Talk:Mega Evolution

2019-01-16T03:32:22Z

Elite4Alola: /* Effect of mega Evolution on the ability to use a Z-move */

*[[Talk:Mega Evolution/Archive 1|Archive 1]]

== Image for Mega Rayquaza ==

Given that Rayquaza's page has an image for its Mega Evolution, shouldn't this article have one as well? I'd add it in myself, but I am not allowed to edit the page, so could someone add one for me, please? [[User:Uncle Edit|He's here! The one and only...Uncle Edit!]] ([[User talk:Uncle Edit|talk]]) 21:17, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

:Bump [[User:Uncle Edit|He's here! The one and only...Uncle Edit!]] ([[User talk:Uncle Edit|talk]]) 17:34, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
::I believe we're waiting for the official artwork to come out before adding it. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 19:03, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
:::I understand that official artwork take priority before anything else, but why does Rayquaza's page have an image but not this one? It really doesn't make sense to me. Of course, in the event we decide to use said image for both articles, we can remove it once official artwork comes out for Mega Rayquaza. That screen-cap certainly isn't something that we should use permanently. [[User:Uncle Edit|He's here! The one and only...Uncle Edit!]] ([[User talk:Uncle Edit|talk]]) 19:22, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

==Separate Mini-Sections==
I was thinking that if it should come to it ''Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution'' can have the entries split up into two separate mini-sections: ''Introduced in X and Y'' and ''Introduced in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire''. However I would like to wait first until more information comes out first before doing such as thing. If the new Mega Pokémon are confirmed to be incompatible with X and Y then I would definitely support this idea. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 17:01, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
:Nice Idea. But what do you mean "''incompatible''" ? → [[User talk:PikaTepig999|'''''P''ika''T''epig999''']] 17:18, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
::We might or might not get a patch that updated XY with ORAS megas (the only that pre-exist in XY are the Lati@s mega). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 17:21, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
:::It is also the same as how Pokémon with newer forms that were introduced in Platinum and Black & White 2 were not compatible with the original games (Diamond & Pearl and Black & White). -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 17:25, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
::::There's not gonna be a patch. So now it will be better if the megas are divided into two sections. → [[User talk:PikaTepig999|'''''P''ika''T''epig999''']] 15:32, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
:::::You cannot know that. It won't hurt anything to at least wait until ORAS is released. Then we'll at least know exactly what to say about how the Mega evolution compatibility is handled between ORAS and XY. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:47, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

== Ice has two now ==

Fix the trivia [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 13:10, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
:It's fixed. Thanks for the reminder. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 14:45, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
::While you're at it, Electric also has the least (2), the same as ice. Fix it, okay?--[[User:Omojuzeforever|Omojuzeforever]] ([[User talk:Omojuzeforever|talk]]) 15:32, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
::And Psychic has 10, not 9. Dragons have 9 though..--[[User:Omojuzeforever|Omojuzeforever]] ([[User talk:Omojuzeforever|talk]]) 15:33, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

== Lati@sites tradeable to XY? ==

Does the game let you trade the Lati@sites over to XY? If so should a little note be added mentioning that these mega-stones are in the code for XY despite not being made available till ORAS? [[User:Jmvb|Jmvb]] ([[User talk:Jmvb|talk]]) 01:54, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

== PokéGods? ==

Is it plausible to assume that some ideas for Mega Evolution might have been inspired by the infamous [[PokéGods]] that were popular in the fandom back in the 1990s and early 2000s? If so, this should be added as trivia. A good source on PokéGods is the RAGECANDYBAR project site ([http://www.blue-reflections.net/ragecandybar/projects/pokegods/ link]). [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 17:26, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

:No, I don't think so. While the possibility that Game Freak could have possibly been inspired by such rumors may exist, there's zero reason to ASSUME that they were inspired by them, especially since to my knowledge Game Freak has never acknowledged those rumors before. —[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 18:15, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

== I would like to know something... ==

Before I put something like this in the trivia: "Before the introduction of {{p|Lopunny}}'s Mega Evolution in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], {{p|Meloetta}} in its' [[Pirouette Forme]] was the only Pokémon with a [[unique type combination]] of Normal/Fighting.", does anyone who's reading this it's wise to do so? Oh, and Merry Christmas, Bulbapedia! [[User:IM-T-MAN2|IM-T-MAN2]] ([[User talk:IM-T-MAN2|talk]]) 03:55, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
:No. "Used to be" trivias aren't really notable.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:05, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
::^I'd replace "really" with "generally" in the above, as there are always exceptions.

== Two Things ==

I may be blind, but it looks like it needs to be mentioned how the Mega Evolutions introduces in ORAS are not compatible with XY. However, Latios and Latias are. I'm not really sure the best way to word that so if someone could figured out a way to incorporate that it would be awesome. If I'm blind than I apologize for bringing this up.

Also, this was briefly talked about prior to ORAS release, but should the list of Mega Evolutions be changed a little? Right now it's two lists, the XY ones, and the ORAS ones. However, someone mentioned that we could put all of them in one list and add another column indicating the game they were released in.

== Gen IV ==

A system remotely similar to mega evolution introduced in gen IV when magmortar, electivire, magnetzone, dusknoir, gallade, and rhyperior (I might have missed some). It involves trading certain Pokémon whilst they are holding a certain item. However, unlike mega evolution, this change is permanent.{{unsigned|QwertyJacob750}}

== M Pokémon EX cards ==

right now i can't edit it but a lot of M Pokémon EX cards are missing from this page

can anybody with the info update this one?--[[User:Kyokencl|kyokencl]] ([[User talk:Kyokencl|talk]]) 03:45, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

== Gen IV ==

A system remotely similar to mega evolution introduced in gen IV when magmortar, electivire, magnetzone, dusknoir, gallade, and rhyperior (I might have missed some). It involves trading certain Pokémon whilst they are holding a certain item. However, unlike mega evolution, this change is permanent.{{unsigned|QwertyJacob750}}

== How Mega Evolution has Changed in Pokemon Sun and Moon ==

Shouldn't the page be updated for how now in Pokemon Sun and Moon, Pokemon who are Mega Evolving get their change in speed stats (if applicable, of course) applied immediately like all their other stats, and not one turn later like in Generation 6?--[[User:Rithvikkiran|Rithvikkiran]] ([[User talk:Rithvikkiran|talk]]) 00:42, 27 December 2016 (UTC)

== TCG Card List ==
I don't know how or why this is happening, I checked the coding myself and what the coding says should be happening isn't what is actually happening. The coding for the TCG Card List is where it should be, in the [[Mega Evolution#TCG|TCG]] section. But on the article page, the TCG Card List is actually appearing in the [[Mega Evolution#In Other Languages|In Other Languages]] section. Thought this would be something to be looking into by someone far more experienced than me in coding. I thought it might be my computer personally so I did what I knew to do, refresh the page, followed by purging the page. Nothing changed.

== LGP and LGE ==

How does Mega Evolution work in LGP and LGE? If there's no held items, how can Pokémon Mega Evolve? Am I the only one who's confused about this? Please clarify... [[User:Striker212|Striker212]] ([[User talk:Striker212|talk]]) 15:11, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

== Effect of mega Evolution on the ability to use a Z-move ==

I find no information pertaining to whether mega evolution affects the ability to use a [[Z-Move]] in any way. Does this mean the trainer can both mega evolve a Pokémon and unleash a Z-Move in the same battle?

== Rotom Pokédex in "Unofficial" Segment ==

The Rotom Pokédex qualifies under that category and travels alongside Ash and his buddies. Should it be included? If so, the template will need a minor adjustment for this to work. [[User:Pikatwig|Pikatwig]] ([[User talk:Pikatwig|talk]]) 03:05, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:I'm all for its inclusion. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 21:51, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

== Ash staying 10years old ==

The convention in Delaware with the original voice actor of Jessie when asked Ash's age said he was still 10 because the show is an evergreen show.--Pokemonfansuper 13:46, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

== In the games section ==
Should we have a section of Ash's appearances in the games? He's appeared in Puzzle League and implied to be the writer of the letter at the beginning of the Sun and Moon demo. He's also present in all the SEGA Pico games, and there are event Pokémon based on his Pokémon (like Ash's Pikachu back in Generation IV and now Ash-Greninja).

== Taking Care Of segment for Pokémon Egg ==

Since both he and Lillie were tasked with watching over the Pokémon Egg, it should be noted on both of their pages. [[User:Pikatwig|Pikatwig]] ([[User talk:Pikatwig|talk]]) 18:17, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

== Poke Ride ==

Why don't we add the Poke ride Pokémon that Ash uses? I had added Sharpedo, Tauros and Lapras but they removed? Why should Poke Ride be listed on Kiawe'd page but not Ash's? [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 17:53, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
:Everything that Ash uses or interacts with in any way should not (IMO) be notable. He rides Poke Ride Pokemon. So? That's what they're there for, he doesn't own them or anything significant. I really think random Poke Ride Pokemon should be removed from others' pages too, but I removed them here in particular because Ash just has so many Pokemon listed, and these ones really didn't deserve it (again, IMO). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:10, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

But he actually using them in the series as Kiawe have Pokemon to ride at school as it shown own his page. He doesn't own the Taurus from the Pokemon school or the wailmer. If I'm correct, dose that mean Ash on his article should have those Pokemon own his article. Ash shown to use few Pokemon that aren't in the game to ride on such as Wailmer and pelipper. Should we add those Pokemon it seems important for the series articles. --[[User:DragoAlex|DragoAlex]] ([[User talk:DragoAlex|talk]]) 19:29, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

== Split suggestion ==

I propose that we split off the lists of Ash's Pokémon into a secondary article, which could be titled "Ash Ketchum's Pokémon," "Ash's Pokémon," "Ash Ketchum/Pokémon," or anything similar. By my count, the anime list alone takes up a full quarter of this page's ridiculous size (25k of ~100k bytes). In my opinion, this page should keep whatever Ash has in his party or in rotation, since that's what's relevant to the current anime, and everything else would be visible on the secondary page without cluttering up this main page. Thanks for your consideration. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 19:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
:I think it's the temporary Pokémon section that's taking up the most space and should be split off the page. We do have a [[List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio]], so we can do the same for Ash's temporary Pokémon. However, everything else is too important to place elsewhere.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:46, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

:::I agree with Pumpkinking0192 as in we should split the page, the anime isn't likely to stop soon and Ash is bound to get more pokemon as time goes on Though I do believe that there should be a page with pokemon that reside at Oak's laboratory and a section for Ash's pokemon and one for Gary's (if there are any known) and have this page link to it instead of listing all pokemon that Oak is keeping for Ash. If we don't split the page eventually it'll take an hour to quickly scroll to the bottom and yes I realize that at the top there are links to send you to the area you want quickly but there are also people in this world who dislike using those links. {{unsigned|Pokegail|20:11, 25 September 2017 (UTC)}}

== Picture ==

First off I realized that Pikachu was edited in Ash's picture when in reality he should be alone like this: http://www.pokebeach.com/news/1016/Ash-Pikachu-Sun-Moon-Anime.jpg
Can someone remove pikachu from the picture?

Also for when the 20th movie comes out should we change his picture to his movie appearance? {{unsigned|Theexploringgamer}}
:The image will not be replaced, because the movie is a standalone thing, whereas his current outfit will go on for a while after the movie airs, so there's no point in changing it for the movie and then changing it back afterwards when the next Sun and Moon episode airs. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 13:37, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

== Ash's Xy section ==

Don't you think there's a bit too much on Ash's xy section? I think it's a bit too long and detailed to the point where it spoils important parts of episodes or just that it has minor unnecessarily parts. I feel like it is like this with characters like Bonnie, Serena and xy in general {{unsigned|Mowahib}}
:Obviously so. I've been planning to make heavy, heavy trims once I've watched all of XY, but that may not happen for awhile. In the meantime, you're welcome to do it yourself. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 14:30, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

==Sun and Moon Ash Statement==
A friend brought this up to me earlier today and it has an official comment from the sound director on Twitter. So... uh... I'm going to mention this. http://satoshipediaeng.altervista.org/sun-moon-is-not-continuation-of-xyz-the-main-characters-are-completely-new-ash-and-pikachu/ [[User:Pikatwig|Pikatwig]] ([[User talk:Pikatwig|talk]]) 16:20, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
:That article doesn't make a lot of sense and seems like overly agitated ramblings. It's much, much more likely that the tweet is simply misinterpreted: "not a continuation of XYZ" just means that it's a new season, just like Best Wishes could be seen as "not a continuation of DP" and XY as "not a continuation of Best Wishes". And "a completely new Satoshi and Pikachu" is patently ridiculous to take literally; it's probably referring to his character design, or else is a metaphor for, again, starting fresh with a new season.
:Let me ask you this: if Sun & Moon Ash were really a new character who's not the same as Ash from previous seasons, then how would he have been able to refer to [[Ash's Tauros|his Tauros]] in [[SM001]]? It's that simple. It's the same Ash as ever, period. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:36, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
:: The phrasing is up for interpretation, they could've meant it's not a continuation of XYZ in tone (which sound is a huge part of), since XYZ was of course much darker and intense than SM is, and that Ash is different to his XYZ version because he's more lax than semi-serious as he was in XYZ.

::: While I'm (sadly) leaning towards this being possible (consider the 20th movie being a drastically altered retelling of the first few episodes, and that reboots in general are for some reason huge in the entertainment industry right now), the article also argues that the Best Wishes series is a separate continuity, which is definitely untrue.

I just found character artwork for the Sun and Moon series in a larger and higher quality. They are found on the Gulli (French TV channel) website. It also includes Ash without Pikachu.

== Possible M20 split? ==

Unlike the other movies, M20 is not filler. It's been said to take place in a different dimension than the main series. In other words, M20!Ash=/=MS!Ash. Should we split the page, so that all the information concerning M20!Ash does not contradict the main page. Another reason is that the two characters lived different lives, had different outfits, different companions, etc. We would no place to write the exploits of M20!Ash. It could be like what the wiki did when separating EToP!Ash from the main Ash page. [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 19:03, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

== Split ==

I disagree with splitting Ash's Pokémon from this page. I think listing them here is important. Most of his Pokémon are only links to their own pages, so don't take up much space anyway.

However, I do think it would be a good idea to split "Ash's temporary Pokémon" to a separate page, much like [[List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio]]. They do take up a lot of space, and don't have much relevance to Ash as a character. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 02:49, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
:I do believe that's [[#Split suggestion|the consensus that was reached above]], in case the reason you're making a new section is that you didn't see that one. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 04:30, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

== Ash's Buzzwole ==

It's currently listed under "Temporary pokémon", but it's the only pokémon in this category at the moment that Ash actually caught in a pokéball. Since Ash actually caught and then released Buzzwole it should be moved up to "Released Pokémon". The description of "Temporary pokémon" does not fit as Buzzwole is neither a wild pokémon Ash teamed up with nor belongs to another trainer. There's precedence for this in Beedrill, which Ash also actually caught in a pokéball, which is now in its own category above the one for "temporary pokémon". [[User:Mijzelffan|Mijzelffan]] ([[User talk:Mijzelffan|talk]]) 12:56, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

: I agree with this. Only major thing we'll have to do is make a page for Buzzwole. [[User:Super10ZX|Super10ZX]] ([[User talk:Super10ZX|talk]]) 13:02, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

: I think that case is the same of Seaking, catching in Johto. Ash doesn't use Buzzwole like the others Pokémon, just catch it. --[[User:Lockheedpryde|Lockheedpryde]] ([[User talk:Lockheedpryde|talk]]) 13:39, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

::Seaking has less going for it than Buzzwole. Seaking is caught as part of a game which has the rules to be released after, similarly to something like the [[Battle Bingo]]. It's even caught in an anime-only Lake Ball which seems to have a 100% catch rate and might not be an actual pokéball. No such arguments can be made for the Buzzwole however, which was caught as an ordinary wild pokémon in a legitimate pokéball. After catching it Ash even does his traditional "caught a pokémon" pose. [[User:Mijzelffan|Mijzelffan]] ([[User talk:Mijzelffan|talk]]) 13:59, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
:::Seaking was caught as part of a [[Seaking Catching Day|structured competition]] that requires Trainers to release their Seaking back into the Seaking's natural habitat afterward; Buzzwole is caught as part of a [[Ultra Guardians|structured team effort]] that requires members to release Ultra Beasts back into [[Ultra Space|the UBs' natural habitat]] afterward. I feel like they're much more similar than you're giving them credit for. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 17:01, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

Also, similar question. Why is Charjabug in Temporary section if it was caught and by the same episode gave to someone else like Beedrill?--[[User:Dominikololo|Dominikololo]] ([[User talk:Dominikololo|talk]]) 15:02, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

== Catching Poipole ==

Is it safe to say Ash will catch Poipole as his 5th Pokemon judging by the Intro Japanese Future Connection? like opening animation spoilers the capture of poipole

== SM055 ==

This paragraph was removed under the reasoning that Ash was not heavily focused on in [[SM055]].

: In ''[[SM055|The Professors' New Adventure!]]'', Nebby disappeared, leaving Ash feeling sorry for not able to thank it for its help. Later, Ash discovered that Professor Kukui and [[Professor Burnet]] had decided to get married. After learning they weren't planning to have a wedding, Ash and his classmates arranged a surprise wedding ceremony, with Ash acting as the ring bearer. During the reception, Lusamine, [[Wicke]] and Faba approached Ash and his friends, with Faba apologizing for his earlier actions. The three then invited Ash and his classmates to join an Ultra Beast response unit called the [[Ultra Guardians]], which they all agreed to. By the end of the ceremony, Ash saw Nebby flying through the sky and thanked it before Nebby disappeared.

I would disagree considering that joining the Ultra Guardians was a major plot point and lead-in to future episodes, and the Pokémon School students are directly involved in organising the wedding ceremony (in Ash's case, including waking up Professor Kukui and being the ring bearer). Also the Legendary Pokémon Ash was gifted by the Island Guardians for ten episodes (who helped with the rescue of Lusamine) leaving does seem pretty major regarding Ash and Nebby to me (that's not me saying to include EVERY capture, evolution, departure and hatching across the various regions in Ash's history section though). [[User:TardisTybort|TardisTybort]] ([[User talk:TardisTybort|talk]]) 23:33, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
:It's important to note that some pages, particularly Ash's here, can get very big very easily. The history should probably be pretty broad strokes. Take a look at the Advanced Generation section: that hardly references any specific episodes, and (...without being involved in the anime much) IMO that's probably a good idea for the whole history section. (DP and BW look alright too perhaps. OS, XY, and SM can probably use greater or lesser amounts of cleaning up or compressing.)
:Just glancing at what's above, I'd say that in particular the wedding may not be that important. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:53, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
:: I do in broad terms understand being more sparing with space and compressing when a character is around for over 5 years, never mind 20 like Ash. Although I'm not 100% sure about outright being vague with citing episodes, especially when the individual series span over a hundred episodes (or at least 3 seasons) each. At a minimum, I'd feel like mentioning "after badge X" or "after town Y" or "the Z league" and put in a more chronological order than I've seen ([https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Ash_Ketchum&type=revision&diff=2766416&oldid=2766415 for instance, this bit correcting how in XY, Ash's travels with Korrina come BEFORE the Summer Camp]).
:: Specifically regarding the events of the episode, though, I still defend what I said about Ash, Nebby and the Ultra Guardians for the reasons I already said, even if I get just for space reasons we don't need to blow-by-blow mention everything that's plot related from ''[[S21|Ultra Adventures]]'' (though off the top of my head, I think that would depend heavily on the anime character's page). [[User:TardisTybort|TardisTybort]] ([[User talk:TardisTybort|talk]]) 01:35, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
::: Maybe my issue is I just have a vague distinction in my head between compressing/simplifying/making something less run-on vs. burning it all down. [[User:TardisTybort|TardisTybort]] ([[User talk:TardisTybort|talk]]) 01:42, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't encourage "After X/Y/Z" one after another either, this isn't a grade schooler's report on how to make peanut butter and jelly. This should be a well considered, encyclopedic summary. The AG section really is a ''good'' overview. It reads very well.
::::The current SM section practically comes off more as a journal, with an episode title starting basically every paragraph. I understand that it may seem difficult since that's ongoing. It's still subpar; not what we should really want. ...Or, heck, I could be half wrong. Maybe we could try to only have a broad strokes overview of most of the previous/current episodes, but—as it is the ongoing season—perhaps we could try to go into some more specific detail for the latest significant episode (such as, say, Ultra Guardians); but even that should remain as limited as possible, not letting half a dozen episodes' worth of specifics build up at the end of the section. (...I'm not demanding that the SM section change. I'm not part of the anime enough to keep that in check all the time. I'm just emphasizing that there are better things we could do—or will need to do once the series is over, at the very least.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:58, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
::::: Been thinking about this, and I think while I understand the way the paragraph beginnings look may not be ideal or sufficiently encyclopedic, I'm not hugely in favour of them being unsourced in any way either (or only sourced as far as "in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}" and so forth, even though the anime more often than not changes regions long-term within the same series). Whether this is on Ash in SM or in already-completed series. I just took "in [episode whatever]" thing as a kind of inelegant stopgap. [[User:TardisTybort|TardisTybort]] ([[User talk:TardisTybort|talk]]) 11:42, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
Kind of want to hear more opinions in the community before making any decision (I've been editing here a month, and Tiddlywinks by their own admission isn't involved much with anime characters).

[[User:TardisTybort|TardisTybort]] ([[User talk:TardisTybort|talk]]) 19:18, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
:I would agree with Tiddlywinks on this one.

==SM061==
Why aren't we counting Buzzwole as a fully owned Ash Pokemon? it's with the ones like Pokemon he borrowed and yet he clearly caught it so why don't we have a page with "Ash's Buzzwole". Sure he only had it for 7 seconds but a catch is a catch and I think it should be under released and have a profile of its own. He got a Pokeball, threw it at the Pokemon and caught it. He even did his, I CAUGHT A POKEMON! putting it with random Pokes he's borrowed or made friends with is misleading IMO because he literally caught it[[User:Muur1234|Muur1234]] ([[User talk:Muur1234|talk]]) 03:04, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
:The same reason Seaking is under temporary and not released, he had it for less than an episode. It's not notable for its own article, regardless of it being an Ultra Beast.

:::The entire purpose of the Ultra Guardians is to catch and release Ultra Beasts back to their homeworlds. It was caught by Ash for the Ultra Guardians, not as a new addition to his personal team.

== Released Pokemon ==

As an Ultra Guardian, Ash has caught many ultra beasts that were afterwards released. Why are they not recorded in his released Pokémon section?

==In the anime==
[[File:Ruins of Abundance entrance anime.png|thumb|250px|The Ruins of Abundance in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
The Ruins of Abundance debuted in ''[[SM075|Some Kind of Laziness!]]'', where {{Ash}} and [[Acerola]] traveled there in order to meet {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Bulu}} and get it to help Ash in his training for his [[rematch]] with [[Nanu]]. The two found Tapu Bulu loafing around at the top of the ruins, initially too lazy to even help Ash. After being surprised by {{AP|Poipole}}, however, the [[Pokémon category|Land Spirit Pokémon]] finally got up and demonstrated its powers by planting several seeds and growing them into big trees in a matter of seconds. As [[Ash's Rowlet]] rested on one of the trees for a moment, it was struck by a sudden burst of power, causing it to learn {{m|Razor Leaf}} on the spot.

Soon after, it started to rain, and Ash and {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokémon}} started playing in the rain. Unfortunately, [[Ash's Lycanroc]] got dirty when the other Pokémon splashed mud on it, causing it to go berserk once again. However, Ash reminded Lycanroc of its time as a {{p|Rockruff}}, when it hadn't minded getting dirty at all. This trip down the memory lane was enough to snap Lycanroc out of its rage. The rain then passed, and Tapu Bulu surprised Ash by challenging him and Lycanroc to a battle. During the battle, Lycanroc was tossed into a pool of water, but emerged from it without going berserk, and eventually learned {{m|Stone Edge}}, much to Ash's pleasure. Tapu Bulu then stopped the battle and offered Ash and his Pokémon [[Oran Berry|Oran Berries]] from the trees, before going back to lazing off.

The ruins reappeared in ''[[SM077|Guiding an Awakening!]]'', where it served as the site of Ash's [[Island challenge|grand trial]] battle with Nanu. To Ash's surprise, Nanu informed him that he was only allowed to use one Pokémon against his three. After recovering from the initial shock, Ash accepted this condition and chose to use his Lycanroc for the battle. After Lycanroc had beaten two of Nanu's Pokémon, Tapu Bulu appeared above the battlefield and dropped down a [[Sitrus Berry]] for Lycanroc to recover its health. During the match against Nanu's last Pokémon, {{p|Persian}}, Lycanroc seemed to go berserk again, and Ash kept yelling at it to calm down, until Lycanroc unexpectedly tackled Ash, revealing that it was in perfect control of itself and was actually using its red-eyed state as a power boost. After countering Persian's {{m|Black Hole Eclipse}} with Lycanroc's {{m|Continental Crush}}, Ash had Lycanroc use {{m|Accelerock}}, defeating Persian and winning the grand trial for him. Nanu then considered giving Ash a [[Darkinium Z]] as a reward, but quickly changed his mind, stating that it wouldn't suit Ash, and instead chose to reward him with a [[Lycanium Z]].

In [[SM088]], Nanu was shown there, paying respects to {{p|Necrozma|the Blinding One}} as a part of the [[Manalo Festival]]. Acerola was also there, getting him to pray properly when she thought his first prayer was not good enough. Tapu Bulu was nearby, watching Nanu as he prayed.

The Ruins of Life first appeared in ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', in which {{Ash}}, {{ashcl}}, and {{an|Professor Kukui}} passed through them on their way to the site of Ash's [[Island challenge|grand trial]] with [[Olivia]]. Olivia, after paying her respects to {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Lele}} at the altar in the ruins, joined the group at the battlefield located right next to the site, where she and Ash had their grand trial battle. The battle ended in Ash's victory, earning him a [[Rockium Z]].

The ruins appeared again in ''[[SM037|Rising from the Ruins!]]''. After Ash's {{p|Rockruff}} was saved from drowning in a river by Olivia's {{p|Lycanroc}}, it and {{an|Gladion}}'s Lycanroc brought it to the Ruins of Life to be healed by Tapu Lele. When Ash, Olivia, and Professor Kukui arrived at the ruins while looking for Rockruff, Tapu Lele used {{m|Draining Kiss}} to absorb energy from the two Lycanroc and Ash, using it to heal Rockruff. Soon after, Rockruff evolved into a {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Lycanroc|Dusk Form}} {{AP|Lycanroc}} in the light of the setting {{wp|Green flash|green}} sun.

In [[SM088]], Olivia was shown there, paying respects to {{p|Necrozma|the Blinding One}} as a part of the [[Manalo Festival]]. Tapu Lele was nearby, watching Olivia as she prayed.

==In the manga==
[[File:Ruins of Life Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Ruins of Life in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
The Ruins of Life first appeared in [[PASM12]]. [[Gladion]] attacked [[Kiawe]] in order to get the latter to reveal where the ruins were located. After {{adv|Sun}} and {{adv|Moon}} found the injured Kiawe, they transported him to the ruins and healed his injuries. Fearing that Gladion would be too powerful to defeat by normal means, Kiawe taught Sun about [[Z-Move]]s and how to perform them. After some practice, Sun successfully mastered how to perform the pose for {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}.

Shortly after, the group was ambushed by Gladion, who exited the ruins with an unconscious {{p|Tapu Lele}} in hand. Due to injuries it sustained from a battle with a {{p|Xurkitree}} at [[Lush Jungle]], Tapu Lele had to rest to heal itself, preventing it from retaliating. Kiawe attempted to lend his [[Z-Ring]] for Sun to use against Gladion, but it was destroyed by Gladion's {{p|Type: Null}}. Although Gladion claimed Sun couldn't defeat him even with the Z-Move, [[Kahili]] appeared and noted that if he truly believed that statement, he wouldn't have bothered destroying the Z-Ring to begin with. With her golfing skills, Kahili delivered Sun his own Z-Ring created by [[Hala]].

Although Sun's {{adv|Dollar}}'s Inferno Overdrive didn't manage to defeat Type: Null in a single hit, it caused its confinement mask to start cracking. Gladion, fearing what would result from the mask breaking completely, chose to [[recall]] Type: Null and end the battle, even agreeing to leave Tapu Lele behind. After Sun had successfully delivered Tapu Lele the [[Mirage Berry]] that Moon had found for it, Tapu Lele challenged the group of Trainers to a battle. At first, none of their attacks seemed to even reach Tapu Lele, but after Dollar evolved into {{p|Torracat}} and managed to land at hit on it, Tapu Lele recognized their strength and left.

== Origins of Auras ==

It is mentioned in the [[Generation Vii]] games. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun]] and [[Pokémon Ultra Moon]], it is mentioned by the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] that auras and [[Z-crystals]] in fact originate from the [[Legendary Pokémon]] [[Necrozma]]. In the old days of [[Alola]], Necrozma, [[Solgaleo]] and [[Lunala]] brought light to other worlds by traversing [[Ultra Wormholes]]. However, the ancestors of the Ultra Recon Squad grew greedy and sought to control Necrozma's light. This caused Necrozma to go mad and lose a part of its body. This part is said to have rained down on Alola in the form of Z-crystals, Auras and [[Sparkling Stones]].

'''Ultra Crater''' (Japanese: '''ウルトラバレー''' ''Ultra Valley'') is the home of {{p|Celesteela}}, accessible primarily through some Rarity 2 and Rarity 3 warp holes in [[Ultra Warp Ride]], located more than several thousand {{wp|light-year}}s from Alola. It only appears in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Moon}}.

==Geography==
The Ultra Crater is actually a large expanse with several craters filled with a green substance. The land has what looks to be metal pipes growing as roots throughout the rock. A few red monoliths also stick out of the ground. Several geysers are also present shooting out steam. Several Celesteela are present in the ground and the world is frequented by earthquakes as Celesteela fly out of the ground and into the sky. A large mountainous expanse is pictured in the background. The sky is yellow possibly due to geothermal activity from the geysers.

==Trivia==
* Celesteela absorb energy from the ground in this world, as hinted by their depiction in this world and their Ultra Sun [[Pokédex]] entry. They also glow and launch themselves into the sky, subsequently causing earthquakes, as shown in the first encounter with Celesteela in this world.

'''Vast Poni Canyon''' (Japanese: '''ポニの{{tt|大峡谷|だいきょうこく}}''' ''Great Canyon of Poni'') is a location on [[Poni Island]] in [[Alola]]. It connects to the [[Ancient Poni Path]] in the south and to the [[Altar of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|SUS}}/[[Altar of the Moone]]{{sup/7|MUM}}. It is the location of a natural trial site, and in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], it is also where the player battles [[Hapu]] in her [[island challenge|grand trial]]{{sup/7|SM}} and meets [[Mina]], the sole [[Trial Captain|captain]] of Poni Island.

The area produces a [[special magnetic field]] that allows {{p|Magneton}}, {{p|Nosepass}}, and {{p|Charjabug}} to [[Evolution|evolve]] when [[level]]ed up here.

==Trial==
The trial site is located at the north end of the canyon. The trial begins once the player enters the trial site; they can leave the way they came in at any time, although this will reset the trial. If the player loses the battle against the [[Totem Pokémon]], when they attempt the trial again they will only need to battle the Totem Pokémon; however, if they then leave after this, the trial will be reset. The player cannot use [[Poké Ride|Charizard Glide]] during the trial.

This is a natural trial that has no [[Trial Captain]], said to be the first ever trial. A tablet at the entrance of the trial site explains the trial. The {{player}} proceeds forward through the trial site, being attacked by a wild {{p|Jangmo-o}} and a wild {{p|Hakamo-o}} that leap from up high as the player proceeds toward a Z-Crystal pedestal. If the player tries to proceed out of the passageway behind the pedestal, they will be forced to turn back due to the fear that the Totem Pokémon will attack them from behind. When the player attempts to take the Z-Crystal from the pedestal, they are unable to retrieve the [[Dragonium Z]] before being attacked by the trial's [[Totem Pokémon]], a {{p|Kommo-o}}.

In the battle with Totem Kommo-o, it will call {{p|Hakamo-o}}{{sup/7|SM}}/{{p|Noivern}}{{sup/7|USUM}} on its first turn, and call {{p|Scizor}} if its HP is below 2/3 (if the ally Hakamo-o{{sup/7|SM}}/Noivern{{sup/7|USUM}} has been defeated). If its HP drops below 2/3 before it has a chance to call an ally, it will call Scizor first, then call Hakamo-o{{sup/7|SM}}/Noivern{{sup/7|USUM}} at the first opportunity after Scizor has fainted. Once an ally is defeated, Totem Kommo-o cannot call it again.

After completing the trial, the player collects the Dragonium Z from the pedestal.

==In the anime==
[[File:Vast Poni Canyon anime.png|thumb|250px|Vast Poni Canyon in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Vast Poni Canyon first appeared in ''[[SM051|Family Determination!]]'', where {{an|Lillie}} and {{an|Gladion}} traveled through it on their way to the [[Altar of the Sunne]]. Along the way, Lillie constantly kept seeing obstacles in their way, such as thinking that two cliff-sides would have an invisible bridge in between them, and thinking up ways to solve said obstacles, only for her assumptions to be proven wrong by Gladion. In the final cave before reaching the altar, Lillie and Gladion came face to face with a {{pkmn2|Totem}} {{p|Kommo-o}} and its army of ally {{p|Jangmo-o}} and {{p|Hakamo-o}}. However, with Gladion {{a|RKS System|changing}} his {{p|Silvally}} into a {{type|Fairy}}, the Totem Pokémon was quickly defeated. Soon after, the two were joined by {{Ash}}, the rest of {{ashcl|Lillie's classmates}}, and [[Professor Kukui]].

The canyon reappeared in ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'', where Professor Kukui went back there to save [[Professor Burnet]] from the Jangmo-o and Hakamo-o. With his {{p|Braviary}}, Kukui was easily able to defeat the group of {{t|Dragon}}/{{t|Fighting}} Pokémon, allowing him to bring Burnet safely to the altar.

==Trivia==
* Before being battled, {{tc|Scientist}} Ikaika [[List of cross-generational references|mentions]] that his idol is [[Professor Birch]].
* The [[Poké Ride]] music does not play here.
* Despite {{p|Murkrow}} not being found here in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], a group of them still appears during the cutscene of [[Lillie]] crossing a bridge.

'''Aether Paradise''' (Japanese: '''エーテルパラダイス''' ''Aether Paradise'') is a {{wp|very large floating structure}} that serves as an artificial island located in the middle of the [[Alola]] [[region]], near [[Akala Island]]. It was created by the [[Aether Foundation]] to serve as a base for their research.

To protect the [[wild Pokémon]] being treated in the facility, a jamming signal prevents the use of empty [[Poké Ball]]s throughout the island. However, in gameplay, this only applies in the battle against {{p|Nihilego}}. The player can use Poké Balls in Trainer battles normally (although they will be blocked by the Trainers, as usual).

==In the games==
{{spoilers}}
===Pokémon Sun and Moon===
After assisting [[Faba]] in stopping two {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s from harassing a {{p|Slowpoke}} on [[Memorial Hill]], the branch chief invites the player to [[Hano Grand Resort]] after they finish their grand trial with [[Olivia]]. Upon arriving at the resort with [[Hau]], Faba will take them to Aether Paradise. The player and Hau are then introduced to [[Wicke]], who gives them a tour of the facility. At the top floor, the player meets the President, [[Lusamine]], who welcomes the two trial-goers and professes her love of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

The meeting is interrupted, however, by an [[Ultra Wormhole]], which produces {{p|Nihilego|an unidentified Pokémon}}. The player is prompted to battle it, which eventually ends in it fleeing. After being thanked by the Aether Foundation's staff, Hau and the player are ferried off to [[Malie City]] on [[Ula'ula Island]].

Later, after the player has defeated [[Team Skull]] at [[Shady House|their base]] in [[Po Town]], [[Lillie]] is revealed to have been taken away by [[Plumeria]]. [[Gladion]] later reveals that Lillie was taken to Aether Paradise, where the player, Hau, and Gladion start looking for her next. While raiding the facility, new details about {{p|Cosmog}}, the [[Ultra Beast]]s, and {{p|Type: Null}} are revealed. It also turns out that the Aether Foundation has been working together with Team Skull and sponsoring their criminal activities, forcing the player to battle their way through members of the evil team, including their Boss, [[Guzma]].

In the big mansion at the end of Aether Paradise, the player finds Lillie, who is facing Lusamine, her mother, about Cosmog's fate. The player, Lillie, Hau, and Gladion follow Lusamine into her secret trophy room, where Lusamine reveals how she is intending to use Cosmog's power to open Ultra Wormholes all across Alola and summon multiple Ultra Beasts through them. As wormholes start opening and Ultra Beasts start emerging all over Alola, the player engages Lusamine in a battle. After Lusamine is defeated, she uses a specially designed {{ball|Beast}} to capture the Ultra Beast that emerged through the wormhole she had created inside the room, before both she and Guzma disappear into the fading wormhole themselves.

The following day, Gladion tells the player about the {{p|Solgaleo|Legendary}} {{p|Lunala|Pokémon}} of Alola, which is said to be able to travel between worlds, and gives Lillie the [[Moon Flute]]{{sup/7|S}}/[[Sun Flute]]{{sup/7|M}}, one of the items required to summon the Legendary Pokémon. Afterwards, the player and Lillie head to [[Seafolk Village]] on [[Poni Island]].

===Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon===
In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, after the player has driven off the unidentified Pokémon that appeared from an Ultra Wormhole, [[Dulse]] and [[Zossie]]{{sup/7|US}}/[[Phyco]] and [[Soliera]]{{sup/7|UM}} of the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] will appear and explain that the Pokémon was an Ultra Beast. Lusamine informs the player and Hau that the Ultra Recon Squad has been working with the Aether Foundation, providing them with information about the Ultra Beasts. The Ultra Recon Squad members also tell how they came from a world from which {{p|Necrozma}} had stolen all of its natural light. Afterwards, the player and Hau depart for Ula'ula Island.

During the player, Hau, and Gladion's search for Lillie in Aether Paradise, the player will encounter the Ultra Recon Squad again after defeating Guzma. After defeating them, the player will encounter Lusamine and Lillie and follow them to Lusamine's trophy room along with Gladion and Hau, where Lusamine explains that she intends to travel to Ultra Space and defeat Necrozma in order to keep the Alola region and its Pokémon safe from it. For this purpose, she needed Cosmog's power to open Ultra Wormholes. Although she makes clear that she hates Ultra Wormholes with every fiber of her being, them being what took [[Mohn|her husband]] away from her, but she's still willing to go through one in order to protect Alola. Because of Gladion and Lillie's objections, Lusamine challenges the player to a battle, intending to show everyone she's capable of dealing with Necrozma. Despite being defeated, Lusamine still chooses to ignore her children, forcing Cosmog to open a wormhole which both she and Guzma disappear into.

After Lusamine's departure, the Ultra Recon Squad berate her selfish behavior, and tell everyone that the way to their world, [[Ultra Megalopolis]], where Necrozma resides, is by using the power of the Legendary Pokémon of the sun{{sup/7|US}}/moon{{sup/7|UM}}, which can appear at [[Altar of the Sunne|the]] [[Altar of the Moone|altar]] on Poni Island. The next day, Gladion gives Lillie the Moon Flute{{sup/7|US}}/Sun Flute{{sup/7|UM}}, one of the items required to summon said Legendary Pokémon. Following this, Gladion takes the player and Lillie to Poni Island.

After the player has become the {{pkmn|Champion}}, Aether Paradise is invaded by [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] in the middle of a live news broadcast. Using the power of an Ultra Wormhole, they transform Lusamine's mansion into [[Team Rocket's Castle]], wherein they settle their base of actions. Lusamine tries to stop them, but ends up getting taken hostage. The player and Lillie head to the castle, intending to save Lusamine. On the way, they discover that Faba had actually assisted Team Rainbow Rocket in their takeover of the facility, intending to use their success to advance his own career. After the player and Lillie have defeated Faba and an {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}} in a [[Multi Battle]], they enter the castle. Within the castle, the player must defeat various {{cat|villainous team leaders}} summoned through Ultra Wormholes in order to advance further. After the player has defeated [[Giovanni]], the leader of Team Rainbow Rocket, [[Colress]] uses his technology to restore the mansion back to its normal state, sending everyone back to the worlds they originally came from.

Once the player has defeated Gladion in a [[Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense|Title Defense]] battle at the {{al|Pokémon League}}, Lusamine's husband, [[Mohn]], will appear in the entrance area. Due to suffering from amnesia as a result of going through an Ultra Wormhole, Mohn is unable to remember his marriage with Lusamine, which she chooses to not remind him of, simply being happy to see that Mohn is enjoying his life of running [[Poké Pelago]].

==Places of interest==
===2F: Conservation area===
During the player's first visit, [[Lusamine]] is in the garden here. During the player's meeting with Lusamine, {{p|Nihilego|an unidentified Ultra Beast}} appears, which the player must battle. In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, after the player has become the {{pkmn|Champion}}, [[Gladion]] will be here to give the player a {{p|Type: Null}} and all of {{p|Silvally}}'s [[memory]] drives.

===1F: Entrance===
The entrance has two service counters, one of which houses a [[PC]] and a healing spot in the form of an {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}}. This floor also provides the player access to the exterior portions of the facility, with one entrance to the front and one entrance to the back.

The back door is locked until the player defeats [[Faba]] and an Aether Foundation Employee in a [[Multi Battle]], which can only be done after reading the notes in Secret Lab B. The player is not permitted to go out the front door until they battle Lusamine in the mansion.

In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the player can buy {{ball|Beast}}s from the top rightmost Employee behind the desks near the entrance for {{pdollar}}1,000 apiece after defeating {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Ultra Necrozma}}.

===B1F: Docks===
The ferry stop for Aether Paradise is located on the western side. The player can take the ferry to [[Heahea City]] as soon as they can visit the ferry stop. The player can take the ferry to [[Hau'oli City]] and [[Malie City]] once they visit [[Ula'ula Island]]. The player can take the ferry to [[Seafolk Village]] once they visit [[Poni Island]].

After completing [[Nanu]]'s grand trial, but before battling Lusamine, the ferry is not present. Instead, an Aether Foundation Employee stands out front of Gladion's Team Skull ship, which is moored on the east side, and will take the player to Malie City.

===B2F: Lab area===
The Lab area contains two laboratories, Secret Lab A and Secret Lab B. Secret Lab A contains secret files about the creation of Type: Null, as well as [[Faba]]'s personal files, while Secret Lab B contains information about {{p|Cosmog}} and the [[Ultra Beast]]s. During the Sun and Moon post-game, [[Wicke]] can be found at Secret Lab B, providing the player with information about the Ultra Beasts they've {{pkmn2|caught}}.
In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the entrance to the hallway is locked before defeating Faba at 1F.

==In the anime==
[[File:Aether Paradise anime.png|thumb|250px|Aether Paradise in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Aether Paradise debuted in ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]''. It reappeared in ''[[SM046|Deceiving Appearances!]]'', where [[Lusamine]] invited {{Ash}} and {{ashcl}} to visit the facility. However, due to her being constantly busy with her work, {{an|Lillie}} ended up working as a guide for her classmates instead. While touring around the conservation area, the group met [[Professor Burnet]] and got into trouble with a runaway {{p|Ditto}}, which used its {{m|transform}}ing capabilities to fool them until it was finally caught.

While Ash and his friends were dealing with Ditto, {{TRT}}, who had been hired to work as {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee|Employees}} at the facility by [[Faba]], kept trying to catch [[Nebby]], and eventually ended up accidentally finding secret documents about {{p|Type: Null}} and the [[Ultra Beast]]s from Faba's personal laboratory.

It appeared in ''[[SM047|A Masked Warning!]]'' during a flashback, where Gladion saw Lillie getting attacked by a {{p|Nihilego}}. It appeared again in ''[[SM048|Night of a Thousand Poses!]]'', where Lusamine was seen making a video phone call to Lillie from her office.

In ''[[SM049|Mission: Total Recall!]]'', Ash and Lillie were {{m|teleport}}ed into the Aether Paradise Lab area by Nebby. Faba, afraid that Lillie could be regaining her memories of the Nihilego attack and thus jeopardize his career, took her and attempted to erase her memories again with his {{p|Hypno}}. However, his plans were foiled by the appearance of Ash and [[Gladion]]. Although Ash was subdued by Faba's Hypno, Gladion was able to save Lillie when his {{p|Type: Null}} broke its confinement mask and became {{p|Silvally}}, then proceeding to defeat Faba's Pokémon. Admits of all this, Lillie managed to recover her remaining suppressed memories, allowing her to completely get over her fear of touching Pokémon.

In ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'', Faba tricked Nebby into teleporting him into the Lab area, where he used a device to trap it and started using its power to open an Ultra Wormhole. Although Ash, Lillie, Gladion, and [[Lusamine]] appeared to stop him and free Nebby, the wormhole was still opened, allowing a Nihilego to pass through it. Lusamine, Gladion, and Ash attempted to battle against it, but it proved to be too powerful for their Pokémon to handle. The Ultra Beast then attempted to take Lillie with it, but even though Gladion tried to protect her, Lusamine ended up pushing Gladion aside at the last moment, causing her to get taken into the Ultra Wormhole by Nihilego instead, much to Lillie's horror.

It officially debuted in [[PASM13]], where an Aether Foundation Employee recorded footage for another commercial with the assistance of several Alolan people. Afterward, the Employee was greeted by Lusamine, who looked forward to seeing the commercial when it was completed.

[[PASM15|Later]], {{adv|Moon}}, [[Professor Kukui]], and [[Professor Burnet]] were taken to Aether Paradise after they were found unconscious on Professor Kukui's yacht after being attacked by a wild {{p|Bruxish}}. There, they met [[Faba]] and [[Wicke]], who explained what happened and offered to give a tour of the place.

==Blurb==

After a breakthrough, Ash is back at the Snowbelle City Gym for a rematch with Wulfric—and this time, things are quite different! Wulfric challenges Ash to show him a fiery battle, and Ash certainly delivers, as his Pikachu and Talonflame take down the Gym Leader’s Bergmite and Avalugg before the exciting final face-off.

It’s Greninja versus Abomasnow…and then it’s Ash-Greninja versus Mega Abomasnow, as Wulfric reveals an unexpected Key Stone! Even in the face of such a challenge, Ash-Greninja rises to the occasion, and Ash wins his final Gym badge and qualifies for the Kalos League!

==Plot==
The episode opens recounting events of {{Ash}} and {{AP|Greninja}} from the previous two episodes. Ash returns to the [[Snowbelle Gym]] for a rematch. Inside the gym, {{an|Serena}} to Ash in a worried voice, but Ash responds by convincing her and the others that he will definitely win this time. Inside the gym, [[Wulfric]] is eager to battle Ash for a rematch, only to be stopped by the apprentice because he had not explained the rules yet. Wulfric convinces his apprentice that it's okay, as Ash had a battle earlier and would know the rules.

After the apprentice begins the battle, Wulfric sends out {{p|Bergmite}} as his first Pokémon. At first Ash becomes a little confused over Wulfric's choice, but quickly sends {{AP|Pikachu}} as his first Pokémon. The fight starts with Pikachu using {{m|Electro Ball}} which is easily dodged by Bergmite by skating on the ice battlefield, as Ash expected. Bergmite responds with {{m|Icy Wind}}, which Pikachu manages to dodge, but the cold air created by the wind numbs his lower body. Ash calls out for a {{m|Quick Attack}}, but Pikachu's speed gets reduced because of effect of Icy Wind and is easily dodged. Pikachu instead retaliates with {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which scores a direct hit. Wulfric is surprised to see that Pikachu is still able to keep up with Bergmite's speed and calls out his secret move, {{m|Sharpen}}, which encases Bergmite in a crystal of ice and raises its attack stat. Bergmite then uses {{m|Rapid Spin}}. Though Pikachu tries to dodge, Bergmite scores a direct hit. Suddenly, Ash is struck with inspiration, and tells Pikachu to run around the battlefield, which warms him back up and melts the ice on his lower body. Wulfric tries to stop Pikachu by calling out Rapid Spin, which is countered by Pikachu's Quick Attack, followed by an {{m|Iron Tail}} which knocks out Bergmite.

Wulfric sends out {{p|Avalugg}} as his second Pokémon. Pikachu starts by scoring a direct hit with Thunderbolt, only to be stopped by Avalugg's {{m|Avalanche}} counterattack. Pikachu starts skating on ice to dodge any further attacks, but is followed by Avalugg's {{m|Gyro Ball}}. Pikachu uses Iron Tail to create a hole on the battlefield to trap Avalugg's Gyro Ball. The trap works, but Wulfric and Avalugg counter with {{m|Stone Edge}}. Even though Pikachu tries to destroy the rock spires, he is finally hit and is knocked out of the battle.

Ash sends out {{AP|Talonflame}} as his second Pokémon. Before the battle continues, Wulfric notices a newfound spark in Talonflame's eyes. Ash and Talonflame start with {{m|Flame Charge}}, landing a direct hit. Avalugg retaliates with Stone Edge, which chases down Talonflame and causes it to crash into the [[super-effective]] move. Talonflame responds with a direct hit from {{m|Steel Wing}}, digging into Avalugg's flat top as it strikes. Avalugg attacks with Avalanche, which sends Talonflame into a free fall, but Talonflame recovers and counters with Flame Charge. The intense fire and smoke from Flame Charge briefly engulfs Avalugg, and as it disperses, Avalugg is shown to be knocked out.

Wulfric sends out {{p|Abomasnow}} as his last Pokémon. Like last time, Abomasnow summons a hailstorm due to its {{a|Snow Warning}} Ability, which begins eating at Talonflame's stamina. Talonflame tries to open the battle with Steel Wing, but is intercepted by Abomasnow's {{m|Wood Hammer}} instead. It retaliates with Flame Charge, but Abomasnow's {{m|Ice Shard}} chase down Talonflame and stop it again. Abomasnow finishes Talonflame with another Wood Hammer, knocking Talonflame out.

Ash sends out Greninja as his last Pokémon against Abomasnow. Greninja opens with two successive {{m|Aerial Ace}}s followed by two {{m|Water Shuriken}}s. After that, it successfully stops Abomasnow's {{m|Energy Ball}} with {{m|Cut}}. Coming back to its side of the arena, Greninja flinches from the pain cause from the hail. Abomasnow tries to strike with Wood Hammer, but is stopped when Greninja freezes itself in ice. Breaking out of the icy shield, Ash and Greninja decide to activate Ash-Greninja form and gain the upper hand. Wulfric immediately notices the differences in Greninja and its trainer, to which Ash proclaims they've become even stronger.

Ash-Greninja launches back into battle with a series of Aerial Ace attacks. Abomasnow tries to fight back with Wood Hammer, but is stopped by Ash-Greninja's Cut, which has now manifested itself a pair of knives formed with water, similar to Water Shuriken. Ash-Greninja then follows up with a giant Water Shuriken. Impressed and backed into a corner, Wulfric reveals a [[Key Stone]] embedded in his locket, and Mega Evolves his Abomasnow.

Ash-Greninja attacks with another Water Suriken, but Mega Abomasnow's {{m|Ice Punch}} freezes and shatters it. Mega Abomasnow follows up with Ice Shard, which strikes Ash-Greninja. Ash and Ash-Greninja combine {{m|Double Team}} and Aerial Ace, attacking Mega Abomasnow in droves, but Mega Abomasnow knocks the clones away with Wood Hammer and strikes Ash-Greninja. starts to get upper hand in battle. Mega Abomasnow launches another series of Ice Shards, but Ash-Greninja strikes them down with its enhanced Cut. As Ash-Greninja approaches, Mega Abomasnow counters with Ice Punch, freezing Ash-Greninja's water knives. Just as Mega Abomasnow attempted to finish the battle with an extremely powerful Wood Hammer, Ash made Ash-Greninja use frozen water knives to skate on the icy battlefield, greatly enhancing its mobility, and allowing it to dodge Wood Hammer and Ice Shard. Ash-Greninja distracts Wulfric with a giant Water Shuriken aimed at Mega Abomasnow's feet, allowing Ash-Greninja to finish the fight with another series of Aerial Aces. Ash-Greninja reverts to normal, and Ash and his friends let out a cheer.

Ash calls out all his Pokémon to celebrate his hard-earned victory, as Serena, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}} come down to congratulate him. Wulfric proudly presents Ash with the {{badge|Iceberg}}, allowing him to enter the Kalos League. At night outside the Pokemon Center, Ash vows to train hard to win the Kalos League with his Pokémon.

==Trivia==
[[File:Title Card XY Ash V2.png|200px|thumb|The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode]]
* [[Poké TV]]: "Poké Love TV" Focusing on {{p|Abomasnow}}.
* This episode is the first time since ''[[AG031|Just One of the Geysers]]'' where {{Ash}} uses a different line-up of Pokémon in a [[rematch]] against a [[Gym Leader]]. In this case, he substitutes his {{AP|Hawlucha}} for {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* The tactic used by Ash where {{AP|Greninja}} uses the frozen Cut "knives" as ice skates to maneuver around the field and avoid {{m|Ice Shard}} is similar to the move used by [[Ash's Chimchar]] in ''[[DP127|Sliding Into Seventh!]]'', during Ash's [[Snowpoint Gym]] battle with [[Candice]], where it used an ice shard to skate around the field.
** Similarly, both instances were used against an Abomasnow, and both times were used to avoid Ice Shard and {{m|Wood Hammer}}.
* A remix of {{OBP|XY&Z|song}} is used as an insert song in this episode when Greninja transforms into Ash-Greninja.
** An instrumental version of XY&Z is used during the battle between Ash-Greninja and {{me|Abomasnow}}.
* [[Clemont's Dedenne]], Ash, {{an|Bonnie}}, and {{an|Clemont}} narrate the preview for the [[XY123|next episode]].
** At the end of the preview, Ash and Bonnie say the catchphrase "Everyone, keep Pokémon!", with Bonnie saying the "keep" part and Ash saying the rest, instead of Ash saying his "Everyone, get Pokémon!" phrase.
* Despite it having existed since [[Generation I]], this episode marks the anime debut of {{m|Sharpen}}.
* When Greninja is first brought into the battle, its pose matches its battle pose from the games.
* This is the final episode of the {{series|XY}} in which the [[Team Rocket trio]] doesn't appear.

===Errors===
* {{an|Bonnie}} is missing her ponytail on multiple occasions.
** Once when Ash and {{ashfr}} arrive at the gym as the doors open.
*** In the same shot, the space between {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{an|Serena}}'s head is colored the same as Pikachu, making it seem as if his head were larger.
** As Ash and his friends walk into the Gym, and also when [[Wulfric]] speaks to Ash before the battle starts.
** After [[Ash's Greninja]] transforms into Ash-Greninja.
* Throughout the episode, [[Clemont's Dedenne]] appears to be much larger than usual.
* When Ash-Greninja is about to hit Abomasnow with Aerial Ace, the tip of its giant shuriken is cream instead of light blue.
** At the same point, the stripes on Ash-Greninja's head have their colours reversed.
* When Greninja uses Cut and Abomasnow uses Wood Hammer, the giant water shuriken is missing when Greninja does a backflip.
** The giant shuriken is missing again when Ash-Greninja is in the air after Mega Abomasnow destroys Water Shuriken. However, this may have been because it just used Water Shuriken and it takes some time to regenerate.
* When Greninja begins to use Cut against Mega Abomasnow's {{m|Ice Punch}} the triangle near its right eye is blue instead of white.
** This happens again for a split second, before Greninja lands to the floor after Greninja's Cut gets frozen by Ice Punch.
* After Greninja dodges Mega Abomasnow's {{m|Wood Hammer}} and is in the air, the bottom part of its hair is grey instead of black.
** At the same point, Ash-Greninja's eyelid is blue, like it is as a normal Greninja, instead of black.
* As Greninja uses {{m|Aerial Ace}} at the end of the battle, there is one moment where the white bump on Greninja's right arm is cream.
** There are also several frames where they are blue rather than white.
* In the Dutch dub, after Abomasnow beats Talonflame, the referee says Aboma''flame'' is the winner, instead of Abomasnow, mixing up the names of the two Pokémon.
* On the {{pmin|Sweden|Swedish}} [[Pokémon TV]], this episode was erroneously given its {{pmin|the Netherlands|Dutch}} name.

Hi! I'm just a guy who loves Pokémon. I mostly look at the Anime, Games and TCG stuff. Manga? Go bother someone else. I ain't got time for that.

[[File:Hau'oli City artwork.png|thumb|250px|Hau'oli City]]
'''Hau'oli City''' (Japanese: '''ハウオリシティ''' ''Hau'oli City'') is a coastal city situated on [[Melemele Island]] of the [[Alola]] region. It is the main location of the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version]]. It has a Beachfront, a Shopping District, and a Marina, and is known as Alola's largest city.

In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, an apocalyptic instance of Hau'oli City from an alternate dimension known as the [[Ultra Ruin]] can be visited via [[Ultra Warp Ride]].

==Places of interest==
===Move Deleter===
{{main|Move Deleter}}
The Move Deleter is located in the city's [[Pokémon Center]]. He is the only Move Deleter in the [[Alola]] region. Although not a hugely important place to visit, the Move Deleter is helpful for deleting unwanted moves.

===Shopping District===
There are a number of gates around the city that lead into and out of patches filled with [[tall grass]]. Prior to defeating [[Ilima]], there are a number of gates which the player cannot use due to wet paint.

====Alola Photo Club====
{{main|Alola Photo Club}}
The Alola Photo Club only appears in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]. It allows the player to take photos with their Pokémon.

====Alola Tourist Bureau====
The Alola Tourist Bureau is located in the Shopping District, next to the apparel shop. It exhibits a promotional video of the Alola region and hosts plenty of local goods and souvenirs. The receptionist on the right installs the Poké Finder on the Rotom Pokédex when the player speaks to her for the first time. The receptionist on the left conducts the [[Pokémon Lottery Corner#Generation VII|Loto-ID]].

====Apparel shop====
The apparel shop is located to the west of the Tourist Bureau. It sells [[fashion item]]s, offering tops, bottoms, socks, and hats.

====Mall====
The mall is located east of the Pokémon Center. Initially, its door is shuttered and the {{player}} cannot enter. After the player passes [[Hala]]'s [[island challenge|grand trial]], it becomes accessible.

In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, after the player completes [[Olivia]]'s grand trial, they can watch a {{p|Bewear}} costume show that teaches children the dangers of Bewear's immense strength. However, the show is quickly interrupted by a real Bewear, who scares the other viewers before attacking the player. If they successfully defeat or capture it, the girl who narrated the show will give the player a [[Max Potion]] in gratitude.

=====Gracidea=====
The mall store Gracidea is named after the [[Gracidea]] flower, which a clerk will give to the player as a free gift. The store only sells the most expensive [[fashion item]]s. It offers tops, shoes, bags, and eyewear, as well as hats and hair accessories for female players.

=====Antiquities of the Ages=====
On the second level, a shop on the far right side will sell various [[Legendary artifacts]] and [[Plate]]s. While the Legendary artifacts can be purchased as soon as the player can access the mall, the Plates cannot be purchased until after defeating [[Island Kahuna]] [[Nanu]]. Only one of each item may be purchased.

=====Move Tutors=====
To the left of Antiquities of the Ages, there is a booth with two [[Move Tutor]]s. The Move Tutor on the right will teach {{m|Grass Pledge}}, {{m|Fire Pledge}}, or {{m|Water Pledge}} to any evolutionary form of [[starter Pokémon]], as well as {{p|Pansage}}, {{p|Pansear}}, {{p|Panpour}}, and their evolutions. In addition, in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} only, Grass Pledge can also be taught to {{p|Silvally}}. The Move Tutor on the left will teach {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}}, or {{m|Hydro Cannon}} to the fully evolved form of starter Pokémon. Both Move Tutors will teach these moves only if the Pokémon's friendship is as high as possible.

|}
|}

=====Battle Buffet=====
{{main|Battle Buffet}}
The Battle Buffet is located in the center of the mall's upper level. To dine, the player will have to pay a fee of {{PDollar}}1,200. The player is given 10 turns of battle to get as many dishes possible, battling for each one. At the end, the waitress will assess the player's satisfaction and give them an item depending on that assessment.

The player can only dine at the Battle Buffet once a day.

====Ilima's house====
[[Ilima]] lives in Hau'oli City. If the player enters his room on the second floor after defeating [[Island Kahuna]] [[Hala]] in the {{isl|Melemele}} grand trial{{sup/7|SM}} or becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}{{sup/7|USUM}}, he will bring the player to the {{al|Trainers' School}} on {{rt|1|Alola}} and battle against the player there. He will then bring the player back to his room and give them an [[Everstone]].

In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, if the player revisits Ilima after defeating him, he will give the player [[Ilima's Normalium Z|a piece of Normalium Z]] to be delivered to Totem's Den in [[Verdant Cavern]]. Bringing the [[Z-Crystal]] to Totem's Den will trigger a [[rematch]] with Verdant Cavern's [[Totem Pokémon]], Totem [[Raticate]].

====Hau'oli City Hall====
The Hau'oli City Hall is located in the Shopping District, south of the local Pokémon Center. Its motto is "Serving the city's every need!". Clerks working here deal with the process of moving to the region, amongst other things.

In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, after clearing [[Hala]]'s grand trial, the player will encounter a woman arguing with her grandfather, {{tc|Gentleman}} Reginald, over her fiancé. The granddaughter will ask the player to battle Reginald to help her prove a point. After defeating him, the player will receive a [[Nugget]].

====Hau'oli Police Station====
The Hau'oli Police Station is located in the Shopping District, on the way to the Marina. There is a police vehicle parked in its backyard.

After defeating [[Olivia]] in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the player can assist [[Ilima]] in the interrogation of three {{wild|Hypno}}, one of which knocked out the {{p|Machamp}} that guards his house and stole the [[Nugget]] hidden in his room. After picking one of the Hypno, that Hypno will attack the player, who they must defeat or capture. Each Hypno has a different moveset that could be related to the crime. After the battle, Ilima will solve the mystery, and give the player a [[Big Nugget]] for their trouble.

====Malasada shop====
{{main|Malasada}}
The city's malasada shop is located in the Shopping District, on the way to the Marina. It is famous for its malasadas, which are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

The left attendant sells Sweet Malasada for {{PDollar}}200, which is immediately fed to a Pokémon and increases its [[Affection]]. The right attendant sells the Bag item [[Big Malasada]] for {{PDollar}}350.

{{shop|Right attendant}}
{{shoprow|{{shopitem|Big Malasada|350}}}}

===Marina===
====Melemele Ferry Terminal====
The Melemele Ferry Terminal is located in the Marina.

The player can take the ferry to [[Heahea City]] once they meet [[Olivia]] at [[Akala Island]]. The player can take the ferry to [[Aether Paradise]] once they visit [[Ula'ula Island]]. The player can take the ferry to [[Seafolk Village]] once they visit [[Poni Island]]. After completing [[Nanu]]'s grand trial, but before battling [[Lusamine]] at Aether Paradise, the ferry is undergoing maintenance and cannot be taken.

In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, the [[Vending Machine]] is initially out of order. In Pokémon Sun and Moon, it is fixed after completing Hala's grand trial; in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Rotom from the player's [[Rotom Pokédex]] fixes it after completing Hala's grand trial.

In the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version]], ferries cannot be boarded and the Vending Machine is sold out.

==In the manga==
[[File:Hau'oli City Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Hau'oli City in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Hau'oli City first appeared in ''[[PASM01|The Grand Entrance and Delivery Boy Sun]]''. {{adv|Moon}} traveled to Hau'oli City from [[Sinnoh]] to deliver a {{p|Rotom}} to [[Professor Kukui]]. While on the Beachfront, Moon met {{adv|Sun}}, a boy who was doing part-time work throwing wild {{p|Pyukumuku}} back into the sea, his goal being to amass one million dollars by any means possible.

After agreeing to help deliver Rotom, Sun transported Moon through Hau'oli City, where she met some of the city's residents.

==Trivia==
*Inside the mall, a sightseer standing next to a wall of posters will jokingly comment that there is no switch hidden under one of them. This is a [[List of cross-generational references|reference]] to the [[Celadon Game Corner|Rocket Game Corner]] in [[Kanto]], where a switch opening an entrance to the [[Rocket Hideout]] can be found hidden behind a poster in the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.

Megalo Tower

'''Megalo Tower''' (Japanese: '''メガロタワー''' ''Megalo Tower'') is a large tower in [[Ultra Space]]. Located in the center of [[Ultra Megalopolis]], it is where the player confronts [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Necrozma|Ultra]] {{p|Necrozma}} during the climax of {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.

After defeating Necrozma, [[Phyco]] and [[Soliera]] in Ultra Sun or [[Dulse]] and [[Zossie]] in Ultra Moon will arrive with a {{p|Poipole}} in tow, telling them that it is interested in joining them. The player can accept or refuse; in the latter case, they can always return to Ultra Megalopolis to pick it up again.

As Megalo Tower is part of Ultra Space, if any {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Cubone}} or {{p|Exeggcute}} is evolved here, it will instead evolve into {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Marowak}} or {{p|Exeggutor}}'s original Kantonian form instead of their [[Regional variant|Alolan form]].

It only appears in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

==Geography==

Megalo Tower is a tower in [[Ultra Megalopolis]] which emits blinding light. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun]] and [[Pokémon Ultra Moon]], it is where the [[Player]] faces [[Necrozma]] at the top, as [[Ultra Necrozma]], after absorbing [[Nebby]] as [[Solgaleo]]{{sup/7|US}}/[[Lunala]]{{sup/7|UM}}. The landscape is mostly dark and black.

==Pokémon==
Ultra Necrozma appears here, but it cannot be {{pkmn2|caught}}. It has an aura that gives it +1 [[Statistic#Stat modifiers|stage]] to its {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}}.

== Radiant Sun/Full Moon ==

Why do we have the Radiant Sun and Full Moon forms on Solgaleo/Lunala's pages and the form differences page? When I added Reshiram's and Zekrom's active forms to their pages it was removed because they aren't counted in the Pokédex like Xerneas's neutral mode, but yet Radiant Sun and Full Moon forms are also not counted in the Pokédex, yet are on their pages. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 15:06, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
:In Solgaleo/Lunala's case, [http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/ the official site] called them forms. (Whether that should be OK may be arguable.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:05, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
::Ah, that makes sense. Thanks. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 16:12, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
:::Adding on, there are some Pokémon who have form differences recognized by the Pokédex but yet don't have their forms in the box at the top of the page (eg Furfrou). Should they be added? --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 14:28, 6 March 2017 (UTC)
::::Rotom is basically the high end of what we're willing to accomodate in the infobox. If there is a ''strongly'' compelling reason in the future, we might consider more, but something like Furfrou is simply impractical and relatively trivial—little benefit to worry about including it. It's fine with a gallery. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 14:39, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

== Your help ==

..was unexpected in both "I didn't expect you to help" and "Why exactly did you do [[Special:Diff/2604502|that]]" kind of way. So, thanks for the former, but for the latter, was that more an "oh my Nesci now just get over that class=expandable thing its bad nobody wants that", or rather an "i still have javascript disabled so i must've cleaned up and nothing more ♪♫♪♫"? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:25, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
:It took me a bit to parse your actual question here...but yes, I don't enable Javascript if I don't need it, and all I saw was apparently pointless HTML tags in the diff. I might've said about as much except I try not to sound too much like an ass (because sometimes people just don't know), so instead of writing something like, "That's weird yo", I just simplified the reason very, very basically.
:That said, the first table is '''super''' short, collapsing it seems a bit pointless. In fact, actually reading that one, IMO it'd be better to just make those nested bullet points instead of a whole table (like [[Experience#Gain formula]]); or just nest the technical note about Gen I-II specifically. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 13:56, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
::Um, sorry for being cryptic, I thought you'd remember we already talked about that. Yo.
::Thanks for the nested bullet points idea, sounds good, I'll try to see how that might work out. But for the ''other'' table, you accidently removed the expandable part (more or less), there wasn't a hidden anti-javascript agenda or something, right? (I know that HTML tags look weird—it's a workaround because for some reason, using * will always push everything down to the next line; so I'd prefer to restore that.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 15:04, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
:::Hiding the ''entire'' table isn't generally the smart thing in any case. If you're going to collapse a table, you can generally just do it right on the table in question. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:23, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

== Z-Moves ==

I made a template at [[User:Celadonkey/Template:Z-Moves]] to assist with accessibility for Z-Move pages, similar to the "Variations of _" on a lot of move pages. I was wondering if it's ok for me to mainspace it and put it on all the Z-Move pages. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 18:05, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
:Lemme just ask, do you care if I (fairly) radically change the style and then mainspace it? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:30, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
::No, I don't mind. Go ahead! --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 01:38, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
:::It looks awesome, thanks man. But I really think that having an MS for the species Z-Moves would be beneficial. Is there any way we can still implement it? --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 14:55, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
::::They are pretty. But they make that part relatively big too. I don't think it's so bad since it's all summarized on the [[Z-Move]] page too already. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 14:59, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

==Aether House==
If you don't like my edit, find some other way to deal with '''misleading''' information that could give people the wrong idea of when Porygon could be collect.

==RE:Moving pages==
Can you move the page [[Gracidea (Sinnoh)]] to [[Gracidea Garden]]. After duscussion and waiting a long time, other users agreed and no one opposed the move. See [[Talk:Gracidea (Sinnoh)]] for further details. Or can you contact an Editorial Board member, as said on the [[Bulbapedia:Editorial Board]] page. [[User:Jeangabin666|Jeangabin666]] ([[User talk:Jeangabin666|talk]]) 19:18, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

== Verity Lakefront ==

You changed [[Verity Lakefront]]'s text box back to a default text box after I changed it to a route text box. It is stated in the [[list of routes]] on Bulbapedia that the [[Sinnoh]] lakefronts are routes. It even says on the [[lakefront]] page of Bulbapedia that the lakefronts are routes. The three lakefronts are routes, thus deserving a route text box. --[[User:RedHailfire|RedHailfire]] ([[User talk:RedHailfire|talk]]) 22:07, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
:"List of routes" is not the criteria for deciding whether a location should have a "route" infobox. I'd be hard pressed to define exactly what those criteria are because there ''are'' a few places that are not numbered routes where we use a route infobox (and I'm OK with those), but if you want me to, I can try to figure out what the specifics are/should be. For now, though, please trust me that the lakefronts are regular locations, not routes. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:24, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
::The [[lakefront]] page also states that these areas are [[route]]s. Also, if these lakefronts don't get route infoboxes, then why does [[Spring Path]] get a route infobox? The lakefronts are much more like routes, for most of the lakefronts actually have [[tall grass]]. Spring Path is such an obscure location. --[[User:RedHailfire|RedHailfire]] ([[User talk:RedHailfire|talk]]) 22:33, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
:::To attempt some loose/theoretical explanations, "Spring '''Path'''" closely suggests something like a route, so it was perhaps easy to just put Route infobox there. A "lakefront" sounds more like a simple location, however.
:::This is not strictly justification, but, again, explanation for the current state of things (i.e., a basic answer to your "why"). The presence or absence of tall grass also doesn't really make or break a route, because plenty of locations (like the lakes themselves) have grass, and some routes don't (e.g., [[Kalos Route 1]]).

== Which page to put name locations on ==

Hey there! You recently reverted an edit I did to the Gen II base stats structure page, citing that information of default names for Pokémon doesn't fit there (presumably as it's not part of the 32-byte structure). So as not to get in an edit war, I figure we'll hash it out before doing anything. I'd argue it ''does'' fit on the base stats structure page, as it - as all the other properties on the page - is something common to and used for all Pokémon of the species. I'd go as far as to say the page shouldn't be about one single data structure (which the page title doesn't really imply, after all), but rather the how base stats of the Pokémon are stored in general.

Putting it on the character encoding page, as you suggested, makes no sense at all: the name data has nothing to do with the encoding of the characters at all, and isn't used in any related contexts. Seeing as the name data is used when creating a Pokémon and on summary screens, just like the rest of the base statistics... I'd say that's the best place. Not putting it anywhere isn't an option either, as that'd simply be withholding potentially useful information, which we of course don't want to do. What do you think? [[User:LpSamuelm|LpSamuelm]] ([[User talk:LpSamuelm|talk]]) 23:27, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
:Like you say: the list of names is very plainly a '''very''' different thing from the list of base stats. You're grasping at reasons to shoehorn that list into the page, when the only truly logical approach is to limit it to a single, readily identifiable structure. Based on what you're saying, we may as well have Gen III's base stats structure and Pokedex data structures on the same page; they're at least based on the same indices, which is ''basically'' equivalent to your argument for the list of names.
:The best thing you could really argue for would perhaps be a ''different'' page altogether, one that could reasonably mention all the data relating to species. That seems like a bit of a weird idea to me, though, so I'm very unsure how such a page would be made, personally.
:Anyway, I don't see the base stats structure page as being an appropriate place for it at all. If you have any better suggestions, I'm all ears. I'm basically okay with just saying it fits nowhere and removing it altogether if you think that's best, too.

::Sorry, I don't at all follow your extrapolation here. Not sure where the "like you say" part comes from, either - I'm not "grasping", it's quite logical. Here's an a bit more structured summary of how and why they strongly relate:

::* The "base stats" for a Pokémon is data that's used in any combination of a few ways. Not all of them have to be true for a point of data to be considered "base stats", as is apparent from their inclusion in the main structure. The ways are:
::** '''Informing choices when constructing a Pokémon''' (wild held item, gender ratio)
::** '''Basic, unchanging values for how the Pokémon acts''' (types, base stats, egg cycles, dimensions of sprite, growth rate, egg groups, TM/HM flags, catch rate, Exp. yield)
::** '''Basic, unchanging values used on the Pokémon's summary screen''' (types, base stats, dimensions of sprite)
::** And yes, even '''used in the species's Pokédex entry''': the sprite dimensions byte.
::* In comparison, the default name of a Pokémon is used in the following ways:
::** '''Informing choices when constructing a Pokémon''' - all wild Pokémon get their names from the list.
::** '''Basic, unchanging value for how the Pokémon acts''' - if the Pokémon's name differs from the species, it is considered nicknamed, which has an effect when the Pokémon was received in a trade.
::** '''Basic, unchanging value displayed on the Pokémon's summary screen''' - the species name is simply displayed under the nickname.
::** In addition, it is just like the sprite dimension byte '''used in the species's Pokédex entry'''.

::That's 4/4 of the purposes filled.

::It's not really possible to, as you did, extrapolate my argument to combining the Pokédex data (which I was looking at just earlier today for Gen II; should make a nice new page) page with the base stats structure page, as the Pokédex data has no actual impact on the Pokémon. If you edit the Pokédex data, all Pokémon of that species look and act the same, with no difference even to the summary screen. Of course, as I mentioned, "removing it altogether" is ''not an option'' - skipping out on providing real information, even if it were to prevent meta-level "shoehorning" (which I really do contest), goes against the very purpose of a wiki.

:::You're talking about base stats as a very abstract concept.
:::The page [[Pokémon base stats data structure in Generation II]] is explicitly about a specific structure, about a contiguous set of data (a list) with entries corresponding to different Pokemon.
:::The list of names is a WHOLLY different list. It's not logical to conflate both of those things on a page called "Pokémon base stats data structure". It's TWO structures.

:::: They're two different contiguous data masses in memory, sure, but they're used in the same contexts. I say "Pokémon base stats data structure" can just as well mean "the structure of Pokémon base stats" (which may well include "the data is structured as part of these two parts of memory") as it can, as you assume, "this specific contiguous structure type in memory". Very logical, all in all.
:::: Really - the page in question is the absolute best fit for information on this, hands-down.

Because as someone who does, I can tell you, the page title just is NOT interpretable the way you want it to be.

Frankly, the fact that you choose to ask despite saying "the answer would seem obvious" tells me the entire point of the question is to be condescending, which... well, I'm not going to dignify that with further argument.
::::::Now that that's out of the way: I'm definitely qualified to say that yes, it is interpretable that way. Obviously it is, since I'm interpreting that way. It seems to be subjective, though, since you don't agree - you're taking it as a "data structure" (as what you'd call a struct in C, for example), but seeing as the page is called "Pokémon base stats data structure" and not "'''The''' Pokémon base stats data structure", it may just as well be taken as "the structure of Pokémon base stats data".

== Genderless vs. gender unknown ==

I can't find hide nor hair of the phrase "gender unknown" on any of our pages in regard to what you mentioned.

Either way, we should be consistent with one term or the other, not a haphazard mishmash of whichever people feel like.

==Ether==
Hey! Sorry, I was meant to put it in the edit summary, but Ether is the Japanese name and she's called Cherie in English.

== Move infobox and "flags" ==

Hey there! I believe you're still the flag officer around here? As you know, they're not exactly all perfectly accurate (as in, they're ''annoyingly'' deserted: half of our infoboxes have <code>mirrormove</code> incorrect, for example, but then there are none of the GenV+ "flags" I pasted on the talk of [[User:Tiddlywinks/Template:MoveInfobox|what I remember you were doing]]). I'm currently doing some related work there (which involves compiling lists of incorrect "flags"), and the more I do, the more I think this needs to be reformed rather radically. Before I go ahead, I want to ask: Do you have an opinion/plan on how to handle "flags" in infoboxes? Assuming there isn't something in the works already, could we (not necessarily just the two of us, but Bulbapedia as a whole) discuss (and eventually settle on) how to handle them?

== About the underlevelled Pokemon page ==

I saw that the pictures have been removed and I completely understand why they have been removed. But although an odd question but is SpriteIt still active on Bulbapedia? Because his most recent contributions and activity from what I'm aware of dates back to 2016 at latest. I'm asking as I'm not sure if I will be able to contact SpriteIt regarding his page for permission to have the template modified. If you know any way to contact him it would be great if you could tell me how so I can ask about the change in template. Although preferably it would make the page look better with pictures, if not having them is what he wishes than I'm completely fine either way.[[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]] ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 14:36, 7 May 2017 (UTC)

::Cheers for the advice from my talk page.
::Fair enough about the table being too busy for a picture of the Pokemon's artwork.
::Also would it be better to remove the "Picture" column since there are multiple methods of obtaining an underlevelled species of a Pokemon along with the fact that it never was really used to begin with?
::Also if the "Picture" column is removed could I bring back the "Artwork" column?

:::I don't really know how Picture would be used.

== Accuracy vs. evasion ==

I had believed you knew this all along, way before I realized it, but now I'm better safe than sorry: As accuracy and evasion stat stages are combined to ''one'' multiplier (Gen III onward), nothing can modify one but not the other. Or, in other words, "boosts its evasion by 25%" is another way to say "decreases accuracy of attacks targeted at it by 4/5". It's shorter and probably more intuitive/natural, but it doesn't allow us to be consistent, nor to link to one of the three consistently (and I understood that you preferred <code><nowiki>{{stat|accuracy}}</nowiki></code>). (It's also a little less precise technically/mathematically, I guess, but I think that really shouldn't matter.) More or less, I believe we (and UPC) are using "accuracy" (or <code><nowiki>{{stat|accuracy}}</nowiki></code>) as the generic term that encompasses both "accuracy"s and evasion. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:20, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
:I don't like leaving these things implied and ripe for misunderstanding, so I take it you're responding to the edits to {{a|Snow Cloak}}.
:Second: you're talking about stat stages, but Snow Cloak doesn't affect stages, it's just a multiplier. ...Perhaps you understand this, but that's not clear to me, and it did (plainly) confuse me.
:You do have a point that accuracy and evasion reduce to the same, ill-defined "stat" after stat stages are applied. (If we go by [http://upcarchive.playker.info/0/upokecenter/content/pokemon-diamond-version-pearl-version-and-platinum-version-accuracy-check.html UPC for DPPt], all multipliers come only after stat stages are resolved.) I.e., at a technical level, you can't really say whether a multiplier affects accuracy or evasion.
:So I think how we should handle it is that, in any cases where a multiplier nominally "affects" the user of a move, that affects their accuracy (like {{a|Hustle}} or {{a|Compound Eyes}}), while a multiplier that nominally affects a Pokemon that is the target of a move (like {{a|Snow Cloak}} or {{m|Gravity}}) affects evasion. This may be what the descriptions for those Abilities try to follow, but we may have gotten too concerned with the wrong things in some places. (If there are any categories for these sorts of multipliers, the question of what's right for ''them'' becomes interesting. Likewise, the multipliers that are split between accuracy and evasion at [[Statistic#Stat modifiers]] become equally interesting.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:13, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
::I can't tell what your first sentence means, but my post was motivated by [[Special:Diff/2637785|you asking for proof it affects something other than accuracy]] (which could have been either an educational, rhethorical statement; or you being unaware that that's not really possible).
::I believe I understand the difference between stat stages and the rest. What I wanted to make you aware of is: Accuracy and evasion have ''a single, combined table lookup'' (unlike say Atk and Def).
::For things that do affect stat stages ({{m|Double Team}} etc.), we obviously need to refer to that stat whose stages are affected. For everything else, I guess we have some freedom, and I believe we're currently consistently saying "increases/decreases <code><nowiki>{{stat|accuracy}}</nowiki></code> of moves [against it] by factor/percentage" (see {{a|Tangled Feet}}'s edit history).
::Both ways of saying it have their drawbacks (as I said above). I guess it's a matter of philosphy/ideology, and of where we want to link to. I believe either way is okay. It's just that whenever UPC etc. say "multiplies accuracy of attacks against it by 4/5", we're free to reword it to "boosts evasion by 25%" if we desire, because it's really the exact same thing.
::(As a side note: for Gravity and {{weather|fog}}, we can say both "affects accuracy/users" or "affects evasion/targets" even ideologically. Official wording from Gravity's effect apparently is neutral: "Moves are more likely to hit for five turns.") [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:06, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
:::(I can't tell how the stages are really related to anything in particular here... So I'm just going to plow ahead until it becomes clear that I did miss something.)
:::I think "where the multiplier comes from" is an eminently reasonable distinction. If it comes from the target's "condition" (like Tangled Feet), that's their "evasion" that's affected; if it comes from the attacker, it's "accuracy".
:::Gravity and fog are more field-wide effects, but I think we still can and ''should'' consider them '''logically'''. As far as Gravity, it should be pretty clear logically that gravity hampers a target's evasion. Fog should likewise logically affect an attacker's ability to ''aim'' (their accuracy).

== Teleport ==

Hey, could you maybe elaborate on why [[Special:Diff/2641360|my edit]] apparently didn't adress my concern, or shifted the problem? (I guess you realized: my concern is that it sounds like "wild mon" takes precedence over Mean Look etc.) I've looked at my screen for minutes, but I really can't seem to find it. I'd like to "fix" it, which really... doesn't make sense when I'd be trying to just repeat my earlier edit!? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 15:34, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
:I might have actually missed or mistaken the "wild" part at the beginning. It was still densely worded, though. It's kind of annoying, because if this were the effect when the move was intro'd, you'd say "Teleport causes the user to flee. It can fail depending on the user's level and because of trapping moves." without having to worry about, "Wait, you can't say 'always'." Being a change like this makes it hard to do smoothly (because I would have said the original way was basically easiest/fine).

== Quotes ==

I saw Looker having a separate quote page ([[Looker/Quotes]]) and wonders on the full requirements of having to create a new page? I was editing Lillie's quotes and the whole thing took to 97.1KB. As for Looker, because since it's from many games, so I assume the full requirements are that the quotes must be very long and the character must have appeared in several games in order for a new page to be created? Also would "Upon being defeated" and "After battle" makes more sense? Or if "After battle" could mean even if you lost? Thirdly, if I were to create my own "User:Ruixiang95/..." on the ghosts appearing in the Pokémon games, which I doubt will be mainspaced at all, will that be a breach of the website's policy? Thanks! — '''[[User:Ruixiang95|Ruixiang]][[User talk:Ruixiang95|95]]''' 11:08, 25 May 2017 (UTC), Edited: 11:20, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
:There aren't specific requirements for splitting quotes, but you're right, it probably shouldn't be split if they're only in one game or generation.
:I almost like "After battle", but unfortunately it probably is a problem that it sounds like it applies even if you lost the battle.

== Template questions ==

Hey, I've got a few questions regarding templates:
* Are we expected to avoid images in (high-use?) templates? Is there any (server-related) issues?
* Do you know whether the software evaluates all branches of ifs, and whatever will not display due to "display:none"? Or, in other words, is there a reason to nest ifs of subsets within each other (e.g., <code>if a<100 then ((if a<50 then x) y)</code> rather than <code>if a<50 then x; if a<100 then y</code>)?
* You seemed to be eager to wrap what currently is "display:none" entirely in ifs. I believe wiki syntax does not provide that functionality to wrap entire tables in ifs (expression error for me), but it may be possible with HTML. Is there a particular reason to try that (seeing how Wikipedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conditional_tables#Plan_C suggests] using "display:none")? (Possibly the above point!?)
Of course, it's related to [[User:Nescientist/Template:MoveInfobox|this]] (in particular, the damage category icons and the contest stats). Thanks in advance! [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:46, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
:Abstract issues don't always work well for me... What makes you apprehensive about images?
:Similar to above... I'm going to go with, I don't know, what's your issue?
:Firstly, Wikipedia doesn't exactly "suggest" display:none, it has it as an option (which perhaps notably comes ''after'' wrapping content in #if). I suggest it because display:none very explicitly ''hides'' content. Take a look at [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Cacophony_(Ability)]]: perhaps ''every'' species page links there because that's a default value in the Pokemon infobox, but it's hidden—it's still ''part of the page'', it's just not ''visible''. This is just, in general, a less than ideal problem (preferably only "valid" links would show up), but more to the point, there's cases where it can very explicitly cover something else you want to find. Suppose there's a parameter that, if set, shows a line with a link to "page", and if it's not set, that's just hidden. Based on the output, you might imagine you could check What links here for "page" to see where the parameter is set, but in truth, it wouldn't be any use to you; and it should be. I couldn't say for what, but I'm fairly sure I ran into just that problem for something in the move infobox. (FWIW as well, instead of very obliquely referring to "You seemed to be eager", being very specific about exactly where you get something like that from can only help. At least, that's true for me. Even if I did—eventually—realize what you were talking about here.)
:[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 13:41, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
::It's because very few templates seem to make use of images/icons. For example, [[User:MisterE13/Villain templates|these]] look so much better than the current templates IMO, and also nobody seems to have added the category icons to the move infoboxes although they existed way before the template was designed, and that made me wonder whether that's due to images (in templates) stressing servers or anything. I [[User talk:Nescientist/Template:MoveInfobox|included them]], but if use of images were a reason to reject template proposals, that'd be good to know (in general/"abstract").
::Thanks, I didn't think of "What links here", I just thought of categories, and none were added in that "display:none" parts. But thanks for pointing it out—{{m|Floral Healing}}, for example, currently links to [[Appeal]], and it really shouldn't. So I shall try to avoid "display:none", even if that involves some HTML workaround I guess. (Correct?)
::Example is the contest data within the move infobox; if a move needs no "Contest Spectacular", it needs neither "Super Contests" nor "Contests" and so on. If the software was smart and only evaluated what it really needs to (much like most "normal" programming languages/parsers), in most cases, it would need to evaluate less parser functions if those were nested, it wouldn't need to query some color templates, etc. So, I shall try to have them nested I guess. (At least I can't see any real drawback, now that I need to wrap entire tables instead of simply using "display:none" anyway.)

:::I don't know if there's ''no'' case where images would be a problem, but I don't know how. In this particular case, if those icons ''would'' be any sort of problem, they'd be very simple to remove, so that certainly wouldn't be grounds to reject everything.
:::You don't need to use HTML—and shouldn't, really. We're a wiki. We can expect people to know/learn wikicode. HTML can only complicate things. Just stick with wikicode.

{{indent}} Haha, of course I don't want you to challenge something I would eventually say. But what I mean when I say "it's a term" is that, well, it is an official term, official terminology, something that should be bolded and translated on the page; you didn't un-bold or doubt it was more than a pure descriptive sequence of words. (And with that German, I didn't mean to say anything about capitalization. It was an argument why it is a term, and not merely a pure descriptor.)

I know that it's technically an assumption to say "Z-Move Effect" is correctly capitalized this way. But in my opinion, it's actually way more of an assumption to say it should be "Z-Move effect" (because I guess terms are typically capitalized, because "Z-Move effect" requires the two additional assumptions I mentioned before, and because "Z-Move effect" just doesn't seem to be used anywhere official). If you really insist and disagree that it's a term, I guess we can agree that we disagree, and you would obviously have the right to make use of your Junior Adminship to overrule me if you wish—but then you should also de-bold and remove it from "In other languages". (But I honestly think I made rather strong arguments.)

But saying both "it's a term" and having it lowercase seems almost contradictory to me; I really hope that we will be able to adjust the article accordingly. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 20:57, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
:I don't have any particular opinion either way on this, but let me just point out that there are plenty of "terms" that we translate and use bold but that are officially lowercase.

Try to avoid jumping to conclusions. Or at very least, if your "unfair treatment" is really your concern, be earnest about that (for example, pointing out politely and reasonably the people you think also warrant some sort of messsge); if all you're gonna do is drawl sarcasm at me, you're not putting yourself in any good light.

==Thoughts==
I know you might not care too much about this, but I wanted to ask about the Mystery Dungeon item pages since we've discussed it (a little) {{DL|User talk:Tiddlywinks/Archive 3|before}}. I've made a page for [[User:Wowy/Throwing item|throwing items]] where I've split the page into each game. The advantage is that the template doesn't become too complex and ugly, and you can write information specific to each game (e.g. IQ skills). Another advantage is that the item "stick" changed its name to "wooden spike" (both English and japanese) (I am assuming they have the same effect with just a different name). So sorting it out by generation would mean that the 'same' item isn't duplicated twice. The disadvantage is that you can't compare the changes that have been made over the different games, and also when someone searches "Geo pebble", I think the search would only land on the page and not on the exact item. I tried to make a page for throwing item because it's relatively sparse, but I don't want spend time making any changes to big pages such as the [[Wonder Orb]] page before approval. What are your thoughts? --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 08:11, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
:Sorry I haven't been able to figure out what to say sooner...
:Can you give any examples of where you think an item gets complex besides regarding buy/sell prices? (I don't really know what you mean when you mention IQ skills above either, and I don't think I see anything about that on your user page.) For the most part, it seems to me like, since the template is meant to handle multiple games, it seems best to use it like that (aside from how messy the prices get). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:01, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
::A slow response is better than no response! And I also don't know what the best way is, and it's fine if we end up leaving it as it is. But if you take Wonder Orb as an example of a list getting complex, some orbs are available in all the games (e.g. Slumber Orb), some are available only in a RBTDS (e.g. Silence Orb), and some only in GTI (e.g. Notice Orb, well I haven't found it yet in SMD and there are no reports of it online) etc. Like the throwing item, some items also changed names (e.g. Foe-Evolution Orb --> Enemy Evolve Orb). So for anyone playing just one of the games, the list gets confusing as to which one is relevant to your game or not, until you open each table. I guess you could argue that the page is just a list of all the orbs in all the games, but maybe the page should strive to do more than that (maybe?).
::When I mentioned the IQ skills, what I meant was when you open the "In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team" tab, then you can see a mention of IQ skills since that info is relevant to that game, while when you open the "In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity" tab, you can see a mention of Team Skills since that info is relevant to that game. So you can put information relevant to that game under each tab rather than having it all at the top of the page.
::Whatever happens, thanks for you thoughts! I'll keep them in mind. --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 23:54, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
:::I've been advised that a compromise could be grouping games. Like sections for "Only in [RB]", "In [RB and TDS]", "In all games", etc as required. That way you'd still have only one template for each item.
:::I don't know what to say about ones like Foe-Evolution Orb --> Enemy Evolve Orb except that it's arguably working alright as it is now on Wonder Orb, with just separate templates for each name. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:52, 11 July 2017 (UTC)
::::Ok, that sounds good in theory, but it ends up with too many arbitrary sections: "Only in [RB]", "[In RB and TDS]", "[In RB, TDS and GTI]", "[Only in TDS]", "[Only in GTI]", "[Only in SMD]", "[In all games]", and would separate similar items that should be grouped together (e.g. Stick, Silver Spike and Iron Thorn are obviously counterparts with different strength, but Silver Spike would come under "All games", while Stick and Iron Thorn would be classed as "In RB, TDS and GTI"). If that's the case, I'm more than happy to keep the MD item pages as it is now rather than make that change (it also doesn't solve the buy/sell price issue).
::::On another note, should Foe-Evolution Orb and Enemy Evolve Orb be listed together on the same template since the Japanese names are the same, while Stick & Wooden Spike, Iron Thorn & Iron Spike be listed separately since they have different Japanese names and so are distinct items?
::::And thank you, I appreciate your responses! :) --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 01:28, 11 July 2017 (UTC)
:::::Are those arc/straight categories a strong in-game distinction, beyond just ''how they behave'' when they're used? If not (and possibly even if they are), then you ''could'' forego those sections. There's only three arcing items, I think it would be fine then to just talk about the different behaviors and highlight the three arcing items at the top of the page or something.
:::::Strictly speaking... Yeah, the Foe/Enemy Evolution Orb should be in a single template, basically like {{DL|Status condition healing item|Paralyze Heal}}. On the other hand...that unfortunately brings about a similar sort of problem as you mentioned before, since the closed template doesn't display the note about the previous name.

I had believed it was rude of you to just undo the entire edit when I thought you seemed to be adamant to keep that section clean, and wanted me to possibly move it elsewhere. However, if your problem was not ''where'' it was added, but ''that'' it was added at all, I believe it's just as rude. By now, it should be clear that I (currently) disagree. Either way, please feel free to outline your rationale.

:I'm going to be honest... The argument you're attempting to make here simply makes no sense to me. You're thinking something that's just totally different than what I'm thinking.
:The situation is very simple. I saw you added something to Magikarp a earlier that didn't belong. You reverted my reversion and called my reversion rude. That makes no sense, and your simple reversion completely ignored the problem I pointed out. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:08, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
::Honesty is always good. I'm in.
::In my opinion, a simple undoing of an edit (that is within the MoS) is almost always some kind of rude if that undoing is based on personal opinion only. Even moreso when the edit is not one word, but an edit the editor obviously spent time and thought to it. (I thought about it for several days, and it took more than half an hour to finally implement my edit.)
::...And it's more rude (and very striking) when the editor/edit attempted to solve an issue. Your reversion didn't address the problem at all. It just reinstalled it.
::What problem did you want to address in your edit comment? I understood that you wanted to make me (or everyone) aware of the fact that this should be about the species the article is about, not describe a game. I am aware of that, it's just that the game ''is'' about that species. The game is literally ''called'' the species—I can't do anything about that. What I did was focus on Magikarp appearing there (and I pointed that out in my reversion).

:::I have to say... (With, for what it's worth, no offense intended.) It doesn't matter how much time you spend on an edit, if someone undoes that for what ''they'' think is a good reason, your investment/disappointment in ''no way'' justifies you automatically labeling it rude. Just because you put effort into something doesn't give it some magical protection.
:::You say I didn't resolve the problem you were concerned about. Fun fact: I don't really know Magikarp Jump. My intent was that someone who does should address that concern in a better way than your edit did. (This all comes around to: you're invested in this thing and feeling hurt about it. I won't say you can't be, but don't lay it all on other people. They don't have to have the same investment as you.)
:::You state the problem exactly, but declined to try to address it at all. There's a whole article for details of the game. Pumpkinking's edit addresses Magikarp's appearance about as deeply as (as near as I can tell) it needs to be.
:::And there's already an explicit place for sprites. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:59, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
::::I am in absolutely no way feeling hurt or something about ''my'' edit being removed. Simply removing that much value created focused at solving a problem (one we even agree on), is bad—regardless of who created that value. (And I didn't say that value gave it protection, or used it as an argument to "automatically" call it rude.) In short: Removing the entire thing entirely is certainly worse than what I did.
::::I know Magikarp Jump a bit. And/but I don't quite understand what makes you think my edit was bad. If you (have read my explanation above and) specified, I could try to address your concern. (Again, I focused on Magikarp ''in the game'', not the game itself.)

== RE: Encounter Edits ==

As I've been playing through the series gen by gen recently, I've noticed that the more recent gens are full of misinformation on encounters. Diamond/Pearl had a few apparent hiccups, but I'm running into them all over the place in Black/White. Serebii's database is even worse, listing pokemon in completely incorrect routes and areas. It's clear that the encounter rates thus far have all gone on people's experiences and nothing else. I'm just adding mine to the pool--and mind you, I'm changing nothing unless it's been hours upon hours and I'm absolutely, 100% sure.

If you want to dig up ROM data, by all means, feel free. It has not been done with this encounter tables. I don't have the time or interest in doing it, either--again, I'm just adding my contribution to improve the tables. Even if it won't make them 100% perfect, it will be a step closer to perfect accuracy. If you want to make the tables LESS accurate by reverting my changes, I can't stop you; I went out of my way to improve the data, but if that generous act is not appreciated, I'm fine not bothering.

Re: your discussion with Nescientist and the staff ruling that came out of it: Can you please have a word with FinnishPokeFan95?

== Insignificant minor edits ==

(I have asked on SnorlaxMonster's talk page but gotten no replies, so...)

:Your implication is that it should be stopped. If it was absolutely all someone was focused on, I personally ''would'' ask them to find more substantial edits to make (and have in some cases in the past). While at this particular moment it seems like GrammarFreak01 has done relatively a lot of that sort of edit in the past day, that doesn't seem to consistently be the case so strongly previously.

:::Let's also consider each of those sets I mentioned above: would it be okay to start talking about only the Fairy-types, Normal-types, etc among each of those groups?
:::What I'm getting at is that it's a lot of stuff, and all that just balloons. More than anything, it's hard enough keeping track of two broad categories (overall and by type)... (I'm pretty sure that when people started updating the best/worst trivia to account for Gen VII, they didn't pay any attention to the Pokemon that used to be "highest" or "lowest" and had now lost that status, thereby leaving old/incorrect trivia on a number of pages.) We don't need to worry about updating stats for a dozen different categories.
:::Even if you want to say, "Well, I think these four or five or so categories are okay and we won't allow ''anything'' else", it can be ''very'' hard to '''remember''' whether what someone added is actually in one of those categories, without referring to somewhere where it would have been stated out. Beyond that, it's not like there's a simple way to "agree" on which X categories we should have, either.

== some questions ==

hi. i'm not sure if you are the correct person to ask, but may i know how often does the admins reviews the articles in [[:Category:Candidates_for_moving]], and what is the procedure for moving of pages for admins? I suggested the renaming of [[List of Pokémon by New Unova Pokédex number]] to [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number (Black 2 and White 2)]] around 1.5 years ago. However, it had not been moved despite the hoenn and alola dex being moved to the format of "List of Pokémon by XXX Pokédex number (game)]]". I was told that admins will decide on the move after discussions, but most of the articles in [[:Category:Candidates_for_moving]] have no discussion at all, or the discussion only consist of the person who suggested it. Those that do have replies won't even last 5 people commenting on it. And the number of talk pages with the admins involved in the discussion is very minimum. It seems that
most of the pages in that category are just sitting there for months with no signs of any work to move or remove them from the page. May i have some enlightenment about the procedure, such as if the admins actually have their own private discussions about those pages, just that we won't know about it? i previously bring this up [[Talk:List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Sun and Moon)#rename|
on this talk page too]]. thank you for reading. If this is not the correct platform, please let me know the proper channel to enquire about it. Thank you again. -[[User:Pokeant|Pokeant]] ([[User talk:Pokeant|talk]]) 07:52, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

== My confusion in regards to Grassy Terrain... ==

If Grassy Terrain is in effect, '''unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig''' or Dive, the power of Bulldoze, Earthquake, and Magnitude is halved (even if the user or the target is not grounded).

So basically, if I use Earthquake on something that used Dig, does it do a total of x1 damage (×1/2 from Grassy Terrain, ×2 from using Dig), or is Grassy Terrain's effect ignored when the Pokémon uses Dig, thus ×2? Does my question make sense?[[User:Unowninator|¿¡Unowninator?!]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 22:38, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
:The "×1/2 from Grassy Terrain" that you mention, you're supposing that comes from the sentence you've posted at the start? If so, that very sentence says that that 1/2 only is in effect IF the target is NOT using a move such as Dig. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:47, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

== Necrozma DM DW ==

A Trainer can only carry six Pokémon at a time and Ash left more than six (Unfezant, Oshawott, Pignite, Snivy, Scraggy, Leavanny, Palpitoad, Boldore, Krookodile, and Charizard) at Oak's Laboratory.

== Value of truth ==

I don't want to derail other discussions, so I'm taking this here. I'm alarmed by the attitude you've seemed to have on talk pages such as [[Talk:Team Skull Grunt (Trainer class)]] and [[Talk:Pokémon Communication Center]] in which you apparently don't think it's necessary to correct something false if it's something you consider minor. Phrases like "who really cares" and "what exactly is hurt" seem, in my mind, to be an effort to discourage people from trying to present the most truthful possible information. In my mind, these are plain-as-day cases of inarguably false information (niche cases, granted, but inarguably false nonetheless), and you seem actively interested in discouraging the correction of them.

For that reason, I wanted to directly ask: am I misinterpreting you, or do you really not think truth is an important value for Bulbapedia? If the latter, is that also the official staff position? If so, I'm not sure I can continue to feel comfortable participating in an encyclopedia if it isn't trying to be true. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:21, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
:You're taking it much too dramatically.
:I'm just going to address the specific cases directly.
:I do not believe that there's really any point to trying to say on any page about grunts that they technically have a "Trainer class" that is their team name. (Note that I am not saying we should have "Team Skull Grunt (Trainer class)". I am not, either, saying we shouldn't, though. I'm personally leaving it for further comment, because, in short, things are ''alright'' as they are, I'm fine just waiting and focusing my own attention on other things.) The only place I think it would be worth communicating that there is no "Team Skull Grunt" Trainer class would be if we had a technical page that touched on the Trainer data in the ROM or something. The argument I made that you express concern about above was against your suggestion to merge grunts' info into team TC pages—that's all.
:I do not consider an implication that the GS Ball is only available in Crystal's VC version a falsehood at all. You cannot obtain the GS Ball solely by playing Crystal's cartridge versions. There is no falsehood communicated. That said, I also ''explicitly'' did not say that only listing the VC item was the only option. I suppose I must admit, I tried to phrase my whole comment about the GS Ball relatively delicately; so let me attempt to make clear here that what I meant was: I do not think it is right for us to mention (or worry about) the cartridge GS Ball in the template, and I '''disfavor''' some extra note nearby (but it is still an '''option'''). To put it another way, the intended point was, noting the cartridge version in the template is more trouble than it's worth, but there are still solutions that we could '''add''' to the original revision before your original attempt to "fix" it. (Let's say that at least half as strongly as you are against only mentioning VC—which, again, is not the only option I entertain—I'm that strongly against any significant change to "Received from an attendant while attempting to exit after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] ([[Virtual Console]] only)" as your recent edit has done; it only hurts what is already perfectly useful.)

== "Trade" in Item Locations ==

For games where you can only obtain items through Trade, do we put down it as [[Trade]] or ''[[Trade]]''? FinnishPokéFan92 has been changing the latter back to the former, so I'm not sure which to go with now. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 01:47, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
:I personally believe that the italicized one is better because it makes it readily distinguishable from other rows (where it's actually directly obtainable in-game). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:51, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
::Agreed. I'll change them back when I find them again. Thanks. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 01:55, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
Oh yeah in the same vein, under acquisition in item pages, when an item can be found in an area more than once (but still finite), do leave just the location or do we include the number of times it can be found? (6 [[Thunderstone]]s for example can be found in [[Ultra Plant]]). [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 02:53, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
:I guess it's simple enough, I don't think a count like that is a problem. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:05, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
::If I may intrude, that would require a lot of "backtracking" so to say, as many already existing item pages lack the amount of it obtainable in every finite way, especially when talking about earlier generations. This is why I personally would oppose the idea, even if only for the sheer size of that job, but if someone is ready to do all that checking for every single existing item page, knock yourselves out. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:21, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
:::I think if it's missing, no big deal. It can be fixed sooner or later. And if it's often "later", even "much later", that's, again, not a huge deal. It's fine without, but also probably nice with a count. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:27, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

== Food Stall color ==

I don't get what you meant by that. The other Festival Plaza facilities don't share the same progression of palettes with each other. In fact, a majority of the most common ones are primarily or partially red, not blue. Plus there is nothing I've ever seen of Alola having some overarching color scheme outside the island names being colors in Hawaiian, and those four aren't applicable there, or with any of the different facility palettes.

I get keeping the descriptions of the facility palettes simple, but unless there's something in the game's code or from a guidebook that has official names for the facility colors that I'm not aware of, I just don't see what you mean by them having explicit palettes[[User:Voltdetector|Voltdetector]] ([[User talk:Voltdetector|talk]]) 02:47, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
:Let me get the issue of the "palette" out of the way. There are actually two reasonable color "palettes" you can take from SM/USUM. The first is the simple 7 "primary" colors of ROYGBIV, as seen in [[Poké Bean]] colors and {{p|Minior}}'s forms. The second is seen in the 8 colors you can [[Festival Plaza#Dye houses|dye]] clothes in (which many [[fashion item]]s also naturally have). (Pink is the "odd man out" in the latter set; "navy blue" could be considered a parallel to "indigo" and "purple" a parallel to "violet", and all other colors have the same names.)
:Now—if we exclude the obviously Pokemon-themed colorations of some facilities—every facility's color scheme is plainly based on one of these "primary" colors...or black. The black is a huge through line, so that gets a pass. But "brown" is not part of Alola's "palette" and it's not even remotely a significant pattern with any other facilities. Calling that one facility theme "brown" is ignoring the blatant pattern that everything else fits in; it's not reasonable that just one doesn't, especially when there are plain elements of a primary color in the building's color scheme. It may be relatively subdued, but it is the most meaningful label for this. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 03:07, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
::That's quite an arbitrary rule to apply to this. You're just applying the standard ROYGBIV, not something unique to the Pokemon games themselves, like Floette flowers, or the island colors. Plus, unlike the island colors, which are far more prevalent in Alola (Battle Royal Dome's stage entrances, the Battle Royal Dome symbol itself, Oricorio's forms, parts of the respective Island Kahunas' clothing, the Island Guardians), there's only two seemingly solid cases of it: Minior and Poke Beans.
::As well, those two are not perfect matches for ROYGBIV. The "blue" and "indigo" Minior Forms and Poke Bean colors are closer to being cyan and blue, respectively. I checked the RGB levels of the sprites in an editing program and none of the "Indigo" ones had red levels higher than their green levels Which for Indigo the RGB levels are usually around 75,0,130. The "blue" ones were far from being dominantly blue, having a fair mix of green and blue, which shades of Cyan usually have. Not to mention the "blue" pattern bean is nearly entirely white.
::All this, along with the Pink and Navy Blue dye shops and the odd Black themed facilities throughout not fitting with the ROYGBIV palette, leads me to the conclusion that it's not nearly as concrete of a design theory as it might seem.
::In conclusion, I think that we should provide descriptions of objects and locations based on what we see, not based on our assumptions. [[User:Voltdetector|Voltdetector]] ([[User talk:Voltdetector|talk]]) 06:44, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
:::If the games want to identify whatever shades as "blue" or "indigo" or whatever, so long as it's halfway reasonable (i.e., not "blue" for '''orange'''), that's their choice and not even something worth arguing...
:::Among the other three food stall variations, the only things that consistently match the obvious color theme are the checkers and the paneling flanking them. The first food stall variation bucks that pattern, with those parts having different colors. And, of the two parts, I think it's profoundly reasonable to focus on the checker pattern. Brown isn't remotely worth calling a color scheme, it's just wood, a ''default''. The plain design touch is the blue checkers. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 12:18, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
::::Ok, I'll concede, I hadn't checked what the in-game Pokedex names Minior's forms prior to now. Poke Beans also likely follow that scheme, even if it's not as solid, there's still 7 of them and they somewhat follow ROYGBIV. The same for the dye stalls; Navy Blue could just be a mistranslation of Indigo. (and I just thought of Pink being there to fully represent the Island colors alongside ROYGBIV)
::::But I still think it's quite a large leap in logic to assume that other things in-game fit that when they don't come in a set of 7 colors that resemble ROYGBIV as those three examples do. [[User:Voltdetector|Voltdetector]] ([[User talk:Voltdetector|talk]]) 20:52, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
:::::I don't think there's a big leap of logic, but I don't think that's the only reason to choose "blue" either. Like I said, that's really the only reasonable color you can point to as the design choice ("brown" is not the design choice, it's just the foundation). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:43, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
::::::Once again, that's a very arbitrary distinction. Brown is a color just the same as blue is. I don't see what makes it different from any other color that makes it just a "foundation". Regular wooden surfaces are just as valid in real life for designing building exteriors or interiors as any painted surface. [[User:Voltdetector|Voltdetector]] ([[User talk:Voltdetector|talk]]) 04:38, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
:::::::I really don't think this is hard. Blue is a color that the other variations have used. Brown isn't. There's simply NO good reason to choose brown uniquely here instead of blue. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 06:29, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

== Flavor Page ==

I'm relatively new to editing wikis, so I'm not sure if I ought to "...discuss this one first" {{ut|Tiddlywinks|here on your talk page}}, or on the Flavor article's [[Talk:Flavor|talk page]], but I figured I'd start here to give myself a better chance of being sure that you read this and don't accidentally miss it.

My main issue with the [[Flavor|Flavor page]] as it stands now is that the {{DL|Flavor|List_of_Apricorns_by_flavor|Apricorn section}} has the flavors listed in the "correct" order (that being Spicy, Sour, Dry, Bitter, and Sweet) while the page's intro, flavor preference table, Contest/Pokéathlon table, and the berry tables for gens III, IV, and e-Reader all have the flavors listed in the following order: Spicy (+Atk), Dry (+SpA), Sweet (+Spe), Bitter (+SpD), and Sour (+Def) [so not quite half-and-half, like I first thought - that's my bad].

This is, to me, pretty unintuitive, since stats are most always ordered HP (N/A here), Atk, Def, SpA, SpD, and Spe. I was actually looking at the flavor page for more info about {{cat|Berries_that_may_cause_confusion|confusion berries}} and ended up super confused (hah, didn't even mean for that silly little joke to happen) for a moment because of the ordering of the flavors (though that may just be indicative of ignorance on my part). Because 6/7 sections have the flavors ordered in the "weird" way, I'm beginning to think that there's probably a reason for it. If there is and I'm missing it, then please do let me know! However, even if that were to be the case, I, personally, still think that ordering the flavors to match with the traditional order of stats would be more beneficial overall. It makes things easier for dumb-dumbs like me, so that we don't have to go to {{DL|Nature|Stat-focused_table|an entirely different page}} in order to figure out what the heck is going on.

And, just on the off chance that you're considering it, there's no need to copy-paste that table onto the Flavor page - the current table is totally fine for its page (though I certainly wouldn't complain if I could reinstate my edited version of it!), since it's more focused on the flavors themselves, rather than the increase and decrease of stats that come along with most natures. At the very least, we ought to make all seven sections consistent, one way or the other.

Thanks!

:First things first, there is only one place on that page where any of those basic stats is mentioned at all ("Attack"). On the rest of the page, no one will be able to tell what stat each flavor corresponds to without a whole bunch of cross-referencing (or memorization). So the proposition that an "incorrect" order might be any particular problem is fairly dubious.
:FYI, it was also kind of a problem that you didn't change all of the tables. (I don't mean to say that it's okay for you to make the change if you do everything up "right".)
:My primary concern about the "proper" order was that I'd like to know what the games actually do. And {{pkmn|Contest}} categories are listed in the order Cool Beauty Cute Smart Tough, just as the second table currently on the page shows. IMO this is a fine order since Contests are pretty strongly linked with the flavors (at least stronger than anything else). There doesn't seem to be any real consistency in other things, like the stat order when viewing a [[Pokéblock]], the [[List of items by index number (Generation VII)|default order]] of the [[Apricorn]]s, the [[performance]] stat order...
:Given that general inconsistency, it may be reasonable to default to the order of basic stats. But personally, I don't think it's that huge a deal, either.
:(FYI, you can usually make comments on a mainspace talk page first. It's much easier for other people to contribute opinions there. And people will generally pay some attention...especially if they've explicitly suggested the talk page. But even if you don't seem to get a resonse, you can always make a short comment on the person's user talk page to direct their attention to the talk page you commented on.)

==Alola Dex in Ultras Sun and Moon==
Hey there. I need your help with something. Can you add this to the Pokémon Infobox so I can add the dex numbers on the Pokémon that appeared in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon?: a2dex And maybe add a category like this? Category:Pokémon in the Alola Pokédex in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Kinda like how you did in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. [[User:Seabiscuit2020|Seabiscuit2020]] ([[User talk:Seabiscuit2020|talk]]) 15:59, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
:As we've told a number of people who have asked in other places, we are considering moving the 'dex numbers out of the infobox. As you can see on {{p|Zubat}}'s page, its infobox is already very well packed with the 'dex numbers. Trying to make a new format so we can add another could be very complex, especially with the more or less random nature of which 'dex numbers each Pokemon has. We think that putting that info somewhere else may be better. There still has not been a decision on the matter. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:10, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

== Quotes ==

I'm planning to redo all the quotes for characters in core series games (I have nothing to do), while filling out any missing quotes. I just wanted to check a few things.
*Do references to other characters and items requires linking to the articles; the names for the characters or items aren't directly stated ([[Special:Diff/2771756|example]])?
*Do quotes in "scream" speech bubbles need to be bolded? ([[Special:Diff/2771753|example - first line in USUM section]]: "This is excellent! Exciting, even...")
*For battles, are "Before battling, Upon being defeated, After being defeated, If the player is defeated" the correct terms to use? (I think I previously discussed with you before, but another admin sometimes changed the "Upon being defeated" back to "Being defeated".)
Are do these doesn't really matter at all? (I doubt anybody pays attention to the quotes section) Thanks. — '''[[User:Ruixiang95|Ruixiang]][[User talk:Ruixiang95|95]]''' 09:04, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
:I'm not sure about linking indirect references. Right now...I suppose if it were me, I wouldn't remove them but I also don't know if I would be motivated to add them. (Very possibly, if I were specifically looking at something, I might realize that the links are a good idea; or possibly the opposite. Right now, though, I'm just not sure.)
:Personally I don't like bold for screaming. It's never come across like it was actually supposed to be screaming to me.
:I do prefer that set, with the exception that "if the player is defeated" is unnecessary since the first half already entirely implies that. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:00, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

== Cute Charm ==

The sentence, "The set of possible values depends on the gender of the Pokémon with Cute Charm, and if the Pokémon with Cute Charm is female, the wild Pokémon's gender ratio." looked kind of weird and I thought it had a grammar error. It looked like it was trying to say something like "depends on the gender of the Pokemon, whether the Pokemon with Cute Charm is female, and the wild Pokemon's gender ratio." Can we possibly make it more clear and obvious that it isn't a grammar error? [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 03:04, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

== The Ash's Charizard gender debate, and the reason I ceased participation on it ==

Force Fire said this when I contacted them(my notes added to show my thought process reading this):

"First of all, Dennou is not a former staff member, he is still a senior administrator"

My mistake.

"Secondly, you need to stop going around like you have some sort of authority"

I know that and neither want nor care for authority on this site, nor have I been actively attempting to inflect such....Passion for rules =/= projecting authority or seniority unless you are assuming bad faith/intent on my end...

"Thirdly, just because I've been very strict on anything gender related, doesn't mean I'm going to say "no" every single time"

I'd like an example of them saying yes on non-Force Fire-written and mandated gender policy-based evidence, but they're right in a way).

"There is actual legitimate evidence/source for Dennou's claim"

Tomioka is invoking Word of God like JK Rowling retconned a Jewish Student into Hogwarts despite wizards and witches having no prior evidence of organized religion besides the occasional "my God"...that's how
Word of God works, which this echoes IMO.

"Tomioka is an actual writer for the show, so he probably knows more and probably has control over how he wants characters to be portrayed"

Does he have authority over other anime staff? Is he the one who OKs final decisions? I don't know if this is true or if Force Fire is assuming this (And if so, based on what)?.

"Tracy West novelisations is not written by a writer from the (Japanese) show. There's a big difference"

Yeah, it was a bad, rather sarcastically-motivated example in hindsight)

...I feel bad for ever entering into it based on a big red warning label on the top of the talkpage...Am I supposed to feel ashamed for even trying to quote policy? Did it really come off as bossing people around in a Brainy Smurf-esque way via poor wording? Or did I catch Force Fire in a bad mood/at a bad time...can you sort this out my confusion/shame? --[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 02:34, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

== Smogon and fansite rulings ==

If Showdown(created, owned and maintained by Smogon) isn't a reliable source(Though I think it should be, but Verlisify fans/sympathizers run this site and Serebii, methinks), why is Smogon OK for some reason? They're one and the same, and they cross-reference each other. And have they given permission to use their info? Or is it a case of petty rivalry based on perceived betrayal(s) and flimsy accusations between webmasters that lead to digital Iron Curtains like with Serebii and PokéBeach(That needs to end...That was how many years ago? Talent gets moved around all the time...), and no permission is given/received between them and us? Or should I ask EB/Archaic(To see if he has an old, unnecessary grudge with Smogon's owner, as well)for a more concrete status of Smogon/Showdown? --[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 03:16, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

:::Source code about source code is a step beyond what we're comfortable with trusting. Put simply, Showdown's accuracy always has to be couched in a caveat. Only the game can truly be trusted to perfectly represent the game. Showdown has had to correct mistakes, and we can't necessarily say where remaining ones are or aren't. It's one thing to look at the ''game'' and say, see, because of this, this is how that works; it's another thing to look at Showdown and say, well, Showdown says this—and chances are ''pretty good'' it's right.

== Re: {{m|Air Cutter}} trivia ==

Sorry if my edit summary was unclear. What I meant was, since there are no Triple Battles in Generation VII (set in Alola), Flying-type attacks introduced in that generation can't hit non-adjacent Pokémon (since there are none). So this feature of the move is no longer unique. I'm surprised the trivium hasn't already been removed. [[User:Dinosauramiable|Dinosauramiable]] ([[User talk:Dinosauramiable|talk]]) 21:57, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
:If you're talking about a feature unique to Triple Battles, you can't say anything about moves that you can't use in Triple Battles. The inverse is that you can use every other move in Triple Battles to hit non-adjacent foes, and this is not a thing you can rate true/false for new moves because (again) you can't use them in Triple Battles. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:10, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
::In that case, the trivium should specify "the only pre-Generation VII damaging Flying-type move" or something instead of "the only damaging Flying-type move"; right now it's misleading.

== Ancient Trait Cards ==

Dear Tiddlywinks,

I was hoping you could answer some of my queries:

1. I have noticed that the Ancient Trait 'variety' of card renowned for its artwork style differences and ancient trait abilities (not included in other card types, though some cross over exists with some Mega Evolution cards also listed as Ancient Trait cards e.g. M Sceptile and M Rayquaza) is not listed as a TCG Pokémon card type, is there a reason for this?

2. Also should Kingdra's Primal Clash 108 and XY39 (which redirects to Primal Clash 108) cards be listed as separate cards in the Ancient Trait article due to artwork differences or not?

I look forward to hearing your response,

Thank you in advance.[[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 04:19, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

== Deletions by user:GrammarFreak01 ==

Thank you for stepping in last time, though GrammarFreak01 has again deleted all of my work leaving a useless comment behind to justify the drastic action. I was concerned maybe what I had written was to detailed, though my additions were in regards to Cameran Palace's various rooms visited in M08. I may be wrong, but I believed at the time of writing that the information was appropriate for the page dedicated to the location. GrammarFreak01 has been advised against such actions and ways to better handle any personal concerns, including contacting the user at hand; none of which has occurred. I do not wish to enter an edit war, and would like my changes reinstated, even if modified, and actions taken against the user for overstepping the mark one too many times.

I streamlined what I had previously put in, deeming it of value given that these rooms were visited in the movie and having looked at other location pages, such details appear to be of interest. Fantastic news, instead of deleting the new additions, user GrammarFreak01 swapped a few sentences around to give the page a better structure. I'm really happy with the result. I would still have preferred discussion with GrammarFreak01 before deleting all of the additions.

== Individual Pokémon in Shuffle weekly cycle ==

May I know how do we plan to include where/when the Pokémon appears in the "Game location: In side games" section of each individual Pokémon for Pokémon Shuffle? I doubt we need to include the UX Stages since it's the same as the initial Main Stages. Here are a few suggestions for Special Stages:
::Daily, Special Daily, Safari etc. (With form differences):
*Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Special Daily Pokémon (First release)|Special Daily Pokémon}}'' (Winking; First release) (Prior to February 13, 2018) Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Special Daily Pokémon}}'' (Winking; Week 4 & 16) (From February 13, 2018 onward)
*Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Special Daily Pokémon (First release)|Special Daily Pokémon}}'' (Winking; First release){{tt|*|Prior to February 13, 2018}} Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Special Daily Pokémon}}'' (Winking; Week 4 & 16){{tt|*|From February 13, 2018 onward}}
*Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Special Daily Pokémon (First release)|Special Daily Pokémon}}'' (Winking; First release — Prior to February 13, 2018) Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Special Daily Pokémon}}'' (Winking; Week 4 & 16 — From February 13, 2018 onward)
::Daily, Special Daily, Safari etc. (Without form differences):
*Event: ''[[Special Stages#The Daily Pokémon (#6)|The Daily Pokémon (#6)]]'' (Prior to February 13, 2018)
*Event: ''[[Special Stages#Daily Pokémon|The Daily Pokémon (Week 7 & 19)]]'' (From February 13, 2018 onward)
::Great, Ultra, Special Challenges etc.
*Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Great Challenge|Mimikyu Appears}}'' (Prior to February 13, 2018) Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Great Challenge|Mimikyu Appears}}'' (Week 6) (From February 13, 2018 onward
Or simply just
*Event: ''{{DL|Special Stages|Great Challenge|Mimikyu Appears}}'' (Week 6)

:I hardly know anything about Shuffle off the top of my head, honestly. {{u|CycloneGU}} was into Shuffle, but they haven't been that active recently, though I think they've still kind of got an ear to Bulbapedia.
:If you want me to figure it out, I'd start real basic. Like, when you ask "how do we plan to include [...]", it sounds like there's no location info for Shuffle on at least some pages. From above, I can identify {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Mimikyu}}, who do seem to have location info, so I'm confused. Are you actually saying that the current info is inadequate?

Currently, the info already on each individual Pokémon pages are Special Stages (Event) that is prior to the update on February 13. Now, the Special Stages are pre-set for each week. I just wanted to ask if Bulbapedia wants to separate them from the two versions. But I guess I'll just leave a message at CycloneGU's talk page.

== Template pages ==

Do templates usually get a move tag if they need to be tagged to be moved? This is because I have noticed that [[Template:Ash and Pikachu characters|two of]] [[Template:Pokémon Battrio characters|them]] had incorrect/incomplete page names and I wasn't sure if those types of tags go on templates aside from normal pages. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 04:07, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
:Tagging templates can easily be done wrong, so it may be simpler to just bring it up with someone on {{bp|staff}}. (Besides, template names don't really affect a whole lot, people don't really see them, so they may not even be a huge problem, depending.)

::The Ash and Pikachu one, it was missing an amphersand sign since the actual manga contained that instead of the original ''and'' and the Battrio manga adaptation one was the one that didn't contain the whole manga title in its name for the template. It was for consistency reasons since many of the other templates containing manga characters had the full titles, such as [[Template:Let's Play the Pokémon Card Game! Sun and Moon Arc characters|this one]]. Hope this helps. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 21:23, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

== Talk page comment arrangements ==

In regards to PardescanSlowbro's talk page, I was responding to his comment: ''"I must be dim. I thought you said major appearances equals appearances where the individual was central to the plot? Some of the deleted points may need to be reinstated based solely on this definition."'' How are they going to know which comment I'm referring to if I just post my comment (''"Yes, that is ''exactly'' what I said. There's nothing about the deleted points that would indicate they fall under "major appearances". Can you give any specific examples so I know what exactly you're talking about?"'') at the end of their talk page? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 05:44, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
:How about...''don't'' just post ''"Yes, that is exactly what I said [...]"''. If two people are talking in a group and you want to respond to something one says but they keep talking, you're not just SOL when you get a chance to speak later.

I would like to jump in here, Tiddlywinks. What GrammarFreak01 is asking is what decision or rule requires Bulbapedia talk pages to have all comments go in order of when they were posted when compared to other wikis where comments are more like branches and split off when multiple users comment on a single reply. Frankly, I am curious as well regarding the order since the discussion on PardescanSlowbro's talk page does not make much sense in the current order, but I believe that there must be a reason for doing it this way. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 20:30, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
:"What rule?" More or less just as I and other staff have said: "Comments go in order". The reason is also as I said above: anything else really just screws with everything else. Other wikis are welcome to do what they want. Bulbapedia asks that comments go in order (effectively just like any natural conversation; the entire species has managed to do that fine for a very long time, people can manage here too).

Regarding [[Special:Diff/2688964]], I wasn't talking about new forms (?), I was referring to Pokémon like Diancie and Genesect being "hidden" and officially revealed and released partway through their respective generations, or even something like Bonsly showing up in XD. Granted I guess the new UBs are different in this case because they didn't exist in Sun/Moon's game code at all? Dunno if that would be worth noting.

==Lusamine's Pokémon==
Hi, regarding [[Special:Diff/2703463]], I don't see why this can't be assumed. It seems pretty obvious that Clefable and Herdier evolved from Cleffa and Lillipup respectively, even if it wasn't explicitly mentioned. Assuming they are entirely different Pokémon seems more of an assumption than assuming they evolved. We also assume May's Venusaur evolved from Bulbasaur, instead of assuming that May caught a completely new Venusaur. [[User:Satsjoe|Satsjoe]] ([[User talk:Satsjoe|talk]]) 18:46, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

:As for May's Venusaur, I haven't watched those seasons so I don't know anything about it. But if what you say is true, perhaps that's something to be revisited. The prevailing winds on this wiki have moved from assumption to cautiousness over the years (see also, for example, the new-ish policy on assuming moves), and I'm fully in favor of double-checking old assumptions to see whether we actually know what we thought we did.

==Mina's trial==
One small note is that the other Trial Captains cannot be re-challenged in any order during the games. Instead it is done in a specific order by the order of when their trials were conducted with the exception of Lana and Mallow who appear in the same order. That is why I chose to do this with each of their pages, but only mentioned the previous person only to indicate when they could be fought. I will stay out of your way in this matter, but keep this in mind. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 02:34, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
:Alternatively they could be kept as a minor reference in Mina's page (order listing like this) to cut back on wording for all those pages. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 02:37, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

:::Yes, I think the most appropriate thing is to only mention the order on the main description of the trial itself (either Mina's page and/or the Seafolk Village page), not on every single Trial Captain's page.

== Rocket Reds ==

I agree with your last statement. I am responing here because I think this might become a forum, but do you think there is any truth to the Rocket Reds idea I mentioned? I personally doubt it but just want to see whether it is true or not. I did not add it since it is doubtful and there was no source. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 16:06, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
And yes, Wikia wikis are indeed badly maintained. There are links to pirated material on many of the wikis. I wasn't sure if the aite condoned such practice or if the editors simply got away with it, but I see now that it is simply bad maintance. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 16:06, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

== Blue ==

Got summary. But, I also added a statement that as an Exeggcute it haf four moves in the last battle but at the Pokemon League has only three which is not possible since there is no move deleter in gen 1 unless he actually replaced his exeggcute with a diffrent one. Is this notable? [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 04:22, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
:Oh, and what would be primary medium in a specific case? Also, at [[Game move errors]], I have made a proposel to move the article. Maybe you would like to comment. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 04:26, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
::To your first point: I really don't consider it notable. There are ample explanations. You pointed out that he could have replaced it with a different one; another possibility is that the developers never intended for NPCs to have to follow the same rules as the player. Either way, it's easily explainable and not a big deal that needs to be worried about.
::Second point: Primary medium would be wherever it has the largest or most important role. For most Pokemon, this is the anime or manga (since the games rarely give Pokemon any role at all beyond being in battle). [[Nebby]] is a very rare exception where the games are the primary medium for a Pokemon.
::Third point: I don't especially feel strongly enough either way to comment. In my opinion, we have a backlog of plenty of pages the Editorial Board should move sooner than replacing one fan-designated name with a different fan-designated name.

== Delibird easter egg at the Shady House ==

Hi, I'm new and tried adding the note about Delibird occasionally coming down the chimney in the [[Shady House]]. Here's where I heard about it, and thought it was a fun easter egg to include: https://youtu.be/2Io1a3yX2fc?t=1m18s. I wasn't sure how to include a link to this video though, or if I should include the link at all. What are your thoughts?

==Eruption==
Actually, if you look at Typhlosion's learnset pages, it also has a dash instead of 150. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 18:49, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
:Same goes for Camprupt. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 18:52, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
::[[Fire (type)]], the variation {{m|Water Spout}}, and [[Water (type)]] all list 150 for these moves. If learnset pages don't match that, it's probably a good idea to ask a staff member which one is correct ''before'' making widespread changes.

::::I see, and Water Spout also has the same problem on at least Wailmer/Wailord/Kyogre and probably more. As I said, a staff member should be asked ''first'' so we know which pages to change and which ones to leave alone.

== Speculation? ==

But since the developers had it and later removed it, it evidently had meaning. Similarly, a man in Lt surge gym says that the second switch is next to the first and a man in Saffron gym says pyschic is weak to bug.

== Spelling and grammar Mistakes of Jacob9594‎ ==

Look I am not doing this on purpose. Sorry if seems that way and that I am hurting your good faith. I always make sure to preview my edits before saving, I don't catch my mistake right away or notice the obviousness. What else do I need to show that I understand in editing and explaining why. I fully aware if I don't write the sentence correctly or a paragraph correctly or added too much information. I always try my best to so that people can understand it when reading. That is also why I would say sometimes feel free to change it or expand.fix on it, it showcase I understand my limits and need help. Isn't that what an encyclopedia is improving or fixing on information to make it fun and understandable for anyone who comes to search and read about it? I ams killing to accept the feedback and criticism so I can try to improve and help tot he best of my abilities.

== My Trivia ==

Hello. On the page for {{m|Shore Up}}, you removed my Trivia about Shore Up being the only Ground Move that targets the user because it's mentioned in the table. You are correct on that point, however, it mentions nowhere on that page that it's the '''only''' ground move that targets the user. Can I ask why else it was removed? Thanks (Apologies if I was slightly rude). [[User:The IceCream|The IceCream]] ([[User talk:The IceCream|talk]]) 22:51, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

Correcting myself here, turns out you did say about it on the Ground Page, but not on Shore Up's page and this has been done before; for example with Play Rough being the only Physical Fairy move, something mentioned on the Fairy-Type page and the Play Rough Trivia. Thanks and sorry. [[User:The IceCream|The IceCream]] ([[User talk:The IceCream|talk]]) 23:07, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

:Yes, you do. This is why an effort should typically be made to add the unsigned template as soon as possible, so that the old revisions don't get buried even further under new ones. The old edit you noticed with no signature was an unusual exception that had gotten overlooked.

'''Megalo Tower''' (Japanese: '''メガロタワー''' ''Megalo Tower'') is a large tower in [[Ultra Space]]. Located in the center of [[Ultra Megalopolis]], it is where the player confronts [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Necrozma|Ultra]] {{p|Necrozma}} during the climax of {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.

After defeating Necrozma, [[Phyco]] and [[Soliera]] in Ultra Sun or [[Dulse]] and [[Zossie]] in Ultra Moon will arrive with a {{p|Poipole}} in tow, telling them that it is interested in joining them. The player can accept or refuse; in the latter case, they can always return to Ultra Megalopolis to pick it up again.

As Megalo Tower is part of Ultra Space, if any {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Cubone}} or {{p|Exeggcute}} is evolved here, it will instead evolve into {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Marowak}} or {{p|Exeggutor}}'s original Kantonian form instead of their [[Regional variant|Alolan form]].

It only appears in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

==Geography==

Megalo Tower is a tower in [[Ultra Megalopolis]] which emits blinding light. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun]] and [[Pokémon Ultra Moon]], it is where the [[Player]] faces [[Necrozma]] at the top, as [[Ultra Necrozma]], after absorbing [[Nebby]] as [[Solgaleo]]{{sup/7|US}}/[[Lunala]]{{sup/7|UM}}. The landscape is mostly dark and black.

==Pokémon==
Ultra Necrozma appears here, but it cannot be {{pkmn2|caught}}. It has an aura that gives it +1 [[Statistic#Stat modifiers|stage]] to its {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}}.
