==Glaciate==
Kyurem actually did use Glaciate. On here, it says Glaciate is a more powerful version of Icy Wind. Kyurem blew a wind at Ash before he attacked with Dragon Pulse. I believe the blast of wind was Glaciate. ~Yveltal-Lugia

== Brawly's Hariyama's gender ==

This has been bugging me for a while. Was Hariyama's gender confirmed to be male officially in Pokémon Adventures? I saw it placed on its own article and on Brawly's page before it disappeared/got removed. Not saying that you did it or anything, I was just asking you as you may know about this. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 04:37, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

== BW090 ENG dub and Jessie's Wobbuffet's gender ==
They didn't feature the [[Who's That Pokémon?]] segment in the English dub for an unknown reason. I know Garchomp was chose to this one, just like in Japan, but I can't edit it until they show it again in future airings. It's [[Garchomp]] for sure! Even if they show it again, I swear it'll be a Garchomp. And Jessie's Wobbuffet is a male, I discovered its gender, it doesn't wearing a lipstick on its mouth. Pikachu65 14:40, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
:That doesn't confirm anything. Wobbuffet existed before Gender differences. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 14:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Right. It does make sense. Pikachu65 15:43, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

== Trivia on {{m|Giga Drain}} ==
Why isn't the fact that [[Paul]] is the only one who has commanded the use of Giga Drain notable in Paul's page or the Giga Drain page? [[Special:Contributions/Mikoro|I am]] [[User:Mikoro|Mikoro]] ([[User talk:Mikoro|wanna talk?]]) 13:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
:Because it isn't notable at all. Pointing out that only one person's Pokemon has used a move is unnecessary. He's not even the only one to do that. Nurse Joy's the only Trainer with a Pokemon to use Minimize, but it's not on the trivia. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 13:30, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
::I don't see the point in not putting it. I agree, it's not vitally important, but it is a fact and deserves to be known by others. Until you give me a good enough reason why it should not be included, I will not drop the subject. That includes Nurse Joy's using {{m|Minimize}}. [[Special:Contributions/Mikoro|I am]] [[User:Mikoro|Mikoro]] ([[User talk:Mikoro|wanna talk?]]) 14:45, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
:::It's redundant. There is no point stating in the trivia section information which becomes obvious when looking at the list of Pokémon that have used the move in the anime. If we allowed this kind of trivia, the trivia sections would be twice as long as the rest of the article and no-one would read them because of that. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 18:37, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

== Minor request ==

Hey Ataro, I saw from your tags that you're a Pokémon Colosseum/Pokémon XD/Generation III/Generation IV/Generation V player. I would like to request something relevant to the [[Poké Transfer]] page... currently, the location data for Pokémon from Orre is empty... I'm pretty sure it's "a faraway place" as seen in Pal Park, but could you confirm that this is also the case for Poké Transfer? Thanks in advance!!

== Volume 15 cover ==

Okay I really don't want to get into any arguments, and especially no edit wars. Why did you delete the picture I uploaded onto the Volume 15 page? That's the recently released Volume 15 cover from Viz and this site uses Viz's cover for the page pictures over all others. [[User:Arceus101|Arceus101]] ([[User talk:Arceus101|talk]]) 02:29, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
:Because I already uploaded that pic two days ago. It may not look like here on the Pedia, but that's because it takes a while for it to change here. Check on the Archives to see it. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 02:33, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

== Al and Harry controversy ==

Okay let's not get into any edit wars here and try to solve this out (I was confused too when I saw what I did). The ponytail guy serves under Koga because he uses poison-types in Yellow and GSC chapter and he captured Articuno for Koga to use. The non-ponytail guy uses psychic types in Yellow and GSC and he controlled Moltres which was Sabrina's bird. The thing that confused me and it looks like it's confusing you too is how ponytail seems to be controlling Girafarig in GSC. But look again at the Yellow chapter where the Elite trio appeared and look at the flow chart where it depicts those three serving under the gym leaders. Ponytail dude is shown with Koga and the other dude is shown with Sabrina. I checked with the guys on Serebii forum and we came to the conclusion that the writers made a big mistake by switching Al and Harry between Yellow and GSC and they sorta cleared it up on the official site by not really giving Girafarig a definite owner. Oh and let me point out that your edit on the TRET page makes a contradiction. It lists ponytail guy as having the Pokemon that the non-ponytail guy had in the Moltres chapter. Look closely. Do you see what I'm saying? [[User:Arceus101|Arceus101]] ([[User talk:Arceus101|talk]]) 06:00, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

:: Look, I don't know what Kusaka is doing, but what I do know is that [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v103/Coronis/GioPryce_zpsc930b9de.jpg this page] quite explicitly states that dark hair = Ken, spiky hair = Al, and ponytail = Harry.

::: Yes I know that ponytail is Harry and spiky hair is Al. But what I'm saying is that it looks like Kusaka might have switched Al and Harry in the GSC chapter because Al is using poison-types and Harry is using psychic-types. And you're listing Harry's Pokemon in the RBG chapter under Al's profile and vice-versa. [[User:Arceus101|Arceus101]] ([[User talk:Arceus101|talk]]) 18:04, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

== Pokémon Adventures volume 43 ==

Have you got access to it yet? Basically wondering about those rounds if they are in the same order as [[ABW01]]-[[ABW04]] if so we can at least move those four pages I think.

== Regarding Ninfia ==

I think you should also lock the one with the title "Ninfeon" as well, just in-case any fans may create a speculation page on an English name that hasn't officially been announced by The Pokémon Company International.

Just wanted to let you know!

== [[PS461]] - [[PS464]] ==

Hey Ataro, those four rounds have titles that are "VS Whatever" listed as the English title. Where did those titles come from? Like are they from that suspected VIZ Media volume coming soon or what? Just wondering... [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 01:27, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

:::Okay, that's fine. Just so you know I will be moving the VIZ Media round titles back to the top alongside the "VS. Whatever" titles, since they are from the official English version I would prefer them at the top rather than a trivia line. Let me know if there's any problems, thanks. [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 22:33, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
::::Well, saying that they're from the VIZ Media translation implies that they used those titles for the volume 43 version, even though they haven't translated that version yet.

:::::tbh that isn't the assumption i would have come to, though i do understand your point now. my concern is that volume 43 being released doesn't suddenly erase the mini-volumes. i'm getting so frustrated trying to make sense of all this u__u first of all, what do you know about [http://www.amazon.ca/Pokémon-Adventures-Black-White-Vol/dp/142155898X/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1361142226&sr=8-1-fkmr0 this one]? is it {{tt|a volume-sized compilation of the mini-volumes|sounds dumb to me}} or do you think it's a translation of volume 43? that's another reason i'm hesistant, but no matter what, Chuang Yi is eventually going to get to volume 43 anyway and whatever else and there are differences between the Japanese volume versions and the Japanese magazine versions and and and *brain shorts out* long story short, I'd be comfortable with "Pokémon Black and White volume 1 version" for now since that seems like the middle ground. :P [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 23:13, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

:I fail to see how the image is better. 1) The scene looked bad. Gible being attacked by a Gyro Ball? That's not very good. 2) Look at image closer, then you'll see that it's even blurrier than the previous image. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 00:20, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
::You would rather have it stay as a '''little''' better quality but a more awkward picture than a '''little''' worse quality but a less awkward picture? I think Shuckle being bit in the ass is very weird, but Gible facing an incoming attack is a lot less weird. Look, you're an administrator, I'm not. You make the rules. If you really want the picture to stay so awkward, I have no right to argue. However, I just want to make sure you understand that the one I uploaded bypasses the current one in terms of awkwardness by a long shot.

I've been working in creating redirects for the Manga chapters of Pokémon Adventures and I've been using the list of rounds to do so. But in the HGSS Chapter list says that the round [[PS444]], who is called "VS Togepi" in the original, is called "VS Dragonite" and several others since Platinum chapter have these Japanese-Original titles even though that japanese are original.

== Question regarding merchandise articles ==

I had been planning to make an article concerning Bandai's D-Arts line of highly-articulated Pokémon collectibles, which would require the uploading of images. Will my account work on the Archives, or do I need to make a separate account? Also, as I am a stickler for image sourcing and licensing, what is the image policy regarding the upload of promotional images? Is there a sourcing template? If not, I intend to list the source of any image I upload in some fashion similar to what I am used to on Wookieepedia, and I would like to know if such sourcing is permissible.

Also, when adding citations and references to articles, as I had not been able to find an example, do you use the {{tl|reflist}} template? Or do you have a different referencing protocol?

In regards to a product article, I had seen various examples, but they were short and vague, with only a few articles going into any sort of specific product detail. What I intend to cover in the article are details concerning product release and distribution, price range, and some details on the figures themselves, mainly the articulation. As I only own one of the figures, the primary example for most of those details will be the Mewtwo figure. Any details concerning the Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur figures will be gleaned from product descriptions on Amazon, and through my various sources. Is there a specific format for merchandise articles? SnorlaxMonster said that there was not, and most articles that I've seen follow only a basic format of short description, followed by a gallery.

I wish to double-check this before I begin drafting up the article, as I want to make sure that I am doing it correctly. Thanks. [[User:Trak Nar|Trak Nar]] ([[User talk:Trak Nar|talk]]) 19:03, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

I noticed that an article for Grimsley's Bisharp was created but with very little info on the manga side. Do you think the article should stay or not? [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 18:21, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
:No. Not at all. There's nothing notable about it. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 18:30, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

==Opinion on something==
In my copy of the recent release for Ruby and Sapphire, Ruby's Castform is not given a nickname. One shred of evidence is that during the part between listings it is just listed as Castform. This is shown once in that book. Should the change be made on the page for Ruby's team? If you want to wait until the beginning of September when the next book comes out I am willing to wait until then for more evidence to pop up. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 00:44, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
:Yes, I'm aware of that. No. It stays as Popo (we do this for Blasty, who doesn't have a Viz nickname either). They probably didn't put a nickname because it doesn't really make much sense for it to have one because Ruby was last seen unconscious. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 00:51, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

:Okay. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 00:58, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

== You win. ==

You made me leave JB's Gallery, and now you're forcing me to leave Bulbapedia. I love this place, and what it can do to Pokémon fans, is your rejoice in treating people like inferiors so huge you need to do this to me? This is the only place left in the internet where I could work for the Pokémon fandom, what I wanted since I was little.

Maybe it's good for me, now that I'm grown, one less responsibility, so I can go take care of my life. Could you at least don't ruin the pages I created/extended, i. e. Pokédex holder, Blind boy and Variant Pokémon?

Congratulations, Lolipiece! You're ruling as the one of the biggest bastards I ever met. [[User:Duke R|'''|) u |( e''']] [[User talk:Duke R|'''®''']] 17:20, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

__NOTOC__
==How I met Generation I==
Watching the episode ''The Ninja Poké-Showdown'' at the age of 9, Duke R met all the elements that would addict him to Pokémon:
* Characters. Psyduck made the Duke laugh from the moment he saw it.
* Pokédex. A device containing data of each one of 150 different creatures. For a collector, that's paradise.
* Evolution. To see Koga's Venonat evolving into Venomoth was deliriously amazing!
* Battles. All the special powers from the attacks were fantastic!
* Gym Badges. To be rewarded for your victories, something that everyone needs in life.
* Team Rocket. How can you dislike them? (In Season 1.)

From this day on, your Highness's mind was abducted to this world where everything is possible, you can leave your home in search of a prosperous life, and your partners will never leave you alone.

==How I met Generation II==
At the same year, the first Generation II Pokémon that Duke R met was Togepi. It made no difference to him though, as he thought it was between the first 151 he met.

When the Duke bought his first Pokémon magazine, the Generation II Pokémon were being revealed and the thought of 100 brand new monsters, like Hinoarashi or Tsubotsubo, made him believe that maybe this perfect world would not end so fast. Addiction grown larger.

==How I met Generation III==
The same Pokémon magazine now revealed the first three Generation III Pokémon. The issue of March, 2011 presented Kakureon, Ruriri and Hoeruko, the new Pokémon that would be featured in Pokémon 4ever's short film. With 135 new Pokémon, addiction became sickness.

==How I met Generation IV==
May, 2004. Serebii.net announced the first Generation IV Pokémon, Gonbe. So early, so cute. At the PokéCommunity forums, Duke R changed his signature to a picture of the new Pokémon followed by a button. On it was written "Go! Laxbe!" and, when clicked, a window would pop up with the text: "If KabiGON = SnorLAX, so GONbe = LAXbe; and Laxbe is the opposite of "be lax", because it does not sleep, it eats."
[[File:446Munchlax DP anime.png|thumb|left|150px|Laxbe]]
From this day on, many PokéComumunity users started to think that its English name had been released, and called it Laxbe. Searching on Google, the Duke could find sites from the United States, Poland, Mexico and even from his own country, Brazil, among others, revealing Laxbe as Gonbe's official name.

The same site that revealed the new Pokémon, had to post a note asking people to stop saying this name was true, since it was fake. The confusion was over.

==How I met Generation V==
For the first time, Duke R didn't meet the new Pokémon through a magazine or a website. After seeing Zoroark and Zorua (with disappointment) at PokéBeach, and all the subsequent Pokémon that leaked until the release of the Black and White Versions, the Duke decided to meet the remaining 95 Pokémon by playing the games.

This experience was unique and made Generation V one of his favorites, as the Pokémon look much like the ones from Generation I.

'''Bianca''' (Japanese: '''ベル''' ''Bel'') is a supporting character of the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Character==
Bianca is a newly starting out Pokémon Trainer along with her two friends, {{adv|Black}} and {{adv|Cheren}}. She and Cheren are well acquainted with [[Professor Juniper]] and were the ones who recommended him to be the third Unova [[Pokédex holder]] despite her having never met the boy before. She is described as a girl who goes about in her own pace and is prone to impulsive actions that can get her and those around her in trouble.

==History==
===Past===
[[File:Bianca young Adventures.png|thumb|left|180px|Bianca at age five]]
Bianca and Cheren have been friends with Black since they were small children despite the fact that Black lived in a different town from them. As they played together, Black gained interest in beating the Pokémon League and subsequently dragged Bianca and Cheren into doing it as well.

==={{chap|Black & White}}===
Bianca, along with Cheren, first appears in front of Black's house where they witness the aftermath of the fight involving Professor Juniper's {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}}. While Professor Juniper shows her anger over the fight between the starters and the Pokédexes that Black had dropped into a puddle, Bianca gives Cheren the Snivy, stating that it resembled him, and takes Oshawott for herself.

[[File:Black Cheren Bianca Gym Battle.png|thumb|240px|Black, Bianca, and Cheren in their first Gym battle]]

They all chase after the missing Tepig and find Black trying to rescue it from a tree. When Black is attacked by an unknown Pokémon, Bianca and Professor Juniper listen to Cheren's explanation about Black's abilities with his [[Musha]] and they witness him defeat the Pokémon, a {{p|Sewaddle}}, and fly off. They are all shocked to find out that the Pokédexes that Black had accidentally dropped into the water no longer work.

Next, Bianca and Cheren have a brief sparring match with their new Pokémon which ends with Bianca getting hit by her Oshawott and attacking Cheren in anger. Cheren explains his and Bianca's history with Black to Professor Juniper and they decide to go tell him about his Pokédex being the only working one. Just as they leave, Bianca's father tries to stop her from leaving but Bianca refuses to listen to him.
[[File:Bianca Adventures.png|thumb|left|100px|Bianca in the {{chap|Black & White}}]]
Sometime later, after losing a battle to a wild {{p|Audino}}, Bianca and Cheren reach [[Striaton City]] to find Black. They manage to find him in a restaurant where Bianca mistakes him being on a date with {{adv|White|a girl}}. After the girl leaves, Bianca and Cheren meet up with Black who explains his situation to them. Soon after, they are introduced to the Gym Leaders of the restaurant/Gym, [[Cilan]], [[Cress]], and [[Chili]].

When Black's Gym battle starts, Bianca interferes with the challenge when she attempts to solve the Gyms puzzle, only to get it wrong by saying that {{type|Fire}} is strong against {{type|Water}}. When Black tries to get her to stay out of his challenge, Bianca retaliates by sending her Oshawott to attack his Tep which causes Cheren's Snivy to attack them in order to stop their fighting. After Cheren defends Bianca, Chili tells them that because of Bianca's interference, Black is disqualified from challenging the Gym.

Luckily for Black, it turned out that Chili was only kidding and he lets Bianca and Cheren take on the Gym as well due to it being a good learning experience for Bianca. After this, Black decides to teach Bianca about Pokémon type compatibility by using her Oshawott as an example of which types are super effective and not very effective to {{type|water}} Pokémon. As they go through the Gym, Bianca learns about type compatibilities, the starters start to get along, and they finally reach the Gym Leaders.

At first, the Gym Leaders have the advantage in the battle but by using strategy, Bianca, Black, and Cheren manage to rack up some damage against the Gym Leaders' Pokémon. Eventually, Bianca has her Oshawott block an attack from [[Cilan's Pansage]] and then has it attack [[Chili's Pansear]] with its [[scalchop]], defeating it in the process. Immediately after, Oshawott is defeated by Pansage, leaving Tep as the only Pokémon left to fight Cilan and Cress's Pansage and {{p|Panpour}}. Despite nearly being defeated by Panpour, Tep manages to feed Oshawott and Snivy some of Pansage's leaves, rejuvenating them and allowing their Trainers to win the match 3-2 when the Gyms time limit runs out.

Bianca, Cheren, and Black then receive their Badges from the Striaton Gym Leaders. Afterwards, Bianca and Cheren are given a Xtransceiver from Black in order to keep in touch with him. After this, White comes back and introduces herself to Bianca and Cheren while advertising her [[BW Agency]]. After the two groups go their separate ways, Bianca and Cheren realize they didn't get Black's Xtransceiver number and run off to find him.

Bianca is later seen walking through the streets of [[Castelia City]] with her new Pokémon, {{p|Litwick}}, while looking for Black so she can obtain his Xtransceiver number. She is knocked unconscious by an {{p|Amoonguss}} while its Trainer, a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}, kidnaps her Litwick. Iris later finds the unconscious Bianca and easily deduces what happened and reports it to [[Burgh]] who just finished his Gym match against Black. The three of them along with White head to Team Plasma's hideout after Black's newly evolved [[Buoh|Pignite]] follows the scent and they rescue Litwick and the other Pokémon Team Plasma had captured.

After arriving in [[Anville Town]], White finds a depressed Bianca playing music with the help of her Pokémon. Bianca reveals that during her entire journey, she has been avoiding her overprotective father, and because of this, she hasn't improved her skills in battling. To cheer her up, White takes Bianca to Café Sonata to help her try out performing music. To their horror, they find that the place has been attacked by a wild {{p|Vullaby}}.

They quickly find out that the Vullaby is pursuing the mythical Pokémon {{p|Meloetta}} and ransacked the place while chasing it. In order to help, Bianca takes the guitar of a musician and helps Meloetta remember the move {{m|Relic Song}}. This allows Meloetta to transform into its Pirouette Forme and defeat the Vullaby, which is soon captured by White. Afterward, Bianca decides to give up her Pokémon journey and become Professor Juniper's assistant. When [[Cedric Juniper]] comes to deliver Bianca her fixed Pokédex, Bianca decides to give it to White.

==={{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}===
In the ''Black 2 & White 2 chapter'', Bianca is called to [[Aspertia City]] at Cheren's request. She presents two Pokédexes to [[Rakutsu]] and [[Faitsu]] for winning the small tournament with their classmates to determine the best Trainers between them. Although Faitsu is reluctant at first, she takes the Pokédex after some coaxing from Rakutsu.

'''Ruby''' (Japanese: '''ルビー''' ''Ruby'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]]. As a counterpart to {{adv|Sapphire}}, Ruby has a great passion for [[Pokémon Contest]]s. While he's an excellent battler, he only fights when necessary or when no one takes notice. He believes that Pokémon battles are barbaric, and get his Pokémon dirty — something that he does not like.

His first Pokémon were {{p|Skitty}}, {{p|Poochyena}}, and {{p|Ralts}}, all given by his father [[Norman]]; his "starter" Pokémon was a {{p|Mudkip}} which he received from [[Professor Birch]].

For his skills, he is given the title of '''"[[Pokémon Contest|Charmer]]"''' (魅せる者 ''Charmer'').

Ruby has admitted to having a crush on his rival, Sapphire.

==Personality==
Ruby's extremely good at sewing and knitting. He makes clothes for all his Pokémon to wear, and even made Sapphire the clothes she wears for much of her adventures. He is shortsighted and wears contacts to correct his eyes as he is too vain to wear glasses. His other hobby is photography. He has a photo album of all of his Pokémon's biggest moments - such as evolutions or Contest victories. He's not shy about showing it off, either. He is constantly lying to Sapphire about not being powerful enough, but then, his secret is revealed when he tries to save Sapphire from the Grumpig stampede.

Ruby can be quite shallow at times, putting too much emphasis on outward appearances. After going through character development, he managed to learn that appearances aren't the only thing that makes one beautiful.

==Character history==
{{Spoilers}}
===Past===
[[File:Young Ruby Adventures.png|thumb|Ruby, 5 years before the Ruby & Sapphire Chapter]]
Ruby was born in [[Goldenrod City]], Johto. His father was [[Norman]], who was an aspiring Gym Leader. He met Sapphire once, and the young Ruby and Sapphire had a lot of fun with each other, until their fun was interrupted by a {{p|Salamence}}. Acting quickly, Ruby was able to knock it out with his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but got his forehead split open in the process. It was his fault that his father failed the Gym Leader Test because the Salamence broke into Rayquaza's containment area and set it free. At that time, Rayquaza was being held by the Pokémon Association near the place he and Sapphire were playing. Sapphire ran away crying, and later came to realize she ruined Ruby's dignity, and vowed to become stronger. Ruby, on the other hand, realized he had been too brutal, and promised to suppress his strength in battle.

==={{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}===
[[File:Ruby RS chapter.png|thumb|left|250px|Ruby in the Ruby and Sapphire chapter]]
On Ruby's eleventh birthday, He and his mother moved to [[Littleroot Town]], [[Hoenn]]. Ruby was displeased with this decision as he preferred [[Johto]]'s modern cities over Hoenn's rural countryside. After getting to the small town, Ruby ran away as he didn't want to face his father, who didn't approve of Ruby's hobby of competing Pokémon Contests. Just as he left the town, he met [[Professor Birch]], who was attacked by two {{p|Mightyena}}. Ruby refused to battle, stating his reason was because he didn't want his Pokémon dirty. Instead, he asked the two Dark types to join him on his quest to conquer the Contests of Hoenn. However, they started to chase him. Ruby still didn't fear them and instead picked up Birch's nearby Pokédex and used it to learn about Mightyena.

Amazed by the fact that the Mightyena were evolved, he sent out his [[Nana]], a {{p|Poochyena}}, and showed off her elegant moves against the stronger Pokémon. However, the attacks did no damage and Ruby and Birch were forced to run from the wild Pokémon. Due to the [[Running Shoes]] that had been given to him by his parents for his birthday, Ruby got ahead of Birch and fell off a cliff and was knocked unconscious. Fortunately, a mysterious {{adv|Sapphire|Pokémon}} caught him and brought him into its cave.

Ruby was soon awakened by the lick of Nana. Upon waking up, he received a call on Professor Birch's [[Pokégear]] from the researcher himself. Ruby explained where he was and Birch introduced himself formally. During the conversation, Ruby realized that Birch was a friend of his father but the man didn't know that the boy had run away yet.

The Pokémon then noticed that Ruby was awake and spoke to him. Shocked, Ruby backed up in fear and Nana attacked it. The Pokémon then revealed itself to be a human girl. She attacked Nana with her {{p|Torchic}}. In order to help the boy, Birch told him to take out the {{type|Water}} Pokémon {{p|Mudkip}} out of his bag. Ruby was disappointed by the lack of coolness and beauty in the Pokémon, but also stated that it could be in a tough Contest. Ruby refused to battle, which angered the girl. It was at that point that Birch realized that it was his daughter {{adv|Sapphire}} that Ruby was fighting. As Birch explained this to Ruby, the reception between the two was lost. Moments later, the two children were attacked by a {{p|Seviper}}.

Ruby still refused to fight, forcing Sapphire to defeat the Tail Snake Pokémon all by herself. After this the two got into an argument over their interests, which made Sapphire ask Ruby to take a bet. The two would go on a journey and see who would reach their goals in 80 days. Ruby agreed and then Sapphire fainted from the damage that she received from the battle with the Mightyena. Realizing the girl was hurt, Ruby helped her and left her some new clothes. Before he left, the Seviper awakened, but Ruby released a mysterious light from a Poké Ball and the Seviper fell to the floor.

After leaving the cave, Ruby came to a bridge, where he showed his new Mudkip how to perform in a Contest. When he had the Water-type try for itself, they were attacked by a {{p|Dustox}}. He and his [[party]] ran away and Ruby noticed that he had accidentally forgotten to give back Birch's Pokédex. The machine then scanned the {{type|Bug}} and Ruby learned that it was incredibly powerful. However, Mudkip saved them with his {{m|Water Gun}} and Ruby nicknamed it [[Mumu]]. He then set off yet again.

The next day, Ruby arrived in [[Petalburg City]]. He headed through the city carefully so that he wouldn't be found by his father. However, he came across a sickly boy named {{adv|Wally}}, who had been attacked by a {{p|Nuzleaf}} while trying to catch a Pokémon. After receiving a compliment from the other boy, Ruby quickly offered to try to catch a Pokémon for him. However, Ruby learned that his dad was coming to help Wally do the task.

Upon seeing his father come, Ruby grabbed Wally and jumped into a nearby bush. Wally, however, came out and asked Norman if he would help him catch a Pokémon but the Gym Leader said that he wouldn't because Wally was too ill to journey with one. Although his father nearly caught him, Ruby was able to stay hidden, but when he came out of hiding he found Wally unconscious on the ground.

Ruby took the sick boy home and that night the two left home and Ruby promised to let Wally use his {{p|Ralts|Rara}} in order to catch a Pokémon. The two found a {{p|Kecleon}}, which Wally was determined to catch. Although Wally failed to catch it many times, Ruby stuck by him and was given a [[PokéNav]] as thanks. After Wally caught Kecleon, the area they were in was struck by an earthquake and Ruby fell into the sea. Thankfully though, he was saved by [[Mr. Briney]], who took him to [[Dewford Island]].

After arriving on Dewford, he once again met up with Sapphire and went into the [[Granite Cave]] in order to find the powerful, yet beautiful Water-type Pokémon {{p|Milotic}}. However, he instead found a bunch of {{p|Mawile}}. He, however, was saved by [[Steven Stone]]. During the battle with the Mawile, Ruby's Nana and [[Kiki]] evolved. After the battle, Ruby left the Island by riding Sapphire's {{p|Wailord|Lorry}}. One night, they stopped at the [[Abandoned Ship]] on {{rt|109|Hoenn}}. There, Ruby and Sapphire teamed up with a {{p|Plusle}} and a {{p|Minun}} to fight [[Team Magma]]. After this fight, the two Trainers left the {{t|Electric}} types behind.

Soon, Ruby was let off Lorry at [[Slateport City]]. There, his Mumu evolved into {{p|Marshtomp}}, which attracted the notice of the Hoenn [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]], who took Ruby to the Contest Hall, where they made Poké Blocks with [[Captain Stern]] before being taken away by Team Magma, who was targeting Stern. Ruby fought against [[Blaise]] in the ''Submarine Explorer 1'' in order to free the Chairman and Stern.

After winning, he drifted away from Slateport and landed on {{rt|118|Hoenn}}, where he caught a {{p|Feebas}} before being attacked by a {{p|Zangoose}} and a {{p|Seviper}}. Ruby and the Swimmer that he had befriended escaped into the [[Weather Institute]], where Ruby was found by Norman.

[[File:Norman saving Ruby.png|thumb|Ruby being saved by Norman]]
The father and son have a showdown, which results in Ruby falling off the Weather Institute. He is saved by his father, who goes on to give Ruby permission to participate in Contests. Overjoyed, Ruby heads off with [[Gabby and Ty]], a pair of interviewers who had witnessed the battle between Ruby and his father, to [[Verdanturf Town]]. There, he participates in, and wins, all of the normal rank [[Contests]]. After winning he spots {{Adv|Wally}} in the crowd and chases after him, only to find out it was not Wally after all, but his cousin [[Wanda]].

Soon, Ruby, Ty and Gabby hear of a riot caused by {{p|Whismur}}. They go to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] to investigate and fight against Team Magma's {{FB|Magma Admin|Courtney}}. After a long battle, Ruby and his two new comrades head towards [[Fallarbor Town]].

Upon arriving in the small, Ruby immediately entered the Tough, Cool, Cute and Smart categories of the Super Rank Contests. However, he was too late to enter the Beauty category and was forced to watch. During the Beauty category, he fell in love with [[Wallace]]'s performance and, afterward, asked the older man to be his master. Although Wallace originally refused, he changed his mind after witnessing Ruby battle. The two then headed for [[Fortree City]], where Wallace was to meet with the other Gym Leaders.

After arriving in the city, Ruby meet up with Sapphire again and battled against a group of {{p|Grumpig}}, during which Sapphire realized that Ruby wasn't as weak as he claimed to be. This led to the biggest argument between the two and Sapphire telling Ruby that she never wanted to see him again.

Due to this argument, Ruby ran from Fortree and went to the flooded Slateport City and participating in all the Hyper Rank Contests. He won all of them too, but lost to Wallace in the beauty category, which led to Ruby telling Feefee that she was ugly after which Feefee ran away from Ruby, who cried himself unconscious.

[[File:Ruby Vol 22.png|thumb|250px|left|Ruby in the last RS chapter volume]]
When he awoke, he was feeling bad about what he had done when he saw Sapphire on TV, along with her new {{p|Relicanth}}, which he recognized as the Pokémon that Mr. Briney said could {{m|dive}} deep into the sea. Realizing that he was the only one who knew this, Ruby left the first aid station and saved a [[blind boy]]'s {{p|Magikarp}} that he had initially thought was Feefee. The boy then made Ruby realize that he should help out in the crisis that was happening in Hoenn and Ruby then sent a letter to Wallace stating that he would fight against the Ancient Pokémon.

Wallace drove Ruby in his air car to Sapphire's location. He then explained to everyone that Relicanth could take him and Sapphire to the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. They then dived under the sea together, their goal to defeat Maxie and Archie.

At the bottom of the sea, the young pair squared off against Maxie and Archie, gaining the edge by taking advantage of their selfish mindsets. However, the two leaders became fully taken over by the power of the orbs they held, and dragged their foes to [[Sootopolis City]], where the two titans were having their tremendous battle. Ruby and Sapphire, seeing the overwhelming power the two monsters held before them, lose all hope and tell their mentors to abscond. [[Winona]] and Wallace, however, managed to snap them out of it, and after the two young [[Pokédex holder]]s reminisce of their forgotten past, are able to drive the Red and Blue Orbs out of the insane leaders' bodies using the {{key|III|Meteorite}} that deactivated [[Mt. Chimney]] earlier.

In the ensuing explosion, the two were blown away, and soon were then taken to Mirage Island, where they, under the leadership of Wallace's master [[Juan]], trained and learned that they had absorbed the Blue and Red Orbs. After they complete their training and learn to control the orbs to their will, Sapphire receives the {{DL|Badge|Mind}} and {{Badge|Rain}}s.

[[File:Ruby no hat.png|thumb|Ruby, without his hat, revealing his scar]]
Just before leaving Mirage Island to embark on their final mission, Sapphire told a shocked Ruby that she liked him. Before Ruby could respond, they had to leave and he didn't get to tell that he felt the same way until they reached [[Sootopolis City]], where he pushed Sapphire away in order to protect her. Ruby then left with [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] in order to fight against Maxie, Archie, and the Ancient Pokémon {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}.

After Courtney's death, Ruby reunited with Feefee, who then evolved into a {{p|Milotic}}. Sapphire then came to the battle field and the two rivals charged up {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} and finally defeated Archie and Maxie. Ruby then used Celebi to restore peace.

The next day was the eightieth day of the bet and Ruby had succeed in his goal of getting all of the Ribbons in Hoenn. He then ran off into the sunset with Sapphire to Littleroot Town, where a party was awaiting them.

==={{chap|Emerald}}===
[[File:Ruby E chapter.png|thumb|left|190px|Ruby in the sixth chapter]]
Almost a year later, Ruby, along with {{adv|Sapphire}}, was sent to the Battle Frontier by [[Professor Birch]] to help out the third Pokédex holder {{adv|Emerald}} in his quest to save {{p|Jirachi}} from [[Guile Hideout]]. They first met up with the boy at the Battle Dome but it soon became clear that he resented them. So, in order to get to know Emerald, the two entered the Battle Dome tournament. Ruby fought Emerald in the semi-finals but lost. He did however help [[Emerald's Sceptile]] regain its memories of its past with [[Professor Birch]]. He and Sapphire were then kicked out of the Battle Dome by Emerald.

Outside, the two ran into [[Palace Maven Spenser]], who recognized Sapphire as a person who had held the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Blue Orb}}. Ruby found this odd and recorded this encounter with the power of the Memory Lighter that he had been given from Marge. After Guile Hideout captured Jirachi, Ruby and Sapphire teamed up with {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} and Emerald and challenged the Battle Tower as a four man team.

On the top floor, the team found {{FB|Salon Maiden|Anabel}} brainwashed and under the control of Guile Hideout. With the use of {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} shared sight ability, Spenser informed the trio of Pokédex holders that Guile had touched the Blue Orb, forcing Guile to reveal his true identity as [[Archie]]. After Archie summoned the Great Sea Beast to flood the Battle Frontier, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald were joined by {{adv|Crystal}} and {{adv|Gold}}, who revealed that Ruby and Sapphire needed Jirachi to revive their senior Pokédex holders {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}}, {{adv|Yellow}} and {{adv|Silver}}, who had all been petrified by a beam that was meant for {{p|Deoxys}} at the end of the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}.

After Emerald was able to awaken the older Pokédex holders from their petrification, Ruby used Mumu's newly learned {{m|Hydro Cannon}} attack to destroy the sea beast. After the battle was over, Ruby participated in a tournament between all ten Pokédex holders, which he, at some point, lost.

==Pokémon==
In the original version and Chuang Yi translation, the nicknames of Ruby's Pokémon are derived from their Japanese species names with a certain syllable repeated twice. In the Viz translation, the English names are used instead. In the original Japanese version, the names are written in the {{wp|Latin alphabet}} as opposed to {{wp|kana}}.

'''Cheren''' (Japanese: '''チェレン''' ''Cheren'') is a supporting character of the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Character==
[[File:Cheren young Adventures.png|thumb|left|180px|Cheren at age five]]
Cheren is a Pokémon Trainer along with his two friends, {{adv|Bianca}} and {{adv|Black}}. Cheren is a very polite person and is prone to apologizing for even the most pointless of reasons. He and Bianca are well acquainted with [[Professor Juniper]] and were the ones who recommended Black to be the third Unova [[Pokédex holder]] despite her having never met the boy before.

Cheren has known Black since they were both children and has memorized all of his various quirks.

==History==
==={{chap|Black & White}}===
Cheren grew up in Nuvema Town with his friends Bianca and Black. As they played together, Black gained interest in becoming a Pokémon Trainer and beating the Pokémon League and dragged Cheren and Bianca into becoming Pokémon Trainers as well.

Cheren, along with Bianca, first make their appearance in front of Professor Juniper's Lab where they find the aftermath of the fight between the Professor's {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}}. While Professor Juniper fumes over the mess caused by the fighting Pokémon, Bianca gives him the Snivy, stating that it resembled him, and takes Oshawott for herself.

Noticing the Tepig's footprints on the ground, the group follows them to find Black and Tepig on a tree being attacked by a wild Pokémon. While Cheren wants to help, Professor Juniper wants to see if Black can defeat the Pokémon by himself and if he does, she will allow him to have a Pokédex despite the trouble he caused. While Black fights the Pokémon off, Cheren explains the techniques Black used to find it to Professor Juniper.

After Black leaves the area once he defeats the wild Pokémon, Cheren and Bianca find out that their Pokédexes are malfunctioning because of Black's negligence, leaving his as the only working one.

Later, Cheren and Bianca have a sparring match with their new Pokémon while they wait for their Pokédexes to be fixed. When Professor Juniper tells them that it would take longer than she thought it would, she asks if Cheren and Bianca are in contact with Black. When Cheren states they aren't, he states that Black may be researching information about Tepig.

Cheren then goes on to explain how Black started to become interested in becoming a Pokémon Trainer and dragging him and Bianca into it as well. After this, Professor Juniper tells Cheren and Bianca to find Black and tell him that he has the only working Pokédex and that he should take care of it. Cheren and Bianca then begin their journey together.
[[File:Cheren Adventures.png|thumb|left|Cheren in the {{chap|Black & White}}]]
Sometime later, Cheren and Bianca reach [[Striaton City]] so they can find Black. They manage to find him in a restaurant where Bianca mistakes him being on a date with {{adv|White|a girl}}. After the girl leaves, Cheren and Bianca meet up with Black who explains his situation to them. Soon after, they are introduced to the Gym Leaders of the restaurant/Gym, [[Cilan]], [[Cress]], and [[Chili]].

[[File:Black Cheren Bianca Gym Battle.png|thumb|240px|Black, Bianca, and Cheren in their first Gym battle]]
When Black's Gym battle starts, Bianca interferes with the challenge when she attempts to solve the Gyms puzzle, only to get it wrong by saying that the {{type|Fire}} is strong against the {{type|Water}}. After Black and Bianca get into a fight, their Pokémon fighting as well, Cheren lectures Black about his actions. He explains to Black that because of his negligence, his and Bianca's Pokédexes are broken and they had to start their journey later than they intended. Cheren passes on the message from Professor Juniper and tells him to be more considerate of others.

Suddenly, Chili calls from the video-phone to tell them that Black is disqualified from challenging the Gym. Luckily for Black, it turned out that Chili was only kidding and he lets Bianca and Cheren take on the Gym as well because it would be a good learning experience for Bianca. After this, Black and Cheren teach Bianca about Pokémon type compatibility by using her Oshawott as an example of which types are super effective and not very effective to {{type|Water}} Pokémon. As they go through the Gym, Cheren notes that Bianca is learning about type compatibilities, the starters start to get along, and they finally reach the Gym Leaders.

At first, the Gym Leaders have the advantage in the battle but by using strategy, Cheren, Bianca, and Black manage to rack up some damage against the Gym Leaders' Pokémon.

Eventually, Cheren's Snivy is hit by a powerful attack from [[Chili's Pansear]] and is the first to be knocked out. Soon after, Oshawott is defeated, leaving Tep as the only Pokémon left to fight Cilan and Cress's Pansage and {{p|Panpour}}. Despite nearly being defeated by Panpour, Tep manages to feed Oshawott and Snivy some of Pansage's leaves, rejuvenating them and allowing their Trainers to win the match 3-2 when the Gyms time limit runs out.

The three Trainers then receive their Badges from the Striaton Gym Leaders. Afterwards, Black apologizes to Cheren and Bianca for breaking the Pokédexes and gives them a Xtransceiver so they can keep in touch. After this, White comes back and introduces herself to Bianca and Cheren while advertising her [[BW Agency]]. After the two groups go their separate ways, Cheren and Bianca realize they didn't get Black's Xtransceiver number and run off to find him.

Cheren meets up with Black again at [[Driftveil City]] after his {{p|Pidove}} evolves into a {{p|Tranquill}}. There, Cheren takes Black to a place to train their Pokémon to celebrate their meeting up again. While they train, Cheren is attacked by Team Plasma, who steal his Snivy in an attempt to liberate it. Cheren and Black follow the thieves to the [[Cold Storage]], where they battle them to retrieve Cheren's stolen Pokémon.

With the help of his Tranquill, Cheren manages to free his Snivy from its Poké Ball. Together, with the assistance of Black's [[Nite]], they defeat the Plasma Grunt's Pokémon with a combination of {{m|Fire Pledge}} and {{m|Grass Pledge}}. Defeated, the Grunts flee while Black and Cheren celebrate their teamwork.

Despite earlier claims of not intending to participate, Cheren is revealed to be one of the competitors of the {{OBP|Pokémon League|Unova}}. After advancing through the rounds, he eventually makes it to the top 8. In the quarterfinals, he is set up to face {{tc|Poké Maniac|Petashi}} as his opponent. During the battle, Cheren manages to easily defeat his opponent, but Black notes that he was unusually cold to his opponent.

In the semifinals, Cheren faces [[Hood Man]] as his next opponent. During the battle, it is revealed that Cheren's Snivy had yet to evolve, much to Black's confusion. When Snivy is unable to defeat its opponent, Cheren expresses disappointment in its power and forcibly switches it out for Unfezant, who manages to defeat Hood Man. This infuriates Black, who becomes disgusted at Cheren's terrible treatment of his Pokémon and demands to know what's wrong with him. Cheren reveals that he switched Snivy out because it didn't live up to his expectations of strength.

This angers Black even further, and he leaps out of his seat to confront his friend. Despite the Announcer stating that they have to wait until the final match begins, both Trainers decide to battle each other immediately. In their battle, Cheren reveals that after their adventure in the Cold Storage, he returned there because he was curious about Team Plasma. There, he encountered Zinzolin, who managed to drill Team Plasma's ideals into Cheren's head and made him pursue strength. Black refuses to accept Cheren's motives and challenges him to prove that he's right by beating him in battle.

Cheren attempts to have his {{p|Gigalith}} finish off [[Buoh]], but a large cloud of pink smoke suddenly fills the sky, preventing it from attack. Cheren and Black switch out for Unfezant and {{p|Braviary|Brav}} and has them attack each other with {{m|Sky Attack}}. The attacks collide, but Unfezant is defeated, making Black the winner of the battle. When the Announcer checks up on the two, he finds that both of them have fallen asleep. In their dreams, Cheren and Black meet each other and see their younger selves writing their dreams in a notebook. Black soon wakes up first and states that no matter what, he will always remain friends with Cheren. The anger he feels from seeing Cheren used by Team Plasma helps free his {{p|Reshiram}} from the Light Stone.

==={{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}===
Two years later, he became the teacher of a [[Pokémon academy|Trainer's School]] in [[Aspertia City]]. While he teaches class, Cheren gets annoyed by Petashi, Hugh, and [[Rakutsu]]'s clamoring and forces them to stand outside while class was still in session. After they continue to talk even while outside, Cheren decides that it would be best to have a battle between the class. When Rakutsu and [[Faitsu]] win the battle, Cheren reveals that the battle was a test to determine the best Trainers in the class. He has Bianca come and present the two winners with new Pokédexes.

'''Bianca''' (Japanese: '''ベル''' ''Bel'') is a supporting character of the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Character==
Bianca is a newly starting out Pokémon Trainer along with her two friends, {{adv|Black}} and {{adv|Cheren}}. She and Cheren are well acquainted with [[Professor Juniper]] and were the ones who recommended him to be the third Unova [[Pokédex holder]] despite her having never met the boy before. She is described as a girl who goes about in her own pace and is prone to impulsive actions that can get her and those around her in trouble.

==History==
===Past===
[[File:Bianca young Adventures.png|thumb|left|180px|Bianca at age five]]
Bianca and Cheren have been friends with Black since they were small children despite the fact that Black lived in a different town from them. As they played together, Black gained interest in beating the Pokémon League and subsequently dragged Bianca and Cheren into doing it as well.

==={{chap|Black & White}}===
Bianca, along with Cheren, first appears in front of Black's house where they witness the aftermath of the fight involving Professor Juniper's {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}}. While Professor Juniper shows her anger over the fight between the starters and the Pokédexes that Black had dropped into a puddle, Bianca gives Cheren the Snivy, stating that it resembled him, and takes Oshawott for herself.

[[File:Black Cheren Bianca Gym Battle.png|thumb|240px|Black, Bianca, and Cheren in their first Gym battle]]

They all chase after the missing Tepig and find Black trying to rescue it from a tree. When Black is attacked by an unknown Pokémon, Bianca and Professor Juniper listen to Cheren's explanation about Black's abilities with his [[Musha]] and they witness him defeat the Pokémon, a {{p|Sewaddle}}, and fly off. They are all shocked to find out that the Pokédexes that Black had accidentally dropped into the water no longer work.

Next, Bianca and Cheren have a brief sparring match with their new Pokémon which ends with Bianca getting hit by her Oshawott and attacking Cheren in anger. Cheren explains his and Bianca's history with Black to Professor Juniper and they decide to go tell him about his Pokédex being the only working one. Just as they leave, Bianca's father tries to stop her from leaving but Bianca refuses to listen to him.
[[File:Bianca Adventures.png|thumb|left|100px|Bianca in the {{chap|Black & White}}]]
Sometime later, after losing a battle to a wild {{p|Audino}}, Bianca and Cheren reach [[Striaton City]] to find Black. They manage to find him in a restaurant where Bianca mistakes him being on a date with {{adv|White|a girl}}. After the girl leaves, Bianca and Cheren meet up with Black who explains his situation to them. Soon after, they are introduced to the Gym Leaders of the restaurant/Gym, [[Cilan]], [[Cress]], and [[Chili]].

When Black's Gym battle starts, Bianca interferes with the challenge when she attempts to solve the Gyms puzzle, only to get it wrong by saying that {{type|Fire}} is strong against {{type|Water}}. When Black tries to get her to stay out of his challenge, Bianca retaliates by sending her Oshawott to attack his Tep which causes Cheren's Snivy to attack them in order to stop their fighting. After Cheren defends Bianca, Chili tells them that because of Bianca's interference, Black is disqualified from challenging the Gym.

Luckily for Black, it turned out that Chili was only kidding and he lets Bianca and Cheren take on the Gym as well due to it being a good learning experience for Bianca. After this, Black decides to teach Bianca about Pokémon type compatibility by using her Oshawott as an example of which types are super effective and not very effective to {{type|water}} Pokémon. As they go through the Gym, Bianca learns about type compatibilities, the starters start to get along, and they finally reach the Gym Leaders.

At first, the Gym Leaders have the advantage in the battle but by using strategy, Bianca, Black, and Cheren manage to rack up some damage against the Gym Leaders' Pokémon. Eventually, Bianca has her Oshawott block an attack from [[Cilan's Pansage]] and then has it attack [[Chili's Pansear]] with its [[scalchop]], defeating it in the process. Immediately after, Oshawott is defeated by Pansage, leaving Tep as the only Pokémon left to fight Cilan and Cress's Pansage and {{p|Panpour}}. Despite nearly being defeated by Panpour, Tep manages to feed Oshawott and Snivy some of Pansage's leaves, rejuvenating them and allowing their Trainers to win the match 3-2 when the Gyms time limit runs out.

Bianca, Cheren, and Black then receive their Badges from the Striaton Gym Leaders. Afterwards, Bianca and Cheren are given a Xtransceiver from Black in order to keep in touch with him. After this, White comes back and introduces herself to Bianca and Cheren while advertising her [[BW Agency]]. After the two groups go their separate ways, Bianca and Cheren realize they didn't get Black's Xtransceiver number and run off to find him.

Bianca is later seen walking through the streets of [[Castelia City]] with her new Pokémon, {{p|Litwick}}, while looking for Black so she can obtain his Xtransceiver number. She is knocked unconscious by an {{p|Amoonguss}} while its Trainer, a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}, kidnaps her Litwick. Iris later finds the unconscious Bianca and easily deduces what happened and reports it to [[Burgh]] who just finished his Gym match against Black. The three of them along with White head to Team Plasma's hideout after Black's newly evolved [[Buoh|Pignite]] follows the scent and they rescue Litwick and the other Pokémon Team Plasma had captured.

After arriving in [[Anville Town]], White finds a depressed Bianca playing music with the help of her Pokémon. Bianca reveals that during her entire journey, she has been avoiding her overprotective father, and because of this, she hasn't improved her skills in battling. To cheer her up, White takes Bianca to Café Sonata to help her try out performing music. To their horror, they find that the place has been attacked by a wild {{p|Vullaby}}.

They quickly find out that the Vullaby is pursuing the mythical Pokémon {{p|Meloetta}} and ransacked the place while chasing it. In order to help, Bianca takes the guitar of a musician and helps Meloetta remember the move {{m|Relic Song}}. This allows Meloetta to transform into its Pirouette Forme and defeat the Vullaby, which is soon captured by White. Afterward, Bianca decides to give up her Pokémon journey and become Professor Juniper's assistant. When [[Cedric Juniper]] comes to deliver Bianca her fixed Pokédex, Bianca decides to give it to White.

==={{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}===
In the ''Black 2 & White 2 chapter'', Bianca is called to [[Aspertia City]] at Cheren's request. She presents two Pokédexes to [[Rakutsu]] and [[Faitsu]] for winning the small tournament with their classmates to determine the best Trainers between them. Although Faitsu is reluctant at first, she takes the Pokédex after some coaxing from Rakutsu.

'''Cheren''' (Japanese: '''チェレン''' ''Cheren'') is a supporting character of the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Character==
[[File:Cheren young Adventures.png|thumb|left|180px|Cheren at age five]]
Cheren is a Pokémon Trainer along with his two friends, {{adv|Bianca}} and {{adv|Black}}. Cheren is a very polite person and is prone to apologizing for even the most pointless of reasons. He and Bianca are well acquainted with [[Professor Juniper]] and were the ones who recommended Black to be the third Unova [[Pokédex holder]] despite her having never met the boy before.

Cheren has known Black since they were both children and has memorized all of his various quirks.

==History==
Cheren grew up in Nuvema Town with his friends Bianca and Black. As they played together, Black gained interest in becoming a Pokémon Trainer and beating the Pokémon League and dragged Cheren and Bianca into becoming Pokémon Trainers as well.

Cheren, along with Bianca, first make their appearance in front of Professor Juniper's Lab where they find the aftermath of the fight between the Professor's {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}}. While Professor Juniper fumes over the mess caused by the fighting Pokémon, Bianca gives him the Snivy, stating that it resembled him, and takes Oshawott for herself.

Noticing the Tepig's footprints on the ground, the group follows them to find Black and Tepig on a tree being attacked by a wild Pokémon. While Cheren wants to help, Professor Juniper wants to see if Black can defeat the Pokémon by himself and if he does, she will allow him to have a Pokédex despite the trouble he caused. While Black fights the Pokémon off, Cheren explains the techniques Black used to find it to Professor Juniper.

After Black leaves the area once he defeats the wild Pokémon, Cheren and Bianca find out that their Pokédexes are malfunctioning because of Black's negligence, leaving his as the only working one.

Later, Cheren and Bianca have a sparring match with their new Pokémon while they wait for their Pokédexes to be fixed. When Professor Juniper tells them that it would take longer than she thought it would, she asks if Cheren and Bianca are in contact with Black. When Cheren states they aren't, he states that Black may be researching information about Tepig.

Cheren then goes on to explain how Black started to become interested in becoming a Pokémon Trainer and dragging him and Bianca into it as well. After this, Professor Juniper tells Cheren and Bianca to find Black and tell him that he has the only working Pokédex and that he should take care of it. Cheren and Bianca then begin their journey together.
[[File:Cheren Adventures.png|thumb|left|Cheren in the {{chap|Black & White}}]]
Sometime later, Cheren and Bianca reach [[Striaton City]] so they can find Black. They manage to find him in a restaurant where Bianca mistakes him being on a date with {{adv|White|a girl}}. After the girl leaves, Cheren and Bianca meet up with Black who explains his situation to them. Soon after, they are introduced to the Gym Leaders of the restaurant/Gym, [[Cilan]], [[Cress]], and [[Chili]].

[[File:Black Cheren Bianca Gym Battle.png|thumb|240px|Black, Bianca, and Cheren in their first Gym battle]]
When Black's Gym battle starts, Bianca interferes with the challenge when she attempts to solve the Gyms puzzle, only to get it wrong by saying that the {{type|Fire}} is strong against the {{type|Water}}. After Black and Bianca get into a fight, their Pokémon fighting as well, Cheren lectures Black about his actions. He explains to Black that because of his negligence, his and Bianca's Pokédexes are broken and they had to start their journey later than they intended. Cheren passes on the message from Professor Juniper and tells him to be more considerate of others.

Suddenly, Chili calls from the video-phone to tell them that Black is disqualified from challenging the Gym. Luckily for Black, it turned out that Chili was only kidding and he lets Bianca and Cheren take on the Gym as well because it would be a good learning experience for Bianca. After this, Black and Cheren teach Bianca about Pokémon type compatibility by using her Oshawott as an example of which types are super effective and not very effective to {{type|Water}} Pokémon. As they go through the Gym, Cheren notes that Bianca is learning about type compatibilities, the starters start to get along, and they finally reach the Gym Leaders.

At first, the Gym Leaders have the advantage in the battle but by using strategy, Cheren, Bianca, and Black manage to rack up some damage against the Gym Leaders' Pokémon.

Eventually, Cheren's Snivy is hit by a powerful attack from [[Chili's Pansear]] and is the first to be knocked out. Soon after, Oshawott is defeated, leaving Tep as the only Pokémon left to fight Cilan and Cress's Pansage and {{p|Panpour}}. Despite nearly being defeated by Panpour, Tep manages to feed Oshawott and Snivy some of Pansage's leaves, rejuvenating them and allowing their Trainers to win the match 3-2 when the Gyms time limit runs out.

The three Trainers then receive their Badges from the Striaton Gym Leaders. Afterwards, Black apologizes to Cheren and Bianca for breaking the Pokédexes and gives them a Xtransceiver so they can keep in touch. After this, White comes back and introduces herself to Bianca and Cheren while advertising her [[BW Agency]]. After the two groups go their separate ways, Cheren and Bianca realize they didn't get Black's Xtransceiver number and run off to find him.

Cheren meets up with Black again at [[Driftveil City]] after his {{p|Pidove}} evolves into a {{p|Tranquill}}. There, Cheren takes Black to a place to train their Pokémon to celebrate their meeting up again. While they train, Cheren is attacked by Team Plasma, who steal his Snivy in an attempt to liberate it. Cheren and Black follow the thieves to the [[Cold Storage]], where they battle them to retrieve Cheren's stolen Pokémon.

With the help of his Tranquill, Cheren manages to free his Snivy from its Poké Ball. Together, with the assistance of Black's [[Nite]], they defeat the Plasma Grunt's Pokémon with a combination of {{m|Fire Pledge}} and {{m|Grass Pledge}}. Defeated, the Grunts flee while Black and Cheren celebrate their teamwork.

Despite earlier claims of not intending to participate, Cheren is revealed to be one of the competitors of the {{OBP|Pokémon League|Unova}}. After advancing through the rounds, he eventually makes it to the top 8. In the quarterfinals, he is set up to face {{tc|Poké Maniac|Petashi}} as his opponent. During the battle, Cheren manages to easily defeat his opponent, but Black notes that he was unusually cold to his opponent.

In the semifinals, Cheren faces [[Hood Man]] as his next opponent. During the battle, it is revealed that Cheren's Snivy had yet to evolve, much to Black's confusion. When Snivy is unable to defeat its opponent, Cheren expresses disappointment in its power and forcibly switches it out for Unfezant, who manages to defeat Hood Man. This infuriates Black, who becomes disgusted at Cheren's terrible treatment of his Pokémon and demands to know what's wrong with him. Cheren reveals that he switched Snivy out because it didn't live up to his expectations of strength.

This angers Black even further, and he leaps out of his seat to confront his friend. Despite the Announcer stating that they have to wait until the final match begins, both Trainers decide to battle each other immediately. In their battle, Cheren reveals that after their adventure in the Cold Storage, he returned there because he was curious about Team Plasma. There, he encountered Zinzolin, who managed to drill Team Plasma's ideals into Cheren's head and made him pursue strength. Black refuses to accept Cheren's motives and challenges him to prove that he's right by beating him in battle.

Cheren attempts to have his {{p|Gigalith}} finish off [[Buoh]], but a large cloud of pink smoke suddenly fills the sky, preventing it from attack. Cheren and Black switch out for Unfezant and {{p|Braviary|Brav}} and has them attack each other with {{m|Sky Attack}}. The attacks collide, but Unfezant is defeated, making Black the winner of the battle. When the Announcer checks up on the two, he finds that both of them have fallen asleep. In their dreams, Cheren and Black meet each other and see their younger selves writing their dreams in a notebook. Black soon wakes up first and states that no matter what, he will always remain friends with Cheren. The anger he feels from seeing Cheren used by Team Plasma helps free his {{p|Reshiram}} from the Light Stone.

Two years later, he became the teacher of a [[Pokémon academy|Trainer's School]] in [[Aspertia City]]. While he teaches class, Cheren gets annoyed by Petashi, Hugh, and [[Rakutsu]]'s clamoring and forces them to stand outside while class was still in session. After they continue to talk even while outside, Cheren decides that it would be best to have a battle between the class. When Rakutsu and [[Faitsu]] win the battle, Cheren reveals that the battle was a test to determine the best Trainers in the class. He has Bianca come and present the two winners with new Pokédexes.

The {{player}}'s '''mom ''' (Japanese: '''おかあさん''' ''mother'') is a character in every [[version|main series]] {{pkmn|games|Pokémon game}}. Although different each time, she will always be the one to see her child off on his or her journey with his or her [[starter Pokémon]].

==In the games==
In the games, when players speaks to their mother, she will heal the [[party]], as there is no [[Pokémon Center]] in the town; this is not the case in Johto, in which [[Professor Elm]]'s lab has a healing machine, and [[Unova]] in Black 2 and White 2, in which [[Aspertia City]] has a Pokémon Center. In Johto the player's mother will not heal the party, but in Aspertia City, she will. The player's mother may also do several other things specific to the game. When the player is setting off on his or her journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]], the player's mother will typically give him/her the [[Running Shoes]] as a gift, either in person or via a messenger, reading the provided instructions as well.

===[[Kanto]]===
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Red}} or {{ga|Leaf}}. In [[Generation I]] and {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, at the beginning of the games, she will inform the player that [[Professor Oak]] wants to see the player. After that, she will heal the player's Pokémon when talked to. This same mother also appears in Generation II and HeartGold and SoulSilver, telling the player how worried she is about {{ga|Red}}, her son, but also how proud she is of him.

===[[Johto]]===
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Ethan}}, {{ga|Kris}}, or {{ga|Lyra}}. In [[Generation II]] and {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player's mother informs them that the [[Pokégear]] has returned from the repair shop. In Generation II, she then helps set the [[days of the week|day of the week]]. She will save the player's money, so that a quarter of the money won from each battle is automatically sent to her, and money can be deposited and withdrawn from her. She occasionally buys [[decoration]]s{{sup/2|GSC}}, {{cat|damage-reducing Berries}}{{sup/4|HGSS}} or other items (listed below) with the player's money, then apologizes for spending the money she is saving. Her cooking specialty is the Cinnabar Volcano Burger.

===[[Hoenn]]===
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Brendan}} or {{ga|May}} and the wife of [[Norman]]. In [[Generation III]], the player's mother helps the player move in, and instructs them to set the [[time]] on the clock upstairs and to make sure that everything is on their desk. When the player comes back downstairs, she will say that [[Norman|the player's father]] is on TV; however, the player just missed him.

When the player defeats [[Norman]], she will give an {{DL|In-battle effect item|Amulet Coin}} as a reward.

After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], a news report will be on TV. It will announce that a Pokémon is roaming the Hoenn region, which will be either {{p|Latias}}{{sup/3|Sa}}, {{p|Latios}}{{sup/3|Ru}}, or it will not distinguish which of the [[eon duo]] is the roaming Pokémon{{sup/3|E}}, due to static interference. In {{v2|Emerald}}, the player's mother will ask if the news report was either about a red creature (Latias) or a blue creature (Latios). The one chosen will then roam Hoenn.

It has a quaint feel, but it seems to be an easy place to live, don't you think? And, you get your own room, <player>! Let's go inside."''

Johanna is the mother of {{ga|Lucas}} or {{ga|Dawn}}. In [[Generation IV]], the player's mother takes on an active lifestyle, competing in [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s in [[Hearthome City]] at times. She gives the player a tuxedo or a dress when they meet at the {{pkmn|Super Contest}} Hall. She also gives the player a {{key|IV|Journal}} at the beginning of the game.

===[[Unova]]===
====[[Nuvema Town]]====
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Hilbert}} or {{ga|Hilda}}. She lives in [[Nuvema Town]], and she met her husband while he was on his own [[Pokémon journey]]. Apparently she was once a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and had a journey of her own.

She mostly stays at home but leaves at one point to deliver the [[Running Shoes]]. [[Looker]] dresses up as her in the player's house after the defeat of [[Team Plasma]].

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, much like Red's mother in Generation II and IV, she still resides in the same house and tells the player that her {{ga|Hilbert|son}}/{{ga|Hilda|daughter}} is out in another region looking for [[N]].

If [[Memory Link]] has been activated, she will refer to her son/daughter by the player's name from the game the input friend code is from. Otherwise, she will not refer to them by a name, but rather as her child.

{{incomplete|section|any dummied out comments (such as Route 10)}}
'''In Aspertia City'''
*Talking to [[Professor Juniper]]:
:''"Oh, hi! Why, Aurea Juniper! It's been far too long! What can I do for you? ... Wow! A Pokédex... For my child? Why, that's great! I think a journey would be a wonderful experience! What now? She's already here? Oh, for Pete's sake. You never change. Once you've decided on something, you just start going. OK! [[Bianca]], right? A big, green hat. Got it. OK! No worries!"''

*Returning home:
:''"<player>! I'm home!"''

*When the player leaves their room:
:''"Do you know Professor Juniper? She's a famous Pokémon researcher. Actually, she's an old friend of mine, and she called me today for the first time in ages! This is out of the blue, but, <player>! Do you want to have a Pokémon?"''
::'''No:''' ''"What?! That's a shock! I'll ask you again."''
::'''Yes:''' ''"OK! Step one completed! Well then, do you know what a Pokédex is?"''
:::'''No:''' ''"I see... It's an amazing device that automatically records the Pokémon you encounter! Yet another question! You want a Pokédex, right?"''
:::'''Yes:''' ''"I knew you would! Isn't it amazing how it automatically records Pokémon you encounter? Yet another question! You want a Pokédex, right?"''
::::'''No:''' ''"I don't mean to be selfish, but I'd like it if you were a bit more agreeable. Having a Pokédex means travelling around the world! Think about that for a second. So I'll ask you again... You want a Pokédex, right?"''
::::'''Yes:''' ''"OK! Step two completed! <Player>! Your course of action has been set! A girl names Bianca has come here to meet you! She's Professor Juniper's assistant. I was told to simple look for a big, green hat! That's right! You're going to look for Bianca. And then you'll get a Pokédex and a Pokémon to be your partner! Oh! Your [[Xtransceiver]]'s in your Bag right? Do you know how to open your Bag?"''
:::::'''No:''' ''"I'll send you off with these words from "Adventure Rules." "The X Button is vitally important for Trainers." OK! Off with you now! Go look for Bianca, OK!"''
:::::'''Yes:''' ''"The girl's name is Bianca. I was told you should look for a big, green hat! She might be lost because this is her first time here. Go look for her!"''

*Outside the [[Pokémon Center]]:
:''"Oh! Nice to meet you! You must be Bianca, right? And <player> picked {{tt|[[Snivy]]/[[Tepig]]/[[Oshawott]]|Depending on starter chosen.}}, then? Hee hee. Looking good!"''

*'''Aspertia Gate?'''
:Aspertia Gate is really close! What? If you want to rest, you should just come home!
*'''Route 19?'''
:Route 19 is right outside of Aspertia. I guess you could say it's a valley road.
*'''Flocessy Town?'''
:You're in Flocessy Town for a spell? Did you visit Alder's house? A long time ago, Alder taught me about Pokémon! Boy, that takes me back!
*'''Pledge Grove?'''
:Pledge Grove? Oh. The one in Flocessy Town! The marks on that rock just have to have been made by Pokémon!
*'''Route 20?'''
:Route 20 is a place where you can enjoy the changing of the seasons. My favorite season is fall! You know, the foliage, the colors... Ah...
*'''Flocessy Ranch?'''
:The ranch! Apparently, when I was little, I rode a Pokémon and everyone got really mad! But I was just a little kid, and I don't remember that at all!
*'''Cave of Being?'''
:The Cave of Being. Ah, yes, I recall it. I wonder what's in there. Apparently, it's a strange place with nothing inside.
*'''Virbank Gate?'''
:Virbank Gate, and... Gates are pretty much the same anywhere, wouldn't you say?'''
*'''Virbank City?'''
:Virbank City! You went to a music club? Recently, I've been getting into Roxie's band! When I listen to them, I feel so full of energy!
*'''Virbank Complex?'''
:Virbank Complex? What, are you helping someone work? Still, I sure remember how pretty it looked at night!
*'''Pokéstar Studios?'''
:Pokéstar Studios! What?! You're going to be in a movie? Well, I'll have to go see it! Oh, a little advice--acting is all about being natural!
*'''Castelia City?'''
:Castelia City! There's just too much to see there! You might want to participate in the Castelia Harlequin Hunt! That's a great way to see the sights. Other than that... Try exploring on your own! Exploring is one of the most fun things about arriving in a new city!
*'''Castelia Sewers?'''
:Castelia Sewers. That's just another way to say it's Castelia City's sewer system. I'm sorry I can't help more. I know about it, but I've never been. But, listen! I've heard there's a secret place located at the far end of the sewer!
*'''Relic Passage?'''
:Relic Passage... As the name suggests, it's an underground passage built long ago. If you pass through it, maybe you'll find out who made it and why!
*'''Liberty Garden?'''
:Where are you now? In Liberty Garden? Two years ago, it became really famous when a mythical Pokémon was found there!
*'''Unity Tower?'''
:Unity Tower! If you've traded Pokémon with people from other countries, you should definitely visit!

:Castelia Gate, huh? The gap between Castelia City and Route 4 is pretty fun, isn't it?
*'''Bridge Gate?'''
:A Bridge Gate? All of the gates connected to bridges in the Unova Region are...all...called...Bridge Gates!
*'''Route 4?'''
:Wow! Route 4! Always a lot going on over there. Things like construction and people finding ruins.
*'''Desert Resort?'''
:Watch out for sandstorms in the Desert Resort! Some types of Pokémon will take constant damage in them!
*'''Route Gate?'''
:Route Gate? Hee hee. There are two gates called Route Gates. The first one is off Route 1, and the other is close to the Desert Resort!
*'''Relic Castle?'''
:The Relic Castle, you say? You'll get buried in sand! You already know this, right? If you run onto pits in this sand, you'll fall through them!
*'''Join Avenue?'''
:You're in Join Avenue? I think the way stores come and go is romantic, somehow.
*'''Nimbasa City?'''
:Nimbasa City is the city of entertainment! Working at the Pokémon Center there was sure a lot of fun. Well, now... Big Stadium and Small Court are packed with tough Trainers. There are so many other things to see and do! Enjoy yourself!
*'''Gear Station?'''
:Gear Station, then? The trains to Anville Town get overlooked more often than you'd expect! If you have time, you should take a ride!
*'''Musical Theater'''
:Musical Theater! Hee hee hee! I used to go there often, too! I only went to watch, though! The Pokémon look so cute with their accessories and dancing!
*'''Anville Town'''
:Anville Town! What? Were you a big fan of trains? Still, I understand how you feel.
*'''Nimbasa Gate?'''
:The Nimbasa Gates, you say? For some odd reason, I like the one on the right!
*'''Route 16?'''
:Route 16, huh... You sure don't expect to find a forest like that so close to Nimbasa City, do you? I wonder what the Lostlorn Forest is like these days.
*'''Lostlorn Forest?'''
:Lostlorn Forest? I think it may have been the work of a Pokémon...
*'''Route 5?'''
:I used to slip out of the Pokémon Center from time to time and go watch the performers on Route 5. While I was there, I met many people, such as a girl who would buy items.
*'''Hidden Grotto?'''
:A Hidden Grotto…? I have no idea what that is! Honestly, I'm not hiding anything!
*'''Driftveil Drawbridge?'''
:The Driftveil Drawbridge, eh? I've always wanted to see the bridge opening and closing.
*'''Driftveil City?'''
:Driftveil City! Recently, hotels have been popping up there like crazy, so I hear. Boy, other than that, I sure don't know much about it!
*'''PWT?'''
:The Pokémon World Tournament? Oh, so you are in Driftveil. What are you going to do? Did you enter the tournament? I'll be cheering for you on TV!
*'''Plasma Frigate?'''
:''No one can be called''
*'''Clay Tunnel?'''
:Clay Tunnel, huh? I heard Clay kept on digging no matter what. I wonder what it is about digging that is so captivating to some folks. I heard there is someone who loves digging in the Sinnoh region as well.
*'''Underground Ruins?'''
:What? The Underground Ruins? I've never heard of such a place. Should I go take a peek and see what's going on there?
*'''Rock Peak Chamber?'''

*'''Mistralton Cave?'''
:Mistralton Cave, huh? Many Trainers go there to catch a Pokémon called Axew!
*'''Chargestone Cave?'''
:What's this? I'm hearing a buzzing noise. What? Chargestone Cave? Wow! The Xtransceiver works in there? I never knew that!
*'''Mistralton City?'''
:Mistralton City always makes me think of Skyla! People who had been hurt by the device in her Pokémon Gym would come to the Pokémon Center.
*'''Route 7?'''
:Route 7 has those raised walkways. If you stop, you fall right off! Also, I seem to remember an unexpected Pokémon popping out of the tall grass.
*'''Celestial Tower?'''
:The Celestial Tower... A final resting place for Pokémon. I'm sure some kind soul will ring the bell today.
*'''Twist Mountain?'''
:I'm having a hard time hearing you… Twist Mountain? Oh, now I see! You're in Clay's mountain, then. I've heard you can find Fossils there!
*'''Lentimas Town?'''
:Lentimas Town is close to Reversal Mountain. It's small, but it has an air of uniqueness that makes it surprisingly popular!
*'''Strange House?'''
:The Strange House?! Wow, I know that place! It's a mysterious place close to Reversal Mountain. Know where I mean? Hmm. Maybe there are ghosts there…
*'''Reversal Mountain?'''
:Reversal Mountain! So many Trainers arrived at the Pokémon Center completely wiped out! Be careful, okay?
*'''Undella Town?'''
:Undella Town, Undella Town. A very rich family used to live there, but it looks like everyone moved. I hear the Marine Tube is totally amazing!
*'''Undella Gate?'''
:Undella Gate is a vertical gate. The fact that it's not really different from a horizontal gate is one of the great things about gates!
*'''Route 13?'''
:My impression of Route 13 is that it's rather long! I remember the main route's being hard to find, but it's nice because you can go many places!
*'''Lacunosa Town?'''
:Lacunosa Town... Oh, my word. What made an impression on me when I visited that town was that it was completely different from day to night.
*'''Route 12?'''
:Route 12's gently sloping hills roll up and down, up and down. Strolling across them is a nice feeling!
*'''Village Bridge?'''
:Recently, the Village Bridge has changed a bit, and there are things like tennis courts there. There's no Pokémon Center, though. I haven't really gotten used to it yet.
*'''Route 11?'''
:Route 11 is just like Route 14. Waterfall time!
*'''Opelucid Gate?'''
:Opelucid Gate, really? Er... I seem to remember a man who was always eating something by one of those gates.
*'''Opelucid City?'''
:Opelucid City! That's a great city! I heard that the mayor, Drayden, can teach an amazing Dragon-type move!
*'''Route 9?'''
:Route 9, huh. The toughs that hang out there might challenge you to a Pokémon battle. But you're a tough Trainer yourself, so that works out great for you!
*'''Shopping Mall?'''
:A Shopping Mall? Hm. Now, I wonder why the first thing that came to mind was the storeroom!
*'''Route 14?'''
:You're on Route 14? Then...use Waterfall, right?!
*'''Abundant Shrine?'''
:Now, hm, the Abundant Shrine? The shrine honors the weather Pokémon that is said to watch over harvests...
*'''Undella Bay?'''
:Undella Bay is a famous place to dive! And, on the bottom of the sea... Well, you should see for yourself!
*'''Abyssal Ruins?'''
:The Abyssal Ruins! A mysterious, ancient script! And if you solve its secret, please tell me what it is!
*'''Seaside Cave?'''
:The Seaside Cave, so, so, so... At some point, waves, wind, and Pokémon made that cave in that giant rock.
*'''Marine Tube?'''
:Wow, the Marine Tube! It was just finished recently, I think! It's like a walk-through aquarium! I really want to go see it!
*'''Route 21?'''
:I guess you could say Route 21 is very rocky. It's like a maze. You might find it surprisingly hard to make progress!
*'''Humilau City?'''
:Oh my! You're in Humilau City? That's the nicest of all the resort areas in the Unova region! I was only at the Pokémon Center in that town for a short while.
*'''Route 22?'''
:Route 22 is very lush and green. So that could well indicate that you'll find many different Pokémon there.
*'''Giant Chasm?'''
:The Giant Chasm? Where is that? Where the meteor fell? What? Is that not it? I think I heard something like that from Professor Juniper once, though...
*'''Route 23?'''
:Route 23, huh... It's the last great natural area in the Unova region. Apparently, the path is so steep and dangerous that some people go on and on about it.
*'''Victory Road?'''
:Victory Road! The road that puts you to the test! You'll be fine! You've got Pokémon by your side!
*'''Pokémon League?'''
:The Pokémon League! Oh, my goodness! So, you just have to challenge the Elite Four, and then... Believe in your Pokémon and move forward!
*'''N's Castle?'''
:Pardon me? Where? N's Castle? I'm sorry... I've never heard of it.
*'''Tubeline Bridge?'''
:Did you feel the vibrations of the Tubeline Bridge on the bottom of your feet? It feels like those vibrations give you energy. I just love that feeling!
*'''Route 8?'''
:Route 8's puddles freeze in winter. I liked how you could slide on them, but it was a bit hard to make forward progress!
*'''Moor of Icirrus?'''
:Moor of Icirrus... Moor of Icirrus... What is it? I've heard of it, but I've never been there...
*'''Icirrus City?'''
:Icirrus City, huh... The way the seasons change there is nice. I particularly like how it looks in winter.
*'''Dragonspiral Tower?'''
:Dragonspiral Tower! Wow! You can go inside? Isn't that the place where they say the legendary Pokémon is resting?
*'''Marvelous Bridge?'''
:The Marvelous Bridge has a futuristic design. But I've heard rumors of a ghost there...
*'''Route 15?'''
:Wow, Route 15... The highlight is the Poké Transfer Lab. And I think there was a lady there who would trade Pokémon. Hmm... Could I have misremembered?
*'''Poké Transfer Lab?'''
:The Poké Transfer Lab! Helping Professor Park is a lot of fun, isn't it?
*'''Black Gate?'''
:Black Gate! Pass on through, pass on through to the expansive Black City! So... Yeah... There isn't a ton to say about gates.
*'''White Gate?'''
:White Gate! Pass on through, pass on through to the expansive White Forest! So... Yeah... There isn't a ton to say about gates.
*'''Black City?'''
:Black City, huh? I wonder how it has changed.
*'''White Forest?'''
:White Forest, huh? I wonder how it has changed.
*'''Black Tower?'''
:The Black Tower! The so-called Unova's Challenge! How far can you get? With those Pokémon at your side, I'm sure you won't have any trouble!
*'''White Treehollow?'''
:The White Treehollow! The so-called Unova's Challenge! How far can you get? With those Pokémon at your side, I'm sure you won't have any trouble!
*'''Entralink?'''
:''Juniper's words echo, so it cannot be used''
*'''Skyarrow Bridge?'''
:The Skyarrow Bridge is sure amazing. When I saw that the first time... That's right, saw it, not crossed it. I guess at the time I was just astonished.
*'''Pinwheel Forest?'''
:Bug-type Pokémon can be found all over Pinwheel Forest. By the way, it never bugs me to see Bug-type Pokémon!
*'''Nacrene City?'''
:I really like Nacrene City's warehouses, especially Café Warehouse! But, actually, the place you absolutely must visit is the Nacrene Museum.
*'''Nacrene Gate?'''
:Nacrene Gate is a very gate-y gate! Unless you're super obsessed with gates, you can't really tell the difference, though.
*'''Route 3?'''
:The Day Care is on Route 3. There's a preschool there too, right? And what was that other place called? Wellspring Cave, was it? It's on that same route.
*'''Wellspring Cave?'''
:Wellspring Cave... It's small, but exploring deep within the cave is surprisingly difficult.
*'''Striaton City?'''
:I recommend the restaurant in Striaton City! It's run by former Gym Leaders, so I'm sure it's amazing!
*'''Dreamyard?'''
:The Dreamyard... I've heard that rarely seen Pokémon go there. A mysterious power remains that draws them there.
*'''Route 2?'''
:Route 2, eh... I vaguely remember there being some ledges on that route!
*'''Accumula Gate?'''
:Accumula Gate is, um, well... Ummm... Does anything make it different from any other gate?
*'''Accumula Town?'''
:Accumula Town! I remember hearing the pretty sound of someone playing an instrument there.
*'''Route 1?'''
:Route 1... Um, now, what was there? Oh, that's right! Using Surf will take you to an unexpected place!
*'''Nuvema Town?'''
:Wow, Nuvema Town? You must be going to the Juniper Pokémon Lab then, right? Or could you be going to visit my friend's house?
*'''Route 17?'''
:Route 17, is it? The current was so fast, I couldn't go where I wanted...
*'''Route 18?'''
:Route 18! The most interesting thing about it... What could it be?
*'''P2 Laboratory?'''
:P2 Laboratory? I don't know much about that. Could that be the lab on Route 17?
*'''Good-bye.
:OK! Take good care of yourself!

[[Lola]], {{an|Brock}}'s mom, was, for a time, running the [[Pewter City]] [[Gym]] while Brock was traveling with Ash on his journey. She is an adept Trainer, however her insistence on using {{type|Water}} Pokémon—including attempting to shift [[Pewter City]]'s [[Gym]]'s traditional type from {{t|Rock}} to {{t|Water}}—is something she and Brock have butted heads over.

[[Caroline]], {{an|May}}'s mom, is also shown to travel a bit to watch her daughter's competitions in the [[Grand Festival]]s. Unlike her game counterpart, however, she lives in [[Petalburg City]]. She also seems to have Pokémon; however, they are never shown.

Silver to train, {{tt|smacking her|glaring at her in some translations}} in process. She reappears in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} where she gives Crystal a new set of clothes (against her will) based on the outfit that {{ga|Lyra}} wears.

* [[Generation V]] is the only [[Generation]] that introduced two different mother characters for the player. However, {{game3|Black 2 and White 2|Black 2 and White 2|s|2}} are not the first games in which two mother characters are accessible.

The {{player}}'s '''mom ''' (Japanese: '''おかあさん''' ''mother'') is a character in every [[version|main series]] {{pkmn|games|Pokémon game}}. Although different each time, she will always be the one to see her child off on his or her journey with his or her [[starter Pokémon]].

==In the games==
In the games, when players speaks to their mother, she will heal the [[party]], as there is no [[Pokémon Center]] in the town; this is not the case in Johto, in which [[Professor Elm]]'s lab has a healing machine, and [[Unova]] in Black 2 and White 2, in which [[Aspertia City]] has a Pokémon Center. In Johto the player's mother will not heal the party, but in Aspertia City, she will. The player's mother may also do several other things specific to the game. When the player is setting off on his or her journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]], the player's mother will typically give him/her the [[Running Shoes]] as a gift, either in person or via a messenger, reading the provided instructions as well.

===[[Kanto]]===
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Red}} or {{ga|Leaf}}. In [[Generation I]] and {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, at the beginning of the games, she will inform the player that [[Professor Oak]] wants to see the player. After that, she will heal the player's Pokémon when talked to. This same mother also appears in Generation II and HeartGold and SoulSilver, telling the player how worried she is about {{ga|Red}}, her son, but also how proud she is of him.

=====Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal=====
*First time
:''"Hi! <sc>{{ga|Red}}</sc>'s been away for a long time. He hasn't called either, so I have no idea where he is or what he's been doing. They say that no word is proof that he's doing fine, but I do worry about him."''

:''"I worry about <sc>Red</sc> getting hurt or sick, but he's a boy. I'm proud that he is doing what he wants to do."''
=====Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen=====

*Letter attached to pair of [[Running Shoes]]
:''"Dear <player>, Here is a pair of <sc>Running Shoes</sc> for my beloved challenger. Remember, I'll always cheer for you! Don't ever give up! From Mom"''
===[[Johto]]===
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Ethan}}, {{ga|Kris}}, or {{ga|Lyra}}. In [[Generation II]] and {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player's mother informs them that the [[Pokégear]] has returned from the repair shop. In Generation II, she then helps set the [[days of the week|day of the week]]. She will save the player's money, so that a quarter of the money won from each battle is automatically sent to her, and money can be deposited and withdrawn from her. She occasionally buys [[decoration]]s{{sup/2|GSC}}, {{cat|damage-reducing Berries}}{{sup/4|HGSS}} or other items (listed below) with the player's money, then apologizes for spending the money she is saving. Her cooking specialty is the Cinnabar Volcano Burger.

===[[Hoenn]]===
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Brendan}} or {{ga|May}} and the wife of [[Norman]]. In [[Generation III]], the player's mother helps the player move in, and instructs them to set the [[time]] on the clock upstairs and to make sure that everything is on their desk. When the player comes back downstairs, she will say that [[Norman|the player's father]] is on TV; however, the player just missed him.

When the player defeats [[Norman]], she will give an {{DL|In-battle effect item|Amulet Coin}} as a reward.

After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], a news report will be on TV. It will announce that a Pokémon is roaming the Hoenn region, which will be either {{p|Latias}}{{sup/3|Sa}}, {{p|Latios}}{{sup/3|Ru}}, or it will not distinguish which of the [[eon duo]] is the roaming Pokémon{{sup/3|E}}, due to static interference. In {{v2|Emerald}}, the player's mother will ask if the news report was either about a red creature (Latias) or a blue creature (Latios). The one chosen will then roam Hoenn.

Johanna is the mother of {{ga|Lucas}} or {{ga|Dawn}}. In [[Generation IV]], the player's mother takes on an active lifestyle, competing in [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s in [[Hearthome City]] at times. She gives the player a tuxedo or a dress when they meet at the {{pkmn|Super Contest}} Hall. She also gives the player a {{key|IV|Journal}} at the beginning of the game.

===[[Unova]]===
====[[Nuvema Town]]====
This mother is the mother of {{ga|Hilbert}} or {{ga|Hilda}}. She lives in [[Nuvema Town]], and she met her husband while he was on his own [[Pokémon journey]]. Apparently she was once a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and had a journey of her own.

She mostly stays at home but leaves at one point to deliver the [[Running Shoes]]. [[Looker]] dresses up as her in the player's house after the defeat of [[Team Plasma]].

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, much like Red's mother in Generation II and IV, she still resides in the same house and tells the player that her {{ga|Hilbert|son}}/{{ga|Hilda|daughter}} is out in another region looking for [[N]].

If [[Memory Link]] has been activated, she will refer to her son/daughter by the player's name from the game the input friend code is from. Otherwise, she will not refer to them by a name, but rather as her child.

::::'''No:''' ''"I don't mean to be selfish, but I'd like it if you were a bit more agreeable. Having a Pokédex means travelling around the world! Think about that for a second. So I'll ask you again... You want a Pokédex, right?"''
::::'''Yes:''' ''"OK! Step two completed! <Player>! Your course of action has been set! A girl names Bianca has come here to meet you! She's Professor Juniper's assistant. I was told to simple look for a big, green hat! That's right! You're going to look for Bianca. And then you'll get a Pokédex and a Pokémon to be your partner! Oh! Your [[Xtransceiver]]'s in your Bag right? Do you know how to open your Bag?"''
:::::'''No:''' ''"I'll send you off with these words from "Adventure Rules." "The X Button is vitally important for Trainers." OK! Off with you now! Go look for Bianca, OK!"''
:::::'''Yes:''' ''"The girl's name is Bianca. I was told you should look for a big, green hat! She might be lost because this is her first time here. Go look for her!"''

*Outside the [[Pokémon Center]]:
:''"Oh! Nice to meet you! You must be Bianca, right? And <player> picked {{tt|[[Snivy]]/[[Tepig]]/[[Oshawott]]|Depending on starter chosen.}}, then? Hee hee. Looking good!"''
:''"Oh! I almost forgot! Here! Take these! They're Running Shoes!"''
:''"A perfect fit! I'll read the instructions for you! "Hold the B Button to run faster than normal. Put on the Running Shoes and race around to your heart's content!" Now, you and {{tt|Snivy/Tepig/Oshawott|Depending on starter chosen.}} can run anywhere you want!"''
:''"That's a good idea! Even if it is a single road to the ocean, having a Town Map is always nice. I mean, if you use a Town Map, you'll know all about what the Unova region is like!"''
:''"Bon voyage! Take {{tt|Snivy/Tepig/Oshawott|Depending on starter chosen.}} and see many different Pokémon and people with your own eyes!"''

'''Xtranceiver'''

*When the player hangs up
:''"OK! Take care of yourself!"''
*General talk
:''"There are many different Pokémon, and even the same kind of Pokémon have individuals with comepletely different Natures! I wonder what kind of Pokémon is a perfect match for you."''
*[[Virbank City]]
:''"Hi! It's your mom! Where are you right now? Wow, Virbank City! There's a complex there, right? Have you been there yet? The way it looks at night is really quite nice! And you can also train your Pokémon there! You know, your Pokémon can do some things and you can do others. I hope you can all work together and accomplish amazing things!"''

:Route 19 is right outside of Aspertia. I guess you could say it's a valley road.
*'''Flocessy Town?'''
:You're in Flocessy Town for a spell? Did you visit Alder's house? A long time ago, Alder taught me about Pokémon! Boy, that takes me back!
*'''Pledge Grove?'''
:Pledge Grove? Oh. The one in Flocessy Town! The marks on that rock just have to have been made by Pokémon!
*'''Route 20?'''
:Route 20 is a place where you can enjoy the changing of the seasons. My favorite season is fall! You know, the foliage, the colors... Ah...
*'''Flocessy Ranch?'''
:The ranch! Apparently, when I was little, I rode a Pokémon and everyone got really mad! But I was just a little kid, and I don't remember that at all!
*'''Cave of Being?'''
:The Cave of Being. Ah, yes, I recall it. I wonder what's in there. Apparently, it's a strange place with nothing inside.
*'''Virbank Gate?'''
:Virbank Gate, and... Gates are pretty much the same anywhere, wouldn't you say?'''
*'''Virbank City?'''
:Virbank City! You went to a music club? Recently, I've been getting into Roxie's band! When I listen to them, I feel so full of energy!
*'''Virbank Complex?'''
:Virbank Complex? What, are you helping someone work? Still, I sure remember how pretty it looked at night!
*'''Pokéstar Studios?'''
:Pokéstar Studios! What?! You're going to be in a movie? Well, I'll have to go see it! Oh, a little advice--acting is all about being natural!
*'''Castelia City?'''
:Castelia City! There's just too much to see there! You might want to participate in the Castelia Harlequin Hunt! That's a great way to see the sights. Other than that... Try exploring on your own! Exploring is one of the most fun things about arriving in a new city!
*'''Castelia Sewers?'''
:Castelia Sewers. That's just another way to say it's Castelia City's sewer system. I'm sorry I can't help more. I know about it, but I've never been. But, listen! I've heard there's a secret place located at the far end of the sewer!
*'''Relic Passage?'''
:Relic Passage... As the name suggests, it's an underground passage built long ago. If you pass through it, maybe you'll find out who made it and why!
*'''Liberty Garden?'''
:Where are you now? In Liberty Garden? Two years ago, it became really famous when a mythical Pokémon was found there!
*'''Unity Tower?'''
:Unity Tower! If you've traded Pokémon with people from other countries, you should definitely visit!

*'''Route 4?'''
:Wow! Route 4! Always a lot going on over there. Things like construction and people finding ruins.
*'''Desert Resort?'''
:Watch out for sandstorms in the Desert Resort! Some types of Pokémon will take constant damage in them!
*'''Route Gate?'''
:Route Gate? Hee hee. There are two gates called Route Gates. The first one is off Route 1, and the other is close to the Desert Resort!
*'''Relic Castle?'''
:The Relic Castle, you say? You'll get buried in sand! You already know this, right? If you run onto pits in this sand, you'll fall through them!
*'''Join Avenue?'''
:You're in Join Avenue? I think the way stores come and go is romantic, somehow.
*'''Nimbasa City?'''
:Nimbasa City is the city of entertainment! Working at the Pokémon Center there was sure a lot of fun. Well, now... Big Stadium and Small Court are packed with tough Trainers. There are so many other things to see and do! Enjoy yourself!
*'''Gear Station?'''
:Gear Station, then? The trains to Anville Town get overlooked more often than you'd expect! If you have time, you should take a ride!
*'''Musical Theater'''
:Musical Theater! Hee hee hee! I used to go there often, too! I only went to watch, though! The Pokémon look so cute with their accessories and dancing!
*'''Anville Town'''
:Anville Town! What? Were you a big fan of trains? Still, I understand how you feel.
*'''Nimbasa Gate?'''
:The Nimbasa Gates, you say? For some odd reason, I like the one on the right!
*'''Route 16?'''
:Route 16, huh... You sure don't expect to find a forest like that so close to Nimbasa City, do you? I wonder what the Lostlorn Forest is like these days.
*'''Lostlorn Forest?'''
:Lostlorn Forest? I think it may have been the work of a Pokémon...
*'''Route 5?'''
:I used to slip out of the Pokémon Center from time to time and go watch the performers on Route 5. While I was there, I met many people, such as a girl who would buy items.
*'''Hidden Grotto?'''
:A Hidden Grotto…? I have no idea what that is! Honestly, I'm not hiding anything!
*'''Driftveil Drawbridge?'''
:The Driftveil Drawbridge, eh? I've always wanted to see the bridge opening and closing.
*'''Driftveil City?'''
:Driftveil City! Recently, hotels have been popping up there like crazy, so I hear. Boy, other than that, I sure don't know much about it!
*'''PWT?'''
:The Pokémon World Tournament? Oh, so you are in Driftveil. What are you going to do? Did you enter the tournament? I'll be cheering for you on TV!
*'''Plasma Frigate?'''
:''No one can be called''
*'''Clay Tunnel?'''
:Clay Tunnel, huh? I heard Clay kept on digging no matter what. I wonder what it is about digging that is so captivating to some folks. I heard there is someone who loves digging in the Sinnoh region as well.
*'''Underground Ruins?'''
:What? The Underground Ruins? I've never heard of such a place. Should I go take a peek and see what's going on there?
*'''Rock Peak Chamber?'''

*'''Chargestone Cave?'''
:What's this? I'm hearing a buzzing noise. What? Chargestone Cave? Wow! The Xtransceiver works in there? I never knew that!
*'''Mistralton City?'''
:Mistralton City always makes me think of Skyla! People who had been hurt by the device in her Pokémon Gym would come to the Pokémon Center.
*'''Route 7?'''
:Route 7 has those raised walkways. If you stop, you fall right off! Also, I seem to remember an unexpected Pokémon popping out of the tall grass.
*'''Celestial Tower?'''
:The Celestial Tower... A final resting place for Pokémon. I'm sure some kind soul will ring the bell today.
*'''Twist Mountain?'''
:I'm having a hard time hearing you… Twist Mountain? Oh, now I see! You're in Clay's mountain, then. I've heard you can find Fossils there!
*'''Lentimas Town?'''
:Lentimas Town is close to Reversal Mountain. It's small, but it has an air of uniqueness that makes it surprisingly popular!
*'''Strange House?'''
:The Strange House?! Wow, I know that place! It's a mysterious place close to Reversal Mountain. Know where I mean? Hmm. Maybe there are ghosts there…
*'''Reversal Mountain?'''
:Reversal Mountain! So many Trainers arrived at the Pokémon Center completely wiped out! Be careful, okay?
*'''Undella Town?'''
:Undella Town, Undella Town. A very rich family used to live there, but it looks like everyone moved. I hear the Marine Tube is totally amazing!
*'''Undella Gate?'''
:Undella Gate is a vertical gate. The fact that it's not really different from a horizontal gate is one of the great things about gates!
*'''Route 13?'''
:My impression of Route 13 is that it's rather long! I remember the main route's being hard to find, but it's nice because you can go many places!
*'''Lacunosa Town?'''
:Lacunosa Town... Oh, my word. What made an impression on me when I visited that town was that it was completely different from day to night.
*'''Route 12?'''
:Route 12's gently sloping hills roll up and down, up and down. Strolling across them is a nice feeling!
*'''Village Bridge?'''
:Recently, the Village Bridge has changed a bit, and there are things like tennis courts there. There's no Pokémon Center, though. I haven't really gotten used to it yet.
*'''Route 11?'''
:Route 11 is just like Route 14. Waterfall time!
*'''Opelucid Gate?'''
:Opelucid Gate, really? Er... I seem to remember a man who was always eating something by one of those gates.
*'''Opelucid City?'''
:Opelucid City! That's a great city! I heard that the mayor, Drayden, can teach an amazing Dragon-type move!
*'''Route 9?'''
:Route 9, huh. The toughs that hang out there might challenge you to a Pokémon battle. But you're a tough Trainer yourself, so that works out great for you!
*'''Shopping Mall?'''
:A Shopping Mall? Hm. Now, I wonder why the first thing that came to mind was the storeroom!
*'''Route 14?'''
:You're on Route 14? Then...use Waterfall, right?!
*'''Abundant Shrine?'''
:Now, hm, the Abundant Shrine? The shrine honors the weather Pokémon that is said to watch over harvests...
*'''Undella Bay?'''
:Undella Bay is a famous place to dive! And, on the bottom of the sea... Well, you should see for yourself!
*'''Abyssal Ruins?'''
:The Abyssal Ruins! A mysterious, ancient script! And if you solve its secret, please tell me what it is!
*'''Seaside Cave?'''
:The Seaside Cave, so, so, so... At some point, waves, wind, and Pokémon made that cave in that giant rock.
*'''Marine Tube?'''
:Wow, the Marine Tube! It was just finished recently, I think! It's like a walk-through aquarium! I really want to go see it!
*'''Route 21?'''
:I guess you could say Route 21 is very rocky. It's like a maze. You might find it surprisingly hard to make progress!
*'''Humilau City?'''
:Oh my! You're in Humilau City? That's the nicest of all the resort areas in the Unova region! I was only at the Pokémon Center in that town for a short while.
*'''Route 22?'''
:Route 22 is very lush and green. So that could well indicate that you'll find many different Pokémon there.
*'''Giant Chasm?'''
:The Giant Chasm? Where is that? Where the meteor fell? What? Is that not it? I think I heard something like that from Professor Juniper once, though...
*'''Route 23?'''
:Route 23, huh... It's the last great natural area in the Unova region. Apparently, the path is so steep and dangerous that some people go on and on about it.
*'''Victory Road?'''
:Victory Road! The road that puts you to the test! You'll be fine! You've got Pokémon by your side!
*'''Pokémon League?'''
:The Pokémon League! Oh, my goodness! So, you just have to challenge the Elite Four, and then... Believe in your Pokémon and move forward!
*'''N's Castle?'''
:Pardon me? Where? N's Castle? I'm sorry... I've never heard of it.
*'''Tubeline Bridge?'''
:Did you feel the vibrations of the Tubeline Bridge on the bottom of your feet? It feels like those vibrations give you energy. I just love that feeling!
*'''Route 8?'''
:Route 8's puddles freeze in winter. I liked how you could slide on them, but it was a bit hard to make forward progress!
*'''Moor of Icirrus?'''
:Moor of Icirrus... Moor of Icirrus... What is it? I've heard of it, but I've never been there...
*'''Icirrus City?'''
:Icirrus City, huh... The way the seasons change there is nice. I particularly like how it looks in winter.
*'''Dragonspiral Tower?'''
:Dragonspiral Tower! Wow! You can go inside? Isn't that the place where they say the legendary Pokémon is resting?
*'''Marvelous Bridge?'''
:The Marvelous Bridge has a futuristic design. But I've heard rumors of a ghost there...
*'''Route 15?'''
:Wow, Route 15... The highlight is the Poké Transfer Lab. And I think there was a lady there who would trade Pokémon. Hmm... Could I have misremembered?
*'''Poké Transfer Lab?'''
:The Poké Transfer Lab! Helping Professor Park is a lot of fun, isn't it?
*'''Black Gate?'''
:Black Gate! Pass on through, pass on through to the expansive Black City! So... Yeah... There isn't a ton to say about gates.
*'''White Gate?'''
:White Gate! Pass on through, pass on through to the expansive White Forest! So... Yeah... There isn't a ton to say about gates.
*'''Black City?'''
:Black City, huh? I wonder how it has changed.
*'''White Forest?'''
:White Forest, huh? I wonder how it has changed.
*'''Black Tower?'''
:The Black Tower! The so-called Unova's Challenge! How far can you get? With those Pokémon at your side, I'm sure you won't have any trouble!
*'''White Treehollow?'''
:The White Treehollow! The so-called Unova's Challenge! How far can you get? With those Pokémon at your side, I'm sure you won't have any trouble!
*'''Entralink?'''
:''Juniper's words echo, so it cannot be used''
*'''Skyarrow Bridge?'''
:The Skyarrow Bridge is sure amazing. When I saw that the first time... That's right, saw it, not crossed it. I guess at the time I was just astonished.
*'''Pinwheel Forest?'''
:Bug-type Pokémon can be found all over Pinwheel Forest. By the way, it never bugs me to see Bug-type Pokémon!
*'''Nacrene City?'''
:I really like Nacrene City's warehouses, especially Café Warehouse! But, actually, the place you absolutely must visit is the Nacrene Museum.
*'''Nacrene Gate?'''
:Nacrene Gate is a very gate-y gate! Unless you're super obsessed with gates, you can't really tell the difference, though.
*'''Route 3?'''
:The Day Care is on Route 3. There's a preschool there too, right? And what was that other place called? Wellspring Cave, was it? It's on that same route.
*'''Wellspring Cave?'''
:Wellspring Cave... It's small, but exploring deep within the cave is surprisingly difficult.
*'''Striaton City?'''
:I recommend the restaurant in Striaton City! It's run by former Gym Leaders, so I'm sure it's amazing!
*'''Dreamyard?'''
:The Dreamyard... I've heard that rarely seen Pokémon go there. A mysterious power remains that draws them there.
*'''Route 2?'''
:Route 2, eh... I vaguely remember there being some ledges on that route!
*'''Accumula Gate?'''
:Accumula Gate is, um, well... Ummm... Does anything make it different from any other gate?
*'''Accumula Town?'''
:Accumula Town! I remember hearing the pretty sound of someone playing an instrument there.
*'''Route 1?'''
:Route 1... Um, now, what was there? Oh, that's right! Using Surf will take you to an unexpected place!
*'''Nuvema Town?'''
:Wow, Nuvema Town? You must be going to the Juniper Pokémon Lab then, right? Or could you be going to visit my friend's house?
*'''Route 17?'''
:Route 17, is it? The current was so fast, I couldn't go where I wanted...
*'''Route 18?'''
:Route 18! The most interesting thing about it... What could it be?
*'''P2 Laboratory?'''
:P2 Laboratory? I don't know much about that. Could that be the lab on Route 17?
*'''Good-bye.
:OK! Take good care of yourself!

Rakutsu is a member of the International Police who is tasked with searching for members of the villainous group Team Plasma. When on the job, he acts like a womanizer by constantly flirting with the girls around him. When he is not on the job, he takes on a more serious and professional persona.

==History==
{{spoilers}}

Rakutsu makes his first appearance breaking up with a teary [[Yancy]], as they both feel that their relationship is interfering with her career as an idol. Afterward, he travels to the [[Aspertia Gym]] with Petashi to start their class at the [[Pokémon academy|Trainer's School]]. Upon arriving, [[Hugh]] gets angry at Rakutsu and exclaims that he needs to focus more on making himself stronger instead of flirting with girls.

Annoyed by their disrupting the class, the new teacher, {{adv|Cheren}}, forces the three to stand outside while the class is still in session. Soon after, the three encounter a new classmate named [[Faitsu]]. While she informs the class about herself, Rakutsu takes the time to write down what she is saying in his notebook, much to Hugh's annoyance. The three get into another argument, leading Cheren to decide that it would be best for the entire class to battle each other.

Rakutsu and Faitsu both manage to win, which earns them two Pokédexes from {{adv|Bianca}}. Although reluctant at first, Faitsu is coaxed into taking her Pokédex after Rakutsu sweet-talks her into it. Later, Rakutsu reveals that he is searching for [[Team Plasma]] members and crosses out Yancy and his classmates because he has considered all of them as having no connection to the team. He is approached by [[Looker]], who had been searching for him. After defeating a {{p|Scolipede}} that attacked Looker, Rakutsu reveals that he is actually Looker's superior in the International Police.

Pokédex holder

2013-07-03T20:20:04Z

Duke R: /* Unova Pokédex holders */ Rewording.

[[File:Emerald chapter.png|thumb|right|300px|The Pokédex holders and their main Pokémon as of the {{chap|Emerald}}]]
'''Pokédex holder''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン図鑑所有者''', ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia owner''), known as '''Pokédex owner''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, is the term used by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}} to describe a {{pkmn|Trainer}} that has been given a [[Pokédex]]. These Trainers are often very gifted in one particular area, dubbed each's "special skill" by Professor Oak to the ones who received a Pokédex from him. These Trainers all have [[starter Pokémon]] from their regional [[Pokémon Professor]]s, though most already owned or trained Pokémon prior to receiving them.

The Pokédex holders have become a very tight knit group with many of them bonding with their cohorts in their regional adventures and later with their seniors and juniors. In the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} the holders from [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] grouped to fight the [[Masked Man]]. During the {{chap|Emerald}}, the 10 first Pokédex holders reunited at the [[Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Frontier]] to fight against [[Guile Hideout]].

==Kanto Pokédex holders==
[[File:Red Blue Green Yellow Adventures.png|250px|thumb|right|Red, Yellow, Green and Blue]]
===Red - the Fighter===
{{main|Red (Adventures)}}
Red received his Pokédex from Professor Oak after an incident in which all the Pokémon from his [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|Laboratory]] were released. One of the Pokémon that escaped was a [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] that was refusing to be caught and hid inside the [[Viridian Gym]]. When Red went inside the Gym, a {{p|Machoke}} attacked. Red managed to use the few sunlight coming from a window to order Bulbasaur's {{m|SolarBeam}} and defeat the foe. Professor Oak watched what happened and, amazed by his battling skills, gave him the Bulbasaur and a Pokédex. During the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen|fifth chapter}}, Red, along with Green and Blue, got upgraded Pokédexes. His old Pokédex was the only one not destroyed, and was given to Yellow.

Red won the [[Pokémon League]] and became a {{pkmn|Champion}}. He is able to precisely take quick decisions during a {{pkmn|battle}}, turning the movements of opponents against themselves. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Fighter''' (Japanese: '''戦う者''' ''Fighter'').

===Blue - the Trainer===
{{main|Blue (Adventures)}}
Blue Oak is the grandson of Professor Oak and was the first to receive a Pokédex. His Pokédex was first seen in [[Viridian Forest]], where Blue was seen using it to gather data on the Pokémon he was catching. During a battle against a {{p|Kangaskhan}}, he pulled his Pokédex and noticed that Red was also given one by his grandfather. Much to his disdain, as he knew someone also received a Pokédex, but not a Trainer like Red. In the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, his Pokédex got destroyed along with Green's, but was later replaced by an upgraded Pokédex.

Through tough {{pkmn|training}}, Blue increases the [[level]] of his Pokémon, making them apt to dispute in battles against the best Trainers, even using the ones he raised from scratch. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Trainer''' (Japanese: '''育てる者''' ''Trainer'').

===Green - the Evolver===
{{main|Green (Adventures)}}
The first time Green went in Professor Oak's Laboratory was when she stole his [[Blasty|Squirtle]]. Later, at the Pokémon League semi-finals, Green had a battle against Dr. O, who used a team of bird Pokémon, knowing the ornithophobia she acquired after being kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh|a bird Pokémon}} at the age of five. After being defeated by him, his true identity was revealed to be Professor Oak himself, who already knew of her coming from the beginning and had let her steal his Pokémon since it was already intended to be hers. Then, he handed over her own Pokédex. During the fifth chapter, she, Red, and Blue received upgraded Pokédexes. However, her old one was destroyed along with Blue's.

During the time she was kidnapped, Green was prepared to develop her knowledge on Pokémon [[evolution]], having won important battles with the appropriate use of [[evolutionary stone]]s. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''Evolver''' (Japanese: '''化える者''' ''Evolver'').

===Yellow - the Healer===
{{main|Yellow (Adventures)}}
Yellow showed up in Professor Oak's Lab after seeing a hurt [[Pika]] to find out Red's whereabouts. The Professor refused to let Yellow go with Pika and attacked with his {{p|Spearow}}, to what {{adv|Yellow|Dody}} countered in a way that neither Pokémon was hurt in the end. Impressed by the connection with Pokémon and their instinct in trusting Yellow, the Professor decided that he should also trust Yellow and gave Red's Pokédex to Yellow to deliver to him. By the end of the fifth chapter, Red, Blue and Green had received upgraded Pokédexes. Since Blue's and Green's were destroyed by {{adv|Deoxys}}, Red's Pokédex was the only one still working; Red gave this Pokédex to Yellow while she was unconscious.

As a native of Viridian Forest, Yellow has special abilities such as [[Viridian Forest#In the Pokémon Adventures manga|healing with a touch]]. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''Healer''' (Japanese: '''癒やす者''' ''Healer'').

==Johto Pokédex holders==
[[File:Gold Silver Crystal HGSS Adventures.png|thumb|right|Crystal, Gold and Silver]]
===Gold - the Hatcher===
{{main|Gold (Adventures)}}

When Professor Oak told how the Pokédex can be used in battle, Gold asked for one. The Professor said that Pokédexes are meant for research purposes, and the ones he trusted the device were responsible young people who were willing to help others with their strengths, unlike Gold that only cares about his goal and would reduce it to a tool in battle. After much insistence, the Professor asked how Gold sees his Pokémon, to what the boy replied that they are his "partners". For the good answer, the Pokédex was given to him. During the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver|ninth chapter}}, Gold received an upgraded Pokédex.

Gold's ability as a Pokédex holder was the last to be revealed in the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. While he desperately wondered what was his specialty, the Egg he was holding hatched given his {{pkmn|breeding#Hatching eggs|will to protect it}}. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''{{tt|Hatcher|Breeder in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''孵す者''' ''Hatcher'').

===Silver - the Exchanger===
{{main|Silver (Adventures)}}

Silver's Pokédex was first seen during his battle against Gold and then used against {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Later in the story, Professor Oak explained that it was stolen from his 2nd Research Center in [[Cherrygrove City]], the same way that Silver stole the [[Silver's Feraligatr|Totodile]] from [[Professor Elm]]'s Lab in [[New Bark Town]]. He guessed that Silver was the thief after hearing from Green about the time she and he were under the [[Masked Man]]'s control. During the ''HeartGold & SoulSilver'' chapter, Silver received an upgraded Pokédex.

During the time he was kidnapped, Silver was prepared to develop his knowledge on Pokémon [[trade]]s, with many of the Pokémon in his team obtained or evolved through trades. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Exchanger''' (Japanese: '''換える者''' ''Exchanger'').

===Crystal - the Catcher===
{{main|Crystal (Adventures)}}

While Professor Oak was looking for a reliable Trainer to collect Pokémon data for him, he got information from {{adv|Bill}} that there was a catcher who would do it for something in return. When the Professor went to [[Earl Dervish]]'s [[Pokémon academy]] for the meeting, a bunch of {{p|Slugma}} attacked a little girl. To protect her, a girl named Crystal used her Pokémon and [[Poké Ball#Level Ball|special Poké Balls]] to catch them all. Amazed by her catching skills, he gave her a Pokédex and, in return, repaired the old academy. During the ninth chapter, Crystal received an upgraded Pokédex.

Crystal is the only holder that actually attempts to fill the Pokédex with data, and went through special training since she was very young, having [[caught Pokémon]] by hundreds. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''{{tt|Catcher|Capturer in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''捕える者''' ''Capturer'').

==Hoenn Pokédex holders==
[[File:PS325.png|200px|thumb|right|Sapphire, Emerald and Ruby]]
===Ruby - Charm===
{{main|Ruby (Adventures)}}

Ruby accidentally kept the Pokédex that [[Professor Birch]] had for his fieldwork to help him defeat the two {{p|Mightyena}} that were attacking him. When Ruby was going to retrieve the Professor's bag, his [[Running Shoes]] activated and he fell from a cliff, being saved and taken to a cave by Sapphire. Ruby left her with a letter, telling her to return her father's goods, but forgot the Pokédex in his pocket. In [[Oldale Town]], when he was attacked by a {{p|Dustox}}, the Pokédex resonated and once again helped Ruby to defeat the Pokémon. He decided to keep it so that he could escape in time from the new Pokémon he would meet.

Whether obtaining {{pkmn|Contest}} {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Hoenn Contest Ribbons|Ribbons}} or fighting against enemies, Ruby always prioritizes '''charm''' (Japanese: '''魅せる''') in his actions, this being his special skill.

===Sapphire - Quest===
{{main|Sapphire (Adventures)}}

Sapphire Birch is Professor Birch's daughter. While she was doing fieldwork, Sapphire saw Ruby falling down from a cliff and got him by swinging on hanging vines. She took him to her [[secret base]], where they started a scuffle over their different views on Pokémon. In the middle of their battle, a {{p|Seviper}} appeared and attacked them. In order to defeat it, she used a Pokédex to get data about the Pokémon. She explained to Ruby that she was keeping it to help her father in his researches. When her quest on challenging all [[Gym]]s in [[Hoenn]] started, Sapphire took the Pokédex with her.

Sapphire accomplished the feat of obtaining all 8 {{DL|Badge|Hoenn League|Gym Badges}} in 80 days. Her special skill consists of always mastering whatever she '''quests for''' (Japanese: '''究める''').

===Emerald - Calm===
{{main|Emerald (Adventures)}}

Emerald was recommended by the [[Trick Master]] to live in Earl Dervish's Pokémon academy, to overcome the bullying he suffered, which made him reluctant to interact with other children and with Pokémon. When Emerald arrived at the academy, he was impressed by Crystal's dedication for others, working hard to fulfill the Pokédex for Professor Oak to get repairs in the building and new clothes for the homeless children in return. He then decided to ask for a Pokédex so that he could also help others. In the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], Emerald called the Professor with a message saying that he wanted a Pokédex so that he could live together with Pokémon. Yet, Professor Oak registered Emerald as the owner of the Pokédex but didn't give it to him, saying that he lied about wanting to be with Pokémon, since Earl declared that he avoids any contact with them. Only when Emerald found his own path in relating with Pokémon, the Professor accepted to give him the Pokédex. He then had to head to Hoenn, where his Pokédex was with Professor Birch.

One of the {{DL|Emerald (Adventures)|gadgets}} used by Emerald shoots dirt from a Pokémon's birthplace around it, acting similar to a [[Capture Styler]]. This method defines Emerald's special skill to '''calm''' (Japanese: '''鎮める''') rampant Pokémon down.

==Sinnoh Pokédex holders==
[[File:Diamond Pearl Platinum Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|Pearl, Platinum and Diamond]]
As a member of nobility, {{adv|Platinum|Lady Berlitz}} must meet the tradition of making an artifact from materials found on the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]], as the other heirs of her family. For the journey, [[Professor Rowan]] gave her a suitcase with three Pokédexes, [[Pokétch]]es and the three Sinnoh starters to be used by the Lady and the two bodyguards hired by her father, that she was supposed to meet in front of [[Jubilife Condominiums]].

'''{{adv|Diamond}}''' and '''{{adv|Pearl}}''' are childhood friends from [[Twinleaf Town]] that aim to become masters of comedy. They took part in a contest held by [[Jubilife TV]] that would reward the best stand-up comedians, but failed in their performance. However, they received a special prize for their peculiar humor, tickets for a travel. Before opening the envelope with the tickets, they bumped against Professor Rowan and his assistant (Lady Berlitz's father) in the middle of a crowd and ended up having their envelope exchanged with the one containing instructions for the Lady's bodyguards on their travel to Mt. Coronet. Arriving at the meeting point, they assumed she was a tour guide for their trip, while she thought they were her bodyguards, giving each a Pokémon, a Pokétch and a Pokédex. The trio traveled around [[Sinnoh]] until the misunderstanding was clarified, when she decided to reveal her first name, '''{{adv|Platinum}}'''.

Their special skills match the [[lake guardians]] they have bonded with. Diamond is guided by the {{p|Mesprit|emotion}} he '''feels''' (Japanese: '''感じる'''), Pearl is full of {{p|Azelf|willpower}} on whatever he '''intends''' (Japanese: '''志す''') to do, and Platinum '''knows''' (Japanese: '''知る''') about various subjects due to the outstanding {{p|Uxie|knowledge}} she is imbued with.

==Unova Pokédex holders==
[[File:Black White Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|White and Black]]
===Black - Dream===
{{main|Black (Adventures)}}

[[Professor Juniper]] sent a package with three Pokédexes and three Pokémon to Black, {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}}. The box was supposed to be delivered at Black's house, but he was so eager to receive it that waited all night outside the Juniper Pokémon Lab. When the deliveryman gave the package to him, he opened it to choose his starter before his friends. But as it rained the day before, Black was drenched and sneezed on the box, releasing the three Pokémon and letting two of the Pokédexes fall on a pond. He went after [[Buoh|one of the Pokémon]] that escaped and started his adventure, leaving Cheren and Bianca behind with two broken Pokédexes.

Since his childhood, Black is devoted to his objective of winning the [[Unova League]] to become the Champion. His dedication to the '''dream''' (Japanese: '''夢みる''') he follows is his special skill.

===White===
{{main|White (Adventures)}}

During Black's journey, he ended up working for White, the president of the [[BW Agency]]. She managed Pokémon actors for movies but had never trained a single Pokémon before. Later on, White learned the qualifications of a Pokémon Trainer from the very beginning, such as catching, battling and evolving. When she already had a full team of six Pokémon, Bianca gave White her Pokédex and she became a Pokédex holder.

===Rakutsu===
{{main|Rakutsu}}
Rakutsu is an [[International Police]] agent that was infiltrated in [[Aspertia City]]'s [[Trainer's School]], where he studied with [[Hugh]] and {{tc|Poké Maniac|Petashi}}. After they got into an argument, the teacher, Cheren, sent them outside the class. In the hallway, they got into another argument, so Cheren decided to have a practical battle exercise, making the entire class battle each other. At the end, Cheren revealed the exercise was a test to find the best Trainers of his class. Bianca then appeared to them and, since Rakutsu ended up as one of the winners, she gave him a Pokédex.

===Faitsu===
{{main|Faitsu}}
Faitsu moved with her [[Mom|mother]] to Aspertia City, so she could be away from the events that occurred when she was a member of [[Team Plasma]]. On her first day at the Trainer's School, she had to battle her classmates in a practical battle class. Although Faitsu didn't want to draw attention to her, she ended up winning and was rewarded a Pokédex from Bianca. At first she did not want it, but the other winner, Rakutsu, convinced her to take it.

==Former Pokédex holders==
===Wally===
{{main|Wally (Adventures)}}

Wally found Professor Birch's bag adrift in the sea during the flood caused by {{p|Kyogre}}'s rampage. Inside the bag was a Pokédex and a [[Emerald's Sceptile|Treecko]]. Wally temporarily used the Pokédex and the Pokémon when he was helping [[Norman]] to awaken {{p|Rayquaza}} in the [[Sky Pillar]]. After the cataclysmic battle between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}} ceased, Wally sent the Pokédex back to Professor Birch, who gave it to its registered owner, Emerald.

In the magazine releases of Pokémon Adventures, there was a scene in which Wally was registered as owner of the Pokédex he found. This scene did not appear in the volume releases, turning him into a mere user of Emerald's Pokédex.

===Bianca===
{{main|Bianca (Adventures)}}

Bianca, along with Cheren and Black, was chosen by Professor Juniper to fill the Pokédex with data. Even though Black made her Pokédex unusable, Bianca left on her journey, sometimes meeting with Cheren, Black and/or White. When her Pokédex was fixed, Bianca decided to give it to White.

===Cheren===
{{main|Cheren (Adventures)}}

Although Cheren was chosen by Professor Juniper to have a Pokédex, Team Plasma's actions made him see the device as an excuse to trap Pokémon in Poké Balls, and that the strength he pursues could be achieved without it. Cheren then decided to be not a Pokédex holder any longer.

==Others==
Throughout the series, some characters had relevant association with the usage of Pokédexes, though they do not belong to the Pokédex holders group.
* Professor Birch was using Emerald's Pokédex before it was lost and later found by Wally.
* Before the Pokédex was upgraded in the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, [[Carr]] duplicated Red's into a "black Pokédex". It was seen being held by {{adv|Giovanni}} and by [[the Three Beasts]].
* [[Paka and Uji]] would have been Pokédex holders if the mixup with Professor Rowan and Professor Berlitz with Diamond and Pearl did not happen.

==Trivia==
* The Pokédex holders have their names based on the [[Version|main series]] games.
* Every Pokédex holder named after an English [[Version|third version]] is known by another name. Yellow is also called Amarillo del Bosque Verde, Crystal's nickname is Crys, Emerald is called Rald by {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}, and Platinum was previously known as Lady Berlitz.
** Although Rakutsu's name is derived from a paired version, which can be considered to be the third or fourth of its [[generation]], he still follows this pattern. He uses the name Rakutsu in mission and has the code name Black no. 2.

[[File:Emerald chapter.png|thumb|right|300px|The Pokédex holders and their main Pokémon as of the {{chap|Emerald}}]]
'''Pokédex holder''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン図鑑所有者''', ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia owner''), known as '''Pokédex owner''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, is the term used by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}} to describe a {{pkmn|Trainer}} that has been given a [[Pokédex]]. These Trainers are often very gifted in one particular area, dubbed each's "special skill" by Professor Oak to the ones who received a Pokédex from him. These Trainers all have [[starter Pokémon]] from their regional [[Pokémon Professor]]s, though most already owned or trained Pokémon prior to receiving them.

The Pokédex holders have become a very tight knit group with many of them bonding with their cohorts in their regional adventures and later with their seniors and juniors. In the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} the holders from [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] grouped to fight the [[Masked Man]].

Red managed to use the few sunlight coming from a window to order Bulbasaur's {{m|SolarBeam}} and defeat the foe. Professor Oak watched what happened and, amazed by his battling skills, gave him the Bulbasaur and a Pokédex. During the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen|fifth chapter}}, Red, along with Green and Blue, got upgraded Pokédexes. His old Pokédex was the only one not destroyed, and was given to Yellow.

Red won the [[Pokémon League]] and became a {{pkmn|Champion}}. He is able to precisely take quick decisions during a {{pkmn|battle}}, turning the movements of opponents against themselves. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Fighter''' (Japanese: '''戦う者''' ''Fighter'').

===Blue - the Trainer===
{{main|Blue (Adventures)}}

{{main|Gold (Adventures)}}

When Professor Oak told how the Pokédex can be used in battle, Gold asked for one. The Professor said that Pokédexes are meant for research purposes, and the ones he trusted the device were responsible young people who were willing to help others with their strengths, unlike Gold that only cares about his goal and would reduce it to a tool in battle. After much insistence, the Professor asked how Gold sees his Pokémon, to what the boy replied that they are his "partners". For the good answer, the Pokédex was given to him. During the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver|ninth chapter}}, Gold received an upgraded Pokédex.

Gold's ability as a Pokédex holder was the last to be revealed in the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. While he desperately wondered what was his specialty, the Egg he was holding hatched given his {{pkmn|breeding#Hatching eggs|will to protect it}}. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''{{tt|Hatcher|Breeder in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''孵す者''' ''Hatcher'').

===Silver - the Exchanger===
{{main|Silver (Adventures)}}

Silver's Pokédex was first seen during his battle against Gold and then used against {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Later in the story, Professor Oak explained that it was stolen from his 2nd Research Center in [[Cherrygrove City]], the same way that Silver stole the [[Silver's Feraligatr|Totodile]] from [[Professor Elm]]'s Lab in [[New Bark Town]]. He guessed that Silver was the thief after hearing from Green about the time she and he were under the [[Masked Man]]'s control. During the ''HeartGold & SoulSilver'' chapter, Silver received an upgraded Pokédex.

During the time he was kidnapped, Silver was prepared to develop his knowledge on Pokémon [[trade]]s, with many of the Pokémon in his team obtained or evolved through trades. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Exchanger''' (Japanese: '''換える者''' ''Exchanger'').

===Crystal - the Catcher===
{{main|Crystal (Adventures)}}

While Professor Oak was looking for a reliable Trainer to collect Pokémon data for him, he got information from {{adv|Bill}} that there was a catcher who would do it for something in return. When the Professor went to [[Earl Dervish]]'s [[Pokémon academy]] for the meeting, a bunch of {{p|Slugma}} attacked a little girl. To protect her, a girl named Crystal used her Pokémon and [[Poké Ball#Level Ball|special Poké Balls]] to catch them all. Amazed by her catching skills, he gave her a Pokédex and, in return, repaired the old academy. During the ninth chapter, Crystal received an upgraded Pokédex.

Crystal is the only holder that actually attempts to fill the Pokédex with data, and went through special training since she was very young, having [[caught Pokémon]] by hundreds. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''{{tt|Catcher|Capturer in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''捕える者''' ''Capturer'').

==Hoenn Pokédex holders==
[[File:PS325.png|200px|thumb|right|Sapphire, Emerald and Ruby]]
===Ruby - Charm===
{{main|Ruby (Adventures)}}

Ruby accidentally kept the Pokédex that [[Professor Birch]] had for his fieldwork to help him defeat the two {{p|Mightyena}} that were attacking him. When Ruby was going to retrieve the Professor's bag, his [[Running Shoes]] activated and he fell from a cliff, being saved and taken to a cave by Sapphire. Ruby left her with a letter, telling her to return her father's goods, but forgot the Pokédex in his pocket. In [[Oldale Town]], when he was attacked by a {{p|Dustox}}, the Pokédex resonated and once again helped Ruby to defeat the Pokémon. He decided to keep it so that he could escape in time from the new Pokémon he would meet.

Whether obtaining {{pkmn|Contest}} {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Hoenn Contest Ribbons|Ribbons}} or fighting against enemies, Ruby always prioritizes '''charm''' (Japanese: '''魅せる''') in his actions, this being his special skill.

===Sapphire - Quest===
{{main|Sapphire (Adventures)}}

Sapphire Birch is Professor Birch's daughter. While she was doing fieldwork, Sapphire saw Ruby falling down from a cliff and got him by swinging on hanging vines. She took him to her [[secret base]], where they started a scuffle over their different views on Pokémon. In the middle of their battle, a {{p|Seviper}} appeared and attacked them. In order to defeat it, she used a Pokédex to get data about the Pokémon. She explained to Ruby that she was keeping it to help her father in his researches. When her quest on challenging all [[Gym]]s in [[Hoenn]] started, Sapphire took the Pokédex with her.

Sapphire accomplished the feat of obtaining all 8 {{DL|Badge|Hoenn League|Gym Badges}} in 80 days. Her special skill consists of always mastering whatever she '''quests for''' (Japanese: '''究める''').

===Emerald - Calm===
{{main|Emerald (Adventures)}}

Emerald was recommended by the [[Trick Master]] to live in Earl Dervish's Pokémon academy, to overcome the bullying he suffered, which made him reluctant to interact with other children and with Pokémon. When Emerald arrived at the academy, he was impressed by Crystal's dedication for others, working hard to fulfill the Pokédex for Professor Oak to get repairs in the building and new clothes for the homeless children in return. He then decided to ask for a Pokédex so that he could also help others. In the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], Emerald called the Professor with a message saying that he wanted a Pokédex so that he could live together with Pokémon. Yet, Professor Oak registered Emerald as the owner of the Pokédex but didn't give it to him, saying that he lied about wanting to be with Pokémon, since Earl declared that he avoids any contact with them. Only when Emerald found his own path in relating with Pokémon, the Professor accepted to give him the Pokédex. He then had to head to Hoenn, where his Pokédex was with Professor Birch.

One of the {{DL|Emerald (Adventures)|gadgets}} used by Emerald shoots dirt from a Pokémon's birthplace around it, acting similar to a [[Capture Styler]]. This method defines Emerald's special skill to '''calm''' (Japanese: '''鎮める''') rampant Pokémon down.

==Sinnoh Pokédex holders==
[[File:Diamond Pearl Platinum Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|Pearl, Platinum and Diamond]]
As a member of nobility, {{adv|Platinum|Lady Berlitz}} must meet the tradition of making an artifact from materials found on the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]], as the other heirs of her family. For the journey, [[Professor Rowan]] gave her a suitcase with three Pokédexes, [[Pokétch]]es and the three Sinnoh starters to be used by the Lady and the two bodyguards hired by her father, that she was supposed to meet in front of [[Jubilife Condominiums]].

'''{{adv|Diamond}}''' and '''{{adv|Pearl}}''' are childhood friends from [[Twinleaf Town]] that aim to become masters of comedy. They took part in a contest held by [[Jubilife TV]] that would reward the best stand-up comedians, but failed in their performance. However, they received a special prize for their peculiar humor, tickets for a travel. Before opening the envelope with the tickets, they bumped against Professor Rowan and his assistant (Lady Berlitz's father) in the middle of a crowd and ended up having their envelope exchanged with the one containing instructions for the Lady's bodyguards on their travel to Mt. Coronet. Arriving at the meeting point, they assumed she was a tour guide for their trip, while she thought they were her bodyguards, giving each a Pokémon, a Pokétch and a Pokédex. The trio traveled around [[Sinnoh]] until the misunderstanding was clarified, when she decided to reveal her first name, '''{{adv|Platinum}}'''.

Their special skills match the [[lake guardians]] they have bonded with. Diamond is guided by the {{p|Mesprit|emotion}} he '''feels''' (Japanese: '''感じる'''), Pearl is full of {{p|Azelf|willpower}} on whatever he '''intends''' (Japanese: '''志す''') to do, and Platinum '''knows''' (Japanese: '''知る''') about various subjects due to the outstanding {{p|Uxie|knowledge}} she is imbued with.

==Unova Pokédex holders==
[[File:Black White Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|White and Black]]
===Black - Dream===
{{main|Black (Adventures)}}

[[Professor Juniper]] sent a package with three Pokédexes and three Pokémon to Black, {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}}. The box was supposed to be delivered at Black's house, but he was so eager to receive it that waited all night outside the Juniper Pokémon Lab. When the deliveryman gave the package to him, he opened it to choose his starter before his friends. But as it rained the day before, Black was drenched and sneezed on the box, releasing the three Pokémon and letting two of the Pokédexes fall on a pond. He went after [[Buoh|one of the Pokémon]] that escaped and started his adventure, leaving Cheren and Bianca behind with two broken Pokédexes.

Since his childhood, Black is devoted to his objective of winning the [[Unova League]] to become the Champion. His dedication to the '''dream''' (Japanese: '''夢みる''') he follows is his special skill.

===White===
{{main|White (Adventures)}}

During Black's journey, he ended up working for White, the president of the [[BW Agency]]. She managed Pokémon actors for movies but had never trained a single Pokémon before. Later on, White learned the qualifications of a Pokémon Trainer from the very beginning, such as catching, battling and evolving. When she already had a full team of six Pokémon, Bianca gave White her Pokédex and she became a Pokédex holder.

===Rakutsu===
{{main|Rakutsu}}
Rakutsu is an [[International Police]] agent that was infiltrated in [[Aspertia City]]'s [[Trainer's School]], where he studied with [[Hugh]] and {{tc|Poké Maniac|Petashi}}. After they got into an argument, the teacher, Cheren, sent them outside the class. In the hallway, they got into another argument, so Cheren decided to have a practical battle exercise, making the entire class battle each other. At the end, Cheren revealed the exercise was a test to find the best Trainers of his class. Rakutsu ended up as one of the winners, and thus received a Pokédex from Bianca.

===Faitsu===
{{main|Faitsu}}
Faitsu moved with her [[Mom|mother]] to Aspertia City, so she could be away from the events that occurred when she was a member of [[Team Plasma]]. On her first day at the Trainer's School, she had to battle her classmates in a practical battle class. Although Faitsu didn't want to draw attention to her, she ended up winning and was rewarded a Pokédex from Bianca. At first she did not want to take it, but the other winner, Rakutsu, convinced her to take it.

==Former Pokédex holders==
===Wally===
{{main|Wally (Adventures)}}

Wally found Professor Birch's bag adrift in the sea during the flood caused by {{p|Kyogre}}'s rampage. Inside the bag was a Pokédex and a [[Emerald's Sceptile|Treecko]]. Wally temporarily used the Pokédex and the Pokémon when he was helping [[Norman]] to awaken {{p|Rayquaza}} in the [[Sky Pillar]]. After the cataclysmic battle between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}} ceased, Wally sent the Pokédex back to Professor Birch, who gave it to its registered owner, Emerald.

In the magazine releases of Pokémon Adventures, there was a scene in which Wally was registered as owner of the Pokédex he found. This scene did not appear in the volume releases, turning him into a mere user of Emerald's Pokédex.

===Bianca===
{{main|Bianca (Adventures)}}

Bianca, along with Cheren and Black, was chosen by Professor Juniper to fill the Pokédex with data. Even though Black made her Pokédex unusable, Bianca left on her journey, sometimes meeting with Cheren, Black and/or White. When her Pokédex was fixed, Bianca decided to give it to White.

===Cheren===
{{main|Cheren (Adventures)}}

Although Cheren was chosen by Professor Juniper to have a Pokédex, Team Plasma's actions made him see the device as an excuse to trap Pokémon in Poké Balls, and that the strength he pursues could be achieved without it. Cheren then decided to be not a Pokédex holder any longer.

==Others==
Throughout the series, some characters had relevant association with the usage of Pokédexes, though they do not belong to the Pokédex holders group.
* Professor Birch was using Emerald's Pokédex before it was lost and later found by Wally.
* Before the Pokédex was upgraded in the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, [[Carr]] duplicated Red's into a "black Pokédex". It was seen being held by {{adv|Giovanni}} and by [[the Three Beasts]].
* [[Paka and Uji]] would have been Pokédex holders if the mixup with Professor Rowan and Professor Berlitz with Diamond and Pearl did not happen.

==Trivia==
* The Pokédex holders have their names based on the [[Version|main series]] games.
* Every Pokédex holder named after an English [[Version|third version]] is known by another name. Yellow is also called Amarillo del Bosque Verde, Crystal's nickname is Crys, Emerald is called Rald by {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}, and Platinum was previously known as Lady Berlitz.
** Although Rakutsu's name is derived from a paired version, which can be considered to be the third or fourth of its [[generation]], he still follows this pattern. He uses the name Rakutsu in mission and has the code name Black no. 2.

A '''volume''' (Japanese: '''単行本''' ''tankōbon'') is the collection of several {{adv|round}}s in a book. The volume divides the [[chapter]]s into sections, which events from one volume may continue into another. {{PAV|1}} - {{PAV|7}} were given titles by [[VIZ Media]], and {{PAV|16}} - {{PAV|22}} were given titles by [[Chuang Yi]].

The following is a list of volumes of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}. There are currently 45 volumes in total, with 32 volumes currently released in North America by [[VIZ Media]] and 41 volumes released in Singapore by [[Chuang Yi]].

'''Pearl''' (Japanese: '''パール''' ''Pearl'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]] and one of the male main characters for the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} and {{chap|Platinum}} story arcs.

For his skills, he is given the title of '''"{{p|Azelf|Determiner}}"''' (志す者 ''Determiner'').

==Personality==
[[File:Diamond Pearl and Pokémon.png|left|170px|thumb|Pearl, Diamond and their first Pokémon]]Pearl is impatient and is often accidentally getting himself and his friend, {{adv|Diamond}} into trouble. He is the straight man (''{{wp|Manzai|tsukkomi}}'') of the {{wp|Double act|comedy duo}}, while Diamond is the funny man. His appearance is based on that of {{ga|Barry}} from the video game series.

Compared to Diamond, Pearl is hasty and easily angered and, according to Diamond, always goes out of his way to complete things he has started, which reflects the virtue that he is aligned with: willpower, which also makes him associated with {{p|Azelf}}. Pearl is also very bossy and usually tells Diamond and {{adv|Platinum}} what to do.

[[Tower Tycoon Palmer|His father]] is very skilled in battling, and Pearl has learned a lot from him during his childhood, which has helped him in creating training sessions for Platinum to participate in for practice for her Gym challenges. One of his most amazing abilities is his skill of being able to tell what move a Pokémon is preparing to use. Like his two traveling companions, Pearl was not very strong when he first set out on his journey across Sinnoh but now seems to be the strongest of them.

Because the two boys were neighbors during their childhood, Pearl and Diamond are practically as close as brothers. Even though Pearl often yells and smacks Diamond, Pearl truly does care for Diamond. Conversely, Pearl likes Platinum's arrogant attitude towards Diamond and himself. Despite the fact that he often yells and criticizes her, Pearl always helps Platinum by helping prepare her for her goals and dreams, and is often amazed by her knowledge and perseverance. The two quickly got used to the other's personality and have become close friends.

==History==
==={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}===
Pearl was first introduced at the New Generation Funny Grand Prix in [[Jubilife City]], where he, along with Diamond, won the Judges' Special Merit Prize. Upon leaving the Grand Prix, Diamond and Pearl's prize was mixed up with [[Professor Rowan]]'s envelope, causing the boys to, unknowingly, accept the mission to guard {{adv|Platinum|Platinum Berlitz}} on her journey to the top of [[Mt. Coronet]], although they believed they were on a reality show and Platinum was the host.

[[File:Pearl Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Pearl in the ''Diamond & Pearl'' chapter]]In [[Oreburgh City]], Platinum decided to challenge Gyms, and Diamond and Pearl helped her train, which helped build trust within the young trio. After many different trials and crises together, they finally reached Mt. Coronet, but they soon discovered that the cavern they have entered would not lead to the summit, and therefore had to continued their journey on to the eastern side of Sinnoh.

In [[Hearthome City]], Platinum decided to challenge a Super Contest. In order for the girl to win, Pearl planned a very strict dance program that Platinum would have to perform, which she did, helping her snag the victory.

Afterward, the trio was attacked by Platinum's true bodyguards, [[Paka and Uji]], who believed that Diamond and Pearl where kidnappers who had taken Platinum for ransom. Thankfully, they were saved by [[Fantina]], who took them to the [[Lost Tower]]. Once Fantina deemed it save for them to leave, the trio went to the [[Solaceon Ruins]], where they saved a group of Unown before heading back out on their journey.

In [[Veilstone City]], Diamond and Pearl met up with Paka and Uji for real and had their first true battle with [[Team Galactic]]. During this battle, Diamond's [[Tru]] and [[Chimler]] both evolved and Platinum's true identity was revealed to the two boys by Paka and Uji. However, before her real bodyguards had a chance to meet and explain things to the girl, they were banished into [[Distortion World|another dimension]] by Saturn. Once this happened, Diamond confessed to Pearl that he knew Platinum wasn't a reality TV host from the beginning, but he had kept it to himself because the misunderstanding was the thing that created and held together their friendship. The two then took an oath that they would protect her and keep their real identities a secret.

Later, following a separation from Diamond and Platinum at Lake Valor, an adventure in the [[Great Marsh]] and Platinum's Gym challenge in [[Pastoria City]], they met up with [[Cynthia]] at the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}, and she helped them clear the group of {{p|Psyduck}} that were blocking {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}. They encountered Cyrus again in [[Celestic Town]] when the man broke into the ruins that held Sinnoh's legend of the three lakes. After the showdown with the man, in which Diamond and Pearl had a huge argument that nearly cost them the victory, the trio ended up in Hearthome once again and Platinum challenged Fantina, who turned out to be the Gym Leader of the [[Hearthome Gym]].

After gaining a victory, the trio learned of Mr. Berlitz's and Professor Rowan's disappearance. In order to find them, the trio went to [[Canalave City]], where they mistook [[Byron]] for the kidnapper. After realizing the whole thing was a misunderstanding, Platinum finally learned of Dia and Pearl's true identity and was completely horrified by the news. However, after a horrible night full of nightmares, she decided to keep the boys as her companions and they resumed their journey with a new goal in mind: to stop Team Galactic's evil plans.

The trio then split up to defend the three lakes of [[Sinnoh]], [[Lake Valor]], [[Lake Acuity]], and [[Lake Verity]]. Pearl was assigned to go to [[Lake Valor]]. On the way there, Pearl accidentally fell from a cliff in an attempt to save a nest of {{p|Wingull}} and ended up in front of the [[Fuego Ironworks]], where he was reunited with the {{p| Luxray}} that he had befriended near the beginning of his journey and, after it said farewell to its herd, it joined Pearl's team.

Upon leaving the Fuego Ironworks, Pearl met up with [[Rad Rickshaw]] and traveled with the man to Lake Valor. Once they arrived, the two went across the lake to the small island in the center, where Pearl fought against Team Galactic's [[Saturn]] and witnessed the [[Galactic Bomb]]'s explosion. The two then fought over the Pokémon of willpower, {{p|Azelf}}, but Pearl lost the fight and collapsed, leaving Saturn with Azelf.

[[‎File:Pearl catches Buizel.png|left|240px|thumb|Pearl finally catches a Buizel.]]
Pearl later awoke in the Pastoria Gym. While there, the Gym leader of Pastoria, [[Crasher Wake]] suggested the boy catch a {{p|Floatzel}} or a {{p|Buizel}} as they seemed to fit Pearl's personality. After several failed attempts and some encouragement from his Pokémon and his new teacher Wake, Pearl finally caught a Buizel along with a {{p|Tauros}} and a {{p|Diglett}}. After some training with Wake and hearing that Diamond was on a Galactic Airship, Pearl left for Veilstone City in order to infiltrate the Team Galactic Headquarters.

Upon arriving in Veilstone, Pearl noticed that the city was guarded by Team Galactic. Thankfully, he was able to get through with the help of a group of {{p|Unown}} that he, along with Diamond and Platinum, had met in [[Solaceon Town]]. Once he managed to get inside of the Headquarters, he was reunited with his former traveling companions and sacrificed his Pokédex in order to save the [[Lake guardians]].

The newly reunited trio then regrouped with Cynthia and headed to the [[Spear Pillar]], where Diamond and Pearl split up with Platinum and Cynthia and time and space begins to distort. The two boys began to fight {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} but were quickly stopped by the dragons' abilities to manipulate the fabric of reality. After Cyrus ambushed them, a giant hole appears in the sky and started sucking everyone on the Spear Pillar into it. Pearl and Platinum tried to prevent the unconscious Gym Leaders from being taken while Diamond attempted to jump into the hole and close it from inside.

Pearl sits on the sidelines for the rest of the battle and witnesses Diamond and his new partner, {{p|Regigigas}} fight off Dialga and Palkia. Once Diamond makes a speech that causes the control on Dialga and Palkia to become unbalanced, he and Diamond, under Platinum's command, attack the two dragons and successfully break the Red Chain controlling them. Dialga and Palkia, free from Cyrus' control, defeat the Galactic Boss, knocking him unconscious.

They celebrate their victory and decide to go home while taking their friends and Cyrus to the hospital. As they leave, Diamond notices someone watching them and the Canalave Gym Leader, Byron, emerges from the ground and takes the machine he was holding. However, this causes {{p|Giratina|mysterious black tentacles}} to emerge from the hole in the sky and grab Cyrus, Dialga, and Palkia, who are all dragged into it. The old man introduces himself as [[Charon]] and makes an attempt to escape, but Diamond’s Kit steals a small notebook from him as he flees.

==={{chap|Platinum}}===
[[File:Pearl Sleeves.png|thumb|200px|right|Pearl unfolding his sleeves]]
It is later revealed that the notebook that Kit had stolen from Charon was a book with information on legendary Pokémon. Joined by the Sinnoh Pokémon Association Chairman and Dr. Footstep, Pearl and Diamond use the notebook that was deciphered by the Sinnoh [[Elite Four]] and search for the legendary and rare Pokémon of Sinnoh.

Their first stop is to return to the Old Chateau where they find the Pokémon that had attacked them in their last visit, {{p|Rotom}}. The two are attacked by Rotom and its many {{DL|Form differences|Rotom|different forms}}. Eventually, Diamond manages to bond with Rotom and befriends it; Rotom then joins their group.

Soon after, Pearl and Diamond hear a large noise and runs to the location where it came from. Upon arriving, they find a giant dragon Pokémon called {{p|Giratina}} going on a rampage and destroying Eterna City. Immediately, Diamond's Regigigas, Gi, erupts from its Poké Ball to battle Giratina. Soon after, Charon appears and reveals that intends to kill Pearl and Diamond in his plan to capture the legendary and rare Pokémon of Sinnoh.

Diamond and Gi face off Charon's {{p|Heatran}} while Pearl and Chatler goes off to battle Giratina alone. Due to Chatler and Pearl staying in the air, they are able to escape from Giratina's attacks due to it not being a good fighter while flying. When Charon forces Giratina to use {{m|Shadow Force}}, Diamond pushes Pearl out of the way of the attack, but gets hit by it in the process and is knocked unconscious. Much to Pearl's distress, he tries to wake Diamond up, but to no avail. Seeing that its Trainer has died, Gi begins to turn around and leaves.

In his rage, Pearl decides to attack Charon despite the chance that they might lose.
Before they can fight, Gi soon returns with Rotom's appliances so that Rotom can attack Charon in its rage. Together, Gi and Rotom force Charon and Giratina to retreat back into the Distortion World. Soon after, the Sinnoh Chairman and Dr. Footstep return to the scene after hearing all of the commotion. As soon as they return, Diamond's body suddenly begins to distort and disappears.

Later, Pearl, Dr. Footstep and the Sinnoh Chairman make their way to the Distortion World. While traveling, Pearl contacts Platinum and tries to inform her about what happened to Diamond.

After entering, Pearl is shocked to find his father, {{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}}, having fallen out of the sky. They are attacked by {{p|Darkrai}}, due to Palmer's {{p|Cresselia}} being hostile towards it. Palmer manages to defeat Darkrai alone, which causes Pearl to wonder why he is not a Gym Leader. Palmer reveals to him that he has a job as the owner of the Battle Frontier and is the Tower Tycoon of the Battle Tower.

When Palmer asks where Diamond is, Pearl sadly informs him that he had died in their previous battle. Suddenly, Diamond appears riding on Dialga's back, revealing that he is still alive. Much to Pearl's surprise, Cyrus is also with Diamond, and is riding on Palkia. They hear Platinum's voice and rush to her location, and find Paka and Uji there with her. They have a tearful reunion and return their sunglasses back to their original owners. Soon after, the Advanced level Grunt returns the stolen Pokédexes back to their proper owners.

As the battle between the legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. When Charon decides to escape, Pearl, Diamond, and Platinum each take a different legendary Pokémon to fly and chase after him before he can trap everyone inside the Distortion World. They fly and eventually make it outside to Sunyshore City, where Charon is finished off by a surprise attack from Cynthia.

Charon tries to escape like he did at the Spear Pillar, only to be cornered by Pearl, Diamond, and Platinum. Although defeated, Charon refuses to give up, and uses his machine to try and make Pearl, Diamond, and Platinum's Pokémon attack each other. The machine is quickly destroyed by a toy of Proteam Omega, which is revealed to be possessed by Rotom.

With Charon defeated, everyone who was left behind in the Distortion World emerges from it safe and unharmed. Cyrus disbands Team Galactic, but thanks the three before leaving with Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter. Giratina tries to attack one last time, but is stopped by Volkner and Flint and is driven back into the Distortion World by Dialga and Palkia, this time without any desire for revenge.

Charon is arrested by Looker, who gives Diamond a [[Pokémon Egg]] given to him from the [[Fiore]] Region before leaving to his next mission in Unova. Having emerged from everything victorious, the three give each other a fist bump. Later, Platinum watches as the sole audience member as Pearl and Diamond gives her a comedy routine, which she hadn't seen in a while.

Sometime later, at the Solaceon Day-Care Center, Diamond plays with {{p|Phione}}, a Pokémon that hatched from an Egg. Pearl berates him for playing with it when they are supposed to be training it, which Diamond responds by having the Pokémon use {{m|Heart Swap}}. The owners of the Day-Care recall of a {{adv|Gold|Trainer}} that hatched a [[Togebo|Pokémon]] with a similar personality to his in the Johto region.

All of Pearl's Pokémon nicknames are a combination of two syllables of their species name and "{{tt|Ler|VIZ}}" or "{{tt|Hiko|Chuang Yi}}," a common suffix for Japanese boys' names.

'''Diamond''' (Japanese: '''ダイヤモンド''' ''Diamond'', abbreviated to '''ダイヤ''' ''Dia'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]] and one of the male main characters for the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} and {{chap|Platinum}} story arcs.

For his skills, he is given the title of '''"{{p|Mesprit|Empathizer}}"''' (感じる者 ''Empathizer'').

==Personality==
[[‎File:Diamond one man skit.png|left|thumb|Diamond's one man skit]]
Diamond is the stooge (''[[wp:Manzai|boke]]'') of the [[wp:Double act|comedy duo]], with his childhood friend {{adv|Pearl}} playing the straight man. Despite appearing seemingly dopey and slow-witted when performing his role, he is actually very perceptive. His appearance is based on the male [[player character]] of Diamond and Pearl, {{ga|Lucas}}. His name is often shortened to Dia, but is also called by his full name, Diamond, by Pearl when the latter is unusually serious.

Diamond is often apathetic and rarely not seen eating - even in dire situations, as was the case when he had a feast with his Pokémon while aboard a Team Galactic airship that was headed straight to their HQ. He shares these traits with his Pokémon, especially so with his Munchlax. While not fat, he is much less active and energetic when compared to {{adv|Pearl}} or {{adv|Platinum}}, as seen when Platinum mused that every morning since the trio began traveling together, Diamond would perpetually end up being the last to get up. However, he is always serious when it comes to food and is an expert at cooking [[Poffin]]s. He also displays an ability to analyze the situation at hand - when something strikes him as illogical, he will attempt to make sense out of it. Diamond has a somewhat natural instinct to judge how a Pokémon feels and can be quite observant when something arouses his interest. He is driven by emotion, thus associated with {{p|Mesprit}}.

Diamond has a large amount of respect for Pearl and despite the latter's tendency to berate him aggressively, the two are as close as brothers. Diamond also has a not-so-small [[CommonerShipping|crush]] on {{adv|Platinum}}, which he developed when they first met.

Diamond has changed a lot from the beginning of his journey with Pearl and Platinum. He was convinced by Pearl after the incident at [[Veilstone City]] to set aside their dream of becoming great comedians to protect {{adv|Platinum}} until she finishes her journey. On [[Iron Island]], he also received training from [[Riley]] in order to further his battling skills, which were lacking when compared to {{adv|Pearl}}'s and {{adv|Platinum}}'s.

==History==
===Childhood===
[[File:Young Diamond Pearl Adventures.png|thumb|right|Younger Diamond and Pearl]]
Diamond grew up in [[Twinleaf Town]] with his mother where he enjoyed his favorite anime, [[Proteam Omega]]. His best friend was his neighbor {{adv|Pearl}}, who he partnered up with to make a Comedy Pair after seeing two famous comedians at a show.

==={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}===
[[File:Diamond Adventures.png|thumb|left|Diamond in the ''Diamond & Pearl'' chapter]]
Diamond first appeared at the New Generation Funny Grand Prix in [[Jubilife City]], where he, along with Pearl, was awarded the Judges' Special Merit Prize. Upon leaving the Grand Prix with their prize, Diamond and Pearl bumped into [[Professor Rowan]] and his assistant, Mr. Berlitz, causing them to accidentally switch envelopes and, unknowingly, receive the mission to guard {{adv|Platinum|Platinum Berlitz}} on her journey to the top of [[Mt. Coronet]], although they believed they were on a reality show and Platinum was the host.

In [[Oreburgh City]], Platinum decided to challenge Gyms, and Diamond and Pearl helped her train, which helped build trust within the young trio. At the [[Valley Windworks]], they met up with [[Mars]] for the first time and defeated her with Diamond's emotion and kindness. After many different trials and crises together, they finally reached Mt. Coronet, but they soon discovered that the cavern they entered would not lead to the summit, and therefore had to continue their journey on to the eastern side of Sinnoh.

In [[Hearthome City]], Platinum decided to challenge a Super Contest. While Pearl helped Platinum practice, Diamond began cooking [[Poffin]]s. When Platinum was about to quit the Contest due to her being attacked by the other participants, Diamond cheered her up with a piece of pie, which allowed her to continue and win.
[[File:Diamond Cooking.png|thumb|right|Diamond cooking]]
Afterward, the trio was attacked by Platinum's true bodyguards, [[Paka and Uji]], who believed that Diamond and Pearl where kidnappers who had taken Platinum for ransom. Thankfully, they were saved by [[Fantina]], who took them to the [[Lost Tower]]. Once Fantina deemed it save for them to leave, the trio went to the [[Solaceon Ruins]], where they saved some Unown before heading back out on their journey.

In [[Veilstone City]], Diamond and Pearl met up with Paka and Uji for real and had their first true battle with [[Team Galactic]]. During this battle, Diamond's [[Tru]] and [[Chimler]] both evolved and Platinum's true identity was revealed to the two boys by Paka and Uji. However, before her real bodyguards had a chance to meet and explain things to the girl, they were banished into [[Distortion World|another dimension]] by Saturn. Once this happened, Diamond confessed to Pearl that he knew Platinum wasn't a reality TV host from the beginning, but he had kept it to himself because the misunderstanding was the thing that created and held together their friendship. The two then took an oath that they would protect her and keep their real identities a secret.

Later, following a separation from Pearl at Lake Valor, an adventure in the [[Great Marsh]] and Platinum's Gym challenge in [[Pastoria City]], they met up with [[Cynthia]] at the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}}, and she helped them clear the group of {{p|Psyduck}} that were blocking {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}. They encountered Cyrus again in [[Celestic Town]] when the man broke into the ruins that held Sinnoh's legend of the three lakes. After the showdown with the man, in which Diamond and Pearl had a huge argument that had nearly cost them the victory, the trio ended up in Hearthome once again and Platinum challenged Fantina, who turned out to be the Gym Leader of the [[Hearthome Gym]].

After gaining a victory, the trio learned of Mr. Berlitz and that Professor Rowan had disappeared. In order to find them, the trio went to [[Canalave City]], where they mistook [[Byron]] as Mr. Berlitz and Professor Rowan's kidnapper. During the battle between the young trio and Byron, Diamond befriended Byron's {{p|Shieldon}}. After realizing the whole thing was a misunderstanding, Platinum finally learned of Diamond and Pearl's true identity, and was completely horrified by the shocking news. However, after a horrible night full of nightmares, she decided to keep the boys as her companions and they resumed their journey with the new goal to stop Team Galactic's evil plans.

The trio was then split up to defend the three lakes of [[Sinnoh]] and Diamond was assigned to go to [[Lake Verity]]. However, Byron didn't believe that Diamond was a strong enough battler and made him go through training with [[Riley]] on [[Iron Island]]. During this, he learned to overcome his weakness in speed.

Soon, Diamond was back in Jubilife City, where he saved the President of the Pokétch Company from wild {{p|Lickitung}}, which evolved into a {{p|Lickilicky}} during the battle and joined Diamond's team. Afterwards, he arrived in [[Sandgem Town]] accidentally found himself in the Berlitz's Mansion and was mistaken as a thief by Platinum's butler, Sebastian, but this was quickly taken care of and explained. Before resuming his quest towards Lake Verity, he fought off a swarm of {{p|Yanmega}} that was sent by Team Galactic to attack Professor Rowan's Science Lab.

Diamond then made one last detour and returned home to find some winter clothes that his mom bought him, finding a note left by his mom telling him that she heading to Lake Verity to get some [[Berry|Berries]]. Upon reading that, Diamond realized that his mother was in danger and rushes out of his house to the nearby lake, where he finds his mother being held hostage by Mars.

[[File:Diamond Team Galactic.png|thumb|right|Diamond dressed as a Galactic Grunt]]

Diamond and his Mom fought off Mars and Diamond went airborne on {{p|Drifblim}}. However, after {{p|Mesprit}} was awakened, he managed to sneak onto the Team Galactic Air Shuttle and found himself back in Veilstone City. There, he infiltrated the headquarters of Team Galactic by disguising himself as a Galactic Grunt and fought the mysterious Cloaked Grunt. He later was forced to sacrifice his Pokédex in order to free Mesprit but was reunited with Pearl and Platinum soon after.

The newly reunited trio then regrouped with Cynthia and headed to the [[Spear Pillar]], where Diamond and Pearl split up with Platinum and Cynthia and time and space begins to distort. The two boys begin to fight {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} but are quickly stopped by the two dragons' abilities to manipulate the fabric of reality. After Cyrus ambushes them, a giant hole appears in the sky that starts sucking everyone on the Spear Pillar into it. Diamond attempts to dive into the hole and close it from the inside to save everyone; before he can do it, he is saved by a {{p|Regigigas}}.

Regigigas and Diamond decide to team up to battle Dialga and Palkia, successfully preventing them from moving and causing any more destruction. Cyrus quickly knocks Diamond off Regigigas and questions how a boy who knows nothing of Time and Space could understand why he's trying to create a new world. Diamond then shows that he does, in fact, understand what Cyrus meant and verbally states what he believes Time and Space is. Diamond's words cause an imbalance in the control that Cyrus has over Dialga and Palkia and he hastily attempts to try to regain control, hitting Diamond with the [[Red Chain]] in the process. Platinum realizes that with only one Red Chain, controlling Dialga and Palkia will be almost impossible and at certain times, the power controlling one dragon will shift into another’s favor, and she commands Diamond and Pearl attack the two dragons. The attack manages to successfully break the Red Chain and the two Dragon-type Pokémon from Cyrus's control. Dialga and Palkia then use their powers to distort Cyrus in a sphere of light and he falls to the ground unconscious.

They all celebrate their victory and decide to go home while taking their friends and Cyrus to the hospital. As they leave, Diamond notices someone watching them and the Canalave Gym Leader, Byron, emerges from the ground and takes the machine he was holding. However, this causes the hole in the sky that was created by Dialga and Palkia's fighting to have {{p|Giratina|mysterious black tentacles}} to shoot out and grab Cyrus, Dialga, and Palkia, who are all dragged into it. The old man introduces himself as [[Charon]] and makes an attempt to escape, but Diamond’s Kit grabs a small notebook while he runs away.

==={{chap|Platinum}}===
[[‎File:Diamond New Jacket.png|left|thumb|Diamond putting on his jacket]]
It is later revealed that the notebook that Kit had stolen from Charon was a book with information on legendary Pokémon. Joined by the Sinnoh Pokémon Association Chairman and Dr. Footstep, Diamond and Pearl use the notebook that was deciphered by the Sinnoh [[Elite Four]] and search for the Legendary and Rare Pokémon of Sinnoh.

Their first stop is to return to the Old Chateau where they find the Pokémon that had attacked them in their last visit, {{p|Rotom}}. The two are attacked by Rotom and its many {{DL|Form differences|Rotom|different forms}}. Eventually, Diamond manages to bond with Rotom and befriends it; Rotom then joins their group.

Soon after, Diamond and Pearl hear a large noise and runs to the location where it came from. Upon arriving, they find a giant dragon Pokémon called {{p|Giratina}} going on a rampage and destroying Eterna City. Immediately, Gi erupts from its Poké Ball to battle Giratina. Soon after, Charon appears and reveals that intends to kill Diamond and Pearl in his plan to capture the legendary and rare Pokémon of Sinnoh.

Diamond and Gi face off Charon's {{p|Heatran}} while Pearl goes off to battle Giratina alone. With Gi's powerful {{m|Crush Grip}}, they manage to nearly defeat Heatran. When Charon forces Giratina to use {{m|Shadow Force}}, Diamond pushes Pearl out of the way of the attack, but gets hit by it in the process and is knocked unconscious. Much to Pearl's distress, he tries to wake Diamond up, but to no avail.

Seeing that its Trainer has died, Gi appears to leave, but soon returns with Rotom's appliances so that it can attack Charon in its rage. Together, Gi and Rotom force Charon and Giratina to retreat back into the Distortion World. Soon after, the Sinnoh Chairman and Dr. Footstep return to the scene after hearing all of the commotion. As soon as they return, Diamond's body suddenly begins to distort and disappears.

Later, Diamond awakens in another world, confused at his current surroundings. He quickly figures out that he is in the [[Distortion World]], having touched [[PS360|it]] [[PS415|three]] [[PS433|times]] prior. There, he encounters Cyrus, and asks him if he knows how to beat Giratina.

Cyrus takes him to an area where Giratina had trapped Dialga and Palkia in a mineral after it dragged them into the Distortion World. Together, they free Dialga and Palkia from their prison. They ride the two dragons back to where Pearl and Platinum's groups were and reunites with Paka and Uji. After Diamond and Pearl return Paka and Uji's sunglasses, the Advanced level Grunt returns the stolen Pokédexes back to their proper owners.

As the battle between the legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. When Charon decides to escape, Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum each take a different legendary Pokémon to fly and chase after him before he can trap everyone inside the Distortion World. They fly and eventually make it outside to Sunyshore City, where Charon is finished off by a surprise attack from Cynthia.

Charon tries to escape like he did at the Spear Pillar, only to be cornered by Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Although defeated, Charon refuses to give up, and uses his machine to try and make Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum's Pokémon attack each other. The machine is quickly destroyed by a toy of Proteam Omega, which is revealed to be possessed by Rotom.

With Charon defeated, everyone who was left behind in the Distortion World emerges from it safe and unharmed. Cyrus disbands Team Galactic, but thanks the three before leaving with Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter. Giratina tries to attack one last time, but is stopped by Volkner and Flint and is driven back into the Distortion World by Dialga and Palkia, this time without any desire for revenge.

Charon is arrested by Looker, who gives Diamond a [[Pokémon Egg]] given to him from the [[Fiore]] Region before leaving to his next mission in Unova. Having emerged from everything victorious, the three give each other a fist bump. Later, Platinum watches as the sole audience member as Diamond and Pearl gives her a comedy routine, which she hadn't seen in a while.

Sometime later, at the Solaceon Day-Care Center, Diamond plays with {{p|Phione}}, a Pokémon that hatched from an Egg. Pearl berates him for playing with it when they are supposed to be training it, which Diamond responds by having the Pokémon use {{m|Heart Swap}}. The owners of the Day-Care recall of a {{adv|Gold|Trainer}} that hatched a [[Togebo|Pokémon]] with a similar personality to his in the Johto region.

It ran away to the [[Galactic Eterna Building]] where it used the appliances there to terrorize the two boys until Diamond bonded with it, revealing that it only wanted to play.

|desc={{p|Unown|Grumpy and Flaky}} were a P-shaped and a D-shaped Unown, respectively, who met Diamond, Pearl and Platinum in [[Solaceon Town]]. They needed the trio's help so they could free their friends who had been trapped in the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. Platinum named them based on their natures which she thought were similar to those of her travelling companions. Later the two, together with other Unown living in the ruins, helped Pearl and Platinum enter Veilstone City and the Galactic Veilstone Building by distracting the Galactic Grunts guarding the entrances.
The two Pokémon are also known as '''Mr. Hasty''' and '''Mr. Relaxed''' in the VIZ Media translation.

Their only known move is {{m|Hidden Power}}.}}

==Trivia==
* In the [[Chuang Yi]] translation, Diamond's Munchlax has the same nickname as {{DL|Red (Adventures)|Snor|Red's Snorlax}}. [[Viz Media]], however, chose to nickname the latter "Snor."
* The only Pokémon that Diamond has ever been seen to catch on-screen is Kit; Tru, Don, Lax, and Moo were given to him, and Gi chose Diamond as its Trainer.
* Diamond's Moo is the first Pokémon introduced in any media that has a [[Hidden Ability]], though it is not the first Pokémon [[BW008|confirmed to have one]].

'''Dream Eater''' (Japanese: '''ゆめくい''' ''Dream Eat'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Psychic}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM42]] in Generation I and II. It lost its status in Generation III before regaining its status as a TM, albeit as [[TM85]], in Generation IV onwards.

==Effect==

===Generation I-III===
Dream Eater only works if the target is {{status|Sleep|asleep}}. Dream Eater inflicts damage and 50% of the damage dealt is restored to the user as {{stat|Hit Points|HP}}. If this attack deals 1 damage, 1 HP will be restored to the user.

If Dream Eater breaks a {{m|substitute}}, no HP will be restored to the user. If HP is restored to the user when its current HP is greater than its maximum HP, its current HP will be set equal to its maximum HP.

Dream Eater will always fail if the target is not asleep.

In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, Dream Eater will always fail if the target has a substitute.

===Generation IV===
If the user has a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Big Root}} as its held item, it will recover 30% more HP than it normally would. Big Root does not increase damage dealt. All other effects remain the same.

==Description==

'''Dream Eater''' (Japanese: '''ゆめくい''' ''Dream Eat'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Psychic}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM42]] in Generation I and II. It lost its status in Generation III before regaining its status as a TM, albeit as [[TM85]], in Generation IV onwards.

==Effect==

===Generation I-III===
Dream Eater only works if the target is {{status|Sleep|asleep}}. Dream Eater inflicts damage and 50% of the damage dealt is restored to the user as {{stat|Hit Points|HP}}. If this attack deals 1 damage, 1 HP will be restored to the user.

If Dream Eater breaks a {{m|substitute}}, no HP will be restored to the user. If HP is restored to the user when its current HP is greater than its maximum HP, its current HP will be set equal to its maximum HP.

Dream Eater will always fail if the target is not asleep.

In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, Dream Eater will always fail if the target has a substitute.

===Generation IV===
If the user has a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Big Root}} as its held item, it will recover 30% more HP than it normally would. Big Root does not increase damage dealt. All other effects remain the same.

==Description==

'''Black''' (Japanese: '''ブラック ''' ''Black'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

For his skills, he is given the title of '''"Dreamer"''' (夢見る者 ''Dreamer''), which he shares with {{adv|White}}.

==Character==
[[File:Black blank.png|thumb|left|125px|Black emptying his mind]]
Black is a young man who aspires to be the Champion of the Unova Pokémon League. He has been dreaming of this since childhood, nine years to be exact. However, these dreams fill his head to the point where he cannot think about anything else and any attempts to cause him to pass out from mental exhaustion. With his Munna, Black can have him {{m|Dream Eater|eat his dreams}}, which he refers to turning his mind from "blank white" to "solid black". Doing this allows him to think much more clearly, become smarter, and improve perception. Also, when he does this, he apparently sees in hexagons. Because of his dreams causing him to forget about other things, Black has the tendency to do things without considering the consequences of his actions and their effects on other people. As the series goes on, Black slowly begins to consider the feelings of others and even manages to be able to think about other things for brief periods of time.

He has been described as "hot blooded" by several characters due to his loud nature and tendency to do things on his own. He doesn't understand show business like White does and many aspects of it surprise him, such as [[Gigi]] and [[Tep]] getting to stay in a hotel room while he and White have to camp out. He is very familiar with libraries and went there frequently as a child, allowing him to complete [[Lenora]]'s Gym puzzle very quickly, setting a new record in the process. Black's tendency to dream also causes him to miss the things happening around him, such as when he completely forgot his promise with his friends {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}} once he received the package holding the Pokémon and [[Pokédex]]es they were going to receive.

==History==
{{spoilers}}
[[File:Black young Adventures.png|thumb|250px|left|Black at age five]]


Black is first seen waiting for a package that is being delivered to his house after waiting all night in the rain. After receiving the package from a mailman, he immediately opens it and finds three Pokémon, {{p|Oshawott}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Snivy}}, and three Pokédexes inside. He jumps in glee and accidentally releases the Pokémon from their Poké Balls after his cold causes him to sneeze and drop the box. The three Pokémon quickly get into a fight and Tepig runs off while Black follows it.

He eventually finds Tepig on a tree being attacked by an unknown Pokémon. Using his deduction skills, he has his {{p|Munna}}, Musha, {{m|Dream Eater|eat}} his dreams, allowing him to find out the attacking Pokémon. Using his abilities, Black and the Tepig defeat the Pokémon, a {{p|Sewaddle}}. Black is able to convince the Tepig to go with him and they set off to start their journey. Before leaving, Black flies to a library to find out the evolved form of Tepig so he can think of a proper name for him. Tepig, mistaking that Black isn't happy with his current form, runs off; Black follows him once more. Black finds Tepig in a cave, sulking and after trying to get him to calm down, accidentally causes a wild {{p|Woobat}} to attack them. Black manages to get Tepig to defeat the Woobat and decides to name him "Tep" instead of a name based on his final form; the two then set off to finally start their adventure.

On {{rt|1|Unova}}, Black meets {{tc|Hiker}} Andy and defeats him in his first Battle. Black finds out that Andy used to have the same dreams as he does, to beat the Pokémon League, but because of his weakness to heat, he had to give up. After putting out a fire, Black manages to convince the Hiker to restart his journey, even letting him join in his morning routine.

[[File:Black Cheren Bianca Gym Battle.png|thumb|right|200px|Black, Bianca, and Cheren in their first Gym battle]]
Later, when doing his normal routine, Black inadvertently interrupts an [[Xtransceiver]] commercial shooting. He meets {{adv|White}}, the representative of the [[BW Agency]] and she tries to convince him to help her by letting his male Tepig, Tep, be partnered with her female Tepig, Gigi, in a movie shooting. Suddenly, five crew members are knocked unconscious and Black is suspected of being the attacker. Black proves his innocence by finding the real culprit, a {{p|Galvantula}}, and defeating it. Black is then pointed out that he, in the process of defeating the Galvantula, destroyed all the camera equipment. He is prevented from getting in trouble for this by White who claims they just hired him and puts the cost for all the damages on the BW Agency. Black is forced to help White till he pays off his debt, fifty paychecks worth of commercials. He now refers to her as "Boss".

The night after, Black and White camp outside and are attacked by an unseen Pokémon. Using his abilities, Black finds out that the Pokémon attacking them is a {{p|Timburr}} that is helping a group of people in knight uniforms known as [[Team Plasma]] build a stage. The next day, Black and White witness one of Team Plasma's "sages", [[Ghetsis]], make a speech that causes the people around them to start releasing their Pokémon.

Enraged, Black goes to try to stop Ghetsis from making any more speeches only to be stopped by a young man named [[N]] who has the ability to understand Pokémon by listening to their hearts. Black and N battle each other, only for Black to suffer a painful defeat while N uses the opportunity to listen to the hearts of Black's Pokémon to see if Pokémon and humans can truly be together.

Later, Black and White travel to [[Striaton City]] so Black can compete in his first Gym battle. There, he encounters Cheren and Bianca who are furious at him for leaving without them and breaking their Pokédexes, leaving his as the only working one. Their fighting causes the Gym Leaders to allow Cheren and Bianca to join the Gym battle along with Black. Together, they traverse through the Gym and face off against the Gym Leaders and succeed in defeating all three of them. After winning, Black apologizes to Cheren and Bianca by giving them a pair of [[Xtransceiver]]s so they can keep in touch.

Later, while traveling to the next town, Black is attacked by an unseen Pokémon after Musha flies off. He wakes up inside of the laboratory of [[Fennel]], a Professor researching Pokémon Trainers and powers that dreams possess. They decide to go look for the runaway Musha and Fennel decides to join them after learning that Musha is a Pokémon that can help with her research. They go to the [[Dreamyard]] and find Musha being held captive by some {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s. Black faces the Grunts in battle and manages to defeat them and regain Musha. After Fennel obtains some [[Dream Mist]] for her research, Black and White say their goodbyes.

Black and White soon arrive in [[Nacrene City]] to do BW Agency advertising. After dealing with a pair of trouble-making Pokémon, Black goes to the Nacrene Gym to battle its Gym Leader, [[Lenora]]. Despite her powerful Pokémon and smart tactics, Black manages to defeat Lenora, winning the Basic Badge in the process.

Having finished everything they needed to do in Nacrene, a frustrated Black attempts to go to the next town but White keeps going into the various stores in town. They soon see Lenora's husband, [[Hawes]], running around in terror because someone had stolen the {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon Fossil at the museum. After using Musha to find clues, Black encounters the Gym Leader [[Burgh]] as he tries to find the thieves. With Burgh's help, Black defeats the Team Plasma members that stole the Fossil and gives it back to the museum. Afterwards, Black and Burgh say their goodbyes and promise to meet again in Castelia City for his Gym battle.

[[File:Black pledge Adventures.png|thumb|left|230px|Black reciting his pledge]]
After going through [[Pinwheel Forest]], Black and White are attacked by an unseen Pokémon. After meeting the president of the Battle Company, Geoff, they find out the attacker was the legendary Pokémon {{p|Virizion}}. Upon arriving in [[Castelia City]], Black and Tep encounter a lost boy crying inside of a building. Black leaves Tep to watch the child while he finds someone to help him. Unbeknownst to Black, the boy is actually a mischievous {{p|Zorua}} in disguise that wreaks havoc throughout the city while Tep chases after it. Eventually, the Zorua escapes, while Black has no idea what really happened while he was away.

After doing more sightseeing, Black is informed by White that he has paid over half of what he owes to her and she intends to pay for his expenses as long as he advertises the BW Agency. After Black accepts, he notices that Tep is about to evolve, an action White refuses due to the possibility that it might affect Tep and Gigi's popularity and hurt sales.

Black then goes to have his Gym battle against Burgh and quickly maneuvers through the Gym's honey walls and faces the Gym Leader in battle. Despite remembering White's protests, Black allows Tep to battle in the Gym, Tep evolving in the process and defeating Burgh's {{p|Dwebble}} and winning the battle for Black. After Black beats Burgh, [[Iris]] arrives with an unconscious Bianca who had her Pokémon stolen from her. Using Musha, Black finds the thieves—Team Plasma—and rescues Bianca's stolen {{p|Litwick}} from them. Afterwards, Black decides to rename Tep "Nite" since he evolved into a {{p|Pignite}}.

Upon the request of Professor Juniper, Black and White go to [[Liberty Garden]] to investigate a Pokémon called {{p|Victini}}. Using Musha, Black finds an injured Victini being chased by three members of Team Plasma, who claim to be trying to protect it from any potential attackers. With Victini's assistance, Black defeats the Team Plasma members and drives them away, allowing Victini to leave and move about freely.

Later, Black and White travel to the [[Desert Resort]] on their way to [[Nimbasa City]]. Due to the powerful sandstorm, Black is forced to wait until White comes back with clothes that will allow them to move about the sandstorm unharmed. As he waits, Black meets [[Grimsley]], one of the Unova Elite Four. Together, they uncover a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}} sneaking around the area and capture him. Later, Grimsley gives Black the option of battling him at the cost of his hard-earned Gym Badges.

Although Black wanted to battle Grimsley, the thought of losing his Badges if he loses the fight causes him to faint by exhausting his mind. Black later awakens in Nimbasa City, having been taken there by White on Brav's back. Black witnesses White put on the newest tourist attraction for Nimbasa City, the [[Pokémon Musical]], and is shocked to see her skills in management. There, Black meets [[Elesa]], the Nimbasa Gym Leader, who tells him to wait until they start their Gym battle.

After the Musical ends, Black and Elesa go to the [[Nimbasa Gym]], where they begin their battle. During the battle, Black gets stuck on the Gym's roller coaster cars, but he decides to continue battling despite being trapped inside. With the help of Tula, Musha, and Nite, Black defeats Elesa and earns the Bolt Badge. Before he can get his Badge, Black is sent to the roof of the Gym, where he encounters the legendary Pokémon, {{p|Thundurus}}. Thundurus quickly shocks Black, freeing him from the roller coaster's car.

[[File:White Battle Subway Adventures.png|thumb|230px|right|Black saying farewell to White]]
Later, Black searches for White, who had gone missing. He quickly finds her being held in the arms of an older man, unconscious. Black immediately attacks the man to try and rescue White, but is easily defeated. He soon finds out that the man is [[Marshal]], one of the Unova Elite Four, who had found White unconscious near the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel. Black takes White off Marshal's hands and takes White to the hospital.

Later, White awakens in the hospital and reveals that earlier, she was attacked at the Ferris Wheel by [[N]], who convinced [[Gigi]] to join his side. Angry, Black tries to get answers from the {{adv|Amanda|Servine}} N gave to White, but is outsmarted at every turn. After getting out of the hospital, Black and White meet {{tc|Baker}} Chris, who reveals to them about the [[Battle Subway]], another recent Nimbasa tourist attraction. They go to the Battle Subway, where they find Marshal battling the Unova Champion, [[Alder]].

Learning about the Battle Subway gives White the idea to try and learn to battle by testing it out for the mayor. As she tries to capture her first Pokémon, Black helps White by capturing a wild {{p|Tirtouga}} as a demonstration. Later, Black learns that the Tirtouga was Marshal's, but was released due to it being hard to control for him. At the Battle Subway, Black and White are forced to separate with each other, but Black lends White his Brav so that she will have three Pokémon to battle with.

As Black prepares to head to [[Driftveil City]], he finds out that the [[Driftveil Drawbridge]] is stuck, preventing anyone from crossing it. After getting help from Elesa, Black manages to cross the bridge, only to find the culprit who messed with the bridge, a wild {{p|Zorua}}, harassing him. Using its {{a|Illusion}} Ability, Zorua manages to confuse Black, but it is eventually defeated and runs away. Afterward, Black meets [[Clay]], the Driftveil Gym Leader, who explains that the Zorua had been causing trouble for him.

Upon arriving at Driftveil City, Black meets up with Cheren again. There, Cheren gets his Snivy stolen by Team Plasma, forcing the two to try and get it back. They go to the [[Cold Storage]], where they fight the Team Plasma Grunts that stole Snivy. With the moves they taught their Pokémon at the Move Tutor, Black and Cheren manage to defeat the Grunts.

Later, Black goes to the Driftveil Gym to get his next Gym Badge, but finds out that Clay has closed the building because of his bad mood. As he waits for the Gym to reopen, Black tries to get his Tirtouga to listen to him, but it refuses to listen to his commands. Later, when the Gym opens up again, Black clears the challenge and meets up with Clay again. Clay tells Black that his Tirtouga will evolve into a {{p|Carracosta}}, giving Black the idea to name it "Costa."

Clay also states that he heard about Black from the other Gym Leaders, who gave praise to the boy. Clay reveals that earlier, he dug up a mysterious stone at [[Twist Mountain]]. When Black asks him about this, Clay reveals that the stone is the Dark Stone, also known as one of Unova's legendary Pokémon, {{p|Zekrom}}. Clay promises to tell Black more about it if he can defeat him in battle. Although Clay's team proves to be strong, Black manages to defeat all of Clay's Pokémon, giving him the victory.

Defeated, Clay reveals to Black that Lenora had been spied upon by Team Plasma, who they believe is aiming to steal the Dark Stone. Clay also reveals that the other Gym Leaders know about this and have decided to gather together and face Team Plasma to prevent them from stealing the Dark Stone. They travel to Mistralton City where they meet up with Burgh, Elesa, [[Skyla]], and [[Brycen]] and prepare to wait for Lenora's signal. As they wait, Skyla takes Black to the [[Celestial Tower]] and forces him to ring the bell so that she could determine whether or not Black is good enough to help them.

Dissatisfied with the sound of the bell's ringing, Skyla pushes Black off of the tower and takes him to the Mistralton Gym for a Gym battle. Due to Clay's warning that because of Team Plasma's actions, the League may be cancelled this year, Black's ability to battle wanes due to him being stressed out. Black decides to take his stress and use it to face Team Plasma. After giving some encouragement to his team, Black defeats Skyla, earning him the Jet Badge. Skyla takes off with the other Gym Leaders to Nacrene City and has Black come along with them.

After arriving, Black is tasked with finding the Dark Stone while the Gym Leaders face the [[Shadow Triad]]. After defeating the Plasma Grunts inside the museum, a loud rumbling noise leads Black outside to investigate it. Much to his shock, the Shadow Triad have revealed that they have captured the legendary Pokémon {{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}. The three Pokémon quickly overpower the Gym Leaders and knock them out. Despite Clay's protests, Black and his newly-evolved Nite try to save them, only to be easily swatted away.

Although defeated, Lenora reveals that the battle destroyed the only key to where the Dark Stone is kept, which means that the Shadow Triad can't get the stone. Despite this, the Shadow Triad take the defeated Gym Leaders away while Black is forced to watch. However, he quickly finds out that [[Brycen]] managed to escape and has come to help him. Black, realizing that he already knows where the Dark Stone is being kept, takes Brycen to where he fought Lenora previously and finds the Dark Stone hidden there.

Although happy to have found the Dark Stone, Black is attacked by Ghetsis, revealing that the Brycen that had escaped earlier was a Plasma Grunt in disguise. Black is knocked unconscious, while Ghetsis takes the Dark Stone to N so that it can be revived into {{p|Zekrom}}. Later, Black is found by the real Brycen, who actually managed to escape from the Shadow Triad.

Brycen calls [[Drayden]] and informs him of what had happened. They reveal that the Light Stone, which holds the other Dragon-type of Unova, {{p|Reshiram}}, was in the same location as the Dark Stone the entire time. The Light Stone quickly rolls over to Black and chooses him as the hero destined to awaken it. Brycen decides that Black will need to become stronger for future battles and he takes the unconscious boy to begin training.

Black is taken to the [[Tubeline Bridge]], where he is tasked with having to break free from the ice chain around his leg created by Brycen's {{p|Cryogonal}}. Together with Nite, now named Buoh, Black manages to break free from the ice chain and complete the first step. After completing the second step, Black's final training is to defeat the {{tc|Biker|Black Empoleon}} biker gang. With the help of Costa, Black is able to fully complete his training.

Afterward, {{tc|Doctor|Logan}} takes Black to the Icirrus Gym so that he can have a Gym battle with Brycen. During the Gym battle, Brycen reveals that he has the Light Stone with him, and that he intends on giving it to Black after the battle. The final battle ends when Costa evolves into a Carracosta, giving it the power its needs to defeat Brycen's Beartic and earn the Icicle Badge for its Trainer. Once the battle is over, Brycen hands the Light Stone to Black. Black attempts to summon Reshiram, only to get no response.

Despite this victory, Black is shocked to learn that Drayden has pushed up the League's date from three months to a week. He begins panicking at the thought of not being able to complete in the League and runs off with Iris following after him. Black's travels takes him to the Mistralton Cave, where he decides to catch one of the legendary Pokémon he heard about from Iris so that he could have a force to combat the ones used by Team Plasma. There, he meets Shokō of the {{p|Patrat}} show whose friend, Trish of {{tc|The Riches|the Riches}}, was captured by Virizion, {{p|Terrakion}}, and {{p|Cobalion}} after she tried to capture them herself.

==Pokémon==
When nicknaming his Pokémon, Black takes the name of the Pokémon's final evolution and makes a name from that. The only exception is Buoh, whose name is based off of his current form and changed every time he evolved.

According to [[Marshal]], Costa belonged to him but he released it the day before Black caught it because it was stubborn and would not listen to him. Due to it not being used to battling, Costa would not listen to any of Black's commands but eventually became friendly after a Gym battle with [[Clay]]. In Black's Gym battle against [[Brycen]], Costa evolved into a Carracosta and managed to defeat his {{p|Beartic}}, giving Black the win.

After the Shadow Triad stole the {{DL|Dragon Stones|Dark Stone}} from the Nacrene Gym, the Light Stone rolled towards an unconscious Black, having chosen him as the hero to wield it. Brycen took the Light Stone and Black to [[Icirrus City]] to train him and make him able to wield Reshiram's power. After Black defeated Brycen in their Gym battle, Brycen entrusted the Light Stone to Black.

When Black found N in a battle against Alder, Reshiram felt the presence of N's Zekrom, causing it to be released from the Light Stone. However, with a glare from Zekrom, Reshiram returned to its Stone, indicating Black's inability to control it. After winning the Unova League tournament, Black's resolve to defeat Team Plasma finally allowed Reshiram to be fully released from the Light Stone.

Reshiram's only known move is {{m|Fusion Flare}}.}}

'''Platinum Berlitz''' (Japanese: '''プラチナ・ベルリッツ''' ''Platinum Berlitz'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]] and the female main character for the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} and the {{chap|Platinum}} story arcs. At first, she was only known by her family name; her given name is the same as the then unreleased third version to {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}: {{v2|Platinum}}.

For her skills, she is given the title of '''"{{p|Uxie|Understander}}"''' (知る者 ''Understander'').

==Character==
Platinum is a member of the house of Berlitz, a 200-year old and {{wp|zaibatsu|extremely financially powerful family}} of [[Sinnoh]]. She wears diamond and pearl rings. She does not give her name to commoners, instead insisting that they refer to her as '''Lady{{tt|*|Missy in the Chuang Yi versions}}''' (Japanese: '''お嬢様''' ''Ojōsama'', a term used to refer to the daughter of someone of high class).

She is very knowledgeable as a result of reading lots of books during her childhood. However, since beginning her journey she has decided that it is better to actually experience as much as possible. For this reason, Platinum challenges the [[Gym]]s of Sinnoh and also takes on other challenges such as the {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s of [[Hearthome City]]. She has shown a natural tendency to recognize patterns and has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of various areas of Sinnoh and Pokémon in general, although towards the beginning of her journey, she had difficulty dealing with wild Pokémon. Despite her knowledgeable nature, Platinum originally had troubles with managing her money but was able to overcome this in her challenge of the Battle Castle. Being highly knowledgeable, she is associated with {{p|Uxie}}.

Platinum is amazed by the closeness of Pearl and Diamond, as well as their various skills: Pearl's assortment of {{pkmn|battle|battling}} advice and Diamond's ability to cook [[Poffin]]s and instincts on Pokémon. She also is an audience for their various Manzai attempts and is amused by them at times. Platinum often can be demanding of Pearl, annoying him. Platinum is also unaware of a [[CommonerShipping|crush]] Diamond has on her. It seems that, after saving her from [[Team Galactic]], Platinum gains respect for Diamond and Pearl, by calling them by their first names, but, she still refuses to give her name. The boys assume her name is "Lady", hearing it from Pearl's [[Chatler]], who repeated it from a conversation between Platinum and her butler. After formally accepting them as her bodyguards and friends, she revealed her real name to them.

==History==
==={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}===
[[File:Platinum Berlitz.png|thumb|left|Platinum in the seventh chapter]]

Platinum is introduced at the beginning of the seventh chapter as a member of the ancient Berlitz family, which has a tradition for its member's coming of age to travel to the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]] to obtain materials to make their personal family crest. At the suggestion of the Berlitz's butler, {{adv|Sebastian}}, her father hired [[Paka and Uji|two bodyguards]] to protect her on her journey. [[Professor Rowan]] provided her with three [[Pokédex]]es, three [[Pokétch]]es, and the three Sinnoh [[starter Pokémon]] so that Platinum would share them with her bodyguards to assist him in his research.

However, because {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} coincidentally match the bodyguards' description—one in a red scarf and the other in a green scarf—Platinum presumes they are her bodyguards instead, and the duo think that this journey is a sort of {{wp|Reality television|reality TV show}}. Platinum assumed that they were actually her bodyguards, chosen so the trio would not seem odd.

After several misadventures, the three reach [[Oreburgh City]] where Platinum plans to have her first Gym Battle. Platinum goes to challenge the Oreburgh Gym and battles the Gym Leader, [[Roark]]. Despite initial troubles, Platinum manages to defeat him with the assistance of Diamond and Pearl. Next, the group arrives at the [[Floaroma Town]] where they meet the daughter of the [[Valley Windworks]] Manager whose father had gone missing. They go to the Windworks to find out what happened and is attacked by a [[Mars|mysterious woman]]. Platinum watches as she defeats Diamond and Pearl and escapes with a windmill. After watching the two boys risk their lives, she gains a new set of respect for them and starts calling them by their first names.

After an adventure in the [[Old Chateau]], Platinum and her traveling companions meet [[Gardenia]], the [[Eterna City]] Gym Leader. After getting acquainted with her, Platinum begins training for her next Gym battle; the training causes Piplup, [[Chimler]], and [[Tru]] to evolve into their first stage forms. They meet [[Cynthia]], a passerby that had witnessed the evolution of their Pokémon who offers to help her with her Gym training. Next, Platinum challenges the Gym where she battles against Gardenia. Platinum manages to defeat her after taking advantage of Gardenia's battle strategy. They are given bikes by [[Rad Rickshaw]] who believes that they had rescued him from the clutches of [[Team Galactic]] and with the help of Diamond and Pearl, she learns how to ride it.

Next, the group travels to [[Mt. Coronet]] where they are attacked by [[Cyrus]], the leader of Team Galactic because they were annoying him. After being rescued from the rubble by Diamond and a [[Rayler|wild Luxray]], they arrive at [[Hearthome City]] where enters the {{pkmn|Super Contest}}. After a misunderstanding, the audience decides to sabotage Platinum's performance and she becomes discouraged. Despite the initial trouble, with some encouragement from Diamond, Platinum is able to win the Contest; she then takes Diamond and Pearl to accept the Ribbon together, as they helped her through it. They later meet the Hearthome Gym Leader, [[Fantina]], and she takes them to the [[Lost Tower]] where Platinum watches two Trainers battle against some Pokémon.
[[File:Platinum dress.png|thumb|right|200px|Platinum during a Super Contest]]
After separating from Fantina, Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl arrive in [[Solaceon Town]], where they meet the [[Pokémon News Press]] and help a pair of {{p|Unown}} find their friends in the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. After arriving at [[Veilstone City]], Platinum finds the [[Veilstone Game Corner]], and mistakes it for a hotel. Platinum develops a slight gambling addiction and continues playing the slots until Diamond and Pearl find her and take her to the hotel they were staying at. After practicing with an item that Platinum had won at the slots, they almost hit a young woman with an {{m|Ember}} fired by Chimler. The girl introduces herself to them as the Veilstone Gym Leader, [[Maylene]], and accepts Platinum's Gym challenge. Later, at the Gym, Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl go through the Gym and they eventually get to Maylene's location.

As they begin battling, Platinum is shocked to find out that her Pokédex has gone missing and without it, she is unable to concentrate. After Diamond (who she had sent to find her Pokédex) reports to Pearl that he had found the Pokédex, he and Platinum get into a brief argument about Platinum breaking her promise to not go back to the Game Corner. Platinum quickly regains her composure and is able to defeat Maylene and reveals that she had never gone back to the Game Corner, but was almost tempted to.

After they walk in the dark streets of Veilstone after defeating Maylene, Platinum is knocked out by two unknown figures (actually her real bodyguards, Paka and Uji) and taken to the [[Veilstone Department Store]]. Eventually, she wakes up while Diamond, Pearl, Paka, and Uji battle Team Galactic outside and decides to work out with the exercise equipment she found inside of it.

Later, after the conflict with Team Galactic is resolved, Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl travel to Lake Valor, where they meet [[Dr. Footstep]]. After a wild {{p|Hippowdon}} sends them flying, Platinum and Diamond land near the lake and are attacked by two {{tc|Scientist}}s that were preventing anyone from going near it. They eventually defeat the scientists and meet up with Pearl and Dr. Footstep.

Later, at the [[Great Marsh]], Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl try to capture some Pokémon for Platinum to use in her Gym battle against the [[Pastoria City]] Gym Leader, [[Crasher Wake]]. After a series of failed events, Platinum just opts for borrowing Diamond's Tru and goes to the Gym despite being covered in mud. Platinum goes through the Gym, reaches Crasher Wake, and after a tough battle, is able to defeat him with Tru.

They later travel to the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}} where they meet up with Cynthia again and help her with a {{p|Psyduck}} outbreak on [[Sinnoh Route 210|Route 210]]. They meet Cynthia's grandmother and follow her to the [[Celestic Town]] so that they can see the ruins. The ruins are attacked by the leader of Team Galactic, Cyrus, who battles Diamond and Pearl while Platinum and Cynthia's grandmother watch from the sidelines. After Cyrus makes his leave, Platinum and the others meet up with Fantina again and fly to her Gym at Hearthome City. After some training, Platinum challenges the Gym where she finds some difficulty because of the Gyms challenge forcing Trainers to think logically with math problems and then dropping that logic while facing Fantina. Fantina has her {{p|Mismagius}} create confusing illusions during the battle, causing the knowledgeable and logical Platinum to get painful headache. With some encouragement from Pearl, Platinum manages to overcome the illusion and is able to defeat Fantina.

Soon after, Platinum and the others find a news report on Fantina's television about Professor Rowan and his assistant, Platinum's father, having gone missing. Platinum, worried about her father, immediately sets off to [[Canalave City]], the place where they went missing, and ends up in the [[Canalave Gym]] after hearing her fathers voice inside of it. There, the group meets Gym Leader [[Byron]] and Platinum, believing him to be the cause of her fathers disappearance, attacks and easily defeats his Pokémon. After some clearing up, Platinum finds out that Byron did in fact, not kidnap the scientists, but is instead trying to figure out how to free them from a special cage that a [[Advanced level Grunt|Galactic Grunt]] had trapped them in.
[[File:Platinum new clothes.png|file|thumb|230px|Platinum's new clothes]]
Platinum goes to talk to her father and Professor Rowan and is shocked to find out that Diamond and Pearl are not her true bodyguards and that they have been lying to her the whole time. Needing some time to think, Platinum runs off; later that night, Platinum approached by the Advanced level Grunt while sleeping, he frees the Professor and Platinum's father and reveals Team Galactic's plans to her. The next day, after Diamond and Pearl have revealed everything to Byron, Professor Rowan, and Sir Berlitz and are about to leave, Platinum stops them, reads a letter that is filled with apologies for every time she has lied to them and finally tells them her full name.

Ignoring her father's protests, Platinum decides that she, Diamond, and Pearl shall split up to save the [[legendary Pokémon]] from the clutches of Team Galactic. After receiving the Mine Badge from Byron, Platinum sets off to northern area, [[Snowpoint City]] which holds [[Lake Acuity]]. The next morning, while in a hotel, Platinum sheds tears over to the fact that the sound her Pokédex makes when it is near Diamond and Pearl's, the "morning sound", is not playing, showing that she is truly alone for the first time.

After arriving at [[Sinnoh Route 216|Route 216]], Platinum decides to try skiing and accidentally ends up angering a group of {{p|Graveler}} on her first attempt. She manages to get away from them but gets caught in the snowstorm and almost freezes to death before being saved by Snowpoint Gym Leader, [[Candice]]. After putting on her new coat, Platinum notices Maylene walking through the snow and joins her while she gives her a tour of Snowpoint. After Maylene tells Platinum about Lake Acuity, she runs off to the [[Snowpoint Gym]] to get permission to go there by Candice.

After literally plowing her way through the Gyms challenge, Platinum reaches Candice and begins battling her. Though Platinum starts off with the advantage, things quickly get bad for her but she eventually manages to defeat Candice with the help of her newest team member, {{p|Lopunny}}. After receiving the Icicle Badge from Candice, she and Maylene join Platinum in her goal to stop Team Galactic from blowing up the three lakes. After taking a shortcut, they all eventually make it to Lake Acuity where they are confronted by one of the Team Galactic Commanders, [[Jupiter]]. Despite their best efforts, Jupiter is far too powerful for any of them to handle and are subsequently defeated. Jupiter succeeds in capturing {{p|Uxie}} while Platinum is forced to take Candice, Maylene, and herself to a [[Snowpoint Temple|mysterious temple]] while she has her Rapidash use his flames to protect them from the cold. Before falling unconscious, Platinum hears the sound of a Pokémon and tries to capture it in case it tries to attack them but falls asleep before she can; her Poké Ball then rolls into the temple, revealing a mysterious {{p|Regigigas|silhouette}}.

[[File:Berlitz crest.png|thumb|left|200px|Platinum's brooch with her family crest on it]]
Later, Platinum wakes up in the Snowpoint Pokémon Center with no idea as to how she got there. Deciding to get stronger, Candice calls Byron and tells him to send a strong person to train them for a rematch with Jupiter. They go to the [[Spring Path]] to meet up with their tutor, the Sunyshore Gym Leader, [[Volkner]]. Due to a misunderstanding, Volkner loses interest in training them but with some begging from Platinum, he changes his mind and agrees to help while also making the training a Gym Battle.

After finishing her training and receiving the Beacon Badge, Platinum rushes off to the [[Galactic Veilstone Building]] while Candice and Maylene stay behind to finish their training. Platinum manages to easily sneak inside thanks to a previously laid distraction made by Pearl and begins searching for the [[Lake guardians]]. As she searches, her Pokédex begins ringing the morning sound, telling Platinum that Pearl and Diamond are somewhere nearby. Platinum manages to maneuver through a room filled with smoke and a loud painful noise created by the battle with Diamond and the Advanced level Grunt and reaches the container that has Uxie locked inside of it but is trapped inside with the Advanced level Grunt's {{p|Cradily}}. Realizing the Grunt's obsession with the Pokédex will be his weakness, Diamond commands the other two to sacrifice their Pokédexes in order to distract them. Though painful at first, they do it, distracting the Grunt's Pokémon long enough for all three to press the button that would release {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}.

Cynthia finds the three lying on the ground, knocked unconscious from the light that the Lake guardians created, and hastily takes them to the [[Spear Pillar]]. While traveling on [[Cynthia's Garchomp]], Platinum gives Diamond a {{p|Mamoswine}} that he names Moo and reveals her newly earned Icicle and Beacon Badges. They eventually reach the Spear Pillar and the effect of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s battle causes time and space to distort around them. While Diamond and Pearl battle Dialga and Palkia, Platinum and Cynthia find the Gym Leaders, all knocked out from a previous battle by Cyrus. Candice, Gardenia, and Maylene all manage to wake up and give Platinum a {{p|Froslass}}, {{p|Cherrim}}, and {{p|Pachirisu}} but an attack fired from Dialga and Palkia breaks their Poké Balls, preventing them from being used. The attack causes a scroll that Cynthia was holding to fall out; Platinum picks it up and is able to read the archaic text on it that reveals the powers of Dialga and Palkia.

Time and Space begin to distort even further, sending people and Pokémon to random locations, even sending Dr. Footstep to the Spear Pillar. A black hole begins to form in the sky and begins sucking everyone into it while Platinum, Pearl, and Diamond try to keep the unconscious Gym Leaders from being sucked into it. As Diamond battles Dialga and Palkia with his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} and gives a speech on his view of Time and Space, Platinum realizes that his words are causing an imbalance on the Red Chain that is controlling the dragons. Platinum commands Diamond and Pearl to attack Dialga and Palkia at full power and they succeed in destroying the Red Chain, freeing them from Cyrus's control. Dialga and Palkia defeat Cyrus and the Sinnoh [[Pokédex holder]]s celebrate their victory with a fist bump while Cynthia, Dialga and Palkia smile right next to them.

With Cyrus defeated and Platinum being on the Spear Pillar, she manages to make the crest that she had set out to do at the beginning of the seventh chapter. Platinum learns of the fate of her original bodyguards from Diamond and Pearl and decides that she has to go rescue them. As they go to take the Gym Leaders and Cyrus to the hospital, Diamond spots someone spying on them with a strange machine. Byron, the [[Underground Man]], Sir Berlitz, and Professor Rowan, all emerge from the ground and when Byron takes the machine from the man, it causes {{p|Giratina|mysterious black tentacles}} to shoot from the black hole and pull Dialga, Palkia, and the unconscious Cyrus into it. The man introduces himself as [[Charon]] and makes his escape; Diamond's {{DL|Diamond (Adventures)|Kit}} manages to steal a notebook from him just before he disappears from view.

Next, Platinum's mother, Professor Yanase Berlitz, is seen on a ship and receives a call from Platinum. She tells her daughter that they have found where Paka and Uji may have been sent to, the [[Distortion World]].

==={{chap|Platinum}}===
The eighth chapter opens up with Platinum writing a letter to her mother that reveals that she is going to the [[Battle Zone]] alone while Diamond and Pearl are investigating the notes that were taken from Charon. She buys a [[villa]] and decides to use it as her base of operations. Platinum notices someone approaching her and attacks with her Lopunny; the person is revealed to be member of the International Police, [[Looker]]. They team up so that they can gather information about the Distortion World from the people in the Battle Zone.

After an accident involving Lady [[Caitlin]], Platinum decides to challenge the [[Battle Castle]] first. They travel to the Battle Castle and Platinum starts her challenge of the facility. At first, it seems like Platinum can easily get through the challenge but starts getting worried when she learns she has to manage her Castle Points, and as a rich young woman, managing is something she has never done before. Eventually, she manages to reach the Frontier Brain, [[Castle Valet Darach]], and does battle with him. Despite initial trouble, she manages to defeat him, learning how to manage her assets in the process.

After winning her first [[commemorative print]], she and Looker are introduced to [[Buck]], who had overheard them talking about [[Stark Mountain]]. Buck takes a picture of Team Galactic and goes to Stark Mountain under the belief that they are sneaking around there to capture the legendary Pokémon {{p|Heatran}} while Platinum and Looker go back to the villa to decide what their next plan is. The next morning, Platinum goes to the [[Battle Arcade]] after being entranced by the odd music of the Battle Arcade's spokesman.

She goes through the Battle Arcade easily thanks to the skills she had gained by playing on the slots in Veilstone City. Eventually she reaches the Frontier Brain, [[Arcade Star Dahlia]], and begins battling her. Due to an unexpected earthquake, Platinum is unable to press the button that signifies the event the battle will have and Dahlia does it instead. The roulette stops on the Pokémon swap button, causing Platinum and Dahlia to switch their teams. Platinum, unable to harm her own Pokémon, has troubles fighting Dahlia but some words of encouragement from the Arcade Star allow her to turn the battle around and defeat her.
[[File:Platinum Pokémon return.png|thumb|left|200px|Platinum's Pokémon with Looker and Buck]]
After thanking her injured Pokémon, Dahlia gives her the commemorative print and takes her to [[Factory Head Thorton|Thorton]], another Frontier Brain that knows more about the Distortion World than she does. When they try to talk to him, the videophone's reception breaks up, preventing Platinum from getting the information she needed. Platinum decides to go and challenge the Battle Factory and meet up with Thorton in person instead.

Before going to the Battle Factory, Platinum reveals that she chose that location not because of the fact that she can get the information she needed, but instead because of the fact that the Battle Factory uses [[rental Pokémon]]. Having waited five hours since Looker left for Stark Mountain, a worried Platinum takes her newly-healed {{p|Pachirisu}}, {{p|Froslass}}, and {{p|Cherrim}} from the storage system and sends them and her other three Pokémon off to help Looker.

Afterwards, she challenges the Battle Factory and is determined to win for Looker and her Pokémon. Eventually, Platinum reaches the final match and meets Thorton but is taken aback by his quirky nature. Despite Thorton's belief that knowledge is important in battles, Platinum proves that her knowledge is far more superior and defeats him. After receiving the commemorative print, Platinum meets the two remaining Frontier Brains, [[Tower Tycoon Palmer]] and [[Hall Matron Argenta]].

Next, Platinum challenges the Battle Hall and faces Argenta in battle. It is revealed that after meeting Palmer and Argenta, her Pokémon had returned from Stark Mountain with a heavily injured Looker and Buck with them. With the Froslass she received from Candice, Platinum succeeds in defeating Argenta, much to Palmer's surprise. After receiving her fourth print, Palmer takes her to a room with Darach, Thorton, and [[Riley]] inside.

Touched by their determination to help her despite the Battle Frontier losing its connection to the Sinnoh mainland, Platinum is reminded of her times with Diamond and Pearl. After talking to Palmer, she figures out that he is Pearl's father and compliments the skills he passed onto his son, embarrassing Palmer in the process.

Later, after the proper preparations have been made, Platinum, along with Palmer, Riley, [[Cheryl]], and [[Mira]] leave to the Distortion World. After traveling far enough, they arrive at the [[Spring Path]], but find that [[Marley]] has been captured by the [[Advanced level Grunt]]. However, the Grunt reveals that he does not want to fight and has escaped from Team Galactic. Platinum forces him to take them to where the Distortion World is and gets a call from Pearl who tries to inform her that Diamond was killed in their battle against Charon.

They go to the [[Sendoff Spring]] and enter the Distortion World, but get separated upon arriving due to the dimension's strange gravity. There, Platinum meets her real bodyguards, Paka and Uji, and witnesses Volkner and his friend, Flint, fighting Giratina, only to lose.

Not long after, Diamond and Pearl arrive while riding on Dialga's back after they hear her voice. After they reunite with Paka and Uji, the Advanced level Grunt returns the stolen Pokédexes back to their proper owners.

As the battle between the legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. When Charon decides to escape, Platinum, Pearl, and Diamond each take a different legendary Pokémon to fly and chase after him before he can trap everyone inside the Distortion World. They fly and eventually make it outside to Sunyshore City, where Charon is finished off by a surprise attack from Cynthia.

Charon tries to escape like he did at the Spear Pillar, only to be cornered by Platinum, Pearl, and Diamond. Although defeated, Charon refuses to give up, and uses his machine to try and make Platinum, Pearl, and Diamond's Pokémon attack each other. The machine is quickly destroyed by a toy of Proteam Omega, which is revealed to be possessed by Rotom.

With Charon defeated, everyone who was left behind in the Distortion World emerges from it safe and unharmed. Cyrus disbands Team Galactic, but thanks the three before leaving with Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter. Giratina tries to attack one last time, but is stopped by Volkner and Flint and is driven back into the Distortion World by Dialga and Palkia, this time without any desire for revenge.

Charon is arrested by Looker, who gives Diamond a Pokémon Egg given to him from the Fiore Region before leaving to his next mission in Unova. Having emerged from everything victorious, the three give each other a fist bump. Later, Platinum watches as the sole audience member as Diamond and Pearl gives her a comedy routine, which she hadn't seen in a while.

Sometime later, at the Solaceon Day Care Center, Diamond and Pearl train with {{p|Phione}}, a Pokémon that hatched from the Pokémon Egg that Looker gave them. Platinum giggles as the two play with the Pokémon and get into a brief argument. The owners of the Day Care recall of a {{adv|Gold|Trainer}} that hatched a [[Togebo|Pokémon]] with a similar personality to his in the Johto region.

==Trivia==
* In the beginning of the ''Diamond & Pearl'' chapter of Pokémon Adventures, there were some moments where Platinum's first name was actually said, but her first name was always covered by another speech bubble to show that it was drowned out by that person's speech.
* Platinum is one of three Pokédex holders to have a known last name, the other two are {{adv|Blue}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}. Out of the three, she is the only one not to share her last name with an in-game {{pkmn|professor}}, as she is not related to one.
* Platinum is the only female Pokédex holder who does not name her Pokémon.
* [[James]], [[Juan]] and [[Selphy]] also have butlers named Sebastian.
* As pointed out by [[Byron]], Platinum managed to break the [[Timeline of Ruby and Sapphire's 80-day challenge|80-day]] record of obtaining all [[Badge]]s of one region, previously held by {{adv|Sapphire}}.
**She obtained six Badges in just 25 days, while Sapphire had obtained three Badges in the same amount of time.
* Platinum is the only character in Pokémon Adventures based on a female player character to be the main titular arc of her own, unlike Green, Crystal, Sapphire, and White, who all shared the title of their arc with another character, and Yellow, who was not based on a playable female character.

Talk:Calem (game)

2013-07-01T03:11:59Z

Duke R: /* Friends */ new section

==Why?==

Um, why does the trivia say: "'''''Prior to the release''''' of Pokémon X and Y, pre-release media '''''reffered''''' to Calem as "Xavier." "

Wouldn't it make more sense to say: "'''''Currently''''' Pokémon X and Y pre-release media '''''is reffering''''' to Calem as "Xavier." "?
You know, beacause the game ''isn't actually released yet''? ★☆[[User:Togetic45|'''Toge''']][[User talk:Togetic45|'''tic''']][[Special:Contributions/Togetic45|'''45''']]☆★ 15:12, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

:It would make more sense to hide it until October 12th, same with [[Serena|Yvonne]]'s trivia. --[[User:Relicant|'''Reli'''★'''ジーランス''']]'''?''' 15:39, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
::Why would we hide it? We know their real names ''now''. [[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon (Pokémon)|★]] [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]][[Cilan (anime)|♥]] 16:38, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

Because the game hasn't been released yet. It's just stupid to have trivia about their prerelease names up here when it's not even October 12th yet. (Also Xavier and Yvonne need to be turned into redirects, Whitlea and Blair are) --[[User:Relicant|'''Reli'''★'''ジーランス''']]'''?''' 16:43, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

== Player versus NPC ==

Judging from where both Xavier and Calem's names are located on the official website, why can't we say that the NPC's name is Calem and that the identical player's name is Xavier? Obviously, they don't have the same plotline (one being your neighbor and one being you), so technically they could be considered separate characters. Besides, the official website is actually using both names, in what seem to be these two situations. I know that this is a rather complicated way to put it, and it may be easier to call him Calem and say that Xavier was exclusively prerelease (although Calem technically is, too), but this is what the website seems to be saying, and saying otherwise would be just as speculative, if not more so. (For proof of my statements, see the official website's "Characters" part of the X and Y section.) [[User:EpicDeino|EpicDeino]] ([[User talk:EpicDeino|talk]]) 17:45, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
:No. This happens every single game. When you play as {{ga|May}}, you get {{ga|Brendan}} and your neighbor. When you play as {{ga|Lucas}}, {{ga|Dawn}} is [[Professor Rowan]]'s assistant. When you play as {{ga|Ethan}}, {{ga|Lyra}} is your neighbor. When you play as {{ga|Hilbert}} or {{ga|Nate}}, {{ga|Hilda}} or {{ga|Rosa}} is your [[Battle Subway]] partner. It's the same thing that happens every single game. The names as NPCs are the official names. Xavier and Yvonne are just placeholder names, which they also use every game. The Japanese site just uses X and Y, respectively. Which aren't names at all. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 17:52, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

'''Feefee''' is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} owned by {{adv|Ruby}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}.

==History==
[[File:Feefee Feebas.png|thumb|left|As a Feebas]]
Ruby fished Feefee in {{rt|118|Hoenn}}, while helping a {{tc|Swimmer}} in order to apologize for messing up his fishing traps. Thinking she was hideous, Ruby threw her back into the river, but she kept coming after his fishing pole despite the fact the Ruby kept throwing Feefee back into the water. When the swimmer realized that Ruby was fishing and discarding Feebas away he explained that, while not knowing the reason, Feebas was very valuable. After learning that, Ruby tried to fish her once more, but was unable to do so. Feefee reappeared when Ruby and the Swimmer were being attacked by {{p|Zangoose}} and {{p|Seviper}}, to return Ruby's [[PokéNav]] and ended up protecting them from the two enraged Pokémon.

Seeing that Feefee had protected them and took a liking to Ruby, the Swimmer forced Ruby to keep her. Ruby initially intended to release Feefee as soon as he had the opportunity to but later decided that using such an ugly Pokémon to win the [[Beauty Contest|Beauty]] segment of [[Pokémon Contests]] would be a good test to his {{pkmn|Coordinator}} skills. Feefee eventually won both the {{to|Verdanturf}} and {{to|Fallarbor}} Contests. Ruby decided not to use Feefee when he challenged [[Wallace]] for an unofficial Contest, however.

Ruby used her again in the {{ci|Slateport}} Contest, but by Wallace's request, the judges all voted against her. Ruby, frustrated by {{adv|Sapphire}}'s words during their last meeting, unleashed his rage in Feefee, saying she didn't deserve to be in his team and kicking her out of it, although he realized soon after that he was wrong to do so and tried to get Feefee back, but to no avail.

Feefee later went all the way to [[Sootopolis City]] in order to reunite with Ruby. She was then hurt and humiliated by [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]] who said such ugly creatures didn't deserve to exist, but Ruby realized Feefee's inner beauty was greater than any external beauty and, after receiving the Beauty Contest Hyper Rank Ribbon from Wallace, gave it to Feefee and finally gave her own introductory speech. Feefee then evolved into {{p|Milotic}}, the Pokémon Ruby has been searching for since he met [[Mr. Briney]] and helped in the battle against the two leaders. She later won the Master Rank of Beauty Contests.

She was also used by Ruby in his battle against {{adv|Emerald}} in the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Dome}}, but she was defeated by [[Emerald's Sceptile|his Sceptile]].

'''White''' (Japanese: '''ホワイト''' ''White'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

For her skills, she is given the title of '''"Dreamer"''' (夢見る者 ''Dreamer''), which she shares with {{adv|Black}}.
==Character==
[[File:Young White Adventures.png|thumb|170px|left|White as a child]]
White is the president and manager of the [[BW Agency]], a company that has a large supply of Pokémon actors that can be used for commercials, plays, movies, and stunts. Whenever her company's reputation is put on the line, she will do anything to prevent its name from being ruined.

White is reluctant to battle, as shown when she started to panic when Black said that she may need to fight in his battle with N and when Gigi was attacked by N's Purrloin, instead of attacking back, she scolded it for attacking an actress. Unlike Black, she did not possess a Pokédex at the beginning of the chapter, and, until Black showed it to her, she did not know what it was. She was much later entrusted a Pokédex to by Bianca.

When it comes to show business, White is an expert. She is extremely talented in organizing and planning along with recruiting people to join the BW Agency.

It is later revealed that as a child, White viewed a musical—which were human-only at that point—and saw a {{p|Cubchoo}} walk up on the stage. After seeing how the people enjoyed seeing the Cubchoo take part in the musical, she wanted to make something that Pokémon who loved to perform could do.

==History==
{{spoilers}}
White first appears watching the shooting for a [[Xtransceiver]] commercial when she encounters {{adv|Black}} shouting out his ambition to become a Master {{pkmn|Trainer}}. When she discovers he has a male Tepig, she decides to hire him, due to her believing she had needed to bring only a female Tepig, only to learn she really needed both genders. When Black is suspected of sabotaging White's commercial shooting, she tries to prove his innocence (actually just trying to not get him arrested, due to the fact that if he was arrested, so would his Tepig) and watches as he finds the real culprit, a {{p|Galvantula}}, and defeating it at the cost of the shooting equipment. She pays for the destroyed equipment and states that she hired Black for her company, forcing him to call her "Boss."

The night after, White and Black camp outside and are attacked by an unseen Pokémon. Using his abilities, Black finds out that the Pokémon attacking them is a {{p|Timburr}} that is helping a group of people in knight uniforms known as [[Team Plasma]] build a stage. The next day, White and Black witness one of Team Plasma's "sages", [[Ghetsis]], make a speech that causes the people around them to start releasing their Pokémon.

When an enraged Black tries to stop them from making anymore speeches, White stops him because it isn't his business. While they talk about whether or not Team Plasma is correct, White is called away for business reasons. After talking to the director, White returns to back where Black was only to find him in battle with someone else. In the ensuing battle White learns that the person Black is fighting is named [[N]] and he has the ability to hear the voices of Pokémon, allowing him to communicate with them.

After Black is defeated, White becomes convinced that N is a part of Team Plasma and becomes disgusted at their actions. Black denies this and states that even if he is a part of Team Plasma, N is a good person. Afterwards, they travel to [[Striaton City]] so Black can challenge the Gym; while Black challenges the Gym, White goes off somewhere else. After the Gym battle, White meets Black's childhood friends, {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}} and advertises her BW Agency to them; the two groups then go their separate ways.

After encountering [[Fennel]] and [[Amanita]] at the [[Site of Dreams]], White and Black arrive in [[Nacrene City]]. After advertising her BW Agency and convincing an accordion player to appear in one of the Agency's shows, White and the others find that the accordion had been stolen. As Black uses his abilities to find the thieves, a {{p|Scraggy}} and {{p|Scrafty}}, White explains to everyone else about how Black can use his {{p|Munna}} to increase his senses. After the thieves were defeated and the shooting went off without a hitch, White gives Black his [[Tep]] back and he goes off to his Gym battle. After Black leaves, the director gives White an offer to plan a campaign in [[Nimbasa City]].

Later, while Black is having his Gym battle, White and the director discuss with the mayor of Nimbasa City about what they can come up with to make the city livelier. After hearing some ideas, White nervously comes up with the idea of a [[Pokémon Musical|musical]], an idea that the mayor loved. After White returns to Black who had just defeated the Nacrene Gym, she excitedly exclaims her joy about the mayor using her idea to make Nimbasa a tourist attraction and drags him out of the Gym so they can prepare to leave.

[[File:White defeated.png|thumb|left|200px|White after losing Gigi to N]]
Afterwards, White and Black go through [[Pinwheel Forest]] where they are attacked by an unseen Pokémon that rips up their clothes. After traveling through the [[Skyarrow Bridge]], White and Black encounter the Battle Company's president disguised as janitor Geoff who tells them that the Pokémon that had attacked them was {{p|Virizion}}. After saying goodbye to Geoff, they arrive in [[Castelia City]].

After arriving in Castelia, White notices that Black's Tep is about to evolve into a {{p|Pignite}} and forcefully prevents this from happening as to prevent the Tep and Gigi duo from being broken. Although Tep did evolve during the Gym battle at the [[Castelia Gym]], White was able to come up with a new way for their performance so the new Nite and Gigi duo would not be broken up.

After leaving Castelia, White and Black arrive in {{rt|4|Unova}} but cannot progress to Nimbasa because of a powerful sandstorm. After getting some supplies to help them get out of the sandstorm, White finds an unconscious Black and an unconscious Plasma Grunt at the gateway and has Black's {{DL|Black (Adventures)|Pokémon|Brav}} carry them to Nimbasa. After explaining the situation to Black after he wakes up, she drags him to the building where the Pokémon Musical will be held. White goes and starts organizing the Musical by having the BW Agency's Pokémon do a rehearsal; her skills in organization shocks Black in the process.

After the Musical goes on, White notices how all of the people and Pokémon have come closer together and it brings a tear to her eyes. Suddenly, White is knocked by a mysterious figure and is pushed into the Nimbasa ferris wheel. As she regains her composure, White notices that the person who pushed her was in fact, N. When N asks her about why she created the Pokémon Musical, White reveals her reasons to him.

N replies that some Pokémon may like to perform but by only focusing on that part of the Pokémon, their other traits will be suppressed. In Gigi's case, N refers to her ability to battle and evolve. N then has his {{p|Servine}} attack Gigi in order to have her fight back and show just how strong she is to White. N comes to the conclusion that by focusing on Gigi's talents in performing, White had been neglecting her true strengths in battle, a fact that Gigi agrees to.

When White decides that it is time to escape, she attempts to jump off the Ferris wheel and asks Gigi to do the same. Surprisingly, Gigi goes to N's side, shocking White who falls out of the car and onto the ground below. Gigi and N watch from the car as White lies on the ground, crying because of Gigi's betrayal.

Later, White is found by [[Marshal]], one the Elite Four, who had found her lying on the ground unconscious next to the Ferris wheel. He hands White over to Black and tells him to take her to a hospital. Before doing so, Black notices that the Servine N gave to her is following them and wonders why.

White later wakes up at the hospital to find Black next to her, having fallen asleep while waiting for her to wake up. Immediately after, White notices Servine watching her from behind a veil and screams in fear. Later, White explains to Black what had happened to her when she met N at the Ferris wheel. This infuriates Black and he attempts to get information on N from Servine, who he believes to be a spy.

After Black fails, they are approached by Baker Chris who takes them to the newly made Battle Subway so they can find Marshal in order to ask for information about when he rescued White. Upon arriving, they find Marshal and the Pokémon League Champion, [[Alder]], about to battle each other. After Alder and Marshal finish their battle, White is introduced to Marshal by Black and she thanks him for helping her at the Ferris wheel.

After meeting up with the Mayor of Nimbasa City again and explaining White's situation to him, Marshal reveals that he only saw White and Servine when he found her. While Black learns about the Battle Subway, White watches Alder play with some wild Pokémon and realizes that he can connect with them, regardless of their beauty or strength. She states that she accepts Gigi's decision to join N but believes that she will return to show business one day. White then decides to take part in the Battle Subway as well.
[[File:White Battle Subway Adventures.png|thumb|200px|right|White and Black saying their goodbyes]]
Before taking part in the Battle Subway, White attempts to capture a wild {{p|Deerling}} but fails in the process. Due to her taking part in the Battle Subway, White has temporarily closed the BW Agency and needs her own Pokémon to use in battling. After angering it enough, the wild Deerling attacks White only to be stopped by the Servine that was following them.

To her surprise, the Servine listens to White when she commands it to attack. With some help from Black, White manages to capture the Deerling while he captures a {{p|Tirtouga}}. As she prepares to go onto the Subway, she has a tearful goodbye with Black as he remembers the journey they had together. As the train leaves, Black gives White Brav due to her needing three Pokémon to use in the Battle Subway.

While on the Battle Subway, White has terrible luck and is unable to win any battles. She soon meets the Elite Four member [[Shauntal]] who had snuck onto the train to find inspiration on writing a story. They are soon caught up in a battle between the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Thundurus}} and {{p|Tornadus}}. Despite Shauntal's attempts at provoking them even more to get the inspiration she wanted, the two Pokémon are calmed down and taken away by {{p|Landorus}}. After all is said and done, they board the train and head off to [[Anville Town]].

Sometime before arriving at Anville Town, White's skills at battling have significantly improved. In addition to becoming a better Trainer, she had obtained three new Pokémon: Dorothy the {{p|Stunfisk}}, Nancy the {{p|Alomomola}}, and Yunibō the {{p|Solosis}}. After doing some exploring, White meets up with Bianca, who reveals that she had become depressed because of her father's repeated pestering, preventing Bianca from becoming any stronger over the course of her journey.

To cheer her up, White takes Bianca to Café Sonata to help her get a start in the music business. However, once they enter the building, they find out that it has been ransacked by a wild {{p|Vullaby}} that had been pursuing a {{p|Meloetta}}. With Bianca and Meloetta's help, White defeats and captures the Vullaby, which she names Barbara and plans to use in villainous roles. Afterward, Bianca decides to give up her recently-repaired Pokédex to White and instead become an assistant to Professor Juniper.

Later, White returns to Black, but their happy reunion is quickly halted when they see that a battle with N and Alder had ended in N's favor. N asks if White wants him to return Gigi, or let her stay with him. White states that since she didn't care about battles, she couldn't be the judge of whether battling was good for Gigi or not; but now that she has learned about battles, it should be Gigi's choice to stay or come back, not hers or N's. N attempts to praise White for her answer, but Black angrily pulls her away from him. N attempts to leave, but a {{p|Samurott}} belonging to Cedric Juniper stops him from going away. Cedric reveals that he had come to get N to reveal the location of the kidnapped Gym Leaders, and has Black and White help battle him. They manage to win, but N escapes after Black falls unconscious when [[Musha]] decides to leave his Trainer.

During the Pokémon League, [[Brycen]] begins to investigate the [[Hood Man]] due to believing that he may have something to do with the kidnapped Gym Leaders. To help with this investigation, he enlists the help of White.

BW Agency

2013-06-26T17:05:55Z

Duke R: /* Pokémon */

[[File:BW Agency.png|thumb|240px|BW Agency]]
The '''BW Agency''' (Japanese: '''ＢＷエージェンシー''' ''BW Agency'') is a multi-media company that appears in the {{chap|Black & White}} of [[Pokémon Adventures]].

It is a company with a large supply of Pokémon actors that can be used for commercials, plays, movies, and stunts. Dialogue suggests it is a very well-respected company. Although where it is based it unknown, it has done known business in [[Accumula Town]], [[Nacrene City]], and [[Nimbasa City]]. Currently, the Agency is closed due to White taking time off to take place in the [[Battle Subway]].

==History==
The BW Agency made its first appearance when shooting a [[Xtransceiver]] advert with a bunch of {{p|Patrat}}. Whilst the president and manager {{adv|White}} is talking to a sponsor telling him that her company is the one for the job. Then the director comes over to White and says that a [[Black (Adventures)|boy]] is getting in the way of the shoot. The boy's name is Black and he is shouting out his ambitions of being the best [[Pokémon Trainer]]. Black apologizes and the director tells White to get the two {{p|Tepig}} ready for the shoot.

But there is a problem, only one female Tepig is in the box and White also needs a male. White blames it on the aide. Suddenly Black's male Tepig, [[Tep]], sees White's Tepig, [[Gigi]], and starts to play with her. This is just what White needs to save her reputation but another fatal problem arises, for some reason most of the crew have fainted and Black is accused.

To prove his innocence Black uses his {{p|Munna}}, Musha to blacken his mind and sense the real culprit. Using notes of metallic equipment, burning and the victims all placed in a circle he finds the real culprit, a {{p|Galvantula}} using its {{m|Electroweb}}. Black uses Tep to finish it off and capture it but Tep's {{m|Ember}} inadvertently burns the equipment to a crisp in the process. White charges all of the damages to the BW Agency and hires Black, which the rest of the crew and Black are not happy about. [[N]] was seen watching all of this from far away and cried over the thought of Pokémon being used by humans like this.

Later, in [[Nacrene City]], White attempts to do business by making Pokémon dance with a musician, but fails when the musician has his accordion stolen. Black is once again blamed for the mess and uses Musha to find the real culprit once again. He discovers that a {{p|Scraggy}} and {{p|Scrafty}} were the real culprits, and defeated them, clearing both his and the BW Agency's name. Afterwards, the director gives White the offer to help him think of ideas to make a campaign with Pokémon for Nimbasa City.

The director and White set up a meeting with the mayor of Nimbasa City to create a new attraction for Nimbasa. White impulsively blurts out the idea for a [[Pokémon Musical]], and while she immediately regretted it, the mayor believed it to be a brilliant idea, much to her surprise. Afterwards, White goes to Black and blissfully explains what had just happened to her, mimicking Black's tendency to get lost in his dreams.

Later, White and Black arrive in Nimbasa City after some troubles in {{rt|4|Unova}}. White drags Black to newly built Musical stadium and meets up with the other BW Agency members. White prepares the remaining stages of the musical and rehearses with some Pokémon, including Gigi.

Eventually, the musical actually begins and the Gym Leader [[Elesa]] performs the opening act. However, due to problems at the Driftveil Drawbridge, the props they needed will not able to come in on time. Determined to keep the Musical filled with guests, White decides to look on the computer and find a way to get the props there on time. After managing to find a place that can make an emergency delivery, White goes to stall the guests until the package arrives. Luckily, the Mistralton Cargo service, driven by [[Skyla]], arrives in time to deliver the package and even writes a message in the sky to enjoy the musical. Everyone is seen tearing up in joy over their success and they decide to let White go and rest for her hard work while the others clean up.

==Known members==

===Humans employed===
* {{adv|White}} (President; Manager)
* {{adv|Black}} (Representative; forced to work for White in order to pay off a large debt)
* Several unnamed members.

==Pokémon==
Due to White taking part in the Battle Subway, she has closed the Agency temporarily and has returned all of the employed Pokémon to their original Trainers.

A '''Sage''' (Japanese: '''ぼうず''' ''Monk'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Version|main series]] [[Generation II]] games. They appear to be {{wp|Bhikkhu|Buddhist monks}} who are mostly only found in [[Johto]]'s [[Sprout Tower]], [[Ecruteak Gym]] and [[Ecruteak City]].

They generally use {{p|Bellsprout}} and {{p|Hoothoot}}. The ones in Ecruteak Gym use {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Haunter}}.

Three additional Sages found exclusively in {{v2|Crystal}} are collectively called the '''Wise Trio''' (Japanese: '''３にんしゅう''' ''group of 3 men'').

In the main series Generation II games, their sprites were edited outside of Japan and Korea, presumably due to [[Nintendo]]'s policy at the time of removing all religious references in games that they published. This happened again with {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} but only in the Korean version, where the {{wp|Buddhist prayer beads|prayer beads}} were removed, the robes slightly recolored and a {{wp|Kesa (clothing)|red robe}} on their left shoulder added. Also, their title is changed from '''Monk''' (Korean: 중) to '''Ascetic''' (Korean: 수행자). This latter edit was not done for other localizations.

[[Li]], the oldest of all Sages who is found at the top of Sprout Tower, is referred to as an Elder. This has become a [[Trainer class]] of its own in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

The Sages appear at the [[Sprout Tower]] and they are named '''Chow''' (Japanese: '''モクネン''' ''Mokunen''), '''Nico''' (Japanese: '''チンネン''' ''Chinnen''), '''Edmond''' (Japanese: '''エイソウ''' ''Eisō''), '''Jin''' (Japanese: '''ソウネン''' ''Sōnen''), '''Neal''' (Japanese: '''カクネン''' ''Kakunen'') and '''Troy''' (Japanese: '''カイネン''' ''Kainen''), respectively known as '''Peaceful''', '''Mindful''', '''Faithful''', '''Careful''', '''Painful''' and '''Thoughtful''' in the [[Chuang Yi]] version. When they see {{adv|Gold}} coming to the Sprout Tower, they want to recruit him to be one of them, with the name "'''Nanyanen'''" ('''Awful''' in the Chuang Yi version). However, Gold refuses as he needs to find the {{adv|Silver|Totodile thief}} and the Sages have the {{p|Bellsprout}} attack him. The Bellsprout are able to weaken [[Aibo]] but get burnt by [[Exbo]].

Talk:Pokédex holder

2013-06-26T15:27:13Z

Duke R: /* New special skills' translations */

=Yellow=
Is Yellow officially a Pokédex holder? She isn't part of the Kanto trio - the one she had always belonged to Red. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 00:02, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Actually, once the Kanto Pokédex Holders got the "FireRed LeafGreen" versions (a.k.a. the version III Dexes) of their Pokédexes, Red gave an old one (probably his, just 'cause I'm a Specialshipper ^-^) to her. Isn't that cute? ~ HayLinLa

== Category ==

This is showing up in the uncategorized pages list, but it ''is'' categorized, though it may not look like it. As in, the categorization is there if you view the page's source. Took a quick look, don't really see anything wrong... can someone else see if they can figure it out? Thanks. --[[User:Politoed666|''P'' ''o'']] [[User talk:Politoed666|''L'' ''i'']] 18:44, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
:Okay, that threw me at first. It seems someone (don't care who) had used <code>--!></code> as the closing tag of the comment, when it should have been <code>--></code>. So it's fixed now. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 19:21, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
::I'm sorry? [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 19:26, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

==Separate==
The Sinnoh and Unova Pdx Hld are together in one text, should I separate them to become like the ones of the other Regions:
Diamond - Emotion/Pearl- Willpower/Platina- Knowledge. Black - Ideals/ White- Truth, I think the latters will become kinda confusing, what do you think?--[[User:Igor Castro Chucre|Igor ]] ([[User talk:Igor Castro Chucre|talk]]) 15:29, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
:I separated the 10 first holders in sections because each one of them obtained their Pokédexes in a different way (and the text in this article is only about how they obtained their Pokédexes). As the Sinnoh trio got them by the same means, there's no need to split them (it would be repetitive, actually). When we know what will happen to Cheren's Pokédex, I will reformulate the Unova section.
:But please, don't be stuck to this "holder's skill" thing. This was official for the first seven, only. [[User:Duke R|'''|) u |( e''']] [[User talk:Duke R|'''®''']] 15:57, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

== White ==

When did White revieve Bianca's Pokedex? [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 03:36, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

== Sinnoh dex holders ==

Platinum got her dex in a different manner than Dia and Pearl. We should seperate her from Dia and Pearl on the page. [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 20:53, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
:Why? I don't see the point of that... technically Yellow got hers at a different manner as well. Same goes for Emerald. And if you want to be really picky, same with Green and White. It's unnecessary... [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 21:07, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
I kind of meant that like how Gold Silver Crystal have seperate things because they were recieved differently, And Diamond and Pearl recieved theirs differently then Platinum, so basically the page would look like this:
===Diamond & Pearl - Emotion & Willpower===
===Platinum - Knowledge===
{{unsigned|Iml908}}

== 3 Conquerors ==

I was reading the Emerald chapter, and Sapphire mentions the whole three conquerors thing. However, she says that they are the conquerors of Contests, Gyms, and Battle Frontier, not Ribbons, Badges, and Symbols. Should this be changed? [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 23:03, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

== New special skills' translations ==

It's highly debatable what are the best translations to the special skill the other Pokédex holders received in Pokémon the Comic. Let's please discuss here what are the best words to describe their skills, before any edit war occurs. [[User:Duke R|'''|) u |( e''']] [[User talk:Duke R|'''®''']] 19:14, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

:Well, I got my translations from the pages of each Dex Holder. I was just trying to keep consistency. [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 14:25, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
::I understand. Those pages were edited by an admin, so I rather don't touch them, but the fact is that the words used in Pokémon the Comic are our only valid sources, so we should stick to those words. And since Bulbapedia does not allow us to edit an article based on another article, this doesn't seem to be a problem.

===Quotes===

====Pre-battle====
* After winning a battle
:''"<{{Player}}>, good show. {{tt|A hard-fought win, yes?|This varies depending on how many CP are received for this battle}} Lady Caitlin has instructed me to award you [[Battle Frontier (Generation IV)#Receiving CP|x]] CP."''
:''"<{{Player}}>, well done. {{tt|A quite remarkable victory it was.|This varies depending on how many CP are received for this battle}} Lady Caitlin has instructed me to award you [[Battle Frontier (Generation IV)#Receiving CP|x]] CP."''
:''"<{{Player}}>, bravo. {{tt|A fantastic victory, to be sure.|This varies depending on how many CP are received for this battle}} Lady Caitlin has instructed me to award you [[Battle Frontier (Generation IV)#Receiving CP|x]] CP."''

* After clearing seven consecutive battles
:''"Congratulations on clearing seven consecutive battles. For your valiant effort, <player>, please accept this BP. We'll return any items that we were holding for you."''

====Initial battle====
* Before battle
:''"Welcome. I am Darach, as you know, and I am the {{tc|Castle Valet}}. Lady [[Caitlin]], my employer, is not one to accept defeat willingly. However, for a reason I'm not at liberty to disclose, she cannot battle. Consequently, I will do battle in her ladyship's place. ...Let me assure you that you won't be shortchanged by facing me. En garde!"''

* When defeated
:''"My Pokémon could not be faulted in any way or form. My hat's off to you."''

* After being defeated
:''"<Player>, you are truly in possession of a superlative talent! I drew on every reserve of experience and etiquette handed down through our heritage of glorious servitude. But even then, I failed To fend off your inspired and inspiring challenge. I shall see to appeasing Lady Caitlin's displeasure at my loss. <Player>, please do return to our [[Battle Castle]]. We will be delighted and honored to have you back!"''

====Rematch====
* Before battle
:''"Your mastery of Pokémon is as breathtaking as ever. <Player>, you certainly are to be commended. ...However, if I may say so, I noticed something about the way you battle. After all, I have the opportunity to watch you closely firsthand. So, what is it that I noticed? As a Trainer myself, it is but proper etiquette to show you in a battle. Let us begin! En garde!"''

* When defeated
:''"Your skills are superlative as ever! My admiration knows no bounds."''

* After being defeated
:''"I am humbled... What I'd perceived to be a weakness was only illusory... Or, perhaps you corrected it in the course of our battle. Regardless, your performance was stunning again. Though she cannot say it, Lady Caitlin appears quite taken by your style. For her sake at the very least, please do return to our Battle Castle!"''

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Darach Adventures.png|thumb|right|250px|Darach as he appears in Pokémon Adventures]]
Darach appeared alongside Lady [[Caitlin]] in the {{chap|Platinum}} of ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]''. Darach first appeared when {{adv|Platinum}} started her challenge of the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation IV)|Battle Castle}} and was in charge of giving her Castle Points while Caitlin watched the battles. Once Platinum manages to win enough battles to face the Frontier Brain, [[Looker]] is shocked to find out that Darach is in fact, the Battle Castle Frontier Brain instead of Caitlin; Darach and Platinum then begin their battle.

In battle, Darach seems to have a different personality, this is shown when he drops his calm demeanor and starts laughing manically while confidently stating that he will win the battle. Despite the power his Pokémon possessed, Darach is eventually defeated once Platinum learns to manage money properly to find out his weaknesses.

==Trivia==
* Despite their in-game sprite showing them both together, he and Caitlin do not participate in a [[Double Battle]]. This situation is much like the {{tc|Twins}} of the [[Generation II]] games, and [[Jessie]] and [[James]] in {{game|Yellow}}.
** However, Double Battles had not yet been introduced in those games at the time.
* Darach is the only Generation IV Frontier Brain with a signature Pokémon; his Empoleon.
* A minor character in the Battle Castle says, ''"Mr. Darach...His feelings for Lady Caitlin are all bottled up...Oh, how I pine for him..."'', which implies that Darach has feelings for Caitlin, but refuses to show these emotions to her.
* Darach's in-battle sprite has the most frames of any animated sprite in Generation IV, with five as opposed to the usual three.
* While he does not appear in [[Generation V]], he is referenced by Caitlin in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. She reveals that Darach travels all the way to Unova to clean her villa in [[Undella Town]] before returning home.

Talk:Friend Code

2013-06-26T14:16:29Z

Duke R:

The Pal Pad is the device into which you register codes of other players.
When in that device, however, it asks you for a "Friend Code".
On the Nintendo 3DS, there is a feature - SEPARATE FROM POKEMON - called Friend Codes. These are not compatible with the codes within the game - that is, when one of the 3DS friend codes are entered into the pal pad, an error is generated saying that it is a wrong Friend code.

However, if you enter the 3DS code into its address book (what is its name?), the user is registered, and appears to be seen within Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 - perhaps other games.

This is confusing.{{unsigned|Lvirden}}
:First, sign your comments with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). Second, if you want to mention that the 3DS also has a function called Friend Code, go ahead. But when the Pal Pad says it is a wrong Friend Code, it's not an error, it's just that those FC's are different things. Generation V games are somehow ready for 3DS features, for instance, when you choose "Nintendo WFC settings" in the main menu it says you can use 3DS's settings instead, but that doesn't mean the in-game codes are the same as the 3DS ones.

Pokédex holder

2013-06-26T12:34:49Z

Duke R: Undo revision 1924763 by Iml908 (talk) The words you used to translate do not match with the Japanese words found in Pokémon the Comic. I made a topic for this discussion in the talk page.

[[File:Emerald chapter.png|thumb|right|300px|The Pokédex holders and their main Pokémon as of the {{chap|Emerald}}]]
'''Pokédex holder''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン図鑑所有者''', ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia owner''), known as '''Pokédex owner''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, is the term used by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}} to describe a {{pkmn|Trainer}} that has been given a [[Pokédex]]. These Trainers are often very gifted in one particular area, dubbed each's "special skill" by Professor Oak to the ones who received a Pokédex from him. These Trainers all have [[starter Pokémon]] from their regional [[Pokémon Professor]]s, though most already owned or trained Pokémon prior to receiving them.

The Pokédex holders have become a very tight knit group with many of them bonding with their cohorts in their regional adventures and later with their seniors and juniors. In the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} the holders from [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] grouped to fight the [[Masked Man]]. During the {{chap|Emerald}}, the 10 first Pokédex holders reunited at the [[Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Frontier]] to fight against [[Guile Hideout]].

==Kanto Pokédex holders==
[[File:Red Blue Green Yellow Adventures.png|250px|thumb|right|Red, Yellow, Green and Blue]]
===Red - the Fighter===
{{main|Red (Adventures)}}
Red received his Pokédex from Professor Oak after an incident in which all the Pokémon from his [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|Laboratory]] were released. One of the Pokémon that escaped was a [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] that was refusing to be caught and hid inside the [[Viridian Gym]]. When Red went inside the Gym, a {{p|Machoke}} attacked. Red managed to use the few sunlight coming from a window to order Bulbasaur's {{m|SolarBeam}} and defeat the foe. Professor Oak watched what happened and, amazed by his battling skills, gave him the Bulbasaur and a Pokédex. During the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen|fifth chapter}}, Red, along with Green and Blue, got upgraded Pokédexes. His old Pokédex was the only one not destroyed, and was given to Yellow.

Red won the [[Pokémon League]] and became a {{pkmn|Champion}}. He is able to precisely take quick decisions during a {{pkmn|battle}}, turning the movements of opponents against themselves. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Fighter''' (Japanese: '''戦う者''' ''Fighter'').

===Blue - the Trainer===
{{main|Blue (Adventures)}}
Blue Oak is the grandson of Professor Oak and was the first to receive a Pokédex. His Pokédex was first seen in [[Viridian Forest]], where Blue was seen using it to gather data on the Pokémon he was catching. During a battle against a {{p|Kangaskhan}}, he pulled his Pokédex and noticed that Red was also given one by his grandfather. Much to his disdain, as he knew someone also received a Pokédex, but not a Trainer like Red. In the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, his Pokédex got destroyed along with Green's, but was later replaced by an upgraded Pokédex.

Through tough {{pkmn|training}}, Blue increases the [[level]] of his Pokémon, making them apt to dispute in battles against the best Trainers, even using the ones he raised from scratch. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Trainer''' (Japanese: '''育てる者''' ''Trainer'').

===Green - the Evolver===
{{main|Green (Adventures)}}
The first time Green went in Professor Oak's Laboratory was when she stole his [[Blasty|Squirtle]]. Later, at the Pokémon League semi-finals, Green had a battle against Dr. O, who used a team of bird Pokémon, knowing the ornithophobia she acquired after being kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh|a bird Pokémon}} at the age of five. After being defeated by him, his true identity was revealed to be Professor Oak himself, who already knew of her coming from the beginning and had let her steal his Pokémon since it was already intended to be hers. Then, he handed over her own Pokédex. During the fifth chapter, she, Red, and Blue received upgraded Pokédexes. However, her old one was destroyed along with Blue's.

During the time she was kidnapped, Green was prepared to develop her knowledge on Pokémon [[evolution]], having won important battles with the appropriate use of [[evolutionary stone]]s. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''Evolver''' (Japanese: '''化える者''' ''Evolver'').

===Yellow - the Healer===
{{main|Yellow (Adventures)}}
Yellow showed up in Professor Oak's Lab after seeing a hurt [[Pika]] to find out Red's whereabouts. The Professor refused to let Yellow go with Pika and attacked with his {{p|Spearow}}, to what {{adv|Yellow|Dody}} countered in a way that neither Pokémon was hurt in the end. Impressed by the connection with Pokémon and their instinct in trusting Yellow, the Professor decided that he should also trust Yellow and gave Red's Pokédex to Yellow to deliver to him. By the end of the fifth chapter, Red, Blue and Green had received upgraded Pokédexes. Since Blue's and Green's were destroyed by {{adv|Deoxys}}, Red's Pokédex was the only one still working; Red gave this Pokédex to Yellow while she was unconscious.

As a native of Viridian Forest, Yellow has special abilities such as [[Viridian Forest#In the Pokémon Adventures manga|healing with a touch]]. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''Healer''' (Japanese: '''癒やす者''' ''Healer'').

==Johto Pokédex holders==
[[File:Gold Silver Crystal HGSS Adventures.png|thumb|right|Crystal, Gold and Silver]]
===Gold - the Hatcher===
{{main|Gold (Adventures)}}

When Professor Oak told how the Pokédex can be used in battle, Gold asked for one. The Professor said that Pokédexes are meant for research purposes, and the ones he trusted the device were responsible young people who were willing to help others with their strengths, unlike Gold that only cares about his goal and would reduce it to a tool in battle. After much insistence, the Professor asked how Gold sees his Pokémon, to what the boy replied that they are his "partners". For the good answer, the Pokédex was given to him. During the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver|ninth chapter}}, Gold received an upgraded Pokédex.

Gold's ability as a Pokédex holder was the last to be revealed in the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. While he desperately wondered what was his specialty, the Egg he was holding hatched given his {{pkmn|breeding#Hatching eggs|will to protect it}}. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''{{tt|Hatcher|Breeder in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''孵す者''' ''Hatcher'').

===Silver - the Exchanger===
{{main|Silver (Adventures)}}

Silver's Pokédex was first seen during his battle against Gold and then used against {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Later in the story, Professor Oak explained that it was stolen from his 2nd Research Center in [[Cherrygrove City]], the same way that Silver stole the [[Silver's Feraligatr|Totodile]] from [[Professor Elm]]'s Lab in [[New Bark Town]]. He guessed that Silver was the thief after hearing from Green about the time she and he were under the [[Masked Man]]'s control. During the ''HeartGold & SoulSilver'' chapter, Silver received an upgraded Pokédex.

During the time he was kidnapped, Silver was prepared to develop his knowledge on Pokémon [[trade]]s, with many of the Pokémon in his team obtained or evolved through trades. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Exchanger''' (Japanese: '''換える者''' ''Exchanger'').

===Crystal - the Catcher===
{{main|Crystal (Adventures)}}

While Professor Oak was looking for a reliable Trainer to collect Pokémon data for him, he got information from {{adv|Bill}} that there was a catcher who would do it for something in return. When the Professor went to [[Earl Dervish]]'s [[Pokémon academy]] for the meeting, a bunch of {{p|Slugma}} attacked a little girl. To protect her, a girl named Crystal used her Pokémon and [[Poké Ball#Level Ball|special Poké Balls]] to catch them all. Amazed by her catching skills, he gave her a Pokédex and, in return, repaired the old academy. During the ninth chapter, Crystal received an upgraded Pokédex.

Crystal is the only holder that actually attempts to fill the Pokédex with data, and went through special training since she was very young, having [[caught Pokémon]] by hundreds. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''{{tt|Catcher|Capturer in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''捕える者''' ''Capturer'').

==Hoenn Pokédex holders==
[[File:PS325.png|200px|thumb|right|Sapphire, Emerald and Ruby]]
===Ruby - Charm===
{{main|Ruby (Adventures)}}

Ruby accidentally kept the Pokédex that [[Professor Birch]] had for his fieldwork to help him defeat the two {{p|Mightyena}} that were attacking him. When Ruby was going to retrieve the Professor's bag, his [[Running Shoes]] activated and he fell from a cliff, being saved and taken to a cave by Sapphire. Ruby left her with a letter, telling her to return her father's goods, but forgot the Pokédex in his pocket. In [[Oldale Town]], when he was attacked by a {{p|Dustox}}, the Pokédex resonated and once again helped Ruby to defeat the Pokémon. He decided to keep it so that he could escape in time from the new Pokémon he would meet.

Whether obtaining {{pkmn|Contest}} {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Hoenn Contest Ribbons|Ribbons}} or fighting against enemies, Ruby always prioritizes '''charm''' (Japanese: '''魅せる''') in his actions, this being his special skill.

===Sapphire - Quest===
{{main|Sapphire (Adventures)}}

Sapphire Birch is Professor Birch's daughter. While she was doing fieldwork, Sapphire saw Ruby falling down from a cliff and got him by swinging on hanging vines. She took him to her [[secret base]], where they started a scuffle over their different views on Pokémon. In the middle of their battle, a {{p|Seviper}} appeared and attacked them. In order to defeat it, she used a Pokédex to get data about the Pokémon. She explained to Ruby that she was keeping it to help her father in his researches. When her quest on challenging all [[Gym]]s in [[Hoenn]] started, Sapphire took the Pokédex with her.

Sapphire accomplished the feat of obtaining all 8 {{DL|Badge|Hoenn League|Gym Badges}} in 80 days. Her special skill consists of always mastering whatever she '''quests for''' (Japanese: '''究める''').

===Emerald - Calm===
{{main|Emerald (Adventures)}}

Emerald was recommended by the [[Trick Master]] to live in Earl Dervish's Pokémon academy, to overcome the bullying he suffered, which made him reluctant to interact with other children and with Pokémon. When Emerald arrived at the academy, he was impressed by Crystal's dedication for others, working hard to fulfill the Pokédex for Professor Oak to get repairs in the building and new clothes for the homeless children in return. He then decided to ask for a Pokédex so that he could also help others. In the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], Emerald called the Professor with a message saying that he wanted a Pokédex so that he could live together with Pokémon. Yet, Professor Oak registered Emerald as the owner of the Pokédex but didn't give it to him, saying that he lied about wanting to be with Pokémon, since Earl declared that he avoids any contact with them. Only when Emerald found his own path in relating with Pokémon, the Professor accepted to give him the Pokédex. He then had to head to Hoenn, where his Pokédex was with Professor Birch.

One of the {{DL|Emerald (Adventures)|gadgets}} used by Emerald shoots dirt from a Pokémon's birthplace around it, acting similar to a [[Capture Styler]]. This method defines Emerald's special skill to '''calm''' (Japanese: '''鎮める''') rampant Pokémon down.

==Sinnoh Pokédex holders==
[[File:Diamond Pearl Platinum Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|Pearl, Platinum and Diamond]]
As a member of nobility, {{adv|Platinum|Lady Berlitz}} must meet the tradition of making an artifact from materials found on the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]], as the other heirs of her family. For the journey, [[Professor Rowan]] gave her a suitcase with three Pokédexes, [[Pokétch]]es and the three Sinnoh starters to be used by the Lady and the two bodyguards hired by her father, that she was supposed to meet in front of [[Jubilife Condominiums]].

'''{{adv|Diamond}}''' and '''{{adv|Pearl}}''' are childhood friends from [[Twinleaf Town]] that aim to become masters of comedy. They took part in a contest held by [[Jubilife TV]] that would reward the best stand-up comedians, but failed in their performance. However, they received a special prize for their peculiar humor, tickets for a travel. Before opening the envelope with the tickets, they bumped against Professor Rowan and his assistant (Lady Berlitz's father) in the middle of a crowd and ended up having their envelope exchanged with the one containing instructions for the Lady's bodyguards on their travel to Mt. Coronet. Arriving at the meeting point, they assumed she was a tour guide for their trip, while she thought they were her bodyguards, giving each a Pokémon, a Pokétch and a Pokédex. The trio traveled around [[Sinnoh]] until the misunderstanding was clarified, when she decided to reveal her first name, '''{{adv|Platinum}}'''.

Their special skills match the [[lake guardians]] they have bonded with. Diamond is guided by the {{p|Mesprit|emotion}} he '''feels''' (Japanese: '''感じる'''), Pearl is full of {{p|Azelf|willpower}} on whatever he '''intends''' (Japanese: '''志す''') to do, and Platinum '''knows''' (Japanese: '''知る''') about various subjects due to the outstanding {{p|Uxie|knowledge}} she is imbued with.

==Unova Pokédex holders==
[[File:Black White Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|White and Black]]
===Black - Dream===
{{main|Black (Adventures)}}

[[Professor Juniper]] sent a package with three Pokédexes and three Pokémon to Black, {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}}. The box was supposed to be delivered at Black's house, but he was so eager to receive it that waited all night outside the Juniper Pokémon Lab. When the deliveryman gave the package to him, he opened it to choose his starter before his friends. But as it rained the day before, Black was drenched and sneezed on the box, releasing the three Pokémon and letting two of the Pokédexes fall on a pond. He went after [[Buoh|one of the Pokémon]] that escaped and started his adventure, leaving Cheren and Bianca behind with two broken Pokédexes.

Since his childhood, Black is devoted to his objective of winning the [[Unova League]] to become the Champion. His dedication to the '''dream''' (Japanese: '''夢みる''') he follows is his special skill.

===White===
{{main|White (Adventures)}}

During Black's journey, he ended up working for White, the president of the [[BW Agency]]. She managed Pokémon actors for movies but had never trained a single Pokémon before. Later on, White learned the qualifications of a Pokémon Trainer from the very beginning, such as catching, battling and evolving. When she already had a full team of six Pokémon, Bianca gave White her Pokédex and she became a Pokédex holder.

==Former Pokédex holders==
===Wally===
{{main|Wally (Adventures)}}

Wally found Professor Birch's bag adrift in the sea during the flood caused by {{p|Kyogre}}'s rampage. Inside the bag was a Pokédex and a [[Emerald's Sceptile|Treecko]]. Wally temporarily used the Pokédex and the Pokémon when he was helping [[Norman]] to awaken {{p|Rayquaza}} in the [[Sky Pillar]]. After the cataclysmic battle between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}} ceased, Wally sent the Pokédex back to Professor Birch, who gave it to its registered owner, Emerald.

In the magazine releases of Pokémon Adventures, there was a scene in which Wally was registered as owner of the Pokédex he found. This scene did not appear in the volume releases, turning him into a mere user of Emerald's Pokédex.

===Bianca===
{{main|Bianca (Adventures)}}

Bianca, along with Cheren and Black, was chosen by Professor Juniper to fill the Pokédex with data. Even though Black made her Pokédex unusable, Bianca left on her journey, sometimes meeting with Cheren, Black and/or White. When her Pokédex was fixed, Bianca decided to give it to White.

===Cheren===
{{main|Cheren (Adventures)}}

Although Cheren was chosen by Professor Juniper to have a Pokédex, Team Plasma's actions made him see the device as an excuse to trap Pokémon in Poké Balls, and that the strength he pursues could be achieved without it. Cheren then decided to be not a Pokédex holder any longer.

==Others==
Throughout the series, some characters had relevant association with the usage of Pokédexes, though they do not belong to the Pokédex holders group.
* Professor Birch was using Emerald's Pokédex before it was lost and later found by Wally.
* Before the Pokédex was upgraded in the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, [[Carr]] duplicated Red's into a "black Pokédex". It was seen being held by {{adv|Giovanni}} and by [[the Three Beasts]].
* [[Paka and Uji]] would have been Pokédex holders if the mixup with Professor Rowan and Professor Berlitz with Diamond and Pearl did not happen.

==Trivia==
* All current Pokédex holders are named after the [[Version|main series]] games. 
* Every Pokédex holder named after an English [[Version|third version]] is known by another name. Yellow is also called Amarillo del Bosque Verde, Crystal's nickname is Crys, Emerald is called Rald by {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}, and Platinum was previously known as Lady Berlitz.

'''Zinzolin''' (Japanese: '''ヴィオ''' ''Vio'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

==In the games==
{{spoilers}}
[[File:Team Plasma B2W2 opening.png|thumb|220px|Zinzolin alongside two {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt|Plasma Grunts}} and a [[Shadow Triad|Shadow]] in the opening of {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}.]]
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, Zinzolin first appears in the [[Cold Storage]] with other {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s, who were planning something. During that time, he had complained about the cold and when the player and [[Cheren]] appeared, he ordered the grunts to drive them away. When they failed, [[Clay]] and several {{tc|Worker}}s arrived and arrested him and the Grunts. Later, in [[Driftveil City]], [[Ghetsis]] came and forced Clay to release them. At [[N's Castle]], he and the other [[Seven Sages|sages]] (except Ghetsis) appeared to block the player's way to [[N]]. However, he and the other sages were confronted by the [[Gym Leader]]s of the [[Unova League]] (except [[Cilan]], [[Chili]] and [[Cress]]), who held up the sages to allow the player to pass.

After defeating [[Ghetsis]], Zinzolin can be found at the Cold Storage. He remarks on how odd the player is and tells the player about his thoughts, then gives the player {{TM|01|Hone Claws}}. When [[Looker]] arrives to arrest him, he goes willingly.

Zinzolin reappears as a major antagonist in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]. He has joined the new Team Plasma formed by Ghetsis and now acts as one of the group's public leaders, along with [[Colress]]. Though he appears several times, usually when the {{player}} has major confrontations with Team Plasma, Zinzolin is not fought until the player reaches [[Lacunosa Town]]. He confronts the player after Team Plasma uses the [[Plasma Frigate]] and {{p|Kyurem}} to freeze [[Opelucid City]]. He is also seen in the [[Giant Chasm]] leading Ghetsis's forces against [[Rood]] and several members of the original Team Plasma opposing them.

After the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]] and defeats [[Hugh]] in [[Undella Town]], Zinzolin appears there, dressed in new set of robes. He expresses remorse for his actions and gives the player books of Ghetsis's research that allow translation of the messages in the [[Abyssal Ruins]]. He will give the player a [[Big Pearl]] upon returning from the end of the Abyssal Ruins, and depart.

===Quotes===
====Pokémon Black and White====
=====At the Cold Storage=====
:''"All of you--huddle around me! I can't take this cold..."''
:''"Pokémon are our king's friends. While we're taking care of them, we can't let any harm come to them here. Everyone, drive these intruders away!"''

=====At Driftveil City=====
:''"Ghetsis... Thank you very much..."''

=====At N's Castle=====
:''"There are not two suns in the sky, nor two sovereigns over the people."''
:''"It is the way of the universe to take from excess and fill emptiness. Taking Pokémon from people is restoring balance to nature!"''

=====At the Cold Storage=====
:''"So, you returned? You're an odd Trainer. All right. I've got time enough to satisfy your curiosity."''
:''"...Breathing. Having a heart that beats. That is simple existence and nothing more for a living being. That may be the definition of living, but I don't think that defines life."''
:''"The experiences of joy and suffering are a vital part of being alive. Ghetsis gave me the sensation of being truly alive... What did he mean to accomplish? That isn't what's important."''
:''"Right now, I'm shivering. I'm suffering, but I'm alive."''
:''"Pokémon and people live by being together and relying on one another. That might be how you feel. If that's so, is it necessary to separate people and Pokémon? By talking to you, I've discovered that there's much I need to think about... I wish I had more to give you in thanks... Here, take [[TM01|this]]."''
:''"My lord N said that he wanted to make Pokémon perfect... But, even if the relationship between Pokémon and people stayed as it now is, Pokémon can aspire to perfection..."''
:''"It's too cold and I'm already tired of shivering in here. If you'll give me some time to think, I'll tell you what I know. So...take me with you."''

====Pokémon Black 2 and White 2====
{{incomplete|section|Missing post-game Undella Town quotes}} 
=====[[Plasma Frigate]] – [[Pokémon World Tournament|PWT]]=====
: ''"What is going on?"''
: ''"YOU! Once again, we will use the [[legendary Pokémon|legendary]] {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon and we will rule the Unova region! Curious Trainers, we shall not let you run around as you please!"''
: ''"[[Shadow Triad]]! Get them out of here!"''
: ''"I know! But kick them out of here now!"''

=====[[Lacunosa Town]]=====
* Before battle
: ''"Oh, for crying out loud… This is troublesome indeed, my curious Trainers. Perhaps I should satiate your curiosity somewhat. The reason I am still part of Team Plasma is this: I want to know how the world will change. Listen. Pokémon are nature. [[Poké Ball]]s are civilization. Humans who are used to civilization don't relinquish it easily. Of course, both nature and civilization are important. But what will happen to a world taken over by Team Plasma? People will be forced to throw out Poké Balls--a product of civilization. I want to know what that looks like! And I want to enjoy it!"''

* When defeated
: ''"That pressure I felt from you just now… What was that?!"''

* After being defeated
: ''"These Trainers remind me of that one from two years ago. More important, we must continue our search. Like that scientist said, it might be in [[Opelucid City]]! We'll play with you again later!"''

=====[[Opelucid City]]=====
: ''"I don't think that's going to work."''
: ''"It's bitter cold. I'm shivering. I'm suffering, but I'm alive! It's what the essence of life feels like! It's proof of my existence! But that's enough of philosophy. Here are the facts for your admiration: This ice was specially created by Team Plasma's technology. As long as we have our secret weapon, you'll never be able to melt or break this ice! Let me explain our purpose here. [[Drayden]], hand over the {{key|V|DNA Splicers}}! Opelucid City is a city where the past and the future are entwined. Could there be a more perfect place for the splicers that connect the separated Pokémon?"''
: ''"Humph. That's what I thought you'd say. At this point, I'd like to threaten you with another volley of ice, but we can't use it for a moment… Sigh. It won't be enjoyable in this cold, but I guess we'll just search for them."''

=====In front of the [[Opelucid Gym]]=====
* Before battle
: ''"Oh, for crying out loud… I didn't expect to have to fight hampered by cold like this. Well, no matter! The fact that I'm shivering means I'm truly alive!"''

* When defeated
: ''"Have you gotten even stronger than you were in Lacunosa Town? How, in such a brief amount of time…"''

* After being defeated
: ''"You're a strong Trainer. You definitely are adept at handling Pokémon. I believe I'll take my leave, simply because I can't stand this cold. But…imagine this… A Unova region…completely…covered…in…ice. To achieve that splendor, we'll do whatever it takes to obtain the DNA Splicers."''

=====Plasma Frigate – {{rt|21|Unova}}=====
* Before battle
: ''"You're an impressive Trainer to have made it this far. Since you went to such trouble to come here, I'll show you something. This is… '''The [[legendary Pokémon]] of ice! Its name is {{p|Kyurem}}!'''"''
: ''"The ice missiles we fired into Opelucid City were created with Kyurem's power and Team Plasma's technology! Well… You could become a threat to Team Plasma, so we will eliminate you here!"''
: ''"Hmph! We'll simply eliminate both of you!"''

* When defeated
: ''"The longer you live, the more opportunities for failure."''

* After being defeated
: ''"Hmph. You're a smarter Trainer than I expected. If you've got that much sense, why did you do something as dangerous as sneaking into our base?"''
: ''"If it's just a {{p|Purrloin}}, someone probably stole it and is using it. Why can't you understand? There are other Purrloin. Why are you so fixated on this one?"''
: ''"An individual's feelings… To you, that's probably a matter of great importance. But from the perspective of other people, it is a trifling matter indeed. Compare those feelings against the majesty of this ship! This ship itself is a device that uses the Pokémon Kyurem's power! With this ship, this time we will conquer Unova! It looks like Kyurem has fully recovered. We'll put the DNA Splicers to good use. I'll let you take care of them, Shadow Triad!"''

=====Plasma Frigate – [[Giant Chasm]]=====
* Before battle
: ''"The device is indestructible! You will never be able to release Kyurem! You don't have the sense to know when to quit, it seems. It's an act of mercy on my part to bring this to an end now!"''

* When defeated
: ''"It is the same for anyone… As long as you are dreaming, the dream will never reveal itself to you."''

* After being defeated
: ''"Beaten again?! No matter! Team Plasma will get the last laugh!"''

=====Undella Town=====
*After defeating [[Hugh]]
: ''"Mmm, it's so warm here. Let me get to the point. I have papers that [[Ghetsis|Lord Ghetsis]] left behind. With these, you can read the ancient scripts in the [[Abyssal Ruins]]. As my own small, little way to atone for my sins, I'll read them to you!(<player> is now able to read the Abyssal Ruins script!). Just to make sure you know, you reach the Abyssal Ruins by using {{m|Dive}} in [[Undella Bay]]. And you must write down the ciphers you find in the Abyssal Ruins yourself."
*After reaching innermost chamber of Abyssal Ruins
: ''"What?! You made it even further, you say? And what kind of ciphers were there? … … Ahem… Oh, yes, now I see. There are some characters I can't recognize, but based on the context… An extremely wonderful king was laid to rest in those ruins. If that king has descendants, maybe those special powers were passed down…"''
: ''"Now that I've learned everything I wanted to know about the Abyssal Ruins, I take my leave. You are my enemy, but your accomplishments and skill make you a worthwhile enemy. Adieu!"''

[[File:Zinzolin Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Zinzolin in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
[[File:Zinzolin Gray Adventures.png|thumb|left|175px|Zinzolin disguised as Gray]]
Three years prior to the start of the {{chap|Black & White}}, Zinzolin was recruited by Ghetsis as a member of the Seven Sages. When Gorm was given the task on finding information on the legendary Dragon Pokémon, an annoyed Zinzolin stated that he should have been given the task, as he had already gathered information on them. Before he could speak any further, he was silenced by Ghetsis.

Zinzolin first appears in ''[[PS467|Letting Go]]'' along with the other sages. In ''[[ABW31|Fight in a Cold Climate]]'', Zinzolin appeared at the [[Cold Storage]] after {{adv|Black}} and {{adv|Cheren}} had defeated two Team Plasma Grunts. He praises the Trainers for their strength and disappears with the help of an ice mirror.

Later, Zinzolin appears as a participant in the Unova Pokémon League. There, he disguises himself in his game counterpart's Black 2 and White 2 clothing sans Team Plasma logo and wears a visor over his eyes. Going by the fake name Gray (Japanese: '''グレイ'''), Zinzolin makes it to the top 8 and is set against [[Iris]] as his opponent in the quarterfinals. While battling, he is seen as maniacal about the cold, and uses one of his {{p|Cryogonal}}'s techniques to trap Iris's {{p|Fraxure}} in ice chains. However, Iris is able to counter this move through her training with [[Brycen]] and eventually defeats Zinzolin.

Later, Zinzolin talks to Hood Man about how the cold heart of a Trainer can bring out the strength in a Pokémon. It is revealed that after the events at the Cold Storage, Cheren decided to return to the area to see how Team Plasma truly was. There, he encountered Zinzolin, who managed to instill Team Plasma's ideals into Cheren's head and made him pursue power. {{adv|White}} overhears their conversation, but is quickly spotted by Cryogonal and is strangled. Zinzolin then reveals his true identity to White, which causes [[Looker]] to leap into action and use the Super Hard Tight Tape to bind Zinzolin and his Cryogonal together.

Cryogonal's only known move is {{m|Ice Beam}}.}}

==Trivia==
* In Black and White, Zinzolin quotes a proverb from ''{{wp|Mencius (book)|Mencius}}'' and a line from ''{{wp|Tao Te Ching}}'' at N's Castle.
* Zinzolin can be seen as Rood's parallel in that Zinzolin is a sage who decided to join the sect that remains loyal to Ghetsis while Rood joins the other sect that is loyal to N.

'''Bronius''' (Japanese: '''スムラ''' ''Sumra'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

==In the games==
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, Bronius is encountered along with [[Ghetsis]], [[Rood]] and several {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s at Team Plasma's hideout in [[Castelia City]]. He leaves the building shortly after the arrival of the {{player}}. He later appears with all the other sages (except Ghetsis) at [[N's Castle]], blocking the player's way to [[N]]. However, the [[Unova]] [[Gym Leader]]s appear and clear the way to N. After Ghetsis has been defeated, Bronius can be found in [[Chargestone Cave]], where he gives the player {{TM|69|Rock Polish}} and is arrested by [[Looker]].

Bronius does not appear in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}.

:''"The Pokémon of our Team Plasma are also fighting for their Trainers. It was so obvious that I overlooked it... Thank you for reminding me of that. Here, I'd like you to take [[TM69|this]]."''
:''"Pokémon do their best for their Trainers even when they are injured. I wonder whether my lord N understands what that means?"''

'''Gorm''' (Japanese: '''アスラ''' ''Azula'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

==In the games==
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, Gorm is first met in [[Pinwheel Forest]]. He appears right after the {{player}} has defeated the {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s and says that the {{key|V|Dragon Skull}} is not important to Team Plasma's goals. Later, he is seen along with the other sages confronting the [[Gym Leader]]s of the [[Unova]] [[region]] at [[N's Castle]]. After Ghetsis has been defeated, Gorm can be found in the [[Dreamyard]], where he gives the player {{TM|75|Swords Dance}} and is arrested by [[Looker]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Gorm appears in Pinwheel Forest while the player and [[Cheren]] are investigating there. He tries to sneak up on them much like he did to {{ga|Hilbert}}/{{ga|Hilda}} in Black and White in the Dreamyard. He speaks to the two briefly and leaves. Cheren follows him.

:''"How are you holding up, fellow subject of our king?"''
:''"It's not important. We can afford to abandon the Dragon Skull. According to the results of our research, this is not the [[legendary Pokémon]] for which Team Plasma is looking. It is completely unrelated. But we will not allow anyone to disrupt our plans and get away with it. We will fix it so you never interfere with us again."''
:''"I am one of the Seven Sages of Team Plasma. [[Ghetsis]], another of the Seven Sages, will liberate Pokémon with words alone! The remainder of the Seven Sages have ordered their compatriots to take Pokémon with full force! But the odds are a little against us now. To you, the {{t|Bug}} Pokémon user [[Burgh]] and the {{t|Normal}} Pokémon user [[Lenora]], I say... Know your enemies, know yourself, and know you need not fear the result of a hundred battles... This time, we shall retreat quietly. To secure the liberation of Pokémon we will steal from Trainers! Even though you are [[Gym Leader]]s, we will not tolerate any further obstruction from you. In any case, we will settle this someday. I hope you are looking forward to that time as much as I..."''

:''"If you surprise them, both Pokémon and people leave themselves open. While they're in a state of surprise, they can't use their powers like they normally would. Our intention was to surprise people by making our castle appear and showing off the legendary Pokémon... At that moment, we planned to deeply impress people's hearts with the awesome power of Team Plasma and the brilliance of our new world."''
:''"Now that I've seen the strength of spirit in you and the [[Gym Leader]]s, I wonder how effective that strategy would have been, after all.

Excuse me, but that's not important. I learned of my [[Zinzolin|old ally]]'s recklessness, and I had come here to admonish him... But the matter has already been resolved, and this place made me think... What did we believe in that made us try to steal the {{key|V|Dragon Skull}}? A man who has committed a mistake and doesn't correct it is commiting another mistake. Do you understand what this means? Avoiding all mistakes is impossible, but not fixing mistakes you've made -- that is truly foolish. That being said, this doesn't really concern you, does it? Well then, Trainers, may you and your Pokémon be well."''

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[ABW15|The Mystery of the Missing Fossil]]'', {{adv|Black}} was investigating the disappearance of a {{key|V|Dragon Skull|Dragon Fossil}} from {{DL|Nacrene City|Nacrene Museum}}. He found the skeleton in Pinwheel Forest, where the thieves were lurking, three Grunts who met him at Dreamyard and Gorm. The sage was impressed by Black's skill on finding their location and, seeing his potential, commanded the skeleton to attack the boy. Given its fast and accurate move, Black was able to identify the controlling Pokémon and defeated it with the help of [[Burgh]]'s {{p|Whirlipede}}. Before escaping with the Grunts, Gorm revealed that Team Plasma is seeking for a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon to fight by their side.

'''Rood''' (Japanese: '''ロット''' ''Rot'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

==In the games==
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, Rood is encountered along with [[Ghetsis]], [[Bronius]] and several {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s at Team Plasma's hideout in [[Castelia City]]. He leaves the building shortly after the arrival of the {{player}}. He later appears with all the other sages at [[N's Castle]], blocking the player's way to [[N]]. However, the [[Unova]] [[Gym Leader]]s appear and clear the way to N. After Ghetsis has been defeated, Rood can be found on {{rt|18|Unova}}, where he gives the player {{TM|32|Double Team}} and is arrested by [[Looker]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Rood is encountered living with [[Anthea and Concordia|Anthea, Concordia]] and several Grunts in the original Team Plasma's safehouse in [[Driftveil City]]. After losing in a battle with the player, he gives the player [[N's Pokémon|N's]] {{p|Zorua}}. Shortly afterwards, he appears on {{rt|6|Unova}} after the player has encountered {{p|Cobalion}}. Later, he appears leading the members of the original Team Plasma against Ghetsis's new Team Plasma at the [[Giant Chasm]], occupying their forces to allow the player to reach Ghetsis himself.

===Quotes===
====Pokémon Black and White====
'''[[Castelia City]]'''
: ''"What is it?"''

'''[[N's Castle]]'''
: ''"Superior men understand what is right. Inferior men understand what will sell."''
: ''"Constant dripping wears away the stone. I've been waiting in the abyss for this day. No one shall interfere!"''

'''{{rt|18|Unova}}'''
: ''"It smells of the sea here. This place has the same ocean smell as where I was born…"''
: ''"Ghetsis wandered the lands of this world all over, collecting knowledge of all kinds while searching for like-minded people. From the moment we met, he understood what I desired."''
: ''"The ability to understand the minds and the needs of others… This is an ability that everyone needs to survive. My lord N is a kind and excellent person who understands the hearts of Pokémon. But, conversely, perhaps his ability to understand the hearts and feelings of people is not developed enough."''
: ''"But… Even that was part of the perfection of Ghetsis's plan. When it comes to Ghetsis, I cannot separate the truths from the lies. See [[TM32|this]]? I received it from Ghetsis, but I no longer need it. I hope you can put it to good use."''
: ''"Someday, if my lord N develops the ability to understand the feelings of people as well as Pokémon, I would like us to gather again. More than anything, I want to see N confront Ghetsis."''
: ''"If that is what you desire…"''

====Pokémon Black 2 and White 2====
'''[[Driftveil City]]'''
* Before battle
:''"Oh! So you're interested in Team Plasma, are you?"''
:''"My guest. If you're going to come inside, I would like to see what kind of person you are, Trainer. That's right. In a Pokémon battle. Do you find this acceptable?"''
::'''Yes''':''"Let us begin!"''

* When defeated
:''"Ho! You fight as if you really understand your Pokémon!"''

* After being defeated
:''"I apologize for testing you. Being former members of Team Plasma, we must deal with a lot… "''
:''"And that is? Your friend? He may join us."''

* Inside the house
:''"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Rood."''
:''"More accurately, we're former members of Team Plasma. Because of the incident two years ago, we started taking care of the Pokémon that were separated from their Trainers as a way to atone for our misdeeds. And you are?"''
:''"Is that so… My sincerest apologies…"''
:''"The Pokémon you speak of is not in this place. I imagine it is still being used by Team Plasma now. Just as you say, our apologizing doesn't solve anything. But you can't move forward unless you admit you were wrong and apologize…"''
:''"Team Plasma made Trainers like him suffer… I feel terrible about it… How foolish we were… <Player>, as you can see, I can't do anything to thank you. Actually, I have a favor to ask of you. Could you please look after this Pokémon, {{p|Zorua}}?"''
::'''Yes''':''"Oh! Thank you!"''
::'''No''':''"If you change your mind, please come speak to me again."''
:''"That Zorua is one of the Pokémon that my lord [[N]] relied on as a friend during his journey."''

:''"My lord N is a wonderful person who has the power to understand the hearts of Pokémon. But still, he has much to learn about understanding the hearts of people... I hope he will develop this skill while he travels with the legendary Pokémon to atone for the trouble he caused in Unova as the king of Team Plasma."''

'''{{rt|6|Unova}}'''
:''"That Pokémon…?"''
:''"Oh, {{p|Cobalion}}! What a noble presence!"''
:''"Unforgivable… So the reach of [[Ghetsis]]'s ambition and malice is growing ever wider and warping the lives of all it touches…"''
:''"Did Cobalion appear in front of you merely by accident? Or to plead with you to solve a problem? Unlike Lord N, I don't have the ability to understand the minds of Pokémon. Therefore, I don't know what that Pokémon is thinking. But if you can befriend Cobalion, it will be a great asset to you on your journey."''

'''[[Giant Chasm]]'''
* Before Team Plasma's withdrawal
:''"Aah! I will say it as many times as it takes until you understand! Ghetsis's real plan was to take over the Unova region! Liberating Pokémon was nothing more than an excuse! If anything, it would've made Pokémon suffer!"''
:''"Are your Pokémon OK? You should take these with you!"''
:''"[[Hugh|You]], too."''
:''"At times like these, those whose hearts weaken, those whose determination falters, can accomplish nothing! To save our old allies, to protect Unova, we will fight!"''
:''"Both of you, go! No, just a moment… Hugh, was it? About the Pokémon you're looking for… In all likelihood, it is in the possession of the [[Shadow Triad]]--the dark warriors who appear silently."''
:''"At that time, I believed we were on the side of justice. By serving my king, N, I was going to make a world without war. But I was conceited, and I couldn't see the unhappiness we were causing. That's why I can't let it happen again!"''

* After Team Plasma's withdrawal
:''"Oh! You're safe! I'm so glad! As for [[Plasma Frigate|Team Plasma's ship]], a [[Colress|man in a white lab coat]] appeared. He said that a Trainer had given him the answer he'd been seeking, and, as thanks, he would disband Team Plasma…Then he said, "Farewell! Walk a just path with Pokémon!" and he flew the ship away. So everything has been resolved. We were even able to confirm that Lord N is safe."''

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Rood first appeared in ''[[PS467|Letting Go]]'' along with the other sages.

==Trivia==
* Rood is the only sage that gives a [[TM]] that raises the user's stats by a total of one stage. The TMs given by the other sages either raise one stat two stages or two stats one stage.
* In Black and White, Rood quotes a proverb from the {{wp|Analects}} and makes a reference to a Chinese idiom at N's Castle.
* Rood can be seen as Zinzolin's parallel in that Rood is a sage who decided to stay with the sect that remains loyal to N while Zinzolin joins the other sect that is loyal to Ghetsis.

===Quotes===
====Pokémon Black and White====
'''Dragonspiral Tower'''
:''"It's finally time. Our lord N will become the hero! What?! Someone made it clear up here?! Now! Stop that Trainer! For our lord N! Everyone who isn't Team Plasma is an enemy! Use all your powers to take them out!"''

:''"The legend of Unova is about Pokémon and people working together to build a new world! The message is that simple and that strong. If changing the world makes you a hero, anyone can become a hero. As each of us changes what is in our power to change, so the world itself changes."''

In ''[[ABW22|To Make a Musical]]'', Ryoku was shown at Desert Resort, where he was waiting for his grunts to reunite so that they could enter Relic Castle. As one of them was unconscious after being defeated by [[Grimsley]]'s {{p|Bisharp}}, Ryoku decided to leave him behind and go inside, looking for {{p|Volcarona}}. He was last seen with a [[RageCandyBar]] in his hands, in front of some {{p|Darmanitan}} in {{a|Zen Mode}}.

==Trivia==
* In Black and White, Ryoku quotes a proverb by {{wp|Song Dynasty}} philosopher Hu Yin at N's Castle. In the Japanese version, he also quotes a line from ''{{wp|Zhuangzi (book)|Zhuangzi}}''.

Template talk:Crystal color

2013-06-24T15:56:01Z

Duke R: /* Official color */ new section

== Official color ==

[[File:Crystal logo.png|right]]
Despite the common use of turquoise to represent every transparent solid, like glass and diamond, Pokémon Crystal Version used a light shade of purple in its logo, in the game's title screen and in other mediums (for instance, [[a:File:Crystal.battleanimation.png]]).

Since the current color is not the one supposed to represent Pokémon Crystal, my suggestion is the following:
{|
|-
| style="background: #EECFDE; color: #FFFFFF;" align="center" | Crystal color light:
| style="color: #EECFDE;" align="center" | '''EECFDE'''
|-
| style="background: #DDA0C0; color: #FFFFFF;" align="center" | Crystal color:

====Pokémon Black and White====
'''Castelia City'''
:''"I thought it would be humorous to prepare a hideout right in front of a Pokémon Gym, but we were detected more quickly than I imagined."''
:''"Yes?"''

'''N's Castle'''
:''"When the Way is forgotten, duty and justice appear."''
:''"Accursed Gym Leaders!"''
:''"You shall not interfere with Team Plasma... Or our king!"''

'''Chargestone Cave'''
:''"When I saw you in Castelia, I did not care about your existence. Here in the Chargestone Cave, Ghetsis tested your ability... Once more, we will test you to learn what it is you are. Team Plasma, come out!"''
:''"The Pokémon of our Team Plasma are also fighting for their Trainers. It was so obvious that I overlooked it... Thank you for reminding me of that. Here, I'd like you to take [[TM69|this]]."''
:''"Pokémon do their best for their Trainers even when they are injured. I wonder whether my lord N understands what that means?"''
:''"Those who left Team Plasma and are behaving with respect and understanding toward Pokémon... Them, please forgive! However, those who won't interact with Pokémon in a kind and honest way... Even I will never forgive them!"''

'''Chatler''' (Japanese: '''ペラヒコ''' ''Perahiko''), known as '''Chahiko''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, is a {{p|Chatot}} that {{adv|Pearl}} owns in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. He is Pearl's first Pokémon.

==Personality and characteristics==
Like his Trainer, he is quick, impatient and easily irritable, taking out most of his anger on {{adv|Diamond}}'s {{adv|Lax}}, in a manner similar to how Pearl behaves towards Diamond. Pearl occasionally uses him to listen in on conversations and repeat them.

He is a fairly strong fighter and is occasionally used for battling, having been borrowed by {{adv|Platinum}} for her Gym challenges. In {{DL|Celestic Town|Celestic Ruins|Celestic Town's ruins}}, it also fought [[Cyrus]], only to be subdued by the man's {{m|Gravity}} maneuver, after which its Trainer, unable to do a thing in said state, asks for the leader to lift the attack. This allowed for Chatler to gain his mobility and crush the camera Cyrus used to capture the images of the ruin paintings.

Core series

2013-06-19T15:49:27Z

Duke R: Term used by Satoru Iwata multiple times.

{{move|Main series}}
{{move|Pokémon series}}
[[File:RedTitle.png|thumb|The title screen of the English {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Red Version|s}}]]
A '''version''' of the Pokémon games is a {{pkmn|games|game}}, up to present, always released on a [[Nintendo]] handheld system and developed by [[Game Freak]], which follows the now-standard model of a {{player}}'s journey through a specific [[region]] to collect all of the species of Pokémon there. Collectively, the twenty games (twenty-one in Japan and eleven in South Korea) released with the label ''Version'' after the game's title are known by fans as the '''main series''' of Pokémon games. In Japan, this series of games is officially named '''Pocket Monsters Series''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ポケットモンスターシリーズ|Poketto Monsutā Shirīzu}}''').<ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/game-series/ Official Japanese Pokémon site section]</ref>

==Main series model==
===Content model===
While there are no strict rules that make a game a main series game, and previously assumed rules are continuously broken, the games generally have a similar plot and mechanics.

The {{player}} begins the game in a small town or city, having no {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of their own. Through a course of events, he {{tt|or she|Crystal onwards}} will receive a [[starter Pokémon]] from the region's [[Pokémon Professor]]; the starter Pokémon is always a choice of three, a {{t|Grass}} type, {{t|Fire}} type, or {{t|Water}} type, and the character who will become the player's [[rival]] will choose or already have the Pokémon whose [[type]] is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against that of the player's choice. The exceptions to this are {{v2|Yellow}}, in which the player starts with {{p|Pikachu}} and the rival starts with {{p|Eevee}}, and {{2v2|Black|White}}, where one of the player's rivals, [[Bianca]], starts with the Pokémon whose type is [[Damage modification#Not very effective|not very effective]] against the player's.

It is at this point where the storyline of all these {{pkmn|games}} diverge. The player is allowed to journey across the entire [[region]], capturing any [[wild Pokémon]] he or she chooses to, and using a [[party]] he or she assembles to take on the eight [[Gym Leader]]s of the region. Alongside encounters with both other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and repeated interactions with their rival, the player must also stop the plans of a [[Villainous teams|villainous team]], whose plans often involve the manipulation of [[legendary Pokémon]].

After all eight Gym Leaders have been defeated, the player can enter the [[Pokémon League]], where the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}} await challengers.

Though the game can be considered over as soon as the player has defeated the Champion, there is still post-game content. Often there is a post-game plotline and locations and facilities that could not be previously accessed. The overarching goal is the completion of the [[Pokédex]]; after this has been done, the player will receive a [[diploma]] for completing the [[regional Pokédex]] and another for completing the [[National Pokédex]] (only one diploma is awarded in games with only one Pokédex). Starting in [[Generation III]], a new task is added in order to fully complete the game: obtaining all {{ga|Trainer Card}} [[Trainer stars|stars]].

===Mascots===
{{main|Version mascot}}
The boxart for each game features one Pokémon as a mascot, always introduced during the [[generation]] that game is a part of, or the generation that the original game was a part of in the case of [[remake]]s. This Pokémon is referred to by fans as a [[version mascot]], and beginning in [[Generation II]], has always (with the exception of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, remakes of the Japanese {{2v2|Red|Green}} from [[Generation I]]) been the [[legendary Pokémon]] available in that game at the climax of the storyline.

===Release model===
While releases continue to break patterns, there is overall a model that the release of new main series games follows.

When a [[generation]] of Pokémon games begins, a pair of games, seen as counterparts to one another, has always been released. These paired versions feature the virtually the same storyline as each other, but the [[Version-exclusive Pokémon|Pokémon available]] differ, and usually other mechanics are slightly different. This is marketed as a way to encourage [[trade|trading]] by requiring it in order to complete the [[Pokédex]].

A later third game, usually to conclude the generation, is later released with several minor storyline tweaks, but with the same basic plot and taking place in the same [[region]]. Like the first two games, it will always be lacking some of the Pokémon present in one or both of the other games, but will also contain some of those missing from one of the them; thus, players of this third version must link together with the original pair to complete their Pokédex as well.

[[Generation III]] was the first generation to involve the release of two sets of paired versions: first {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} and then {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}. It was also the first generation that did not contain a third version for one of its pairs: Ruby and Sapphire were later joined by {{v2|Emerald}}, but the FireRed and LeafGreen did not receive a third version because they were [[remake]]s. This was later mimicked in [[Generation IV]], except with the third version, {{v2|Platinum}}, being released before the remakes, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

[[Generation V]] is still currently in progress and has had two sets of paired versions, {{2v2|Black|White}} and {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.

[[Generation VI]] will start in October 2013 with the release of [[Pokémon X and Y]].

Pokédex holder

2013-06-17T15:32:43Z

Duke R: I thought of adapting the texts as well but, as you can see, the Pokédexes were obtained by them under the same circustancies. Splitting the text just to include sections with their special skills doesn't work (read it again and you'll see it).

[[File:Emerald chapter.png|thumb|right|300px|The Pokédex holders and their main Pokémon as of the {{chap|Emerald}}]]
'''Pokédex holder''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン図鑑所有者''', ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia owner''), known as '''Pokédex owner''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, is the term used by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}} to describe a {{pkmn|Trainer}} that has been given a [[Pokédex]]. These Trainers are often very gifted in one particular area, dubbed each's "special skill" by Professor Oak to the ones who received a Pokédex from him. These Trainers all have [[starter Pokémon]] from their regional [[Pokémon Professor]]s, though most already owned or trained Pokémon prior to receiving them.

The Pokédex holders have become a very tight knit group with many of them bonding with their cohorts in their regional adventures and later with their seniors and juniors. In the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} the holders from [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] grouped to fight the [[Masked Man]]. During the {{chap|Emerald}}, the 10 first Pokédex holders reunited at the [[Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Frontier]] to fight against [[Guile Hideout]].

===Red - the Fighter===
{{main|Red (Adventures)}}
Red received his Pokédex from Professor Oak after an incident in which all the Pokémon from his [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|Laboratory]] were released. One of the Pokémon that escaped was a [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] that was refusing to be caught and hid inside the [[Viridian Gym]]. When Red went inside the Gym, a {{p|Machoke}} attacked. Red managed to use the few sunlight coming from a window to order Bulbasaur's {{m|SolarBeam}} and defeat the foe. Professor Oak watched what happened and, amazed by his battling skills, gave him the Bulbasaur and a Pokédex. During the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen|fifth chapter}}, Red, along with Green and Blue, got upgraded Pokédexes. His old Pokédex was the only one not destroyed, and was given to Yellow.

Red won the [[Pokémon League]] and became a {{pkmn|Champion}}. He is able to precisely take quick decisions during a {{pkmn|battle}}, turning the movements of opponents against themselves. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Fighter''' (Japanese: '''戦う者''' ''Fighter'').

===Blue - the Trainer===
{{main|Blue (Adventures)}}
Blue Oak is the grandson of Professor Oak and was the first to receive a Pokédex. His Pokédex was first seen in [[Viridian Forest]], where Blue was seen using it to gather data on the Pokémon he was catching. During a battle against a {{p|Kangaskhan}}, he pulled his Pokédex and noticed that Red was also given one by his grandfather. Much to his disdain, as he knew someone also received a Pokédex, but not a Trainer like Red. In the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, his Pokédex got destroyed along with Green's, but was later replaced by an upgraded Pokédex.

Through tough {{pkmn|training}}, Blue increases the [[level]] of his Pokémon, making them apt to dispute in battles against the best Trainers, even using the ones he raised from scratch. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Trainer''' (Japanese: '''育てる者''' ''Trainer'').

===Green - the Evolver===
{{main|Green (Adventures)}}
The first time Green went in Professor Oak's Laboratory was when she stole his [[Blasty|Squirtle]]. Later, at the Pokémon League semi-finals, Green had a battle against Dr. O, who used a team of bird Pokémon, knowing the ornithophobia she acquired after being kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh|a bird Pokémon}} at the age of five. After being defeated by him, his true identity was revealed to be Professor Oak himself, who already knew of her coming from the beginning and had let her steal his Pokémon since it was already intended to be hers. Then, he handed over her own Pokédex. During the fifth chapter, she, Red, and Blue received upgraded Pokédexes. However, her old one was destroyed along with Blue's.

During the time she was kidnapped, Green was prepared to develop her knowledge on Pokémon [[evolution]], having won important battles with the appropriate use of [[evolutionary stone]]s. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''Evolver''' (Japanese: '''化える者''' ''Evolver'').

===Yellow - the Healer===
{{main|Yellow (Adventures)}}
Yellow showed up in Professor Oak's Lab after seeing a hurt [[Pika]] to find out Red's whereabouts. The Professor refused to let Yellow go with Pika and attacked with his {{p|Spearow}}, to what {{adv|Yellow|Dody}} countered in a way that neither Pokémon was hurt in the end. Impressed by the connection with Pokémon and their instinct in trusting Yellow, the Professor decided that he should also trust Yellow and gave Red's Pokédex to Yellow to deliver to him. By the end of the fifth chapter, Red, Blue and Green had received upgraded Pokédexes. Since Blue's and Green's were destroyed by {{adv|Deoxys}}, Red's Pokédex was the only one still working; Red gave this Pokédex to Yellow while she was unconscious.

As a native of Viridian Forest, Yellow has special abilities such as [[Viridian Forest#In the Pokémon Adventures manga|healing with a touch]]. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''Healer''' (Japanese: '''癒やす者''' ''Healer'').

==Johto Pokédex holders==
[[File:Gold Silver Crystal HGSS Adventures.png|thumb|right|Crystal, Gold and Silver]]
===Gold - the Hatcher===
{{main|Gold (Adventures)}}

When Professor Oak told how the Pokédex can be used in battle, Gold asked for one. The Professor said that Pokédexes are meant for research purposes, and the ones he trusted the device were responsible young people who were willing to help others with their strengths, unlike Gold that only cares about his goal and would reduce it to a tool in battle. After much insistence, the Professor asked how Gold sees his Pokémon, to what the boy replied that they are his "partners". For the good answer, the Pokédex was given to him. During the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver|ninth chapter}}, Gold received an upgraded Pokédex.

Gold's ability as a Pokédex holder was the last to be revealed in the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. While he desperately wondered what was his specialty, the Egg he was holding hatched given his {{pkmn|breeding#Hatching eggs|will to protect it}}. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''{{tt|Hatcher|Breeder in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''孵す者''' ''Hatcher'').

===Silver - the Exchanger===
{{main|Silver (Adventures)}}

Silver's Pokédex was first seen during his battle against Gold and then used against {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Later in the story, Professor Oak explained that it was stolen from his 2nd Research Center in [[Cherrygrove City]], the same way that Silver stole the [[Silver's Feraligatr|Totodile]] from [[Professor Elm]]'s Lab in [[New Bark Town]]. He guessed that Silver was the thief after hearing from Green about the time she and he were under the [[Masked Man]]'s control. During the ''HeartGold & SoulSilver'' chapter, Silver received an upgraded Pokédex.

During the time he was kidnapped, Silver was prepared to develop his knowledge on Pokémon [[trade]]s, with many of the Pokémon in his team obtained or evolved through trades. Due to his skill, he is defined as the '''Exchanger''' (Japanese: '''換える者''' ''Exchanger'').

===Crystal - the Catcher===
{{main|Crystal (Adventures)}}

While Professor Oak was looking for a reliable Trainer to collect Pokémon data for him, he got information from {{adv|Bill}} that there was a catcher who would do it for something in return. When the Professor went to [[Earl Dervish]]'s [[Pokémon academy]] for the meeting, a bunch of {{p|Slugma}} attacked a little girl. To protect her, a girl named Crystal used her Pokémon and [[Poké Ball#Level Ball|special Poké Balls]] to catch them all. Amazed by her catching skills, he gave her a Pokédex and, in return, repaired the old academy. During the ninth chapter, Crystal received an upgraded Pokédex.

Crystal is the only holder that actually attempts to fill the Pokédex with data, and went through special training since she was very young, having [[caught Pokémon]] by hundreds. Due to her skill, she is defined as the '''{{tt|Catcher|Capturer in Chuang Yi's translations}}''' (Japanese: '''捕える者''' ''Capturer'').

==Hoenn Pokédex holders==
[[File:PS325.png|200px|thumb|right|Sapphire, Emerald and Ruby]]
===Ruby - Charm===
{{main|Ruby (Adventures)}}

Ruby accidentally kept the Pokédex that [[Professor Birch]] had for his fieldwork to help him defeat the two {{p|Mightyena}} that were attacking him. When Ruby was going to retrieve the Professor's bag, his [[Running Shoes]] activated and he fell from a cliff, being saved and taken to a cave by Sapphire. Ruby left her with a letter, telling her to return her father's goods, but forgot the Pokédex in his pocket. In [[Oldale Town]], when he was attacked by a {{p|Dustox}}, the Pokédex resonated and once again helped Ruby to defeat the Pokémon. He decided to keep it so that he could escape in time from the new Pokémon he would meet.

Whether obtaining {{pkmn|Contest}} {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Hoenn Contest Ribbons|Ribbons}} or fighting against enemies, Ruby always prioritizes '''charm''' (Japanese: '''魅せる''') in his actions, this being his special skill.

===Sapphire - Quest===
{{main|Sapphire (Adventures)}}

Sapphire Birch is Professor Birch's daughter. While she was doing fieldwork, Sapphire saw Ruby falling down from a cliff and got him by swinging on hanging vines. She took him to her [[secret base]], where they started a scuffle over their different views on Pokémon. In the middle of their battle, a {{p|Seviper}} appeared and attacked them. In order to defeat it, she used a Pokédex to get data about the Pokémon. She explained to Ruby that she was keeping it to help her father in his researches. When her quest on challenging all [[Gym]]s in [[Hoenn]] started, Sapphire took the Pokédex with her.

Sapphire accomplished the feat of obtaining all 8 {{DL|Badge|Hoenn League|Gym Badges}} in 80 days. Her special skill consists of always mastering whatever she '''quests for''' (Japanese: '''究める''').

===Emerald - Calm===
{{main|Emerald (Adventures)}}

Emerald was recommended by the [[Trick Master]] to live in Earl Dervish's Pokémon academy, to overcome the bullying he suffered, which made him reluctant to interact with other children and with Pokémon. When Emerald arrived at the academy, he was impressed by Crystal's dedication for others, working hard to fulfill the Pokédex for Professor Oak to get repairs in the building and new clothes for the homeless children in return. He then decided to ask for a Pokédex so that he could also help others. In the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], Emerald called the Professor with a message saying that he wanted a Pokédex so that he could live together with Pokémon. Yet, Professor Oak registered Emerald as the owner of the Pokédex but didn't give it to him, saying that he lied about wanting to be with Pokémon, since Earl declared that he avoids any contact with them. Only when Emerald found his own path in relating with Pokémon, the Professor accepted to give him the Pokédex. He then had to head to Hoenn, where his Pokédex was with Professor Birch.

One of the {{DL|Emerald (Adventures)|gadgets}} used by Emerald shoots dirt from a Pokémon's birthplace around it, acting similar to a [[Capture Styler]]. This method defines Emerald's special skill to '''calm''' (Japanese: '''鎮める''') rampant Pokémon down.

==Sinnoh Pokédex holders==
[[File:Diamond Pearl Platinum Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|Pearl, Platinum and Diamond]]
As a member of nobility, {{adv|Platinum|Lady Berlitz}} must meet the tradition of making an artifact from materials found on the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]], as the other heirs of her family. For the journey, [[Professor Rowan]] gave her a suitcase with three Pokédexes, [[Pokétch]]es and the three Sinnoh starters to be used by the Lady and the two bodyguards hired by her father, that she was supposed to meet in front of [[Jubilife Condominiums]].

'''{{adv|Diamond}}''' and '''{{adv|Pearl}}''' are childhood friends from [[Twinleaf Town]] that aim to become masters of comedy. They took part in a contest held by [[Jubilife TV]] that would reward the best stand-up comedians, but failed in their performance. However, they received a special prize for their peculiar humor, tickets for a travel. Before opening the envelope with the tickets, they bumped against Professor Rowan and his assistant (Lady Berlitz's father) in the middle of a crowd and ended up having their envelope exchanged with the one containing instructions for the Lady's bodyguards on their travel to Mt. Coronet. Arriving at the meeting point, they assumed she was a tour guide for their trip, while she thought they were her bodyguards, giving each a Pokémon, a Pokétch and a Pokédex. The trio traveled around [[Sinnoh]] until the misunderstanding was clarified, when she decided to reveal her first name, '''{{adv|Platinum}}'''.

Their special skills match the [[lake guardians]] they have bonded with. Diamond is guided by the {{p|Mesprit|emotion}} he '''feels''' (Japanese: '''感じる'''), Pearl is full of {{p|Azelf|willpower}} on whatever he '''intends''' (Japanese: '''志す''') to do, and Platinum '''knows''' (Japanese: '''知る''') about various subjects due to the outstanding {{p|Uxie|knowledge}} she is imbued with.

==Unova Pokédex holders==
[[File:Black White Adventures.png|200px|thumb|right|White and Black]]
===Black - Dream===
{{main|Black (Adventures)}}

[[Professor Juniper]] sent a package with three Pokédexes and three Pokémon to Black, {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}}. The box was supposed to be delivered at Black's house, but he was so eager to receive it that waited all night outside the Juniper Pokémon Lab. When the deliveryman gave the package to him, he opened it to choose his starter before his friends. But as it rained the day before, Black was drenched and sneezed on the box, releasing the three Pokémon and letting two of the Pokédexes fall on a pond. He went after [[Buoh|one of the Pokémon]] that escaped and started his adventure, leaving Cheren and Bianca behind with two broken Pokédexes.

Since his childhood, Black is devoted to his objective of winning the [[Unova League]] to become the Champion. His dedication to the '''dream''' (Japanese: '''夢みる''') he follows is his special skill.

===White===
{{main|White (Adventures)}}

During Black's journey, he ended up working for White, the president of the [[BW Agency]]. She managed Pokémon actors for movies but had never trained a single Pokémon before. Later on, White learned the qualifications of a Pokémon Trainer from the very beginning, such as catching, battling and evolving. When she already had a full team of six Pokémon, Bianca gave White her Pokédex and she became a Pokédex holder.

==Former Pokédex holders==
===Wally===
{{main|Wally (Adventures)}}

Wally found Professor Birch's bag adrift in the sea during the flood caused by {{p|Kyogre}}'s rampage. Inside the bag was a Pokédex and a [[Emerald's Sceptile|Treecko]]. Wally temporarily used the Pokédex and the Pokémon when he was helping [[Norman]] to awaken {{p|Rayquaza}} in the [[Sky Pillar]]. After the cataclysmic battle between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}} ceased, Wally sent the Pokédex back to Professor Birch, who gave it to its registered owner, Emerald.

In the magazine releases of Pokémon Adventures, there was a scene in which Wally was registered as owner of the Pokédex he found. This scene did not appear in the volume releases, turning him into a mere user of Emerald's Pokédex.

===Bianca===
{{main|Bianca (Adventures)}}

Bianca, along with Cheren and Black, was chosen by Professor Juniper to fill the Pokédex with data. Even though Black made her Pokédex unusable, Bianca left on her journey, sometimes meeting with Cheren, Black and/or White. When her Pokédex was fixed, Bianca decided to give it to White.

===Cheren===
{{main|Cheren (Adventures)}}

Although Cheren was chosen by Professor Juniper to have a Pokédex, Team Plasma's actions made him see the device as an excuse to trap Pokémon in Poké Balls, and that the strength he pursues could be achieved without it. Cheren then decided to be not a Pokédex holder any longer.

==Others==
Throughout the series, some characters had relevant association with the usage of Pokédexes, though they do not belong to the Pokédex holders group.
* Professor Birch was using Emerald's Pokédex before it was lost and later found by Wally.
* Before the Pokédex was upgraded in the ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' chapter, [[Carr]] duplicated Red's into a "black Pokédex". It was seen being held by {{adv|Giovanni}} and by [[the Three Beasts]].
* [[Paka and Uji]] would have been Pokédex holders if the mixup with Professor Rowan and Professor Berlitz with Diamond and Pearl did not happen.

==Trivia==
* All current Pokédex holders are named after the [[Version|main series]] games. 
* Every Pokédex holder named after an English [[Version|third version]] is known by another name. Yellow is also called Amarillo del Bosque Verde, Crystal's nickname is Crys, Emerald is called Rald by {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}, and Platinum was previously known as Lady Berlitz.

Duke R: /* New pallette */ new section

== New pallette ==

Sorry, but the new color that Kogoro changed is very similar to [[Template:Contest color]]. Shouldn't the new pallette be discrepant from one already used. Plus, the old one was created based on the new type announcement on the E3 video, so it's more official than any other color for the type, right? The colors for types found in www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/xy/pokemon/new/images/img_new_02_01.png don't match the ones used in-game.

==Manga issues==
Hi. I didn't realize that you and FinnishPokefan had gone back and forth, so I came here to talk to you so as to not make it an edit war. ^-^ You said that you were confused about some things, and hopefully I can help you out.
* You pointed out Silver's Rhydon, but it used it under Green's ownership. While that is true, Silver is now the owner of it, and it evolved under his ownership. The point is, Silver is now Rhydon's owner, and the current owner is what we go by. This is the case for all traded Pokemon, like {{AP|Buizel}} and {{AP|Chimchar}}. It just makes it easier that way. As for when Emerald borrowed Crys's Pokemon, he was just simply borrowing them, and gave them back after he was done, so they weren't his to begin with.
* Another point is nicknames. Like Pokemon, human nicknames should be added, since that's what they like to go by. We should call Red Saur 'Red's Venusaur', because it has a name, so it's the same with the humans; Crystal likes to be called Crys, and Diamond likes to be called Dia. While it is true that it isn't what their articles are named, the articles would be incorrect if they weren't called by their full names.
* One last one is sorting them by release dates. Where did you hear that from, if I may ask? I've heard the correct way to assort them is in Alphabetical order.
Anyways, I hope I answered all your questions and lifted your confusion. Sorry for all the confusion and reverting. XD [[User:Littlmiget123|Littlmiget123]] 16:24, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
:Yeah, I hate edit wars.
:*If this is how things go here, it's okay. And about Shedinja being Crystal's, I know this. Actually, I'm the one who made [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Crystal_%28Adventures%29&action=historysubmit&diff=1474349&oldid=1446154 the section] in her article.
:*I remember I used Dia once in an article, and an Admin replaced it for Diamond, stating this is BP's terminology. In [[Crystal (Adventures)]], Crys is only used when mentioned as her nickname, never to refer to the character. But once again, if this is how things go here, it's okay.
:*I did it based on the [[Pokémon manga]] article. It's annoying to look at many short mangas to find the more everlasting ones (which are probably the most searched). But if this seems counter-productive, please undo it.

== Owner of Horsea dilemma ==

I don't want to get into an edit war (nor is it allowed) so I'll tell you the "facts" on this page. Lance was never seen with a Horsea or any of its evolved forms in the manga. Lance's main Pokemon is Dragonite and Clair's is Kingdra so it would make perfect sense for them to have their basic forms as children. Kusaka isn't the kind of writer to showcase a Pokemon in a flashback that was never owned by a trainer in any way in present time. Finally, Horsea being on Lance's side doesn't mean that it belongs to him. Based on appearance, Lance is commanding the Dratini since he's looking at it and he's gesturing at it indicating that he's commanding it and vice-versa for Clair. All those facts are indicating that the Horsea doesn't belong to Lance. [[User:Arceus101|Arceus101]] ([[User talk:Arceus101|talk]]) 21:16, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

== Edit War ==

In order to prevent an edit war I'd like for you to give me a legitimate reason why that bit of Trivia about Proton's Japanese name is not noteworthy? Please do not remove trivia just because it isn't interesting to you. --[[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']]''' 16:44, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

'''Proton''' (Japanese: '''ランス''' ''Lance'') is one of the four [[Team Rocket]] {{tc|Executive}}s introduced in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. However, his true identity wasn't revealed until {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

==In the games==
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Proton is first seen and battled in the [[Slowpoke Well]], where [[Team Rocket]] is trying to cut off {{p|Slowpoke}} tails to make a profit. Later, the player meets and battles him for the second time in [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]].

Proton is labeled as the scariest and cruelest of Team Rocket, yet also remains one of the more popular Executives. A Grunt in the Radio Tower admits to how she admires him. Proton seems to be very easily aggravated.

In [[Generation II]], the character of Proton is, in reality, two characters: an ordinary {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt|grunt}} originally taking his place in [[Slowpoke Well]] and a Rocket Executive encountered in the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]]. These two are amalgamated into Proton for [[Generation IV]], who shares both their single Pokémon.

Proton's position has existed since {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. However, his existence was easy to miss because all Rocket Executives used the same sprite (now adopted as [[Archer]]'s canonical design), making it seem to some like there was only one Executive. The Rocket Executive (as well as the grunt) Proton is based on was then given a canonical design and an official name in HeartGold and SoulSilver, along with the other three Executives, to distinguish them as individuals. [[Petrel]]'s case is the same.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Rocket Executives Adventures.png‎|thumb|220px|Proton and his teammates in Pokémon Adventures]]
Proton appears in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} alongside the other three Executives. He, along with his teammates, take control of Team Rocket from [[Carr]], saying that they will stay true to {{adv|Giovanni}}'s intentions.

While Petrel is tasked on finding the Plates related to {{p|Arceus}}, Ariana is tasked on stopping intruders from stopping them, Proton is tasked with finding the [[Sinjoh Ruins]]. While Ariana battles {{adv|Crystal}} on Route 38, he and the other Generals arrive on the scene. Suddenly, Arceus appears in front of them and Crystal attempts to capture it, shocking the Generals in the process. Despite her tenacity, Crystal ultimately fails in capturing the Pokémon and is sent flying into a tree.

The Generals chase Arceus down and find it battling {{adv|Gold}} at the Ruins of Alph. Once Arceus uses its powers and transports them all to the Sinjoh Ruins, the four Generals restrain Arceus and force it onto the Mystri Stage. Using its great powers, they force Arceus to create the legendary Pokémon {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}.

Believing they have pleased their boss, Giovanni, Proton, Ariana, and Archer begin tearing up. However, Silver distracts them by flying towards the Pokémon so Gold and Crystal can finish off the other legendary Pokémon. Once they do so, Arceus, now freed from its restraints, uses its powers to send Proton and the other Generals flying. During the final battle with Arceus, Proton stayed away from the fight by hiding behind a rock with his teammates. After the battle had ended, Proton left with the other Team Rocket members and {{adv|Giovanni}}.

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation II]], all the Rocket Executives (male and female) went unnamed. In the case of the male Executives, they all shared the same sprite, which eventually led to some confusion among the fans when Proton and [[Petrel]] were revealed. It was believed by many that they were introduced in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. However, closer research proved that the Executive role Proton is filling has existed since {{v2|Gold and Silver|s}}, appearing in the same place in [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] and training {{p|Golbat}}, just like his [[Generation IV]] counterpart. However, a {{p|Weezing}} was added to his team, to compensate for his additional role of replacing the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt|grunt}} that originally participated in the [[Slowpoke Well]] mission, who had the {{p|Koffing}} Proton is initially seen with. Although Proton and Petrel's designs, names, and personalities weren't fleshed-out until Generation IV, they have both technically existed since Generation II.

Plate

2013-06-14T16:08:48Z

Duke R: /* In the manga */

[[File:Arceus Plates anime.png|thumb|230px|Plates in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'']]
A '''Plate''' (Japanese: '''プレート''' ''Plate'') is a type of [[held item]] introduced in [[Generation IV]], primarily for use in [[Variant Pokémon#Arceus|changing]] the type and color of {{p|Arceus}} and the type of its [[signature move]], {{m|Judgment}}, to the corresponding type of Plate. However, it will also increase the attack power of [[move]]s of the Plate's type used by any Pokémon holding it by 20%. There is a Plate available for every type except {{t|Normal}}, and while there exists a {{type|???}} Arceus in the Generation IV data, there is no associated ??? Plate, meaning there are 16 Plates in total. In Generation V, the ???-type has been removed from the data altogether.

The 16 Plates are spread far and wide across [[Sinnoh]], and additional ones can also be dug up in [[the Underground]]. The captain of the [[S.S. Aqua]] will also give one away in index number order each day; however the player must have all 16 Badges first. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, two of the Plates are given to the player by a treasure hunter in a house in {{rt|13|Unova}}. The treasure hunter will mention that he found the Plates in the [[Abyssal Ruins]], and indeed, the rest of the Plates can be found there. What follows is a list of what effect a Plate has when held, and where they can be found in Generation IV besides in the Underground, and in Generation V.

==Engravings==
Each Plate has a different engraving which reveals part of the myth of the creation of the Pokémon universe. No engraving is tied to a specific Plate; they will appear each one at a time depending on how many Plates the player has found so far, with the ninth Plate found using the same engraving as the first. In Platinum, after talking to the Hiker on the second floor of the Canalave Library, a book on the second floor with the engravings written in it will be left by the Hiker the player met in Oreburgh Mine.
*''"When the {{pkmn|universe}} was created, its [[shard]]s became this Plate."''
*''"The power of defeated giants infuses this Plate."''
*''"Two beings of {{p|Dialga|time}} and {{p|Palkia|space}} set free from the {{p|Arceus|Original One}}."''
*''"[[Lake guardian|Three beings]] were born to bind {{tt|time|Dialga}} and {{tt|space|Palkia}}."''
*''"[[Creation trio|Two]] make matter and {{tt|three|Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf}} make spirit, shaping the {{pkmn|world}}."''
*''"The {{tt|Original One|Arceus}} breathed alone before the universe came."''
*''"The powers of Plates are [[held item|shared among Pokémon]]."''
*''"The rightful bearer of a Plate {{a|Multitype|draws from}} the Plate it holds."''

==In the anime==
Plates first appeared in ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', where [[Saturn]] and two {{tc|Galactic Grunt}}s placed them in a room of the [[Solaceon Ruins]] to obtain the [[Spear Key]] and awaken the {{p|Unown}} there. These Plates were specifically the Draco Plate, Iron Plate, and Splash Plate, which power up the three types of {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Dialga}} ({{t|Dragon}}, {{t|Steel}}, and {{t|Water}}) combined.

The Plates appeared again in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}} used them to change its type, and almost died when it lost all of the Plates after having destroyed a meteor. [[Damos]] found one of these lost Plates and returned it to Arceus, giving it the strength to recall the other 15 Plates. That act earned its trust and prompted it to detach the Earth Plate, Splash Plate, Meadow Plate, Zap Plate, and Draco Plate in the form of the [[Jewel of Life]] so Damos could make [[Michina Town]] flourish.

==In the manga==
[[File:Arceus Plates Adventures.png|thumb|right|Plates in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
The Plates first appeared in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, in which [[Petrel]] was collecting them for [[Team Rocket]]'s plan. After {{adv|Silver}} stole the Plates from him, Petrel decided to let him gather all 16 Plates, just to get them back at once later. At the [[Mystri Stage]], [[Archer]] took the Plates from Silver and used them on {{p|Arceus}}.

==Trivia==
* Plates may have some relation to [[shard]]s, which are described as pieces of ancient tools. Their underground sprites likewise indicate that they are merely broken parts of Plates.
* While all Plates will rearrange Arceus's [[Pokéathlon]] stats, the Draco Plate will boost Arceus's total Pokéathlon stats by 1.

List of unused Pokémon and character designs

2013-06-13T16:03:19Z

Duke R: /* Unreleased characters */

There are Pokémon and characters that were just a few of many different designs that [[Game Freak]] created. Only a few were added, and even those often went through redesigns before making it into the final product.

==Unreleased Pokémon==
===[[Capsule Monsters]] designs===
{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Buhi
|type1=Unknown
|img=Capsule Monsters Buhi.jpg
|epnum=Capsule Monsters

{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Godzillante & Gorillaimo
|type1=Fire
|type2=Unknown
|img=Capsule Monsters Godzillante Gorillaimo.jpg
|epnum=Capsule Monsters
|epname=Capsule Monsters
|desc=[[File:248Tyranitar.png|150px|right]][[File:289Slaking.png|150px|right]]Nothing is known about this first Pokémon 'Godzillante'. It may have been {{type|Fire}}, as it is shown to be breathing fire. As its name implies, it was most likely based on {{wp|Godzilla}}. Godzillante notably shares a resemblance to one of the [http://dogasu.bulbagarden.net/manga/pocket_monsters/pm_01/09_fake_pokemon.jpg fake Pokémon toys] shown in the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga {{Vol|Pokémon Pocket Monsters|1}} (p. 107). The Japanese name of {{p|Tyranitar}} is also based on Godzilla. Nothing is known about the second Pokémon 'Gorillaimo'. Its hat could be a reference to the character {{wb|Ninten}} from the {{wb|Ape Inc.}} game, {{wb|Mother (video game)|Mother}}. It also resembles the [[Nintendo]] character [[dk:Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong]]. Gorillaimo could also be based on King Kong. Later generations have introduced many ape-based Pokémon. {{p|Slaking}} is the most notable, as it shares the most physical traits with Gorillaimo.}}

{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Dragon4
|type1=Dragon
|img=Capsule Monsters Dragon4.jpg
|epnum=Capsule Monsters
|epname=Capsule Monsters
|desc=[[File:006Charizard.png|150px|right]]This Pokémon's Pokédex number is #174, the same as {{p|Igglybuff}}'s. It knows a move called 'Fire Breath' that requires 70 TP. It has short arms, a long tail, two horns on the back of its head and average dragon-like wings, just like {{p|Charizard}}.}}

{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Kazeniga
|type1=Unknown
|img=
|epnum=Capsule Monsters
|epname=Capsule Monsters
|desc=[[File:039Jigglypuff.png|150px|right]]Not much is know about this Pokémon, except that it is roughly humanoid with a body shape similar to a Jigglypuff. It was seen being captured by an [[Red|early protagonist]] without being weakened first; in fact, no Pokémon were sent out.}}

===Pokémon designs===
{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Kurusu
|type1=Water
|img=Alpha kurusu.png
|epnum=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|epname=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|desc=The only known information about this creature is its name and image. In the playable alpha demo of Gold and Silver, its National Pokédex number was 212, it was a {{type|Water}}, and knew the moves {{m|Growl}}, {{m|Water Gun}}, and {{m|Tackle}}. Despite its Pokédex numbering, it was the Water-type starter in said demo. Since it resembles a seal, some fans believe it may have inspired {{p|Spheal}}'s design, but they are no more similar than either of them is to {{p|Seel}}.}}

{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Honōguma
|type1=Fire
|img=Alpha honouguma.png
|epnum=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|epname=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|desc= Like Kurusu above, its name and image are all that is known about it. While not confirmed, its name, a combination of 炎 ''honō'', flame, and 熊 ''kuma'', bear, almost definitely indicates it was a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon. In the alpha, it was a {{type|Fire}}, and knew the moves Ember, Scratch, and Leer; it was the Fire-type starter. Given its name refers to it as a bear, some fans believe it could have been an early version of the {{p|Teddiursa}} evolution family.}}

{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Unnamed creature
|type1=Unknown
|img=Alpha top.png
|epnum=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|epname=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|desc=[[File:237Hitmontop.png|150px|right]]Artwork was created for this strange creature, even though it was never given a name. Its extremely odd appearance is somewhat similar to {{p|Hitmontop}}; namely, the multiple feet around its midsection. Although this creature has its point located on its bottom, and Hitmontop has its point located on its head, this creature may have been redesigned as Hitmontop. Due to its size, it would seem unlikely that it was originally part of the {{p|Tyrogue}} evolution line. It also bears some resemblance to {{p|Clefairy}}. }}

{{TrainerPoké
|nick=Unnamed turtle
|type1=Unknown
|img=Alpha turtle.png
|epnum=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|epname=Pokémon Gold and Silver beta
|desc=[[File:564Tirtouga.png|200px|right]]Nothing is known about this turtle Pokémon. Notably, it barely resembles anything that was released in Generation II. It bears a resemblance to {{p|Tirtouga}} from [[Generation V]].}}

|epnum=Game Freak
|epname=Game Freak interview
|desc=[[File:179Mareep.png|200px|right]]{{Bulbanews|Unused Pokémon design revealed in magazine interview}}Nothing is known about this Pokémon, nor is there any artwork of it known to exist. [[Junichi Masuda]] and [[Ken Sugimori]] revealed in an interview with @Gamer magazine that there was a rejected Pokémon design based on the first cloned sheep, {{wp|Dolly (sheep)|Dolly}}. They removed it after deeming it "too controversial" for Pokémon. Since Dolly was born almost eight months after the Japanese release of Pokémon Red and Green, it is likely that this Pokémon would have been intended for [[Generation II]]. Some fans believe that instead of being abandoned entirely, the rejected design was reworked into {{p|Mareep}} or {{p|Flaaffy}}.}}

Of these differences, the early Tyranitar design is more heavy-set, has a tan rather than indigo belly, has arms more reminiscent of Nidoking, and dozens of short spikes upon its back rather than a few long ones.

{{main|Leaf (game)}}

This art of a female character (with {{p|Squirtle}}) was featured on the cover artwork for the official strategy guide for {{2v2|Red|Green|}}, as published by [[Shogakukan]].  A similar character appears [[a:File:Sugi art book.png|several]] [[a:File:Kensugiart3.png|times]] in unofficial artbooks that came packaged with Pokémon origami sets (bottom). The artbooks were, however, illustrated by Emiko Yoshino rather than Ken Sugimori. When Red and Green were later [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|remade]], players finally got the chance to use a {{ga|Leaf|female player character}} who was possibly based on this character.

In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, a similar artwork appeared at the end of {{PAV|3}} (right). The design of the character {{adv|Green}} seems to have drawn inspiration from this unknown female character. After the release of {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, Green donned the same outfit as the female player character in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen|fifth chapter}} of the manga, namely due to their near exact resemblance.

==Unknown cries==

===In {{2v2|Red|Blue}}===
Within the coding of Pokémon Red and Blue, data exists for nine unused Pokémon cries. <ref>[http://iimarck.us/i/missing-number Missing Number - IIMarckus]</ref> The cries are defined accordingly to the Pokémon's [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation I)|index numbers]]. Whereas cry data for 30 [[Missingno.]] are left blank, resulting in voice 0 ({{p|Nidorino}}), pitch 0 and length 0 cries, there are a number of remaining cries which appear to have been defined intentionally. Cry 181 is notably similar to {{p|Crobat}}'s cry in {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}.
