Rotation (TCG)

2016-05-12T13:53:19Z

Emiel03: /* {{TCG|Expanded format}} */ Added BREAKthrough, BREAKpoint and Generations as legal in Expanded

A '''rotation''' in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] is when several sets are removed from [[Play! Pokémon]] sanctioned events, generally because they are too old and would not be compatible with newer sets or rules. Rotations almost always occur directly following the [[World Championships]] and remove four or more sets. If a set is rotated, that means a player may no longer use any card from that set in their deck (with exceptions; see below). This rule only applies to {{TCG|Standard format}} (formally referred to as Modified format) and {{TCG|Expanded format}}. In {{TCG|Unlimited format}}, players may use any card from any set in their decks.

==Legal cards from rotated sets==
Some cards in sets that are part of the current rotation are '''reprints''' of cards that appeared in older rotations. If a card is included as part of any set in the current rotation, any version of that card is legal for tournament play. For example, at least one version of {{TCG ID|EX Sandstorm|Rare Candy|88}} has been legal in every modified format since it was printed. Thus, older versions of Rare Candy, even those from rotated sets like {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} and {{TCG|Great Encounters}}, are still legal cards. Similarly, basic {{TCG|Energy card}}s from all sets are still allowed in tournament play.

In cases where a card is reprinted with significant text changes, the player playing the card must have a new copy of the card on hand, separate from their deck to ''serve as reference''. For example, the effect of {{TCG ID|Base Set|Energy Retrieval|81}} printed in {{TCG|Black & White}} is different from the original print in {{TCG|Base Set}}. A player would be permitted to include the Base Set print of Energy Retrieval in their deck for tournament play, but would be required to provide a copy of the Black & White print as reference.

Rotation (TCG)

2016-05-12T13:52:38Z

Emiel03: /* {{TCG|Standard format}} */ Added BREAKthrough, BREAKpoint and Generations as legal in standard

A '''rotation''' in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] is when several sets are removed from [[Play! Pokémon]] sanctioned events, generally because they are too old and would not be compatible with newer sets or rules. Rotations almost always occur directly following the [[World Championships]] and remove four or more sets. If a set is rotated, that means a player may no longer use any card from that set in their deck (with exceptions; see below). This rule only applies to {{TCG|Standard format}} (formally referred to as Modified format) and {{TCG|Expanded format}}. In {{TCG|Unlimited format}}, players may use any card from any set in their decks.

==Legal cards from rotated sets==
Some cards in sets that are part of the current rotation are '''reprints''' of cards that appeared in older rotations. If a card is included as part of any set in the current rotation, any version of that card is legal for tournament play. For example, at least one version of {{TCG ID|EX Sandstorm|Rare Candy|88}} has been legal in every modified format since it was printed. Thus, older versions of Rare Candy, even those from rotated sets like {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} and {{TCG|Great Encounters}}, are still legal cards. Similarly, basic {{TCG|Energy card}}s from all sets are still allowed in tournament play.

In cases where a card is reprinted with significant text changes, the player playing the card must have a new copy of the card on hand, separate from their deck to ''serve as reference''. For example, the effect of {{TCG ID|Base Set|Energy Retrieval|81}} printed in {{TCG|Black & White}} is different from the original print in {{TCG|Base Set}}. A player would be permitted to include the Base Set print of Energy Retrieval in their deck for tournament play, but would be required to provide a copy of the Black & White print as reference.

It has two fins that have finger-like appendages, baleen plates that resemble teeth, and a blowhole on the top of its head. Wailmer stores water inside its body, which it expels through its nostrils to startle people. When storing water in its body, it can turn into a bouncing ball. The more water filling its body, the higher it can bounce. It becomes lethargic when it is dry. It eats tons of food a day. It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}}, and can only live on land for a short amount of time. It occasionally bounces onto the beaches to play.

==Trivia==
* Wailmer, along with {{p|Azurill}} and {{p|Kecleon}}, was one of the first {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} revealed, in early March 2001.
* Wailmer and {{p|Wailord|its evolution}}'s [[Egg Group]] combination ({{egg|Field}} and {{egg|Water 2}}) is unique.
* Wailmer is the only [[Generation III]] Pokémon [[Ross's Wailmer (Theater VS Pack 5)|with a TCG card containing dot codes]] for an  [[e-Reader]] application.

===Origin===
Wailmer is based on a {{wp|baleen whale}} with aspects of a beach ball.

====Name origin====
Wailmer may be a combination of ''whale'' and ''mer'' (French for ''sea''). ''Wail'' may also refer to the sounds or songs that whales and this Pokémon might make.

Hoeruko literally means 吠える子 (bellowing child), but 吠える ''hoeru'' (bellow) is phonetically similar to ''whale'', making it also possibly mean ''whale child''.

==In other languages==

'''Wailmer''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ホエルコ''' ''Hoeruko'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Wailord}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Wailmer is a spherical whale Pokémon with no tail. It has a dark blue topside and a tan underbelly with grooves. It has two fins that have finger-like appendages, baleen plates that resemble teeth, and a blowhole on the top of its head. Wailmer stores water inside its body, which it expels through its nostrils to startle people. When storing water in its body, it can turn into a bouncing ball. The more water filling its body, the higher it can bounce. It becomes lethargic when it is dry. It eats tons of food a day. It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}}, and can only live on land for a short amount of time. It occasionally bounces onto the beaches to play.

==Trivia==
* Wailmer, along with {{p|Azurill}} and {{p|Kecleon}}, was one of the first {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} revealed, in early March 2001.
* Wailmer and {{p|Wailord|its evolution}}'s [[Egg Group]] combination ({{egg|Field}} and {{egg|Water 2}}) is unique.
* Wailmer is the only [[Generation III]] Pokémon [[Ross's Wailmer (Theater VS Pack 5)|with a TCG card containing dot codes]] for an  [[e-Reader]] application.

===Origin===
Wailmer is based on a {{wp|baleen whale}} with aspects of a beach ball.

====Name origin====
Wailmer may be a combination of ''whale'' and ''mer'' (French for ''sea''). ''Wail'' may also refer to the sounds or songs that whales and this Pokémon might make.

Hoeruko literally means 吠える子 (bellowing child), but 吠える ''hoeru'' (bellow) is phonetically similar to ''whale'', making it also possibly mean ''whale child''.

Kalos Route 6

'''Route 6''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|６番道路|６ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 6'') is a route in western [[Kalos]], connecting {{rt|7|Kalos}} and [[Parfum Palace]]. The route is also known as '''Palais Lane''' (Japanese: '''パレの{{tt|並木道|なみきみち}}''' ''Palais Allée'').

==Route description==
Route 6 is a route between {{rt|7|Kalos}} and the [[Parfum Palace]]. Entering from Route 7, it is a straight path to the Parfum Palace, shaded by trees that line the path in two neat rows. Two {{tc|Tourist}}s idle along this path, on opposite sides. Bushes also grow between the trees in a neat row. Three of these bushes are slightly larger than the rest and may contain a Pokémon. When the player approaches within four spaces to either side and two spaces in front of these special bushes, if it contains a Pokémon, it will start to shake, and when the player moves directly in front of the bush, the Pokémon will jump out at them.

Beyond the trees to either side of the middle path is unkept {{DL|tall grass|long grass}} which can only be accessed from the Parfum Palace grounds. On either side, at the south end, these areas reconnect to the middle path via a one-way ledge. Several Trainers and items hide in or around the long grass, and narrow, mazelike clear passages wind through the long grass, with occasional ledges along the path to complicate safe backwards navigation. In the long grass area to the southwest of the middle path (on the left if facing towards Parfum Palace), there is also an [[Aguav Berry]] tree halfway down the southwest side of the field.

==In the anime==
[[File:Kalos Route 6 anime.png|thumb|220px|Route 6 in the anime]]
Route 6 was briefly seen in ''[[XY018|Awakening the Sleeping Giant!]]'', connecting to [[Parfum Palace]].
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* In-game maps show Route 6 going directly between Parfum Palace and [[Camphrier Town]], but the route ends at Route 7 and does not connect to Camphrier Town at all.
* The route is probably a reference to the Gardens at the Palace of Versailles, as it appears very garden-like and leads to a palace. This is further evidenced because Honedge, an evolutionary relative of Aegislash (a Pokémon which served kings), can be found in the tall grass.

Evolution stone

2015-04-27T21:00:39Z

Emiel03: /* List of stones */ Edited the link to Victory Road I entered in a previous edit

:''For the Oval Stone, see [[Evolution-inducing held item#Oval Stone|evolution-inducing held item]]. For the Eviolite, see [[Stat-enhancing item#Eviolite|stat-enhancing item]].''
[[File:Branched evolution.png|thumb|250px|right|Gloom's [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branched]] [[evolution family]] as demonstrated in the anime: both of Gloom's potential evolutions require an evolutionary stone.]]
An '''evolutionary stone''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|進化の石|しんかのいし}}''' ''Evolution stone'') is a stone-like [[item]] that radiates a mysterious energy that causes some [[Pokémon (species)|species of Pokémon]] to [[Evolution|evolve]].

Another stone, the Everstone, is different in that it radiates a type of energy that prevents Evolution in the holders; however, if a Pokémon holding the Everstone has an evolutionary stone used on it, it will still evolve.

Evolutionary stones may be used at any time, and cause instant Evolution in the Pokémon they are used on, which cannot be canceled. With the exception of the Everstone, which must be held for its effects to take place, all evolutionary stones are applied directly to the Pokémon. All stones that cause Evolution in a Pokémon are consumed upon that Pokémon's evolution.

Many Pokémon that result from a stone-based evolution have vastly different [[level]]-up [[move|learnset]]s than their pre-evolutionary forms, with several learning no moves after Evolution at all.

==In the anime==
[[File:Large Moon Stone.png|thumb|200px|A giant Moon Stone]]
Evolutionary stones are showcased somewhat rarely in [[Pokémon anime|the anime]], as only a relative few Pokémon are able to evolve by using them. Despite this, they were among the earliest of items to have been showcased in the anime, appearing as early as ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', where a rather large Moon Stone appeared deep within [[Mt. Moon]]. It was being worshipped by a group of {{p|Clefairy}} who lived there, and was soon stolen by Team Rocket and ended up being blown up. The shards from it, however, rained down on the Clefairy and caused some of them to evolve into {{p|Clefable}}. It is also speculated in the anime that the Moon Stone was the reason why and how various Pokémon—Clefairy in particular—arrived in the Pokémon world.

The second appearance of an evolutionary stone occurred in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', where the Thunder Stone was introduced. This was likewise the first opportunity that a Pokémon belonging to a main character was given to evolve by stone. [[Ash's Pikachu]], however, refused the offer, intending to beat [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} as a Pikachu. He kept the Thunder Stone on hand, in case Pikachu ever wanted to evolve; however, in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]'', the same scenario occurred and Pikachu still refused to evolve. Seeing his determination of not evolving, {{TRT}} stole it, planning to sell it.

The remaining [[Generation I]] evolutionary stones made their debut in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'', as part of a collection held by the [[Eevee brothers]]. Additionally, two of the Eevee brothers offered a Fire Stone and Thunder Stone to {{an|Brock}} and {{Ash}}, respectively, to evolve their {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} and Pikachu, though both refused.

A forest that appeared in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'', was a reported hotbed of Leaf Stones, and the radiation from these stones in the forest was so strong as to induce Evolution in [[Melvin]]'s {{p|Exeggcute}}, which proceeded to cause chaos by hypnotizing a horde of other Exeggutor.

A fake Leaf Stone, made by Team Rocket, appeared in ''[[EP068|Make Room for Gloom]]'', where the discovery of its nature as a fake was central to the episode.

A real Leaf Stone finally appeared at the very end of ''[[PK04|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]''. With it, the {{p|Exeggcute}} that had been following [[Misty's Togepi]] around evolved into an {{p|Exeggutor}}.

Ash won a Sun Stone in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]] during ''[[EP161|The Bug Stops Here]]'', later using it to evolve a {{p|Sunkern}} in ''[[EP187|Moving Pictures]]''.

Fire Stones played an important role in ''[[EP190|The Stolen Stones!]]'', where they were intended to be delivered to a stadium to be used as a prize for competitors there.

Both the Leaf Stone and Sun Stone appear in ''[[EP239|Whichever Way the Wind Blows]]'' as a demonstration of the [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branch]] in {{p|Gloom}}'s [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary line]].

A Water Stone belonging to [[Samantha]] appears in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]'' and is used by Brock's Lombre to evolve into {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}}. This is the first time that a main character's Pokémon evolves via an evolutionary stone on-screen, although it is likely that [[James's Victreebel|James's Weepinbell]] was evolved by way of a Leaf Stone prior to ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]''.

A Moon Stone appeared in a flashback in ''[[AG060|Delcatty Got Your Tongue?]]'', evolving [[Dr. Abby]]'s Skitty into a Delcatty.

In ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]'', {{an|Dawn}} gave an Everstone to her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} to prevent him from evolving until he changes his mind about his decision not to.

{{an|Professor Oak}} gave a Water Stone to a wild Lombre in ''[[DP139|A Faux Oak Finish!]]'', while a Dusk Stone was central to the plot of ''[[DP148|Try for the Family Stone!]]''.

[[Ursula]] used a Fire Stone and a Water Stone to evolve her two Eevee in ''[[DP174|Last Call, First Round!]]'', making them a Flareon and Vaporeon, for use in the Grand Festival.

Ash had to find a Thunder Stone as part of a scavenger hunt in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]''. He came across a young man in possession of one who tried to toss it to him from a long distance. The Thunder Stone nearly came in contact with Pikachu but he jumped out of the way just in time leaving Ash to catch it.

''[[BW135|Mystery on a Deserted Island!]]'' featured all evolutionary stones available as of [[Generation V]].

A Thunder Stone appeared in ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]'' as a part of {{an|Clemont}}'s explanation of how Pokémon Evolution works, Pikachu's evolution into Raichu working as an example of stone-induced Evolution.

A full set of evolutionary stones was seen on display in a stone shop in [[Geosenge Town]] in ''[[XY031|The Cave of Trials!]]''. In addition, an unnamed Trainer used a Sun Stone bought from the shop to evolve his {{p|Helioptile}} into {{p|Heliolisk}}. Clemont then revealed that he had also used a Sun Stone to evolve his own Helioptile into {{TP|Clemont|Heliolisk}}.

Evolutionary stones do not seem to be required for evolution in the anime as they are in the games. [[List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio#Victreebel|James's second Weepinbell]] evolved without a Leaf Stone in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', though this may just be an example of [[anime physics]]. In addition, Pokémon that evolve via proximity of evolutionary stones apparently seem to control their evolutionary urges and physically touch the stone without evolving, as evidenced by Pikachu whacking away the Thunder Stone when refusing to evolve the first time, as well as a Clefairy holding onto a Moon Stone for prolonged periods of time before delivering it to the larger Moon Stone without evolving.

==In the manga==
===In [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga===
[[File:Evolutionary stones EToP.png|thumb|250px|Evolutionary stones in a shop in [[Stone Town]]]]
In ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]'', {{Ash}}, [[Professor Oak]], and [[Bill]] witness a {{p|Clefairy}} evolution ceremony involving a large Moon Stone.

The focus of the chapter ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' is evolutionary stones. {{an|Misty}} hopes to buy a Water Stone for her {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} in [[Stone Town]], a town on Dream Island where all the evolutionary stones in the Pokémon world come from. However, she cannot afford one, remarking that an inexpensive one might make the evolution go bad.

She is later given a Water Stone by [[Mikey]], who is being pressured to join the "[[Knights of the E Stone]]", a club which requires members to own a Pokémon evolved by an evolutionary stone. By battling club members, [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] and Mikey prove to the leaders that Pokémon which have evolved by evolutionary stone are not necessarily superior to their unevolved counterparts.

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Evolutionary stones Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Leaf Stone, Thunder Stone, Water Stone, and Fire Stone in Pokémon Adventures]]
[[File:Moon Stone Adventures.png|thumb|150px|left|A Moon Stone in Pokémon Adventures]]
A Moon Stone was first mentioned by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in ''[[PS006|Gyarados Splashes In!]]'' as a rock with a crescent moon-shaped indentation that boosts a Pokémon's power immensely. In the next round, ''[[PS007|Raging Rhydon]]'', [[Team Rocket]] searched for one in [[Mt. Moon]], however, it was {{adv|Red}} who eventually found it. Later on, Red used this Moon Stone to evolve {{adv|Green}}'s {{p|Clefairy}} during the [[Silph Co.]] catastrophe.

In ''[[PS011|Buzz Off, Electabuzz!]]'', [[Poli|Red's Poliwhirl]] was able to evolve into a {{p|Poliwrath}} with the help of a Water Stone when they were thrown into the water in {{ci|Vermilion}} Harbor, although the cause of its evolution wasn't revealed until the {{chap|Yellow}}.

In ''[[PS058|The Kindest Tentacruel]]'', {{adv|Yellow}} found a Leaf Stone at the bottom of Vermilion Harbor, but the Fire, Thunder, and Water Stones were missing. Later, it was revealed {{adv|Giovanni}} gave them to Red so he could evolve and [[devolution|devolve]] his [[Vee|Eevee]] freely.

In ''[[PS172|The Last Battle VI]]'', {{adv|Gold}}'s {{DL|Gold (Adventures)|Sunbo|Sunkern}} evolved into a {{p|Sunflora}} because the sun's energy reflected off of the rocks near [[Ilex Forest]] replicated the Sun Stone's effects.

In ''[[PS194|Guile from Mawile]]'', {{adv|Ruby}}'s [[Kiki|Skitty]] evolved into a {{p|Delcatty}} due to being exposed to one of {{Steven}}'s Moon Stones.

In ''[[PS288|Give It Your Best, Blastoise]]'', during the battle against the {{adv|Deoxys}} Duplicates, {{adv|Green}} evolved her [[Jiggly]] and Nido into {{p|Wigglytuff}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}}, respectively, using two Moon Stones.

In ''[[PS445|Dealing With A Koffing Fit]]'', {{adv|Silver}}'s {{p|Murkrow}} evolved into a {{p|Honchkrow}} due to gaining experience while holding a Dusk Stone, which had been given to Silver by Green.

In ''[[PS459|All About Arceus VIII]]'', {{adv|Gold}}'s [[Togebo|Togetic]] evolved into a {{p|Togekiss}} shortly after evolving from a {{p|Togepi}} using the Shiny Stone that had been given to it by [[Lance]].

In ''[[PS520|Triple Threat]]'', [[Cilan]], [[Chili]], and [[Cress]] used a Leaf Stone, Fire Stone, and Water Stone to evolve their {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}, {{TP|Chili|Pansear}}, and {{p|Panpour}} into {{p|Simisage}}, {{p|Simisear}}, and {{p|Simipour}}, respectively, during their battle against the [[Shadow Triad]].

In ''[[PS522|Homecoming]]'', it was revealed that {{adv|Black}}'s [[Musha|Munna]] evolved into a {{p|Musharna}} using [[Caitlin]]'s Moon Stone.

In [[PAORAS00]], {{adv|Sapphire}}'s Kiruru evolved into a {{p|Gallade}} due to a Dawn Stone hitting him while training with Rara, who had evolved into a {{p|Gardevoir}}. Later, Steven found another Dawn Stone on the ground.

===In the [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]] manga===
In ''[[DPA19|(Violent) Earthquake! Cyrus's Consuming Ambition!!]]'', it was revealed that [[Mitsumi]] secretly attached an Everstone to [[Hareta]]'s {{p|Piplup}} before he started his journey, because she had thought Hareta would learn faster with weaker Pokémon. After Mitsumi removed it, Piplup immediately evolved into {{p|Prinplup}}, then into {{TP|Hareta|Empoleon}}.

===In the [[Pokémon Zensho]] manga===
In ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'', {{Zensho|Satoshi}}'s {{p|Pikachu}} used a Thunder Stone to evolve itself into a {{p|Raichu}} before Satoshi left to challenge the [[Elite Four]].

==In the TCG==
The Moon Stone and Dusk Stone are featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] on a {{TCG|Trainer card}} and on Pokémon cards as held items. These held items work in the same fashion as Poké-Bodies, in that the effect the item provides is active whenever the Pokémon is in play. The following is a list of cards named or including Moon Stone or Dusk Stone.

==Trivia==
* Of all {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by evolutionary stone}}, only {{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Gloom}} can use multiple ones; together they can use any of the stones introduced in Generation I or II except for the Moon Stone.
* Only four Pokémon that evolve by stone can evolve using another method: {{p|Poliwhirl}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Kirlia}}, and {{p|Snorunt}}.
* Only {{type|Grass}} Pokémon evolve using the Leaf Stone.
** Simisage is the only Pokémon evolved via Leaf Stone which is not dual-typed.
* The {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Oval Stone}} is sometimes considered an evolutionary stone, and can even be selected to be used like one. However, unlike other evolutionary stones, the Oval Stone does not trigger Evolution in any Pokémon when it is used on them. It must instead be held and the Pokémon leveled up, making it an [[evolution-inducing held item]].
* All Pokémon that evolve with the Fire Stone are in the {{egg3|Field}}.
* Through {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Evolutionary stone glitch|a glitch}} in the Generation I games, Pokémon can be evolved without the use of a stone, provided that the player has sent out the correct Pokémon in the same battle that a Pokémon that evolves using a stone levels up.
* The Dawn Stone induces Evolution in only two Pokémon species, {{p|Kirlia}} and {{p|Snorunt}}, the fewest of any stone. Both of them only work if the Pokémon is of a specific gender.
** This also makes it currently the only stone that only evolves Pokémon introduced in a single generation, as Kirlia and Snorunt were both introduced in [[Generation III]], likewise, their evolutions were both introduced in Generation IV.
** It is also the only stone not to gain a new use in [[Generation V]].
* The Fire Stone is the only one not used in a three-stage evolutionary line.
* The {{wp|Sunstone|Sun Stone}} and {{wp|Moonstone (gemstone)|Moon Stone}} share their names with actual {{wp|gemstones}}.
* Though six Pokémon families evolve with the Moon Stone, only the four introduced in [[Generation I]] can be readily caught in a {{ball|Moon}}, since Moon Balls can be acquired only from [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]].
* The Leaf Stone is the only evolutionary stone that cannot be sold to the {{DL|Item maniac|ore maniac}} in {{2v2|Black|White}}; this was corrected in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.
* Due to the limited number of characters allocated for text entry boxes in Generations I through V, the Thunder Stone was then written as "Thunderstone".

Evolution stone

Emiel03: /* List of stones */ Added Victory Road as Dawn Stone location in ORAS (from Wally)

[[File:Branched evolution.png|thumb|250px|right|Gloom's [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branched]] [[evolution family]] as demonstrated in the anime: both of Gloom's potential evolutions require an evolutionary stone.]]
An '''evolutionary stone''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|進化の石|しんかのいし}}''' ''Evolution stone'') is a stone-like [[item]] that radiates a mysterious energy that causes some [[Pokémon (species)|species of Pokémon]] to [[Evolution|evolve]].

Another stone, the Everstone, is different in that it radiates a type of energy that prevents Evolution in the holders; however, if a Pokémon holding the Everstone has an evolutionary stone used on it, it will still evolve.

Evolutionary stones may be used at any time, and cause instant Evolution in the Pokémon they are used on, which cannot be canceled. With the exception of the Everstone, which must be held for its effects to take place, all evolutionary stones are applied directly to the Pokémon. All stones that cause Evolution in a Pokémon are consumed upon that Pokémon's evolution.

Many Pokémon that result from a stone-based evolution have vastly different [[level]]-up [[move|learnset]]s than their pre-evolutionary forms, with several learning no moves after Evolution at all.

==In the anime==
[[File:Large Moon Stone.png|thumb|200px|A giant Moon Stone]]
Evolutionary stones are showcased somewhat rarely in [[Pokémon anime|the anime]], as only a relative few Pokémon are able to evolve by using them. Despite this, they were among the earliest of items to have been showcased in the anime, appearing as early as ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', where a rather large Moon Stone appeared deep within [[Mt. Moon]]. It was being worshipped by a group of {{p|Clefairy}} who lived there, and was soon stolen by Team Rocket and ended up being blown up. The shards from it, however, rained down on the Clefairy and caused some of them to evolve into {{p|Clefable}}. It is also speculated in the anime that the Moon Stone was the reason why and how various Pokémon—Clefairy in particular—arrived in the Pokémon world.

The second appearance of an evolutionary stone occurred in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', where the Thunder Stone was introduced. This was likewise the first opportunity that a Pokémon belonging to a main character was given to evolve by stone. [[Ash's Pikachu]], however, refused the offer, intending to beat [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} as a Pikachu. He kept the Thunder Stone on hand, in case Pikachu ever wanted to evolve; however, in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]'', the same scenario occurred and Pikachu still refused to evolve. Seeing his determination of not evolving, {{TRT}} stole it, planning to sell it.

The remaining [[Generation I]] evolutionary stones made their debut in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'', as part of a collection held by the [[Eevee brothers]]. Additionally, two of the Eevee brothers offered a Fire Stone and Thunder Stone to {{an|Brock}} and {{Ash}}, respectively, to evolve their {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} and Pikachu, though both refused.

A forest that appeared in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'', was a reported hotbed of Leaf Stones, and the radiation from these stones in the forest was so strong as to induce Evolution in [[Melvin]]'s {{p|Exeggcute}}, which proceeded to cause chaos by hypnotizing a horde of other Exeggutor.

A fake Leaf Stone, made by Team Rocket, appeared in ''[[EP068|Make Room for Gloom]]'', where the discovery of its nature as a fake was central to the episode.

A real Leaf Stone finally appeared at the very end of ''[[PK04|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]''. With it, the {{p|Exeggcute}} that had been following [[Misty's Togepi]] around evolved into an {{p|Exeggutor}}.

Ash won a Sun Stone in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]] during ''[[EP161|The Bug Stops Here]]'', later using it to evolve a {{p|Sunkern}} in ''[[EP187|Moving Pictures]]''.

Fire Stones played an important role in ''[[EP190|The Stolen Stones!]]'', where they were intended to be delivered to a stadium to be used as a prize for competitors there.

Both the Leaf Stone and Sun Stone appear in ''[[EP239|Whichever Way the Wind Blows]]'' as a demonstration of the [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branch]] in {{p|Gloom}}'s [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary line]].

A Water Stone belonging to [[Samantha]] appears in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]'' and is used by Brock's Lombre to evolve into {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}}. This is the first time that a main character's Pokémon evolves via an evolutionary stone on-screen, although it is likely that [[James's Victreebel|James's Weepinbell]] was evolved by way of a Leaf Stone prior to ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]''.

A Moon Stone appeared in a flashback in ''[[AG060|Delcatty Got Your Tongue?]]'', evolving [[Dr. Abby]]'s Skitty into a Delcatty.

In ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]'', {{an|Dawn}} gave an Everstone to her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} to prevent him from evolving until he changes his mind about his decision not to.

{{an|Professor Oak}} gave a Water Stone to a wild Lombre in ''[[DP139|A Faux Oak Finish!]]'', while a Dusk Stone was central to the plot of ''[[DP148|Try for the Family Stone!]]''.

[[Ursula]] used a Fire Stone and a Water Stone to evolve her two Eevee in ''[[DP174|Last Call, First Round!]]'', making them a Flareon and Vaporeon, for use in the Grand Festival.

Ash had to find a Thunder Stone as part of a scavenger hunt in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]''. He came across a young man in possession of one who tried to toss it to him from a long distance. The Thunder Stone nearly came in contact with Pikachu but he jumped out of the way just in time leaving Ash to catch it.

''[[BW135|Mystery on a Deserted Island!]]'' featured all evolutionary stones available as of [[Generation V]].

A Thunder Stone appeared in ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]'' as a part of {{an|Clemont}}'s explanation of how Pokémon Evolution works, Pikachu's evolution into Raichu working as an example of stone-induced Evolution.

A full set of evolutionary stones was seen on display in a stone shop in [[Geosenge Town]] in ''[[XY031|The Cave of Trials!]]''. In addition, an unnamed Trainer used a Sun Stone bought from the shop to evolve his {{p|Helioptile}} into {{p|Heliolisk}}. Clemont then revealed that he had also used a Sun Stone to evolve his own Helioptile into {{TP|Clemont|Heliolisk}}.

Evolutionary stones do not seem to be required for evolution in the anime as they are in the games. [[List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio#Victreebel|James's second Weepinbell]] evolved without a Leaf Stone in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', though this may just be an example of [[anime physics]]. In addition, Pokémon that evolve via proximity of evolutionary stones apparently seem to control their evolutionary urges and physically touch the stone without evolving, as evidenced by Pikachu whacking away the Thunder Stone when refusing to evolve the first time, as well as a Clefairy holding onto a Moon Stone for prolonged periods of time before delivering it to the larger Moon Stone without evolving.

==In the manga==
===In [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga===
[[File:Evolutionary stones EToP.png|thumb|250px|Evolutionary stones in a shop in [[Stone Town]]]]
In ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]'', {{Ash}}, [[Professor Oak]], and [[Bill]] witness a {{p|Clefairy}} evolution ceremony involving a large Moon Stone.

The focus of the chapter ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' is evolutionary stones. {{an|Misty}} hopes to buy a Water Stone for her {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} in [[Stone Town]], a town on Dream Island where all the evolutionary stones in the Pokémon world come from. However, she cannot afford one, remarking that an inexpensive one might make the evolution go bad.

She is later given a Water Stone by [[Mikey]], who is being pressured to join the "[[Knights of the E Stone]]", a club which requires members to own a Pokémon evolved by an evolutionary stone. By battling club members, [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] and Mikey prove to the leaders that Pokémon which have evolved by evolutionary stone are not necessarily superior to their unevolved counterparts.

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Evolutionary stones Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Leaf Stone, Thunder Stone, Water Stone, and Fire Stone in Pokémon Adventures]]
[[File:Moon Stone Adventures.png|thumb|150px|left|A Moon Stone in Pokémon Adventures]]
A Moon Stone was first mentioned by {{adv|Professor Oak}} in ''[[PS006|Gyarados Splashes In!]]'' as a rock with a crescent moon-shaped indentation that boosts a Pokémon's power immensely. In the next round, ''[[PS007|Raging Rhydon]]'', [[Team Rocket]] searched for one in [[Mt. Moon]], however, it was {{adv|Red}} who eventually found it. Later on, Red used this Moon Stone to evolve {{adv|Green}}'s {{p|Clefairy}} during the [[Silph Co.]] catastrophe.

In ''[[PS011|Buzz Off, Electabuzz!]]'', [[Poli|Red's Poliwhirl]] was able to evolve into a {{p|Poliwrath}} with the help of a Water Stone when they were thrown into the water in {{ci|Vermilion}} Harbor, although the cause of its evolution wasn't revealed until the {{chap|Yellow}}.

In ''[[PS058|The Kindest Tentacruel]]'', {{adv|Yellow}} found a Leaf Stone at the bottom of Vermilion Harbor, but the Fire, Thunder, and Water Stones were missing. Later, it was revealed {{adv|Giovanni}} gave them to Red so he could evolve and [[devolution|devolve]] his [[Vee|Eevee]] freely.

In ''[[PS172|The Last Battle VI]]'', {{adv|Gold}}'s {{DL|Gold (Adventures)|Sunbo|Sunkern}} evolved into a {{p|Sunflora}} because the sun's energy reflected off of the rocks near [[Ilex Forest]] replicated the Sun Stone's effects.

In ''[[PS194|Guile from Mawile]]'', {{adv|Ruby}}'s [[Kiki|Skitty]] evolved into a {{p|Delcatty}} due to being exposed to one of {{Steven}}'s Moon Stones.

In ''[[PS288|Give It Your Best, Blastoise]]'', during the battle against the {{adv|Deoxys}} Duplicates, {{adv|Green}} evolved her [[Jiggly]] and Nido into {{p|Wigglytuff}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}}, respectively, using two Moon Stones.

In ''[[PS445|Dealing With A Koffing Fit]]'', {{adv|Silver}}'s {{p|Murkrow}} evolved into a {{p|Honchkrow}} due to gaining experience while holding a Dusk Stone, which had been given to Silver by Green.

In ''[[PS459|All About Arceus VIII]]'', {{adv|Gold}}'s [[Togebo|Togetic]] evolved into a {{p|Togekiss}} shortly after evolving from a {{p|Togepi}} using the Shiny Stone that had been given to it by [[Lance]].

In ''[[PS520|Triple Threat]]'', [[Cilan]], [[Chili]], and [[Cress]] used a Leaf Stone, Fire Stone, and Water Stone to evolve their {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}, {{TP|Chili|Pansear}}, and {{p|Panpour}} into {{p|Simisage}}, {{p|Simisear}}, and {{p|Simipour}}, respectively, during their battle against the [[Shadow Triad]].

In ''[[PS522|Homecoming]]'', it was revealed that {{adv|Black}}'s [[Musha|Munna]] evolved into a {{p|Musharna}} using [[Caitlin]]'s Moon Stone.

In [[PAORAS00]], {{adv|Sapphire}}'s Kiruru evolved into a {{p|Gallade}} due to a Dawn Stone hitting him while training with Rara, who had evolved into a {{p|Gardevoir}}. Later, Steven found another Dawn Stone on the ground.

===In the [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]] manga===
In ''[[DPA19|(Violent) Earthquake! Cyrus's Consuming Ambition!!]]'', it was revealed that [[Mitsumi]] secretly attached an Everstone to [[Hareta]]'s {{p|Piplup}} before he started his journey, because she had thought Hareta would learn faster with weaker Pokémon. After Mitsumi removed it, Piplup immediately evolved into {{p|Prinplup}}, then into {{TP|Hareta|Empoleon}}.

===In the [[Pokémon Zensho]] manga===
In ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'', {{Zensho|Satoshi}}'s {{p|Pikachu}} used a Thunder Stone to evolve itself into a {{p|Raichu}} before Satoshi left to challenge the [[Elite Four]].

==In the TCG==
The Moon Stone and Dusk Stone are featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] on a {{TCG|Trainer card}} and on Pokémon cards as held items. These held items work in the same fashion as Poké-Bodies, in that the effect the item provides is active whenever the Pokémon is in play. The following is a list of cards named or including Moon Stone or Dusk Stone.

==Trivia==
* Of all {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by evolutionary stone}}, only {{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Gloom}} can use multiple ones; together they can use any of the stones introduced in Generation I or II except for the Moon Stone.
* Only four Pokémon that evolve by stone can evolve using another method: {{p|Poliwhirl}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Kirlia}}, and {{p|Snorunt}}.
* Only {{type|Grass}} Pokémon evolve using the Leaf Stone.
** Simisage is the only Pokémon evolved via Leaf Stone which is not dual-typed.
* The {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Oval Stone}} is sometimes considered an evolutionary stone, and can even be selected to be used like one. However, unlike other evolutionary stones, the Oval Stone does not trigger Evolution in any Pokémon when it is used on them. It must instead be held and the Pokémon leveled up, making it an [[evolution-inducing held item]].
* All Pokémon that evolve with the Fire Stone are in the {{egg3|Field}}.
* Through {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Evolutionary stone glitch|a glitch}} in the Generation I games, Pokémon can be evolved without the use of a stone, provided that the player has sent out the correct Pokémon in the same battle that a Pokémon that evolves using a stone levels up.
* The Dawn Stone induces Evolution in only two Pokémon species, {{p|Kirlia}} and {{p|Snorunt}}, the fewest of any stone. Both of them only work if the Pokémon is of a specific gender.
** This also makes it currently the only stone that only evolves Pokémon introduced in a single generation, as Kirlia and Snorunt were both introduced in [[Generation III]], likewise, their evolutions were both introduced in Generation IV.
** It is also the only stone not to gain a new use in [[Generation V]].
* The Fire Stone is the only one not used in a three-stage evolutionary line.
* The {{wp|Sunstone|Sun Stone}} and {{wp|Moonstone (gemstone)|Moon Stone}} share their names with actual {{wp|gemstones}}.
* Though six Pokémon families evolve with the Moon Stone, only the four introduced in [[Generation I]] can be readily caught in a {{ball|Moon}}, since Moon Balls can be acquired only from [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]].
* The Leaf Stone is the only evolutionary stone that cannot be sold to the {{DL|Item maniac|ore maniac}} in {{2v2|Black|White}}; this was corrected in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.
* Due to the limited number of characters allocated for text entry boxes in Generations I through V, the Thunder Stone was then written as "Thunderstone".

'''Slakoth''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ナマケロ''' ''Namakero'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Vigoroth}} starting at [[level]] 18, which evolves into {{p|Slaking}} starting at [[level]] 36.

==Biology==
Slakoth is a brown, quadruped Pokémon with sloth-like qualities. It has coarse, shaggy fur with dark brown stripes on its back. It has a scruff of fur on the top of its head and a large, pig-like pink nose. Its pink eyelids are visible when it has a sleepy expression. Its underbelly, rear, and the paw pads on its back feet are also pink. It has long arms with two sharp claws.

It lolls around and sleeps for more than twenty hours a day, which can makes those around it drowsy. Since it does not move very much, it does not need much food. It only eats three leaves each day. Its heart only beats once a minute. It is capable of regaining lost energy through use of its former [[signature move]], {{m|Slack Off}}. Its nest does not change during its entire life, but can travel far by swimming in rivers. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Marcel Slakoth.png|thumb|210px|left|Slakoth in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
[[Norman]]'s Slakoth appeared in ''[[AG069|Love, Petalburg Style]]'' and also in ''[[AG070|Balance of Power]]'' where it battled [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Ash's Torkoal]]. It proved to be a strong battler against {{AP|Pikachu}} with its powerful {{m|Blizzard}} attack, but it lost to {{AP|Torkoal}}.

In ''[[AG088|The Garden of Eatin']]'', there were many Slakoth who lived in the [[Banana Slakoth Garden]]. A {{p|Snorlax}} was eating all the bananas in the garden and no one was able to stop it until one of the Slakoth in the garden evolved into {{p|Vigoroth}} and defeated it.

===Minor appearances===
Slakoth first appeared in [[Max]]'s flashback in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]''.

A Slakoth appeared in ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]'' at the ship's Pokémon Center.

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

A Slakoth appeared in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Slakoth is one of fourteen Pokémon that one could collect [[foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
===Origin===
As its name implies, it appears to have been based on sloths, specifically two-toed sloths.
====Name origin====
Slakoth is a combination of ''slack'' (to be lazy) and ''{{wp|sloth}}''. It is also a play on the phrase "to slack off."

Namakero is derived from 樹懶 ''namakemono'' (sloth).

'''Slakoth''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ナマケロ''' ''Namakero'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Vigoroth}} starting at [[level]] 18, which evolves into {{p|Slaking}} starting at [[level]] 36.

==Biology==
Slakoth is a brown, quadruped Pokémon with sloth-like qualities. It has coarse, shaggy fur with dark brown stripes on its back. It has a scruff of fur on the top of its head and a large, pig-like pink nose. Its pink eyelids are visible when it has a sleepy expression. Its underbelly, rear, and the paw pads on its back feet are also pink. It has long arms with two sharp claws.

It lolls around and sleeps for more than twenty hours a day, which can makes those around it drowsy. Since it does not move very much, it does not need much food. It only eats three leaves each day. Its heart only beats once a minute. It is capable of regaining lost energy through use of its former [[signature move]], {{m|Slack Off}}. Its nest does not change during its entire life, but can travel far by swimming in rivers. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Marcel Slakoth.png|thumb|210px|left|Slakoth in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
[[Norman]]'s Slakoth appeared in ''[[AG069|Love, Petalburg Style]]'' and also in ''[[AG070|Balance of Power]]'' where it battled [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Ash's Torkoal]]. It proved to be a strong battler against {{AP|Pikachu}} with its powerful {{m|Blizzard}} attack, but it lost to {{AP|Torkoal}}.

In ''[[AG088|The Garden of Eatin']]'', there were many Slakoth who lived in the [[Banana Slakoth Garden]]. A {{p|Snorlax}} was eating all the bananas in the garden and no one was able to stop it until one of the Slakoth in the garden evolved into {{p|Vigoroth}} and defeated it.

===Minor appearances===
Slakoth first appeared in [[Max]]'s flashback in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]''.

A Slakoth appeared in ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]'' at the ship's Pokémon Center.

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

A Slakoth appeared in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Slakoth is one of fourteen Pokémon that one could collect [[foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
===Origin===
As its name implies, it appears to have been based on sloths, specifically two-toed sloths.
====Name origin====
Slakoth is a combination of ''slack'' (to be lazy) and ''{{wp|sloth}}''. It is also a play on the phrase "to slack off."

Namakero is derived from 樹懶 ''namakemono'' (sloth).

{{types}}
{{redirect|Ground|the Egg Group formerly known as the Ground Egg Group|Field (Egg Group)}}
The '''Ground type''' (Japanese: '''じめんタイプ''' ''Ground type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Ground-type Pokémon are [[Giovanni]] of [[Viridian City]], [[Bertha]] of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], and [[Clay]] of [[Driftveil City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Ground-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==

===Offense===
Offensively, the Ground type is one of the most powerful offensive types, with the others being {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Fire}}. It is the only type super-effective against {{t|Electric}}, and is super-effective against five types in total; only the {{t|Fighting}} type is as powerful as this. It is also super-effective against two of the best defensive types, {{t|Poison}} and {{t|Steel}}. {{t|Grass}}- and {{t|Bug}}-type Pokémon do resist Ground, but this is largely mitigated by the common Grass/Poison and Bug/Poison typing. This, combined with the fact that the highly damaging and popular {{m|Earthquake}} has been available as [[TM26]] in every Generation, makes Ground a very potent type offensively. Given that the types Ground hits with super-effective damage (with the arguable exception of {{t|Poison}}) are fairly common types, and its unique ability to hit Electric types super effectively, Ground type is commonly considered as one of the best offensive types, along with {{t|Fighting}}.

The greatest disadvantage of the Ground type is that it does not affect the very common {{type|Flying}} Pokémon at all (unless the Flying type uses {{m|Roost}}), nor Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}} (unless {{m|Smack Down}} is used on it). However, all fully-evolved Ground-type Pokémon are able to learn Rock-type attacks, which somewhat alleviates the problem.

===Defense===
Defensively, the Ground-type is somewhat risky. Despite having above average {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Defense}}, they have below average {{stat|Special Defense}} and {{stat|Speed}}. Combining that with weaknesses to the common {{t|Water}}, {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Ice}} types (all three of which have generally special movesets), makes tanking special hits quite difficult for Ground-types. It only resists {{t|Poison}}, a type rarely used offensively, and {{t|Rock}}. It is, however, immune to the {{t|Electric}} type, posing a great advantage due to the minority of Pokémon resisting {{t|Electric}} moves that are not {{type|Electric}} themselves, and the fact that as of Generation VI, only {{p|Zekrom}}, Mega {{p|Ampharos}}, Mega {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Rotom}}'s Mow Form have a ¼ resistance to {{t|Electric}}. Like Electric-types, they are also immune to the crippling {{m|Thunder Wave}} (though not immune to [[Paralysis (status condition)|paralysis]] itself, with the exception of {{p|Stunfisk}}).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Ground-type moves are typically {{OBP|Tough|condition}} moves. None of them are considered {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 62 Ground-type Pokémon or 8.3% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 7th most common type.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with Ground-type===
User of {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into Ground-type after it is hit with a Ground-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into Ground-type when it uses a Ground-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds a [[Earth Plate]], it will become a Ground-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Ground-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and turn into Ground-type.

==Trivia==
* Generation I introduced the most Ground-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 14, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ground-type Pokémon, with two.
* Generation I introduced the most Ground-type moves of any Generation, with six, and Generations IV, V, and VI introduced the fewest Ground-type moves, with two each.
* Generation VI is the only generation that introduced no pure Ground-type Pokémon.
* Along with the {{t|Fighting}} type, Ground-type moves are super-effective against the most types: five.
* Although Ground-type Pokémon are immune to Electric-type attacks, the Ability {{a|Static}} still affects them.
* In the anime, Ground-type Pokémon's immunity to Electric-type attacks is treated inconsistently, sometimes upheld and sometimes ignored. The anime (in particular ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'') also implies that Ground type's immunity to Electric types has a limit depending on the voltage, as Brock's Onix, when first fighting Pikachu, was completely unaffected by Pikachu's electricity, but in the rematch, Pikachu's electric attacks, having been boosted at an abandoned hydroelectric plant, were giving Onix a noticeable degree of pain, although it still wasn't enough to completely incapacitate it, as well as environmental factors (such as water being sprayed on it).
* All types that resist the {{t|Flying}} type are weak to Ground, and vice versa; however, the type combinations Electric/Flying, Rock/Flying, and Steel/Flying still resist both due to the Flying type's immunity to Ground moves.
* More Pokémon are immune to Ground-type moves than any other type, as both {{t|Flying}} Pokémon and {{a|Levitate|Levitating}} Pokémon are immune to Ground.
* The Ground type is the only type in the Generation II games and their remakes that a notable Trainer doesn't specialize in.
** However, [[Giovanni]], a former notable Trainer, can be battled in the remakes from the use of an event.

Emiel03: /* Characteristics */

{{types}}
{{redirect|Ground|the Egg Group formerly known as the Ground Egg Group|Field (Egg Group)}}
The '''Ground type''' (Japanese: '''じめんタイプ''' ''Ground type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Ground-type Pokémon are [[Giovanni]] of [[Viridian City]], [[Bertha]] of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], and [[Clay]] of [[Driftveil City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Ground-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==

===Offense===
Offensively, the Ground type is one of the most powerful offensive types, with the others being {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Fire}}. It is the only type super-effective against {{t|Electric}}, and is super-effective against five types in total; only the {{t|Fighting}} type is as powerful as this. It is also super-effective against two of the best defensive types, {{t|Poison}} and {{t|Steel}}. {{t|Grass}}- and {{t|Bug}}-type Pokémon do resist Ground, but this is largely mitigated by the common Grass/Poison and Bug/Poison typing. This, combined with the fact that the highly damaging and popular {{m|Earthquake}} has been available as [[TM26]] in every Generation, makes Ground a very potent type offensively. Given that the types Ground hits with super-effective damage (with the arguable exception of {{t|Poison}}) are fairly common types, and its unique ability to hit Electric types super effectively, Ground type is commonly considered as one of the best offensive types, along with {{t|Fighting}}.

The greatest disadvantage of the Ground type is that it does not affect the very common {{type|Flying}} Pokémon at all (unless the Flying type uses {{m|Roost}}), nor Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}} (unless {{m|Smack Down}} is used on it). However, all fully-evolved Ground-type Pokémon are able to learn Rock-type attacks, which somewhat alleviates the problem.

===Defense===
Defensively, the Ground-type is somewhat risky. Despite having above average {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Defense}}, they have below average {{stat|Special Defense}} and {{stat|Speed}}. Combining that with weaknesses to the common {{t|Water}}, {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Ice}} types (all three of which have generally special movesets), makes tanking special hits quite difficult for Ground-types. It only resists {{t|Poison}}, a type rarely used offensively, and {{t|Rock}}. It is, however, immune to the {{t|Electric}} type, posing a great advantage due to the minority of Pokémon resisting {{t|Electric}} moves that are not {{type|Electric}} themselves, and the fact that as of Generation VI, only {{p|Zekrom}}, Mega {{p|Ampharos}} and {{p|Rotom}}'s Mow Form have a ¼ resistance to {{t|Electric}}. Like Electric-types, they are also immune to the crippling {{m|Thunder Wave}} (though not immune to [[Paralysis (status condition)|paralysis]] itself, with the exception of {{p|Stunfisk}}).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Ground-type moves are typically {{OBP|Tough|condition}} moves. None of them are considered {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 62 Ground-type Pokémon or 8.3% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 7th most common type.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with Ground-type===
User of {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into Ground-type after it is hit with a Ground-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into Ground-type when it uses a Ground-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds a [[Earth Plate]], it will become a Ground-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Ground-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and turn into Ground-type.

==Trivia==
* Generation I introduced the most Ground-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 14, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ground-type Pokémon, with two.
* Generation I introduced the most Ground-type moves of any Generation, with six, and Generations IV, V, and VI introduced the fewest Ground-type moves, with two each.
* Generation VI is the only generation that introduced no pure Ground-type Pokémon.
* Along with the {{t|Fighting}} type, Ground-type moves are super-effective against the most types: five.
* Although Ground-type Pokémon are immune to Electric-type attacks, the Ability {{a|Static}} still affects them.
* In the anime, Ground-type Pokémon's immunity to Electric-type attacks is treated inconsistently, sometimes upheld and sometimes ignored. The anime (in particular ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'') also implies that Ground type's immunity to Electric types has a limit depending on the voltage, as Brock's Onix, when first fighting Pikachu, was completely unaffected by Pikachu's electricity, but in the rematch, Pikachu's electric attacks, having been boosted at an abandoned hydroelectric plant, were giving Onix a noticeable degree of pain, although it still wasn't enough to completely incapacitate it, as well as environmental factors (such as water being sprayed on it).
* All types that resist the {{t|Flying}} type are weak to Ground, and vice versa; however, the type combinations Electric/Flying, Rock/Flying, and Steel/Flying still resist both due to the Flying type's immunity to Ground moves.
* More Pokémon are immune to Ground-type moves than any other type, as both {{t|Flying}} Pokémon and {{a|Levitate|Levitating}} Pokémon are immune to Ground.
* The Ground type is the only type in the Generation II games and their remakes that a notable Trainer doesn't specialize in.
** However, [[Giovanni]], a former notable Trainer, can be battled in the remakes from the use of an event.

Emiel03: Switched around the order in which Offense and Defense were listed to be more in line with the other types

{{types}}
{{redirect|Ground|the Egg Group formerly known as the Ground Egg Group|Field (Egg Group)}}
The '''Ground type''' (Japanese: '''じめんタイプ''' ''Ground type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Ground-type Pokémon are [[Giovanni]] of [[Viridian City]], [[Bertha]] of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], and [[Clay]] of [[Driftveil City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Ground-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==

===Offense===
Offensively, the Ground type is one of the most powerful offensive types, with the others being {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Fire}}. It is the only type super-effective against {{t|Electric}}, and is super-effective against five types in total; only the {{t|Fighting}} type is as powerful as this. It is also super-effective against two of the best defensive types, {{t|Poison}} and {{t|Steel}}. {{t|Grass}}- and {{t|Bug}}-type Pokémon do resist Ground, but this is largely mitigated by the common Grass/Poison and Bug/Poison typing. This, combined with the fact that the highly damaging and popular {{m|Earthquake}} has been available as [[TM26]] in every Generation, makes Ground a very potent type offensively. Given that the types Ground hits with super-effective damage (with the arguable exception of {{t|Poison}}) are fairly common types, and its unique ability to hit Electric types super effectively, Ground type is commonly considered as one of the best offensive types, along with {{t|Fighting}}.

The greatest disadvantage of the Ground type is that it does not affect the very common {{type|Flying}} Pokémon at all (unless the Flying type uses {{m|Roost}}), nor Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}} (unless {{m|Smack Down}} is used on it). However, all fully-evolved Ground-type Pokémon are able to learn Rock-type attacks, which somewhat alleviates the problem.

===Defense===
Defensively, the Ground-type is somewhat risky. Despite having above average {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Defense}}, they have below average {{stat|Special Defense}} and {{stat|Speed}}. Combining that with weaknesses to the common {{t|Water}}, {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Ice}} types (all three of which have generally special movesets), makes tanking special hits quite difficult for Ground-types. It only resists {{t|Poison}}, a type rarely used offensively, and {{t|Rock}}. It is, however, immune to the {{t|Electric}} type, posing a great advantage due to the minority of Pokémon resisting {{t|Electric}} moves that are not {{type|Electric}} themselves, and the fact that as of Generation VI, only {{p|Zekrom}}, Mega {{p|Ampharos}} and {{p|Rotom}}'s Mow Form have a ¼ resistance to {{t|Electric}}. Like Electric-types, they are also immune to the crippling {{m|Thunder Wave}} (though not immune to [[Paralysis (status condition)|paralysis]] itself, with the exception of {{p|Stunfisk}}).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Ground-type moves are typically {{OBP|Tough|condition}} moves. None of them are considered {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 62 Ground-type Pokémon or 8.3% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 7th most common type.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with Ground-type===
User of {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into Ground-type after it is hit with a Ground-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into Ground-type when it uses a Ground-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds a [[Earth Plate]], it will become a Ground-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Ground-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and turn into Ground-type.

==Trivia==
* Generation I introduced the most Ground-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 14, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ground-type Pokémon, with two.
* Generation I introduced the most Ground-type moves of any Generation, with six, and Generations IV, V, and VI introduced the fewest Ground-type moves, with two each.
* Generation VI is the only generation that introduced no pure Ground-type Pokémon.
* Along with the {{t|Fighting}} type, Ground-type moves are super-effective against the most types: five.
* Although Ground-type Pokémon are immune to Electric-type attacks, the Ability {{a|Static}} still affects them.
* In the anime, Ground-type Pokémon's immunity to Electric-type attacks is treated inconsistently, sometimes upheld and sometimes ignored. The anime (in particular ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'') also implies that Ground type's immunity to Electric types has a limit depending on the voltage, as Brock's Onix, when first fighting Pikachu, was completely unaffected by Pikachu's electricity, but in the rematch, Pikachu's electric attacks, having been boosted at an abandoned hydroelectric plant, were giving Onix a noticeable degree of pain, although it still wasn't enough to completely incapacitate it, as well as environmental factors (such as water being sprayed on it).
* All types that resist the {{t|Flying}} type are weak to Ground, and vice versa; however, the type combinations Electric/Flying, Rock/Flying, and Steel/Flying still resist both due to the Flying type's immunity to Ground moves.
* More Pokémon are immune to Ground-type moves than any other type, as both {{t|Flying}} Pokémon and {{a|Levitate|Levitating}} Pokémon are immune to Ground.
* The Ground type is the only type in the Generation II games and their remakes that a notable Trainer doesn't specialize in.
** However, [[Giovanni]], a former notable Trainer, can be battled in the remakes from the use of an event.

'''Vibrava''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビブラーバ''' ''Vibrava'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dragon}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Trapinch}} starting at [[level]] 35 and evolves into {{p|Flygon}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
Vibrava is a dragonfly-like Pokémon. It has a small head with two yellow antennae and green bulging eyes with black oval-shaped pupils. Its mouth has two large white teeth protruding from each side. It has a skinny yellow body, four skinny black legs with slender feet, and four green, rhombus-shaped wings with black edges. There are similarly-colored rhombus shapes at the end of its tail. Vibrava's wings are not fully developed, so it is unable to fly very far. However, it is able to create vibrations and ultrasonic waves with its wings. Humans get headaches from these waves. After causing prey to faint, it uses acid to melt the prey. Vibrava lives on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrains}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Brianna Vibrava Screech.png|thumb|left|Vibrava in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Vibrava's first anime appearance was in ''[[AG106|Beg, Burrow and Steal]]''. Dozens of {{p|Trapinch}} were seen evolving into them at an underground lake. {{TRT}} made a failed attempt to steal the Vibration Pokémon despite the fact the idea {{MTR}} had of using their previous forms as nut-crackers was now foiled. The Vibrava helped {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, [[Max]], {{an|Brock}}, {{Ho|Hal}} and [[Elisa]] out of the underground labyrinth.

A {{pkmn|Coordinator}} named [[Brianna]] used a Vibrava in the battle round of the [[Pokémon Contest]] on [[Chrysanthemum Island]] in ''[[AG162|Spontaneous Combusken]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Vibrava first appeared in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', in the form of a swarm.

Vibrava were also used by random coordinators in ''[[AG121|Hi Ho Silver Wind]]'' and ''[[AG160|Harley Rides Again]]''.

It also appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.

==Trivia==
* All of Vibrava's [[base stats]] go up by exactly 30 points when it evolves into {{p|Flygon}}.
* Vibrava shares its [[species]] name with {{p|Palpitoad}} and {{p|Seismitoad}}. They are all known as the Vibration Pokémon.
* Vibrava and its evolution are the only Dragon-type Pokémon belonging in the {{egg3|Bug}}.
* {{p|Trapinch}}'s Attack stat goes down when it evolves into Vibrava

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Trapinch, Vibrava and Flygon}}
Vibrava is based on the adult stage of an {{wp|antlion}}. Often the adult antlion and dragonfly are confused with one another, and Vibrava could draw inspiration from both. In fact, some species of dragonflies are commonly called "sand dragons", which could account for Vibrava and Flygon's type combination.

====Name origin====
Vibrava may be a combination of ''vibrate'' (to shake rapidly) and ''{{wp|larva}}''. It may also derive from ''{{wp|European dragon#Dragons in Catalan mythology|Vibra}}''.

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

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charmeleon}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Charmander}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into two forms: '''Mega Charizard X''' using {{DL|Mega Stone|Charizardite X}} and '''Mega Charizard Y''' using {{DL|Mega Stone|Charizardite Y}}.

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

==Biology==
[[File:Mega Charizard X Mega Charizard Y artwork.png|thumb|230px|left|Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y.]]
Charizard is a draconic, bipedal Pokémon. It is primarily orange in coloration with a cream underside from the chest to the tip of its tail, which burns with a sizable flame. Charizard has a long neck, stern-looking blue eyes, raised nostrils, and two blunt horns protruding from the back of its rectangular head. Two fangs are visible when its mouth is closed. Two large wings with teal undersides sprout from its back, and a horn-like appendage juts out from the third joint of each wing. Charizard's arms are short and skinny compared to its robust belly, and each limb has three white claws. It has stocky legs and cream-colored soles under its feet.

As Mega Charizard X, its body and legs appear more physically fit, though its arms remain thin. Its skin turns black with a sky blue underside from the lower jaw to the tip of the tail. Two spikes with blue tips curve upward from the front and back of each shoulder, while the tips of its horns sharpen, turn blue, and curve slightly upward. Its brow and claws are larger, its snout is shorter, and its eyes are now red with white pupils. It has two small, fin-like spikes under each horn and two more down its lower neck. The lower trims of its wings are divided into large, rounded points and each third joint is adorned with a claw-like spike. Mega Charizard X breathes blue flames out the sides of its mouth, and the flame on its tail now burns blue with increased heat.<ref name="Mega">http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Charizard</ref>

When Mega Evolved as Mega Charizard Y, this Pokémon becomes more sleek and expansive in appearance, but retains its normal coloration, except for white pupils. It has three pointed horns, the middle of which is longer than the rest of its skull. Its shorter snout has larger fangs and a ridge on the nose. Its neck is shorter and its hands are much smaller, but its torso and legs are longer. Small wings develop on its wrists, while the ones on its back become larger and now have ragged edges. The back of its tail has a large thorn at the base and three smaller ones near the tip, which now burns with a longer flame. Mega Charizard Y is said to have incredible flying prowess, being able to reach incredible heights.<ref name="Mega" />

This Pokémon flies in search of powerful opponents to battle, and its fire will burn hotter as it gains experience. Its fiery breath is capable of melting boulders, massive glaciers, and has been known to accidentally cause forest fires. Charizard typically inhabit {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains and valleys}}. [[EP134|The anime]] has shown that only a weak Charizard would show off its power, and that a group of Charizard resides in the [[Charicific Valley]] in [[Johto]].
It has been shown in the anime to lick its trainer similarly to how a dog will lick its owner.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Charizard (TCG)}}
Charizard's [[Charizard (Base Set 4)|first-released TCG card]], which as part of the {{TCG|Base Set}}, was widely regarded at the height of popularity of Pokémon as the best card ever. This was because of its powerful attack, Fire Spin, and useful Pokémon Power, Energy Burn, which allowed it to convert any Energy attached to it to {{TCG|Fire}} Energy. {{m|Fire Spin}} needed four Fire Energy and could deal 100 damage, knocking out the majority of Pokémon cards. In addition, it had the highest HP then, at 120. Individual Charizard cards were sold up to as much as $150. First edition cards of this dwarfed this price at one point breaking the $1000 US price point. This Charizard card was reprinted in [[Wizards of the Coast]]'s {{TCG|Base Set 2}} and {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} sets, and released again with updated artwork in the {{TCG|Stormfront}} expansion.

==Trivia==
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Charizard and Rhyhorn shared nearly the same cry. This cry is later updated and reused for Mega Charizard Y.
* {{v2|Yellow}} is the only [[Generation I]] game in which Charizard can learn {{m|Fly}}, though it can still be traded to the older games.
* Charizard and its {{p|Charmeleon|pre-evolution}} share their [[species]] name with {{p|Flareon}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Infernape}}. They are all known as the Flame Pokémon.
* Charizard holds the distinction of being the first Pokémon to appear in the Japanese version of the [[Pokémon anime]], as it is the first one to appear in the opening. However, outside of Japan, this honor belongs to {{p|Mewtwo}}.
* Charizard is the only Pokémon in the [[Super Smash Bros.]] series that transitioned from a [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon to a playable character.
* Charizard, {{p|Typhlosion}}, and {{p|Charmander|their}} {{p|Cyndaquil|respective}} {{p|Charmeleon|evolutionary}} {{p|Quilava|lines}} have exactly the same base stats.
* Charizard was the focus of a [[Charizard Pokémon Center promotion (2010)|Pokémon Center promotion]] in April 2010.
* Charizard was voted as the favorite Pokémon by [[Official Nintendo Magazine]] readers in February 2012 as well as the number one Pokémon in {{wp|IGN}}'s "Top 100 Pokemon" list in late 2011.
* Mega Charizard Y has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} of all {{type|Fire}} Pokémon as well as all non-legendary {{t|Flying}} types.
* Charizard's [[Mega Evolution]]s have the highest base stat total of all non-legendary Fire types.
* Due to its two alternate Mega Evolutions, Charizard has the most Abilities of any [[starter Pokémon]], four.

===Origin===
Charizard resembles a {{wp|European dragon}}, certainly one of many forms told and rendered in legends.

====Name origin====
Charizard is a portmanteau of the words ''char'' (to burn) and ''lizard''.

Lizardon is a combination of ''lizard'' and either ''dragon'' or ''don'' (Ancient Greek for ''tooth'', commonly used in {{wp|dinosaur}} names).

{{Types}}
The '''Water type''' (Japanese: '''みずタイプ''' ''Water type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in the Water type include [[Misty]] of [[Cerulean City]], [[Wallace]] and [[Juan]] of [[Sootopolis City]], [[Crasher Wake]] of [[Pastoria City]], [[Cress]] of [[Striaton City]], [[Marlon]] of [[Humilau City]], and [[Siebold]] of the [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Water-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, the Water type is very strong when combined with high defensive stats. As every Water type, with the exception of {{p|Magikarp}} (and {{p|Rotom}} in its Wash form), can use {{type|Ice}} moves to counter {{t|Grass}} types (although Magikarp can learn one {{type|Flying}} move, {{m|Bounce}}, which can also counter Grass types), {{t|Electric}} types are the only true threat to Water types. That is not the case if the Pokémon in question have Abilities or subtypes that neutralize or nullifies this weakness. {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Swampert}}, {{p|Whiscash}}, {{p|Gastrodon}}, and {{p|Seismitoad}} are all immune, via their secondary type, Ground. Others, such as the {{p|Lanturn}} evolutionary line (which are also immune if they have the ability {{a|Volt Absorb}}), the {{p|Ludicolo}} evolutionary line, and {{p|Palkia}} have subtypes that are resistant to Electric.

Water types often have the most balanced attributes, usually coming with decent {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}} stats, but below average {{stat|Speed}}.

===Offense===
The Water type is also useful offensively. Water-type Pokémon can learn {{m|Ice Beam}} or {{m|Ice Punch}} to deal with {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Grass}} types, which would make their resistance to Water-type attacks irrelevant. It can be extremely useful to be super-effective against {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Rock}} types when traveling through [[cave]]s, etc. As a result of these advantages, as well as having to get through water routes using {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and even {{m|Whirlpool}} or {{m|Dive}}, most Trainers usually have at least one Water type in their [[party]]. Also, double weaknesses to Water are fairly common (largely due to the common Rock/Ground typing) {{p|Sceptile|while}} {{p|Kingdra|there}} {{p|Lotad|are}} {{p|Lombre|only}} {{p|Ludicolo|five}} {{p|Palkia|Pokémon}} that have a double resistance to Water (all of which are Water types themselves).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Water-type moves are typically {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves. But they can be from any other Contest type.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 124 Water-type Pokémon or 16.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the most common of the eighteen types.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with Water-type===
When it is raining, {{a|Forecast}} will transform the user into Water-type. User of {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into Water-type after it is hit with a Water-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into Water-type when it uses a Water-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds a [[Splash Plate]], it will become a Water-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Water-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and turn into Water-type.

Water (type)

Emiel03: /* Offense */

{{Types}}
The '''Water type''' (Japanese: '''みずタイプ''' ''Water type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in the Water type include [[Misty]] of [[Cerulean City]], [[Wallace]] and [[Juan]] of [[Sootopolis City]], [[Crasher Wake]] of [[Pastoria City]], [[Cress]] of [[Striaton City]], [[Marlon]] of [[Humilau City]], and [[Siebold]] of the [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Water-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, the Water type is very strong when combined with high defensive stats. As every Water type, with the exception of {{p|Magikarp}} (and {{p|Rotom}} in its Wash form), can use {{type|Ice}} moves to counter {{t|Grass}} types (although Magikarp can learn one {{type|Flying}} move, {{m|Bounce}}, which can also counter Grass types), {{t|Electric}} types are the only true threat to Water types. That is not the case if the Pokémon in question have Abilities or subtypes that neutralize or nullifies this weakness. {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Swampert}}, {{p|Whiscash}}, {{p|Gastrodon}}, and {{p|Seismitoad}} are all immune, via their secondary type, Ground. Others, such as the {{p|Lanturn}} evolutionary line (which are also immune if they have the ability {{a|Volt Absorb}}), the {{p|Ludicolo}} evolutionary line, and {{p|Palkia}} have subtypes that are resistant to Electric.

Water types often have the most balanced attributes, usually coming with decent {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}} stats, but below average {{stat|Speed}}.

===Offense===
The Water type is also useful offensively. Water-type Pokémon can learn {{m|Ice Beam}} or {{m|Ice Punch}} to deal with {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Grass}} types, which would make their resistance to Water-type attacks irrelevant. It can be extremely useful to be super-effective against {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Rock}} types when traveling through [[cave]]s, etc. As a result of these advantages, as well as having to get through water routes using {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and even {{m|Whirlpool}} or {{m|Dive}}, most Trainers usually have at least one Water type in their [[party]]. Also, double weaknesses to Water are fairly common (largely due to the common Rock/Ground typing) {{p|Mega Sceptile|while}} {{p|Kingdra|there}} {{p|Lotad|are}} {{p|Lombre|only}} {{p|Ludicolo|five}} {{p|Palkia|Pokémon}} that have a double resistance to Water (all of which are Water types themselves).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Water-type moves are typically {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves. But they can be from any other Contest type.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 124 Water-type Pokémon or 16.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the most common of the eighteen types.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with Water-type===
When it is raining, {{a|Forecast}} will transform the user into Water-type. User of {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into Water-type after it is hit with a Water-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into Water-type when it uses a Water-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds a [[Splash Plate]], it will become a Water-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Water-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and turn into Water-type.

Water (type)

2014-12-29T10:46:05Z

Emiel03: Added Mega Sceptile as Pokemon with double resistance to Water

{{Types}}
The '''Water type''' (Japanese: '''みずタイプ''' ''Water type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in the Water type include [[Misty]] of [[Cerulean City]], [[Wallace]] and [[Juan]] of [[Sootopolis City]], [[Crasher Wake]] of [[Pastoria City]], [[Cress]] of [[Striaton City]], [[Marlon]] of [[Humilau City]], and [[Siebold]] of the [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Water-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, the Water type is very strong when combined with high defensive stats. As every Water type, with the exception of {{p|Magikarp}} (and {{p|Rotom}} in its Wash form), can use {{type|Ice}} moves to counter {{t|Grass}} types (although Magikarp can learn one {{type|Flying}} move, {{m|Bounce}}, which can also counter Grass types), {{t|Electric}} types are the only true threat to Water types. That is not the case if the Pokémon in question have Abilities or subtypes that neutralize or nullifies this weakness. {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Swampert}}, {{p|Whiscash}}, {{p|Gastrodon}}, and {{p|Seismitoad}} are all immune, via their secondary type, Ground. Others, such as the {{p|Lanturn}} evolutionary line (which are also immune if they have the ability {{a|Volt Absorb}}), the {{p|Ludicolo}} evolutionary line, and {{p|Palkia}} have subtypes that are resistant to Electric.

Water types often have the most balanced attributes, usually coming with decent {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}} stats, but below average {{stat|Speed}}.

===Offense===
The Water type is also useful offensively. Water-type Pokémon can learn {{m|Ice Beam}} or {{m|Ice Punch}} to deal with {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Grass}} types, which would make their resistance to Water-type attacks irrelevant. It can be extremely useful to be super-effective against {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Rock}} types when traveling through [[cave]]s, etc. As a result of these advantages, as well as having to get through water routes using {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and even {{m|Whirlpool}} or {{m|Dive}}, most Trainers usually have at least one Water type in their [[party]]. Also, double weaknesses to Water are fairly common (largely due to the common Rock/Ground typing) {{p|MegaSceptile|while}} {{p|Kingdra|there}} {{p|Lotad|are}} {{p|Lombre|only}} {{p|Ludicolo|five}} {{p|Palkia|Pokémon}} that have a double resistance to Water (all of which are Water types themselves).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Water-type moves are typically {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves. But they can be from any other Contest type.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 124 Water-type Pokémon or 16.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the most common of the eighteen types.

==Trivia==
*Dragon Rage is the only Dragon move in [[Generation I]]. However, it is not affected by type match-ups, so there are no true Dragon moves in [[Generation I]].

Beach Zone

The '''Beach Zone''' (Japanese: '''ビーチゾーン''' ''Beach Zone'') is the second zone the player arrives in in the game [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]]. It's a large beach area inhabited by many {{type|Water}} Pokémon. The leader of this zone is {{p|Empoleon}}.

When the player first arrives here, it is announced that {{p|Gyarados}} has recently claimed ownership of the zone, ever since Empoleon stopped communicating with anyone. {{p|Feraligatr}} has been trying to reason with Gyarados which has only caused fights between the two, resulting in the destruction of many of the bridges in the zone. An earthquake occurs and blocks the way to the cape and to {{p|Lapras}}. When trying to cross the only bridge left, the player is challenged to a quiz by a {{p|Corsola}}. Once the player has finished the quiz, Corsola allows the player to cross the bridge and they become friends. Once the player crosses the bridge, Feraligatr asks the player to ask Gyarados if they can become friends again. After the player has talked to Feraligatr, {{p|Piplup}} is on a different island with a {{p|Wynaut}} and asks the player to go to the Meadow Zone and ask the {{p|Bidoof}} there to build a bridge. The {{p|Bidoof}} from the [[Meadow Zone]] agrees to rebuild the bridges. So the player goes back to the Beach Zone and is about to build a bridge when {{p|Sharpedo}} and {{p|Carvanha}} says that one of Gyarados's rules is that no bridges are allowed to be built and they retaliate and challenge the player to beat Pelipper's Circle Circuit first. Once that is accomplished, the pair will allow Bidoof to construct new bridges and they become your friend, thus allowing the player access to Gyarados once the player has given Bidoof 2 more bundles of lumber. The bridge leads to Piplup and Wynaut. Wynaut and Piplup thank you and Wynaut becomes your friend. Gyarados will challenge you to his attraction, Gyarados's Aqua Dash. Once the player successfully completes it, Gyarados apologizes for his rash behavior. This triggers Feraligatr to open a path to {{p|Lapras}}, who takes the player to the [[Iceberg Zone]], where Empoleon is stationed. A deflated hot air balloon lays on the beach just beside Lapras, who says the player may take it for their own if they choose. Piplup appears and says he'll take it back to the [[Meeting Place]]. The player then hops on Lapras' back and ventures off to the Iceberg Zone.

==Attractions==
===Pelipper's Circle Circuit===
[[Image:Pelippers Circle Circuit.png|thumb|right|200px|Latias flies through Pelipper's Circle Circuit.]]
In Pelipper's Circle Circuit, players tilt the Wii remote to make the Pokémon move around the screen. They must fly through rings to get points: gold is worth 100, red is worth 300, and rainbow is worth 1000. After each possible Pokémon (excluding Pikachu) has received a bonus for their performance, {{p|Latias}} is unlocked. She is the best choice when playing this attraction, being able to score over 30,000 points.

===Gyarados's Aqua Dash===
[[Image:Gyarados Aqua Dash.png|thumb|200px|right|Manaphy surfs through Gyarados's Aqua Dash.]]
In Gyarados' Aqua Dash (Japanese: '''ギャラドスのマリンスライダー''' ''Gyarados' Marine Slider''), players hold 2 to propel the Pokémon forwards, while tilting the Wii remote to turn. Hitting Carvanha or Sharpedo will slow them down, while hitting a speed boost will make them faster. After each possible Pokémon (excluding Pikachu) has received a bonus for their performance, {{p|Manaphy}} is unlocked.

'''Combusken''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ワカシャモ''' ''Wakasyamo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Fighting}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Torchic}} starting at [[level]] 16, and evolves into {{p|Blaziken}} starting at level 36.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Combusken is a chicken-like Pokémon that trains so that when it evolves, it has all the power and strength it needs. Most of Combusken’s upper body is tan in coloration, and most of its lower body orange. It has a feather crest on top of its head with three orange points and its eyes and beak are also orange. The feathers on its arm-like wings resemble a long-sleeved jacket, with three razor-sharp claws at the ends of its long arms. There are shaggy tan feathers on the top of Combusken’s thighs, and from the center of the waist is an orange-colored, pointed pattern. It has bulging thighs that seem big compared to its body. Their gray-colored legs are capable of devastating kicks, and Combusken has a small pointed tail.
====Gender differences====
A female has a smaller feather crest.

====Special abilities====
Combusken is known as the young fowl Pokémon. One of their specialties is {{m|Double Kick}}.

===Behavior===
They are very noisy and can often be heard squawking. In battle, their sharp cries are said to be very distracting.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland.gif|left|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Combusken are usually found in grasslands and plains. They are sometimes found in the hills or mountains, though.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Combusken Mega Kick.png|thumb|{{TP|May|Combusken|Blaziken}} in the anime]]
Combusken first appeared in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]''. The [[Nurse Joy]] of [[Slateport City]] was keeping a Torchic, {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Mudkip}} for a girl who was going to start being a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. The Torchic evolved and had to be hidden. After the Combusken saved a {{p|Wailord}}, Nurse Joy decided to keep it as a guard for her [[Pokémon Center]].

{{an|May}}'s Torchic evolved into a {{TP|May|Combusken|Blaziken}} in ''[[AG082|A Shroomish Skirmish]]'', and long after into a Blaziken in ''[[AG191|Once More with Reeling!]]''

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG011|Combusken|May's Pokédex|Combusken, the Young Fowl Pokémon. Combusken is the evolved form of {{p|Torchic}}. Its quick, powerful kicking legs can deliver as many as 10 kicks per second.}}

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
{{adv|Sapphire}}'s Torchic that she received from her father, [[Professor Birch]], evolved into a Combusken before her challenge of Gym leader [[Brawly]], and won against his {{p|Hariyama}} even after her partner [[Rono]] had nearly collapsed. After undergoing much training and being used against fights against the likes of [[Team Aqua]] and in friendly bouts against [[Flannery]], it evolved again to a Blaziken battling [[Winona]], though it failed to win.

==In the TCG==

==Trivia==
* Although the Pokédex entries state that it emits sharp cries to boost its concentration, it cannot learn {{m|Howl}}.
* As of Generation V, {{p|Torchic}} and Combusken are the only non-Flying-type Pokémon to learn {{m|Mirror Move}} by leveling up. This trait was shared with their second stage evolution, {{p|Blaziken}}, in Generation III.
* Combusken begins a tradition of Fire/Fighting starter evolutions that has persisted through Generations IV and V.

===Origin===
Combusken is probably based on a {{wp|cockfighting}} chicken. Combusken may also be based on the {{wp|basan}}, a fire-breathing chicken.

====Name origin====
Combusken's name is a combination of ''combust'' and ''{{wp|chicken}}''. It may also be a pun on ''combustion''.

''Wakasyamo'' is a combination of 若い ''wakai'', young, and 軍鶏 ''{{wp|Shamo (chicken)|shamo}}'', a breed of Japanese chicken once raised for fighting.

'''Steven Stone''' (Japanese: '''ツワブキ・ダイゴ''' ''Daigo Tsuwabuki'') is the Pokémon League {{tc|Champion}} in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, and a powerful wandering {{pkmn|Trainer}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, having relegated his title to [[Wallace]]. He is a {{pkmn|master}} of the {{type2|Steel}}, with a {{p|Metagross}} being the cornerstone of his team.

Steven is the son of the president of the [[Devon Corporation]], and he and his father both collect rare stones. Steven makes his home on {{ci|Mossdeep}}, and when the Elite Four are beaten in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, he will have left a {{p|Beldum}} and a note for the {{player|player}}.

==In the games==
[[File:Steven-rs.png|left|thumb|Challenging Steven Stone to battle]]
His strategy in battle is to use {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon to find the opponent's weakness.

Steven is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] region in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}. In Emerald, [[Wallace]] replaces him in this role.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Steven is a powerful wandering Trainer who gave up competing seriously to spend more time looking for rare rocks and stones. He states he was the [[Pokémon Champion]] of [[Hoenn]] at [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|some point]], but now he spends his life traveling through the region. He claims to be willing to {{m|Waterfall|climb waterfalls}} to find rare stones. With this hint, he can be found and challenged in the upper area of [[Meteor Falls]] after defeating the Elite Four.

In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, after the Hoenn Pokémon League is defeated, he offers a {{p|Beldum}} at his house in [[Mossdeep City]].

In {{game|Platinum}}, a man whose description is similar to Steven's was the previous owner of the [[villa]] in the [[Resort Area]].

He also appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. The player will first meet him after they have left the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] after collecting the {{OBP|Copycat|character}}'s Clefairy Doll, in which he will appear and inform the player that there's reports of either a {{p|Latios|blue}}{{sup|SS}} or {{p|Latias|red}}{{sup|HG}} Pokémon {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Kanto]]. The next time the player will meet him after beating {{ga|Red}} on [[Mt. Silver]], where he will appear in the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]] and let the player choose one of the Hoenn [[starter Pokémon]]. He can later be found in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], examining a shelf. After visiting and speaking to him there, he will return to the [[Silph Co.]] building offering to trade a {{p|Beldum}} for a {{p|Forretress}}.

If the player has the [[Enigma Stone]] and enters the Pewter Museum of Science, he will be talking to a researcher. When he is spoken to, he will notice the Enigma Stone and have the researcher examine it. The researcher will extract the [[Soul Dew]] from the stone and give it to the player. Steven will tell the player that Soul Dew is said to be the solidified spirits of Latias and Latios, and that it can bring out their true potential. Upon walking outside, {{p|Latias}}{{sup|SS}} or {{p|Latios}}{{sup|HG}} will be waiting outside to battle, drawn by the Soul Dew.

:''"Welcome, [[Player character|<player>]]. I was looking forward to seeing you here one day. You... What did you see on your journey with Pokémon? What did you feel, meeting so many other Trainers like you? What has awoken in you? I want you to hit me with it all! Now, bring it!"''

*When defeated
:''"I, the Champion, fall in defeat... Kudos to you, <player>! You are a truly noble Pokémon Trainer!"''

*After being defeated
:''"Congratulations! The feelings you have for your Pokémon... And the Pokémon that responded to those feelings with all their might... They came together as one, and created an even greater power. And thus, you were able to grasp victory today! You are rightfully the Hoenn region's new..."''

:''"<Player>... No, the new Champion! Come with me."'' [To [[Rival]]] ''"I'm sorry, but... From here on, only those Trainers who have become Champions may enter. You'll have to wait outside with the Professor."''

:''"This room... This is where we keep records of Pokémon that prevailed through harsh battles. It is here that the League Champions are honored. Come on, let's record your name as a Trainer who triumphed over the Pokémon League, and the names of the partners who battled with you."''

===={{game|Emerald}}====
*Before battle
:''"Oh, wow, <player>. I'm amazed you knew where to find me. Do you, uh...maybe think of me as just a rock maniac? No, that can't be right. We battled alongside each other at the Sootopolis Space Center. You should have a very good idea about how good I am. Okay, <player>, if you're going to mount a serious challenge, expect the worst!"''

*When defeated
:''"You... I had no idea you'd become so strong..."''

*After being defeated
:''"Come to think of it, ever since our paths first crossed in [[Granite Cave]] in {{to|Dewford}}, I had this feeling. I thought that you would eventually become the {{pkmn|Champion}}. My predictions usually come true. And where will you go from here? ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Fufufu, even I couldn't tell you that."''

I am investigating why <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}}, a Pokémon from Hoenn, decided to leave Hoenn to come here. <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}} is a Pokémon that has a lot to do with [[Soul Dew]], a gemlike Orb. Considering the fact that <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}} is now in Kanto, it is possible to assume that this has to do with Soul Dew. <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}} is a Pokémon that travels a great distance. It'd be difficult to find without any machine to track it with. But any Trainer will be drawn to it, won't they? I must go. May our journeys cross again."''

*After defeating Red
:''"Hello... You're breaking up... I think it depends on how my dad feels... I see... I'll be on my way. See you soon."'' (Through phone)

:''"You are... I remember your eyes. When I see a Trainer whose eyes twinkle, I always remember."''

:''"You have a Pokédex! So you are also in search of Pokémon. Let me see... I think I can help you with that. Let's say that you have stones in front of you. Which color would you pick?"''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Steven Stone.png|210px|thumb|Steven in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Steven's only appearance in the [[Pokémon anime]] was in ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]''. He helped {{Ash}}, {{Ashfr|his friends}}, and [[Team Rocket]] escape from an underground cavern.

At the end of the episode, Ash vowed to train harder so one day he could be powerful enough to battle Steven.

===Pokémon===
Steven uses these Pokémon in the anime:

|desc=Steven Stone's {{p|Aron}} was throughout the episode outside its [[Poké Ball]], when its owner was in [[Granite Cave]] looking for [[Evolutionary stone|stones]], it helped out {{m|dig}}ging at the ground. When [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} where setting another pitfall trap for {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, {{an|Brock}} and [[Max]], they also fell down being split up. Aron and its Trainer try to find the source of the crash, they found Max, Meowth and {{AP|Pikachu}}, the trio tells Steven what happened. Finding a large hole and where the others were, a group of rampaging Aron head straight towards them which they succeed to dodge them. After sending [[Team Rocket]] blasting off, they found a {{evostone|Fire Stone}}. Aron and Steven said their farewells to the group as they headed off into the distance on a sailing boat.

Aron's known moves are {{m|Dig}} and {{m|Roar}}.}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Steven Adventures.png|right|thumb|300px|Steven and his {{p|Metagross}} in ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'']]Steven met {{adv|Ruby}} while looking through the Granite Cave. During a battle with wild {{p|Mawile}}, Ruby's {{p|Skitty}} bumped into one of Steven's Moon Stones, causing it to evolve.

Steven was well-aware of the danger [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] presented, and extended an invitation to Ruby to join the fight against them. Steven invited him to help, but Ruby declined because he didn't like battling. The armlets on Steven's arms are devices he can chip away stone with, to grab and retrieve rocks he sees that are out of reach.

Later in the series, Steven confessed that he and his father, the owner of the [[Devon Corporation]], knew about the schemes of [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] quite long ago. [[Mr. Stone]] built the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] so that Steven can seal the Seafloor Cavern and no one would be able to wake {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}. The backup plan in case it fails would be to unseal {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}.

Steven later assembles the rest of the Hoenn Elite Four in order to fight against Kyogre and Groudon. With the help of {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Relicanth}}, Steven and the [[Elite Four]] unsealed the Regis. Steven took control of Registeel and gave the other two Regis to the other members of the Elite Four.

Knowing he would die in Kyogre and Groudon's battle, Steven stepped down from the position of Champion, and gave it back to [[Wallace]], who was actually the true Champion while Steven had only been a runner-up. After Kyogre and Groudon returned to their respective domains, Steven apparently died from the strain of controlling the Regis, but was later revived under mysterious circumstances when Ruby released his {{p|Celebi}}.

Steven later traveled to Sinnoh to collect the rare stones found in the region. He had purchased a [[Villa]] but sold it to {{adv|Platinum}} and returned to Hoenn at the start of the {{chap|Platinum}}.

Steven uses his Metagross to fly around Hoenn. Its magnetism allows him to float atop it.

==In the TCG==
In the TCG, Steven appears on the card {{TCG ID|EX Hidden Legends|Steven's Advice|92}} in the {{TCG|EX Hidden Legends}} and {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} expansions.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Emerald}}, when the {{player}} speaks to him in [[Meteor Falls]] before their battle, he makes an error. He talks of their encounter in the [[Sootopolis City]] Space Center. The Space Center is actually in [[Mossdeep City]], and this dialog may result from the encounter the player has with him in Sootopolis in Ruby and Sapphire.
* Also, the battle with Steven against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]] is the only occasion in the [[Generation III]] games where the player teams up with an ally for a double battle. Several others are available in the Battle Frontier and multiple times in [[Generation IV]].
** During this tag battle, by hacking the game, it is possible to level up Steven's Pokémon (this would not happen normally, as not enough experience is given to do so).
* In the anime, Steven is the Champion with the least amount of screen time (counting Gary as Blue), appearing in one episode, while everyone else has appeared more than once. He is also the only Champion not to play a significant role in the anime.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, the person who gives the player their [[villa]] in the [[Resort Area]] mentions that the guy who gave him the villa came to [[Sinnoh]] to collect rare stones. After collecting the stones, he left the region with all the items in the villa. This mysterious previous owner may in fact be Steven, who himself sold the villa to {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]] and subsequently appeared in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
*In the anime, Steven is portrayed as having blue-green eyes; however, in [[Pokémon Adventures]] he is portrayed as having yellow eyes.
*Steven's role in Emerald is similar to {{ga|Red}}'s role in [[Generation II]] as they are both former champions who can be battled after defeating the Elite Four. The only difference being that Steven can't be re-battled.
*Steven shares his French name (Pierre) with [[Brock]], the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]. In the French dub of the anime, he keeps his English name of Steven Stone so as to not be confused with {{an|Brock}}.

'''Steven Stone''' (Japanese: '''ツワブキ・ダイゴ''' ''Daigo Tsuwabuki'') is the Pokémon League {{tc|Champion}} in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, and a powerful wandering {{pkmn|Trainer}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, having relegated his title to [[Wallace]]. He is a {{pkmn|master}} of the {{type2|Steel}}, with a {{p|Metagross}} being the cornerstone of his team.

Steven is the son of the president of the [[Devon Corporation]], and he and his father both collect rare stones. Steven makes his home on {{ci|Mossdeep}}, and when the Elite Four are beaten in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, he will have left a {{p|Beldum}} and a note for the {{player|c}}.

==In the games==
[[File:Steven-rs.png|left|thumb|Challenging Steven Stone to battle]]
His strategy in battle is to use {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon to find the opponent's weakness.

Steven is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] region in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}. In Emerald, [[Wallace]] replaces him in this role.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Steven is a powerful wandering Trainer who gave up competing seriously to spend more time looking for rare rocks and stones. He states he was the [[Pokémon Champion]] of [[Hoenn]] at [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|some point]], but now he spends his life traveling through the region. He claims to be willing to {{m|Waterfall|climb waterfalls}} to find rare stones. With this hint, he can be found and challenged in the upper area of [[Meteor Falls]] after defeating the Elite Four.

In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, after the Hoenn Pokémon League is defeated, he offers a {{p|Beldum}} at his house in [[Mossdeep City]].

In {{game|Platinum}}, a man whose description is similar to Steven's was the previous owner of the [[villa]] in the [[Resort Area]].

He also appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. The player will first meet him after they have left the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] after collecting the {{OBP|Copycat|character}}'s Clefairy Doll, in which he will appear and inform the player that there's reports of either a {{p|Latios|blue}}{{sup|SS}} or {{p|Latias|red}}{{sup|HG}} Pokémon {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Kanto]]. The next time the player will meet him after beating {{ga|Red}} on [[Mt. Silver]], where he will appear in the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]] and let the player choose one of the Hoenn [[starter Pokémon]]. He can later be found in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], examining a shelf. After visiting and speaking to him there, he will return to the [[Silph Co.]] building offering to trade a {{p|Beldum}} for a {{p|Forretress}}.

If the player has the [[Enigma Stone]] and enters the Pewter Museum of Science, he will be talking to a researcher. When he is spoken to, he will notice the Enigma Stone and have the researcher examine it. The researcher will extract the [[Soul Dew]] from the stone and give it to the player. Steven will tell the player that Soul Dew is said to be the solidified spirits of Latias and Latios, and that it can bring out their true potential. Upon walking outside, {{p|Latias}}{{sup|SS}} or {{p|Latios}}{{sup|HG}} will be waiting outside to battle, drawn by the Soul Dew.

*Before battle
:''"Welcome, [[Player character|<player>]]. I was looking forward to seeing you here one day. You... What did you see on your journey with Pokémon? What did you feel, meeting so many other Trainers like you? What has awoken in you? I want you to hit me with it all! Now, bring it!"''

*When defeated
:''"I, the Champion, fall in defeat... Kudos to you, <player>! You are a truly noble Pokémon Trainer!"''

*After being defeated
:''"Congratulations! The feelings you have for your Pokémon... And the Pokémon that responded to those feelings with all their might... They came together as one, and created an even greater power. And thus, you were able to grasp victory today! You are rightfully the Hoenn region's new..."''

:''"<Player>... No, the new Champion! Come with me."'' [To [[Rival]]] ''"I'm sorry, but... From here on, only those Trainers who have become Champions may enter. You'll have to wait outside with the Professor."''

:''"This room... This is where we keep records of Pokémon that prevailed through harsh battles. It is here that the League Champions are honored. Come on, let's record your name as a Trainer who triumphed over the Pokémon League, and the names of the partners who battled with you."''

===={{game|Emerald}}====
*Before battle
:''"Oh, wow, <player>. I'm amazed you knew where to find me. Do you, uh...maybe think of me as just a rock maniac? No, that can't be right. We battled alongside each other at the Sootopolis Space Center. You should have a very good idea about how good I am. Okay, <player>, if you're going to mount a serious challenge, expect the worst!"''

*When defeated
:''"You... I had no idea you'd become so strong..."''

*After being defeated
:''"Come to think of it, ever since our paths first crossed in [[Granite Cave]] in {{to|Dewford}}, I had this feeling. I thought that you would eventually become the {{pkmn|Champion}}.

Especially {{ga|Brendan|the}} {{ga|May|ones}} who gave me tough battles... By the way, have you heard of a Pokémon called <sc>{{p|Latias}}</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>{{p|Latios}}</sc>{{sup|SS}}? I am investigating why <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}}, a Pokémon from Hoenn, decided to leave Hoenn to come here. <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}} is a Pokémon that has a lot to do with [[Soul Dew]], a gemlike Orb. Considering the fact that <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}} is now in Kanto, it is possible to assume that this has to do with Soul Dew. <sc>Latias</sc>{{sup|HG}}/<sc>Latios</sc>{{sup|SS}} is a Pokémon that travels a great distance. It'd be difficult to find without any machine to track it with. But any Trainer will be drawn to it, won't they? I must go. May our journeys cross again."''

*After defeating Red
:''"Hello... You're breaking up... I think it depends on how my dad feels... I see... I'll be on my way. See you soon."'' (Through phone)

:''"You are... I remember your eyes. When I see a Trainer whose eyes twinkle, I always remember."''

:''"You have a Pokédex! So you are also in search of Pokémon. Let me see... I think I can help you with that. Let's say that you have stones in front of you. Which color would you pick?"''

:''"You chose correctly! I will give you <sc>{{p|Treecko}}/{{p|Torchic}}/{{p|Mudkip}}</sc>!"''

:''"You did a great job naming it!"''

:''"Take good care of it. Your caring for it will make me very happy."''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Steven Stone.png|210px|thumb|Steven in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Steven's only appearance in the [[Pokémon anime]] was in ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]''. He helped {{Ash}}, {{Ashfr|his friends}}, and [[Team Rocket]] escape from an underground cavern.

At the end of the episode, Ash vowed to train harder so one day he could be powerful enough to battle Steven.

===Pokémon===
Steven uses these Pokémon in the anime:

|desc=Steven Stone's {{p|Aron}} was throughout the episode outside its [[Poké Ball]], when its owner was in [[Granite Cave]] looking for [[Evolutionary stone|stones]], it helped out {{m|dig}}ging at the ground. When [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} where setting another pitfall trap for {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, {{an|Brock}} and [[Max]], they also fell down being split up. Aron and its Trainer try to find the source of the crash, they found Max, Meowth and {{AP|Pikachu}}, the trio tells Steven what happened. Finding a large hole and where the others were, a group of rampaging Aron head straight towards them which they succeed to dodge them. After sending [[Team Rocket]] blasting off, they found a {{evostone|Fire Stone}}. Aron and Steven said their farewells to the group as they headed off into the distance on a sailing boat.

Aron's known moves are {{m|Dig}} and {{m|Roar}}.}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Steven Adventures.png|right|thumb|300px|Steven and his {{p|Metagross}} in ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'']]Steven met {{adv|Ruby}} while looking through the Granite Cave. During a battle with wild {{p|Mawile}}, Ruby's {{p|Skitty}} bumped into one of Steven's Moon Stones, causing it to evolve.

Steven was well-aware of the danger [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] presented, and extended an invitation to Ruby to join the fight against them. Steven invited him to help, but Ruby declined because he didn't like battling. The armlets on Steven's arms are devices he can chip away stone with, to grab and retrieve rocks he sees that are out of reach.

Later in the series, Steven confessed that he and his father, the owner of the [[Devon Corporation]], knew about the schemes of [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] quite long ago. [[Mr. Stone]] built the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] so that Steven can seal the Seafloor Cavern and no one would be able to wake {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}. The backup plan in case it fails would be to unseal {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}.

Steven later assembles the rest of the Hoenn Elite Four in order to fight against Kyogre and Groudon. With the help of {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Relicanth}}, Steven and the [[Elite Four]] unsealed the Regis. Steven took control of Registeel and gave the other two Regis to the other members of the Elite Four.

Knowing he would die in Kyogre and Groudon's battle, Steven stepped down from the position of Champion, and gave it back to [[Wallace]], who was actually the true Champion while Steven had only been a runner-up. After Kyogre and Groudon returned to their respective domains, Steven apparently died from the strain of controlling the Regis, but was later revived under mysterious circumstances when Ruby released his {{p|Celebi}}.

Steven later traveled to Sinnoh to collect the rare stones found in the region. He had purchased a [[Villa]] but sold it to {{adv|Platinum}} and returned to Hoenn at the start of the {{chap|Platinum}}.

Steven uses his Metagross to fly around Hoenn. Its magnetism allows him to float atop it.

Metagross is also used as a method of {{m|Fly|flight transportation}}.

Metagross's known moves are {{m|Take Down}} and {{m|Meteor Mash}}.}}

|desc=Steven controlled {{p|Registeel}} with Wallace. However, as of Steven's apparent death, Registeel and the other Regis vanished to the mountains, where they have been caught by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}.}}

==In the TCG==
In the TCG, Steven appears on the card {{TCG ID|EX Hidden Legends|Steven's Advice|92}} in the {{TCG|EX Hidden Legends}} and {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} expansions.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Emerald}}, when the {{player}} speaks to him in [[Meteor Falls]] before their battle, he makes an error. He talks of their encounter in the [[Sootopolis City]] Space Center. The Space Center is actually in [[Mossdeep City]], and this dialog may result from the encounter the player has with him in Sootopolis in Ruby and Sapphire.
* Also, the battle with Steven against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]] is the only occasion in the [[Generation III]] games where the player teams up with an ally for a double battle. Several others are available in the Battle Frontier and multiple times in [[Generation IV]].
** During this tag battle, by hacking the game, it is possible to level up Steven's Pokémon (this would not happen normally, as not enough experience is given to do so).
* In the anime, Steven is the Champion with the least amount of screen time (counting Gary as Blue), appearing in one episode, while everyone else has appeared more than once. He is also the only Champion not to play a significant role in the anime.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, the person who gives the player their [[villa]] in the [[Resort Area]] mentions that the guy who gave him the villa came to [[Sinnoh]] to collect rare stones. After collecting the stones, he left the region with all the items in the villa. This mysterious previous owner may in fact be Steven, who himself sold the villa to {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]] and subsequently appeared in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
*In the anime, Steven is portrayed as having blue-green eyes; however, in [[Pokémon Adventures]] he is portrayed as having yellow eyes.
*Steven's role in Emerald is similar to {{ga|Red}}'s role in [[Generation II]] as they are both former champions who can be battled after defeating the Elite Four. The only difference being that Steven can't be re-battled.
*Steven shares his French name (Pierre) with [[Brock]], the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]. In the French dub of the anime, he keeps his English name of Steven Stone so as to not be confused with {{an|Brock}}.

'''Shell Shock!''' (Japanese: '''カブトのかせきのひみつ！''' ''Kabuto and the Fossil's Secret!'') is the 89th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on March 25, 1999 and in the United States on March 4, 2000.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
Aboard {{AP|Lapras}}, the group follows a news crew to an [[Kabuto Fossil Island|uninhabited island]], where a scientific expedition is underway after the discovery of a fossilized {{p|Kabuto}}. While on the island Ash and the gang are shocked to find out that Nurse Joy is the director of the Kabuto excursion. While listening to Nurse Joy being interviewed by a news reporter they find out that the reason why the crew has come out to the island is to study the habitat of the extinct Pokémon Kabuto. She also remarks that they would like to find out if the claims about Kabuto oil are true or not. The claims being that the oil can not only bring good health, but also cause someone to live forever. After hearing all of this Ash and Tracey jump in front of the reporter's camera and ask if they can help with the fossil digging. Then a moment later Ash looks into the camera and makes a scene, which in turn causes Misty to grab him while yelling at him for embarrassing them.

Meanwhile [[Team Rocket]] have been watching the whole scene from their {{p|Magikarp}} submarine. At which [[Jessie]] says that she wonders why a television crew would be on the island. Which then prompts {{MTR}} into saying that if they hurry up and catch {{AP|Pikachu}} they can then maybe catch some face time too.

After the Team Rocket scene the show cuts to Nurse Joy leading a group of explorers, the news crew, and Ash's group to the digging site. A group of {{p|Growlithe}} also accompany the team to possibly find the scent of the Kabuto. While {{p|Machoke}} are seen carrying some equipment, along with {{p|Rhydon}} for drilling holes. As they pass by, a mysterious silhouette of a man is seen behind a tree. They eventually reach a small cliff path which Misty is very uneasy about because of the height. At the same time Team Rocket is shown following the same path on a lower section of the cliff. As Nurse Joy's team moves on the Growlithe start to growl at a large boulder on a hill at which Nurse Joy dismisses. Suddenly the boulder gives way and starts racing towards them. As the boulder races down you can see a leg of a man on top of the hill. Hinting that the boulder was pushed down by him. While the group is running down the hill Ash mentions to Nurse Joy to use the Machoke at which she agrees and tells them to stop the rock. They succeed and the team is saved. Unfortunately for Team Rocket, the boulder then rolls off the side of the cliff and hits [[James]] on the lower level of the cliff into what looks like a canyon.

As the team keeps walking once again a silhouette of a man is seen, but this time from behind a rock. Pikachu catches a glimpse and looks over which catches Ash's attention. After not seeing anything {{Ash}} says, "Nothing there Pikachu." and turns around. Although, the moment he turns around the man's figure can be seen again. Eventually the team reaches their destination, "a hidden bay on the island's desolate northern shore." Right away the crew gets down to digging with some Machoke and Rhydon pitching in. As Ash, {{Tracey}}, Pikachu, and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} dig, a bunch of boulders start falling down from the top of the cliffs onto them. Luckily [[Nurse Joy]] commands Rhydon to use {{m|Horn Drill}} on the crashing boulders and once again the team is saved.

After the second near boulder catastrophe {{an|Misty}} mentions that she thinks all these accidents aren't really accidents. That maybe someone else is causing all these bad things to happen. Tracey brings up the point that the island is supposed to be deserted and that can't possibly be true. Just as he says that a dark silhouette of a man is seen running from behind a tree at which Pikachu notices and starts chasing after him. Ash follows suit and ends up jumping on the man bringing them both to the ground. As the rest of the crew catches up the identity of the man is finally revealed. With that he then sternly tells them all to leave the island while admitting that he has been the one who has been pushing the boulders onto them.

The man then explains that he was only trying to keep them out of danger. He then tells of an ancient prophecy which implies that anyone who comes to the island to disturb the Kabuto will cause the island to be swallowed by the sea. At that moment an explorer comes running into the forest, ecstatic to have found another Kabuto fossil. This then causes the team and the man to venture into a cave where the fossil was found. When they get to the end of the cave they find tons of Kabuto fossils on the walls. Suddenly the cave starts to crumble only to reveal Team Rocket, who plan to steal all the Kabuto fossils for themselves. James then throws a bomb that gets passed around until Ash catches it and throws it at the wall of Kabuto Fossils. The fossils then explode off the wall and Team Rocket wraps them up in a net and tries to get away with their hot air balloon. The Kabuto then end up coming to life as the light of the moon hits them and one ends up popping Team Rocket's balloon which leads to them blasting away.

As the island starts to crumble apart the team decides to head for the boat, but the strange man insists that the prophecy said to run into the forest and make a raft. So they listen to the man and start building a makeshift raft. As the island sinks they all jump on the raft and Ash sends out his {{p|Lapras}} and {{p|Squirtle}} while Misty sends out her {{p|Staryu}} and {{p|Goldeen}} to help pull the raft. They all make it to sea safely and watch the island completely sink. Joy remarks that maybe the Kabuto oil does cause them to live forever. She then apologizes to the man for not believing him and the news reporter says that she thinks it's best that no one ever find out the Kabuto's secret. At the end the Kabuto are seen swimming towards the moonlight, looking for a new safe home.

'''Tracey's Marill''' (Japanese: '''ケンジのマリル''' ''Kenji's Maril'') was one of the two {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} owned by [[Tracey Sketchit]] before he met {{Ash}}. It was the second [[Generation II]] Pokémon to be owned by a main character, the first being {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}.

==History==
{{p|Marill}} was first called upon in ''[[EP087|The Crystal Onix]]'' to help locate the mythical [[Crystal Onix]] using its superior hearing abilities after {{TP|Tracey|Venonat}} failed to locate it with its sight. In a matter of seconds, Marill picked up on Onix's voice and led the group to its secret den located on the other side of [[Sunburst Island]]. As a {{t|Water}} Pokémon, it was also able to find Onix hiding underwater.

In ''[[EP097|Tracey Gets Bugged]]'', Marill teamed up with Venonat on [[Murcott Island]] to help search for {{type|Bug}}s. Working together, they were able to locate an [[Tracey's Scyther|injured and elderly Scyther]] that Tracey was able to capture and help.
[[File:Marill Azurill.png|Marill ready to battle alongside its child, {{TP|Misty|Azurill}}|thumb|left]]
Tracey loaned Marill and Scyther to {{an|Misty}} to help fight a fire on [[Ascorbia Island]] while he went to search for [[Captain Aidan]]'s missing [[Team Wartortle|Wartortle]] in ''[[EP106|The Pokémon Water War]]''. It managed to help out long enough for Team Wartortle to come and take care of the rest.

On the day that Tracey announced that he would leave the group in order to be {{an|Professor Oak}}'s assistant, he used Marill to help send [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]] blasting off after Scyther had rescued {{AP|Pikachu}} from them.

Marill hasn't been seen much since Tracey arrived in [[Pallet Town]]. However, it produced the {{pkmn|egg}} that hatched into [[Misty's Azurill]]. The two can be seen battling along side each other in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', firing dual Water Gun attacks at Team Rocket after they had tried to make off with the Pokémon at [[Professor Oak's laboratory]].

==Personality and characteristics==
Generally, Marill is shown to be a friendly Pokémon with nurturing instincts. While the group was on a deserted island in ''[[EP098|A Way Off Day Off]]'', it used its tail to keep Togepi entertained. Marill is also generally obedient unless it is faced with an opponent that is big and scary, as seen in ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]''. In such instances, Marill will jump in Tracey's arms for protection.

Marill helps Tracey as a [[Pokémon Watcher]] as its ears can hear Pokémon from far away and locate where the Pokémon are found. He has also used to to help find {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} and Misty's Togepi when they became separated from their Trainers.

==Moves used==

==Trivia==
*Marill is currently the only known Pokémon owned by a main character that has produced an egg.
*Marill is Tracey's only non-{{type2|Bug}} Pokémon he has on hand.

'''Friend and Foe Alike''' (Japanese: '''セキエイスタジアム！ＶＳヒロシ！''' ''{{tt|Sekiei|Indigo}} Stadium! VS {{tt|Hiroshi|Ritchie}}!'') is the 79th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on January 14, 1999 and in the United States on November 27, 1999.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
After foiling one of [[Team Rocket]]'s heists in the [[EP078|last episode]], {{Ash}} and [[Ritchie]] are {{pkmn|battle|battling}} against each other in the round five battle! {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Misty}} and [[Nurse Joy]] think Ash is lucky he gets to battle a friend, and he and Ritchie vow to make it the best battle they've had. Unfortunately for Ash, due to Team Rocket's sneaky tricks, he becomes distracted on the way to the next battle. Team Rocket kidnaps Ash and demand that he either surrenders his {{AP|Pikachu}} to them or be unable to battle Ritchie in Round five. Ash is trapped in the back of a truck, but manages to escape by flooding the entire truck with {{AP|Squirtle}}, and escapes when the truck runs over. Team Rocket returns, but Ash uses his Bulbasaur to defeat them. They return yet again, with bikes. Pikachu uses {{m|ThunderShock}} to paralyze them. They return a final time by hooking a crane on the bike Ash stole from them, and lifting him into the air. Ash takes out {{AP|Pidgeotto}} to fly Pikachu up into their air balloon, where Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} on them, and they drop into the forest. Ash orders Pidgeotto to fly the [[Team Rocket's mechas#Meowth Hot Air Balloon|Rocket Air Balloon]] to the Pokémon stadium.

Meanwhile, Ritchie and everyone else is awaiting Ash's arrival. Everybody is getting tired of waiting and the referee approaches Ritchie to inform him that as it appears that Ash is not going to turn up he is to be disqualified and Ritchie will win the match by default, but Ritchie begs the referee to wait. Ritchie tells the referee that he and Ash promised each other a great battle and that Ash must have a good reason for not being there but he is certain that his new friend will turn up. The referee, seeing that Ritchie is desperate that Ash not be disqualified, agrees to give Ash ten more minutes. Misty, Brock, {{Delia}} and {{an|Professor Oak}} are beginning to worry, but are proud of Ritchie. Delia and Professor Oak note that Ash certainly seems to choose his friends well.

The ten minutes pass and there's still no sign of Ash. By now the referee has had enough and is about to disqualify Ash and award the match to Ritchie when suddenly Ash appears overhead in the Meowth balloon, certainly making quite an entrance. Ash's friends are very relieved, while Delia shouts at her son to apologize for keeping everyone waiting while Professor Oak tries to calm her down. Unfortunately Pidgeotto is exhausted from flying the entire Balloon to the stadium and won't be able to participate in the match, but Ash thanks it for all its effort.

The battle between Ash and Ritchie finally begins with Ash using Squirtle and Ritchie using {{DL|Ritchie|Happy}}. Happy defeats Squirtle easily with {{m|Sleep Powder}}, and the ringer counts this as an [[fainting|elimination]]. Ash is truly surprised to see that Pikachu has enough energy to battle. Pikachu is at a disadvantage due to his lack of energy, but wins by putting the rest of his power into one Thunderbolt. Ritchie sends out [[Zippo]], who uses multiple {{m|Flamethrower}}s that Pikachu dodges. Pikachu is finally completely out of energy, and Zippo uses {{m|Tackle}}, finally beating Pikachu. Ash is left with only one Pokémon to use. Pidgeotto is too tired out, and Bulbasaur will be at a disadvantage against a {{type|Fire}}. Ash then realizes he only has one choice, and it's a very risky one. He uses this one choice and sends out the disobedient {{AP|Charizard}}. Everyone is shocked by Ash's choice, especially Brock and Misty, but to their surprise, Charizard battles after he is almost hit by Zippo's Flamethrower, by shooting a Flamethrower of his own. Ritchie recalls Zippo, which immediately eliminates him. Ritchie sends out [[Sparky]], who is ready for anything. Charizard, however, stomps on the ground twice, then uses his wings to create a strong wind that pushes back Sparky, but takes a nap, and even after Ash begins to beg, he doesn't budge, and is eliminated, giving Ritchie the victory. Ash is very sad, but calms down and congratulates Ritchie, showing they still have a true friendship.

* Squirtle is ruled unable to battle after it is put to {{Status|sleep}} by [[Ritchie#Pokémon|Happy]], despite the fact that both in the games and in the anime, sleeping Pokémon are still considered able to battle until they are knocked out.

'''Friend and Foe Alike''' (Japanese: '''セキエイスタジアム！ＶＳヒロシ！''' ''{{tt|Sekiei|Indigo}} Stadium! VS {{tt|Hiroshi|Ritchie}}!'') is the 79th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on January 14, 1999 and in the United States on November 27, 1999.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
After foiling one of [[Team Rocket]]'s heists in the [[EP078|last episode]], {{Ash}} and [[Ritchie]] are {{pkmn|battle|battling}} against each other in the round five battle! {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Misty}} and [[Nurse Joy]] think Ash is lucky he gets to battle a friend, and he and Ritchie vow to make it the best battle they've had. Unfortunately for Ash, due to Team Rocket's sneaky tricks, he becomes distracted on the way to the next battle. Team Rocket kidnaps Ash and demand that he either surrenders his {{AP|Pikachu}} to them or be unable to battle Ritchie in Round five. Ash is trapped in the back of a truck, but manages to escape by flooding the entire truck with {{AP|Squirtle}}, and escapes when the truck runs over. Team Rocket returns, but Ash uses his Bulbasaur to defeat them. They return yet again, with bikes. Pikachu uses {{m|ThunderShock}} to paralyze them. They return a final time by hooking a crane on the bike Ash stole from them, and lifting him into the air. Ash takes out {{AP|Pidgeotto}} to fly Pikachu up into their air balloon, where Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} on them, and they drop into the forest. Ash orders Pidgeotto to fly the [[Team Rocket's mechas#Meowth Hot Air Balloon|Rocket Air Balloon]] to the Pokémon stadium.

Meanwhile, Ritchie and everyone else is awaiting Ash's arrival. Everybody is getting tired of waiting and the referee approaches Ritchie to inform him that as it appears that Ash is not going to turn up he is to be disqualified and Ritchie will win the match by default, but Ritchie begs the referee to wait. Ritchie tells the referee that he and Ash promised each other a great battle and that Ash must have a good reason for not being there but he is certain that his new friend will turn up. The referee, seeing that Ritchie is desperate that Ash not be disqualified, agrees to give Ash ten more minutes. Misty, Brock, {{Delia}} and {{an|Professor Oak}} are beginning to worry, but are proud of Ritchie. Delia and Professor Oak note that Ash certainly seems to choose his friends well.

The ten minutes pass and there's still no sign of Ash. By now the referee has had enough and is about to disqualify Ash and award the match to Ritchie when suddenly Ash appears overhead in the Meowth balloon, certainly making quite an entrance. Ash's friends are very relieved, while Delia shouts at her son to apologize for keeping everyone waiting while Professor Oak tries to calm her down. Unfortunately Pidgeotto is exhausted from flying the entire Balloon to the stadium and won't be able to participate in the match, but Ash thanks it for all its effort.

The battle between Ash and Ritchie finally begins with Ash using Squirtle and Ritchie using {{DL|Ritchie|Happy}}. Happy defeats Squirtle easily with {{m|Sleep Powder}}, and the ringer counts this as an [[fainting|elimination]]. Ash is truly surprised to see that Pikachu has enough energy to battle. Pikachu is at a disadvantage due to his lack of energy, but wins by putting the rest of his power into one Thunderbolt. Ritchie sends out [[Zippo]], who uses multiple {{m|Flamethrower}}s that Pikachu dodges. Pikachu is finally completely out of energy, and Zippo uses {{m|Tackle}}, finally beating Pikachu. Ash is left with only one Pokémon to use. Pidgeotto is too tired out, and Bulbasaur will be at a disadvantage against a {{type|Fire}}. Ash then realizes he only has one choice, and it's a very risky one. He uses this one choice and sends out the disobedient {{AP|Charizard}}. Everyone is shocked by Ash's choice, especially Brock and Misty, but to their surprise, Charizard battles after he is almost hit by Zippo's Flamethrower, by shooting a Flamethrower of his own. Ritchie recalls Zippo, which immediately eliminates him. Ritchie sends out [[Sparky]], who is ready for anything. Charizard, however, stomps on the ground twice, then uses his wings to create a strong wind that pushes back Sparky, but takes a nap, and even after Ash begins to beg, he doesn't budge, and is eliminated, giving Ritchie the victory. Ash is very sad, but calms down and congratulates Ritchie, showing they still have a true friendship.

'''Sparky, Ritchie's Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''レオン''' ''Leon'', '''ヒロシのピカチュウ''' ''Hiroshi's Pikachu'') is [[Ritchie]]'s main [[Pokémon]], even though it was not the first of his Pokémon introduced. It is distinguished from other Pikachu by a scruff of fur on the top of its head. This was most likely done to distinguish it from [[Ash's Pikachu]], to avoid confusion when they were in the same scene.

==History==
Prior to meeting {{Ash}}, Ritchie had always kept Sparky in a [[Poké Ball]] just like his other Pokémon, but as seen in later episodes, Sparky has always been outside of its ball. It is unclear whether Sparky or [[Zippo]] was Ritchie's [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]].

'''Sparky, Ritchie's Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''レオン''' ''Leon'', '''ヒロシのピカチュウ''' ''Hiroshi's Pikachu'') is [[Ritchie]]'s main [[Pokémon]], even though it was not the first of his Pokémon introduced. It is distinguished from other Pikachu by a scruff of fur on the top of its head. This was most likely done to distinguish it from [[Ash's Pikachu]], to avoid confusion when they were in the same scene.

==History==
Prior to meeting {{Ash}}, Ritchie had always kept Sparky in a [[Poké Ball]] just like his other Pokémon, but as seen in later episodes, Sparky has always been outside of its ball. It is unclear whether Sparky or [[Zippo]] was Ritchie's [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]].

'''Fire and Ice''' (Japanese: '''こおりのフィールド！ほのおのたたかい！''' ''Ice Field! Blazing Battle!'') is the 76th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 24, 1998 and in the United States on November 6, 1999.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==

{{Ash}} is in his second preliminary {{pkmn|battle}}, on the Rock field. Both he and his opponent are down to their last {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Ash sends out {{AP|Squirtle}}, while the opponent sends out {{p|Nidorino}}. Both put up a fierce fight, but Squirtle manages to win with a {{m|Skull Bash}}, allowing Ash to advance to the third round!

Ash and {{ashfr|company}} search for a [[Pokémon Center]] so Ash can heal his Pokémon before the third round. The centers are crowded and many [[Nurse Joy]]s and [[Officer Jenny|Jennies]] are everywhere in the streets. Brock's love meter skyrockets at this rate. [[Team Rocket]] relishes this opportunity to swipe {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} and they do so by opening a fake Pokémon Center. After Team Rocket reveals their true identities to Ash and company, they are about to escape with Ash's stolen Pokémon, but Brock's {{TP|Brock|Onix}} stops them and gives Ash his Pokémon back. After biting open a hole in the balloon, Onix sends Team Rocket blasting off again! After fending off Team Rocket, the group then hears that new Pokémon will be admitted into the Pokémon Center. Ash takes this opportunity to heal his Pokémon.

Ash is now in the middle of the third round match with [[Pete Pebbleman]] in the Ice Field. Both trainers each won the first round of the match. Ash has {{AP|Kingler}} battle, while Pete has {{p|Cloyster}} battle. Ash tells Kingler to use {{m|Crabhammer}}, while Pete orders Cloyster to use {{m|Withdraw}}. This doesn't look good for Ash-- since Cloyster used Withdraw, Kingler will get worn out from using Crabhammer, but {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} encourage Ash to keep going, because Cloyster is still losing health despite the defense boost. Kingler keeps hitting Cloyster with its Crabhammer until Cloyster's shell finally cracks, [[fainting|knocking it out]]. Pete recalls Cloyster and sends out Arcanine. Kingler tries a Bubble attack, but Pete's Arcanine dodges it and uses {{m|Dragon Rage}}. Kingler is defeated. Ash recalls Kingler and sends {{AP|Pikachu}} into the battlefield. Pikachu uses {{m|Agility}}, but Arcanine is trying to stop it with a {{m|Fire Blast}}. The Fire Blast attacks melt the field. Pikachu dives into the water, then uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Pete's Arcanine is defeated and Ash is heading for the fourth round!

* As Ash is looking for a place to eat he passes a movie theater with a poster for "Pokémon in Love," the movie that Misty's Psyduck took part in.

=== Errors ===
* In the Brazilian Portuguese dub version, when Misty refers to Hit Points her words are mistranslated as {{tt|Pontos de Ataque|Attack Points}}.
* On the posters in the village, the é in Pokémon is not e-acute, thus making it "Pokemon".
* On the Ice Field, the announcer says that each contestant has won one match each, but Ash has actually won two already.

'''Round One - Begin!''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンリーグかいまく！みずのフィールド！''' ''Pokémon League Opens! Water Battlefield!'') is the 75th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 17, 1998 and in the United States on October 30, 1999.
{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}} was preparing to {{pkmn|battle}} in the [[Indigo League]]. He learned that he must first pass through four preliminary battles on four unique battlefields (Grass, Water, Ice and Rock) to qualify for battling inside Indigo Stadium. He met [[Nurse Joy]] at the local convention {{pkmn|Center}}, and found that he was assigned to battle on the Water field later that day against a {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Mandi]], who referred to himself as "Mandi the Astounding."

Since he was assigned to the Water field, Ash planned to rely on {{AP|Squirtle}} for the battle. When {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} suggested that Squirtle might not be enough, Ash decided to recall {{AP|Krabby|Kingler}} from {{an|Professor Oak}}'s lab to boost his team. Misty was worried because Ash had never used Krabby before, but Ash was confident.

Meanwhile, [[Team Rocket]] was posing as a news crew to try and find rare {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to steal. However, they were not having much luck. In one of their "Interviews" they come across Mandi who's cocky attitude makes Jessie angry enough to nearly blow their cover. As Mandi walks off he says that he only does interviews with networks that have a lot of viewers prompting Jessie to shout that she'll make his teeth disappear and that that will certainly attract a viewing crowd. Before she can make true on her words though, James and Meowth remind her of their mission and that they should keep their cover intact.

Ash's battle on the Water field was about to begin! Misty and Brock took special seats behind Ash's podium on the battlefield to act as his "coaches" during the fights. Ash sent out Krabby right away, and Mandi used {{p|Exeggutor}}. Krabby jumped into the pool but Exeggutor used its {{m|Psychic}} ability to create a whirlpool, revealing Krabby's hiding space. Mandi then ordered an {{m|Egg Bomb}}, knocking Krabby into the whirlpool and preventing it from using any attacks. Ash tried to recall Krabby, but the whirlpool prevented him from doing so. Suddenly, Krabby escaped from the vortex. Ash ordered Krabby to use {{m|ViceGrip}} on Exeggutor's leaves, stopping its attacks. One {{m|Stomp}} later and Krabby was the winner!

Krabby stood triumphant over Exeggutor and [[Evolution|evolved]]. Ash excitedly checked [[Pokédex|Dexter]] for information on his new {{AP|Kingler}}. Mandi, still confident, sent out a {{p|Seadra}}. Seadra used {{m|Agility}} to dodge Kingler's {{m|Water Gun}}, but Kingler managed to slow it down with a {{m|Bubble}} attack and then knocked Seadra out of the fight with {{m|Crabhammer}}.

Mandi, undaunted, sent out his last Pokémon — {{p|Golbat}}! {{an|Brock}} worried that this could be bad for Ash; Kingler was weak against air attacks. Golbat managed to evade Kingler's attacks, dealing a great amount of damage in the process. But Ash remained firm and ordered Kingler to use {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Kingler's shot hit Golbat dead-on, knocking it out and winning Ash his first Indigo League victory!

== Major events ==
* {{Ash}}'s {{p|Krabby}} is revealed to know {{m|Harden}}, {{m|ViceGrip}}, {{m|Leer}}, and {{m|Stomp}}.
* Ash's Krabby [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{AP|Kingler}}.
* Ash's Kingler is revealed to know {{m|Bubble}}, {{m|Water Gun}}, and {{m|Crabhammer}}.
* Ash's Kingler learns {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Ash wins his first round {{pkmn|battle|match}} using only Kingler.

== Trivia ==
* This episode marks so far the only time when a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon owned by Ash has evolved.
* In the English dub, no [[gender]] for the "Who's That Pokémon?" feature was given, only "Nidoran." The picture and [[cry]] was of the {{p|Nidoran♂|male Nidoran}}.
* Team Rocket's bogus news network was called "Lovely Charming network" which is a referrence to their Japanese [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]] where they introduce themselves as "The lovely charming Villians"

=== Errors ===
* In the dub, after Mandi summoned a flock of {{p|Pidgey}} during his magic trick, {{MTR}} referred to the Pidgey as {{p|Pidgeotto}}.
* When a random Trainer is showing off his Pokémon to [[Team Rocket]], he holds up a Poké Ball containing a {{p|Raticate}}, yet a picture of a {{p|Venomoth}} appears. When he holds up the [[Poké Ball]] containing Venomoth, the next scene shows him staring at Team Rocket's camera, with his mouth not moving when he says "And a Venomoth!" in the dub. In the Japanese version he only showed off one Pokémon and a Venomoth.
* When Ash used the video phone to talk to Professor Oak, Ash put the phone against his ear and used the screen when Ash's mom and Professor Oak only used the screen.
* When Mandi's Golbat used {{m|Double Team}}, it looked more like {{m|Teleport}}.
* Right after {{Ash}} defeats Mandi, the black background of the big screen disappears when the screen changes to congratulate the winner.
** This also happens after {{Gary}}'s battle, therefore it may have been intentional and was simply changed in future episodes.
* After {{Ash}} tries to recall {{p|Krabby}}, the announcer states that Exeggutor's {{m|Barrage}} was preventing him from doing so, when it was really {{m|Egg Bomb}}.
* Brock mentions that, when Mandi sends out {{p|Golbat}}, that {{AP|Kingler}} is weak against 'air attacks' despite Kingler having no such weakness to the [[Flying-type]].

'''A Scare in the Air''' (Japanese: '''ひこうせんはふこうせん！？''' ''Blimp Accident!?'' ) is the 82nd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]] and the first episode in the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands arc]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on February 4, 1999 and in the United States on January 8, 2000.
{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
Preparing to depart for [[Valencia Island]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|co.}} are at a grocery store picking up supplies for their trip. Ash suggests walking, but {{an|Brock}}'s guidebook says that it will only take a day traveling by [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|blimp]]. While the blimp arrives, two men sponsor a contest where the winner gets a prize just by showing their store receipt to them. Ash shows his receipt, and wins a trip on the blimp. Unknown to the kids, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] have received an assignment from {{an|Giovanni}} to operate the blimp.

Ash and the others reach the blimp yard, where they see a broken down blimp. Two men approach them and ask if they are riding the blimp. They then tell them the blimp is haunted and full of ghosts. At this point, Jessie and James enter the blimp.

Once on board, Ash and the others notice how broken down the blimp truly is. At the same time, {{MTR}} is fixing dinner, while Jessie and James act as waiters. During some turbulence, Ash complains about the ride. Jessie and James ask Meowth who's flying the blimp. They realize that nobody was flying the blimp. Realizing this, Jessie and James attempt to pilot the blimp, but instead fly it into a big storm.

Suddenly, {{an|Misty}} notices that {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} is missing. They set out to find it, while Team Rocket starts looking for the twerps. When Ash and the others reach the inflated portion of the blimp, they encounter what they believe to be a ghost. As it turns out, the ghost is actually {{an|Jigglypuff}}.

Eventually, Ash and friends meet up with Team Rocket, and begin a [[Pokémon battle]]. At one point, [[Brock's Geodude]] throws [[James's Weezing]] through the blimp and it starts ripping apart. While this is happening, Misty finally spots Togepi on a high ledge. Ash uses {{AP|Bulbasaur}} to grab Togepi from the ledge. While trying to rescue Togepi, Team Rocket attempts to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}. Their plan is thwarted when the blimp hits a pocket of turbulence and they fall out of the blimp. Using fabric from the blimp, Meowth makes a parachute. However, Jigglypuff lands on top of it and starts to {{m|sing}}. They fall asleep, and Meowth lets go of the fabric, causing the trio to fall into the ocean.

Now in control of the blimp, Ash and the others try to land it. Using their Pokémon, they are able to steer the blimp and crash land it on Valencia Island. Now safely on land, they continue to [[Professor Ivy]]'s lab to obtain the [[GS Ball]].

== Trivia ==
* The dub of this episode was renamed "Spirits in the Sky" after the September 11th tragedy. However, this may have only been temporary, as the [[Cartoon Network]] rerun kept the original dub title.
* This episode's renamed dub title is a reference to the {{wp|Norman Greenbaum}} song, {{wp|Spirit in the Sky}}.
* This is the first English episode of the {{wp|2000s (decade)|2000s}}.
* In the Japanese version, the "Who Is it" is the object Misty was holding when she, Ash and Brock discovered {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} was missing.
=== Errors ===
* When Jessie and James are emptying water from the blimp, outside camera shots of the blimp only sometimes show any water being expelled.
* While this episode marks the beginning of the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands arc]], both [[Kids' WB!]] and [[Cartoon Network]] aired the [[Pokémon Theme|first season intro]] instead of the {{so|Pokémon World|Orange Islands theme}} for this episode and [[EP083|the next one]].

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}} is finally training for the [[Pokémon League]], and is battling {{an|Brock}}. Ash's {{TP|Ash|Pikachu}} is battling Brock's {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}. Pikachu is about to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and Vulpix is about to use {{m|Fire Spin}}, when {{an|Jigglypuff}} appears in-between them. At Ash and Brock's command, Pikachu and Vulpix fire their attacks in a different direction, destroying a rock wall. As Ash and his friends walk closer, they see that they have uncovered the entrance to a temple, as well as a gigantic bell. They find an ancient artifact in the rubble, and an archaeologist named [[Eve]] takes it.

Eve and the other archaeologists are digging up artifacts related to the ancient city of Pokémopolis, and a professor finds a spoon similar to the first artifact. Pokémopolis was destroyed in a storm a long time ago, and an ancient tablet reads that two great powers of destruction will fight and destroy the world, and no human knows the secret to stop them.

That night, [[Team Rocket]] attempts to steal the rare and valuable artifacts from the temple. [[Jessie]] has her {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} enter the temple and bring back the most valuable thing it can find. It brings back a dark object that appears to be three dark orbs together. It absorbs Arbok, and chases after Team Rocket. It makes footprints in the ground as it chases them, as though it is invisible. It absorbs them as well, offscreen.

Next day, the professor finds the dark device, and is absorbed by it. It then absorbs all the archaeologists except Eve, and turns into a [[Giant Pokémon|giant]] {{p|Gengar}} with strange markings on it. Gengar heads to the nearest town to destroy it. As the nearest town is [[Pallet Town]], Ash tries to stop it. Ash, {{an|Misty}}, and Brock chase after it while Eve heads back to the van, where the artifacts are floating around. He sends {{TP|Ash|Pidgeotto}} after it, but the {{m|Gust}} Attack doesn't do much, and Pidgeotto is absorbed by Gengar. Brock sends {{TP|Brock|Onix|Steelix}} after it and has Onix use {{m|Bind}}, wrapping around Gengar's leg, but Gengar absorbs it too.

Gengar chases Ash, Misty, and Brock back to the van, where Eve is possessed by the two strange artifacts (the one that looks like a spoon and the other one with the same design), and the spoon sticks in the other one like a key, and the spell on Eve and the other artifacts is broken. The two artifacts then transform into a giant {{p|Alakazam}}, also with strange markings on it. Gengar and Alakazam battle. Alakazam shoots energy waves that, when they hit the ground or a wall, transform into strangely-shaped stones. What those are is unknown. Gengar and Alakazam enter a beam struggle, and where the beams collide, they shoot into the sky, threatening to destroy the entire planet.

Ash has his Pikachu use Thunderbolt on them when they step into the water, but although they are affected, no significant damage is caused to them. Then, Jigglypuff appears and {{m|Sing|sings}} its song. Everyone inside the giant Gengar falls asleep, but Gengar and Alakazam do not, as Jigglypuff is too small to put them to sleep. Gengar knocks Alakazam backward, and it crashes into Jigglypuff, sending it flying into the distance, Team Rocket style.

However, Jigglypuff's song makes the giant bell glow, and it summons forth a [[giant Pokémon|giant]] {{p|Jigglypuff}}. The giant Jigglypuff's song is loud and powerful enough to put the giant Gengar and Alakazam to sleep, as well as Ash, Misty, Brock, Eve, Pikachu, and {{TP|Misty|Togepi|Togetic}}. Just like the regular Jigglypuff, the giant Jigglypuff gets angry when it sees that Gengar and Alakazam fell asleep, and pulls off the head of the bell, revealing it to be a paintbrush, and scribbles on Gengar and Alakazam's faces.

When Ash and the others wake up, the dark clouds have vanished, as have the three giant Pokémon. The artifacts and all the giant Gengar's victims have all reappeared. Ash walks up to Team Rocket, and they decide not to battle Ash this time, and run off.

So the mystery of Pokémopolis has been solved, but the biggest mystery has yet to be solved - will Ash ever get to training for the Pokémon League?

[[File:Unknown Pokemopolis Pokemon Artifact.png|thumb|Unreleased Pokémon]]
* This is the second time someone (namely the giant Gengar and Alakazam) doesn't fall asleep to Jigglypuff's song, though Jigglypuff was too small to affect them.
* The giant Gengar's ability to trap other people and Pokémon inside its body is somewhat similar to the {{mov|Groudon|fake Groudon|6}} from ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. Coincidentally, Team Rocket were trapped inside both.
* Alakazam uses a move similar to {{m|Psycho Cut}}, although this was revealed [[Generation IV|three generations after.]]
* This episode is one of the very few where Team Rocket doesn't blast off.
* This episode is featured on the ''Volume 2: Jigglypuff'' copy of [[Pokémon All-Stars]].
* While examining the various artifacts inside the tent, {{an|Brock}} is seen holding one of the [[Unreleased Pokémon and characters|unused Pokémon]].

=== Errors ===
* In the beginning of this episode Ash commands Pikachu to use "Electric attack" on [[Brock's Vulpix]]. {{t|Electric}} is a type, not a move (unlike Psychic, which is both a [[Psychic (type)|type]] and a [[Psychic (move)|move]]).
* Although Arbok was the first Pokémon to go into the Dark Device it is never seen for the rest of the episode.
* The title card for this episode misspells ''Pokémopolis'' as ''Pokemopolis'' without the accent over the '''e'''.
* Brock's Vulpix used {{m|Agility}} in this episode, a move it is [[Anime move errors|normally incapable of learning]]. In the original Japanese version, Brock tells Vulpix to use {{m|Quick Attack}}.

=== Dub edits ===
* Ash commanded Pikachu to use {{m|ThunderShock}} on Gengar and Alakazam to free himself, Misty, Brock and Eve from being frozen by Gengar. In the original Japanese version, Ash commanded Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on Gengar and Alakazam.

Move

[[File:Volt Tackle HGSS.png|thumb|right|256px|{{p|Pikachu}} using {{m|Volt Tackle}} against {{p|Ponyta}}]]

A '''move''' ('''わざ''' ''move''), also known as an ''attack'' or ''technique'', is what Pokémon have primarily used in battle ever since the [[Generation I]] games. In battle, a Pokémon uses one move each turn. Some moves (including those learned by [[HM|Hidden Machine]]) can be used outside of battle as well, usually for the purpose of removing obstacles or exploring new areas.

==In the games==
===Characteristics of moves===
A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time, which are drawn from a pool of 559 total moves. No single Pokémon has access to each move, however; all 649  Pokémon have a given movelist with a limited amount of moves that relate to the type and concept of the species. The amount of moves in each movelist varies between species: some Pokémon, such as {{p|Ditto}} and {{p|Unown}}, only have one move to learn, while {{p|Mew}} can learn 139 moves as of Generation V and {{p|Smeargle}} can learn [[Struggle|almost]] [[Chatter|any]] move via {{m|Sketch}}. Sometimes, even, Pokémon's movelists vary between [[evolution]]ary relatives. This often is tied to a secondary [[elemental type|type]] gained or lost on evolution, but can also provide incentive to prevent a Pokémon's evolution to a higher stage. Most trios and duos have similar movelist.

Pokémon are limited in the way that they may use their moves in battle. The amount of times they can use each move is restricted by the move's [[power points]]. Power points vary from move to move, but typically stronger moves have fewer power points than weaker moves. The amount of power points for each move may be altered by items such as {{DL|Vitamin|PP Up}}. The only move that is not affected by power points is {{m|Struggle}}.

The strength of a move is measured by its [[Power]], and other factors such as [[Accuracy]] affect whether it does damage or not. Some moves have additional effects that cause [[status ailment]]s on the target, and some do no damage at all. Moves that do not explicitly cause harm to their target are known as [[status move]]s; the remaining moves are divided into [[physical move|physical]] and [[special move]]s depending on the individual move's characteristics; the category of the move determines whether the move's power relies on the {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}} stat. It is important to note that prior to [[Generation IV]], the move's category was dependent on the move's elemental type, rather than a distinct variable.

===Learning and unlearning===
Since {{game|Red and Green|s}}, there have been three main methods of acquiring moves on a Pokémon: by [[Experience|leveling up]], by use of [[TM|Technical Machines]] and by use of Hidden Machines. [[Generation II]] added two further methods: [[egg move]]s learned through {{pkmn|breeding}}, and moves learned by a non-player character [[move tutor]]. These two newest methods have been part of all further Pokémon handheld games.

A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time. In order to learn new moves once four have been learned, it must forget one old move for every new move. Some moves cannot be forgotten naturally, such as moves learned by HM. To remove these, a Trainer must incorporate the help of a [[Move Deleter]]. Forgotten moves can be relearned thanks to the [[Move relearner]].

===Unique moves===
Some Pokémon have moves specific to themselves or their evolutionary line. These unique moves are known as [[signature move]]s. Some of these moves are powerful moves that only certain legendary Pokémon can learn, but other moves serve as "gimmicks" for [[novelty Pokémon]]. One example is {{p|Smeargle}}'s {{m|Sketch}}, which allows it to learn almost every conceivable move.

==In the anime==
[[File:MewtwoBarrier.png|thumb|right|250px|{{an|Mewtwo}} using {{m|Barrier}}]]
Moves in the anime often appear different to how they are depicted in the games. [[Ash's Pikachu]] often uses {{m|Agility}} as a physical attacking move, rather than a move that merely raises {{stat|Speed}}. The almost limitless nature of the anime lends itself to many more [[differences between the games and anime]] in relation to Pokémon's moves. Pokémon are able to use many more moves [[field move (main series)|outside of battle]], such as {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s {{m|Vine Whip}}. In battle, moves may be used in unorthodox manners, especially to overcome type disadvantage—perhaps best exampled with the battle between Ash's Pikachu and Blaine's Rhydon. Invented, {{DL|Moves not in the Pokémon games|In the anime|anime-exclusive moves}} have existed since the third episode, and custom-made moves have been prevalent in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.

The process in which moves are learned is changed slightly; TMs and HMs do not seem to exist. The term move tutor has never been used in the anime but there are several people in the anime that have taught Pokémon certain moves that they would not normally be able to learn. These people, such as [[Chaz]] and [[Clayton]], are much like move tutors in the games except for the fact that they do not ask for anything in return. Even {{Ash}} has taught {{AP|his|Sceptile}} {{p|Treecko}} {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Consequently, all moves learned by anime Pokémon appear to have been learned by level-up or by move tutor, including special egg moves such as {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

==Trivia==
* During an in-game [[double battle]], after a move is issued, if that Pokémon levels up before its in-battle turn and replaces the move currently awaiting execution with a new move, the new move will be used instead of the old one.
** Multiple turn moves such as {{m|Outrage}} will continue to be performed even if the move is deleted between turns. This can happen in both single and double battles.
* Currently, there are two moves that have not been allocated to a Pokémon. {{m|Freeze Shock}} and {{m|Ice Burn}} are two {{type|Ice}} moves that are believed to be two signature moves belonging to {{p|Kyurem}} for an upcoming third installment to [[Generation V]].

'''Make Room for Gloom''' (Japanese: '''しょくぶつえんのクサイハナ''' ''{{tt|Kusaihana|Gloom}} of the Botanical Garden'') is the 68th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 29, 1998 and in the United States on October 4, 1999.
{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
Back home at [[Pallet Town]], it's another day at the Ketchum residence. {{an|Brock}} is up making breakfast as {{Ash}} is awakened by a combination of [[Mimey]] sweeping over his head and {{AP|Pikachu}} shocking him awake when Mimey does the same to Pikachu. This awakens {{an|Misty}} (sleeping in Ash's bunk). Later, during breakfast, {{Delia}} asks her son to help out with her garden (as he does not appear to be training for the [[Pokémon League]]), but the thought of that reminds him of some "serious training" that he needs to do in the mountains - something that was news to Misty. As Ash tries to push Misty and Brock out the door as fast as possible (telling them secretly that laboring in the family garden would leave him too tired to train), they quickly run off when Delia tells them to get 3-400 pounds of fertilizer from the Xanadu Nursery.

After running away, they take a rest. Encountering a greenhouse, Ash tells Misty and Brock that the greenhouse is the Xanadu Nursery, a childhood stomping ground. He had recalled that the owner had moved away when he was a child, and he does not know the new owner. When Brock peers inside and finds an attractive woman, all Ash sees is a {{p|Gloom}}, making Misty believe both are hallucinating. They are interrupted by a gardener, appearing to wield a flamethrower, when in fact it merely sprays water.

Introducing himself as [[Potter]], he describes the Xanadu Nursery as a place which attracts {{type2|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. As Ash sends out {{AP|Bulbasaur}} out to enjoy, Brock inquires about the girl that he saw, who he learns is named [[Florinda Showers|Florinda]], the new owner of the Xanadu Nursery. Just then, however, Bulbasaur sniffs a bunch of Stun Stem (a plant which produces pollen that can paralyze, much like {{m|Stun Spore}}), which knocks it out cold. Florinda and Gloom appear, and advises Ash to take Bulbasaur with her for treatment. Thanks to Gloom (who had developed an immunity to Stun Stem from being exposed to it for so long), Bulbasaur recovers. As the two Grass Pokémon play, Brock and Florinda talk privately.

Florinda had inherited the Xanadu Nursery (run by her family for generations), but she does not feel confident in her abilities because she is not able to make Gloom [[Evolution|evolve]], even with the help of a {{Evostone|Leaf Stone}}. It is apparently not because of love, as Gloom is almost never gloomy. Just then, {{an|Professor Oak}} appears, revealing the Leaf Stone that Florinda had purchased to be a fake. As everyone tries to help Florinda cope with the situation, Florinda describes the three people who had sold them the false Leaf Stone: [[Team Rocket]].

Meanwhile, Team Rocket themselves are at the nursery, looking for the right Pokémon to steal. After encountering the Stun Stem, they decide to harvest it instead, as it could help them. Back upstairs, Brock swears to Florinda that he would find a real Leaf Stone, but Ash tries to dissuade him as Leaf Stones are hard to come by. Brock instead swears to Florinda that he would find Team Rocket and bring justice, but Ash also points out that it is usually Team Rocket who find them first. As if on cue, alarms sound, as Potter learns that plants are being stolen from the nursery. Sure enough, they discover Team Rocket. Though Bulbasaur manages to tie up Team Rocket, {{MTR}} (though he is a bit late) unleashes a bomb made of the stolen Stun Stem to incapacitate nearly everyone. With Florinda (who evaded the Stun Stem) and Gloom the only able-bodied person left, Brock urges her to attack, as Team Rocket manages to steal Pikachu while incapacitated. Sending {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}} to deal with Gloom, Florinda is surprised at Gloom's battling ability when it manages to use {{m|Double Team}} to get Arbok and Weezing to hit each other. Meanwhile, Pikachu manages to bite Jessie's arm, and frees itself, landing behind Bulbasaur, as Brock continues to coach Florinda, telling her that Team Rocket is now open to a more powerful attack. Though Florinda is not confident that {{m|SolarBeam}} would do the trick, Gloom manages to send Team Rocket flying with it.

Later, after everyone has been treated, Florinda thanks Brock, noting that Gloom is strong as it is, and that it does not need to evolve. Florinda now has the confidence to run the nursery with a special someone, which causes Brock to fawn over. When Brock recovers from fantasizing though, Florinda had already proposed to Potter, to run the nursery together. Feeling rejected, Ash tries to console Brock, telling him that he will meet more women who will reject him. As Ash and friends head back to town, he is reminded that he had spent a day not training for the Pokémon League...

* ''[[Type: Wild]]'' replaced ''[[Meowth's Song]]'' as the ending.
* Ash mentions that Brock will find tons of more girls that will reject him. To be exact, Brock found over five hundred more girls that rejected him in his tenure in the anime.
*The events of this episode immediately follow those of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
=== Errors ===
* When Team Rocket is stealing the Stun Stem, they are all shown to be wearing surgical masks. However, in the next scene, Jessie's mouth is seen moving, and the masks disappear completely in all scenes afterward.
* When Misty comments on how Bulbasaur and Gloom "aren't the only ones getting together," one of her eyes is green and the other is blue.

=== Dub edits ===
*"Xanadu Gardens" is "ムラサメ (Murasame) Botanical Gardens" in the original.
**Its name, in English, is a likely reference to one of Coleridge's most well-known poems, ''Kubla Khan,'' in which a greenhouse-like "pleasure dome" is featured. In Japanese, "Murasame" refers to an intermittent autumn rain which falls lightly and heavily in rhythmical spurts.

'''The Evolution Solution''' (Japanese: '''ヤドンがヤドランになるとき''' ''When {{tt|Yadon|Slowpoke}} Becomes {{tt|Yadoran|Slowbro}}'') is the 66th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 15, 1998 and in the United States on October 2, 1999.
{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
[[Delia Ketchum|Ash’s mom]] and friends are going to go to the [[Seafoam Islands]]. Misty and Brock are going to go surfing. {{Ash}} goes to Oak’s lab to discover that Oak is trying to find out why {{p|Slowpoke}} evolves into {{p|Slowbro}}. {{an|Professor Oak}} suggests that Ash go to the Seafoam Islands to meet [[Professor Westwood]], the original creator of the Pokédex who would know the answer.

Happy to have an excuse to go to the beach, Ash and Pikachu head to the Seafoam Islands. Ash arrives and surprises Brock and Misty, who are riding on sailboards. They walk to Westwood’s lab and discover that he is actually the fifth of many Westwoods, and insists on being called that. He happens to also be trying to figure out the mystery of Slowpoke and {{p|Shellder}}. Westwood goes outside to fish, trying to understand Slowpoke. Ash and his friends examine Slowpoke sitting next to them. [[Misty's Psyduck]] comes out of its Poké Ball and talks to the Slowpoke. After what seems to be some random, unintelligent conversation, a Krabby comes out the the water. It first grabs onto Slowpoke's tail, and then Psyduck's, leaving it in great pain jumping up and down. The team decides to go have some lunch for a break.

Meanwhile, {{an|Giovanni|Team Rocket's Boss}} is taking a vacation on the beach and making Jessie and James dig for clams. Upset that they cannot take a break, James digs up a Shellder and decides to try to capture it. James calls out Weezing and defeats the Shellder with {{m|Haze}}, but Jessie steps up to capture it. They go to the boss, but he is annoyed with them as usual. He orders them to steal all the Pokémon from Westwood's lab. The Team Rocket members arrive in a parasail and startle everyone, especially Professor Westwood, who tries to escape. They find that the only Pokémon Professor Westwood has is the Slowpoke. Westwood tries to run away with his Slowpoke, but Team Rocket catches up and sends out the Shellder to make it evolve into Slowbro. They have a hard time with it, and it accidentally {{m|Clamp|clamps}} onto Psyduck’s tail instead. Jessie gets mad and throws the Shellder again, but it clamps onto Psyduck's head this time, giving it a major headache.

Psyduck, now much more powerful because of its headache, uses {{m|Disable}} to stop everyone and causes Team Rocket to fly off into the distance with {{m|Confusion}}. As Slowpoke walks toward Psyduck to say thanks, it trips and Shellder clamps onto its tail, evolving it. Team Rocket runs back to grab Slowbro, but it uses {{m|Mega Punch}}, causing Team Rocket to blast off again. Westwood figures out why Slowpoke evolves, which is because both Pokémon benefit: Shellder balances Slowpoke so it can use Mega Punch, and Shellder gains land transportation on Slowpoke’s tail. The episode ends as Psyduck goes to say goodbye to Slowbro, though it only looks like meaningless conversation.

==Major events==
*[[James's Weezing]] is revealed to know {{m|Haze}}.
*[[Jessie]] captures a {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by Team Rocket|Shellder}}, but it merges with a {{p|Slowpoke}} and evolves into a {{p|Slowbro}}.

==Trivia==
* Giovanni references the time that {{an|Mewtwo}} destroyed the Team Rocket Base.
* Part of {{an|Professor Oak|Professor Oak's}} [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Lecture|Pokémon Lecture]] for this episode was used in the dub as part of the introduction to the VHS of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
* The book [[Prepare for Trouble]] is based on this episode.
* Meowth may be imitating {{wp|Moe Howard}} from {{wp|The Three Stooges}} after Shellder appears and sticks out its tongue: "Oh, you're a wise guy, huh?"
** If this is correct, this is the second time the {{pkmn|anime}} has made an allusion to the Stooges; the first time was in ''[[EP033|The Flame Pokémon-athon!]]''.
===Errors===
* In the beginning of the scene where Giovanni is yelling at Jessie and James, he is barefoot. He is shown later in that same scene with blue sandals on.
* Shellder was [[Fainting|knocked out]] by [[James's Weezing]]'s {{m|Haze}} attack. In the games, Haze does no damage and therefore couldn't replicate this effect. Regardless, Shellder is resistant against {{type|Ice}} attacks, which would make this even more unlikely.
* When Slowbro uses {{m|Amnesia}}, Ash and co. are stunned and Brock says "That's supposed to make its opponents forget!" This is not actually true, as Amnesia affects the user only in the games as well.
* Meowth calls the Shellder a crustacean - this is incorrect, as Shellder (the "Bivalve Pokémon") is a mollusk.

'''Showdown at the Po-ké Corral''' (Japanese: '''ライバルたいけつ！オーキドけんきゅうじょ''' ''Rival Confrontation! {{tt|Ōkido|Oak}} Laboratory'') is the 65th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 8, 1998 and in the United States on September 30, 1999.

{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
The episode starts off with a crowd of people cheering for our hero, {{Ash}}. He throws his [[Poké Ball]], happy to be competing in the Indigo League. However, upon throwing the ball, it comes right back at Ash, becoming ever-so large. Fortunately for him, it was just a nightmare. Unfortunately for him, he wakes up with [[Mimey|Mr. Mime]] using the vacuum to clean his face.

Giving a big yawn, Ash walks into the kitchen where {{Ashfr|his friends}} and [[Delia Ketchum|mother]] are waiting for him. He tells his mother what had happened, to which she replies that he cleans whatever is dirty. {{an|Misty}} smirks and tells him it was okay to go another week without a bath. When Ash tells Mr. Mime to suck the smirk off Misty's face, Mr. Mime does nothing. His mother claims that Mr. Mime only listens to her and has him go pick vegetables from the garden.

The episode then switches to [[Team Rocket]] walking down a dirt path to go back to Team Rocket Headquarters. They begin complaining about how they haven't successfully captured a single Pokémon for {{an|Giovanni|their Boss}}. Too afraid to see what the Boss would say, they quickly yell they quit before trying to run off. Before taking a few steps, the Headquarters explodes and a {{an|Mewtwo|mysterious Pokémon}} flies out of the debris. Team Rocket turns around and run toward the Headquarters.

Once their boss sees them, he automatically assumed that they have more bad news for him. Frightened, [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} hide behind [[James]]. Before he can answer, a helicopter comes for Giovanni. Jessie asks if there is anything they can do, to which Giovanni replies that they can do their job for a change. He then boards the helicopter with his {{TP|Giovanni|Persian}}. With renewed confidence, Team Rocket aspires to catch more Pokémon.

The episode then switches to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s laboratory. Professor Oak seems excited to see {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}.

Ash seems unhappy when he sees {{Gary}}, his long-time childhood friend and bitter rival, and Professor Oak's grandson. They both immediately begin to argue before Professor Oak tells them that the two top {{pkmn|Trainer}}s of [[Pallet Town]] should get along. Both are in disbelief that the other could be considered a 'top trainer.' Then {{AP|Krabby}} walks over with a few drinks. Once Gary gets a look at Ash's Krabby, he doesn't think much of it. Professor Oak then goes on to talk about the other trainers from Pallet Town. They were off to a great start, but couldn't cut it because of the lack of skills. Professor Oak said that Gary had ten [[badge]]s, while Ash had eight.

Ash, pumped about the Pokémon League, tries to run off before Gary calls to him, asking him if he even knew where the League was going to take place. Of course, Ash has no idea because he came to find that out. Professor Oak tells him that the Pokémon League would be on top of the Indigo Plateau in two months, and more than 200 Trainers would be competing. Ash figured that he'd beat them all, but Gary thought that he'd beat Ash either way.

The episode switches to a view of Ash's house. A doorbell rings and Ash's mom goes to answer it. Team Rocket is at the door, [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised as a news crew]]. They claim they are from PNN, Pokémon News Network for short, and they want to interview her son for a show called 'Pokémon Masters of Tomorrow'. Upon asking if Ash is home, they are literally swept off their feet by Mimey doing his chores. Delia tells them that her son is with his friends at Professor Oak's laboratory.

Going back to Professor Oak's lab, Gary mocks Ash's Krabby and shows off his own – a {{pkmn2|giant}} Krabby. He then goes on to say that he rotates his Pokémon, and that Ash probably didn't. He also states that Ash probably uses the same Pokémon all the time. {{an|Brock}} asks what kind of Pokémon Gary would use against his {{TP|Brock|Geodude}}. Gary says he'd use a {{type2|Water}} and have a {{type2|Grass}} as back-up, and asks Ash what kind of Pokémon he'd use. Misty then answers that Ash would use Pikachu. Gary mocks him, saying it'd be a bad move to match an {{type2|Electric}} with a {{type2|Rock}}.

Finally, Gary asks him how many Pokémon he's captured. Professor Oak scans their [[Pokédex]], to find that Gary has seen only 60 Pokémon, while Ash has seen more than 100. However, Gary captured way more Pokémon than Ash did. Gary then suggests to go see all of the Pokémon he's caught, and Professor Oak agrees.

Upon arriving at the lab where Professor Oak keeps all of the Pokémon from Pallet Trainers, there seems to be thousands of Pokémon. Ash has his own shelf with his thirty {{AP|Tauros}} [[Poké Ball#Safari Ball|Safari Balls]], and one Poké Ball. Gary is then shown to have caught 200 Pokémon, if more than one of the same types are included. Gary says that the more Pokémon a trainer has, the better chance of winning. Ash retaliates, saying that Gary's Pokémon are not his friends, and that being friends with Pokémon is more important.

Professor Oak goes on to explain that people have different personalities, thus different ways of caring for Pokémon. He also says that Pokémon needed to be respected and cared for like people. Brock asks if that was why he decided to take care of so many different Pokémon. Professor Oak tells them that is exactly the reason, because he wants to learn more about Pokémon and their mysteries.

The episode switches to Team Rocket, out of their disguises. They take the back route to Professor Oak's research field. By accident, Jessie kicks a pebble into a tree, knocking down {{p|Kakuna}}. In an instant, a swarm of {{p|Beedrill}} fly at them. Team Rocket make a break for it, only to slam into a {{p|Snorlax}}.

Again, the episode goes back to the lab. Professor Oak explains his day, and says that he starts off by checking on all of the Pokémon's health. He then decides which to let out of their Poké Balls and into a habitat built especially for that type, and feeds them breakfast. By the afternoon, he studies Pokémon and has recently been studying individual Pokémon of the same types. Then it is time for dinner and he puts the Pokémon back in their Poké Balls.

As they walk through the field, a {{p|Doduo}} walks up to the gang. It is revealed to be Gary's Doduo. Professor Oak then states that Pokémon frequently become more and more like their Trainers. Ash then says that Misty is more like {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, and Brock begins to go on about how, if [[Suzy]] still loves her {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}, then Suzy loves him. After explaining that since {{AP|Muk}} and Krabby usually stay with him, that they've become more like him, Muk rushes over and {{m|Body Slam|tackles}} Professor Oak to the ground.

The episode switches back to Team Rocket climbing rocks to get to Professor Oak's lab after escaping the Beedrill. Jessie accidentally grabs hands with a {{p|Geodude}}. Geodude blushes, but is thrown away. When Jessie puts her hand back down, it lands atop of a {{p|Sandshrew}}'s head. Sandshrew, unlike Geodude, is angry and {{m|Fury Swipes|scratches Jessie's face multiple times}}. Then it kicks off Jessie's face and runs off. Suddenly, an angered {{p|Onix}} comes up from out of the ground and starts chasing Team Rocket.

The episode then switches back to the gang. Misty is seen admiring the water Pokémon. Ash then compliments that Professor Oak must have all the kinds of Pokémon there are. Professor Oak disagrees and says that there are many more Pokémon not yet discovered. Ash thinks about it for a moment, and realizes that Togepi is a Pokémon no one ever saw before, and then he remembers {{an|Ho-Oh|the mysterious Pokémon}} he saw at the beginning of his journey.

Ash and Gary both agree that they want to catch as many Pokémon as they can. Gary then suggests a battle for practice. Before Ash can respond, there is an explosion at the far-end of the field, followed by some smoke. Professor Oak realizes it was coming from the electric Pokémon preserve. Upon arrival, they see that many {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} have blown up because Team Rocket trotted onto their territory.

Team Rocket then tells them that they are there to steal Pikachu. Gary and Professor Oak are stunned to hear a talking Meowth. Team Rocket then does their motto. Gary challenges them to a fight, but before the fight begins, Ash's thirty Tauros stampede at them, sending them blasting off. Gary then makes his departure, saying that he and Ash could have their battle at the Pokémon League. Ash agrees and says that he'd get working right away. Professor Oak makes him and his friends fix the fence Ash's Tauros broke, first. Ash and his friends then begin working on the fence, knowing they'll have plenty of time to train. The Pokémon League isn't for two months.

==Major events==
* This marks the first appearance of Ash's {{AP|Tauros}} in the English [[dub]], since [[EP035|the episode]] where they were caught was never aired.
*{{Ash}} and {{Gary}} both learn that the [[Pokémon League]] will be held at the [[Indigo Plateau]].
*{{an|Mewtwo}} leaves {{an|Giovanni}} and destroys his headquarters.

==Trivia==
* ''[[Meowth's Song]]'' replaced ''[[Pokémon Ondo]]'' as the ending.
* This episode is preceded by ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'' and ''[[Snow Way Out!]]'' in the dub.
* This episode's dub title is a reference to the historical event, {{wp|Gunfight at the O.K. Corral|Showdown at the O.K. Corral}}.
* Mewtwo makes its final cameo appearance before the debut of the movie, ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. It is seen blasting out of Team Rocket headquarters, causing it to explode. This scene is reshown in the movie.
* When Professor Oak is explaining his daily routine to Ash and friends, the frame for the clips shows various symbols of {{TCG|Energy|Energies}} from the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}}. The same frame is also shown on Oak's computer in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]''.
** Additionally, the Psychic symbol is not seen on the frame.
* When Gary asks Ash what kind of Pokémon he'd use against a {{p|Geodude}}, Misty said that Ash would use Pikachu, to which Gary responds that an {{type2|Electric}} against a {{type2|Rock}} would be a bad match-up. This is untrue, however, because Electric attacks against Rock-types would do normal damage. However the match up would still be bad since Geodude is also a dual {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon. However in the episode ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', Ash's Pikachu defeats Brock's Geodude. Because most of the Rock-types were also part {{type2|Ground}} in [[Generation I]], it is commonly confused.

===Errors===
* When the lab's Pokémon are seen, a few Nidoran♂ and Nidoran♀ are present. The males are colored blue and the females are purple, when it should be vice-versa. Some now might say that they were shiny, due to their shiny sprite coloring, but game-based official {{shiny|alternate coloration}} did not debut in the anime until [[Pokémon: The Johto Journeys]].
*Additionally, a {{p|Primeape}} is shown as having the body of a {{p|Mankey}} as its arms are that of Primeape but its body is that of Mankey's.
* The title card for this episode misspells ''Corral'' as ''Corrall''.

* Gary and Professor Oak are shocked to hear a talking Meowth when Team Rocket shows up. However, Gary has already met this Meowth, and even responded to it by thwarting its plan to blow up Ash's side of the battle arena in ''[[EP063|Battle of the Badge]]''.

==Synopsis==
The episode starts off with a crowd of people cheering for our hero, {{Ash}}. He throws his [[Poké Ball]], happy to be competing in the Indigo League. However, upon throwing the ball, it comes right back at Ash, becoming ever-so large. Fortunately for him, it was just a nightmare. Unfortunately for him, he wakes up with [[Mimey|Mr. Mime]] using the vacuum to clean his face.

Giving a big yawn, Ash walks into the kitchen where {{Ashfr|his friends}} and [[Delia Ketchum|mother]] are waiting for him. He tells his mother what had happened, to which she replies that he cleans whatever is dirty. {{an|Misty}} smirks and tells him it was okay to go another week without a bath. When Ash tells Mr. Mime to suck the smirk off Misty's face, Mr. Mime does nothing. His mother claims that Mr. Mime only listens to her and has him go pick vegetables from the garden.

The episode then switches to [[Team Rocket]] walking down a dirt path to go back to Team Rocket Headquarters. They begin complaining about how they haven't successfully captured a single Pokémon for {{an|Giovanni|their Boss}}. Too afraid to see what the Boss would say, they quickly yell they quit before trying to run off. Before taking a few steps, the Headquarters explodes and a {{an|Mewtwo|mysterious Pokémon}} flies out of the debris. Team Rocket turns around and run toward the Headquarters.

Once their boss sees them, he automatically assumed that they have more bad news for him. Frightened, [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} hide behind [[James]]. Before he can answer, a helicopter comes for Giovanni. Jessie asks if there is anything they can do, to which Giovanni replies that they can do their job for a change. He then boards the helicopter with his {{TP|Giovanni|Persian}}. With renewed confidence, Team Rocket aspires to catch more Pokémon.

The episode then switches to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s laboratory. Professor Oak seems excited to see {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}.

Ash seems unhappy when he sees {{Gary}}, his long-time childhood friend and bitter rival, and Professor Oak's grandson. They both immediately begin to argue before Professor Oak tells them that the two top {{pkmn|Trainer}}s of [[Pallet Town]] should get along. Both are in disbelief that the other could be considered a 'top trainer.' Then {{AP|Krabby}} walks over with a few drinks. Once Gary gets a look at Ash's Krabby, he doesn't think much of it. Professor Oak then goes on to talk about the other trainers from Pallet Town. They were off to a great start, but couldn't cut it because of the lack of skills. Professor Oak said that Gary had ten [[badge]]s, while Ash had eight.

Ash, pumped about the Pokémon League, tries to run off before Gary calls to him, asking him if he even knew where the League was going to take place. Of course, Ash has no idea because he came to find that out. Professor Oak tells him that the Pokémon League would be on top of the Indigo Plateau in two months, and more than 200 Trainers would be competing. Ash figured that he'd beat them all, but Gary thought that he'd beat Ash either way.

The episode switches to a view of Ash's house. A doorbell rings and Ash's mom goes to answer it. Team Rocket is at the door, [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised as a news crew]]. They claim they are from PNN, Pokémon News Network for short, and they want to interview her son for a show called 'Pokémon Masters of Tomorrow'. Upon asking if Ash is home, they are literally swept off their feet by Mimey doing his chores. Delia tells them that her son is with his friends at Professor Oak's laboratory.

Going back to Professor Oak's lab, Gary mocks Ash's Krabby and shows off his own – a {{pkmn2|giant}} Krabby. He then goes on to say that he rotates his Pokémon, and that Ash probably didn't. He also states that Ash probably uses the same Pokémon all the time. {{an|Brock}} asks what kind of Pokémon Gary would use against his {{TP|Brock|Geodude}}. Gary says he'd use a {{type2|Water}} and have a {{type2|Grass}} as back-up, and asks Ash what kind of Pokémon he'd use. Misty then answers that Ash would use Pikachu. Gary mocks him, saying it'd be a bad move to match an {{type2|Electric}} with a {{type2|Rock}}.

Finally, Gary asks him how many Pokémon he's captured. Professor Oak scans their [[Pokédex]], to find that Gary has seen only 60 Pokémon, while Ash has seen more than 100. However, Gary captured way more Pokémon than Ash did. Gary then suggests to go see all of the Pokémon he's caught, and Professor Oak agrees.

Upon arriving at the lab where Professor Oak keeps all of the Pokémon from Pallet Trainers, there seems to be thousands of Pokémon. Ash has his own shelf with his thirty {{AP|Tauros}} [[Poké Ball#Safari Ball|Safari Balls]], and one Poké Ball. Gary is then shown to have caught 200 Pokémon, if more than one of the same types are included. Gary says that the more Pokémon a trainer has, the better chance of winning. Ash retaliates, saying that Gary's Pokémon are not his friends, and that being friends with Pokémon is more important.

Professor Oak goes on to explain that people have different personalities, thus different ways of caring for Pokémon. He also says that Pokémon needed to be respected and cared for like people. Brock asks if that was why he decided to take care of so many different Pokémon. Professor Oak tells them that is exactly the reason, because he wants to learn more about Pokémon and their mysteries.

The episode switches to Team Rocket, out of their disguises. They take the back route to Professor Oak's research field. By accident, Jessie kicks a pebble into a tree, knocking down {{p|Kakuna}}. In an instant, a swarm of {{p|Beedrill}} fly at them. Team Rocket make a break for it, only to slam into a {{p|Snorlax}}.

Again, the episode goes back to the lab. Professor Oak explains his day, and says that he starts off by checking on all of the Pokémon's health. He then decides which to let out of their Poké Balls and into a habitat built especially for that type, and feeds them breakfast. By the afternoon, he studies Pokémon and has recently been studying individual Pokémon of the same types. Then it is time for dinner and he puts the Pokémon back in their Poké Balls.

As they walk through the field, a {{p|Doduo}} walks up to the gang. It is revealed to be Gary's Doduo. Professor Oak then states that Pokémon frequently become more and more like their Trainers. Ash then says that Misty is more like {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, and Brock begins to go on about how, if [[Suzy]] still loves her {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}, then Suzy loves him. After explaining that since {{AP|Muk}} and Krabby usually stay with him, that they've become more like him, Muk rushes over and {{m|Body Slam|tackles}} Professor Oak to the ground.

The episode switches back to Team Rocket climbing rocks to get to Professor Oak's lab after escaping the Beedrill. Jessie accidentally grabs hands with a {{p|Geodude}}. Geodude blushes, but is thrown away. When Jessie puts her hand back down, it lands atop of a {{p|Sandshrew}}'s head. Sandshrew, unlike Geodude, is angry and {{m|Fury Swipes|scratches Jessie's face multiple times}}. Then it kicks off Jessie's face and runs off. Suddenly, an angered {{p|Onix}} comes up from out of the ground and starts chasing Team Rocket.

The episode then switches back to the gang. Misty is seen admiring the water Pokémon. Ash then compliments that Professor Oak must have all the kinds of Pokémon there are. Professor Oak disagrees and says that there are many more Pokémon not yet discovered. Ash thinks about it for a moment, and realizes that Togepi is a Pokémon no one ever saw before, and then he remembers {{an|Ho-Oh|the mysterious Pokémon}} he saw at the beginning of his journey.

Ash and Gary both agree that they want to catch as many Pokémon as they can. Gary then suggests a battle for practice. Before Ash can respond, there is an explosion at the far-end of the field, followed by some smoke. Professor Oak realizes it was coming from the electric Pokémon preserve. Upon arrival, they see that many {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} have blown up because Team Rocket trotted onto their territory.

Team Rocket then tells them that they are there to steal Pikachu. Gary and Professor Oak are stunned to hear a talking Meowth. Team Rocket then does their motto. Gary challenges them to a fight, but before the fight begins, Ash's thirty Tauros stampede at them, sending them blasting off. Gary then makes his departure, saying that he and Ash could have their battle at the Pokémon League. Ash agrees and says that he'd get working right away. Professor Oak makes him and his friends fix the fence Ash's Tauros broke, first. Ash and his friends then begin working on the fence, knowing they'll have plenty of time to train. The Pokémon League isn't for two months.

==Trivia==
* ''[[Meowth's Song]]'' replaced ''[[Pokémon Ondo]]'' as the ending.
* This episode is preceded by ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'' and ''[[Snow Way Out!]]'' in the dub.
* This episode's dub title is a reference to the historical event, {{wp|Gunfight at the O.K. Corral|Showdown at the O.K. Corral}}.
* Mewtwo makes its final cameo appearance before the debut of the movie, ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. It is seen blasting out of Team Rocket headquarters, causing it to explode. This scene is reshown in the movie.
* When Professor Oak is explaining his daily routine to Ash and friends, the frame for the clips shows various symbols of {{TCG|Energy|Energies}} from the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}}. The same frame is also shown on Oak's computer in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]''.
** Additionally, the Psychic symbol is not seen on the frame.
* When Gary asks Ash what kind of Pokémon he'd use against a {{p|Geodude}}, Misty said that Ash would use Pikachu, to which Gary responds that an {{type2|Electric}} against a {{type2|Rock}} would be a bad match-up. This is untrue, however, because Electric attacks against Rock-types would do normal damage. However the match up would still be bad since Geodude is also a dual {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon. However in the episode ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', Ash's Pikachu defeats Brock's Geodude. Because most of the Rock-types were also part {{type2|Ground}} in [[Generation I]], it is commonly confused.

===Errors===
* When the lab's Pokémon are seen, a few Nidoran♂ and Nidoran♀ are present. The males are colored blue and the females are purple, when it should be vice-versa. Some now might say that they were shiny, due to their shiny sprite coloring, but game-based official {{shiny|alternate coloration}} did not debut in the anime until [[Pokémon: The Johto Journeys]].
*Additionally, a {{p|Primeape}} is shown as having the body of a {{p|Mankey}} as its arms are that of Primeape but its body is that of Mankey's.
* The title card for this episode misspells ''Corral'' as ''Corrall''.

* Gary and Professor Oak are shocked to hear a talking Meowth when Team Rocket shows up. However, Gary has already met this Meowth, and even responded to it by thwarting its plan to blow up Ash's side of the battle arena in ''[[EP063|Battle of the Badge]]''.

'''Showdown at the Po-ké Corral''' (Japanese: '''ライバルたいけつ！オーキドけんきゅうじょ''' ''Rival Confrontation! {{tt|Ōkido|Oak}} Laboratory'') is the 65th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 8, 1998 and in the United States on September 30, 1999.

{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
The episode starts off with a crowd of people cheering for our hero, {{Ash}}. He throws his [[Poké Ball]], happy to be competing in the Indigo League. However, upon throwing the ball, it comes right back at Ash, becoming ever-so large. Fortunately for him, it was just a nightmare. Unfortunately for him, he wakes up with [[Mimey|Mr. Mime]] using the vacuum to clean his face.

Giving a big yawn, Ash walks into the kitchen where {{Ashfr|his friends}} and [[Delia Ketchum|mother]] are waiting for him. He tells his mother what had happened, to which she replies that he cleans whatever is dirty. {{an|Misty}} smirks and tells him it was okay to go another week without a bath. When Ash tells Mr. Mime to suck the smirk off Misty's face, Mr. Mime does nothing. His mother claims that Mr. Mime only listens to her and has him go pick vegetables from the garden.

The episode then switches to [[Team Rocket]] walking down a dirt path to go back to Team Rocket Headquarters. They begin complaining about how they haven't successfully captured a single Pokémon for {{an|Giovanni|their Boss}}. Too afraid to see what the Boss would say, they quickly yell they quit before trying to run off. Before taking a few steps, the Headquarters explodes and a {{an|Mewtwo|mysterious Pokémon}} flies out of the debris. Team Rocket turns around and run toward the Headquarters.

Once their boss sees them, he automatically assumed that they have more bad news for him. Frightened, [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} hide behind [[James]]. Before he can answer, a helicopter comes for Giovanni. Jessie asks if there is anything they can do, to which Giovanni replies that they can do their job for a change. He then boards the helicopter with his {{TP|Giovanni|Persian}}. With renewed confidence, Team Rocket aspires to catch more Pokémon.

The episode then switches to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s laboratory. Professor Oak seems excited to see {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}.

Ash seems unhappy when he sees {{Gary}}, his long-time childhood friend and bitter rival, and Professor Oak's grandson. They both immediately begin to argue before Professor Oak tells them that the two top {{pkmn|Trainer}}s of [[Pallet Town]] should get along. Both are in disbelief that the other could be considered a 'top trainer.' Then {{AP|Krabby}} walks over with a few drinks. Once Gary gets a look at Ash's Krabby, he doesn't think much of it. Professor Oak then goes on to talk about the other trainers from Pallet Town. They were off to a great start, but couldn't cut it because of the lack of skills. Professor Oak said that Gary had ten [[badge]]s, while Ash had eight.

Ash, pumped about the Pokémon League, tries to run off before Gary calls to him, asking him if he even knew where the League was going to take place. Of course, Ash has no idea because he came to find that out. Professor Oak tells him that the Pokémon League would be on top of the Indigo Plateau in two months, and more than 200 Trainers would be competing. Ash figured that he'd beat them all, but Gary thought that he'd beat Ash either way.

The episode switches to a view of Ash's house. A doorbell rings and Ash's mom goes to answer it. Team Rocket is at the door, [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised as a news crew]]. They claim they are from PNN, Pokémon News Network for short, and they want to interview her son for a show called 'Pokémon Masters of Tomorrow'. Upon asking if Ash is home, they are literally swept off their feet by Mimey doing his chores. Delia tells them that her son is with his friends at Professor Oak's laboratory.

Going back to Professor Oak's lab, Gary mocks Ash's Krabby and shows off his own – a {{pkmn2|giant}} Krabby. He then goes on to say that he rotates his Pokémon, and that Ash probably didn't. He also states that Ash probably uses the same Pokémon all the time. {{an|Brock}} asks what kind of Pokémon Gary would use against his {{TP|Brock|Geodude}}. Gary says he'd use a {{type2|Water}} and have a {{type2|Grass}} as back-up, and asks Ash what kind of Pokémon he'd use. Misty then answers that Ash would use Pikachu. Gary mocks him, saying it'd be a bad move to match an {{type2|Electric}} with a {{type2|Rock}}.

Finally, Gary asks him how many Pokémon he's captured. Professor Oak scans their [[Pokédex]], to find that Gary has seen only 60 Pokémon, while Ash has seen more than 100. However, Gary captured way more Pokémon than Ash did. Gary then suggests to go see all of the Pokémon he's caught, and Professor Oak agrees.

Upon arriving at the lab where Professor Oak keeps all of the Pokémon from Pallet Trainers, there seems to be thousands of Pokémon. Ash has his own shelf with his thirty {{AP|Tauros}} [[Poké Ball#Safari Ball|Safari Balls]], and one Poké Ball. Gary is then shown to have caught 200 Pokémon, if more than one of the same types are included. Gary says that the more Pokémon a trainer has, the better chance of winning. Ash retaliates, saying that Gary's Pokémon are not his friends, and that being friends with Pokémon is more important.

Professor Oak goes on to explain that people have different personalities, thus different ways of caring for Pokémon. He also says that Pokémon needed to be respected and cared for like people. Brock asks if that was why he decided to take care of so many different Pokémon. Professor Oak tells them that is exactly the reason, because he wants to learn more about Pokémon and their mysteries.

The episode switches to Team Rocket, out of their disguises. They take the back route to Professor Oak's research field. By accident, Jessie kicks a pebble into a tree, knocking down {{p|Kakuna}}. In an instant, a swarm of {{p|Beedrill}} fly at them. Team Rocket make a break for it, only to slam into a {{p|Snorlax}}.

Again, the episode goes back to the lab. Professor Oak explains his day, and says that he starts off by checking on all of the Pokémon's health. He then decides which to let out of their Poké Balls and into a habitat built especially for that type, and feeds them breakfast. By the afternoon, he studies Pokémon and has recently been studying individual Pokémon of the same types. Then it is time for dinner and he puts the Pokémon back in their Poké Balls.

As they walk through the field, a {{p|Doduo}} walks up to the gang. It is revealed to be Gary's Doduo. Professor Oak then states that Pokémon frequently become more and more like their Trainers. Ash then says that Misty is more like {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, and Brock begins to go on about how, if [[Suzy]] still loves her {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}, then Suzy loves him. After explaining that since {{AP|Muk}} and Krabby usually stay with him, that they've become more like him, Muk rushes over and {{m|Body Slam|tackles}} Professor Oak to the ground.

The episode switches back to Team Rocket climbing rocks to get to Professor Oak's lab after escaping the Beedrill. Jessie accidentally grabs hands with a {{p|Geodude}}. Geodude blushes, but is thrown away. When Jessie puts her hand back down, it lands atop of a {{p|Sandshrew}}'s head. Sandshrew, unlike Geodude, is angry and {{m|Fury Swipes|scratches Jessie's face multiple times}}. Then it kicks off Jessie's face and runs off. Suddenly, an angered {{p|Onix}} comes up from out of the ground and starts chasing Team Rocket.

The episode then switches back to the gang. Misty is seen admiring the water Pokémon. Ash then compliments that Professor Oak must have all the kinds of Pokémon there are. Professor Oak disagrees and says that there are many more Pokémon not yet discovered. Ash thinks about it for a moment, and realizes that Togepi is a Pokémon no one ever saw before, and then he remembers {{an|Ho-Oh|the mysterious Pokémon}} he saw at the beginning of his journey.

Ash and Gary both agree that they want to catch as many Pokémon as they can. Gary then suggests a battle for practice. Before Ash can respond, there is an explosion at the far-end of the field, followed by some smoke. Professor Oak realizes it was coming from the electric Pokémon preserve. Upon arrival, they see that many {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} have blown up because Team Rocket trotted onto their territory.

Team Rocket then tells them that they are there to steal Pikachu. Gary and Professor Oak are stunned to hear a talking Meowth. Team Rocket then does their motto. Gary challenges them to a fight, but before the fight begins, Ash's thirty Tauros stampede at them, sending them blasting off. Gary then makes his departure, saying that he and Ash could have their battle at the Pokémon League. Ash agrees and says that he'd get working right away. Professor Oak makes him and his friends fix the fence Ash's Tauros broke, first. Ash and his friends then begin working on the fence, knowing they'll have plenty of time to train. The Pokémon League isn't for two months.
