'''Linoone''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マッスグマ''' ''Massuguma'') is a {{type2|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Zigzagoon}} starting at [[level]] 20.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Linoone are badger-like creatures with characteristics of weasels, ferrets, and raccoons. Their slender bodies resemble a weasel or ferret, and their sharp elongated claws resemble those of a badger. Their fur is white in color with brown stripes that resemble arrows and lightning bolts. They also have small sharp teeth that are efficiently used with their claws in hunting. A long stripe stretches the length of the body, ending at an arrowhead right above its eyes. Linoone have small, tuft-like ears and blue eyes. It bears a resemblance to {{p|Furret}}.

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

====Special abilities====
Linoone can run extremely fast, peaking at over 60 mph. Since Linoone have a keen sense of smell, they are able to locate and {{a|Pickup}} items while its trainer walks around.

When the Generation IV games were introduced, Linoone was given another ability. Due to the fact that it loves berries more than almost anything else, it is a complete {{a|Gluttony|glutton}} when it comes to them. Linoone has the ability to learn many HM's as well.

===Behavior===
Linoone are incredibly fast, but they aren't the best at cornering, so they typically run in a straight line. Linoone have an attraction to anything round, and will grab any orb-shaped object they see if given the chance. They often carry a snatched object in their expandable cheek pouches and deposit it in any of a number of secret stashes they keep on their territory. When it spots pond-dwelling prey underwater, it quickly leaps in and catches it with its sharp claws.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Linoone tend to live in forests and grasslands, similar to actual {{wp|racoon}}s.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Linoone is an omnivore, eating both land-dwelling and aquatic prey in addition to berries, seemingly its favorite food.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Linoone anime.png|thumb|right|210px|Linoone in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
In ''[[AG112|Showdown at Linoone]]'', a Linoone nicknamed "Tokin" had developed a bad habit of stealing anything round.

===Minor appearances===
Linoone made a cameo in the {{pkmn|movie}} ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'' as one of the Pokémon living in [[Forina]].

In ''[[AG155|Green Guardian]]'', [[Solana]] used her [[Capture Styler]] to get help from three of Linoone to slash the vines.

In ''[[DP005|Gettin' Twiggy With It!]]'', an injured Linoone is nursed back to health.

A Linoone appeared in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''.

Three Linoone made a appearance in the movie ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]].'' The three belonged to [[Damos]] and were used to attack {{an|Arceus}}.

Linoone appeared in ''[[Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'' as a few of the many local Pokémon who lives in [[Crown City]]. One Linoone worked with several other Pokémon in surrounding [[Zorua (movie 13)|Zorua]] in the park to attack him, angry at Zorua for what [[Zoroark (movie 13)|Zoroark]] did to the city. Before a fight broke out, Linoone, along with the other Pokémon, were calmed by [[Celebi (movie 13)|Celebi]].

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG112|Linoone|Ash's Pokédex|Linoone, the Rushing Pokémon. Linoone is the evolved form of {{p|Zigzagoon}}. It can run at speeds over 60 miles per hour but does not handle curves well.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}
{{Animedexbody|DP005|Linoone|Dawn's Pokédex|Linoone, the Rushing Pokémon. When it spots its prey, it runs after it in a straight line. Though able to run over sixty miles per hour, it is unable to turn.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}

==In the manga==
{{adv|Emerald}} used a Linoone holding a [[Choice Band]] to breeze through the [[Battle Factory]]. Because it was a rental Pokémon he'd just received, its extra-powerful {{m|Frustration}} went a long way before he challenged {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}}.

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

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
[[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: When {{p|Chikorita}} uses {{m|Razor Leaf}} on the Ruby Field, two Linoone will pop out. Hitting the left Linoone will make a {{p|Gulpin}} appear, activating Travel Mode when there are three Gulpin on the table. Hitting the right Linoone will change the stance of {{p|Makuhita}} allowing it to punch the ball towards the Upgrade.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex
|type=normal
|gen=3
|rubydex=Linoone always runs full speed and only in straight lines. If facing an obstacle, it makes a right-angle turn to evade it. This Pokémon is very challenged by gently curving roads.
|sapphiredex=When hunting, Linoone will make a beeline straight for the prey at a full run. While this Pokémon is capable of topping 60 mph, it has to come to a screeching halt before it can turn.
|emeralddex=It is exceedingly fast if it only has to run in a straight line. When it spots pond-dwelling prey underwater, it quickly leaps in and catches it with its sharp claws.
|frlgdex=When running in a straight line, it can top 60 miles per hour. However, it has a tough time with curved roads.
|dpptdex=It charges prey at speeds over 60 mph. However, because it can only run straight, it often fails.
|hgssdex=When running in a straight line, it can easily top 60 miles an hour. It has a tough time with curved roads.
|bwdex={{tt|じそく１００キロで　えものに　おそいかかるが　まっすぐにしか　はしれないので　しっぱいも　おおい。|It charges prey at speeds over 60 mph. However, because it can only run straight, it often fails.}}

==Trivia==
*Linoone and {{p|Ambipom}} are the only evolved Pokémon that have {{a|Pickup}}.
*Linoone is the only Pokémon that can use the [[Lookalike items#Mix Elixir|Mix Elixir]] in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]].
*Linoone is the shortest fully-evolved Pokémon at 1 foot and 8 inches.

===Origin===
Linoone's appearance is possibly a cross between the {{wp|European Badger}} and a member of the {{wp|weasel}} and/or {{wp|ferret}} family. It has the same color scheme of a {{wp|raccoon dog|tanuki}} and a {{wp|raccoon}} and its stripes slightly resemble flames and lighting, which may be a reference to {{wp|Auto Racing|race cars}}, who typically use these patterns on their vehicles for show. Linoone may be based on the legendary {{wp|Kamaitachi}}, which is usually depicted as 3 lighting fast weasels, whom weild razor-sharp claws which tear into their victims. It may also be based on the {{wp|Ramidreju}}; a long, weasel-like creature, whom has a desire for gold, which may have been the basis of Linoone's obsession for round objects. Its appearance may also based on a {{wp|Ferret-badger}}.

====Name origin====
Linoone's name may be a combination of ''line'', referring to its sleek appearance, and ''{{wp|raccoon}}''. It could also be referring to its ability to only run in straight lines.

''Massuguma'' may be a combination of まっすぐ ''massugu'', meaning straight, as in a line, and {{tt|洗い熊|アライグマ}} ''araiguma'', meaning {{wp|raccoon}}, or {{tt|穴熊|アナグマ}} ''anaguma'', meaning ''{{wp|badger}}''. Also of note, the ''guma'' suffix is often used for mammals that resemble bears. Also 飯綱 "iizuna " meaning Least Weasel (Mustela nivalis) since it looks like a weasel.

'''Beldum''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダンバル''' ''Dumbber'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Metang}} starting at [[level]] 20, who evolves into {{p|Metagross}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Beldum is a robotic lifeform that has a long body with a set of claws sticking out of its rear end. It has one large red eye in the center of its nearly-round head, which is set into a ball-and-socket joint at its front end. It has a short crest above its head, projecting from its body. Even though Beldum and its evolved forms are mechanical creatures, they still have emotions, the need to eat and a way of reproducing. Beldum has been said to be related to {{p|Magnemite}} due to the fact that both of them are partially Steel-type that create electromagnetic waves to float in the air, and probably due to the fact that they evolve in a similar fashion, it takes two Beldum to evolve into a Metang and two Metang to evolve into a Metagross.

====Gender differences====
Beldum is a genderless species.

====Special abilities====
Beldum's body is magnetised, and it uses magnetism to move, communicate, and control its attacks. It is said to be related to Magnemite, but Beldum's magnetism focuses on {{t|Psychic}} moves instead of {{t|Electric}} moves. Beldum's skills in battle are extremely limited as it is only capable of using {{m|Take Down}}.

===Behavior===
Beldum sometimes gather in swarms, communicating with each other telepathically.

[[File:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon}}]]
===Habitat===
Beldum are scarce in the wild, but they do tend to inhabit areas with rugged terrain.
Also, when they sleep, they anchor themselves to a cliff using their hooks.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Morrison Beldum.png|thumb|210px|{{TP|Morrison|Beldum|Metang}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Beldum first appeared in ''[[AG118|Less is Morrison]]'' where it belonged to [[Morrison]]. It evolved into {{TP|Morrison|Metang}} in ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]''.

===Minor appearances===

A Beldum appeared in [[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]] under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Backer]] participant.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG118|Beldum|May's Pokédex|Beldum, the Iron Ball Pokémon. Beldum floats by emitting magnetic waves from its body to repel the Earth's magnetic field. They launch their claws into cliffs where they sleep.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], [[Steven Stone]] owns a large amount of Beldum that serve, along with a {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Metagross}}, as miners that help him unearth rare stones in various caves around Hoenn. These same Beldum were called upon to defeat the {{p|Mawile}} herd in [[Granite Cave]] when both {{adv|Ruby}} and Steven were attacked by them.

==Trivia==
*Beldum's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] is the same: 190. This makes it one of thirteen Pokémon (only five evolution families) to have the same numbers in more than one [[Pokédex]]-like listing.
* Beldum, along with its evolved forms, are the only non-legendary Pokémon to have a catch rate of 3, which is the lowest possible. In [[Generation III]], this low catch rate would never take effect, unless the player is [[cheating]] or encountering a {{p|Ditto}} that transforms into Beldum. However, in [[Generation IV]], Beldum can be found as a swarm on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}}, making Beldum extremely difficult to capture due to its self-damaging move ({{m|Take Down}}) and the everlasting {{m|Sandstorm}}, which hurts all but {{t|Steel}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type2|Ground}}s for 1/16 of their health every turn.
* Up until {{game|Platinum}}, Beldum could not learn any move except {{m|Take Down}} and incidentally could not damage {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon outside of {{m|Struggle}}.
** All damaging [[move tutor|tutor moves]] Beldum can learn are head-based attacks with {{status|flinch|flinch}} as a secondary effect.
* Despite depictions of Beldum levitating in the {{pkmn|anime}} and Pokédex entries noting that they are able to float through the air by employing powerful electromagnetic waves, Beldum does not have the ability {{a|Levitate}}. However, as of [[Generation IV]], Beldum's evolution {{p|Metang}} can learn {{m|Magnet Rise}} which simulates Levitate for a short period of time.
* Beldum's evolutionary family evolves into their next-stage forms the earliest of all the [[Pseudo-legendary|pseudo-legendaries]] - Beldum into {{p|Metang}} at level 20, and {{p|Metang}} into {{p|Metagross}} at level 45.

===Origin===
Beldum seems to be a magnetic robot based on a {{wp|dumbbell}}. It also resembles a limb of a {{p|Metang}} or {{p|Metagross}}.

===Name origin===
Beldum is possibly derived from ''dumbbell''. ''Dumbber'' is derived from ''dumbbell'', a small weight used in weight training.

{{StrategyWiki|Pokémon Black and White}}

'''Pokémon Black Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターブラック''' ''Pocket Monsters Black'') and '''Pokémon White Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターホワイト''' ''Pocket Monsters White'') are the primary [[paired version]]s of [[Generation V]]. They are, like [[Generation IV]]'s games, on the [[Nintendo DS]].

Black and White follow the trends set up by previous games in the series. Two [[player character]]s (one male and one female) travel a new region, [[Unova]], on their [[Pokémon journey]]s. This region is inhabited by various {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and unlike before, none of those available prior to [[Generation V]] can be obtained before defeating the Elite Four. The first of the new Pokémon to be featured in these games, {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}, were revealed on February 10, 2010 in [[CoroCoro]] magazine, and the [[starter Pokémon]] were revealed in May.

The games' names were revealed on the official Japanese Pokémon website on April 9, and scans from the subsequent issue of the magazine were leaked on April 10. These scans revealed some of the graphical enhancements that are featured in these games. There is a higher level of 3D graphics than in previous games, as shown in some shots of the overworld. Initial sprites can be seen for Zorua, Zoroark, and the [[player character]]s.

In addition to the improved graphics, a number of aesthetic changes have been made from previous generations, including an altered battle scene containing fully animated Pokémon battle sprites as well as a dynamic camera that changes focus to highlight specific parts of the battle. Also, when talking to people, {{wp|speech balloon}}s for dialog will appear over people's heads, rather than as simply a dialog box.

Black and White are compatible with all five [[Generation IV]] games through use of the [[PokéShifter]]—unlike [[Pal Park]], however, [[item]]s cannot be held by Pokémon being sent over. Pokémon can be sent from Generation III games, as well, by transfer through Generation IV. The games also have the capacity to connect to the {{wp|Internet}}.

==Plot==
{{incomplete|section}}
{{spoilers}}
The game starts in [[Kanoko Town]] in the player's room with [[Cheren]], a childhood friend. [[Professor Juniper]] has left a gift box for the two and {{ga|Bianca}}, another one of the player's friends, who arrives a little later. The box contains [[Starter Pokémon|three Pokémon]] that the player can choose from. After the selection, Bianca will request a battle. When the battle is over, the room becomes cluttered due to the battle. Cheren heals both the player's and Bianca's Pokémon, and begins a battle with the player as well. If the player loses to Cheren, he will gloat about his victory. The three then go downstairs, and Cheren and Bianca will leave the house while the player's [[mom|mother]] will heal the Pokémon.

The player visits Bianca's house, where she and her father are having an argument about her going on a Pokémon journey. Bianca storms out of the house, and the player follows her to Professor Juniper's lab, where Cheren has been waiting. In the lab, Professor Juniper will give the player a chance to nickname the selected [[starter Pokémon]], and give each of the three a [[Pokédex]]. Upon leaving the lab, they will be greeted by the player's mother, who will hand everyone a [[Town Map]].

From then on, the player will set off on adventures through the Unova region. Along the way, the player will battle eight [[Gym Leader]]s, while trying to complete the [[Pokédex]]. After managing to obtain all eight [[badge]]s, the player will head to the [[Pokémon League]] to battle the [[Elite Four]] and the Champion.

However, the adventure did not go as expected as the evil [[Team Plasma]] will be encountered along the way to the Pokémon League. The player will encounter [[N]], the leader of the evil organization. One of the [[Seven Sages]], [[Geechisu]], has a different goal than their leader. The player must thwart the plans of those two and save the Unova region from being destroyed.

However, unlike previous games, the player will not be battling the Champion of the Unova region when after first defeating the Elite Four; instead, [[N]] is battled. After defeating him, he promises not to separate the world of humans from the world of Pokémon.

After defeating N and Geechisu, however, the game is not over, as there are further activities to be done, such as capturing the other [[legendary Pokémon]] in the game, re-battle the [[Elite Four]] and battle the champion, [[Adeku]], and finding the seven sages who are in various parts of the Unova region.



==Features==
Black and White returns features present in previous generations, such as day, time, abilities and the split between [[Physical move|Physical]] and [[Special move]]s. Certain ones, however, such as [[walking Pokémon|Pokémon following their Trainers]] and the [[Battle Frontier]], have been left out.

===C-Gear===
{{main|C-Gear}}
The C-Gear allows players to use certain multiplayer functions while anywhere in the game world. These functions vary with the type of communication used: wireless, Wi-Fi and infrared. The C-Gear is similar to the [[Pokétch]] in that it fills the bottom screen, but its applications are much different.

On the [[C-Gear]], as well as in battle, the current time is displayed in {{wp|12-hour clock|12-hour}} format, however, at the hours of 12:00 AM and PM, the hour displays as 0, rather than 12, as a {{wp|24-hour clock}}, such as that on the DS and in the [[Generation IV]] games, would display midnight.

===Pokémon Global Link===
{{main|Pokémon Global Link}}
The Pokémon Global Link is a multiplayer feature that makes use of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] and is the equivalent of the fourth generation [[GTS]]. In addition to providing the features of the GTS, it allows players to upload their save files to the Pokémon Global Link website to access the [[Pokémon Dream World]]. Players can also go to the [[Pokémon Center]] to enter Random Matchup where they can battle a random person also connected to Random Matchup. The Global Link is also the place where players can download exclusive content including C-Gear and Pokédex skins.

====Pokémon Dream World====
{{main|Pokémon Dream World}}
The Pokémon Dream World is a special feature of Black and White which is operated via an Internet website, [http://www.pokemon-gl.com/ Pokémon-GL.com]. The Dream World allows players to send a Pokémon to the Internet to obtain items and meet other Pokémon, making the website in a way such that it is a [[Generation V]] analog to the [[Pokéwalker]].

Many Pokémon that are found here are not found in the [[Unova]] region, and would otherwise have to be migrated from a [[Generation IV]] game to be used. All of the Pokémon available here are given Dream World-exclusive hidden abilities that their species cannot have by normal means.

===Entralink===
{{main|Entralink}}
The Entralink is a new feature in Pokémon Black and White which allows contact with other players over local wireless. It is a multiplayer area in central Unova; Pokémon obtained in the [[Pokémon Dream World]] can be caught here. In combination with the [[C-Gear]], it is possible to travel through Unova with other players and battle, trade and perform various multiplayer sidequests.

===Pokémon Musical===
{{main|Pokémon Musical}}
Pokémon Contests, which have been present since [[Generation III]], are replaced by the Pokémon Musicals. Similar to the Super Contests in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, Trainers have to dress up their Pokémon with different accessories. The Pokémon will then compete by dancing on the theater stage with the other entrants. They are held in [[Raimon City]].

===Seasons===
{{main|Seasons}}
Much like [[Generation II]] introduced a system of time, Generation V features a system of seasons. Seasons change every month, which cycles thrice for each year. With it comes aesthetic changes in the region, as well as some changes with the Pokémon found in the wild. Additionally, {{p|Deerling}} and its evolution {{p|Mebukijika}} change forms every season. Some areas can only be accessed in certain seasons.

===Sprite animations===
While already featured in previous games, Pokémon sprites in Black and White remain animated throughout the battle. Additionally, full back sprites are now present in the games. Some, but not all, Pokémon use animated versions of their [[Generation IV]] sprites. All Trainers, on the other hand, with the exception of {{ga|Bianca}}, [[Cheren]] and [[N]], return to sprites with no animations.

===Triple battles===
{{main|Triple battle}}
In a triple battle, three Pokémon on each side are sent out at once. There are restrictions as to which Pokémon can attack which opponent. The Pokémon in the middle can attack all three on the other side, but the ones on either side cannot attack the Pokémon on the far side of the opposite end. However, there are some exceptions to this rule, through the use of moves such as {{m|Acrobatics}}. The Pokémon {{p|Pansage}}, {{p|Pansear}}, and {{p|Panpour}} were introduced to showcase this new feature. The position of each Pokémon can be changed during the battle; however, a turn will be used up.

===Rotation battles===
{{main|Rotational battle}}
Rotational battles are similar to triple battles in that three Pokémon in each team are sent onto each side; however, they are sent out onto a circular platform. The platform can be rotated a third of the way around without wasting a turn. The Pokémon which is in the third of the circle facing the opponent is the one currently active. Strategy revolves around predicting which Pokémon the opponent will switch to and switching to the appropriate Pokémon on the player's side.

===Gyms===
Pokémon Black and White brings back the traditional eight [[Gyms]], but with it a total of eleven [[Gym Leaders]]. They are [[Cilan]], [[Chili]] and [[Cress]] ({{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Water}}, respectively), [[Aloe]] ({{t|Normal}}), [[Arti]] ({{t|Bug}}), [[Kamitsure]] ({{t|Electric}}), [[Yacon]] ({{t|Ground}}), [[Fuuro]] ({{t|Flying}}), [[Hachiku]] ({{t|Ice}}), [[Shaga]] and [[Iris]] ({{t|Dragon}}). Cilan, Chili or Cress are battled if the player has chosen the {{type|Water}}, {{type|Grass}} or {{type|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]], respectively. Shaga is battled in Pokémon Black while Iris is battled in Pokémon White.

===Elite Four===
Unlike previous games, the Elite Four can be battled in any order. After battling all four, a path to the Champion is unlocked. The Elite Four members are [[Shikimi]] ({{t|Ghost}}), [[Giima]] ({{t|Dark}}), [[Caitlin]] ({{t|Psychic}}) and [[Renbu]] ({{t|Fighting}}). However, the player is not able to battle the Champion before defeating [[Team Plasma]]. Later, after defeating them in a rematch, the player will face Champion [[Adeku]], who uses a variety of types. It should be noted that Caitlin is the same person present in the [[Battle Frontier (Generation IV)#Battle Castle|Battle Castle]] who was alongside her butler {{FB|Castle Valet|Darach}} in [[Generation IV]].

===New Pokémon===
:''See [[:Category:Generation V Pokémon]]''
Black and White bring a total of 156 new Pokémon, bringing the overall total to 649 from the 493 present in Generation IV. While some new Pokémon may have similarities to previously introduced Pokémon, none of the new Pokémon are related by evolution to any of the 493 introduced previously.

The first Pokémon to be revealed were {{p|Zoroark}} and {{p|Zorua}}, who were both featured in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''. Unlike previous generations, no other new Pokémon were featured in the main {{pkmn|anime}} prior to the games' release.

* Note that while {{p|Monmen}} and {{p|Churine}} are only available in the wild in Black and White respectively, there is an [[List of in-game trades|in-game trade]] in [[Shippou City]] for the Pokémon which is exclusive to the other game. By extension, this also allows {{p|Elfuun}} and {{p|Doredia}} to be obtained in the versions they are otherwise unobtainable in.
* While {{p|Volbeat}} and {{p|Illumise}} are only available in the wild in Black and White respectively, Illumise can [[breed]] with any male Pokémon in the {{egg3|Bug}}, {{egg3|Humanshape}} or {{p|Ditto}} to produce eggs that have an 50% chance of hatching into Volbeat. However, breeding Volbeat with Ditto will not produce Illumise eggs.

==Compatibility==
Black and White are able to connect with all [[Generation IV|fourth generation]] main series games. Pokémon from Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver are able to be traded forward to these games using the [[PokéShifter]]. Like the transfer available in [[Pal Park]], Pokémon sent to Black and White cannot be returned to their original games. Some event Pokémon released in Generation IV have the ability to unlock more events in Generation V: specific {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}} and {{p|Celebi}}, transferrable via an exclusive method called the [[Transfer Machine]], unlock {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}. Likewise, the [[Lock Capsule]] transferred from Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver yields {{tm|95|Bark Out}}, but this event has yet to take place.

Black and White also have the ability to connect to the Internet, accessing the [[Pokémon Dream World]]; Pokémon acquired in this manner are obtained in the [[Entralink|Entralink forest]]. Although the game cartridges contain infrared technology similar to that used in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Black and White are unable to connect with the [[Pokéwalker]].

==Reception==
[[File:BWFamitsu.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Black and White's perfect score]]
Gaming magazine Famitsu has given Pokémon Black and White Versions perfect scores. The reviewers were highly impressed with the fresh approach that the game has taken, from the graphics to the new features to the diversity of the Pokémon. The reviewers were also impressed by the Wi-Fi and PC features.

Only 14 other games have received a perfect score of 40/40, the first of which was ''{{zw|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time}}'', and the most recent being ''{{wp|Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker}}''.

==Trivia==
* Pokémon Black and White each have a [[Tao trio|mascot]] of the color of their counterpart version.
* Game Freak spent about one and a half years developing the story and characters.<ref>[http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/staff/?p=202 Game Freak's blog]</ref>
** Also, some of the new Pokémon appearing in both games were designed by James Turner of Nintendo of America instead of Game Freak's design team. This is to tie up with the American feel of Black and White.
* Two figures were given away with pre-orders in Japan. People could receive a {{p|Reshiram}} sound drop by pre-ordering Pokémon Black and a {{p|Zekrom}} sound drop by pre-ordering Pokémon White.
* The credits of the Japanese versions are shown in English if kanji mode is selected.
* The {{t|???}} type has been removed, with {{m|Curse}} becoming a {{type|Ghost}} move.
* The font used by the Japanese versions is the same one seen in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl beta|pre-release media]] of the Japanese versions of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* Pokémon Black and White are the first main series games to require the version mascot to be specifically ''caught'', and not merely battled. The story will not continue if {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}} or {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} has not been caught, and will keep acting as if the battle had not occurred yet.
** However, if the player has a full [[party]] and [[PC]], the game does not require the Pokémon to be caught; instead, the Pokémon appears at [[Dragon Spiral Tower]] after defeating it at [[N's Castle]].
* In the international versions, Pokémon names are no longer displayed in all capital letters, following the trend set in [[Generation IV]] of no longer displaying the names of characters, items and locations in all capital letters.
* When the games were advertised or reported on [[Pokémon Sunday]], the song ''{{wp|Black or White}}'' by {{wp|Michael Jackson}} was played multiple times as a reference to the titles of the games.
* These games are the first [[version|main series]] {{pkmn|games}} to be available in Europe before the United States, being released 2 days earlier. However, these are not the first Pokémon titles, being preceded by the spin-off games [[Pokémon Dash]] and [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]].
* These are the first games to have all the Pokémon's names case-sensitive.

'''Oshawott''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミジュマル''' ''Mijumaru'') is a {{type2|Water}} {{obp|Pokémon|species}}.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Futachimaru}} starting at [[level]] 17, which evolves into {{p|Daikenki}} starting at level 36.

Along with {{p|Snivy}} and {{p|Tepig}}, Oshawott is one of the [[starter Pokémon]] of the [[Unova]] region, able to be chosen at the beginning of {{game|Black and White|s}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Oshawott is a bipedal sea otter-like Pokémon, primarily light blue, dark blue, and white in coloration. Oshawott has a rounded, spherical white head, with small, triangular dark-blue ears to the sides. Oshawott's eyes are large, dark, and ovoid in shape; its dark-orange nose is shaped like an oval on its side. Oshawott also possesses speckles to the sides of its face, most likely meant to be a stylistic implication of short whiskers in the common manner of cartoon canines, and light blue bubble-esque features composing a "collar" around its neck. Oshawott's torso is light blue, and decorated with a pale yellow seashell feature in the center. Made out of {{wp|keratin}}, this appendage can be removed and used in various ways; mainly, as a weapon. Its small, digit-less and somewhat rounded arms are white in coloration, with its feet—having, unlike its forearms, discernible digits—colored dark blue. Oshawott also possesses a slightly plank-shaped dark blue tail and a pair of fangs unseen until it opens its mouth.

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

===Special abilities===
It can fight skillfully by detaching the seashell-shaped appendage on its belly. This shell can be used for a variety of different things, such as a acting like a sword, shield, and boomerang.

===Behavior===
If Oshawott is attacked, it will fight back using its shell attachment without any hesitation.

===Habitat===

Oshawott mainly live in water but may come to land.

===Diet===

==Trivia==
[[File:PokéSun May09 10.png|thumb|The three silhouettes on [[Pokémon Sunday]]]]
* Oshawott and its fellow {{2v2|Black|White}} starters were first revealed as silhouettes on the May 9, 2010 episode of [[Pokémon Sunday]]. They were later revealed in full in the June 2010 issue of [[CoroCoro]].
* Oshawott is the first {{type|Water}} [[starter Pokémon]] to be based on a mammal.
* Oshawott and its evolutions are the only {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon that are not in any of the Water [[egg group]]s, being exclusive to the {{egg3|Ground}}.
* Oshawott has the lowest base stat total of all {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon.
* Oshawott is the only [[starter Pokémon]] whose name begins with a vowel, discounting {{p|Eevee}}.
* Ken Sugimori said that Oshawott and its evolutions were the hardest for the team to design during production, as conceptualizing its evolutions were difficult. They eventually settled on a samurai theme and making its final form a sea lion after a trip to an aquarium.{{fact}}

===Origin===
Oshawott is based on a {{wp|sea otter}} and {{wp|samurai}}<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/interview/irbj/sp/index5.html</ref>. The shell on it's stomach seem similar to {{wp|japanese war fans}}.

====Name origin====
Oshawott possibly derives from "ocean", "shell", "water" and "otter"; it may be a corruption of "ocean water". The "osha" part could be a corruption of "O-shaped", given that its Japanese name contains "maru", meaning round. It could also make reference to {{wp|George Ohsawa}}, a famed dietitian born into a poor samurai family during the {{wp|Meiji Restoration}} of Japan. Its Japanese name may be derived from 水 ''mizu'' meaning water, or 未熟 ''mijuku'' meaning naive or immature, and 丸 ''maru'' meaning round. "-maru" is also a common suffix in male Japanese names. The syllable "mi" in its name, meaning "three" or "third", may imply a lineage within the evolutionary line with Mijumaru being third in line.

'''Mudkip''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミズゴロウ''' ''Mizugorou'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Marshtomp}} starting at [[level]] 16, who evolves into {{p|Swampert}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Torchic}}, it is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] that can be chosen at the beginning of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], and [[Pokémon Emerald Version|Emerald]].

It is also available in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after obtaining all sixteen [[badge]]s and defeating {{ga|Red}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mudkip are small, blue, amphibious Pokémon with large heads, wide mouths, and orange, star-shaped external gills on their cheeks. They also have a fin on the top of their heads and a light-blue fin for a tail. They move around on all four legs, and have a light-blue underside.

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

====Special abilities====
Mudkip can use the fin on their heads to detect subtle changes in air and water currents, and can detect nearby bodies of water in this way. They can also detect danger. Like most Water-type Pokémon, Mudkip can {{m|Water Gun|shoot water}} from their mouths. When in water, Mudkip breathe using the gills on their cheeks. On land, they can powerfully {{m|Strength|lift large boulders}} by planting their four feet and heaving. If they are faced with a tight situation in battle, Mudkip will become strong enough to crush rocks bigger than themselves.

===Behavior===
Mudkip are more mellow than their evolutions, but are protective of their kind and because of their powerful strength they group up in numbers and easily overpower their foes. They have been known to be playful, especially in mud, as well. They sleep by burying themselves in soil at the water's edge. Their large tail fin propels them through water with powerful acceleration.

===Habitat===
[[File:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Mudkip and members of its evolution family dwell in swamps or other wetlands, deep inside isolated islands, because of their dislike of fresh water lakes and ponds. Soon after birth on beautiful beaches, they swim to swamps deep within islands. Very few have been known to hatch in swamps.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Brock Mudkip.jpg|thumb|left|{{TP|Brock|Mudkip|Marshtomp}} in the anime]]
Mudkip first appeared in ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road]]'', when {{an|May}} was asked to use a Pokémon to attack some {{p|Poochyena}}. Then, when May was asked to pick her [[starter Pokémon]], she didn't pick Mudkip after it refused to do what May asked.

A Mudkip was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

[[File:Mudkiphatching2.gif|right|thumb|A baby Mudkip hatching from an egg]]
{{an|Brock}} has a {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}} that he caught as a Mudkip in ''[[AG025|A Mudkip Mission]]'' Mudkip eggs were seen in the episode when [[Old Man Swamp]] offered to let Brock see one hatch, and Brock accepts his offer with enthusiasm. Next, a baby Mudkip is shown hatching from a Mudkip egg.

[[Nicholai]]'s Mudkip appeared in ''[[AG005|In the Knicker of Time!]]''.

During ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'', [[Nurse Joy]] asks {{Ash}} and [[Max]] to look over a {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}} and Mudkip while she wasn't there. The Mudkip of this group was very young and cried easily.

===Other===
A Mudkip appeared in ''[[AG033|Now That’s Flower Power!]]'' as a Pokémon in the Contest.

==In the manga==
In Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Ruby}} was attacked by {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Torchic}}, [[Professor Birch]] told him to look in his briefcase, to pick up the Poké Ball with a blue Pokémon and to throw it. The Poké Ball released a Mudkip and he nicknamed it [[Zuzu]]. At the beginning, Ruby was disappointed with it because it wasn't as attractive as his other Pokémon and it couldn't participate in any [[Pokémon Contest]]. He tried with different conditions and then he decided that [[Tough Contest]]s would be perfect for it. Zuzu eventually evolved into a {{p|Marshtomp}} and then into a {{p|Swampert}}.

In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Ginji's Rescue Team]] manga, [[Ginji]]'s partner and first friend is a cautious {{OBP|Mudkip|Ginji's Rescue Team}}.

===Origin===
This Pokémon is based on the {{wp|mudpuppy}} or {{wp|mudskipper}}, or also possibly an {{wp|axolotl}}.

====Name origin====
Mudkip's name is a combination of ''mud'' and ''skip'', and was probably chosen because it sounds like {{wp|mudskipper}}.

''Mizugorou'' is probably based on 水 ''mizu'', "water," and ムツゴロウ ''mutsugorō'', "mudskipper."

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Hydropi - Comes from a combination of ''hydro'' and ''mudpuppy''.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Gobou - From ''gober'' (to swallow) and ''boue'' (mud).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 물짱이 ''Muljjang-i'' - A combination of 물 (water) and 장이, a word that is similar to a suffix referring to a 'specialist' or 'professional'.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 水躍魚 ''Shuǐ Yuè Yú'' - Literally "Water jumping fish".

==Trivia==
* Morobareru, along with its pre-evolution, is similar to {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} in that it resembles a [[Poké Ball]].
** However, unlike Voltorb and Electrode, it only has a Poké Ball design on it, instead of being in the shape of one.
** Likewise, it features the whole design, complete with the circle resembling the button in the middle (contrary to Voltorb's evolution line having just the shape and general colors, and according to the Pokédex, being transformed Poké Balls themselves).
** Morobareru's {{Shiny}} form's coloration is reminiscent of that of the [[Master Ball]]. It shares this trait with {{p|Tamagetake|its pre-evolved form}}.
* Morobareru and its preevolution {{p|Tamagetake}} share their species name with {{p|Paras}}, {{p|Parasect}}, {{p|Shroomish}}, {{p|Breloom}}. They are all known as Mushroom Pokémon.
** These are also the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Spore}} via level-up, and the only Pokémon that can have the ability {{a|Effect Spore}} without having come from the {{pkmn|Dream World}}.
** In addition, all of the above Pokémon debut in an odd numbered generation: Paras and Parasect in Generation I, Shroomish and Breloom in Generation III, and Tamagetake and Morobareru in Generation V.
* Despite being based on a mushroom, Morobareru and its pre-evolution can learn and use {{m|SolarBeam}} and {{m|Synthesis}}. They share this degree of similarity with {{p|Vileplume}}, who is based on the ''{{wp|rafflesia}}'', which cannot perform photosynthesis, like the mushroom.
* Morobareru has the highest {{stat|HP}} among all {{type|Grass}} and {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on ''{{wp|Amanita muscaria}}'' or mushrooms of the ''{{wp|Agaricus}}'' genus, due to it being {{type2|Poison}}. Its cap and the shield-like arms were designed to look like the front of a Poké Ball.

====Name origin====
Morobareru is from もろ ''moro'' "completely" and ばれる ''bareru'' "to be found out" or "to come out".

'''Tentacruel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドククラゲ''' ''Dokukurage'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Tentacool}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Tentacruel are large, primarily blue jellyfish-like Pokémon. They have two large, red crystal spheres encrusted onto their upper bodies which can refract sunlight and can be used to store energy. The round lower body, from which Tentacruel’s eyes are visible, appears black in coloration, but it is possible the coloration was meant to stylistically represent a dark space. It can extend up to 80 tentacles out of its body, most of which are hidden, leaving up to 14 exposed. It has two blue beak-like appendages.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Its stings are known to cause excruciating pain. The red orbs on its body glow before lashing the vicinity with a harsh {{m|Supersonic|supersonic}} blast, the outburst causing rough waves around it. Tentacruel is able to use {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, {{m|BubbleBeam}} and {{m|Hydro Pump}}. As demonstrated in ''[[EP019|Tentacool and Tentacruel]]'', Tentacool have the ability to shoot laser beams from the gem in their head. Its evolution is able to control Pokémon it touches with its tentacles, but it is unknown if Tentacool have this ability.

===Behavior===

Tentacruel’s tentacles can be freely elongated and shortened, and can absorb water to stretch to some length. The tentacles are normally kept short, but on hunts, they are extended to ensnare and immobilize prey, weakening the prey by dosing it with a harsh toxin. The tentacles are extended in such a manner as to form an encircling poisonous net, which is difficult to escape from. Its red orbs glow when it grows excited or agitated, and it may alert others to danger by stridently flashing them.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon}}]]
Tentacruel can be found throughout the ocean, usually congregating in places where warm currents and cold currents come together, and where minerals are plentiful. They are common in [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Tentacruel can catch up to eighty prey at a time, one for each tentacle.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
*Tentacruel's original English name was "Man O War."
*Although it is stated to have eighty tentacles, only a little more than ten can often be seen.
*Despite what the Generation III and beyond Pokédex entry states, Tentacruel cannot learn {{m|Flash}}.
*The anime's [[Pokédex]] entry labeling Tentacruel as the "Gangster of the sea" could be a reference to its pose in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, which resembles the way of how a mob leader would cross his arms.
*In [[Pokémon.com]]'s online Pokédex, Tentacruel was randomly listed in the coding. It also mentioned {{t|Electric}}, possibly meaning that Tentacruel was originally to be part Electric-type., which could be due to its relation to a jellyfish.
* Tentacruel's {{v2|Crystal}} still sprite is different from that of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, making it one of few Pokémon to have three distinctly different sprites in [[Generation II]].
*Tentacruel has the highest Special Defense of all Poison-types.

===Origin===
Tentacruel is similar to the {{wp|Portuguese man o' war}}, which is not a jellyfish but a cluster of {{wp|polyp}}s. It also shares some characteristics of a {{wp|squid}}.
====Name origin====
Tentacruel's name is a combination of ''{{wp|tentacle}}'' and ''cruel''. ''Dokukurage'' literally means 毒水母, poison {{wp|jellyfish}}.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Tentoxa - Portmanteau of ''Tentakel'' (tentacle) and ''toxisch'' (toxic).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Tentacruel
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 독파리 ''Dokpari'' - From ''dok'' (poison) and ''haepari'' (jellyfish).
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 毒刺水母 ''Dú Cì Shuǐ Mǔ'' - Literally "Venomous sting jellyfish".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 多腳水母 - Literally "many feet jellyfish".

'''Meganium''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メガニウム''' ''Meganium'') is a {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Bayleef}} starting at [[level]] 32. It is the final form of {{p|Chikorita}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Meganium is a sauropod-like Pokémon. Instead of having a leaf coming out of its head, like its two previous forms, {{p|Chikorita}} and {{p|Bayleef}}, it has two stamen-like protrusions sprouting from the top of its nose, each tipped with its own anther. Also unlike its previous evolutions, its irises are yellow instead of red, and its feet have three toes instead of a single one. The leaves around its neck seem to have sprouted into a large pink flower, with a yellow central pattern and white tips. Meganium has also reverted back to the color it was as a Chikorita, whilst Bayleef's main body color had become a beige-yellow coloration.

====Gender differences====
A female Meganium has shorter antennae.

====Special abilities====
The aroma emanating from Meganium's petals soothes anyone that comes in contact with it. It calms aggressive feelings. In battle, Meganium uses this scent to calm its opponent and remove any desire for it to fight, giving it the upper hand. Meganium's breath has the power to revive dead grass and plants.

Since Meganium is a fully evolved Pokémon and the final evolution of a Grass-type [[starter Pokémon]], it can use {{m|Hyper Beam}}, {{m|Giga Impact}} and {{m|Frenzy Plant}}.

===Behavior===
Meganium appear to be a very benevolent and docile species. In ''[[AG161|Odd Pokémon Out]]'', Nurse Joy's Meganium was a peacemaker and tried to stop the battle between {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Grovyle}} and a {{p|Tropius}}. It was also shown that Meganium could heal Grovyle prior to the battle, however this may be isolated to {{type2|Grass}}s as Meganium is able to heal hurt or dead plants.

===Habitat===

===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[File:Meganium anime.png|200px|thumb|Meganium in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Casey's Meganium]]====
{{an|Casey}}'s {{p|Bayleef}} evolved into Meganium sometime before ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid!]]''.

====[[Vincent's Meganium]]====
{{Ash}}'s {{AP|Bulbasaur}} had a heated battle with [[Vincent]]'s {{TP|Vincent|Meganium}} in ''[[EP268|Tie One On!]]''. Vincent also used his Meganium to help save {{p|Raikou}} in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''.

====Other====

===Minor appearances===
An [[Officer Jenny]] from ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down!]]'' had Meganium on her squad.

In ''[[AG106|Beg, Burrow and Steal]]'', [[Elisa]] used her Meganium to stop a {{p|Donphan}} from chasing {{Ho|Hal}} and to help stop [[Team Rocket]] from stealing the {{p|Vibrava}}.

A [[Nurse Joy]] in ''[[AG161|Odd Pokémon Out]]'' had a Meganium, which became the object of affection for both {{AP|Ash's Grovyle|Sceptile}} and a wild {{p|Tropius}}.

A Meganium appeared in ''[[DP146|Dressed for Jess Success!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, {{adv|Crystal}}'s [[Megaree|Bayleef]] evolved into Meganium to protect {{adv|Gold}}, {{adv|Silver}}, and herself from {{p|Lugia}}. In this new stage, it was able to help the other two starters (who had also evolved) defend their trainers from this imminent threat and carried Crystal on its back with its increased speed and size, and then participated in the conclusive battle against the [[Masked Man]], revealed to be [[Pryce]], trying to take down the evil mastermind but being subdued by his nimble ice puppets and doing little good in the battle.

Much later, it is revealed to have learned the {{type|Grass}} ultimate attack, {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, between the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}} and {{chap|Emerald}}s, and helped destroy [[Guile Hideout]]'s humongous, fake Kyogre.

[[Kimberly]] also has a Meganium that she uses to demonstrate Frenzy Plant's destructive capacities with.

==Trivia==
* The pattern in Meganium's flower in the sprites of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} was different than the one in the official artwork and had only five petals. This was corrected in {{game|Crystal}}.
** In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Meganium appears to have a small ruff on its neck. This does not appear in later games.
* Meganium's evolutionary line contains the only [[starter Pokémon]], not including {{p|Pikachu}}, that keeps its Japanese name in English versions.
* Meganium shares the same base stats with {{p|Venusaur}}, just in a different order.
* Despite its Pokédex entries stating that it creates a fragrance that can calm emotions, Meganium and its pre-evolutions could not learn {{m|Sweet Scent}} by level-up until [[Generation IV]].

===Origin===
This {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} has the appearance of a {{wp|sauropod}}, particularly resembling an {{wp|apatosaurus}}, and its flowering counterpart to be a {{wp|Hibiscus}} or a {{wp|Titan arum}}.

====Name origin====
Meganium's name is a combination of ''mega'' and ''{{wp|geranium}}''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Meganie - From ''Mega'' and possibly ''Geranie'' (geranium).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Meganium
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 메가니움 ''Meganium''

The '''fifth generation''' of Pokémon, known by fans due to its version names as the '''monochrome generation''', is the fifth installment of the Pokémon series. Like previous generations, it begins with two games, {{game|Black and White|s}}, released as a pair, and will possibly later be joined by a [[version|third version]]. In an unprecedented move, Black and White were for the [[Nintendo DS]], the same as [[Generation IV]]'s five main series games.

A new [[region]] was introduced for this generation. The [[Unova]] region is known to be far away from the regions of previous generations. Unlike the past four, Unova is not based on a part of real world Japan, but draws inspiration from the {{wp|New York City metropolitan area}}.

The Generation V games are able to communicate with the five [[Generation IV]] games in the same way that the [[Generation III]] games can communicate with the Generation IV games, with players able to transfer Pokémon via a method similar to [[Pal Park]]. Pokémon caught in a Generation III game are able to move forward to Generation V by passing through Generation IV games.

Generation V occurs an unknown amount of time after [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]]. The {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} who stole the [[Machine Part]] appears, saying that while he had intended to revive Team Rocket upon returning home, he instead fell in love and had a son. Cynthia mentions visiting the [[Distortion World]] and being defeated by a {{ga|Lucas|young}} {{ga|Dawn|Trainer}} as Sinnoh League {{pkmn|Champion}}.

==Advances in gameplay==
Being the first games on the same console as their predecessors since [[Generation II]], the Generation V games enhance the Pokémon experience on the DS in several ways. Advancements introduced in Generation V include:
* The addition of 156 {{cat|Generation V Pokémon|new Pokémon}}, bringing the total to 649. No Pokémon from previous generations can be found in Unova itself until after the [[National Pokédex]] is obtained.
* The addition of 92 new [[move]]s, bringing the total to 559.
* The addition of 41 new [[Ability|abilities]], bringing the total to 164. Many older Pokémon are allowed to have new abilities, including some that were introduced in [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]], by transferring them from the [[Dream World]]. This effectively gives most Pokémon three legitimate abilities, rather than the two which have been standard since Generation III.
* Yet another region to explore, the [[Unova]] region, far away from the previous four and based on {{wp|New York City}}, rather than a region of Japan.
* A new [[villainous team]], [[Team Plasma]], whose goals include separating the worlds of Pokémon and humans to make a black and white world.
* [[Triple battle]]s and [[rotational battle]]s are now a part of gameplay, which are variations of battling like [[double battle]]s.
* The introduction of [[seasons]], which alternate every month.
* Expanded variance in camera placement, making the cities and towns of Unova more real and lifelike.
* Introduction of the [[High Link]], which allows players to visit each other in-game, rather than just inside of the Union Room.
* The new [[Pokémon Global Link]], which allows players to connect their games to the internet to view statistics or download some changes to the games, such as the design of the [[Pokédex]]. This also grants players access to the [[Pokémon Dream World]], where players may befriend Pokémon and send them over to their games.
* [[Weather conditions]] and the current [[time]] are now displayed on the bottom screen during battle when making selections as to what to do during the turn.
* One new variant of Poké Ball, the [[Dream Ball]], retaining the 25 found in previous games.
** The [[Apricorn]] Poké Balls and the [[Sport Ball]] are inaccessible without hacking and do not function as Poké Balls even if acquired; however, Pokémon caught in these Poké Balls in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} retain them when sent to a Generation V game. The [[Park Ball]] has been completely overwritten by the Dream Ball.
* Pokémon now move constantly throughout battle, with animations reminiscent of those of {{game|Crystal}}, rather than the two-sprite distortion method that has been the standard since {{game|Emerald}}. Differently from before, they don't stop moving. The speed in which Pokémon move changes as the {{stat|HP}} goes down and with status conditions.
* The back sprites of Pokémon show the Pokémon's body in full, with their poses and animations being the same as the front sprite, but seen from behind.
* The battle music changes under certain conditions. When one of the player's Pokémon on the battlefield has less than 25% of their HP, the music changes to a faster, more suspenseful music. When battling a Gym Leader's last Pokémon, the music also changes.
* In the Japanese version of the game, there is a {{wp|kanji}} mode, which when enabled, causes kanji to be used in game menus and text, in addition to the {{wp|hiragana}} and {{wp|katakana}} used in the previous four generations.

* A reduction in boxes in the [[Pokémon storage system]] from 18 to 8, giving players the ability to store only 240 Pokémon, the same as [[Generation I]]. Additional space is available once the player has placed one captured Pokémon in each of the 8 boxes, then receiving an additional 8 boxes for storage, bringing the total to 16. This cycle continues until the player finally has 24 boxes, for a storage total of 720 Pokémon.
* [[TM]]s have expanded to 95 from 92. Many of the 92 TMs found in Generation IV contain different moves.
** In addition, TMs are now able to be used an infinite number of times just like [[HM]]s.
*** When a Pokémon forgets a move in order to learn from a TM or HM, the move learned takes on the current {{PP}} of the move replaced by the new move. This is to prevent repeated usage of TMs and HMs for the purpose of PP restoration.
* HMs have been reduced from eight to six. The first four remain the same as during the first four generations; HM05 is now {{m|Waterfall}} and HM06 is now {{m|Dive}}.
* The expansion of the Key Item shortcut feature to include access to several menu screens. After being registered, the player can access a quick access menu by pressing the Y Button.
* While the framerate for the overworld is still 30, the framerate has been increased to 60 for battles, the title screen, and 2D menus. However, the opening only has a framerate of 15.

===Alterations from Generation IV===
* The abandonment of [[Pokémon Contests]] in favor of the [[Pokémon Musical]], a different type of competition which does not factor in a Pokémon's moves.
* Pokémon in the [[party]] can no longer [[walking Pokémon|follow the player outside of battle]].
* The {{type|???}} does not exist in this generation. {{m|Curse}} is now a {{type|Ghost}} move.

==Regions==
===Unova===
[[File:Unova.jpg|thumb|right|Unova]]
{{main|Unova}}
Like previous generations, another new region, the [[Unova]] region, is introduced in {{game|Black and White|s}}. Unlike the previous four regions, which are relatively close in respect to one another, Unova has been revealed to be distant from them, with the only way to travel between it and the other four being boat or airplane.
====Starter Pokémon====
The starters of the Unova region, like the starters of the previous four regions, follow the Grass-Fire-Water trio, with {{p|Snivy}} the {{type2|Grass}}, {{p|Tepig}} the {{type2|Fire}}, and {{p|Oshawott}} the {{type2|Water}}.

==Trivia==
* The Japanese logo of the Pokémon games was redesigned once again for Generation V's releases; the first logo was used in Generation I and [[Generation II]], and the second during [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]].
** The text for the English boxes also received a new design.
* Generation V introduces the most new Pokémon to the series, 156, five more than [[Generation I]] introduced.
* While [[Generation III]] did not introduce any new evolutions for old Pokémon (only introducing pre-evolutions {{p|Wynaut}} and {{p|Azurill}}), Generation V is the only generation so far that does not introduce any new evolutionary relatives of older Pokémon at all.
** This is also the first generation not to introduce any branched-evolution chains.
* This is the first generation not to introduce a new [[HM]] [[move]]—all six HMs in the game contain moves that have previously been available as HMs.
* This is the first generation since [[Generation II]] that does not occur at the same time as an earlier generation, as [[Generation III]] occurs simultaneously with [[Generation I]], and [[Generation IV]] occurs simultaneously with Generation II.
* This is the first generation since Generation I not to have any new [[baby Pokémon]].
* Generation V is the first generation to introduce two legendary trios (the [[Musketeer trio]] and the [[Kami trio]]) in addition to the new [[Tao trio|mascot trio]].
* Generation V is the only generation in which the player cannot visit [[Kanto]].
* Generation V is the first generation to debut in Europe before the United States, with a 2 day gap in the release dates.
* Generation V has the highest amount of Pokemon with [[signature moves]].

'''Reshiram''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レシラム''' ''Reshiram'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Fire}} [[legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Reshiram is the version mascot of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black]], appearing on the boxart. It is also the first of the [[Tao trio]], which exists in the legends of the [[Unova]] Region.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Reshiram is a white-colored, bipedal Pokémon of seemingly draconian and mammalian basis, with some of the avian features of feathers. Reshiram’s snout is mammalian in appearance, most resembling something vulpine or even canine. Streaming out from the upper side of the snout and outward from the head is a long, voluminous wispy mane, the top of which forms a spike or small head-crest of some sort. Reshiram’s face is fringed with spiky features, with one small, pointed extension of it below the chin.

Reshiram’s neck is long and slender, with a collar-esque protrusion of fur or feathers seeming held in place by two somewhat glass-like neck-bands, with similar bands present on the “wrists” of Reshiram’s forelimbs. Reshiram’s forelimbs are expansive, wing-like appendages or some unusual sort of wings themselves; the beginning portions of the limbs are slender and generally conventionally arm-like, but flare out into a more wing-like, feathered section farther on the limb, sporting four claws on the leading edge. On Reshiram’s chest is a feathered feature most similar in shape to a [[Silver Wing]], with the lower portion protruding outward to a point. Long feathers spread out from Reshiram’s thighs, its feet with large claws—three in front, and the one in the back positioned at an angle somewhat like high heels. Reshiram’s tail is a thick mass of a center-most plume and ribbon-like secondary extensions, surrounded by two large bands.

====Gender differences====
Reshiram is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
Reshiram has a jet engine-like tail used to accelerate itself when flying in high speeds. It can also store huge amounts of heat energy and unleashes it in one blast and its fire can burn everything into nothing. Reshiram is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Cross Flame}} and {{m|Blue Fire}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Reshiram and Zekrom units 2010.png|250x|thumb|Reshiram and Zekrom at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2010]]
* Reshiram was first revealed simultaneously alongside {{p|Zekrom}} on both the official English and Japanese Pokémon websites on May 28, 2010.
** This makes the two the first Pokémon simultaneously revealed worldwide.
** They are also the 499th and the 500th Pokémon revealed to Japanese audiences.
*In the Japanese versions of {{game|Black and White|s}}, Reshiram is known as the White Yang Pokémon.
* Due to being a {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon as well, Reshiram is the only {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon that is not weak to {{t|Water}}.
* Reshiram has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, and is tied with {{p|Rayquaza}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Dialga}} for highest Special Attack among {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.
* Reshiram has the highest base stat total of all {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, tied with {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and it has the highest base stat total of all Dragon-type Pokémon, tied with {{p|Rayquaza}}, {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Giratina}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.
* Reshiram is required to be caught in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black]] in order to progress on the story and battle [[N]]. Running away from it or defeating it will appear as if nothing happened; also, defeating it does not give any [[experience]] points.
**It and {{p|Zekrom}} are the only legendary Pokémon in the [[main series]] games that are required to be caught to progress the story.
* Due to its ability, which functions exactly as {{a|Mold Breaker}} does, no combination of types and abilities can be resistant to all of Reshiram's STAB attacks; without Turbo Blaze, Reshiram's Dragon/Fire STAB combo would be resisted by {{p|Heatran}}'s {{a|Flash Fire}} and {{t|Steel}} typing.
* Reshiram, as well as {{p|Zekrom}}, made an appearance along side {{p|Pikachu}} and a [[Poké Ball]] in 2010's {{wp|Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade}}.
* Reshiram and it's counterpart, {{p|Zekrom}}, are the only version mascots to have two [[signature moves]].

===Origin===
Reshiram and its counterpart {{p|Zekrom}} are based on the concept of {{wp|yin and yang}} in {{wp|Taoism}}. Appearance wise, it resembles a mix of animals, including a bird, a {{wp|canid}} such as a fox or a wolf, and a {{wp|Wyvern}}. The crest on its head and its feathers resemble smoke trails as well as white {{wp|fire}}, which can burn up to temperatures of 1,500 °C (2,730 °F). To further this connection with fire and combustion, its tail resembles a rocket engine or {{wp|afterburner}} .

====Name origin====
* Reshiram's name comes from the Japanese word 零 ''rei'' (zero) and 白む ''shiramu'', which means "turning white" or "growing light". May also be from 無 ''mu'', "nothing".

'''Zekrom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゼクロム''' ''Zekrom'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Electric}} [[legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Zekrom is the version mascot of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon White]], appearing on the boxart. It is also the second of the [[Tao trio]], which exists in the legends of the [[Unova]] Region.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Zekrom is a bipedal Pokémon of draconian and dinosaur-like basis. Zekrom is mainly a shade of dark gray, with darker patches on various portions of its body. It has red eyes and a small horn-like protrusion on the tip of its snout, with its head sporting a plume tipped with light-blue coloration. At the base of its neck is a black, stud-like feature, and atop its shoulders are similar, larger features resembling armor padding.The bases of its wings also have such padding, and a fanned, splayed, seemingly webbed shape with a small "wing-spike" on one edge. The lower length of Zekrom's arms extenuate into splayed, seemingly webbed, somewhat baseball-mitt-like formations, with three-clawed, dark-colored hands on the undersides. The front portion of Zekrom's waist is black-colored, with its belly and thighs having thin striations down their length. The knees are black, as are the foremost parts of its three-clawed feet and spiked heels. Zekrom's tail consists of large, round, conical and spiked formation, likened to an electricity generator, with a black inner portion and bands on the tip of the outside portion.

====Gender differences====
Zekrom is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
Zekrom is the only Pokémon known to learn {{m|Cross Thunder}} and {{m|Lightning Strike}}. It has a power generator that can be used to power up its tail and unleash powerful electrical energy, which causes several thunderstorms in one area.

==Trivia==
[[File:Reshiram and Zekrom units 2010.png|250x|thumb|Reshiram and Zekrom at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2010]]
* Zekrom was first revealed simultaneously alongside {{p|Reshiram}} on both the official English and Japanese Pokémon websites on May 28, 2010.
** This makes the two the first Pokémon simultaneously revealed worldwide.
** They are also the 499th and the 500th Pokémon revealed to Japanese audiences.
* On May 31, 2010, two weeks prior to the official revelation of Zekrom's [[elemental type|type]], [[Shōko Nakagawa]] spoke about her love of {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon on her blog and mentioned that this meant she wanted to get a Zekrom. This statement was then quickly removed.
*In the Japanese versions of {{game|Black and White|s}}, Zekrom is known as the Black Yin Pokémon.
* Zekrom is required to be caught in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon White]] in order to progress on the story and battle [[N]]. Running away from it or defeating it will appear as if nothing happened; also, defeating it does not give any [[experience]] points.
**It and {{p|Reshiram}} are the only legendary Pokémon in the [[main series]] games that are required to be caught to progress the story.
* Zekrom has the highest {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, single [[base stat]] and base stat total of all {{type|Electric}}. Tied with {{p|Rayquaza}}, {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Giratina}}, and {{p|Reshiram}}, it has the highest single base stat and base stat total of all {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.
**Zekrom and {{p|Rotom}}'s Mow form are the only known Pokémon that have a double resistance to {{t|Electric}}.
* Zekrom is the heaviest Pokemon introduced in Generation V.
* Zekrom, as well as {{p|Reshiram}}, made an appearance alongside {{p|Pikachu}} and a [[Poké Ball]] in 2010's {{wp|Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade}}.
* Zekrom is the only {{type2|Dragon}} that can learn {{m|Wild Bolt}}, but mainly because it is also an {{type2|Electric}}
* Zekrom and it's counterpart, {{p|Reshiram}}, are the only version mascots to have two [[signature moves]].
===Origin===
Zekrom and its counterpart {{p|Reshiram}} are based on the concept of {{wp|yin and yang}} in {{wp|Taoism}}. Appearance wise, it somewhat resembles a midsized to large theropod dinosaur, such as {{wp|Allosaurus}}, and a European {{wp|dragon}}. The crest on its head is a reference to thunderclouds and its tail resembles an electric generator.
====Name origin====
* Zekrom's name comes from the word "zero" and 黒む ''kuromu'', which means "turning black" or "tinged with darkness". May also be from 無 ''mu'', "nothing".

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Zekrom

'''Aggron''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ボスゴドラ''' ''Bossgodora'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Rock}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Lairon}} starting at [[level]] 42. It is the final form of {{p|Aron}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Aggron are huge, black and gray, monstrous bipedal Pokémon. They stand on their hind legs and may use their arms to attack opponents and pick things up. They have a thick, long, black tail that they can swing at enemies and they have large armor plating on their body and head. Their face and head is covered in gray armor, with the uppermost, pointed plate possessing two pairs of holes on its upper section, with horns protruding from the foremost holes. These horns, which it uses to dig tunnels through bedrock when seeking food, grow a little longer at a time and can be used to determine the individual Aggron’s age. Aggron’s forehead plating extends past their upper jaws in a small point. Like its pre-evolutions, Aggron has sky-blue eyes, and a nostril-like hole on the tip of its upper jaw. On the rim of its mouth are several pointed, fang-like protrusions, and the nape of its neck and back have gray-colored armor sections. Aggron have pointed black bands on their shoulders, and gray bands on their arms and legs.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Like {{p|Steelix}}, Aggron's only real special ability is its incredible defense, but it does have an imposing 110 base {{stat|Attack}} as well. Unlike other {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, {{type2|Fire}} attacks are not super effective on Aggron because it is part {{type2|Rock}}. Aggron also has many Dragon-like characteristics, and it can learn {{type2|Dragon}} moves such as {{m|Dragon Claw}}

===Behavior===
Aggron are very fierce and aggressive Pokémon. They claim entire mountains as their territory, patrolling it at all times and mercilessly beating up intruders. The gouges in its armor are apparently worn with pride as mementos from battles. If their environment is damaged by a flood or a forest fire, they will restore the area by bringing in topsoil and planting trees. Like many Pokémon (especially {{p|Kangaskhan}}), Aggron are very caring of their young and will defend them with their life.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Aggron live in mountainous habitats and will claim an entire mountain as their territory.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Much like their pre-evolutions, Aggron eat iron.

==Trivia==
* Despite being part {{type2|Rock}}, Aggron does not learn any Rock-type moves by leveling up. However, in HeartGold and SoulSilver, it learns {{m|Head Smash}} through breeding.
*Aggron can learn the [[signature move]]s of both {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Shieldon}}'s evolutionary families: {{m|Head Smash}} and {{m|Metal Burst}}, the former by breeding in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, and the latter by leveling up.
** Coincidentally, Aggron and its evolutionary family have many similarities to both {{p|Bastiodon}} and {{p|Rampardos}}. Aggron shares both types with {{p|Bastiodon}}, as well as similar movesets. {{p|Aron}} and {{p|Lairon}}, moreso than Aggron, look very similar to {{p|Shieldon}} and {{p|Bastiodon}}, walking on all four legs as well as having definitive metal plated heads. Aggron shares more of a resemblance to {{p|Rampardos}}, walking on two legs as well as having bands around the arms and legs. Aggron and {{p|Rampardos}} also have similar looking dome shaped, spiked skulls. These similarities could indicate that both {{p|Bastiodon}} and {{p|Rampardos}} were ancient relatives of the Aggron evolutionary family.
* Aggron is commonly mistaken as a [[pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon, due to it being commonly seen as fearsome as a {{p|Tyranitar}} or something of the sort in the anime.
* With {{a|Heavy Metal}}, Aggron is the third heaviest Pokémon, only surpassed by {{p|Groudon}} and Altered-forme {{p|Giratina}}.
**As it is the heaviest Pokémon that can learn it, {{m|Heavy Bomber}} is most potent with Aggron.
**This makes it the heaviest {{t|Steel}}-type, {{t|Rock}}-type, and non-[[legendary Pokémon]].

===Origin===
It may be based on a ''{{wp|Triceratops}}'' (a type of {{wp|dinosaur}}), or on a samurai armor.
====Name origin====
Aggron's name is a combination of ''aggressive'' and ''{{wp|iron}}''.

''Bossgodora'' may be a combination of the English words ''boss'' and ''dragon''. It is more likely a combination of ''boss'' and a corruption of ''kodora'', the Japanese name for {{p|Lairon}}, indicating that Aggron is a larger and meaner version of it's pre-evolution.

==In other languages==

([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウォーグル''' ''Wargle'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]].

It evolves from {{p|Washibon}} starting at level 54.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Wargle is an eagle-like Pokémon, sporting red, navy, yellow and blue coloration. Its face is blue, its beak is yellow, and the cere above it is blue. There is a dark red, three-pointed crest above the cere, from which extend three feather plumes; additionally, there are other, similar plumes present on the sides of Wargle's face. Along with the feathery "mane" on the back of its head and neck, all these features have been described to give the impression of a feathered headdress. Wargle's back and the upper sides of its wings are dark red, with the undersides of both being navy-colored. There are spiky feathers on the upper portions of Wargle's large yellow talons, with the talons possessing black nails and an arrangement of three in front and one in back. Its tail feathers are mainly red, with a yellow stripe and blue tipping.
====Gender differences====
Wargle is a male-only species. Its female counterpart is {{p|Barujiina}}.

===Special abilities===
Wargle, like most other bird-like Pokémon, learn a multitude of wind-based moves, as well as many aerial attacks. They are uncommonly strong, and can easily fly while gripping an automobile in its talons. This strength shows through in Wargle's ability to learn attacks that might seem unusual for a bird Pokémon, such as {{m|Rock Slide}} and {{m|Shadow Claw}}. Their agility and gracefulness in flight is truly a spectacle to behold.
===Behavior===
Heedless of danger, Wargle fights fearlessly and relentlessly. They are very courageous, as evidenced by its species name as the "Valor Pokémon." They also seem to have a strong flock dynamic, fighting without pause to protect their friends and family. It is said that the more wounds it has, the more respect it gets from its comrades.
===Habitat===
Wargle live in rugged, mountainous habitat and around gorges. They are also found in areas by water.

==Trivia==
*Wargle can be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Barujiina}}: Both are dual-typed Flying Pokémon that are described as eagles, are members of a two-stage evolutionary family who evolve from their basic form at level 54 and have a stat total of 510. They are both also members of a single-gender species (Wargle is exclusively male, whereas Barujiina is exclusively female). Their movesets are also substantially similar, sharing the same number of start moves and level-up moves, with all of their level-up moves occurring at the same levels.
*Wargle's shiny form may be a reference to the two main political parties of the United States: red for the Republican Party and blue for the Democratic Party.

===Origin===
Wargle is based on an {{wp|eagle}}, specifically a {{wp|Bald Eagle}}. It also has feathers on its head that resemble a {{wp|war bonnet}} and the crest of a {{wp|Philippine Eagle}}. Its color scheme and basis suggest it is inspired by the {{wp|United States of America}}, the flag of which is red, white and blue, and the national symbol of which is the bald eagle. It also resembles a {{wp|Native American}} warrior.

====Name origin====
''Wargle'' is derived from {{wp|war}} or {{wp|warrior}} and {{wp|eagle}}.
