'''Arceus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アルセウス''' ''Arceus'') is a {{type2|Normal}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is currently the final Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]] as of [[Generation IV]]. Like {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, Arceus was not officially recognized by Nintendo until February 2009, the year of its debut movie. It was later revealed by the [[Pokémon.com|official site]] on August 3rd, 2009.

Arceus is also known as "The Original One," as it is said that it created [[Sinnoh]], and possibly the entire [[Pokémon universe]], along with the [[lake guardians]] and [[dragon trio]]. Arceus can only be found in the wild legitimately with the [[Azure Flute]], which has not yet been distributed [[Nintendo event|officially]] and can currently only be obtained by cheating. However, Arceus itself was once distributed at {{wp|Toys "R" Us}} stores in the United States and Puerto Rico from November 7 to November 15, 2009.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Arceus is an equine being similar to a {{wp|Qilin}} or {{wp|Centaur}}. Its body color is white with a gray, vertically-striated underside, the pattern of which has similar recurrences on the underside of Arceus's mane, tail, and face, and Arceus's four pointed feet are tipped with gold hooves. Its mane is quite long, jutting away from its head, and its face is gray, with green eyes and red pupils, and a green circular pattern below its eyes. Arceus also has a streak of gold coloration on its head, and ears that point upward. Its neck is fairly long, with two pairs of extrusions to the sides, and a flap-like feature on the neck's underside that is colored white like much of the body. It also has a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body by its round abdomen, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on Arceus's {{t|{{arceustype}}|current type}}. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it. The pattern of striated gray of Arceus's underbelly resumes past Arceus's waist, the underside of Arceus's limbs also being gray in coloration, and with extrusions at the tops of the legs. Arceus's tail is fairly like its mane in shape and coloration.

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

====Special abilities====
[[File:Arceus_Formes.gif|right|thumb|An animation displaying Arceus's different colorings while holding plates]]
According to legend, Arceus is thought to have created the [[Sinnoh]] region and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], the [[lake guardians]]: {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Azelf}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and the [[dragon trio]]: {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}.

Arceus is {{a|Multitype|multifarious}}; it can change forms and types with the use of the special [[plate]]s.

Arceus is [[signature move|the only known]] Pokémon who can learn {{m|Judgment}}. Arceus can also use many attacks of various types, but to a lesser extent than {{p|Smeargle}} or {{p|Mew}}. Arceus is also the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon other than Smeargle who can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}}, although it must become a {{type2|Dragon}} (by holding a {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}) in order to learn it.

According to the anime, its power can also bring back things that it once destroyed or make certain things vanish into thin air. Arceus also has the ability to halt time.

===Behavior===
While normally a kind, heroic and benevolent Pokémon, Arceus does not suffer fools gladly, and will attack in a violent rampage if betrayed or deceived. It also holds long grudges if angered.

===Habitat===
Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]], which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]]. However, in the [[M12|twelfth Pokémon movie]], it seems to live in a wide dimension of stars and galaxies.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
In ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' it is said to "feed" off the energy of the elemental plates, but is seen in the games holding a Rowap Berry

==In the anime==
[[File:Arceus movie 12.png|thumb|250px|right|{{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}} in the anime]]
{{an|Arceus}} made its debut in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. It was angry at the people of [[Michina Town]] for [[Damos]]'s unwitting betrayal of it in ancient times, and so attempted to destroy the land. When Ash and his friends are teleported by {{an|Dialga}} to ancient times, they directly influence the event, changing the future for the better so that Arceus will stop its destruction.

In ''[[DP152|Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', although Arceus is neither seen nor named, the [[Red Chain]] is said to contain the power of 'The Original One'. Using the Red Chain, Cyrus takes control of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} by causing a red ring similar to the one surrounding Arceus' body to appear around their bodies.

Arceus makes a cameo in the opening ''[[The Greatest - Everyday!]]'', along with the [[dragon trio]].

==In the manga==
[[Image:Encounter Arceus HGSS Special.png|thumb|right|Gold encountering Arceus]]Arceus appears as a central character in the Movie 12 manga adaptation, reprising its role from the film. After Arceus saved the world from a meteor, [[Damos]] took care of it. It gave Damos the [[Jewel of Life]] to make the land of [[Michina]] rich and fertile. Damos then betrayed Arceus, and it has been outraged ever since.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Gold}} and his team battle a wild Arceus in the opening pages of the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, and even [[Exbo]]'s powerful {{m|Blast Burn}} attack is unable to damage the incredible beast.

A few rounds later, it is revealed that it showed up in front of {{adv|Crystal}} and the [[Team Rocket]] Executives, and the former tried to catch it.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Arceus (TCG)}}
Arceus appears in the TCG in all nine {{TCG|elemental types}}, and a player can have as many Arceus cards in their deck as they like, unlike all other cards in the game (besides {{TCG|Basic Energy card}}s). Cards based on Arceus first appeared in the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus|Arceus}} expansion set.

==Trivia==
[[File:Spr 4p 493-Unknown.png|thumb|right|Normal-color sprite for {{type2|???}} Arceus]][[File:Spr 4p 493-Unknown s.png|thumb|right|{{pkmn2|Shiny}} sprite for {{type2|???}} Arceus]]
*At level 80, Arceus is the second-highest level Pokémon available for capture, after the {{p|Magikarp}} in the [[Resort Area]] in {{game|Platinum}} (which can be caught at any level). However, the [[Azure Flute]] needed to encounter it has never been made officially available.
* Arceus's English name has had three different pronunciations. Before it was officially revealed, fans pronounced it as "AR-see-oos", as does [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]. Then, a promotional trailer for ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' pronounced it as "Ar-SAY-us". Its official pronunciation was then revealed in a [[Pokémon.com]] mailbag as "ARK-ee-us". Its original pronunciation is still in popular usage, however, and isn't considered to be incorrect.
* Arceus's [[base stat]] total is 720, higher than any other Pokémon.
** In its base form, Arceus has the highest [[base stat]] in {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.
* Arceus has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}.
* The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{t|???}} type. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable, as there is no [[plate]] in the code that can be used for this. It is possible this sprite was programmed in to prevent game crashes caused by tampering with Arceus's type.
* Arceus's signature move, {{m|Judgment}}, is the only move that Arceus is guaranteed [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] for, as it is always the same type as Arceus itself. However, on the battle screen, Judgment is always displayed as a {{type2|Normal}} attack.
* Even though it is said that Arceus created the world with its thousand arms, it is not shown to have any arms at all, nor can it learn hand-based or arm-based moves.
* Holding the {{DL|Plate|Sky Plate}}, Arceus is the only Pokémon able to become a pure {{type2|Flying}} outside of battle (other Pokémon can do so in battle through the use of {{m|Conversion}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, {{a|Color Change}} and {{m|Transform}}).
* With the appropriate [[plate]], Arceus is the only legendary {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, or {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.
* {{m|Earth Power}} is the only move with a fixed base power, besides {{m|Judgment}}, that Arceus learns by level-up which can receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] with a plate attached.
* Arceus is the only event-exclusive [[trio master]], needing the [[Azure Flute]] to be encountered in {{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
** Furthermore, Arceus is the only trio master of two [[Lake guardians|different]] [[Dragon trio|trios]].
* Arceus is the only Pokémon to never officially receive a [[List of Pokémon by Diamond & Pearl Battle Pokédex number|DPBP number]]. {{p|Kadabra}}, which was not released as a TCG card during the DPBP era, is assumed to be #070, as {{p|Abra}} and {{p|Alakazam}} are #069 and #071, respectively.
* The ring around Arceus's body appears to have a malevolent counterpart in the embodiment of the [[Red Chain]], as a red version of it is shown to ring Dialga and Palkia around the middle when [[Cyrus]] takes control of them in [[DP152]].
* Arceus is one of three Pokémon that can learn all of the moves ever obtainable as [[HM]]s. The two others are {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Smeargle}}.
* Arceus is the one who is rumored to have prevented all Pokémon in the future from disappearing in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]]. Dialga explains that it "was no miracle" that they were saved, and that a "greater power" saved them all. Arceus is the leader of the dragon trio, of which Dialga is a member.
*Despite having hatched from an egg, Arceus cannot breed.

===Origin===
Arceus is particularly based on a {{wp|creator deity}}, present in many world cultures. It may also be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the {{wp|Qilin}}. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the {{wp|Pangu}}, the Chinese creation deity.

Arceus may also be inspired by (or a representation of) the bodhisattva {{wp|Avalokiteśvara}}, who, in {{wp|Buddhism}}, is either pictured with eleven heads and one thousand arms (the latter of which is mentioned in Arceus's flavor text) or in a [[wp:Chenrezig|white four-armed manifestation]] (which could look similar to Arceus's Normal form).

Some inspiration may have come from a {{wp|horse}}, because of its Platinum sprite and attack movements in Pokémon Battle Revolution.

====Name origin====
Arceus's name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''. Arceus's name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'', and is derived from the ancient Greek word for "beginning", ''arkhē''. It could have also come from the Latin word ''archetypus'' (original). Alternatively, Arceus's name can be seen as a portmanteau of ''Zeus'', the most powerful of Greek gods and ''arch'' (highest). Another theory may be the combination of Zeus and Ra spelled backwards. Zeus being the king of gods and ''Ra'' being the solar god and creator (albeit in different pantheons). Those two qualities are shared by the Pokémon. Nevertheless, Arceus's name origin and possible theories have led fans to believe that Arceus may be in fact a [[wp:creator deity|creator deity]] in Pokémon form.

Arceus's name is pronounced with a soft "c" (or "s" sound) by the announcer in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]; in keeping with its probable name origin, it is pronounced with a hard "c" (or "k" sound) in television commercials and in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.

*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 阿爾宙斯 ''Ā Ěr Zhòu Sī'' - Transliteration of its Japanese name. 宙斯 also refers to {{wp|Zeus}}.

'''Arceus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アルセウス''' ''Arceus'') is a {{type2|Normal}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is currently the final Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]] as of [[Generation IV]]. Like {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, Arceus was not officially recognized by Nintendo until February 2009, the year of its debut movie. It was later revealed by the [[Pokémon.com|official site]] on August 3rd, 2009.

Arceus is also known as "The Original One," as it is said that it created [[Sinnoh]], and possibly the entire [[Pokémon universe]], along with the [[lake guardians]] and [[dragon trio]]. Arceus can only be found in the wild legitimately with the [[Azure Flute]], which has not yet been distributed [[Nintendo event|officially]] and can currently only be obtained by cheating. However, Arceus itself was once distributed at {{wp|Toys "R" Us}} stores in the United States and Puerto Rico from November 7 to November 15, 2009.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Arceus is an equine being similar to a {{wp|Qilin}} or {{wp|Centaur}}. Its body color is white with a gray, vertically-striated underside, the pattern of which has similar recurrences on the underside of Arceus's mane, tail, and face, and Arceus's four pointed feet are tipped with gold hooves. Its mane is quite long, jutting away from its head, and its face is gray, with green eyes and red pupils, and a green circular pattern below its eyes. Arceus also has a streak of gold coloration on its head, and ears that point upward. Its neck is fairly long, with two pairs of extrusions to the sides, and a flap-like feature on the neck's underside that is colored white like much of the body. It also has a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body by its round abdomen, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on Arceus's {{t|{{arceustype}}|current type}}. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it. The pattern of striated gray of Arceus's underbelly resumes past Arceus's waist, the underside of Arceus's limbs also being gray in coloration, and with extrusions at the tops of the legs. Arceus's tail is fairly like its mane in shape and coloration.

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

====Special abilities====
[[File:Arceus_Formes.gif|right|thumb|An animation displaying Arceus's different colorings while holding plates]]
According to legend, Arceus is thought to have created the [[Sinnoh]] region and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], the [[lake guardians]]: {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Azelf}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and the [[dragon trio]]: {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}.

Arceus is {{a|Multitype|multifarious}}; it can change forms and types with the use of the special [[plate]]s.

Arceus is [[signature move|the only known]] Pokémon who can learn {{m|Judgment}}. Arceus can also use many attacks of various types, but to a lesser extent than {{p|Smeargle}} or {{p|Mew}}. Arceus is also the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon other than Smeargle who can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}}, although it must become a {{type2|Dragon}} (by holding a {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}) in order to learn it.

According to the anime, its power can also bring back things that it once destroyed or make certain things vanish into thin air. Arceus also has the ability to halt time.

===Behavior===
While normally a kind, heroic and benevolent Pokémon, Arceus does not suffer fools gladly, and will attack in a violent rampage if betrayed or deceived. It also holds long grudges if angered.

===Habitat===
Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]], which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]]. However, in the [[M12|twelfth Pokémon movie]], it seems to live in a wide dimension of stars and galaxies.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
In ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' it is said to "feed" off the energy of the elemental plates, but is seen in the games holding a Rowap Berry

==In the anime==
[[File:Arceus movie 12.png|thumb|250px|right|{{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}} in the anime]]
{{an|Arceus}} made its debut in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. It was angry at the people of [[Michina Town]] for [[Damos]]'s unwitting betrayal of it in ancient times, and so attempted to destroy the land. When Ash and his friends are teleported by {{an|Dialga}} to ancient times, they directly influence the event, changing the future for the better so that Arceus will stop its destruction.

In ''[[DP152|Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', although Arceus is neither seen nor named, the [[Red Chain]] is said to contain the power of 'The Original One'. Using the Red Chain, Cyrus takes control of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} by causing a red ring similar to the one surrounding Arceus' body to appear around their bodies.

Arceus makes a cameo in the opening ''[[The Greatest - Everyday!]]'', along with the [[dragon trio]].

==In the manga==
[[Image:Encounter Arceus HGSS Special.png|thumb|right|Gold encountering Arceus]]Arceus appears as a central character in the Movie 12 manga adaptation, reprising its role from the film. After Arceus saved the world from a meteor, [[Damos]] took care of it. It gave Damos the [[Jewel of Life]] to make the land of [[Michina]] rich and fertile. Damos then betrayed Arceus, and it has been outraged ever since.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Gold}} and his team battle a wild Arceus in the opening pages of the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, and even [[Exbo]]'s powerful {{m|Blast Burn}} attack is unable to damage the incredible beast.

A few rounds later, it is revealed that it showed up in front of {{adv|Crystal}} and the [[Team Rocket]] Executives, and the former tried to catch it.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Arceus (TCG)}}
Arceus appears in the TCG in all nine {{TCG|elemental types}}, and a player can have as many Arceus cards in their deck as they like, unlike all other cards in the game (besides {{TCG|Basic Energy card}}s). Cards based on Arceus first appeared in the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus|Arceus}} expansion set.

==Trivia==
[[File:Spr 4p 493-Unknown.png|thumb|right|Normal-color sprite for {{type2|???}} Arceus]][[File:Spr 4p 493-Unknown s.png|thumb|right|{{pkmn2|Shiny}} sprite for {{type2|???}} Arceus]]
*At level 80, Arceus is the second-highest level Pokémon available for capture, after the {{p|Magikarp}} in the [[Resort Area]] in {{game|Platinum}} (which can be caught at any level). However, the [[Azure Flute]] needed to encounter it has never been made officially available.
* Arceus's English name has had three different pronunciations. Before it was officially revealed, fans pronounced it as "AR-see-oos", as does [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]. Then, a promotional trailer for ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' pronounced it as "Ar-SAY-us". Its official pronunciation was then revealed in a [[Pokémon.com]] mailbag as "ARK-ee-us". Its original pronunciation is still in popular usage, however, and isn't considered to be incorrect.
* Arceus's [[base stat]] total is 720, higher than any other Pokémon.
** In its base form, Arceus has the highest [[base stat]] in {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.
* Arceus has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}.
* The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{t|???}} type. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable, as there is no [[plate]] in the code that can be used for this. It is possible this sprite was programmed in to prevent game crashes caused by tampering with Arceus's type.
* Arceus's signature move, {{m|Judgment}}, is the only move that Arceus is guaranteed [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] for, as it is always the same type as Arceus itself. However, on the battle screen, Judgment is always displayed as a {{type2|Normal}} attack.
* Even though it is said that Arceus created the world with its thousand arms, it is not shown to have any arms at all, nor can it learn hand-based or arm-based moves.
* Holding the {{DL|Plate|Sky Plate}}, Arceus is the only Pokémon able to become a pure {{type2|Flying}} outside of battle (other Pokémon can do so in battle through the use of {{m|Conversion}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, {{a|Color Change}} and {{m|Transform}}).
* With the appropriate [[plate]], Arceus is the only legendary {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, or {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.
* {{m|Earth Power}} is the only move with a fixed base power, besides {{m|Judgment}}, that Arceus learns by level-up which can receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] with a plate attached.
* Arceus is the only event-exclusive [[trio master]], needing the [[Azure Flute]] to be encountered in {{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
** Furthermore, Arceus is the only trio master of two [[Lake guardians|different]] [[Dragon trio|trios]].
* Arceus is the only Pokémon to never officially receive a [[List of Pokémon by Diamond & Pearl Battle Pokédex number|DPBP number]]. {{p|Kadabra}}, which was not released as a TCG card during the DPBP era, is assumed to be #070, as {{p|Abra}} and {{p|Alakazam}} are #069 and #071, respectively.
* The ring around Arceus's body appears to have a malevolent counterpart in the embodiment of the [[Red Chain]], as a red version of it is shown to ring Dialga and Palkia around the middle when [[Cyrus]] takes control of them in [[DP152]].
* Arceus is one of three Pokémon that can learn all of the moves ever obtainable as [[HM]]s. The two others are {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Smeargle}}.
* Arceus is the one who is rumored to have prevented all Pokémon in the future from disappearing in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]]. Dialga explains that it "was no miracle" that they were saved, and that a "greater power" saved them all. Arceus is the leader of the dragon trio, of which Dialga is a member.
*Despite having hatched from an egg, Arceus cannot breed.

===Origin===
Arceus is particularly based on a {{wp|creator deity}}, present in many world cultures. It may also be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the {{wp|Qilin}}. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the {{wp|Pangu}}, the Chinese creation deity.

Arceus may also be inspired by (or a representation of) the bodhisattva {{wp|Avalokiteśvara}}, who, in {{wp|Buddhism}}, is either pictured with eleven heads and one thousand arms (the latter of which is mentioned in Arceus's flavor text) or in a [[wp:Chenrezig|white four-armed manifestation]] (which could look similar to Arceus's Normal form).

Some inspiration may have come from a {{wp|horse}}, because of its Platinum sprite and attack movements in Pokémon Battle Revolution.

It may also have an origin in the Chinese legend of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangu Pangu], tough the "World egg" is found in many more cultures.

====Name origin====
Arceus's name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''. Arceus's name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'', and is derived from the ancient Greek word for "beginning", ''arkhē''. It could have also come from the Latin word ''archetypus'' (original). Alternatively, Arceus's name can be seen as a portmanteau of ''Zeus'', the most powerful of Greek gods and ''arch'' (highest). Another theory may be the combination of Zeus and Ra spelled backwards. Zeus being the king of gods and ''Ra'' being the solar god and creator (albeit in different pantheons). Those two qualities are shared by the Pokémon. Nevertheless, Arceus's name origin and possible theories have led fans to believe that Arceus may be in fact a [[wp:creator deity|creator deity]] in Pokémon form.

Arceus's name is pronounced with a soft "c" (or "s" sound) by the announcer in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]; in keeping with its probable name origin, it is pronounced with a hard "c" (or "k" sound) in television commercials and in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.

==In other languages==

*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Arceus
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 아르세우스 ''Arceus''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 阿爾宙斯 ''Ā Ěr Zhòu Sī'' - Transliteration of its Japanese name. 宙斯 also refers to {{wp|Zeus}}.

'''Gorebyss''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サクラビス''' ''Sakurabyss'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Clamperl}} via [[Trade#Pokémon which evolve when traded|trade]] with a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|DeepSeaScale}}. It is one of {{p|Clamperl|Clamperl's}} two final forms.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Gorebyss resembles a pink eel-like creature with a long thin mouth, and two shell-like structures on its chest which makes it resemble a mermaid. Gorebyss also has a purple-tipped antenna-like fin on top of its head, a similar, if shorter fin below its mouth, and two small eyelashes on each eye. Gorebyss's tail has two bands of lighter coloration, and at the tip of it is a rounded purple fin. Gorebyss's shape suggests that it was modeled after a {{wp|Pipefish}} or {{wp|Snipe eel}}.

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

====Special abilities====
Its body is extremely durable, so as to withstand the extreme hydrostatic pressures exercised to it at such a depth, which explains its high {{stat|Defense}} stat.

It also uses its thin mouth to pick food from small openings. Its mouth can also serve as a strong spear-like weapon when it's hunting down prey. Gorebyss's light pink body color becomes more vivid after feeding on prey, and also becomes more vivid with the rise of water temperatures in the springtime.

===Behavior===
Despite its elegant and beautiful appearance, Gorebyss can seem very cruel when it comes to hunting and battle, not hesitating to use its sharp, thin mouth to stab its prey into submission.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon}}]]
Gorebyss lives deep under the seas, and it can withstand the immense pressure that can be found at such extreme depths.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Gorebyss is an omnivore, and its basic diet consists of seaweed found in between rocks. It also uses its needle-like mouth to stab its prey, and then it proceeds to suck out its internal fluids.

==In the anime==
Gorebyss first appeared alongside {{p|Huntail}} in ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War]]'', where residents of [[A-B-C Islands|a trio of islands]] cannot agree on which of Clamperl's two evolutions are better.

A Gorebyss appeared in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex

==Trivia==
* Gorebyss's Pokédex entry in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} states that it is a carnivorous hunter; however, its {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} entry also states that it is herbivorous.
** It is possible, however, that Gorebyss is an omnivore, for neither entry states it eats only plants/meat.
* Gorebyss is stated to suck the fluids out of its victim. However, it's unable to learn any HP-draining moves such as {{m|Leech Life}} or {{m|Giga Drain}}.
* Despite being a pure {{type2|Water}} Pokémon, it bears a {{type2|Psychic}} Poké Assist in Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia.
*Gorebyss has the second highest Special Attack of all non legendary Water-types, being just one point below Omastar's.
**Therefore, Gorebyss has the highest Special Attack of all the pure, non-legendary Water-types.

===Origin===
Gorebyss may have been based on {{wp|snipe eel}}. It also resembles a {{wp|pipefish}} as well as an {{wp|oarfish}}, or a {{wp|chimaera (genus)}}. It may also be based from the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goblin_shark goblin shark]

====Name origin====
Gorebyss's name is a combination of ''gore'', to stab, and ''abyss''; ''byss'' could also be referring to the byssal threads {{wp|mussel}}s use to attach themselves to rocks. Its name could also possibly be a play on ''gorgeous''. Gorebyss's descriptions seem to confirm this view.

Its Japanese name is derived from the Japanese 桜 ''{{wp|sakura}}'', cherry blossom, possibly referring to its pink color, and the aforementioned ''byss''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Saganabyss
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Rosabyss - From ''abyss'' and ''rose'', either as a reference to {{wp|Rose|the flower}} or {{wp|Rose (color)|the color}}.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 분홍장이 ''Bunhongjang'i''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 櫻花魚 ''Yīng Huā Yú'' - Literally "Cherry blossom fish".

'''Pupitar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サナギラス''' ''Sanagiras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Larvitar}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Tyranitar}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pupitar are somewhat large Pokémon that are encased inside a thick shell made of grayish-blue rock. They have several spikes and holes for eyes and what appears to be eyebrows, but are actually triangular openings. They appear much like other pupa Pokémon like {{p|Metapod}} and {{p|Kakuna}}, but are far from helpless, as they possess enough power to topple mountains. Since its arms and legs are developing inside the shell, Pupitar are capable of venting gas to propel themselves around.

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

===Special abilities===
It is one of the few Pokémon not at its last stage of [[evolution]] to be able to wield a {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Pupitar is also capable of propelling itself through the air by venting pressurized gas.

===Behavior===

Pupitar creates a gas inside its body that it compresses and forcefully ejects to propel itself like a jet or rocket.

===Habitat===

'''Pupitar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サナギラス''' ''Sanagiras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Larvitar}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Tyranitar}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pupitar are somewhat large Pokémon that are encased inside a thick shell made of grayish-blue rock. They have several spikes and holes for eyes and what appears to be eyebrows, but are actually triangular openings. They appear much like other pupa Pokémon like {{p|Metapod}} and {{p|Kakuna}}, but are far from helpless, as they possess enough power to topple mountains. Since its arms and legs are developing inside the shell, Pupitar are capable of venting gas to propel themselves around.

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

===Special abilities===
It is one of the few Pokémon not at its last stage of [[evolution]] to be able to wield a {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Pupitar is also capable of propelling itself through the air by venting pressurized gas.

===Behavior===

Pupitar creates a gas inside its body that it compresses and forcefully ejects to propel itself like a jet or rocket.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Despite being encased in a hard shell, Pupitar live and move freely around harsh mountain ranges.

===Diet===

'''Bugsy''' (Japanese: '''ツクシ''' ''Tsukushi'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Azalea Town]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Azalea Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Hive}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Bug}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the games==
[[Image:Gold Silver Bugsy.png|140px|thumb|left|Headshot of Bugsy from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}]]
Bugsy appears in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} as the Gym Leader of the [[Azalea Gym]]. He is the second Gym Leader to be challenged in each of the games, although he cannot be fought until [[Team Rocket]] has been driven out of the [[Slowpoke Well]].

Because of his research on {{t|Bug}} Pokémon, Bugsy's knowledge makes him an authority on them. He even discovered the move {{m|Fury Cutter}}, which is the signature move on his {{p|Scyther}}. This research has led to his given title, "The Walking Bug Pokémon Encyclopedia". He claims to never lose when it comes to Bug Pokémon, but—once defeated by the player—will admit his research isn't yet finished. Upon defeat he will hand out the {{badge|Hive}}, and a {{type2|Bug}} Technical Machine: {{tm|49|Fury Cutter}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and {{tm|89|U-turn}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.

Like all other Johto and Kanto Gym Leaders, Bugsy will leave his Gym from time to time. Every Thursday, Bugsy travels to [[Viridian Forest]] where he will hand out his [[Pokégear]] phone number to fellow travelers all day. From here he will progress to the [[Fighting Dojo]] and, on Thursday afternoons, accept a rematch with a stronger team. On Fridays at the National Park he'll offer to take a picture with the player and their first Pokémon.

Bugsy also has a room in the Johto [[Gym Leader Castle]] in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]. This is the only time he will use Pokémon not of the Bug-type.

==In the anime==
[[File:Bugsy anime.png|right|200px|thumb|Bugsy in the anime]]
Bugsy's only anime appearance was in the episode ''[[EP144|Gettin' the Bugs Out]]''.

Bugsy trains in a large, greenhouse-like Gym filled with trees and bugs. He has an affinity for Bug-type Pokémon.

His {{p|Scyther}} can use {{m|Swords Dance}} to deflect {{type2|Fire}} attacks. However, {{Ash}} figured out it was vulnerable from above, and {{AP|Cyndaquil}} was able to knock it out, winning Ash the Hive Badge.

|desc={{p|Spinarak}} is the first Pokémon Bugsy used in his match against {{Ash}}, saying that it's one of his strongest Pokémon in his arsenal. It battled against {{AP|Cyndaquil}} and almost won with its {{m|String Shot}} and {{m|Poison Sting}} attacks, since Cyndaquil couldn't get its flame started. Eventually, Ash recalled Cyndaquil and sent out {{AP|Chikorita|Bayleef}} instead, despite the type disadvantage. Spinarak and Chikorita kept dodging each other's attacks, until Ash told Chikorita to use {{m|Sweet Scent}}, enabling it to {{m|Tackle}} Spinarak and win the round.}}

|desc=Bugsy's second choice for his battle with Ash was {{p|Metapod}}. Metapod used {{m|Harden}} several times to resist Chikorita's attacks, and then surprised Ash by being able to jump and {{m|Tackle}} Chikorita. Ash decided to use {{AP|Pikachu}}, and after dodging many more attacks, Pikachu managed to attack Metapod with {{m|Thunderbolt}} and win.}}

Scyther proved to be an exceptional fighter as it can hold its own against {{type2|Fire}}s by using {{m|Swords Dance}} to counter fire attacks. Using this technique, it almost defeated [[Ash's Cyndaquil]] by deflecting all of its fire attacks. Thanks to Ash's strategy, Cyndaquil gained the upper hand. Instead of attacking horizontally, it jumped above Scyther and used {{m|Flamethrower}}. Scyther was unable to defend itself from the attack and it was knocked out of the battle.}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Bugsy Special.png|thumb|Bugsy in Pokémon Adventures]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Bugsy is a ruins explorer. He meets {{adv|Gold}} at the [[Ruins of Alph]], who at first mistakes the Gym Leader for a girl and asks him out on a date. When he reveals he is a boy he tells Gold that he is looking for his missing companions who were helping him study the ruins. The two of them then run into Team Rocket and accidentally awaken the Unown. After being cornered by a Spinarak's Spider Web Explotaro used Smokescreen to get the Unown in the web and take out their anger on Team Rocket. Bugsy then left the cave with his companions, ecstatic about his new discovery.

Bugsy is then see with more research colleagues before Suicune appears to him. He fails to catch Suicune just like the rest and it becomes the first Pokémon to break through his capture net. He does discover several inscriptions written in Unown, one saying "Rope Escape" and another saying "Ho-Oh".

Bugsy uses a special multi-[[Poké Ball]] capture net made for him by [[Kurt]].

==Trivia==
* Bugsy is the only Gym Leader to use any Pokémon in battle that cannot learn any TMs or HMs.

* Bugsy's Metapod is the only Metapod to be shown using {{m|Tackle}} (or indeed, any move other than {{m|Harden}}) in the games or the anime.
* Similarly to [[Saturn]] and [[Will]], his Pokémon are the opposite gender of himself despite having a 50-50 gender ratio.
** Bugsy's Pokémon were all male in the [[Generation II|original Johto games]].
* Bugsy is the only Johto gym leader that does not have an elemental type advantage on the next Gym Leader. (Falkner trains {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon, which are strong against Bug-type Pokémon. Meanwhile, [[Whitney]]'s {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon are immune to {{type2|Ghost}} moves of [[Morty]], and so on.)
* Bugsy is the only Gym Leader whose {{p|Scyther|signature Pokémon}} is sent out on the first turn (though this is only in Generation IV), but this due to the fact that his Scyther now carries {{m|U-turn}}.
* Bugsy appears as an opponent in [[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]. He uses a {{p|Kakuna}} to battle.
* Bugsy is the only Gym Leader that specializes in the {{type|Bug}}.
* Bugsy is the only Gym Leader that can be called on Thursdays for a rematch in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
*In gold, silver and crystal, Bugsy's hair sprite looks just like the trees in a pot inside his gym, in a different color.

'''Eevee''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イーブイ''' ''Eivui'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into one of [[Eeveelution|seven different Pokémon]] by various methods.
*{{p|Vaporeon}} when exposed to a {{stone|Water Stone}} ([[Generation I]] onward)
*{{p|Jolteon}} when exposed to a {{stone|Thunderstone}} (Generation I onward)
*{{p|Flareon}} when exposed to a {{stone|Fire Stone}} (Generation I onward)
*{{p|Espeon}} via [[happiness]] during the [[day]]time ([[Generation II]] onward)
*{{p|Umbreon}} via happiness during the [[night]]time (Generation II onward)
*{{p|Leafeon}} when [[level]]ed up in [[Eterna Forest]] ([[Generation IV]] onward)
*{{p|Glaceon}} when [[level]]ed up on {{rt|217}} (Generation IV onward)

It is the [[starter Pokémon]] for the main character of [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. It is also the starter Pokémon for the rival in {{game|Yellow}}, although {{prof|Oak}} originally intended to give it to the {{player}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Eevee is a mammalian creature with brown fur, a bushy tail that has a cream-colored tip, and a furry collar that is also cream-colored. Eevee has brown eyes and big ears. It has traits of {{wp|raccoon}}s, {{wp|fox}}es, {{wp|dog}}s, and {{wp|cat}}s. Eevee has an irregular genetic code and can sometimes evolve in accordance to its environment. Seven evolutions for this Pokémon have been discovered so far. Three of these evolutions can also be the result of Eevee being exposed to either a Fire Stone, Thunderstone or Water Stone.

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

===Special abilities===
Most of Eevee's offensive moves are Normal-type attacks; such as {{m|Tackle}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}, but it can also {{m|Bite}} its opponents and use {{m|Shadow Ball}}, however, it's unique in that it is unable to learn most other elemental attacks that other normal-types can utilize, at least not in its current state. Eevee can also learn supportive moves such as {{m|Helping Hand}} and {{m|Wish}}. Eevee is one of the four Pokémon that learn {{m|Trump Card}}. Some Eevee have the ability {{a|Adaptability}}, which makes any Normal-type attack that they use become stronger than when used by any other Normal-type Pokémon whose attack power is the same as Eevee's. Eevee is said to have an irregularly shaped genetic structure, enabling it to evolve into multiple Pokémon. This code may also shed some light on its ability, Adaptability.

===Behavior===
Eevee's behavior can be affected by its surroundings. Eventually, with enough alteration, the Eevee may evolve to better suit its surroundings. According to [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]], Eevee has the personality type Naive, meaning childlike, playful and friendly. In the anime, Eevee don't appear to have any characteristic quirks but are usually affectionate, loyal and fairly energetic Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Urban Pokémon|Urban Pokémon]]]]
Eevee are quite rare in the wild. They sometimes live near cities and towns. It is possible for Eevee to live almost anywhere, and they may evolve to suit their surroundings.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:May's Eevee.png|right|thumb|{{TP|May|Eevee|Glaceon}} in the anime]]
Eevee first appeared in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]''. A little boy named Mikey was hiding the Evolution Pokémon from his three older [[Eevee brothers|brothers]] because they wanted him to evolve it. However, when Mikey's Eevee single-handedly defeated [[Team Rocket]], Sparky, Rainer, and Pyro were able to accept the fact that Mikey wanted to keep his Eevee just the way it is.

[[Gary's Eevee]] debuted in ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]'', defeating [[Ash's Pikachu]]. It evolved into an {{p|Umbreon}} some time before ''[[EP171|Power Play]]''.

[[Sakura]] had an {{TP|Sakura|Eevee}} in ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]''. By the time {{Ash}} and co. met up with Sakura again in ''[[EP226|Espeon Not Included]]'', her Eevee had evolved into an {{p|Espeon}}.

[[Ritchie]] consulted [[Professor Oak]] on advice on what Eevee evolution is best for his Eevee. However this was only mentioned in the dub and it is unknown whether he owns a Eevee in the first place.

An Eevee was used by one of the students of the {{g|Trainer's School}} in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

{{an|May}} received an {{pkmn|egg}} from a Daycare Worker in ''[[AG150|May's Egg-Cellent Adventure]]''. The egg hatched into an {{TP|May|Eevee}} in ''[[AG157|Time-Warp Heals All Wounds]]'', and evolved into {{p|Glaceon}} before May met back up with the group in ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]''.

==In the manga==
Eevee is seen in [[Pokémon Special]] as a Pokémon experimented on by [[Team Rocket]], in their tests to attempt merging {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Moltres}} into [[Zapmolcuno|a single Pokémon]]. The experiments gave Eevee the characteristic of being able to mutate into three of its evolved forms, namely {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}} and {{p|Flareon}}, though not at will. {{Special|Red}} eventually captures this Eevee. When it evolves into {{p|Espeon}}, however, it loses its mutation ability.

Another Eevee was seen under the ownership of [[Karen]], during her childhood as one of the children captured by [[Pryce]]. It is presumed that this Eevee eventually evolves into her {{p|Umbreon}}.

Like in the {{pkmn|anime}}, Eevee is featured in [[Electric Tale of Pikachu|The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] under the ownership of [[Eevee brothers#In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga|Mikey]].

Eevee is owned by [[Coconut]] in [[Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure]].

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

As in the games and anime, Eevee is notable in the TCG for being able to evolve into the most differently-named Pokémon cards, with its seven normal evolutions, as well as {{TCG|Dark Pokémon|Dark forms}} of the Generation I evolutions and Espeon, and {{TCG|Light Pokémon|Light forms}} of the Generation I evolutions.

==In the TFG==
One Eevee figure has been released.

*{{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Eevee|10}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Eevee only appears as a random trophy.

====Trophy information====
As adaptable a Pokémon as any yet discovered, Eevee's evolutionary progress changes to meet the conditions of its environment. So far, five evolutionary forms have been discovered and then catalogued for this unique Pokémon; Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, and Umbreon. All evolutions have special benefits.

==Trivia==
*Fans have come up with a term to refer to all Pokémon which evolve from Eevee: [[Eeveelution]]s.
*In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, all of Eevee's evolutions up to the third generation can be "captured". However, Eevee cannot even be found at all. This was eventually changed in the [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia|sequel]].
*Eevee's name is a {{wp|palindrome}}, as is {{p|Girafarig}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
*Eevee's [[Generation I]] evolutions, {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}}, and {{p|Flareon}} can be obtained at level 1 since an [[evolutionary stone]] is required for each, and its [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] evolutions can be obtained at level 2, because they require leveling up while a certain condition is met.
*Eevee and its [[Evolution|evolutions]] all have a [[catch rate]] of 45.
*Eevee and {{p|Tyrogue}} are the only Pokémon that can [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|evolve into more than two Pokémon]], if {{p|Wormadam}}'s alternate formes are not counted as separate Pokémon.
*Whenever an Eevee is shown to belong to a main or recurring character (as has happened with [[Gary Oak]], [[Sakura]], and {{an|May}}), that character's Eevee is later shown to have evolved, but so far, the evolution of an Eevee has never actually been seen on-screen. [[Mikey]]'s Eevee is the only Eevee shown yet in the anime that was never revealed to evolve; he vowed ''not'' to evolve it, in fact.
*During Generation I, Eevee was the only Pokémon that could evolve into more than one species. With the release of several Pokémon in Generation II and on, however, its only distinction now is its ability to evolve into as many species as it is able: currently seven.
*Eevee is one of two Pokémon that evolve with the Thunderstone. The other is {{p|Pikachu}}.
*{{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} are the only main series games where Eevee are found in the wild. Interestingly, when it is caught, it knows four [[status move]]s.
*All of the Eevee's [[Eeveelution|evolutions]] so far have had their elemental type be one whose moves were formerly governed solely by the {{stat|Special Attack}} stat. The only formerly all-special elemental type not covered is {{t|Dragon}}.
*{{m|Bite}} is the only move learned by Eevee that gets a [[same-type attack bonus]] for one of its evolved forms.
**Abnormally for a Normal-type Pokémon, it can learn only four moves that are not themselves Normal-type: {{m|Mud-Slap}} ({{t|Ground}}), {{m|Bite}} ({{t|Dark}}), {{m|Iron Tail}} ({{t|Steel}}) and {{m|Shadow Ball}} ({{t|Ghost}}). This is likely so as to limit the movepools of its evolutions to moves of their own types.
*Eevee is the only Pokémon to have so much evolutions yet presently counting seven.

===Origin===
It has traits of {{wp|fox}}es and {{wp|cat}}s. It is possibly based on the folklore of {{wp|Tanuki}}, who is said to be able to transform and is the alternative name for the {{wp|Japanese racoon dog}}. It may also be based on the concept of dog breeding and the multitude of variations that arose from it.
====Name origin====
Eevee's name is a pronunciation of ''E-V'', the first two letters in the word [[evolution]].

Eevee was originally going to be called "Eon," the suffix of all the evolutions of Eevee, which probably is a shortening of "evolution". Eon also means a long time, which is how long it takes for {{wp|evolution}} to take place in the real world.

Walkthrough:Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire/Part 1

2009-03-26T22:49:06Z

Ericklebleu: /* Badge 1: Littleroot Town to Rustboro City */

{{incomplete}}

== Badge 1: [[Littleroot Town]] to [[Rustboro City]] ==
=== [[Littleroot Town]] ===
The game begins in a pickup truck parked in Littleroot Town. The player's family has just moved here from [[Johto]]. After exiting the truck, the player will head into their house. Here, they can set their clock and listen to their [[mom]]. Once completed, the player will then head to their neighbor's house. After learning that their neighbor, who is either [[Brendan]] or {{ga|May}} depending on the player's gender, is not home, they should head north to {{rt|101}} and rescue [[Professor Birch]].

=== [[Route 101]] ===
[[image:Ruby-sapphire-starters.png|thumb|right|The player must choose their [[starter Pokémon|starter]] wisely.]]
After stumbling across Professor Birch being attacked by a group of {{p|Poochyena}}, he will tell the player to select one of the [[Pokémon]] in the bag. The options are {{p|Treecko}}, the {{type2|Grass}}, {{p|Torchic}}, the {{type2|Fire}}, or {{p|Mudkip}}, the {{type2|Water}}. The player must choose carefully, as this Pokémon will be their starter. Once the Pokémon is selected, a battle between the starter and a Poochyena will commence. After its defeat, Birch will take the player to his lab and tell them to go to {{rt|103}} to meet their rival. If the player is male, the rival will be {{ga|May}}. If the player is female, the rival will be {{ga|Brendan}}. After doing this, the player should head home to access their PC and withdraw a [[Potion]]. Upon completion, the player will head north towards [[Oldale Town]], the first town with a {{g|Center}}.

=== [[Oldale Town]] to {{rt|103}} ===
Upon reaching Oldale Town, the player will continue north to {{rt|103}}. Along the way, the player will meet a [[Poké Mart]] salesman. After speaking with him, the player will receive a free Potion. Once this is done, the player should continue north, where they will have their first battle with their rival.

==== Rival battle ====
[[image:Rs-rival-1.png|thumb|left|The first rival battle]]
At this point, the rival will only have one Pokémon. What it is depends on which Pokémon the player chose at the beginning of the game. The rival character will have chosen the Pokémon with a type advantage over the player. Upon the defeat of the rival, they will head back to Littleroot Town.

=== {{rt|102}} to [[Littleroot Town]] and back ===
After following the rival back to Littleroot Town, the Professor will give the player five [[Poké Ball]]s. Before leaving town, the player's mom will appear to give her child a pair of [[Running Shoes]]. Once this is completed, the player may now head back up to Oldale Town. Once they arrive, they may now buy items at the Pokémart. Then, the player should head west, leaving Oldale via Route 102.

=== {{rt|102}} ===
There are several {{g|Trainer}}s along Route 102. The player should battle them in order to earn experience and money. Also along Route 102 are items and berries.

Continuing west, the player will eventually arrive at [[Petalburg City]]. After heading to the gym, the player will learn that their [[Norman|father]] will not accept their challenge until they have earned four badges. Instead, he recommends his child go and assist [[Wally]], who will become another rival of the player, to capture a {{p|Ralts}}.

Once done with Wally, the player may now exit Petalburg City to the west by heading out on {{rt|104}}.

Ericklebleu: /* Littleroot Town */

{{incomplete}}

== Badge 1: [[Littleroot Town]] to [[Rustboro City]] ==
=== [[Littleroot Town]] ===
The game begins in a pickup truck parked in Littleroot Town. The player's family has just moved here from [[Johto]]. After exiting the truck, the player will head into their house. Here, they can set their clock and listen to their [[mom]]. Once completed, the player will then head to their neighbor's house. After learning their neighbor, who is either [[Brendan]] or [[May]] depending on the player's gender, is not home, they should head north to {{rt|101}} and rescue [[Professor Birch]].

=== [[Route 101]] ===
[[image:Ruby-sapphire-starters.png|thumb|right|The player must choose their [[starter Pokémon|starter]] wisely.]]
After stumbling across Professor Birch being attacked by a group of {{p|Poochyena}}, he will tell the player to select one of the [[Pokémon]] in the bag. The options are {{p|Treecko}}, the {{type2|Grass}}, {{p|Torchic}}, the {{type2|Fire}}, or {{p|Mudkip}}, the {{type2|Water}}. The player must choose carefully, as this Pokémon will be their starter. Once the Pokémon is selected, a battle between the starter and a Poochyena will commence. After its defeat, Birch will take the player to his lab and tell them to go to {{rt|103}} to meet their rival. If the player is male, the rival will be {{ga|May}}. If the player is female, the rival will be {{ga|Brendan}}. After doing this, the player should head home to access their PC and withdraw a [[Potion]]. Upon completion, the player will head north towards [[Oldale Town]], the first town with a {{g|Center}}.

=== [[Oldale Town]] to {{rt|103}} ===
Upon reaching Oldale Town, the player will continue north to {{rt|103}}. Along the way, the player will meet a [[Poké Mart]] salesman. After speaking with him, the player will receive a free Potion. Once this is done, the player should continue north, where they will have their first battle with their rival.

==== Rival battle ====
[[image:Rs-rival-1.png|thumb|left|The first rival battle]]
At this point, the rival will only have one Pokémon. What it is depends on which Pokémon the player chose at the beginning of the game. The rival character will have chosen the Pokémon with a type advantage over the player. Upon the defeat of the rival, they will head back to Littleroot Town.

=== {{rt|102}} to [[Littleroot Town]] and back ===
After following the rival back to Littleroot Town, the Professor will give the player five [[Poké Ball]]s. Before leaving town, the player's mom will appear to give her child a pair of [[Running Shoes]]. Once this is completed, the player may now head back up to Oldale Town. Once they arrive, they may now buy items at the Pokémart. Then, the player should head west, leaving Oldale via Route 102.

=== {{rt|102}} ===
There are several {{g|Trainer}}s along Route 102. The player should battle them in order to earn experience and money. Also along Route 102 are items and berries.

Continuing west, the player will eventually arrive at [[Petalburg City]]. After heading to the gym, the player will learn that their [[Norman|father]] will not accept their challenge until they have earned four badges. Instead, he recommends his child go and assist [[Wally]], who will become another rival of the player, to capture a {{p|Ralts}}.

Once done with Wally, the player may now exit Petalburg City to the west by heading out on {{rt|104}}.

'''Wobbuffet''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ソーナンス''' ''Sonans'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Wynaut}} starting at [[level]] 15.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Wobbuffet is a tall, cyan-colored blob-like creature with a black tail that has two eye-spots on it. Wobbuffet has flipper-like arms and a crooked expression on its face as a opposed to the perpetual smile that {{p2|Wynaut|its un-evolved form}} has. It also walks on four legs at its base.
====Gender differences====
Female Wobbuffet appear to be wearing lipstick.

====Special abilities====
Wobbuffet is only capable of {{m|counter}}ing enemy attacks. However, it is highly effective at doing this due to its high endurance. It also has the curious ability to {{a2|Shadow Tag|keep its opponent from retreating}}.

===Behavior===
When two Wobbuffet meet, they usually try to test each others' endurance. Even though Wobbuffet are classified as "Patient" Pokémon, a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who has it often finds that his or her Wobbuffet tends to pop out of its [[Poké Ball]] by itself, shouting out in agreement of something someone said.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Cave Pokémon|Cave Pokémon]]]]
Wobbuffet live in dark caves to keep their tail hidden.

===Diet===
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Musashitosonans.jpg|right|thumb|Jessie and Wobbuffet]]
[[Jessie]] has a {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} that frequently emerges from its [[Poké Ball]] to shout its name or cause what Jessie considers to be trouble. It has appeared in almost every episode since she accidentally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for it in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''. However, she rarely uses Wobbuffet in battle.

''[[EP173|Wobbu-palooza]]'' featured a town in which everyone owned a Wobbuffet.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Special===
Wobbuffet first appeared in {{PSV|11}} under the ownership of {{Special|Crystal}}'s mother.

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

==Other appearances==
[[Image:Wobbuffet Brawl.jpg|thumb|right|Wobbuffet in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Wobbuffet will stand on the stage in one place. Anyone attacking or running into it will be damaged by its {{m|Counter}}, apart from the player who threw the Poké Ball, who will only be knocked back.

Wobbuffet is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]] in Melee. It appears on its side and never fully reveals itself. When it first appears, it will quickly return off-screen but will then come back and remain to allow for fighting to take place on top of it.

====Melee trophy information====
A Patient Pokémon, Wobbuffet lives in darkness to hide its mismatched black tail. Even for a stoic Pokémon, this creature is a testament to self-control; it will not actively attack an opponent. Its {{M|Counter}} and {{M|Mirror Coat}} moves are solely used for reflecting attacks directly back at its antagonist.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]: Wobbuffet and {{p|Wynaut}} send the player on a mission into the [[Uproar Forest]]. As thanks for completing it, they help to remodel the rescue base. Notably, the Wobbuffet is the only Pokémon in the entire game that doesn't speak human language.

==Trivia==
*Its name, when paired with the Japanese name of its pre-evolution, {{p|Wynaut}}, ソーナノ ''Sohnano'', makes for a potential perpetual conversation of "that's the way it is" followed by "really?", and so on, as seen in [[Camp Pikachu]].
*Wobbuffet has the third highest base {{stat|HP}} stat in the game, after {{p|Blissey}} and {{p|Chansey}}.
**It also has the highest base HP of all {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon, the only stat among this type that is ''not'' dominated by any form of {{p|Deoxys}}.
*Wobbuffet is one of fourteen Pokémon that one could collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
*It is one of five evolution families to learn both {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}. The others are {{p|Deoxys}} in Defense Forme (via [[level|leveling up]]), {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Mudkip}} (both via {{pkmn|breeding}}), and {{p|Squirtle}} (via breeding and [[move tutor|move tutoring]] in {{game|Emerald}}).
* Prior to Gen IV, Wobbuffet's biggest weaknesses were Dark and Ghost type Pokémon. As a Psychic type move, Mirror Coat had no effect on Dark types using Dark type moves, and as a Fighting type move, Counter had no effect on Ghost types using Ghost type moves. This was the only benefit of the classification of the two types, as it was contrary to the types' average stats.

==Origin==
It may be based on the late Japanese comedian 林家三平 ''{{wp|Sanpei Hayashiya}}'', who was famous for repeatedly touching his hand to his forehead while saying one of his trademark lines, そうなんす、奥さん ''sō na-n-su, okusan'', "That's the way it is, ma'am."
An other fact that supports this theory is that [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]] performed stand up comedy along with [[Brock's Ludicolo]] (Lombre in the event) in [[AG105]]

In addition, its form and available moves may be based on a {{wp|punching bag}}; that is, when it is hit, it bounces back.
===Name origin===
Wobbuffet's name is a combination of ''wobble'' and ''buffet'', meaning to strike repeatedly, possibly referring to its action of slapping its own forehead. Its Japanese name is homophonous with the interjection そうなんす ''sō na-n-su'', which roughly means "that's the way it is."

==In other languages==

'''Ash's Kingler''' (Japanese: '''サトシのキングラー''' ''Satoshi's Kingler'') was the seventh [[Pokémon]] acquired by [[Ash Ketchum]] in the [[Kanto]] region, and the first of Ash's Pokémon to primarily reside at [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory in [[Pallet Town]]. Its voice actor in both Japanese and English is ''[[Unshō Ishizuka]]''. As a Krabby, ''[[Rikako Aikawa]]'' voiced it in both languages.

==History==
[[Image:Ash_krabby.png|left|thumb|205px|As a Krabby]]
Ash originally obtained it as a {{p|Krabby}} in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', where he caught it to prove to [[Misty]] that it was not a fluke that he captured all his other Pokémon. Having six Pokémon already in his party at the time, the newly caught Krabby's [[Poké Ball]] was teleported away, much to Ash's surprise and concern. He soon learned that Krabby was sent to Professor Oak.

Krabby's battling debut came in ''[[EP075|Round One - Begin!]]'', when Ash used it during the first round of the {{g|League}} against [[Mandi]]. Krabby was able to defeat Mandi's {{p|Exeggutor}} and it then evolved into a {{p|Kingler}}. It was able to finish the rest of the match by defeating Mandi's two remaining Pokémon, {{p|Seadra}} and {{p|Golbat}}.

Kingler spent most of the time at Oak's lab as Ash and his {{ashfr|friends}} traveled the [[Orange Islands]] and the [[Johto]] region. Ash used it in Johto during the [[Whirl Cup]] tournament in ''[[EP217|The Perfect Match]]''. It was used in the match against [[Misty]] and her {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} and {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}.

Ash was planning to use Kingler in the Johto League [[Silver Conference]], but it was injured while rescuing a group of runaway {{p|Voltorb}} making it unable to participate in the rest of the tournament.

Kingler currently resides at [[Professor Oak]]'s Lab.

==Trivia==
* Kingler is the only {{type2|Water}} that Ash has owned that ever [[evolve]]d.
* Kingler is Ash's first crustacean-based Pokémon. The second is {{AP|Corphish}}.
* Kingler is the only one of Ash's Pokémon that evolved after its first battle. It is also Ash's only Pokémon to win in a [[Pokémon League]] match single handedly.
* Kingler is the first of Ashes Pokémon to be transfered directly into the PC storage system.

'''Spoink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バネブー''' ''Baneboo'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Grumpig}} starting at [[level]] 32.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Spoink is a Pokémon that leads an unusually fragile existence. It possess no hind legs and motion is achieved by bouncing on its spring like tail. However, the bouncing serves a far more vital function in that it keeps its heart beating; if it's stopped from bouncing, it'll go into cardiac arrest and die. It also wears a pearl produced by a{{p|Clamperl}} on top of its head to amplify its psychic powers. However, if it loses the pearl, it begins to weaken, so Spoink is in constant danger from either ceasing to bounce or losing its pearl.

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

====Special abilities====
The pearl on Spoink's head magnifies its psychic powers. It is able to constantly bounce, even while sleeping, which is imperative to its existence. This is due to the previously mentioned risk of cardiac arrest. Spoink was also one of the few Pokémon originally able to use the move {{m|Bounce}}, though this move now can be used by a decent quantity of Pokémon.

===Behavior===
Spoink are constantly on the search for a bigger pearl, which will most likely strengthen its psychic powers when it does so. Due to this factor, Spoink are known to steal round objects that it may confuse for a pearl. They seem to be kleptomaniac Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

They seem to love mushrooms that grow underground. How they manage to get at them while bouncing is unknown. However, they also seem to be sometimes found with the [[Tanga Berry]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Spoinkanime.jpg|right|thumb|[[Spoink (anime)|A Spoink]] without a pearl on its head.]]
{{an|Spoink}} first appeared in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. The Bounce Pokémon had lost its pearl and {{Ash}} and {{AP|friends}} had to help find the missing pearl. Spoink happened to be a kleptomaniac for anything round (especially round Pokémon) when it didn't have its pearl.

The same Spoink appeared again in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]'', where it loses its pearl once again. Ash and friends go searching for another pearl, but [[Team Rocket]] stole the only {{P|Clamperl}} that had one.

{{Ash}} used a Spoink in the land leg of the [[DP091]] Triathlon.

==In the manga==
[[Liza & Tate]] each own a Spoink.

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

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Spoink takes the role of the spring used to launch the [[Poké Ball]].

===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex

==Trivia==
*Despite saying that it would die if it stopped bouncing, it has been seen not bouncing many times in the anime.
*Spoink's pearl and cheeks are a darker pink in its D/P sprite, probably to match its official art.

===Origin===
It is possible the inspiration for Spoink came from the Biblical phrase {{wp|Pearls Before Swine|"do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet."}} The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who would not appreciate the teachings. Spoink and {{p|Grumpig}} appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their psychic powers. It is also possible that Spoink was a literal interpretation for a spring pig. It is obviously based off a {{wp|pig}}.

====Name origin====
Spoink's name is possibly a combination of ''{{wp|Spring (device)|spring}}'' and ''oink'', the sound a pig makes. ''Baneboo'' is probably derived from 発条 ''bane'', spring, and ぶうぶう ''būbū'', the sound of grumbling or oinking. The end of its name may also be a shortening of 豚 ''buta'', pig.

==Trivia==
*Despite saying that it would die if it stopped bouncing, it has been seen not bouncing many times in the anime.
*Spoink's pearl and cheeks are a darker pink in its D/P sprite, probably to match its official art.

===Origin===
It is possible the inspiration for Spoink came from the Biblical phrase {{wp|Pearls Before Swine|"do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet."}} The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who would not appreciate the teachings. Spoink and {{p|Grumpig}} appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their mental powers. It is also possible that Spoink was a literal interpretation for a spring pig. It is obviously based off a {{wp|pig}}.

====Name origin====
Spoink's name is possibly a combination of ''{{wp|Spring (device)|spring}}'' and ''oink'', the sound a pig makes. ''Baneboo'' is probably derived from 発条 ''bane'', spring, and ぶうぶう ''būbū'', the sound of grumbling or oinking. The end of its name may also be a shortening of 豚 ''buta'', pig.

'''Dawn's Mamoswine''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのマンムー''' ''Hikari's Mammoo'') was the fifth [[Pokémon]] captured by {{an|Dawn}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}, and her sixth Pokémon in all. Its Japanese voice actor is ''[[Unshō Ishizuka]]''. In Japanese, it was voiced by ''[[Inuko Inuyama]]'' as a {{p|Swinub}} and {{p|Piloswine}}. In English, it was voiced by [[Kayzie Rogers]] as a Swinub.

==History==
[[Image:Dawn&Swinub.jpg|With Dawn, as a Swinub|thumb|left]]
[[Image:Piloswine.png|As a Piloswine|thumb|left]]

Mamoswine's debut was in ''[[DP084|Hungry for the Good Life!]]'' as a Swinub. It appeared at [[Mr. Backlot]]'s mansion from a nearby forest. It caused trouble by devouring all of Dawn's [[Poffin]]s, much to the displeasure of Dawn's other {{DL|Dawn (anime)|Pokémon}}. This revealed its gluttonous nature. However, after helping take down [[Team Rocket]] and rescue the other Pokémon, Dawn decided she wanted Swinub to go with her.

In [[DP095]], Swinub watched its first {{pkmn|Contest}} when it saw Dawn, {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} work together to win the [[Celestic Town]] {{g|Contest}}.

While still a Swinub, it was not used very much due to it's relative lack of battling experience. It had a very cheerful personality and would often jump up and down in excitement.

Swinub evolved into Piloswine in [[DP104]] in a {{pkmn|battle}} against Team Rocket. After evolving, its personality drastically changed. Piloswine was still very affectionate towards Dawn, as seen in [[DP105]] where it tackled her to the ground out of affection.

In [[DP106]], just two episodes after evolving, Piloswine started to disobey Dawn. Knowing numerous powerful attacks, Piloswine felt much stronger and more confident than it did as a Swinub. It then attacked {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} for touching its fur presumptuously. It started to develop an indifference towards Dawn and rushed towards her only after she threw its favorite food, [[Poffin]]s, around, forcing it to run around to eat the Poffins. It even tried to attack Dawn with {{m|Ice Shard}}. It used Ice Shard and froze half the body of {{AP|Grotle}}, who tried to stop it from rampaging. Immediately after that, it rushed all the way towards Dawn and the others, nearly crushing everyone, only to be stopped by the muscular {{TP|Brock|Happiny}}. Dawn agreed to have a battle with her Piloswine and [[Ash's Grotle]]. However, it ignored Dawn's commands and used {{m|AncientPower}} instead.

It later evolved again into {{p|Mamoswine}} after being attacked by Team Rocket. Unfortunately, it has kept its bad behavior from when it was a Piloswine, and even charged at the gang in a rage, only to be stopped by Brock, who told Dawn to return it to its [[Poké Ball]]. Despite this, Dawn is still eager to train Mamoswine well.

In battle, {{P|Mamoswine}} has shown to be incredibly powerful thanks to its large and powerful physique. It was shown to take {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}'s {{m|BubbleBeam}}, {{m|Whirlpool}} ''and'' {{m|Peck}} in quick succession with no resistance at all as well as knocking it out for the third time in [[DP106]].

==Moves used==
* {{m|Take Down}}
* {{m|Ice Shard}}
* {{m|Dig}}
* {{m|AncientPower}}

==Trivia==
* {{P|Mamoswine}}, alongside [[Ash's Gliscor]], is the only Pokémon in the parties of {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} to be absent from the original [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Dex number|Sinnoh Dex]] (though [[Jessie]] of [[Team Rocket]] has {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}, and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, and [[Paul]] owns {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}}, {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}, and {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}}).
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, is the first capture Dawn has made since {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}, exactly [[DP034|50 episodes before]]. It is also her only capture in which she didn't {{pkmn|battle}} the Pokémon twice, or even at all.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, is the fifth, and most recent, Pokémon introduced in [[Generation II]] that is in the party of a member of the main cast during the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, is also the second Pokémon that Dawn owns that was introduced in a generation other than the one she was introduced in, the first being Aipom. Like Aipom, Piloswine has a Generation IV evolved form.
* Mamoswine is the fourth Pokémon in the [[Pokémon anime]] to evolve by knowing a certain move, following Brock's {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}, Dawn's {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} and Jessie's {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, and is the second Pokémon of Dawn's to evolve by this method.
** Mamoswine is also the second Pokémon to evolve by learning the move {{m|AncientPower}}, the first being Jessie's Yanmega, which also evolved rather quickly after being captured.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, has some similarities with [[May's Munchlax]]: Mamoswine loves to eat mass quantities of [[Poffin]]; likewise, May's Munchlax enjoys mass quantities of [[Pokéblock]] (the [[Generation III]] counterpart of the Poffin).
* So far, Mamoswine is Dawn's only {{cat|dual-type Pokémon}}.
* Mamoswine is Dawn's second evolved Pokémon, the first being {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}}. Both are final forms of a [[Generation II]] evolution family. Coincidentally, both need to know a specific move to evolve.
* [[DP104]], the episode in which {{p|Swinub}} evolves into {{p|Piloswine}}, first aired in Japan in the same week that ''[[DP084|Hungry For the Good Life!]]'', the episode in which Swinub is captured, first aired in the United States. The same thing happened to [[Ash's Gliscor]].
* Mamoswine is the first Pokémon in the current saga to appear evolved in an opening prior to its actual evolution being shown. Furthermore, it was as a {{p|Mamoswine}}.
** It was changed back to a Piloswine in the opening of [[DP106]], despite it evolving in that episode. The inclusion as a Mamoswine in [[DP104]]'s opening may have been an error.
* Mamoswine is similar to [[Ash's Charizard]] in many aspects.
** Both were caught in their base forms.
** Both are the fifth Pokémon captured by their [[Pokémon Trainer|trainers]] (Mamoswine is the sixth Dawn actually obtained, but {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was obtained in a trade, and not truly captured).
** Both of them disobeyed their trainers when they evolved, but were both quite loyal to their trainers in their base forms.
** Both evolved to their final forms within a short span of episodes and retained their disobedience.
** Both were the second Pokémon on their respective teams to evolve to their final forms (the first being {{TP|Ash|Butterfree}} for Ash and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} for Dawn).
** Both were caught in their base forms without having to be fought.
* Like many other main characters' Pokémon, Mamoswine was obtained after the Pokémon's species' debut in a [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|movie]].
*Mamoswine is the first of a main character's Pokémon to have evolved three times.

In battle, {{P|Mamoswine}} has shown to be incredibly powerful thanks to its large and powerful physique. It was shown to take {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}'s {{m|BubbleBeam}}, {{m|Whirlpool}} ''and'' {{m|Peck}} in quick succession with no resistance at all as well as knocking it out for the third time in [[DP106]].

==Moves used==
* {{m|Take Down}}
* {{m|Ice Shard}}
* {{m|Dig}}
* {{m|AncientPower}}

==Trivia==
* {{P|Mamoswine}}, alongside [[Ash's Gliscor]], is the only Pokémon in the parties of {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} to be absent from the original [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Dex number|Sinnoh Dex]] (though [[Jessie]] of [[Team Rocket]] has {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}, and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, and [[Paul]] owns {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}}, {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}, and {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}}).
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, is the first capture Dawn has made since {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}, exactly [[DP034|50 episodes before]]. It is also her only capture in which she didn't {{pkmn|battle}} the Pokémon twice, or even at all.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, is the fifth, and most recent, Pokémon introduced in [[Generation II]] that is in the party of a member of the main cast during the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, is also the second Pokémon that Dawn owns that was introduced in a generation other than the one she was introduced in, the first being Aipom. Like Aipom, Piloswine has a Generation IV evolved form.
* Mamoswine is the fourth Pokémon in the [[Pokémon anime]] to evolve by knowing a certain move, following Brock's {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}, Dawn's {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} and Jessie's {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, and is the second Pokémon of Dawn's to evolve by this method.
** Mamoswine is also the second Pokémon to evolve by learning the move {{m|AncientPower}}, the first being Jessie's Yanmega, which also evolved rather quickly after being captured.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, has some similarities with [[May's Munchlax]]: Mamoswine loves to eat mass quantities of [[Poffin]]; likewise, May's Munchlax enjoys mass quantities of [[Pokéblock]] (the [[Generation III]] counterpart of the Poffin).
* So far, Mamoswine is Dawn's only {{cat|dual-type Pokémon}}.
* Mamoswine is Dawn's second evolved Pokémon, the first being {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}}. Both are final forms of a [[Generation II]] evolution family. Coincidentally, both need to know a specific move to evolve.
* [[DP104]], the episode in which {{p|Swinub}} evolves into {{p|Piloswine}}, first aired in Japan in the same week that ''[[DP084|Hungry For the Good Life!]]'', the episode in which Swinub is captured, first aired in the United States. The same thing happened to [[Ash's Gliscor]].
* Mamoswine is the first Pokémon in the current saga to appear evolved in an opening prior to its actual evolution being shown. Furthermore, it was as a {{p|Mamoswine}}.
** It was changed back to a Piloswine in the opening of [[DP106]], despite it evolving in that episode. The inclusion as a Mamoswine in [[DP104]]'s opening may have been an error.
* Mamoswine is similar to [[Ash's Charizard]] in many aspects.
** Both were caught in their base forms.
** Both are the fifth Pokémon captured by their [[Pokémon Trainer|trainers]] (Mamoswine is the sixth Dawn actually obtained, but {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was obtained in a trade, and not truly captured).
** Both of them disobeyed their trainers when they evolved, but were both quite loyal to their trainers in their base forms.
** Both evolved to their final forms within a short span of episodes and retained their disobedience.
** Both were the second Pokémon on their respective teams to evolve to their final forms (the first being {{TP|Ash|Butterfree}} for Ash and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} for Dawn).
** Both were caught in their base forms without having to be fought.
* Like many other main characters' Pokémon, Mamoswine was obtained after the Pokémon's species' debut in a [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|movie]].
*Mamoswine is Dawn's first Pokémon to evolve three times.

List of Pokémon with gender differences

2008-12-28T02:30:11Z

Ericklebleu: /* Sinnoh evolution families */

Differences between the genders of many species are apparent, not only in the real world, where animals like [[wp:cardinal (bird)|cardinal]]s have a brightly-colored male and a dull-colored female, but also in the [[Pokémon world]], where some species of Pokémon have a noticeable difference between the male and female of the species beginning in [[Generation IV]].
