DasRagnerokGPR:

Hmm.. I have been putting Pokemon Trainer, not Pokemon trainer on nearly everything until I actually looked at this page. I'm not really sure why it isn't Trainer. It's not technically a proper noun, but I figure everything in the game that's in all caps (items, pokemon, etc.) should probably be considered proper noun enough to be given a capital letter. *shrugs* Just my input. At any rate, from now on I'll put trainer. --[[user:greengiant|greengiant]]
:Given that in the new games, they say "Trainer" with a capital T, I think it should probably be changed. [[User:TrainerXiam|TrainerXiam]] 22:25, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

== Disambig? ==
Okay, um... what's the reasoning behind the disambig, anyway? And... why didn't you categorize it, PLKM? '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 08:41, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
:<nowiki>*</nowiki>sigh* This news is making the fandom go crazy. I am definately against this disambiguation, especially as the trivia section of the Pokémon Trainer article makes the link with Red a lot clearer. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 13:02, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

I dunno... SSBB may call the character "Pokémon Trainer", but we all know it's Red. I don't see how come we can't just... link to Red. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 08:39, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
:I think the idea is that it is a Pokémon Trainer is more important than who it is designed on. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 13:04, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
::I really don't see why this disambig is needed. Not to mention this particular user didn't go through and fix all the links to the disambig. Besides, if people get confused, we can just add a note to the top of the page similar to [[Erika]] or [[Forrest]]. I'm in support of reverting it. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 14:12, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
::I agree with Fabu-Vinny on what's important. Who knows if there will be a different "avatar" for the Super Smash Bros. Brawl Pokémon Trainer. I think we need to add an anchor to the SSBB section on the link to the Red article. --[[User:Johans|Johans]] 17:39, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
:::I think we should just wait to see if Leaf and Blue get included in this. '''[[User:TTEchidna|TTE]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 01:04, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

== Eye contact rule ==

Haven't there been numerous instances where this does not occur? Here is a list of times I can find:
* HGSS: Going to the house of the trainer of the opposite gender (the one with Marill) and looking strainght at them
* All: Looking directly at already-beaten trainers
* GenIV: Going to the Union Room and talking to a trainer there; you have the option of battling, but you don't have to
* All(?): Going up to the Gym Leader - the battle takes place if you press A, if they haven't been defeated.
* Battle Tower: Selecting a partner trainer for the Double Battle Tower
...and the list goes on, not just in the games. The Anime doesn't seem to follow this rule at all. However, I don't know how the rule should instead be written. In any case, the trainers who use that rule are partially mistaken. [[User:TruePikachu|--TruePikachu]] 02:45, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

== Trainers Speculation ==

Ok, so we conclude that most trainers appears in 2D in battle. Does anyone believe that the next Generation VI game might display all trainers in 3D instead of the 2D drawing? {{unsigned|Luinceañera}}
:What? How should we know? That's up to Game Freak to decide. And sign your comments with four tildes. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 10:14, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

== Appearance section ==

This section can shown the characters with the title as Red and others in the main gameplay? --[[User:HoopsterJohn|HoopsterJohn]] ([[User talk:HoopsterJohn|talk]]) 20:33, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Only better with all including the former Straiton Gym Leaders in B2W2, AZ and Emma in X and Y. --[[User:HoopsterJohn|HoopsterJohn]] ([[User talk:HoopsterJohn|talk]]) 20:30, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
:Considering how much artwork there is just from player character's alone this would be pretty cluttered. Since this is a page about trainers in general, having an appearance section that's just player characters and some amount of NPCs, it would be pretty pointless. --[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 20:52, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
:At least can added in the as Trainer Class section the former Straiton Gym Leaders, AZ and Emma in the text? --[[User:HoopsterJohn|HoopsterJohn]] ([[User talk:HoopsterJohn|talk]]) 19:03, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

== Sections for trainers not in other classes ==

We need to add a specific PKMN/Pokémon Trainer section for Trainers who don't fit in other classes, such as Cal and Carrie. They aren't listed anywhere in the main article and they're only known as PKMN Trainers.[[User:Blob55|Blob55]] ([[User talk:Blob55|talk]]) 19:16, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
:I'm not sure what you're thinking when you want a section on this page for them, but I don't know if a dedicated section here is really the best. If anything, I kind of feel like just putting a category on their pages would be better, or even possibly a whole new page that's "Pokemon Trainer (Trainer class)". [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 19:36, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
::[[Pokémon_Trainer#As_a_Trainer_class|There is a dedicated section for them]], but I like the idea of a separate page. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 20:00, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
:::That's what I meant, SnorlaxMonster, but actually listing ALL trainers under PKMN/Pokémon Trainer. Instead just the Rivals, Stat Trainers, Team Plasma Leaders and PWT opponents. There are various GSC opponents listed nowhere in this document. It's hard to know where all the Trainers are in the games, if not all of them are listed in the right sections. [[User:Blob55|Blob55]] ([[User talk:Blob55|talk]]) 00:01, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
::::Can we please fix it so that the Pokémon Trainer page lists all Trainers under PKMN/Pokémon Trainer? Not everyone has a specific trainer class name. Also, listing some in general isn't good enough. [[User:Blob55|Blob55]] ([[User talk:Blob55|talk]]) 11:24, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

== Generation VII new Trainer classes list clogged ==

The list of Trainer classes introduced in [[Generation VII]] has clogged the rest of the Pokémon Trainer page and within the orange box continues from the Super Smash Bros. series section to the end of the page. After the list was added, the rest of the page got caught in the box. This has to be fixed. --[[User:Cinday123|Cinday123]] ''([[User talk:Cinday123|Talk]])'' 07:17, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

== Psychic/Proprietor Inver ==
In X and Y, a trainer on Route 18 can be fought to do an inverse battle. On the actual page for inverse battles, he is referred to as a Psychic, but in game and on his own page he is referred to under the trainer class Proprietor, which is not listed here. Given that he still uses the Psychic sprite and is the only trainer of this trainer class, I'm debating on if this should go here or not. --[[User:DasRagnerokGPR|DoneAndSaid]] ([[User talk:DasRagnerokGPR|talk]]) 11:59, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

== Unused cries in Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire beta ==

On 4th April 2017 you suggested that two unused cries in [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta]] could have belonged to Skorupi and Drapion. I also noticed that you wrote in [[Drapion (Pokémon)]] page that it was supposed to be in Generation III (but it soon was edited out). Why did you think so? Is there any evidence showing that these pokémon were originally designed for RS? Because there is no obvious connection between unused cries and Scorpion Pokemon cries.

[[User:Nikkent|Nikkent]] ([[User talk:Nikkent|talk]]) 23:11, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Very very late response, I simply mixed up Skorupi with Shellos and wondered why the information wasn't there. An honest mistake.

Game cartridge

2020-05-19T23:35:35Z

DasRagnerokGPR: Cleared up some major misconceptions about the NTR-031 Nintendo DS cartridge. HGSS aren't even DSi enhanced games.

A '''ROM cartridge''', also simply referred to as a '''cartridge''' or '''cart''', is the storage device in which many of the [[Pokémon games]] have been contained.

Throughout the Pokémon game series, all of the [[core series]] games have been stored on ROM cartridges, with many variances between them. Many [[Spin-off Pokémon games|side games]] have also been on cartridge but some have been for the [[GameCube]] and [[Wii]] (on discs, not cartridges). The ROM cartridges for the [[Game Boy]], [[Game Boy Color]], [[Game Boy Advance]], and [[Nintendo 64]] are officially called '''Game Paks''', while [[Nintendo DS]], [[Nintendo 3DS]], and [[Nintendo Switch]] ROM cartridges are officially called '''Game Cards'''.

==Specifications==
* [[Game Boy]]: 2.125 × 2.5 inches.
* [[Game Boy Color]]: 2.125 × 2.5 inches.
* [[Game Boy Advance]]: 2.125 × 1.375 inches.
* [[Nintendo DS]]: 1.25 × 1.375 inches.
* [[Nintendo 3DS]]: 1.25 × 1.375 inches. ''(Not counting anti-DS knob on side)''
* [[Nintendo 64]]: 4.5 × 3 inches. ''(Measured from top of arch)''

==Core series==
All [[core series]] games are contained on cartridges.

====[[Generation I]]====
All Generation I core series games were released on [[Game Boy]] cartridges. The Western version of {{game|Yellow}} was released on a Game Boy cartridge, but is enhanced when played on a [[Game Boy Color]].

====[[Generation II]]====
{{game|Gold and Silver|s}} were released on Game Boy cartridges, but are enhanced when played on a Game Boy Color; they were marketed as Game Boy Color games that are backwards compatible with the Game Boy.

{{game|Crystal}} was released on a Game Boy Color cartridge.

====[[Generation III]]====
All Generation III core series games were released on [[Game Boy Advance]] cartridges.

====[[Generation IV]]====
All Generation IV core series games were released on [[Nintendo DS]] cartridges.

{{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} were released on the dark gray-colored NTR-005 cartridges. {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} were released on the black-colored NTR-031 DS cartridges, which are for games that use [[Infrared]] connections, such as connecting tp the [[Pokéwalker]].

====[[Generation V]]====
All Generation V core series games were released on Nintendo DS cartridges, specifically the black-colored NTR-031 DS cartridges, due to being able to connect to each other through infrared. These games are also [[Nintendo DSi|DSi]]-enhanced, bearing special DSi exclusive features such as video chat and region locking. Such features are also compatible on the [[Nintendo 3DS]]. Because of these features, these games all have a serial number that starts with TWL instead of NTR.

====[[Generation VI]]====
All Generation VI core series games were released on [[Nintendo 3DS]] cartridges.

====[[Generation VII]]====
{{g|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} were released on Nintendo 3DS cartridges.

[[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] were released on [[Nintendo Switch]] cartridges.

==Non-handheld==
===Nintendo 64===
The Nintendo 64 cartridge was seen in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], [[Hey You, Pikachu!]], [[Super Smash Bros.]], [[Pokémon Snap]], and [[Pokémon Puzzle League]].

==Irregular cartridges==
===[[Pokémon Pinball]]===
Pokémon Pinball had a special Game Boy Color cartridge for a vibration feature.

===[[Pokémon mini]]===
The Pokémon mini was a special game system specifically for Pokémon. It had its own cartridges.

'''Bronzor''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese:]] '''ドーミラー''' ''Dohmirror'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Bronzong}} starting at [[level]] 33.

==Biology==
Bronzor is a flat, circular, blue-green Pokémon. Six dark blue spheres bulge from its rim. It has two round, yellow eyes and a large nose-like sphere surrounded by four small circles in its center. A crest resembling an {{wp|herb}} or branch is on its back. This crest is said to possess a mysterious power. It was first seen in ancient tombs; objects resembling this Pokémon have been found in tombs as well. Scientists believe Bronzor used to be reflective, and have tried x-raying its body. The x-rays revealed nothing of its structure, however.

==In the anime==
[[File:Karl Bronzor.png|thumb|left|250px|Bronzor in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Bronzor made its main series debut in ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', under the ownership of [[Saturn]]. Saturn used Bronzor to help light the way through the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. It appeared again in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]''. In the same episode, it was revealed that a Bronzor was also owned by [[Mars]]. Both, however, were easily defeated by [[Cynthia's Garchomp]].

A Bronzor appeared in ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', under the ownership of [[Byron]]. It was used during his [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}}. It battled {{AP|Chimchar}} and was defeated despite having the [[Ability]] {{a|Heatproof}}.

A Bronzor appeared in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', under the ownership of [[Karl]]. It was often used to provide light for dark places. It was later used to levitate {{OBP|Zorua|M13}}, who had {{a|Illusion|transformed}} into {{OBP|Celebi|M13}} as part of a scheme to distract [[Grings Kodai]] from the real Celebi.

===Minor appearances===
Bronzor debuted in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where it was briefly seen battling a {{p|Gible}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:Mars Bronzor Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Bronzor in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the movie adaptations===
Bronzor appears in {{ma|The Rise of Darkrai}} manga adaptation.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Bronzor appears in ''[[PS343|Honey for Combee]]'', as one of [[Mars]]'s Pokémon. She used it to attack the manager of the [[Valley Windworks]] and hold him hostage. When he managed to use his {{p|Drifloon}} to call for help, she tried to have her {{p|Zubat}} bite him in the neck. After growing bored as she always does, she had it use {{m|Sandstorm}} and left with an electricity-generating wind turbine.

Two Bronzor appeared in ''[[PS349|Passing by Probopass and Maneuvering around Magnezone]]''.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===

==Trivia==
[[File:Spr b 4d 436b.png|frame|Bronzor's early backsprite]]
* If Bronzor is turned upside-down, it will look exactly the same from the front, meaning its front has rotational symmetry. It also has horizontal and vertical reflective symmetry. However, its back sprite only has vertical reflective symmetry.
* Bronzor and [[Bronzong]] are the first times a Pokémon with Levitate could have an ability other than Levitate.
* There is an unused sprite within {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} for Bronzor's back sprite which is just a duplicate of its front sprite.
* In the games, all three {{tc|Commander}}s of [[Team Galactic]] that can be battled have a Bronzor.
* As both of this Pokémon's {{Abilities}} are used at the same time in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and it wasn't weak to {{t|Ghost}} and {{type|Dark}} moves at the time, Bronzor doesn't have any weaknesses in those games.
* Bronzor has the lowest base {{stat|Attack}} of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Bronzor and Bronzong}}
Bronzor is based on a 銅鏡 ''dōkyō'', or {{wp|bronze mirror}}.

====Name origin====
Bronzor is a combination of ''bronze'' and ''mirror''.

Dohmirror is a combination of 銅鏡 ''dōkyō'' (bronze mirror) and ''mirror''.

DasRagnerokGPR: /* Header change. */ new section

==Japan is getting the Sword and Shield games in Winter 2019?==
Is this for real? Where's the source for that? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 00:34, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
:It's late 2019 as late 2019 can get (December). Japanese game release are usually referred to by the season.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:36, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
::Yeah, I just realized that. My bad. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 21:09, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

== Request ==

Request for someone to change the start date to November 15, 2019. I can't do it myself because the page is protected. [[User:Awesomelink234|Awesomelink234]] ([[User talk:Awesomelink234|talk]]) 17:28, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Request to add Nessa as the water-type gym leader. [[User:Gen3Confirmed|Gen3Confirmed]] ([[User talk:Gen3Confirmed|talk]]) 21:50, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

== National Dex note ==

Can an admin add that Generation VIII will be the first generation to not allow Pokémon who are not in the regional dex to be transferred to the games? ''[[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen]] [[User talk:Frozen Fennec|Fennec]]'' 15:14, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
:That seems actually the second time, after [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 00:23, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
::I've been thinking... Technically, Generation I was the actual first time, because obviously no other previous generation existed. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 03:25, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
:::That would then also apply to Generation II, but either way I think it would be irrelevant since it feels like splitting hairs at that point. [[User:Klop422|Klop422]] ([[User talk:Klop422|talk]]) 17:18, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
::::You're right. The important thing here is that the Switch games (LGPE and SwSh) broke the tradition of having all the previous Pokémon species available via transfers from other games. The articles about both games already state that in one way or another. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 09:39, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

== Header change. ==

The header of the page contains the "Incomplete" tag, when it should really contain the "Expected Future Event" tag.

'''Ditto''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタモン''' ''Metamon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

It can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] with any Pokémon other than the Pokémon in the {{egg|Undiscovered}} group and itself, including {{egg|Gender unknown|some genderless Pokémon}}, to produce Eggs of the other's species.

==Biology==
[[File:Duplica Ditto Pikachu.png|200px|thumb|left|[[Duplica]]'s Ditto {{m|transform}}ed as a {{p|Pikachu}}]]
In its natural state, Ditto is a light purple or pink amorphous Pokémon with {{wp|vestigiality|vestigial}} facial features. The face consists of a simple mouth and beady eyes. It also appears to have two {{wp|pseudopodia|pseudopods}} protruding from its body that it uses as arms. It is capable of transforming into an exact replica of any physical object, including its form and abilities. However, if Ditto tries to transform into something based on memory, it may get some of the details wrong.

Each Ditto has its own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to transforming. [[EP037|The anime]] and [[Ditto (TCG)|the TCG]] have shown that occasionally Ditto cannot change its face. It will also be unable to remain in a transformed state if it starts laughing. While its transformation ability allows it to get along with almost anything, it does not get along with its own kind. When two Ditto meet in the wild, they will attempt to transform into each other. It transforms into a rock when sleeping to avoid attack. Ditto is never far from {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|civilization or people}}. Ditto is the only Pokémon capable of using the [[Metal Powder]] and [[Quick Powder]] items.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
[[File:Ditto Melee.png|right|thumb|A screenshot of Ditto in Melee]]
Ditto was originally intended to be one of the Pokémon randomly released from a {{i|Poké Ball}}. It would have transformed into a copy of the user's character and aided them in battle. However, processing problems forced its removal before the game's release. Ditto can be still be unlocked through the debug menu (which is only accessible through the use of Action Replay), though it does not do anything other than give 7-8% damage to those who touch it.

As for its official status, Ditto only appears as a random trophy and as a cameo in the Tournament Mode menu. In Winner Out or Loser Out tournaments, holding down L and R and pressing A will give the player a random character and color. The usual character image will instead be taken by a picture of Ditto.

====Trophy information====
''Every Ditto has the ability to copy a Pokémon's entire cell structure in an instant and become its exact replica. They're terrible at remembering techniques, but when they use {{m|Transform}}, they temporarily learn all of their foe's moves. If a Ditto starts to laugh, it weakens and can't hold its transformation.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
[[File:SSB Ditto.png|thumb|250px|Ditto in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]]]
Ditto appears as a Pokémon summoned from the {{i|Poké Ball}}, where it uses {{m|Transform}} to duplicate the shape of the summoning character while still maintaining its own color. It then attacks opposing fighters.

Ditto first became available in {{g|GO}} on November 23, 2016, disguised as other {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the {{pkmn2|wild}}. Players will only find out whether a Pokémon is a Ditto if successfully [[caught Pokémon|captured]], upon which a cutscene will show the Pokémon transforming back into Ditto. Wild Ditto can only be disguised as Pokémon whose {{pkmn2|Shiny}} forms are not currently available.

As of March 2019, a wild Ditto may be disguised as any of the following species:
* {{p|Zubat}}
* {{p|Venonat}}
* {{p|Paras}}
* {{p|Sentret}}
* {{p|Hoothoot}}
* {{p|Ledyba}}
* {{p|Yanma}}
* {{p|Remoraid}}
* {{p|Whismur}}
* {{p|Gulpin}}

Prior to the release of their Shiny forms, wild Ditto may have also been disguised as these species:
* {{p|Pidgey}}
* {{p|Rattata}}
* {{p|Mankey}}
* {{p|Gastly}}
* {{p|Zigzagoon}}

==Trivia==
* Ditto is the only Pokémon to date with a [[catch rate]] of 35. However, in Generations [[Generation III|III]] and [[Generation IV|IV]], if Ditto transforms into another Pokémon, its catch rate will become that of the new Pokémon.
* Ditto and {{p|Manaphy}} are the only Pokémon that are both able to breed yet unobtainable through breeding. Ditto, however, is the only one of the two that is not available at level 1 legally (legitimately the lowest level it is able to be is 10, in [[Generation II]] and its Generation IV [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes]].
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Ditto takes the form of {{p|Bulbasaur}} in the [[Pokémon Island Cave|Cave stage]]. The player can cause them to return to their Ditto form by hitting them with an object. When the player takes their picture, Ditto has the same eyes when it is transformed as when it is not. This trait is shared by [[Duplica]]'s Ditto in the [[EP037|anime]], although it was understood that this was not natural. {{TCG|Ditto|Ditto cards}} from the {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} {{Trading Card Game}} expansion and the Clefairy Ditto that may appear in the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]'s slot machines also have this trait.
* Ditto is one of two Pokémon to have two different species-specific [[Stat-enhancing item]]s associated with it, the other being {{p|Clamperl}}. Ditto's two associated items, the Metal Powder and Quick Powder, seem to be the same colors as Ditto's normal and {{Shiny}} forms, respectively.
* In [[Pokémon Rumble]], since {{m|Transform}} was not programmed into the game, Ditto can only know {{m|Struggle}}. Since PP does not exist in Rumble, this makes Ditto the only Pokémon in Rumble that can use Struggle. However, Transform does exist in [[Pokémon Rumble Blast]], so Ditto has a move.
* Ditto is the most common Pokémon in [[Pokémon Trozei!]], appearing in every area. This is due to its ability to transform, enabling the player a way to advance further if no links are available before Ditto appear.
* Ditto shares several aspects with {{p|Mew}}: the move {{m|Transform}}, the same {{Shiny}} blue and normal pink color, perfectly balanced base stats, and its weight of 8.8 lbs. (4.0 kg).
* Japanese copies of [[Pokémon Black and White]] displayed Ditto's hidden ability as エキセントリック (Eccentric) instead of かわりもの (Changer) like it is now.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Ditto and {{p|Poliwag}} had the same [[cry]].
* Since Transform copies its target's stats (except HP), Ditto cannot utilize its Special Attack stat before Transforming, though it can use its Attack stat for {{m|Struggle}} and {{status|confusion}} damage.
* In [[Generation II]], a transformed Ditto keeps its original purple color palette (blue if Shiny).
* Since Ditto's only move, Transform, cannot copy moves in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series and has only one PP, its only move after transforming is Struggle.
* In Generation VI, Ditto is only given one move animation (despite the two animations minimum most Pokémon have for contact and non-contact moves).
* On October 4, 2017, [[The Pokémon Company]] posted a Ditto-themed music video onto their YouTube channel titled [[Dit-to Ditto]].
* In [[Pokémon GO]], Ditto appears in the wild disguised as other Pokémon. After being caught, it will reveal its true form. At one point, a large amount of Ditto were seen disguised as the then-unrevealed [[Mythical Pokémon]], {{p|Meltan}}.
* Ditto is the only non-playable Pokémon that can be defeated in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].

===Glitches===
====Index 000 post-capture====
In [[Generation I]], if the player manages to capture an [['M (00)]], it will still be in battle with the player, and the battle will not end. Catching 'M (00) again results in the second one becoming a Ditto of the same level.

====Ditto glitch====
{{main|Mew glitch#Ditto glitch|Mew glitch}}
The primary method of the Mew glitch involves having a wild Ditto transform into the player's Pokémon, as this copies the {{stat|Special}} stat, which is used to modify the species of Pokémon encountered.

====Transform assumption glitch====
In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, any Pokémon that uses {{m|Transform}} is regarded as a Ditto in its new form; this means that if the player catches a {{p|Mew}} or a [[glitch Pokémon]] which has used the move Transform, or a Pokémon which has used Transform via {{m|Mirror Move}}, instead they will obtain a Ditto. Mew turning into Ditto was not an issue, because wild Mew could not have been legitimately encountered. This system was later changed in Generation III, where wild Mew could be legitimately encountered.

====Shiny Ditto glitch====
{{main|List of glitches in Generation II#Shiny Ditto DV manipulation}}
By trading any [[Shiny Pokémon]] to a Generation I game, having a wild Ditto transform into that Pokémon, then catching and trading the Ditto into a Generation II game, the Ditto will be Shiny.

====Transform-specific glitches====
{{main|Transform (move)#Glitches|Transform (move)}}

====Rage glitch====
{{main|Rage glitch}}
In [[Generation IV]], while in a [[Double Battle]], if a Ditto transforms into an ally Pokémon with {{m|Rage}}, and it defeats the ally (if it's not a Ditto), it will retain the ally's moveset.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|Unused Pokémon design revealed in magazine interview}}
In the sixth issue of {{wp|Best Buy}}'s @Gamer magazine, Game Freak developers Junichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori revealed that Ditto was originally based on the iconic {{wp|smiley}} face. Its eyes and mouth are exactly like ":)", which is an emoticon representing the smiley.

Additionally, Ditto strongly resembles an ''{{wp|amoeba}}'', a single-celled organism with no definite shape. This may emphasize its ability to alter its cellular composition. This could also explain why Ditto is unavailable through breeding, since single-celled organisms reproduce differently from multi-cellular plants and animals. It also could partially be based on an {{wp|undifferentiated cell}}, a cell in the body that can change into any other cell by sampling it. It could also have been based on a {{wp|blob}}.

====Name origin====
Ditto's name is the English word ''ditto'', meaning "that which has been said before" (itself from Italian, where it means "having been said"). It was also a brand name for spirit duplicators, and came to mean copies of master documents created by those duplicators.

Metamon is a combination of ''{{wp|metamorph}}'' and ''monster''. Alternatively, ''Meta'' as a prefix can mean "all-encompassing," which Ditto's {{m|Transform}} move does do to Pokémon.

Multi Battle

2019-01-30T03:21:04Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* In the games */

[[File:Multi Battle VII.png|thumb|250px|Fighting {{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Blue}} in a Multi Battle in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]].]]

A '''Multi Battle''' (Japanese: '''マルチバトル''' ''Multi Battle''), referred to as a '''Tag Battle''' (Japanese: '''タッグバトル''' ''Tag Battle'') in the anime, is a type of [[Double Battle]] in which each of the four Pokémon is controlled by a separate [[Pokémon Trainer]].

Starting with [[Generation III]], Multi Battles occur when the {{player}} has teamed up with another Trainer. If the player has teamed up with another Trainer as part of the storyline, their Pokémon total as well as that of their opponents may exceed the limit of six Pokémon per team imposed by [[party]] restrictions for other types of [[Pokémon battle]].

==In the games==
===Multi Battle mode===
[[File:Battle Commanders.png|thumb|220px|A Multi Battle in Generation IV]]
In [[Generation III]], up to four players can battle with each other in a Multi Battle via [[Game Link Cable]] by choosing the "Multi Battle" mode in the Pokémon Cable Club Colosseum. Players decide which side to battle. This is the only way to have a Multi Battle in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}

In [[Generation IV]], the Pokémon Cable Club Colosseum was renamed to the Pokémon Communication Club Colosseum, but Multi Battles can still be conducted by selecting "Multi Battle".

In [[Generation V]], Multi Battles can be conducted through the IR section of the [[C-Gear]], and you can select an opponent and pair with somebody through the IR function.

In [[Generation VI]], the player accesses Multi Battles with the [[Player Search System]]'s Battle option. After selecting a connection type, the player must then change the number of players to four, and select three other players on the touch screen.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], players can call on the [[player character]] of the opposite [[gender]], referred to in-game as a '''Support Trainer''', to accompany them at any time by turning on a [[Nintendo Switch|Joycon]] or [[Poké Ball Plus]], giving it to another player, and shaking it. The second player will battle alongside the main character in Trainer Battles, taking control of the second Pokémon in the party. The second player shares the same hair color, eye color, and skin tone of the host character, and wears a matching set of clothing.

====Quotes====
'''Pokémon Center Receptionist'''
:"Multi Battle is for four Trainers with one or more Pokémon each."
:"Each Trainer can have one Pokémon in battle at a time."

==In the anime==
[[File:Tag Battle anime.png|thumb|250px|{{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} ready for a Tag Battle]]
While {{Ash}} has been involved in many "illegal" Tag Battles conducted by {{TRT}} long before the concept was introduced to the {{pkmn|games}}, his first official Tag Battle was in ''[[AG072|The Bicker the Better]]'', when he teamed up with {{an|May}} to battle against [[Oscar and Andi]]. At first, Ash had gotten into an argument with May but ended up making up with her and becoming in sync with her during battle.

[[Hearthome City]] has its own special tournament known as the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]], which took place from ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]'' to ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]''. Tag teams are chosen randomly, with each Trainer receiving a card with a number on it and partnering with the Trainer whose number is paired with their number. The tournament was entered by Ash, Dawn, and Brock, who were respectively paired with [[Paul]], [[Conway]], and [[Holly]]. Ash and Paul managed to win the tournament despite working very poorly together.

Ash and {{an|Dawn}} have teamed up on numerous occasions over the course of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. Their first Tag Battle together took place in ''[[DP029|The Champ Twins!]]'' when they faced off against [[Ryan and Bryan]]. They initially had trouble working in sync, but after both of them acknowledged their flaws, their teamwork improved and they managed to defeat the twin brothers in a rematch.

In ''[[DP147|Bagged Then Tagged!]]'', Ash and Dawn had a Tag Battle against {{an|Lyra}} and [[Khoury]] inside the {{DL|Lilypad Town|Lilypad Colosseum}}. They managed to defeat the [[Johto]] {{pkmn|Trainer}}s despite the unexpected [[Evolution]] of [[Khoury's Totodile]]. While visiting [[Emeragrove Town]] in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]'', Ash and Dawn paired up to battle [[James]] and [[Gardenia]]. Using their {{AP|Aipom}} and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} against [[James's Cacnea]] and Gardenia's {{p|Turtwig}}, they won the match.

Ash and {{an|Brock}} have also been shown to work well together as a team. In ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'', the two went up against the owners of the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]], [[Roman]] and [[Kylie]]. Their cooperation proved successful and they managed to win the battle. In the same episode, May and Dawn teamed up and were also victorious in their Tag Battle. In ''[[DP063|Hot Springing a Leak!]]'', Dawn and her childhood friend [[Leona]] went up against Ash and Brock. Their battle ended in a draw.

In ''[[BW051|Lost at the Stamp Rally!]]'', Ash and {{an|Cilan}} fought in a Tag Battle against {{FB|Subway Boss|Ingo}} and {{FB|Subway Boss|Emmet}}, which Ash and Cilan lost despite fighting excellently. In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', Ash and Cilan battled and won against {{an|Bianca}} and [[Professor Juniper]]. Ash and Cilan also fought together in a Tag Battle against two brothers named [[Soren and Rocko]] in ''[[BW099|A Surface to Air Tag Battle Team!]]'' and managed to win here as well. In ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'', Ash and [[Nanette]] battled against Iris and Cilan, though the battle was interrupted by Team Rocket in their attempt to capture Pikachu.

In ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]'', Ash and Tierno partnered up against Serena and Shauna, but the battle was called off.

In ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'', [[Monsieur Pierre]] prepared a surprise Tag Battle for the {{pkmn|Performer}}s attending his dance party. Entrants were given a card upon registration, and four of these cards had a special mark so the people who received them would take part in a Tag Battle. The special cards ended up with Ash, Serena, [[Miette]], and [[James]] and they faced off near the end of the party, with the team of Ash and Serena emerging victorious.

In ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', {{an|Lana}} and {{an|Mallow}} had a Multi Battle against {{an|Misty}}, while {{an|Sophocles}} and {{an|Lillie}} had a Multi Battle against {{an|Brock}}. However, both of these battles were called off.

In ''[[SM070|The Young Flame Strikes Back!]]'', {{an|Kiawe}} had a Multi Battle against [[Viren]] and [[Viren's henchmen|his henchmen]], but he ended up losing the battle.

Tag Battles have been featured in a few [[Pokémon movie]]s as well. In ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', Ash visited the [[LaRousse City]] [[Battle Tower]] where he battled alongside [[Tory Lund|Tory]] against [[Sid]] and [[Rafe]]. Due to Tory's fear of Pokémon and lack of battling experience, he and Ash ended up losing the match. In ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', Ash and Dawn defeated [[Kiko]] and [[Kato]] using their {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} against a {{p|Beautifly}} and {{p|Heracross}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Although multiple Trainers battling a single opponent (such as [[Sabrina]] vs. {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} or {{adv|Bill}} and [[Lt. Surge]] vs. [[Bruno]]) were common prior to [[Generation III]], actual Tag Battles were uncommon. The first true Tag Battle occurs when {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Crystal}} fought against [[Sham]] and [[Carl]]'s two Pokémon together.

Much later, as with the then recently released {{game|Emerald}} which fully introduced this feature, the two protagonists of the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, named appropriately after the two games, would fight together against [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]] in both the [[Seafloor Cavern]] and after {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}'s return to their slumber. {{adv|Silver}} and {{adv|Yellow}} also fought against two opponents, but as Yellow didn't begin to attack until after the former was losing, it is dubious as to whether it can be called a true Tag Battle.

Several Tag Battles also occur during the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}, including those of two pairs fighting many opponents.

==Trivia==
* When battling alongside Steven in Emerald, his Pokémon are shown to gain experience after the defeat of an opponent Pokémon. This does not happen to a partner's Pokémon in the Multi Battles of Generation IV.
** Having the player's party be defeated in the Multi Battle with Steven will cause the player to [[black out|white out]]. This was also changed in Generation IV, where a white out will not occur until both the player's and the partner's Pokémon are all knocked out.
* The Multi Battle against [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} as well as the battle against {{EF|Flint}} and [[Volkner]] in {{game|Platinum}} have the potential to be twelve-on-six fights, due to {{ga|Barry}}'s full [[party]].

Ability

2018-11-11T23:25:23Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* Trivia */

An '''Ability''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|特性|とくせい}}''' ''ability'') is a game mechanic introduced in [[Generation III]] that provides a passive effect in battle or in the overworld. Individual Pokémon may have only one Ability at a time. Prior to [[Generation VI]], an Ability could not be changed after a Pokémon was obtained except by [[Evolution]]—where the new Ability is determined by the former Ability—and [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form change]]. Not every Ability is beneficial; {{cat|Abilities with negative effects|some will hinder the user}}.

==Mechanics==
[[File:Primordial Sea.png|thumb|[[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Kyogre}} activating its Ability, {{a|Primordial Sea}}]]
Some species of Pokémon have multiple possible Abilities. The most Abilities any species or form has is three: two normal Abilities and one Hidden Ability. In most [[wild Pokémon]] encounters, the Pokémon's Ability will be one of its non-Hidden Abilities (each having an even chance of appearing if the species has two). Hidden Abilities were introduced in [[Generation V]]; they are relatively rare and usually require some type of special encounter.

In technical terms, a species' Abilities may be thought of as having separate slots, with an individual Pokémon's non-Hidden slot determined by its [[personality value]]. For example, an {{p|Eevee}}—with two non-Hidden Abilities—has {{a|Run Away}} for its first non-Hidden slot, {{a|Adaptability}} for its second, and {{a|Anticipation}} for its Hidden Ability slot. {{p|Vaporeon}}—with only one non-Hidden Ability—can be considered to have {{a|Water Absorb}} for both non-Hidden slots. When a Pokémon evolves, its Ability slot remains the same. This means that a {{p|Poochyena}} with {{a|Run Away}} will evolve into a {{p|Mightyena}} with {{a|Intimidate}}, while a Poochyena with {{a|Quick Feet}} will evolve into a Mightyena with {{a|Quick Feet}}.

Aside from Evolution, there are three ways for Pokémon to change Abilities in a permanent manner. One way is if the Pokémon has different [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]] with different Abilities. Another way is through the [[Ability Capsule]], which was introduced in [[Generation VI]]. The Ability Capsule actually changes a Pokémon's non-Hidden Ability slot, but it will not work if the Pokémon has its Hidden Ability or if the species has only one non-Hidden Ability. Third, [[Pokémon Bank|transferring]] a Pokémon from one generation of games to a later one in which the Ability in a given slot is different. Aside from these methods, during battle, Pokémon may also change their Ability through [[Mega Evolution]] or [[Primal Reversion]], and certain [[move]]s and Abilities can also change a Pokémon's Ability.

When Abilities were introduced in [[Generation III]], some Pokémon only had one possible Ability. A number of these species were given a second Ability in a later generation. If a Pokémon whose species gained an Ability after Generation III is transferred to Generations IV or {{gen|V}}, it will initially retain its original Ability; upon evolving, however, its Ability slot will be recalculated and its Ability may change. When a Pokémon is transferred to Generation VI or [[Generation VII]], however, it will be locked into the appropriate slot for its current Ability.

Aside from in-battle effects, some Abilities also have effects {{cat|Abilities with field effects|outside of battle}}. In battle, a Pokémon's Ability can be affected by certain Abilities or moves, such as {{cat|Ability-changing Abilities}}, {{cat|moves that affect Abilities}}, {{cat|Abilities that ignore other Abilities}}, and {{cat|moves that ignore the target's Ability}}.

==={{anchor|Hidden Ability|Hidden Abilities}}===
{{main|List of Pokémon with released Hidden Abilities (Generation V)}}
{{main|List of Pokémon with released Hidden Abilities (Generation VI)}}
{{main|List of Pokémon with released Hidden Abilities (Generation VII)}}
Beginning in [[Generation V]], {{cat|Pokémon without Hidden Abilities|most Pokémon}} were given an additional, '''Hidden Ability''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|隠|かく}}れ{{tt|特性|とくせい}}''' ''Hidden Ability''). A Pokémon with its Hidden Ability will retain its ability slot upon [[evolution]], unless the evolved form has no Hidden Ability. Hidden Abilities can only be acquired under special circumstances. Such circumstances are listed below.
* Certain [[event Pokémon]] may have their Hidden Ability.
* In Generation V, all Pokémon encountered in [[Entree Forest]] (i.e. obtained from the [[Pokémon Global Link]], either via the [[Pokémon Dream World]] or a [[List of Pokémon Global Link promotions/Pokémon|Global Link promotion]]) will always have their Hidden Ability, if they have one.
* Pokémon obtained from the [[Pokémon Dream Radar]] will have their Hidden Abilities.
* In {{game|Black and White|s}}, some overworld Pokémon have their Hidden Ability:
** The five {{p|Darmanitan}} in the [[Desert Resort]].
** The {{p|Musharna}} in the [[Dreamyard]] on Fridays.
* Any Pokémon found in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]'s [[Hidden Grotto]]s have their Hidden Ability.
* In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, some overworld and gift Pokémon have their Hidden Ability:
** On Mondays, a male {{p|Jellicent}} at [[Undella Bay]]{{sup/5|B2}} or a {{p|Braviary}} on {{rt|4|Unova}}{{sup/5|W2}}.
** On Thursdays, a {{p|Mandibuzz}} on {{rt|4|Unova}}{{sup/5|B2}} or a female {{p|Jellicent}} at [[Undella Bay]]{{sup/5|W2}}.
** A {{p|Deerling}} given as a gift on {{rt|6|Unova}}.
** A male {{p|Eevee}} gifted by [[Amanita]] in [[Castelia City]], after the player has entered the Hall of Fame.
** [[Yancy]]/[[Curtis]] will trade the player a specific Pokémon with a Hidden Ability after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and riding the ferris wheel with them.
* Any Pokémon encountered in a [[Horde Encounter]] may have their Hidden Ability.
* Pokémon encountered in the [[Friend Safari]] have approximately a 1 in 3 chance of having their Hidden Ability if the Friend to whom the Friend Safari corresponds has been recognized as a Friend in the [[Player Search System|PSS]] (i.e. if both players have been on the PSS at the same time).
* {{DL|DexNav|Hidden Pokémon}} have a chance of having their Hidden Ability, which increases as the Search Level for that species increases.
* In Generation VII, Pokémon that appear as the tenth or later Pokémon in an [[SOS Battle]] have a chance of having their Hidden Ability, which increases as the chain lengthens.
* All Pokémon transferred from the [[Virtual Console]] releases of the [[Generation I]] or [[Generation II]] games via [[Poké Transporter]] have their Hidden Ability.
* In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, some {{pkmn2|Totem}}-like Pokémon have their Hidden Ability.
** Totem-like {{p|Gumshoos}}, {{alo|Marowak}}, and {{p|Ribombee}} in Ultra Sun.
** Totem-like {{alo|Raticate}}, {{p|Togedemaru}}, and {{p|Kommo-o}} in Ultra Moon.

===Abilities and breeding===
Before Generation V, the Ability slot that a [[Pokémon Egg]] would have when it hatched was left to random chance, resulting in a 50% chance of having either slot. Since Generation V, though, special mechanics have been introduced.

Starting in {{2v2|Black|White}}, female Pokémon with [[Ability#Hidden Abilities|Hidden Abilities]] have a 60% chance of passing on the Hidden Ability to their offspring when bred with a male Pokémon from the same [[Egg Group]]. In Generation VI, this was extended so that male and genderless Pokémon with a Hidden Ability can also pass it down if they are bred with Ditto. The chance of the offspring having either non-Hidden Ability is 20% each.

Starting in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, there is an 80% chance that the offspring's Ability slot is the same as its mother's if the mother was bred with a male Pokémon from the same Egg Group. Starting in Generation VI, this chance is generically applied to any non-Ditto parent.

==In other games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
{{main|Mystery Dungeon game mechanics#Abilities}}

Abilities available in the core series games are also available in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series. Some Abilities differ from their counterparts in the core series (e.g. {{a|Intimidate}} reduces the opposing Pokémon's Attack by 20%).

===Pokémon Conquest===
{{main|List of Abilities in Pokémon Conquest}}

While most Pokémon species in [[Pokémon Conquest]] have access to three Abilities (similar to the main series, Hidden Abilities included), many of these Abilities are different from the main series due to differences in the battle system. For example, Abilities like {{a|Cute Charm}} and {{a|Rivalry}} do not exist in Pokémon Conquest (due to the game's lack of a [[gender]] mechanic), while other Abilities utilize mechanics unique to Pokémon Conquest battles (like "Sprint", which increases the user's movement {{stat|Range}}).

Like the main series, an individual Pokémon's Ability is dictated by its current species (i.e. evolutionary form) and may change during [[evolution]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Harrison Kecleon Color Change.png|thumb|250px|{{jo|Harrison}}'s {{p|Kecleon}} activating {{a|Color Change}}]]
Abilities have been shown in the anime, but are usually only used in battles; however, sometimes they have an effect on the plot, such as [[Ash's Infernape]]'s {{a|Blaze}}. Abilities sometimes work differently in the anime than they would in the games, such as {{a|Mold Breaker}}, which in the anime cancels out more Abilities than it would in the games.

===In the {{series|original}}===
The only Ability that was seen in the original series was {{a|Color Change}}, being used by {{DL|Madison and Alexa|Kecleon|Madison and Alexa's Kecleon}} in ''[[EP205|The Kecleon Caper]]''. It was later used by {{DL|Harrison (Johto)|Kecleon|Harrison's Kecleon}} in ''[[EP271|Playing With Fire!]]''.

===In the {{series|Advanced Generation}}===
The first Ability to be seen other than {{a|Color Change}} was {{a|Rough Skin}}, first seen in ''[[AG019|Sharpedo Attack!]]''. It was used by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Sharpedo}}.

In ''[[AG033|Now That's Flower Power!]]'' a {{p|Kecleon}} used {{a|Color Change}}.

In ''[[AG039|A Poké-BLOCK Party!]]'', {{DL|Alanna|Whismur|Alanna's Whismur}} used its {{a|Soundproof}} Ability to stay awake and listen to {{an|Jigglypuff}}'s song.

{{DL|Colonel Hansen|Shedinja|Colonel Hansen's Shedinja}} used {{a|Wonder Guard}} to protect itself against {{m|Spike Cannon}} by [[Misty's Corsola]] in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]''.
[[File:Colonel Hansen Shedinja Wonder Guard.png|thumb|250px|[[Colonel Hansen]]'s {{p|Shedinja}} activating {{a|Wonder Guard}}]]
Two Abilities were seen in ''[[AG070|Balance of Power]]'', being used by [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Grovyle}}, using {{a|Static}} and {{a|Overgrow}} respectively.

{{DL|Bart|Castform|Bart's Castform}} used {{a|Forecast}} in ''[[AG083|Unfair Weather Friends]]'', turning into its [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Castform|Sunny and Rainy Form]].

In ''[[AG088|The Garden of Eatin']]'', {{DL|Marcel|Vigoroth|Marcel's Vigoroth}} used {{a|Vital Spirit}} which prevented it from falling asleep.

Both {{a|Drizzle}} and {{a|Drought}} were seen in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'' respectively.

In ''[[AG099|It's Still Rocket Roll to Me!]]'', [[Liza's Lunatone]] used {{a|Levitate}}.

In ''[[AG111|Eight Ain't Enough]]'', {{DL|Juan|Luvdisc|Juan's Luvdisc}} used {{a|Swift Swim}} to increase its speed.

In ''[[AG112|Showdown At Linoone]]'', a {{DL|Kimmy Shoney|Tokin|Kimmy's Tokin}} has the Ability {{a|Pickup}} and takes items to its private stash, including {{an|May}}'s Poké Balls.

In ''[[AG131|At the End of the Fray]]'', {{DL|Tyson (Hoenn)|Hariyama|Tyson's Hariyama}} used {{a|Thick Fat}} to half the damage it took from [[Ash's Torkoal]]'s {{m|Flamethrower}}.

In ''[[AG138|Rough, Tough Jigglypuff]]'', {{DL|Lisa Mitchum|Jigglypuff|Lisa Mitchum's Jigglypuff}} used {{a|Cute Charm}} whilst her {{DL|Mitch Mitchum|Jigglypuff|Father's Loudred}} used Soundproof to stop Jigglypuff's {{m|Sing}} from working.

{{DL|Angela|Kecleon|Angela's Kecleon}} used Color Change in ''[[AG156|From Cradle to Save]]'', as well as [[Brock's Bonsly]] using {{a|Rock Head}}.

In ''[[AG188|Pinch Healing!]]'', a wild {{p|Wooper}} used {{a|Water Absorb}}.

In ''[[AG191|Once More With Reeling!]]'', [[May's Blaziken]] used its {{a|Blaze}} Ability while [[Ash's Sceptile]] used {{a|Overgrow}} during their [[Contest Battle]] in the {{to|Terracotta}} {{pkmn|Contest}}.

===In the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}===
Abilities proved important in the battles [[Paul]] and {{Ash}} had with [[Roark]]. During Paul's battle in ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come!]]'', his {{TP|Paul|Elekid}} uses {{a|Static}} to paralyze Roark's {{p|Onix}} and {{p|Cranidos}} although the latter shakes it off with {{a|Mold Breaker}}. Paul also deliberately allows his {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}} to take extra damage so that it can activate {{a|Blaze}}. After {{Ash}}'s first match with Roark ends in defeat, {{an|Brock}} briefly lends him {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}} in ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]'' because its Ability {{a|Rock Head}} makes it similar to Roark's Pokémon Onix, who also had the Ability. During Ash's rematch in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos We Watched!]]'', {{AP|Pikachu}} also activates {{a|Static}} against Roark's newly evolved {{TP|Roark|Rampardos}} and it is similarly ineffective.

In ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', {{DL|Officer Jenny|Stunky|Officer Jenny's Stunky}} used {{a|Stench}} against [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]].

{{DL|Gardenia|Cherubi|Gardenia's Cherubi}} caught {{Ash}} by surprise during their first battle in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'' when it was able to move very quickly with {{a|Chlorophyll}}.

In ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]'', Ash and Paul found themselves at a disadvantage during their first [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] in the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]] because the {{p|Rhydon}} used by one of their opponents possessed {{a|Lightning Rod}}, rendering Pikachu's {{type|Electric}} [[move|attacks]] useless.

In ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze!]]'' Ash, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} found Paul and {{cat|Paul's Pokémon|his other Pokémon}} evidently abusing his {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}, repeatedly attacking it until it eventually collapsed from exhaustion. When confronted, Paul explained that Chimchar actually wanted the brutal training regimen; when they first met, Chimchar was being attacked by wild {{p|Zangoose}} and when pushed to the limit it activated {{a|Blaze}} and defeated all of the Zangoose with {{m|Flame Wheel}}. This incredible power was what drove Paul to capture Chimchar in the first place and the two have been trying to replicate the experience ever since with no success.

{{a|Swift Swim}} was an important part of [[Ash's Buizel]] going toe to toe with [[Maylene's Lucario]] in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]''

{{a|Blaze}} returned in ''[[DP081|Chim - Charred!]]'' when Ash's Chimchar became enraged during a battle with [[Paul's Ursaring]]. It took considerable effort for Ash to return Chimchar to normal after it defeated Ursaring, causing Paul to leave the battle a draw. Paul told Ash that they would only battle again when and if Ash and Chimchar learned to control Blaze.
[[File:Ash Monferno Blaze.png|thumb|250px|[[Ash's Monferno]] activating {{a|Blaze}}]]
In ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]'', {{DL|Lila|Delcatty|Lila's Delcatty}} activated his {{a|Cute Charm}} Ability while battling [[Dawn's Ambipom]] in the final round of the {{to|Celestic}} {{pkmn|Contest}}.

[[Brock's Croagunk]] first used his {{a|Anticipation}} Ability in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]''. He often used it to find Team Rocket and chase them off on his own.

Two {{p|Darkrai}} have used {{a|Bad Dreams}}. One used it in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' and another in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]''.

In ''[[DP102|A Shield with a Twist!]]'', {{DL|Fantina|Gengar|Fantina's Gengar}} used {{a|Levitate}}.

In ''[[DP108|Dealing with Defensive Types!]]'', {{DL|Byron|Bronzor|Byron's Bronzor}} used its {{a|Heatproof}} Ability to minimize damage from [[Ash's Chimchar]]'s {{m|Flamethrower}}.

In ''[[DP184|Casting a Paul on Barry!]]'', [[Barry's Empoleon]] activated its {{a|Torrent}} Ability while battling Paul's Electivire in the third round of the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

{{DL|Paul|Aggron|Paul's Aggron}} used its {{a|Rock Head}} Ability in ''[[DP186|Familiarity Breeds Strategy!]]'' to avoid damage from its {{m|Double-Edge}} attack. In [[DP187|the next episode]] {{DL|Paul|Froslass|Paul's Froslass}} and {{DL|Paul|Ninjask|Ninjask}} used {{a|Snow Cloak}} and Speed Boost respectively.

{{a|Illusion}} was seen twice in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', being seen by a {{OBP|Zoroark|M13}} and {{OBP|Zorua|M13}}.

In ''[[BW010|A Rival Battle for Club Champ!]]'', {{DL|Trip|Tranquill|Trip's Tranquill}} used {{a|Super Luck}} to easily defeat [[Ash's Oshawott]] and {{AP|Tepig}}. {{DL|Trip|Frillish|Trip's Frillish}} later used {{a|Cursed Body}}.

A wild {{p|Venipede}} used its {{a|Poison Point}} Ability to poison Ash in ''[[BW022|A Venipede Stampede!]]''.

In ''[[BW034|Gotta Catch A Roggenrola!]]'', {{an|Iris}} pointed out that {{AP|Roggenrola}} had the Ability Sturdy, implying that Roggenrola would receive less damage than a Pokémon normally would.
[[File:Alder Bouffalant Sap Sipper.png|thumb|250px|[[Alder]]'s {{p|Bouffalant}} activating {{a|Sap Sipper}}]]

==In the TCG==
Abilities under the name of Abilities did not appear in the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}} until the {{TCG|Black & White}} expansion kicking off [[Generation V]]. However, this was merely a renaming of the longstanding [[Pokémon Power]]s. Pokémon Powers were very similar to Abilities, but were introduced much earlier, appearing in the very first {{TCG|Base Set}} during [[Generation I]]. In fact, some Abilities from the games originally appeared as Pokémon Powers.

With the introduction of the {{TCG|Expedition Base Set}}, Pokémon Powers were split into two groups: Poké-Powers and Poké-Bodies. Poké-Powers are special effects that the player must trigger or announce using. A Poké-Body's effect is a passive Ability that is always in effect. When Pokémon Powers were renamed to Abilities in {{TCG|Black and White}}, these distinctions were done away with.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
===={{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}====
[[File:Brawly Makuhita Thick Fat Adventures.png|thumb|200px|[[Brawly's Makuhita]] activating {{a|Thick Fat}} in Pokémon Adventures]]
Parallel to their introduction in [[Generation III]] of the video games, Abilities were first introduced in the ''Ruby & Sapphire'' chapter of [[Pokémon Adventures]].

During {{adv|Sapphire}}'s battle with [[Roxanne]] in ''[[PS190|Blowing Past Nosepass I]]'', [[Roxanne's Nosepass]] proved superior to [[Rono]]. Worried that Rono would be defeated, {{adv|Sapphire}} attempted to switch Rono out for [[Chic]] but was unable to. Roxanne explained that because her {{p|Nosepass}} has {{a|Magnet Pull}}, {{t|Steel}}-type Pokémon cannot switch out.

{{adv|Ruby}}'s first encounter with Abilities arrived in ''[[PS193|Stick This in Your Craw, Crawdaunt II]]'' when he and [[Mr. Briney]] were attacked by a wild {{p|Crawdaunt}}. [[Peeko]] tried to defeat it with {{m|Quick Attack}}, but the Crawdaunt's {{a|Shell Armor}} prevented it from doing much damage at all. After Mr. Briney fell unconscious, Ruby had [[Kiki]] use {{m|Double-Edge}} and infatuate Crawdaunt with its Ability {{a|Cute Charm}}.

Sapphire later struggled against a potent counter Ability when she faced [[Brawly]] in ''[[PS195|Mashing Makuhita]]''. After Rono was quickly defeated by [[Brawly's Makuhita]], Chic used {{m|Flamethrower}} against {{p|Makuhita}}, but it had little effect due to its {{a|Thick Fat}}.

While on their way to [[Slateport City]], Ruby and Sapphire were attacked by {{FB|Magma Admin|Courtney}} and [[Tabitha]] at the [[Abandoned Ship]] during ''[[PS199|Adding It Up with Plusle & Minun II]]''. They escaped with the help of a wild {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} after Ruby realized that their complimentary Abilities {{a|Plus}} and {{a|Minus}} greatly amplified their power when they fought together.

After [[Wattson]] is captured by the [[New Mauville]] generator, Sapphire devised a double battle strategy using his {{TP|Wattson|Electrike}} in ''[[PS205|Plugging Past Electrike II]]''. While Electrike did not have the moves to defeat the generator itself, and the wild {{p|Donphan}} that Wattson and the [[Trick Master]] had originally intended to capture would be quickly eradicated by its powerful attacks, Electrike's Ability {{a|Lightning Rod}} would allow it to redirect the bolt away from Donphan, buying Donphan enough time to destroy the generator with {{m|Rollout}}.

[[Archie]]'s {{p|Walrein}} activated Thick Fat during battle with [[Maxie]]'s {{p|Camerupt}} in ''[[PS230|Walrein and Camerupt]]''.

[[Norman]]'s {{p|Spinda}} was revealed to have {{a|Own Tempo}} as its Ability in ''[[PS258|Rayquaza Redemption I]]'' but {{m|Skill Swap}}ped it with his {{TP|Norman|Slaking}}'s {{a|Truant}}.

===={{chap|Platinum}}====

Brycen's {{p|Beartic}} activated {{a|Snow Cloak}} in ''[[PS505|A Cold Reception]]''.

Black's [[Costa]] activated {{a|Solid Rock}} in ''[[PS516|One Way or Another]]'', but [[Iris]]'s {{p|Haxorus}} negated it with {{a|Mold Breaker}}.

[[Hareta's Piplup]] has {{a|Torrent}}, which powered up its {{type|Water}} moves.

Hareta's {{p|Luxio}} activated {{a|Intimidate}} in ''[[DPA14|A Novel Test!!]]'' on [[Candice]]'s {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Regice}} but Regirock's {{a|Clear Body}} prevented Intimidate from working. Regice and {{p|Registeel}} were revealed to have Clear Body in the same chapter but weren't shown activating it.

[[Hareta's Regigigas]] has {{a|Slow Start}}, which proved to be a disadvantage for [[Hareta]].

[[Koya]]'s {{p|Absol}}'s {{a|Super Luck}} nearly defeated Hareta's Empoleon but a comeback with Empoleon's {{m|Surf}} would have given Hareta the win but the battle was interrupted by [[Mitsumi]]'s {{p|Glaceon}}'s {{m|Ice Beam}}.

Koya's {{p|Mamoswine}} activated {{a|Snow Cloak}} during a hailstorm.

===In the Pocket Monsters Platinum: Aim to Be Battle King!! manga===
In [[PBK1]], {{OBP|Shin|PBK}}'s {{p|Bronzong}} had {{a|Heatproof}} to minimize the damage taken from [[Yū Shirogane's Infernape]]'s {{type|Fire}} moves but Infernape's {{a|Blaze}} powered them back up.

* [[Generation III]] introduced the most Abilities, with 76. [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest, with 27.
* In [[Generation III]] there is an unused ability placeholder labeled as ------- and with the description "No special ability."

==Pal Park==
What happens if you try to Pal Park B óË ÁN to Diamond/Pearl? --[[User:Shiny Noctowl|Shiny Noctowl]] [[User:Shiny Noctowl#The Secret Page|Find the secret page!]] ♪The [[User:Shiny Noctowl/Me/Oboe|oboe]] is the best instrument ever!♪ 17:25, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

:You can't Pal Park B óË ÁN to D/P. B óË ÁN is a battle only glitch pokmon. [[User:Zsaberslash|Zsaberslash]] 20:21, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

==Encounter==
By the way B óË ÁN is only sent out if the player is using the "Always Your Turn" Gameshark code. From experience
"In order to encounter B óË ÁN, first the player enters the Gameshark codes "Always your turn" and "Infinite PP" and catches a Caterpie. Then after evolving it into a Metapod, he/she has to use the Metapod against Brock with the Gameshark codes switched on. He/she has to make the Metapod use Tackle once, and the game should automatically switch out to B óË ÁN."
This isn't completely true, the glitch works with any pokemon and attack and trainer. The only requirement is the code. [[User:Zsaberslash|Zsaberslash]] 20:30, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

We can find out more about this glitch if we can find its hexadecimal identifier (if you used an encounter code its the XXXX you have to replace) What happens if you use the Always Your Turn code on Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire then switch? - [[User:Chickasaurus]]

== ???-type ==

If the game freezes when this glitch is sent out, how is it known to be ???-type? ???-type does not mean "unknown type", it's a specific glitch type. [[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]] 05:41, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
:First off, ??? is not a glitch type. An example is that {{m|Curse}} was ???-type prior to [[Generation V]]. Second, by Bulbapedia standards, ???-type probably does mean "unknown type." [[User:Pokered4000|Pokered4000]] 04:18, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

== Possible way to find out it's info ==

Ok so my idea is:

Get B óË ÁN to be sent out and use an emulator save state.
Then hack your position on the map with Pokésav or similar.
Could this work? Although it may not appear in the party.
[[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 05:20, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

This could work to find its index number if you compared the byte which determined which Pokemon was sent out with any ordinary Pokemon's index number. From that we can apply it to say an encounter code or pokemon in party code and find out more information about it.

B óË ÁN might already occupy an already known glitch Pokemon though such as ?????????? however, just with a glitched animation being called. There are many variations of ?????????? with names which are based on other moves such as one called 'KICK' as in mega kick. If you choose a large value the names will eventually be based on later bytes that cannot be given a name. It sounds like a good idea but if you took the data of the game's ROM from another source this is illegal. (oh and hello ownagemuch are you from GCL forums too, this is Torchickens!) --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 12:46, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Usually if it is based on a glitch move only it's species is the move's name, and the nickname remains as "??????????", although that is in Emerald. (And yes I am, I had a feeling it was you too). [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 08:01, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

== Legitimate encounter now possible ==

This person has found a way using the Pomeg glitch to obtain a variatoin of B óË ÁN without external devices.

How it is done can be found here (http://www.halloforigin.com/forums/showthread.php?64-Pomeg-Glitch-Thread) in the final post of page one. It would be useful to read the whole page though for a better understanding.

Seems like it may be more possible to investigate now. [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 02:17, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

== óË {e Ái or B óË ÁN does not have its own unique index number ==

óË {e Ái (if emulated: emulation error can denote the name to ~B óË ÁN even when VaeporSage's possible without cheating via Pomeg glitch "switch glitch" method is used - the one OwnageMuch told us) by searching the species in battle address just turned out to share the index number of [[- (glitch Pokémon)]] : 019C and not its own unique glitch Pokémon (Default 'species' data for an Egg in Generation III rendered badly).

I couldn't experiment further and make any more 'objective' conclusions, though it looks like FireRed/LeafGreen's battle engine is significantly different, where by exploiting the "switch glitch" (can't normally get all Pokémon 0HP and not black out on Ruby/Sapphire because of different item healing mechanics - but on FireRed/LeafGreen/Emerald if you use a Potion and it would 'loop over' 65535 it resets to 0 and you don't black out.) the game just doesn't render the glitch Pokémon as a [[Bad Egg]] for hypothetically animation in battle related changes as it normally would in Ruby/Sapphire when 'switching in the forced switch Pokémon'.

Putting this into perspective, sending out "forced switch Pokémon" in Ruby/Sapphire sends out "Egg" #412 and the invalid checksum renders the result as "Bad Egg" but sending out the "forced switch Pokémon" in FireRed/LeafGreen for some reason doesn't and the 'garbage' data is accepted (where in FireRed/LeafGreen a temporary change to a Pokémon's sprite/animation in battle is possible only over a 'given' time. I guess here the game says the Conversion animation is in effect for Egg with length 0?) --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 18:52, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

:Due to the section below, I now don't know where to move it. The only character that seems to be consistent is 'Ë', so we could name it "Ë glitch" until we have a proper Hex address.

{{red link|Random characters (glitch Pokémon)}} with redirects ofc

In all seriousness I'm not sure what name we could use to describe it... although due to Chickasaurus's comment somewhere perhaps "Generation III egg hybrid" or something. See what others have to say first... [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 21:42, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
:Of course, we could always do what I suggested and merge it into {{gp|-}}, where we could make a "variations" section then list each variation by name, since they are the same thing. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 05:44, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

I agree with SnorlaxMonster's first post: "We could name it 'Ë glitch' until we have a proper Hex address." However, I do not agree that we should merge it with -, because - is a completely different Pokémon. [[User:Pokered4000|Pokered4000]] 04:46, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Emerald equivalent of you know who.

Found by VaeporSage.

::''"In other news, I found a REALLY COOL new thing about the False Swipe abnormality. To start, my initial Pokemon was a Breloom whose moveset was Giga Drain, Brick Break, Spore and Leech Seed, and it resulted in an AzuYOP. After False Swipe hit my YOP, I started to mess around with Leech Seed, which constantly seemed to leave the YOP and the opponent's Pokemon at different health levels. When I would use Giga Drain, my health would go straight from my initial health to what my opponent's was left at, and then right back up as I drained health. (For example, 10 -> 5 -> 13 etc.)''

::''So eventually, I ended up fainting the opponent's Pokemon. (Swablu.) This didn't end up in me fainting, perhaps for a number of reasons: 1) Giga Drain, which finished off Swablu, restored my health simultaneously, which meant that the game would not faint me at that time. 2) Struggle, which made a Ditto faint, except fainted the YOP instead, inflicted recoil damage. Giga Drain did not.''

::''Then, my opponent's second and last Pokemon, a Latios, came out. (If you're wondering why the Pokemon I'm using are so unusual, it's because I'm using a Secret Base for these battles.) Latios has only Memento as a moveset, so it instantly fainted. At this point, I should have won, but oddly, I didn't. The game then told me that Swablu was again going to be sent out (it's fainted!) but when it was, it was sent out at over half its health. (My YOP had 11/20 HP left.) I then quickly fainted that Swablu, to find that the game was going to send out...''

::''"t Ël {é Á ü."''

::''This Pokemon is yet another form of B óË ÁN. (but in Emerald!) It has the same animation as the óË family, except that it's on the opponent's side. Unfortunately, it 'freezes' the game, i.e. not allowing you to press A etc. due to its animation. It's pretty odd that it managed to find its way into Emerald though... "''

On the other hand, since this is a infinite loop, it is unlikely that it will make a difference. But if there is a gameshark code that sets your Pokémon's first move, it may be possible to see what will happen, by first recording the values and then creating a code that sets it to those values.

By the way B óË ÁN is only sent out if the player is using the "Always Your Turn" Gameshark code. From experience
"In order to encounter B óË ÁN, first the player enters the Gameshark codes "Always your turn" and "Infinite PP" and catches a Caterpie. Then after evolving it into a Metapod, he/she has to use the Metapod against Brock with the Gameshark codes switched on. He/she has to make the Metapod use Tackle once, and the game should automatically switch out to B óË ÁN."
This isn't completely true, the glitch works with any pokemon and attack and trainer. The only requirement is the code. [[User:Zsaberslash|Zsaberslash]] 20:30, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

== Possible way to find out it's info ==

Ok so my idea is:

Get B óË ÁN to be sent out and use an emulator save state.
Then hack your position on the map with Pokésav or similar.
Could this work? Although it may not appear in the party.
[[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 05:20, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

This could work to find its index number if you compared the byte which determined which Pokemon was sent out with any ordinary Pokemon's index number. From that we can apply it to say an encounter code or pokemon in party code and find out more information about it.

B óË ÁN might already occupy an already known glitch Pokemon though such as ?????????? however, just with a glitched animation being called. There are many variations of ?????????? with names which are based on other moves such as one called 'KICK' as in mega kick. If you choose a large value the names will eventually be based on later bytes that cannot be given a name. It sounds like a good idea but if you took the data of the game's ROM from another source this is illegal. (oh and hello ownagemuch are you from GCL forums too, this is Torchickens!) --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 12:46, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Usually if it is based on a glitch move only it's species is the move's name, and the nickname remains as "??????????", although that is in Emerald. (And yes I am, I had a feeling it was you too). [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 08:01, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

== Legitimate encounter now possible ==

This person has found a way using the Pomeg glitch to obtain a variatoin of B óË ÁN without external devices.

How it is done can be found here (http://www.halloforigin.com/forums/showthread.php?64-Pomeg-Glitch-Thread) in the final post of page one. It would be useful to read the whole page though for a better understanding.

Seems like it may be more possible to investigate now. [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 02:17, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

== óË {e Ái or B óË ÁN does not have its own unique index number ==

óË {e Ái (if emulated: emulation error can denote the name to ~B óË ÁN even when VaeporSage's possible without cheating via Pomeg glitch "switch glitch" method is used - the one OwnageMuch told us) by searching the species in battle address just turned out to share the index number of [[- (glitch Pokémon)]] : 019C and not its own unique glitch Pokémon (Default 'species' data for an Egg in Generation III rendered badly).

I couldn't experiment further and make any more 'objective' conclusions, though it looks like FireRed/LeafGreen's battle engine is significantly different, where by exploiting the "switch glitch" (can't normally get all Pokémon 0HP and not black out on Ruby/Sapphire because of different item healing mechanics - but on FireRed/LeafGreen/Emerald if you use a Potion and it would 'loop over' 65535 it resets to 0 and you don't black out.) the game just doesn't render the glitch Pokémon as a [[Bad Egg]] for hypothetically animation in battle related changes as it normally would in Ruby/Sapphire when 'switching in the forced switch Pokémon'.

Putting this into perspective, sending out "forced switch Pokémon" in Ruby/Sapphire sends out "Egg" #412 and the invalid checksum renders the result as "Bad Egg" but sending out the "forced switch Pokémon" in FireRed/LeafGreen for some reason doesn't and the 'garbage' data is accepted (where in FireRed/LeafGreen a temporary change to a Pokémon's sprite/animation in battle is possible only over a 'given' time. I guess here the game says the Conversion animation is in effect for Egg with length 0?) --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 18:52, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

'''The Underground''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ちかつうろ}}''' ''Underground Path'') is an area in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} found beneath the entire [[Sinnoh]] region. Players can travel underground at any time using an [[Explorer Kit]], which they can receive from the [[Underground Man]] in [[Eterna City]]. The Underground features multiple uses of the [[Nintendo DS|DS's]] touch-screen, as the main view is on the lower touch-sensitive screen while the upper screen shows a radar map of the entire underground. It also utilizes DS Wireless Communication to allow multiple players, each with their own DS and copy of the game, to interact.

The Underground has a different [[menu]] from the one in the overworld. Mostly, it shows the different [[item]]s used; with the exception of treasures, which can be transferred to the player's [[Bag]], these are all exclusive to the area.

[[Sphere]]s are the currency of the underground. The player can bury their spheres to make them more valuable, either by leaving a sphere buried for a long time to make it grow, or by burying spheres of the same color in the same spot to merge them into a larger sphere. When spheres are buried in the same spot, their sizes are mixed together. When two or more spheres are buried on top of each other, the largest sphere is added to the smaller spheres' sizes divided by five, rounded down, plus one. Spheres can reach a maximum size of 99, with some growing faster than others. Blue, green, and red spheres grow the fastest, and are thus the least valuable. Pale spheres are the second fastest growing spheres, and are semi-valuable. Prism spheres are the slowest growing spheres, and are thereby the most valuable of all the sphere types. Burying spheres can increase the number and density of mining sparkles in the same vicinity.

There are six different areas in the Underground; each is accessible from different overworld locations. While some are readily accessible from the mainland, players must sometimes travel to far-off places like [[Fullmoon Island]] to enter these areas.

===Exploring===
[[File:Sinnoh Underground.png|thumb|300px|right|{{ga|Lucas}} digs for treasure, while {{ga|Dawn}} sets up traps in the Underground.]]
As in the regular world, using the D-pad lets the player walk in any direction and holding "B" allows running. As the regular Bag is not able to be used in the Underground, the [[Bicycle|Bike]] is not available to increase speed further. Steps taken in the Underground do not count towards hatching {{pkmn|Egg}}s or the Counter App, but time spent counts towards the overall game timer. The game cannot be paused (by closing the DS lid or otherwise) while in the Underground. Additionally, since the wireless features consume more power than usual operation, the player should be careful not to drain the battery completely while in the Underground.

There are six independent sections of the labyrinth, each accessible from different places in Sinnoh. In terms of vendors and mining treasures, the areas are equivalent. When participating in multiplayer action in the Underground, players should make sure they are all in the same set of caverns.

The vast majority of the tunnels are 5 squares wide, with some single-square-width passageways between parallel tunnels. The player can see roughly 12x15 squares on the screen at any given time (not accounting for side effects of the top-down perspective). By touching any area of the lower touch screen, a radar pulse indicates interactive objects within a 4-5 square radius, indicated by yellow sparkles. There appears to be a maximum of 8-10 sparkles that will display if a particular ping returns too many objects.

If a sparkle revealed by a ping is located on the floor of the tunnel, it is either a [[trap]] or a sphere. A difference in whether a sphere or trap is hidden in the sparkle, a trap has a white sparkle while a sphere has a golden one. If both are hidden in one spot, a trap is found first, then a sphere. If the sparkle is in the wall, it is a bulging section that can be mined.

===Mining===
[[File:Underground mining DPPt.png|thumb|right|Mining for treasure using the hammer]]
One of the main attractions of the Underground is the mining minigame. To mine, the player must find a spot where the wall 'pings' by touching the screen and looking for sparkles. These spots will appear randomly in the Underground, usually in clusters, and can be located by looking for sparkles marked on the radar screen. They appear more frequently near buried spheres, and so one way players can ensure they always have a lot of mining spots available to them is to make a "sphere garden" by burying many spheres in the same area.

The game itself is similar to {{wp|Battleship (game)|Battleship}} or {{wp|Minesweeper (computer game)|Minesweeper}}. At the start, the cave wall is shown, represented by a grid full of squares. There are three depths of wall: the tan soil, which can be broken through in one hit, the darker soil, which needs two hits to be broken through, and the large rocks, which each need three hits to be broken through. The player digs into the wall with a pick, which chips away small areas of rock, and a hammer, which breaks a larger area of the rock. Each spot will hide one to four [[item]]s, including [[sphere]]s, [[Fossil]]s, [[Revive]]s, [[Heart Scale]]s, [[shard]]s, pre-Generation IV [[evolutionary stone]]s, [[Plate]]s, and a few [[held item]]s. Iron pieces are also in the wall, which cannot be dug out and prevent further mining upon discovery (that is, when they are uncovered on a direct hit, no other spaces are revealed until the next hit). Upon hitting a piece of iron a small 'ping' will be heard. Each hit will bring the wall closer to collapsing; if the wall collapses before everything is dug up, the game ends and the player is rewarded with what they dug up before the wall collapsed.

In addition, if anyone else is mining nearby, a pickaxe will appear on the player's screen wherever the other player hits on their screen. This helps clear the wall without contributing to the wall's collapse.

At first, only [[Skull and Armor Fossils|Skull or Armor Fossils]] can be found depending on the game version{{sup/4|DP}} or the last digit of the player's [[Trainer ID number]]{{sup/4|Pt}}. After obtaining the [[National Pokédex]], however, the game will also yield [[Helix and Dome Fossils|Helix Fossils, Dome Fossils]], [[Old Amber]]s, [[Root and Claw Fossils|Root Fossils, and Claw Fossils]]. A number of items that were found rarely prior to obtaining the National Pokédex can also be found more easily now, such as the evolutionary stones. Furthermore, in the {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} games, [[Fire Stone]]s, [[Thunder Stone|Thunderstone]]s, [[Sun Stone]]s, [[Heat Rock]]s, [[Icy Rock]]s, Helix Fossils, and Claw Fossils can be found more easily in Diamond, while [[Water Stone]]s, [[Leaf Stone]]s, [[Moon Stone]]s, [[Damp Rock]]s, [[Smooth Rock]]s, Dome Fossils, and Root Fossils can be found more easily in Pearl.

====Burying spheres====
Burying spheres is done through the Underground's [[menu]] function. It will not work, however, when the player faces a wall: spheres can only be buried in the ground. The longer the spheres remain buried, the larger they will grow. In the player's presence, their buried sphere will occasionally let off a bright glint. Buried spheres are only accessible to the player that put them there; others cannot see them, ping them, or interact with them in any way. Others can, however, take advantage of the increased mining spots generated. This can be beneficial for the player who buried the spheres and a friend (or friends), as there will be plenty of opportunities to mine side-by-side.

====Item shapes====
Items have unique shapes in the mining minigame. Larger items cover a greater area and can thus be found more easily, but take more digging to unearth.

===Secret Bases===
The Underground is also where [[Secret Base]]s are created in the [[Generation IV]] games. The spheres dug up in the mining minigame can be traded to explorers found throughout the caves for objects to furnish Secret Bases. Secret Bases can be created in any part of the wall using a [[Digger Drill]]. These bases can be decorated with ten items each.

If a player visits a Secret Base of another player, they can get that player's flag. After successfully returning the other player's flag to one's own base, the player's record is updated. The number of flags captured (either from the same "opponent" or several ones) upgrades the player's Secret Base computer. Each upgrade changes the graphic slightly (the icons resemble the evolution of personal computer technology) and also allows the player to remove additional boulders from their base using the "Store" option of the "Decorate" menu. This allows more room for decorations to be placed. Boulders that have been removed cannot be placed back into the base, although they'll reappear if a new base is created. By default, player can use only 10 decorations.

|}{{-}}

A player who has a flag cannot do anything besides store the flag in their PC. If they try, the game will alert them that they have to drop their flag first. If the owner of the flag talks to someone who has stolen it, the flag is automatically returned to their base, while if another player talks to someone who has stolen a flag, that person steals the flag from the other person, and then they can try to get the flag to their base.

===Traps===
Another feature of the underground is [[trap]]s. These can also be purchased from explorers with spheres or found in the path in the same manner that the player can find mining spots: by touching the screen and watching for sparkles on the ground. They may also be dug up, like the Spheres, by pressing the A button when next to one, facing it. Players may only carry a total of 40 traps at one time; an attempt to unearth a 41st trap will be refused and the trap left where it is. If a player steps on a trap, they may be sent flying in a specific direction, have their controls altered so they walk the wrong way, or they may have to use the stylus or microphone to clear a hazard, such as by popping bubbles or clearing smoke, or a message will be broadcast to all players in the Underground. The game will explain how to escape from a trap, however if the trap was placed by an opponent, he or she will be alerted that someone has landed in it. If one player is caught in a trap, another can face them and press A to immediately get them out of it. Since all players run at the same speed, well placed traps are the primary means of catching up to someone who has stolen a player's flag. If a player has set some of his/her own [[trap]]s they will show up as brightly colored squares with symbols matching their names. This helps the player as to not get caught in her/his own traps.

===Vendors===
A crucial feature of the underground is vendors. These explorers appear to be stationary and only rotate in place. There are three types of vendors in the underground. The first group of vendors are those who accept the player's treasures and give them spheres in return. The second group of vendors are those who accept spheres and give goods in return, and vice versa. The last group of vendors are those who accept spheres and give traps in return, and vice versa. Vendors change their prices on items and which items they sell every day, so one vendor may not have the same item for two days in a row. Vendors allow the player to decorate their Secret Base and plant traps anywhere in the underground. In the map of the underground at the top of the page, the yellow dots are the trap vendors, the red dots are the treasure vendors, and the blue dots are the goods vendors.

==Multiplayer==
When entering the Underground, the DS Wireless Communication is activated. Other players within range choosing to enter the Underground will be able to interact in the same set of tunnels. As described above, players can enter one another's Secret Bases and set traps. Additionally, digging in the walls next to each other allows players to collaborate on the excavation.

Players can talk to each other just like NPCs in the above world. In doing so, they can exchange Goods used to decorate a Secret Base, and they can communicate using a basic question and answer selection menu. Each time a player talks to another player, the counter on their card is incremented. This counter reaching 32 is one of the prerequisites for encountering {{p|Spiritomb}}.

==Item appearances==
There's a 20% chance for an item to be found in a bulging wall. Some items, such as most of the fossils, can only be found after obtaining the National Pokédex.

==In the anime==
[[File:The Underground anime.png|thumb|250px|The Underground tunnels in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
The Underground appeared in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]''. While {{Ash}} was battling [[Gardenia]] for the {{Badge|Forest}}, {{TRT}} stumbled across the sprawling tunnels of the Underground.

However, he fled with the treasure while they ate.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
The Underground's network of tunnels enabled [[Professor Rowan]], [[Mr. Berlitz]], the Underground Man, and the [[Gym Leader]]s of Sinnoh to reach the [[Spear Pillar]] and assemble without [[Team Galactic]] noticing near the end of the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}.

==Trivia==
* Air vents that serve to provide the Underground with a supply of air can be found all over the surface of Sinnoh.
* Walking into a wall will not cause the 'bump' audio to play.
* The Underground has rotational symmetry.
* The player's PC is only updated when the door is shut; if it is open then the PC reverts to the very first look.
* The Underground is featured in one of the paintings on display in [[Lumiose City|Lumiose Museum]] in [[Pokémon X and Y]].
* The Underground's background music is partially a remastered {{rt|111|Hoenn}} theme.

'''Giratina''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギラティナ''' ''Giratina'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ghost|Dragon}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] to or from any other Pokémon, it has a [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Giratina|second forme]] activated by giving Giratina a [[Timespace orbs|Griseous Orb]] to hold, or while it is in its home, the [[Distortion World]]. Its original forme, '''Altered Forme''', will then become '''Origin Forme'''.

Giratina's Origin Forme was officially revealed in early February 2008.

In Origin Forme, Giratina is the [[game mascot]] of {{game|Platinum}}.

Along with {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, it is a member of the [[creation trio]] of [[Sinnoh]], representing {{wp|antimatter}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Giratina Dimension Transfer Power.png|250px|thumb|left|Giratina creating a portal to the [[Reverse World]] in the anime]]
Giratina is a large gray draconic Pokémon with gold half rings circling the back of its neck. Its head has a gold crown-like object surrounding it with two large horns pointing sideways. A thick black stripe runs vertically along the front with red horizontal stripes. In its Altered Forme, it has two large black ghostly wings with red tips that can resemble claws. These wings can change shape as if it's a liquid or gas. Its six legs are thick and clawed.

In its Origin Forme, it takes on a serpentine look, with six black ghostly streamers on its back with red spikes at the tips. Its legs are reduced to spikes, and four additional golden spikes appear near the edge of its tail. While in Origin Forme, the three gold half-rings can grip objects. The horns on its head are now facing the back, and the black vertical stripe is broken into pieces and runs all the way down its body. It can only be in its Origin Forme when in its home, the [[Reverse World]], or when holding a [[Timespace orbs|Griseous Orb]].

Giratina is able to travel through and control dimensions besides those of time and space. When in its Origin Forme, it is able to pass through dimensions at will, however, it will turn back to its Altered Forme due to the gravity change from the Reverse World. It does so by emitting a whirlwind from its mouth which creates a portal. It also seems to have a connection to reflective objects, such as mirrors and pools of water. Reflections embody the concept of the Reverse World. Giratina is a highly aggressive and territorial Pokémon protective of its home. [[Sinnoh myths|Legends]] claim that Giratina appears in cemeteries and that it supposedly lives in a world on the reverse side. It was said to be banished for violence. Giratina is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Shadow Force}}.

Upon arrival, Giratina was challenged by [[Volkner]] and {{OBP|Flint|Elite Four}}, but quickly ended the resistance of their {{p|Electivire}} and {{p|Magmortar}}.

Eventually, Giratina fought Dialga, Palkia and [[Reg]] all at once inside the Distortion World. After Charon's flying craft was destroyed, he decided to retreat by commanding Giratina to fly him out of the Distortion World. However, Charon and Giratina were impeded by a {{m|Draco Meteor}} from [[Cynthia]]'s {{p|Garchomp}} as soon as they arrived back in the Pokémon world. After Charon's arrest by [[Looker]], Giratina rose again and tried to ambush {{adv|Platinum}} but Volkner's Electivire and Flint's Magmortar finished it off. Giratina was forced to return to the Distortion World on Dialga and Palkia's command.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, Giratina was created in the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], along with Dialga and Palkia, by {{p|Arceus}}' creation process, which was forced by [[Team Rocket]]'s [[Executive (Trainer class)|Four Generals]]. Knowing that the creation process would threaten the [[Johto]] region, Team Rocket's true leader {{adv|Giovanni}} returned with [[Lance]] and [[Pryce]] to keep the creation trio at bay while {{adv|Gold}} tried to calm Arceus down.

[[File:Altered Forme Giratina Encounter Pt.png|thumb|Altered Forme Giratina at [[Turnback Cave]] in {{game|Platinum}}]]
* Giratina has many differences from the other members of [[creation trio|its trio]]:
** It is the only member with [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form differences]].
** It is the only member without any double resistances.
** Its HP is its highest stat rather than Special Attack.
** It does not have a [[timespace orbs|timespace orb]] in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (the [[Timespace orbs|Griseous Orb]] is introduced in Pokémon Platinum).
** It is met at level 70 in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl while the other members are met at level 47. This is reversed in Pokémon Platinum.
** It is separated from the other members of its group in the Pokédex by {{p|Heatran}} and {{p|Regigigas}}.
** It is the only member with a catch rate of 3, and the only one without a 100% [[Recruitment|recruit rate]] in the [[Mystery Dungeon]] series.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Giratina.
** This also makes it the only dual typed Pokémon weak to both of its own types.
* Giratina has the highest base stat total of all {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.
** Giratina is tied with {{p|Drifblim}} for the highest HP base stat of all Ghost-type Pokémon.

* Giratina is the only Pokémon that appears last in a regional Pokédex listing that is not an event-exclusive Pokémon.
* Giratina is the only Legendary Pokémon that can be obtained in all five of the Generation IV core series handheld games.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the second frame of Giratina's Altered Forme sprite was changed, but the static sprite remained the same.
** This sprite is also present in Pokémon Platinum's data, but is unused.
* In Pokémon Platinum, when encountered in the Distortion World the unique message "The Distortion World's Giratina appeared" is displayed. However, it is still a [[wild Pokémon]].
* In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, in the [[The Battle Between Legendary Pokémon]], [[Fantina]] has an Origin Forme Giratina without a Griseous Orb.
* Altered Forme Giratina is the heaviest Ghost-type Pokémon.
** Origin Forme Giratina is the tallest {{Type|Ghost}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Giratina may be based on Seta, a giant centipede, from the Japanese fairytale, "{{wp|My Lord Bag of Rice}}", which was said to prey on dragon hatchlings and be as large as a mountain. Giratina's Altered Forme is also possibly based on a {{wp|basilisk}}, and its Origin Forme may be based on a {{wp|snake|serpent}}.

In its Altered Forme, Giratina's wings may be based on a bat's, and its body has an insect-like, six-legged feature, but its posture is similar to a {{wp|sauropod}}.

Its Origin Forme has a body similar to a serpent, while the six protrusions on its body may be based on a {{wp|scorpion}}'s stinger or {{wp|spider}} legs. This Forme also shares physical traits with the {{wp|Amphiptere}}, a {{wp|European dragon}}-like creature with wings but no legs.

Both formes may also be based on the {{wp|Eunice aphroditois|Bobbit worm}}.

In interviews [[Junichi Masuda]] and Takeshi Kawachimaru did with {{wp|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}, they said that Giratina and the Distortion World were created to be personifications of {{wp|antimatter}}.<ref>[http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/694081/junichi-masuda-takeshi-kawachimaru-talk-pokemon-platinum-particle-physics-bridges-and-more/ Junichi Masuda & Takeshi Kawachimaru Talk 'Pokemon Platinum', Particle Physics, Bridges, And More! - G4tv.com]</ref> In HeartGold and SoulSilver, [[Cynthia]] also states this.

The ghost typing could be based on the three forms of matter currently known during development of [[Generation IV]], [[Dialga]] representing solid, [[Palkia]] representing liquid and Giratina representing gas.

====Name origin====
Giratina may be a combination of ''{{wp|girasol}}'' (a type of red {{wp|opal}}), ''{{wp|guillotine}}'', or ''girare'' (Italian for ''to wander around''); and プラチナ ''purachina'' (Japanese for {{wp|platinum}}).

'''Dialga''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ディアルガ''' ''Dialga'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Dragon}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Dialga is the [[game mascot]] of {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond|s}}, appearing on the boxart.

Along with {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Giratina}}, it is a member of the [[creation trio]] of [[Sinnoh]], representing time.

==Biology==
Dialga is a dark blue {{wp|sauropod}}-like Pokémon with some gray metallic portions, such as its chestplate, which has a diamond in the center. It also has various light blue stripes. It has a fin-like structure on its back and a crest on its head, resembling a dinosaur. Dialga also has two horns on top of its head, two fang-like horns around its mouth, and three spines on the back of its neck. It has three claws on each foot of the same metallic looks as its chestplate. The wing-like structure on its back can be used to focus the flow of time, as seen in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time, Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]].

Dialga can warp time by either speeding it up, slowing it down, or stopping it altogether. As Dialga primarily resides in a [[Dimensions|different dimension]], its behavior is nearly impossible to study. It has been shown to be very protective of its home. It also tends to have violent conflicts with its counterpart, {{p|Palkia}}. Dialga is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Roar of Time}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Dialga anime movie 12.png|thumb|250px|Dialga in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===In the main series===
====Major appearances====
=====[[Dialga (movie)]]=====
Dialga appeared in the first three {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} [[Pokémon movie]]s. It was first shown in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where it fought with {{mov|Palkia}} and {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} in a battle that nearly destroyed [[Alamos Town]]. The same Dialga appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. On its return trip back to its own dimension, Dialga ended up in the [[Reverse World]] and got attacked by {{mov|Giratina}}. The Renegade Pokémon had been angered by Dialga and Palkia's fight in the previous movie. Dialga's final movie appearance was in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. It was shown for the first time with both the other members of its [[creation trio|trio]]. After being called by [[Sheena]] to stop a spatial distortion, it briefly fought with Giratina once more. Later, it returned to help Palkia and Giratina fight {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}}, and sent Sheena, {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}} back in time to fix Arceus's betrayal.

[[File:Primal Dialga anime.png|thumb|left|220px|Primal Dialga in the anime]]
=====[[Primal Dialga]]=====
Primal Dialga made two brief appearances in ''[[SS021|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky - Beyond Time & Darkness]]'' as the protector of the [[Time Gear]]s.

=====Other=====
Dialga had a major appearance in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', in the conclusion of [[Team Galactic]]'s plot at [[Mt. Coronet]]. It is unknown if this is the same Dialga as that in the movies.

Dialga appeared in the second {{series|XY}} {{pkmn|movie}}, ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', as one of the many [[Legendary Pokémon]] summoned by {{an|Hoopa}}.

====Minor appearances====

==In the manga==
[[File:Dialga Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Dialga in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
[[File:Primal Dialga BET.png|thumb|200px|Primal Dialga in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blazing Exploration Team]]]]
===In the movie adaptations===
{{main|Dialga (movie)}}
Dialga first appeared in ''{{ma|The Rise of Darkrai}}'' where it was fighting with {{mov|Palkia}}.

In the [[Arceus and the Jewel of Life (manga)|twelfth movie manga adaption]], Dialga, along with the members of its trio, was summoned by [[Sheena]] to help Ash and his friends. Dialga, {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Giratina}} battle Arceus and it soon puts Sheena and the others in the past to uncover the betrayal Sheena's ancestor made.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Creation trio (Adventures)}}
Dialga, along with Palkia, was summoned by [[Cyrus]] in the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} in order to create a new world. Cyrus used the Red Chains to force Dialga and Palkia to fight each other in order to distort time and space and create a portal that would swallow the existing world. {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} worked together with their Pokémon to free Dialga and Palkia from their controlled states. It first appeared in ''[[PS410|Creeping Away from Cradily]]''.

Later on, an accident with handling [[Charon]]'s machine caused Dialga, Palkia and Cyrus to be dragged into the portal before it closed completely. In the {{chap|Platinum}}, it was revealed that {{p|Giratina}} imprisoned both Dialga and Palkia in the [[Distortion World]] before setting off into the current dimension to wreak havoc. Soon, Cyrus and Diamond met in the Distortion World, and agreed to free Dialga and Palkia using their Pokémon. Dialga and Palkia later resumed their struggle against Giratina in the Distortion World. When Charon decided to escape from the Distortion World on Giratina, Diamond got on Dialga and chased after him. Giratina was eventually defeated, with Dialga and Palkia forcing it back into the Distortion World for good, before both returned to the Spear Pillar.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, Dialga was created in the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], along with Palkia and Giratina, by {{p|Arceus}}' creation process, which was forced by [[Team Rocket]]'s [[Executive (Trainer class)|Four Generals]]. Knowing that the creation process would threaten the [[Johto]] region, Team Rocket's true leader {{adv|Giovanni}} returned with [[Lance]] and [[Pryce]] to keep the creation trio at bay while {{adv|Gold}} tried to calm Arceus down. Dialga was kept at bay by Pryce and his {{p|Swinub}}. Once Arceus was eventually becalmed, Dialga and Palkia departed from Johto and were spotted by [[Cynthia]].

===In the Pokémon Battrio: Aim to be Battrio Master! manga===
A Dialga appeared in [[ABM02]] under the ownership of [[Manabu Kazuo]].

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
In [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]], [[Hareta]] and [[Mitsumi]] set out on a journey with the intention of finding the god-like Pokémon, Dialga. In ''[[DPA20|The Advent of the Legendary Pokémon!!]]'' [[Cyrus]] successfully controlled Dialga after he gained control of the Red Chain. When Hareta tried to snap Dialga out of Cyrus's control, it was able to flee from Cyrus.

===In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blazing Exploration Team manga===
{{main|Primal Dialga}}
A Dialga with a darker color appeared in [[BET3]].

===In the Pocket Monsters Platinum: Aim to Be Battle King!! manga===
Dialga, along with the members of its trio, appeared in [[PBK5]] where it fought against {{OBP|Shin|PBK}}'s {{p|Abomasnow}} and {{p|Mamoswine}} and defeated the former. It fought against [[Yū Shirogane]] and lost.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
Dialga appeared in [[PMDP29]] of {{OBP|Pocket Monsters DP|Kosaku Anakubo}}.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
[[Image:SSBBSpearPillarDialga.png|thumb|Dialga on the {{St|Spear Pillar}}]]
Dialga appears as a stage Pokémon along with {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, and the [[lake guardians]] on the stage {{St|Spear Pillar}}. It affects the stage much differently than that of its counterpart, such as slowing down time, and even going off its post to attack the players in the middle. It can also distort the stage, like Palkia, but only slightly and not as extreme, as well as shoot beams from various locations.

====Trophy information====
''A Temporal Pokémon. This legendary Pokémon is talked about as a deity in fables passed down through generations in the Sinnoh region. Identifiable by the diamondlike crystal in the center of its chest, Dialga is said to have set time in motion at the moment of its birth. Its fearsome {{m|Roar of Time}} attack is so powerful that it must refrain from attacking on the next turn. It is Diamond's mascot.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===
Dialga appears as a trophy.

====Trophy information====
''The concept of time has always been one of the world's great mysteries, but Dialga might hold the answer. Legend has it that Dialga's birth caused time to begin moving! It's no surprise that the people of Sinnoh see this Pokémon as a deity. If you're ever running late, maybe you could ask Dialga to do you a favour and turn back the clock.''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
{{spoilers}}
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness]] [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|& Sky]]: Dialga appears in the main storyline, but mostly as [[Primal Dialga]]. In the future, because of the collapse of the [[Temporal Tower]], Dialga has lost control of itself and has entered a state of self-preservation, keeping time frozen and refusing to let it flow properly. When the player and partner return from the future and arrive at the collapsing Tower, they must beat almost-Primal Dialga in battle and restore the Tower. After putting some sense into it, Dialga is so grateful that it revives the player (who was erased from existence). After going back to Dialga at the top of Temporal Tower, it decides that the player wants a rematch. Once defeated, Dialga joins the player's team. In the Sky-only Special Episode [[In the Future of Darkness]], after the final battle between Primal Dialga and the trio of {{mdc|Grovyle|2}}, {{mdc|Dusknoir|2}} and {{mdc|Celebi|2}}, all of them start to disappear due to the past finally being changed by the player, but are saved by [[Arceus (Pokémon)|an implied higher being than Dialga]], who also restores Dialga to its normal state.
* [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]: Dialga appears as a bonus boss during one of the Ranger Net extra missions. Dialga was injured from a battle with Palkia and entered [[Almia Castle]] to recover. It caused a time distortion due to its wounds and sent the main character and {{Ra|Wendy}} back in time to before the events of the game started by using {{m|Roar of Time}}.
* [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]]: Dialga appears in the optional Ranger Net extra mission Pledge to Arceus. It must be captured along with its counterparts Palkia and Giratina in the Sky Fortress to access Arceus.

==Trivia==
* In games prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Dialga has a catch rate of 30.
* No other Pokémon shares the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Dialga.
* Dialga is the tallest [[Generation IV]] Pokémon.
* Dialga is tied with Blade Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest {{Stat|Special Attack}} base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* The spikes on Dialga's back, at a certain point of view, look similar to a [[Time Gears|time gear]]. In the anime, when Dialga uses {{m|Roar of Time}}, the spine extends and the five spikes become thinner and more pronounced.
* Dialga is the second Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] to feature an {{Shiny|alternate coloration}} that is [[Primal Dialga|not its Shiny coloration]], the first being {{p|Kecleon}}.
* Although Dialga is genderless in the main games, it is referred to as a male in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]].
* Dialga is the first Legendary Pokémon to have a role in three different movies, and therefore four movies as well.
* According to [[Junichi Masuda]]'s blog, the Spanish translation team suggested changing the name Dialga because of its similarity to the word ''alga'', seaweed.

===Origin===
Dialga, along with {{p|Palkia}}, may be based on the {{wp|Shinto}} legend of {{wp|Izanami}} and {{wp|Izanagi}}, who are said to have created one island with a spear, erected a pillar on it, and from there created the islands of Japan. Appearance-wise, Dialga seems to be based on short-necked sauropod dinosaurs such as ''{{wp|Camarasaurus}}'' or ''{{wp|Brachytrachelopan}}''. Its type is {{t|Steel}} possibly due to the hardness of {{wp|diamonds}}, or the fact that most parts of a clock are made of metal, such as the gears. It may also be because diamonds are compressed carbon, and steel is an alloy from iron and carbon. The steel typing could also be based on the three forms of matter currently known during development of [[Generation IV]], Dialga representing solid, [[Palkia]] representing liquid and [[Giratina]] representing gas. Its turquoise pattern on its body is vaguely reminiscent to clock hands, where the ends of the "clock hands" are diamond-shaped.

====Name origin====
Dialga is derived from diamond. ''Ga'' may be a corruption of ''gon'' from ''dragon''. It may also involve ''dia'' (Spanish for ''day'', referring to a unit of time) or ''dial'' (as in ''{{wp|sundial}}'', an instrument used to tell time using shadows on a clock face).

'''Palkia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''パルキア''' ''Palkia'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Dragon}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Palkia is the [[game mascot]] of [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Pearl]], appearing on the boxart.

Along with {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Giratina}}, it is a member of the [[creation trio]] of [[Sinnoh]], representing space.

==Biology==
Palkia is a light purple {{wp|theropod}}-like Pokémon with stripes and markings of a darker shade and gray underarms and waist. It has round purple-striped plates on its shoulder area, where two pink pearls lie encrusted with a gray rim encircling them and fins in their back. Palkia’s arms have extended formations resembling gauntlets and a purple band around each wrist. Palkia has a long neck, a pointed white crest on the top of its head that extends to its wings, two strong horn-like tusks on the sides of its jaw, and a powerful tail. As seen in {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}, Palkia travels by creating a large yellow sphere from its two pearls, then using it to fly very fast.

Palkia has the ability to warp space, though it was said to create alternate realities as well. Palkia lives in a different dimension, making its behavior nearly impossible to study. However, Palkia has been seen in violent conflicts with its counterpart, {{p|Dialga}}. It has been known to be very protective of its home as well. Palkia is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Spacial Rend}}.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
====Major appearances====
[[File:Palkia anime.png|thumb|left|220px|Palkia in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
=====[[Palkia (movie)]]=====

==In the manga==
[[File:Palkia Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Palkia in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the movie adaptations===
{{main|Palkia (movie)}}
Palkia debuted in ''{{ma|The Rise of Darkrai}}'' manga adaptation fighting {{mov|Dialga}}.

In the ''{{ma|Arceus and the Jewel of Life}}'' manga adaptation, Palkia, along with the members of its trio, were summoned by [[Sheena]] to help Ash and his friends. Palkia soon engaged in a battle with the other members of its trio with {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}}.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Creation trio (Adventures)}}
Palkia, along with Dialga, was summoned by [[Cyrus]] in the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} in order to create a new world. Cyrus used the Red Chains to force Dialga and Palkia to fight each other in order to distort time and space and create a portal that would swallow the existing world. {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Platinum}} worked together with their Pokémon to free Dialga and Palkia from their controlled states. It first appeared in ''[[PS410|Creeping Away from Cradily]]''.

Later on, an accident with handling [[Charon]]'s machine caused Dialga, Palkia and Cyrus to be dragged into the portal before it closed completely. In the {{chap|Platinum}}, it was revealed that {{p|Giratina}} imprisoned both Dialga and Palkia in the [[Distortion World]] before setting off into the current dimension to wreak havoc. Soon, Cyrus and Diamond met in the Distortion World, and agreed to free Dialga and Palkia using their Pokémon. Dialga and Palkia later resumed their struggle against Giratina in the Distortion World. When Charon decided to escape from the Distortion World on Giratina, Pearl got on Palkia and chased after him. Giratina was eventually defeated, with Dialga and Palkia forcing it back into the Distortion World for good, before both returned to the Spear Pillar.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, Palkia was created in the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], along with Dialga and Giratina, by {{p|Arceus}}' creation process, which was forced by [[Team Rocket]]'s [[Executive (Trainer class)|Four Generals]]. Knowing that the creation process would threaten the [[Johto]] region, Team Rocket's true leader {{adv|Giovanni}} returned with [[Lance]] and [[Pryce]] to keep the creation trio at bay while {{adv|Gold}} tried to calm Arceus down. Palkia was kept at bay by Lance and his {{p|Dragonite}}. Once Arceus was eventually becalmed, Dialga and Palkia departed from Johto and were spotted by [[Cynthia]].

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
Palkia appeared in ''[[DPA20|The Advent of the Legendary Pokémon!!]]'' as a silhouette. It officially debuted in ''[[DPA21|Will Hareta's Wish Get Through?!]]''.

===In the Pocket Monsters Platinum: Aim to Be Battle King!! manga===
Palkia, along with the members of its trio, appeared in [[PBK5]] where it fought against {{OBP|Shin|PBK}}'s {{p|Abomasnow}} and {{p|Mamoswine}} and defeated the latter. It fought against [[Yū Shirogane]] and lost.

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

==Other appearances==
===Super Smash Bros. Brawl===
[[File:SSBBSpearPillarPalkia.png|thumb|Palkia on {{St|Spear Pillar}}]]
Palkia occasionally appears on the {{St|Spear Pillar}} stage as one of three Pokémon that controls it. It only appears on the stage when the ground on the upper levels have a purple tinge to them. Unlike Dialga and {{p|Cresselia}}, it'll use its powers to distort the stage however possible. Some examples include tilting the stage, turning the stage completely upside down and reversing the screen itself (the last two will cause the movement controls to be reversed temporarily). It often shoot beams in the cave below, dealing a lot of damage to the players that get caught in the blast.

====Trophy information====
''"A Spatial Pokémon. In the Sinnoh region, this Pokémon has been revered for many generations, much like Dialga. Dialga warps time, but Palkia has control over space. It lives between parallel dimensions and is known for its power, rumored to be able to warp space. It can use {{m|Spacial Rend}} to rip through the very space an enemy resides in, damaging the foe at the same time. It is Pearl's mascot."''

===Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U===
Palkia appears as a Pokémon released from a [[Poké Ball]]. It will use Spacial Rend, which will flip the stage for a time, and can cause damage. Palkia also causes damage on contact.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''Stories surround this Legendary Water/ Dragon-type Pokémon, saying that it has control over all of space. Its Spacial Rend attack will tear space and flip the screen upside down. When this happens, the left and right controls of the fighters will become flipped as well. ''

'''PAL''': ''Stories of this Legendary Pokémon say that Palkia is a god that controls all of space. When it uses its Spacial Rend attack in Super Smash Bros., it causes the screen to flip upside down. If that wasn't confusing enough, it also flips the left and right controls!''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: {{mdc|Palkia|2}} plays a major part in the game's post-story. Palkia first appears when he attacks the {{player}} and partner at [[Sharpedo Bluff]] having learnt from {{mdc|Darkrai|2}} (disguised as {{p|Cresselia}}) that they were responsible for space being distorted but the real Cresselia appeared and sorted things out.
* [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]: Palkia appears as a bonus boss during one of the Ranger Net extra missions. Palkia was injured from a battle with Dialga and entered [[Hippowdon Temple]]. In its pain, it warped the space of the Almia region and caused all of the locations of Almia to be shuffled together.

==Trivia==
* In games prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Palkia has a catch rate of 30.
* The gems on Palkia's shoulders resemble Pale [[Sphere]]s.
* Although Palkia is genderless in the main games, it is referred to as a male in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]].
* Palkia is in the highest [[IQ]] group. It takes this position in IQ group J and is the only Pokémon in IQ group J.
* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]], Palkia, along with [[Primal Dialga]], the [[Legendary titans]], the {{p|Magnemite}} family, and {{p|Regigigas}}, all speak in all capital letters, unlike the other Pokémon in the game.

===Origin===
Palkia, along with {{p|Dialga}}, may be based on the {{wp|Shinto}} legend of {{wp|Izanami}} and {{wp|Izanagi}}, who are said to have created one island with a spear, erected a pillar on it, and from there created the islands of Japan. Appearance-wise, Palkia is likely based after a European {{wp|dragon}} combined with a {{wp|pearl}}. Its appearance may also be derived from the ''{{wp|Plateosaurus}}'' or other bipedal dinosaurs such as the ''{{wp|Oviraptor}}''. The water typing could be based on the three forms of matter currently known during development of [[Generation IV]], [[Dialga]] representing solid, Palkia representing liquid and [[Giratina]] representing gas.

====Name origin====
Palkia is derived from the Japanese spelling of pearl, パール ''pāru''.

'''Feraligatr''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オーダイル''' ''Ordile'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Croconaw}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is the final form of {{p|Totodile}}.

==Biology==
Feraligatr is a bulky, bipedal crocodilian Pokémon that is primarily blue with accents of red and yellow. A notable feature of Feraligatr is its large, powerful jaws that are able to bite and lock down on opponents. Three pointed teeth are visible when Feraligatr closes its mouth, two from the lower jaw and one from the upper. Feraligatr intimidates its foes by opening its huge mouth. Feraligatr has three sets of spikes on its body: one on its head, one on its back, and one near the tip of its tail. The one on its back appears particularly prominent, due to its size and the bulk of Feraligatr’s shoulders. It has a bisected, V-shaped yellow pattern between its thighs. Feraligatr also has large scales on its arms, tail, and legs. When hunting or fighting, Feraligatr is agile and fast, due to its powerful hind legs that are used to kick the ground hard and charge. Feraligatr can rarely be found living near {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water}}.

==Trivia==
* Feraligatr reaches its final evolutionary form earlier than any other starter Pokémon, at level 30. However, {{p|Totodile}} evolves at level 18, the latest of any basic starter Pokémon, tied with {{p|Turtwig}}.
* Feraligatr shares the same base stat values with {{p|Blastoise}}, but differently attributed.
* Feraligatr is the only fully evolved [[Johto]] starter to appear in [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]].
*Despite an increase in character limit in [[Pokemon X and Y]] they didn't change the name to "Feraligater" and kept it as is.

===Origin===
Like {{p|Totodile}} and {{p|Croconaw}}, Feraligatr is a {{wp|crocodilia}}n. It visually resembles an {{wp|alligator}}.

====Name origin====
Feraligatr is a combination of ''feral'' and ''{{wp|alligator}}''. It may also derive from ''ferocious''. The shortening of "gator" into ''gatr'' is most likely a result of the ten-character limit on English Pokémon names in [[Generation II]].

Ordile may be a combination of 王 ''ō'' (king), 皇 ''ō'' (emperor), or 大 ''ō'' (large), and ''{{wp|crocodile}}''.

List of unobtainable items

2017-04-15T09:46:49Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* In Generation VII */

This is a list of all '''items that appear in the internal data of Pokémon games, but are not obtainable as [[Bag|inventory]] [[item]]s''' by any legitimate means in that game or set of games.

This does not include items which are carried over between successive game releases within a particular [[generation]], such as items in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} that remain in the internal data of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Instead, it includes items that are not available in non-successive game releases or in any game within a particular generation, items which availability differs between regional releases of one or more games within a particular generation, and items that are used and programmed in as inventory items but that are otherwise unobtainable (only accessible) during regular gameplay.

List of unobtainable items

2017-04-15T09:42:57Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* In Generation V onwards */

This is a list of all '''items that appear in the internal data of Pokémon games, but are not obtainable as [[Bag|inventory]] [[item]]s''' by any legitimate means in that game or set of games.

This does not include items which are carried over between successive game releases within a particular [[generation]], such as items in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} that remain in the internal data of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Instead, it includes items that are not available in non-successive game releases or in any game within a particular generation, items which availability differs between regional releases of one or more games within a particular generation, and items that are used and programmed in as inventory items but that are otherwise unobtainable (only accessible) during regular gameplay.

List of unobtainable items

2017-04-15T09:31:51Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* In Generation IV onwards */

This is a list of all '''items that appear in the internal data of Pokémon games, but are not obtainable as [[Bag|inventory]] [[item]]s''' by any legitimate means in that game or set of games.

This does not include items which are carried over between successive game releases within a particular [[generation]], such as items in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} that remain in the internal data of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Instead, it includes items that are not available in non-successive game releases or in any game within a particular generation, items which availability differs between regional releases of one or more games within a particular generation, and items that are used and programmed in as inventory items but that are otherwise unobtainable (only accessible) during regular gameplay.

'''Drapion''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドラピオン''' ''Dorapion'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Skorupi}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Drapion is a large, purple, scorpion-like Pokémon. Its eyes are a pointed shape, with blue-colored upper portions. Drapion has two small, pointed protrusions between its eyes, and one on the back on its head. Drapion also has protrusions on its jaws, two on the upper and three on the lower, with large, fang-like, white-colored features extending from its mouth. Its body is composed of many violet-to-lavender body segments which ends with a tail with two stingers. Drapion has four segmented legs with pointed toes. Its most distinguished feature is its huge claws. It can turn its head 180 degrees.

Drapion is a very aggressive Pokémon, attacking anything that enters its territory. It has a sturdy build and takes pride in its strength, being able to take down foes even without the use of its deadly toxin. It has enough power to easily scrap a car.

==In the anime==
[[File:Paul Drapion.png|thumb|left|250px|Drapion in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

[[Paul]] has a Drapion which he used to battle Ash in ''[[DP186|Familiarity Breeds Strategy!]]'', ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]'' and ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]''. It managed to defeat {{AP|Buizel}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Torterra}} before losing to {{AP|Gliscor}}.

==Trivia==
* Drapion was designed by [[Kenkichi Toyama]].
*Both {{p|Skorupi}} and Drapion were planned for Generation III and were ultimately scrapped, much like {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}.

===Origin===
Drapion is based on a {{wp|scorpion}}, and has some characteristics that resemble a {{wp|Thelyphonida|vinegarroon}} (a similar arachnid). Its {{egg|Water 3}} Egg Group designation may be a reference to the ancient group of arthropods known as {{wp|Eurypterid|sea scorpions}} that used to inhabit the oceans and may have been the ancestors of modern scorpions.

====Name origin====
Drapion and Dorapion may be a combination of ''dragon'', ''drastic'' (referring to its violent nature), or ''Dracula'' (referring to its huge vampire-looking teeth) and ''{{wp|scorpion}}''.

'''Drapion''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドラピオン''' ''Dorapion'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Skorupi}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Drapion is a large, purple, scorpion-like Pokémon. Its eyes are a pointed shape, with blue-colored upper portions. Drapion has two small, pointed protrusions between its eyes, and one on the back on its head. Drapion also has protrusions on its jaws, two on the upper and three on the lower, with large, fang-like, white-colored features extending from its mouth. Its body is composed of many violet-to-lavender body segments which ends with a tail with two stingers. Drapion has four segmented legs with pointed toes. Its most distinguished feature is its huge claws. It can turn its head 180 degrees.

Drapion is a very aggressive Pokémon, attacking anything that enters its territory. It has a sturdy build and takes pride in its strength, being able to take down foes even without the use of its deadly toxin. It has enough power to easily scrap a car.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
Drapion's first appearance was in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]'', under [[J|Pokémon Hunter J]]'s ownership.

[[Paul]] has a Drapion which he used to battle Ash in ''[[DP186|Familiarity Breeds Strategy!]]'', ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]'' and ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]''. It managed to defeat {{AP|Buizel}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Torterra}} before losing to {{AP|Gliscor}}. It is unknown whether it is the same one he tried to capture in ''[[DP081|Chim - Charred!]]''.

A Drapion under the ownership of [[Celosia]] made its first apperence in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''.

In ''[[PS362|Dramatic Drapion & Crafty Kricketune I]]'', two {{tc|Scientist}}s working for [[Team Galactic]] fought {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} while guarding [[Lake Valor]].

==Trivia==
* Drapion was designed by [[Kenkichi Toyama]].
*Both {{p|Skorupi}} and Drapion were planned for Generation III and were ultimately scrapped, much like {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}

===Origin===
Drapion is based on a {{wp|scorpion}}, and has some characteristics that resemble a {{wp|Thelyphonida|vinegarroon}} (a similar arachnid). Its {{egg|Water 3}} Egg Group designation may be a reference to the ancient group of arthropods known as {{wp|Eurypterid|sea scorpions}} that used to inhabit the oceans and may have been the ancestors of modern scorpions.

====Name origin====
Drapion and Dorapion may be a combination of ''dragon'', ''drastic'' (referring to its violent nature), or ''Dracula'' (referring to its huge vampire-looking teeth) and ''{{wp|scorpion}}''.

Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta

2017-04-04T00:50:24Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* Cries */

{{move|Development leftovers of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire}}
{{incomplete|article|Add missing information, including from other sources such as the [http://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Ruby_and_Sapphire The Cutting Room Floor] wiki, and add references to such (preferably reliable) sources}}
Several things were originally going to be added to {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} during their development. Some were dropped or changed, and some of the dropped concepts of the prototypes can still be found in the internal data of the games.

==Pre-release==
===Pokémon===
There were numerous changes to Pokémon included in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. A prototype of {{p|Torchic}} was nearly identical to the final design, aside from the large floppy ears. There was another design that shows it inside an eggshell with lots of fluff on its neck. Another curious design depicted a creature with traits of both {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Blaziken}}, along with an unused {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Concept art of {{p|Treecko}} also showed numerous designs for the Pokémon before the final design was decided, mainly with less elongated head shapes and less round nose than the final design.

{{p|Groudon}} also had an earlier design where it had a different shape to its eyes, one more set of spikes on the torso and a spike less on the tail. One of the spikes on the neck was moved to the head on the final design and overall shapes were much less sharp. Head details became much more elongated, and the [[weather trio]] signature body markings were absent.

===Demo===
[[File:Sharpedo_no_ability.jpg|thumb|250px|Sharpedo's lack of ability. In the place where the ability description should be, it says "It doesn't have an ability."]]
A demo was available at the [[Pokémon Festa]] 2002 in Japan. There were prototypes of {{rt|104|Hoenn}} and the [[Pretty Petal Flower Shop]], which was "not yet open" according to the lady inside. There was also an unfinished version of the [[party]] screen, alongside a {{pkmn|battle}} system more thoroughly developed in comparison to what was seen in older screenshots. When the battle starts, it is not possible to see how many {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s have. Some moves, like {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Faint Attack}}, are depicted with different animations than those seen in the final release. It is also shown that {{p|Sharpedo}} has no [[Ability]] in the demo; it could mean that not all Pokémon could have Abilities. Given {{p|Sharpedo}}'s low level in the demo, it could also mean that {{p|Carvanha}} didn't exist at the time.
{{-}}
===Graphics===
In some early screenshots, the roofs of [[Poké Mart]]s are colored red instead of blue. The [[Stats#Hit Points|HP]] bar was also different from the final release. Some prototype sprites for several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} were also shown, including {{p|Shroomish}}, {{p|Duskull}}, {{p|Wailmer}}, {{p|Wynaut}}, and {{p|Sharpedo}}.

==Post-release==
===Pokémon===
In the May 2007 issue of ''[[Nintendo Power]]'', [[Junichi Masuda]] stated "There's also a sea-slug Pokémon that we weren't able to put in Ruby and Sapphire that we were able to put in this one, {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}", which likely suggests that {{p|Shellos}} and/or {{p|Gastrodon}} (existing sea-slug Pokémon) were planned for [[Generation III]] instead of [[Generation IV]].

Supporting this theory is the fact that [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl beta|internal data]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} reveals a back sprite for both Shellos and Gastrodon with a slightly different design, but no front sprite. Shellos's sprite is pink, like its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shellos and Gastrodon|West Sea variation}}, and seems to combine the West Sea variation's head with the {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shellos and Gastrodon|East Sea variation}}'s body, while Gastrodon's sprite is brown and looks like its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shellos and Gastrodon|West Sea variation}}, but with more rock-like protrusions on its body.
====Cries====
The leaked [[:#Debugging Version 0509A prototype|Debugging Version 0509A prototype]] of German Pokémon Ruby revealed a sound test menu allowing you to play two unused Pokémon cries in slots 266 and 269 on the Driver Test menu. These cries may have belonged to {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}, or {{p|Skorupi}} and {{p|Drapion}}. This sound test was later found in the final versions of Ruby and Sapphire, along with the same unused cries.

The cries of [[Generation III]] Pokémon are not stored in National Pokédex order or in index number order, instead going in a unique order from {{p|Kecleon}} to {{p|Chimecho}}, which like in the index number list, is located after all other Pokémon. This order remains in the final versions of the game, though normally unseen. Among the initial Generation III Pokémon cries in the audio data are the aforementioned Kecleon, {{p|Duskull}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Wynaut}} and {{p|Azurill}}, which were also among the first Generation III Pokémon to be [[History_of_Pokémon#Generation_III|revealed]].

===Battles===
{{pkmn2|Wild}} [[Double Battle]]s were planned for the [[Generation III]] games in addition to the Double Battles against {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. This mode is incomplete, however, since the game only generates data for one wild Pokémon and copies the data of that {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} for the second wild Pokémon.<ref>[http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=5471469&postcount=3 Development: Wild Pokémon Double Battles - The PokéCommunity Forums]</ref> It can be enabled by setting the battle mode flag to <code>0x0001</code>.

===Music===
Some remastered [[Generation II]] music is present in the internal data.
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Route 38'']]
* The background music used in the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] from {{game|Crystal}} after the [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]] is plugged in for the first time.
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Pewter City'']]
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Battle! (Suicune)'']]
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Radio Tower Occupied!'']]

All of these themes are remixed from {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and were likely made for testing the soundfont.

[[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Pokémon Contest!'']], which plays during the appeals round of {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contests}}, is programmed in as both its full version and as four minor tracks which are combined to play the full theme. These minor tracks are next to the normal music in the internal data, indicating that they were initially intended to be used, though with what purpose is unknown.

Another theme in the internal data is a variation of [[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Littleroot Town'']], which lacks the introduction and instead goes straight to the loop point.

{{youtubevid|yZ16idg4QRg|PocketMonstersMusic|Ruby|Sapphire}}
{{youtubevid|9LMf8gx631M|PocketMonstersMusic|Ruby|Sapphire}}

===Weather===
[[File:Three Snowflakes unused FRLG.png|thumb|The "three snowflakes falling" [[weather]] effect.]]
In the internal data, there is a [[weather]] effect for snowing that looks rather incomplete as it only has three snowflakes falling once, but seems like it was originally going to be used in the final release. A likely location for using this would be [[Mt. Chimney]], as it might have been originally planned to be a snowy mountain instead of a volcano. The only way of activating this weather effect is by modifying the weather header for a certain map in the {{wp|Read-only memory|ROM}}.
{{-}}

===Abilities===
An [[Ability]] known as {{a|Cacophony}} was found within the internal data. No {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} has it legitimately; a Pokémon can only have this Ability by modifying its data. It is identical to {{a|Soundproof}}, another {{wp|sound}}-based Ability, and it allows the Pokémon to avoid all sound-based [[move]]s. Since it is identical to Soundproof, it was likely scrapped due to redundancy, and some Pokémon that have Soundproof may have originally been intended to have Cacophony instead, such as {{p|Loudred}} and {{p|Exploud}}, which are well known for their {{wp|loudness}}.

A Pokémon that has been modified to have Cacophony will regain the normal Ability it should have according to its [[personality value]] if it is migrated to a [[Generation IV]] game. However, it has not been fully confirmed that the Ability is not present within the internal data of the Generation IV games.

===Trainers===
{{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}} contains some unused {{pkmn|Trainer}} data for [[Archie]], the leader of [[Team Aqua]]. According to the data, he was planned to be {{pkmn|battle}}d at some point where his team consists of a level 17 {{p|Huntail}} and a level 17 {{p|Sharpedo}}. He is also carrying two {{DL|Potion|Super Potion}}s. This may indicate that Archie was originally planned to be encountered earlier in the game and was intended to appear with a drastically different sort of team.

===Graphics===
An unused sprite for a member of Team Aqua exists in the internal data and is identical to that of male {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}}s with the exception of a mirrored body, modified coloration, the addition of a mustache, and a bandanna around the Grunt's left arm.

A prototype model of the sprite that is used for a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the {{player}} has not seen (yet) consists of two blocky, big and white question marks instead of the round and black one with a white circle and a white question mark.

There is also data for an unused tileset, which could have been intended for the [[Mossdeep City]] [[Mossdeep Gym|Gym]] or the [[Trick House]].

===Remnants of the demo===
The alternative versions of {{rt|104|Hoenn}} and the [[Pretty Petal Flower Shop]] still exist within the internal data of the final release, though the associated tileset data for the prototype of Route 104 has since been removed.

[[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Battle! (Wild Pokémon)'']], which was used for {{pkmn|Trainer}} {{pkmn|battle}}s in the demo, was used for [[wild Pokémon]] battles in the final release.

Unused dialogue strings, associated with the [[Pokémon Festa]] 2002 demo, still remain in the final release. The text remains untouched in the Japanese versions but has been translated in the localized releases.

A video of the demo can be watched here:
{{youtubevid|sXd_FG0MLSc|xdanielIDZD|Ruby|Sapphire}}

===Text===

====Pokémon AGB====
Certain text refers to "Pokémon AGB", which appears to be a short form for "Pokémon Advanced Game Boy", the once tentative title for {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. They are presumably from the initial stages of development.

Message 1:
{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|This is sample message 1.}}
{{sign|RS|}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the world of}}
{{sign|RS|POKéMON AGB!}}
{{sign|RS|We hope you enjoy this!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

Message 2:
{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|This is sample message 2.}}
{{sign|RS|}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the world of}}
{{sign|RS|POKéMON AGB!}}
{{sign|RS|We hope you enjoy this!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

Message 3:
{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|This is sample message 3.}}
{{sign|RS|}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the world of}}
{{sign|RS|POKéMON AGB!}}
{{sign|RS|We hope you enjoy this!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Cable Club text====
Unused copies of the first sentence of [[Cable Club]] welcoming the player to the Trade Center and Colosseum exist in the code. A third message welcomes the player to the [[Time Capsule]], which is a feature exclusive to [[Generation II]], the previous Pokémon generation; where players can trade a Pokémon from Generation II over to [[Generation I]] and vice versa.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the POKéMON CABLE CLUB
TRADE CENTER.}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the POKéMON CABLE CLUB
COLOSSEUM.}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the POKéMON CABLE CLUB
TIME CAPSULE.}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

No copy of text exists for welcoming the player to the Record Corner, which may imply that the [[record mixing]] feature was planned or implemented later in development.

====Placeholder move texts====
Placeholder battle texts for each type such as "Used a NORMAL move", "Used an ELECTRIC move" exist for when the player uses an (unused) move with the relevant type and an index number greater than the last valid move (0x162, Psycho Boost).

The texts include:

a NORMAL move
a FIGHTING move
a FLYING move
a POISON move
a GROUND move
a ROCK move
a BUG move
a GHOST move
a STEEL move
a ??? move
a FIRE move
a WATER move
a GRASS move
an ELECTRIC move
a PSYCHIC move
an ICE move
a DRAGON move
a DARK move

In the Japanese versions, the messages appear in the form of "(TYPE){{tt|わざ|technique}}" (わざ being the Japanese term for move), with the exception of the {{type|???}}'s message being "はてなわざ" (meaning "question move"). Due to an unknown bug that does not occur in the Japanese versions of {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, using a Fighting or Electric type move with index number greater than 0x162 results in "What should (PKMN) do" and the 'Fight/Bag/Pokémon/Run' boxes being temporarily shifted up when the move is used, with blank space taking up the area where they are supposed to be.

{{Youtubevid|2ZVuqYXZXf0|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

====Discount sale====
Unused text exists which seems to be for when a shop (possibly a [[Poké Mart]] or the [[Lilycove Department Store]]) is having a discount sale. Note that the Lilycove Department Store randomly holds a [[Lilycove_Department_Store#Rooftop_Sale|Rooftop Sale]] in the final games.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome!
We’re having a discount sale today!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

===="Closed today" text====
Unused text exists for an NPC (or more than one NPC) laughing, mumbling and telling the player that some place or some thing is closed.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|Fufufu...

Mumble, mumble...

Oh!

Closed today!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Pokémon choice text====
Unused text exists for choosing a Pokémon, possibly a [[starter Pokémon]]. In the final versions of {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, the text "Do you choose this POKéMON?" is used for picking a starter Pokémon.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|
You like the \v4-type POKéMON
\v2?

It contains a POKéMON!
}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Pseudo-Gym Leader====
Unused text exists for a test battle with a "pseudo-GYM LEADER", which may have been used for development or a trial demo.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|
We’re making preparations.

I’m a pseudo-GYM LEADER for
interviews.

Ready for a test battle.
}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Open question====
Unused text exists for an NPC who asks what he or she should do today.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|What should I do for fun today?}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Debug menu texts====
Leftover text strings remain from a debugging version of {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}}<ref>[http://forums.hidden-palace.org/viewtopic.php?t=2895 Pokémon Ruby Debug]</ref>, detailed below. Some of them are absent in the final release, though there are still references to some of these strings, such as <code>Init comm. data</code>, <code>Set highest score</code>, <code>Reset highest score</code> and <code>Set all art museum items</code>.


===Debugging Version 0509A prototype===
A German-language debugging version of {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}} was apparently sold by a [[Nintendo]] representative to the prototype collector who uses the pseudonym "drx", who later released the ROM to the public. The {{wp|Read-only memory|ROM}} has many debugging features, which can be accessed by scrolling through a section presumably relevant to who developed that aspect of the game. For example, choosing <code>WATANABE</code> attempts to [[save]] the game, although it turns out unsuccessful, and selecting <code>KAGAYA</code> allows the {{player}} to view his or her {{ga|Trainer Card}}, the opponent's Trainer Card or activate the [[slot machine]] interface.

The [[cry|cries]] of Pokémon with index numbers 252-276 are playable in the 'Driver Test' menu, labelled as 'Debugging Version 0509A'. Although these Pokémon normally correspond with [[? (glitch Pokémon)|?]], they have the cries of existing Pokémon exclusively to the Driver Test (with index number 266 and 269), suggesting that they may have once been real Pokémon. The cries, Driver Test and overall Sound Test menu are still present in the final version of all the Generation III GBA games, but are inaccessible under normal conditions.

A video of this debugging version is available here:
{{youtubevid|mzCwu1JiUbQ|Gligar13Vids|Ruby}}

The debugging functions are mostly documented [http://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Ruby_%28Debug_Version%29 here].

===Limitations===
[[Junichi Masuda]] stated on his blog that while developing {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, [[Game Freak]] considered changing the number of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the {{player}} can have and the number of [[move]]s a Pokémon can learn but that the idea was later scrapped.<ref>http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=28</ref> It is currently unknown what sort of potential changes were to be made, and as of [[Generation VII]], no changes like this have been made to the series.

{{move|Development leftovers of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire}}
{{incomplete|article|Add missing information, including from other sources such as the [http://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Ruby_and_Sapphire The Cutting Room Floor] wiki, and add references to such (preferably reliable) sources}}
Several things were originally going to be added to {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} during their development. Some were dropped or changed, and some of the dropped concepts of the prototypes can still be found in the internal data of the games.

==Pre-release==
===Pokémon===
There were numerous changes to Pokémon included in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. A prototype of {{p|Torchic}} was nearly identical to the final design, aside from the large floppy ears. There was another design that shows it inside an eggshell with lots of fluff on its neck. Another curious design depicted a creature with traits of both {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Blaziken}}, along with an unused {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Concept art of {{p|Treecko}} also showed numerous designs for the Pokémon before the final design was decided, mainly with less elongated head shapes and less round nose than the final design.

{{p|Groudon}} also had an earlier design where it had a different shape to its eyes, one more set of spikes on the torso and a spike less on the tail. One of the spikes on the neck was moved to the head on the final design and overall shapes were much less sharp. Head details became much more elongated, and the [[weather trio]] signature body markings were absent.

A demo was available at the [[Pokémon Festa]] 2002 in Japan. There were prototypes of {{rt|104|Hoenn}} and the [[Pretty Petal Flower Shop]], which was "not yet open" according to the lady inside. There was also an unfinished version of the [[party]] screen, alongside a {{pkmn|battle}} system more thoroughly developed in comparison to what was seen in older screenshots. When the battle starts, it is not possible to see how many {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s have. Some moves, like {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Faint Attack}}, are depicted with different animations than those seen in the final release. It is also shown that {{p|Sharpedo}} has no [[Ability]] in the demo; it could mean that not all Pokémon could have Abilities. Given {{p|Sharpedo}}'s low level in the demo, it could also mean that {{p|Carvanha}} didn't exist at the time.

===Graphics===
In some early screenshots, the roofs of [[Poké Mart]]s are colored red instead of blue. The [[Stats#Hit Points|HP]] bar was also different from the final release. Some prototype sprites for several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} were also shown, including {{p|Shroomish}}, {{p|Duskull}}, {{p|Wailmer}}, {{p|Wynaut}}, and {{p|Sharpedo}}.

==Post-release==
===Pokémon===
In the May 2007 issue of ''[[Nintendo Power]]'', [[Junichi Masuda]] stated "There's also a sea-slug Pokémon that we weren't able to put in Ruby and Sapphire that we were able to put in this one, {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}", which likely suggests that {{p|Shellos}} and/or {{p|Gastrodon}} (existing sea-slug Pokémon) were planned for [[Generation III]] instead of [[Generation IV]].

Supporting this theory is the fact that [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl beta|internal data]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} reveals a back sprite for both Shellos and Gastrodon with a slightly different design, but no front sprite. Shellos's sprite is pink, like its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shellos and Gastrodon|West Sea variation}}, and seems to combine the West Sea variation's head with the {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shellos and Gastrodon|East Sea variation}}'s body, while Gastrodon's sprite is brown and looks like its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shellos and Gastrodon|West Sea variation}}, but with more rock-like protrusions on its body.
====Cries====
The leaked [[:#Debugging Version 0509A prototype|Debugging Version 0509A prototype]] of German Pokémon Ruby revealed a sound test menu allowing you to play two unused Pokémon cries in slots 266 and 269 on the Driver Test menu. These cries may have belonged to {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}, or {{Skorupi}} and {{Drapion}}. This sound test was later found in the final versions of Ruby and Sapphire, along with the same unused cries.

The cries of [[Generation III]] Pokémon are not stored in National Pokédex order or in index number order, instead going in a unique order from {{p|Kecleon}} to {{p|Chimecho}}, which like in the index number list, is located after all other Pokémon. This order remains in the final versions of the game, though normally unseen. Among the initial Generation III Pokémon cries in the audio data are the aforementioned Kecleon, {{p|Duskull}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Wynaut}} and {{p|Azurill}}, which were also among the first Generation III Pokémon to be [[History_of_Pokémon#Generation_III|revealed]].

===Battles===
{{pkmn2|Wild}} [[Double Battle]]s were planned for the [[Generation III]] games in addition to the Double Battles against {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. This mode is incomplete, however, since the game only generates data for one wild Pokémon and copies the data of that {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} for the second wild Pokémon.<ref>[http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=5471469&postcount=3 Development: Wild Pokémon Double Battles - The PokéCommunity Forums]</ref> It can be enabled by setting the battle mode flag to <code>0x0001</code>.

===Music===
Some remastered [[Generation II]] music is present in the internal data.
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Route 38'']]
* The background music used in the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] from {{game|Crystal}} after the [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]] is plugged in for the first time.
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Pewter City'']]
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Battle! (Suicune)'']]
* [[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|''Radio Tower Occupied!'']]

All of these themes are remixed from {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and were likely made for testing the soundfont.

[[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Pokémon Contest!'']], which plays during the appeals round of {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contests}}, is programmed in as both its full version and as four minor tracks which are combined to play the full theme. These minor tracks are next to the normal music in the internal data, indicating that they were initially intended to be used, though with what purpose is unknown.

Another theme in the internal data is a variation of [[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Littleroot Town'']], which lacks the introduction and instead goes straight to the loop point.

{{youtubevid|yZ16idg4QRg|PocketMonstersMusic|Ruby|Sapphire}}
{{youtubevid|9LMf8gx631M|PocketMonstersMusic|Ruby|Sapphire}}

===Weather===
[[File:Three Snowflakes unused FRLG.png|thumb|The "three snowflakes falling" [[weather]] effect.]]
In the internal data, there is a [[weather]] effect for snowing that looks rather incomplete as it only has three snowflakes falling once, but seems like it was originally going to be used in the final release. A likely location for using this would be [[Mt. Chimney]], as it might have been originally planned to be a snowy mountain instead of a volcano. The only way of activating this weather effect is by modifying the weather header for a certain map in the {{wp|Read-only memory|ROM}}.
{{-}}

===Abilities===
An [[Ability]] known as {{a|Cacophony}} was found within the internal data. No {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} has it legitimately; a Pokémon can only have this Ability by modifying its data. It is identical to {{a|Soundproof}}, another {{wp|sound}}-based Ability, and it allows the Pokémon to avoid all sound-based [[move]]s. Since it is identical to Soundproof, it was likely scrapped due to redundancy, and some Pokémon that have Soundproof may have originally been intended to have Cacophony instead, such as {{p|Loudred}} and {{p|Exploud}}, which are well known for their {{wp|loudness}}.

A Pokémon that has been modified to have Cacophony will regain the normal Ability it should have according to its [[personality value]] if it is migrated to a [[Generation IV]] game. However, it has not been fully confirmed that the Ability is not present within the internal data of the Generation IV games.

===Trainers===
{{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}} contains some unused {{pkmn|Trainer}} data for [[Archie]], the leader of [[Team Aqua]]. According to the data, he was planned to be {{pkmn|battle}}d at some point where his team consists of a level 17 {{p|Huntail}} and a level 17 {{p|Sharpedo}}. He is also carrying two {{DL|Potion|Super Potion}}s. This may indicate that Archie was originally planned to be encountered earlier in the game and was intended to appear with a drastically different sort of team.

===Graphics===
An unused sprite for a member of Team Aqua exists in the internal data and is identical to that of male {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}}s with the exception of a mirrored body, modified coloration, the addition of a mustache, and a bandanna around the Grunt's left arm.

A prototype model of the sprite that is used for a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the {{player}} has not seen (yet) consists of two blocky, big and white question marks instead of the round and black one with a white circle and a white question mark.

There is also data for an unused tileset, which could have been intended for the [[Mossdeep City]] [[Mossdeep Gym|Gym]] or the [[Trick House]].

</gallery>

===Remnants of the demo===
The alternative versions of {{rt|104|Hoenn}} and the [[Pretty Petal Flower Shop]] still exist within the internal data of the final release, though the associated tileset data for the prototype of Route 104 has since been removed.

[[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Battle! (Wild Pokémon)'']], which was used for {{pkmn|Trainer}} {{pkmn|battle}}s in the demo, was used for [[wild Pokémon]] battles in the final release.

Unused dialogue strings, associated with the [[Pokémon Festa]] 2002 demo, still remain in the final release. The text remains untouched in the Japanese versions but has been translated in the localized releases.

A video of the demo can be watched here:
{{youtubevid|sXd_FG0MLSc|xdanielIDZD|Ruby|Sapphire}}

===Text===

====Pokémon AGB====
Certain text refers to "Pokémon AGB", which appears to be a short form for "Pokémon Advanced Game Boy", the once tentative title for {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. They are presumably from the initial stages of development.

Message 1:
{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|This is sample message 1.}}
{{sign|RS|}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the world of}}
{{sign|RS|POKéMON AGB!}}
{{sign|RS|We hope you enjoy this!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

Message 2:
{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|This is sample message 2.}}
{{sign|RS|}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the world of}}
{{sign|RS|POKéMON AGB!}}
{{sign|RS|We hope you enjoy this!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

Message 3:
{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|This is sample message 3.}}
{{sign|RS|}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the world of}}
{{sign|RS|POKéMON AGB!}}
{{sign|RS|We hope you enjoy this!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Cable Club text====
Unused copies of the first sentence of [[Cable Club]] welcoming the player to the Trade Center and Colosseum exist in the code. A third message welcomes the player to the [[Time Capsule]], which is a feature exclusive to [[Generation II]], the previous Pokémon generation; where players can trade a Pokémon from Generation II over to [[Generation I]] and vice versa.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the POKéMON CABLE CLUB
TRADE CENTER.}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the POKéMON CABLE CLUB
COLOSSEUM.}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome to the POKéMON CABLE CLUB
TIME CAPSULE.}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

No copy of text exists for welcoming the player to the Record Corner, which may imply that the [[record mixing]] feature was planned or implemented later in development.

====Placeholder move texts====
Placeholder battle texts for each type such as "Used a NORMAL move", "Used an ELECTRIC move" exist for when the player uses an (unused) move with the relevant type and an index number greater than the last valid move (0x162, Psycho Boost).

The texts include:

a NORMAL move
a FIGHTING move
a FLYING move
a POISON move
a GROUND move
a ROCK move
a BUG move
a GHOST move
a STEEL move
a ??? move
a FIRE move
a WATER move
a GRASS move
an ELECTRIC move
a PSYCHIC move
an ICE move
a DRAGON move
a DARK move

In the Japanese versions, the messages appear in the form of "(TYPE){{tt|わざ|technique}}" (わざ being the Japanese term for move), with the exception of the {{type|???}}'s message being "はてなわざ" (meaning "question move"). Due to an unknown bug that does not occur in the Japanese versions of {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, using a Fighting or Electric type move with index number greater than 0x162 results in "What should (PKMN) do" and the 'Fight/Bag/Pokémon/Run' boxes being temporarily shifted up when the move is used, with blank space taking up the area where they are supposed to be.

{{Youtubevid|2ZVuqYXZXf0|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

====Discount sale====
Unused text exists which seems to be for when a shop (possibly a [[Poké Mart]] or the [[Lilycove Department Store]]) is having a discount sale. Note that the Lilycove Department Store randomly holds a [[Lilycove_Department_Store#Rooftop_Sale|Rooftop Sale]] in the final games.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|Welcome!
We’re having a discount sale today!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

===="Closed today" text====
Unused text exists for an NPC (or more than one NPC) laughing, mumbling and telling the player that some place or some thing is closed.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|Fufufu...

Mumble, mumble...

Oh!

Closed today!}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Pokémon choice text====
Unused text exists for choosing a Pokémon, possibly a [[starter Pokémon]]. In the final versions of {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, the text "Do you choose this POKéMON?" is used for picking a starter Pokémon.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|
You like the \v4-type POKéMON
\v2?

It contains a POKéMON!
}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Pseudo-Gym Leader====
Unused text exists for a test battle with a "pseudo-GYM LEADER", which may have been used for development or a trial demo.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|
We’re making preparations.

I’m a pseudo-GYM LEADER for
interviews.

Ready for a test battle.
}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Open question====
Unused text exists for an NPC who asks what he or she should do today.

{{sign|RS|header}}
{{sign|RS|What should I do for fun today?}}
{{sign|RS|footer}}

====Debug menu texts====
Leftover text strings remain from a debugging version of {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}}<ref>[http://forums.hidden-palace.org/viewtopic.php?t=2895 Pokémon Ruby Debug]</ref>, detailed below. Some of them are absent in the final release, though there are still references to some of these strings, such as <code>Init comm. data</code>, <code>Set highest score</code>, <code>Reset highest score</code> and <code>Set all art museum items</code>.


===Debugging Version 0509A prototype===
A German-language debugging version of {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}} was apparently sold by a [[Nintendo]] representative to the prototype collector who uses the pseudonym "drx", who later released the ROM to the public. The {{wp|Read-only memory|ROM}} has many debugging features, which can be accessed by scrolling through a section presumably relevant to who developed that aspect of the game. For example, choosing <code>WATANABE</code> attempts to [[save]] the game, although it turns out unsuccessful, and selecting <code>KAGAYA</code> allows the {{player}} to view his or her {{ga|Trainer Card}}, the opponent's Trainer Card or activate the [[slot machine]] interface.

The [[cry|cries]] of Pokémon with index numbers 252-276 are playable in the 'Driver Test' menu, labelled as 'Debugging Version 0509A'. Although these Pokémon normally correspond with [[? (glitch Pokémon)|?]], they have the cries of existing Pokémon exclusively to the Driver Test (with index number 266 and 269), suggesting that they may have once been real Pokémon. The cries, Driver Test and overall Sound Test menu are still present in the final version of all the Generation III GBA games, but are inaccessible under normal conditions.

A video of this debugging version is available here:
{{youtubevid|mzCwu1JiUbQ|Gligar13Vids|Ruby}}

The debugging functions are mostly documented [http://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Ruby_%28Debug_Version%29 here].

===Limitations===
[[Junichi Masuda]] stated on his blog that while developing {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, [[Game Freak]] considered changing the number of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the {{player}} can have and the number of [[move]]s a Pokémon can learn but that the idea was later scrapped.<ref>http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=28</ref> It is currently unknown what sort of potential changes were to be made, and as of [[Generation VII]], no changes like this have been made to the series.

'''Drapion''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドラピオン''' ''Dorapion'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Skorupi}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Drapion is a large, purple, scorpion-like Pokémon. Its eyes are a pointed shape, with blue-colored upper portions. Drapion has two small, pointed protrusions between its eyes, and one on the back on its head. Drapion also has protrusions on its jaws, two on the upper and three on the lower, with large, fang-like, white-colored features extending from its mouth. Its body is composed of many violet-to-lavender body segments which ends with a tail with two stingers. Drapion has four segmented legs with pointed toes. Its most distinguished feature is its huge claws. It can turn its head 180 degrees.

Drapion is a very aggressive Pokémon, attacking anything that enters its territory. It has a sturdy build and takes pride in its strength, being able to take down foes even without the use of its deadly toxin. It has enough power to easily scrap a car.

==Trivia==
* Drapion was designed by [[Kenkichi Toyama]].
*Both {{Skorupi}} and Drapion were planned for {{Generation III}} and were ultimately scrapped. There are two unused Pokemon cries left over on the data, one is short and possibly unfinished and the other is slightly longer and sounds mostly finished.

===Origin===
Drapion is based on a {{wp|scorpion}}, and has some characteristics that resemble a {{wp|Thelyphonida|vinegarroon}} (a similar arachnid).

Celebi Egg glitch

2017-04-03T07:44:24Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* Requirement */

{{cleanup}}
The '''Celebi Egg glitch''' is a glitch to obtain {{p|Celebi}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. As {{p|Celebi}} is an [[Event Pokémon]] and therefore impossible to obtain via standard gameplay, this glitch allows players to fully complete their Pokédex in the Generation II games without having to use [[cheating]] devices.

==Discovery==
This glitch was first documented at [[Glitch City Laboratories]] by user Paco81. It was initially known only as the "Celebi glitch" or "Celebi trick" due to not involving an {{pkmn|Egg}}. However, the Celebi obtained through that glitch would have a nickname and [[Original Trainer]] composed of glitch characters and would be stuck at [[level]] 100. A variation that allows the Celebi to be hatched from an Egg and therefore largely behave normally in terms of game mechanics was discovered shortly thereafter.

==Method==
This is only one known method of carrying out the Celebi Egg glitch and successfully obtaining Celebi.

===Requirement===
* '''An Egg''' - The {{player}} must get an {{pkmn|Egg}} that will know {{m|Beat Up}} as its third move upon hatching. This can be done by training a male and a female {{p|Sneasel}} up to [[level]] 57. Both Sneasel need to have the same four moves in the same order, with Beat Up at position three. Because both parents have the same moveset, the offspring will share this moveset.

* '''A bad clone''' - The player must get a ''bad clone'', a clone with a name made of only question marks (or, in some cases, blank), its level will be 0 (The glitch will not work if the clone is at any other level, including a more common level 255 clone) and its gender will be different than the prototype's. If that Pokémon doesn't fulfill all those requirements, then it isn't the right "bad clone" and it cannot be used for the glitch. This can be done by [[Cloning glitches|Pokémon cloning]]. The Box that is used for cloning must not be totally filled up at any time (otherwise the Box is unable to produce bad clones). Getting a bad clone is a case of luck and occurs sometimes during the act of cloning. The chance of getting a bad clone is at maximum if the Box has 15 to 18 Pokémon. Another way to increase the player's chances is by turning the game off after he/she selects YES, before any of the "SAVING... DON'T TURN OFF THE POWER." text appears.

* '''Any five Pokémon''' - The player must get any five Pokémon (preferably weak, common or otherwise useless Pokémon). The easiest way to get them is to clone a Pokémon until there is a bad clone. Because getting a bad clone takes some tries, he or she will get five unimportant Pokémon as a positive side effect of the bad clone action.

===Procedure===
* '''Step 1''' - The player must first deposit the Egg into a Box. The five other Pokémon and the bad clone have to be in the party.

* '''Step 2''' - The player must then go to the {{pkmn|Day Care}} and ask the man to raise the bad clone. He or she should then take it back from him, and it will be a [[Five question marks|?????]].

* '''Step 3''' - Next, the player must put [[Five question marks|?????]] at the top of his or her party and go to the PC.

* '''Step 4''' - Using the "Move Pokémon without mail" option, the player must move any Pokémon (preferably weak or common Pokémon) from a PC Box to the top of their party. Its name should become the name of its [[original Trainer]]. The player will now have 7 Pokémon in his or her party.

* '''Step 5''' - Next, the player must go back to the Day-Care Man and ask him to raise the [[Five question marks|?????]]. Afterward, he or she should return to the PC.

* '''Step 6''' - Back at the PC, the player must deposit the first and second party Pokémon.

* '''Step 7''' - Using the "Move Pokémon without mail" option, the player must move the Egg from its PC Box to the top of his or her party.

* '''Step 8''' - Next, the player needs to deposit the next four party Pokémon, but not the Egg.

* '''Step 9''' - Subsequently, the player should withdraw any Pokémon that he or she didn't use for the glitch.

* '''Step 10''' - Having completed the set up, the player should walk or bike around until the Egg hatches into a {{p|Celebi}}. However, the Celebi is still unplayable.

* '''Step 11'''- The Celebi will hatch at level 0. Due to how the game handles Pokémon that level up in battle, the player must allow the Day-Care Couple to raise the Celebi to at least level 2. After this, it works like any normal Celebi.

{{YouTubeVid|ukqtK0l6bu0|channel/UCB9TJe0f5_fKHeJq-i_jI6w|name=Parfehchan|psychic|grass}}

==Explanation==
The reason that the aquired Pokémon is Celebi is due to the move {{m|Beat Up}}. In [[Generation II]], both Celebi and Beat Up share the same [[index number]]: 251. This is not random and should work with any other move-Pokémon combination. {{m|Psychic}}, whose index number is 94, should result in a {{p|Gengar}} hatching, while {{m|Splash}}, despite being considered the worst move, would ironically bring a {{p|Mewtwo}}, as both share index number 150. This glitch, therefore, should not cause any glitch Pokémon to appear, as there were exactly 251 moves in Generation II, though {{p|Ledyba}} would not be obtainable in this way without using a second potential glitch, as {{m|Struggle}} is unobtainable normally as a move.

==?????==
If the Pokémon used for breeding has no third attack, the Pokémon that will come out from the Egg (after the glitch) will be a "bad clone" of the [[glitch Pokémon]] #000 [[Five question marks|?????]]. This Pokémon, like other "bad clones" cannot be seen by the [[Pokémon Storage System|PC]], and hence cannot be deposited in the player's PC or released. There are only 3 known ways to release a "bad clone". One way is to trade it to a [[Generation I]] game. Upon arrival, it will become a Generation I original or glitch Pokémon, which may be released normally. The other is to use the PC in the lab on {{pkmn|Stadium 2}} where the "bad clones" will show up as {{p|Ditto}} or, sometimes, another Pokémon, allowing the player to release it. Recently, a third way has been discovered that doesn't require trading or Stadium 2. The player has to take both the bad clone(s) of [[Five question marks|????? (255)]] and at least one normal, unglitched Pokémon to the [[Bug Catching Contest]] on Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday. The unglitched Pokémon should be in first position in the player's party. When entering the contest, the player will be asked to use the first Pokémon in their party and leave the others (i.e. the bad clone(s)) with the contest helper. After the contest has ended the bad clone(s) will be gone, together with Pokémon behind it, even though the contest helper still mentions giving the player their remaining Pokémon back.

If a wild {{p|Ditto}} transforms into the hatched [[Five question marks|?????]], the wild Ditto is no longer catchable by any kind of [[Poké Ball]]. Even a Master Ball will fail to capture it. If a Ditto is bred with the "bad clone" of ?????, the offspring will be another "bad clone", knowing only {{m|Transform}}.

The "bad clone" of ????? may evolve to a {{p|Nidoran♂}}. Possible levels for evolution are 37 and 62.

At Step 5 of the glitch the player asks a Day-Care person to raise the Bad Clone of ????? (000). That clone will not be taken back until the glitch is finished. After the glitch is finished, that clone will disappear from the Day Care, but on rare occasions, it is possible for that Pokémon to not disappear and remain at the Day Care. In that case the Bad Clone of ????? (000) will be transformed into a Bad Clone of ????? (255). That Bad Clone of ????? (255), similarly to the Bad Clone of ????? (000), cannot be released by the PC, but can still be traded to a Generation I game and released there. It mostly works the same way as the Bad Clone of ????? (000), but it has some differences with it, as it cannot evolve into a {{p|Nidoran♂}}, and if a wild {{p|Ditto}} transforms into the hatched [[Five question marks|????? (255)]], the wild Ditto can be caught normally. Also it learns {{m|Ice Punch}} at LV17 and {{m|Egg Bomb}} at LV44 and it can learn different TMs and HMs from the Bad Clone of ????? (000), for example the Bad Clone of ????? (000) can learn {{m|DynamicPunch}} (TM01) which the Bad Clone of ????? (255) cannot.

Since ????? (000) cannot be seen by the [[Pokémon Storage System|PC]], it cannot be [[Cloning glitch|clone]]d; an Egg that will hatch into it, however, is visible and therefore can be cloned.

==Hatched Pokémon's held item==
The hatched Pokémon will hold an item depending to the fourth attack of the Pokémon used for the breeding. Both the item and the fourth attack share the same [[index number]]. For example, if the two Pokémon used for the breeding have the move {{m|Reflect}} as their fourth move, the hatched Pokémon will hold a [[GS Ball]] (or [[Teru-sama]] in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}). This is because both the [[GS Ball]] and {{m|Reflect}} have the same [[index number]]: 115. If the Pokémon used for the breeding have the move {{m|Whirlpool}} as their fourth attack or {{m|Beat Up}}, the hatched Pokémon will hold the glitch items HM08 or HM09 respectively. Neither of these [[HM]]s can be obtained in normal gameplay: they are filler items, and have no corresponding moves. If the Pokémon used for the breeding have no fourth attack, the hatched Pokémon will hold nothing.

==Other effects==
Some of the Pokémon that are deposited in step 6 and step 8 may have their names, gender, level, or attacks changed. Some of them may become "bad clones" and some may remain normal Pokémon. Some of them may also have [[Pokérus]].

When done incorrectly, the Celebi Egg glitch may also result in a lot of code read errors and Pokémon/character data becoming scrambled. Players may end up with numerous bad clones. Going to the <sc>Pokémon</sc> screen and looking at the move option will bring up all Pokémon in your party, as usual. However, selecting a Pokémon and going to the <sc>Move</sc> option will reveal that a ????? is hiding at least 50-80 glitch Pokémon. All of these glitch Pokémon represent the game's code and cause multiple bugs. Therefore, by switching their moves, the game's data, such as music and Pokédex entries, can be altered. The names of these Pokémon vary from ? to random characters and their levels range from 0 to 255. The player's name will also change to a random glitch name. Similarly, the player's ID number will change. The player's original name might be given to Pokémon with many ? in its name, or the names of old player files and Pokémon, and is usually tossed around with junk data (example: ???????GOLD?).

The moves of the glitch Pokémon take data from other parts of the game code. As a result, they usually turn into jargon (example: TYPE/ A9_9[9990979599999999DBB999? ×4 or Waterfall, Waterfall Waterfall, Waterfall or Pay Day, Horn Attack, SonicBoom, Mud-Slap) or just {{m|-}}, and the move's PP will become more than possible or corrupt (ex.: 56/15, 1/35, 86/1). By switching moves around, it is possible to change any data in the game. Since the hidden list of Pokémon is occupying so much space, the game won't be able to load sprite data and the player won't be able to move. While changing moves around, it is easy to access the [[glitch dimension]], or even delete all of the player's {{tt|Pokémon|however, this causes the game to crash}}.

This effect of the Celebi Egg glitch is very similar to the [[TMTRAINER effect]] in [[Generation I]].

Old man glitch

2017-04-03T06:09:25Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* Effects */

The '''old man glitch''' is a well-known [[glitch]] in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, and an extension of the [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]. It is one of the methods by which the [[player character|player]] can encounter [[MissingNo.]] and [['M (00)]], and almost certainly the most famous method. Its name comes from the {{ka|old man}} in [[Viridian City]], who is required to begin the glitch. It should not be confused with the related [[item duplication glitch]], which is most easily performed by first performing the old man glitch.

This glitch was not present in the Japanese [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], or {{game|Blue|_(Japanese)}}. This glitch was fixed in the Spanish and Italian versions of Pokémon Red and Blue by making the shore tiles act as [[water tile]]s, but still remains in the German and French versions of Pokémon Red and Blue; however, in the French version, the game freezes upon encountering a [[MissingNo.]] or [['M (00)]]. This glitch was removed in all versions of {{game|Yellow}} by blanking the data for wild Pokémon before overwriting it, and reprogramming shore tiles to not call any [[wild Pokémon]].

==Performing the glitch==
The glitch is a special case of the [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]. To perform the glitch, the player must talk to the old man located in the north of [[Viridian City]] and allow him to demonstrate how to catch a Pokémon. After the demonstration, the player should immediately {{m|Fly}} to [[Cinnabar Island]]. Here, the player should surf up and down along the east coast of the island where the water is touching the land without leaving Cinnabar Island. [[Wild Pokémon]] will appear, based on the player's name.

{{youtubevid|deqhvSJqTQY|Old_Stigma|glitch}}

==Effects==
The wild Pokémon that appear are based on the player's name and the hex values of the characters in it. The third, fifth and seventh slots of the player's name are the species of Pokémon that will appear (see table below). The second slot of the player's name becomes the level of the Pokémon caused to appear by the third slot, the fourth slot for the fifth slot, and the sixth slot for the seventh slot. The game also reads the ninth and eleventh slots as wild Pokémon and the eighth and tenth slots as levels; however, due to the seven character name limit, these slots cannot be changed, thus the eighth slot appears as two values (50 and 00 = Level 80 and 0 (Byte 50 tells the game that a string ends early)) and the ninth appears blank (00 = [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/%27M_(00) 'M]).

At the end of the player's name, there is a special character to mark the end of the name. This character can either cause MissingNo. to appear, or create the possibility for wild 'M (00) to be at level 80.

The eighth through eleventh bytes are only 00 if using a custom name; using a [[#Preset names|preset name]] results in these extra bytes being filled by the series of other preset name separated by end of name markers (with NEW NAME after the last preset name). As such, 'M (00) will not appear when using a preset name.

==Results==
===Custom name===
This table demonstrates what Pokémon specific characters in the player's name will cause to appear, or the level of the Pokémon that they will cause to appear. Only characters possible to include in the player's name are included. [[Glitch Trainer]]s are in '''bold'''.

===Preset names===
Choosing a preset name will result in different results to inputting a custom name. Inputting a custom name which is the same as a preset name will not cause the glitch to behave as if a preset name was chosen.

Preset names function differently because they are stored one after the other in the game data, separated by the end of name marker, whereas custom names are succeeded by zeros after the end of name marker. In English Pokémon Red, the player's name is stored as "RED<end>ASH<end>JACK<end>NEW NAME", starting from the selected name; in English Pokémon Blue, the player's name is stored as "BLUE<end>GARY<end>JOHN<end>NEW NAME", likewise starting from the selected name.

Due to the names extending past the usual seven character limit, the ninth and eleventh characters are also used to determine the wild Pokémon, and their levels are determined by the eighth and tenth characters, respectively. These characters are usually null, so cause [['M (00)]] to appear, and Pokémon to appear at level 0, respectively. Because of this, unlike when inputting a custom name, [['M (00)]] do not appear when using a preset name. Characters after the eleventh are ignored.

==Cause==
When the game sets up the battle between the {{ka|old man}} and a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Weedle}}, it needs to temporarily change the player's name to "OLD MAN" so that it will display that name, rather than the player's entered name, during the battle.

The programmers decided to use the space where data for [[wild Pokémon]] found in the grass is stored (which is completely blank in Viridian City, as only {{m|Surf}}ing and [[Fishing]] data is used) to save the player's name temporarily. Normally, this would cause no abnormal activity, as this data is overwritten when the player moves to a different area.

In all cities, however, this data remains blank, and so the data is never overwritten (as there is nothing new to overwrite it with), and thus, the data that was last entered (be it the player's name or the wild Pokémon data from another area) remains in place. This itself still causes no harm; however, an oversight in the programming of the tiles used to denote the shore of [[Cinnabar Island]] marks them as equivalent to grass. As all [[water route]]s have no real grass on them, likewise, the data is not overwritten, and so whatever data is in the slots for wild Pokémon found in the grass is used, be it the player's name or wild Pokémon found elsewhere, such as the {{safari|Kanto}}.

The name of the player has six hexadecimal values in it. The game needs only three "slots" of wild Pokémon data to store this.

The species of wild Pokémon the player encounters along the coast are determined by the third, fifth, and seventh characters of the player's name, while their levels are determined by the second, fourth, and sixth characters, respectively. The game also reads the ninth and eleventh slots as wild Pokémon and the eighth and tenth slots as their respective levels; however, due to the seven character name limit, these slots are not used unless using a preset name, so are blank (00), causing [['M (00)]] to appear at level 0.

==Other coast related exploits==
:''See also: [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]'' 

[[File:Negative HP Stadium.png|thumb|right|256px|A {{p|Golbat}} affected by the glitch in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}]]
Because [[Cinnabar Island]] has no wild Pokémon data but the potential for wild Pokémon to appear, and that wild Pokémon data is not formatted when entering a new area, any location that can be {{m|Fly|flown}} from can have its wild Pokémon available on the coast.

This includes the {{safari|Kanto}}, so players can encounter Safari Pokémon under normal battling circumstances. Since the old man only writes to the first eleven wild Pokémon addresses, it means that extra Pokémon may be accessible even if the player's name is eleven characters long (which is possible with preset names). This grass Pokémon data is mapped to three 'uncommon encounters' and two 'rare encounters'.

Due to being able to find Pokémon over level 100, it is possible to trigger glitches relating to Pokémon with levels that are too high. If Pokémon over level 100 receives experience by battle, it will automatically go to level 100; Rare Candies will level up the Pokémon normally. If the Pokémon's remaining HP is already low, dropping to level 100 can cause the HP to drop to negative number, but it will be interpreted as a very high number, similarly to the [[Pomeg glitch]]. In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, HP is shown as the actual amount; in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], it will act as if its HP was full.

Reportedly, the first coast exploit discovered involved performing an in-game trade with an NPC and surfing on the coast.<ref>[http://www.gamefaqs.com/gameboy/367023-pokemon-red-version/faqs/38434 Okk's MissingNo. guide]</ref> This results in five level 80 hex:50 MissingNo. because the encounters are affected by the trade Pokémon's [[Original Trainer|OT]] name. Specifically, grass data is overwritten with "5D 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50". The 5D byte is a control character that prints "TRAINER" and the rest of the bytes are 'end name' characters.

Trading or fighting in the [[Cable Club]] overwrites the wild Pokémon data with the opponent's name, and by using the poison method of the [[Cable Club escape glitch]] one may escape from the Cable Club and keep the stored grass Pokémon data that normally disappears after resetting the game (even after trading). Note that battling heals the user's Pokémon, meaning that the player has to do this glitch by bringing up the trade screen.

This Cable Club coast exploit has an unexplained complication of affecting encounters further than uncommon Pokémon 1 (D891); for example, glitch Trainer FD can appear on the coast through this method.

Old man glitch

2017-04-03T06:07:19Z

DasRagnerokGPR: /* Effects */

The '''old man glitch''' is a well-known [[glitch]] in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, and an extension of the [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]. It is one of the methods by which the [[player character|player]] can encounter [[MissingNo.]] and [['M (00)]], and almost certainly the most famous method. Its name comes from the {{ka|old man}} in [[Viridian City]], who is required to begin the glitch. It should not be confused with the related [[item duplication glitch]], which is most easily performed by first performing the old man glitch.

This glitch was not present in the Japanese [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], or {{game|Blue|_(Japanese)}}. This glitch was fixed in the Spanish and Italian versions of Pokémon Red and Blue by making the shore tiles act as [[water tile]]s, but still remains in the German and French versions of Pokémon Red and Blue; however, in the French version, the game freezes upon encountering a [[MissingNo.]] or [['M (00)]]. This glitch was removed in all versions of {{game|Yellow}} by blanking the data for wild Pokémon before overwriting it, and reprogramming shore tiles to not call any [[wild Pokémon]].

==Performing the glitch==
The glitch is a special case of the [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]. To perform the glitch, the player must talk to the old man located in the north of [[Viridian City]] and allow him to demonstrate how to catch a Pokémon. After the demonstration, the player should immediately {{m|Fly}} to [[Cinnabar Island]]. Here, the player should surf up and down along the east coast of the island where the water is touching the land without leaving Cinnabar Island. [[Wild Pokémon]] will appear, based on the player's name.

{{youtubevid|deqhvSJqTQY|Old_Stigma|glitch}}

==Effects==
The wild Pokémon that appear are based on the player's name and the hex values of the characters in it. The third, fifth and seventh slots of the player's name are the species of Pokémon that will appear (see table below). The second slot of the player's name becomes the level of the Pokémon caused to appear by the third slot, the fourth slot for the fifth slot, and the sixth slot for the seventh slot. The game also reads the ninth and eleventh slots as wild Pokémon and the eighth and tenth slots as levels; however, due to the seven character name limit, these slots cannot be changed, thus the eighth slot appears as two values, one of which tells the game that the string ends prematurely, (50 and 00 = Level 80 and 0) and the ninth appears blank (00 = [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/%27M_(00) 'M]).

At the end of the player's name, there is a special character to mark the end of the name. This character can either cause MissingNo. to appear, or create the possibility for wild 'M (00) to be at level 80.

The eighth through eleventh bytes are only 00 if using a custom name; using a [[#Preset names|preset name]] results in these extra bytes being filled by the series of other preset name separated by end of name markers (with NEW NAME after the last preset name). As such, 'M (00) will not appear when using a preset name.

==Results==
===Custom name===
This table demonstrates what Pokémon specific characters in the player's name will cause to appear, or the level of the Pokémon that they will cause to appear. Only characters possible to include in the player's name are included. [[Glitch Trainer]]s are in '''bold'''.

===Preset names===
Choosing a preset name will result in different results to inputting a custom name. Inputting a custom name which is the same as a preset name will not cause the glitch to behave as if a preset name was chosen.

Preset names function differently because they are stored one after the other in the game data, separated by the end of name marker, whereas custom names are succeeded by zeros after the end of name marker. In English Pokémon Red, the player's name is stored as "RED<end>ASH<end>JACK<end>NEW NAME", starting from the selected name; in English Pokémon Blue, the player's name is stored as "BLUE<end>GARY<end>JOHN<end>NEW NAME", likewise starting from the selected name.

Due to the names extending past the usual seven character limit, the ninth and eleventh characters are also used to determine the wild Pokémon, and their levels are determined by the eighth and tenth characters, respectively. These characters are usually null, so cause [['M (00)]] to appear, and Pokémon to appear at level 0, respectively. Because of this, unlike when inputting a custom name, [['M (00)]] do not appear when using a preset name. Characters after the eleventh are ignored.

This glitch was fixed in the Spanish and Italian versions of Pokémon Red and Blue by making the shore tiles act as [[water tile]]s, but still remains in the German and French versions of Pokémon Red and Blue; however, in the French version, the game freezes upon encountering a [[MissingNo.]] or [['M (00)]]. This glitch was removed in all versions of {{game|Yellow}} by blanking the data for wild Pokémon before overwriting it, and reprogramming shore tiles to not call any [[wild Pokémon]].

==Performing the glitch==
The glitch is a special case of the [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]. To perform the glitch, the player must talk to the old man located in the north of [[Viridian City]] and allow him to demonstrate how to catch a Pokémon. After the demonstration, the player should immediately {{m|Fly}} to [[Cinnabar Island]]. Here, the player should surf up and down along the east coast of the island where the water is touching the land without leaving Cinnabar Island. [[Wild Pokémon]] will appear, based on the player's name.

{{youtubevid|deqhvSJqTQY|Old_Stigma|glitch}}

==Effects==
The wild Pokémon that appear are based on the player's name and the hex values of the characters in it. The third, fifth and seventh slots of the player's name are the species of Pokémon that will appear (see table below). The second slot of the player's name becomes the level of the Pokémon caused to appear by the third slot, the fourth slot for the fifth slot, and the sixth slot for the seventh slot. The game also reads the ninth and eleventh slots as wild Pokémon and the eighth and tenth slots as levels; however, due to the seven character name limit, these slots cannot be changed, thus the eighth slot appears as two values, one of which tells the game that the string ends prematurely, (50 and 00 = Level 80 and 0) and the ninth appears blank (00 = {{'M}}).

At the end of the player's name, there is a special character to mark the end of the name. This character can either cause MissingNo. to appear, or create the possibility for wild 'M (00) to be at level 80.

The eighth through eleventh bytes are only 00 if using a custom name; using a [[#Preset names|preset name]] results in these extra bytes being filled by the series of other preset name separated by end of name markers (with NEW NAME after the last preset name). As such, 'M (00) will not appear when using a preset name.

==Results==
===Custom name===
This table demonstrates what Pokémon specific characters in the player's name will cause to appear, or the level of the Pokémon that they will cause to appear. Only characters possible to include in the player's name are included. [[Glitch Trainer]]s are in '''bold'''.

===Preset names===
Choosing a preset name will result in different results to inputting a custom name. Inputting a custom name which is the same as a preset name will not cause the glitch to behave as if a preset name was chosen.

Preset names function differently because they are stored one after the other in the game data, separated by the end of name marker, whereas custom names are succeeded by zeros after the end of name marker. In English Pokémon Red, the player's name is stored as "RED<end>ASH<end>JACK<end>NEW NAME", starting from the selected name; in English Pokémon Blue, the player's name is stored as "BLUE<end>GARY<end>JOHN<end>NEW NAME", likewise starting from the selected name.

Due to the names extending past the usual seven character limit, the ninth and eleventh characters are also used to determine the wild Pokémon, and their levels are determined by the eighth and tenth characters, respectively. These characters are usually null, so cause [['M (00)]] to appear, and Pokémon to appear at level 0, respectively. Because of this, unlike when inputting a custom name, [['M (00)]] do not appear when using a preset name. Characters after the eleventh are ignored.

==Cause==
When the game sets up the battle between the {{ka|old man}} and a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Weedle}}, it needs to temporarily change the player's name to "OLD MAN" so that it will display that name, rather than the player's entered name, during the battle.

The programmers decided to use the space where data for [[wild Pokémon]] found in the grass is stored (which is completely blank in Viridian City, as only {{m|Surf}}ing and [[Fishing]] data is used) to save the player's name temporarily. Normally, this would cause no abnormal activity, as this data is overwritten when the player moves to a different area.

In all cities, however, this data remains blank, and so the data is never overwritten (as there is nothing new to overwrite it with), and thus, the data that was last entered (be it the player's name or the wild Pokémon data from another area) remains in place. This itself still causes no harm; however, an oversight in the programming of the tiles used to denote the shore of [[Cinnabar Island]] marks them as equivalent to grass. As all [[water route]]s have no real grass on them, likewise, the data is not overwritten, and so whatever data is in the slots for wild Pokémon found in the grass is used, be it the player's name or wild Pokémon found elsewhere, such as the {{safari|Kanto}}.

The name of the player has six hexadecimal values in it. The game needs only three "slots" of wild Pokémon data to store this.

The species of wild Pokémon the player encounters along the coast are determined by the third, fifth, and seventh characters of the player's name, while their levels are determined by the second, fourth, and sixth characters, respectively. The game also reads the ninth and eleventh slots as wild Pokémon and the eighth and tenth slots as their respective levels; however, due to the seven character name limit, these slots are not used unless using a preset name, so are blank (00), causing [['M (00)]] to appear at level 0.

==Other coast related exploits==
:''See also: [[Fight Safari Zone Pokémon trick]]'' 

[[File:Negative HP Stadium.png|thumb|right|256px|A {{p|Golbat}} affected by the glitch in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}]]
Because [[Cinnabar Island]] has no wild Pokémon data but the potential for wild Pokémon to appear, and that wild Pokémon data is not formatted when entering a new area, any location that can be {{m|Fly|flown}} from can have its wild Pokémon available on the coast.

This includes the {{safari|Kanto}}, so players can encounter Safari Pokémon under normal battling circumstances. Since the old man only writes to the first eleven wild Pokémon addresses, it means that extra Pokémon may be accessible even if the player's name is eleven characters long (which is possible with preset names). This grass Pokémon data is mapped to three 'uncommon encounters' and two 'rare encounters'.

Due to being able to find Pokémon over level 100, it is possible to trigger glitches relating to Pokémon with levels that are too high. If Pokémon over level 100 receives experience by battle, it will automatically go to level 100; Rare Candies will level up the Pokémon normally. If the Pokémon's remaining HP is already low, dropping to level 100 can cause the HP to drop to negative number, but it will be interpreted as a very high number, similarly to the [[Pomeg glitch]]. In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, HP is shown as the actual amount; in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], it will act as if its HP was full.

Reportedly, the first coast exploit discovered involved performing an in-game trade with an NPC and surfing on the coast.<ref>[http://www.gamefaqs.com/gameboy/367023-pokemon-red-version/faqs/38434 Okk's MissingNo. guide]</ref> This results in five level 80 hex:50 MissingNo. because the encounters are affected by the trade Pokémon's [[Original Trainer|OT]] name. Specifically, grass data is overwritten with "5D 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50". The 5D byte is a control character that prints "TRAINER" and the rest of the bytes are 'end name' characters.

Trading or fighting in the [[Cable Club]] overwrites the wild Pokémon data with the opponent's name, and by using the poison method of the [[Cable Club escape glitch]] one may escape from the Cable Club and keep the stored grass Pokémon data that normally disappears after resetting the game (even after trading). Note that battling heals the user's Pokémon, meaning that the player has to do this glitch by bringing up the trade screen.

This Cable Club coast exploit has an unexplained complication of affecting encounters further than uncommon Pokémon 1 (D891); for example, glitch Trainer FD can appear on the coast through this method.

'''Kris''' (Japanese: '''{{j|クリス}}''' ''Kris'') is the female playable character in {{game|Crystal}}. Her male counterpart is {{ga|Ethan}}.

She was the first female player character in the [[core series]] games, a feature that would be carried on in subsequent game releases.

As she only appears in {{game|Crystal}}, she has the fewest appearances by a player character in the core series. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, she is replaced by {{ga|Lyra}}.

Kris does not have an official name due to her lack of name in the internal game data and the fact she does not appear as a non-player character. Instead, the name Kris comes from the back of the American Pokémon Crystal version's boxart. The name Kris is also the first default name.

==Storyline in the games==
Kris's journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] begins when [[Professor Elm]] asks her to run an errand for [[Mr. Pokémon]], who lives north of [[Cherrygrove City]]. Because she may encounter dangerous [[wild Pokémon]] along the way, Elm gives her a choice between three Pokémon to protect her: {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}} or {{p|Chikorita}}.

Kris meets a boy watching Elm's Lab from outside. When she tries to talk to him, the boy abruptly shoves her away. The boy, {{ga|Silver}}, will become Kris's rival, analogous to {{ga|Blue}} in [[Generation I]].

Kris continues onward and finally meets Mr. Pokémon and completes her errand. While there she meets [[Professor Oak]] who, upon realizing Kris's bond with her new Pokémon, gives her a [[Pokédex]]. On her way back home, Kris again meets Silver, who has stolen one of Elm's remaining Pokémon. After defeating the boy in battle, she learns his name and relays it to the police in New Bark Town. Professor Elm allows Kris to keep the Pokémon she chose earlier, and encourages her to compete in the [[Johto League]].

From there Kris begins on a Pokémon journey in the [[Johto]] [[region]], facing off against its eight [[Gym Leader]]s, defeating and disbanding the newly reformed [[Team Rocket]], and becoming [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]] by defeating the [[Elite Four]] and its previous Champion, [[Lance]] at [[Indigo Plateau]]. Along the way she also teaches Silver to respect Pokémon as living creatures and not just as tools for battle. Kris also uncovered the mystery of the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] and its legendary Pokémon, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, and {{p|Raikou}}.

After being declared the Pokémon League Champion, Kris then takes a short trip on a ship, the [[S.S. Aqua]], from [[Olivine City]] to [[Vermilion City]] in [[Kanto]]. Journeying across that region, she battles against its own set of eight Gym Leaders, including two new faces, [[Janine]], who replaced her father [[Koga]] on his promotion to the Elite Four, and {{ga|Blue}}, who was formerly Pokémon League Champion himself, and replaced [[Giovanni]] after the latter fled. Upon getting permission from [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]], Kris heads for [[Mt. Silver]] via {{rt|28|Kanto}}. Her journey comes to a close when she faces the Champion from Pallet Town Pokémon Trainer {{ga|Red}} deep in Mt. Silver Cave, who had been training there since shortly after he became Pokémon League Champion [[Generation I|three years prior]].

'''Kris''' (Japanese: '''{{j|クリス}}''' ''Kris'') is the female playable character in {{game|Crystal}}. Her male counterpart is {{ga|Ethan}}.

She was the first female player character in the [[core series]] games, a feature that would be carried on in subsequent game releases.

As she only appears in {{game|Crystal}}, she has the fewest appearances by a player character in the core series. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, she is replaced by {{ga|Lyra}}.

Kris does not have an official name due to her lack of name in the internal game data and the fact she does not appear as a non-player character. Instead, the name Kris comes from the back of the American Pokémon Crystal version's boxart. The name Kris is also the first default name.

==Storyline in the games==
Kris's journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] begins when [[Professor Elm]] asks her to run an errand for [[Mr. Pokémon]], who lives north of [[Cherrygrove City]]. Because she may encounter dangerous [[wild Pokémon]] along the way, Elm gives her a choice between three Pokémon to protect her: {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}} or {{p|Chikorita}}.

Kris meets a boy watching Elm's Lab from outside. When she tries to talk to him, the boy abruptly shoves her away. The boy, {{ga|Silver}}, will become Kris's rival, analogous to {{ga|Blue}} in [[Generation I]].

Kris continues onward and finally meets Mr. Pokémon and completes her errand. While there she meets [[Professor Oak]] who, upon realizing Kris's bond with her new Pokémon, gives her a [[Pokédex]]. On her way back home, Kris again meets Silver, who has stolen one of Elm's remaining Pokémon. After defeating the boy in battle, she learns his name and relays it to the police in New Bark Town. Professor Elm allows Kris to keep the Pokémon she chose earlier, and encourages her to compete in the [[Johto League]].

From there Kris begins on a Pokémon journey in the [[Johto]] [[region]], facing off against its eight [[Gym Leader]]s, defeating and disbanding the newly reformed [[Team Rocket]], and becoming [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]] by defeating the [[Elite Four]] and its previous Champion, [[Lance]] at [[Indigo Plateau]]. Along the way she also teaches Silver to respect Pokémon as living creatures and not just as tools for battle. Kris also uncovered the mystery of the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] and its legendary Pokémon, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, and {{p|Raikou}}.

After being declared the Pokémon League Champion, Kris then takes a short trip on a ship, the [[S.S. Aqua]], from [[Olivine City]] to [[Vermilion City]] in [[Kanto]]. Journeying across that region, she battles against its own set of eight Gym Leaders, including two new faces, [[Janine]], who replaced her father [[Koga]] on his promotion to the Elite Four, and {{ga|Blue}}, who was formerly Pokémon League Champion himself, and replaced [[Giovanni]] after the latter fled. Upon getting permission from [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]], Kris heads for [[Mt. Silver]] via {{rt|28|Kanto}}. Her journey comes to a close when she faces the Champion from Pallet Town Pokémon Trainer {{ga|Red}} deep in Mt. Silver Cave, who had been training there since shortly after he became Pokémon League Champion [[Generation I|three years prior]].

'''Mew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウ''' ''Mew'') is a {{type|Psychic}} [[Mythical Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation I]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Mew is notable for its unique ability to learn every [[TM|Technical Machine]], [[HM|Hidden Machine]], and [[Move Tutor]] move (except those exclusive to a particular Pokémon or group of Pokémon, such as {{m|Draco Meteor}} and {{m|Secret Sword}}).

Mew is the last Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]].

It is a member of the [[Mew duo]] along with {{p|Mewtwo}}.

==Biology==
Mew is a pink, bipedal Pokémon with mammalian features. Its snout is short and wide, and it has triangular ears and large, blue eyes. It has short arms with three-fingered paws, large hind legs and feet with oval markings on the soles, and a long, thin tail ending in an ovoid tip. Its fur is so fine and thin, it can only be seen under a microscope. Mew is said to have the {{wp|DNA}} of every single Pokémon contained within its body, and as such is able to learn any attack.

As demonstrated by its behavior in the [[M01|first]] and [[M08|eighth]] Pokémon movies, it shows signs of intelligence, curiosity, playfulness, and even selflessness. Mew is incredibly adaptable, able to travel freely in the air or underwater. As seen in [[Pokémon Snap]], it can create a green/yellow/pink orb of energy around itself for protection.

[[Pokémon Mansion journals|Reports]] found in [[Cinnabar Island]]'s {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} note scientific expeditions that have sighted Mew in [[Guyana]], South America, the place where it was first discovered. Since Mew can make itself invisible at will, very few people have {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|knowingly seen it}}, leading some scientists to declare it extinct and most to assume it to be a mirage. It will only show itself to a person who is pure of heart.

==In the anime==
{{spoilers}}
===In the main series===
[[File:Mew M01.png|thumb|250px|left|Mew in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'']]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Mew (M01)]]=====
In this movie, Mew made a couple of cameo appearances at the start of the movie. A {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}} was cloned from Mew's DNA, extracted from Mew's eyelash. Later, Mew started appearing around [[New Island]] while Mewtwo was testing his [[starter Pokémon]] clones. Mew followed [[Team Rocket]] into the main part of the island so it could stop Mewtwo from destroying the world. After the end credits of the movie, Mew is shown flying to the mountains.

In the Japanese version, Mew's characterization was different. Mew's intention was to wipe out cloned Pokémon, Mewtwo included, because it viewed them as inferior, in stark contrast to Mewtwo, who wished to eliminate natural-born.

Mew also appears in the radio drama ''[[The Birth of Mewtwo]]'', adapted into the anime short ''[[The Uncut Story of Mewtwo's Origin]]''.

Mew makes a small appearance in the hour-length special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', the sequel to ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'': Mew is first shown in flashbacks of the first movie and then named by Mewtwo when it reflects about its creation before the title screen appears (though this dialogue was changed in the dub and Mew is not named). Mewtwo also sees Mew after being thrown into the Purity Spring, but this Mew is just part of Mewtwo's imagination.
[[File:Mew M08.png|thumb|250px|Mew in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
=====[[Mew (M08)]]=====
Another Mew first appeared transformed as a {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and then as a {{p|Taillow}}, landing on [[Cameran Palace]] and then {{m|transform}}ing into {{p|Treecko}}. It then transformed into an {{p|Aipom}} to play with [[Ash's Pikachu]]. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} released their Pokémon to play with what they thought was an Aipom.

After taking them to an attic, [[Kidd Summers]] sent her two {{p|Weavile}} after it. To escape, it {{m|teleport}}ed itself, along with Pikachu and {{MTR}}. It then transformed once again into a {{p|Pidgeot}} and flew the Pokémon to the [[Tree of Beginning]]. While Ash and the others were looking for Pikachu, Mew kept it entertained with toys.

Mew also nearly sacrificed itself to save the Tree of Beginning. {{mov|Lucario|Lucario|08}} stepped in and was able to save Mew, but ended up sacrificing itself. Mew is believed to still reside at the Tree of Beginning. It is last seen playing with a {{p|Bonsly}}.

=====Other=====
A Mew appears in ''[[PK14|Pokémon 3D Adventure: Find Mew!]]''.

A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mew appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and helps to interfere with the plans of [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

====Minor appearances====
[[Lawrence III]]'s actions in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' were apparently set in motion due to an {{TCG ID|The Power of One|Ancient Mew|promo}} card; the card itself was actually shown in the movie.

A Mew appeared in the opening of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

A Mew appeared in the [[boss fantasy]] of ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''. As of this episode, every {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} has appeared in at least one episode of the anime.

A Mew appeared in [[Alexa]]'s [[Magazines in the Pokémon world|magazine]] in ''[[BW134|The Journalist from Another Region!]].''

An image of Mew appeared on a computer screen used by [[Mewtwo's creators]] in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''.

A Mew made a cameo appearance in the ending credits in ''[[PK24|Meloetta's Moonlight Serenade]]''.

[[File:Mew PO.png|thumb|250px|Mew in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
===In Pokémon Origins===
A Mew briefly appeared at the end of ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', being the only {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} that {{OBP|Red|Origins}} hadn't caught by the end of the mini-series.
{{-}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Mew Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Mew in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the movie adaptations===
{{main|Mew (M01)}}
{{main|Mew (M08)}}
Two different Mew appear in the {{ma|Mewtwo Strikes Back!|manga}} {{ma|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew|adaptations}} of the [[M01|first]] and [[M08|eighth]] [[Pokémon movie]]s.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Mew (Adventures)}}
Mew debuted in the first round of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, ''[[PS001|A Glimpse of the Glow]]''.

In ''[[PS017|The Jynx Jinx]]'', {{adv|Green}}'s [[Ditty]] {{m|transform}}ed into Mew as an example to Red. It later used this form to lure the Team Rocket Grunts away.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Mew appeared in ''[[PM004|Obtain the Moon Stone!!]]''. This one is actually a woman who was accidentally transformed after an experiment went wrong. She turns back later to her normal form.

{{OBP|Giovanni|Pocket Monsters}} catches Mew as part of the supplies used for the creation of {{p|Mewtwo}}. It was released along with Mewtwo after the creation was unsuccessful.

===In the Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga===
{{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} befriended a Mew in ''[[PMRS50|Showdown! Clefairy VS Mew!!]]''.

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

==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Mew.png|right|thumb|200px|Mew in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===Super Smash Bros. series===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' Mew will sometimes appear out of a [[Poké Ball]]. When summoned, it will use {{m|Fly}} to leave the arena. In single player, the summoner is awarded the "Mew Catcher" bonus, worth 10,000 points.

After unlocking every character in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]], there is a 1 in 251 chance of Mew appearing from a Poké Ball. The thrower of the Poké Ball receives the same "Mew Catcher" bonus.

Mew returns again as a rare Pokémon in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]], the chance of it appearing is 1 in 493 this time. Like the other "secret" Pokémon, it drops rare items instead of just flying away. In Mew's case, the items are CDs. However, once all the pick-up CDs are obtained, it will drop Stickers instead.

Mew returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]'' and comes out of a Poké Ball (rarely) and/or Master Ball (rare, but less rare than a Poké Ball).

Mew throughout the ''Smash'' series, much like Mewtwo, is roughly akin to the first movie portrayal, especially having Kōichi Yamadera reprise his role.
====Melee trophy information====
''Mew is an extremely rare Pokémon that has been seen by only a few people. Information on every Pokémon in the world is contained in Mew's cell structure, so it has the ability to use any and all TMs and HMs. Some Pokémon scholars believe Mew to be the ancestor of all existing Pokémon, but the idea is debatable.''

====Brawl trophy information====
''"A New Species Pokémon. An extremely rare Pokémon that contains the DNA of all other Pokémon, it is thought by many scholars to be a Pokémon ancestor, considering the wide range of moves it can use. On top of being able to make itself invisible, Mew can also {{m|transform}} into any opponent Pokémon and use characteristics and moves in exactly the same way."''

====3DS/Wii U trophy information====
'''NA''': ''Mew is a Pokémon previously thought to be extinct but rediscovered by [[Mr. Fuji|Dr. Fuji]]. This Legendary Pokémon doesn't often show itself to humans, so it is considered quite lucky to see one. In Smash Bros., Mew will appear and then use Fly to sail away, leaving behind a gift. Thanks, Mew! ''

'''PAL''': ''Mew was thought to be extinct until it was rediscovered by Dr. Fuji in Guyana. This Mythical Pokémon doesn't often show itself to humans, so it's considered very lucky to see one. In this game, it will float upwards and leave a present behind. If only Mew would turn up more often, eh?''

==={{g|Snap}}===
Mew appears in the seventh course, [[Rainbow Cloud]]. Although the game is not combat-oriented, the difficulty of photographing Mew effectively makes it the game's boss. Mew floats in a bubble that turns opaque when the zoom is activated, so players must throw a series of Pester Balls or Food at it to break the bubble so Mew will come out for a clear shot. Photographing Mew gets an automatic bonus of 2500 points, making it the highest ranking Pokémon in the game with a highest possible score of 10,000 points with perfect positioning, size and pose.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: Mew is the guardian of the [[Seven Treasures|Grass Cornet]].
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]] Mew takes Pikachu and their friends {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Piplup}}, and {{p|Charmander}} to the {{ga|PokéPark}}. He then appears to Pikachu in a dream once they've arrived in the PokéPark and tells Pikachu to collect pieces of the [[Sky Prism]] so that peace can be restored to the PokéPark. Once all the pieces have been obtained Mew awaits Pikachu at the [[Sky Pavilion]] where he plays. In this game, Mew is referred to as male, despite being genderless in the main series.

==Trivia==
* Despite being a clone of Mew, {{p|Mewtwo}} appears before Mew in the Pokédex.
* Mew was the only Pokémon of the first 151 to be left out of the original version of the [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokérap]].
* In Generation I and II, due to technical limitations, ''New Species'' is labeled in game as ''NEW SPECIE''. (and in early versions, labeled as ''NEWSPECIES'')
* Mew was a little-known secret when {{game|Red and Green|s}} were first released in Japan. Even Nintendo was not initially aware that [[Shigeki Morimoto]] had programmed it into the game.<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/news/iwata/iwata_asks_-_pokmon_heartgold_version__soulsilver_version_16288_16289.html</ref>
** In an interview with [[Game Freak]] and [[Creatures, Inc.]] in [[Nintendo Power]] issue 134, [[Shigeki Morimoto]] revealed that he created Mew two weeks before game development was finished.
* In the games, lost scientific reports state that Mew was found in the forests of [[Guyana]].
* In [[Generation III]], Mew is the only Generation I Pokémon that cannot be encountered in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, as well as the only Generation I Legendary or Mythical Pokémon that can be encountered in {{v2|Emerald}}.
* Mew is tied with Mewtwo for the most anime opening appearances of any Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, with seven in Japan.
* Mew is the only genderless Pokémon able to learn {{m|Captivate}}; however, when used by genderless Pokémon, this move will always fail.
* In [[Super Smash Bros.]] it has a chance of 1 out of 151 to appear, in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], its chance to appear is 1 out of 251, and in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], its chance to appear is 1 out of 493. This is a reference to how many Pokémon were out during the release of each game (151 in [[Generation I]], 251 in [[Generation II]], and 493 in [[Generation IV]]).
[[File:Wildmew.png|thumb|right|A wild Mew found using the [[Mew glitch]]]]
* Mew shares the move {{m|Transform}} with {{p|Ditto}}, along with also sharing the same {{Shiny}} coloration and the same weight. In addition, in {{game|Yellow}}, Ditto can be encountered in the Pokémon Mansion on Cinnabar Island, where [[Pokémon Mansion journals|diary entries]] on Mew can be found.
* The US release of Mew as an event for {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} happened on the ten-year anniversary of the original release of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
* Mew was voted the most popular Pokémon in the {{n|Official Pokémon website announces Pokémon Power Bracket|Pokémon Power Bracket}}, which included all Legendary and Mythical Pokémon from the first four generations.
* Mew started the trend of every generation (through [[Generation V]]) introducing a Mythical Pokémon with a base stat total of 600 and a stat distribution of 100 all around. Others that follow this trend include {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Land Forme}} {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Victini}}.
* The only way to legitimately obtain a {{Shiny}} Mew is via the [[Old Sea Map]] on a Japanese copy of {{game|Emerald}}.
* Mew is one of two Pokémon to have the shortest English Pokémon name, {{p|Muk}} being the other.

===Trademark===
* Mew (then spelled ミュー, not ミュウ) was the first Pokémon trademark ever registered (granted on March 31, 1994, registration number 2636685 part 12), before even Pocket Monsters (ポケットモンスター), which was granted on December 26, 1997.
** ミュウ was registered on August 6, 1999, registration number 4302090.
* Mew is also the first Pokémon trademark ever applied for; the application was submitted on May 9, 1990, application number 平2-51989; before even Pocket Monsters, which was submitted September 11, 1995.
** ミュウ was submitted on June 17, 1997, application number 平9-128909.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Mew}}
Mew is similar to a vertebrate {{wp|embryo}}. It shares many traits with {{wp|cats}}. Its morphology is also vaguely similar to a {{wp|jerboa}}, having large hind legs and a long skinny tail. It is believed by scientists to be the ancestor of all other Pokémon, which, along with its resemblance to an embryo, may be a reference to the {{wp|recapitulation theory}}.

====Name origin====
Mew may be derived from 妙 ''myō'' (strange/unusual), ''mew'' (the sound a kitten makes, referring to its size and cat-like appearance), or ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto), or it may be a combination of ''mystery'' and ''new'' (considering that it is mysterious and "newly" discovered).
