'''Status ailments''' affect a [[Pokémon]]'s ability to battle. There are three kinds of status. The first are non-volatile, the second are volatile, and the third lasts while a Pokémon is in battle.

==Non-volatile status==
Non-volatile status ailments are status ailments that will remain until a Pokémon is healed at a [[Pokémon Center]], a specific [[status ailment healing item|curative item]] is used, or, in case of Freeze and Sleep, after a certain amount of turns during the battle. A Pokémon inflicted with a non-volatile status will still be affected after being pulled out of battle (unless they have the {{a|Natural Cure}} ability), and after a battle is over. It is only possible for a Pokémon to be afflicted by one of these at a time. In [[Generation III]] and beyond, certain [[abilities]] will cause or prevent them, as well as benefit from them.

===Burn===
The burn condition reduces a Pokémon's Attack power by half (except for Pokémon with the {{a|Guts}} ability, where this condition raises Attack by 50%). Additionally, at the end of a turn, the Pokémon loses 1/8 its maximum hit points (in [[Generation I]] (or in the case of Pokémon with the ability {{a|Heatproof}}), the Pokémon loses 1/16 of its maximum hit points). {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon and Pokémon with the {{a|Water Veil}} ability cannot be burned. All [[List of moves that burn|moves which can cause burn]] are Fire-type except for {{m|Tri Attack}} and {{m|Fling}} when the [[Flame Orb]] is held.

===Freeze===
[[Image:EP189.png|left|thumb|A frozen {{an|Jigglypuff}}]]
The freeze condition causes a Pokémon to be unable to make a move. Most Fire-type moves used on a frozen Pokémon will remove the freeze status. As of [[Generation II]], freeze has a random, ~10% chance to be cured on its own on the frozen Pokémon's turn. Because of this, the frozen Pokémon may thaw out on the very turn of freezing, however, in Generation I, a frozen Pokémon never thaws. Contrary to popular belief, [[weather conditions#Bright sunlight|sunny weather]] does '''not''' cause a quicker thawing, but it can prevent a Pokémon from freezing in the first place.

{{type2|Ice}} Pokémon cannot be frozen by Ice-type moves except in [[Generation I]]; however, they can be frozen by Tri Attack. A frozen Pokémon can still use the moves {{m|Flame Wheel}}, {{m|Sacred Fire}} and {{m|Flare Blitz}}; when used while frozen, these moves will thaw the user, thaw the opponent if possible, and deal damage to the opponent. All [[List of moves that freeze|moves which cause freezing]] are Ice-type except Tri Attack. It is also the only non-volatile status which has no move that causes it 100% of the time. Also, there is no move that has more than a 10% chance of freezing.

A frozen [[Sky Forme]] {{p|Shaymin}} will revert to its [[Land Forme]].

===Paralysis===
A Pokémon inflicted with paralysis will be unable to attack ("fully paralyzed") a quarter of the time. Additionally, its Speed is reduced to 25% of its previous value (except for Pokémon with the {{a|Quick Feet}} ability, where this condition raises the Speed by 50%). Many [[List of moves that paralyze|moves that cause paralysis]] are of the {{t|Electric}} type.

===Poison===
A poisoned Pokémon loses 1/8 of its maximum hit points every turn (in [[Generation I]], it loses 1/16). {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned. {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned in [[Generation III]] and beyond (In [[Generation II]], a Steel type Pokémon cannot be poisoned, unless {{m|Twineedle}} afflicts it.)

A poisoned Pokémon also loses 1 hit point for every four steps taken while not in battle. In [[Generation IV]], a Pokémon whose HP is reduced to 1 via poison outside of battle will have the poison status removed. All [[List of moves that poison|moves that can poison]] are of the Poison-type except {{m|Twineedle}} and {{m|Secret Power}}.

====Badly poisoned====
The status ailment caused by {{m|Toxic}} and {{m|Poison Fang}}, as well as by {{m|Toxic Spikes}} after it is used twice, is the same as Poison except its damage begins at 1/16 and grows an additional 1/16 every turn, taking 2/16 max hit points the second turn, then 3/16 the third turn, and 4/16 the fourth, and so on. In [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], switching a Pokémon out of active battle would change the badly poisoned condition to normal poison. In [[Generation III]] and beyond, the "badly poisoned" effect will remain even after switching a Pokémon out of battle and back in, but the damage counter will be reset. After a battle is over, the "badly poisoned" status will become a normal poison. All [[List of moves that poison|moves which can badly poison]] are of the Poison-type except {{m|Fling}}, which badly poisons only if {{DL|In-battle effect item|Toxic Orb}} is held.

===Sleep===
[[Image:Sleep.png|right|{{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} sleeping|thumb]]
A Pokémon that is asleep is unable to use any moves (in a situation almost identical to the Freeze condition), except for two special moves which may be used while asleep ({{m|Snore}} and {{m|Sleep Talk}}). Sleep lasts for a randomly chosen duration of 1 to 5 turns (1 to 3 in Stadium). Sleep may be self-induced for 3 turns (inclusive of the initial turn) using the move {{m|Rest}}, which will remove any other non-volatile status ailment. There are currently no [[List of moves that cause sleep|moves that cause sleep]] as well as damage, though {{m|Secret Power}} is capable of doing so if it is used in long grass. In Generation I, a Pokémon that wakes up is not able to attack that same turn, but since Generation II, it is able to attack as soon as the sleep wears off.

==Volatile status==
A volatile status will wear off when a Pokémon is taken out of battle or a battle is over. Many of these will also wear off after a number of turns pass. All of these conditions may be passed to another Pokémon by using {{m|Baton Pass}} unless stated otherwise.

===Attraction===
A Pokémon that is attracted to its foe cannot attack it 50% of the time. A Pokémon can only successfully use {{m|Attract}} on opponents of the opposite gender; genderless Pokémon are both immune to this condition and unable to inflict it on others, except for [[Mew]] (Genderless Pokémon can only be attracted to another genderless Pokémon). Pokémon with the {{A|Oblivious}} ability are also immune to this. Attract status cannot be passed with Baton Pass. Attraction will end as soon as the Pokémon that used it or the Pokémon that it is used on leaves the battle.

===Confusion===
A Pokémon will hurt itself in its confusion 50% of the time. The damage is done as if the Pokémon attacked itself with a 40-power typeless physical attack.

Confusion wears off after 1-4 attacking turns. This means that turns recharging, such as after using {{m|Hyper Beam}}, and turns unable to attack, such as from paralysis, will not lower the remaining number of turns of confusion. However, a sleeping Pokémon may hurt itself in confusion if using a move such as {{m|Snore}} or {{m|Sleep Talk}}.

Multi-turn attacks such as {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Dive}} require that confusion be checked both turns, further reducing the chance of successful attack. Pokémon with the {{a|Own Tempo}} ability are also immune to [[List of moves that confuse|moves that cause confusion]].

Confusion is transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

A [[Ninja Boy]] on [[Route 211]] erroneously states that confusion only wears off if the Pokémon is switched out.

===Curse===
If a {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon uses {{m|Curse}}, the Pokémon it is used on loses ¼ its maximum hit points every turn, and the user immediately loses half of their maximum hit points in exchange. If any non-{{t|Ghost}} type Pokémon uses Curse, their {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} go up one stage, and their {{stat|Speed}} drops one stage. If the victim of a Ghost-type Curse uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, the health-sapping effect is transferred to its replacement. If a Pokémon that has been afflicted by curse is switched out of battle, the effect is lifted. Also, in [[Generation II]], defeating the opponent will prevent the Pokémon it is used on taking damage from Curse on that turn.

===Flinch===
The flinch status is a one-turn status that prevents a Pokémon from attacking. A Pokémon can only flinch if the opponent attacks first. Pokémon with the {{a|Inner Focus}} ability are also immune to this. Most [[List of moves that cause flinching|moves that cause flinching]] are [[physical move]]s.

It is known as cringing in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].

===Foresight/Odor Sleuth/Miracle Eye===
The opponent's evasion modification will not affect the accuracy of a Pokémon that uses {{m|Foresight}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, or {{m|Miracle Eye}}. In addition, a {{t|Normal}}- or {{type2|Fighting}} move used by a Pokémon that has used Foresight or Odor Sleuth will affect {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon, and {{type2|Psychic}} moves used by a Pokémon that has used Miracle Eye will affect {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon.

===Leech Seed===
Each turn, a Pokémon hit by {{m|Leech Seed}} loses 1/8 (1/16 in [[Generation I]]) of its maximum hit points. The opponent is healed by the same amount. {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon are immune to {{m|Leech Seed}}. If a Pokémon affected by Leech Seed uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, Leech Seed is transferred to its replacement, even if it is a Grass-type. Even if the affected Pokémon switches again within the battle, if sent out again, the effects still remain (unless Baton Passed again). If the user of Leech Seed switches out, the health granted by the effect is applied to the new replacement. There is no requirement for the Pokémon to use the move again, or even to know it.

===Mind Reader/Lock-On===
When a Pokémon uses {{m|Mind Reader}} or {{m|Lock-On}}, the next damage-dealing move will hit the opponent without fail, even if the opponent uses a move that offers a turn of invulnerability, such as {{m|Fly}}. This effect can be {{m|Baton Pass}}ed.

===Nightmare===
{{m|Nightmare}} only affects a sleeping Pokémon. The sleeping Pokémon loses ¼ of its maximum hit points every turn. If the sleeping Pokémon awakens, then the nightmare will no longer be in effect. If Baton Pass switches out a Pokémon that is not asleep, then the nightmare will no longer be in effect.

===Perish Song===
After three turns, all Pokémon who heard the {{m|Perish Song}} will faint, excluding Pokémon with the {{a|Soundproof}} ability. Any Pokémon who heard it can avoid the effect of fainting if it is switched out before the 3-turn count finishes. {{m|Baton Pass}} transfers the Perish Song countdown.

===Taunt===
{{m|Taunt}} prevents the Pokémon from using any non-damaging moves. This effect will wear off after two to four turns, or if one switches out. Pokémon using {{m|Substitute}} can still be afflicted with this status ailment.

===Torment===
{{m|Torment}} renders the Pokémon incapable of using the same move twice in a row. If the Pokémon is holding a [[Choice item]], it is forced to use {{m|Struggle}} every second turn.

==Volatile battle status==
===Defense Curl===
Using {{m|Defense Curl}} causes the power of {{m|Rollout}} and {{m|Ice Ball}} to double for the Pokémon. This effect is not transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

===Focus Energy===
When a Pokémon uses {{m|Focus Energy}}, its [[critical hit]] rate increases.

===Mean Look/Spider Web/Block===
A Pokémon trapped by {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, or {{m|Block}} cannot switch until the Pokémon that used the move is defeated or switches. The trapped Pokémon can also escape if it is holding the {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shed Shell}}. If a trapped Pokémon uses Baton Pass, the Pokémon brought out will be trapped instead.

===Minimize===
A Pokémon having used {{m|Minimize}} will take double damage if hit by the move {{m|Stomp}} (though this behavior is not present in [[Generation I]]).

===Mist===
{{m|Mist}} prevents a Pokémon's stats from being lowered by the opponent's attacks. The user may still lower its own stats with moves like {{m|Superpower}}. The move {{m|Defog}} cancels out Mist.

===Substitute===
The Pokémon that uses {{m|Substitute}} loses ¼ of its total HP (rounded down) to make a Substitute which will absorb hits until it "breaks" (damage the Substitute has taken is greater than the HP used to make it). From [[Generation II]] onward, Substitutes block all status ailments and will immediately break if a one-hit knockout attack connects with them. In [[Generation I]], however, a substitute only blocks primary status ailments; attacks like {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Spore}} completely circumvent the Substitute. Substitutes can be transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

===Reflect and Light Screen===
{{m|Reflect}} and {{m|Light Screen}} last for five turns (eight with {{DL|In-battle effect item|Light Clay}}) and heighten the user's entire team's {{stat|Defense}} or {{stat|Special Defense}}, respectively. Either of them can be broken by {{m|Brick Break}} or {{m|Defog}}. Light Screen is very useful in Generation I, as it heightens the user's team's {{stat|Special}}, which governed both the attack ''and'' defense power against [[special moves]], unlike later generations.

Legendary Pokémon

Da Rammo: /* Trivia */

{{Samename|"Legendary Pokémon" species|Arcanine (Pokémon)}}

{{Featured}}
[[Image:Storybook-entei.jpg|thumb|right|290px|An artist's interpretation of {{p|Entei}}, a legendary Pokémon]]
'''Legendary Pokémon''' are a group of extremely rare and powerful [[Pokémon]].

In the Japanese version, there are three distinct terms used to refer to those Pokémon which are collectively called ''legendary'' in English. One, '''伝説のポケモン''' (''densetsu no Pokémon'', lit. ''Pokémon of legend''), refers to those which are featured prominently in legends, such as {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}. The second, '''幻のポケモン''' (''maboroshi no Pokémon'', lit. ''Pokémon of illusions'', translated as ''mirage Pokémon'' in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}), refers to those so rarely seen that some question their very existence, such as {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Lugia}}; an alternative definition restricts it only to Pokémon not available in normal gameplay. The third is '''神話のポケモン''' (''shinwa no Pokémon'', lit. ''Pokémon of myth''), which is a term applied to some of the legendary Pokémon of [[Sinnoh]].

==Characteristics of legendary Pokémon==
In the {{pkmn|games}}, the {{player}} typically has only one chance to capture a legendary Pokémon, but the same species have appeared in more than one game. Their [[gender]]s are usually unknown, with the exception of {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Heatran}} and {{p|Cresselia}}. With the exception of {{p|Phione}} and {{p|Manaphy}}, they will refuse to be [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] by {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, and, for similar reasons, they are often banned from competitions. They are [[stats|statistically]] some of the most powerful Pokémon in the game. They never [[Evolution|evolve]], and many are one-third of a [[legendary trio]].

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, legendary Pokémon are generally held in higher regard than they are in the games, nearing a god-like reverence. They appear only to special {{pkmn|Trainer}}s (usually the case of [[Ash Ketchum]]). Very few people have actually seen legendary Pokémon. Because of their rarity, they are sought after by trainers and collectors, especially by [[villainous team]]s like [[Team Rocket]].

It has been predicted (and demonstrated) that the capture of certain legendary Pokémon can lead to great catastrophe, as they often hold a pivotal role in nature. But some speculate that if a trainer were to "play by the rules," the results would not be as chaotic. {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}}, for example, befriended and fought official {{pkmn|battle}}s with an {{p|Articuno}} and its power never exceeded him. It should be noted, however, that Noland is a very skilled trainer.

As seen with {{p|Lugia}}, some breed in the wild; as seen with {{p|Celebi}}, they are neither immortal nor invincible; and only very few (notably {{p|Mewtwo}} and {{p|Arceus}}) are unique.

==List of legendary Pokémon==
There are 35 Pokémon considered to be legendary Pokémon, and there are several more with certain characteristics of legendary Pokémon.

===[[Generation I]]===
The legendary Pokémon of Generation I can be broken into two groups: the Legendary Birds and the Mew-based legendary Pokémon.

====Legendary birds====
[[Image:Legend-birds-slab.jpg|thumb|right|270px|An ancient slab of the Legendary Birds and an Arcanine seen in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''. Ash mistakenly identified {{p|Articuno|the blue one}} as {{p|Ho-Oh}}.]]
There are three [[legendary birds]], also referred to as winged mirages. The Legendary Birds are each based off a mythical bird.

As shown in the [[The Power of One|second movie]], should the three birds be disturbed and turned against each other, they will fight over territory, and, left unabated, their battles will ultimately cause the end of the world. They represent nature's balance and are tied to {{p|Lugia}}. They are strongly linked to the elements {{t|fire}}, {{t|ice}}, and {{t|electric|lightning}}— forces that when combined are believed to yield both the origin of life and the cause of apocalyptic weather disasters. Some fans believe that this scenario applies only to the three birds found near [[Shamouti Island]] in the [[Orange Archipelago]], and that this characteristic does not extend to their species.

In [[Pokémon Snap]], it was shown that the legendary birds could breed, as the player could hatch them from eggs around [[Pokémon Island]] by introducing the eggs to their corresponding element.
* '''{{MS|144}} {{p|Articuno}}''' is the legendary bird of {{t|ice}}. It can be found on [[Seafoam Islands]] in the Generation I games and their [[Generation III]] [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|remakes]]. In addition to the one in the Orange Islands, a second one was seen in the [[Johto]] region in the episode ''[[EP189|Freeze Frame]]''. A third one was seen in the [[Kanto]] region, with {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'' and ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]''.
* '''{{MS|145}} {{p|Zapdos}}''' is the legendary bird of {{t|Electric|thunder}}. It can be found at the [[Power Plant]] in the Generation I games and their Generation III remakes. In addition to the one in the Orange Islands, a second one was seen in the Johto region in the episode ''[[EP242|As Clear As Crystal]]'', and a third was seen in the credits of Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the sea, flying Jack Walker after he captured it with his Capture Styler. A fourth one that was spotted by [[Team Rocket]] in Sinnoh in ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]''.
* '''{{MS|146}} {{p|Moltres}}''' is the legendary bird of {{t|fire}}. It can be found on {{ka|Victory Road}} in the Generation I games, and in the [[Sevii Islands]] in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen. The spirit of Moltres represents the [[Indigo League]] and its flame came alive in the episode ''[[EP074|All Fired Up]]''. It also appeared to [[Ritchie]] at [[Sevii Islands]] in the anime.

====Mew and Mewtwo====
[[Image:Mewtwo_mew.jpg|thumb|left|Mewtwo and Mew]]
* '''{{MS|151}} {{p|Mew}}''' is the {{t|Psychic}} feline Pokémon of ancient legend. It is not obtainable by normal means in any game; however, a [[Mew glitch|glitch]] allows the player to battle and capture Mew in [[Generation I]]. In {{game|Emerald}}, a Nintendo event gave out the Old Sea Map that would take the player to [[Faraway Island]], where Mew could be caught. In [[My Pokémon Ranch]], it is possible to obtain a Mew after depositing 999 Pokémon onto your ranch. It is said to be able to live forever. The DNA of all Pokémon can be traced back to Mew, and thus it represents the origin of life. The bubbly Mew was first seen in the [[Mewtwo Strikes Back|first movie]], and later in the special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''. Another is seen in the [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew|eighth movie]]. A mirage Mew was seen in the Master of Mirage Pokémon.
* '''{{MS|150}} {{p|Mewtwo}}''' is a genetically altered, unique clone of Mew. It can be found in the [[Cerulean Cave]] in the Generation I games and their remakes. It was statistically the most powerful Pokémon until Generation II. It is also one of the most intelligent, and can communicate freely with humans using telepathy. It is the main character of the first movie, and the ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'' and ''[[The Birth of Mewtwo]]'' specials. After the events of Mewtwo Returns, it is portrayed as taking the cover of night and living amongst humans in big cities.

===[[Generation II]]===
Generation II featured the advent of three new groups of legendary Pokémon, consisting of a total of six.
====Legendary beasts====
[[Image:Legendary-beasts.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Raikou, Entei, and Suicune.]]
The [[legendary beasts]] have variously been referred to as legendary dogs or cats, but beasts is the accepted neutral title. These speedy, powerful creatures were created by Ho-Oh after the burning of [[Brass Tower]]. Because they are unable to restrain their extreme power, they race headlong around the land. They can be found racing around the Johto region in the Generation II games. One can also be found roaming Kanto, after the player gets the National Pokédex, in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, depending on the [[starter Pokémon]] the user chooses at the beginning of the game. In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], it is possible to snag all three legendary beasts.
* '''{{MS|243}} {{p|Raikou}}''' is the embodiment of thunder. It appears in Kanto in FireRed and LeafGreen if the player started off with {{P|Squirtle}}. Raikou was twice seen in the Johto region. It was briefly seen in the episode ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]'', and also in the ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' special.
* '''{{MS|244}} {{p|Entei}}''' is the embodiment of volcanoes. According to legend, one is born every time a new volcano appears. It appears in Kanto in FireRed and LeafGreen if the player started off with {{P|Bulbasaur}}. An Entei was seen in the Johto region, in the episode ''[[EP259|Entei at Your Own Risk]]''. A telepathic Entei was featured in the [[Spell of the Unown|third movie]], but it was only a manifestation of [[Molly Hale]]'s imagination, created by the {{p|Unown}}. An Entei is formed from a statue in Fiore when [[Solana]] and [[Lunick]] reach the Jungle Relic. It comes to life when they complete {{p|Charizard|the last challenge}} by mistake.
* '''{{MS|245}} {{p|Suicune}}''' is the embodiment of the North Wind. It is closely tied with Ho-Oh and the Unown. It is the Pokémon sought by [[Eusine]] in {{game|Crystal}}, and is released upon the completion of the [[Brass Tower|Burned Tower]] storyline in the Generation II games. It appears in Kanto in FireRed and LeafGreen if the player started off with {{P|Charmander}}. Ash encountered one at the beginning of the [[Johto]] story arc, in ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'Dile]]'', again in ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll]]'', and made a [[Suicune (Pokémon 4Ever)|vital appearance]] in the [[Pokémon 4Ever|fourth movie]]. Ash also encountered a Suicune in [[Sinnoh]], near the [[Valley Windworks]] in ''[[DP028|Drifloon On the Wind!'']].

====Lugia and Ho-Oh====
[[Image:Lugia_and_ho-oh.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Lugia and Ho-Oh.]]These two additional birds of legend are thought to be closely related, although they are also polar opposites. Ho-Oh is based on the Chinese phoenix, or {{wp|Fènghuáng}} and Lugia on the Japanese sea-kami {{wp|Ryūjin}}.
* '''{{MS|250}} {{p|Ho-Oh}}''' is the Guardian of the Skies. This Pokémon is represented by the sun, the sky, rainbows, the color gold, and awakening. It is said to glow in seven colors and see into the future. It resides at the top of the Tin Tower in the Generation II games. In Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and {{v2|Emerald}}, Ho-Oh is found atop [[Navel Rock]]. Ho-Oh is often seen at the beginning of a new journey, which happened to Ash three times. The spirit of Ho-Oh represents the [[Johto League]]. Ho-Oh is the guardian of the Legendary Beasts, and it is especially close to Suicune.
* '''{{MS|249}} {{p|Lugia}}''' is the Guardian of the Sea. It is represented by the moon, the sea, storms, the color silver, and slumber. Lugia can be found in [[Whirl Islands]] in the Generation II games. In Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald, Lugia is found beneath Navel Rock. A [[Shadow Lugia]] resides in the [[Orre]] region in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. Lugia protects the balance of nature, and is the only creature that can pacify the battling Legendary Birds. One was seen in the second movie. Two more, a parent and a child, were seen near [[Silver Rock Isle]] at the beginning of the [[Master Quest|Whirl Cup]] arc of the anime. Lugia is the guardian of the Legendary Birds. In the [[The Power of One|second movie]], [[Lawrence III]] mistook Lugia for the Beast of the Sea, which is actually a chaotic underwater current caused when the Legendary Birds are disturbed.

====Celebi====
[[Image:Celebi_Shrine.png|thumb|right|100px|Celebi on its shrine in [[Ilex Forest]].]]
Although it has no relation to Mew, Celebi was dubbed the "New Mew" because of its similar size, shape, stats, and [[National Pokédex]] number. Because of this, it is commonly listed with Mew (and later {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Phione}}, and {{p|Manaphy}}) in lists of legendary Pokémon.
* '''{{MS|251}} {{p|Celebi}}''' is a forest guardian Pokémon that can travel through time. It is the star of the fourth movie and was obtainable in the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal via the now-discontinued [[Pokémon Mobile System]] service. On the Japanese Bonus Disk for [[Pokémon Colosseum]], Celebi was a direct download to [[Generation III]] cartridges. During ''Pokémon 10th Anniversary: [[Journey Across America]]'', Celebi was downloadable on US Generation III cartridges. Celebi, when obtainable, is found in [[Ilex Forest]] by bringing the [[GS Ball]] to the [[Ilex Forest Shrine|Forest Shrine]].{{Clear-both}}

===[[Generation III]]===
The Generation III games feature a total of 10 new legendaries.
====Legendary golems====
[[Image:3_regis.jpg|thumb|left|Booster art of Regice, Registeel, and Regirock from {{TCG|EX Hidden Legends}}.]]
The legendary {{wp|golem}}-like Regis were featured in the [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew|eighth movie]] as the protectors of the Tree of Beginning, but the true story of their history remains a mystery. They have a strong connection to the fourth Regi and their keeper, '''{{p|Regigigas}}'''.
* '''{{MS|377}} {{p|Regirock}}''' is found in the [[Desert Ruins]] in the [[Generation III]] games when the required puzzle is solved. Its location in {{game|Platinum}} is the [[Rock Peak Ruins]].
* '''{{MS|378}} {{p|Regice}}''' is found in the [[Island Cave]] in the Generation III games after solving a puzzle. Its location in Pokémon Platinum is the [[Iceberg Ruins]].
* '''{{MS|379}} {{p|Registeel}}''' is found in the [[Ancient Tomb]] in the Generation III games, and, like the other two Regis, a puzzle must be solved before it can be reached. Its location in Pokémon Platinum is the [[Iron Ruins]].

====Eon Pokémon====
[[Image:LatiosLatiasStatues.jpg|thumb|right|Statues of Latios and Latias in [[Alto Mare]]]]
Latios and Latias (sometimes referred to, collectively, as [[Lati@s]]) are twin {{t|Dragon}}s (one male, one female, respectively) featured in the [[Pokémon Heroes|fifth movie]]. Both can take the shape of humans. According to legend, they guard the water city of [[Alto Mare]], and are revered as gods. They have a strong connection with the [[Soul Dew]].
* '''{{MS|380}} {{p|Latias}}''', the female twin, is found in the wild after defeating the Elite Four in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Sapphire}}. She changes routes whenever the player does, and is considered as rare as the Legendary Beasts in Generation II. She can also be obtained in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Ruby}} by using the [[Eon Ticket]] obtained from [[Nintendo Power]]. In {{game|Emerald}}, when the player's mom asks about a TV program after the Elite Four, she appears as in Sapphire if the player chooses Red, and as in Ruby if the player chooses Blue.
* '''{{MS|381}} {{p|Latios}}''', the male twin, is found in the wild after defeating the Elite Four in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby}}. He is considered as rare as the Legendary Beasts in Generation II due to the similar route-changing activities that he shares with them and Latias. He can also be obtained in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Sapphire}} by using the Eon Ticket obtained from Nintendo Power. In {{game|Emerald}}, when the player's mom asks about a TV program after the Elite Four, he appears as in Ruby if the player chooses Blue, and as in Sapphire if the player chooses Red.

====Super-ancient Pokémon====
[[Image:GenIII_Battle.jpg|250px|thumb|right|A depiction of the cataclysmic battle between Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza]]
The [[Weather conditions|weather]]-related legendary Pokémon represent the balance of nature and play a major role in the storyline of the [[Hoenn]]-based Generation III games. It is said that, at the beginning of time, Groudon raised lands and expanded continents as Kyogre expanded the seas. These Pokémon took to sleep after a cataclysmic battle, soothed by Rayquaza.

They are based on the {{wp|behemoth}}, {{wp|leviathan}}, and {{wp|ziz}} of Hebrew legend.
* '''{{MS|382}} {{p|Kyogre}}''' is the beast who has the power to expand the sea by bringing forth constant rain. It is found in the [[Cave of Origin]] in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Sapphire}}, and [[Marine Cave]] in {{game|Emerald}}. It is the object of [[Team Aqua]]'s reverence. It was seen in the [[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea|ninth movie]].
* '''{{MS|383}} {{p|Groudon}}''' is the beast who has the power to expand the land by scattering rain clouds and making water evaporate with light and heat. It is found in the Cave of Origin in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby}}, and [[Terra Cave]] in {{game|Emerald}}. It is the object of [[Team Magma]]'s reverence. It was seen in the [[Jirachi: Wish Maker|sixth movie]].
* '''{{MS|384}} {{p|Rayquaza}}''' is the legendary dragon found in the [[Sky Pillar]] in the Generation III games. It is the protector of the skies. It was seen in the [[Destiny Deoxys|seventh movie]].

====Other legendary Pokémon====
* '''{{MS|385}} {{p|Jirachi}}''' is the legendary wish-granting Pokémon who was available from [[Pokémon Colosseum]]'s bonus disk in North America and available within [[Pokémon Channel]] in the UK, Europe and Australia (PAL Encoded Regions). It is likened to Mew and Celebi. Jirachi is the star of the [[Jirachi: Wish Maker|sixth movie]].
* '''{{MS|386}}/{{MS|386A}}/{{MS|386D}}/{{MS|386S}} {{p|Deoxys}}''' is a Pokémon with strange alien and virus-like characteristics. It changes its form depending on the game version in which it is found. The [[Aurora Ticket]] used to obtain Deoxys has been given out in North America at the New York {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store}} and 2004's [[Pokémon Rocks America]] events. Two different Deoxys were featured in the seventh movie, while a third was featured in ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis!]]''.

===[[Generation IV]]===
The Generation IV games feature a total of 14 legendary Pokémon, the most of any generation.
{{Clear-both}}
====Mirage Pokémon====
[[Image:LakeTrio.gif|thumb|right|Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf together]]
{{wp|Fairy}}-like creatures that each dwell in a trio of three lakes. Birthed from Arceus, each represents a different aspect of the human mind.
* '''{{MS|480}} {{p|Uxie}}''' embodies knowledge.
* '''{{MS|481}} {{p|Mesprit}}''' embodies emotion.
* '''{{MS|482}} {{p|Azelf}}''' embodies will.

All three are considered unique. Uxie is located in the [[Lake Acuity|Acuity Cavern]], Mesprit will [[Roaming Pokémon|roam]] Sinnoh after the first encounter in the [[Lake Verity|Verity Cavern]], and Azelf is found in the [[Lake Valor|Valor Cavern]].

====Legendary dragons====
[[Image:Dragontrio.PNG|180px|thumb|right|Dialga, Palkia and Giratina poster from {{game|Platinum}}]]
The three Pokémon Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina are the mascots for Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum and have the ability to warp the fabric of reality. Birthed from Arceus, they battle for all of eternity in a different dimension. Dialga and Palkia were featured in the [[The Rise of Darkrai|tenth movie]], and Giratina was featured in the [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|eleventh movie]]. All three are expected to have their final confrontation in the [[Arceus: To a Conquering Spacetime|twelfth movie]].
* '''{{MS|483}} {{p|Dialga}}''' controls time.
* '''{{MS|484}} {{p|Palkia}}''' controls space.
* '''{{MS|487O}}/{{MS|487}} {{p|Giratina}}''' controls dimensions.
Depending on the game version, [[Team Galactic]] will try to gain control of one using the power of the lake trio. Their goal is to use their power to destroy the {{pkmn|universe}} and rebuild it with [[Cyrus]] as a god.

====Lunar Pokémon====
[[Image:Darkrai-Newmoon_Island.png|thumb|left|Darkrai in Newmoon Island]]
Based on the [[wp:crescent moon|crescent]] and [[wp:new moon|new]] {{wp|moon}}, these two Pokémon seem to be complementary of one another. Cresselia can cure the permanent nightmares that Darkrai causes people to suffer.
* '''{{MS|488}} {{p|Cresselia}}''' resembles the crescent moon. It seems to bring peaceful dreams and is able to heal emotional scars. It can be found {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Sinnoh]] after it is first encountered on [[Fullmoon Island]].
* '''{{MS|491}} {{p|Darkrai}}''' can induce sleep and control dreams. It is active during nights with no moon, and can cause its victims to thrash about with terrible nightmares. It can be found on [[Newmoon Island]] if the {{player}} has a [[Member's Card]]. A Darkrai was featured in the [[The Rise of Darkrai|tenth movie]], along with one of each of the legendary dragons (except {{p|Giratina}}), while a second made its anime debut in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]''.

====Other Legendary Pokémon====

* '''{{MS|490}} {{p|Manaphy}}''' is referred to as the "Prince of the Sea." It must be hatched from an {{pkmn|egg}} and has the power to swap the hearts of people and Pokémon, putting them into different bodies. It was featured in the [[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea|ninth movie]].
* '''{{MS|489}} {{p|Phione}}''' is the result of breeding Manaphy (or another Phione) with {{p|Ditto}}, and is the only legendary to be obtained in such a manner. Until recently, its status was heavily debated; however, [[Pokémon.com]] revealed that Phione is a legendary.
* '''{{MS|486}} {{p|Regigigas}}''' is the Normal-type Regi that can be found only when the [[Legendary golems|three other Regis]] are reunited. It is said that they moved the continents into place by pulling them on a rope. A Regigigas was awakened in the [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|eleventh movie]]. In {{game|Platinum}} it is stated that it had shaped itself from an iceberg, rocks, and magma.
* '''{{MS|485}} {{p|Heatran}}''' is a dual-type Fire/Steel Pokémon that can be found in [[Stark Mountain]]. It was born from the flames of a volcano when Dialga, Palkia and their relatives first created the universe. The lava and magma pooled together to become the first living Heatran, and later, [[Stark Mountain]], their home. It is also the first Legendary Pokémon that can be either male or female. A Heatran will appear in the [[Arceus: To a Conquering Spacetime|twelfth movie]].
[[File:Seabreak path.png|thumb|right|Shaymin running down [[Seabreak Path]]]]
* '''{{MS|492}}/{{MS|492S}} {{p|Shaymin}}''' is the Gratitude Pokémon that curls up in flower-beds and often goes unnoticed. It has the ability to instantly purify an area of all pollutants and transform it into a flowery field. It can transform into another Forme. Shaymin and its Sky Forme were featured in the [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|eleventh movie]]. Many Shaymin appeared in the film, confirming that the Shaymin species is more common than that of other legendary species. If the player has [[Oak's Letter]], [[Flower Paradise]], where Shaymin is located, can be accessed after their thanks are expressed at the white rock on [[Route 224]].
* '''{{MS|493}} {{p|Arceus}}''' is the creation Pokémon said to have been born from an egg in the nothingness of space. It created matter (time and space) and spirit (knowledge, emotion and will) before falling into eternal slumber. It can be awoken by playing the [[Azure Flute]] at the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]]. Arceus appears in the [[Arceus: To a Conquering Spacetime|twelfth movie]].

===Other Pokémon of myth===
* '''{{p|Arcanine}}''''s [[species]] classification is ''Legendary''.
* The fierceness and destructive nature of '''{{p|Gyarados}}''' is described in the [[Pokédex]] as a thing of legend as is the seemingly complementary beauty and calming ability of '''{{p|Milotic}}'''.
* When facing '''{{p|Rotom}}''', the music is the same as when facing a legendary Pokémon. It, along with the legendary Giratina and Shaymin, has also received new forms in {{v2|Platinum}}.
* '''{{p|Unown}}''' are a mysterious species of Pokémon based on the Latin alphabet. [[Professor Oak]] referred to them as Legendary, probably because they were featured heavily in ancient myths and legends and because they can display large amounts of otherworldly power in swarms. Also, like legendaries, they cannot breed. In the anime, they appear to live in the [[Unown dimension|same dimension]] as Dialga and Palkia.
* The ''[[pseudo-legendary]]'', Dragon-like Pokémon '''{{p|Dragonite}}''', '''{{p|Tyranitar}}''', '''{{p|Salamence}}''' are usually placed within the "Legendary" section of a regional Pokédex, and are so extraordinarily rare and powerful that they are often mentioned in lists of Legendary Pokémon. '''{{p|Metagross}}''' and '''{{p|Garchomp}}''' are also considered "pseudo-legendary", due to their stats, and Metagross is even placed within the same section of the Hoenn Pokédex as Salamence.
* Like Arcanine, '''{{p|Ninetales}}''' is considered a Legendary Pokémon due to it being elusive, incredibly long-lived, and possessing the ability to cast powerful curses against anyone that touches its tails. This is specifically mentioned in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].
* '''{{p|Lucario}}''' and its master [[Sir Aaron]] were forever revered because of their help pacifying an ancient battle, as seen in the eighth movie. In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, a Lucario was regarded as a legendary Rescue Team Leader in the distant past, and "Lucario Rank" is the highest attainable team rank in the game. Also, in the opening of the Diamond and Pearl theme song, {{p|Lucario}} appears beside {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.
* '''{{p|Togepi}}''' and its evolutions are incredibly rare and bring joy wherever they go. In ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'' Togepi is referred to as a savior.
* The presence of '''{{p|Absol}}''' is a fabled warning of impending disaster.
* '''{{p|Spiritomb}}''' was formed by 108 spirits and is bound to a fissure in an [[Odd Keystone]] because of misdeeds 500 years ago.

==Trivia==
* In the games, there appears to only be one of every legendary Pokémon, but in the {{pkmn|anime}}, there is more than one of most legendaries.
* Battle themes are shared by related legendaries, while many [[legendary trios]] have a theme specific to themselves. Specifically:
**{{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} feature a theme specific to themselves in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, a remix of the standard wild Pokémon encounter in Kanto, as a reference to the fact that in [[Generation I]], there was only one battle theme for wild Pokémon, legendary or not. When they are encountered in {{game|Platinum}}, they use the standard wild legendary battle theme.
**{{p|Mewtwo}} features a theme specific to itself in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, another remix of the standard wild Pokémon encounter in Kanto.
**{{p|Mew}} features a theme specific to itself in {{game|Emerald}}, and despite being found in the wild ''only'' in a [[Hoenn]]-based game, it is yet another remix of the standard wild Pokémon encounter in Kanto.
**In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}} featured the standard wild Pokémon encounter music of [[Johto]], however, in {{game|Crystal}}, this was changed to a theme specific to themselves. When they are encountered in FireRed and LeafGreen, they use the standard legendary battle theme shared with the legendary birds.
**{{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and {{p|Celebi}} have only featured the standard wild Pokémon battle music when they are encountered.
**{{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} feature a theme specific to themselves in [[Generation III]] when they are encountered. It was tuned up and reused when they are encountered in {{game|Platinum}}.
**{{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} have only featured the standard wild Pokémon battle music when they are encountered.
**{{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}} have a theme specific to themselves when encountered in [[Generation III]].
**{{p|Deoxys}} features a battle theme specific to itself when battled on [[Birth Island]], making it the first to share its theme with no other Pokémon.
**{{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, and {{p|Phione}} have never appeared in battle as a wild Pokémon aside from [[cheating]].
**{{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}} feature a theme specific to themselves in [[Generation IV]] when they are encountered.
**{{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} feature a theme specific to themselves in [[Generation IV]] when they are encountered.
**{{p|Giratina}} features a theme specific to itself in {{game|Platinum}} when it is encountered.
**{{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} feature a theme specific to themselves in [[Generation IV]] when they are encountered. This theme is, strangely, shared with the non-legendary {{p|Rotom}}, and likewise is shared with {{p|Giratina}} in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
**{{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Cresselia}} use the standard wild Pokémon battle music when they are encountered.
**{{p|Arceus}}, perhaps fittingly, has its own theme shared with no others as well.
*Every generation has had at least one {{t|Psychic}}- and {{type2|Flying}} legendary (though in [[Generation IV]], {{p|Shaymin}} is only able to be part-Flying during the daytime, and {{p|Arceus}} is only Flying-type whilst holding the [[Sky Plate]]).

'''Bulbasaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギダネ''' ''Fushigidane'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[evolve]]s into {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at [[level]] 16, who evolves into {{p|Venusaur}} starting at level 32.

Along with {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, it is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] the player can choose to start with at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]] and is the first Pokémon numerically in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]], the [[National Pokédex]], and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Bulbasaur is a reptilian creature resembling a toad or dinosaur. It is blue-green with dark spots on much of its body. It should also be noted that, as it evolves, the Bulbasaur line bears a striking resemblance to ancient Therapsids. Its most notable feature, though, is the bulb on its back, which grows from a seed planted on its back when it is born. The bulb is similar to {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Parasect}}'s tochukaso mushrooms which are also planted at birth. However, Bulbasaur and its bulb share a symbiotic relationship rather than a parasitic one. The bulb has numerous seeds in it.

Bulbasaur usually walk around on four legs, but in this stage they also have the ability to rise up on their hind legs. However, in its later stages, it can't since the bulb on its back grows too heavy.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Bulbasaur have a variety of Grass-type abilities granted to it by the bulb growing on its back. Powders, scents, petals, and seeds can come from the very tip of the bulb, and vines and leaves can come from the base. By manipulating these into moves like {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Vine Whip}}, {{m|Razor Leaf}}, {{m|Petal Dance}}, and {{m|Sweet Scent}}, Bulbasaur have quite an arsenal at their disposal with the bulb.

The bulb also absorbs sunlight. The sunlight can be turned into health through {{m|Synthesis}} or launched at the opponent as a powerful {{m|SolarBeam}}.

===Behavior===
Most Bulbasaur are domestic Pokémon, raised to be distributed as starters by [[Professor Oak]]. As such, they are regarded as well-behaved Pokémon. They are often considered the easiest Pokémon to start with in [[Kanto]] since they are strong, not likely to misbehave, and have a type advantage over the first two Kanto [[Gym Leader]]s.

They can often have a strong loyalty streak. In ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]'', a Bulbasaur was abandoned by its {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the sewers, where it lived for many years. When it finally returned to the surface, it was not upset about being abandoned by its trainer. In fact, it was simply glad to see him again.

In ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]'', it is shown that once a year, large groups of Bulbasaur gather together in a hidden garden and evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}.

Bulbasaur can also be found lying in the sun during the day for photosynthesis. They mainly do this during times of scarcity of food.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
Bulbasaur are scarce in the wild. Sometimes they can be found in secret places such as gardens, plains near large sources of fresh water, or hiding in the forest in hollow logs, but overall they are found far more often in the ownership of Trainers.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Much like most Pokémon, Bulbasaur appears to be an {{wp|omnivore}}. However, in times of scarcity, it does not need to eat much food, since the bulb on its back can store energy from the sun.

==In the anime==
[[Image:EP010.png|thumb|right|[[Ash's Bulbasaur]] protecting a [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] {{p|Oddish}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]====
Ash's Bulbasaur first debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]]. Though initially wary of {{Ash}}, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a battle. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was captured. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were captured in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's party until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.

====[[May's Venusaur|May's Bulbasaur]]====
[[Image:Maybulbasaurvinewhip.jpg|thumb|right|[[May's Bulbasaur]] using {{m|Vine Whip}}]]
Much later on, when Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] region, his companion {{an|May}} captured her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria]]''. It remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to compete in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May too left her Bulbasaur at Professor Oak's lab to learn from Ash's while she and Ash's group traveled throughout the {{ho|Battle Frontier}} in Kanto. May retrieved it during her travels in [[Johto]], where it evolved all the way into a Venusaur.

====Other====
A Bulbasaur that used to belong to the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] appeared in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]''. In his childhood, the mayor abandoned his Bulbasaur and sent it into the sewers when it wouldn't evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}. Aided by [[Misty]] and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had gone missing. After defeating the arrogant mayor and his personal SWAT team, Ash and company left the Bulbasaur, which had grown rather large in its time in the sewers, with [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[H014|Journey to the Starting Line]]'', {{ka|Gilbert}}, the son of the mayor of [[Pallet Town]], was supposed to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with one of the three Kanto Starter Pokémon, but they were scared off by [[Ash's Tauros]]. [[Professor Oak]], {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}} and Gilbert set out to find them. The Bulbasaur was the last one to be found and it was stuck in a tree that was surrounded by a group of {{p|Primeape}}. In the end, Bulbasaur was the one that Gilbert decided to start with.

===Minor appearances===
Bulbasaur was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his second choice of a starter, after {{p|Squirtle}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, it was too late, as an unnamed Trainer who started the same day had already taken it.

A Bulbasaur was used by one of the students of the {{g|Trainer's School}} in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure]], [[Pistachio]] has a Bulbasaur named [[Danerina]]. She has a crush on him and is extremely jealous whenever she sees him talking to other females.

Ash's Bulbasaur is shown in several chapters of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]].

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
In the {{Special|Red, Green & Blue chapter}}, {{Special|Red}} receives a [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] from [[Professor Oak]] in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]'' after helping capture all the Pokémon he accidentally set free. Bulbasaur has since evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}}, and then to {{p|Venusaur}}. It has also been shown in the manga that Bulbasaur also has the ability to suck in air through its bulb (as seen in chapter 14 where it sucked up the mist in the ghost tower as well as the {{p|Gastly}} that made it).

==In the TCG==
{{main|Bulbasaur (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
Bulbasaur only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
Bulbasaur is a cute Pokémon born with a large seed firmly affixed to its back; the seed grows in size as the Pokémon does. Along with Squirtle and Charmander, Bulbasaur is one of the three Pokémon available at the beginning of Pokémon Red and Blue. It evolves into Ivysaur.

==Trivia==
*Bulbasaur is the mascot of [[Bulbagarden|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]].
*Bulbasaur's evolution family is the only starter Pokémon evolution family to have each member appear at least once in the Super Smash Bros. series.
*In the initial games, Bulbasaur's body was light green in color. It was changed to blue-green in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}.
**However, it is still light green in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] series.
*Bulbasaur is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] order. By default, this also makes it the first {{type2|Grass}}, {{type2|Poison}}, dual-type Pokémon and [[Starter Pokémon]] in National Pokédex order.
**Since in [[Generation I]], the {{type2|Bug}} was super-effective against {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, Bulbasaur was also the first Pokémon with a double weakness (to {{t|Bug}}). This "honour" has since been taken by {{p|Charizard}}.
*Bulbasaur and its evolutions share the same [[species]] name as {{p|Sunkern}}. They are all known as the Seed Pokémon.
*Bulbasaur's number in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] is the same: 001. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising thirteen Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one Pokédex-like listing.
*Bulbasaur is the only dual-typed starter Pokémon, with {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Poison}}, in its basic form, even in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].
*Though Bulbasaur have no gender differences in the games, May's Bulbasaur has little hearts on its head while Ash's does not, and has been confirmed female after its evolution.
**It's also one of the three Pokémon that appeared in the anime with a heart-shaped spot, the others being {{p|Spinda}} and {{p|Wooper}}.
*Bulbasaur is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Petal Dance}} by {{pkmn|breeding}}, while {{p|Venusaur|its final evolution}} learns it by leveling up.
*In Kanto, Bulbasaur has more advantages against Gym Leaders than the other starters. Its {{type2|Grass}} attacks make it effective against Pokémon in the Pewter City, Cerulean City, and Viridian City Gyms. Its {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Poison}} types also make it resistant to the Vermilion City and Celadon City Gyms' types. It only has weaknesses to the Cinnabar Island and Saffron City Gyms.
*Bulbasaur and Pikachu were on {{Ash}}'s team in the anime for the longest continuous period of time. Their in-game cries are variations of each other.

===Origin===
Bulbasaur appears to be based on some form of ''{{wp|Dicynodont}}'', mammal-like reptiles from the {{wp|Permian}}. Its bulb resembles that of a {{wp|lily}}.

====Name origin====
Bulbasaur's name is a combination of the words ''{{wp|bulb}}'' and ''saur'', which is {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} for ''lizard''. Its Japanese name literally means ''it's strange, isn't it?'', and is a pun on, 不思議種 ''fushigidane'', strange seed.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Bisasam - Derived from ''Bisamratte'' ({{wp|muskrat}}) and ''Samen'' ({{wp|seed}}).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Bulbizarre - A combination of ''bulb'' and ''bizarre'', reflected by the Japanese name, a pun on "Isn't it strange?".
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 이상해씨 ''Isanghaessi'' - Translates to ''Strange Seed''.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 妙蛙種子 ''Mìao Wa Chóng Zí'' - "Weird frog seed".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 奇異種子 ''Qí Yì Chóng Zí'' - "Unusual seed".
*Brazilian Portuguese (animé only): Bulbassauro - Adaptation of ''Bulbasaur''.

'''Bulbasaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギダネ''' ''Fushigidane'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[evolve]]s into {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at [[level]] 16, who evolves into {{p|Venusaur}} starting at level 32.

Along with {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, it is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] the player can choose to start with at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]] and is the first Pokémon numerically in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]], the [[National Pokédex]], and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Bulbasaur is a reptilian creature resembling a toad or dinosaur. It is blue-green with dark spots on much of its body. It should also be noted that, as it evolves, the Bulbasaur line bears a striking resemblance to ancient Therapsids. Its most notable feature, though, is the bulb on its back, which grows from a seed planted on its back when it is born. The bulb is similar to {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Parasect}}'s tochukaso mushrooms which are also planted at birth. However, Bulbasaur and its bulb share a symbiotic relationship rather than a parasitic one. The bulb has numerous seeds in it.

Bulbasaur usually walk around on four legs, but in this stage they also have the ability to rise up on their hind legs. However, in its later stages, it can't since the bulb on its back grows too heavy.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Bulbasaur have a variety of Grass-type abilities granted to it by the bulb growing on its back. Powders, scents, petals, and seeds can come from the very tip of the bulb, and vines and leaves can come from the base. By manipulating these into moves like {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Vine Whip}}, {{m|Razor Leaf}}, {{m|Petal Dance}}, and {{m|Sweet Scent}}, Bulbasaur have quite an arsenal at their disposal with the bulb.

The bulb also absorbs sunlight. The sunlight can be turned into health through {{m|Synthesis}} or launched at the opponent as a powerful {{m|SolarBeam}}.

===Behavior===
Most Bulbasaur are domestic Pokémon, raised to be distributed as starters by [[Professor Oak]]. As such, they are regarded as well-behaved Pokémon. They are often considered the easiest Pokémon to start with in [[Kanto]] since they are strong, not likely to misbehave, and have a type advantage over the first two Kanto [[Gym Leader]]s.

They can often have a strong loyalty streak. In ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]'', a Bulbasaur was abandoned by its {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the sewers, where it lived for many years. When it finally returned to the surface, it was not upset about being abandoned by its trainer. In fact, it was simply glad to see him again.

In ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]'', it is shown that once a year, large groups of Bulbasaur gather together in a hidden garden and evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}.

Bulbasaur can also be found lying in the sun during the day for photosynthesis. They mainly do this during times of scarcity of food.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
Bulbasaur are scarce in the wild. Sometimes they can be found in secret places such as gardens, plains near large sources of fresh water, or hiding in the forest in hollow logs, but overall they are found far more often in the ownership of Trainers.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Much like most Pokémon, Bulbasaur appears to be an {{wp|omnivore}}. However, in times of scarcity, it does not need to eat much food, since the bulb on its back can store energy from the sun.

==In the anime==
[[Image:EP010.png|thumb|right|[[Ash's Bulbasaur]] protecting a [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] {{p|Oddish}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]====
Ash's Bulbasaur first debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]]. Though initially wary of {{Ash}}, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a battle. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was captured. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were captured in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's party until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.

====[[May's Venusaur|May's Bulbasaur]]====
[[Image:Maybulbasaurvinewhip.jpg|thumb|right|[[May's Bulbasaur]] using {{m|Vine Whip}}]]
Much later on, when Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] region, his companion {{an|May}} captured her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria]]''. It remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to compete in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May too left her Bulbasaur at Professor Oak's lab to learn from Ash's while she and Ash's group traveled throughout the {{ho|Battle Frontier}} in Kanto. May retrieved it during her travels in [[Johto]], where it evolved all the way into a Venusaur.

====Other====
A Bulbasaur that used to belong to the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] appeared in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]''. In his childhood, the mayor abandoned his Bulbasaur and sent it into the sewers when it wouldn't evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}. Aided by [[Misty]] and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had gone missing. After defeating the arrogant mayor and his personal SWAT team, Ash and company left the Bulbasaur, which had grown rather large in its time in the sewers, with [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[H014|Journey to the Starting Line]]'', {{ka|Gilbert}}, the son of the mayor of [[Pallet Town]], was supposed to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with one of the three Kanto Starter Pokémon, but they were scared off by [[Ash's Tauros]]. [[Professor Oak]], {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}} and Gilbert set out to find them. The Bulbasaur was the last one to be found and it was stuck in a tree that was surrounded by a group of {{p|Primeape}}. In the end, Bulbasaur was the one that Gilbert decided to start with.

===Minor appearances===
Bulbasaur was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his second choice of a starter, after {{p|Squirtle}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, it was too late, as an unnamed Trainer who started the same day had already taken it.

A Bulbasaur was used by one of the students of the {{g|Trainer's School}} in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure]], [[Pistachio]] has a Bulbasaur named [[Danerina]]. She has a crush on him and is extremely jealous whenever she sees him talking to other females.

Ash's Bulbasaur is shown in several chapters of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]].

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
In the {{Special|Red, Green & Blue chapter}}, {{Special|Red}} receives a [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] from [[Professor Oak]] in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]'' after helping capture all the Pokémon he accidentally set free. Bulbasaur has since evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}}, and then to {{p|Venusaur}}. It has also been shown in the manga that Bulbasaur also has the ability to suck in air through its bulb (as seen in chapter 14 where it sucked up the mist in the ghost tower as well as the {{p|Gastly}} that made it).

==In the TCG==
{{main|Bulbasaur (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
Bulbasaur only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
Bulbasaur is a cute Pokémon born with a large seed firmly affixed to its back; the seed grows in size as the Pokémon does. Along with Squirtle and Charmander, Bulbasaur is one of the three Pokémon available at the beginning of Pokémon Red and Blue. It evolves into Ivysaur.

==Trivia==
*Bulbasaur is the mascot of [[Bulbagarden|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]].
*Bulbasaur's evolution family is the only starter Pokémon evolution family to have each member appear at least once in the Super Smash Bros. series.
*In the initial games, Bulbasaur's body was light green in color. It was changed to blue-green in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}.
**However, it is still light green in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] series.
*Bulbasaur is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] order. By default, this also makes it the first {{type2|Grass}}, {{type2|Poison}}, dual-type Pokémon and [[Starter Pokémon]] in National Pokédex order.
**Since in [[Generation I]], the {{type2|Bug}} was super-effective against {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, Bulbasaur was also the first Pokémon with a double weakness (to {{t|Bug}}. This "honour" has since been taken by {{p|Charizard}}.
*Bulbasaur and its evolutions share the same [[species]] name as {{p|Sunkern}}. They are all known as the Seed Pokémon.
*Bulbasaur's number in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] is the same: 001. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising thirteen Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one Pokédex-like listing.
*Bulbasaur is the only dual-typed starter Pokémon, with {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Poison}}, in its basic form, even in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].
*Though Bulbasaur have no gender differences in the games, May's Bulbasaur has little hearts on its head while Ash's does not, and has been confirmed female after its evolution.
**It's also one of the three Pokémon that appeared in the anime with a heart-shaped spot, the others being {{p|Spinda}} and {{p|Wooper}}.
*Bulbasaur is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Petal Dance}} by {{pkmn|breeding}}, while {{p|Venusaur|its final evolution}} learns it by leveling up.
*In Kanto, Bulbasaur has more advantages against Gym Leaders than the other starters. Its {{type2|Grass}} attacks make it effective against Pokémon in the Pewter City, Cerulean City, and Viridian City Gyms. Its {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Poison}} types also make it resistant to the Vermilion City and Celadon City Gyms' types. It only has weaknesses to the Cinnabar Island and Saffron City Gyms.
*Bulbasaur and Pikachu were on {{Ash}}'s team in the anime for the longest continuous period of time. Their in-game cries are variations of each other.

===Origin===
Bulbasaur appears to be based on some form of ''{{wp|Dicynodont}}'', mammal-like reptiles from the {{wp|Permian}}. Its bulb resembles that of a {{wp|lily}}.

====Name origin====
Bulbasaur's name is a combination of the words ''{{wp|bulb}}'' and ''saur'', which is {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} for ''lizard''. Its Japanese name literally means ''it's strange, isn't it?'', and is a pun on, 不思議種 ''fushigidane'', strange seed.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Bisasam - Derived from ''Bisamratte'' ({{wp|muskrat}}) and ''Samen'' ({{wp|seed}}).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Bulbizarre - A combination of ''bulb'' and ''bizarre'', reflected by the Japanese name, a pun on "Isn't it strange?".
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 이상해씨 ''Isanghaessi'' - Translates to ''Strange Seed''.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 妙蛙種子 ''Mìao Wa Chóng Zí'' - "Weird frog seed".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 奇異種子 ''Qí Yì Chóng Zí'' - "Unusual seed".
*Brazilian Portuguese (animé only): Bulbassauro - Adaptation of ''Bulbasaur''.

'''Bulbasaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギダネ''' ''Fushigidane'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[evolve]]s into {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at [[level]] 16, who evolves into {{p|Venusaur}} starting at level 32.

Along with {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, it is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] the player can choose to start with at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]] and is the first Pokémon numerically in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]], the [[National Pokédex]], and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Bulbasaur is a reptilian creature resembling a toad or dinosaur. It is blue-green with dark spots on much of its body. It should also be noted that, as it evolves, the Bulbasaur line bears a striking resemblance to ancient Therapsids. Its most notable feature, though, is the bulb on its back, which grows from a seed planted on its back when it is born. The bulb is similar to {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Parasect}}'s tochukaso mushrooms which are also planted at birth. However, Bulbasaur and its bulb share a symbiotic relationship rather than a parasitic one. The bulb has numerous seeds in it.

Bulbasaur usually walk around on four legs, but in this stage they also have the ability to rise up on their hind legs. However, in its later stages, it can't since the bulb on its back grows too heavy.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Bulbasaur have a variety of Grass-type abilities granted to it by the bulb growing on its back. Powders, scents, petals, and seeds can come from the very tip of the bulb, and vines and leaves can come from the base. By manipulating these into moves like {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Vine Whip}}, {{m|Razor Leaf}}, {{m|Petal Dance}}, and {{m|Sweet Scent}}, Bulbasaur have quite an arsenal at their disposal with the bulb.

The bulb also absorbs sunlight. The sunlight can be turned into health through {{m|Synthesis}} or launched at the opponent as a powerful {{m|SolarBeam}}.

===Behavior===
Most Bulbasaur are domestic Pokémon, raised to be distributed as starters by [[Professor Oak]]. As such, they are regarded as well-behaved Pokémon. They are often considered the easiest Pokémon to start with in [[Kanto]] since they are strong, not likely to misbehave, and have a type advantage over the first two Kanto [[Gym Leader]]s.

They can often have a strong loyalty streak. In ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]'', a Bulbasaur was abandoned by its {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the sewers, where it lived for many years. When it finally returned to the surface, it was not upset about being abandoned by its trainer. In fact, it was simply glad to see him again.

In ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]'', it is shown that once a year, large groups of Bulbasaur gather together in a hidden garden and evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}.

Bulbasaur can also be found lying in the sun during the day for photosynthesis. They mainly do this during times of scarcity of food.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
Bulbasaur are scarce in the wild. Sometimes they can be found in secret places such as gardens, plains near large sources of fresh water, or hiding in the forest in hollow logs, but overall they are found far more often in the ownership of Trainers.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Much like most Pokémon, Bulbasaur appears to be an {{wp|omnivore}}. However, in times of scarcity, it does not need to eat much food, since the bulb on its back can store energy from the sun.

==In the anime==
[[Image:EP010.png|thumb|right|[[Ash's Bulbasaur]] protecting a [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] {{p|Oddish}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]====
Ash's Bulbasaur first debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]]. Though initially wary of {{Ash}}, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a battle. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was captured. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were captured in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's party until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.

====[[May's Venusaur|May's Bulbasaur]]====
[[Image:Maybulbasaurvinewhip.jpg|thumb|right|[[May's Bulbasaur]] using {{m|Vine Whip}}]]
Much later on, when Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] region, his companion {{an|May}} captured her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria]]''. It remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to compete in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May too left her Bulbasaur at Professor Oak's lab to learn from Ash's while she and Ash's group traveled throughout the {{ho|Battle Frontier}} in Kanto. May retrieved it during her travels in [[Johto]], where it evolved all the way into a Venusaur.

====Other====
A Bulbasaur that used to belong to the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] appeared in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]''. In his childhood, the mayor abandoned his Bulbasaur and sent it into the sewers when it wouldn't evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}. Aided by [[Misty]] and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had gone missing. After defeating the arrogant mayor and his personal SWAT team, Ash and company left the Bulbasaur, which had grown rather large in its time in the sewers, with [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[H014|Journey to the Starting Line]]'', {{ka|Gilbert}}, the son of the mayor of [[Pallet Town]], was supposed to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with one of the three Kanto Starter Pokémon, but they were scared off by [[Ash's Tauros]]. [[Professor Oak]], {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}} and Gilbert set out to find them. The Bulbasaur was the last one to be found and it was stuck in a tree that was surrounded by a group of {{p|Primeape}}. In the end, Bulbasaur was the one that Gilbert decided to start with.

===Minor appearances===
Bulbasaur was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his second choice of a starter, after {{p|Squirtle}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, it was too late, as an unnamed Trainer who started the same day had already taken it.

A Bulbasaur was used by one of the students of the {{g|Trainer's School}} in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure]], [[Pistachio]] has a Bulbasaur named [[Danerina]]. She has a crush on him and is extremely jealous whenever she sees him talking to other females.

Ash's Bulbasaur is shown in several chapters of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]].

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
In the {{Special|Red, Green & Blue chapter}}, {{Special|Red}} receives a [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] from [[Professor Oak]] in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]'' after helping capture all the Pokémon he accidentally set free. Bulbasaur has since evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}}, and then to {{p|Venusaur}}. It has also been shown in the manga that Bulbasaur also has the ability to suck in air through its bulb (as seen in chapter 14 where it sucked up the mist in the ghost tower as well as the {{p|Gastly}} that made it).

==In the TCG==
{{main|Bulbasaur (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
Bulbasaur only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
Bulbasaur is a cute Pokémon born with a large seed firmly affixed to its back; the seed grows in size as the Pokémon does. Along with Squirtle and Charmander, Bulbasaur is one of the three Pokémon available at the beginning of Pokémon Red and Blue. It evolves into Ivysaur.

==Trivia==
*Bulbasaur is the mascot of [[Bulbagarden|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]].
*Bulbasaur's evolution family is the only starter Pokémon evolution family to have each member appear at least once in the Super Smash Bros. series.
*In the initial games, Bulbasaur's body was light green in color. It was changed to blue-green in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}.
**However, it is still light green in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] series.
*Bulbasaur is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] order. By default, this also makes it the first {{type2|Grass}}, {{type2|Poison}}, dual-type Pokémon and [[Starter Pokémon]] in National Pokédex order.
**Since in [[Generation I]], the {{type2|Bug}} was super-effective against {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, Bulbasaur was also the first Pokémon with a double weakness (to {{t|Bug}}. This "honour" has since been taken by {{p|Charizard}}.
*Bulbasaur and its evolutions share the same [[species]] name as {{p|Sunkern}}. They are all known as the Seed Pokémon.
*Bulbasaur's number in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] is the same: 001. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising thirteen Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one Pokédex-like listing.
*Bulbasaur is the only dual-typed starter Pokémon, with {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Poison}}, in its basic form, even in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].
*Though Bulbasaur have no gender differences in the games, May's Bulbasaur has little hearts on its head while Ash's does not, and has been confirmed female after its evolution.
**It's also one of the three Pokémon that appeared in the anime with a heart-shaped spot, the others being {{p|Spinda}} and {{p|Wooper}}.
*Bulbasaur is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Petal Dance}} by {{pkmn|breeding}}, while {{p|Venusaur|its final evolution}} learns it by leveling up.
*In Kanto, Bulbasaur has more advantages against Gym Leaders than the other starters. Its {{type2|Grass}} attacks make it effective against Pokémon in the Pewter City, Cerulean City, and Viridian City Gyms. Its {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Poison}} types also make it resistant to the Vermilion City and Celadon City Gyms' types. It only has weaknesses to the Cinnabar Island and Saffron City Gyms.
*Bulbasaur and Pikachu were on {{Ash}}'s team in the anime for the longest continuous period of time. Their in-game cries are variations of each other.

===Origin===
Bulbasaur appears to be based on some form of ''{{wp|Dicynodont}}'', mammal-like reptiles from the {{wp|Permian}}. Its bulb resembles that of a {{wp|lily}}.

====Name origin====
Bulbasaur's name is a combination of the words ''{{wp|bulb}}'' and ''saur'', which is {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} for ''lizard''. Its Japanese name literally means ''it's strange, isn't it?'', and is a pun on, 不思議種 ''fushigidane'', strange seed.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Bisasam - Derived from ''Bisamratte'' ({{wp|muskrat}}) and ''Samen'' ({{wp|seed}}).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Bulbizarre - A combination of ''bulb'' and ''bizarre'', reflected by the Japanese name, a pun on "Isn't it strange?".
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 이상해씨 ''Isanghaessi'' - Translates to ''Strange Seed''.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 妙蛙種子 ''Mìao Wa Chóng Zí'' - "Weird frog seed".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 奇異種子 ''Qí Yì Chóng Zí'' - "Unusual seed".
*Brazilian Portuguese (animé only): Bulbassauro - Adaptation of ''Bulbasaur''.

'''Charizard''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''リザードン''' ''Lizardon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charmeleon}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Charmander}}.

Charizard is the [[version mascot]] of [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red]] and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed]] Versions. It also makes an appearance on the {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, {{en|Pokémon Stadium}}, [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 3|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky]] boxarts.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Unlike its pre-evolution cousins, it has powerful wings that can allow it to {{m|fly}} at blinding speeds, although the faster it flies, the more strain is put on the Pokémon, and it must rest for a good while after doing so. It is also more vulnerable to attacks the more outspread its wings are, so its newfound flying ability should be treated with as much care as a flying Pokémon. It has a considerably higher defense than its cousins, though as noted before caution should be used about its wings, which have little defense. Its physical strength now matches the strength of its fire attacks, and it can withstand mid-high altitude pressure, allowing it to fly above mountains, and can even withstand the high pressure and extreme heat of volcanoes. Charizard is a very dragon-like Pokémon. It has, like its previous forms, a long tail with a fire burning at the tip. The front of its two wings is blue, while the back is orange like the most of its body. Although hardly visible, Charizard's iris is light blue in color. Its belly is cream- colored.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Because of the wings it has grown upon evolution, Charizard is now able to {{M|fly}} and can use many other {{Type2|Flying}} abilities. As its pre-evolutions could, it can use {{type2|Fire}} moves. It also has access to {{type2|Dragon}} moves, such as {{m|Dragon Claw}} and {{m|DragonBreath}}.

===Behavior===
Generally, a Charizard will be competitive. It loves to battle and spend a great amount of time training or looking for opponents. Its competitive spirit is also noteworthy, since it will never spit flames at a weaker foe unless provoked or commanded. When it gets very angered, the flames on its tail become a blueish-white color. It spits fire that is hot enough to melt boulders. It is known to have unintentionally caused massive forest fires with its tail-flame. The more experienced a Charizard, the more intense its tail flame and breath are.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]
Charizard is mercifully rare in the wild; however, there is [[Charicific Valley|a valley]] somewhere in [[Johto]] wherein many Charizard reside. Charizard also inhabit craggy mountains and active volcanoes.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Ash's Charizard.jpg|thumb|right|[[Ash's Charizard]]]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Charizard]]====
[[Ash Ketchum]] has a {{AP|Charizard}} that he obtained as a Charmander in ''[[EP011|Charmander the Stray Pokémon]]''. It evolved into Charmeleon in ''[[EP043|March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'' and quickly evolved again into Charizard in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''. From the time of its becoming Charmeleon to the [[Orange Islands]] episode ''[[EP105|Charizard Chills]]'', Charizard refused to obey Ash. After ''Charizard Chills'', however, it became one of Ash's strongest Pokémon, perhaps even stronger than {{AP|Pikachu}}. Ash left Charizard in the [[Charicific Valley]] with {{jo|Liza}} in ''[[EP134|Charizard's Burning Ambition]]''. It has returned to visit and battle for him on several occasions since then, however.

====Other====
[[Image:JnJCharizardAggron.jpg|thumb|right|[[Jessie]] and [[James]] with their {{TP|Jessie|Charizard}} and {{TP|James|Aggron}}]]
When [[James]] was in the Pokémon League Entrance Exam in ''[[EP056|The Ultimate Test]]'', he used a Charizard that he eventually tried to steal.

In ''[[H017|Those Darn Electabuzz]]'', {{an|Casey}} had to help Corey Demario and his Charizard named Don get their fighting spirit back so that Corey could start pitching for The Electabuzz Baseball Team.

[[Clark]] used a Charizard and {{p|Quilava}} against [[Ash's Grovyle]] and {{AP|Glalie}} in ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]''. Clark's Charizard defeated Ash's Grovyle and lost to Ash's Glalie.

In ''[[AG177|Grating Spaces]]'', {{OBP|Delibird|Team Rocket}} gave [[Jessie]] and [[James]] a Charizard and {{p|Aggron}}, with Jessie getting {{TP|Jessie|Charizard}} and James getting {{TP|James|Aggron}}, respectively. However, Delibird took the two Pokémon away at the end of the episode as the Charizard and Aggron were meant for [[Cassidy]] and [[Butch]].

===Minor appearances===
A Charizard was used by Team Rocket in a battle against [[Ash's Totodile]] as part of an elaborate plan to capture Pikachu in ''[[EP248|One Trick Phony!]]''.

A trainer used a Charizard in the {{to|Verdanturf}} [[Pokémon Contest]] in ''[[AG051|Come What May]]''.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Special]], one of {{Special|Green}}'s main Pokémon is [[Green's Charizard|a Charizard]], evolved from his {{p|Charmander}}. [[Dome Ace Tucker|Tucker]] also has a Charizard in the {{ho|Battle Frontier}} storyline.

In [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]], [[Ritchie]] has [[Zippo|a Charizard]], which he pitted against Ash's Charizard in their battle in the [[Indigo League]].

In [[Pokémon Battle Frontier]], [[Rald]], the main character's mentor has a Charizard.

In [[Pokémon Zensho]], {{OBP|Satoshi|Zensho}} has a Charizard that was originally a Charmander he received from Professor Oak.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Charizard (TCG)}}
Charizard's [[Charizard (Base Set 4)|first-released TCG card]], which as part of the {{TCG|Base Set}}, was widely regarded at the height of popularity of Pokémon as the best card ever. This was because of its powerful attack, Fire Spin, and useful Pokémon Power, Energy Burn, which allowed it to convert any Energy attached to it to {{TCG|Fire}} Energy. {{m|Fire Spin}} needed four Fire Energy and could deal 100 damage, knocking out the majority of Pokémon cards. Individual Charizard cards were sold up to as much as $150. This Charizard card was reprinted in [[Wizards of the Coast]]'s {{TCG|Base Set 2}} and {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} sets, and rereleased in the {{TCG|Stormfront}} expansion.

==In the TFG==
One Charizard figure has been released.
* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Charizard|1}}

==Other appearances==
[[Image:Charizard Rock Smash.jpg|right|thumb|[[Red (game)|Pokémon Trainer]] commanding Charizard to use {{m|Rock Smash}} in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]].]]
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
Charizard makes an appearance as a Pokémon released randomly from a [[Poké Ball]]. When summoned, Charizard will utilize {{m|Flamethrower}} alternating between the left and right. In Melee, the flames have more of a downward angle.

Charizard is a playable Pokémon used by {{ga|Red|Pokémon Trainer}} in the third game in the series, Brawl. It can use {{m|Flamethrower}} and {{m|Rock Smash}}. It also uses {{m|Fly}} and has the ability to glide. Charizard is a Heavyweight and attacks with various physical attacks. It uses {{m|Fire Blast}} in Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, [[Final Smash#Triple Finish|Triple Finish]].

====Melee trophy information====
It's hard to believe, but this massive Flame Pokémon evolves from the tiny Charmander. Not only can it fly at heights of over 4,500 feet, but its flaming breath is hot enough to reduce almost anything to ashes in seconds. The flames at the end of a Charizard's tail are said to be a fairly accurate barometer of its power.

====Brawl trophy information====
A Flame Pokémon. Its fiery breath is hot enough to burn up rocks, and its wings let it fly up to 4,600 feet into the air. It's a proud Pokémon that will never use its flame breath on an opponent weaker than itself. The flame on its tail is a barometer of how much vitality it has remaining. Its signature move, Flamethrower, is a reliable technique.

==Trivia==
* Charizard is the only evolution of a [[starter Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Fly}} through [[HM02]]. However, it was unable to do so in {{v2|Red and Blue|s}}. This was changed starting with {{v2|Yellow}}, making it possible to still get a Charizard with Fly in the original games, by trading one from a later version.
* Charizard has a cry that is almost identical to that of a {{p|Rhyhorn}}, with the difference of being slightly higher-pitched.
* Charizard has the same base stats as {{p|Typhlosion}}.
* Charizard is the first {{t|Flying}} Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.
* Charizard is the only non-legendary Pokémon that is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Flying}} Pokémon. The other known Pokémon with this combination are both legendary--{{p|Moltres}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
* Charizard shares the same [[species]] name as {{p|Charmeleon}}, {{p|Flareon}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Infernape}}. They are all known as Flame Pokémon.
* Charizard is not a {{t|Dragon}}, but is used by [[Lance]], a [[Pokémon trainer|trainer]] of Dragon-type Pokémon, probably due to its [[Dragon (egg group)|Dragon-like]] appearance.
* Charizard is the only non {{type2|Dragon}} to learn {{m|Dragon Claw}} via level-up.
* Charizard holds the distinction of being the first Pokémon to appear in the Japanese version of the {{g|anime}}; it is the first one to appear in the original opening credits. However, outside Japan, this honor belongs to {{p|Mewtwo}}.
* Charizard is the first Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order to have a double weakness —— {{t|Rock}}. However, it wasn't originally, as in [[Generation I]], the {{type2|Bug}} was super-effective against the {{type2|Poison}}, making {{p|Bulbasaur}} the original first Pokémon with a double weakness.
** Charizard is also the first Pokémon [[National Pokédex]] order to have a immunity —— {{t|Ground}}.
* Charizard is one of the few Pokémon to have major color differences in {{shiny2}} sprites between generations.
* Charizard, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Ho-oh}} are the only {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon who have a weakness to {{t|Electric}} attacks
* In the anime the inside of Charizard's wings are colored green, while in the games they are colored blue.

===Origin===
Charizard resembles the {{wp|European dragon}}, certainly one of many forms told and rendered in legends. Although it is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon, it can learn an [[#By_leveling_up|array]] of {{type2|Dragon}} moves; {{m|Dragon Rage}}, etc. Charizard's prominence as a dragon without being of the {{type2|Dragon}} is further reinforced in the video game {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, where one makes a cameo as one of four prominently featured {{wp|classical element|patron elemental}} dragon Pokémon.

The other three Pokémon sharing this distinguishing trait are legitimate Dragon-type Pokémon; {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Kingdra}}, and {{p|Flygon}}. The patronage of these four dragons is inspired from the four {{wp|classical element|classical elements}}; {{wp|Air (classical element)|Air}}, {{wp|Water (classical element)|Water}}, {{wp|Earth (classical element)|Earth}}, and {{wp|Fire (classical element)|Fire}}. Charizard being the representative of Fire.

It shares some evolutionary traits with Charmeleon in it's distinctive horns; also a distinct trait in some dragons.

====Name origin====
Charizard's name is a portmanteau of the words ''char'', to burn, and ''lizard''. ''Lizardon'', on the other hand, is a combination of ''lizard'' and ''don'', which is a suffix commonly used in {{wp|dinosaur}} names.

==In other languages==
* [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Glurak - Comes from ''Glut'' (ember, also the German translation for the {{m|Ember|move of the same name}}) and ''Drache'' (dragon).
* [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Dracaufeu - Effectively translates as ''Fire Dragon''.
* [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 리자몽 ''Rijamong'' (Lizamon)
* [[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan and Hong Kong)]]: 噴火龍 Pēn Hǔo Lóng - "Fire spurting dragon".

'''Perish Song''' (Japanese: '''ほろびのうた''' ''Perish Song'') is a non-damaging {{type2|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]].

==Effect==
After 3 turns, all Pokémon that were on the field when Perish Song was used will faint unless they switch out. Perish Song does not affect Pokémon with the [[ability]] {{a|Soundproof}}.

'''Perish Song''' (Japanese: '''ほろびのうた''' ''Perish Song'') is a non-damaging {{type2|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]].

==Effect==
After 3 turns, all Pokémon that were on the field when Perish Song was used will faint unless they switch out. Perish Song does not affect Pokémon with the [[ability]] {{a|Soundproof}}. If a Pokémon switches out with {{m|Baton Pass}}, Perish Song will still be in effect on the Pokémon switched in, even if it has the ability Soundproof.

Talk:Catch rate

2009-04-22T06:34:36Z

Da Rammo: /* Trivia... */

The computer science term for "Floor" is, in fact, "int(", which simply truncates the number. "round(" would make a value like 6.9 become 7; "int(" would make it 6. I believe Zhen is correct in this case. ~Evan
:What was that in reference to? - Jshadias
::Zhen's edit and your subsequent reversion, if I read the history right. ~Evan
:::He was just editing it to make it consistent with my other changes. In any case, the after revision is the right-side column. In any case, trunc() and floor() are the same, but int() is ambiguous. It simply means conversion to integer, which could be rounding or truncating. Wish I could get TeX-rendering working... - [[User:Zhen Lin|刘 (劉) 振霖]] 09:40, 12 Feb 2005 (GMT)

== Is this formula accurate? ==

When using the formula

Chance = floor (((( TotalHP * 4 ) - ( CurrentHP * 2 )) * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + Status + 1

with Pokémon with high catch rates (ex. Pidgey and Rattata), the formula says that there should be about a 200% chance to catch a Pidgey at 100% HP. But there isn't a 200% chance or even a 100% chance. I caught 5 Pokémon on Route 1 of FireRed without weakening any of them and I used 15 Pokéballs. Despite the sample size, the fact that the Pokémon escaped even once is enough to raise concern about the formula. Any other thoughts on the matter? -Wild Eep

:Experimental data isn't the same as theoretical results. But then again, methinks you might be misinterpreting the results of using this formula. The formula does not return a percentage, it returns a number, and in order to capture a Pokémon, the randomly generated number between 0 and 255 (or possibly a higher number than that, say, 511) has to be below the number you obtain from this formula. But I'm not the game mechanics expert. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 02:16, 25 November 2005 (CST)

Hmm. . . using the formula for any pokémon at any level with full HP and no status ailments with a catch rate of 255 gives an output of 511. Every site I could find has the exact same formula, and they all say the random number is between 0-255. Those that site sources site [[user:Meowth346|Meowth346]] as their source, so maybe he knows, or can find out. [[User:Slim|Slim]] 15:54, 29 November 2005 (CST)

:Indeed, there seems to be something off with either this formula or the listed CatchRates. Trying to catch a Pokemon simply by chucking a normal Pokeball at it (that is, no damage done, no status changes) simplifies as so:

:Chance = floor (Poké Ball * (((( TotalHP * 4 ) - ( CurrentHP * 2 )) * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + Status + 1)

:Chance = floor (1 * (((( TotalHP * 4 ) - ( TotalHP * 2 )) * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + 0 + 1)

:Chance = floor ((( TotalHP * 2 * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + 1)

:Chance = floor (( 2 * CatchRate ) + 1)

:For any CatchRate of 128 or higher, Chance is at least 257. The random number between 0 and 255 this is compared to will always be less than this, and as a result any Pokemon with a CatchRate of 128 or higher should always be caught simply by chucking a Pokeball at it. Yet this does not seem to be the case -- you can't always catch an Abra this way, despite them having a CatchRate of 200. This should give them a Chance of 401, and thus a 100% catch rate. [[User:Wild Eep|Wild Eep]] and [[User:Slim|Slim]] seem to have noticed the same thing. [[User:Opaopa13|Opaopa13]] 05:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

::I just noticed something -- note the following line in the article:
:::'''CurrentHP''' is either the wild Pokémon's current HP, or if its current HP is greater than 255, use ''floor ( '''CurrentHP''' / 4)''.
::It doesn't make sense to simply replace '''CurrentHP''' with ''floor ( '''CurrentHP''' / 4)'' -- that would make for a very strange function, where a Pokemon with 256 HP would be easier to catch than one with 68. Replacing all of ''('''CurrentHP''' * 2 )'' just makes the problem worse. This suggests a typographical error somewhere in either the formula or its explanation.

::I had a hunch, and replaced ''(( '''TotalHP''' * 4 ) - ( '''CurrentHP''' * 2 ))'' with ''(( '''TotalHP''' / 4 ) - ( '''CurrentHP''' / 2 ))''. Unfortunately, that's not right either -- according to that forumla, a Pokemon above 50% health will have a negative Chance value and thus can NEVER be caught. We know that is not the case. However, I suspect something along those lines is the solution. Perhaps one of those multiplications is supposed to be a division instead. Is there any healthy chunk of experimental data to look at? [[User:Opaopa13|Opaopa13]] 05:24, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

The sensible thing to do is to ask someone who knows how to use a debugger/disassembler to investigate this. Unfortunately, the only person I know who can do this is pika. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 06:57, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Examining an emulated copy of Pokemon Red, I did, indeed, find it impossible to NOT catch any Rattata or Pidgey I threw a Pokeball at. I was more than ready to believe this formula were true. But, as Opaopa13 said, we know it isn't, because anyone who has played the Red or Blue versions knows Abra is not so easy to catch.

Interestingly, I tried the same thing on a Pidgey in an emulated copy of the Gold version (throwing a ball at it when it was at full health), and failed to capture it until my third try.

I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE! - Pineapple

:It would be easy to explain this if Abra's catch rate was just wrong, but the catch rates must have been data-mined, so that's out. Allow me to be completely speculative here, but perhaps it's something like a rare few Pokemon having an additional chance to escape capture? Or certain catch rates that are influenced by what badges you have? It would be odd to have something like that when the programmers could just alter something's catch rate instead, though...

:Well, we _know_ we get the wrong results for Abra. I'm guessing there was some minor typo somewhere, or else some minor modifier to the formula we aren't aware of.

:On a side-note, I'm still really confused by the "if CurrentHP > 256, use (CurrentHP / 4) instead" thing. I just can't imagine any reason, technical or modelling-wise, where "use CurrentHP = 255" doesn't work just as well or better. Or at least divide by 2! (Pokemon HP never exceeds 1024, right? Thinking in terms of the number of bits it takes to represent these numbers...). [[User:Opaopa13|Opaopa13]] 19:22, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I think, we should just remove the formula from the page until we can get some authoritative analysis, or otherwise from experimental data. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 06:17, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

I strongly suspect that the only problem with the formula on the site is the 2. I know that's how the old equation simplifies, so the original was probably off as well. 1+INT(B*(2-P)*C+S) makes perfect sense. Then a Pidgey or other Pokemon with a catch rate of 255 is guaranteed to be caught, since at full health and no ailments, you get 256. Any number from 0-255 will be lower than that, so you'll always catch it. On the other hand, a legendary Pokemon with 1/10th of its health left, paralyzed, with an ultra ball thrown an it, is 1+INT(2*1.9*3+5), or 17. 17/256 (since it's a less than roll, not less than or equal to) is about 6.6% (1 in 15). That seems about right, given that it's taken an average of 15-20 ultra balls for me to catch most of the legendaries. The current formula says it would be 28/256, or 10.9% (about 1 in 9), which is definitely not right. Easiest way to test would be to repeatedly try catching something with a catch rate around 120, using a standard ball, and see if it happens about half the time. [[User:Arrkhal|Arrkhal]] 03:50, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

== The correct formula ==

Apparently someone at Smogon found an extremely complex formula on a Japanese website. A good friend of mine simplified it and it seems to be 100% Accurate:

( ( 1 - CurHP * 2 / ( MaxHP * 3 ) ) * Catch * Ball * Status ) / 256

Status:
*1 for Normal
*1.5 for Poisoned, Paralyzed, or Burned
*2 for Asleep or Frozen

Examples:
*A level 2 Rattata, with 13/13 HP, catch rate 255, using a Pokeball. No status effects.
**( ( 1 - 13 * 2 / ( 13 * 3 ) ) * 255 * 1 * 1 ) / 256
**= 0.33203125
**~ 33%
*A level 70 Regigigas, with 1/234 HP, frozen, catch rate 3, using a Dusk ball.
**( ( 1 - 1 * 2 / ( 234 * 3 ) ) * 3 * 4 * 2 ) / 256
**= 0.093482906
**~ 9%

[[User:DanPMK|MK]] 05:51, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
:This does appear to be more reasonable, however, I would like to see this so-called "extremely complex" formula. There may be some rounding going on which affects the precision of the results. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 12:05, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

:::As I suspected, there is more to it. It seems that the formula result is interpreted in two different ways depending on what the value is. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 12:25, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

== Formula is nowhere near correct ==

I just tried catching a Lv. 13 Feebas at full health (30 HP). I threw three dusk balls at it (while in the cavern, of course), and they all broke. On the fourth try I was able to catch it. It has a catch rate of 255, so according to this formula I have maybe a 400% chance of catching it at full health. Even going by the catch rate alone, I should have had a 100% chance of catching it. This wasn't an atypical situation either. I tried catching a few more before and after this one, and I generally wasn't able to capture them until I weakened them (I caught maybe one or two without hurting it). Once I threw an ultra ball at one, and it immediately broke. I think the pokemon's HP ratio definitely has a lot more to do with catching it than what this formula suggests.

If there are any sources on that other function that someone submitted in here (I don't know how to reply to comments, sorry :<), then that would be really nice. But I tried that equation on the above-mentioned feebas and got (1-(30*2)/(30*3))*255*4*1)/256 (the pokeball page on here says that the dusk ball is 4x in caverns, and Wikipedia says it's twice as good as an ultraball, so I'm going with 4x), which equals 340/256, or 1.328125. This is still above a 100% catch rate on something that seemed like it was maybe 50%. Even going with the assumption that the dusk ball is only 3x better than a pokeball, I still got 255/256, which awfully close to 100%. So unless the dusk ball didn't have its 3x/4x effect (maybe from me fishing in the cavern instead of walking in the cavern?), I don't think this function is true either.

--[[User:Stele007|Stele007]] 18:59, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
:Were you surfing by any chance? There has to be some way to explain this. Feebas is extremely easy to capture regardless. My friend caught several using Quick balls (4x for the first 5 turns) immediately at the start of battle and none of them missed. If you were, perhaps the Dusk balls did not work because of surfing. I know they do work while fishing... [[User:DanPMK|MK]] 06:25, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

== Easier explanation? ==

I think there should be an easier explanation included in this article, something of a tl;dr section. To me, this is all mathematical mumbo-jumbo, and I commonly fail anything and everything algebraic. I could honestly care less how the game determines how a pokemon is caught, I just know that I need to lower the HP of the wild Pokémon and possibly inflict a status problem on it to catch it. Also, on major thing that's missing from the article is it doesn't explain if a higher number for a catch rate is better or worse. It may be a dumb question to ask (but I don't honestly get it, either) but you quite often have to write for the five-year-old poké-tards that will be here.

Da Rammo: /* Similar movesets */

[[Image:Regis.png|thumb|right|250px|Regice, Registeel and Regirock]] '''Legendary golems''' is the collective term used to refer to the [[Legendary trio|trio]] of {{p|Registeel}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Regirock}}. They are also known as the '''Regi trio''' or just the '''Regis'''.

Unlike previous trios, the golems share much more similar names; additionally, their types are estranged from the standard {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Water}}/{{t|Ice}} and {{t|Electric}} trio. However, similarly to the previous two, they have a [[trio master|master]], {{p|Regigigas}}, released in a generation one later than the one they were introduced in, like the [[legendary birds]].

All of the Regi Pokémon are single-types and vulnerable to {{type2|Fighting}} attacks. They also all have seven dots as eyes, similar to [[braille]]. Their [[abilities]], though different from those of the trios of the previous two generations, are all the same: {{a|Clear Body}}.

In the anime, they appeared as less important Pokémon than the other two trios, even being trained, in [[Poké Ball]]s, no less, by [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]], whereas the legendary birds would create a worldwide disaster if they were all captured (though this has not happened when the other members of the species in the bird trio were captured), and the [[legendary beasts]] are too powerful to be captured by conventional means. However, this certainly does not mean that the Regi trio are weak compared to other legendary trios.

The reason why this trio is seen as "easily attainable" by human beings is because they were thought to have been created by humans themselves. The [[Sealed Chamber]] and the various structures that house each of the golems appear to have been man-made. However, it is a complete mystery as to who constructed them. The only clues these people left are in the form of stone tablets, written in visual [[braille]], making them distinct from ruins which use {{p|Unown}} writing instead. This visual braille is also found in a cave in [[Mt. Ember]] and the [[Dotted Hole]] in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. However, no braille is found in the [[Snowpoint Temple]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, despite its being home to Regigigas and holding importance to the Regi trio. Whether these places were built by the same people who created the locations in Hoenn is not known.

==Trivia==
* In {{g|Colosseum}}, the event needed to unlock the legendary golems is referenced in Battle Mode's Single Battle Mount Battle. The 90th trainer, Area Leader Axley has a party consisting of Regirock, Regice, Registeel, {{p|Flygon}}, {{p|Relicanth}}, and {{p|Wailord}}.
* The trio can be caught in {{game|Platinum}}. There are two other instances in the [[main series]] that a legendary trio can be caught in a place that is not their native region (the [[legendary beasts]] can be caught in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and the [[legendary birds]] are available for capture in {{v2|Platinum}}, roaming [[Sinnoh]]).
* There have been two situations where the capturing method has had some sort of reversal. First, in [[Generation III]], the party positions of {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Relicanth}} are switched. Then, in [[Generation IV]], players need to migrate the trio into {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} in order to capture {{p|Regigigas}}, but in Japanese movie theaters (for those who bought the advance-sale tickets only), Regigigas can be downloaded into Diamond and Pearl then traded to {{v2|Platinum}}, and there are special rooms to capture each of its servants.

Rock (type)

Da Rammo: /* Non-damaging moves */

{{ElementalTypes|rock}}
{{TypeNotice|Rock|いわ|Iwa}}
Notable trainers that specialize in the Rock-type include [[Brock]] of [[Pewter City]], [[Roxanne]] of [[Rustboro City]] and [[Roark]] of [[Oreburgh City]]. They are, notably, all the first [[Gym Leader]] encountered in their respective regions.

==Battle properties==
Rock-type moves:
* Are super-effective against: {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Ice}}
* Are not very effective against: {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Steel}}
* Have no effect against: None
Rock-type Pokémon:
* Resist: {{t|Normal}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Poison}}
* Are weak to: {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Water}}
* Have immunity to: None

==Characteristics==
The Rock-type is a mediocre type defensively. Despite having an overall high {{stat|Defense}} on average, its weaknesses to {{t|Ground}}- and {{type2|Fighting}} moves, commonly [[physical moves|physical]] in nature, take it down a notch. The fact that, at best, its {{stat|Special Defense}} is mediocre, combined with its weakness to {{t|Grass}}- and {{type2|Water}} moves, greatly decrease its ability to defend. Despite this, resistances to {{t|Normal}} and {{t|Fire}} prove that defensively it can stand.

Rock is one of the best types offensively. Being resisted by only three of the seventeen types, two of which are hindered by their own bad defenses ({{t|Fighting}}) and relative scarcity ({{t|Steel}}) helps it a lot, and the fact that only two Pokémon out of nearly 500 ({{p|Lucario}} and {{p|Steelix}}) have a double resistance to Rock keeps its moves relatively effective. Double weaknesses to Rock are relatively common, with many {{type2|Bug}}s having one due to their secondary {{type2|Flying}}, while the typically high-powered {{t|Ice}}- and {{type2|Fire}}s also do not fare well. As Pokémon of the three types that resist Rock typically can master Rock-type moves, this proves a quite versatile combination.

When used in contests, Rock-type moves typically become [[Tough Contest|Tough]] moves, but can also be of the other four Contest types, excluding [[Cute Contest|Cute]].

==Pokémon==
In total, there are 37 Pokémon of the Rock-type; 20 are fully evolved.

==Trivia==
* If there were a hypothetical Pokémon of all 17 types, it would only be weak to Rock-type moves. However, it is possible to create more weaknesses by using moves such as {{m|Foresight}} to remove immunities.
* There were no pure Rock-type Pokémon until [[Generation II]].
* No [[physical move|physical]] Rock-type move is 100% accurate. In contrast, all [[special move|special]] Rock-type moves are 100% accurate.
* In the first season of the {{pkmn|anime}} and during much of [[Generation I]], the Rock-type was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by {{type2|Electric}} attacks. This was likely due to the fact that at the time, the only Rock-types that were not part Ground were the {{cat|fossil Pokémon}}.
* The Rock-type is tied with the {{type2|Grass}} for the largest number of weaknesses when unpaired, with five: {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Steel}}.
* Every known [[fossil]] Pokémon is Rock-type.
* Every known Gym that specializes in the Rock-type has been the first Gym that the trainer visits on his/her adventure.
**Similarly, each of these Gyms' Leaders has used {{p|Geodude}} as at least one of their Pokémon.

'''Aerodactyl''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''プテラ''' ''Ptera'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Flying}} Pokémon.

It is resurrected from [[Fossil|Old Amber]] and is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
It is widely considered to be extinct, and is only found by resurrecting it from the [[Old Amber]].
===Physiology===
A ferocious, prehistoric Pokémon, it possesses serrated, razor-sharp fangs that it uses to tear through the throats of its prey. Its wings have skin stretched from its side to its arms. The triangular-shaped tip of its tail is grey, like the tail itself which is connected to its oval body.
====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Aerodactyl is capable of flying at great speeds and tearing through prey with its fangs. It is also very durable due to its rock-hard body.

===Behavior===
Aerodactyl's preferred method of killing its victims is by tearing through the throats of its victims with its serrated, saw-like fangs.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]
The exact habitat of Aerodactyl is unknown even though some living samples have been found miles underground in caves, but so far most Aerodactyl are revived from [[Old Amber]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
In the episode ''[[H015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl]]'', the Aerodactyl seemed to enjoy eating a pear like fruit that grew in the forests of an island.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Aerodactyl anime.jpg|thumb|right|Aerodactyl in the anime]]
Aerodactyl first appeared in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''. It scared off the other [[Generation I]] fossil Pokémon that were chasing {{Ash}} and [[Team Rocket]]. It then kidnapped the young [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainer]], who was rescued by his {{AP|Charizard}}. [[Todd Snap|Todd]] took a photo of this Aerodactyl, which was seen in ''[[EP055|Pokémon Paparazzi]]''.

Fossils of {{p|Kabutops}} and Aerodactyl were resurrected by {{mov|Annie}} and [[Oakley]] in ''[[Pokémon Heroes]]''; in the English dub, they were once used by an evil Pokémon Trainer to torment the civilians of [[Alto Mare]], but were drowned when a {{p|Latios}} brought water to the city. They were sent to chase after Ash and {{an|Latias}}.

''[[H015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl]]'' featured an Aerodactyl that was revived by [[Gary Oak]]. The Aerodactyl seemed to enjoy eating a pear like fruit that grew in the forests of an island. [[Team Rocket]] agents [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] wanted to steal this Aerodactyl in order to present it to [[Dr. Namba]], but were stopped by [[Gary's Umbreon]] and {{p|Dodrio}}, and of course the Aerodactyl who sent the two Rockets flying with a {{m|Hyper Beam}}.

Another Aerodactyl appeared in ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets]]'', where it terrorized [[Oreburgh City]] after being revived from its fossil state.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Special===
{{Special|Red}} obtains an Aerodactyl from a resurrected piece of Old Amber. He has since then used it extensively for aerial transport and combat.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Aerodactyl (TCG)}}

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
*[[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: In the [[Ruby Field]], once an egg has been hatched, Aerodactyl will fly by and replace it the next time the ball rolls into the Egg Stand.

==Trivia==
[[Image:000A.png|frame|right|Aerodactyl fossil on display in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]]]

* Aerodactyl was originally going to use its Japanese name, "Ptera", as its English name.
* During its first appearance in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'' it was mentioned that Aerodactyl was carnivorous based on its teeth (and the reactions of the other fossil Pokémon when it arrived). However in ''[[H015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl]]'' it is shown and proven to be at least omnivorous, based on its joyful consumption of fruit.
* Aerodactyl is the only non-{{type2|Steel}} that can learn {{m|Iron Head}} by [[level|leveling up]].
** It is also the only Pokémon that learns both {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}} by leveling up.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[Elemental types|type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Aerodactyl.
* Aerodactyl is the only [[fossil]] Pokémon that does not have an evolution or pre-evolution and is obtainable in another way besides reviving its fossilized form and that is through an in-game [[trade]] (without another game and [[Game Boy]]).
* Aerodactyl is one of the few Pokémon that can have [[STAB]] super-effectiveness against another Pokémon of its species, as {{t|Rock}} is super-effective against {{t|Flying}}. Other such examples include {{p|Lucario}} and {{p|Tropius}}.
* Aerodactyl is the only [[Generation I]] {{type2|Rock}} that doesn't have a 4× weakness to {{type2|Grass}} moves.
* Aerodactyl, tied with {{p|Regigigas}}, has the most starting moves of all Pokémon, with seven.
* Due to a similar appearance, Aerodactyl may be an early ancestor of {{p|Charizard}}, and possibly the entire {{p|Charmander}} evolution family.

==Origin==
It appears to be based upon {{wp|pterosaur}}s, prehistoric flying reptiles.
===Name origin===
Aerodactyl's name may be a pun, combining ''aero'', {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} for air, with the similar sounding ''{{wp|pterodactyl}}''. Its Japanese name is simply a shortening of the word ''pterosaur''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Aerodactyl
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Ptera
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 프테라 ''Peutera''

Moves not in the Pokémon games

2009-04-22T04:42:37Z

Da Rammo: /* In the TCG */

{{incomplete}}
This is a '''list of moves that have appeared in the anime, manga, and TCG that have not appeared in the games'''.

==In Pokémon Special==
*[[Pika|Red's Pikachu]]
:MegaVolt: a stronger version of {{m|Thunderbolt}} (10 times the strength), used to defeat [[Lance]].

*{{Special|Gold}}'s {{p|Pichu}}
:Super Rising Thunder: A stronger version of {{m|Thunder}}, used to defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Thunderarmor.png|frame|right|150px|{{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Swellow}} using Thunder Armor]]
;*{{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Swellow}}
:Thunder Armor: Pikachu uses {{m|Thunder}} on itself and Swellow. This improvised technique increased both Pikachu and Swellow's {{Stat|Speed}} and {{Stat|Attack}}, and were able to subdue their opponents with relative ease afterwards.

*{{AP|Pidgeotto}}
:Gust Counter-Attack: a variation of {{m|Gust}}, used to force the foe to evade. This technique was used only once by Ash's Pidgeotto in ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon]]''. Pidgeotto slams its wings together, creating a small air flow around his wings forcing [[Jessie's Ekans]] to jump away.

*{{AP|Buizel}}
:Ice Aqua Jet: a combination of an {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Aqua Jet}}. It was attempted first in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'' as a contest combination, invented by {{an|Dawn}}. Later, it was perfected by {{Ash}} and used in the [[Wallace Cup]] as well as the battle between Ash and [[Crasher Wake]].

*{{p|Eevee}}
:Rage Tackle: used by [[Mikey]]'s {{p|Eevee}} in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]''

*{{p|Flareon}}
:Flaming Tackle: used by [[Egan]]'s Flareon in ''[[EP231|Some Like It Hot]]''

*{{AP|Pikachu}}
:Volt Tail: a combination of {{m|Iron Tail}} and {{m|Volt Tackle}}. An improvised move where Pikachu starts off with Volt Tackle and pulls out Iron tail a second before it hits. Used against [[Sho]]'s Raichu in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]''.


==In the TCG==


The [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] frequently invents new moves for Pokémon to use.

Moves not in the Pokémon games

2009-04-22T04:42:01Z

Da Rammo: /* In the TCG */

{{incomplete}}
This is a '''list of moves that have appeared in the anime, manga, and TCG that have not appeared in the games'''.

==In Pokémon Special==
*[[Pika|Red's Pikachu]]
:MegaVolt: a stronger version of {{m|Thunderbolt}} (10 times the strength), used to defeat [[Lance]].

*{{Special|Gold}}'s {{p|Pichu}}
:Super Rising Thunder: A stronger version of {{m|Thunder}}, used to defeat the [[Mask of Ice]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Thunderarmor.png|frame|right|150px|{{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Swellow}} using Thunder Armor]]
;*{{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Swellow}}
:Thunder Armor: Pikachu uses {{m|Thunder}} on itself and Swellow. This improvised technique increased both Pikachu and Swellow's {{Stat|Speed}} and {{Stat|Attack}}, and were able to subdue their opponents with relative ease afterwards.

*{{AP|Pidgeotto}}
:Gust Counter-Attack: a variation of {{m|Gust}}, used to force the foe to evade. This technique was used only once by Ash's Pidgeotto in ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon]]''. Pidgeotto slams its wings together, creating a small air flow around his wings forcing [[Jessie's Ekans]] to jump away.

*{{AP|Buizel}}
:Ice Aqua Jet: a combination of an {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Aqua Jet}}. It was attempted first in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'' as a contest combination, invented by {{an|Dawn}}. Later, it was perfected by {{Ash}} and used in the [[Wallace Cup]] as well as the battle between Ash and [[Crasher Wake]].

*{{p|Eevee}}
:Rage Tackle: used by [[Mikey]]'s {{p|Eevee}} in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]''

*{{p|Flareon}}
:Flaming Tackle: used by [[Egan]]'s Flareon in ''[[EP231|Some Like It Hot]]''

*{{AP|Pikachu}}
:Volt Tail: a combination of {{m|Iron Tail}} and {{m|Volt Tackle}}. An improvised move where Pikachu starts off with Volt Tackle and pulls out Iron tail a second before it hits. Used against [[Sho]]'s Raichu in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]''.


==In the TCG==


The [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] frequently invents new moves for Pokémon to use.

'''Pikachu's Goodbye''' (Japanese: '''ピカチュウのもり''' ''Forest of Pikachu'') is the 39th episode of the {{g|anime}}. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 16, 1998 and in the United States on November 20, 1998. It was created in response to the [[EP038]] incident, and did not appear in the original schedule.

Notably, it is also, with ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'', the first hour-long Pokémon special.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}}, [[Misty]], and [[Brock]] are resting in the forest. Ash starts to swing on vines, but he slams into a tree. {{AP|Pikachu}} comes over to see if Ash is all right and sees a baby {{p|Pikachu}}. Ash and Pikachu run after it and Misty and Brock follow to see a whole clan of Pikachu and the baby Pikachu. Pikachu says hello but the {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Pikachu}} get scared and runs off. Pikachu starts to walk away but the baby Pikachu comes over and shakes tails with it. Brock says it must have accepted Ash's Pikachu. Ash runs toward them, yelling that he wants to be part of their group, but he scares them and they run away. The baby Pikachu falls into a river and Ash's Pikachu jumps in to get it. The Pikachu all start joining tails to save them and they succeed.

Meanwhile, [[Team Rocket]] sees the Pikachu and decides that they will capture them for the [[Giovanni|boss]].

At night, all the Pikachu start chanting the Pikachu chant. Ash and {{ashfr|his friends}} watch and see how happy Pikachu is. Ash is sad but says it is nothing. He stays up while Misty and Brock sleep and sees Pikachu's face in the fire. He thinks maybe Pikachu should be with its own kind. The fire goes out and the Pikachu scream for help. They are captured in a net which is, as [[Jessie]] says, electric-proof. [[James]] shoots a net at Ash and his friends, but they get out of it very easily. Team Rocket starts sailing away with the Pikachu but Ash's Pikachu begins chewing at the net and breaks it. Ash and his friends hold up the net they were captured in and the Pikachu jump in it unharmed. Ash's Pikachu bites a hole in the balloon and Team Rocket blasts off again. Ash starts to walk away without Pikachu and Misty and Brock ask him why. He says Pikachu would be happier here. Pikachu starts following but Ash yells at it to stay behind. He runs away and remembers a lot about Pikachu.

Finally, Ash stops and Misty and Brock catch up to him. Behind Ash, his Pikachu shakes tails with the baby Pikachu and all the wild Pikachu start chanting. Pikachu runs into Ash's arms. Ash is touched and starts to cry. The episode ends with Ash and Pikachu hugging.

== Trivia ==
* This episode was created after the [[EP038]] incident: the episode schedule did not include it before the incident. The original EP039 was supposed to be ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]''.
** The net Team Rocket uses is called the "Seizure Net". Coincidencially, this episode is the episode that aired right after [[EP038|the seizure episode]] in Japan.

* This is the most recent episode in which wild Pikachu appear.
* A short version of ''[[Goodnight, my Pikachu]]'' can be heard.

'''Brock's Marshtomp''' (Japanese: '''タケシのヌマクロー''' ''Takeshi's Numacraw'') was the second [[Pokémon]] acquired by [[Brock]] in [[Hoenn]], and his seventh altogether. Its Japanese voice actor is 三木眞一郎 ''[[Shin'ichirō Miki]]'' and its English voice actress is [[Kayzie Rogers|Jamie Peacock]]. As a Mudkip, it was voiced by 林原めぐみ ''[[Megumi Hayashibara]]'' in Japanese and [[Lindsey Warner]] ([[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] dub) and [[Michele Knotz]] ({{PUSA}} dub) in English.

==History==
[[Image:Brock'sMudkip.jpg|left|thumb|As a {{p|Mudkip}}]]
Brock caught Mudkip in ''[[AG025|A Mudkip Mission]]''. Mudkip lived at a pond where a number of Mudkip were {{pkmn|Breeding|bred}}. While most of the Pokémon left the pond as they grew older, the one that Brock caught was already mature and acted as a guardian of the younger, smaller Mudkip. It joined Brock and left the pond after he helped it rescue itself and the younger Mudkip from a [[Team Rocket]] attack.

In ''[[AG148|A Chip Off the Old Brock]]'', Mudkip evolved into a Marshtomp during a training battle versus [[Ash's Grovyle]]. It then became smitten with a {{p|Flaaffy}}, as Brock was smitten by its trainer.

Marshtomp is among the more behaved of the gang's Pokémon. It is often seen helping [[Ash's Pikachu]] break up scuffles between Pokémon. Being a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon, it usually worked with [[Brock's Ludicolo]] to launch double {{m|Water Gun}} attacks. It is also called upon to search for things underwater. It is also often used to help track down a missing Pokémon or object (usually due to Team Rocket stealing it) using the fin on its head as a radar.

Brock left his Marshtomp at the [[Pewter Gym]] when he decided to join {{Ash}} in the [[Sinnoh]] region.

==Moves used==
* {{m|Water Gun}}
* {{m|Mud Shot}}
* {{m|Tackle}}
* {{m|Protect}}

==In the TCG==
Brock's Marshtomp was featured in the TCG multiple times. The following is a list of cards named either '''Brock's Mudkip''' or '''Brock's Marshtomp'''.

==Trivia==
*Out of the main characters' Hoenn [[starter Pokémon]], Marshtomp is the only one that didn't fully evolve.
*Before Brock captured Marshtomp (as a Mudkip), it acted tough to protect [[Old Man Swamp]]'s Mudkip, similar to [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] who protected a village of Pokémon from intruders.
*This is Brock's second Pokémon to fall in love. The first was {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]''.
*Out of all Pokémon belonging to the main cast, Mudkip took the longest to evolve while its Trainer was continuously part of the main cast ({{an|May}}'s {{TP|May|Squirtle}} and {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} were revealed after her 76-episode absence, [[Brock]]'s {{TP|Brock|Zubat}} evolved after Brock's return from his [[Orange Islands]] absence, [[Misty]]'s {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} evolved after Misty's 45-episode absence, {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Phanpy}} evolved after he picked it up at Professor Oak's lab near the end of the {{series|Advanced Generation}} (having been hatched in Johto), and Brock's {{TP|Brock|Onix}} evolved under [[Forrest|his brother]]'s care).

'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is [[Team Galactic]]'s leader.

Cyrus disregards all emotions, thinking of them as products of a weak human heart. His goal is to remake the {{pkmn|universe}} in his own image, with himself as the god. He was born and raised in [[Sunyshore City]], as noted in {{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}} by an elderly couple residing there. When Cyrus was young, he was a very good student; however, he was antisocial, preferring the company of machines over humans.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Cyrus anime.jpg|thumb|left|240px|Cyrus in the anime]]
He made his first appearance in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', along with [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]]. It was revealed that he is a rich businessman who has made most of the buildings and libraries throughout [[Sinnoh]]. However, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|the others}} do not know that he is also the [[Team Galactic]] leader. Using his businessman alter-ego, he visits the [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]] while the remaining members of [[Team Galactic]] carry out a plan to steal the [[Lustrous Orb]] from the Research Center, after having already stolen the [[Adamant Orb]] from its Eterna City police escort.

He discovers from {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} that they have seen {{p|Azelf}} and {{p|Mesprit}} when the two tell of their encounters with the mysterious Pokémon at [[Lake Verity]] and [[Lake Valor]]. This apparently intrigues him, indicating that he will have future, possibly not as friendly, encounters with the group.

He appeared again in [[DP111]]. He was seen in Team Galactic's headquarters alongside Saturn and Jupiter as well as [[Charon]]. They were coordinating Mars' mission on [[Iron Island]] and using a beam launched with the [[Spear Key]] to scan energy readings from the [[Spear Pillar]]. However, Mars' machine was destroyed when the scan had reached only 60%, presumably ruining their mission. Despite this, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged.

The player first meets him in [[Mt. Coronet]], but he does not battle, nor give his name. Later on, the two men guarding [[Lake Valor]] will mention his name in passing, though Cyrus himself is not identified until he introduces himself after the {{player}} defeats a [[Galactic Grunt]] and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]].

Upon being defeated at Mt. Coronet, Cyrus claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]].

====Quotes====
=====Mt. Coronet=====
''According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded.. There should have been no strife. But what became of that world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has appeared... This world is being ruined by it...I find the state of things to be deplorable...''
=====Celestic Town=====
''There appears to have been an insignificant struggle here. Everyone should step back and view things from a bigger perspective. Yes, a bigger perspective, one that is on a universal scale. My name is Cyrus. I seek the power to create a new world, a world without strife. However that power seems to be unavailable here... We've met before, yes? It was at Mt. Coronet. If you discover any power derived from the legends of Sinnoh, inform me. For that power is what I need to create my new world.
=====Team Galactic HQ=====
*Before battle:
''I see. You must be the Trainer I've been hearing about. The foolhardy one that's trying to stand up to Team Galactic. Although I'd hardly expected to see that the Trainer is a mere child. I'd heard that our Commanders had a rough time with you... I know why you're here, I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead, I could care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing of them.''

''But I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they not? But still you came to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and lacking human heart. You were compelled to come here by vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!''
*After sending out last Pokémon:
''My last Pokémon.''

*During battle:
''I see... I may lose if this pace continues...''

*When defeated:
''Interesting and quite curious.''

*After battle:
''I see. You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion toward Pokémon. How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless sentimentality. But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognise that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward.''

''The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own. If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. That's correct. Mt. Coronet. Where you and I first met. I will ascend the mountain to its peak and put an end to everything... No. I will bring about a new beginning for everything...''

=====Spear Pillar=====
''Now all will end. And everything will begin. With this [[Red Chain]] I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash all your power for me... {{p|Dialga}}/{{p|Palkia}} the mythical Pokémon and the master of time/space. This will bring about the destruction of all things. With everything gone, there will be no fighting and no strife. Can you feel time/space distorting? Only I can choose to stop it. This is the mythical Pokémon that created Sinnoh! Dialga/Palkia the ancient deity of time/space! This world cannot be molded into the ultimate world I seek! It's far easier to create an entirely new world than to change this one! A new world in which I am the ruler of all things! I shall become a deity!''

''Oh! Dialga/Palkia... This is... Fantastic! Beautiful! It's the creating of a new galaxy! My new world! ... Wh-what?!''

*Before battle:
''The Red Chain! It crumbled away to nothing?! But why? Why would {{p|Mesprit}}, the Pokémon of Lake Verity, appear by your side? But never mind that! It's all destroyed! My galaxy is gone! I won't allow this... I will capture those three again and craft another Red Chain! But before I even think about that, I'm going to completely crush you!

*After sending out last Pokémon:
''I admit that you have pushed me to this extreme.''

*During battle:
''This... this cannot be! It's not possible that I lose!''

*When defeated:
''I won't admit this! The power spoken of in mythology... I didn't just make it obey me, I made it my own!''

*After battle:
''What is truly ultimate to you? What do you consider perfection? The most important thing... What shines the brightest... Telling you is meaningless. But I will not give up. I will become a deity one day... And I will make the ultimate mine...'''

====Quotes====
=====Lake Verity=====
''...The flowing time... The expanding space... I will make it all mine one day... Cyrus is my name. Remember it... Until then, sleep while you can, legendary Pokémon of the lake bed....''

''Allow me to pass. Step aside.''

==In the manga==
==={{g|Special}}===
Cyrus makes his first appearance when {{Special|Diamond}}, {{Special|Pearl}}, and {{Special|Platina}} are at the reception office to [[Mt. Coronet]].

====Pokémon====
Cyrus has these Pokémon:

===[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!|Pokémon DP]]===
{{spoilers}}
Cyrus first appears in volume 2, watching [[Mitsumi]]'s contest. He tells [[Hareta]] that he is an old friend of Mitsumi's. His next appearance is in Celestic Town at the ruins, where his name and the objectives of [[Team Galactic]] are revealed. Hareta later engages him in a battle, Weavile versus Piplup. During it he realizes he is actually enjoying the battle, causing him to freak out and send out his Gyarados who shatters the bridge they were battling on, sending Hareta and Piplup into the water.

==Names==
The majority of Cyrus's names refer to the Sun; this fits in with the Commanders' planetary naming scheme, and may be a reference to how Cyrus would figuratively hold the Sun's position as center of his new world.

==Trivia==
* His Japanese name, {{wp|Akagi}}, is a common surname in Japan, which may indicate that, like [[Giovanni]], his name in Japan is merely his last name, leaving his first unknown. "Akagi" also means "red castle", "red tree", or "red future", the last of which may reference the many deaths that would have taken place if his scheme had come to fruition. It may also refer to the "red chain" which Cyrus needs to summon the legendary Pokémon, {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}, at the [[Spear Pillar]]. It could also be in reference to Planet X, also known as the Red Planet, Nibiru, Wormwood, Quetzalcoatl, and many more names. It is an apocalyptic conspiracy, but there are many different theories about what exactly it is.
** Incidentally, there is a volcano called Akagi in the real-world [[wp:Kantō region|Kanto region]] of Japan.
* An old couple in [[Sunyshore City]] mentions that Cyrus was born and raised there. It also happens that [[Team Galactic]] has never attacked the city, perhaps because the leader, Cyrus himself, still has childhood memories of it, or maybe because their scheme was stopped before they could reach Sunyshore.
* Until [[Charon]]'s introduction, Cyrus was the only one of the four major characters of Team Galactic that does not share a name with a planet.

'''Milotic''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミロカロス''' ''Milokaross'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Feebas}} by level-up with max [[Beauty Contest|Beauty]] condition.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Milotic's appearance is similar to that of a sea serpent. The top of its head is long, with a point at the end, and long hair-like fins drape from the sides of the head. Its lower tail is covered with blue and pink scales, and four large scales overlap at the tip of the tail to look like a fan. Milotic is described in the Pokédex as breathtakingly beautiful.

====Gender differences====
The female's eyebrow fins are longer than the male's.

====Special abilities====
Milotic have the ability to calm their enemies by removing their negative feelings, this suggests that they possess empathetic abilities similar to some species of psychic Pokémon.

===Behavior===
Milotic is a peaceful Pokémon that typically tries to avoid battles. It appears to dislike conflict, and will even appear before arguing humans in an attempt to calm their minds. It is a historically significant Pokémon, and has been depicted in many works of art.

===Habitat===

[[Image:JohannaMilotic.jpg|left|thumb|[[Johanna]] and her Milotic in Dawn's dream in ''[[DP043|Malice in Wonderland]]''.]]
Milotic first appeared under the ownership of {{ho|Robert}} in ''[[AG035|Win, Lose or Drew!]]''. Robert used Milotic again for the [[Grand Festival]].

[[Juan's Milotic]] was first seen in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]''. Juan used it against {{Ash}} for the Gym Battle in [[AG111|the following episode]], being his strongest and last Pokémon.

{{DL|Battle Frontier (Hoenn)|Battle Pike}} Queen {{FB|Pike Queen|Lucy}} used a Milotic to battle against [[Ash's Donphan]] and {{AP|Pikachu}} in ''[[AG158|Queen of the Serpentine]]''. Lucy's Milotic defeated the former of the two and lost to the latter.

In ''[[DP043|Malice in Wonderland!]]'', a Feebas under the ownership of [[Johanna]] evolved into a Milotic, though it was only an illusion created by {{p|Mismagius}}.
[[Image:WallaceWithMilotic.png|thumb|right|Wallace and his Milotic.]]

A {{TP|Wallace|Milotic}} appeared in ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]'' under [[Wallace]]'s ownership as his main Contest Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* In the anime, with the exception of [[Pike Queen Lucy]], all of the Milotic that appeared were under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] or at least a part-time coordinator.
* Milotic is the only Pokémon so far to have a particular [[gender differences|gender difference]] visible only in its shiny form; The female Milotic has blue eyebrows while the males' are red. This applies to {{v|Platinum}} only. Also, the difference is not visible from the back, due to Platinum sharing back sprites with Diamond and Pearl.
===Origin===
Milotic may be based loosely on {{wp|sirens}}, mythical creatures who can hypnotize with their voice to make men attracted to them. An argument can also be made for the possibility it is loosely based on {{wp|Loch Ness Monster and popular culture|The Loch Ness Monster}}. Its similarity to {{p|Dragonair}} suggests as basis in sea serpents or sea dragons as well.

====Name origin====
Milotic's name may be a combination of ''melodic'' and ''Milo'', as in the sculpture ''{{wp|Venus de Milo}}'', which is known for being an example of beauty, and like Milotic, possesses no arms. Its Japanese name may be a combination of the aforementioned ''Milo'' and the {{wp|Greek language|Greek}} καλλονή ''kalloni'', meaning beauty or Χάρις ''charis'', beauty, elegance, charm, or grace. See also {{wp|Charites}}.

Milotic also have a wide range of healing and defensive moves, so its name may also be a variation on mitotic, descriptive of the healing process of a body part through {{wp|mitosis}}.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Milotic
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Milobellus - From ''Venus de Milo'' and ''bella'' (Italian for "pretty").

Event Pokémon

2009-02-25T06:38:13Z

Da Rammo: /* Generation II */

'''Event Pokémon''' are Pokémon that are distributed at Nintendo promotional events, such as movie premiers, expositions, festivals, places like PokéPark, real-life Pokémon Center stores and sometimes found in bonus disks or specially transfered from another game. They typically have a [[List_of_notable_ID_numbers|special OT and ID #]] indicating their authenticity, and usually a [[Classic Ribbon|special promotional Ribbon]] from Generation III onward. In Generation IV, all event Pokémon are distributed in [[Pok%C3%A9_Ball#In_the_games_4|Cherish Ball]]s, special [[Poké Ball]]s that exist solely to be used for this purpose. Event Pokémon are usually desired because they know at least one special move that would otherwise be impossible for them to learn via leveling up, TMs, move tutors, or even breeding.

==Generation I==
* {{p|Mew}}: Mew is obtainable only in Nintendo promotional events, historically through a direct trade. Mew can also be obtained by using the [[Mew glitch]]. The Mew glitch also enable countless other normal and rarely-seen [[Glitch|glitched Pokémon]] to be seen and captured, although some of them have been known to cause trouble to people's games.

==Generation II==
* {{p|Celebi}}: In the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, players could use the {{g|Mobile System}} to obtain a [[GS Ball]] as an [[event item]] which they could take to [[Ilex Forest]]. Using it at the forest's shrine would prompt an encounter where a wild {{p|Celebi}} could be encountered.

In Australia in 2001, an event Celebi was available only via direct trade. No event for Celebi was available to players outside of these areas though.

==Generation III==
* {{p|Mew}}: The [[Old Sea Map]] e-card could be obtained from an event which could then be scanned for players of {{pkmn|Emerald}} to receive the item in-game. It could then be used to access [[Faraway Island]] where Mew could be found.
* {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}: The [[Mystic Ticket]] e-card could be obtained from an event, allowing players to access [[Navel Rock]] in-game by using the item in {{pkmn|FireRed and LeafGreen}} or Emerald. Lugia and Ho-Oh could then be found there.
* {{p|Celebi}}: A Japanese Bonus Disc for Pokémon Colosseum allows players to receive Celebi.
* {{p|Jirachi}}: People who pre-ordered {{pkmn|Colosseum}} would receive a bonus disk that could download a Jirachi to their GBA game. In Europe, Jirachi can be downloaded from {{pkmn|Channel}} after the game is completed.
* {{p|Deoxys}}: The [[Aurora Ticket]] e-card could be obtained in an event, allowing players to access [[Birth Island]] and battle Deoxys after completing a puzzle.

==Generation IV==
* {{p|Darkrai}}: Movie-going players of {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} were given a Darkrai with the special moves {{m|Roar of Time}} and {{m|Spacial Rend}} to commemorate the movie ''[[The Rise of Darkrai|Dialga VS Palkia VS Darkrai]]''. Darkrai can also be obtained after doing a mission in [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]] and transferring it over to {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. This Darkrai has {{m|Dark Void}} even though it is level 50. The [[Member Card]], which grants access to [[Newmoon Island]], is available for download to Japanese Platinum games via the {{wp|Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection}}.
* {{p|Shaymin}}: Movie-going players were given a Shaymin to commemorate the movie, ''[[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|Giratina and the Sky's Bouquet: Shaymin]]''. Shaymin is located at the [[Flower Paradise]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, which can be accessed from [[Route 224]] after obtaining [[Oak's Letter]].
* {{p|Arceus}}: Currently it is not possible to legitimately obtain an Arceus (or the [[Azure Flute]]). In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} it is located in the [[Hall of Origin]], accessible after playing the Azure Flute atop [[Mt. Coronet]].

==Nintendo promotional event Pokémon==
Periodically, [[Nintendo]] hosts or sponsors parties and events for fans, often in connection to the premier of a new {{pkmn|game}} or {{pkmn|movie}}. They are especially notable in that certain rare [[Pokémon]] and [[item]]s in the games, as well as cards and other things, are only available for a limited time from them. The methods used to transfer Pokémon and items to a game have varied over time, and include direct [[trade#link cable|link trading]], wireless reception from a '''Wonder Spot''' via [[Mystery Gift]], or physical reception from an [[Pokémon Battle e Promotional Cards|e-Card]] via [[Mystery Events]]; other methods may occur in the future.

Note that all of the Pokémon with specific natures cannot have a different nature, gender and ability and they cannot be shiny. For Pokémon obtained in [[Generation IV]], the dates do not need to be the dates the events were held. This is because the date is based on the one set on the DS.

Da Rammo: /* Celebi */

I got a Mew in December, 1999 from a special promotion; it's what got me into Pokémon in the first place... I think it happened on December 15 of that year, but I can't remember for sure. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 06:51, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

== PBR Pokemon ==

Should the Pokémon you get in Mystery Gifts from PBR, (Pikachu, Elictivire, and Magmortar) be included in this article? I was thinking they may count as Event Pokémon as well. [[User:Superbreeder|Super]][[User talk:Superbreeder|breeder]] 21:24, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
:I added all. [[User: Tc26|'''tc''']][[User talk: Tc26|'''2''']][[Special: Contributions/Tc26|'''6''']] 03:07, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

== Are they still in "unfair mode"? ==

Just to ask, I'd like to know if Nintendo still offers these event Pokémon only when you physically move your butt into a certain event at some city. If, then I'm disappointed since as I live in Finland we've had as much as ONE Nintendo event so far, and that was in Helsinki, which is about 200km (124 miles) from where I reside. So, do they now offer them via Wi-Fi as well or is it still almost-only-Japan&America stuff?

:They've offered one Wi-Fi event, but it was for Japan only, and it was for a key item that unlocked the secrets of one Pokémon species. It's possible they could distribute event Pokémon over Wi-Fi in the future. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 23:01, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

''Not'' all event Pokémon come in Cherish Balls. My ''MYSTRY'' Mew is in a Pokéball. So shouldn't it say "most come in Cherish Balls some come in Pokéballs"? [[List_of_Nintendo_event_Pok%C3%A9mon_in_2006#Toys_.22R.22_Us_Mew|See here.]] [[User:Sivart345|Sivart345]] 20:36, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

'''Exeggcute''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''タマタマ''' ''Tamatama'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Exeggutor}} by {{evostone|Leaf Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Exeggcute resemble light pink eggs. The shells have some cracks on them (and may even have their yolk/brain exposed). Despite obviously looking like eggs, Exeggcute are actually similar to plant seeds.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Exeggcute are capable of several {{t|Grass}}- and {{type2|Psychic}} moves, like {{m|Dream Eater}}, which combines well with its two sleep moves, {{m|Sleep Powder}} and {{m|Hypnosis}}. Exeggcute use a special kind of telepathy that always makes them form groups of six.

Exeggcute, and its evolved form, {{p|Exeggutor}}, are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learn {{m|Barrage}}.

Unusually for {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon, Exeggcute and {{p|Exeggutor}} are unable to learn {{m|Calm Mind}} without a cheating device.

===Behavior===
These Pokémon gather together in swarms of six. They communicate with each other by using a form of telepathy that only they can understand.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Forest.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Forest Pokémon|Forest Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Animexeggcute.jpg|frame|right|Exeggcute in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]Exeggcute first appeared in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. The Egg Pokémon was owned by an incompetent magician named [[Melvin]]. Exeggcute managed to hypnotize {{Ash}} and Melvin forced Ash to capture a bunch of {{p|Exeggutor}}. Melvin's Exeggcute managed to [[evolve]], but without using a [[Leaf Stone]].

Exeggcute also appeared in ''[[Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]''. {{AP|Pikachu}} and company, plus an {{p|Elekid}}, found [[Misty's Togepi]] hanging around an Exeggcute that was missing a member of its batch. It evolved when all the eggs were back together, standing on a Leaf Stone.

==In the manga==
[[Bill]] is seen with an Exeggcute in [[Pokémon Special]]. Prior to the events of {{PSV|23}}, it has since evolved into {{p|Exeggutor}}.

==Trivia==
*Exeggcute is one of five Pokémon with seven weaknesses, the others being its evolution {{p|Exeggutor}}, {{p|Snover}} and {{p|Abomasnow}}, and the [[Legendary Pokémon|legendary]] {{p|Celebi}}.
*Most of Exeggcute's sprites show the middle "egg" being larger than the rest, particularly in the {{2v2|Red|Blue}} sprite.
*Exeggcute shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Chansey}}. They are both known as Egg Pokémon.
*Every sprite to this very date (excluding back sprites) has shown at least one ''broken'' egg, which is shown most prominently in the {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} backsprites. The other eggs are 'cracked'.
*Its sprite for Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald is nearly the reverse of its Silver sprite.
*Exeggcute's broken egg has a face on the back of its head, as shown in [[My Pokémon Ranch|Pokémon Ranch]].
*In ''Pikachu's Rescue Adventure'', it's hinted that each of Exeggcute's members may have an individual sense of identity, even though they are all considered to be just one Pokémon.
*The only backsprites featuring all six of Exeggcute's eggs were generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|IV}}. The others only feature four eggs.

===Origin===
It appears to be a mixture of a batch of eggs as well as a set of coconuts.

====Name origin====
Exeggcute's name is a play on the phrase "eggs are cute." It is also a play on the word ''execute''. ''Tamatama'' could be taken to mean 偶々, unexpectedly, although it is more likely to be derived from 玉 ''tama'', sphere, doubled. It is worth noting that the Japanese word for egg is 卵 ''tamago''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Owei
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Noeunoeuf - Comes from the word ''oeuf'' pronounced twice. ''Oeuf'' means egg.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 아라리 ''Arari''

I just heard from a guy named Karasu on [http://s3.invisionfree.com/PokespecialTK PsTK's forum] that the reason the English games were called Red and Blue was:

''They changed red and green to red and blue, to show their respects for America. Her national flag consits of red, blue and white. Game freak said so...''

Anyone know if this is accurate? [[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]] 20:48, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

Aren't these two pokémon version exclusive in red and blue?

== Scyther/Pinsir ==

Aren't these two pokémon version exclusive in red and blue? Scyther cannot be obtained in Blue's Game corner (As the [[Scyther (pokémon)]] page says) and it can also not be caught in Blue's Safari zone. I believe vice versa is true for Pinsir.

'''Pidgeotto''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピジョン''' ''Pigeon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Pidgey}} starting at [[level]] 18, and evolves into {{p|Pidgeot}} starting at level 36.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pidgeotto is a large raptor-like bird. While its primary color is brown, its plumage is much more elaborate than its pre-evolution {{p|Pidgey}}. Its head-crest is much longer that Pidgey's and is a reddish color. The plumage of its tail is also quite colorful, alternating between red and yellow. Other than its ornamental plumage, its basic coloration is similar to Pidgey, with pinkish-gray feet and black markings around its eye. Pidgeotto has powerful talons to grasp prey so these claws can inflict a lot of damage.
====Gender differences====
None.
====Special abilities====
As well as being a powerful flier, it is capable of carrying prey several miles to its nest. Pidgeotto have an amazing sense of sight and hearing. It's eyesight is so good that is can spot a {{p|Caterpie}} several miles up in the air. Pidgeotto usually have two to three {{p2|Pidgey|chicks}}, but usually only one survives. They have a tendency to only feed the same chick so that one of them survives.

===Behavior===
After evolution, Pidgeotto assumes a predatory niche. It claims a sprawling territory (more than 60 miles) and will fiercely defend it from intruders. One must be careful when moving through the territory of a Pidgeotto, while there is no evidence that they would attack a human, their keen eyesight and sharp claws could cause a lot of damage. Although its nest is usually in the center of its territory, it circles its territory throughout the day: looking out for prey and intruders.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Forest.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Forest Pokémon|Forest Pokémon]]]]
Pidgeotto typically dwell in forests with thick growth and large trees. They need a lot of space, and are very territorial, so it can be assumed that their territories usually do not overlap.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Pidgeotto, although omnivorous like most Pokémon, appears to prefer preying on other Pokémon such as {{p|Exeggcute}}. Both the anime and [[Pokémon Special]] have shown it attempting to eat a main character's {{p|Caterpie}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Ash_and_Pigeotto.jpg|thumb|Ash with his {{AP|Pidgeotto}}]]
In the anime, {{AP|Pidgeotto}} played a role as one of [[Ash Ketchum]]'s Pokémon. It participated in the [[Gym]] battles against [[Team Rocket]], [[Brock]] and [[Misty]], was frequently used for breaking [[Team Rocket]]'s {{p|Meowth}}-shaped balloon, and was the only one of Ash's Pokémon at the time, save some of his numerous {{AP|Tauros}}, not to participate in the [[Indigo League Conference]]. It eventually evolved into {{p|Pidgeot}} and left Ash's party to guard other Pidgey and Pidgeotto.

[[Vladimir]] owns a Pidgeotto which knows {{M|Aerial Ace}}. He uses it to demonstrate to other trainers, like {{Ash}} and [[Ash's Swellow|his Swellow]], how to use the {{type2|Flying}} attack.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Special]], [[Falkner]] owns a Pidgeotto.

In [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]], Ash gave his Pidgeotto the name of "Walter" and it appeared several times.

==Trivia==
*To fit the [[anime]], in which {{Ash}} captures a {{AP|Pidgeotto}} before getting to [[Pewter City]], in {{game|Yellow}} Pidgeotto was made available in [[Viridian Forest]] at [[level]] 9. However, there is only a 1% chance of finding it.
*Despite the description in the Red/Blue Pokédex, Pidgeotto does not learn [[peck]].

==Origin==
Despite its name, its design appears to be less of a pigeon and more of an {{wp|osprey}} or other {{wp|bird of prey}}.
===Name origin===
Its name is a corruption of ''{{wp|dove|pigeon}}'', a common bird; its Japanese name clearly refers to said species of bird. Its name could also possibly refer to {{wp|Otto Lilienthal}}, a pioneer of unpowered heavier-than-air flight.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Tauboga - An extension of ''Taube'', meaning "pigeon".
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Roucoups - ''Roucoule'' means coo, and ''coups'' most likely means strikes in this context.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 피죤 ''Pijyon''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 比比鸟 ''Bî Bî Nîao'' - Transliteration of the first part of Pidgeotto's Japanese name, Pigeon. The last character literally means bird.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 比比鳥 ''Bî Bî Nîao''
