'''Shaymin''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''シェイミ''' ''Shaymin'') is a {{type|Grass}} [[Mythical Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from another Pokémon, Shaymin has a [[#Form data|second form]] activated by using a [[Gracidea|Gracidea flower]] in the [[time|daytime]]. Its original form, '''Land Forme''', will then become the {{2t|Grass|Flying}}-type '''Sky Forme'''. Shaymin's Sky Forme will revert into and remain in its Land Forme during the night or when {{status|frozen}}. Other circumstances may also cause it to revert.

(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Form data|Game data→Form data]] for these details.)

Shaymin was officially revealed in February 2008, when it was listed as a star of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. In early June of the same year, its Sky Forme was revealed.

==Biology==
[[File:Shaymin M11 flowers.png|thumb|left|250px|Land Forme Shaymin's extra petals]]
Shaymin is a small, white, {{wp|hedgehog}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. In Land Forme, it has green grass-like fur on its back and a pink flower with two leaves on each side of its head, which resembles the [[Gracidea]] flower. More flowers appear on its back whenever it feels comfortable, but when it senses danger, it rapidly hides them again. Its legs are short and its underside is plump. Shaymin is one of the [[List of Pokémon by height|shortest]] {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.

[[File:Shaymin Land Forme toxic petals.png|thumb|250px|Land Forme Shaymin's petals after absorbing toxins]]
Shaymin can instantly purify any polluted area of all impurities in the air and transform it into a lush field of flowers. It takes in the polluted air, purifies it inside its body, breaks it down into water and light, and releases the purified substance in a violent, explosive burst. Its power varies based on the type of pollution absorbed. Shaymin can also communicate with telepathy and sense the gratitude of others.

Each season, Shaymin gathers in herds with others in a flower field somewhere and migrates from there. This behavior is called Flower Carrying, because a new field of flowers grow wherever it lands. Shaymin is also attracted to areas where there is a lot of gratitude. Land Forme Shaymin has a shy personality and is easily scared. It also exhibits the behavior of scratching itself with its hind leg. Shaymin lives in fields of flowers. Since it camouflages by curling itself up, it can easily escape people's notice. It has been observed to like sweet food.

Shaymin is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Seed Flare}}.

===Forms===
[[File:Shaymin Sky Forme toxic petals.png|thumb|250px|Sky Forme Shaymin's petals after absorbing toxins]]
Shaymin has two forms it can change between: Land Forme and Sky Forme.

In Sky Forme, it has a slender, canine-like appearance. The fur on its back becomes a mohawk, and it has a red flower petal on the left side of its neck, resembling a scarf or cape. It has flat, white ears resembling wings, a small tuft of fur on the front of its neck, and a stumpy tail.

The blooming of [[Gracidea|Gracidea flowers]] confers the power of flight upon Shaymin, transforming it into its Sky Forme. It reverts to Land Forme at night or if it is {{status|Freeze|frozen}}. Sky Forme Shaymin has a courageous, energetic, and playful personality. It spreads feelings of gratitude when it takes flight. Sky Forme Shaymin has a deeper voice than Land Forme.

===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky}}: A tribe of Shaymin have made their [[Shaymin Village|home]] at near the trail leading to the top of the nearby [[Sky Peak]] mountain. An accompanying Shaymin demonstrates its ability to instantly purify polluted environments, its use of the [[Gracidea]] to transform into its {{form|Shaymin|Sky Forme}}, and can be recruited into the player's party after clearing the dungeon for a second time.

===Form data===
Shaymin has two forms it can change between: Land Forme, introduced in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, and Sky Forme, introduced in {{game|Platinum}}.

Normally, Shaymin is in its Land Forme, which is {{type|Grass}} and resembles a hedgehog. When exposed to a [[Gracidea]], Shaymin transforms into its Sky Forme, which is {{2t|Grass|Flying}}-type and white in color.
[[File:Shaymin Forme Selection Super Mystery Dungeon.png|right|frameless|278x278px]]
Sky Forme Shaymin will revert into and remain in its Land Forme at night or if it is {{status|frozen}}; Shaymin also changes back to Land Forme when deposited in the [[PC]] (prior to [[Generation VII]]), when withdrawn from the PC (Generation VII onward), when deposited in {{g|Bank}} (but not {{g|HOME}}), or when deposited in the [[Pokémon Day Care]] or [[Pokémon Nursery]]. If a frozen Shaymin in Sky Forme is holding a [[Lum Berry]] or an [[Aspear Berry]], it will eat the Berry after transforming back to Land Forme. In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Sky Forme Shaymin will also revert to Land Forme when exposed to a Gracidea again, and will not revert into its Land Forme at night unless it enters a {{pkmn|battle}} during the night. {{status|Frostbite}} will also cause it to revert to Land Forme. In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, Sky Forme Shaymin will not revert into its Land Forme at night until after a battle.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], Shaymin becomes Sky Forme temporarily when the Gracidea item is used. The Gracidea can be obtained for free daily from a Shaymin in the [[Shaymin Village]]. In [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon|Super Mystery Dungeon]], Shaymin's Forme can be selected manually before entering a dungeon. In Explorers of Sky, Sky Forme Shaymin has boosted action speed. In Super Mystery Dungeon, Sky Forme merely affects its type.

The two forms have different [[base stats]], {{Abilities}}, [[type]]s, [[move]]s they can learn, and [[cry|cries]].

In [[Generation IV]], Sky Forme Shaymin's cry cannot be played in the [[Pokédex]], due to it only registering the first form encountered. As wild or traded Shaymin will be in Land Forme and Pokémon aren't registered in link battles, it is impossible to register a Sky Forme Shaymin. The only cry used for Shaymin in {{g|Ranger: Guardian Signs}} is the one of its Land Forme.

[[File:Shaymin Sky anime.png|thumb|250px|Sky Forme Shaymin in {{aniseries|DP}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Shaymin (M11)]]====
Shaymin debuted in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', where it was fleeing from {{mov|Giratina}}. It thought that Giratina wanted to eat it, but in reality, the Renegade Pokémon wanted to use Shaymin's {{m|Seed Flare}} to open a portal from the [[Reverse World]] to the [[Pokémon world|real world]]. It appeared in both of its Formes in the {{pkmn|movie}}. This Shaymin had the ability to {{pkmn2|Talking|talk}} via telepathy.

====[[Mallow's Shaymin]]====
In ''[[SM108|Memories in the Mist!]]'', a Shaymin encountered {{an|Mallow}} after being drawn to her strong feelings of gratitude towards [[Mallow's mother|her late mother]]. Mallow took care of it until ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', where Shaymin was exposed to some Gracideas, transforming into its Sky Forme, and then flew away. This Shaymin was unique in that, in its Sky Forme, its eyes resembled the eyes of Mallow's mother, instead of those of a regular Shaymin.

====Other====
Shaymin made its regular animated series debut in ''[[DP168|Keeping In Top Forme!]]'', where [[Marley]] was protecting it from {{TRT}}. She, along with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, then spent the majority of the episode trying to take Shaymin to a flower field so it could reunite with its friends.

===Minor appearances===
A Shaymin appeared in its Land Forme during the ending credits in ''[[PK24|Meloetta's Moonlight Serenade]]''.

Three Shaymin appeared in their Sky Formes in ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', where they greeted the Shaymin Mallow had been taking care of and accompanied it during its departure.

[[File:Shaymin 3DS trophy SSB4.png|thumb|150px|Shaymin trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS]]
Shaymin also appears in both Formes as a single trophy in the 3DS version of the game.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''When in its Land Forme, this Pokémon sports a fetching pink flower. In Sky Forme, it can take to the air with ease. This Legendary Pokémon is hard to find, but it can sense anyone with a grateful heart. This ability is where the name "Gratitude Pokémon" comes from.''

'''PAL''': ''No wonder this Mythical Pokémon is so hard to find! In its Land Forme, it looks just like a flowery patch of grass. Good luck spotting that in a field! Shaymin has two different forms, though, and in Sky Forme, it can fly. In both forms, Shaymin reacts to gratitude, hence its nickname: the Gratitude Pokémon.'

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Shaymin appears as {{sbw|Spirits}} in its Land Forme and Sky Forme.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Despite being a [[Mythical Pokémon]], ''[[Pokémon Diamond & Pokémon Pearl: Super Music Collection|Battle! (Wild Pokémon)]]'' plays while battling it in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, {{v2|Platinum}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl}}.
* Shaymin Sky Forme is the only {{type|Flying}} Mythical Pokémon, excluding {{p|Arceus}} while holding a [[Sky Plate]].
* From [[Generation IV]] to {{gen|VI}}, it is impossible to use Shaymin's Sky Forme in the [[Battle Spot]] or in online competitions that allow Mythical Pokémon. This is because only Pokémon stored in the [[PC]] can be used and Shaymin would revert to Land Forme as soon as deposited. In [[Generation VII]], this was changed so that Sky Forme can be deposited into the PC and only revert to Land Forme when withdrawn.
* Due to a [[glitch]] in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, it was possible to reach [[Flower Paradise]] and catch Shaymin without [[Oak's Letter]]. This was patched in version 1.1.2.
** This glitch was the only method of obtaining a shiny Shaymin without the event, as the Shaymin in {{g|Legends: Arceus}} is Shiny-locked.
* Shaymin requires [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword or Shield]] save data to be caught in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, despite not being available in either of the former.
* Shaymin Sky Forme is the only Pokémon introduced in {{game|Platinum}} that the player can legitimately own multiple of in [[Generation IV]].
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there is a unique animation for Shaymin transforming into its Land Forme if it is [[Walking Pokémon|walking with the player]] when the [[time]] changes to night.
* Shaymin is the most recently introduced Mythical Pokémon to belong to the Medium-Slow [[Experience|Experience Group]]. All Mythical Pokémon released since have belonged to the Slow Experience Group.

===Origin===
Shaymin's Land Forme is based on a {{wp|hedgehog}}. However, its white body and the grass-like fur on its back make it somewhat resemble a {{wp|Chia Pet}} as well. It may also be inspired by flower meadows or flower gardens. Moreover, when Land Forme Shaymin blooms with flowers, as seen in the {{pkmn|movie}} ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', Shaymin appears as a bouquet of flowers, which are commonly given as a sign of thankfulness, emphasizing Shaymin's role as the Gratitude Pokémon. The flower on its body resembles a [[Gracidea]] and could be based on a {{wp|hydrangea}}, particularly the {{wp|Hydrangea macrophylla|bigleaf hydrangea}}. It also shares, together with the leaves on its Sky Forme's neck, similarities with a {{wp|poinsettia}}, a popular Christmas flower.

Shaymin's Sky Forme has a few aspects, like antlers, that resemble {{wp|reindeer}} and the ability to fly could be based on {{wp|Santa Claus's reindeer}}, but its sprightly behavior, an affinity for flowers, and the ability to fly bring to mind {{wp|angel}}s and {{wp|fairy|fairies}}. Due to its healing abilities, it could also be based on a {{wp|guardian angel}}. Given the appearance of the flower around its neck resembling the knot of a {{wp|neckerchief}}, the resemblance to the green of its legs to boots or gloves, ability to fly, and more confident attitude seen in {{aniseries|PTS}} and related media, Sky Forme Shaymin may be inspired by superheroes, particularly those in the Japanese sentai genre.

Shaymin's ability to convert toxic gases into fresh air may be a reference to the {{wp|environmentalism|environmentalist}} practice of removing pollution from nature for a healthier ecosystem. It could also be a reference to plants filtering non-breathable {{wp|carbon dioxide}} from the atmosphere into breathable {{wp|oxygen}}, or {{wp|decomposer|decomposer organisms}} converting decaying or waste materials into nutrient-rich soil for future plant growth. Its ability to transform land into a flower field in combination with its Flying-type could also be a reference to {{wp|pollen}} and {{wp|spore}}s in the air or in the wind {{wp|seed dispersal#Wind|floating seeds}}.

====Name origin====
Shaymin is from 謝謝 ''xièxie'' (Chinese for ''thanks'').<ref>[https://lineblog.me/masudajunichi/archives/4073542.html Junichi Masuda's Official Blog on Line] (Japanese)</ref> It may also be derived from 蝟 ''harinezumi'' (hedgehog) and םשמי ''{{wp|Shamayim}}'' (Hebrew for ''heaven'') with the latter correlating directly with Shaymin's Sky Forme.

'''Lysandre''' (Japanese: '''フラダリ''' ''Fuladari''<ref>[https://static.mercdn.net/item/detail/orig/photos/m71414691435_1.jpg?1733128459 "Fuladari & Kaenjishi" Pokémon Center Clear Card merchandise]</ref>) is the boss of [[Team Flare]], the main antagonist of [[Pokémon X and Y]] and a supporting character in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. He is also a descendant of royalty, as well as a philanthropist and the owner of [[Lysandre Labs]], the company that created the [[Holo Caster]]. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} '''Team Flare Boss''' (Japanese: '''フレアだんボス''' ''Flare Gang Boss'').

He originally sought to use the [[ultimate weapon]] to reduce the {{pkmn|world|world}} population in order to return the planet to a more "beautiful", unspoiled state; what he implies to be a world without 'negative' or 'ugly' concepts, such as strife, struggle, war, or despair.<ref name="Pokémon.com 2017-11-02">Lysandre is the boss of Team Flare, the villainous organization that appeared in ''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y''. He is, by nature, a man of deep sympathies—but has been driven to despair by watching humans fighting and struggling against one another, and he comes to believe that the only way for people to live in beauty, without strife or struggle, is by reducing the number of people living in the world. He restored the ultimate weapon, which had been sealed away 3000 years earlier, and then, using the power of the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas or Yveltal, he attempted to eradicate life.</ref>

After being saved from a near-death experience by {{Ga|Zygarde}}, who had protected all living beings from the firing of the ultimate weapon in X and Y, Lysandre lost most of his memories and took on the moniker '''L''' (Japanese: '''Ｆ''' ''F''), now working alongside Zygarde to restore its powers and save [[Lumiose City]].

==In the core series games==
===Appearance===
====Pokémon X and Y====
Lysandre is a tall, well-built man with light skin and blue eyes. He has [[#Hair|long spiky orange hair]] and a beard.

He wears a red shirt with a cravat beneath his black jacket, which has a white fur collar. The jacket has a single-button cuffs, red side stripes and front flap pockets with red contrast trim. His black pants also have red side stripes and back welt pockets with red contrast trim. He wears black shoes and black fingerless gloves on his hands. On his left hand, he wears a [[Key Stone#Gallery|Mega Ring]] with the Team Flare insignia engraved on its sides, which he wears on his middle finger.

In the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], Lysandre appears with a cybernetic apparatus called the '''Lysandre Machine'''. The apparatus consists of a bronze, beetle-like gauntlet worn on his right arm, a gray mechanical backpack and three flying insect-like devices connected to the backpack by cables. He also wears an orange visor similar to those worn by Team Flare scientists.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
After Lysandre survived the activation of the [[ultimate weapon]] in X and Y, he reappeared five years later. Due to his close exposure to the ultimate weapon, his lifespan was extended by three thousand years, similar to [[AZ]]'s. His left eye was seemingly blinded, taking on an unnatural glow, which he only opened during battle. His hair turned white and became shorter, and his beard is white with orange streaks, reminiscent of his original hair color.

His outfit appears worn. He wears a black hooded jacket with a fur collar. On the jacket's elbows are red stitched patches, with the right patch shaped like a Y. Beneath the jacket, he wears a gray shirt with red buttons and under that, a red hoodie whose hood is stitched down the middle. His pants are gray with red stitched patches on the knees, with the left patch shaped like an X. He also wears red socks and black shoes. Lysandre still keeps his Mega Ring with him however, he no longer wears it on his hand.

===History===
====Background====
Lysandre is descended from Kalos royalty and old friends with [[Professor Sycamore]].<ref>'''Professor Sycamore:''' ''"Actually, Lysandre himself is of royal ancestry... He truly is a chosen one."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> As the rich owner of a technology company, Lysandre was a philanthropist who often made donations to better the world.<ref>'''Professor Sycamore:''' ''"Lysandre is a great man. He supports Trainers and Pokémon research with some of the profit from the Holo Caster."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> One of the people he helped was a young [[Corbeau]], who would come to idolize Lysandre for his generosity. Lysandre formed an organization called [[Team Flare]] to serve as a place for people to come together and help one another, as seen when [[Grisham]] and [[Griselle]] joined the organization in their youth. As time went on, Lysandre witnessed the ugliness of people and the world, and found that his charities and donations were not doing as much good as he had hoped. He gradually turned into a misanthrope who saw no hope for the future because of human "foolishness".<ref>'''Lysandre:''' ''I tried to save people--and the world--with the profit from this lab. But my efforts had no effect... The world was just too vast...and too full of fools that I couldn't save through my hard work alone."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> He would come to blame the expanding human population for this, deciding that conflict came from people being unable to share limited resources.<ref>'''Lysandre:''' ''"When there is only one of something, it can't be shared. When something can't be shared, it will be fought over. And when something is fought over, some must survive without it. The only way to create a world where people live in beauty, a world without conflict or theft, is to reduce the number of living things."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> Lysandre is also one of the few who knows where the ultimate weapon was buried, thanks to his ancestor who buried it in the first place. He also transformed Team Flare from a peaceful organization into a villainous group dedicated to creating a more "beautiful and better" world. To accomplish this, he needed both the ultimate weapon, and financial support, which involved eliminating anyone who opposed his vision for the new world he intended to create.

===={{g|X and Y}}====
[[File:Lysandre meeting Player XY.png|thumb|250px|left|Lysandre meeting the player at Sycamore's lab]]
The player first meets Lysandre in [[Professor Sycamore]]'s {{kal|Pokémon Research Lab|laboratory}} in [[Lumiose City]] seeing potential in them, and then later in [[Café Soleil]], where he is seen talking to [[Diantha]] about her acting career. He discusses with her about the idea of eternal beauty, but she quickly dismisses the idea, claiming that she does not look for such a thing, much to Lysandre's annoyance. After this, he spots the player, where he speaks about his dream of a beautiful world.

Following this, Lysandre doesn't reappear until much later, after the player has defeated [[Clemont]] for their fifth Badge. This time, he meets the player and Professor Sycamore at [[Lysandre Café]] and speaks about the [[AZ|king of Kalos]] who nearly vaporized all life in the region 3,000 years ago by usage of a weapon. He also speaks about {{p|Xerneas}}'s{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}}'s{{sup/6|Y}} role in the creation of the [[ultimate weapon]], as well as their role in the creation of life and destruction as a whole. After this, Lysandre will regularly communicate with the player through the [[Holo Caster]], monitoring their progress, and constantly showing his vision for a beautiful world as well as asking them to reconsider his proposal and join him on his cause.

Lysandre then appears after the player has received their seventh Badge. At this point, it is revealed through his Holo Caster message that he is the leader of [[Team Flare]], and that he plans to use the weapon which he spoke about earlier in order to eliminate anyone not part of Team Flare, surprising both the player and their neighbor. The player later confronts Lysandre in person at the [[Lysandre Labs]] beneath his café. He wishes to test the player's resolve, and is then battled and defeated. Admiring the player's resolve and strength, he instructs them that if they wish to stop him, he must get the [[Elevator Key]] from one of Team Flare's four scientists the player already met, while he retreats underground.

After the player obtains the Elevator Key and descends further into the lab, they meet with Lysandre who is speaking with a tall man behind bars known as AZ. Lysandre introduces AZ as someone who "shares the name of the previous King of Kalos", and the carrier the key of the ultimate weapon. After AZ tells the player the tragedy left by the ultimate weapon and asks them to stop the device from being used, Lysandre invites the player deeper underground if they wish to stop him. The player descends and meets Lysandre talking with [[Xerosic]]. Lysandre then tells the player to battle Xerosic, and if they are successful against the scientist, then they will stop their scheme. After the player defeats Xerosic, he has them push one of two buttons, one of which activates the weapon. However, pushing the correct one unfortunately does not stop Xerosic from unleashing the weapon on Kalos. If the player chooses the blue button, he will activate the weapon by remote control, otherwise the player activates the weapon.

Lysandre is later found again at the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] at the site of the ultimate weapon in [[Geosenge Town]], where the player's rival questions him about his extreme measures to fix the world. He replies that those measures are the only possible solution because he thinks humans are inherently evil and greedy. He uses the analogy of them competing over their [[Mega Ring]] as an example that when something cannot be shared, people will fight for it, and some will be forced to live without it. As such, more tragedies are likely to happen, and, the only solution is to reduce the human population. When further questioned about Pokémon, he tearfully claims that Pokémon, while magnificent beings, are condemned to be used by humans as tools for war and theft. Therefore, he believes that Pokémon, for the greater good, are best annihilated. He is battled again, as he simply seeks to stall for time against the player. The player defeats Lysandre once again, and he shows further admiration for the player's strength. He then challenges the player to travel deeper into the Team Flare Secret HQ to stop the weapon, despite his belief that it is already too late, but multiple members of Team Flare are waiting in ambush on the lower floors. After defeating them, the player reaches Xerneas{{sup/6|X}}/Yveltal{{sup/6|Y}}. The [[Legendary Pokémon]] is then battled and caught by the player, seemingly disabling the weapon. Lysandre returns wearing the Lysandre Machine, which is intended to drain Xerneas's{{sup/6|X}}/Yveltal's{{sup/6|Y}} energy back into the ultimate weapon, and he declares that he will take the Legendary Pokémon back and complete his plan. Now wielding a Mega Ring of his own, he engages the player in a final battle.
[[File:Lysandre Loses XY.png|frame|Lysandre losing to the player]]
After being defeated for the third and final time, Lysandre expresses his disgust towards the fact that his beautiful world will never be a reality. The player and their friends attempt to reason with him, saying that if people cooperate together, a better world is possible, and they use the Mega Evolution achieved by him as proof of the bond he has with his Pokémon. He, however, rejects the idea as mere naivety and then attempts to 'force immortality on the player, their friends, and himself'{{sup/6|X}}/'kill everyone in the building'{{sup/6|Y}} and fires the ultimate weapon using what little power still remains. Hearing this, the player and their friends quickly leave, after which the blast from the weapon destroys the building and seemingly buries Lysandre and the HQ under rubble, putting an end to Team Flare's threat.

Later on in the game, an NPC in [[Snowbelle City]] who is an old friend of Lysandre mentions that Lysandre had noble intentions and did his best to help people in need, but was eventually convinced of humanity's stupidity, along with his own limitations which resulted in him becoming a misanthrope.

===={{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}====
=====[[Episode RR]]=====
An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Lysandre appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] and one of the second pair of bosses the player must face, along with [[Cyrus]]. Like the other {{cat|villainous team leaders}} in Team Rainbow Rocket, this Lysandre was summoned from a world where his plans succeeded. However, as he explains to the player, a bright light consumed him when he fired the [[ultimate weapon]] and was transported to the game's world. He has his {{tc|Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt}}s set up devices with red and blue buttons in his office within [[Team Rocket's Castle]]. Then, he subjects the player to the same choice the player in Kalos was subjected to, claiming that one button will activate the ultimate weapon and the other will open the path to [[Giovanni]]. However, no matter which button the player chooses, it will be the one that activates the weapon. Lysandre then tells the player that pushing the opposite button will prevent it from firing. However, in order to buy time for the weapon to fire, Lysandre battles the player, using Xerneas{{sup/7|US}}/Yveltal{{sup/7|UM}} as part of his team. When he is defeated, he allows the player to press the other button, ostensibly shutting down the ultimate weapon, as well as unlocking one of the two seals needed to reach Giovanni. Lysandre then wonders if things would have been different in his world if he had met a Trainer like the player. He then rejects that line of thought, resolving that he must bring about his beautiful world. He is later sent back to his own world by [[Colress]] off-screen.

===={{g|Legends: Z-A}}====
[[File:ZA L Credits.png|thumb|left|250px|L in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s [[game credits|credits]]]]
As revealed in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, Lysandre survived his supposed demise in [[Pokémon X and Y]] thanks to {{ga|Zygarde}}, but lost much of his memory in the process. Due to using the ultimate weapon, his body was altered in a similar way to AZ's, cursing him to live for three thousand years. As Zygarde had exhausted its power at the time from defending people and Pokémon from the ultimate weapon's blast, it tasked Lysandre to help it recover its strength in preparation for a [[Ange|future threat]] to Kalos.

Lysandre first meets the player after their first battle with Zygarde outside [[Hotel Z]], under the pseudonym "'''L'''", warning them about the coming crisis in Lumiose City and telling them that they must become a Trainer worthy of Zygarde's trust in order to stop it. He also appears before the player after their battles against the [[Rogue Mega Evolution|Rogue Mega-Evolved]] {{p|Banette}} and {{p|Barbaracle}}, mentioning how [[Emma]] is looking for him and hints at the connection between the Rogue Mega Evolutions and [[Prism Tower]]. L appears alongside Zygarde once more when the player is due to battle [[Jacinthe]] at her personal tournament at [[Hotel Richissime]], where the tournament participants recognize him as Lysandre. L challenges the player to test their strength against Zygarde once more and warns the people of Lumiose of the coming threat. After the player has defeated Zygarde again, L departs to continue collecting more of Zygarde's [[Zygarde Cell|Cells]]. When the player explores the abandoned Lysandre Labs, L shows himself once again, admitting that some of his memories have returned and revealing that five years earlier, as Team Flare was preparing to execute his agenda, he initially envisioned using both [[Ange]], a device hidden within Prism Tower, and the ultimate weapon at the same time. However, because AZ's missing {{TP|AZ|Floette}} was required to activate Ange, Lysandre could not do so, and he was forced to settle for using only the ultimate weapon. During the main game climax, the Zygarde Cells gathered by L allow Zygarde to assume its {{form|Zygarde|Complete Forme}} and combat the {{DL|Ange|Hyperrogue Ange Floette}} alongside the player.

After the player's first reward match in the Infinite [[Z-A Royale]], L comes to Hotel Z to speak with them about AZ, telling them about how the two had talked about the agony of being unable to die and about AZ's good and heinous deeds, including Ange. L surmises that Ange's influence resulted in more [[wild Pokémon]] gathering throughout Lumiose, wondering if it is right that people and Pokémon are kept at arm's length of each other with the city's holo-tech barriers. He wonders if people will find another way, stating that he looks forward to seeing what the people of Lumiose choose. L then explains that more of his memory returned following his conversation with the player in Lysandre Labs, having recalled the existence of Xerneas and Yveltal. He also informs them that since Ange was destroyed, Zygarde has not shown itself, likely due to it having exhausted its power and retreated somewhere to quietly recover. L requests the player to find Xerneas and Yveltal.

After the player has caught Xerneas and Yveltal, L appears before the player outside Hotel Z. He explains that he knows that he tried to give too much to the world in the past, and because his good deeds saw no reward, he wallowed in despair and resentment and decided to take everything for himself instead. He explains how Zygarde seeks to correct excess and restore balance to the world, believing that to be the reason Zygarde rescued him. L then challenges the player to a battle and is defeated. Reflecting on his mistakes, L expresses regret over having fired the ultimate weapon and not trying to understand in the group of children who had defied him five years earlier. He then directs the player to the ruins of Prism Tower in [[Wild Zone 20]] so that they can battle and catch Zygarde. Once the player has succeeded in this, L entrusts Zygarde to the player and gives them the [[Zygarde Cube]] to change its {{form|Zygarde|form}}. Declaring that he still wishes to create a more beautiful world, L nonetheless admits that his methods were flawed, and thus he sets off with the resolve to find a better way to realize his dreams during the three thousand years of living that he now has ahead of him, bidding farewell to the player.

====History====
=====Pre-series=====
As revealed in ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', Lysandre, much like in the games, once had a generous nature and would help those in need. However, after those he supported grew accustomed to his aid and turned greedy, he became disillusioned with the human race, and decided to "restart" the world by wiping out most of its population.

=====[[Mega Evolution Specials]]=====
[[File:Lysandre anime.png|thumb|250px|Lysandre in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'']]
Lysandre debuted in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]''. Though he was not identified as the caller at the time, he contacted [[Alain]] via the [[Holo Caster]], directing him to where a new Mega Stone could be found. He was also seen observing the power of Alain's Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X during its battle with [[Siebold]]'s Mega {{p|Blastoise}}.
[[File:Team Flare Scientists Young.png|thumb|left|250px|A younger Lysandre]]
In ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', Lysandre traveled to [[Hoenn]], intervened in Alain's battle with {{Steven}}, and introduced Alain and Steven properly to each other. It was revealed that in the past, he defeated Alain in a battle over an [[Ampharosite]], then took Alain to [[Lysandre Labs]] and recruited him to work in a project to harness the energy of Mega Evolution for peaceful purposes. Lysandre was also the one who awarded Alain his Mega Ring and Charizardite X, though he asked Alain not to tell Professor Sycamore of the research, fearing that people with bad intentions would bring harm to him in order to obtain it. Later, he traveled with Alain, [[Mairin]], and Steven to a ruin, where they uncovered an ancient [[Giant Rock]]. However, his research on the Giant Rock accidentally summoned {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Rayquaza}}, who destroyed the area. After the encounter with Rayquaza, Lysandre discovered a similar energy reading to the Giant Rock near [[Rustboro City]], and asked Alain to go there and investigate. He also covertly ordered Alain to keep a close eye on Steven, for the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}} had precious information on Mega Evolution.

In ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', Lysandre gave instructions to Alain and Steven. After Mega Rayquaza defeated both [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Groudon}} and Primal {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Kyogre}}, he had the Giant Rock, which had reappeared during the battle of the Legendary Pokémon, taken away with his submarine for further studies.

In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', Lysandre observed Alain's battles against ten Mega Evolution Trainers while his scientists researched the Giant Rock. After [[Chespie]], Mairin's {{p|Chespin}}, who had interfered with the experiments performed on a {{p|Zygarde}} Core, was hospitalized, Lysandre told the victorious Alain that he had to continue gather data on Mega Evolution if Chespie was to recover. He was also shown to be close to Malva, who served as Alain's final opponent.

====={{aniseries|XY}}=====
Lysandre has a major antagonistic role in [[S19|Pokémon the Series: XYZ]], first making appearances in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'' and ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', where he was studying [[Squishy]] alongside [[Xerosic]].

In ''[[XY106|A Meeting of Two Journeys!]]'', Lysandre was contacted by Alain via the Holo Caster, who wanted to know if Mairin's Chespie's condition had improved or not. Later, he reappeared in [[XY107|the next episode]], overseeing the operation to capture [[Z2]] alongside Xerosic. At the end of the episode, he received Z2.

Lysandre reappeared in ''[[XY118|Championing a Research Battle!]]'' and ''[[XY119|A Full-Strength Battle Surprise!]]'', where he received mission reports from Xerosic.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', Lysandre was talking to a man inside a building at the [[Lumiose Conference]]. He soon got a call on a Holo Caster that an {{tc|Team Flare Admin|Admin}} was holding, from Xerosic, who was in the front seat of a truck that was just outside the [[Lumiose Gym]]. Later on at night, he met {{Ash}} for the first time and discussed the capability of [[Ash's Greninja]] to take on its different form in battle. After his conversation with him, he was shown with an annoyed expression, before turning towards the Lumiose Gym and smirked. Lysandre later talked to Mairin after she ran up to him and he put on a happy expression. The next day, Lysandre was seated in a private viewing box inside the Lumiose Conference's stadium with a glass window, along with Mairin and the same Admin, and they all watched as Ash and Alain each walked towards their respective sides of the battlefield in the Lumiose Conference's stadium, for the final round of the Conference.
[[File:Lysandre Machine anime.png|thumb|250px|Wearing the Lysandre Machine in Pokémon the Series: XYZ]]
In ''[[XY130|Finals Not for the Faint-Hearted!]]'' and ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre watched Ash and Alain's battle in the finals of the Lumiose Conference. Towards the end of the latter episode, his true egotistical, narcissistic nature is revealed as he uses the power of Z2 to bring the whole of Kalos into his control, taking over Lumiose City and subsequently the Lumiose Conference, which had just been concluded.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre revealed himself as the leader of Team Flare to a captured Ash. He also televised a message to the citizens of Kalos about his plan for creating a new, beautiful world for Team Flare.

In ''Coming Apart at the Dreams!'', Lysandre explained his motivations and attempted to control Ash and Greninja the same way he did with Zygarde, so that Ash could become the guide of the new world. Ash, however, defied Lysandre and used the [[Bond Phenomenon]] to break free. Following this turn of events, Lysandre equipped his machine and started a fight with Ash and the defecting Alain using his Pyroar and his Shiny Mega Gyarados. Pyroar was defeated through a joint attack by {{AP|Noivern}}, {{AP|Hawlucha}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}}.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Lysandre defeated the majority of Ash's team. He was surprised when Malva appeared to help Alain and Ash, but nonetheless remained confident even after Clemont and Bonnie freed the two Zygarde under his control.

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', Lysandre was finally beaten by Ash and Alain. Refusing to surrender, Lysandre seemingly killed himself by jumping off the tower. It was afterwards revealed that Lysandre had planned for the Giant Rock to transform into a copy of Zygarde, which would engulf the [[Anistar City]] Sundial and release enough energy to wipe out all life on the planet.

He made one final appearance in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]''. After the Giant Rock was temporarily stopped by Ash, Alain, Steven, Malva, [[Diantha]], and all of the Kalos [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Chespie]] was freed from it's control, Lysandre appears and revives the Giant Rock himself using a control device, announcing he still intends to destroy the world even if it means he has to die too. He lost control of the Rock after the device was destroyed by Ash and Alain, and was defeated entirely by Squishy and Z2 after they transformed into Zygarde Complete Forme and destroyed the Giant Rock. The explosion from Zygarde's {{m|Core Enforcer}} engulfs Lysandre, leaving his final fate unclear.

Lysandre appeared in ''[[PG16|The Beauty Eternal]]'', where he announced the release of the [[Holo Caster]]. In the process, he was depicted as a popular and successful businessman. He was later seen discussing with [[Diantha]] about the concept of eternal beauty. Afterwards, he was interviewed by some reporters over his involvement with some secret plans, but he didn't reveal any information. Lysandre was then seen at the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], conducting experiments on {{p|Yveltal}} in the hopes of creating a more beautiful world.

Lysandre appeared in ''[[PE03|The Visionary]]'', where he was shown battling {{ga|Calem}} and his {{p|Xerneas}} inside the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]]. After being easily defeated, he briefly recalled his conversations with [[Professor Sycamore]] and [[Diantha]] about mortality and beauty. He then fired the [[ultimate weapon]] in an attempt to force immortality on himself, Calem, {{ga|Serena}}, and [[Shauna]]. The weapon fired as the Trainers escaped, leaving his fate unknown. One week later, [[Malva]] discussed his legacy on the [[Holo Caster]].

Lysandre briefly appeared as a silhouette in [[GOTCHA!]].

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Lysandre Malva Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Lysandre in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
[[File:Lysandre Machine Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Lysandre wearing the Lysandre Machine in Pokémon Adventures]]
====={{MangaArc|X & Y}}=====
Lysandre debuted in ''[[PS552|They Have a Flare for a Li'l Kanga-Napping]]''. He was first seen in [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab, watching a video of the battle between [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} in [[Vaniville Town]]. He then asked for a copy of the footage for further study.

In ''[[PS558|What Does Charmander Do When It Dozes]]'', Professor Sycamore sent {{adv|Trevor}} and his friends to [[Lysandre Labs|Lysandre Café]] to get repairs for Trevor's [[Holo Caster]]. The group was introduced to Lysandre, but Trevor became suspicious of the man after seeing his silhouette in a photo taken during the Vaniville incident. Noting Trevor's strange behavior, Lysandre asked to see the photo, even using his Pokémon to surround the group when Trevor refused. [[Diantha]] arrived and used her [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} to defend Trevor's group. Lysandre backed off and left to answer a call from [[Xerosic]], who had discovered the location of Xerneas's tree form.

In ''[[PS577|Quilladin Stands]]'', Lysandre returned to the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] after Xerneas's tree form had been successfully transported. He received the Lysandre Machine, which [[Clemont]] was forced to build, and a Mega Ring, which had its [[Key Stone]] stolen from [[Korrina]]. Lysandre and Xerosic began draining Xerneas of its life energy to fuel the [[ultimate weapon]]. {{adv|X}} later broke into the building to put an end to [[Team Flare]]'s ambitions. He found the ultimate weapon's control room and confronted Lysandre, who used his Mega Ring to Mega Evolve his {{p|Gyarados}}. During their battle, X had his [[Élec]] use its {{a|Lightning Rod}} to pull electricity from the ultimate weapon's absorber into its tail, draining the machine of its power. This allowed Xerneas to awaken from its slumber and revert back to normal.

In ''[[PS580|Flabébé Blooms]]'', Trevor, {{adv|Tierno}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, [[Clemont]], [[Emma]], and [[AZ]] arrived at the control room, where they found X had already been defeated. Trevor, Tierno, and Shauna tried removing the ultimate weapon's key but were unable to pull it out in time before it fired. To Lysandre's frustration, the combined efforts of X and his friends successfully weakened the ultimate weapon, preventing it from taking any innocent lives. AZ stayed behind to allow Xerneas to escape back to the surface with X and the others. When Malva attempted to confront X's group with Yveltal, Lysandre ordered a ceasefire due to it and Xerneas being evenly matched. Xerneas confirmed this and retreated, taking X and the others with it.

In ''[[PS582|Pinsir Glares]]'', Team Flare was revealed to have blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on X's friends and the Gym Leaders. They moved operations to the [[Pokémon Village]] to keep a low profile. When Xerosic later discovered the stones lining {{rt|10|Kalos}} are an older form of the absorber, Team Flare began using them to drain the life energy of the Pokémon living at the village. These actions earned Team Flare the anger of {{adv|Mewtwo}}, who protected the Pokémon Village. In ''[[PS590|Yveltal Steals]]'', X and {{adv|Blue}} found Lysandre in battle with Mewtwo at the village. Hoping to have Mewtwo weakened enough for capture, Lysandre tried to trick it into attacking X and Blue, only for {{adv|Blaine}} to arrive and Mega Evolve Mewtwo into its Y form.

In ''[[PS591|Mewtwo Angered]]'', Lysandre summoned [[Emma|Essentia]] and used a device to control her like a puppet. By talking into the device, Essentia would repeat Lysandre's words, allowing him to command the {{adv|Zygarde}} she had caught earlier. While Blaine and Mewtwo kept Zygarde still, X defeated Essentia, uncovering her true identity as his friend Emma. With some words of encouragement from X and [[Cassius]], Emma betrayed Lysandre, but was attacked by his Gyarados before she could command Zygarde. Lysandre took Zygarde's [[Poké Ball]], only for {{adv|Y}} to arrive and take his Mega Ring. Although he was angered by this, Lysandre made an announcement to the entire Kalos region, informing the public of Team Flare's plan to destroy everything with the ultimate weapon. By borrowing Key Stones from his allies, X was able to activate Mega Evolution for his entire team at once.

In ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', Lysandre used Zygarde to battle X's Mega-Evolved team. As the battle went on, X's friends noticed Zygarde's body was breaking apart due to Xerneas and Yveltal reverting to their tree and cocoon forms. Once they fully reverted, X had his team launch one final attack, fully separating Zygarde. Malva attempted to save Lysandre from falling, only for both to land onto the rubble below. Heavily injured, Lysandre weakly asked Malva why the ultimate weapon had not yet been fired. Afterward, Blaine revealed Lysandre was alive, but had sustained severe injuries to his spinal cord.

====={{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}=====
Lysandre reappeared in a flashback as a silhouette when Sina and Dexio were explaining Zygarde's presence in Alola.

==Trivia==
[[File:Parfum Palace Portrait.png|thumb|200px|Portrait of one of Lysandre's ancestors]]
* Both [[Parfum Palace]] and the [[Lumiose Museum]] contain a painting of the king who built the palace. It's revealed in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} that the aforementioned king was suspected to be a descendant of [[AZ]]'s younger brother, and by extension, an ancestor of Lysandre.
** Additionally, the Lysandre Machine bears a striking resemblance to the bug-shaped accessory worn by the king.
* Lysandre shares three Pokémon with [[Cyrus]], another leader of a [[Team Galactic|villainous team]]: {{p|Murkrow}}, {{p|Honchkrow}}, and {{p|Gyarados}}. Their goals are also similar; both involve trying to wipe out everyone for some purpose and using [[Legendary Pokémon]] to achieve it.
** [[Xerosic]] and [[Mable]], two of his top scientists, possess a {{p|Crobat}} and a {{p|Houndoom}} and {{p|Weavile}}, respectively; all Pokémon that Cyrus had.
* In {{aniseries|PTS}}, the Lysandre Machine's functions are different: the "bugs" attached to the backpack piece are able to shoot beams of Mega Evolution energy, while the gauntlet is used to control the [[Giant Rock]]. Additionally, the pieces of the suit are capable of flight and can carry Lysandre into the air while he is wearing them.
* Lysandre's Gyarados knows {{m|Iron Head}} and {{m|Outrage}}, which it cannot learn in {{g|X and Y}}. The only way for Gyarados to know these moves in Pokémon X and Y is through [[Move Tutor]]s in {{v2|Platinum}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and {{2v2|Black|White|2}} before being transferred through [[Pokémon Bank]], or through a Move Tutor in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the latter of which wasn't available at the time of X and Y's release.
* The background story of Lysandre told by an NPC in Snowbelle City is similar to the manga ''{{wp|Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind}}'', where a king, who wants to save humanity and wanting peace for his peasants, eventually realizes their stupidity and grows to hate them, eventually becoming a tyrant.
* Lysandre's hairstyle was stylized to somewhat resemble a [[List of Pokémon with gender differences#Pyroar|male]] {{p|Pyroar}}'s mane, one of his Pokémon.
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader to debut in a special episode of the {{pkmn|animated series}}, and also the first to have a [[Shiny Pokémon]].
** In ''Pokémon the Series'', Lysandre is not Professor Sycamore's former pupil. Instead, the two only meet for the first time during the events of the {{aniseries|XY|''XY'' series}} special, ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''.
* When Lysandre is defeated for the last time in X and Y, the {{player}} performs a unique victory pose.
* Lysandre's visor can be seen on his desk in [[Team Rocket's Castle]], though he does not wear it at any point as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]].
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader in the [[core series]] who never wears his team's insignia on his clothing.
** He is also the only member of Team Flare who does not regularly wear any sort of eyewear, however he does wear a visor when using the Lysandre Machine.
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader in ''Pokémon the Series'' whom {{Ash}} defeated in a battle.
** He was also the first villainous team leader in the animated series since {{an|Giovanni}} to be shown to use Pokémon of his own, instead of just controlling one or more Legendary Pokémon.

'''Diantha''' (Japanese: '''カルネ''' ''Carne'') is a famous and renowned actress who is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Kalos]] region's [[Kalos League|Pokémon League]] in {{g|X and Y}}. She is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} '''{{tc|Grand Duchess}}'''.

==In the core series games==
===History===
[[File:Diantha Battle XY.png|thumb|left|250px|Diantha challenging the player]]
====[[Pokémon X and Y]]====
Diantha appears in [[Pokémon X and Y]] as a famous movie star and a notable icon across the Kalos region. She is also a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, but shows more interest in other Trainers who have real potential. She takes a special interest in the {{player}} from their first meeting in [[Café Soleil]] in [[Lumiose City]] and later when she meets the player again in [[Coumarine City]], expressing interest in battling them at some point.

Later, she reappears as the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Kalos]] [[region]] at the {{kal|Pokémon League}}.

After registering in the [[Hall of Fame]], Diantha can be found in Café Soleil, where she will ask the player to [[trade]] one of their Pokémon for her {{p|Ralts}} holding the [[Mega Stone]] for {{p|Gardevoir}}, the [[Gardevoirite]]. She will also appear in the [[Battle Chateau]] once the player has reached the highest rank, {{tc|Grand Duke}}/{{tc|Grand Duchess}}.

====[[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]====
In {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, several NPCs around [[Lumiose City]] discuss Diantha, revealing that she focused on her acting career after her defeat as Champion. An advertisement can be found in [[Bleu Sector 7]] for Diantha's latest [[Movies in the Pokémon world|film]], ''The Suffering of a Carnation'', the title of which is a reference to her own Japanese name.

=====[[Mega Dimension]]=====
While Diantha herself does not appear in the game, it is revealed she has a daughter named [[Ansha]], who mentions that Diantha is in a faraway [[region]] filming a movie. Ansha's dream is to find the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Rayquaza}} in [[Hyperspace Lumiose]] and gift it to her mom. She also was the one who taught [[Jacinthe]] about [[Pokémon battle|Pokémon battling]], with her {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} cited as the inspiration behind Jacinthe specializing in {{t|Fairy}} types. Although Ansha eventually lets the {{player}} keep Rayquaza, she is able to provide a pleasant gift for her mother with her donuts and stories.

==In animation==
===''Pokémon the Series''===
====''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''====
[[File:Diantha anime.png|thumb|250px|Diantha in {{aniseries|JN}}]]
Diantha debuted in ''[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]'', where she was shown having an exhibition {{pkmn|battle}} against {{OBP|Magnus|XY028}}. With her {{p|Gardevoir}}, Diantha had very little trouble in defeating her opponent's {{p|Absol}} where it was shown she could direct her Gardevoir through mere eye contact. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} later encountered Diantha in disguise, trying to get a piece of chocolate cake from a shop. She agreed to have a battle with Ash, but the battle between {{AP|Pikachu}} and Gardevoir was soon interrupted by {{TRT}}, who caught Gardevoir and took it away. With the guidance of Diantha's Key Stone, Ash and his friends were able to find Team Rocket. Diantha then Mega Evolved her Gardevoir into Mega Gardevoir, easily breaking out of its confinement and sending the Rocket trio blasting off again.

She was seen in a fantasy in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'', where it is also revealed that she and Gardevoir participated in the [[Pokémon Summer Camp]] back when Diantha was younger and Gardevoir was a {{p|Ralts}}.

In the beginning of ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'', Diantha was battling [[Wikstrom]]. She also appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]''.

In ''[[XY118|Championing a Research Battle!]]'', Diantha spoke with [[Olympia]] about the threat that Kalos was to face in the future, during which Olympia showed her a vision of {{p|Zygarde}}. When Olympia mentioned Ash and his friends, Diantha decided to track them down and let them know what she had heard, eventually meeting them in the middle of a training session. When she was informed about the mystical power of Ash and {{AP|Greninja}}, she requested to battle Ash again. Diantha and Gardevoir initially held the upper hand, but as the battle continued Ash and Greninja (which eventually transformed into Ash-Greninja, to Diantha's shock) kept doing better. Diantha eventually decided to get serious and Mega Evolve her Gardevoir. Ash and Greninja, however, managed to perfect their transformation and knocked Gardevoir off its feet. But before the battle could continue, Ash and Greninja both passed out. Team Rocket then tried to get their hands on a weakened Gardevoir, but Diantha easily sent them blasting off again. After thanking Gardevoir for its efforts and making sure Ash and Greninja were okay, Diantha left, but could not help but question the nature of Greninja's transformation and the role Ash and his friends were to play. She also appeared again in another flashback in [[XY119|the following episode]].

Diantha made further appearances since ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', where she stood in the middle of the [[Lumiose Conference]]'s stadium and welcomed the participants of the Conference. In ''[[XY127|Analysis Versus Passion!]]'' and ''[[XY128|A Riveting Rivalry!]]'', she watched Ash's and [[Sawyer]]'s battle in the semifinal round. In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', she was watching, along with Professor Sycamore, as Ash and [[Alain]] each walked towards their respective sides of the battlefield in the Lumiose Conference's stadium, for the final round of the Conference. In ''[[XY130|Finals Not for the Faint-Hearted!]]'', she watched the start of Ash and Alain's battle in the final round of the Lumiose Conference; and in ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', she watched the battle's conclusion.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', and ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Diantha was caught up in [[Team Flare]]'s attack on [[Lumiose City]].

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', Diantha helped destroy the [[Giant Rock]].

She appeared again in a flashback in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]''.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
[[File:Iris Cynthia and Diantha photo.png|thumb|left|250px|Diantha with Cynthia and Iris]]
In ''[[JN026|Splash, Dash, and Smash for the Crown!]]'', Diantha was on the cover of a magazine read by [[Jessie]].

Diantha, along with her Gardevoir, appeared on a television screen in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]''.

In ''[[JN109|Aim For The Eight!]]'', Diantha was revealed to be one of the eight competitors in the Master Class of the [[World Coronation Series]], ranked fifth.

In ''[[JN115|Curtain Up! Fight the Fights!]]'', Diantha participated in the [[Masters Eight Tournament]], along with the rest of the Masters Eight, reuniting with Ash, Alain, and Steven, and meeting {{an|Iris}} and the other regional Champions. Her first opponent was chosen to be {{an|Lance}}. While waiting for her match, Diantha accepted Iris's request to have a selfie with her and {{an|Cynthia}}. After {{an|Leon}} and Alain's battle had concluded, Diantha headed to the battlefield to start her battle with Lance. In the [[JN116|next episode]], she emerged victorious in her battle, advancing her to the semifinals to face Leon. Following her victory, Diantha was interviewed by a disguised Team Rocket, where Jessie demanded that she'd use her {{p|Gourgeist}} as her finishing Pokémon in her next match, much to her confusion. In the [[JN117|following]] [[JN118|episodes]], Diantha watched the rest of the quarterfinal matches with the other Masters Eight members.

In ''[[JN122|It's... Champion Time!]]'', Diantha battled Leon in the semi-finals. Despite her best efforts, she was unable to defeat even half of his team before her Pokémon were knocked out. As a result, she was eliminated from the tournament. In [[JN123|the]] [[JN124|following]] [[JN125|episodes]], she joined Leon in the waiting room to watch Cynthia's match against Ash. Prior to doing so, however, she briefly talked with Cynthia in the stadium hallway, and told her that she had faith that Cynthia would be the one to reach the finals and break Leon's winning streak. To her surprise, however, Cynthia confessed that she intended to retire from battling after the tournament was over. After the battle, she met up with Cynthia again, to which the latter revealed her change of heart, much to Diantha's delighted relief.

From ''[[JN129|A Flood of Torrential Gains!]]'' to ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', she and Cynthia watched Ash's match against Leon. After Ash had defeated Leon and become the World Champion, an excited Diantha expressed her sudden urge to have a battle, which an equally excited Cynthia agreed to have with her right away.

====Character====
Just like in the games, Diantha is a famous movie star. She starred in a movie titled "{{DL|Movies in the Pokémon world|My Sweet, Sweet Lady}}". She is also a fan of desserts, going out of her way to sample the local delicacies whenever she arrives in a new town. Unlike her manager, [[Kathi Lee]], Diantha is much more relaxed and open, always showing warmth to those around her. She views the bond between Trainer and Pokémon to be of the utmost importance for growth. Such focus allows her to communicate to Gardevoir how and when to dodge simply by making eye contact and looking in a certain direction.

In battle, Diantha's strategy varies depending on which Pokémon she currently is battling with, a fact that leads others to describe her as "an enigma." She views a battle as a performance, to which she always displays a high degree of showmanship and elegance. She has an affinity for support and interference moves such as {{m|Light Screen}}, {{m|Reflect}}, and {{m|Trick-or-Treat}} to gain various advantages, combining such tactics with skillful and serene offensive combos. Furthermore, she is highly perceptive, able to decipher an opponent's strategy and attack pattern and instantly form a counterstrategy.

In ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', Diantha is revealed to have a very close friendship with {{an|Cynthia}}.

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Diantha Adventures.png|200px|thumb|Diantha in Pokémon Adventures]]
[[File:Young Diantha Adventures.png|200px|thumb|left|A younger Diantha in her debut film in Pokémon Adventures]]
===={{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}====
In [[PS616]], a younger Diantha was seen at the [[Tower of Mastery]] in a flashback of {{Steven}}'s time as one of Gurkinn's students.

===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
Diantha debuted in ''[[PS559|Chespin Sows the Seeds of Change]]''. She is one of several people who studied under and received a [[Key Stone]] from [[Gurkinn]]. She is first seen at [[Lysandre Café]] using her [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} to shield {{adv|Y}} and her friends from [[Lysandre]]'s Pokémon. After Lysandre left on other business, Y's excitement at meeting a famous actress attracted the attention of Diantha's fans, forcing everyone to flee out the back door before going their separate ways.

In ''[[PS568|Connecting with Gardevoir]]'', Diantha introduced herself to [[Korrina]], Gurkinn's granddaughter and fellow Mega Evolution Successor. She led Korrina to a nearby river, where Gurkinn was under attack from {{tc|Team Flare Admin}} [[Chalmers]]. After they freed Gurkinn, the trio combined the power of their Mega-Evolved Pokémon to defeat Chalmers. Diantha then revealed she went on vacation from acting to join Gurkinn and Korrina stop the [[Legendary Pokémon]] [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} from falling into [[Team Flare]]'s clutches.

In ''[[PS574|Tying Trevenant]]'', Diantha, Gurkinn, and Korrina arrived at {{rt|9|Kalos}} to help {{adv|X}} and his friends stop Team Flare from taking Xerneas' tree form to [[Team Flare Secret HQ|Team Flare's base]]. Gurkinn helped X take on [[Emma|Essentia]] while Korrina went ahead to keep [[Celosia]] from transporting Xerneas. Diantha was attacked by [[Malva]], who trapped both of them in a {{m|Magic Room}} to stall for time while Xerneas was moved. Y and {{adv|Shauna}} tried breaking the barrier, but were unable to prevent it from sinking into the ground. Team Flare eventually obtained Xerneas and used it to fuel the [[ultimate weapon]], but the combined efforts of X and his friends weakened the device enough to prevent it from taking any lives. Malva later revealed she defeated Diantha and successfully captured Yveltal, who was sleeping in cocoon form in the ground underneath Xerneas's tree. Due to the Legendary Pokémon being equal in strength, both sides were forced to have a ceasefire.

In ''[[PS582|Pinsir Glares]]'', Diantha was revealed to still be alive, having been hidden underground by {{adv|Blue}} to avoid the ultimate weapon's beam. When Blue revealed he was searching for {{adv|Zygarde}}, a Legendary Pokémon said to be able to suppress Xerneas and Yveltal's power. Diantha agreed to help, and the two set off to search for clues to Zygarde's whereabouts. Diantha and Blue traveled to {{rt|15|Kalos}}, where they met up with X and his friends before Diantha went to see Gurkinn at the [[Lost Hotel]]. In ''[[PS586|Zygarde Appears]]'', Diantha and Blue arrived at [[Anistar City]], where they found Zygarde interrupting a battle between X's group and [[Emma|Essentia]]. Before they could land, Essentia managed to catch Zygarde and escape.

In ''[[PS587|Malamar Traps]]'', Diantha, Blue, and X's group set off to confront Team Flare at the [[Pokémon Village]]. Along the way, the group was attacked by [[Xerosic]], who had his {{p|Malamar}} put everyone to sleep with {{m|Hypnosis}}. In ''[[PS590|Yveltal Steals]]'', Diantha was revealed to have woken up and went ahead to village. She was ambushed by Malva, who used her {{p|Talonflame}} to steal Diantha's Mega Charm before taking to the skies. Diantha was assisted by Y, who used her [[Fletchy]] to burn Malva's hand and make her drop the Mega Charm. Y attempted to assist Diantha, but she refused and told Y to let her finish the battle alone. In ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', Malva witnessed Lysandre's defeat, distracting her long enough for Diantha's Gardevoir to take down her Talonflame. Diantha tried to rescuing Malva, but was rejected and forced to watch as Malva fell onto the rubble below after failing to save Lysadre. After Team Flare was defeated, Diantha and the remaining [[Elite Four]] members carried Malva's unconscious body away.

==Trivia==
* Diantha is the only {{pkmn|Champion}} to not use more than one Pokémon of the same [[List of Pokémon by color|color]]. Furthermore, each of her six [[party]] members has a different [[Statistic|stat]] as their highest stat. Her team is as follows: {{p|Hawlucha}} (Green, Speed); {{p|Tyrantrum}} (Red, Attack); {{p|Aurorus}} (Blue, HP); {{p|Gourgeist}} (Brown, Defense); {{p|Goodra}} (Purple, Special Defense); {{p|Gardevoir}} (White, Special Attack).
* The structure of Diantha's team when fought at the Pokémon League is similar to that of {{Steven}}'s team in {{2v|Ruby|Sapphire}} and {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. Both Champions use a [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] and two [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]] introduced in the Generation the Champion debuted, a Flying-type Pokémon that [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|had a unique type combination]] in that generation, and a Psychic-type Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]].
* Diantha appears on an electronic billboard on in the background of the {{OBP|Prism Tower|stage}} stage in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]. This makes her the only non-playable human [[Pokémon]] character to appear on a [[Super Smash Bros. series|Super Smash Bros.]] stage.
** Because Prism Tower is brought over to [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]], she is also the only human Pokémon series character, aside from the {{SSB|Pokémon Trainer}}, to make an appearance in that game.
* Diantha's appearance and occupation as an actress seem to be based on {{wp|Audrey Hepburn}}, her hairstyle reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn's style in ''{{wp|Roman Holiday}}''.
** Diantha's debut animated series episode features her in a film titled ''My Sweet Lady'', an homage to Hepburn's film ''{{wp|My Fair Lady}}''.
* Diantha's {{p|Gourgeist}} is the only Pokémon in {{aniseries|PTS}} to have used the move {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}.
* Diantha is the only regional Champion to have a child that appears in the games.
* According to her [[Ansha|daughter]], Diantha enjoys drinking coffee without sugar.
*A true polymath, Diantha is apparently also gifted as a pâtissière and teacher; having taught her daughter Ansha donut-making and Lady [[Jacinthe]] Pokémon battling.

She is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} '''Successor''' (Japanese: '''けいしょうしゃ''' ''Successor''), and [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

In Pokémon X and Y, she is also the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Shalour City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Shalour Gym]]. She gives the {{badge|Rumble}} to Trainers who defeat her.

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, she [[Friend|befriends]] and joins [[Team MZ]], helping them solve the mystery of [[Hyperspace Lumiose]].

==In the core series games==

=== Appearance ===

==== Pokémon X and Y ====
Korrina is a young girl with a slender, athletic build and fair complexion. She has blue-gray eyes and very long, knee-length cream-blonde hair tied in a big, thick, high fluffy ponytail that emerges from the back of her helmet. She is noted to have powerful legs; the [[television]] show Gym Freaks mentions that her axe-kicks can shatter rocks.

Korrina wears a typical skater attire, consisting of a short white and red sleeveless dress over black cycling shorts and a white and red helmet on her head. In her left hand she holds the Mega Glove, which has the same function as the [[Mega Ring]] as it has a [[Key Stone]] embedded on it. She also wears white rollerskate boots with red decals.

==== Pokémon Legends: Z-A ====
5 years later, Korrina's hair is noticeably longer, and she wears it into a bun and a ring, resembling the Mega Evolution symbol. She first appears wearing a thick white full-body coat, before she takes it off and reveals her current outfit: a zipper crop top with a tall collar, double-layered shorts, and a bandana, all of which are colored in various hues of yellow, green, blue, and purple. Her bandana has the Mega Evolution sigil printed on it. Korrina also wears white arm-length gloves and white boots with yellow-green laces and soles. Her boots have rollerskate wheels embedded in the soles, though they are much less noticeable than her previous appearance.

As part of her goal to master Mega Evolution, Korrina carries many [[Mega Stone]]s on her person, embedding them in bandolier-like straps that wrap around her torso and waist. Like her Pokémon X and Y appearance, Korrina still embeds her Key Stone on the back of her left glove.

===History===
==== Pokémon X and Y ====
[[File:Korrina Gym Battle XY.png|thumb|left|250px|Korrina about to battle the player]]
[[File:Korrina Tower of Mastery XY.png|thumb|250px|Korrina challenging the player at the Tower of Mastery]]
Korrina is a [[Gym Leader]] from [[Shalour City]]. Trainers who defeat Korrina will receive the {{badge|Rumble}}, along with {{TM|98|Power-Up Punch}}. According to the [[television]] show ''Gym Freaks'' and an NPC at [[Café Action!]], she is a [[Trainer PR Video|PR Video]] star and often dresses up in costumes.

Korrina first appears on {{rt|5|Kalos}}, when one of her Lucario comes up to the {{player}} while she is doing some special training. She notes about how Lucario has taken a liking to the player's [[aura]], then introduces herself to the player as the Shalour City Gym Leader. She then appears in [[Geosenge Town]], where she challenges the player to a battle with her two {{p|Lucario}}.

After arriving in Shalour City, Korrina can be found in the [[Tower of Mastery]] with her grandfather [[Gurkinn]], the Mega Evolution guru. Once the player wins the battle for the [[Mega Ring]] against their rival, Korrina will go to her Gym for a battle.

After battling her at the Gym, she will immediately invite the player to a rematch atop the Tower of Mastery. There, Korrina gives the player the Mega Ring. After that, the Lucario that had become close to the player temporarily joins their team, and the two have a one-on-one battle, using just their Lucario, both holding a [[Lucarionite]]. Win or lose, the player has the option of getting the Lucario that joined them for the battle.

Once the player obtains the rank of Marquis/Marchioness at the [[Battle Chateau]], Korrina and the other Gym Leaders will be able to be battled there for [[rematch]]es. There, Korrina will possess the rank of Marchioness.

=====Gym Freaks=====
:April: ''"Hello! It's time for Gym Freaks, your source for the hottest news about hot Gym Leaders in Kalos. So... I'm now in front of the Shalour City Gym! ... Eeek. Korrina has arrived! She's cute! So cute! The way she dresses up in costume-like clothing makes my heart go crazy! Lately, Korrina has been in the PR Video Studio! Following two years of planning and another year of shooting, her highly anticipated new PR Video is scheduled for release at the end of next year! Oh... She went inside the Gym... That's all for the on-site report. Good-bye for now, everyone."''

==== Pokémon Legends: Z-A ====
{{spoilers}}
Korrina is indirectly mentioned by [[AZ]] in a letter he wrote to the player after the credits of the game. In his letter, AZ revealed that prior to the game's events, Korrina had given away a Lucario to him in hopes that it might keep him safe. After AZ passes away, his Lucario and the letter are left in the player's room in [[Hotel Z]].

===== [[Mega Dimension]] =====
Korrina is called by [[Corbeau]] to [[Lumiose City]] to join [[Team MZ]] to help them solve the mysteries of [[Hyperspace Lumiose]].

===[[Pokémon UNITE]]===
Korrina and her Lucario appear in [[Pokémon UNITE]] as an enemy Trainer to fight during the Legacy Trainer Showdown event between September 9, 2022 and October 6, 2022. It took place on [[Theia Sky Ruins]]. The other members of her team are [[Cynthia]], [[Raihan]], [[Leon]], and {{ga|Green}}. The event later returned between April 21, 2023 and May 21, 2023.

Korrina and her Lucario also appear as an enemy Trainer in the recurring {{DL|Theia Sky Ruins|Solo Challenge}} event. This event has Casual, Intermediate, Expert, and Extreme difficulties. The composition of the opposing team varies depending on the event and the difficulty. The full team consists of herself, Cynthia, Raihan, Leon, and Green. In Cynthia themed events, Korrina and the other non-Cynthia members do not appear in the Casual difficulty, being replaced by {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s. On the Intermediate difficulty, only Leon and Green are replaced by Ace Trainers. In Leon themed events, Korrina and the other non-Leon members do not appear in the Casual difficulty, being replaced by Ace Trainers. On the Intermediate difficulty, only Cynthia and Green are replaced by Ace Trainers. In this mode, Korrina and her Lucario never use [[Holowear]].

Unlike other Trainers in this game, Korrina and the non-Ace Trainer members of her team are represented with two-dimensional artwork instead of three-dimensional models. In the pre-battle splash screen, Korrina has a custom Unite Snapshot depicting her and her Lucario with two dimensional artwork (the normal display of the Unite License/Holowear is not used). This means her [[List of items in Pokémon UNITE#Battle Items|Battle Item]] is not shown. However, she uses [[Eject Button]].

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Viola Korrina Adventures.png|thumb|right|250px|Korrina in Pokémon Adventures]]
Korrina debuted in ''[[PS556|Lucky Lucario Was Here]]''. She first appeared in [[Santalune City]] after being called there by [[Viola]]. As soon as she arrived, she helped {{adv|X}} defeat [[Celosia]], a [[Team Flare]] scientist, and retrieve a [[Kangaskhanite]] she stole. Later, Korrina gave {{adv|Tierno}} a pair of [[Roller Skates]] as a gift. Upon learning X received his [[Mega Ring]] without the proper succession ceremony, Korrina refused to acknowledge X as a true Mega Evolution Successor and angrily left without telling him more about it.

In ''[[PS560|Trevenant Pokes]]'', Korrina returned to the [[Tower of Mastery]], where she demanded that [[Gurkinn]] explain why he gave X a Mega Ring. Before Gurkinn could answer, the tower was attacked by a {{p|Trevenant}} used by [[Emma|Essentia]], another Team Flare member. Korrina and Gurkinn fought the villain, only for Essentia to reveal she was distracting them while her Trevenant covered the tower in vines, trapping them inside. In order to prevent the secrets of Mega Evolution from falling into the wrong hands, Korrina reluctantly helped Gurkinn activate the Tower of Mastery's self-destruct mechanism, destroying the building and allowing them to escape.

In ''[[PS568|Connecting with Gardevoir]]'', Korrina met [[Diantha]], one of Gurkinn's students. Diantha led Korrina to a nearby river where they found Gurkinn under attack by [[Chalmers]], a {{tc|Team Flare Admin}}. Once Gurkinn was rescued, he, Korrina, and Diantha used their Mega-Evolved Pokémon to defeat Chalmers. Afterward, Diantha joined Korrina and Gurkinn and they set off to keep the [[Legendary Pokémon]] [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} out of Team Flare's clutches.

In ''[[PS574|Tying Trevenant]]'', Korrina, Gurkinn, and Diantha helped X and his friends fight Team Flare on {{rt|9|Kalos}} to stop them from taking Xerneas's tree form. Gurkinn helped X take on Essentia, Diantha was challenged by [[Malva]], while Korrina went ahead to keep Celosia from transporting Xerneas to [[Team Flare Secret HQ|Team Flare's base]]. After a tough battle, Korrina's {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}} defeated Celosia's {{p|Aegislash}}, but fainted from exhaustion afterward. As she confidently proclaimed victory, Korrina failed to notice Celosia's lurking behind her and launching an attack. Later, X and his friends found Korrina's unconsciouus body, where they learned that Celosia successfully took Xerneas as well as taking the [[Key Stone]] in Korrina's Mega Glove.

In ''[[PS577|Quilladin Stands]]'', Korrina was taken to a hospital in [[Laverre City]] to recover from her injuries. In ''[[PS594|Floette Returns]]'', three months after Team Flare's defeat, Korrina was revealed to have fully recuperated. X was asked by Korrina to come to [[Shalour City]] to become an official Mega Evolution Successor. Once X arrived at the city, however, Korrina was upset to see that he did not bring his friends for the succession ceremony. She then had him call for his friends before proceeding with the ceremony.

'''Lysandre''' (Japanese: '''フラダリ''' ''Fuladari''<ref>[https://static.mercdn.net/item/detail/orig/photos/m71414691435_1.jpg?1733128459 "Fuladari & Kaenjishi" Pokémon Center Clear Card merchandise]</ref>) is the boss of [[Team Flare]], the main antagonist of [[Pokémon X and Y]] and a supporting character in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. He is also a descendant of royalty, as well as a philanthropist and the owner of [[Lysandre Labs]], the company that created the [[Holo Caster]]. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} '''Team Flare Boss''' (Japanese: '''フレアだんボス''' ''Flare Gang Boss'').

He originally sought to use the [[ultimate weapon]] to reduce the {{pkmn|world|world}} population in order to return the planet to a more "beautiful", unspoiled state; what he implies to be a world without 'negative' or 'ugly' concepts, such as strife, struggle, war, or despair.<ref name="Pokémon.com 2017-11-02">Lysandre is the boss of Team Flare, the villainous organization that appeared in ''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y''. He is, by nature, a man of deep sympathies—but has been driven to despair by watching humans fighting and struggling against one another, and he comes to believe that the only way for people to live in beauty, without strife or struggle, is by reducing the number of people living in the world. He restored the ultimate weapon, which had been sealed away 3000 years earlier, and then, using the power of the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas or Yveltal, he attempted to eradicate life.</ref>

After being saved from a near-death experience by [[Zygarde (Pokémon)|Zygarde]], who had protected all living beings from the firing of the ultimate weapon in X and Y, Lysandre lost most of his memories and took on the moniker '''L''' (Japanese: '''Ｆ''' ''F''), now working alongside Zygarde to restore its powers and save [[Lumiose City]].

==In the core series games==
===Appearance===
====Pokémon X and Y====
Lysandre is a tall, well-built man with light skin and blue eyes. He has [[#Hair|long spiky orange hair]] and a beard.

He wears a red shirt with a cravat beneath his black jacket, which has a white fur collar. The jacket has a single-button cuffs, red side stripes and front flap pockets with red contrast trim. His black pants also have red side stripes and back welt pockets with red contrast trim. He wears black shoes and black fingerless gloves on his hands. On his left hand, he wears a [[Key Stone#Gallery|Mega Ring]] with the Team Flare insignia engraved on its sides, which he wears on his middle finger.

In the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], Lysandre appears with a cybernetic apparatus called the '''Lysandre Machine'''. The apparatus consists of a bronze, beetle-like gauntlet worn on his right arm, a gray mechanical backpack and three flying insect-like devices connected to the backpack by cables. He also wears an orange visor similar to those worn by Team Flare scientists.
====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
After Lysandre survived the activation of the [[ultimate weapon]] in X and Y, he reappeared five years later. Due to his close exposure to the ultimate weapon, his lifespan was extended by three thousand years, similar to [[AZ]]'s. His left eye was seemingly blinded, taking on an unnatural glow, which he only opened during battle. His hair turned white and became shorter, and his beard is white with orange streaks, reminiscent of his original hair color.

His outfit appears worn. He wears a black hooded jacket with a fur collar. On the jacket's elbows are red stitched patches, with the right patch shaped like a Y. Beneath the jacket, he wears a gray shirt with red buttons and under that, a red hoodie whose hood is stitched down the middle. His pants are gray with red stitched patches on the knees, with the left patch shaped like an X. He also wears red socks and black shoes. Lysandre still keeps his Mega Ring with him however, he no longer wears it on his hand.

=== History ===

==== Background ====
Lysandre is descended from Kalos royalty and old friends with [[Professor Sycamore]].<ref>'''Professor Sycamore:''' ''"Actually, Lysandre himself is of royal ancestry... He truly is a chosen one."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> As the rich owner of a technology company, Lysandre was a philanthropist who often made donations to better the world.<ref>'''Professor Sycamore:''' ''"Lysandre is a great man. He supports Trainers and Pokémon research with some of the profit from the Holo Caster."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> One of the people he helped was a young [[Corbeau]], who would come to idolize Lysandre for his generosity. Lysandre formed an organization called [[Team Flare]] to serve as a place for people to come together and help one another, as seen when [[Grisham]] and [[Griselle]] joined the organization in their youth. As time went on, Lysandre witnessed the ugliness of people and the world, and found that his charities and donations were not doing as much good as he had hoped. He gradually turned into a misanthrope who saw no hope for the future because of human "foolishness".<ref>'''Lysandre:''' ''I tried to save people--and the world--with the profit from this lab. But my efforts had no effect... The world was just too vast...and too full of fools that I couldn't save through my hard work alone."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> He would come to blame the expanding human population for this, deciding that conflict came from people being unable to share limited resources.<ref>'''Lysandre:''' ''"When there is only one of something, it can't be shared. When something can't be shared, it will be fought over. And when something is fought over, some must survive without it. The only way to create a world where people live in beauty, a world without conflict or theft, is to reduce the number of living things."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> Lysandre is also one of the few who knows where the ultimate weapon was buried, thanks to his ancestor who buried it in the first place. He also transformed Team Flare from a peaceful organization into a villainous group dedicated to creating a more "beautiful and better" world. To accomplish this, he needed both the ultimate weapon, and financial support, which involved eliminating anyone who opposed his vision for the new world he intended to create.

==== {{g|X and Y}} ====
[[File:Lysandre meeting Player XY.png|thumb|250px|left|Lysandre meeting the player at Sycamore's lab]]
The player first meets Lysandre in [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab in [[Lumiose City]] seeing potential in them, and then later in Café Soleil where he is seen talking to [[Diantha]] about her acting career. He discusses with her about the idea of eternal beauty, but she quickly dismisses the idea, claiming that she does not look for such a thing, much to Lysandre's annoyance. After this, he spots the player, where he speaks about his dream of a beautiful world.

Following this, Lysandre doesn't reappear until much later, after the player has defeated [[Clemont]] for their fifth Badge. This time, he speaks about the [[AZ|king of Kalos]] who nearly vaporized all life in the region 3,000 years ago by usage of a weapon. He also speaks about Xerneas's{{sup/6|X}}/Yveltal's{{sup/6|Y}} role in the creation of the [[ultimate weapon]], as well as their role in the creation of life and destruction as a whole. After this, Lysandre will regularly communicate with the player through the [[Holo Caster]], monitoring their progress, and constantly showing his vision for a beautiful world as well as asking them to reconsider his proposal and join him on his cause.

Lysandre then appears after the player has received their seventh Badge. At this point, it is revealed through his Holo Caster message that he is the leader of [[Team Flare]], and that he plans to use the weapon which he spoke about earlier in order to eliminate anyone not part of Team Flare, surprising both the player and their neighbor. The player later confronts Lysandre in person at the lab beneath his café. He wishes to test the player's resolve, and is then battled and defeated. Admiring the player's resolve and strength, he instructs them that if they wish to stop him, he must get the elevator key from one of Team Flare's four scientists the player already met, while he retreats underground.

After the player obtains the Key and descends further into the lab, they meet with Lysandre who is speaking with a tall man behind bars known as AZ. Lysandre introduces AZ as someone who "shares the name of the previous King of Kalos", and the carrier the key of the ultimate weapon. After AZ tells the player the tragedy left by the ultimate weapon and asks them to stop the device from being used, Lysandre invites the player deeper underground if they wish to stop him. The player descends and meets Lysandre talking with [[Xerosic]]. Lysandre then tells the player to battle Xerosic, and if they are successful against the scientist, then they will stop their scheme. After the player defeats Xerosic, he has them push one of two buttons, one of which activates the weapon. However, pushing the correct one unfortunately does not stop Xerosic from unleashing the weapon on Kalos. (If the player chooses the blue button he will activate the weapon by remote control, otherwise the player activates the weapon.)

Lysandre is later found again at the site of the ultimate weapon in [[Geosenge Town]], where the player's rival questions him about his extreme measures to fix the world. He replies that those measures are the only possible solution because he thinks humans are inherently evil and greedy. He uses the analogy of them competing over their [[Mega Ring]] as an example that when something cannot be shared, people will fight for it, and some will be forced to live without it. As such, more tragedies are likely to happen, and, the only solution is to reduce the human population. When further questioned about Pokémon, he tearfully claims that Pokémon, while magnificent beings, are condemned to be used by humans as tools for war and theft. Therefore, he believes that Pokémon, for the greater good, are best annihilated.

He is battled again, as he simply seeks to stall for time against the player. The player defeats Lysandre once again, and he shows further admiration for the player's strength. He then challenges the player to travel deeper into the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] to stop the weapon, despite his belief that it is already too late, but multiple members of Team Flare are waiting in ambush on the lower floors. After defeating them, the player reaches Xerneas or Yveltal. The legendary Pokémon is then battled and caught by the player, seemingly disabling the weapon. Lysandre returns wearing the Lysandre Machine, which is intended to drain Xerneas's{{sup/6|X}}/Yveltal's{{sup/6|Y}} energy back into the Ultimate Weapon, and he declares that he will take the legendary Pokémon back and complete his plan. Now wielding a Mega Ring of his own, he engages the player in a final battle.
[[File:Lysandre Loses XY.png|frame|Lysandre losing to the player]]
After being defeated for the third and final time, Lysandre expresses his disgust towards the fact that his beautiful world will never be a reality. The player and their friends attempt to reason with him, saying that if people cooperate together, a better world is possible, and they use the Mega Evolution achieved by him as proof of the bond he has with his Pokémon. He, however, rejects the idea as mere naivety and then attempts to 'force immortality on the player, their friends, and himself'{{sup/6|X}}/'kill everyone in the building'{{sup/6|Y}} and fires the ultimate weapon using what little power still remains. Hearing this, the player and their friends quickly leave, after which the blast from the weapon destroys the building and seemingly buries Lysandre and the HQ under rubble, putting an end to Team Flare's threat.

Later on in the game, an NPC in [[Snowbelle City]] who is an old friend of Lysandre mentions that Lysandre had noble intentions and did his best to help people in need, but was eventually convinced of humanity's stupidity, along with his own limitations which resulted in him becoming a misanthrope.

As revealed in {{G|Legends: Z-A}}, Lysandre survived his supposed demise in Pokémon X and Y thanks to {{Ga|Zygarde}}, but lost much of his memory in the process. Due to using the ultimate weapon, his body was altered in a similar way to AZ's, cursing him to live for three thousand years. As Zygarde had exhausted its power at the time, it tasked Lysandre to help it recover its strength in preparation for a [[Ange|future threat]] to Kalos.

==== {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} ====

===== [[Episode RR]] =====
An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Lysandre appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] and one of the second pair of bosses the player must face, along with [[Cyrus]]. Like the other {{cat|villainous team leaders}} in Team Rainbow Rocket, this Lysandre was summoned from a world where his plans succeeded. However, as he explains to the player, a bright light consumed him when he fired the [[ultimate weapon]] and was transported to the game's world. He has his {{tc|Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt}}s set up devices with red and blue buttons in his office within [[Team Rocket's Castle]]. Then, he subjects the player to the same choice the player in Kalos was subjected to, claiming that one button will activate the ultimate weapon and the other will open the path to [[Giovanni]]. However, no matter which button the player chooses, it will be the one that activates the weapon. Lysandre then tells the player that pushing the opposite button will prevent it from firing. However, in order to buy time for the weapon to fire, Lysandre battles the player, using Xerneas{{sup/7|US}}/Yveltal{{sup/7|UM}} as part of his team. When he is defeated, he allows the player to press the other button, ostensibly shutting down the ultimate weapon, as well as unlocking one of the two seals needed to reach Giovanni. Lysandre then wonders if things would have been different in his world if he had met a Trainer like the player. He then rejects that line of thought, resolving that he must bring about his beautiful world. He is later sent back to his own world by [[Colress]] off-screen.

==== {{g|Legends: Z-A}} ====
[[File:ZA L Credits.png|300px|thumb|L as seen in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s [[game credits|credits]]]]
Lysandre first meets the player under the pseudonym of "'''L'''". He warns the player about the coming crisis in Lumiose City and tells them that they must become a Trainer worthy of Zygarde's trust in order to stop it. Later on, he helps by gathering nearly all of Zygarde's Cells in order for it to assume its Complete Forme and defeat the rogue machine, [[Ange]].

After the player's first reward match in the Infinite [[Z-A Royale]], L comes to [[Hotel Z]] to speak with them about AZ, telling them about how the two had talked about the agony of being unable to die and about AZ's good and heinous deeds, including Ange. L surmises that Ange's influence resulted in more wild Pokémon gathering throughout Lumiose, wondering if it is right that people and Pokémon are kept at arm's length of each other with the city's holo-tech barriers. He wonders if people will find another way, stating that he looks forward to seeing what the people of Lumiose choose. L then explains that more of his memory returned following his conversation with the player in Lysandre Labs, having recalled the existence of Xerneas and Yveltal. He also informs them that since Ange was destroyed, Zygarde has not shown itself, likely due to it having exhausted its power and retreated somewhere to quietly recover. L requests the player to find Xerneas and Yveltal.

After the player catches Xerneas and Yveltal, L appears before the player outside Hotel Z. He explains that he knows that he tried to give too much to the world in the past, and because his good deeds saw no reward, he wallowed in despair and resentment and decided to take everything for himself instead. He explains how Zygarde seeks to correct excess and restore balance to the world, believing that to be the reason Zygarde rescued him. L then challenges the player to a battle. Reflecting on his mistakes, L expresses regret over having fired the ultimate weapon, and later escorts the player to the ruins of [[Prism Tower]] so that they can battle and catch Zygarde. L entrusts Zygarde to the player and gives them the [[Zygarde Cube]] to change its form. Declaring that he still wishes to create a more beautiful world, L nonetheless admits that his methods were flawed, and thus he sets off with the resolve to find a better way to realize his dreams.

Further information on Lysandre and Team Flare's original plan is disclosed during the player's visit to the ruins of Lysandre Labs. It is revealed that five years earlier, as Team Flare was preparing to execute Lysandre's agenda, he initially envisioned using both Ange and the ultimate weapon at the same time. However, because AZ's missing {{p|Floette}} was required to activate Ange, Lysandre could not do so, and he was forced to settle for using only the ultimate weapon.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
====History====
=====Pre-series=====
As revealed in ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', Lysandre, much like in the games, once had a generous nature and would help those in need. However, after those he supported grew accustomed to his aid and turned greedy, he became disillusioned with the human race, and decided to "restart" the world by wiping out most of its population.

=====[[Mega Evolution Specials]]=====
[[File:Lysandre anime.png|thumb|250px|Lysandre in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'']]
Lysandre debuted in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]''. Though he was not identified as the caller at the time, he contacted [[Alain]] via the [[Holo Caster]], directing him to where a new Mega Stone could be found. He was also seen observing the power of Alain's Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X during its battle with [[Siebold]]'s Mega {{p|Blastoise}}.
[[File:Team Flare Scientists Young.png|thumb|left|250px|A younger Lysandre]]
In ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', Lysandre traveled to [[Hoenn]], intervened in Alain's battle with {{Steven}}, and introduced Alain and Steven properly to each other. It was revealed that in the past, he defeated Alain in a battle over an [[Ampharosite]], then took Alain to [[Lysandre Labs]] and recruited him to work in a project to harness the energy of Mega Evolution for peaceful purposes. Lysandre was also the one who awarded Alain his Mega Ring and Charizardite X, though he asked Alain not to tell Professor Sycamore of the research, fearing that people with bad intentions would bring harm to him in order to obtain it. Later, he traveled with Alain, [[Mairin]], and Steven to a ruin, where they uncovered an ancient [[Giant Rock]]. However, his research on the Giant Rock accidentally summoned {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Rayquaza}}, who destroyed the area. After the encounter with Rayquaza, Lysandre discovered a similar energy reading to the Giant Rock near [[Rustboro City]], and asked Alain to go there and investigate. He also covertly ordered Alain to keep a close eye on Steven, for the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}} had precious information on Mega Evolution.

In ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', Lysandre gave instructions to Alain and Steven. After Mega Rayquaza defeated both [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Groudon}} and Primal {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Kyogre}}, he had the Giant Rock, which had reappeared during the battle of the Legendary Pokémon, taken away with his submarine for further studies.

In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', Lysandre observed Alain's battles against ten Mega Evolution Trainers while his scientists researched the Giant Rock. After [[Chespie]], Mairin's {{p|Chespin}}, who had interfered with the experiments performed on a {{p|Zygarde}} Core, was hospitalized, Lysandre told the victorious Alain that he had to continue gather data on Mega Evolution if Chespie was to recover. He was also shown to be close to Malva, who served as Alain's final opponent.

====={{aniseries|XY}}=====
Lysandre has a major antagonistic role in [[S19|Pokémon the Series: XYZ]], first making appearances in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'' and ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', where he was studying [[Squishy]] alongside [[Xerosic]].

In ''[[XY106|A Meeting of Two Journeys!]]'', Lysandre was contacted by Alain via the Holo Caster, who wanted to know if Mairin's Chespie's condition had improved or not. Later, he reappeared in [[XY107|the next episode]], overseeing the operation to capture [[Z2]] alongside Xerosic. At the end of the episode, he received Z2.

Lysandre reappeared in ''[[XY118|Championing a Research Battle!]]'' and ''[[XY119|A Full-Strength Battle Surprise!]]'', where he received mission reports from Xerosic.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', Lysandre was talking to a man inside a building at the [[Lumiose Conference]]. He soon got a call on a Holo Caster that an {{tc|Team Flare Admin|Admin}} was holding, from Xerosic, who was in the front seat of a truck that was just outside the [[Lumiose Gym]]. Later on at night, he met {{Ash}} for the first time and discussed the capability of [[Ash's Greninja]] to take on its different form in battle. After his conversation with him, he was shown with an annoyed expression, before turning towards the Lumiose Gym and smirked. Lysandre later talked to Mairin after she ran up to him and he put on a happy expression. The next day, Lysandre was seated in a private viewing box inside the Lumiose Conference's stadium with a glass window, along with Mairin and the same Admin, and they all watched as Ash and Alain each walked towards their respective sides of the battlefield in the Lumiose Conference's stadium, for the final round of the Conference.
[[File:Lysandre Machine anime.png|thumb|250px|Wearing the Lysandre Machine in Pokémon the Series: XYZ]]
In ''[[XY130|Finals Not for the Faint-Hearted!]]'' and ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre watched Ash and Alain's battle in the finals of the Lumiose Conference. Towards the end of the latter episode, his true egotistical, narcissistic nature is revealed as he uses the power of Z2 to bring the whole of Kalos into his control, taking over Lumiose City and subsequently the Lumiose Conference, which had just been concluded.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre revealed himself as the leader of Team Flare to a captured Ash. He also televised a message to the citizens of Kalos about his plan for creating a new, beautiful world for Team Flare.

In ''Coming Apart at the Dreams!'', Lysandre explained his motivations and attempted to control Ash and Greninja the same way he did with Zygarde, so that Ash could become the guide of the new world. Ash, however, defied Lysandre and used the [[Bond Phenomenon]] to break free. Following this turn of events, Lysandre equipped his machine and started a fight with Ash and the defecting Alain using his Pyroar and his Shiny Mega Gyarados. Pyroar was defeated through a joint attack by {{AP|Noivern}}, {{AP|Hawlucha}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}}.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Lysandre defeated the majority of Ash's team. He was surprised when Malva appeared to help Alain and Ash, but nonetheless remained confident even after Clemont and Bonnie freed the two Zygarde under his control.

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', Lysandre was finally beaten by Ash and Alain. Refusing to surrender, Lysandre seemingly killed himself by jumping off the tower. It was afterwards revealed that Lysandre had planned for the Giant Rock to transform into a copy of Zygarde, which would engulf the [[Anistar City]] Sundial and release enough energy to wipe out all life on the planet.

He made one final appearance in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]''. After the Giant Rock was temporarily stopped by Ash, Alain, Steven, Malva, [[Diantha]], and all of the Kalos [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Chespie]] was freed from it's control, Lysandre appears and revives the Giant Rock himself using a control device, announcing he still intends to destroy the world even if it means he has to die too. He lost control of the Rock after the device was destroyed by Ash and Alain, and was defeated entirely by Squishy and Z2 after they transformed into Zygarde Complete Forme and destroyed the Giant Rock. The explosion from Zygarde's {{m|Core Enforcer}} engulfs Lysandre, leaving his final fate unclear.

He was later seen discussing with [[Diantha]] about the concept of eternal beauty. Afterwards, he was interviewed by some reporters over his involvement with some secret plans, but he didn't reveal any information. Lysandre was then seen at the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], conducting experiments on {{p|Yveltal}} in the hopes of creating a more beautiful world.

After being easily defeated, he briefly recalled his conversations with [[Professor Sycamore]] and [[Diantha]] about mortality and beauty. He then fired the [[ultimate weapon]] in an attempt to force immortality on himself, Calem, {{ga|Serena}}, and [[Shauna]]. The weapon fired as the Trainers escaped, leaving his fate unknown.

[[File:Lysandre Machine Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Lysandre wearing the Lysandre Machine in Pokémon Adventures]]
====={{MangaArc|X & Y}}=====
Lysandre debuted in ''[[PS552|They Have a Flare for a Li'l Kanga-Napping]]''. He was first seen in [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab, watching a video of the battle between [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} in [[Vaniville Town]]. He then asked for a copy of the footage for further study.

In ''[[PS558|What Does Charmander Do When It Dozes]]'', Professor Sycamore sent {{adv|Trevor}} and his friends to [[Lysandre Labs|Lysandre Café]] to get repairs for Trevor's [[Holo Caster]]. The group was introduced to Lysandre, but Trevor became suspicious of the man after seeing his silhouette in a photo taken during the Vaniville incident. Noting Trevor's strange behavior, Lysandre asked to see the photo, even using his Pokémon to surround the group when Trevor refused. [[Diantha]] arrived and used her [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} to defend Trevor's group. Lysandre backed off and left to answer a call from [[Xerosic]], who had discovered the location of Xerneas's tree form.

In ''[[PS577|Quilladin Stands]]'', Lysandre returned to the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] after Xerneas's tree form had been successfully transported. He received the Lysandre Machine, which [[Clemont]] was forced to build, and a Mega Ring, which had its [[Key Stone]] stolen from [[Korrina]]. Lysandre and Xerosic began draining Xerneas of its life energy to fuel the [[ultimate weapon]]. {{adv|X}} later broke into the building to put an end to [[Team Flare]]'s ambitions. He found the ultimate weapon's control room and confronted Lysandre, who used his Mega Ring to Mega Evolve his {{p|Gyarados}}. During their battle, X had his [[Élec]] use its {{a|Lightning Rod}} to pull electricity from the ultimate weapon's absorber into its tail, draining the machine of its power. This allowed Xerneas to awaken from its slumber and revert back to normal.

In ''[[PS580|Flabébé Blooms]]'', Trevor, {{adv|Tierno}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, [[Clemont]], [[Emma]], and [[AZ]] arrived at the control room, where they found X had already been defeated. Trevor, Tierno, and Shauna tried removing the ultimate weapon's key but were unable to pull it out in time before it fired. To Lysandre's frustration, the combined efforts of X and his friends successfully weakened the ultimate weapon, preventing it from taking any innocent lives. AZ stayed behind to allow Xerneas to escape back to the surface with X and the others. When Malva attempted to confront X's group with Yveltal, Lysandre ordered a ceasefire due to it and Xerneas being evenly matched. Xerneas confirmed this and retreated, taking X and the others with it.

In ''[[PS582|Pinsir Glares]]'', Team Flare was revealed to have blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on X's friends and the Gym Leaders. They moved operations to the [[Pokémon Village]] to keep a low profile. When Xerosic later discovered the stones lining {{rt|10|Kalos}} are an older form of the absorber, Team Flare began using them to drain the life energy of the Pokémon living at the village. These actions earned Team Flare the anger of {{adv|Mewtwo}}, who protected the Pokémon Village. In ''[[PS590|Yveltal Steals]]'', X and {{adv|Blue}} found Lysandre in battle with Mewtwo at the village. Hoping to have Mewtwo weakened enough for capture, Lysandre tried to trick it into attacking X and Blue, only for {{adv|Blaine}} to arrive and Mega Evolve Mewtwo into its Y form.

In ''[[PS591|Mewtwo Angered]]'', Lysandre summoned [[Emma|Essentia]] and used a device to control her like a puppet. By talking into the device, Essentia would repeat Lysandre's words, allowing him to command the {{adv|Zygarde}} she had caught earlier. While Blaine and Mewtwo kept Zygarde still, X defeated Essentia, uncovering her true identity as his friend Emma. With some words of encouragement from X and [[Cassius]], Emma betrayed Lysandre, but was attacked by his Gyarados before she could command Zygarde. Lysandre took Zygarde's [[Poké Ball]], only for {{adv|Y}} to arrive and take his Mega Ring. Although he was angered by this, Lysandre made an announcement to the entire Kalos region, informing the public of Team Flare's plan to destroy everything with the ultimate weapon. By borrowing Key Stones from his allies, X was able to activate Mega Evolution for his entire team at once.

In ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', Lysandre used Zygarde to battle X's Mega-Evolved team. As the battle went on, X's friends noticed Zygarde's body was breaking apart due to Xerneas and Yveltal reverting to their tree and cocoon forms. Once they fully reverted, X had his team launch one final attack, fully separating Zygarde. Malva attempted to save Lysandre from falling, only for both to land onto the rubble below. Heavily injured, Lysandre weakly asked Malva why the ultimate weapon had not yet been fired. Afterward, Blaine revealed Lysandre was alive, but had sustained severe injuries to his spinal cord.

Lysandre reappeared in a flashback as a silhouette when Sina and Dexio were explaining Zygarde's presence in Alola.

He was first seen with his Trainer in Lysandre Café, where he was used to scare Trevor into giving up a picture that was taken in [[Vaniville Town]]. He was stopped by [[Diantha]], who had her {{p|Gardevoir}} Mega Evolve to make him back off. At Team Flare Secret HQ, he was used to battle against X to stop him from interrupting Lysandre's plan. At the Pokémon Village, he was used to fight against Mewtwo, but was later knocked out by Zygarde's Land's Wrath. He is level 45 and has a Bold nature.

Mienfoo's only known move is {{m|Dual Chop}}{{tt|*|mentioned and used off-panel}} and his Ability is {{a|Inner Focus}}.}}

|desc={{p|Zygarde}}, also known as Kalos's "Overseer" (Japanese: '''監視者''' ''Watcher''), was captured by Essentia in [[Anistar City]]. At the Pokémon Village, Lysandre controlled Essentia so that he may use Zygarde to battle against X, {{adv|Blue}}, and Blaine. After Emma was freed from Lysandre's control, Lysandre had Gyarados attack Emma so that he may take Zygarde's Poké Ball, giving him full control over it. Once [[Xerxer]] and {{p|Yveltal}} reverted to their dormant forms, Zygarde had no reason to stay, so its body began breaking apart. X's Mega-Evolved team used a combined attack to fully break apart Zygarde, leading to Lysandre's defeat.}}

==Trivia==
[[File:Parfum Palace Portrait.png|thumb|200px|Portrait of one of Lysandre's ancestors]]
* Both [[Parfum Palace]] and the [[Lumiose Museum]] contain a painting of the king who built the palace. It's revealed in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} that the aforementioned king was suspected to be a descendant of [[AZ]]'s younger brother, and by extension, an ancestor of Lysandre.
** Additionally, the Lysandre Machine bears a striking resemblance to the bug-shaped accessory worn by the king.
* Lysandre shares three Pokémon with [[Cyrus]], another leader of a [[Team Galactic|villainous team]]: {{p|Murkrow}}, {{p|Honchkrow}}, and {{p|Gyarados}}. Their goals are also similar; both involve trying to wipe out everyone for some purpose and using [[Legendary Pokémon]] to achieve it.
** [[Xerosic]] and [[Mable]], two of his top scientists, possess a {{p|Crobat}} and a {{p|Houndoom}} and {{p|Weavile}}, respectively; all Pokémon that Cyrus had.
* In {{aniseries|PTS}}, the Lysandre Machine's functions are different: the "bugs" attached to the backpack piece are able to shoot beams of Mega Evolution energy, while the gauntlet is used to control the [[Giant Rock]]. Additionally, the pieces of the suit are capable of flight and can carry Lysandre into the air while he is wearing them.
* Lysandre's Gyarados knows {{m|Iron Head}} and {{m|Outrage}}, which it cannot learn in {{g|X and Y}}. The only way for Gyarados to know these moves in Pokémon X and Y is through [[Move Tutor]]s in {{v2|Platinum}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and {{2v2|Black|White|2}} before being transferred through [[Pokémon Bank]], or through a Move Tutor in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the latter of which wasn't available at the time of X and Y's release.
* The background story of Lysandre told by an NPC in Snowbelle City is similar to the manga ''{{wp|Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind}}'', where a king, who wants to save humanity and wanting peace for his peasants, eventually realizes their stupidity and grows to hate them, eventually becoming a tyrant.
* Lysandre's hairstyle was stylized to somewhat resemble a [[List of Pokémon with gender differences#Pyroar|male]] {{p|Pyroar}}'s mane, one of his Pokémon.
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader to debut in a special episode of the {{pkmn|animated series}}, and also the first to have a [[Shiny Pokémon]].
** In ''Pokémon the Series'', Lysandre is not Professor Sycamore's former pupil. Instead, the two only meet for the first time during the events of the {{aniseries|XY|''XY'' series}} special, ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''.
* When Lysandre is defeated for the last time in X and Y, the {{player}} performs a unique victory pose.
* Lysandre's visor can be seen on his desk in [[Team Rocket's Castle]], though he does not wear it at any point as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]].
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader in the [[core series]] who never wears his team's insignia on his clothing.
** He is also the only member of Team Flare who does not regularly wear any sort of eyewear, however he does wear a visor when using the Lysandre Machine.
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader in ''Pokémon the Series'' whom {{Ash}} defeated in a battle.
** He was also the first villainous team leader in the animated series since {{an|Giovanni}} to be shown to use Pokémon of his own, instead of just controlling one or more Legendary Pokémon.

'''Lana''' (Japanese: '''スイレン''' ''Suiren'') is the [[Trial Captain|captain]] of [[Akala Island]]'s [[Brooklet Hill]]. She is described as an expert with {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} who is dedicated to her family and a reliable older sister who watches over her younger sisters.

==In the core series games==
Lana appears in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}} as the captain of the [[Island challenge|trial]] of [[Brooklet Hill]]. In her trial, Lana asks the {{player}} to investigate a series of phenomena in the hill's waters using their new [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]], {{p|Lapras}}. At the end, they must defeat a powerful sea-going [[Totem Pokémon]], a {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Wishiwashi|School Form}} {{p|Wishiwashi}}{{sup/7|SM}}/an {{p|Araquanid}}{{sup/7|USUM}}. She later appears near the end of [[Mallow]]'s trial with [[Kiawe]], providing supplies that prove necessary to lure in the Totem {{p|Lurantis}}.

After defeating [[Olivia]]{{sup/7|SM}}/becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}{{sup/7|USUM}}, the player can visit Lana's twin sisters, [[Harper and Sarah]], in her home in [[Konikoni City]], who ask to play with them by battling them in a [[Double Battle]]. After defeating them, Lana arrives, and is goaded into battling the player by her siblings. The battle takes place back in Brooklet Hill, where Lana will use a [[Z-Ring]]{{sup/7|SM}}/[[Z-Power Ring]]{{sup/7|USUM}} along with a [[Waterium Z]] attached to her Araquanid.

In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon only, Lana also appears with Mallow at [[Lush Jungle]] during [[Mina]]'s trial. She will give the player a [[Blue Petal]] as a part of the trial, although the player must defeat her{{sup/7|UM}}/Mallow{{sup/7|US}} first. Afterwards, she and Mallow will offer to escort the player to [[Wela Volcano Park]] to meet [[Kiawe]] and get the next petal from him.

Lana's Pokémon are kept in [[Net Ball]]s.

[[File:Lana Adventures.png|thumb|170px|Lana in Pokémon Adventures]]
[[File:Lana angry Adventures.png|thumb|left|170px|Lana in her "battle mode"]]
Lana debuted in the ''[[PASM08|Going Ashore and Neighboring Akala Island]]''. She, Mallow, and Kiawe traveled to [[Heahea City]] to meet {{adv|Sun}}, a boy approved to take part in the [[island challenge]]. Curious about whether or not Sun was worthy enough to do the island challenge, Kiawe challenged him to a short battle. Though the match ended without a winner, Kiawe bonded with Sun and accepted him as a trialgoer. Lana was still reluctant and told the others to follow her to [[Brooklet Hill]].

In ''[[PASM09|True Identity and the Totem Pokémon of Brooklet Hill]]'', Lana gave Sun the task of defeating the [[Totem Pokémon]] causing havoc at Brooklet Hill. Later, Lana watched Sun battled the totem, a {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Wishiwashi|School Form}} {{p|Wishiwashi}}. Due to having befriended Wishiwashi earlier, Sun was reluctant to fight it. This angered Lana, who compared it to herself and pointed out that despite appearances, Wishiwashi was strong and didn't need to be protected. Listening to Lana's advice, Sun stopped holding back and defeated the totem, successfully completing his first trial.

In ''[[PASM11|Homecoming and the Brilliant Professional Golfer]]'', Lana and Sun were informed by Mallow that Kiawe had been attacked by [[Gladion]]. Lana, Sun, {{adv|Moon}}, and Mallow went to [[Memorial Hill]], where they found an injured Kiawe. When a group of {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s appeared, Lana and Mallow stayed behind to battle them while the others went to protect {{p|Tapu Lele}} from Gladion. After the Grunts were defeated, Lana and Mallow reunited with the others after they successfully helped Tapu Lele.

In ''[[PASM14|Flash and Cosmog's Secret]]'', Lana and the others met at Mallow's family restaurant, where they talked to [[Professor Kukui]]'s wife, [[Professor Burnet]], over a video phone. After suspecting [[Team Skull]] may be related to the [[Ultra Wormhole]]s appearing around Alola, Lana suggested infiltrating Team Skull's base in [[Po Town]] to get answers. Mallow and Kiawe reluctantly agreed, but the former suggested asking [[Ilima]] and [[Acerola]] to help them.

In ''[[PASM17|A Raid and Po Town]]'', Lana, Kiawe, Mallow, Acerola, Ilima, and [[Hau]] arrived at Po Town. Their presence alerted Team Skull's boss, [[Guzma]], who demanded to know why his base was being invaded. When the captains revealed they only wanted to talk, Guzma agreed on the condition they made it to him first. He then summoned a {{p|Pheromosa}}, {{p|Celesteela}}, and {{p|Guzzlord}} and had them attack the captains and Hau. Despite their best efforts, Lana and the others were completely outmatched by the rampaging beasts.

In ''[[PASM18|Confusion and Monsters from Another World]]'', Sun arrived at Po Town, only to get caught up in the commotion. Annoyed the captains were still fighting, Guzma revealed a {{p|Cosmog}} and had it open more wormholes. Gladion appeared, demanding to know where Guzma got the Cosmog and Ultra Beasts from. Revealing his true aim is to destroy Ultra Beasts, Gladion battled the beasts Guzma summoned with his {{TP|Gladion|Type: Null}}. To everyone's shock, Gladion also revealed the [[Aether Foundation]]'s president, [[Lusamine]], was the one who gave Guzma Cosmog as part of her plan to create a paradise filled with nothing but Ultra Beasts and herself. Eventually, the beasts broke out of Po Town's barrier, allowing them to wreak havoc on all of [[Ula'ula Island]]. Lana and the other captains headed off to various locations to evacuate any innocent civilians caught in the beasts' attacks.

In ''[[PASM26|Adventure in the Dark Dimension]]'', the captains and [[island kahuna]]s were revealed to have spent six months on [[Exeggutor Island]] {{pkmn|training}} to prepare for another clash with the Ultra Beasts. After their training was finished, [[Sophocles]] and [[Molayne]] took everyone to [[Mount Lanakila]], where a wormhole had opened up earlier. Shortly after they arrived, their ship was attacked by a group of Aether Foundation Employees and their Ultra Beasts. With the [[Z-Moves]] they had acquired, Lana and the others managed to defeat the Ultra Beasts.

Normally, Lana is very shy and timid, but she takes on a more serious and violent persona when in battle. Kiawe refers to this transformation as Lana's (Japanese: '''バトルモード''' ''battle mode''). According to Lana, this personality shift actually scares her younger sisters.

Later, it fought an {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}}'s {{p|Blacephalon}} and won with the help of a [[Z-Move]].

'''Lida''' (Japanese: '''デウロ''' ''Duro'') is a [[friend]] character introduced in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}. She is a member of [[Team MZ]], which she joined in exchange for lodging. She is a dance school student who came to [[Lumiose City]] seeking to become a professional dancer. She mainly uses [[Water (type)|Water-type]] Pokémon.

Her partner Pokémon is {{p|Staryu}}, which later [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Starmie}}.

==In the core series games==

===History===

==== Background ====
Lida is the younger half-sister of [[Tierno]], with the same father but different mothers, though she's never met him.<ref name=TiernoConfirmation/> She grew up in the [[Hoenn]] region.<ref name="Hoenn"/> Lida was inspired by her half-brother to become a professional dancer. She got a scholarship to a dance school in [[Lumiose City]], and initially lived in the city with a roommate. Her roommate signed on with a talent agency and moved out, leaving Lida worrying about how to pay her rent alone. It was then that Lida met [[Urbain]]/[[Taunie]], who invited her to join [[Team MZ]], and [[AZ]] allowed her to stay at [[Hotel Z]].

==== Pokémon Legends: Z-A ====
During [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Main Mission 25: A Showdown on the Battle Court]], Lida is given a [[Mega Ring]] and a [[Starminite]] by AZ.

===Pokémon===
Lida keeps her Pokémon in [[Dive Ball]]s.

==Trivia==
* Lida's relation to [[Tierno]] is heavily implied before it was officially confirmed, through their many shared traits:
** They both possess a strong interest in dancing, their hairstyles feature dark hair styled into three upward-pointing strands.
** Their partner Pokémon, {{p|Staryu}} and {{p|Corphish}}, are {{t|Water}} [[type]]s that gain a secondary type upon evolving.
** Lida's {{p|Clawitzer}} could be seen as a counterpart to Tierno's {{p|Crawdaunt}}, as both are crustacean Pokémon.
** Their names suggest a thematic contrast: Lida's name in various languages is derived from words meaning "hard" or "rough", while Tierno's name likely comes from a word meaning "tender".
** Lida having the {{p|Vanillite}} line may refer to Tierno's shirt, which features a Vanillite.
** Lida's battle pose is the same one Tierno does in X and Y.
*Lida and Tierno are the first characters in the series to be related who are confirmed to be half siblings rather than full siblings.
**They are also the only siblings to have never met each other.
* The [[Lida's Things|small pouch]] that Lida uses to carry her items during dance practice was handmade by [[Naveen]].
* In Japanese, Lida speaks in the {{wp|Kagoshima dialect}} while sleeptalking, which is spoken in the {{wp|Kagoshima Prefecture}} in {{wp|Kyushu}}. This parallels the fact that she is from the [[Hoenn]] region, which is partly based on Kyushu.
** Lida's partner Pokémon is her Staryu, which in Hoenn can only be found in [[Lilycove City]]. Lilycove City's location in Hoenn corresponds to the Kagoshima Prefecture.
** In the traditional Chinese localization, she speaks in a variety of Chinese that resembles {{wp|Cantonese}} or {{wp|Hakka Chinese|Hakka}}. In the simplified Chinese localization, she speaks in {{wp|Sichuanese dialects|Sichuanese Mandarin}}.

She, along with the player, is enrolled in the {{wp|general studies|general studies}} track of the [[Naranja Academy|Naranja]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy|Uva]]{{sup/9|V}} Academy, with her homeroom teacher being [[Jacq]]. Due to her love for battles, Nemona tries to squeeze in a battle at every moment she gets, and strives to have someone in equals with. Nemona occasionally drops Spanish words or a Spanish accent in her dialect in English, in reference to Paldea being based on the real-world country of {{wp|Spain}}.

Along with the player, who Nemona begins a quick [[friend]]ship with, Nemona also meets [[Arven]] and [[Penny]] over the course of Scarlet and Violet. She does not get along with the other two at first, often misunderstanding their viewpoints and clashing with their interests, but get along by game's end. Nemona has an admiration for stronger trainers, such as [[Geeta]], the strongest member of Paldea's [[Pokémon League]].

Nemona lives in the same hometown of [[Cabo Poco]] as the player, living in the same neighborhood. She is the daughter of one of the [[Rotom Phone]] company's board members, coming from a wealthier family. Her father, mother and older sister all go unnamed. Nemona's Student ID at the academy is 805C001.

===Appearance===
[[File:Violet Nemona concept art.jpg|thumb|250px|Nemona's [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet]] concept art]]
Nemona is a young girl who attends Paldea's academy; due to the school changing based on what version is being played, so does her outfit. Her design otherwise relatively stays the same. Nemona has long black hair with most of it being tied in the back in the form of a ponytail. Three bangs stick out from her forehead, the two larger ones being a shade of green as opposed to her normal black coloring. She has large, angular eyes with orange irises and large black pupils. She has three eyelashes on each eye. Her angular eyebrows are thin and black

She wears a magenta arm brace on her right arm. This arm brace covers her knuckles and stops halfway up to her forearm. The bottom side is black and goes all around her arm up to her bicep. The magenta covering is stopped by a thick white cuff. Her shoes are the same colors as her arm brace, having a white back and soles, the upper half being mostly magenta and the tongue being white and black. She wears all-black leggings that go underneath her school shorts.

Nemona will always wear the summer attire of her school's uniform, sporting a short-sleeved T-shirt and shorts. The T-shirt has the school's emblem on her left sleeve. In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet]], the shirt is all off-white tinted blue, with a collar that goes around the neck, topped with an orange necktie. A singular front pocket on the left side of her chest. Her shorts are orange with lighter orange stripes. These shorts have two pockets on both sides of her legs, with larger pockets underneath that stick out, buttoned together by blue buttons. She has two blue strings on the front of her pants. In Pokémon Violet, her shirt is gray instead and has a purple tie. her shorts also look nearly identical, with the blue buttons and strings being yellow and the pants themselves being completely purple with no pattern.

===Pokémon Scarlet and Violet===
====Background and pre-game====
'''Website blurb:''' ''"Your friend, Nemona, has a sunny and energetic disposition, and she absolutely loves Pokémon battles. She’s an experienced Pokémon Trainer and serves as a reliable guide for you on your adventures. She has undisputed skill in battle—though it does also seem that she’s not the best at throwing Poké Balls."''

Prior to the events of Scarlet and Violet, unlike previous rival and friend characters, Nemona is already a [[Pokémon Trainer]] and a Champion, and implies that she is starting fresh with a new [[party|team]] of Pokémon. She already attends the school that the player will attend to.

====Victory Road====
Nemona is first met in [[Cabo Poco]], where she introduces herself as the player's neighbor. Despite being a {{pkmn|Champion}}-ranked Trainer, she chooses to raise a new Pokémon team alongside the player to be more on their level, choosing the [[first partner Pokémon]] that is weak to the {{player}}'s. After having her first battle with the player, the two set off to the city of [[Mesagoza]] to go to the Academy. The player has a troubling situation with {{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}} on [[Inlet Grotto]], and returns to Nemona. Nemona is glad that the player is safe and brings them to a nearby lighthouse on [[Poco Path]], where they meet [[Arven]], a boy who seems to know about the Pokémon the player has found. After some clashing of heads and explanation of the player's new ride, Nemona escorts them to [[Mesagoza]] through [[Los Platos]] and gives them a tutorial on [[Pokémon Center]]s and the [[Terastal phenomenon]] in front of Mesagoza's doors. Inside the city, Nemona brings them to the school's stairs (which she seems to have a frustration with on account of being too long and steep) where the two of them will be studying. There, they encounter more strangers, [[Team Star]], a group of students who bully other students, and [[Penny]], a shy girl who also seems to butt heads with Nemona.

Once the player starts studying at the academy, Nemona urges them to challenge [[Gym]]s around Paldea so they can challenge the {{pal|Pokémon League}}. Along the way, Nemona will occasionally appear to gauge the player's progress by battling them. Once the player has defeated all 8 of Paldea's Gyms, she becomes excited and awaits their progress at the Pokémon League. Once the player has passed the test and became a Champion-ranked member of the Pokémon league, Nemona is thrilled and wants to battle them immediately. The two of them think on where this champion themed battle should be held, deciding on Megagoza's battlefield in the middle of the city. Nemona loses to the player, but is filled with pride and excitement, happy to have such a fruitful battle against them. She asks for more, hoping the fun never stops.

====The Way Home====
Once the player has passed the Champion Assessment, Nemona will challenge them to one more battle, where she doesn't hold back. After the player has finished Victory Road and the two other stories, She later accompanies the player, [[Arven]], and [[Penny]] on a journey to [[Area Zero]], battling alongside the player as a battle partner to fight against any [[Paradox Pokémon]] they may come across.

In the post-credits story, Nemona participates in the [[Academy Ace Tournament]], although she has to manage the admin work when it is held for the first time, she can be battled as a random opponent in subsequent Academy Ace Tournaments.

====Mochi Mayhem====
Nemona joins Arven and Penny to hang out with the player at their house. Later, they are invited to join the player in visiting [[Kieran]] in [[Kitakami]]. Upon their arrival, Nemona immediately challenges Kieran to a battle, having heard of his former status as BB League Champion, and though she wins handily, she is greatly impressed by his skills. Just then, [[Carmine]] arrives, performing a weird dance and not acting her usual self. Kieran is concerned by his sister's peculiar behavior, though Nemona and the others encourage him to stay positive. That night, Nemona stops by {{DL|Mossui Town|Peachy's}} to buy soda for the group and ends up unwittingly eating {{ga|Pecharunt}}'s toxic mochi before returning to the {{DL|Mossui Town|Community Center}}. During their race to find the remote for the TV display, Nemona eventually falls under Pecharunt's influence and wanders out of the Community Center, heading for [[Kitakami Hall]] and presumably infecting more citizens. The player and Kieran spot her and give chase, only to contend with Kieran's infected [[Yukito and Hideko|grandparents]] instead.

The player and Kieran later confront the controlled Nemona and Pecharunt itself at [[Loyalty Plaza]]. Realizing the player is the only one who can beat Nemona in battle, Kieran decides to back them up by holding off an approaching horde of possessed villagers. Meanwhile, the player fights and defeats Nemona, who retains a modicum of her battle-frenzied personality despite Pecharunt's control. After the player defeats and catches Pecharunt, Nemona and the others are freed from its influence, with Nemona believing her battle with the player to be a "crazy realistic dream" that she would like to have again. After spending some more peaceful time in Kitakami and battling Carmine and Kieran a dozen times each, the player, Nemona and the others return to Paldea.

===Pokémon===
===={{g|Scarlet and Violet}}====
Nemona uses the [[first partner Pokémon]] with a [[type]] disadvantage to the one the player chooses. As shown in the game's opening cutscene, she also owns a Combat Breed {{rf|Paldean}} {{p|Tauros}}. She is never seen using him elsewhere, although she can trade one to the player in [[The Indigo Disk]]. She is also implied to have more Pokémon that are unseen by the player, as she became a Champion prior to her first battle with the player and repeatedly mentions needing to select a perfect team for her battles. The official website for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet claims that Nemona uses {{p|Lechonk}} and {{p|Smoliv}}, even though she is never seen using either of these Pokémon.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/lechonk/ Lechonk — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref><ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/smoliv/ Smoliv — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

=====First battle=====
Winning this battle is not mandatory. The player will not [[black out]] and the story will progress either way.

{{main|Nemona (anime)}}
Nemona is a supporting character in {{aniseries|HZ}}. Introduced as a Champion of the Paldea region, Nemona quickly befriended [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Dot]] despite her competitive nature.

Throughout the series, she often helped mentor Roy and served as a friendly rival to him.

===Pokémon: Paldean Winds===
[[File:Nemona Paldean Winds.png|250px|thumb|left|Nemona in Pokémon: Paldean Winds]]
Nemona first appeared in ''[[PPW01|Breathe Out]]''. Nemona was first seen being watched by [[Aliquis]] as she taught some children the concept of {{Tera}}stallization. Later, during [[Ohara]]'s performance, she was seen attending the concert with [[Naranja Academy]]'s academic staff. During the events of the episode, it was revealed that Nemona had a battle to wage against Aliquis.

In ''[[PPW02|Breathe In]]'', Nemona defeated Aliquis in battle, some time later, Nemona had a new battle against her rival, this time a [[Full Battle]]. Initially, Nemona was winning again, but the battle scenario changed when Aliquis made peace with his {{TP|Aliquis|Meowscarada}}, upon seeing Aliquis's determination, Nemona decided to continue the battle with each of the Trainers Terastallizing their Pokémon. With new determination, the battle between Nemona and Aliquis continued.

In ''[[PPW03|Take a Breath]]'', it was revealed that Nemona managed to beat Aliquis in the last battle, thus achieving a score of three victories against her biggest rival in the Academy.

In ''[[PPW04|Breathe Together]]'', during the presentation of Naranja Academy's introduction video for new students, Nemona appeared presenting a talk to some students and then to the rest of the Academy's student body.

==Trivia==
* Nemona's Student ID at the Academy is 805C001.
* Nemona is the first [[rival]] to have completed her [[Pokémon journey]] prior to the events of the game.
* Nemona's [[Badge|Gym Badges]], seen in her dorm room, have a different design than the player's Gym Badges.
* Nemona's [[Rotom Phone]] uses a [[List of clothing in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Rotom Phone|Black Case]].
* Nemona, [[Clavell]], and [[Iono]] are the only characters in the [[League Club Room]] that don't trade to the player a Pokémon or a pre-Evolution of a Pokemon that they are seen using in battle, that being {{rf|Paldean}} {{p|Tauros}}, {{p|Pawmo}}, and {{p|Magnemite}}, respectively.
** The Pokémon that Nemona and Clavell trade, however, are references to {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}'s opening cutscene, where she is seen with a Paldean Tauros and he with a {{p|Pawmi}}.
* Nemona is tied with [[Kieran]] for the highest-[[level]] Pokémon owned by a rival character, with her [[first partner Pokémon]] and his {{p|Hydrapple}} reaching level 87 during the [[Mochi Mayhem]] epilogue and the [[Blueberry Academy]] [[rematch]]es. The only NPC-owned Pokémon outside of a [[battle facility]] that out-level them at their strongest are {{ga|Red}}'s {{TP|Red|Pikachu}} in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} and [[Cynthia]]'s {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} in her post-[[Stark Mountain]] team in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, which are both level 88.
* Each of the three possible first partner Pokémon that Nemona adds to her team during the Blueberry Academy rematches shares a secondary [[type]] with the [[Paldea first partner Pokémon]] that has a type advantage over it: {{p|Infernape}} shares its {{t|Fighting}} type with {{p|Quaquaval}}, {{p|Greninja}} shares its {{t|Dark}} type with {{p|Meowscarada}}, and {{p|Decidueye}} shares its {{t|Ghost}} type with {{p|Skeledirge}}.

Flashlight237: No, bro. Consistency is using official Sugimori art when it becomes available, NOT using the Pokemon HOME placeholder image. Also, nobody cares about the file format as long as it's official Sugimori art. Do NOT revert it back to the obvious placeholder.

'''Eternatus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムゲンダイナ''' ''Mugendina'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Dragon}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VIII]].

While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, the player battles a powered-up [[#Form data|form]] of Eternatus known as '''[[Eternamax]] Eternatus''' in the climax of {{g|Sword and Shield}}. Prior to [[Generation IX]], this form could also briefly be seen when it uses its [[signature move]], {{m|Eternabeam}}, but the form itself cannot be acquired legitimately in-game.

It is associated with the [[legendary heroes]] and was responsible for the [[Darkest Day]].

==Biology==
[[File:Eternatus Galar particles.png|thumb|left|250px|Eternatus absorbing [[Galar particle]]s]]
Eternatus is a gigantic, draconic alien {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Its body has a vaguely draconic shape and skeletal appearance, and it is largely dark violet with red highlights. Its main body and tail are long and thin and resemble a spinal column, and it has four small, thin limbs ending in claws formed from spindly appendages attached at right angles. Its torso is formed from a cage of appendages resembling ribs, and inside is a glowing pink core that serves as Eternatus's energy source, absorbing energy to sustain it. Its head is triangular and has a pair of white, eye-like markings in the form of three connected circles, as well as a spindly lower jaw with several diamond-shaped teeth. Over its head is a translucent red film held between five long spikes extending toward its body's rear. It also has a pair of thin tendrils extending from its back, formed from numerous triangular segments. Eternatus's gigantic size makes it the [[List of Pokémon by height|tallest known]] Pokémon with the exception of Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon.

Eternatus serves as the source of the [[Dynamax]] phenomenon in [[Galar]] due to its power leaking out in the form of [[Galar particle]]s following its defeat 3000 years ago by {{p|Zacian}}, {{p|Zamazenta}}, and [[First kings of Galar|two human youths]]. After it reawakened in the present day, Eternatus's core needed to reabsorb the Galar particles in order to remain active, apparently due to its past defeat weakening it. In [[Pokémon Masters EX]], Eternatus can replace Galar particles by absorbing {{DL|Sync stone|sync stone energy}} in massive amounts instead. Its core can also project its absorbed energy into {{m|Dynamax Cannon|massive blasts}} fired directly from its center. These blasts are capable of causing more damage to Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon. Pieces of its body imbued with its power rain down throughout Galar in the form of [[Wishing Piece]]s and [[Wishing Star]]s. When it is awake, Eternatus causes a phenomenon dubbed the [[Darkest Day]], in which the massive quantities of Dynamax energy it unleashes cause Pokémon to Dynamax and rampage uncontrollably. It can also sometimes keep other Pokémon from Dynamaxing in its presence. Despite this connection to the phenomenon, it cannot Dynamax itself, as its Eternamax form replaces that effect.

As depicted in the {{aniseries|JN}} episode ''[[JN044|Sword and Shield: "From Here to Eternatus!"]]'', Eternatus can use its energy core to target a Pokémon and force it to Dynamax or Gigantamax. The series also elaborates upon its ability to block other Pokémon from Dynamaxing, depicting this power as Eternatus absorbing the Galar particles in the area to make them unavailable for other Pokémon to use. The same episode also shows that Eternatus can forcibly revert other Pokémon that have already Dynamaxed or Gigantamaxed through the same process. In the animated series, [[Rose]] coined Eternatus's name, but in the past, it was known as the "Darkest Day", as referred to by the people of Galar who feared it 3000 years ago. As seen in chapter ''[[PASS30|Oh My!! The Disappearance of Henry]]'' of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, Eternatus's poison has the capability of altering people's behavior, making them violent and selfish, as shown with {{Henry}} after he touched the poison. As later mentioned by {{ga|Calyrex}} in ''[[PASS38|Munch Munch!! The Mysterious Carrot]]'', both met during the first Darkest Day.

Eternatus is an [[extraterrestrial Pokémon]] that came to the [[Pokémon world]] inside an asteroid around 20,000 years ago. It's implied by [[Peonia]] that Eternatus's asteroid (referred to as a massive [[Wishing Star]]) landed at the [[Crown Tundra]], specifically in [[Slippery Slope]], creating a cavern now known as the [[Max Lair]].

Eternatus is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the moves {{m|Dynamax Cannon}} and {{m|Eternabeam}}.

===Forms===
Eternatus can power up and become [[Eternamax]] Eternatus.
[[File:Eternamax Eternatus Rose Tower SWSH.png|right|thumb|Eternamax Eternatus uncurling its body [[Tower summit|atop]] [[Hammerlocke Stadium]]]]
When Eternatus absorbs all the energy in the Galar region, it transforms into its Eternamax form. Eternamax Eternatus is Eternatus's original form. This form's larger size makes it the tallest known Pokémon in existence. Its sheer size dwarfs even [[Gigantamax]] Pokémon. Eternatus briefly assumes this form when using {{m|Eternabeam}}, one of its signature moves.

In this form, Eternatus's shape drastically changes. Its body becomes incredibly long and serpentine with most of its body forming a massive coil. Its entire body glows red, and at regular intervals across its length are black rings with spikes extending outward. Its back tendrils now curl around its main body. Its energy core rests at the center of the coil inside a cage of violet spikes. Eternatus's head takes on the form of a giant hand, with its "fingers" covered in black armor with spikes extending from the back of each segment. At the tip of each finger there's a mouth-like opening on its armor revealing pink insides. According to [[Casey Shield]], Eternatus's five fingers are actually heads.

In its Eternamax form, Eternatus's power grows so immense that it causes a great storm of Dynamax energy around it, ripping holes in spacetime amid the storm as it releases a virtually infinite amount of energy. In this form, Eternatus is capable of using its most {{m|Eternabeam|powerful attack}}, shooting a large beam from the white spot in its "palm" and several smaller ones from its "fingers" or from all over its immense body. Thanks to a mysterious power, Eternatus can prevent opposing Pokémon from using any moves as it stores its energy. This power however can be countered by both {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} in their Crowned forms.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
{{spoilers}}
* [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]]: [[Tower summit#Trainers|Eternatus]] is a main character and a boss encounter in the games. It crashlanded 20,000 years ago in the [[Galar]] region within a [[Wishing Star|giant asteroid]]. Around 3,000 years ago, Eternatus awakened for the very first time and caused a catastrophic event known as the [[Darkest Day]], which caused Pokémon all over the region to [[Dynamax]] and go berserk. However, the [[legendary heroes]] {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} allied themselves with [[First kings of Galar|two youths]] and managed to take Eternatus down, forcing it back into its slumber.
** In the present day, [[Rose|Chairman Rose]] awakened Eternatus to use its infinite energy to save Galar from an energy crisis a thousand years into the future. [[Leon]] attempted to stop it but failed to catch the {{pkmn|category|Gigantic Pokémon}} and was defeated by it, leaving it up to the {{player}} and [[Hop]] to battle it. During the battle, Eternatus entered its [[Eternamax]] state, which only caused the situation to become more dire. Using the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]], the player and Hop summoned Zacian and Zamazenta to fight by their side and managed to defeat Eternatus. The player then catches it to prevent it from causing any further damage.

|}

===Form data===
During the climax of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the {{player}} confronts a powered-up version of Eternatus known as [[Eternamax]] Eternatus, which is fought in a semi-scripted [[Max Raid Battle]] and uses [[Max Move]]s like a [[Dynamax]]ed Pokémon.

This form is unobtainable, but briefly appears in the move animation for {{m|Eternabeam}}. The move is not treated as a form change internally, and Eternatus's stats and form index value remain unchanged. If Eternatus uses this move, Eternamax Eternatus will not be registered in the player's [[Pokédex]], making it impossible to legitimately register {{Shiny}} Eternamax Eternatus. However, a Shiny Eternamax Eternatus can be registered in {{g|HOME}}'s Pokédex by depositing Shiny Eternatus into HOME's storage, as it automatically registers both forms. If a Pokémon targets Eternamax Eternatus with {{m|Transform}} or {{a|Imposter}}, it will instead transform into Eternatus's regular form.

Eternamax Eternatus's [[cry]] and [[base stats]] are different to those of its regular form (with it having the highest base stats of any Pokémon to date).

===Main series===
====Major appearances====
=====[[Leon's Eternatus]]=====
Eternatus debuted in ''[[JN012|Flash of the Titans!]]'', where it passed by the [[Galar]]-bound plane that {{Ash}} and [[Goh]] boarded, causing interference to it in the process. It later played a notable role during the [[Darkest Day]] arc, before being ultimately {{pkmn2|caught}} by Goh, who gave it to [[Professor Magnolia]] for safekeeping. In ''[[JN127|Just a Scone's Throw From Here!]]'', he entrusted Eternatus's ownership to {{an|Leon}}. During Ash and Leon's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] battle, Eternatus broke out of its confinement and flew to [[Wyndon]] to stabilize the immense energy created by the battle, before returning to the {{pkmn2|wild}} as Galar's protector.

====Minor appearances====

===Pokémon Evolutions===
Eternatus appeared in a flashback in ''[[PE01|The Champion]]'', where it was battled against by {{ga|Victor}} and [[Hop]] during the [[Darkest Day]] and subsequently {{pkmn2|caught}} by the former.

[[File:Eternamax Eternatus Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Eternatus Eternamax in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Eternatus debuted in ''[[PASS17|Stealth!! Infiltrate the Energy Plant]]'', where it was locked away within in [[Hammerlocke]]'s [[Energy Plant]] by [[Rose]]. It properly appears in ''[[PASS25|Rumble!! The Horrific Darkest Day]]'' when [[Rose]] started the [[Darkest Day]]. In ''[[PASS29|GRRR!! The Irrepairable Gears]]'', it entered its Eternamax form. After being attacked by {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}, it suddenly disappeared, only to reappear later and restart the Darkest Day. Once it had been beaten by Zacian and Zamazenta, {{Casey}} asked for it to be allowed to stay free to enable a potential coexistence between it and humans, which [[Oleana]] agreed to.

===Pokémon Journeys===
{{main|Leon's Eternatus}}
Eternatus debuted in ''[[JNM04|Flash of the Titans!]]''. It reappeared in ''[[JNM14|Sword and Shield... The Legends Awaken! (Part 2)]]'', where it was caught by [[Goh]], just like in the animated series.

==Trivia==
* Eternatus is the [[List of Pokémon with unique base stat totals|only Pokémon]] with a base stat total of 690.
* Eternatus, in both of its forms, is the [[List of Pokémon by height|tallest]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
* Eternatus is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Poison}} and {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon, and also the heaviest Pokémon overall introduced in Generation VIII.
* Eternatus has several similarities to {{p|Terapagos}}. Both are [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that are responsible for the special type of transformation ([[Dynamax]]/[[Gigantamax]] and {{Tera}}stallization) found within their respective origin [[region]]s ([[Galar]] and [[Paldea]]). They also both have transformations exclusive to them related to these phenomena increasing their [[stat]]s (Eternatus's {{form|Eternatus|Eternamax}} form and Terapagos's {{form|Terapagos|Stellar Form}}, though the former is unobtainable) and can absorb the energy needed to use these transformations from other Pokémon, thereby rendering them unavailable. Both of them were also introduced in a game which would receive DLC and whose [[game mascot]]s comprise a {{DL|Groups of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|Legendary duo}}.
* Eternatus, {{p|Zacian}}, and {{p|Zamazenta}} are the only Pokémon available in {{g|Sword and Shield}} that cannot [[Dynamax]].
** Pokémon {{m|transform}}ed into Zacian, Zamazenta, or Eternatus will also be unable to Dynamax.
** Despite this, Eternatus is still capable of using [[Max Move]]s in its Eternamax form. This makes it the only non-Dynamax Pokémon that can use Max Moves.
* Eternatus is the first Legendary Pokémon that can be {{pkmn2|caught}} with any Poké Ball without the chance of failing.
* Eternatus is the first Legendary Pokémon to be a {{Type|Poison}}.
* Eternamax Eternatus:
** Is tied with {{p|Blissey}} for the highest base {{stat|HP}} stat of all Pokémon.
** Has the highest base {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats of all Pokémon.
*** A [[level]] 100 Eternamax Eternatus could reach 655 in one of these stats, which would cause the stat to overflow to 0, due to a quirk in the coding for {{g|Sword and Shield}} which affects no other Pokémon.
** Has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon, with 1125. This also makes it the only Pokémon with a four-digit base stat total.
** Is the only alternate form of a Legendary Pokémon that cannot be legitimately used by the player.
* Eternatus and {{p|Regigigas}} have very similar category names in Japanese, with the only difference being in how they're written: Regigigas's category name is in {{wp|hiragana}} (きょだいポケモン), while Eternatus's category name is in {{wp|katakana}} (キョダイポケモン). In either case, the category name is pronounced the same: {{tt|''Kyodai Pokémon''|Gigantic Pokémon}}.
* Unlike other Pokémon in the {{pkmn|animated series}}, Eternatus is animated with 3D animation rather than 2D during the {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} arc. It is the only Pokémon in ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'' to have this distinction.
** Eternatus is the first Pokémon animated with either 2D or 3D animations outside of {{pkmn|movie}}s.
* In {{aniseries|JN}}, [[Rose|Chairman Rose]] is the one who named {{TP|Leon|Eternatus}}. It had previously shared its name with the [[Darkest Day]] event.
* Eternatus is the first Legendary Pokémon officially owned by a [[Goh|main character]] or a {{an|Leon|Champion}} in the animated series.
* In {{g|UNITE}}, if the language is set to Russian, Eternatus is referred to as both Итернатус ''Iternatus'' and Этернатус ''Eternatus'', while Pokémon GO and the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online only use the latter spelling.
* In {{aniseries|JN}}, Eternatus's voice effect was composed from effects of the kaiju {{wp|Gamera}} and {{wp|Ebirah}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSmbBE8yIrI ガメラとムゲンダイナの鳴き声比較 / Gamera and Mugen Dyna's roar]</ref>
* In {{g|GO}}, Eternatus's Pokédex entries are erroneously swapped between its normal and Eternamax forms.
* In Pokémon GO, Eternatus uses the most {{GO|Candy}} to power up, with a minimum of {{candy|Eternatus}}60 for 1 power-up.

===Origin===
Eternatus's extraterrestrial nature and {{wp|dragon}}-like appearance may be inspired by {{wp|Uther Pendragon}}, {{wp|King Arthur}}'s father, who acquired his {{wp|epithet}} and started using dragons on his {{wp|Heraldic flag#Standard|standards}} after witnessing a dragon-shaped comet. Its abilities may also draw inspiration from {{wp|nuclear power}}, particularly its seemingly endless supply of energy which [[Rose]] attempted to use as a power source for [[Galar]] and which leaks out in the form of particles and is the source of the Dynamax phenomenon. In fiction, nuclear radiation is often used as a catalyst for granting superpowers or creating ''{{wp|kaiju}}''. It also vaguely resembles aliens from various pieces of media. This is also indicated by its association with wishing stars. Eternatus aesthetically seems to also be inspired by the concept of {{wp|diaphonization}}, the technique used to stain animal bones and cartilage. This being shown by Eternatus remotely resembling a skeleton. The most common dyes used for this process, alcian blue and alizarin red, could be analogous to Zacian and Zamazenta respectively.

Its overall body shape resembles the skeletal remains of a {{wp|European dragon}}, with the ribcage shaped like a cannon and the head resembling that of the common nawab or "dragonhead" caterpillar.

Eternamax Eternatus resembles a {{wp|hand}} crossed with a {{wp|Serpent symbolism|serpent}}. It may be based on the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}, a multi-headed serpentine monster from Greek mythology, known for its poisonous breath and blood, with Eternatus's "fingers" representing the Hydra's heads. It may also be based on the biblical {{wp|Serpents in the Bible|Seven Headed Dragon}} that, in the {{wp|Book of Revelation}}, throws one-third of all stars down to the Earth and is ultimately banished to Earth with the {{wp|Nephilim}}, the Hebrew giants — an event that ultimately leads to the {{wp|end time|end of time}}. This account may also be the origin of the item [[Wishing Star]] and the [[Darkest Day]]. It may also be inspired by {{wp|Shesha|Ananta Shesha}}, the king of Nagas in Hindu mythology who is usually portrayed as a giant, coiled serpent with a thousand heads capable of spewing venom and fire, though some depictions simplify his appearance down to five heads, again reflected in Eternatus's five "fingers". Shesha bears the deity {{wp|Vishnu}} on its coils, similar to how Eternamax Eternatus's core is mounted atop its coiled body.

====Name origin====
Eternatus may be derived from ''{{wp|Aether (mythology)|aether}}'', ''eternal'', ''eternity'', ''aeternatus'' (Latin for immortalized), and ''Thanatus'' (Latin transliteration of {{wp|Thanatos}}, the personification of death in Greek Mythology).

Mugendina may be a combination of 無限大な ''mugendaina'' (infinite), ダイマックス ''Daimax'' ([[Dynamax]]), and possibly ''dynamic''.

'''Crobat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クロバット''' ''Crobat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Golbat}} when [[friendship Evolution|leveled up with high friendship]]. It is the final form of {{p|Zubat}}.

(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for these details.)

==Biology==
[[File:CrobatSkyridge6.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Crobat hanging upside-down with their wings folded]]
Crobat is a purple, {{wp|bat|chiropteran}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a small, round body. It has long, pointed ears, yellow eyes with red pupils, and a small mouth that usually has its teeth bared. On its body are two pairs of wings: an upper pair that is slightly larger and a lower pair that developed from its hind legs. Both pairs have green-blue membranes, but the lower pair's membranes are only visible from the back. The upper wings have two claw-like fingers near the middle. On the bottom of its body are what appear to be a pair of stubby feet or tufts of fur.

Crobat is capable of flying long distances by alternating between its two sets of wings. The extra set of wings has also improved its flight speed without sacrificing its ability to fly silently. It can also travel through cramped caves without ever slowing. The combination of silent flight and sharp fangs allows it to bite down on prey without being noticed and drain their blood. If unable to consume blood, it becomes lethargic and unable to fly. Due to its lack of legs, it is clumsy on the ground and only able to crawl around with its wings. Crobat is rarely found in the wild, though it is typically found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}} or on tree branches, where it hangs upside-down by its rear wings. It is a nocturnal Pokémon.

Crobat evolves from {{p|Golbat}} and is the final form of {{p|Zubat}}.

===Main series===
[[File:Brock Crobat.png|thumb|250px|Crobat in {{aniseries|SM}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Brock's Crobat]]=====
In ''[[EP196|Control Freak!]]'', {{an|Brock}}'s Crobat evolved from his Golbat, thus also marking the species' debut. After the [[Johto]] saga, he gave it to his younger brother [[Forrest]] but has since reclaimed it.

=====Other=====
In ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]'', [[J's henchmen]] used three Crobat to battle {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} during the hunt for the [[Aura Sphere Riolu]].

{{Animedexbody|EP196|Crobat|Ash's Pokédex|Crobat, the evolved form of {{p|Golbat}}. With its two additional wings, Crobat is able to fly much faster than Golbat.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|Johto}}

===GOTCHA!===

===Pokémon Adventures===
Crobat debuted in ''[[PS136|Crossing Crobat]]'', where [[Janine]] used one to {{pkmn|battle}} {{DL|Legendary beasts (Adventures)|Suicune}}. After Suicune countered its first attack, Janine ordered Crobat to use {{m|Double Team}}. Suicune was able to see through this as well, however, due to the shadow cast by the real Crobat and Janine, and Crobat was frozen.

A pack of multiple Crobat and its evolutionary line attacked [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and [[Erika]] in the [[Tohjo Falls]] in ''[[PS150|Chinchou in Charge]]''.

{{main|Crobat (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Crobat only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
''A Bat Pokémon that evolves from {{p|Golbat}}, Crobat's hind legs have evolved into a second pair of wings, which allows it to fly at great speeds but limits its ability to rest. The affection a Golbat has for its {{pkmn|Trainer}} is vital for the evolution process: if a novice Trainer has a Crobat, it shows that he or she cares for Pokémon well.''

==Trivia==
* Prior to its debut, Crobat's cry existed in [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokemon Red/Blue's]] files and is one of the possible cries for [[MissingNo.|Missingno]].
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Crobat and its pre-evolved forms. They are also the only Flying-type with a unique type combination.
* Crobat and its pre-evolved forms are the only {{type|Poison}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Flying}}.
* Crobat and its pre-evolved forms share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Woobat}}. They are all known as the Bat Pokémon.
* Crobat's color scheme is the reverse of {{p|Golbat}}'s. This also applies to its {{Shiny}} variation.
* Crobat's evolutionary line has several similarities with {{p|Swoobat}}'s. All of the members of both lines are based on bats and reach their respective final evolved form by [[friendship]].
* Crobat can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Noivern}}. Both are {{type|Flying}} Pokémon based on bats that have {{a|Infiltrator}} as a possible [[Ability]]. They have the same base stat total and the same base [[HP]], {{stat|Defense}}, and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats.
* Although Crobat's Pokédex entries imply that its only pair of hindlegs have developed into wings, Crobat is sometimes depicted with an additional pair of tiny legs/feet.

===Origin===
Crobat seems to be based on a {{wp|bat}}, particularly {{wp|vampire bat}}s, which bite other animals to {{wp|Hematophagy|feed on their blood}}. It may also be inspired by mythological {{wp|vampires}}. Its extra set of wings may be based on the fact that a bat's front legs and hindlegs are connected by their {{wp|patagium}}, essentially incorporating all of their limbs into their wings. Its very high {{stat|Speed}} stat may be based on the {{wp|Mexican free-tailed bat}}, which purportedly has the fastest horizontal flight speed of any animal. Its {{t|Poison}} type may be inspired by either the {{wp|anticoagulant}} properties of vampire bat saliva or the fact that bats are infamous for spreading deadly diseases such as {{wp|rabies}}.

====Name origin====
Crobat may be a combination of ''cross'' and ''{{wp|bat}}''. It may also involve ''{{wp|Acrobatics|acrobat}}'' (referring to its agility in the air).

Shiny Pokémon

[[File:Pokémon Gallery Encounter with Shining.png|300px|thumb|"Pokémon Gallery: Encounter with Shiny Pokémon" by [[Ken Sugimori]], which depicts {{ga|Ethan}} encountering a Shiny {{p|Charizard}}]]
A '''Shiny Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|色違|いろちが}}い''' ''color variation''; '''{{ruby|光|ひか}}る''' ''shining'') is a specific {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a different coloration to what is usual for its species. It is one of the many differences that a Pokémon can have within its species.

[[Form]] differences, such as that of {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}, are not normal or Shiny variations of one another, but their individual forms can be Shiny.

==Terminology==
{{main|Terminology of Shiny Pokémon}}

They were originally called '''rare''' (Japanese: '''レア''' ''rare'') in the debug menu from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, '''Color Pokémon''' in {{g|Stadium 2}}, and also referred to as '''Alt. Color''' in the [[Generation III]] [[easy chat system]]. The '''{{TCG|Shining Pokémon}}''' from the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}} were also introduced before the word "Shiny" was officially used in Pokémon games. Some early guidebooks also refer to them as "'''colored Pokémon'''" or "'''specially colored Pokémon'''".

The term "'''Shiny Pokémon'''" was first created by fans based on the sparkling sound effect and animation at the start of an encounter with one in the {{pkmn|games}}. Eventually, this term fell into official usage in Generation IV, used on promotional material promoting Shiny [[event Pokémon]].

Shiny Pokémon were introduced in the [[Generation II]] games. When a Shiny Pokémon appears in the wild or from its [[Poké Ball]], [[#Appearance|it is surrounded]] by a flash of stars or light, which is accompanied by a pinging sound effect.

Individual Pokémon cannot change their Shininess. A Shiny Pokémon will always be Shiny, and a regular Pokémon will never become Shiny. Upon evolution, a Pokémon retains its Shiny status; for example, a Shiny {{p|Charmander}}, if leveled up, will eventually become a Shiny {{p|Charmeleon}} and then a Shiny {{p|Charizard}}, while a regular Charmander will become a regular Charmeleon and then a regular Charizard.

An icon (seen in the table above) appears on the status screen of Shiny Pokémon in most games. In Generation II, this icon appears in the top-right corner of the screen, by the gender symbol, while in most other games, it appears in or near one of the corners of the Pokémon's image; however, {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} do not have any icon. In Generation III, the Pokémon's [[Pokédex]] number will be colored gold instead of white and the background of the Pokémon's image has a lighter shade; likewise, in Generation IV and V, the color of some elements of the status screen differ for Shiny Pokémon.

===Design===
[[File:Specially colored Pokémon.png|thumb|right|250px|Early explanation about Shiny Pokémon (''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver: Complete Pokédex]]'', page 9)]]
Shiny Pokémon can differ in color from their normal counterparts very little or very much. Some Pokémon, such as {{p|Glaceon}} or {{p|Pichu}}, have a Shiny coloration only a few shades darker or lighter in color. Conversely, some Pokémon, such as {{p|Caterpie}} or {{p|Smeargle}}, have dramatic differences in color.

An [[evolution]]ary line is not necessarily guaranteed to have similar Shiny colorations even if their standard colorations are the same; both {{p|Ponyta}} and {{p|Rapidash}} have orange flames, but a Shiny Ponyta has blue flames while a Shiny Rapidash has gray flames (this is switched in [[Generation II]]). Sometimes, two Pokémon in an evolutionary line with different standard colorations will have the same Shiny coloration, as in the case of {{p|Skitty}} and {{p|Delcatty}}.

Little is known about how Shiny colorations are chosen. While it is often rumored that early Shiny colorations were determined algorithmically, all Pokémon's Shiny colorations are individually defined in the game data<ref>[https://github.com/pret/pokegold/blob/1521f52e37741a9220a1362443df6d0462e582d3/data/pokemon/palettes.asm Pokémon Gold Disassembly]</ref> and Pokémon with similar palettes have distinct Shiny colorations even in [[Generation II]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/DrLavaYT/status/1235549199543885825 @DrLavaYT] on Twitter</ref> [[James Turner]], who has worked as a Pokémon designer since [[Generation V]], stated that the first time he selected Shiny colorations was in [[Generation VII]], when he selected the Shiny colorations of the [[Ultra Beast]]s he designed.<ref>[https://twitter.com/JamesTurner_42/status/1091889698555875328 @JamesTurner_42] on Twitter</ref>

In the [[Game Boy]] mode of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, the sprites of both regular and Shiny Pokémon use the same shades of gray. A Shiny Pokémon can still be identified by the stars on its status screen or the animation shown when it comes into battle.

In [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|Pokémon HeartGold, SoulSilver]], {{LGPE|Let's Go, Pikachu!, Let's Go, Eevee!}}, {{pkmn|Legends: Arceus}}, {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Scarlet, and Violet}}, a Pokémon's Shininess is visible in the overworld, though this only applies to Pokémon following the player in HeartGold and SoulSilver, and does not apply to static encounters. Additionally, in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, the party icon of Shiny Pokémon will depict its Shiny coloration.

===Determining Shininess===
====Generation II====
In Generation II, being Shiny is determined by a Pokémon's [[DVs]], equivalent to {{IV}}s from Generation III onward. If a Pokémon's Speed, Defense, and Special DVs are all 10, and its Attack DV is 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14 or 15, it will be Shiny. Because of this, a Shiny Pokémon traded to a [[Generation I]] game and then traded back to Generation II will retain its Shininess, and a Pokémon obtained in Generation I whose DVs meet the requirements for Shininess will also become Shiny when traded to Generation II.

Since the HP DV is calculated from the other four DVs, a Shiny Pokémon's HP DV will always be either 0 or 8. Shiny Pokémon are generally above average in terms of DVs, but only slightly.

The probability of a Pokémon encountered in the wild or obtained as a [[gift Pokémon|gift]], [[in-game trade]], or {{pkmn2|event}} in Generation II having its DVs line up in the above manner is 1/8192 (assuming every IV combination has the same probability, which is usually the case).

The probability differs for [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] Pokémon, as their DVs are partially influenced by their parents. Specifically, a parent passes its Special stat (plus or minus 8) and its Defense stat to its children that are the opposite gender from it. (If Ditto is one of the parents, it is always the one that passes these stats.) This means that if a Shiny parent passes its DVs to a child, the child's inherited Defense DV will always be 10, its inherited Special DV will have a 1/2 chance of being 10, its randomly generated Attack DV will have a 1/2 chance of being an appropriate value, and its randomly generated Speed DV will have 1/16 chance of being 10. This results in a 1/64 chance that such a child will be Shiny. These breeding mechanics also mean that if a child inherits its DVs from a Pokémon that does not have a Defense DV of 10 and a Special DV of 2 or 10, it cannot be Shiny.

=====Transferring from Generation I Virtual Console games=====
Pokémon transported to {{g|Bank}} from the [[Virtual Console]] releases of the Generation I games via [[Poké Transporter]] may be Shiny after being transported. Since Version 1.3 of Poké Transporter, this is determined the same way as in the Generation II games. Prior to Version 1.3, the roles of the Attack and Defense DVs were swapped, meaning that the process did not properly correspond to Generation II.

The same {{DL||quirks}} that apply to transferring Pokémon from Generation I to Generation II games also apply.

The {{p|Mew}} that were distributed to the Generation I Virtual Console games have DVs of 15 in every stat, meaning they can never be Shiny.

====Generation III onwards====
{{main|Personality value#Shininess|Personality value → Shininess}}
From [[Generation III]] onward, whether a Pokémon is Shiny depends on the Pokémon's [[Original Trainer]]'s [[ID number]] and secret ID number, as well as the Pokémon's [[personality value]]. The exact calculation is:
:<code>TrainerID '''xor''' SecretID '''xor''' PersonalityValue31..16 '''xor''' PersonalityValue15..0</code>
where the latter two values represent the highest and lowest 16 bits of the 32-bit personality value respectively.

The above formula can result in a number ranging from 0 to 65535. In Generations III to V, if this result is less than 8, then the Pokémon is Shiny, giving an overall probability of 8/65536 or 1/8192, exactly the same as in Generation II. Starting in [[Generation VI]], this threshold was increased to 16 (meaning the result must be ''less than'' 16), effectively doubling the probability from preceding generations. In [[Generation VIII]], if this result equals 0, or if the Pokémon has the [[fateful encounter]] flag set, then the Pokémon has square Shiny sparkles.

===Shiny Pokémon rates===
The table below summarizes the rates at which Shiny Pokémon can be found by the methods that will be detailed below. The [[Shiny Charm]] can directly add to the odds for most methods, with [[hidden Pokémon]] being affected uniquely.

{{Reflist|group=note}}

===Shiny first partner Pokémon===
In most core series games, the first partner Pokémon appear in their regular non-Shiny forms before the player chooses one, even if the chosen first partner Pokémon turns out to be Shiny. Therefore, the player is unable to verify if a first partner Pokémon is Shiny before obtaining it.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the player is exceptionally able to check if {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, or {{p|Totodile}} are Shiny before choosing one of them as their first partner Pokémon. However, if this first partner Pokémon that appeared as Shiny is obtained by the rival {{ga|Silver}} instead, it will appear as a regular non-Shiny Pokémon for the remainder of the game. The rival's Pokémon teams are predefined in the game data, with no flag to account for a possible Shiny first partner Pokémon.

In some games from [[Pokémon X and Y]] onwards, there are some cutscenes and dialogue before the player is able to obtain the first partner Pokémon and verify if it is Shiny.

===Transformed Pokémon===
[[File:Pikachu Shiny Mew.png|thumb|right|Shiny {{p|Mew}} transformed into Pikachu in Generation II]]
These are the results of {{m|Transform}} or {{a|Imposter}} used by or on a Shiny Pokémon.

* In Generation I and II [[core series]] games (when played in [[Color palette (Generations I–II)|color]]), the transformed Pokémon retains its original color palette. For instance, Shiny {{p|Ditto}} and Shiny {{p|Mew}} are both blue Pokémon, so they will transform into blue versions of the target.
* In {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium]], the transformed Pokémon has the normal colors of the target.
* In {{g|Stadium 2}} and [[Generation III]] games (including {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD|XD}}), a Shiny Pokémon transforms into the Shiny version of the target Pokémon. Likewise, a non-Shiny Pokémon transforms into the non-Shiny version of the target Pokémon.
*: For instance, if a Shiny Ditto uses Transform on a non-Shiny (red) Magikarp, then Ditto becomes a Shiny (golden) Magikarp.
* From [[Generation IV]] onwards (including {{g|Battle Revolution}}), Transform copies the target's coloration; whether or not the transformed Pokémon is Shiny depends on whether the target is, not the user.
*: For instance, if any Ditto (Shiny or not) uses Transform on a non-Shiny (red) Magikarp, then Ditto becomes a non-Shiny Magikarp as well. Likewise, if any Ditto uses Transform on a Shiny (golden) Magikarp, Ditto becomes a Shiny Magikarp as well.

===Generation II===
[[File:Pokémon Day 2022 Johto Artwork.png|thumb|250px|Artwork of {{ga|Ethan}} encountering the [[Red Gyarados|red]] {{p|Gyarados}} for [[Pokémon Day]] 2022]]

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
In Generation II, any Pokémon can be Shiny, but the game includes a [[red Gyarados]] that the player must encounter at the [[Lake of Rage]] during the course of the story. In {{game|Crystal}}, the [[Odd Egg]] also has a high chance of hatching a Shiny Pokémon: 50% in Japanese games, and 14% in all other languages. {{fact}}

====Quirks====
Pokémon that are transferred from [[Generation I]] games may also be Shiny, depending on their DVs. Due to correlations between [[Pseudorandom number generation|pseudorandom numbers]] in the Generation I games, Pokémon encountered in those games in [[tall grass]], on [[cave tile]]s, or by {{m|Surf}}ing on [[water tile|water]] cannot have a set of DVs that would allow them to be Shiny in Generation II. [[Fishing]] encounters, [[gift Pokémon]] (including from [[Pokémon Stadium]]), stationary Pokémon (such as {{p|Snorlax}} and {{p|Mewtwo}}), and [[in-game trade]]s can have any set of DVs, so they always have the same 1/8192 chance of having a Shiny DV combination.<ref>[http://wiki.pokemonspeedruns.com/index.php?title=Pokémon_Red/Blue_Wild_DVs Pokémon Red/Blue Wild DVs]</ref>

Due to Shininess being determined by DVs, certain oddities arise in other things that are also determined by DVs in Generation II:
* It is impossible to have a Shiny {{cat|Pokémon with a gender ratio of seven males to one female}} that is female in those games, as the highest Attack DV a female Pokémon with a gender ratio of seven males to one female can have is 1, while the lowest Attack DV a Shiny Pokémon can have is 2.
**In v1.2 of [[Poké Transporter]], when transferring Pokémon from [[Generation I]], [[gender]] was determined randomly<ref>https://twitter.com/SciresM/status/824147081698967555</ref> instead of being determined by the Attack DV. As a result, prior to v1.3, it was possible for Transporter to generate "1 ♀ : 7 ♂" [[List of Pokémon by gender ratio#1 ♀ : 7 ♂|gender ratio]] Pokémon as both Female and Shiny.
* Only Unown I and V can be Shiny.
* A Shiny Pokémon's Hidden Power type in Generation II can only be either {{t|Grass}} or {{t|Dragon}}, with a power of either 49 or 69.
* In {{g|Stadium 2}}, Shiny Smeargle can only have pattern ID of 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 or 8.
* As Generation II does not allow two Pokémon to breed if they have the same Defense DVs, two Shiny Pokémon can never breed in Generation II.
* Each [[non-player character]] has a certain set of DVs shared by all of their Pokémon. Therefore, it would be technically possible for a NPC to have a team entirely consisting of Shiny Pokémon, but they cannot have a team with some Shiny and some non-Shiny Pokémon.

====Shiny Ditto glitch====
{{main|Transform glitches#Shiny Ditto glitch|Shiny Ditto glitch}}

In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, it is possible to use {{DL|Transform glitches|Shiny Ditto glitch|a glitch}} to catch a Shiny {{p|Ditto}}. If a wild Pokémon uses {{m|Transform}} twice (that is, transforms again while already transformed), when caught it will be a Ditto with the same DVs as the penultimate Pokémon it transformed into. This can be used to copy the DVs of a Shiny Pokémon owned by the player.

===Generation III===
====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
In [[Generation III]], some Shiny Pokémon appear on NPCs' teams. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, three Trainers in the [[Trainer Tower]] have Shiny Pokémon: the Trainer on the seventh floor in the Single Battle mode has a Shiny {{p|Meowth}}, the pair of Trainers on the first floor in the [[Double Battle]] mode have a Shiny {{p|Espeon}}, and the second Trainer on the fourth floor in the Knockout Mode has a Shiny {{p|Seaking}}. Several {{g|Battle e}} Trainers also have Pokémon which are preset as Shiny.

====Quirks====
A bug with the way Shininess is handled for Eggs can cause the Shiny status of a Pokémon hatched from an Egg to differ from the Egg hatching animation. This means that a hatched Pokémon may appear to be Shiny during the hatching animation, but actually not be, and vice versa. This happens because an Egg is initially given the [[original Trainer|OT]], [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID]] and [[secret ID]] of the game in which it is generated, and if it is hatched in a different game, the hatched Pokémon will be given the Trainer details of that game's player; the problem originates in the fact that this update does not occur until after the cutscene of the Egg hatching, so while it may be Shiny for the player who hatched it, it may not be Shiny for the player who obtained the Egg (or vice versa). This also allows Eggs obtained from event distributions (which in Generation III were only [[List of Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation III|distributed in Japan]]) to hatch a Shiny Pokémon when they would otherwise be non-Shiny Pokémon. This bug was not fixed until [[Generation VI]].

{{p|Unown}} also has an uneven distribution of Shiny probability depending on its form. This is because {{p|Unown}}'s form is also determined by its [[personality value]]. The exact probability for any given form depends on the player's Trainer ID and Secret ID, but it can have the values 1/5120, 1/6144, 1/9216, 1/10240, or 1/18432.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Pikachu-colored Pichu sit.png|thumb|200px|[[List of event Pokémon with in-game effects#Pichu|Pikachu-colored Pichu]], a Shiny {{p|Pichu}} available via {{pkmn2|event}}]]

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
In the [[Generation IV]] [[remake]]s of Generation II's {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the player once again must encounter a [[red Gyarados]] at the [[Lake of Rage]] during the course of the story.

====Methods of increasing Shiny rates====
Generation IV introduced the first ways to increase the chances of finding a Shiny Pokémon.

The [[Masuda method]] refers to breeding two Pokémon originating from games of different languages to increase the chances of breeding a Shiny Pokémon. Under these circumstances, the game generates up to five total personality values to attempt to find one that will be Shiny. Despite being obtainable in one's native language savefile, foreign language Pokémon obtained via [[in-game trade]]s, such as the {{DL|Foreign Pokédex entries|In Generation IV|Meister}}'s {{p|Magikarp|Foppa}} and [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{p|Pikachu|Volty}}, are treated as being from the [[language of origin]] shown by the language tag,<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1558955387369439232</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1558988423460925440</ref> so if bred with a parent caught in the same save file,<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1558956869829492737</ref> the Masuda method will take effect.

The [[Poké Radar]] slowly improves the odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon as the player builds a chain. The odds can reach a maximum of 41/8192 (approximately 1/200) for a single patch of grass for a chain of length 40 or higher; since up to four patches of grass can shake, the total odds become approximately 1/50. If the Poké Radar forces a Pokémon to be Shiny, it constructs a semi-random personality value that will fulfill the requirement for the Pokémon to be Shiny.

===="Shiny-locked" Encounters====
As with most core series Pokémon games, all the [[in-game trades]] with NPCs and the vast majority of limited time Event Pokémon are shiny-locked (all those where you get an event item to encounter a Pokémon such as [[Oak's Letter]] {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Platinum|Shaymin}} however are obtainable in shiny form). 
Pokémon caught via the [[PokéWalker]] and the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] cannot be shiny either.<ref>https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/past-gen-rng-research.61090/post-2634864 Pokewalker RNG Research</ref> 
The Manaphy egg you can get from the [[Pokémon Ranger series]] games is shiny-locked as well however this can be circumvented (see following "Quirks" section).

====Quirks====
{{a|Cute Charm}} can make it possible for players with certain [[Trainer ID number]] and [[Secret ID]] combinations to manipulate the chance of Pokémon with specific gender ratios being Shiny to be as high as 21.34% (while making the chance lower for all other players and Pokémon with different gender ratios, while using the Ability). This is due to how Cute Charm forces a wild Pokémon to be a specific gender when it activates, which is accomplished by modifying the Pokémon's [[personality value]] to be one of an extremely limited set of values.

The bug from Generation III that can cause a Pokémon's Shiny status to differ from the hatching animation persists. This again allows Eggs obtained from event distributions (which in Generation IV were only [[List of traded event Pokémon distributions in Generation IV|distributed in Japan]]) and the {{p|Manaphy}} Egg to be Shiny after hatching.

===Generation V===
[[File:649Genesect BW anime 5.png|thumb|200px|[[Genesect Army|Red Genesect]], a Shiny {{p|Genesect}} available via {{pkmn2|event}}]]

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
In {{B2W2}}, the player can obtain three specific Shiny Pokémon (however two version exclusive). If the player registers every non-event Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|Unova Pokédex]], they can receive a [[Permit]] that allows them to travel to the [[Nature Preserve]], where they can encounter a Shiny {{p|Haxorus}}. After defeating [[Benga]] in the [[Black Tower]]{{sup/5|B2}} or [[White Treehollow]]{{sup/5|W2}}, Benga will give the player a Shiny {{p|Gible}}{{sup/5|B2}} or Shiny {{p|Dratini}}{{sup/5|W2}}.

Starting in Generation V, Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]] will appear Shiny if the first specimen of that Pokémon encountered was Shiny (should you get a Shiny after you had already seen the non-Shiny form you can switch the form so that the [[Pokédex]] displays the Shiny form).

====Methods of increasing Shiny rates====
The Masuda method now generates up to six total personality values instead of five. This remains the case in later games.

Generation V also introduces the [[Shiny Charm]], a [[Key Item]] that increases the chances of encountering Shiny Pokémon, both in the {{pkmn2|wild}}, (including static encounters, such as {{pkmn2|Legendary|legendaries}}<ref>https://github.com/Admiral-Fish/PokeFinder/issues/17</ref>), and via {{pkmn|breeding}}. This is done by generating two extra [[personality value]]s to attempt to find one that is Shiny, effectively resulting in a tripled chance to find Shiny Pokémon compared to the base chance; from 1/8192 to approximately 3/8192 (roughly 1/2731). This stacks with most other modifiers which increase the Shiny encounter rate, such as the [[Masuda method]]. It has no effect on Pokémon obtained via NPCs from [[in-game trade]]s (which are all Shiny-locked anyways), {{pkmn2|gift}}s, or from {{pkmn2|Event}} Pokémon obtained via [[Mystery Gift]].

===="Shiny-locked" Encounters====
As with most mainline Pokémon games all the [[in-game trades]] with NPCs (including the Yancy and Curtis trades which are locked despite having randomized nature, gender and IVs which most other in-game trades don't have) and the vast majority of limited time Event Pokémon are Shiny-locked. 
[[Generation V]] introduced a mechanism often referred to by fans as a "{{DL|Appendix:Fan_terminology|Shiny-locked|Shiny lock}}" which, unlike Generation IV, even prevents event item encounters (here only Victini) from being shiny along with all [[Entree Forest]], [[Hidden Grotto]] and [[Pokémon Dream Radar]] encounters. 
On top of that both BW1 and BW2 have several other ingame encounters that cannot be Shiny. 
BW1: Castelia City Event {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black and White|Zorua}}, Lostlorn Forest Event {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black and White|Zoroark}}, {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black and White|Victini}}, {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black and White|Reshiram}} and {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black and White|Zekrom}}. 
BW2: [[N's Pokémon]], Castelia City Amanitas {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|Eevee}}, Season Research Lab {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|Deerling}}, {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|Zekrom}} and {{DL|List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|Reshiram}}.

====Quirks====
The bug from Generation III that can cause a Pokémon's Shiny status to differ from the hatching animation persists. This again allows Eggs obtained from event distributions to be Shiny after hatching.

===Generation VI===
[[File:376Metagross-Mega-Shiny.png|thumb|200px|Promotional artwork of a Shiny [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{p|Metagross}}]]
[[File:094Gengar-Mega-Shiny.png|thumb|175px|Promotional artwork of a Shiny Mega {{p|Gengar}}]]

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
[[Generation VI]] slightly changed how Shiny Pokémon are determined to double the default chances that a Pokémon will be Shiny. The basic formula remains the same, but the threshold for a Pokémon to be Shiny is now 16 instead of 8. This results in a base Shiny probability of approximately 16/65536, or 1/4096.

The following Pokémon are prevented from being Shiny when encountered as [[wild Pokémon]] in {{g|X and Y}}: the [[legendary birds]], the [[Aura trio]], {{p|Mewtwo}}, the {{p|Snorlax}} encountered on [[Kalos Route 7]], the gifted {{p|Lucario}} at the [[Tower of Mastery]], and [[in-game trade]] Pokémon.

The following Pokémon are prevented from being Shiny when encountered as [[wild Pokémon]] in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}:
The [[Super-ancient Pokémon]], {{p|Deoxys}}, the in-game gift [[Cosplay Pikachu]], and [[in-game trade]] Pokémon.

====Methods of increasing Shiny rates====
The [[Poké Radar]] returns for {{g|X and Y}}. The exact mechanics of the Poké Radar in these games are not confirmed, but the Poké Radar can still force a Pokémon in a shaking patch to be Shiny.

In X and Y, in the [[Friend Safari]], Shiny Pokémon are more common. The game achieves this by generating up to four extra personality values when checking if a Pokémon will be Shiny. This effect can stack with the Shiny Charm's effect.<ref>[https://github.com/wwwwwwzx/3DSRNGTool/wiki/Friend-Safari-RNG Friend Safari RNG · wwwwwwzx/3DSRNGTool Wiki · GitHub]</ref>

[[Fishing#Generation VI|Consecutive fishing]] can increase the odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon as the player builds a chain of reeled-in Pokémon by fishing from the same spot. For every Pokémon added to the chain, the game tries two extra personality values to attempt to make the Pokémon Shiny, up to a chain of 20 Pokémon, at which point the chances reach a maximum of 41/4096 or approximately 1%. This effect can stack with the Shiny Charm's effect.<ref>[http://mrnbayoh.github.io/pkmn6gen/chain_fishing_shiny/ Pokemon 6G Chain Fishing Probability Analysis]</ref>

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, {{DL|DexNav|hidden Pokémon}} have a chance to be forced to be Shiny. Unlike most other methods that increase the odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon, this does not increase the number of personality values that the game tries, but instead executes a {{DL|DexNav|Shiny probability|custom algorithm}} to decide whether to force a Shiny personality value. In brief summary, the chances of forcing a Shiny Pokémon grow steadily from 0% at Search Level 0 to 0.06% at Search Level 100 (only surpassing the natural odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon at Search Level 41), then grows steadily to 0.08% at Search Level 200, after which the rate of growth becomes 0.01% for every 100 Search Levels. Certain factors can increase the odds further by performing the check extra times. There is a random 4% chance it will be performed four extra times; if the player has the Shiny Charm it will be performed two extra times; and if the player is encountering the 50th or 100th Pokémon in a chain of hidden Pokémon, it will be performed five or ten extra times respectively. All of these bonuses stack.<ref>[http://mrnbayoh.github.io/pkmn6gen/dexnav_shiny/ Pokemon ORAS DexNav Shiny Encounter Probability Analysis]</ref>

===Generation VII===
[[File:Shiny Tapu Koko.png|thumb|200px|Promotional artwork of a Shiny {{p|Tapu Koko}} by [[kawayoo]]<ref name=ShinyTapuKokoArt>[https://archive.is/CoPfJ kawayoo confirming he drew the Shiny Tapu Koko event art.]</ref>]]

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, after entering the [[Hall of Fame]], {{tc|Sightseer}} Marcus appears at the [[Seafolk Village]] [[Pokémon Center]], battling the player with a Shiny {{p|Exeggcute}}. This marks the only time an NPC Trainer outside of a battle facility uses a Shiny Pokémon (excluding capture tutorials).

The following Pokémon are prevented from being Shiny when encountered as [[wild Pokémon]] in Generation VII games: The [[Guardian deities]], the [[Light trio]], {{p|Zygarde}} in [[Resolution Cave]]{{sup/7|USUM}}, the two {{p|Wishiwashi}} encountered during the [[Trial]] in [[Brooklet Hill#Brooklet Hill proper 3|Brooklet Hill]]{{sup/7|SM}}, {{p|Pinsir}} on [[Exeggutor Island]]{{sup/7|USUM}}, {{p|Bewear}} in the [[Hau'oli City#Shopping District 4|Hau'oli City Shopping District]]{{sup/7|USUM}}, the {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Drifloon}} at the [[Trainers' School (Alola)|Trainers' School]]{{sup/7|USUM}}, the {{p|Sandygast}} on [[Alola Route 15|Route 15]]{{sup/7|USUM}}, the static encounter female {{p|Frillish}} on [[Alola Route 14|Route 14]]{{sup/7|USUM}}, and the {{p|Electrode}} found in [[Team Rocket's Castle]].

The following [[Ultra Beast]] encounters are prevented from being Shiny in Pokémon Sun and Moon, but are not prevented from being Shiny in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon: {{p|Nihilego}}, {{p|Buzzwole}}, {{p|Pheromosa}}, {{p|Xurkitree}}, {{p|Celesteela}}, {{p|Kartana}}, and {{p|Guzzlord}}.

The following [[gift Pokémon]] are also prevented from being Shiny: {{p|Cosmog}}, {{p|Magearna}}, all {{p|Zygarde}} obtained from {{rt|16|Alola}} and the [[Zygarde Cube]], and all [[Totem]]-sized Pokémon obtained on [[Heahea Beach]]{{sup/7|USUM}}.

====Methods of increasing Shiny rates====
=====Pokémon Sun and Moon=====
In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, as well as {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, as Pokémon in [[SOS Battle]]s continue calling in allies, the chance that they will be Shiny increases. At chain lengths of 11, 21, and 31, the game will check up to four extra personality values to find a Shiny Pokémon (meaning the maximum number of personality values checked will be 13 for a chain of 31 Pokémon or more). This effect can stack with the Shiny Charm's effect.<ref>[https://twitter.com/wwwwwwzx/status/947223541925126144 wwwwwwzx on Twitter]</ref>

In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, the chain length value is stored as an {{wp|8-bit computing|8-bit integer}}. As a result, the chain length will reset to 0 if the chain length exceeds 255 due to {{wp|integer overflow}}. This issue was fixed in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, allowing SOS chains of any length.

In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Pokémon encountered through the [[Ultra Warp Ride]] (excluding [[Legendary Pokémon]] and [[Ultra Beast]]s) have a chance to be forced to be Shiny. The Shininess of these Pokémon is determined when the player arrives at the [[Ultra Space Wilds]]. The probability that a Pokémon encountered this way will be Shiny depends on the rarity of the wormhole and the distance traveled.<ref>[https://twitter.com/wwwwwwzx/status/946705752265129985 wwwwwwzx on Twitter]</ref>

Note that 3-ring "blooming" wormholes will always contain Legendary Pokémon (which do not have increased odds of being Shiny), unless all Legendary Pokémon that could be encountered in that particular wormhole have already been caught.

=====Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!=====
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Shiny Pokémon rates can be increased dramatically with catch combos and lures. However, combos past 31 will have no additional effect on shiny chance.

The [[Catch Combo]] bonus is only applied to the next Pokémon of the chained species to spawn after the prior Pokémon is captured, meaning the player must continue to catch Pokémon regardless of chain length, or the bonus will not apply to any subsequent spawns. The bonus does not apply to any Pokémon that spawn nearby that do not match the currently chained species.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1492970750264979456</ref>

With a catch combo of 31 or higher, a [[Shiny Charm]], and a [[Lure]], the next Pokémon of the chained species to spawn will have the highest shiny chance of 1/273.53.

The above three Shiny-increasing methods have no effect on [[in-game trade]]s or [[Gift Pokémon]].<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonLetsGo/comments/a48ruf/shiny_chances_an_update/</ref>

===Generation VIII===
[[File:Shiny Zacian Zamazenta JP.jpg|thumb|right|Promotional artwork of a Shiny {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} by [[Hitoshi Ariga]]<ref name=ShinyZacianZamaenta>[https://web.archive.org/web/20211022024640/https://twitter.com/ariga_megamix/status/1451379419927355395 Tweet about the Shiny Zacian and Shiny Zamazenta event art] (posted on October 21, 2021)</ref>]]
In {{g|Sword and Shield}} and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, [[Symbol encounter|Pokémon that appear in the overworld]] use their standard coloration, regardless of whether they are Shiny or not. They will not be revealed to be Shiny until they are encountered. [[Walking Pokémon]] assigned to follow the player in [[Isle of Armor]], [[Crown Tundra]], and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} outdoor areas will use their correct coloration. In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Shiny Pokémon that appear in the overworld will be colored properly, play the Shiny animation and audio cue when spawning, and periodically play the Shiny animation and audio cue while roaming the overworld. Example of the audio cue can be found below:

{{Youtubevid|sKzfB5rNrpM|channel/UC_m6cRHEk_EOafZz5QXGI8A|name=Diflic|Legends Arceus|Legends Arceus}}

Beginning with Pokémon Sword and Shield, Shiny Pokémon that hatch from Eggs now have a sparkling animation displayed.

====Variants====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, there are two different types of Shiny Pokémon, distinguished only by the type of sparkle animation that plays when they enter battle. One type has an animation with star-shaped sparkles (similar to previous generations), while the other uses square-shaped sparkles.

{{main|#Appearance|Shiny Pokémon → Appearance}}

Like Shininess itself, the type of Shiny sparkle a Pokémon has is determined by its [[personality value]]. Ordinarily, there is a 15/16 chance of a Shiny Pokémon having a personality value that yields star sparkles, and a 1/16 chance of it having a personality value that yields square sparkles. (For Shiny Pokémon obtained in Generation III, IV, or V, due to the different Shiny rate in those games, there is instead a 7/8 chance of a Shiny Pokémon having star sparkles, and a 1/8 chance of it having square sparkles.)

However, wild encounters in Pokémon Sword and Shield have drastically different rates for each Shiny sparkle type. Shiny Pokémon encountered in the wild in Pokémon Sword and Shield have a 65521/65536 chance of having square sparkles and a 15/65536 chance of having star sparkles.<ref>https://twitter.com/SciresM/status/1197039032112304128</ref> This does not apply to Pokémon hatched from {{pkmn|Egg}}s, received as {{pkmn2|gift}}s, or encountered in [[Max Raid Battle]]s.

Shiny Pokémon obtained from [[Dynamax Adventures]] always have star sparkles. Pokémon that are guaranteed to be Shiny (i.e. from Max Raid Battles during some [[Wild Area News]] events) always have a personality value that yields square sparkles.

Additionally, starting in Pokémon Sword and Shield v1.1.0, Shiny Pokémon met in a [[fateful encounter]] or transferred from {{g|GO}} always have square sparkles, regardless of their personality value.<ref>https://twitter.com/SciresM/status/1273492861065912320</ref>

In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} and {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, these variants are not distinguishable from each other, as all Shiny Pokémon use the same entry animation with star-shaped sparkles like in previous [[generation]]s.

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
[[File:Legends Arceus Request 19 Ponyta.png|thumb|250px|The Shiny {{p|Ponyta}} from the {{DL|Task|request}} ''A Peculiar Ponyta'' in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}]]
In Pokémon Sword and Shield, the following Pokémon are prevented from being Shiny when encountered as wild Pokémon: the {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowpoke}} at {{DL|Wedgehurst|Wedgehurst Station}},<ref>https://github.com/kwsch/PKHeX/blob/e7d60a88de8b89b687aae46f2ed151cc81249eb7/PKHeX.Core/Legality/Encounters/Data/Gen8/Encounters8.cs#L342</ref> the {{p|Corvisquire}} on [[Galar Route 3]],<ref>https://github.com/kwsch/PKHeX/blob/e7d60a88de8b89b687aae46f2ed151cc81249eb7/PKHeX.Core/Legality/Encounters/Data/Gen8/Encounters8.cs#L101</ref> {{p|Zacian}}, {{p|Zamazenta}}, {{p|Eternatus}}, the Galarian [[legendary birds]], {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Glastrier}}, {{p|Spectrier}}, and {{p|Calyrex}}. Additionally, all [[Gift Pokémon#Generation VIII|in-game gift Pokémon]] (except the fossil Pokémon from [[Cara Liss]]) cannot be Shiny.<ref>https://github.com/kwsch/PKHeX/blob/e7d60a88de8b89b687aae46f2ed151cc81249eb7/PKHeX.Core/Legality/Encounters/Data/Gen8/Encounters8.cs#L35-L70</ref>

Pokémon that are too high a level for the player to catch with the current [[Badge]]s (described as "very strong-looking" in-game) cannot be Shiny, except Pokémon that appear as static encounters.

In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the following Pokémon are prevented from being Shiny: the [[Gift Pokémon#Generation VIII|Gift Mew and Jirachi]] in [[Floaroma Town]], and all Pokémon available via [[In-game trade]].

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, all {{pkmn2|Legendary}}, {{pkmn2|Mythical}}, and {{pkmn2|Gift}} Pokémon are prevented from being shiny, as well as certain static encounters during [[Task#Missions|Mission]]s and [[Task#Requests|Request]]s, such as the three Alpha Pokémon found in [[Lake Verity]], [[Lake Valor|Valor]], and [[Lake Acuity|Acuity]]'s caves during Missions 14, 15, and 16.
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}} in the {{DL|Task|request}} ''A Peculiar Ponyta'' the player will encounter a guaranteed Shiny {{p|Ponyta}}. Once they've calmed the first Frenzied [[Noble Pokémon]], they will be able to pick up this request in [[Jubilife Village]] from Yota.

=====Max Raid Battles=====
In Pokémon Sword and Shield, whether the Pokémon currently occupying an active [[Pokémon Den]] is Shiny or not is determined when the den becomes active, and will not change if the game is reset. For dens activated with a [[Wishing Piece]], the Shiny status of the Pokémon in the den is also predetermined for every subsequent day the den remains active. The chance of encountering a Shiny Pokémon in a [[Max Raid Battle]] is not affected by the [[Shiny Charm]].

Although Pokémon encountered in Max Raid Battles can always be caught regardless of how many Badges the player has, if the Pokémon's level is too high for the number of [[Badge]]s the player has, it will be forced not to be Shiny. However, because Shiny status is determined when the Max Raid Battle spawns, if the player earns enough Badges before defeating it, the Pokémon will be Shiny upon capture even if they lacked the required Badges when it spawned.

======Wild Area News events======
Pokémon Sword and Shield has had several [[Wild Area News]] events that included Shiny Pokémon. During these events, one of the 5★ [[Max Raid Battle]] encounter slots was guaranteed to be a Shiny Pokémon. As mentioned above, these guaranteed Shiny Pokémon will always have square sparkles.

The following is a list of such events in reverse chronological order:

=====Traded Eggs=====
Unlike in previous generations, where {{pkmn|Egg}}s keep their original [[personality value]]s when traded and can potentially go from Shiny to non-Shiny or vice-versa if hatched by a player with a different [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID]] and Secret ID, Eggs traded in [[Generation VIII]] have their personality values altered according to the hatcher's TID/SID, to ensure they retain their original Shiny status when hatched by a player other than the original owner.

====Methods of increasing Shiny rates====

=====Pokémon Sword and Shield=====

In Pokémon Sword and Shield, the number of times that the player has caught or defeated each species of Pokémon increases the chance of Pokémon of that species appearing as a [[Brilliant Pokémon]] in the overworld.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1448334955461939210</ref> This number is recorded in the player's Pokédex as "Number Battled". The number recorded increases when opponents are defeated in wild battles, Max Raid Battles, and Trainer battles (except link battles, the {{gal|Battle Tower}}, and [[Restricted Sparring]]).

The appearance rate of Brilliant Pokémon is further increased while [[Brilliant Pokémon#Fishing|chain fishing]]; depending on the length of the chain, a bonus between +2% and +25% will be added to the base appearance rate.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1448334998474477577</ref>

Brilliant Pokémon are more likely to be Shiny depending on the "Number Battled" for that species. When determining a Brilliant Pokémon's personality value, if the Pokémon would not be Shiny the game will regenerate the personality value a number of times depending on the "Number Battled", up to a maximum of 6 times.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1448335003834851333</ref> Non-Brilliant Pokémon are not affected and do not have enhanced Shiny rates.

=====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl=====

In the [[Grand Underground]], the Lightstone bonus<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1459147114110492676</ref> allows for 1 bonus shiny reroll after all players in an instance of the Grand Underground collect pink sparkles left by Diglett and Dugtrio that occasionally appear at corners and intersections, that give 1 and 3 points respectively.

Accumulating 40 of these points displays the message "something good will happen", and a whistle sound will play to all players in the instance. This increases the shiny odds for Pokémon in [[Grand Underground#Pokémon Hideaways|Hideaways]] from 1/4096 to 1/2048.25, for a period of 4 minutes. After the 4 minute period is over, a whistle will sound and the counter resets to 0, allowing Diglett and Dugtrio to appear again.

Additionally, [[Poké Radar]] chaining is available, and has [[Poké Radar#Chain Bonuses|Chain Bonuses]] that differ from Pokémon Diamond & Pearl, capping out at a Shiny Rate of 1/99 when the player reaches a chain length of 40+.<ref name="bdsptable"/>

=====Pokémon Legends: Arceus=====

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, completing Research Tasks to increase a Pokémon's Pokédex entry grants extra shiny rolls for that species once the entry reaches Level 10, and completing all Research Tasks for a given entry upgrades that entry to "Perfect", granting even more shiny rolls that stack with other bonus rolls.

The Shiny Charm in this game also grants 3 additional shiny rolls (instead of 2 in prior games), and is obtainable after all Pokédex entries are at Research 10.

Massive Mass Outbreaks grant 12 additional rolls, and Mass Outbreaks grant an additional 25 rolls, both of which will stack with any rolls granted from the Shiny Charm, or the player's Pokédex Research progress for that species.<ref name="twitter.com"/>

===Generation IX===
[[File:SV Shiny Lucario Event.png|thumb|250px|Promotional artwork of a Shiny {{p|Lucario}} with {{ga|Florian}}, drawn by [[Raita Kazama]]<ref name=SVLucario>[https://web.archive.org/web/20231211081957/https://twitter.com/kazamaraita/status/1734094266635550755 Kazama confirming he drew the SV Shiny Lucario Event art.]</ref>]]
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, all {{pkmn2|wild}} Shiny Pokémon will appear as Shiny in the overworld. However, unlike those found in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, there is no audio or visual effect to alert the player to a nearby Shiny prior to being encountered and beginning a battle. Additionally, while using the {{DL|Let's Go!|Auto Battle}} feature, [[walking Pokémon]] will refuse to attack Shiny Pokémon. However, this will not happen while using the [[Synchro Machine]].

The star and square sparkle variants that appeared in {{g|Sword and Shield}} are not present in Scarlet and Violet. Pokémon that previously appeared with square sparkles, if transferred to Scarlet or Violet, will display standard star-shaped sparkles like any other Shiny Pokémon.

When multiple players join a co-op session via the [[Union Circle]], each player has a radius where Pokémon will generate around them, and the chance of a Shiny appearing, and their respective bonus Shiny rolls, are determined by the player that "caused" that Pokémon to appear. If multiple players stand near each other, one of the players spawns will take priority. If players stand near the player hosting the Union Circle, it appears to always prioritize the host player's spawns and respective Shiny chances.

====In-game Shiny Pokémon====
{{incomplete|section|needs=More specific location info for the fixed symbol encounters that are Shiny-locked post-v1.0.1, encounter tables [https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1601990353564966915? here] for reference.}}
[[File:0384Rayquaza-Shiny.png|thumb|250px|Artwork of Shiny Rayquaza]]
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|all static encounters]], NPC {{pkmn2|gift}}s (such as the [[first partner Pokémon]]), and NPC [[in-game trade]]s (with one exception) are coded never to appear as Shiny.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1602047739751432192</ref> Static encounters include:
*All Legendary Pokémon, including [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Koraidon|Koraidon]], [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Miraidon|Miraidon]], all four [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Treasures of ruin|treasures of ruin]], all three of [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#The Loyal Three|The Loyal Three]], [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Ogerpon|Ogerpon]], [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Terapagos|Terapagos]], and all Legendary Pokémon encountered from speaking to [[Snacksworth]].
*[[Titan Pokémon]]
*All {{p|Gimmighoul}}
*The {{p|Lechonk}} encountered during the catching tutorial on [[Poco Path]].
*[[Artazon Gym]] Test {{p|Sunflora}}
*The interactable {{p|Tatsugiri}} at [[Casseroya Lake]] prior to the "False Dragon" Titan encounter
*[[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Bloodmoon Ursaluna|Bloodmoon Ursaluna]]
*[[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Gouging Fire|Gouging Fire]], [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Raging Bolt|Raging Bolt]], [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Iron Boulder|Iron Boulder]] and [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Iron Crown|Iron Crown]]

There are also some fixed [[symbol encounter]]s that are only prevented from being Shiny in v1.0.1 onward, but could generate as Shiny in v1.0.0, specifically:
*The two Green Plumage Form {{p|Squawkabilly}} located on the roof of the player's house in [[Cabo Poco]]
*The {{p|Wingull}} and {{p|Fletchling}} that fly away when approached in Cabo Poco, [[Poco Path]] and [[South Province (Area One)]]
*{{p|Tarountula}} in South Province (Area One)
*{{p|Wattrel}} in [[West Province (Area Two)]] and [[East Province (Area Two)]]
*{{p|Wingull}} in [[North Province (Area Three)]].

Wild Tera Pokémon have the standard 1/4096 chance to appear as Shiny.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1601990024920444928</ref>

Due to the [[RNG]] being limited to 32-bit seeds for [[Tera Raid Battle]]s (1,046,775 possible Shiny seeds out of 4,294,967,295 possible seeds), the chance of a Shiny Pokémon appearing in a Tera Raid is 1/4103.05 rather than the typical 1/4096. A Shiny Pokémon will appear Shiny during the fight, but there is no visual or audio cue such as sparkles.

The fixed [[symbol encounter]]s listed above (also known as [[wanderer]]s), wild Tera Pokémon, and Pokémon generated in [[Tera Raid Battle]]s are all unaffected by the [[Shiny Charm]] and Sparkling Power from [[sandwich]]es, and [[Egg]]s only benefit from the Shiny Charm, but not from Sparkling Power.
* All wild Pokémon that appear in the [[Area Zero Underdepths]] are considered fixed symbol/wanderer encounters internally, and are subject to the restrictions above.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1753874296772935729</ref>

In [[The Teal Mask]], after completing [[Ogre Oustin']] on Hard difficulty for the first time, the receptionist rewards the player with a Shiny {{p|Munchlax}}. This Munchlax has a [[Mark|Crafty Mark]] and is the maximum possible [[Size and weight variation#Generation IX|Scale]].

In [[The Indigo Disk]], [[Cyrano]] will trade a Shiny {{p|Blitzle}} to the player after he is invited to the League Club Room as a special coach.

====Methods of increasing Shiny rates====
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, both [[Mass Outbreak]]s and the "'''Sparkling Power'''" bonus from certain [[Sandwich]]es have an effect on the chances for a Pokémon to appear as Shiny in the wild.

Outbreaks can be cleared via {{pkmn2|caught|catching}}, {{pkmn|battle|battling}}, or using the {{DL|Let's Go!|Auto Battle}} feature to forcibly despawn Pokémon, and this progress is retained even if the game is saved and exited, or if the player leaves the area. However, Pokémon that despawn if the player leaves the area, enters a town, or enters a [[Picnic]] will not deplete a Mass Outbreak, allowing for the player to progress to 60 cleared Pokémon, then continue respawning the Mass Outbreak encounters indefinitely.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1593273003957055488</ref>

During multiplayer sessions via the [[Union Circle]], progress in an Outbreak is shared by all players, and the Outbreaks that appear will match the host player's singleplayer session. Any progress in a given Outbreak is retained between singleplayer and multiplayer.

;Mass Outbreaks
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has had several Poké Portal News events that boosted the Shiny rates of certain species of Pokémon in [[Mass outbreak]]s. During these events, the Pokémon that appeared had a flat 0.5% bonus chance of being Shiny.

The following is a list of such events in reverse chronological order:

===Unobtainable Shiny Pokémon===
{{main|List of unobtainable Shiny Pokémon}}
[[File:HOME0494 s.png|thumb|150px|Shiny {{p|Victini}} is an example of an unobtainable Shiny Pokémon.]]
In all [[generation]]s since Shiny Pokémon debuted, there are a few species that cannot be legitimately obtained as Shiny. These Pokémon are commonly referred to by fans as {{DL|Appendix:Fan_terminology|Shiny-locked|Shiny-locked}}.

This can happen if the Pokémon is coded not to appear as Shiny in the wild or via in-game {{pkmn2|gift}}s or [[in-game trade|trades]] and if the Pokémon cannot be [[Breeding|bred]] or has never been distributed as Shiny via [[event]]s.
{{-}}

===Non-playable character's Shiny Pokémon===
[[File:ShinyIntroMinccino.png|thumb|A Shiny {{p|Minccino}} in the introduction screen]]
It is possible for all of the following NPC Pokémon to be Shiny:
* The {{p|Rattata}} that the [[dude]] catches in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}.
* The {{p|Poochyena}}/{{p|Zigzagoon}} that attacks [[Professor Birch]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.
* The {{p|Zigzagoon}} that [[Wally]] uses in the capture tutorial in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.
* The {{p|Ralts}} that Wally catches in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} (but only when he catches it and not in subsequent battles).
* The {{p|Weedle}} that the {{ka|old man}} encounters in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* [[Rental Pokémon]] found in the {{gdis|Battle Factory|III}} in {{game|Emerald}}.
* {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} Pokémon used by the AI in {{game|Emerald}}.
* [[Wild Pokémon]] that appear in the [[Battle Pike]] and [[Battle Pyramid]] in {{game|Emerald}}.
* The Pokémon that the player uses in [[Battle CD]]s in {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}.
* The {{p|Starly}} that attacks the player in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, as well as in {{game|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|s}}.
* The {{p|Bidoof}} that {{ga|Lucas}} or {{ga|Dawn}} captures in the capture tutorial in {{game|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|s}}.
* {{gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}} Pokémon used by the AI in {{game2|HeartGold|SoulSilver|Platinum}}.
* [[Professor Juniper]]'s {{p|Minccino}} that appears in the "world of Pokémon" intro and the one used in the catching tutorial in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* Professor Juniper's {{p|Cinccino}} that appears in the "world of Pokémon" intro in {{B2W2}}
* The {{p|Purrloin}} that [[Bianca]] catches in {{B2W2}}.
* The {{p|Excadrill}} used by {{tc|Lass}} [[Accumula Town|Diana]] in her first battle in {{B2W2}}, if the player [[trade]]d her a Shiny Excadrill.
* The {{p|Hippowdon}} used by Lass Diana in her second battle in {{B2W2}}, if the player traded her a Shiny Hippowdon.
* The {{p|Fletchling}} that the rival, {{ga|Calem}} or {{ga|Serena}}, uses in the capture tutorial in {{g|X and Y}}.
* The {{p|Bunnelby}} that the rival, Calem or Serena, captures in the tutorial in {{g|X and Y}}.
* [[Arven]]'s Pokémon that he uses in the battles against the [[Titan Pokémon]] in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.

==In the side series games==
===Pokémon Stadium series===
[[Pokémon Stadium]], [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], as well as the Japanese {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium}}, feature a [[Nickname#Pokémon Stadium series|nickname mechanic]] by which a non-Shiny Pokémon's {{wp|hue}} can be rotated a certain amount which causes changes in its coloration. The colors a nicknamed Pokémon has are determined by the Pokémon's nickname and the [[Original Trainer]]'s [[Trainer ID number]] and name. Conversely, a Shiny Pokémon's color palette changes can be more complex, they often also include a change to the {{wp|Colorfulness#Saturation|saturation}} and {{wp|lightness}}. Hue rotations for Shiny Pokémon can also be made outside of the range used for nickname color shifts. {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, {{p|Geodude}}, and {{p|Graveler}} all have Shiny appearances which can be mimicked by specific value combinations although they will be missing the characteristic sparkle effect. Shiny {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Wigglytuff}}, {{p|Gyarados}}, {{p|Noctowl}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, and {{p|Igglybuff}} use special textures instead of shifting the colors of their default appearance. {{p|Smeargle}} also demonstrate a non-standard alternate coloration in Stadium 2, their back and tail markings can be red, green or blue depending on their [[Individual Values#Smeargle's patterns' colors|DVs]].<ref>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1u4PDIfP9VerQSQibzHPzQh5oRNBUhmEi10F4kZ2uuho/edit?usp=sharing</ref>

In Stadium 2, nicknamed Shiny Pokémon do not vary in color. This also applies to Eggs containing Shiny Pokémon as the game internally considers "EGG" to be a nickname. It is therefore possible to determine if a Pokémon is Shiny before it hatches since a Shiny Egg will always retain its default color.<ref>https://bluemoonfalls.com/pages/tools/egg-previewer</ref>

In the Ekans Hoop Hurl game in the {{g|Stadium series mini-games|Kids Club}}, there are golden Diglett that are worth extra points. In Pokémon Stadium 2 mini-games, when a compatible [[Pokémon Storage System|box]] or [[party]] Pokémon is not available from a [[Transfer Pak]] or it is disconnected, there are {{DL|Pokémon Stadium series mini-games|List of mini-games 2|color variations that it defaults to}}.

In Stadium 2, there is an option while viewing the list to exclude any non-Shiny Pokémon from the listing (i.e. ''Group Color {{ScPkmn}}''/''Cancel Color {{ScPkmn}}''). This will show Shininess, even if the player is currently viewing a [[Generation I]] cartridge in the Lab.

It is possible for [[Challenge Cup]] Pokémon to be Shiny.

===Pokémon Colosseum===
[[File:Box Colo 100 s.png|thumb|200px|Shiny {{p|Voltorb}}'s box sprite in Pokémon Colosseum.]]
{{main|List of glitches in Generation III#Shiny Shadow Pokémon bug|List of glitches in Generation III → Shiny Shadow Pokémon bug}}
In {{g|Colosseum}}, non-Shadow Pokémon obtained in the game—such as the player's initial {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} and [[Duking]]'s {{p|Plusle}}—are prevented from being Shiny.

There is roughly a 1/8192 chance of a Shadow Pokémon being Shiny. When a [[Shadow Pokémon]] is first encountered, it is assigned a random [[personality value]], but the game ensures that the personality value does not cause it to be Shiny for its NPC Trainer (using that Trainer's Trainer ID and Secret ID). When the player catches the Shadow Pokémon, because it retains that same personality value but now has a different Trainer ID and Secret ID, it is possible for the Shadow Pokémon to be Shiny for the player. In subsequent encounters, the Shadow Pokémon retains the same personality value it had in the first encounter (meaning that whether it is Shiny for the player or not cannot change); however, because its NPC Trainer's Trainer ID and Secret ID can differ, it can be Shiny for its NPC Trainer in these subsequent encounters.

[[Purification]] has no effect on the Shiny status of a Pokémon: Shiny Pokémon remain Shiny, and non-Shiny Pokémon cannot become Shiny.

In Pokémon Colosseum, the color of a Shiny Pokémon can differ drastically from the core series games.
{{-}}
===Pokémon XD===
In {{Pokémon XD}}, the game ensures that all Shadow Pokémon are not Shiny by recalculating the Pokémon's [[personality value]] if it would result in a Shiny Pokémon. However, non-Shadow Pokémon (such as the initial {{p|Eevee}}, [[in-game trade]]s, [[Mt. Battle]] [[Johto first partner Pokémon]], and [[Poké Spot]] Pokémon) can be Shiny.

Like in Pokémon Colosseum, the color of a Shiny Pokémon can differ drastically from the core series games. Shiny Pokémon have a different profile icon next to their health bar than their normally-colored counterparts.

=== Pokémon Ranger series ===
In [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], by charging up the [[Capture Styler]] before drawing {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s [[Ranger Sign]] to repeat its boss battle, the player can battle a more powerful Shiny Ho-Oh.

===My Pokémon Ranch===
[[File:MPR Photography.png|thumb|200px|Shiny {{p|Zigzagoon}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, and {{p|Bibarel}} as seen in My Pokémon Ranch]]
In [[My Pokémon Ranch]], Pokémon's Shininess is visible. [[Hayley's trades|Pokémon traded by Hayley]] cannot be Shiny. (Including {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Phione}}, which despite having variable [[personality value]]s, they both use the {{DL|Pseudorandom number generation|Alternative pseudorandom number generator (ARNG)|antishiny ARNG}} generation method which prevents them from being Shiny, the same way as Type 1 [[Wonder Card]] Pokémon and {{vg|Pokémon Ranger}}'s {{p|Manaphy}} Egg.)
{{-}}

===Pokémon Battle Revolution===
{{incomplete|section|needs=Better images, technical documentation. [https://twitter.com/TheAbsol/status/1635763531915116554 Research Thread] [https://twitter.com/Noa_Kyogre/status/1638960527488712705 Additional photos][https://twitter.com/Noa_Kyogre/status/1650521267441897473 Video of shiny lucario outfit]}}
[[File:Pokémon Battle Revolution Shiny Groudon Costume.jpg|300px|thumb|The standard and Shiny versions of the Groudon Gear costume, as shown in the official guidebook]]
In {{g|Battle Revolution}}, Shiny Pokémon have face-sprites which show their Shininess. Random Pokémon in Colosseum can be Shiny, but have the same chance of being Shiny as wild Pokémon. Similarly to Colosseum, the shiny Pokémon can be drastically different from their core series game counterparts.

Costumes worn by the [[Colosseum Leader]]s also have the potential to appear as Shiny, and if the Leader is encountered and defeated for the first time while wearing the Shiny variant of their costume, it will grant the player the ability to wear that gear on their [[Custom Pass]].
{{-}}

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
====Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness and Sky====
In {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}} and {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky}}, a Shiny {{mdc|Celebi|2}} is part of the story, although Shiny Pokémon are not obtainable normally in the game.

====Pokémon Mystery Dungeon WiiWare====
[[File:Shiny Roserade PMD BSL.png|thumb|200px|Shiny Roserade]]
In the [[Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games]] for [[WiiWare]], Shiny Pokémon can be found in dungeons. Unlike the [[core series]], only 36 different species of Shiny Pokémon are obtainable. The chances of finding one in a dungeon is the same as finding one in the wild in the core series. Unlike Shiny Pokémon in the past however, the Shiny Pokémon found in these games have an added bonus: their {{DL|Stat|Belly}} stat starts at 200 as opposed to the 100 of normal Pokémon. A [[Red Gyarados]] can also be obtained at Level 30 via Wonder Mail password, as a reference to the one found in the Johto-based games.
{{-}}

====Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity====
[[File:Shiny Ho-Oh PMD GTI.png|thumb|200px|Shiny Ho-Oh]]
In {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} can be uniquely encountered as a Shiny Pokémon at [[Eternal Ruins]] through a [[Legend of the Mysterious Ruins]] job request. This Shiny Ho-Oh has a slightly different moveset to the regular Ho-Oh that can be met. It also has a unique animation that plays before the battle begins.
{{-}}

====Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon====
[[File:Shiny Celebi PSMD.png|thumb|200px|Shiny Celebi]]
The Shiny {{mdc|Celebi|2}} from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky makes an appearance. She is rescued as part of an expedition and subsequently [[Connection Orb|connects]] with the player. She has a unique animation that plays when entering a dungeon.
{{-}}

====Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX====
[[File:Shiny Gyarados PMDDX.png|thumb|200px|Shiny Gyarados]]
27 [[Mystery Dungeon]]s, once completed for the first time, will have "Strong Foe" Pokémon that spawn. These Pokémon have a higher than normal chance of being Shiny compared to the core series games. Shiny Pokémon cannot be recruited unless the Player has the [[Friend Bow]] equipped and the Shiny Pokémon's respective Camp purchased. [[Recruitment]] is still not guaranteed if these criteria are met.

Additionally, the Shiny Celebi from past Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games also makes a cameo appearance, and can be recruited after clearing [[Purity Forest]] and visiting Mystery Houses—rare rooms that spawn in post-game dungeons—with an invitation.
{{-}}

===Super Smash Bros. series===
In the [[Super Smash Bros.]] series, {{SSB|Pikachu}}, {{SSB|Jigglypuff}}, {{SSB|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, {{SSB|Charizard}}, {{SSB|Lucario}}, {{SSB|Greninja}}, and {{SSB|Incineroar}} each have several different colorations exclusive to the series. One of {{p|Pikachu}}'s alternate colorations is its Shiny coloration wearing {{ga|Red}}'s hat. One of {{p|Jigglypuff}}'s alternate colorations in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] is its Shiny coloration wearing a straw hat, and one of {{p|Incineroar}}'s alternate colorations greatly resembles its Shiny coloration; {{p|Mewtwo}} also has its Shiny coloration in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]. Squirtle and Ivysaur both have their current Shiny colorations, but Charizard has its original Shiny coloration from {{game|Gold and Silver|s|Pokémon Gold/Silver}}/{{v2|Crystal}}. All other playable Pokémon in the series do not have their actual Shiny coloration as an alternate coloration.

===Pokémon Rumble series===
====Pokémon Rumble====
[[File:Shiny Mothim PR.png|200px|thumb|Shiny Mothim]]
In {{g|Rumble}}, Shiny Pokémon may rarely appear, starting with a 1/8192 chance when playing solo and reaching a maximum of a 1/2048 chance with four players<ref>https://x.com/lincolnlm_/status/1754040777225961862</ref>. They will always tip over when defeated. Shiny Pokémon are always given a special trait, a blue name in menus, and a star below their picture on the Collection screen. Some Shiny Pokémon can be obtained by the use of passwords.

The Pokémon that appear during the credits can be Shiny, as well.
{{-}}

====Pokémon Rumble U====
Shiny Pokémon return to the {{g|Rumble series}} in {{g|Rumble U}} though are only obtainable through the use of passwords or the NFC Rumble U Figures.

===Pokémon Conquest===
[[File:Nobunaga and Rayquaza.png|thumb|200px|Art of Nobunaga with his Shiny Rayquaza]]
A Shiny {{p|Rayquaza}} is featured in {{g|Conquest}}, sharing a Perfect Link with [[Nobunaga]], and is his Pokémon of choice during the [[Dragnor#Second battle (Infinite Tower)|final battle]] of the main scenario. {{DL|List of Wi-Fi Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V|Nobunaga's Black Rayquaza}} was distributed over Wi-Fi for Japanese {{2v2|Black|White}} players to commemorate the release of the game.
{{-}}

===Pokémon Shuffle===
There are 15 Shiny Pokémon, including [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] Pokémon, in {{g|Shuffle}}: {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Gengar}}, {{p|Magikarp}}, {{p|Gyarados}}, {{p|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Tyranitar}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Metagross}}, {{p|Rayquaza}}, {{p|Genesect}}, {{p|Hawlucha}}, {{p|Xerneas}}, {{p|Yveltal}}, and {{p|Diancie}}. Shiny Pokémon are treated as alternate forms of the standard Pokémon, sharing its [[List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number|Pokémon list number]] but not its {{OBP|Skill|Shuffle}}, experience, level, [[Mega Evolution (Shuffle)|Mega Effect]] (where applicable), and sometimes type.

===Pokémon GO===
{{main|Shiny Pokémon (GO)}}
In {{g|GO}}, certain Pokémon species have a chance of being Shiny, with each species having its own Shiny rate. For most Pokémon, the Shiny rate is approximately 1 in 512. However, in certain [[List of events in Pokémon GO|in-game events]], the Shiny chance may be increased for certain Pokémon. For example, on [[Community Day]]s, the featured Pokémon will always have increased Shiny odds. Shiny Pokémon may be encountered through any method: randomly in the {{pkmn2|wild}}, from hatching {{pkmn|Egg}}s, by completing [[Field Research]] tasks, by winning {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s, or as [[GO Battle League]] rewards. All Pokémon seen in the overworld appear non-Shiny, but when a player attempts to capture a Pokémon, it may appear as a Shiny Pokémon. Likewise, during a Raid Battle, the Raid Boss always appears non-Shiny during battle, but it may become Shiny during the bonus challenge. Shiny encounters are random for each player, meaning that if two players attempt to catch the same Pokémon, one player may encounter a Shiny Pokémon and the other may not.

===Pokémon Duel===
There are several figures that are Shiny Pokémon in [[Pokémon Duel]]. These figures are usually posed identically or near-identically to their regular Pokémon counterparts. A Shiny figure's Data Disk is always identical to the regular version's but a few have different Abilities. A Shiny figure cannot evolve or change form into a non-Shiny figure nor vice-versa. Additionally, a Shiny figure cannot be selected to be made into a {{DL|Tournament (Duel)|Golden and Silver Figures|Golden or Silver Figure}}. The following is a list of Shiny figures.

===Pokémon: Magikarp Jump===
[[File:Magikarp Jump Pattern 99.png|thumb|Gold Magikarp|100px]]
A Shiny {{p|Magikarp}}, referred to as a Gold Magikarp, is one of the possible Magikarp to fish in [[Pokémon: Magikarp Jump]]. Shiny {{p|Feebas}}, {{p|Luvdisc}} and {{p|Corsola}} may also appear in random encounter events during feeding. If the player breaks the [[Everstone]] that the Shiny {{p|Magikarp}} is holding and evolves it into a {{p|Gyarados}}, the {{p|Gyarados}} will also be Shiny.
{{-}}

===Pokémon Quest===
[[File:Shiny Tangela PQ.png|thumb|200px|Shiny Tangela]]
Shiny Pokémon are available in {{g|Quest}}, with their standard alternate color scheme. However, this only applies to the model of the Pokémon. The icon for the Pokémon will use the standard coloration. The "short detail block" for the Pokémon, seen in various menus when selecting the Pokémon (often, just above the [[Power Charm]]), includes a white star in the lower left corner.

In the [[Pokédex]], if the player has obtained a Shiny Pokémon of the species, then while viewing the details for that species the same white star will be present to the right of the species name, now enclosed in a yellow box. Tapping the Pokémon displayed will cause it to switch to the Shiny coloration. A second tap reverts the colors to normal These are not saved at any point, moving to a different Pokémon's information or closing the Pokédex resets the displayed color to normal.


The only gameplay related benefit to having a Shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Quest is that obtaining one completes the "Shiny Pokémon" Challenge Quest, which rewards 20 PM Tickets.

The exact chance of a Pokémon the player befriends being Shiny is unknown, but is estimated to be between 1/75 and 1/100. It is unknown if wild Pokémon in stages are able to be Shiny.
{{-}}

===Pokémon Masters EX===
In {{g|Masters EX}}, some of the {{mas|Egg Pokémon}} have a chance to be Shiny. Other characters would later form sync pairs with Shiny Pokémon. A Shiny {{p|Celebi}} also makes its appearance during the [[special event]]s {{DL|Special event|Double Trouble}} and {{DL|Special event|Blasting Off Again}}.

The following is a list of [[sync pair]]s with Shiny Pokémon.

===Pokémon Café ReMix===
In {{g|Café Mix}}, there was only Shiny {{p|Celebi}} available as a part of special event from December 23, 2020, to January 31, 2021. There were no new Shiny Pokémon added until the major overhaul.

In Pokémon Café ReMix, Shiny Pokémon can now be found randomly when selecting a customer. Similar to {{g|GO}}, new Shiny Pokémon are added over time, the first being Shiny {{p|Minccino}} and {{p|Eevee}}. Shiny variants are treated as separate Pokémon, although they share the same speciality (except for Celebi), skill and alternate outfits with normal variants. From January 12, 2022, the "Shuffle Customers" button now shines if there's a Shiny Pokémon in the customer pool.

Sometimes there are events called ''Welcome, Shiny Pokémon!'' that increase Shiny encounter rate for specific Pokémon, or in Shiny {{p|Rowlet}}'s case, are distributed via daily stamp during certain events. The following is a list of such events in reverse chronological order:

===Pokémon UNITE===
From February 22 to March 12, 2024, Shiny {{p|Rayquaza}} replaced the regular Rayquaza that normally appears as an objective Pokémon on [[Theia Sky Ruins]].

===Pokémon Sleep===
In [[Pokémon Sleep]], Pokémon that appear during sleep research have a small chance of being Shiny. Shiny Pokémon will always be hungry during Snack Time, and any [[biscuit]] given to it will instantly fill its friendship points to the maximum. Some [[list of events (Sleep)|events]] increase the chances of finding certain Shiny Pokémon during sleep research.

Shiny Pokémon studied will appear as Shiny in the home screen and in menus. The player can set a Shiny Pokémon as their profile icon if they have befriended a Shiny Pokémon of that species, even if the player has evolved the Shiny Pokémon of that species. Shiny Pokémon appear as such in photos and research shared with the player's research community. However, the Pokémon icon displayed next to unopened research will never appear Shiny, even if the studied Pokémon is Shiny.

Shiny Pokémon can be sent to [[Professor Neroli]] just like any other Pokémon, which is equivalent to [[release|releasing]] a Pokémon in the core series games and cannot be undone. Sending a Shiny Pokémon to the professor yields the same amount of {{sleep|candy}} as sending a non-Shiny Pokémon of that species.

===Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket===
Shiny Pokémon were introduced in the {{TCGP|Shining Revelry}} expansion of [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket]]. In Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket, Shiny Pokémon have a special [[rarity]] symbol, {{Rar/TCGP|Shiny|1}}.

The following is a list of Shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket.

Although the games had not introduced alternately colored Pokémon until [[Generation II]], several Pokémon seen in {{aniseries|PTS}} beforehand were colored differently. One such example is the [[pink Butterfree]], the mate of [[Ash's Butterfree]], which appeared as early as [[EP021|the twenty-first episode]]. This is, however, not the standard alternate coloration for a {{p|Butterfree}}, and therefore may not be counted as a Shiny Pokémon. Likewise, the first appearance of a {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} in ''[[EP205|The Kecleon Caper]]'' featured a non-standard alternately colored Pokémon, this time a purple {{p|Kecleon}}. Another example would be in ''[[SM058|Fighting Back the Tears!]]'', where a non-standard alternately colored {{p|Mareanie}} (who happens to be [[James's Mareanie]]'s first love) appears, and later evolves into a {{p|Toxapex}}.

In the [[Orange Islands]], certain Pokémon have a different coloration because the climate is different than that of the mainland. For example, a Butterfree, instead of the normal white with black markings, would have gold wings with red spots on them. On [[Pinkan Island]] of the Orange Islands, all of the Pokémon are colored pink because the [[Pinkan Berry|Pinkan Berries]] they eat make them that way.

The first true Shiny Pokémon that appeared was a {{AP|Noctowl}} in ''[[EP154|Fowl Play!]]''. {{Ash}} eventually {{pkmn2|caught}} it, and, as in the games, sparkles surround it as it comes from its {{i|Poké Ball}}. Several other Shiny Pokémon have appeared later as well, often used to make them stand out more, or be the focus of an episode. The term "Shiny" was first used in ''[[DP185|Working on a Right Move!]]''.

[[File:Roy Lucario sparkling.png|250px|thumb|[[Roy's Lucario|Roy's Shiny Lucario]] sparkling as it is sent out from its Poké Ball]]
In {{aniseries|HZ}}, two Shiny [[Legendary Pokémon]], [[Lucius]]'s [[Black Rayquaza]] and [[Gibeon]]'s [[White Zygarde]], play major roles in the backstory of the original [[Explorers]] and [[Laqua]]. One of [[Roy]]'s goals as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} is to catch the Black Rayquaza and earn its respect.

In [[HZ089]], [[Roy]] was revealed to have obtained a Shiny {{TP|Roy|Lucario}} that is capable of [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]].

==In the manga==
Because most manga series are published in {{wp|black-and-white}}, Shiny Pokémon are few and far between. One major exception, because of its importance to the plot of {{5v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, is the [[red Gyarados]].

[[File:Gyara Dragon Rage Silver Gyarados DragonBreath.png|thumb|250px|Gyara, a regular Gyarados (left) and Silver's red Gyarados (right) in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
[[File:Blake Colress Genesect.png|thumb|left|250px|A Shiny Genesect (left) and a regular Genesect (right) in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
In ''[[PS112|Raise the Red Gyarados]]'', {{adv|Silver}} caught a [[Silver's Gyarados|Shiny Gyarados]], the raging leader of a group of Gyarados, who had been on a rampage since [[Team Rocket]] took control of the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] and sent out their [[evolution]]-inducing radio waves.

{{adv|Crystal}} mentioned that she had caught a different-colored {{p|Pineco}} as part of the Pokémon sent to {{adv|Professor Oak}} in ''[[PS121|Off Course with Corsola]]''.

===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
A Shiny {{p|Genesect}} appeared in ''[[PS515|The Shadow Triad]]'', although it wasn't revealed to be Shiny at this time.

===={{MangaArc|Black 2 & White 2}}====
In ''[[PS546|Giant Chasm]]'', the Shiny Genesect was revealed to be owned by [[Colress]], who used it to battle [[Blake's Genesect]].

[[File:Lance Gyarados JNM.png|thumb|100px|The red Gyarados in {{ma|Pokémon Journeys}}]]
===Pokémon Pocket Monsters===
The Red Gyarados made an appearance in ''[[PM099|Stop That Strange Sonic Sound!!]]'', where [[Team Rocket]] plotted on catching it by luring it out of hiding using sonic waves, while at the same time, {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} went fishing for it. The Red Gyarados is darker than any normal-colored Gyarados in this media.

===Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure===
In [[Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure]], [[Jō]] and his {{TP|Jō|Totodile}} befriend the [[red Gyarados]] by calming its rampage and feeding it {{Berries}}. It later appears to help Jō and [[Lance]] battle [[Ariana]] and [[Petrel]].

===Movie adaptations===
A [[Genesect Army|Red Genesect]] appeared in ''{{ma|Genesect and the Legend Awakened}}''.

A Shiny {{p|Rayquaza}} appeared in ''{{ma|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages}}''. It had the ability to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into a Mega Rayquaza.

===Pokémon Journeys===
{{main|Lance's Gyarados}}
The red Gyarados, owned by {{an|Lance}}, appeared in ''[[JNM04|Flash of the Titans!]]''. It participated in the finals of the [[World Coronation Series]] and was defeated by {{an|Leon}} and his {{TP|Leon|Charizard}}.

A Shiny {{p|Larvesta}} appeared in the [[JNM24|final chapter]] of the manga. It evolved into a {{p|Volcarona}}, which [[Goh]] collected scales from to clear his [[Project Mew]] [[Field Research|Trial Mission]].

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation III]] through [[Generation VII]] , it is possible for an {{pkmn|Egg}} to hatch Shiny on one game but not another. This is because Shininess is partially determined by the Original [[Trainer ID]] and [[Secret ID]] number. Eggs have the ID and SID of the game they were originally bred on, but change to the ID and SID of the hatcher immediately after hatching. It is this change that affects Shininess.
** Confusingly, this means that if a {{player}} hatches a traded Egg that would have been Shiny on the game it was originally bred on, it will appear Shiny on the hatching screen (since it still has the ID and SID of the original game), and then suddenly no longer be Shiny afterward (once it has obtained the ID and SID of the hatcher's game). Conversely, it is also possible for a newly hatched Egg to not appear Shiny on the hatching screen and then suddenly become Shiny afterward, if the Egg has been traded.
** While all (Generation III onward) {{pkmn2|event}} Eggs are set to prevent or force Shininess, if a player other than the one who obtained it from the event hatches the Egg, this prevention is bypassed, allowing an event Egg to hatch Shiny. This is the only way to obtain a Shiny {{p|Manaphy}} in Generation IV.
* {{B2W2}} have the most in-game event Shiny Pokémon available (excluding [[Wild Area News]]), with two.
* Before [[Generation VIII]], {{p|Castform}}'s {{form|Castform|weather forms}} and {{p|Magearna}}'s {{form|Magearna|default form}} had the same colors regardless of whether they were Shiny or not (although the latter is not legitimately available in its Shiny coloration).
* In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, during one of [[Jacq]]'s biology classes, he mentions "the chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon in the wild is 1 in 4000", which is an inaccurate approximation compared to the true standard chance of 1/4096.

Mega Evolution

2024-10-20T17:05:37Z

Flashlight237: Eternamax Eternatus has higher base defense stats; he just isn't obtainable.

{{redirect|Mega|{{adv|Crystal}}'s {{p|Meganium}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]], which is known as Mega in [[Chuang Yi]] translations|Megaree}}
[[File:Mega Mewtwo vs Mega Lucario.png|thumb|250px|Mega Mewtwo Y vs Mega Lucario.]]

'''Mega Evolution''' (Japanese: '''メガシンカ''' ''Mega Evolution'') is a temporary transformation introduced in {{g|X and Y}} that affects certain {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It is present in the [[Generation]] {{gen|VI}} and {{gen|VII}} [[core series]] games, and is set to reappear in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}. In its core series absence, it has remained usable in multiple {{spin-off games}}, such as {{pkmn|GO}}, {{pkmn|Masters EX}}, and {{pkmn|UNITE}}.

There are currently 46 species of Pokémon that are capable of Mega Evolution, and there are currently 48 different Mega Evolutions.

==Terminology==
'''Mega Evolution''' is described as a phenomenon<ref>{{p|Roaring Moon}}'s [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet]] [[Pokédex]] entry: ''"According to an article in a dubious magazine, this Pokémon has some connection to a phenomenon that occurs in a certain region."''</ref> as well as the transformed Pokémon. The related verb is '''Mega Evolve'''.

The '''Mega Evolved''' Pokémon are identified by having "'''Mega'''" in front of their name, such as Mega {{p|Altaria}} or Mega {{p|Ampharos}}. In the case of {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Mewtwo}}, each of them has two Mega Evolutions with either the letter X or Y after the species name: Mega Charizard X, Mega Charizard Y, Mega Mewtwo X, and Mega Mewtwo Y. However, X and Y's demo called Mega Mewtwo Y simply "Mega Mewtwo."

Where "Mega Evolved" is used as an adjective for the word "Pokémon", it is rendered as "'''Mega-Evolved''' Pokémon", with a hyphen between the words.<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/strategy/elevate-heroic-hoenn-pokemon-with-mega-evolution Elevate Heroic Hoenn Pokémon with Mega Evolution], [[Pokémon.com]]</ref><ref>[https://press.pokemon.com/en/releases/Pokemon-Shuffle-Launch-Announced-New-Pokemon-Discovered-in-Pokemon-Ome Pokémon Shuffle Launch Announced, New Pokémon Discovered in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire], Press release, [[Pokémon.com]]</ref><ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/uk/strategy/a-guide-to-mega-evolution-in-pokemon-go A Guide to Mega Evolution in Pokémon GO], [[Pokémon.com]]</ref>

===History===
The history and origins of Mega Evolution are shrouded in mystery and apparent contradictions, with different characters and groups having their own beliefs on where the phenomenon originated. For instance, [[Professor Sycamore]] theorizes Mega Evolution originates from special stones, possibly [[Evolution stone]]s, that were irradiated by the light of {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}} that was fired from the [[ultimate weapon]] 3,000 years ago. Despite this, Sycamore additionally claims that Mega Evolution is a new type of [[Evolution]], and that the phenomenon only occurs in the [[Kalos]] [[region]].<ref>[[Professor Sycamore]]:''"It's only a hypothesis, but I think the bond between Pokémon and Trainer is the key to this new [[Evolution]]. But what is this bond, exactly? And why are there examples of Mega Evolution only in the Kalos region? There's still so much we don't know..." ([[Pokémon X and Y]])''</ref> Additionally, Sina, Sycamore's assistant who is in [[Alola]] on his behalf, makes claim that it is mysterious to be talking about Mega Evolution so far away from Kalos.<ref>[[Sina]]: ''"It's so mysterious... to be talking about Mega Evolution here, in a [[region]] so far away from [[Kalos]]..." ([[Pokémon Sun and Moon]]).''</ref>

However, the [[Draconid people]], an ancient tribe from the [[Hoenn]] region that worship {{p|Rayquaza}}, believe that Mega Evolution originates from Rayquaza and various meteorites that rained down upon the Hoenn region thousands of years ago.

According to knowledge passed down by the Draconids, during the long-lost primal age of Hoenn, one of the many disasters that struck the region were numerous meteorites that rained from space and landed in the home of the Draconids, [[Meteor Falls]], with these meteorites glowing a rainbow brilliance, not unlike the description of a [[Key Stone]], which attracted Rayquaza and led to it putting an end to the disasters and restoring peace.

One thousand years later, disasters befell the region once more, most notable was a massive meteorite described with boundless brilliance and directly compared to a Key Stone, that bore deep into the ocean and created what would eventually come to be the location of [[Sootopolis City]]; with the impact cracking the ground and releasing a wave of primal energy, causing {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} to awaken once more in their [[Primal Reversion|thirst for this power]]. This led the people to wish for Rayquaza to appear once more and save them, as it had done in the past, and once Rayquaza did appear, the people fell to their knees and wished for salvation, causing a great change to overtake Rayquaza as it Mega Evolved, with it using this power to defeat Groudon and Kyogre once again.

While the knowledge of the Draconids implies Rayquaza was the first Pokémon to Mega Evolve, an old [[Kalos]] legend from the [[Tower of Mastery]] tells of a Trainer and {{p|Lucario}} arriving in the region long ago, with the pair discovering two strange stones and subsequently leading to the world's first Mega Evolution.

The usage of Mega Evolution unleashes a massive amount of energy, as mentioned by [[Professor Cozmo]], which itself is implied to have a direct connection, if not outright be a Pokémon's own life force, as it's mentioned by [[Lysandre]] that Professor Sycamore believes Mega Evolution releases all of a Pokémon's hidden energy at once that can't be achieved via regular Evolution; this is coupled with [[Courtney]]{{sup/6|OR}}/[[Matt]]'s{{sup/6|AS}} attempt at causing a rocket filled with [[Infinity Energy]] to explode, with Matt outright claiming it'd be like Mega Evolving the rocket.

While [[Steven Stone]] claims what exactly Mega and Key Stones are is a mystery, [[Archie]], [[Maxie]], and the events of the [[Delta Episode]] show that meteorites contain their own latent power and under the right conditions can be turned into either Mega or Key Stones. This is directly demonstrated in {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, where the [[Meteorite]] slowly changes to resemble a Mega Stone over the course of the game, before it's eventually consumed by Rayquaza during the [[Delta Episode]]. While this allows the [[Legendary Pokémon]] to Mega Evolve without technically holding the stone, it's implied by [[Zinnia]] that Mega Stones, or at least the meteorites that fuel Rayquaza's Mega Evolution, eventually lose their power.

Similarly to Mega Stones, Key Stones can also be found in certain locations, such as Meteor Falls, where Matt found his.

In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], [[Colress]] questions whether or not [[Z-Power]] can surpass the Mega Ring.<ref>Colress: ''"[[Z-Power]]... Is it the true potential that I seek? Does it surpass the [[Mega Ring]]?" ([[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]])''</ref> [[Dexio]] and [[Sina]] directly imply that the two are similar due to the Trainer-Pokémon relational bond.<ref>[[Sina]]: ''"You know, when you think about it, the [[Z-Power Ring]] helps the feelings of a {{pkmn|Trainer}} reach their Pokémon so it can use its [[Z-Move]], right? It only follows that it should be able to achieve Mega Evolution, too!"'' ([[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]])</ref>

===In battle===
In the [[core series]] games, Mega Evolution requires the player to hold a [[Key Stone]] and a Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution holding its compatible [[Mega Stone]]. Only {{p|Rayquaza}} does not need a Mega Stone to Mega Evolve; instead, it must know the move {{m|Dragon Ascent}}. In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the player simply needs to have the required Mega Stone in their bag, since there is no held item feature. Although some most media describes that a strong bond with the Pokémon and their trainer is needed, neither [[Friendship]] or [[Affection]] is necessary to Mega Evolve in the games.

A Mega-Evolved Pokémon has different [[base stats]], with the exception of {{stat|HP}}, and can have a different [[Ability]] and [[type]] from its non-Mega-Evolved form. Every Mega-Evolved Pokémon (except for Mega Alakazam in Generation VI) has a base stat total 100 points higher than that of its base form

In any battle, each Trainer may Mega Evolve a single Pokémon once. Mega Evolution is essentially a free action a Pokémon may make in addition to its normal move, but if a Pokémon will not use a move, it cannot Mega Evolve. Mega Evolution occurs [[priority|before]] most actions except [[recall|switching]]. A Mega-Evolved Pokémon will only revert to its original state if it [[fainting|faints]] or the battle ends; if it is switched out, it will remain Mega Evolved.

A Pokémon cannot Mega Evolve if it is being held in the airborne phase of {{m|Sky Drop}}. Neither volatile nor non-volatile [[status condition]]s such as paralysis, sleep, and infatuation will have any effect over a Pokémon's ability to Mega Evolve, even if they result in the Pokémon not being able to move that turn.

Mega Stones are not affected by most moves or Abilities. If they would move a Mega Stone to or from a Pokémon that could use it to Mega Evolve, the moves {{m|Bestow}}, {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Fling}}, {{m|Thief}}, {{m|Trick}}, and {{m|Switcheroo}} will fail and the Abilities {{a|Magician}}, {{a|Pickpocket}} and {{a|Symbiosis}} will not activate. The move {{m|Knock Off}} cannot remove a Mega Stone from a Pokémon that can use it to Mega Evolve, and Knock Off's power will not be increased since it cannot remove the item. The moves {{m|Embargo}} and {{m|Magic Room}} and the Ability {{a|Klutz}} will not prevent a Pokémon from using its respective Mega Stone to Mega Evolve.

Changes in a Pokémon's [[Ability]] will take place immediately. A {{p|Sharpedo}} that normally has {{a|Speed Boost}} will not gain a boost in Speed at the end of the turn it Mega Evolves, but if it uses a biting move such as {{m|Crunch}} that turn, it will be boosted by {{a|Strong Jaw}}, its Ability as Mega Sharpedo.

A transformed Pokémon (either by {{m|Transform}} or {{a|Imposter}}) is unable to Mega Evolve. It will fail to Mega Evolve even if it is transformed into the correct species and it is holding the respective Mega Stone. However, it is possible to transform into a Mega-Evolved Pokémon by copying another Mega-Evolved Pokémon. The restriction of only one Mega Evolution per battle does not apply to transformed Pokémon.

====Generation VI====
In [[Generation VI]], performing Mega Evolution will not alter the turn order. A Pokémon with a lower Speed than their opponent will still go after them on the one turn the Mega Evolution occurs, even if their Mega Evolution increases Speed and would otherwise cause them to go first. The opposite is also true for Pokémon who lose Speed from Mega Evolution, such as {{p|Garchomp}}. However, turn order will be determined normally on every turn afterwards.

Otherwise, stat changes and type changes due to Mega Evolution take effect immediately and damage calculation proceeds as usual. For example, a Pokémon whose Mega Evolution has a lower base Defense stat takes greater damage from physical moves on the turn it Mega Evolves. Likewise, the move {{m|Gyro Ball}} considers the Pokémon's Speed stat after Mega Evolution for damage calculation, not before.

Likewise, even if a Pokémon only has an Ability such as {{a|Prankster}} before Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will gain priority. If a Pokémon gains Prankster upon Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will not gain priority.

When the player Mega Evolves a Pokémon for the first time since the save file is accessed, a longer animation than usual will play, showing the player activating the Mega Evolution with their [[Mega Bracelet]]. On subsequent uses of Mega Evolution, a shorter animation will play, showing only the Pokémon as it Mega Evolves.

====Generation VII====
In [[Generation VII]], a Pokémon's Speed after Mega Evolution is used to determine turn order, not its Speed before. Likewise, if a Pokémon only has an Ability such as {{a|Prankster}} before Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will not gain priority. If a Pokémon gains Prankster upon Mega Evolution, appropriate moves will gain priority.

{{p|Rayquaza}} cannot Mega Evolve if it holds a [[Z-Crystal]].

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], as the [[Held item]] mechanic is not implemented, the player simply needs to have the compatible Mega Stone in their bag to access a Pokémon's Mega Evolution. The player can also manually pick which form Charizard or Mewtwo can become from the move menu.

====Generation IX====
Mega Evolution is set to return in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]], after six years of absence.

===Outside of battle===
[[File:Mega Evolution Contest Spectacular.png|thumb|220px|A {{p|Gardevoir}} Mega Evolving in a Contest Spectacular]]
In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Mega Evolution can also occur during the {{pkmn|Contest#Secondary judging|Talent Round}} of [[Pokémon Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars]]. If the participating Pokémon is holding its corresponding Mega Stone when its [[appeal]] causes the audience's excitement to reach its peak, it will Mega Evolve and perform a {{DL|Appeal|Spectacular Talent}}. The Pokémon will remain Mega Evolved for the remainder of the Talent Round.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, when summoned by the [[Eon Flute]], {{p|Latios}}{{sup/6|OR}} or {{p|Latias}}{{sup/6|AS}} will Mega Evolve before the player mounts it to [[soaring in the sky|soar in the sky]]. It will Mega Evolve even if it is not holding its corresponding Mega Stone, since the Eon Pokémon is summoned even if it is no longer in the player's game.

==In the spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon GO]]===
{{main|Mega Evolution (GO)}}
Mega Evolution was introduced in Pokémon GO on August 27, 2020. Rather than using a [[Mega Stone]], an eligible Pokémon instead consumes [[Mega Energy]] to undergo a temporary Mega Evolution.

===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
{{main|Mega Evolution (Masters)}}
Certain [[sync pair]]s can Mega Evolve their Pokémon by performing a [[sync move]] in Pokémon Masters EX since the game's launch.

===[[Pokémon UNITE]]===
{{main|Mewtwo (Unite License X)}}
{{main|Mewtwo (Unite License Y)}}
{{p|Mewtwo}} can become [[Mewtwo (Unite License X)|Mega Mewtwo X]] or [[Mewtwo (Unite License Y)|Mega Mewtwo Y]]. This is facilitated by its {{a|Pressure}} [[Ability]], which has a Mega gauge which is filled by using [[basic attack]]s and {{UNITE|move}}s on members of the opposing team. If the gauge is full, and Mewtwo is at least [[Level]] 5, it will Mega Evolve.

Unlike in the [[core series]], Mewtwo can only be Mega Evolved for a set amount of time, delineated by the Mega gauge draining back to empty, after which it returns to being a normal Mewtwo. However, Mewtwo can refill its Mega gauge to Mega Evolve multiple times in the same battle. When Mega Evolved, Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Mewtwo Y have different basic attacks and increased stats compared to Mewtwo.

Starting from version 1.14.1.2, Mewtwo spends some of the [[Aeos energy]] it is holding when it Mega Evolves. The Mega Evolution will last longer if Mewtwo uses up more Aeos energy.

There are two [[Unite License]]s for Mewtwo. While both of them allow for using Mewtwo in a [[Unite Battle]], each one has separate characteristics. Only the Unite License X one Mega Evolves into Mega Mewtwo X, while the Unite License Y one Mega Evolves into Mega Mewtwo Y.

===Super Smash Bros. series===
====[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]====
{{SSB|Charizard}} and {{SSB|Lucario}}'s [[Final Smash]]es are both Mega Evolution, which transforms them into Mega Charizard X and Mega Lucario, respectively. This Mega Evolution acts as a temporary power-up for the duration of the Final Smash.

{{SSB|Mewtwo}}'s Final Smash is {{m|Psystrike}}, which has it Mega Evolve into Mega Mewtwo Y then use Psystrike.

Mega Venusaur and Mega Blastoise appear as trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. Mega {{p|Blastoise}}, Mega {{p|Blaziken}}, Mega {{p|Kangaskhan}}, Mega {{p|Venusaur}}, Mega {{p|Lucario}}, Mega {{p|Mewtwo}} X, Mega Mewtwo Y, and Mega {{p|Charizard}} X appear as trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

====[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]====
Mewtwo retains its [[Final Smash]] Psystrike from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U, which still causes it to Mega Evolve into Mega Mewtwo Y.

Lucario's Final Smash, Aura Storm, has it Mega Evolve into Mega Lucario in order to use it.

Mega Charizard X, Mega Kangaskhan, Mega Mewtwo Y, Mega Lucario, and Mega {{p|Diancie}} appear as {{sbw|Spirit}}s.

===[[Pokémon Shuffle]]===
{{main|Mega Evolution (Shuffle)}}
Before a Pokémon's Mega Evolution can be used in Pokémon Shuffle, its respective [[Mega Stone]] must be obtained (or in {{p|Rayquaza}}'s case, the [[File:Meteorite Shuffle.png|link=]] [[Meteorite]]). Methods to obtain a Mega Stone include:
* Defeating a Pokémon's Mega-Evolved form in a {{pkmn|Trainer}} battle, usually at the end of each {{DL|Stage (Shuffle)|Main stage|main stage area}}.
* Completing certain objectives on [[Mission Card]]s.
* Reaching certain {{OBP|Trainer rank|Shuffle}}s by catching several different species of Pokémon.
* Achieving a high rank in a [[competitive stage]].
* Clearing certain milestone stages in an [[escalation battle]].

The Pokémon placed in the first position (furthest to the left) when selecting {{DL|Pokémon Shuffle|Support Pokémon}} will Mega Evolve after the player fills the Mega Gauge. This is filled by matching the Pokémon being Mega Evolved, or by matching Pokémon with the {{DL|Skill (Shuffle)|Mega Boost}}({{DL|Skill (Shuffle)|Mega Boost+|+}}, {{DL|Skill (Shuffle)|Mega Boost++|++}}) {{OBP|Skill|Shuffle}}s who are of the same [[type]] as the Pokémon being Mega Evolved. The size of the Mega Gauge depends on the Pokémon being Mega Evolved, with each Pokémon requiring different numbers of icons to be matched to fill its gauge. The maximum amount of icons needed to fill the gauge can be permanently decreased by using [[File:Mega Speedup.png|20px|link=]] Mega Speedup {{DL|List of items in Pokémon Shuffle|Enhancements}}, with each Pokémon having a different maximum amount of Mega Speedups they can take.

Once a Pokémon is Mega Evolved, its skill is replaced by its Mega Effect for the remainder of the battle. Mega Effect varies between Pokémon.

===[[Pokémon Rumble World]]===
The player gains the ability to Mega Evolve their Pokémon after completing the challenge "Raid of the Mighty General", then receiving the Special Stone Shop and a Mega Key from the rewards section of the ordinary shop. [[Mega Stone]]s for currently owned Pokémon can be bought and immediately attached to its corresponding Pokémon using the Special Stone Shop. The first Mega Stone of the player's choice is free (unless either the [[Red Orb|Red]] or [[Blue Orb]] is chosen instead) and every one after it costs 5 Poké Diamonds. During battle, Mega Evolution can be performed by tapping the Mega Evolution button using a Pokémon equipped with a Mega Stone in battle. Mega Evolution can be used again on any Pokémon in the same battle, unlike in the main games.

Mega-Evolved Pokémon revert after a completed trip, or when they are defeated or switched out. Mega Evolving will send out a shockwave that damages enemy Pokémon. This shockwave is capable of defeating and tipping over opposing Pokémon. Additionally, it also resets any negative status conditions or status changes the Pokémon had before Mega Evolving.

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
{{Incomplete|section|Information for Stat modifiers while Mega Evolved}}

====[[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]]====
[[File:Mega Evolution ingame PSMD.png|thumb|left|250px|Mega Evolution in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]]
[[File:Berserk PSMD.png|thumb|250px|Mega Alakazam in Berserk mode]]
Mega Evolution allows Pokémon to become more powerful, attack multiple enemies, and break down walls. To achieve Mega Evolution, the player must find an [[File:MDBag Awakening Emera VI Sprite.png]] [[Emera#List of emeras|Awakening Emera]] in a Dungeon. These [[Emera]]s can be attached to a Looplet of a Pokémon that can Mega Evolve, causing it to Mega Evolve immediately. A Looplet attached with an Awakening emera will have a rainbow glow [[File:MDBag Looplet 3 VI Sprite.png]]. Should it be given to {{p|Mewtwo}} or {{p|Charizard}}, their Mega Evolution will be chosen randomly.

A bar will appear above the Mega-Evolved Pokémon after it transforms and will slowly start to fill up. As long as the bar is present, the Mega-Evolved Pokémon will keep their form even when moving to the next floor. Once the bar is filled, the Mega-Evolved Pokémon will go into {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Miscellaneous status conditions|Berserk mode}}. In Berserk mode, the Pokémon will move around and use a powerful attack on any Pokémon surrounding it, friend and foe alike. This will go away after a while, and the Pokémon will revert to normal. When Mega Evolved, its regular attack will get a huge boost in power and range, destroy walls, and reveal purple sparkling spots on the floor which can be picked up for an item.

Attaching an Awakening Emera to a Pokémon that cannot Mega Evolve increases its stats by a lot and give it different boosts. Pokémon that cannot Mega Evolve with an Awakening Emera attached will not go into Berserk mode.

Awakening Emeras are hard to find and appear randomly in dungeons; like other Emeras, they will disappear if they are not reached in time.
{{-}}

====[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX]]====
Mega Evolution returns in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX, and in this game is achieved by eating an Empowerment Seed. Mega Evolved Pokémon also have all of the bonuses granted by the Awakened status: linked moves always result in critical hits, moves will never miss, and moves will ignore unfavorable type matchups. Compared to the Awakened status, the only additional bonus Mega Evolution grants is the potential to change a Pokémon's type and ability.

As in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, if {{p|Mewtwo}} or {{p|Charizard}} Mega Evolves, their Mega Evolution will be chosen randomly.

Some bosses will also undergo Mega Evolution or Primal Reversion:
* During {{p|Rayquaza}}'s rematch or Mewtwo's boss fight, both will Mega Evolve once their health drops below one half of their total. Mewtwo will Mega Evolve randomly into Mega Mewtwo X or Mega Mewtwo Y.
* Similarly, {{p|Groudon}} (during its rematch) and {{p|Kyogre}} (during its boss fight) will undergo Primal Reversion once below half of their total health.

===[[Pokémon Picross]]===
Once a player purchases a Mega Pencil from [[Professor Tetra]] for 500 Picrites, puzzles for Mega Evolutions can be solved. Furthermore, murals can be solved one tile at a time to display {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}'s Primal Reversions (however, murals do not require the Mega Pencil).

Only one Mega Evolution can be set at one time, and they cannot be brought alongside their normal forms. Their skills are higher ranked than their normal counterpart, and they can be used on larger puzzles.

===[[Pokkén Tournament]]===
{{pokken|Lucario}}, {{pokken|Garchomp}}, {{pokken|Gardevoir}}, {{pokken|Gengar}}, {{pokken|Charizard}}, {{pokken|Blaziken}}, {{pokken|Sceptile}}, {{pokken|Scizor}}, {{pokken|Blastoise}}, {{pokken|Mewtwo}}, and [[Shadow Mewtwo]] are able to Mega Evolve through Synergy Burst, with Charizard and both of the Mewtwo Mega Evolving into their X forms. Mega Evolution can be triggered whenever a Pokémon capable of it has its Synergy Gauge filled up to the max during a battle. The Mega Evolved Pokémon will revert to its regular form once it has used up all of its [[Synergy]] power.

In addition, every time when Shadow Mewtwo is fought against in the game's story mode, it will Mega Evolve before the battle begins and stay in this state for the entire fight.

On the [[Dragon's Nest]] battle stage, Mega {{p|Rayquaza}} appears in the form of both an enormous statue alongside the battle arena and a drawing on the ground of the battle arena. On the [[Old Ferrum Town (Winter)]] battle stage, Mega {{p|Swampert}} appears in the form of a giant snow sculpture. Mega Rayquaza itself is also a Support Pokémon available as part of the Pokkén Tournament DX Battle Pack.

==In animation==
[[File:Blaziken Mask Mega Blaziken.png|250px|thumb|Mega Blaziken in ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'']]
===Pokémon animated series===
Multiple Mega Evolutions have been featured in the [[Pokémon animated series]].
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
* The first Mega Evolution in animated series-related media was featured in ''[[Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening]]'', where {{OBP|Mewtwo|M16}} was shown to be capable of changing between its regular form and Mega Mewtwo Y, in which its speed was dramatically boosted, being capable of moving faster than the blink of an eye. The same Mewtwo also played a major role in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', once again demonstrating its Mega Evolution capabilities. Unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}, this Mewtwo seemed to be capable of Mega Evolving without the use of a [[Mega Stone]]. However, because the concept of Mega Evolution had not been announced at the time of the movie's release, this transformation remains unnamed in the movie. Some Japanese promotional material for the movie as well as its {{ma|Genesect and the Legend Awakened|manga adaptation}} referred to it as Mewtwo's ''Awakened Form'' (覚醒した姿).<ref>[http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130618180918/http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2013/06/130615_m02.html?a001=news ポケモン映画最新作『神速のゲノセクトミュウツー覚醒』へと続くオリジナルストーリーが、テレビで放送決定！]</ref>

====''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''====
* The first Mega Evolution in an animated series episode was featured in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', where {{Ash}} saw a Mega {{p|Blaziken}}. In the [[XY002|next episode]], it was revealed to belong to a masked hero called the [[Blaziken Mask]], saving Ash from a free fall from the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]]. It has since been seen helping Ash and {{ashfr}} on numerous occasions.
* A Mega {{p|Ampharos}} and a Mega {{p|Charizard}} X appeared as silhouettes in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'' while {{an|Professor Sycamore}} told Ash, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}} about the concept of Mega Evolution.
* In ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Alain]] was featured traveling across the [[Kalos]] [[region]] with his Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X, challenging other Mega Evolution Trainers. During the episode, Alain battled [[Astrid]]'s Mega {{p|Absol}} and [[Remo]]'s Mega {{p|Garchomp}}, and was victorious in both battles. Later in the special, he even faced the [[Elite Four]] member [[Siebold]] and his Mega {{p|Blastoise}}, but the powerful {{type|Water}} Pokémon proved to be too much for Charizard, causing Alain to lose the battle.
** All known Mega Evolutions released at the time were also featured during the intro of the aforementioned special episode.
* [[Diantha]]'s Mega {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} first appeared in ''[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]'', using its Mega Evolution powers to break free from {{TRT}}'s binds.
* {{an|Korrina}} has a {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}} that can Mega Evolve, and so does her grandfather [[Gurkinn]], as shown in ''[[XY032|The Aura Storm!]]''. In ''[[XY043|Origins of Mega Evolution!]]'', it was shown in a flashback how one of Gurkinn's ancestors discovered a [[Key Stone]], while his Lucario discovered a [[Lucarionite]], leading to the first known Mega Evolution.
* In ''[[XY033|Calling from Beyond the Aura!]]'', Korrina told Ash and his friends about a Trainer she had once met who had used a Mega Ampharos.
* A Trainer named [[Mabel]] and her Mega {{p|Mawile}} appeared in ''[[XY034|The Bonds of Mega Evolution!]]''.
* {{an|Diancie}} Mega Evolved in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'' in order to protect the [[Allearth Forest]] from {{OBP|Yveltal|M17}} and restore the [[Diamond Domain]] by creating a new Heart Diamond. At the end of the movie, it was shown that a diamond Diancie had created and given to {{an|Bonnie}} earlier caused it to Mega Evolve, acting as a Key Stone.
* During the intro of ''Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction'', [[Wikstrom]] is seen Mega Evolving his {{p|Scizor}} in a battle against Diantha and her Mega Gardevoir.
* {{an|Steven Stone}}'s {{Shiny}} Mega {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} appeared in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', as well as Mega {{p|Rayquaza}}. Both reappeared in ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]''.
** The intro of the aforementioned special episode also featured all [[#Introduced in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|newly revealed Mega Evolutions]].
* A Mega {{p|Sableye}} appeared in ''[[XY051|When Light and Dark Collide!]]'' as part of ''[[Mega Evolution Pokédex Short|Mairin's Mega Evolution Journal]]''.
* At the end of ''Mega Evolution Special III'', Alain was seen battling a Trainer with a Mega {{p|Tyranitar}}.
* [[Professor Sycamore's Garchomp]] achieved Mega Evolution for the first time and Mega Evolved into a Mega Garchomp in ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]''.
* The {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, and {{Shiny}} Rayquaza that {{an|Hoopa}} summoned in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'' all Mega Evolved during the movie. Much like the Mewtwo from [[M16|the sixteenth movie]], they were able to Mega Evolve without a Key Stone or their respective Mega Stones.
* In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', Alain battled ten Mega-Evolved Pokémon and their Trainers in a row, including Mega {{p|Venusaur}}, Mega {{p|Alakazam}}, Mega {{p|Heracross}}, Mega Scizor, Mega Ampharos, Mega {{p|Aggron}}, and Mega {{p|Pinsir}}. The final Trainer of the row was the [[Elite Four]] member [[Malva]], who used a Mega {{p|Houndoom}}. At the end of the episode, Alain was also seen battling a Trainer with a Mega {{p|Banette}}.
* A Mega {{TP|Nurse Joy|Audino}} appeared in ''[[XY096|A Giga Battle with Mega Results!]]'', under the ownership of a [[Nurse Joy]].
* In ''[[XY122|A Real Icebreaker!]]'', [[Wulfric]] Mega Evolved his {{p|Abomasnow}} into Mega Abomasnow to fight against [[Ash's Greninja]] during their [[Gym]] battle.
* A Mega Alakazam, Mega {{p|Glalie}}, Mega {{p|Pidgeot}}, Mega {{p|Steelix}}, Shiny Mega {{p|Gengar}}, Shiny Mega Gardevoir, and several other Mega-Evolved Pokémon appeared in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''. With the exception of [[Kimia]]'s Shiny Mega Gardevoir, they were forcibly Mega Evolved by a special device known as Mega Wave, which was being used by [[Alva]] and his minions [[Levi]] and [[Cherie]]. A Mega Wave evolved Mega {{p|Heracross}} and Mega {{p|Pinsir}} were also loaned to {{TRT}}.
* A Mega {{TP|Trevor|Charizard}} Y owned by {{an|Trevor}} appeared in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'' during his [[Lumiose Conference]] battle against Alain.
* A Mega {{TP|Sawyer|Sceptile}} owned by [[Sawyer]] appeared in ''[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]'' during his quarterfinal battle in [[Lumiose Conference]] against {{an|Tierno}}.
* [[Lysandre]]'s {{Shiny}} Mega {{p|Gyarados}} debuted in ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', where it battled {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} and Alain's Charizard. It managed to knock out four of Ash's Pokémon, but was finally defeated in ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]''.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''====
* A Mega Gyarados appeared in a fantasy in ''[[SM033|Big Sky, Small Fry!]]'', where {{an|Lana}} joked about being able to catch one at [[Brooklet Hill]].
* [[Brock's Steelix]] and [[Misty's Gyarados]] Mega Evolved into Mega {{p|Steelix}} and Mega {{p|Gyarados}} in ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', while battling [[Kiawe's Turtonator]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]], respectively.
* [[Gozu]]'s {{p|Aggron}} Mega Evolved into Mega Aggron in ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'' to battle {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s {{p|Braviary}} and {{an|Faba}}'s {{p|Alakazam}} and {{p|Hypno}}.
* [[Ilima]]'s {{p|Kangaskhan}} Mega Evolved into Mega Kangaskhan in ''[[SM130|Battling Besties!]]'' to battle [[Guzma]]'s {{p|Scizor}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:X full Mega Evolution Adventures.png|250px|thumb|X's team achieving multiple Mega Evolutions at once in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
At first, Mega Evolution was portrayed as a relatively unknown phenomenon, known only to [[Gurkinn]] and his Successors. Since then, it became apparent that [[Team Flare]] were also after the power of Mega Evolution, with one member even compiling a list of [[Mega Stones]] that they discovered. Simultaneous Mega Evolutions can also be accomplished by a Trainer, as long as they have a Key Stone for each Pokémon they are Mega Evolving. However, doing so will cause severe mental stress on the Trainer, and they will be unable to focus on anything other than a single target until the Mega Evolution is undone.
*When [[Team Flare]] members [[Aliana]] and [[Mable]] arrived in [[Vaniville Town]] in order to steal {{adv|X}}'s [[Mega Ring]], the commotion caused X's baby {{p|Kangaskhan}}, [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Li'l Kanga]], to react with X's Mega Ring and Mega Evolve into Mega Kangaskhan, easily defeating Aliana's {{p|Pyroar}} and Mable's {{p|Houndoom}}.
*When X and his friends were attacked by Team Flare in [[Santalune City]], [[Korrina]] arrived and Mega Evolved her {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}} into Mega Lucario to assist them.
*In [[Lysandre Café]], [[Diantha]] had her {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} Mega Evolve into Mega Gardevoir to make Lysandre back off from attacking {{adv|Trevor}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, and {{adv|Tierno}}.
*The Mega Evolutions of {{p|Aerodactyl}}, {{p|Aggron}}, {{p|Ampharos}}, {{p|Mawile}} and {{p|Garchomp}} made cameos when Gurkinn explained Mega Evolution to [[Emma|Essentia]] during her raid on the [[Tower of Mastery]]. In the subsequent chapter, Gurkinn Mega Evolved his {{p|Heracross}}.
*During Korrina's succession ceremony, [[Gurkinn's students|three Successors]] demonstrated Mega Evolution to her by Mega Evolving their {{p|Medicham}}, {{p|Scizor}} and {{p|Alakazam}} respectively.
*While visiting [[Lumiose City]], X met an {{p|Electrike}}, which led him to a [[Manectite]], evolving into {{p|Manectric}} in the process. Later, Manectric joins X's team, Mega Evolving into Mega Manectric while facing a {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}.
*During a battle against [[Team Flare]], Gurkinn's {{p|Gengar}} protected X from [[Celosia]]'s {{p|Aegislash}}. It helped battle against Team Flare to stop them from capturing {{p|Xerneas}} while in tree form. It was later given it to X, at which point he nicknamed it Garma. Garma has a Gengarite, which allows X to Mega Evolve it into Mega Gengar.
*While confronting Essentia, X's Rute and Y's Solsol are given their respective Mega Stones, allowing them to Mega Evolve into Mega Pinsir and Mega Absol respectively.
*Both X's [[Salamè]] and [[Blue's Charizard]] Mega Evolved into Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y respectively, after defeating [[Xerosic]]'s Pokémon.
*After reuniting with [[Blaine]], {{adv|Mewtwo}} gained the ability to Mega Evolve into both Mega Mewtwo X and Y. Due to their bond, Mewtwo is able to Mega Evolve more than once per battle.
*[[Gurkinn's students]] Mega Evolved their {{p|Houndoom}}, {{p|Tyranitar}}, {{p|Mawile}}, {{p|Banette}}, and {{p|Abomasnow}} for Trevor to study.

===={{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}====
The role of Mega Evolution was diminished but its accessibility continued to be confined to a selected number of Trainers.
*In ''[[PS597|Latias Flies]]'', {{adv|Ruby}}, {{adv|Sapphire}}, and {{adv|Emerald}} were shown learning how to Mega Evolve their Pokémon from [[Ultima]]. Sapphire and Emerald were seen mastering it in ''[[PS599|Salamence Evolves]]'', where they Mega Evolved their respective first partner Pokémon, [[Chic|Blaziken]] and {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}}.
*In ''[[PS598|Claydol Unleashes]]'', Ruby was able to successfully Mega Evolve Latios into Mega Latios, allowing them to [[soaring in the sky|soar into the sky]]. He soon arrived at the [[Sky Pillar]], where he met and battled [[Zinnia]], who used her Mega {{TP|Zinnia|Salamence}} against Mega Latios.
*In ''[[PS602|Hoopa Distorts]]'', {{Steven}} Mega Evolved his {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} into Mega Metagross with his Mega Stickpin.
*In ''[[PS603|Slowbro Has an Idea]]'', [[Jinga]] of the [[Draconid people]] Mega Evolved his Slowbro into Mega Slowbro in his battle against Ruby.
*In ''[[PS604|Goodra Spits]]'', Ruby Mega Evolved [[Mumu]] into Mega Swampert.
*In ''[[PS607|Blastoise Transforms]]'', [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] used their Mega Glasses and Mega Anchor to Mega Evolve their Camerupt and Sharpedo into Mega {{p|Camerupt}} and Mega {{p|Sharpedo}} respectively. In retaliation, {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Green}} Mega Evolved [[Saur]] and [[Blasty]] into Mega {{p|Venusaur}} and Mega {{p|Blastoise}} respectively to battle them.
*In [[PS611]], footage of Rayquaza Mega Evolving was seen.
*In [[PS616]], {{adv|Giovanni}} Mega Evolved his {{TP|Giovanni|Beedrill}} as part of his explanation that the meteoroid headed for Hoenn may be housing a Pokémon inside of it, since Mega Evolution is only supposed to work within a battle. Later, Sapphire and Ruby Mega Evolved [[Kirly]] and [[Rara]] into Mega Gallade and Mega Gardevoir respectively during a brief battle against each other.
*In ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'', Ruby and Sapphire Mega Evolved {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} in order to have it destroy [[Grand Meteor Delta]]. Later, Ruby Mega Evolved {{p|Diancie}} for a Pokémon Contest Spectacular Performance.

===Pocket Monsters XY: The Legend of the Pokémon Dragon King===
In [[Pocket Monsters XY: The Legend of the Pokémon Dragon King]], several main characters' Pokémon are capable of Mega Evolution, including {{OBP|Akira|LDK}}'s {{p|Charizard}}, {{OBP|Koji|LDK}}'s {{p|Garchomp}}, and [[Taichi]]'s {{p|Ampharos}}.

===Pokémon Journeys===
During a flashback in ''[[JNM10|Toughing It Out!]]'', it was revealed that Ash fought {{an|Korrina}}'s Mega {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}} in a [[World Coronation Series]] battle.

==In the TCG==
Mega Evolution is mainly featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] as {{TCG|Pokémon-EX|Mega Evolution Pokémon}}. Their names have {{Mega}} as a prefix and {{EX}} as a suffix. They additionally have a distinct stage of "MEGA". Naturally, these are also {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}}. They were added as a new mechanic to the game in the {{TCG|XY}} set as an evolution of Pokémon-EX cards. Mega Evolving a Pokémon immediately ends a player's turn, unless that Pokémon has its specific Spirit Link [[Trainer card (TCG)#Pokémon Tool|Pokémon Tool]] attached to it.

[[Atsushi Nagashima]], the game director for the TCG, has stated that Mega Evolution is exclusive to Pokémon-EX because it would be impractical to evolve a single Pokémon three times during a game, and implementing Mega Evolution in that manner would constrain deck-building.<ref>[https://www.gamespot.com/articles/how-pokemon-cards-are-made/1100-6459450/ How Pokemon Cards Are Made | GameSpot]</ref> The team had considered restricting players to one Mega-Evolved Pokémon per deck, but rejected this idea, as they wanted to enable players to build decks based around Mega Evolution.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140101195743/https://www.pokemon-card.com/blog/2013/12/000367.html クリエイター～ゲームディレクター長島敦スペシャル対談～ | pokemon-card.com,] archived January 1st, 2014</ref>

In [[Unified Minds]] and [[Cosmic Eclipse]], two {{TCG|TAG TEAM}} [[Pokémon-GX]] were printed that feature Mega Evolved Pokémon as one of the two members of the tag team. These cards have no special mechanics outside of those which are part of the TAG TEAM mechanics.

The following is a list of cards mentioning or featuring Mega Evolved Pokémon in the Trading Card Game.

==Trivia==
* According to [[Ken Sugimori]] in his interview in the Nintendo Dream magazine, {{p|Flygon}} was intended to get a Mega Evolution in [[Pokémon X and Y]], but the [[List of unused Pokémon and character designs#Pokémon designs|idea was later dropped]] due to him experiencing an artist's block.<ref>[https://www.pokebeach.com/2015/04/mega-flygon-excluded-from-xyoras-because-of-artists-block Mega Flygon Excluded from XY/ORAS Because of Artist's Block, PokeBeach,] translation of Nintendo Dream interview scan</ref>
* There is at least one Mega Evolved {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of every [[type]]: {{t|Psychic}} has the most (with ten), while both {{t|Ice}} and {{t|Electric}} have the fewest (with two each).
** Electric is the only type for which no new Mega Evolution was introduced in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]].
* {{p|Gardevoir}} and {{p|Gallade}} are the only Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution that are in the same evolutionary line.
** Gallade is the only Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution that [[Evolution|evolves]] from exposure to an [[Evolution stone]].
* Only Pokémon which cannot evolve further are capable of Mega Evolution.
** {{p|Aerodactyl}} is the only [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]] capable of Mega Evolution.
** {{p|Audino}} is the only Pokémon from [[Generation V]] capable of Mega Evolution.
** {{p|Diancie}} is the only Pokémon from [[Generation VI]] and [[Mythical Pokémon]] capable of Mega Evolution.
*No Mega Evolved Pokémon receives an increase to its HP stat.
**{{p|Garchomp|Mega Garchomp}} has the highest base HP stat of any Mega Evolved Pokémon, at 108.
*{{p|Aggron|Mega Aggron}} and {{p|Steelix|Mega Steelix}} are tied with {{p|Shuckle}} as having the highest base Defense stat of all obtainable Pokémon, at 230.
*{{p|Latias|Mega Latias}} has the highest base Special Defense stat of any Mega Evolved Pokémon, at 150.
*{{p|Alakazam|Mega Alakazam}} and {{p|Aerodactyl|Mega Aerodactyl}} are tied as having the highest base Speed stat of any Mega Evolved Pokémon, at 150.
* With {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 780|base stat totals of 780}}, Mega Mewtwo X, Mega Mewtwo Y, and Mega Rayquaza have the highest base stat totals of any obtainable Pokémon. Eternamax {{p|Eternatus}} has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon at 1125, but cannot be used by the player.
** In addition, Mega Mewtwo Y has the highest base Special Attack of all Pokémon at 194, and Mega Mewtwo X has the highest base Attack of all Pokémon at 190. Mega Mewtwo X also has the highest base stat increase of all Mega Evolutions, its Attack stat being boosted by 80 upon the process.
*{{p|Sableye}} and {{p|Mawile}} have the lowest base stats totals of any Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution, at 380.
*Several Mega Evolution Pokémon reduce some of their base stats to increase others, those being:
**{{p|Beedrill|Mega Beedrill}}: 45 → 15 Special Attack
**{{p|Mewtwo|Mega Mewtwo Y}}: 90 → 70 Defense
**{{p|Ampharos|Mega Ampharos}}: 55 → 45 Speed
**{{p|Heracross|Mega Heracross}}: 85 → 75 Speed
**{{p|Sableye|Mega Sableye}}: 50 → 20 Speed
**{{p|Camerupt|Mega Camerupt}}: 40 → 20 Speed
**{{p|Garchomp|Mega Garchomp}}: 102 → 92 Speed
**{{p|Abomasnow|Mega Abomasnow}}: 60 → 30 Speed
**{{p|Diancie|Mega Diancie}}: 150 → 110 Defense & 150 → 110 Special Defense
* {{p|Aggron}} is the only dual-type Pokémon to become single-type upon Mega Evolving, going from {{2t|Steel|Rock}}-type to pure {{type|Steel}}.
* The only Pokémon with multiple Mega Evolutions are {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Mewtwo}}, which have two each and were introduced in [[Generation I]]. In both cases, the first ones to be revealed were the Y versions.
** In addition, both of their Y Mega Evolutions kept their original type(s), while both of their X Mega Evolutions changed or added their secondary type.
** Also, in both cases, the X Mega Evolution is more physically-oriented (with a higher Attack and/or Defense), while the Y Mega Evolution is more specially-oriented (with a higher Special Attack and/or Special Defense).
* Rayquaza is the only Pokémon that does not require a [[Mega Stone]] to Mega Evolve in the core series games, instead being required to know {{m|Dragon Ascent}}.
** This makes Rayquaza the only Pokémon that can have a different held item while Mega Evolved, since Mega Stones cannot be taken off their proper holder during battle.
** It is, furthermore, the only Pokémon to lack the message "(The opposing) <Pokémon>'s <[[Mega Stone]]> is reacting to its [[Key Stone]]!" when it Mega Evolves, as it has the message "<player>'s fervent wish has reached Rayquaza!" instead.
** In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], Rayquaza needs the player to get the Meteorite for it to Mega Evolve.
** Although Rayquaza can learn Dragon Ascent in Generation VIII onward, it cannot Mega Evolve in those games.
* Mega {{p|Latias}} and Mega {{p|Latios}} are programmed into {{g|X and Y}}; as a result, they are not banned by the Kalos rules from battles, and their Mega Stones are not banned from trades between Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire and X or Y, despite being otherwise unavailable in those games.
* The Japanese and Korean logos for [[Pokémon X and Y]] include the Mega Evolution sigil.
* In the Pokémon X and Y demo, the message "''An immense new power has risen in Mewtwo!''" would be displayed before Mega Evolving. In the final game, the message displayed is "''<Pokémon>'s <Mega Stone> is reacting to <Trainer>'s <Key Stone item>!''" Additionally, Mega Mewtwo Y is referred to as simply Mega Mewtwo.
* Mega {{p|Altaria}} is the only Mega Evolved Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique type combination]].
* Mega {{p|Kangaskhan}} and Mega {{p|Rayquaza}} are the only Mega Pokémon which have a [[signature Ability]].
* If not counting {{pkmn|movie}}s or the [[Mega Evolution Specials]], overall twenty-two Mega Evolutions have yet to appear in an {{pkmn|animated series}} episode.

** Mega {{p|Steelix}}, Mega Aggron, and Mega Kangaskhan made their animated series debut in {{aniseries|SM}}.
** Mega {{p|Venusaur}}, Mega {{p|Alakazam}}, Mega {{p|Slowbro}}, Mega {{p|Camerupt}}, and Mega Altaria, made their animated series debut in {{aniseries|JN}}.
* No Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution has an exclusive [[Z-Move]].
* Due to Mega Evolution being absent from Generation VIII onward, this have affected the status of some Abilities:
** {{a|Delta Stream}}, {{a|Parental Bond}}, and {{a|Aerilate}} are currently unusable.
** {{a|Pixilate}} and {{a|Refrigerate}} became the current signature Ability of {{p|Sylveon}} and {{p|Amaura}} evolutionary line, respectively.
* Slowbro is the only Pokémon to have both a Mega Evolution and a [[regional form]].
* The fully evolved [[Kanto first partner Pokémon]] and {{p|Gengar}} are the only Pokémon that can both Mega Evolve and [[Gigantamax]].
* In contrast to the other [[Paradox Pokémon]], {{p|Roaring Moon}} and {{p|Iron Valiant}} bear resemblance to Mega Evolved forms of the Pokémon they are based on rather than the basic form.
* The [[Pokédex]] description for Roaring Moon in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet]] makes a reference to Mega Evolution.
* The lore behind Mega Evolutions remains inconsistent in how it affects the Pokémon who undergo it. In X and Y, it was stated to be the bond between a Trainer and Pokémon, and no ill effects are implied. In Sun and Moon and Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the Pokédex makes it clear that Mega Evolution is harmful; however, in Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee, the Pokédex goes back to the bond with a Trainer and harmless entries.

Tower duo

Flashlight237: Grammar fix.

{{unknown name}}
[[File: 2020 Legendary Pokemon Gen II.jpg|250px|thumb|Promotional art of Lugia and Ho-Oh for the [[The Crown Tundra]] by [[Nejita]]<ref name=CrownTundraWallpaper>[https://archive.is/Gsx7e The poke_times account confirming Nejita drew the Lugia & Ho-Oh wallpaper for The Crown Tundra.]</ref>]]
The '''Tower duo''' is a fan term for the [[Legendary duo]] consisting of {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}. They reside in the [[Johto]] region. Lugia and Ho-Oh are the guardian of the seas and the skies, respectively, and are often regarded as polar opposites. "Tower duo" comes from the fact they used to perch at the [[Burned Tower|Brass]] and [[Bell Tower]]s.

==Overview==
Lugia, the mascot of {{game|Gold and Silver|s|Pokémon Silver}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|Pokémon SoulSilver}}, represents the sea, storms, and the color silver. Ho-Oh, the mascot of {{game|Gold and Silver|s|Pokémon Gold}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|Pokémon HeartGold}}, represents the sky, rainbows, and the color gold. Both are also associated with their own [[Legendary trio]]s: Lugia is associated with the [[legendary birds]], while Ho-Oh is associated with the [[Legendary beasts]]; however, the former is only in the anime.

==History and myths==
The legend of the Tower duo is introduced in [[Generation II]]. The legend was also expanded in both the remakes and the anime shorts ''[[PG06|The Reawakening]]'' and ''[[PE07|The Show]]''. About 700 years before the events of Generation II, the people of [[Ecruteak City]] built two nine-tier towers, hoping to foster both friendship and hope between Pokémon and [[human]]s. The two towers were known as the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] and [[Bell Tower]]. The west tower was said to awaken Pokémon, while in the east tower, the Pokémon chose to stop and rest there. Both towers were also the homes of Lugia and Ho-Oh. Lugia resides in Brass Tower and Ho-oh resides in the Bell Tower. For a time, there was peace and a close bond between the people and the Tower duo.

However, about 550 years later, a tragedy happened one night under the moon. Lugia's slumber was disturbed by a lightning storm that struck the Brass Tower with a powerful lightning bolt, engulfing it in flames for three days. Lugia attempted to use the winds to stop the flame, but this action put Ecruteak City in grave danger. Because of this, Lugia instead chose to call upon rain to put out the fire.

However, it was too late to save the Brass Tower, as it burned to the ground due to the damage. During this tragic event, three nameless Pokémon were tragically killed in the fire, much to the despair of the people. Fortunately, Ho-Oh descended from the sky and used its power to revive them. The Pokémon were reborn as {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}}. While this filled the people with awe, it also led to them fearing Ho-Oh due to its power to manipulate life. Ho-Oh and the Legendary beasts fled due to the violence of the people who feared Ho-Oh's power.

In despair of the destruction of the Brass Tower, Lugia flew away and chose to live in the ocean's depths. Lugia eventually settled at the [[Whirl Islands]]. According to the island's legend, at some point, the two countries fought each other over the island. In great anger, Lugia unleashed several lightning bolts to split the island into four separate islands. Lugia then dove into the deep end of the waterfall basin, disappearing in the process.

The Tower duo was never seen again after the fire and violence of the humans. The Brass Tower was never repaired, left as a reminder of what can be lost and regained, becoming what is now known as the Burned Tower. Two legends reveal when Lugia and Ho-Oh will return to Ecruteak City. When a Trainer who can touch the {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|souls}} of Pokémon appears, Ho-Oh will return from the heavens to the Bell Tower. Lugia is said to return only when a human with a pure {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|heart}} appears before Lugia and that the invisible trust between people and Pokémon returns.

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, there is a similar legend to the two towers. In [[EP181|''A Ghost of a Chance'']], [[Morty]] claimed that the two towers are the original [[Tin Tower]], which burned down, and a rebuilt one. According to that legend, invaders came and tried to steal Ho-Oh. This invasion failed as Ho-Oh resisted and flew away. In retaliation, the invaders burned down the Tin Tower. However, in [[EP227|''For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!'']], the story follows the game version, though retains the war aspect.

Lugia had stayed dormant at [[Cerise Island]], until the [[Elite Four|Kanto Elite Four]] summoned it with Badge Amplifier in an attempt to exterminate humans. It appeared before them in the form of a spirit in ''[[PS089|The Might of... Metapod?!]]''. After Lance's defeat it flew to the [[Johto|west]]. The Diving Pokémon had returned to the [[Whirl Islands]], before causing havoc around the [[S.S. Aqua]] in ''[[PS145|Sandslash Surprise]]'', where it was properly identified as Lugia. Soon enough the Johto Dex Holders meet each other, where they make a plan to capture it in ''[[PS146|Lively Lugia (Part 1)]]'',''[[PS147|II]]'' and ''[[PS148|III]]''. They managed to weaken it but as it was about to be caught in {{adv|Crystal}}'s Poké Ball, the Masked Man had quickly thrown his own Poké Ball capturing it.

The Masked Man then attacked the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] using [[Team Rocket]] to prompt Ho-Oh to return to [[Ecruteak City]], ultimately capturing the Rainbow Pokémon. Ho-Oh was later seen at [[Indigo Plateau]] under the Masked Man's control, alongside {{p|Lugia}}, wreaking havoc and destruction. They were then lent to [[Karen]] and [[Will]] to fight Green at [[Ilex Forest]]. They nearly defeated her [[legendary birds]], but all the trainers' Pokémon from both Johto and Kanto were sent there with the use of the [[Pokémon Storage System]], with the combined strength of all the Pokémon the two were freed from the Masked Man's control and flew off to parts unknown.

===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
In ''[[PS408|High-tailing It from Haunter]]'', Ho-Oh and Lugia were briefly seen when the [[Advanced level Grunt]] was talking to {{adv|Diamond}} about the past accomplishments of the [[Pokédex holder]]s.

===Pokémon Pocket Monsters===
Ho-Oh appeared in ''[[PM090|The Legendary Ho-oh!!]]'' and [[PMHGSS02]]. While Lugia appeared in ''[[PM071|Clefairy Rangers to the Rescue!!]]'' and ''[[PM094|Take me to the Dragon Palace!]]''.

===Pokémon: Yeah! I Got Pokémon!===
Ho-Oh appeared in [[GDZ65]]. [[Shu]] captured Lugia once, but released it in order to let it continue protecting the ocean.

----
{{types}}
The '''Ground type''' (Japanese: '''じめんタイプ''' ''Ground type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Ground-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Electric}}-, {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Ground-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Grass}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type|Water}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''
===Generation I===

===Additional effects===
Ground-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Thunder Wave}}, unless they are holding the [[Ring Target]], introduced in [[Generation V]].

Ground-type Pokémon are also immune to damage from the {{weather|sandstorm}} weather condition, introduced in [[Generation II]]. During a sandstorm, Ground-type moves used by a Pokémon with {{a|Sand Force}} have their power increased by 30%.

From [[Generation II]] onwards, Ground-type moves cannot hit Pokémon under the effects of the moves {{m|Magnet Rise}} or {{m|Telekinesis}}, the [[Air Balloon]], or the {{Abilities}} {{a|Levitate}} or {{a|Earth Eater}}, though all Pokémon except those with {{a|Earth Eater}} lose their immunity to Ground-type moves when they are [[grounded]] (such as by holding an [[Iron Ball]] or being under the effects of the moves {{m|Ingrain}} ([[Generation IV]] onward), {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Smack Down}}, or {{m|Thousand Arrows}}). Ground-type moves will also affect {{t|Flying}} type Pokémon when they lose their ungrounded status.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ground-type Pokémon|pages}} Ground-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ground-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Ground-type in at least one of their [[form]]s, including [[Galarian form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Steel}} as the 6th rarest type after {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Electric}} and before {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Fighting}}.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 31 Ground-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.32% of all moves (excluding those that are Ground-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Flying}} and {{t|Dragon}} as the second rarest type among moves, with {{t|Rock}} as the rarest.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Ground-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

{{DL||Changed types|Some moves}} have had their types changed.

{{movelist/battle-head|Ground}}
{{movelist/battle|1|Bone Club|Physical|Tough|65|85|20|anyadjacent|The user clubs the target with a bone. This may also make the target flinch.}}
{{movelist/battle|2|Bone Rush|Physical|Tough|25|90|10|anyadjacent|The user attacks by striking the target with a hard bone. This move hits two to five times in a row.}}

==In the TCG==
{{main|Fighting (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Ground-type Pokémon are generally listed as {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.

Ground-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Grass}} and {{TCG|Water}} with a resistance to the {{TCG|Lightning}}-type. Fighting-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Colorless}}, {{TCG|Darkness}} and {{TCG|Lightning}} Pokémon, whilst some {{TCG|Colorless}} and {{TCG|Psychic}} Pokémon can resist the Fighting type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Ground-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 14, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest, with two.
* Generations I, VI, and {{gen|VIII}} introduced the most Ground-type moves of any Generation, with five each, while [[Generation IX]] introduced the fewest, with zero.
* Generation VI and IX are the only Generations to not introduce a pure Ground-type Pokémon.
* The Ground type has the highest ratio of super effective offensive matchups over resistances; with five weaknesses opposed to two resistances and one immunity.
* The Ground type is tied with {{t|Fighting}} for the most super effective matchups.
* In the anime, Ground-type Pokémon's immunity to {{type|Electric}} attacks is treated inconsistently, sometimes upheld and sometimes ignored. The anime (in particular ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'') also implies that Ground's immunity to Electric 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 was not enough to completely incapacitate it, as well as environmental factors (such as water being sprayed on it).
* In the anime on multiple occasions, like in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', ''[[EP193|Sick Daze]]'' and ''[[EP204|Right On, Rhydon!]]'', Ground and {{t|Rock}}-type Pokémon are said to have strong aversion to water and generally being wet. {{p|Rhydon}} is often presented as an exception to this rule due to its ability to use the move {{m|Surf}}.
* Each type that resists {{t|Flying}} is weak to Ground, and vice versa.
* More Pokémon are immune to Ground-type moves than any other type, as Flying-type Pokémon and Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Levitate}} and {{a|Earth Eater}} are immune to Ground.
* Ground is the only type in the [[Generation II]] games and their remakes that a notable Trainer does not [[Type expert|specialize in]].
* Out of all the types, Ground has the most [[moves]] ineligible for [[Sky Battle]]s, with 12.
* Ground and Flying are tied with having the fewest notable type specialists, with only five each.
* The Ground type has been paired up with every other type except for {{t|Fairy}}.

----
{{types}}
The '''Steel type''' (Japanese: '''はがねタイプ''' ''Steel type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. It was introduced in [[Generation II]], along with the {{t|Dark}} type. As well as introducing new {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and [[move]]s with the Steel type, 2 Pokémon were changed to have the Steel type. Steel-type moves are super effective against {{t|Fairy}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type|Rock}} Pokémon, while Steel-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Fighting}}-, {{t|Fire}}-, and {{type|Ground}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

===Additional effects===
Steel-type Pokémon are immune to damage from the {{weather|sandstorm}} weather condition.

In [[Generation II]], Steel-type Pokémon cannot be {{status|poisoned}} by Poison-type moves, hence they can be poisoned only by {{m|Twineedle}}. Starting from [[Generation III]], Steel-type Pokémon cannot get poisoned at all, except by the [[Ability]] {{a|Corrosion}}, introduced in [[Generation VII]].

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Steel-type Pokémon|pages}} Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Steel-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Steel-type (counting those that are Steel-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[regional form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Ground}} as the 6th rarest [[type]] among Pokémon after {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Electric}} and before {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Fighting}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Metal (TCG)}}
Introduced in the {{TCG|Neo Genesis}} set, Metal-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Fire}} and {{TCG|Fighting}} with resistances to {{TCG|Grass}} and {{TCG|Psychic}}. Metal-type Pokémon can be strong against {{TCG|Water}} and {{TCG|Fairy}}, whilst some {{TCG|Water}} and {{TCG|Lightning}} Pokémon can resist this type.

==Statistical averages==
===Overall===
{{BaseStatNoCat
|type=steel
|HP=71.46
|Attack=96.57
|Defense=108.36
|SpAtk=75.83
|SpDef=82.84

|Total=549.08
}}


==Trivia==
* The Steel type has the most resistances of any type.
* Steel-type Pokémon, on average, have the highest physical {{stat|Defense}} among all Pokémon and among fully evolved Pokémon. 
* [[Generation VII]] introduced the most Steel-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with 13, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Steel-type Pokémon since the type was created, with four.
*[[Generation VIII]] introduced the most Steel-type [[move]]s of any generation, with eight, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Steel-type moves since the [[type]] was created, with {{m|King's Shield|one}}.
* In [[Generation II]], the Steel type saw one type change in a Pokémon family ({{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}}), but no change in moves. The opposite is true for the {{t|Dark}} type, which saw one type change in a move ({{m|Bite}}), but no change in a Pokémon.
* Before Generation VI, Steel was the only type that had a non-neutral type match-up with all the seventeen existing types, considering both the offense and defense of both types. In Generation VI, it was changed so that Steel no longer resisted Dark- or {{type|Ghost}} moves.
* Each of the three [[first partner Pokémon]] types inflict a different amount of damage when attacking a pure Steel-type Pokémon ({{t|Grass}} does ½× damage, {{t|Water}} does 1× damage, and {{t|Fire}} does 2× damage).
** This trait is also shared by the {{t|Bug}} type.
* In Generation II, there is a [[glitch type]] that is a copy of the Steel type, named “{{DL|List of glitch types (Generation II)|l) m) ZM}}”. The [[????? (Gold/Silver FF)|?????]]{{sup/2|GS}} (hex form FF) is the only Pokémon with this type. This type has no moves.
* The Steel type is tied with the {{t|Dark}} type for most Pokémon that gain it upon evolving, with a total of thirteen each.
* The Steel type is the only type that resists {{type|Dragon}} moves.
* Despite being introduced in [[Generation II]], there were no pure Steel-type Pokémon until [[Generation III]], with {{p|Mawile}} (at the time) and {{p|Registeel}}.
* Every generation since the Steel type debuted has introduced at least one Steel-type [[Type expert|specialist]].
* The Steel type is the last type to receive a {{tc|Team GO Rocket Grunt}} type specialist in [[Pokémon GO]].
* The Steel type is tied with the {{t|Poison}} type for being the most common type among [[Ultra Beasts]], with three Ultra Beasts being Steel- or Poison-type each.
** They are also the only types to share an immunity to a [[status condition]], both being immune to [[Poison (status condition)|poisoning]].
* The Steel type has been paired up with every other type except for {{t|Normal}} (not including [[Pokéstar Studios]] opponents).

{{types}}
The '''Fairy type''' (Japanese: '''フェアリータイプ''' ''Fairy type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. It was introduced in [[Generation VI]]. As well as introducing new {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and [[move]]s with the Fairy type, 22 Pokémon and 3 [[move]]s were changed to have the Fairy type. Fairy-type moves are super-effective against {{t|Dark}}-, {{t|Dragon}}-, and {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon, while Fairy-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Poison}}- and {{type|Steel}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fairy-type Pokémon|pages}} Fairy-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fairy-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Fairy-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Mega Evolution]]s and [[regional form]]s), making it the second rarest type after {{t|Ice}} and before {{t|Ghost}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Fairy (TCG)}}
Fairy has its own energy type, which was introduced in the {{TCG|Kalos Starter Set}} set. Fairy-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Metal}} with a resistance to {{TCG|Darkness}}. Fairy-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Dragon}}-type cards printed during the XY, XY BREAK and Sun & Moon series, while no Pokémon resists this type.

Starting with {{TCG|Sword & Shield}}, the Fairy type was discontinued in the TCG, and new cards of Pokémon that are Fairy-type are {{TCG|Psychic}}-types.

==Trivia==
* The Fairy type has been paired up with every other type except for {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Ground}}, and is the only type to not have been paired with either of these two types.
* Fairy-type Pokémon have the highest average {{stat|Special Defense}} of all types. 
* Fairy-type Pokémon have the lowest average {{stat|Attack}} of all types. 
* [[Generation VI]] introduced the most Fairy-type Pokémon of any generation, with 37 (including Pokémon changed to Fairy-type and those that gain the type upon Mega Evolving). [[Generation IX]] introduced the fewest Fairy-type Pokémon since the type was created, with 9.
** If Fairy-type Pokémon were retroactively considered to be from the generation they were introduced in, Generation VI would still have introduced the most, with 15. Generations [[IV]] and [[V]] would have introduced the fewest, with two each.
* Generation VI introduced the most Fairy-type moves of any generation, with 14. [[Generation IX]] introduced the fewest Fairy-type moves since the type was created, with only two.
* More Pokémon were changed to Fairy than either of the other types added since [[Generation I]] (the other two being {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Steel}} in [[Generation II]]), with 22. Also, more moves were changed to Fairy, with three. All three of them were [[status move]]s introduced in [[Generation II]] and were previously {{type|Normal}}.
** It is also the only one out of the three types to completely replace the types of Pokémon from previous generations rather than simply adding an additional type, changing several previously pure Normal-type Pokémon, such as {{p|Snubbull}}, to pure Fairy.
* The Fairy type is the only type without any [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|Pokémon with gender differences]].
** In addition, the Fairy type has the most gender-exclusive species of Pokémon, with many of them being female-only species.
* Every type that resists Fairy also resists {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Bug}} and is weak to {{t|Ground}}.
* The types that resist Fairy are the three types with the most resistances.
* The Fairy type is one of the two types that {{m|Hidden Power}} cannot be outside of [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], the other being the {{type|Normal}}.
* The Fairy type has the fewest [[physical move]]s of all types, with three (one of which cannot be known by the player's Pokémon).
* The Fairy type is the only type to have a [[gem]] that has [[List of unobtainable items|not been legitimately obtainable]], namely the [[Fairy Gem]].
* Prior to [[The Teal Mask]] DLC for {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, Fairy-type moves have the fewest [[held item]]s that boost their power, with the [[Pixie Plate]] being the only one to have ever been legitimately obtainable. The Teal Mask introduced the [[Fairy Feather]], which functions as a non-consumable [[type-enhancing item|type-enhancing]] [[held item]] in the same vein as [[Charcoal]] or [[Metal Coat]].
* The Fairy type is one of the only two types — the other being {{t|Poison}} — to not have any moves that cause [[flinch]]ing without the [[King's Rock]] or [[Razor Fang]].
* Fairy is the only type to not have any Pokémon caught by {{Ash}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Instead, his previously caught [[Mimey|Mr. Mime]] has been retroactively made part Fairy type, as revealed in the [[Poké Problem]] extra scene of [[SM024]].
* Every [[generation]] since the Fairy type debuted has introduced at least one Fairy-type [[type expert|specialist]].
* {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Snubbull}}, and {{p|Granbull}} [[List of categories by abundance|share]] the "Fairy Pokémon" {{pkmn|category}}, which predates the introduction of the {{egg|Fairy}} [[Egg Group]] and the Fairy type.
** In English, those four Pokémon have the same name for their type (from [[Generation VI]] onwards), Egg Group, and category.
** In Japanese, those four Pokémon have the same name for their category (ようせいポケモン ''Yōsei Pokémon'') and Egg Group (ようせいグループ ''Yōsei Group''), but their type has a different name (フェアリータイプ ''Fairy type'').

Ghost (type)

Flashlight237:

{{Types}}
The '''Ghost type''' (Japanese: '''ゴーストタイプ''' ''Ghost type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Ghost-type [[move]]s are super effective against Ghost- and {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Ghost-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Dark}}- and Ghost-type moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

|nve={{TypeIcon|Poison}}{{TypeIcon|Bug}}
|immune={{TypeIcon|Normal}}{{TypeIcon|Fighting}}
}}
{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
If the user has the [[Ability]] {{a|Scrappy}} or {{a|Mind's Eye}}, or the target is under the effect of the [[move]]s {{m|Foresight}} or {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, {{t|Normal}}- and {{type|Fighting}} moves will deal ×1 damage to Ghost-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

In [[Generation I]] only, Ghost-type Pokémon cannot be [[Paralysis|paralyzed]] by {{m|Lick}}, and are affected by {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Counter}}, {{m|Seismic Toss}}, {{m|SonicBoom}}, and {{m|Super Fang}}, despite these moves being Normal- and Fighting-type, which the Ghost type is normally immune to.

The move {{m|Curse}}, introduced in [[Generation II]], functions differently when used by a Ghost-type Pokémon.

In [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} and {{gen|III}} only, Ghost-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Glare}}.

From [[Generation VI]] onwards, Ghost-type Pokémon are immune to effects that prevent [[recall]] or [[escape]] (such as {{m|Mean Look}} and {{a|Shadow Tag}}), and they are also guaranteed to flee from any wild battle regardless of {{stat|Speed}}.

The move {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}, introduced in Generation VI, adds the Ghost type to the target's [[type]]s.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ghost-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ghost-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Ghost-type (counting those that are Ghost-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[regional form]]s), making it the third rarest type among Pokémon after {{t|Fairy}} and before {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Electric}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 34 Ghost-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.64% of all moves (excluding those that are Ghost-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Bug}} as the 4th rarest [[type]] among moves after {{t|Ice}} and before {{t|Poison}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Ghost-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with the Ghost type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become a Ghost-type Pokémon if it uses a Ghost-type move. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Ghost-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Ghost-type move, is sent out against a Ghost-type opponent, is holding a [[Ghost Memory]], or is holding a [[Spooky Plate]] or [[Ghostium Z]].

Since Generation VI, Ghost-type Pokémon are also immune to {{a|Magnet Pull}}, {{a|Arena Trap}}, and {{a|Shadow Tag}}.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Psychic (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG compared to the game series, Ghost-type Pokémon fall under the {{type|Psychic}}.

Psychic-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Darkness}} and other Psychic Pokémon, with resistances to {{TCG|Colorless}} and {{TCG|Fighting}}. Psychic-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Grass}} (until {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}}), {{TCG|Fighting}} and {{TCG|Psychic}} Pokémon, whilst {{TCG|Colorless}}, {{TCG|Darkness}}, and {{TCG|Metal}} Pokémon can resist this type.

==Trivia==
[[File:Totem Trevenant present.png|thumb|250px|A deceased {{pkmn2|Totem}} {{p|Trevenant}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
* [[Generation VIII|Generations VIII]] and [[IX]] introduced the most Ghost-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with thirteen. [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest Ghost-type Pokémon, with only one, {{p|Misdreavus}}.
** Despite being introduced in [[Generation I]], there were no pure Ghost-type Pokémon until Generation II introduced Misdreavus.
* [[Generation VII]] introduced the most Ghost-type [[move]]s of any generation, with eight. [[Generation V]] introduced the fewest Ghost-type moves, with only one, {{m|Hex}}.
* In [[Generation I]], Ghost-type moves have no effect on {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, though an abundance of evidence suggests that this may have been an error. Multiple sources mention that Ghost-type moves are super-effective on Psychic-type Pokémon: official strategy guides published by [[Nintendo]], two episodes of the {{pkmn|anime}} (''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]'' and ''[[EP024|Haunter versus Kadabra]]''), and even the games themselves, where a [[Pokémon Trainer]] in the [[Saffron Gym]] mentions that Psychic-type Pokémon "only fear {{t|Bug}}s and Ghosts" (though the reference to Ghost-type Pokémon was removed in {{game|Yellow}}). This was corrected in Generation II to make Ghost-type moves actually be super effective against Psychic-type Pokémon.
* The Ghost type is the only [[type]] who is immune to two types: {{t|Normal}} and {{t|Fighting}}.
** It is also the only type to have ever been ineffective against two types: Normal and Psychic in Generation I.
** Ghost and Normal are the only two types to be ineffective against each other.
* As of [[Generation VI]], Ghost is tied with {{t|Dragon}} for being the least resisted type.
* While the Ghost-type has an immunity to {{type|Normal}} moves, several damaging moves that display as Normal-type can affect them, including {{m|Hidden Power}} (whose actual type varies) and {{m|Struggle}} (which inflicts [[Type#Typeless|typeless]] damage from Generation II onward).
* In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon}} games, Ghost-type Pokémon can walk through "walls" (some dungeons have cliffs, holes, or other equivalents), although doing so rapidly depletes their [[Belly]] meter. This is a reference to how [[Ghosts in the Pokémon world|ghosts]] are often depicted as being able to phase through objects.
** Despite not being Ghost-type, {{p|Darkrai}} is also able to walk through walls.
* From [[Generation VI]] to [[Generation VIII]], it was not possible for any Pokémon to possess a double resistance to Ghost. In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, it is now possible for a Pokémon to have a double resistance to Ghost-type moves if it has {{a|Purifying Salt}} and is {{type|Dark}}.
**The only Pokémon to have ever possessed a double resistance to the Ghost-type naturally were {{p|Pawniard}} and {{p|Bisharp}}, both of which are dual-type {{t|Dark}}/{{t|Steel}}.
* [[Kalos]] is the only region without a notable Ghost-type [[Type expert|specialist]].
* In [[Pokémon Conquest]], Ghost-type Pokémon which are not part-{{type|Flying}} or have {{a|Levitate}} are shown with an animation of physically passing through enemies, referencing the common belief that real-life ghosts can pass through solid objects. They cannot, however, pass through any other obstacle on the field in-game.
* Ghost- and Dark-type moves are super effective against the same types. As of Generation VI, the only difference between them is that Dark-type moves are not very effective on {{t|Fighting}}- or {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon while Ghost-type moves do not affect Normal-type Pokémon.
* As shown in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', some Ghost-type Pokémon, despite their name, can still [[Death in the Pokémon world|die]]. This was first mentioned in ''[[SM073|Why Not Give Me a Z-Ring Sometime?]]'', where [[Acerola]] revealed that her {{shiny}} {{p|Mimikyu}}, Mimikins, is in fact the ghost of a deceased Mimikyu. Later, in ''[[SM125|A Timeless Encounter!]]'', it is revealed that {{an|Professor Kukui}} had once befriended a {{pkmn2|Totem}} {{p|Trevenant}} that he [[nickname]]d Elder. It is later revealed that Elder has since died, its body now a regular tree, though the circumstances of its death weren't revealed. {{mov|Giratina}} is another Ghost-type whose life has been in danger, in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. However, despite this, it still appears that many Ghost-type Pokémon, particularly ones who are more similar to traditional ghosts, are indeed immune to the ravages of time and can live on indefinitely; for instance, a {{p|Yamask}} shown in ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene City Museum!]]'' was told to be millennia old.
* All Ghost-type moves are eligible to be used in [[Sky Battle]]s.
* The Ghost type was the last type to have at least one Pokémon officially owned by {{Ash}} in the anime, following his capture of a {{AP|Gengar}} in ''[[JN016|A Chilling Curse!]]''.
* {{t|Rock}} is the only type that has yet to be paired with Ghost.
* Ghost and {{t|Dragon}} share some characteristics. They both:
** originally had three Pokémon in Generation I, then gained only one more in Generation II.
** are the only types that are weak to themselves.
** have one type immune to them and one type resistant to them.
* Until [[The Isle of Armor]] and the introduction of {{m|Poltergeist}}, every Ghost-type move had 100% accuracy or could not miss.
* In Japanese, the Ghost type shares its name with {{p|Haunter}}, whose Japanese name is ゴースト ''Ghost''.

----
{{types}}
The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. It was introduced in [[Generation II]], along with the {{t|Steel}} type. As well as introducing new {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and [[move]]s with the Dark type, one move was changed to be the Dark type. Dark-type moves are super effective against {{t|Ghost}}- and {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, while Dark-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Fairy}}-, and {{type|Fighting}} moves.

==Battle properties==

===Additional effects===
If the target is under the effect of the [[move]] {{m|Miracle Eye}}, {{type|Psychic}} moves will deal ×1 damage to Dark-type Pokémon.

As of [[Generation VII]], Dark-type Pokémon are immune to opposing Pokémon's moves that gain [[priority]] due to the [[Ability]] {{a|Prankster}}; this includes moves called by {{cat|moves that call other moves|other moves}} (such as {{m|Assist}} and {{m|Nature Power}}), but not moves indirectly caused by {{m|Instruct}} or {{m|After You}}.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dark-type Pokémon|pages}} Dark-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dark-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Dark-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Mega Evolution]]s and [[regional form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Fighting}} as the 9th rarest type after {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Steel}} and before {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Poison}}. After the introduction of {{p|Lokix}}, all other types have been paired up with Dark at least once, making it the fourth type to have this trait, after {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Water}}, and {{t|Psychic}}.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 53 Dark-type [[move]]s, which makes up 5.67% of all moves (excluding those that are Dark-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Water}} as the 5th most common type among moves, after {{t|Fighting}} and before {{t|Electric}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Dark-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

===Interacting with the Dark type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become a Dark-type Pokémon if it uses a Dark-type move. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Dark-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Dark-type move, is sent out against a Dark-type opponent, is holding a [[Dark Memory]], or is holding a [[Dread Plate]] or [[Darkinium Z]].

Since Generation VII, Dark-type Pokémon are also immune to opposing Pokémon's moves that gain priority due to {{a|Prankster}}.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Darkness (TCG)}}
The Darkness type was first introduced in the {{TCG|Neo Genesis}} set. Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Darkness generally adopts all {{type|Poison}} Pokémon under its typing (from {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} onward).

Darkness-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Fighting}} and {{TCG|Grass}}, with resistances to {{TCG|Psychic}}. Darkness-type Pokémon are generally strong against {{TCG|Psychic}}, whilst {{TCG|Fairy}} Pokémon can resist this type.

== Trivia ==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon of any [[generation]], with 16, while [[Generation II]] and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest, with six.
** Should [[regional form]]s not be counted, [[Generation VII]] introduced the fewest, with two.
* [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation VIII]] introduced the most Dark-type moves of any generation, with 11 each, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest (excluding Generation I) Dark-type moves, with three.
* In [[Generation II]], the Dark type saw one type change in a move ({{m|Bite}}), but no change in a Pokémon. The opposite is true for the {{t|Steel}} type, which saw one type change in a Pokémon family ({{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}}), but no change in a move.
** This makes the Dark type the only added type to not have a previously introduced Pokémon have its type changed.
* The Dark type was the only type in Generation II to not have a {{DL|Badge|type boost}} from a Badge.
* In Generation II, Dark-type Pokémon could only be found at [[Time|night]]. In subsequent generations, however, Pokémon of this type could be found at any time of day.
* Despite Dark-type moves being [[special move|special]] before Generation IV, every damaging Dark-type move originating from before Generation IV was made into a [[physical move]].
** This is the only type to have had every damaging move change category in Generation IV.
* The Dark and {{t|Ghost}} types share their super effectiveness, with both types being only strong against {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Psychic}} types.
* There is another way the Dark type can be seen as a counterpart to the Ghost type. The average Attack stat of Dark-types overall, as well as only fully evolved Dark-types, is higher than the respective average Special Attack stat, despite the fact that all Dark-type moves were special prior to Generation IV. Conversely, the average Special Attack stat of both Ghost-types overall and only fully evolved Ghost-types is higher than the respective average Attack stat, but all Ghost-type moves were physical prior to Generation IV.
* The Dark type is tied with the {{t|Steel}} type for most Pokémon that gain it upon upon evolving, with a total of thirteen each.
* More [[regional form]]s belong to the Dark type than any other type, with eleven.
* Prior to Generation VI, Dark/Ghost Pokémon normally had no weaknesses (excluding {{t|Fighting}} under immunity-negating conditions such as {{m|Foresight}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. Introduced in Generation VI, the {{t|Fairy}} type is super effective against Dark and not resisted by Ghost.
* All moves that fail unless used by a certain species or form of Pokémon ({{m|Hyperspace Fury}}, {{m|Dark Void}}, and {{m|Aura Wheel}}) are Dark type (although Aura Wheel is Electric type when used by {{p|Morpeko}} in Full Belly mode).
* All Dark-type moves are eligible to be used in [[Sky Battle]]s.
* The Dark type was the last type to receive a [[Gym Leader]], only getting simultaneously two in [[Generation VIII]].
** This makes Dark the only type to not receive Gym Leader within a generation of the type's introduction.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 34 Bug-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.64% of all moves (excluding those that are Bug-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Fairy}} as the 4th rarest type among moves, after {{t|Ice}} and before {{t|Poison}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Bug-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

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

Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Bug-type Pokémon are generally listed as {{TCG|Grass}}-type Pokémon.

Grass-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Fire}}-type Pokémon and have no resistance. They are strong against some {{TCG|Fighting}} and {{TCG|Darkness}} Pokémon, and until {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} were strong against some {{TCG|Water}} types as well, whilst {{TCG|Metal}} Pokémon resisted it until the {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} expansion set before this resistance was brought back in Sword & Shield.

==Trivia==
* On average, Bug-type Pokémon have the lowest base {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and base stat total of all types. 
* Bug is tied with {{t|Grass}} as the most resisted type, with seven types resisting each of them.
* This is the only [[type]]:
** That hasn't been assigned to a [[Legendary Pokémon]].
** Without a Pokémon that has a [[regional form]] or is one.
** Without a Pokémon in the {{egg|Amorphous}} or {{egg3|Field}}.
* The Bug type has been paired with every other type except for {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Normal}}.
** This makes the Bug type the only type to not have been paired up with {{t|Dragon}}.
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Bug-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 18, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Bug-type Pokémon, with three.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Bug-type moves of any Generation, with seven, and [[Generation IX]] introduced the fewest Bug-type moves, with two.
* The {{t|Flying}} type is one of the two types most commonly paired with the Bug type, with the other type being {{t|Poison}}. However, there are a number of Bug types that are not Flying-types nor have the Ability {{a|Levitate}} despite being able to fly, such as {{p|Beedrill}} and {{p|Venomoth}}.
** Despite this, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, {{p|Volcarona}}, {{p|Genesect}}, and {{p|Vikavolt}}, are not Flying-type Pokémon.
*** Out of these three Pokémon, Vikavolt is the only one that could not learn Fly in its introductory generation; Vikavolt was made able to learn Fly at [[level]] 50 and from [[TM06]] in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]].
* Until {{v2|Platinum}}, several Bug-type Pokémon ({{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}) were unable to learn any Bug-type moves naturally. Each of them can now learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level up.
** {{p|Pinsir}} and the {{p|Ledyba}} evolutionary line were also unable to learn any Bug-type moves naturally until Generation IV, in which the former gained access to {{m|X-Scissor}} and the latter to {{m|Silver Wind}} and {{m|Bug Buzz}} via level up.
* In [[Generation I]], the Bug type is {{DL|Type|Type effectiveness|super effective}} against {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, while the Poison type is super effective against Bug-type Pokémon. As such, this was the only case when two different types were ever super-effective against each other.
** Additionally, since Generation I, the Bug and {{t|Fighting}} types are the only two separate types that resist each other.
* The Bug type was the most common 4× weakness in Generation I, with 11 Pokémon doubly weak to it, mainly due to Poison type having a weakness to it at the time.
* Each of the three [[first partner Pokémon]] types have a different effectiveness when attacking a pure Bug-type Pokémon (Grass does ½× damage, Water does 1× damage, and Fire does 2× damage).
** This trait is also shared with pure {{t|Steel}}-type Pokémon.
* No Pokémon gains the Bug type upon evolution that did not already have it. It shares this distinction with the {{t|Normal}} type.
** Additionally, no Pokémon gains the Bug type upon changing forms with the exceptions of {{p|Arceus}} and {{p|Silvally}}, which can change into any type.
* Of all Pokémon that [[List of Pokémon that evolve at or above a certain level|evolve at or above a certain level]], 11 of the earliest-evolving Pokémon are of the Bug type.
* Despite having no [[TM]]s that are of the Bug-type in [[Generation III]], {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}'s [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen beta#Sprites|internal data]] contains a sprite for Bug-type TMs.
* All Bug-type moves are eligible to be used in [[Sky Battle]]s.

{{types}}
The '''Dragon type''' (Japanese: '''ドラゴンタイプ''' ''Dragon type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Dragon-type [[move]]s are super effective against Dragon-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Dragon-type Pokémon are weak to Dragon-, {{t|Fairy}}-, and {{type|Ice}} moves.

===Additional effects===
When {{m|Misty Terrain}} is in effect, the power of Dragon-type moves is decreased by 50% if the target is [[grounded]].

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dragon-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dragon-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Dragon-type (counting those that are Dragon-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Mega Evolution]]s and [[regional form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Electric}} as the fourth rarest [[type]] among Pokémon after {{t|Ghost}} and before {{t|Steel}}.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 31 Dragon-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.32% of all moves (excluding those that are Dragon-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Flying}} as the second rarest type among moves, with {{t|Rock}} as the rarest.

Prior to {{DL|Generation IV|Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV}}, all damaging Dragon-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the move.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Dragon (TCG)}}
Introduced in the {{TCG|Dragon Vault}} set, previously many Pokémon in this set were listed as {{TCG|Colorless}}-types. Dragon-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to Dragon (pre-{{TCG|XY}}, {{TCG|Vivid Voltage}} onward) or {{TCG|Fairy}} (from XY to {{TCG|Cosmic Eclipse}}) with no resistances. Dragon-type Pokémon can be strong against other Dragon-types, and there are no types that resist them.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation IX]] introduced the most Dragon-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with fourteen, while [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest Dragon-type Pokémon, with only one, {{p|Kingdra}}.
* [[Generation VIII]] introduced the most Dragon-type moves of any generation, with nine, while [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest, with none.
** The Dragon type is the only [[type]] for which a move was not introduced in [[Generation VI]]. This is also the first instance of any generation not introducing a move for a type after that type's introduction.
* As of [[Generation VII]], Dragon-type Pokémon have the highest average {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and base stat total of all [[type]]s.
* The Dragon type is super effective against the least amount of types after {{t|Normal}}, only being super effective against itself. Because of this, no Pokémon can have a double weakness to Dragon-type moves except for those who are {{t|Fairy}}- and {{type|Steel}} in [[Inverse Battle]]s.
* In [[Generation VI]] onwards, the Dragon type is tied with the {{t|Ghost}} type for being the least resisted type, with both types being resisted by only one other type.
** However, as of [[Generation IX]], the Dragon type is the only type no Pokémon can have a double resistance to, since Pokémon who are {{type|Dark}} and have the [[Ability]] {{a|Purifying Salt}} can gain a double resistance to Ghost-type moves.
* The Dragon type and the idea of "dragons" aren't the same in the [[Pokémon world]], as some Pokémon which are not Dragon-type sometimes are referred to as dragons. This idea is further supported by [[Lance]]'s [[Pokémon Masters EX]] dialogue, stating that not all dragons are Dragon-type Pokémon.<ref>'''{{mas|Lance}} ({{pkmn|Masters EX}})''': "This outfit shows off Gyarados's power as a dragon! What's that, you say? Gyarados isn't a Dragon-type Pokémon? Haha, not all dragons are Dragon-type Pokémon!"</ref> Some non-Dragon-type Pokémon which have been referred to as dragons include:
** {{p|Charizard}}, in promotional materials and literature for the {{TCG|Dragon Majesty}} TCG expansion and in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. series|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series.
** {{p|Horsea}} and {{p|Seadra}}, by their {{pkmn|category}}. However, Seadra's evolution, {{p|Kingdra}}, is a Dragon-type.
** {{p|Aerodactyl}}, by a man in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].
** {{p|Gyarados}}, by the [[List of Pokémon by Hisui Pokédex number|Hisui Pokédex]]; and by {{mas|Lance}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]].
** {{p|Lugia}}, by a man in [[Ecruteak City]].
** {{p|Iron Jugulis}} (implicitly, being a robotic version of {{p|Hydreigon}}).
** There is also a {{egg3|Dragon}}, which contains other draconic Pokémon that are not Dragon-type.
* This is the most common type for [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]], with only two of them, {{p|Metagross}} and {{p|Tyranitar}} (although the latter has dragon-like characteristics and can learn Dragon-type moves), not being part Dragon-type.
* In [[Generation I]], there was no way to deal super effective Dragon-type damage, since the only Dragon-type move available at the time, {{m|Dragon Rage}}, always deals 40 HP of damage. There was also no way to get {{STAB}} from a Dragon-type move in Generation I for the same reason.
* In Generation I, no type resisted or was immune to the Dragon type, making it the only type to have ever had this distinction. However, there were no Dragon-type moves that utilized the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta#Super Effective Dragon type|standard damage formula]] in Generation I, making this a moot point.
* [[Sinnoh]] is the only region without a notable Dragon-type [[Type expert|specialist]].
* In [[Generation III]], all Dragon-type moves were {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves.
* This is the most common type among [[version mascot]]s, with nine Dragon-type Pokémon having served as mascots for ten games of the [[core series]].
* Dragon-type moves have the most [[held item]]s that boost their power: the [[Draco Plate]], [[Dragon Fang]], [[Dragon Gem]], all three [[Pokémon of Myth orbs]], and the [[Soul Dew]] (as of Generation VII).
* The Dragon type resists all three of the traditional primary types of core series [[first partner Pokémon]]: {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, and {{t|Water}}. In addition, it resists {{t|Electric}}, which was the type of the [[List of the player's first Pokémon|player's first Pokémon]] ({{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}}) in {{game|Yellow}}.
* More Pokémon gain the Dragon type through [[Mega Evolution]] than any other type, with three.
* All Dragon-type moves are eligible to be used in [[Sky Battle]]s.
* Dragon and {{t|Ghost}} share some characteristics. They both:
** originally had three Pokémon in Generation I, then gained only one more in Generation II.
** are the only types that are weak to themselves.
** have one type immune to them and one type resistant to them.
* This is the only type to have all of its Pokémon introduced prior to [[Generation IX]] obtainable in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], excluding [[Mega Evolution]]s.

===Additional effects===
Rock-type Pokémon are immune to damage from the {{weather|sandstorm}} weather condition, introduced in [[Generation II]].

Starting in [[Generation IV]], Rock-type Pokémon have their {{stat|Special Defense}} boosted by 50% during a sandstorm.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Rock-type Pokémon|pages}} Rock-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Rock-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon, causing it to tie with {{t|Steel}} and {{t|Ground}} as the 6th rarest type after {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Electric}} and before {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Fighting}}.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 26 Rock-type [[move]]s, which makes up 2.78% of all moves (excluding those that are Rock-type only under certain circumstances), making it the rarest type among moves, with {{t|Dragon}}, {{t|Ground}}, and {{t|Flying}} tied as the second rarest.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Rock-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Fighting (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Rock-type Pokémon are generally listed as {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.

Fighting-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Grass}}, {{TCG|Water}} or {{TCG|Psychic}} with no resistances. Fighting-type Pokémon are strong against most {{TCG|Darkness}} and {{TCG|Lightning}} Pokémon and some {{TCG|Colorless}} Pokémon, whilst some Colorless and Psychic Pokémon can resist the Fighting type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation III]] introduced the most Rock-type Pokémon of any generation, with twelve. [[Generation VII]] introduced the fewest Rock-type Pokémon, with five.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Rock-type moves of any generation, with six, while [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Rock-type moves, with only {{m|Diamond Storm|one}}.
* Tied with {{t|Grass}}, Rock types have the most weaknesses of any type, with five.
* Rock-type Pokémon, on average, have the lowest {{stat|Speed}} of all Pokémon and of fully evolved Pokémon
* In the first season of the {{pkmn|anime}} and during much of [[Generation I]], the Rock-type was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by {{type|Electric}} attacks. This was likely due to the fact that at the time, most Rock-type Pokémon (namely the {{p|Geodude}} and {{p|Rhyhorn}} evolution lines, and {{p|Onix}}) were part Ground-type and thus immune to Electric-type moves. However, the only non-Ground Rock-type Pokémon around at the time (the then five [[Fossil]] Pokémon) were actually weak to them.
* In the anime on multiple occasions, like in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', ''[[EP193|Sick Daze]]'' and ''[[EP204|Right On, Rhydon!]]'', {{t|Ground}} and Rock-type Pokémon are said to have a strong aversion to water and generally being wet. {{p|Rhydon}} is often presented as an exception to this rule due to its ability to use the move {{m|Surf}}.
* The Rock type is tied with the {{t|Grass}} type for the largest number of weaknesses when unpaired, with five. However, a combination of the two types (Rock/Grass) would only have four weaknesses.
** Rock moves are super effective against four of the five types {{t|Grass}} is weak to, with {{t|Poison}} being the exception.
* Most [[Fossil]] Pokémon are either part or solely Rock-type. This is most likely due to the placement of real fossils in rock formations, as well as the process by which fossils are created.
* [[Johto]]'s [[Olivine Gym]] was a Rock-type Gym before the {{t|Steel}} type was discovered.
** This makes [[Unova]] the only region with Gyms not known to have ever had a Rock-type Gym.
* The Rock-type has the fewest [[special move]]s of all types, with three.
* Despite being introduced in [[Generation I]], there were no pure Rock-type Pokémon until [[Generation II]], with only {{p|Sudowoodo}}.
* The Rock type has been paired up with every other type except for {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Normal}}.
** This makes Rock the only type to not have been paired up with Ghost.
* Rock is the only type not represented by a [[Gym Leader]], an [[Elite Four]] member, or a [[Team Star]] Boss in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].
** However, [[Tyme]] is stated to be a former Rock-type Gym Leader. Moreover, {{pkmn|Champion|Top Champion}} [[Geeta]]'s ace Pokémon {{p|Glimmora}} is and {{Tera}}stallizes into the Rock-type, like the aces of the other types' specialists.

Flashlight237: /* Icons */

{{types}}
The '''Ice type''' (Japanese: '''こおりタイプ''' ''Ice type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Ice-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Dragon}}-, {{t|Flying}}-, {{t|Grass}}-, and {{type|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Ice-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Fighting}}-, {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type|Steel}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

===Additional effects===
In [[Generation I]], Ice-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} cannot get {{status|frozen}} by Ice-type [[move]]s, which are the only moves that can freeze their targets. In [[Generation II]], Ice-type Pokémon cannot get frozen by Ice-type moves, but they can get frozen by the {{type|Normal}} move {{m|Tri Attack}}. Starting in [[Generation III]], Ice-type Pokémon cannot get frozen at all.

Ice-type Pokémon are also immune to {{weather|hail}} and, as of [[Generation VII]], the move {{m|Sheer Cold}}. From Generation VII onwards, Sheer Cold also has increased {{stat|accuracy}} when used by an Ice-type Pokémon.

As of [[Generation IX]], the {{stat|Defense}} of Ice-type Pokémon is increased by 50% during [[snow]].

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ice-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ice-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Ice-type (counting those that are Ice-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[regional form]]s), making it the least common [[type]] among Pokémon, followed by the {{t|Fairy|Fairy type}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 33 Ice-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.53% of all moves (excluding those that are Ice-type only under certain circumstances), making it the third rarest type among moves, after {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Ground}}, and {{t|Dragon}} and before {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Ghost}}, and {{t|Fairy}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Ice-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with the Ice type===
A {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become an Ice-type Pokémon if it uses an Ice-type [[move]]. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|Forecast}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become an Ice-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with an Ice-type move, is sent out against an Ice-type opponent, if the [[weather]] is [[hail]], if it is holding an [[Ice Memory]], or if it is holding an [[Icicle Plate]] or [[Icium Z]].

==In the TCG==
{{main|Water (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Ice-type Pokémon are generally listed as {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

Ice-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Fighting}} and {{TCG|Metal}} with no resistances. Ice-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Fighting}} and {{TCG|Fire}} Pokémon, whilst {{TCG|Grass}} and {{TCG|Colorless}} Pokémon can resist this type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation VIII]] introduced the most Ice-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with eleven, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Ice-type Pokémon, with four.
** Should [[regional form]]s not be counted, [[Generation VII]] introduced the fewest, with only one, {{p|Crabominable}}.
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Ice-type [[move]]s of any generation, with six, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Ice-type moves, with only one, {{m|Freeze-Dry}}.
* In Generation I, no Ice-type Pokémon were able to [[Evolution|evolve]]. They either were in the final stage of their evolutionary family or were not part of one. The first Ice-type Pokémon that could evolve during their debut were {{p|Swinub}} and {{p|Smoochum}}.
** Although the Ice type existed since Generation I, pure Ice-type Pokémon were not introduced until [[Generation III]].
* The Ice type has the fewest resistances of all [[type]]s, only being resistant to itself.
* The Ice type has the most [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique combinations with other types]] of all other types, with 8.
* Similar to {{type|Fire}} moves, all Ice-type moves were {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} moves in Generation III.
** The only Ice-type move that is not {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} is {{m|Ice Fang}}, which is {{OBP|Cool|condition}} instead.
* Only the {{t|Normal|Normal type}} has a lower number of resistances than the Ice-type, having no resistances (but one {{t|Ghost|immunity}}).
* The Ice type is the only type that is super effective against the {{type|Flying}} and {{type|Grass}} to not resist them in turn.
* Ice-type attacks are resisted by all types that {{type|Water}} Pokémon resist.
* The Ice type is tied with the {{type|Electric}} for the fewest Pokémon who can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]], with two each.
** It is also tied with the {{t|Ground}}- and {{t|Ghost|Ghost types}} for the fewest Pokémon that can [[Gigantamax]], with 1 each.
* The Ice type is the only type excluded from the [[List of Pokémon by Kalos Pokédex number|Central Kalos Pokédex]].
* All Ice-type moves are eligible to be used in [[Sky Battle]]s.
* There has been at least one Ice-type [[type expert|specialist]] in every [[region]] and [[generation]]. It shares this trait with the {{t|Psychic}}- and {{t|Fighting}} types.
** The Ice type is the only type to not have a notable specialist native to the [[Alola]] region. Instead, [[Sina]] from the [[Kalos]] region is an Ice-type Pokémon specialist in {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.
* The Ice type has been paired up with every other type except for Normal and {{t|Poison}}, the most common of these being Water, with 8.
** This makes Ice the only type to have not been been paired up with Poison.

----
{{types}}
The '''Ground type''' (Japanese: '''じめんタイプ''' ''Ground type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Ground-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Electric}}-, {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Ground-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Grass}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type|Water}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

===Additional effects===
Ground-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Thunder Wave}}, unless they are holding the [[Ring Target]], introduced in [[Generation V]].

Ground-type Pokémon are also immune to damage from the {{weather|sandstorm}} weather condition, introduced in [[Generation II]]. During a sandstorm, Ground-type moves used by a Pokémon with {{a|Sand Force}} have their power increased by 30%.

From [[Generation II]] onwards, Ground-type moves cannot hit Pokémon under the effects of the moves {{m|Magnet Rise}} or {{m|Telekinesis}}, the [[Air Balloon]], or the {{Abilities}} {{a|Levitate}} or {{a|Earth Eater}}, though all Pokémon except those with {{a|Earth Eater}} lose their immunity to Ground-type moves when they are [[grounded]] (such as by holding an [[Iron Ball]] or being under the effects of the moves {{m|Ingrain}} ([[Generation IV]] onward), {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Smack Down}}, or {{m|Thousand Arrows}}). Ground-type moves will also affect {{t|Flying}} type Pokémon when they lose their ungrounded status.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ground-type Pokémon|pages}} Ground-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Ground-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Ground-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Galarian form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Steel}} as the 6th rarest type after {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Electric}} and before {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Fighting}}.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 31 Ground-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.32% of all moves (excluding those that are Ground-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Flying}} and {{t|Dragon}} as the second rarest type among moves, with {{t|Rock}} as the rarest.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Ground-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Fighting (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Ground-type Pokémon are generally listed as {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.

Ground-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Grass}} and {{TCG|Water}} with a resistance to the {{TCG|Lightning}}-type. Fighting-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Colorless}}, {{TCG|Darkness}} and {{TCG|Lightning}} Pokémon, whilst some {{TCG|Colorless}} and {{TCG|Psychic}} Pokémon can resist the Fighting type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Ground-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 14, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest, with two.
* Generations I, VI, and {{gen|VIII}} introduced the most Ground-type moves of any Generation, with five, while [[Generation IX]] introduced the fewest, with zero.
* Generation VI and IX are the only Generations to not introduce a pure Ground-type Pokémon.
* The Ground type has the highest ratio of super effective offensive matchups over resistances; with five weaknesses opposed to two resistances and one immunity.
* The Ground type is tied with {{t|Fighting}} for the most super effective matchups.
* In the anime, Ground-type Pokémon's immunity to {{type|Electric}} attacks is treated inconsistently, sometimes upheld and sometimes ignored. The anime (in particular ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'') also implies that Ground's immunity to Electric 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 was not enough to completely incapacitate it, as well as environmental factors (such as water being sprayed on it).
* In the anime on multiple occasions, like in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', ''[[EP193|Sick Daze]]'' and ''[[EP204|Right On, Rhydon!]]'', Ground and {{t|Rock}}-type Pokémon are said to have strong aversion to water and generally being wet. {{p|Rhydon}} is often presented as an exception to this rule due to its ability to use the move {{m|Surf}}.
* Each type that resists {{t|Flying}} is weak to Ground, and vice versa.
* More Pokémon are immune to Ground-type moves than any other type, as Flying-type Pokémon and Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Levitate}} and {{a|Earth Eater}} are immune to Ground.
* Ground is the only type in the [[Generation II]] games and their remakes that a notable Trainer does not [[Type expert|specialize in]].
* Out of all the types, Ground has the most [[moves]] ineligible for [[Sky Battle]]s, with 12.
* Ground and Flying are tied with having the fewest notable type specialists, with only five each.
* The Ground type has been paired up with every other type except for {{t|Fairy}}.

Psychic (type)

Flashlight237: /* Icons */

{{types}}
The '''Psychic type''' (Japanese: '''エスパータイプ''' ''Esper type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Psychic-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Fighting}}- and {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Psychic-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Dark}}-, and {{type|Ghost}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''
===Generation I===

|se={{TypeIcon|Bug}}{{TypeIcon|Ghost}}{{TypeIcon|Dark}}
|nve={{TypeIcon|Fighting}}{{TypeIcon|Psychic}}
}}
{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
If the Psychic-type [[move]] {{m|Miracle Eye}} affects a {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, its immunity to Psychic-type attacks will be removed.

When {{m|Psychic Terrain}} (introduced in [[Generation VII]]) is in effect, the power of Psychic-type moves is increased by 30% (50% prior to [[Generation VIII]]) if the user is [[grounded]].

===Generation I balance issues===
In the [[Generation I]] games, Psychic-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} were at the center of a balance issue.<ref> Sugimori, Ken ''"Psychic Pokémon seemed to dominate in the previous Pokémon game, so we needed to come up with {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|new Pokémon}} and [[type]]s to make {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} more balanced."'' Nintendo Power 134 (July 2000) p. 79 (retrieved August 16, 2010)</ref> This issue was rectified in [[Generation II]], with the addition of the {{t|Steel}} and {{t|Dark}} types as well as of more moves that are strong against Psychic types.

Additionally, Psychic-type Pokémon were immune to {{type|Ghost}} moves instead of being super effective, although this was seemingly not intended as it contradicts the statement of {{tc|Psychic}} Johan in [[Saffron Gym]]. However, his dialogue was adjusted in the English version of {{game|Yellow}} to reflect the observed behavior, whereas the Japanese versions preserved the original text from {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Psychic-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Psychic-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Psychic-type (counting those that are Psychic-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[regional form]]s), making it the 5th most common [[type]] among Pokémon after {{t|Flying}} and before {{t|Bug}}. After the introduction of Galarian {{p|Slowbro}} in [[Generation VIII]], all other types have been paired up with the Psychic type at least once, making it the third type to have this trait.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 79 Psychic-type [[move]]s, which makes up 8.46% of all moves (excluding those that are Psychic-type only under certain circumstances), making it the second most common type among moves after {{t|Normal}} and before {{t|Grass}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Psychic-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may also now be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

===Interacting with the Psychic type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become a Psychic-[[type]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} if it uses a Psychic-type [[move]]. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|Mimicry}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Psychic-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Psychic-type move, is sent out against a Psychic-type opponent, if the [[terrain]] is {{m|Psychic Terrain|psychic}}, if it is holding a [[Psychic Memory]], or if it is holding a [[Mind Plate]] or [[Psychium Z]].

A {{p|Darmanitan}} with {{a|Zen Mode}} will also change from a Fire-type into a dual Fire/Psychic-type form upon losing more than 50% of its HP.

===Exclusive Abilities===
Only Psychic-type Pokémon have these {{Abilities}}. This does not include [[Signature Ability|signature Abilities]].

==In the TCG==
{{main|Psychic (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Psychic generally adopts all {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon under its typing. It also adopted {{type|Poison}} Pokémon after the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} set, whereas previously they were a part of the {{TCG|Grass}}-type, though they would later be incorporated into {{TCG|Darkness}} in {{TCG|Sword & Shield}}. {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon were also adopted into {{TCG|Psychic}} in the same set.

Psychic-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Darkness}}, {{TCG|Metal}}, and other Psychic Pokémon (until Sword & Shield), with no resistances. Psychic-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Fighting}}, {{TCG|Grass}} (until Diamond & Pearl), and {{TCG|Psychic}} Pokémon (until Sword & Shield), whilst {{TCG|Colorless}}, {{TCG|Darkness}} and {{TCG|Metal}} Pokémon can resist this type.

==Trivia==

* [[Generation III]] introduced the most Psychic-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with 20, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Psychic-type Pokémon, with six.
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Psychic-type [[move]]s of any generation, with 15, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Psychic-type moves, with only one, {{m|Hyperspace Hole}}.
* The Psychic-type is the most common [[type]] for {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], with at least two Psychic-type Legendary or Mythical Pokémon introduced in each generation (except [[Generation VI]], which only introduced {{p|Hoopa|one}}) for a total of 23 out of 85 (counting {{p|Phione}} and the [[regional form|Galarian]] [[legendary birds]]).
** It also has the most Pokémon with [[Mega Evolution]]s of all types, with ten.
* The Psychic-type is the only type that shares its name with a {{m|Psychic|move}} and {{tc|Psychic|Trainer Class}}.
* There has been at least one Psychic-type [[type expert|specialist]] in every [[region]] and [[generation]]. It shares this trait with the {{t|Fighting}} and {{t|Ice}} types, although Ice-type [[Pokémon Trainer]] [[Sina]] is not native to the [[Alola]] region where she can be battled.
** Psychic has the most notable type experts of any type, with 11 (12 if [[Tate and Liza]] are counted separately).
* In Generation I, the color gold was often used in relation to Psychic-type Pokémon, possibly as a reference to {{wp|Gold (color)#Parapsychology|parapsychology}}. [[Kanto]]'s Psychic-type [[Gym]] is located in [[Saffron City]] (saffron is a color similar to gold), and its badge is named ゴールドバッジ ''Gold Badge'' in Japanese. It is also represented in Pokémon designs such as the {{p|Abra}}-line, the {{p|Drowzee}}-line, {{p|Psyduck}}, and in {{p|Golduck}}'s name. In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon}} games, there's also the {{DL|Gummi|Gold Gummi}}, which is the Gummi variety loved by Psychic-type Pokémon.
* The Psychic-type could be considered a special counterpart to the {{t|Fighting}} type:
** The Psychic type's highest average stat is {{stat|Special Attack}}, while the Fighting type's is {{stat|Attack}}.
** The Psychic-type is the only former special type to not have any of its old moves changed into physical moves, while the Fighting-type is the only former physical type to not have any of its old moves changed into special moves.
** {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}, moves that counter physical and special attacks are, respectively, Fighting- and Psychic-type moves.
** {{m|Bulk Up}} and {{m|Calm Mind}}, moves that raise physical and special stats are, respectively, Fighting- and Psychic-type moves.
** The [[Cram-o-matic]] considers [[Choice Band]] and [[Muscle Band]] Fighting-type inputs and [[Choice Specs]] and [[Wise Glasses]] Psychic-type inputs.
* A Pokémon cannot have a double resistance to Psychic without being Psychic-type itself.
** However, a Psychic-type Pokémon also cannot have a double resistance to more than one type.
* {{a|Rattled}}, an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation V]], is affected by the weaknesses of the Psychic-type. However, no Psychic-type Pokémon has this Ability.

Poison (type)

2024-04-13T20:07:55Z

Flashlight237: More accurate since Pokemon HOME had long since been updated to Generation IX Type icons

{{types}}
The '''Poison type''' (Japanese: '''どくタイプ''' ''Poison type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Poison-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Fairy}}- and {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Poison-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Ground}}- and {{type|Psychic}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
Poison-type Pokémon cannot become {{status|poison}}ed, except by a Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Corrosion}}, introduced in [[Generation VII]].

From [[Generation IV]] onward, [[grounded]] Poison-type Pokémon will remove {{m|Toxic Spikes}} from its side when it switches in.

From [[Generation VI]] onward, when a Poison-type Pokémon uses the move {{m|Toxic}}, it cannot miss, bypassing {{stat|accuracy}} checks and semi-invulnerable turns from moves such as {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Dig}}.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Poison-type Pokémon|pages}} Poison-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Poison-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Poison-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[regional form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Fire}} as the 8th most common type after {{t|Bug}} and before {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Fighting}}.

* The stats shown for Starmobile are the exact [[stat]]s, not [[base stat]]s. The values are custom set rather than derived from base stats, [[level]], [[Nature]], [[IV]]s, and [[EVs]].

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 36 Poison-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.85% of all moves (excluding those that are Poison-type only under certain circumstances), making it the 5th rarest type among moves, after {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Ghost}}, and {{t|Fairy}} and before {{t|Steel}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Poison-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

A Pokémon with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become a Poison-type Pokémon if it uses a Poison-type move. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Poison-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Poison-type move, is sent out against a Poison-type opponent, is holding a [[Poison Memory]], or is holding a [[Toxic Plate]] or [[Poisonium Z]].

Poison-type Pokémon are also immune to becoming poisoned from the Abilities {{a|Poison Point}}, {{a|Poison Touch}}, {{a|Synchronize}}, or {{a|Effect Spore}}.

==In the TCG==
:''See also: [[Grass (TCG)]], [[Psychic (TCG)]] or [[Darkness (TCG)]]''

Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Poison-type Pokémon have been listed as three different types. They were listed as {{ct|Grass}} Pokémon prior to the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} set and as {{ct|Psychic}} Pokémon from Diamond & Pearl to {{TCG|Cosmic Eclipse}}. Starting with {{TCG|Sword & Shield}}, they are now listed as {{ct|Darkness}}.

Poison-type Pokémon in the TCG were generally weak to Psychic prior to Sword & Shield, as Grass or Psychic types, and are now weak to {{TCG|Fighting}}. They have no resistances. As Grass types, they were strong against some Fighting Pokémon prior to Diamond & Pearl; from Diamond and Pearl to Cosmic Eclipse, they were changed to the Psychic type, and were strong against most Fighting and Psychic types; and from Sword and Shield onward they are Darkness type, and are strong against most Psychic types. They can be resisted by Darkness from Diamond and Pearl to Cosmic Eclipse, as well as {{TCG|Metal}} until Sword and Shield.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Poison-type Pokémon of any generation, with 33, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Poison-type Pokémon, with two.
* Generation I had more Poison-type Pokémon (33) than Water-type Pokémon (32), and it was the only generation where Poison is the most common type.
* Generation I introduced the most Poison-type moves of any generation, with eight, and Generation II introduced the fewest Poison-type moves, with only {{m|Sludge Bomb|one}}.
* In Generation I, Poison-type moves are [[super effective]] against {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, while Bug-type moves are super effective against Poison-type Pokémon. This is the only case in which a pair of distinct types is super effective against each other.
* A Pokémon of every type except Poison was added to the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] in {{game|Platinum}}.
* The Poison type is the only one of the original 15 types not mentioned in the song [[2.B.A. Master]]. Instead, the "Flame type" (which does not exist) is mentioned.
* All types that are super effective against the {{t|Dark}} type are resisted by the Poison type.
* The Poison type is the type that has been represented by the most types in the TCG, with three.
* Only odd-numbered [[generation]]s introduced pure Poison-type Pokémon.
** [[Generation IX]] is the first one to break this chain, not adding any pure Poison-type Pokémon.
* The Poison type is one of the only two types, the other being {{t|Fairy}}, to not have any moves that cause [[flinch]]ing.
** However, the [[King's Rock]] and [[Razor Fang]], as well as the [[Ability]] {{a|Stench}} from [[Generation V]] onwards, may make any of them able to cause flinching.
* The Poison type is tied with the {{t|Steel}} type for being the most common type among [[Ultra Beasts]], with three Ultra Beasts being Poison- or Steel-type each.
* Poison and {{t|Flying}} are the only types to have at least one Pokémon in every [[Egg Group]] (not counting the {{egg3|Ditto}}).
* The Poison type has been paired up with every other type except for {{t|Ice}}.

Electric (type)

Flashlight237: /* Icons */

{{types}}
The '''Electric type''' (Japanese: '''でんきタイプ''' ''Electric type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Electric-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Flying}}- and {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Electric-type Pokémon are weak to {{type|Ground}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''
===Generation I===

{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
In [[Generation I]], Electric-type Pokémon cannot get {{stat|paralyzed}} by damage-dealing Electric-type [[move]]s, but can get paralyzed by other means. From [[Generation VI]] onward, Electric-type Pokémon cannot get paralyzed at all.

When the move {{m|Mud Sport}} (introduced in [[Generation III]]) is in effect, the power of Electric-type moves is decreased by 67% (50% prior to [[Generation V]]). When {{m|Electric Terrain}} (introduced in [[Generation VI]]) is in effect, the power of Electric-type moves is increased by 30% (50% prior to [[Generation VIII]]) if the user is [[grounded]].

All {{type|Normal}} moves become Electric-type moves when affected by the moves {{m|Ion Deluge}} (introduced in Generation VI) or {{m|Plasma Fists}} (introduced in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}). If the target is affected by the move {{m|Electrify}} (introduced in Generation VI) before it uses a move, the target's move becomes Electric-type for that turn.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Electric-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Electric-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Electric-type (counting those that are Electric-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Alolan form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Dragon}} as the fourth rarest [[type]] among Pokémon after {{t|Ghost}} and before {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Steel}}. After the introduction of {{p|Pawmo}}, {{p|Pawmot}}, and {{p|Iron Hands}} in Generation IX, all other types have been paired up with Electric at least once, making the Electric type the fifth type to have this trait after {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Psychic}}, and {{t|Dark}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 50 Electric-type [[move]]s, which makes up 5.35% of all moves (excluding those that are Electric-type only under certain circumstances), making it the 6th most common type among moves, after {{t|Water}} and {{t|Dark}} and before {{t|Fire}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Electric-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with the Electric type===
A {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become an Electric-type Pokémon if it uses an Electric-type [[move]]. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|Mimicry}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become an Electric-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with an Electric-type move, is sent out against an Electric-type opponent, if the [[terrain]] is {{m|Electric Terrain|electric}}, if it is holding an [[Electric Memory]], or if it is holding a [[Zap Plate]] or [[Electrium Z]].

Since Generation VI, Electric-type Pokémon are also immune to becoming paralyzed from the {{Abilities}} {{a|Static}}, {{a|Synchronize}}, or {{a|Effect Spore}}.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation IX]] introduced the most Electric-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with twelve, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest, with three.
* [[Generation VII]] and {{gen|VIII}} introduced the most Electric-type [[move]]s of any generation, each with nine, and [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest, with two.
* [[Generation III]] is the only generation that introduced no dual-type Electric-type Pokémon.
* Generation VI is the only generation that introduced no pure Electric-type Pokémon.
* The Electric type is tied with the {{t|Normal}} type for having the fewest weaknesses.
* All Electric-type moves introduced in [[Generation I]] have names beginning with the word "Thunder".
* In the first season of the {{pkmn|anime}} and during much of [[Generation I]], the {{type|Rock}} was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by Electric-type attacks. This was likely due to the fact that at the time, most Rock-type Pokémon (namely the {{p|Geodude}} and {{p|Rhyhorn}} [[evolution]] lines, and {{p|Onix}}) were part {{type|Ground}} and thus immune to Electric-type moves. However, the only Rock-type Pokémon who aren't also Ground-type around at the time (the then five [[Fossil]] Pokémon) were actually weak to them.
* In the anime, Ground-type Pokémon's immunity to Electric-type attacks was treated inconsistently during the [[original series]] and early parts of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', notably during ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'', where [[Ash's Pikachu]] was able to hurt [[Brock's Onix]] by simply having his voltage raised and Onix being doused in water.
** Ironically, the move {{m|Soak}}, introduced in [[Generation V]], has exactly the effect of the latter.
* The Electric-type is tied with the {{type|Ice}} for having the fewest Pokémon that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]], having two each.
* In ''[[AG007|Tree's a Crowd]]'', {{an|Brock}} states that {{type|Grass}} Pokémon resist Electric-type moves due to being able to diffuse the electricity into trees and the ground. He also explains that if Grass-type Pokémon are in the air, they cannot diffuse the electricity from Electric-type attacks, thereby dealing normally effective damage.

Flying (type)

2024-04-13T20:04:43Z

Flashlight237: /* Icons */

{{Types}}
The '''Flying type''' (Japanese: '''ひこうタイプ''' ''Flying type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Flying-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Fighting}}-, and {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Flying-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Electric}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type|Rock}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
From [[Generation II]] onwards, Flying-type Pokémon are not considered [[grounded]] for effects that affect grounded Pokémon (e.g. [[entry hazard]]s). This makes Flying-type Pokémon immune to the [[Ability]] {{a|Arena Trap}}, the [[move]] {{m|Rototiller}}, and all entry hazards (except {{m|Stealth Rock}}), but also from the benefits of [[terrain]]s (though they can still use Seeds). If Flying-type Pokémon lose their ungrounded status by methods like holding [[Iron Ball]] or being under the effect of moves such as {{m|Ingrain}} ([[Generation IV]] onward), {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Smack Down}} or {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, they also lose their immunity to Ground-type Pokémon in addition to those benefitted from being ungrounded. Holding [[Ring Target]] makes them lose their type immunity to {{t|Ground}} type moves, but keeps ungrounded status for other effects.

When a Flying-type uses the move {{m|Roost}}, introduced in [[Generation IV]], it temporarily loses its Flying type for a turn. If a pure Flying-type Pokémon uses Roost, then it will become a {{t|???}} type in Generation IV and a {{t|Normal}} type in [[Generation V]] onward.

The move {{m|Sky Drop}}, introduced in [[Generation V]], allows the user to pick up a Flying-type Pokémon and make it unable to move. However, on the next turn, Sky Drop will fail and free the target, even if the target is grounded.

The effectiveness of the move {{m|Flying Press}}, introduced in [[Generation VI]], is calculated by multiplying the effectiveness of its move type (usually {{t|Fighting}}) and the Flying type.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Flying-type Pokémon|pages}} Flying-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Flying-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Flying-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]]), making it the 4th most common type after {{t|Grass}} and before {{t|Psychic}}. All other types have been paired up with Flying at least once — in [[Generation VI]], after the release of {{p|Hawlucha}}, Flying became the first type to have this trait.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 31 Flying-type [[move]]s, which makes up 3.32% of all moves (excluding those that are Flying-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Dragon}} as the second rarest type among moves, with {{t|Rock}} as the rarest.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Flying-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

{{DL||Changed types|Some moves}} have had their types changed.

===Interacting with the Flying type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become a Flying-type Pokémon if it uses a Flying-type move. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Flying-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Flying-type move, is sent out against a Flying-type opponent, is holding a [[Flying Memory]], or is holding a [[Sky Plate]] or [[Flyinium Z]].

Flying-type Pokémon are immune to {{a|Arena Trap}}.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation I|Generations I]], {{gen|II}}, and {{gen|V}} introduced the most Flying-type Pokémon of any other generation, each with 19 (including {{p|Rotom}}'s Fan form in Generation V). [[Generation VIII]] introduced the fewest Flying-type Pokémon, with five.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Flying-type moves of any other generation, with seven. [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest Flying-type moves, with only one ({{m|Aeroblast}}).
** [[Generation IX]] is the only generation to not introduce a Flying-type move.
* With the introduction of {{p|Hawlucha}} and with {{p|Togetic}} and {{p|Togekiss}} having the newly introduced {{t|Fairy}} type replacing their previous {{t|Normal}} in [[Generation VI]], Flying became the first type to be paired with every other type officially.
* Flying-type Pokémon, on average, have the highest {{stat|Speed}} of all Pokémon. 
* Flying was the last type to receive:
** A single-type Pokémon, receiving one with {{p|Tornadus}} in Generation V.
** A dual-type Pokémon with its type as the primary one, receiving two with {{p|Noibat}} and {{p|Noivern}} in Generation VI.
* All Flying-type moves are eligible to be used in [[Sky Battle]]s.
* Flying and {{t|Ground}} are tied with having the fewest notable [[type expert]]s, at only five each.
* Flying and {{t|Poison}} are the only types to have at least one Pokémon in every [[Egg Group]] (not counting the {{egg3|Ditto}}).
* The only Flying-type Pokémon to be part of an evolution line with a [[split evolution]] are {{p|Scyther}}, {{p|Beautifly}}, {{p|Ninjask}}, and {{p|Mothim}}; all four Pokémon are the only Flying-type Pokémon in their evolution lines.
* No Pokémon that are part of an evolution line have a final form that is pure Flying-type.

Grass (type)

Flashlight237: More accurate since Pokemon HOME had long since been updated to Generation IX Type icons

{{types}}
The '''Grass type''' (Japanese: '''くさタイプ''' ''Grass type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Grass-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Ground}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Grass-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Flying}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{type|Poison}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''

===Additional effects===
Grass-type Pokémon are immune to {{m|Leech Seed}}.

Starting in [[Generation VI]], Grass-type Pokémon are immune to {{cat|powder and spore moves}} and {{a|Effect Spore}}.

Grass-type Pokémon are the only Pokémon affected by the [[stat]]-raising moves {{m|Rototiller}} and {{m|Flower Shield}}, introduced in Generation VI.

{{m|Forest's Curse}}, introduced in Generation VI, adds the Grass type to the target's types.

When {{m|Grassy Terrain}} is in effect, the power of Grass-type moves is increased by 30% (50% prior to [[Generation VIII]]) if the user is [[grounded]].

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Grass-type Pokémon|pages}} Grass-type Pokémon or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Grass-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Grass-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]]), making it the third most common type after {{t|Normal}} and before {{t|Flying}}. As of [[Generation IX]] and the introduction of {{p|Scovillain}}, all other types have been paired up with Grass at least once.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==Moves==

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Grass-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with the Grass type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Protean}} or {{a|Libero}} will become a Grass-type Pokémon if it uses a Grass-type move. A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Imposter}}, {{a|Mimicry}}, {{a|RKS System}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Grass-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Grass-type move, is sent out against a Grass-type opponent, if the [[terrain]] is grassy, if it is holding a [[Grass Memory]], or if it is holding a [[Meadow Plate]] or [[Grassium Z]].

Since Generation VI, Grass-type Pokémon are also immune to {{a|Effect Spore}}.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Grass (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Grass generally adopts all {{type|Bug}} Pokémon under its typing. It also adopted {{type|Poison}} Pokémon prior to the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} set, after which they were moved to {{TCG|Psychic}}.

Similar to the games, Grass-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Fire}} and resist {{TCG|Water}}. Grass-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Fighting}}, {{TCG|Water}}, and {{TCG|Darkness}} Pokémon. {{TCG|Metal}} Pokémon resisted it until the {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} expansion set, and then from {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} onward.

* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Grass-type Pokémon of any generation, with 21 (including Rotom's Mow form), and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Grass-type Pokémon, with nine.
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Grass-type moves of any generation, with 10, and [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest Grass-type moves, with three.
* The Grass type is tied with {{t|Rock}} in having the most weaknesses out of all types, with five.
* The Grass type is tied with {{t|Bug}} as the most resisted type, being resisted by seven types.
* The Grass type and/or Pokémon of the type have been referred to using the term "plant" instead on some occasions:
** In the English Generation I games, the [[Gym guide]] in [[Cerulean Gym]] refers to Pokémon of the Grass type as "plant Pokémon". In the English versions of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, he instead mentions "Grass-type Pokémon". In the Japanese versions of the Generation I games and FireRed and LeafGreen, he mentions the Grass type itself, calling it the "Plant type" (Japanese: しょくぶつタイプ).
** Another reference to "plant Pokémon" (Japanese: しょくぶつポケモン) is made by [[Professor Oak]] in the Japanese {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}, and international {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, classifying {{p|Bulbasaur}} as such when the {{player}} is about to choose it as their [[first partner Pokémon]]. This is also the case in the Japanese versions of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}; in contrast, he calls it the "grass Pokémon" in the English versions.
*** This same reference is also used in the [[PO01|first episode]] of [[Pokémon Origins]].
** In multiple languages, such as French and German, the Grass type is translated as the Plant type.
** The Turkish dub of the anime occasionally refers to the Grass type ("Çimen türü") as the "Plant type" ("Bitki türü").
* The Grass type has been paired with every other type at least once.
* The Grass type has the most Pokémon that evolve by [[Evolution stone]]s, with a total of 12. It is also the type that can utilize the most stones, having at least one Pokémon that can evolve via the [[Leaf Stone]], [[Sun Stone]], [[Water Stone]], [[Shiny Stone]], and [[Fire Stone]].
* The Grass type is the only type to have more than one {{cat|HP-draining moves|HP-draining move}}, having five of them.
* Grass-type attacks deal doubly super-effective damage to the most Pokémon of all types.
* Grass-type attacks are super effective against the three types that the {{t|Fire}} type is weak to.
* In ''[[AG007|Tree's a Crowd]]'', {{an|Brock}} states that Grass-type Pokémon resist {{type|Electric}} moves due to being able to diffuse the electricity into trees and the ground. He also explains that if Grass types are in the air, they cannot diffuse the electricity from Electric attacks, thereby dealing normally effective damage.

{{types}}

Fighting-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Dark}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, {{t|Normal}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Fighting-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Flying}}-, {{t|Fairy}}-, and {{type|Psychic}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fighting-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fighting-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Fighting-type (counting those that are Fighting-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Mega Evolution]]s and [[regional form]]s), causing it to tie with {{t|Dark}} as the 9th rarest [[type]] among Pokémon after {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Steel}} and before {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Poison}}. All other types have been paired up with Fighting at least once.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 57 Fighting-type [[move]]s, which makes up 6.10% of all moves (excluding those that are Fighting-type only under certain circumstances), making it the 4th most common [[type]] among moves, after {{t|Grass}} and before {{t|Water}} and {{t|Dark}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Fighting-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Fighting (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Fighting generally adopts all {{t|Rock}}- and {{type|Ground}} Pokémon under its typing.

Fighting-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Psychic}} with no resistances. Fighting-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Colorless}}, {{TCG|Darkness}} and {{TCG|Lightning}} Pokémon, whilst some {{TCG|Colorless}} and {{TCG|Psychic}} Pokémon can resist the Fighting type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Fighting-type Pokémon of any [[generation]], with 16 (including Meloetta's Pirouette Forme), and [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest, with three.
* [[Generation I|Generations I]], II, and {{gen|IV}} introduced the most Fighting-type moves of any Generation, with eight, and [[Generation VII]] introduced the fewest, with only one: {{m|All-Out Pummeling}}.
* Fighting has been paired up with every other type at least once.
** The Fighting type was the last type to receive a Pokémon with {{t|Flying}} as the other type, only receiving one with {{p|Hawlucha}} in [[Generation VI]].
* All Fighting-type moves that do damage only target one foe, and all [[physical move|physical]] Fighting-type moves make [[contact]] except for one, {{m|Meteor Assault}}.
* There has been at least one Fighting-type [[type expert|specialist]] in every [[region]] and [[generation]]. It shares this trait with the {{t|Psychic}} and {{t|Ice}} types, although Ice-type trainer [[Sina]] is not native to the [[Alola]] region where she can be battled.
** [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield]] is the only [[core series]] game not to feature a notable Fighting-type specialist, as [[Bea]] is exclusive to Pokémon Sword, and replaced in Shield with [[Allister]].
* Color representations for the Fighting type have generally been inconsistent in various Pokémon media. While the Fighting type has been associated with the color red in the main Pokémon games since [[Generation III]] and up to {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}}, it is associated with orange in the {{g|Stadium series}}, the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], [[Pokémon Masters EX]], and the main Pokémon games since {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}. It is also associated with the color brown in the {{g|Trading Card Game}}.
* The Fighting type is the most common secondary type for evolutions of [[first partner Pokémon]], with six first partner Pokémon lines being paired with it, three of them being {{type|Fire}}.
* The Fighting type could be considered a physical counterpart to the {{t|Psychic}} type:
** The highest average stat among all Fighting-type Pokémon is {{stat|Attack}}, while for Psychic-type Pokémon, it is {{stat|Special Attack}}.
** While the Fighting type is the only formerly physical type to not have any old moves changed into special moves, the Psychic type is the only formerly special type to not have any old moves changed into physical moves.
** {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}, moves countering physical and special attacks are, respectively, Fighting- and Psychic-type moves.
** {{m|Bulk Up}} and {{m|Calm Mind}}, moves raising physical and special stats are, respectively, Fighting- and Psychic-type moves.
** The [[Cram-o-matic]] considers [[Choice Band]] and [[Muscle Band]] Fighting-type inputs, and [[Choice Specs]] and [[Wise Glasses]] Psychic-type inputs.
* The Fighting type is tied with the {{t|Ground}} type for being super effective against the most amount of types, with five.
* The Fighting type is the only type that deals super effective damage against the {{t|Normal}} type.
* On average, Fighting-type Pokémon have the highest physical {{stat|Attack}} of all types. 
* The Fighting and {{t|Bug}} types are the only two separate types that resist each other.
* Every Fighting-type [[Gym Leader]] and [[Elite Four]] member, along with [[Eri]] from [[Team Star]], uses a {{p|Machamp}} or a {{p|Lucario}} or in at least one of their teams.

* The Fighting type is the most common type for [[Paradox Pokémon]] to have, with five Paradox Pokémon being Fighting-type.

Water (type)

2024-04-13T20:00:27Z

Flashlight237: More accurate since Pokemon HOME had long since been updated to Generation IX Type icons

{{Types}}
The '''Water type''' (Japanese: '''みずタイプ''' ''Water type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Water-type [[move]]s are super effective against {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, and {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Water-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Electric}}- and {{type|Grass}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''
===Generation I===

{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
During {{weather|rain}} (introduced in [[Generation II]]) or {{a|Primordial Sea|heavy rain}} (introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}), the power of Water-type [[move]]s is increased by 50%. During {{weather|harsh sunlight}} (introduced in Generation II), the power of Water-type moves is decreased by 50%. During {{a|Desolate Land|extremely harsh sunlight}} (introduced in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire), all Water-type moves will fail.

The move {{m|Soak}}, introduced in [[Generation V]], causes the target to [[type change|become]] a pure Water-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

Water-type Pokémon are weak to the {{type|Ice}} move {{m|Freeze-Dry}}, introduced in [[Generation VI]], despite normally being resistant to Ice-type moves.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Water-type Pokémon|pages}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or {{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Water-type Pokémon|pages}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all Pokémon are Water-type (counting those that are Water-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]]), making it the most common of the eighteen [[type]]s among Pokémon, with {{t|Normal}} coming in second. After the introduction of {{p|Volcanion}} in [[Generation VI]], all other types have been paired up with Water at least once, making it the second type to have this trait, after {{t|Flying}} and followed by {{t|Psychic}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 53 Water-type [[move]]s, which makes up 5.67% of all moves (excluding those that are Water-type only under certain circumstances), causing it to tie with {{t|Dark}} as the 5th most common type among moves, after {{t|Fighting}} and before {{t|Electric}}.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Water-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Water (TCG)}}
Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Water generally adopts all {{type|Ice}} Pokémon under its typing.

Similar to the games, Water-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to {{TCG|Grass}} and {{TCG|Lightning}} with no resistances. Water-type Pokémon are strong against {{TCG|Fighting}} and {{TCG|Fire}} Pokémon, whilst {{TCG|Grass}} Pokémon and some {{TCG|Colorless}} Pokémon can resist this type.

----
{{Types}}
The '''Normal type''' (Japanese: '''ノーマルタイプ''' ''Normal type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Normal-type [[move]]s are not super-effective against any {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Normal-type Pokémon are weak to {{type|Fighting}} moves.

==Battle properties==
''Note: Type effectiveness multipliers may vary in other {{pkmn|games}} outside the [[core series]].''
===Generation I===
{{Flexheader}}
{{TypeProperties
|type=Normal
|prop=Off
|nve={{TypeIcon|Rock}}
|immune={{TypeIcon|Ghost}}
}}
{{TypeProperties
|type=Normal
|prop=Def
|se={{TypeIcon|Fighting}}
|immune={{TypeIcon|Ghost}}
}}
{{Flexfooter}}

===Generation II onwards===
{{Flexheader}}
{{TypeProperties
|type=Normal
|prop=Off
|nve={{TypeIcon|Rock}}{{TypeIcon|Steel}}
|immune={{TypeIcon|Ghost}}
}}
{{TypeProperties
|type=Normal
|prop=Def
|se={{TypeIcon|Fighting}}
|immune={{TypeIcon|Ghost}}
}}
{{Flexfooter}}

===Additional effects===
If the user has the [[Ability]] {{a|Scrappy}} or {{a|Mind's Eye}}, or the target is under the effect of the [[move]]s {{m|Foresight}} or {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, Normal-type moves will deal ×1 damage to {{type|Ghost}} Pokemon.

In [[Generation I]], Normal-type Pokémon cannot be {{status|paralyzed}} by {{m|Body Slam}}. Normal-type Pokémon are also affected by {{m|Night Shade}}, despite the move being Ghost-type, which the Normal type is normally immune to.

From [[Generation II]] onwards, Normal-type Pokémon can be paralyzed by Body Slam and are immune to Night Shade.

==Pokémon==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are {{#expr: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Normal-type Pokémon|pages}}-8}} {{cat|Normal-type Pokémon}} or {{#expr: (({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Normal-type Pokémon|pages}}-8)/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}% of all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, making it the second most common type after {{t|Water}} and before {{t|Grass}}. In [[Generation VI]], there are 8 Pokémon that changed their Normal-type into {{type|Fairy}}.

The Pokémon below are listed by their current types. {{DL||Changed types|Some Pokémon}} have had their types changed, usually when a new type was introduced.

==Moves==
As of [[Generation IX]], there are 202 Normal-type [[move]]s, which makes up 21.62% of all moves (excluding those that are Normal-type only under certain circumstances), making it the most common type among moves, with {{t|Psychic}} coming in second.

Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Normal-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]], depending on the move.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Normal-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any [[generation]], with 22 (24 if {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}, who had their [[type]] changed from [[Generation VI]] onward, are counted). Generation VI introduced the fewest Normal-type Pokémon, with eight.
* Generation I introduced the most Normal-type [[move]]s of any generation, with 78 (counting {{m|Gust}}, {{m|Karate Chop}}, {{m|Bite}}, and {{m|Sand-Attack}}, which had their type changed from [[Generation II]] onward). Generation VI introduced the fewest Normal-type moves, with eight.
* With {{#expr: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Normal-type moves|pages}}-7}} {{cat|Normal-type moves}}, this type has the most moves available.
** Additionally, there are two unique Normal-type [[Max Move]]s (not including [[G-Max Move]]s), the most of any type.
** The Normal type is the only type that has more moves than Pokémon.
* The Normal type is tied with the {{t|Electric}} type for the fewest defensive weaknesses.
* The Normal type is the only type that does not have any resistances.
* Normal-type Pokémon, on average, have the lowest {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} of all Pokémon and of fully [[evolution|evolved]] Pokémon.
* On average, fully evolved Pokémon with the Normal type have the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} of all types. 
* The Normal type is the only type that is not super effective against any other type.
* The Normal type has the fewest non-neutral type relations, with only four.
* {{t|Ghost}} and Normal are the only types that are immune to each other.
* No Pokémon gains the Normal type upon evolving. It shares this distinction with the {{t|Bug}} type.
** Additionally, no Pokémon gains the Normal type upon changing forms, unless reverting to its base form.
* Normal/{{t|Flying}} is the [[List of type combinations by abundance|most abundant]] dual-type combination.
* Normal has the most unused type combinations at four, as there are no Normal-type Pokémon that are also part {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Bug}}, and {{t|Ice}}.
** This makes Normal the only type that has not been paired up with {{t|Steel}}.
*** This also makes Normal the only type that has yet to be paired with every other type, to have more than two unused pairings.
* In {{pkmn|contest}}s, the Normal type has the most moves that can [[Jamming|jam]].
* [[Generation VI]] added the most new type combinations for Normal, the most dual-typed Normal Pokémon (if Pokémon retyped as Normal/{{t|Fairy}} are counted), the first dual-typed Pokémon with Normal as a secondary type, and the fewest Normal/Flying-type Pokémon (with only {{p|Fletchling|one}}) of any generation that introduced Pokémon with that type combination; [[Generation VIII]] did not introduce any.
** Prior to Generation VI, Normal was only present as a secondary type for Pokéstar Studio opponents, or on Glitch Pokémon (notably Red/Blue [[MissingNo.]]).
* Normal is the only type to have ever lost Pokémon, having lost Clefairy, Clefable, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Togetic}}, {{p|Snubbull}}, {{p|Granbull}}, and {{p|Togekiss}} when the Fairy type was introduced in [[Generation VI]].
** Additionally, it is the only type to have the same number of Pokémon in two consecutive generations.
* For the purpose of the [[Purify Chamber]], Normal is considered strong against itself, even though in battle, it is not.
* The Normal-type is frequently associated with type changing:
** More Pokémon lose the Normal type upon evolving than any other type, with a total of five (twelve if all of {{p|Eevee}}'s evolutions are counted separately).
** Eight Normal-type Pokémon have at least one [[signature move]] or a [[signature Ability]] which involves changing their type.
** Most moves which involve changing the user's type or with a varying damage type are Normal-type.
** Most {{Abilities}} that change a move's type affect Normal-type moves.
* Normal-type attacks are completely unresisted during an [[Inverse Battle]].
* Normal is the only type with no [[Paradox Pokémon]].
* {{Ash}} has never beaten a Normal-type [[Gym Leader]] on his first try in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* In {{g|Shuffle}}, Normal is the only type that lacks immunities to [[status condition#Pokémon Shuffle|status conditions]].
