'''Legendary Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|伝|でん}}{{ruby|説|せつ}}のポケモン''' ''Densetsu no Pokemon'', "Legendary Pokémon") are a group of incredibly rare and often very powerful {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. They are often featured prominently in the [[Myths and legends involving Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|legends and myths]] of the [[Pokémon world]], with some even going so far as to view them as deities.

As of {{CURRENTGEN}}, there are currently {{#expr:{{PAGESINCATEGORY:Legendary Pokémon}} - 15}} Legendary Pokémon. No explicit criteria defines what makes a Pokémon a Legendary Pokémon. Instead, the only way to identify a Pokémon as belonging to this group is through statements from official media, such as the {{pkmn|games}} or {{pkmn|animation}}.

==Terminology==
{{main|Terminology of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon}}

[[Mythical Pokémon]] are a related but separate group of Pokémon, which are usually {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive. In Western language media, Mythical Pokémon were considered to be Legendary Pokémon prior to [[Generation V]]; in Japanese and Korean media, the two groups have always been considered distinct.

[[Special Pokémon]] are a subcategory of Legendary Pokémon that are restricted or banned from certain official tournaments, battle facilities, and link battle formats. Most Special Pokémon are Legendary [[game mascot]]s.

In some uncommon cases, the term "Legendary Pokémon" is used to refer to Mythical Pokémon even after the Generation V games, such as in a painting of {{p|Arceus}} in the [[Lilycove Museum]] from [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], as well as {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Shaymin}}'s trophies in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]].

==List of Legendary Pokémon==
Of the {{numpkmn}} Pokémon species, 71 are Legendary Pokémon ({{#expr: (71/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}%). Each released [[generation]] has introduced at least three Legendary Pokémon.

Many Legendary groups share a common type, such as Flying.

===Generation I===
Four Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation I]], with one trio and one standalone Legendary Pokémon.

====Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres====
{{main|Legendary birds}}
The legendary birds—{{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Kanto]] region. Each of them is based on a mythical bird. Each is also associated with a {{season}} (though none of the three are associated with autumn).

In [[The Crown Tundra]] [[Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass|DLC]] for {{g|Sword and Shield}}, each of them gain a [[Galarian form]].

====Mewtwo====
{{p|Mewtwo}} is a Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Kanto]] region. It is the enhanced clone of the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}}. Mewtwo was too powerful for its creators and escaped from the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}, wrecking it in the process. Mewtwo then made its home in [[Cerulean Cave]], where all kinds of powerful Pokémon live.

In {{g|X and Y}}, Mewtwo gained the ability to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] through the use of its [[Mega Stone]]s, [[Mewtwonite X]] and [[Mewtwonite Y]], which are possibly artificial as well.

In [[Pokken Tournament]], Mewtwo is turned into [[Shadow Mewtwo]] by a Shadow synergy stone, which possessed it. It can also Mega Evolve into Mega Shadow Mewtwo X.

===Generation II===
Five more Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation II]], for a running total of 9. The Legendary Pokémon introduced in this generation down can be separated into a trio and a duo.

====Raikou, Entei, and Suicune====
{{main|Legendary beasts}}
The Legendary beasts—{{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Johto]] region. These legendary Pokémon are based on many different creatures, both real and mythical, as well as mythological deities. Suicune in special is the [[game mascot]] of [[Pokémon Crystal Version|Pokémon Crystal]].

According to legend, three Pokémon were trapped in the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] when it was struck by lightning and burned to the ground, resulting in their death; the trio was revived by the power of {{p|Ho-Oh}} and now [[roaming Pokémon|roam across the land]] because of their great power. Official sources differ in whether the three were already a Suicune, Raikou, and Entei when they died, or whether they were simply [[List of disputed and unidentified Pokémon|three unidentified non-Legendary Pokémon]] that Ho-Oh reincarnated as the first Legendary beasts. The Legendary beasts of the Johto region are not the only individuals of these species, however. For example, a new Entei is said to be born whenever a new volcano is formed. Additionally, the [[Sage (Trainer class)#Wise Trio|Wise Trio]] says that Suicune is the closest of the Legendary beasts to Ho-Oh and shares a cooperative bond with the {{p|Unown}}.<ref>"Of the legendary {{ScPkmn}}, Sᴜɪᴄᴜɴᴇ is said to be the closest to Hᴏ-ᴏʜ. I hear there may also be a link to {{ScPkmn}} known as Uɴᴏᴡɴ. The {{ScPkmn}} Uɴᴏᴡɴ must be sharing a cooperative bond with Sᴜɪᴄᴜɴᴇ." - Wise Trio, [https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/maps/TinTower1F.asm Pokecrystal Disassembly]</ref>

In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet]], a sketch resembling the members of the Legendary beasts can be found in the [[Scarlet Book]], dubbed "An Imagined Pokémon". Later, in [[The Indigo Disk]] [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero|DLC]] for the game, [[Paradox Pokémon|Paradox counterparts]] of Suicune, Entei, and Raikou are discovered in the form of {{p|Walking Wake}}, {{p|Gouging Fire}}, and {{p|Raging Bolt}}, respectively.

====Lugia and Ho-Oh====
{{main|Tower duo}}
The tower duo—{{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}—are a duo of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Johto]] region. They are the [[game mascot]]s of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. They are a pair of birdlike Pokémon based on the eastern legends of the {{wp|Fenghuang}} and {{wp|Ryūjin}}.

According to legend in the Johto region, they formerly resided in [[Ecruteak City]] atop tall towers; however, when the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]], the home of Lugia, was struck by lightning and burned to the ground, they both flew away. Lugia resolved to make its new home in the [[Whirl Islands]], while Ho-Oh left to search the world for a pure-hearted Trainer.

In {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, Lugia is turned into a [[Shadow Lugia]] by the criminal syndicate [[Cipher]].

{{an|Ho-Oh}} is notably the first Legendary Pokémon that appeared in the {{pkmn|animated series}} (outside of the [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|opening animation]], at least), flying over a rainbow as [[Ash Ketchum]] started his journey, at the end of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. Ash has subsequently seen it several times over the course of his journey, but has never come face-to-face with it. Ho-Oh also featured in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'' in a prominent role.

===Generation III===
Eight new Legendary Pokémon were added to the roster in [[Generation III]], bringing the total to 17. At this point in the series, Legendary Pokémon began to have a greater role in the storyline of the core series games, with the [[villainous team]]s plotting to reawaken the ancient Legendary Pokémon for their own use.

Many of the stories regarding the legendaries were slightly changed, or given a new perspective in the [[remakes]] of the first Generation III core series games, {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. Five of them also received new forms.

====Regirock, Regice, and Registeel====
{{main|Legendary giants}}
{{p|Regice}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regirock}} are three legendary giants {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Hoenn]] region. They are based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. This Legendary trio, as well as its leader, {{p|Regigigas}}, often require solving puzzles to find them in the games; in the Hoenn games, they can only be encountered after solving [[braille]] puzzles.

The legend of the giants is told in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Long ago, an ancient Pokémon, {{p|Regigigas}}, was said to have moved the continents into their present positions by pulling them with ropes. After it was finished, it created three Pokémon in its image: Regirock, from clay; Regice, from ice; and Registeel, from magma. Ancient people, seeing that the Pokémon was so powerful, sealed it away in the [[Snowpoint Temple]], while those it had created were separated from it and taken to the Hoenn region, sealed in three chambers, and left in the hopes that one day, someone would unlock the chambers and be able to tame the three so as to tame Regigigas.

In [[The Crown Tundra]] [[Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass|DLC]] for {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the trio becomes a quintet with two more introduced members: {{p|Regieleki}} and {{p|Regidrago}}.

====Latios and Latias====
{{main|Eon duo}}
The eon duo—{{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}}—are a duo of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Hoenn]] region.

Only one of the duo is normally available in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} as well as {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, with Latios being a [[roaming Pokémon]] in Ruby and SoulSilver, and Latias doing the same in Sapphire and HeartGold. In Emerald, after the player has defeated [[Wallace]], their mother will ask if the Pokémon mentioned on TV was red or blue, and depending on that, one of the two will be roaming Hoenn. The other member of the duo will be found on [[Southern Island]], accessible by [[Eon Ticket]], in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald; and in [[Pewter City]], through the [[Enigma Stone]] event, in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, Latias and Latios gained the ability to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] through the use of their [[Mega Stone]]s, [[Latiasite]] and [[Latiosite]] respectively.

====Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza====
{{main|Super-ancient Pokémon}}
The super-ancient Pokémon—{{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Hoenn]] region. They are the [[game mascot]]s of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. The trio represents the three major components of the Earth: the {{wp|hydrosphere}}, the {{wp|lithosphere}}, and the {{wp|atmosphere}}.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, all three gained new forms. Kyogre and Groudon can undergo [[Primal Reversion]] to become Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon through the use of the [[Blue Orb]] and the [[Red Orb]]. Rayquaza can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] without the need of a [[Mega Stone]], only needing to know the [[move]] {{m|Dragon Ascent}}.

According to legend, thousands of years ago, during the primal age, the world was overflowing with natural energy. Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre fought over that energy in endless furious clashes. In the face of Primal Groudon and Kyogre's great power, people could do nothing. However, Rayquaza intervened, and its power overwhelmed that of the two Primal Pokémon, and peace returned to the world. A thousand years later, a meteoroid hit the earth, causing cracks in the ground that unleashed natural energy, causing Groudon and Kyogre to re-battle each other. Humans had a collective memory of how Rayquaza saved their race long ago, and that wish combined with the power of the Meteorite allowed Rayquaza to Mega Evolve for the first time and calm the two from quarreling.

===Generation IV===
Nine more Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation IV]], bringing the total to 26 Legendary Pokémon. Many of the Legendary Pokémon of this generation have little connection to the plot of the games, instead being minor, post–[[Hall of Fame]] sidequests for the player to go on. Three of the newly introduced Legendary Pokémon (four prior to the {{game|Platinum}} expansion of the Pokédex) are not in the Sinnoh [[regional Pokédex]], appearing only in the [[National Pokédex]].

====Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf====
{{main|Lake guardians}}
The lake guardians—{{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Sinnoh]] region. They each represent the spirit of consciousness, with Uxie embodying knowledge, Mesprit embodying emotion, and Azelf embodying willpower. According to legend, having been created by {{p|Arceus|the Original One}}, the trio have the power to tame the powerful dragons it also created.

<gallery class="c" heights="200" widths="200">

====Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina====
{{main|Pokémon of myth}}
{{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}} are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Sinnoh]] region. They are the [[game mascot]]s of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}. Each represents an aspect of universe: {{p|Dialga}} represents time, {{p|Palkia}} represents space, and {{p|Giratina}} represents antimatter.

In the Sinnoh-based games only, Dialga and Palkia are referred to as "mythical Pokémon" (Japanese: 神話のポケモン ''mythical Pokémon''). The use of this term in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum predates the official term "[[Mythical Pokémon]]" in English. The term has a different name to "Mythical Pokémon" in all languages other than English.

In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Dialga and Palkia gained {{form|Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina|Origin Formes}} like Giratina, through the use of the [[Adamant Crystal]] and the [[Lustrous Globe]].

===Generation V===
Nine additional Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation V]], totaling 35 Legendary Pokémon in all. {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} played a large role in the storyline of {{game|Black and White|s}}, with the respective mascot Pokémon being a necessary and unavoidable capture to progress to the end of the game.

====Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion====
{{main|Swords of Justice}}
The Swords of Justice—{{p|Cobalion}}, {{p|Terrakion}}, and {{p|Virizion}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Unova]] region. The [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Keldeo}} is also sometimes considered part of the Swords of Justice. The trio are based on the titular characters of the 1844 French novel ''{{wp|The Three Musketeers}}'', while Keldeo is based on their apprentice {{wp|d'Artagnan}}. They are also based on hooved mammals such as deer, antelopes, oxen, goats, and horses.

According to legend, they protect Pokémon from having their habitats destroyed by humans and have attacked a human castle. Keldeo was rescued and raised by the trio after its home was destroyed by fire. All four of them can use their horns like swords, and learn {{m|Sacred Sword}} (which was originally the group's [[signature move]]).

In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet]], a sketch resembling the members of the Swords of Justice can be found in the [[Violet Book]], dubbed "An Imagined Pokémon". Later, in [[The Indigo Disk]] [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero|DLC]], [[Paradox Pokémon|Paradox counterparts]] of Virizion, Terrakion, and Cobalion are discovered in the form of {{p|Iron Leaves}}, {{p|Iron Boulder}} and {{p|Iron Crown}}, respectively.

====Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus====
{{main|Forces of nature}}
The forces of nature—{{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Unova]] region. They are based on {{wp|kami}}: {{wp|Fūjin}}, god of wind; {{wp|Raijin}}, god of thunder and lightning; and {{wp|Inari Ōkami|Inari}}, a fertility deity. Together the three represent the heavens and the nourishing effect the sky has upon the earth.

In {{B2W2}}, they gained the ability to switch between their default, Incarnate Formes and their alternate, Therian Forme through the use of the [[Reveal Glass]].

According to a folktale retold by children at the [[Abundant Shrine]], Landorus punished Tornadus and Thundurus for destroying the land with gales and thunderstorms, and a shrine was built in honor of him.

In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, the trio becomes a quartet with one more introduced member: {{p|Enamorus}}.

====Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem====
{{main|Tao trio}}
{{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, and {{p|Kyurem}} are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Unova]] region. Reshiram and Zekrom are the [[game mascot]]s of {{game|Black and White|s}}, while Black Kyurem and White Kyurem are the mascots of {{B2W2}}. {{p|Zekrom}} and {{p|Reshiram}} represent balance through the aspects of {{wp|Tao|Yin and Yang}}, respectively.

According to legends, originally, they were a [[List of disputed and unidentified Pokémon|single dragon]] that helped found the Unova region's nation, but fighting between the [[Heroes of Truth and Ideals|two brothers]] who founded the nation split them into two halves; despite this, the two Pokémon do not willingly fight each other.

{{p|Kyurem}} is related to Reshiram and Zekrom and represents {{wp|Wuji (philosophy)|wuji}}, which is the absence of yin and yang. Using the [[DNA Splicers]], Kyurem can be fused with Reshiram or Zekrom into White Kyurem or Black Kyurem, respectively; with the same item, the fusion can be undone.

===Generation VI ===
Three additional Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation VI]], totaling 38 Legendary Pokémon. This is the first generation to introduce fewer Legendary Pokémon than the generation before it.

====Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde====
{{main|Aura trio}}
{{p|Xerneas}}, {{p|Yveltal}}, and {{p|Zygarde}} are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Kalos]] region. Xerneas and Yveltal are the [[game mascot]]s of {{g|X and Y}}. Xerneas and Yveltal represent life and destruction, respectively, while Zygarde is said to monitor the balance of the ecosystem and reveal its power when the ecosystem is disrupted. Xerneas has the power to share eternal life, while Yveltal absorbs the life force of everything around it. Xerneas sleeps in the form of a tree, while Yveltal sleeps in the form of a cocoon. Xerneas and Yveltal have the Abilities {{a|Fairy Aura}} and {{a|Dark Aura}}, respectively, while Zygarde's {{a|Aura Break}} reverses the effects of these Abilities.

Xerneas has {{fd|Xerneas|two forms}}, appearing in Active Mode in battle and Neutral Mode otherwise; Yveltal has no form differences. Zygarde appeared only as Zygarde 50% Forme in Pokémon X and Y, but had {{fd|Zygarde|two other forms}} and two further components introduced in the {{pkmn|animated series}} and in {{g|Sun and Moon}}. Zygarde's other forms are Zygarde 10% Forme, a dog-like form that includes 10% of Zygarde's full power, and Zygarde Complete Forme, whose power is said to exceed that of Xerneas and Yveltal. Its further components are Zygarde Cells, tiny cell-like creatures that make up Zygarde's body, and Zygarde Cores, cell-like creatures said to be its mind.

In {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, Zygarde gained the ability to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] through the use of its [[Mega Stone]], [[Zygardite]]. Mega Zygarde is said to have been born as a result of people's emotions during [[Ange#Hyperrogue Ange Floette|Hyperrogue Ange Floette]]'s final {{M|Light of Ruin|shot}} to destroy [[Lumiose City|Lumiose]], allowing Zygarde to stop it and calm the situation with its unmatched power.

[[Generation VII]] introduced eleven Legendary Pokémon, totaling 49 Legendary Pokémon. For the first time, Legendary Pokémon capable of [[Evolution]] are introduced—six of these Pokémon are part of [[List of Pokémon by evolutionary line|evolutionary lines]].

====Type: Null and Silvally====
{{main|Beast killer project}}
{{p|Type: Null}} and its evolved form {{p|Silvally}} are a pair of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Alola]] region.

({{g|Sun and Moon}})</ref><ref>Faba's blog from {{g|Sun and Moon}}: "My [[Lusamine|superior]]'s [[Gladion|family]] stole the results of our research and ran off."</ref> which aimed to create a Pokémon to fight against the [[Ultra Beast]]s. It was developed with data collected on [[Myths and legends involving Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|myths and legends]] involving a {{P|Arceus|Mythical Pokémon}} found from [[Canalave City]]'s [[Canalave Library|library]] in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]].

====Tapu Koko, Tapu Lele, Tapu Bulu, and Tapu Fini====
{{main|Guardian deities}}
The tapu—{{p|Tapu Koko}}, {{p|Tapu Lele}}, {{p|Tapu Bulu}}, and {{p|Tapu Fini}}—are a quartet of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Alola]] region. They serve as the guardian deities of each of Alola's four main islands: Tapu Koko on [[Melemele Island]], Tapu Lele on [[Akala Island]], Tapu Bulu on [[Ula'ula Island]], and Tapu Fini on [[Poni Island]].

Alola's [[island kahuna]]s are each chosen by their island's guardian deity. [[Island challenge|Grand trials]] are often done in favor and praise of the Tapu. The Tapu are known to be very kind in certain situations, lending gifts, but they can also be very cruel, destroying certain locations or harming others when feeling angered.

According ''The Light of Alola'', a book found in the [[Malie City|Malie Library]], the tapu fought off against a beast from another [[dimension]] and lost. They were rewarded with the [[Tapunium Z]], their signature [[Z-Crystal]]. The beast then created multiple {{p|Cosmog}} for the tapu to take care of and protect as they grow up before returning to [[Ultra Space]].

Ultra Wormholes can be created using gasses extracted by Cosmog,<ref>[[Lusamine]], {{g|Sun and Moon}}:''"I was able to open the Ultra Wormhole using just the gases we'd extracted from Cosmog when it was in Aether Paradise, wasn't I?"''</ref> but more can be created in heavier doses using the Pokémon as a whole. Cosmog evolves into Cosmoem under extreme stress, causing the Pokémon to condense into a smaller immobile form resembling a cocoon. With the help of the [[Sun Flute|Sun]] and [[Moon Flute]]s being played during certain times of the day, Cosmoem can evolve into either Solgaleo or Lunala when brought to the [[Altar of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|SUS}}/[[Altar of the Moone]]{{sup/7|MUM}}.

According to [[Malie City#Malie Library|Alolan legend]], Cosmog were given to the [[guardian deities]] by [[Light trio|Solgaleo and Lunala]] as heirs of the region, with the tapu watching over the Cosmog until they could grow up and evolve.

====Solgaleo, Lunala, and Necrozma====
{{p|Solgaleo}}, {{p|Lunala}}, and {{p|Necrozma}} are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Alola]] region. Solgaleo and Lunala are the [[game mascot]]s of {{g|Sun and Moon}}, while Dusk Mane Necrozma and Dawn Wings Necrozma are the mascots of {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. They are said to have come from [[Ultra Space]].

Solgaleo and Lunala have {{form|Solgaleo and Lunala|form-like transformations}} known as Radiant Sun phase and Full Moon phase respectively when using their powers. Necrozma has three additional forms (all introduced in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}): Dusk Mane Necrozma, Dawn Wings Necrozma, and Ultra Necrozma. It transforms into Dusk Mane Necrozma or Dawn Wings Necrozma when it has absorbed Solgaleo or Lunala, respectively. Either of these two forms can transform into Ultra Necrozma after absorbing enough light to restore its true form.

All three have their own unique Z-Crystals: [[Solganium Z]], [[Lunalium Z]] and [[Ultranecrozium Z]]. Necrozma, while transformed into either Dusk Mane or Dawn Wings, can make use of the other two's Z-Crystals. [[Z-Power]] comes from light produced by Necrozma,<ref>[[Dulse]], {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}: ''"These...auras...must have been particularly strong at the trial locations. And the Z-Power for the Z-Moves... It is also similar to the auras of the Totem Pokémon. Both came to Alola as Necrozma's light!"''</ref> while [[Z-Crystal]]s, [[Sparkling Stone]]s, and by extension [[Z-Ring]]s/[[Z-Power Ring]]s are pieces of Necrozma that channel Z-Power in order to produce [[Z-Move]]s.

According to "The Light of Alola", a book in the [[Malie City|Malie Library]], they gave light to the Alola region when it was first created. According to legends, when Solgaleo and Lunala appeared from an [[Ultra Wormhole]], the ancient kings of Alola bowed down to them and worshiped them. The guardian deities battled them and lost, with the duo gifting the tapu the [[Tapunium Z]] after their defeat. In legends in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Necrozma is referred to as "The Blinding One", as it once shared light across [[Alola]] and Ultra Space, before an unknown injury caused Necrozma to lose its true form. This resulted in Necrozma becoming extremely vicious and constantly in pain, which made it steal light from other worlds, and even from Solgaleo and Lunala, in order to sustain itself and regain the form it once had.

===Generation VIII===
In [[Generation VIII]], eleven Legendary Pokémon were introduced, bringing the total to 60. Of these, three were introduced in the base game of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, two were introduced in [[The Isle of Armor]], five were introduced in [[The Crown Tundra]], and one was introduced in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}. Additionally, The Crown Tundra introduced [[regional form]]s of three Legendary Pokémon from Generation I.

====Galarian Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres====
Galarian {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} are the [[Galarian form]]s of the [[legendary birds]]. They were {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Crown Tundra]] of the [[Galar]] region. The Galarian forms have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type, but they have a different primary type to their [[Kanto]]nian counterparts.

Every few decades, they migrate to the Dyna Tree at [[Dyna Tree Hill]] in the [[Crown Tundra]]. The trio battles one another each time they meet, although their rivalry does not seem as intense as that of their Kantonian counterparts. For some time, the Galarian legendary birds were believed to be the same as the Kantonian legendary birds due to their similar characteristics to {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fire}}, respectively.

According to legend, 3,000 years ago, a cataclysmic event known as the [[Darkest Day]] was caused by {{p|Eternatus}}'s awakening. Zacian and Zamazenta worked together to defend the region with the help of [[First kings of Galar|two human heroes]]. Together, they managed to take Eternatus down, forcing it back into another slumber. With Eternatus's defeat and the Darkest Day stopped, the two Legendary Pokémon retreated to the [[Slumbering Weald]] to return to their slumber, turning into statues while the two human heroes became Galar's new kings.

====Calyrex, Glastrier, and Spectrier====
{{p|Calyrex}}, {{p|Glastrier}}, and {{p|Spectrier}} are three Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Crown Tundra]] of the [[Galar]] region. They were introduced in [[The Crown Tundra]] [[Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass|DLC]] for {{g|Sword and Shield}}.

Calyrex can take on one of two alternate forms by combining with Glastrier or Spectrier using the [[Reins of Unity]]. When riding Glastrier, it becomes Ice Rider Calyrex; when riding Spectrier, it becomes Shadow Rider Calyrex.

According to legend, {{p|Glastrier}} or {{p|Spectrier}} had been terrorizing [[Freezington]], ruling the area as the "lord of the tundra". One day, Calyrex was nursed back to health by Freezington's citizens. To repay the citizens, Calyrex defeated Glastrier/Spectrier and gained its loyalty, making the Pokémon its loyal steed. Afterwards, Calyrex ruled over the [[Crown Tundra]]—known as the King of Bountiful Harvests, it helped spread vegetation and supported the harvest every year with its loyal steed. It was renowned for its graceful and regal movements.

====Enamorus====
{{p|Enamorus}} is a Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Hisui]] region. It was introduced in {{g|Legends: Arceus}} as the fourth member of the [[forces of nature]].

In [[Hisui]], it and {{p|Landorus}} were worshipped as the gods of field and spring who brought life to the region and signaled the end of winter, hence its title as the "Herald of Spring". According to legend, while it is known to be kind with its love, it will not hesitate to punish those who disrespect life.

===Generation IX ===
In [[Generation IX]], 11 Legendary Pokémon were introduced, bringing the total to 71. Of these, six were introduced in the base game of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, four in [[The Teal Mask]], and one in [[The Indigo Disk]].

====Wo-Chien, Chien-Pao, Ting-Lu, and Chi-Yu====
{{main|Treasures of ruin}}
The treasures of ruin—{{p|Wo-Chien}}, {{p|Chien-Pao}}, {{p|Ting-Lu}}, and {{p|Chi-Yu}}—are a quartet of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Paldea]] region. They have been referred to as cursed treasures and Pokémon of Ruin. All of them are {{type|Dark}}.

According to legend, these four Legendary Pokémon were once four ancient treasures, but were corrupted by negative human emotions. They came into the possession of an ancient king of Paldea. Eventually, the king's greed awakened them and unleashed disasters, resulting in these berserk Pokémon destroying the kingdom. All four were later sealed away in shrines by ancient Pokémon wielders after a fierce battle.

====Koraidon and Miraidon====
{{main|Paradox duo}}
{{p|Koraidon}} and {{p|Miraidon}} are a duo of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in the [[Paldea]] region. They are the [[game mascot]]s of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. They are [[Paradox Pokémon]], being past and future relatives of {{p|Cyclizar}}, respectively. Both are far more aggressive and powerful than their contemporary counterpart.

They can change into various forms to better facilitate travelling: Sprinting Build, Swimming Build, and Gliding Build for Koraidon; and Drive Mode, Aquatic Mode, and Glide Mode for Miraidon. While low in power, Koraidon and Miraidon assume the Limited Build and Low-Power Mode, respectively, while at their full strength, they battle in Apex Build and Ultimate Mode, respectively.

====Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti====
{{main|Loyal Three}}
The Loyal Three—{{p|Okidogi}}, {{p|Munkidori}}, and {{p|Fezandipiti}}—are a trio of Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in [[Kitakami]]. They were first introduced in [[The Teal Mask]] [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero|DLC]] for {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.

In [[Kitakami]], they were believed to have protected Kitakami from {{p|Ogerpon}}, whose appearance frightened the villagers, causing them to be worshiped as heroes. In truth, the Loyal Three traveled to Kitakami after hearing of Ogerpon and its partner's masks, snuck into the cave Ogerpon settled in, and stole the [[Wellspring Mask|Wellspring]], [[Hearthflame Mask|Hearthflame]], and [[Cornerstone Mask]]s, leaving only the [[Teal Mask]] behind. Upon returning to its cave, an enraged Ogerpon donned the mask and went out to the village, cudgel in hand, to search for its friend. Upon meeting the Loyal Three, gloating over their stolen masks, Ogerpon attacked and defeated them, before leaving. The villagers, misunderstanding the situation, believed that the Loyal Three were protecting the village, creating a shrine and festival to celebrate their perceived heroism.

====Ogerpon====
{{p|Ogerpon}} is a Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in [[Kitakami]]. It was introduced in [[The Teal Mask]] [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero|DLC]] for {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.

It has four forms: [[Teal Mask]], [[Wellspring Mask]], [[Hearthflame Mask]], and [[Cornerstone Mask]]—each form possessing a unique {{Tera}}stallized state.

According to legend in The Teal Mask, it is said to have terrorized the land of Kitakami before being stopped by the [[Loyal Three]]: {{p|Okidogi}}, {{p|Munkidori}} and {{p|Fezandipiti}}. However, in reality, it defeated the trio for stealing three of its masks and hurting its human companion, but the villagers watching it assumed it had come to attack the village, seeing it as a terrible ogre. Only the mask maker who made Ogerpon's masks knew the true story, with this story being passed down to his descendants.

====Terapagos====
{{p|Terapagos}} is a Legendary Pokémon {{pkmn|discovery|first discovered}} in [[Paldea]]. It was introduced in [[The Indigo Disk]] [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero|DLC]] for {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.

Terapagos has three {{fd|Terapagos|forms}}: Normal Form, Terastal Form, and Stellar Form.

It is the origin of the [[Terastal phenomenon]] and was seen as only fiction by many in the Scarlet Book{{sup/9|S}}/Violet Book{{sup/9|V}}, the only ones knowing about its existence being [[Heath]] and [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}}. Around 2,000,000 years ago, Terapagos lived on the surface of [[Paldea]] during ancient times, until seismic shifts caused it to fall underground. There, it remained asleep for many years as the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] formed, along with [[Area Zero]] and the [[Area Zero Underdepths]].

==In the core series games==
[[File:USUM Ultra Necrozma and Legendary Pokemon.jpg|thumb|250px|Various Legendary Pokémon battling, by [[Kazuma Koda]]]]
Legendary Pokémon are usually encountered as [[List of wild Pokémon from in-game events|interactable]] or [[roaming Pokémon]]. Starting in {{v2|Platinum}}, Legendary Pokémon will reappear when the player defeats the {{pkmn|Champion}}, if the Pokémon fainted earlier.

Legendary Pokémon are most commonly [[gender unknown]], although many are not. In the [[core series]] games, no Legendary Pokémon can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] or hatch from an {{pkmn|Egg}}. Legendary Pokémon usually cannot [[Evolution|evolve]], although {{p|Type: Null}}, {{p|Cosmog}}, {{p|Cosmoem}}, and {{p|Kubfu}} all can. Many Legendary Pokémon can change [[form]]s. Legendary Pokémon are often part of a [[Groups of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|group of Legendary Pokémon]], most commonly a Legendary duo or trio.

Legendary Pokémon typically appear near the end of a [[regional Pokédex]], with [[Mythical Pokémon]] immediately after them.

===Statistical average===
High [[base stats]] are shared by most Legendary Pokémon, and they generally have a base stat total of at least 570. These averages consider alternate [[form]]s as separate Pokémon.
{{BaseStatNoCat
|type=Pokemon
|HP=97.10
|Attack=112.73
|Defense=100.85
|SpAtk=115.76
|SpDef=105.46
|Speed=94.69
|Total=626.59
}}

===Multiple Legendary Pokémon===
{{main|Population of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon}}
Most Legendary Pokémon can be obtained only once per save file; in order to obtain multiple, a player would need to [[trade]] Pokémon between games or [[Event Pokémon|obtain one through an event]]. However, in some cases, there are multiple Legendary Pokémon of the same species either found or mentioned in-game, even though they may not be available to the player.

==In the spin-off games==
{{Incomplete|section|Missing more general information on other Spin-off games such as ''Masters EX'' and ''Café ReMix''.}}
===Pokémon Trading Card Game series===
{{main|Legendary Cards}}
In [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and [[Pokémon Trading Card Game 2: The Invasion of Team GR!]], there are four [[Legendary Cards]], which are central to the plot: {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Articuno|P03}}, {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Zapdos|P10}}, {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Moltres|P02}}, and {{TCG ID|Pokémon Card GB|Dragonite|promo}}. The latter is not a Legendary Pokémon, but rather a [[Pseudo-legendary Pokémon|pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon.

Aside from the four Legendary Cards, there are also several Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Mewtwo cards in both games, and a Lugia card in the second game.

===Pokémon Puzzle League===
In [[Pokémon Puzzle League]], the only Legendary Pokémon seen in-game is Mewtwo. It is the final boss of the 1P Stadium in the Very Hard and Super Hard modes.

===Pokémon Team Turbo===
In [[Pokémon Team Turbo]], there are three Legendary Pokémon available in the [[racing]] games: {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}.

===Super Smash Bros. series===
In the [[Super Smash Bros. series]], {{SSB|Mewtwo}} is the only Legendary Pokémon available as a fighter.

==In animation==
===''Pokémon the Series''===
Legendary Pokémon typically make their debut in a {{pkmn|movie}}, rather than first appearing in an {{pkmn|animated series}} episode. Many are worshiped as {{wp|deity|gods}} by particular groups of people. They are often only seen by special {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, usually [[Ash Ketchum]], and by people who have a special connection to them. Ill-intentioned people often seek to possess them, due to their power and rarity. Some Legendary Pokémon exhibit stubborn behavior and a rudely distrust of humans, like {{p|Raikou}}.

Trainers owning Legendary and Mythical Pokémon, or even battling with non-owned Pokémon, are not unheard of. [[Noland]] has befriended and fought official {{pkmn|battle}}s with an {{TP|Noland|Articuno}}. Likewise, {{an|Brandon}} owned the three {{TP|Brandon|legendary giants}} in [[Poké Balls]] and trained them. {{si|Tobias}} participated in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] with the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Latios}}. Another Trainer entered the same tournament with a {{p|Heatran}}. A [[Nurse Joy]] who visited the [[Pewter Gym]] under assignment of the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency|PIA]] kept a {{p|Latias}} in a Poké Ball. {{an|Gladion}} stole a {{p|Type: Null}}, which he managed to evolve into a {{TP|Gladion|Silvally}}. Ash raised a {{p|Cosmog}} nicknamed {{AP|Nebby|Solgaleo}} all the way to {{p|Solgaleo}}; although he never caught it in a Poké Ball, Solgaleo is often seen amongst Ash's Pokémon in official media. [[Goh]] has also succeeded in catching several Legendary Pokémon, including {{TP|Goh|Eternatus}}, a {{TP|Goh|Suicune}}, and a {{p|Regieleki}}. [[Project Mew]] members [[Quillon]] and [[Danika]] both own an {{p|Urshifu}} each, and the former has also caught the three original legendary giants for research purposes. {{Gary}} caught a {{p|Regidrago}} as a part of a Project Mew mission, while [[Horace]] was later revealed to have caught a {{p|Virizion}} during his own mission.

There are some cases in which Legendary Pokémon are implied to breed in the wild, as seen with {{p|Lugia}} in {{aniseries|GS}}, and {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} at the end of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]''.

===''Pokémon Horizons: The Series''===
100 years prior to the events of {{aniseries|HZ}}, the Ancient Adventurer [[Lucius]] used to travel with a [[Black Rayquaza]] and {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Moltres}}, who made up two members of the [[Six Heroes]]. During his journey, Lucius met [[Rystal]], who owned a {{p|Terapagos}} nicknamed [[Pagogo]], and [[Gibeon]], who traveled the world alongside a [[White Zygarde]]. Together, the three of them formed a group called [[Explorers]] and set out to find [[Laqua]], which they succeeded in doing.

After the events that transpired in Laqua, the Six Heroes got scattered around the {{pkmn|world}} and Pagogo reverted into a dormant state, passing down through generations of Rystal's descendants. It eventually ended up in [[Liko]]'s hands, who was a key part in allowing it to restore its active form. Liko and [[Roy]]'s journey also led them to reunite the Six Heroes. Roy himself would later succeed in catching Lucius's Black Rayquaza as his own.

==Trivia==
*150 is the most common stat number among Legendary Pokémon.
*There have been Legendary Pokémon of every type except {{t|Bug}} (excluding {{p|Silvally}} holding a [[Bug Memory]]).
*Every Special and Mythical Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Alola Pokédex]] is marked by a special golden background in its [[Pokédex]] page instead of a regular blue one; other Legendary Pokémon and Ultra Beasts are marked by a special green one.
*{{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Kubfu}} and {{p|Urshifu}} are the only Legendary Pokémon that can be either gender.
** Heatran has an equal chance of being either gender, while Kubfu and Urshifu both have a 7:1 chance of being male.
** While {{p|Terapagos}} is also coded to have an equal chance of being either gender, the Terapagos caught in [[The Indigo Disk]] (currently the only one available ingame) will always be male.
*In an interview promoting the launch of {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[Junichi Masuda]] stated that Legendary Pokémon are the most difficult to design names for because Game Freak strives to make sure that the names of Legendary Pokémon are universal across the different translations, so extra work must be put into their names to make sure that they work universally in all languages.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20101228065540/http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/interview/irbj/sp/index5.html 女子大生が訊く『ポケットモンスターブラック・ホワイト』] (archive)</ref> This is consistent with the relatively small number of Legendary Pokémon that have had their names changed significantly outside of Japan (currently 21: the [[legendary birds]], the [[lake guardians]], the [[forces of nature]], {{p|Type: Null}}, {{p|Silvally}}, the [[guardian deities]], {{p|Eternatus}}, {{p|Kubfu}}, {{p|Urshifu}}, {{p|Glastrier}}, {{p|Spectrier}}, {{p|Calyrex}}, and—in {{pmin|Chinese}} only—the [[Mew duo]]).
* Each member of the [[Legendary beasts]] and the [[Tao trio]] has its own remix of each trio's designated battle theme:
**In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Suicune's theme uses bells, Entei's theme uses an electric guitar, and Raikou's theme is synthesized.
**Reshiram's theme employs a burning fire effect, Zekrom's theme employs a crackling thunder effect, and normal Kyurem's theme features an extra slapped bass part playing in the background.
*The [[Generation I]] games and their later remakes are the only [[core series]] games where the main plot does not involve any Legendary Pokémon.
*Prior to [[Generation VI]], the core series games which serve as region debuts did not have any Legendary Pokémon from previous generations available without trades, transfers, or events.
**From [[Generation III]] onwards, all upper versions, sequels, and remakes in the core series have Legendary Pokémon from multiple generations available without trades, transfers, or events.
*The legendary birds are the Legendary Pokémon that have been available in the wild in the greatest number of core series games, each being able to be caught in twenty core series games ([[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue]], {{v2|Yellow}}, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, LeafGreen]], {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, SoulSilver]], [[Pokémon X and Y|X, Y]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon]], {{LGPE|Let's Go, Pikachu!, Let's Go, Eevee!}}, [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Sword, Shield]], [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Shining Pearl,]] [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Scarlet, and Violet]]).
*Every Legendary Pokémon has the [[List of Pokémon by experience type|Slow leveling rate]].
*In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]], the [[Adventure Log]] lists recruiting Unown as an accomplishment. The Adventure Log otherwise only lists Mythical and Legendary Pokémon recruits, with the exception of {{p|Rotom}}.
*Rotom happens to be the only non-Legendary Pokémon to have the battle music of a Legendary Pokémon during at least one of its encounters, this encounter being in the [[Old Chateau]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl}}, {{v2|Platinum}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl}}.
** In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky, Rotom has only one exclusive item that is found behind a locked door in a specific dungeon. It and {{p|Spiritomb}} are the only Pokémon that are neither Legendary nor Mythical that do this.
*So far, there is at least one Legendary Pokémon directly or indirectly related to each "battle gimmick" introduced in their respective regions:
**The [[Aura trio]] (specifically Xerneas and Yveltal) are theorized to be indirectly responsible for creating [[Mega Evolution]] in the [[Kalos]] region, while {{p|Rayquaza}} is believed to be responsible for Mega Evolution occurring in the [[Hoenn]] region.
** The [[Light trio]] and [[Guardian deities]] are directly related to [[Z-Move]]s.
**Eternatus is directly responsible for [[Dynamax]] and [[Gigantamax]].
**Terapagos is directly responsible for the [[Terastal phenomenon]].

===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|GS}}====
[[James]] disguised himself as {{an|Professor Oak}} in ''[[EP245|Will the Real Oak Please Stand Up?]]'', along with [[Jessie]] disguising herself as [[DJ Mary]]. He was successful in imitating Professor Oak for a time, due to help from {{MTR}} as well as sheer luck. However, after many tests, including silhouette identification and writing poems, he was discovered.

===={{aniseries|DP}}====
James used the same disguise again in ''[[DP139|A Faux Oak Finish!]]'', where he took Professor Oak's place in a convention in order to help the [[Team Rocket trio]] steal Pokémon from the people attending the convention. However, the real Professor Oak soon showed up and was eventually proven to be the genuine article when he was able to determine the cause behind an audience member's {{p|Tyranitar}}'s odd behavior and fix it by removing a thorn stuck under its foot.

After witnessing the fake professor using {{t|Psychic}} abilities, Red saw through the ruse and exposed its true identity by draining its energy with [[Saur]]'s {{m|Leech Seed}}.

'''Gloom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クサイハナ''' ''Kusaihana'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Oddish}} at [[level]] 21 and evolves into either {{p|Vileplume}} when exposed to a [[Leaf Stone]] or {{p|Bellossom}} when exposed to a [[Sun Stone]].

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

==Biology==
[[File:Gloom eyes.png|thumb|left|250px|Gloom's eyes as seen in the anime]]
Gloom is a blue, bipedal ''{{wp|Rafflesia}}''-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with rudimentary hands and feet. On its head is a flower with spherical petals surrounded by four reddish-brown leaves. The petals are a dark reddish-brown and have white spots. A female displays a single large spot on each petal, while a male will have many smaller spots. Gloom's eyes are wide and often appear closed and its lips are thin and purple.

Gloom trickles sticky nectar from its mouth with the appearance and consistency of drool. This can be used as a fertilizer for plants. Both this nectar and the flower on Gloom's head release a foul odor strong enough to induce fainting in humans over a mile (1.6 kilometers) away. However, it can also attract prey, and even a very small number of humans find it pleasing. This odor is a key ingredient for some perfume production. When it is in danger, the odor worsens, but it will not emit its odor if it feels safe. Gloom lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy plains}}. In [[Generation I]], {{m|Petal Dance}} was its [[signature move]].
{{-}}

===Evolution===
Gloom evolves from {{p|Oddish}} and evolves into either {{p|Vileplume}} or {{p|Bellossom}}.

In {{g|GO}}, Gloom can be obtained by completing 1/6 of the [[Special Research]], ''A Seven-Colored Shadow''.

===Evolution data===
Gloom [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Oddish}} at [[level]] 21 and evolves into either {{p|Vileplume}} when exposed to a [[Leaf Stone]] or {{p|Bellossom}} when exposed to a [[Sun Stone]]. Gloom cannot evolve into Bellossom in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} before the player obtains the [[National Pokédex]], as its evolution will be interrupted. Gloom also cannot evolve into Bellossom in {{LGPE}}, as Bellossom is not present in those games.

==Trivia==
* Gloom is the only dual-type Pokémon that can evolve into {{p|Bellossom|a single-type Pokémon}}.
* In the {{pkmn|anime}}, [[James]]'s description of Gloom's stench is confused in some sources as a description of his {{TP|James|Koffing}}.
* Although Gloom has the {{a|Chlorophyll}} Ability, it is actually based on a genus of plants (''{{wp|Rafflesia}}'') that do not contain {{wp|chlorophyll}}.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Gloom and Vileplume}}
Gloom seems to be based on a {{wp|mandrake}}, plants from the ''{{wp|Mandragora}}'' genus whose roots sometimes resemble human figures, and the {{wp|Bud|budding}} stage of ''{{wp|Rafflesia}}'', a genus of parasitic plants known for their large, foul smelling flowers. Its brown leaves may also allude to its parasitic origins, as if the flower is drawing nutrients away from Oddish's formerly green leaves and causing them to wilt. Female Gloom resemble ''{{wp|Rafflesia hasseltii}}'' due to the larger spots on their petals.

Its tendency to emit a foul odor when it feels threatened is similar to a {{wp|skunk}}. The fact that its pungent pollen can be made into a fragrant {{wp|perfume}} may be a reference to {{wp|musk}}, an aromatic substance secreted from the glands of various animals that is a common perfume ingredient but smells unpleasant in high concentrations.

====Name origin====
Gloom may be derived from ''gloom'' (a state of depression), ''glue'' (due to the sticky substance), and ''{{wp|Flower|bloom}}''. It may also involve ''{{wp|glume}}'' (a leaf-like structure).

Kusaihana may be derived from 臭い花 ''kusai hana'' (stinking flower).

Grounded

2022-10-20T11:50:19Z

Flicky: /* Grounded Pokémon */

{{unknown name}}
The term '''grounded''' is used to describe a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that can be affected by damaging {{type|Ground}} [[move]]s and several other associated effects.

==Ungrounded Pokémon==
Several characteristics may make a Pokémon ungrounded.

A Pokémon is ungrounded if any of the following apply (and there is no effect that makes it grounded).
* It has the {{t|Flying}} type.
* It has the [[Ability]] {{a|Levitate}}.
* It is holding an [[Air Balloon]].
* It is under the effect of {{m|Magnet Rise}} or {{m|Telekinesis}}.

Some of these characteristics can be negated by certain moves or Abilities, such as {{m|Gastro Acid}} or {{a|Klutz}}. Additionally, during the execution of a {{cat|Moves that ignore Abilities|move that ignores Abilities}} or an {{cat|Abilities that ignore other Abilities|Ability that ignores other Abilities}}, Levitate is ignored, so Pokémon that are only ungrounded due to it are treated as if they were grounded.

Pokémon that are in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move (including the target of {{m|Sky Drop}}) are also unaffected by effects that only work against grounded Pokémon. However, this status does not make them immune to Ground-type moves per se—they can still be affected by Ground-type moves if those moves successfully hit them (via the effects of {{a|No Guard}}, {{m|Lock-On}}, or {{m|Mind Reader}}), and a Pokémon using {{m|Dig}} can still be hit by {{m|Earthquake}}, {{m|Magnitude}} and {{m|Fissure}}. Additionally, a Pokémon in a semi-invulnerable turn of a move hit by {{m|Smack Down}} or {{m|Thousand Arrows}} will not gain the smacked down status unless it is also ungrounded (but Pokémon in the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Bounce}} will still be knocked out of the move).

==Grounded Pokémon==
By default, grounded Pokémon are simply those that are not ungrounded. However, there are also several effects that will negate a Pokémon's ungrounded status, making it grounded.

A Pokémon will be grounded if any of the following apply.
* It is holding an [[Iron Ball]].
* It is under the effect of {{m|Ingrain}} ([[Generation IV]] onward) or {{m|Smack Down}}/{{m|Thousand Arrows}}.
* {{m|Gravity}} is in effect.

The move {{m|Roost}} removes the user's {{t|Flying}} type for one turn; while it does not directly make the user grounded, if the user is only ungrounded due to being Flying type, it will remain grounded until it regains its Flying type at the end of that turn.

[[Inverse Battle]]s and the [[Ring Target]] can make {{type|Flying}} Pokémon able to be affected by damaging Ground-type moves, but they do not cause the Pokémon to become grounded; all other relevant effects still consider the Pokémon to be ungrounded.

==Effects of grounded status==
Pokémon that are ungrounded are immune to all damaging {{type|Ground}} moves, except {{m|Thousand Arrows}}.

Ungrounded Pokémon are also immune to:
* the [[List of moves that cause entry hazards|entry hazards]] {{m|Spikes}}, {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, and {{m|Sticky Web}}.
* the move {{m|Rototiller}}.
* the effects of [[terrain]].
* the [[Ability]] {{a|Arena Trap}}.

If a grounded {{type|Poison}} Pokémon is sent out while {{m|Toxic Spikes}} are on its side of the field, Toxic Spikes will be removed.

'''Quaxly''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クワッス''' ''Kuwassu'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

Along with {{p|Sprigatito}} and {{p|Fuecoco}}, Quaxly is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].

Along with Sprigatito and Fuecoco, it was the first Generation IX Pokémon to be revealed to the public on February 27, 2022, through a [[Pokémon Presents]] video presentation.

==Biology==
According to the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet website, Quaxly is the earnest and tidy Duckling Pokémon.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Quaxly appears to be based on a young {{wp|duck}} or {{wp|swan}}. Its hair patch resembles a {{wp|beret}} or a {{wp|sailor cap}}. Its teal feet and hair may be inspired by the {{wp|blue-footed booby}} (a species of water bird known for their bright blue feet), or a pun on the {{wp|Eurasian teal|teal}} (a type of duck); the latter is supported by the fact that Quaxly's [[Pokémon category|category]] in Japanese, こがもポケモン ''Kogamo Pokémon'', can both translate to "Duckling Pokémon" or "Teal Pokémon".

====Name origin====
Quaxly may be derived from ''quack''.

'''Quaxly''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クワッス''' ''Kuwassu'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

Along with {{p|Sprigatito}} and {{p|Fuecoco}}, Quaxly is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].

Along with Sprigatito and Fuecoco, it was the first Generation IX Pokémon to be revealed to the public on February 27, 2022, through a [[Pokémon Presents]] video presentation.

==Biology==
According to the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet website, Quaxly is the earnest and tidy Duckling Pokémon.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Quaxly appears to be based on a young {{wp|duck}} or {{wp|swan}}. Its hair patch resembles a {{wp|beret}} or a {{wp|sailor cap}}. Its teal feet and hair may be inspired by the {{wp|blue-footed booby}} (a species of water bird known for their bright blue feet), or a pun on the {{wp|Eurasian teal|teal}} (a type of duck); the latter is supported by the fact that Quaxly's [[Pokémon category|category]] in Japanese, こがもポケモン ''Kogamo Pokémon'', can both translate to "Duckling Pokémon" or "Teal Pokémon".

====Name origin====
Quaxly may be derived from ''quack''.

[[File:DragapultFusionStrike130.jpg|thumb|200px|right|An example of a Fusion Strike Pokémon]]
'''Fusion Strike''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|FUSION|フュージョン}}''' ''Fusion Strike'') is a category of cards in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. They were introduced in the {{TCG|Fusion Strike}} expansion and mix the strengths of the {{TCG|Single Strike}} and {{TCG|Rapid Strike}} styles, strengthening their own Pokémon while weakening the opponent's. Fusion Strike cards are distinguished by a pink '''''Fusion Strike''''' label superimposed on the card art below the {{stat|HP}} and {{TCG|type}}. Certain {{TCG|attack}}s, {{TCG|Ability|Abilities}}, {{TCG|Trainer card}}s, and {{TCG|Special Energy card}}s interact specifically with Fusion Strike cards.

I just caught one today! I named it Aflac. XD Anyway, the Route 48 grass patch I found Aflac in is ''directly'' south of the Safari Zone. I've been there all day catching Pokémon and I only caught one Farfetch'd.
So can someone add this information to the article? --[[User:Link of Hyrule|hurr durr]] 01:58, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

== Origin ==
According to George Hutcheon's editorial, there is no legends of ducks carrying leeks, but instead a saying, so where will that leave us? May not seem much, but I don't see a point in stating that there are legends when they don't seem to exist. [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 21:35, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

:Yeah, and I think George's findings are trivia worthy. I mean, I was completely convinced that this "duck carrying leek" thing was some famous Japanese legend. [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] 23:08, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

:New comments to the bottom of the page please. No, it cannot be added, simply becasue that is the same for most Pokémon. The only sprite trivia permissible is for changes in the design of the Pokémon between generations. Also, FYI, the generation numbers (i.e. Roman numerals) use capital I, not a pipe.

==Discrepancy in Pokedex entries==
In the article's Pokedex entry for Red and Blue, it says that Farfetch'd carries a "spring" of green onion. If I'm not mistaken (and I don't think I am because I have the actual Pokedex entry from the game open in front of me), it's actually supposed to say "sprig" (as in a shoot of a plant). Would someone please change this so it is correct? [[User:Dragon Master Lance|Dragon Master Lance]] 16:40, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
:Just checked on my brother's old Red version. You're right, it says sprig. Thanks for pointing that out. [[Typhlosion|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon|★]] [[User_talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]] 16:48, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

== Repeated statement ==
I notice that in the Trivia section, it states TWICE that Farfetch'd is the only Pokémon with an apostrophe in its name. Should the last one be taken out? (Note: I ask this specifically because we are not supposed to add trivia. Does erasing it count as well?) [[User:EvilKirikizan|EvilKirikizan]] 13:25, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

== Widespread misconception ==
I noticed that this article doesn't address a common misconception surrounding this Pokémon during the times of generation I. I distinctly remember that this Pokémon was believed to belong to Doduo's evolution family, and some related media in Europe reinforced this misconception (e.g. a sticker album placed Farfetch'd > Doduo > Dodrio in the same rectangle, implying a three-stage evolution family. In the United States, Tomy figures representing the three characters were packaged together somewhat implying the same thing (though some three-figure sets did not group an evolution family (e.g. Tauros, Porygon & Kangaskhan and Oddish, Ninetales & ?Pidgeotto?). Should this error be included as part of the trivia section? Considering that both Farfetch'd and Doduo (and to a lesser extent Dodrio) were easily obtainable in the wild, there was little need to (try to) evolve Farfetch'd to obtain its evolution, so the mistake wasn't immediately cleared up. [[User:Taran|Taran]] ([[User talk:Taran|talk]]) 17:33, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
:If you could find a picture of the sticker album showing the error it'd be worth mentioning (granted that there isn't already a page for the sticker album). Without proof of the error though, no, a few fans thinking something's true that isn't, isn't notable. [[User:Glik|Glik]] ([[User talk:Glik|talk]]) 17:50, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
::I thought this was interesting, so I did a little hunt. The only image I could find was [http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/raikourai/30331428/137405/137405_320.jpg this image] with a Google Image search for "Farfetch'd Doduo Dodrio sticker". The [http://pkmncollectors.livejournal.com/10609767.html website that has the picture] also has an image of the album. A Google Image search for "Farfetch'd evolves into Doduo" leads to [http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m118/R-New_1993/BILD0417.jpg a different image on a separate mistake]. (However, [http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?473542-Why-Can-t-People-Get-It-Right-Annoying-Things-and-Pokémon&s=0186f3219fb9af8936f0cbd955a54671&p=11771309#post11771309 that links to the Serebii forums.]) Anyways, I hope this helps somehow. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 06:22, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

== Name Origin ==

Could the "fetch'd" in Farfetch'd also be related to how it's carrying a stick? Like one uses to play "fetch" with one's dog? If not too... farfetched [ugh, wanted to find other word], I think it would be worth mentioning in the name origin area. [[User:Masternachos|Masternachos]] ([[User talk:Masternachos|talk]]) 00:51, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

:I see what you're saying. However, since it's actually holding an onion (see its Japanese name origin), this may not be the case. If it is the case, the apostrophe break that occurs right after ''fetch'' perhaps places emphasis on the ''fetch'' pun. Does anyone else have any thoughts regarding this possible name origin? —[[User:The Sackinator|The Sackinator]] ([[User talk:The Sackinator|talk]]) 01:44, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
::While technically an onion/leek, Farfetch'd's held item ''is'' translated as "stick." [[User:Masternachos|Masternachos]] ([[User talk:Masternachos|talk]]) 17:15, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
:::The Stick item wasn't introduced until a full generation after Farfetch'd got an English name, so that's not a valid argument. The Stick item could not possibly have influenced the naming of Farfetch'd. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 18:12, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
::::Ah. Right. [[User:Masternachos|Masternachos]] ([[User talk:Masternachos|talk]]) 22:12, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
:::: Or maybe it's the other way around? What if the (localized?) understanding of Farfetch'd's leek onion being a stick resulted in the item being called Stick? What if the fact that it looks like a stick, combined with the fact that Farfetch'd always always carries it (perhaps like how a dog keeps fetching a stick no matter where it goes) does provide a resemblance. Maybe it's far fetched (pun intended), but maybe not. What if the name origin said, "The name may also be a reference to {{wp|Fetch}}, due to the onion leek held by Farfetch'd commonly being mistaken for a stick." {{unsigned|The Sackinator}}
:::::... I don't see how that's any different from what I just said was logically invalid. The localizers would've decided on Farfetch'd's name long before deciding on the Stick's name, so you could theoretically use the "fetch" idea (if it's valid, which I don't believe it is) as evidence for the name origin of the Stick, but not vice versa. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:55, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::: Yes, obviously the item can't be the source of Farfetch'd's name. What I meant was, what if the fact that Farfetch'd's onion looks like a stick could have independently resulted both in 1) the name of the item being Stick and 2) a potential ''Fetch'' pun in Farfetch'd's name. The Stick item obviously didn't influence the name, but what did influence the Stick's name (i.e., the onion's appearance being like a stick) could have also influenced Farfetch'd's name. —[[User:The Sackinator|The Sackinator]] ([[User talk:The Sackinator|talk]]) 02:37, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

[[File:Sinnoh Pokédex Icon VIII.png|right]]{{shortcut|2|Sdex|Pdex}}
{{Regionaldex|Sinnoh}}
[[File:DP Pokédex.png|thumb|160px|right|[[Sinnoh]] region's Pokédex]]

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} as well as their remakes {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} it has 151 Pokémon, while in {{game|Platinum}} it has 210 Pokémon. No Pokémon have different Pokédex numbers between these different versions: Platinum appended 59 additional Pokémon to the end of the Diamond and Pearl Pokédex, and Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl have the same Pokédex as Diamond and Pearl, removing the Platinum expansion.

==Changes between versions==
==={{game|Platinum}}===
In Pokémon Platinum, the Pokédex was expanded to have 210 entries, with the new additions added to the end of the Pokédex.

==={{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}===
In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the Sinnoh Pokédex is the same as in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, removing the Pokémon Platinum expansion.

In addition, with the introduction of the {{type|Fairy}} in [[Generation VI]], {{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Marill}}, amd {{p|Azumarill}} had their types changed from pure {{type|Normal}} (Cleffa, Clefairy, Clefable, and Azurill), pure {{type|Water}} (Marill and Azumarill) and pure {{type|Psychic}} (Mime Jr. and Mr. Mime) to pure Fairy, Normal/Fairy, Water/Fairy, and Psychic/Fairy respectively. These Pokémon have these new types in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

==Absent Generation IV Pokémon==
===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl===
In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, 26 Pokémon introduced in [[Generation IV]] are absent in the Sinnoh Pokédex:

* {{p|Rotom}}
* Some [[List of cross-generational evolution families|cross-generational evolutions]]: {{p|Gliscor}}, {{p|Probopass}}, {{p|Gallade}}, {{p|Lickilicky}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, {{p|Glaceon}}, {{p|Togekiss}}, {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Tangrowth}}, {{p|Yanmega}}, {{p|Rhyperior}}, {{p|Dusknoir}}, {{p|Porygon-Z}}, {{p|Electivire}}, {{p|Magmortar}}, {{p|Mamoswine}}, and {{p|Froslass}}
* Some [[Legendary Pokémon]]: {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Giratina}}, and {{p|Cresselia}}
* Some [[Mythical Pokémon]]: {{p|Phione}} (whose status as Mythical is disputed), {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Arceus}}.

Most of the cross-generational evolutions introduced in this generation are among the excluded Pokémon. However, some are present: {{p|Ambipom}}, {{p|Honchkrow}}, {{p|Mismagius}}, {{p|Weavile}}, and {{p|Roserade}}. All the [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in this generation ({{p|Budew}}, {{p|Chingling}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Munchlax}}, and {{p|Mantyke}}) are present in the Sinnoh Pokédex as well.

===Pokémon Platinum===
In Pokémon Platinum, the expanded Sinnoh Pokédex included {{p|Rotom}}, {{p|Giratina}}, and all the cross-generational evolutions previously excluded, together with their full evolutionary families (as well as eight other earlier Pokémon: {{p|Houndour}}, {{p|Houndoom}}, {{p|Swablu}}, {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Tropius}}, {{p|Scyther}}, {{p|Scizor}}, and {{p|Absol}}).

However, 7 Generation IV Pokémon are still excluded from the Sinnoh Pokédex in Pokémon Platinum: {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Arceus}}.

==Trivia==
* This is the first regional Pokédex listing to be enlarged.
* This is the only regional Pokédex listing not to include all the new Pokémon introduced in its corresponding generation.
* Excluding the Platinum expansion, this was the only Pokédex listing to have the same amount of Pokémon as another: the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]].
* According to the {{Trading Card Game}}, the model of Pokédex in Sinnoh is the {{TCG ID|Diamond & Pearl|Pokédex HANDY910is|111}}.
* The Sinnoh Pokédex was the first regional Pokédex to include ordinary Pokémon (non-Legendary, non-pseudo-legendary, and non-Mythical) after [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
** With the Platinum expansion, it became the first regional Pokédex to include such Pokémon after [[Legendary Pokémon]] and [[Mythical Pokémon]].
* This is the only regional Pokédex to not include any Pokémon compatible with the [[Sun Stone]] or the [[Leaf Stone]], although {{p|Eevee}} (who is featured in the Platinum expansion) would later become compatible with the Leaf Stone in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
** Excluding the Platinum expansion, this is also the only regional Pokédex to not include any Pokémon compatible with the [[Fire Stone]] or the [[Water Stone]].
* This is the first Pokédex not to feature the {{p|Koffing}}, {{p|Oddish}}, or {{p|Vulpix}} evolutionary families.

Talk:Weather

2021-11-28T10:26:20Z

Flicky: /* Overworld weather in BDSP */ new section

== Mystery Dungeon ==
Might there be some mention of the various weather effects in the Mystery Dungeon games? --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 18:33, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
:It's a good idea, but it seems that people are too lazy to work on it... --[[User:ht14|ht14]] 10:32, 22 April 2008 (GMT)
::Over 2 years later, I decided to finally just do it myself. Hooray. --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 06:25, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

== Abilities??? ==

Why is this categorized in Abilities????
:No clue. --'''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 09:04, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

== Pictures? ==

Where are the pictures of the desert and fog weather conditions from? I've never seen them and I think it would be better if they were from locations we can actually visit [[User:Shiny Lanturn|Shiny Lanturn]] 13:14, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
:Uhhh. Most of our picutres are from the 3rd Generation. Do you encounter fog in the 3rd Generation? Phail, man. '''[[User:Optimus35|It's the <sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''13:15 3 Jun 2008'''''
::The desert was just a quick map I made because I didn't want to have to run across all of Hoenn to get a screenshot. The fog's at Sendoff Spring. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 02:27, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
:::And Victory Road. And east of Something Town. '''[[User:Optimus35|It's the <sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''02:30 4 Jun 2008'''''

::::You're probably looking for [[Celestic City]] there. There's also fog in one area of [[Mt. Coronet]]. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 02:32, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
::::I actually mean, that's where the screenshot was taken. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:15, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

== Fog ==

Fog was first introduced in PMD I. Interesting? It halved the power of a specific type of move (I think the {{type|Electric}}). '''[[User:Optimus35|It's the <sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''02:43 4 Jun 2008'''''

== Solarbeam ==

I just found that in Pokemon Pearl,Solarbeam can fire in the second round as it is rain,so I better removed that part.Indeed,did solarbeam need two turn charge up in rain???

(since English is not my mother language...there may be have grammer mistake) --[[User:chungkingpun|chungkingpunノ]]15:20, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

== Moonlight in Intense Sun ==

The moonlight move page says that using it in sunlight will recover full HP, and this page says that it recovers two-thirds. Which is it? Flaaffy 05:44, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
:Always been full for me... Got an Umbreon? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:14, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

== Sandstorm ==

Is Thunder's accuracy really affected by Sandstorm? -[[User:Jayc|Jayc]] 05:47, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
:Not according to any site I can find, including {{m|Thunder|us}}.... anyone else? — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 06:44, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
::I didn't think so. All I know for sure is rainy day increases its accuracy by 100%.--[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 06:54, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
:::And sun cuts it to half, Clarky. But you just forgot to write that, right? :p — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 07:05, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
::::Yes. Yes, of course. <.< >.> --[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 07:09, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
:::::And the same goes for Blizzard, then? -[[User:Jayc|Jayc]] 07:14, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
::::::Done some research online... I can't find anything that says the accuracy of any move is affected by a sandstorm. Needs to be tested in-game first though..... — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 08:07, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

== Weather Ball against Rayquaza ==

PBR Weather Ball Test
:Team 1: Giratina and Castform
:Team 2: Rayquaza and Darkrai

:Turn 1: Use Hail: Started hailing in the colleseum. Castform did not change form. No one toook damage.
:Turn 2: Use Weather Ball on Darkrai as test. Appears icy.
:Turn 3: Use Weather Ball on Rayquaza. Appears icy, super effective. Rayquaza dies. Castform transformed to ice form. Darkrai and Giratina took damage.

Weather Conditions page.
:However, it should be noted that when fighting against ''Rayquaza'', Psyduck, and Golduck, due to their ability to negate all weather effects, Castform is incapable of changing forms and ''incapable of having a different typed Weather Ball.''

Question: Glitch in PBR or typo on page? - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Giratina's Embodiment|Giratina's Embodiment]] ([[User talk:Giratina's Embodiment|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Giratina's_Embodiment|contribs]])'' 20:49, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
:Try it in a handheld game. --[[User:CuboneKing|CUBONE]] ([[User talk:CuboneKing|Planet Cubone]] • [[Special:Contributions/CuboneKing|Bone Club]]) [[Cubone (Pokémon)|PWNS]] 20:51, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

::Can't. Lost my Rayquaza in a trade for Deoxys. know any YouTubers that posted a video with similarities?
::Also, that doesn't answer my question, though I will alter it: Glitch or not? - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Giratina's Embodiment|Giratina's Embodiment]] ([[User talk:Giratina's Embodiment|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Giratina's_Embodiment|contribs]])'' 21:02, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
Tried it on Platinum, caused the Weather Glitch. [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 14:36, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

==Diamond Dust==
Is there anywhere tht states diamond dust days? (It's May 1st and i just saw my 1st :D ) [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] 05:31, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
:Also, i beieve a dark (bt not rainy) sky at rt 212 links with diamond dust [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] 05:55, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

::sry i keep goin on and on about this, bt if you save on diamond dust then come back the next day it'll still be there (kinda like the Barry glitch), Trivia? [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] 15:21, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

:::Sorry to bump an old talk, but we need a table of diamond dust days. I saw one before, and it's gone. [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK]] [[Mudkip (Pokémon)|Leiks]] [[Lucario (Pokémon)|Lucario]] [[User talk:SpecialK|and the]] [[User:Missingno. Master/Celebi Glitch|Celebi Glitch]] 10:08, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

::::I know this is Old talk but i saw a video that TamashiiHiroka said that Diamond Dust appears on special Christmas days, in X and Y i think it will appear on Snowbelle City. [[User:Snivy16|Snivy16]] 7:42 PM 12/17/13

== Reworking the Weather Conditions page ==

I was just wondering if I could rework the Weather Conditions page into something more readable by introducing bullets into the page.
This would make it far more readable than the current one. [[User:Graupel|Graupel]] 16:22, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
:Yes, I think that the page would benefit from it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:36, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
:I would also like to rename the page into Conditions. Weather Conditions leaves out the arena conditions.[[User:Graupel|Graupel]] 01:46, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
::No. This page is specifically about the weather ones. What do you mean by arena conditions; do you mean moves like {{m|Gravity}} and {{m|Trick Room}}? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 02:00, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
Yes, that is exactly what I mean. Weather conditions leave out Gravity, Trick Room, etc.[[User:Graupel|Graupel]] 05:19, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
:This page is specifically for the weather ones. I guess you could start "area conditions" in your userspace. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 05:30, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

== Rain ==

It says that in rain, Thunder and Hurricane bypass accuracy check, and Blizzard does so in hail. While in {{m|Blizzard}}'s article it say that it will never miss in hail, it is not the case for the other two, in their articles it says only that rain raises accuracy to 100%, while 100% ≠ —%. Which one is right? [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 17:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
:I tested this in Gen IV, and I'm pretty sure they never miss. I lowered my Pokémon's accuracy to -6, then had it use Blizzard while in hail, and it hit both opponents. I then tried with Thunder, lowering its accuracy to -6 again, and used it in the rain, and I managed to land 6 consequetive hits, with no misses at all. Either I am extremely lucky, or weather makes these moves never miss. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:23, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

== A two things ==

1. I was under the impression that {{m|Fire Blast}} + {{m|Sunny Day}} recived the same beinfets as {{m|Thunder}} + Rain. 
2. Are these effects really only found in DP? [[User:Truthseeker4449|Truth]][[User talk:Truthseeker4449|seeker]][[Special:Contributions/Truthseeker4449|4449]] 15:45, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

== Fact Check! ==
It says in the trivia section that all weather changing abilities were introduced in Gen IV.
WHAT! I believe someone forgot two version mascots (with the abilities Drought and Drizzle) that are native to Hoenn. Snow Warning and Sand Stream were introduced in Generation IV. Therefore, I am editing the trivia section. [[User:Dudey997|Dudey997]] 05:17, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
:It says they were introduced one generation after the weather they caused. Sunny Day/Sunny weather, Rain Dance/Rainy weather and Sandstorm were introduced in Generation II. Drought (Groudon), Drizzle (Kyogre) and Sand Stream (Tyrannitar) were introduced in Generation III. Hail was introduced in Generation III, and Snow Warning was introduced in Generation IV. Thus the trivium was accurate. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 06:10, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
And I thought I had something... [[User:Dudey997|Dudey997]] 05:56, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

==Singular==
Shouldn't this page be non-pluralized as Weather condition or simply Weather? Also, I have a colorful template [[User:Abcboy/sandbox|here]] that could be used for the page. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 02:36, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
:I agree; I think it should be singular. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:51, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

== Weather quotes ==

All of these are from several text dumps, but some might be incorrect:

''reposted below''

I also found this text:
*A deep fog drapes the area... Would you like to use Defog?
*<something> used Defog!
*A deep fog drapes the area... Will a Pokémon’s move lift it?
Is this ever used? --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 19:27, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
:Likely field move quote as all HM are field moves and Defog was one in DPPt. I am more curious about the downpour one, actually. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 20:30, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
::There's a problem with that. The fog is '''everywhere''', not just in one spot like the others, and I've never seen that quote before then. This is the original text from veekun's text dumps:

== Diamond Dust II: Dust Harder ==
Why don't we have a Diamond Dust section anymore? As it was said above, a table of days on which it's available would be great. I've been looking for Diamond Dust on this 'pedia, and there's mentions of it here and there but only one page has dates (and those are for Diamond and Pearl) and they mention it existing in GenV but it's never said where or when (unless it says when on that location's page, which is absolutely useless unless you already know it appears at that location). A simple table on this page is all it takes. Pretty sure there used to be one. [[User:Me, Hurray!|Me, Hurray!]] ([[User talk:Me, Hurray!|talk]]) 01:05, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

:Those "terrain" moves don't look special enough to me to form a good and logical group that's only them plus weather conditions. They seem to me more of a kind with other moves that affect the whole "field" of battle, like {{m|Trick Room}}, {{m|Gravity}}, and {{m|Water Sport}}, than they seem similar to only weather.

:The "trigger" either is time, or it is you. For SOS Battles, in-battle weather is relevant, so having {{a|Drizzle}} or the like will do the job. Or else, you could wait for natural weather to occur in the overworld, which will of course carry over to battles (see the location pages for when there's what weather, or our weather pages, for example [[Sandstorm (weather condition)#On the field]]). (I think there's some research left for exact times in some locations, but if you want hail in Haina Desert, I guess you'll have to take care for it yourself.)

== New Info from Gen VII - We have work to do! ==

As you may know, Sun and Moon's battle menu features an extensive amount of information on the status of the battle, including health, stat modifications, and other ongoing effects, including—you guessed it—weather conditions. The thing is, these games give us '''official names and descriptions''' for every weather condition that is featured in them, and some of the names are quite different from the names we've been using. Here they are:

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Harsh sunlight]]", Sun and Moon call "Sunny":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Sunny
|-
|style="color:white" | The sunny weather condition. It boosts the power of Fire-type moves and lowers the power of Water-type moves.
|}

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Extremely harsh sunlight]]", Sun and Moon call "Harsh Sunlight":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Harsh Sunlight
|-
|style="color:white" | The extremely harsh sunlight weather condition. It boosts the power of Fire-type moves and protects Pokémon from Water-type moves.
|}

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Rain]]", Sun and Moon call "Rain":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Rain
|-
|style="color:white" | The rain weather condition. It boosts the power of Water-type moves and lowers the power of Fire-type moves.
|}

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Heavy rain]]", Sun and Moon call "Heavy Rain":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Heavy Rain
|-
|style="color:white" | The heavy rain weather condition. It boosts the power of Water-type moves and protects Pokémon from Fire-type moves.
|}

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Sandstorm]]", Sun and Moon call "Sandstorm":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Sandstorm
|-
|style="color:white" | The sandstorm weather condition. It damages all Pokémon that are not Rock, Ground, or Steel type every turn. It boosts the Sp. Def of Rock-type Pokémon.
|}

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Hail]]", Sun and Moon call "Hail":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Hail
|-
|style="color:white" | The hail weather condition. It damages all Pokémon that are not Ice type every turn.
|}

What Bulbapedia calls "[[Mysterious air current]]", Sun and Moon call "Strong Winds":

{|style="background:#032c61; border:3px solid #2ca2c6"
|-
|style="color:yellow" width="300px" | Strong Winds
|-
|style="color:white" | The strong winds condition. The power of supereffective moves against Flying-type Pokémon will be weakened.
|}

I believe the current names we have for these conditions have stemmed from how they are described in battle text, rather than official designation. Either way, since these are from the most recent core series games, I'd say it's high time to work on implementing this new information on Bulbapedia. This would include moving and rewriting articles, and possibly editing templates. I wrote this entry not only to dump the info for easier reference, but also to run it past you guys and raise awareness about the necessity of this implementation. Does this work for everyone?

—[[User:WhosHaddady|'''Haddady''']] [[User talk:WhosHaddady|~Straight Outta the Bag~]] 03:50, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
:[[Mysterious air current|Strong winds]] has already been proposed for a move.
:That "harsh sunlight" (like from {{a|Desolate Land}}) is a bit interesting since the description says "The '''extremely harsh sunlight''' condition". Also interestingly, it seems that when "sunny" activates it still says the sunlight turned "harsh"; and when "harsh sunlight" activates, it still says the sunlight turns extremely harsh.
:Perhaps ultimately there may not be any reason to ignore the explicit condition names SM has given us, but these things are at least food for thought. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 07:10, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

== Prerequisites in generation VIII ==

I'm not sure of the best way to do this, but I think it's important that we discuss the prerequisites for certain weather conditions to occur in the wild area and on the Isle of Armor.

For example, we already know that fog will only appear after the player becomes Champion. After some testing, it seems that thunderstorms only appear on the Isle of Armor after completing its storyline. There may be others I'm forgetting.

How should we go about it? It would be a little bit of information overload if we just added a big paragraph below the weather table.

== Overworld weather in BDSP ==

The page currently says:
:When there is weather in the overworld, that weather will appear in every battle and last until it is replaced by another weather
In [[BDSP]] at least, this doesn't seem to be quite how it works - when the replacing weather wears off, the overworld weather comes back. Has this always been the case? If not, when did it change? --[[User:Flicky|Fli]][[User talk:Flicky|cky]][[Special:Contributions/Flicky|1991]] 10:26, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

== Badge Names/Spacing ==

For the record, is it "Boulderbadge" or "Boulder Badge"? Also, I figure listing what Badges do both here and in the [[Gym Leader]] page is redundant. I think it is more appropriate here. uhhh... And, how do you make it so that pages can link to individual badges within this page? Like [[ Badge#Boulder Badge ]] Is that possible? --[[user:greengiant|greengiant]]

Is it REALLY necessary to imply that the Japanese word for "badge" is different from the English word? --Ketsuban

To Ket, I think someone may have gone a bit overboard on our translation thing. ^^; And with respect to the #___Badge, yeah, I'll edit that so it's possible. And I believe the name is Boulderbadge, with no space, although this in turn is probably due to the game's character limit. [[User:Evkl|evkl]] 00:33, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Use the <nowiki> ==== </nowiki> as the header title for all badges. And maybe debold the names of the badges? I'm not sure... And yeah, that header will allow [[Badges#Cascade Badge]] and the like. [[User:Evkl|evkl]] 01:08, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

May I ask why you replaced all the japanese text with question marks? or am I just viewing the page wrong? --[[user:greengiant|greengiant]]

== Hoenn/Shin'ō Badges ==

Does anyone know where the Kanto and Johto badges' images came from, or who made them? I think it would look a lot better if we had something like that for the other two regions... I mean, if anyone has some drawing skill and can draw out the Hoenn badges, then digitally color them like the other ones, that'd be a good substitute for that anime screenshot... Same for the Shin'ō ones, if we get their colors ahead of time... Depends on how fast we get through Shin'ō in the anime, though, I'd suppose.

== Gymbaliar ==

Should we mention somewhere in the anime section that Jessie ran a gym for one D&P episode, and gave out at least one badge to a trainer? Whether or not its considered offical is questionable, and it was not seen, but it should be mentioned that they DID have badges.[[User:Spongemaster0|Spongemaster0]] 14:16, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

The badge in question, I believe, was 3 of James's bottle caps glued together. I'm [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]], and I approve this [[User Talk:Missingno. Master|message.]] 22:52, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

== Multiple Gyms ==

I've been watching Pokémon Chronicles lately, and something in the episode where Misty takes over as Gym Leader (Cerulean Blues, I think) seems kinda relevant. The Inspectors that are busy closing down various Gyms across Kanto are reported on the news to have closed down several already. If eight badges are a requirement for entering the Indigo League, there must be at least eight still open after those closures, right? That would seem to imply that there were (prior to that episode) several extra Gyms.

Also, in the games the "Fighting Dojo" is supposed to have had Gym status, and recently lost it. Bearing in mind that Sabrina's Gym has a pretty formidable reputation, I doubt its "brand new", in which case I'd espect the Fighting Dojo and Sabrina's Gym to have run simultaneously, at least for a bit. I know the Dojo was never mentioned in the Anime, but maybe one of Gary's badges (or the other trainers') could be from there, or other similar Gyms that were closed down?

== Badge name spacing ==

I see someone reccently changed the badge names to give them consistant spacing. But a pretty quick video search on YouTube shows me that Boulderbadge and so on was correct, and is still kept in FR/LG.--[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 09:38, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
:Yes, but it's HEAT BADGE and so on in Emerald, so I think that it was always their intention to have spaces, they just didn't have room in RBYGSC and wanted to keep with tradition in RSFRLG. Emerald they spaced and DP they finally turned off caps lock. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 10:05, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
::Actually, RS did use spaces. And FR/LG came out afterward without the spacing. Maybe it was a character limit thing, I'll look through some official uses of the terms when I can and see if they agree with you. I just thought that was worth noting.--[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 11:00, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
:::All I can really say is that we'll know for sure for Johto/Kanto badges with GSDS. Seeing as FRLG was a remake of RB anyway, though... I think they were just keeping with tradition. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 09:11, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
:Weighing in, I think other forms of canon have always put a space between the words, which gives some weight to standardizing them as always spaced. I mean, granted, we usually set game canon as the one true canon, but... also, btw, RSE and FRLG weren't necessarily translated by the same people in the company, which could account for the difference. I wouldn't be surprised if the people translating FRLG were looking back at the generation I data for reference far more than the data for the other generation III games, except maybe to make sure the new items shared the same names. Badges aren't new, so why would they think to check? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 18:00, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

==Computers versus badges==
Does anyone else find it odd that badges/ribbons themselves serve as authentication rather than a computerized system (then again, if badges were simply for decoration and kept track of by computer, we couldn't have "badge theft" episodes)? It seems strange that there's a computerized system for transferring Pokémon over large distances but not a system for keeping track of trainer acheivements. Perhaps a note should be made of that.--[[User:Yoshi1001|Yoshi1001]] 22:24, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

At one point, just prior to his entry into the Hoenn League Ash goes through the obligatory 'Badge loss' episode and is told that he can still enter due to the records but states that he wouldn't want to without the badges, that losing them would be a major psychological blow. Now whether thats unique to the Hoenn region or not is another matter... [[User:Ricohard|Ricohard]] 03:35, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

== League ==

Once a trainer gets 8 badges, he can participate in their respective leagues. After the League is over, can they enter the same League again the next year with the same badges or do they have to travel around again?--'''''[[User:Jmath|Jmath]] 11:32, 26 October 2007 (UTC)'''''

Since Kanto and Johto both have the same league, wouldn't that mean that these extra badges aren't necesarily only from Kanto, but can be from Johto as well. It was proven by [[Sakura]], who was going to the Indigo League, that one does not need to get all eight from only one region, but they can get any ratio of eight throughout the two regions. So, couldn't these be from Johto as well, even though Johto didn't exist when they were seen? ''[[User:Moldy orange|'''Moldy''']][[User talk:Moldy orange|'''Orange''']]'' 14:45, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
:Sakura didn't specify which competition she was entering.

== Gary's badges ==

In the section "Gary" of the article it states "This would, therefore, provide one gym for each of the (at the time) fifteen types" Where does this figure of fifteen come from? There were sixteen Pokemon types in Generation I; Dark was the only type not to have any Pokemon named after it (easy to find a Pokemon of each type: Rattata, Machop, Pidgey, Koffing, Sandshrew, Geodude, Caterpie, Gastly, Magnemite, Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Pikachu, Alakazam, Jynx and Dratini for example). If the sentence is referring to only single-types then it would be much less than 15 as there certainly weren't any single-typed Dark, Ice or Steel Pokemon (and maybe more) in Generation I. So I think the sentence is inaccurate. [[User:Kidburla|Kidburla]] 23:05, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

== Marsh and Soul and Renaming, oh my! ==
So, Sabrina's badge was originally going to be the Soul Badge, because Psychickers can peer into your soul... and Koga's badge was going to be the Marsh Badge, because Poisonous fumes come from marshes and such. These were accidentally flipped in the final version, and have stuck even in Gen II and the Gen III remakes. Eevee is not Eon, and Abra is not Hocus.

== Dive ==

In the trivia it says that Dive "cannot be used or obtained without trading in Kanto."

== Badges as mind-control ==

I seem to recall at least one instance in the Special manga where Pikachu or another Pokemon was at least subtly influenced by the badges. I believe the gym leaders also described them as having the power to control Pokemon, possibly around the Silph Co. battle arc... Does anyone know of a specific instance of this being stated? [[User:Redstar|Redstar]] 03:04, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
: The way I recall it (Though mind you it's been a while isnce I've read the RBG arc), the badges alone don't control Pokémon in Special. But when put in the Badge Energy Amplifier, that's when it is able to control Pokémon within a specific radius.
:: Yes, that makes more sense. I vaguely recall an instance of Pikachu being manipulated by Red or another person, but it may not have been badge-related or even in the manga. I did find several scans that confirm that badges do in fact manipulate Pokemon to a degree, but whether this is generally or only in conjunction with each other due the BEA is unclear.

"Highest level of
obeying Pokémon: N/A" Instead of N/A, wouldn't it make more sense to use the same level as the previous one? It's not like the privilege of the obeying Pokemon is taken away.. It doesn't say it ''gives'' that level, it just says that it's the highest level of obeying Pokemon.. Consider it? >.> --[[User:JasonTongRulz|♪ Jason Tong ♪]] 21:59, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
:For future reference, in case anyone brings this point up again, this suggestion doesn't work on one major principle: the obedience of the traded pokémon is directly controlled by the badged a player has. Meaning, if I skipped Sabrina (whose badge grants obedience to pokémon up to level 70) leaving me with only obedience at level 50 (Rainbow Badge), then if I went to fight Blaine (whose order is after Sabrina), my traded pokémon would still stop obeying me once it reached level 51 despite having a superior badge from a trainer stronger than Sabrina. Without the Marsh badge, they will still disobey. These are the abilities granted by a gym badge itself, not simply something that happens with a certain amount of gyms defeated.

== Two badges not mentioned ==

There are two known badges not mentioned, though they aren't gym badges they still connect to the Pokemon League in the anime. One badge is the Exam badge that works like all 8 would normally. It was shown in an episode and looks like a red boulder badge with a giant P in the middle. The second badge missing is the one giving to Ash when the Pokemon League ended after his loss to Richie.--[[User:Lycos Ex Mortis|Lycos Ex Mortis]] 05:06, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

In HGSS, you get a special badge after beating the elite four; it fills that circle in your case. There's another one for the Kanto league. How come none of these are mentioned? Due they even have names? I would put it in myself, but I haven't been able to find any info. --[[User:TrainerRoland|TrainerRoland]] 18:47, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

== Gary and other ideas ==

Part of the article I have ideas about improving:
Gary Oak acquired more than the standard eight Kanto League badges, thus leading to confusion as to whether or not there is an infinite number of badges that can be given out in a given region. By The Battle of the Badge, he is shown to have at least ten badges, only 3 of which correspond to known Kanto league badges, suggesting there are at least fifteen gyms in Kanto. This would, therefore, provide one gym for each of the (at the time) fifteen types. Among these may include the Fighting Dojo, a gym shown to be defunct by Pokémon Red and Blue.

When I first saw the anime episode which is described in this section of the article ( I saw the episode long before I ever read this article) I immediatly thought that Gary recived the badges from other regions (possibly regions that are still unknown as of today) and that the Pokemon League (at least in Kanto) did not care which badges you have as long as you have 8. Also on the subject of more than 8 gym badges in Kanto, there were examples of cites in anime (in Kanto) which were not in the games (such as the city in which Ash got his Muk, if I not mistaken)leading a viewer to believe that there could be many more cities (and gym badges) in the region. I would be glad to hear input from others on these ideas (and people to confirm I am making correct episode references)and if anybody thinks any of these ideas deserve to go in the article.[[User:Tough_guy22|Tough_guy22]] 19:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

::Please clairify, im not quite sure what your question is. [[User:Tough_guy22|Tough_guy22]] 19:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
:::Nevermind, I misread your post. It has been implied in the anime that the badges only work in one region (as Ash must collect 8 new badges in each region, although this didn't happen until a bit after that episode), and so others must have come from gyms and cities not in the games. Maybe it should be summarised in a paragraph in the section before it turns into a big list with no introduction? <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 01:13, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
::::I think the reason I thought that Gary's badges were from a different region was largly because of the fact that the episode took place in Viridan city, which as we know is connected to the walking route that goes to and from Johto. Would you agree with me that the fact that there are "anime only" cities should be mentioned in the article as a possible reason for there being more that 8 Kanto badges?? ([[User:Tough guy22|Tough guy22]] 02:34, 27 May 2010 (UTC))
:::::Yes, it probably should. What should also be mentioned it that there are badges in the anime that aren't in the games (and I mean it should be mentioned outside the character subsections), and that there is thought to be a gym for each type in every region, due to the number of different badges. At the moment it just talks about the badges and then launches into sections for each character. I feel that it looks a little out of place, and the character sections need an introduction of sorts to explain them. That introduction would be the perfect place for this stuff. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 02:48, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
:The character Gary is protrayed to be likely would have fought the harder gyms if there were in fact 15 gyms in Kanto. Whereas Ash simiply fought the gyms in the cities he went to. It is possible that with Gary being related to Professor Oak he knew more about where stuff is and more cities (as Professor Oak supposedly traveled all over when he was young).

:::Okay, i've rearranged the section and extended a paragraph to include some of that stuff.

::::: Forest Badge = Trees and I'm not affraid to say this, but Gardenia is a tree hugger type.
::::: Cobble Badge = Cobble stone/Brick yet to some it looks like a tatami mat.
::::: Fen Badge = Crasher Wake's Mask. Yet somehow people see grey reeds on a lake instead of crystal blue water with a "wake" and "crashing wave." Or the very least Fins sense Fen and Fin sound so much alike.
::::: Relic Badge = Fantina's Drifblim cross inspired hair (somehow O,o.; )
::::: Mine Bade = 3 pick axes and a shovel/spade like Byron's Shovel. Yet to some it looks like 3 pick axes with 3 stones in the voids.
::::: Icicle/Glacier Badge = Iceberg with icy water gracing it's bottom. Yet to some it looks like two icy mountains (when depending on how i follow the points it can look like 3-5 mountains) also to some extent it could look like an upside down group of Icicles.
::::: Beacon Badge = Shinning Beacon, kind of like on a tall Radio Tower or the cooling towers of a power pant. The shape of the badge is even triangular like a stereotypical radio tower, however to some the badge looks like a light house.

::::: It all depends on a number of factors, your knowledge/intelligence (not putting anyone down) and how keen your eye is are major factors. To some, especially those who don't know Bulbadsaur (<-knowledge) the Bulbapedia logo might look like a green colored Onion or an unopened flower. Of course its obviously the Bulb from a Bulbasaur. Howerver, still some people might see that but miss the Pokéball design integrated into the logo.

::::: Looking at Crasher Wake's picture, I can't help but notice he vaguely looks like Gyarados. The way he has his mouth constantly open. His hair looks like Gyarados' fins, and the shape and angle they make mixed with his Mask's middle strap looks like Gyarados' 3-point Crest.

::::: I guarantee you that the Mine Badge having a shovel shape is not as out there as the Relic Badge looking like Fantina's Drifblim cross inspired hair. Its all about a persons prospective.

::::: Now I'd like to take this time to state I'm not trying to cause trouble or call anyone out with debating this with my less than graceful approach. I have trouble expressing what I want to say, and it often gets me in trouble with people. I just thought it was beast to clear that up given a few past experiences and the various horror stories I've heard about wikis which kept me at a distance for almost most of the time wikis have existed.

::::::I'm very well aware of what the head of a shovel and spade look like. But I'm still staying with the shapes being so undefined that it could be anything, but the more likely thing would be rocks, or ores. Since that's what happens when you mine with a pickax: Rocks and ore tumble out of the earth. If there were more defined handles, maybe, but just the head I find unlikely. Even the pickaxes have handles still attached to them. I think you're just being a little too hopeful. Also, Crasher Wake's hair looks nothing like Gyarados. It's just a little tuff on top of his head. The white things you're referring to are part of his mask.

::::::: The comment on what they look like was directed at '''LittleMidget123'''. The pick axes only have handles because they're faced in wards pointing out. Also the Pick axes are the handles for the shovel(s) depending on which angle you come at. There are 4 Shovel heads, each stone is a shovel head, with the pick axe handle as its handle. all three then make a large shovel head. The large Shove head has the pick axe handle as the little ridge where the handle is wedged into the shovel blade. What do you mean too hopeful? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] 14:30, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
You left the message for me too.

''"@ Jo the Martian: You're telling me you can't see it? Ok, try this: Imagine a shovel head, then take three pick axes, arrange them over the shove head like how you see in the picture and you got the Mine badge's design."''

And by too hopeful, I meant you're too determined to prove something that isn't there. I'd also prefer you spelled my name correctly. [[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon (Pokémon)|★]] [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]][[Cilan (anime)|♥]] 14:37, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

I was trying to get you to imagine how you would see a shovel. Also I woke up 10 am EST Monday Morning, I spent all day working on commissions, reviews and other art and word stuff. I haven't even been to bed yet. it is now 11 am EST Tuesday Morning and still I'm not tired. However, a simple and innocent spelling error will happen when you're up 25 hours no matter if you're tired or not.

There are multiple constructs to this badge. You have to look at all the pieces to see the bigger picture. If I asked you if you see a shield, do you think you can see it?

Pieces: Byron has a shovel, He mines, he has a Bastiodon which is basically a shield. Put it all together you get the mine badge.

Picture: The pick axes are pick axes, and they are also the handles and outline line art of multiple shovels and one big shovel head/shield. Not only do the shovel heads make up a shield, so does the entire badge.

Maybe we should get some fresher eyes on this and ask what they think. Kenji girls seems like a level headed candidate, what do you say? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] 15:10, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
:I'm not seeing shovel heads in the Mine Badge either. I can see the shape you're assuming to be shovel heads, but they simply make no sense in being shovel heads rather than being rocks/ore. Their color is extremely wrong for a shovel head, their shape isn't proper for a shovel head as they're too wide and broadly angled, and they're not remotely as defined as the pickaxes are. You're looking too deeply for things that really just aren't there. - [[User:Kogoro|'''Kogoro''']] '''-''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''Talk to me''']] - 15:41, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

::Isolate the middle Pickaxe and middle brown patch, that is the first shovel. Never mind that it's not the exact shape you think of when you thank of a shovel head. When it comes to a pikachu's tail, does a thunderbolt shape not appear in your mind? Ok, now for the big shovel head, look at the shape all three brown patches make, ignore the pickaxe intersection, that is one giant shovel head and it doubles as a shield. (like the one Link from LOZ has)

:: Because of how it is designed, you can make a shovel and shield which ever way you turn it. This gives you 3 pickaxes, 3 shoves, 1 shovel head/ 1 shield. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] 16:14, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

== Trio Badge = Bowtie ==

Just bringing this up as I saw others talking about it. I agree with them, the Trio Badge does not resemble an ear of corn. Turn it to the side and it clearly resembles a bow tie, which all three leaders wear. [[User:Kookamooka|Kookamooka]] 15:41, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
:I can kind of see both, simply because it's yellow around the "kernels". I admit it's not exactly like an ear of corn, it's a bit more stylized. But I'm indifferent on the argument. If it changes, I don't mind. If it stays, I don't mind. Or hey, we could even say it's corn, and a bowtie. Btw, if anyone asks where corn even came from, the triplet's Japanese names are based on corn. Dent (corn), Corn, and Pod (corn).

== Nando's Badges? ==

The article says that Nando has three unknown badges, two of which match Barry's three unknown badges.

== Flint giving out a badge ==

It says next to the Beacon Badge (under other in the anime), that Flint is a giver of said badge. If memory serves correctly (and I'm not trying to be cocky by any means) because it usually does: Ash and Flint battled one-on-one. I think it was the Proprietor who suggested that Flint battle Ash instead. Ash and Flint battled in the Sunyshore Gym, using Volkner's robotic referee, but at no point during that episode did Flint issue Ash a badge. ''Volkner'' did this himself. This should be fixed.

== Earth Badge design ==

[[File:Earth_Badge.png|thumb|right|だれだ？]]
What is the source for the design of the Earth Badge used on the page (to the right)? It doesn't look similar to any of the game, TCG, anime or manga depictions I can find on the wiki (or elsewhere), and the file categories aren't telling me anything. It's a common enough design if you search for the badge on sites like deviantart, but I can't for the life of me locate its source... [[a:User_talk:Greengiant|the uploader's]] talk page doesn't give any solid leads either. He mentioned Psypokes but after poking around the site today and on archive.org way back to 2006 (a bit after he uploaded the file) I couldn't find anything (perhaps he meant on the forums?). Is it some obscure Dream World artwork, or have we been propagating a fan design of this badge for over a decade? ._. - [[User:DanPMK|MK]] ([[User Talk:DanPMK|t]]/[[Special:contributions/DanPMK|c]]) 05:02, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

*The Special Defense boost is not applied if bit 0 of a is not set
*If the Special Attack boost was applied, a is not what it used to be, contrary to what the programmers apparently assumed
*It is instead (per line 6839)
**the high byte of the (Badge-boosted) SpA stat
**minus the high byte of the maximum stat of 999 (read: 3)
**minus the carry from the same operation on the low bytes (where the subtrahend is 231), i.e. minus one if SpA%256-231 is less than zero
*Consequently, bit 0 of a will be unset with a Badge-boosted SpA stat of 232-487 (inclusive), which translates to 206-433 (inclusive) before the Badge boost. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:23, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

'''Shedinja''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヌケニン''' ''Nukenin'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It is considered a special evolution of {{p|Nincada}}, appearing only when Nincada [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Ninjask}} starting at [[level]] 20, as long as there is an extra space in the player's [[party]] and an extra {{i|Poké Ball}} in the player's bag. An extra Poké Ball is not necessary to obtain Shedinja in Generation III.

==Biology==
Shedinja is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} based on a cicada's shed exoskeleton. Most of its body is light brown, but the abdomen is gray. It has four protrusions on its underside instead of legs; the top pair is brown, while the lower is gray. There are round protrusions on the side of its head with narrow slits for eyes. Two lines encircle its abdomen and a white halo floats above its head. On its back is a pair of tattered wings divided into three wingtips. A hole between its wings reveals that its body is completely hollow and dark, as it possesses no internal organs.

It is said that looking into this empty space will steal one's spirit. Its shell is very hard, which gives it strong defense but renders it incapable of movement. It does not breathe and floats without moving its wings. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|tropical and temperate forests}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Hansen Shedinja.png|thumb|250px|Shedinja in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Shedinja debuted in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'', under the ownership of [[Colonel Hansen]]. It was his main battling Pokémon. It reappeared in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'', where it was eventually defeated by [[Misty's Gyarados]]'s {{m|Flamethrower}}.

===Minor appearances===

==In the manga==
[[File:Amber Shedinja Adventures.png|thumb|125px|Shedinja in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Shedinja first appeared in ''[[PS246|Can I Ninjask You a Question?]]'', when {{adv|Amber}}, having been deprived of his Pokémon after being abandoned by [[Archie]], borrowed a Nincada from his comrade [[Shelly]], which then immediately evolves into a {{p|Ninjask}}, putting [[Wattson]] in quite a pinch with the incredible speed it gained by the minute. Although the old Gym Leader eventually managed to defeat it, a Shedinja formed from the shell Ninjask shed and attacked him from behind, sending him sinking into the ocean.

In ''[[PS311|A Dust-Up With Dusclops]]'', {{adv|Emerald}} used a Shedinja during his [[Battle Pyramid]] challenge, exploiting the fact that it required no healing due to it always having just one HP to save on items.

In ''[[PS317|Sneaky Like Shedinja]]'', [[Greta]] used a Shedinja to battle [[Emerald's Sudowoodo]].

A student's Shedinja appeared in ''[[PS530|Movie Panic]]''.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Shedinja appears as a {{sbw|Spirits (characters)|Spirit}}. In the Spirit Battle, Shedinja, depicted as a yellow Mr. Game & Watch, has only 1 HP like in the core series games, but Wonder Guard is depicted as giving Shedinja complete invincibility for 90% of the match, as well as reflecting all projectiles. However, the invincibility is disabled periodically for about a second, allowing the player to KO Shedinja with just one hit.

==Trivia==
* From [[Generation IV]] onwards, a basic {{i|Poké Ball}} (a requirement for evolution) is removed from the [[Bag]] upon evolution to produce a Shedinja. In [[Generation III]], Shedinja instead copied the ball Nincada was in; this is the only legitimate way to get a Shedinja in a non-standard Poké Ball until [[Generation VIII]], where Shedinja can be caught in Max Raid Battles.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Shedinja.
* Shedinja:
** has the lowest base stat total of all {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.
** is tied with {{p|Duskull}} and {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Yamask}} for the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all Ghost-type Pokémon.
** is also tied with {{p|Dreepy}} for the lowest base {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all Ghost-type Pokémon.
* Shedinja is the only evolved Pokémon that has a lower base stat total than its {{p|Nincada|pre-evolved form}}.
* Shedinja is one of only three Pokémon (other than [[baby Pokémon]]) to have a different [[Egg Group]] than its evolutionary relatives, being in the {{egg3|Mineral}} while {{p|Nincada}} and {{p|Ninjask}} are in the {{egg3|Bug}}. (The other two Pokémon that share this trait are {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}}.) However, because it {{egg|Gender unknown|has no gender}}, it cannot breed with Pokémon other than {{p|Ditto}}.
* Shedinja inherits the same game of origin, [[personality value]], {{IV}}s, {{EV}}s, [[original Trainer|OT]], [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID number and Secret ID number]], and met location as the Nincada that shed it. It also inherits the [[Pokérus]] if the Nincada had it. Among other things, due to keeping the same game of origin, personality value, and Trainer and Secret ID numbers, Shedinja will be Shiny if and only if the Nincada was {{Shiny}}.
* The Shedinja shed from a Nincada has no [[nickname]], and the player is not given an opportunity to nickname it. The only way to give Shedinja a nickname is to take it to a [[Name Rater]].
* Shedinja's {{a|Wonder Guard}} Ability renders it immune to 13 of 18 attack types, the most of any Pokémon; four of these immunities (to {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Steel}}, and {{t|Fairy}}) are entirely unique to Shedinja. This also gives it a few further distinctions:
** Even if it is affected by {{m|Foresight}} or {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, Shedinja is still immune to {{t|Normal}} and {{type|Fighting}} attacks.
** Shedinja is immune to all [[one-hit knockout move]]s, unless a Pokémon with {{a|Aerilate}} uses {{m|Guillotine}} or {{m|Horn Drill}}.
** Shedinja is the only Pokémon immune to {{t|Ground}} attacks during {{m|Gravity}}, as well as {{m|Thousand Arrows}}.
** If {{m|Soak}} is used to make Shedinja {{type|Water}}, it will be immune to attacks of 16 of the 18 types.
* Prior to [[Generation V]], if Nincada learns a move upon evolving into {{p|Ninjask}}, Shedinja will also know this move. This means that Shedinja can learn any of Ninjask's level up moves starting at level 20, but can only simultaneously have multiple of them if they are learned at the same level. From Generation V onward, Shedinja starts with the moves Nincada knew prior to evolution.
* Shedinja is the only genderless Pokémon that can learn Egg Moves (as a Nincada). {{p|Staryu}} and {{p|Starmie}} have [[Egg Move]]s programmed into their data in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, but there is no way for them to learn these moves.
* Even though looking into the crack on Shedinja's back is said to steal one's spirit, all of Shedinja's back sprites display it perfectly, yet no negative effects happen to the {{player}} in-game.
* Shedinja is the only Pokémon in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]] to be able to change its name.
* In [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX]], wild Shedinja will spawn on any tile where a wild Nincada was defeated after several turns have passed. They move once every two turns and do not attack. Additionally, other wild Pokémon will try to attack the wild Shedinja if they are nearby, allowing them to evolve without defeating the player or their allies if they succeed in causing it to faint.
* Shedinja is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 236.
* Shedinja's barrier in Max Raid Battles requires the most hits to break, with 8. However because it still faints from one hit, and there is no way to hit it with {{m|False Swipe}}, breaking the barrier is impossible.
* In [[Pokémon GO]], {{p|Ditto}} and Shedinja can't be used in [[Trainer Battle (GO)|Trainer Battles]]. It is currently unknown why.

===1 HP trivia===
Shedinja has the lowest base HP stat of all Pokémon, with only 1. As such, it has many unique characteristics:

* Shedinja is the only Pokémon to have a stat not calculated by the [[Statistic#In Generation III onward|standard formula]]; if it were, Shedinja would have at least 11 HP even at [[level]] 1.
* Shedinja is the only Pokémon that cannot gain any additional HP {{EV}}s.
** In [[Generation VI]], {{EV}}s in HP can be earned from [[Super Training]], though they have no effect for Shedinja.
* Having only 1 HP, Shedinja's {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats normally have no practical purpose in battle. However, if Shedinja receives a {{m|substitute}} through Baton Pass, its Defense and Special Defense are factored into damage the substitute takes. Shedinja's Defense and Special Defense stats also become relevant if a Pokémon uses {{m|Transform}} on it or if Shedinja uses {{m|Power Trick}} or {{m|Body Press}} (both via {{m|Mimic}}), or if an opponent has {{a|Download}}.
* From [[Generation IV]] onward, Shedinja is the only Pokémon that can knock itself out from full health with the recoil damage from {{m|Struggle}}.
* Outside of battle, Shedinja immediately recovers from {{status|poison}} after four steps in [[Generation IV]]; in [[Generation III]], it will immediately faint after four steps.
* Despite it being able to learn {{m|Substitute}}, {{m|Bide}}, and {{m|Rest}}, they will always fail; consequently, the only way Shedinja can have a substitute is via {{m|Baton Pass}}.
* Although Shedinja can learn {{m|Sandstorm}}, it cannot normally use the move without fainting as a result of damage from the {{weather|sandstorm}}. Use of [[Safety Goggles]] allows this to be circumvented.
* If Shedinja uses {{m|Pain Split}} (via Mimic), it will cut the target's HP in half, similarly to {{m|Super Fang}}.
* Shedinja is the only Pokémon that has its HP restored to maximum when leveled up with a [[Rare Candy]] (prior to [[Generation VI]]) or revived with a [[Revive]].
* From [[Generation V]] onward, if a Shedinja has {{a|Sturdy}}, it can survive any damaging move or {{status|confusion}} damage.
* If a Shedinja is holding a [[Focus Sash]], it can survive any single damaging hit (including {{status|confusion}} damage).
* Shedinja is the only Pokémon that can never recover HP using an {{cat|HP-draining moves|HP-draining move}}.
* Although Shedinja can eat [[Dynamax Candy]], its HP will remain at 1 regardless when it [[Dynamax]]es. This makes it the only Pokémon that doesn't get an HP boost when it Dynamaxes.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nincada, Ninjask and Shedinja}}
Shedinja appears to be based on the {{wp|Exuviae|shed husk}} that {{wp|cicada}}s leave behind when they finish their {{wp|metamorphosis}} into adults. It also appears to be a reference to the fabled ninjutsu technique 空蝉 ''utsusemi'', where a {{wp|ninja}} uses a dummy or replica of itself to evade and escape from threats, and where its namesake also alludes to the cast off shed husk of a cicada. It may also be based on a {{wp|guardian angel}} due to the {{wp|halo (religious iconography)|halo}}-like object floating above its head and its {{a|Wonder Guard}} [[Ability]].

====Name origin====
Shedinja may be a combination of ''shed'' (to cast off skin or exoskeleton) and ''ninja''.

Nukenin may be a combination of 抜け殻 ''nukegara'' (casting off skin) and ''ninja''. It may also be a pun on 抜け忍 ''nukenin'' (a term for a ninja who has abandoned their clan and lord).

'''Substitute''' (Japanese: '''みがわり''' ''Scapegoat'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM50]] in Generation I before losing its TM status in Generation II. It regained its TM status as [[TM90]] from Generation IV, until [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], where it was [[TM08]]. It is [[TR20]] in [[Generation VIII]]. It was {{p|Mr. Mime}}'s [[signature move]] in [[Generation II]].

==Effect==
===Generation I===
By decreasing its {{stat|HP}} by 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, the user creates a substitute with 1 HP more than the amount of HP lost by the user. If the user's current HP is less than 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, Substitute fails. If the user's current HP is exactly equal to 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will faint upon creating the substitute. If the user's maximum HP is 3 or less, it will not lose any HP when the substitute is made. The substitute always has the same type and stats as the Pokémon that created it currently has.

If a Pokémon has a substitute, any [[damage]] the Pokémon would take from an opponent's moves, except {{m|Super Fang}} and {{cat|binding moves}}, is taken by the substitute instead. If the substitute runs out of HP or is hit by a [[One-hit knockout move|one-hit KO move]], it breaks. Other damage (except self-inflicted {{status|confusion}} damage), such as [[recoil]] damage or damage from [[status condition]]s, is not affected by a substitute.

Due to a glitch, if a Pokémon behind a substitute takes self-inflicted confusion damage, the damage is applied to the opponent's substitute instead. If the opponent does not have a substitute, no Pokémon or substitute takes damage.

While behind a substitute, its opponent's moves cannot lower its [[stat stages]], {{status|poison}} it, {{status|freeze}} it, {{status|burn}} it, or cause it to {{status|flinch}}. A Pokémon behind a substitute can be inflicted with {{status|paralysis}} or {{status|sleep}} by [[status move]]s (such as {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Hypnosis}}), but not by damaging moves (such as {{m|Thunderbolt}}). Conversely, a Pokémon behind a substitute cannot be {{status|confusion|confused}} by status moves (such as {{m|Confuse Ray}}), but can be confused by damaging moves (such as {{m|Confusion}}) as long as they do not break the substitute. Even if a move breaks a substitute, it cannot inflict any effects it would not be able to inflict to a Pokémon behind a substitute.

Additionally, substitute does not affect the opponent's {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Super Fang}}, {{m|Transform}}, or {{cat|binding moves}}; the user's {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Counter}}, or {{m|Rage}}; nor either Pokémon's {{m|Haze}}.

In the Japanese games, {{cat|HP-draining moves|draining moves}} always miss if the target is behind a substitute. In the Western games, they can hit and drain HP, but will not drain any HP if they break the substitute.

If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Hyper Beam}}, it will not need to recharge. If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, it will not [[fainting|faint]], although its sprite will still disappear until it switches out (or uses Substitute). If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with a [[recoil]] move, it will not take any recoil damage. If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Pay Day}}, that use of Pay Day will not count toward the [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] its Trainer picks up at the end of the battle. If a Pokémon attacks a substitute with a [[multi-strike move]], the hits will automatically end if the substitute breaks.

In Stadium, several oddities and glitches listed above were fixed:
* If the user's current HP is exactly equal to 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will be too weak to create a substitute.
* A Pokémon behind a substitute cannot be inflicted with any [[status condition]] or {{status|confusion}} by an opponent's move.
* If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, it will faint as usual.
* {{cat|HP-draining moves|Draining moves}} always miss if used on a Pokémon behind a substitute.

===Generation II===
In general, the fixed effects from Stadium in Generation I are retained. For example:
* If the user's current HP is equal to or lower than 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will be too weak to create a substitute.
* A Pokémon behind a substitute cannot be inflicted with any [[status condition]] or caused to  {{status|flinch}} by an opponent's move.
* {{m|Super Fang}} affects the substitute rather than the Pokémon behind it.
* {{m|Rage}} works as normal.
* {{cat|HP-draining moves|Draining moves}} always miss if used on a Pokémon behind a substitute.
* If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, it will faint as usual.

Mechanics changed between Stadium and Generation II include:
* The substitute's HP is now exactly equal to the HP lost to create the substitute, instead of being 1 + the HP lost.
* {{m|Leech Seed}} now fails if the target is behind a substitute.
* If a Pokémon behind a substitute hurts itself in confusion, it takes the damage itself.
* {{m|Bide}} can be successfully used by a Pokémon behind a substitute, but damage dealt to a substitute is not considered for the damage Bide deals.
* Because [[recoil]] damage is calculated from how much HP the target has actually lost, if a Pokémon hits a substitute with a recoil move, that attacker will only take 1 HP of recoil damage. ({{m|Jump Kick}} and {{m|High Jump Kick|Hi Jump Kick}} crash damage is calculated normally.) Breaking a substitute with a recoil move no longer prevents recoil damage.
* A [[multi-strike move]] can now continue hitting even after a substitute has been broken, then dealing damage directly to the targeted Pokémon. ({{m|Twineedle}} can poison a target with the second strike if the first strike broke the substitute.)
* {{m|Pay Day}} now works as normal.

Mechanics newly introduced in Generation II include:
* A substitute can be passed by {{m|Baton Pass}}, and it will keep whatever HP it has remaining.
* The moves {{m|Counter}}, {{m|Mirror Coat}}, {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}}, and {{m|Endure}} will fail if used by a Pokémon behind a substitute.
* The moves {{m|Lock-On}}, {{m|Mind Reader}}, {{m|Nightmare}}, {{type|Ghost}} {{m|Curse}}, and {{m|Sketch}} cannot affect a Pokémon behind a substitute. (If a Pokémon affected by one of these moves later gains a substitute, their effects remain.)
* A substitute takes the damage from {{m|Future Sight}}.
* A substitute takes the damage from {{m|Pursuit}} as the user switches out.
* {{cat|Binding moves}} will not trap the target if it is behind a substitute. In addition, creating a substitute will cause the user to escape a binding move.
* If a Pokémon behind a substitute is targeted by {{m|Swagger}}, its Attack is sharply increased as normal, but it does not become {{status|confusion|confused}}.
* {{m|Thief}} cannot steal an item from a Pokémon behind a substitute.
* {{m|Pain Split}} fails if the target is behind a substitute.

===Generation III===
The following effects are carried over/expanded from Generation II:
* A Pokémon behind a substitute cannot have its stat stages lowered by an opponent's {{a|Intimidate}}.
* A Pokémon behind a substitute cannot have its item stolen by {{m|Covet}} or knocked off by {{m|Knock Off}}. {{m|Trick}} fails if its target is behind a substitute.
* A substitute takes the damage from {{m|Doom Desire}}.
* {{m|Yawn}} is blocked by the substitute, but if a Pokémon behind a substitute is already drowsy due to Yawn it can still fall asleep.

The following effects are changed between Generations II and III:
* {{m|Rage}}'s effect will now no longer activate if its user's substitute is hit.
* {{m|Swagger}} and {{m|Flatter}} will now fail if used on a Pokémon behind a substitute.
* {{m|Pay Day}} now does not cause its Trainer to gain [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] if it hits a substitute.
* {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}}, and {{m|Endure}} now behave as normal.
* Damaging {{cat|HP-draining moves|draining moves}} (except {{m|Dream Eater}}) can now hit a substitute as normal, and the user of the move will gain HP depending on the HP the substitute lost. ({{m|Leech Seed}} is still blocked by the substitute.)
* [[Recoil]] moves now inflict recoil damage to the user depending on the damage dealt to the substitute.
* {{cat|Trapping moves}} are now blocked by the substitute.
* {{m|Mimic}} is now blocked by the substitute.

The following effects are newly introduced in Generation III:
* {{p|Shedinja}}, having a maximum of only 1 HP, cannot make a substitute.
* Substitute can be stolen by {{m|Snatch}}.
* {{m|Smelling Salts|SmellingSalt}} will not have any of its additional effects applied if it hits a substitute, even if the Pokémon behind it is {{status|paralysis|paralyzed}}.

===Generation IV===
The following effects are carried over/expanded from Generation III:
* A Pokémon behind a substitute cannot have its item eaten by {{m|Pluck}} or {{m|Bug Bite}}. {{m|Switcheroo}} fails if its target is behind a substitute.
* Like {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}, {{m|Metal Burst}} also does not count damage taken by its user's substitute.
* Similar to SmellingSalt, {{m|Wake-Up Slap}} will not have any of its additional effects applied if it hits a substitute, even if the Pokémon behind it is {{status|sleep|asleep}}.

The following effects changed between Generations III and IV:
* {{cat|Berries that may cause confusion|Self-confusing Berries}} (such as the [[Figy Berry]]) no longer {{status|confusion|confuse}} Pokémon behind a substitute.
* {{m|Tickle}} will now fail if used on a Pokémon behind a substitute.

The following effects are newly introduced in Generation IV:
* The [[Enigma Berry]] will not activate if the substitute takes the move.
* If an opponent's {{m|U-turn}} breaks the user's substitute, and the opponent then switches in a Pokémon with {{a|Intimidate}}, the substitute will not fade until after it has successfully blocked the new Intimidate.
* If a Pokémon behind a substitute uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, the Pokémon switched in cannot be {{status|poison}}ed by {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, but if it is a [[grounded]] {{type|Poison}} Pokémon it will still remove the Toxic Spikes.
* A Pokémon behind a substitute is unaffected by the effects of items thrown by {{m|Fling}} if the substitute takes the move.
* An opponent's {{m|Defog}} will not lower the {{stat|evasiveness}} of a Pokémon behind a substitute, but it will still remove [[fog]] as well as team effects ({{m|Reflect}}, {{m|Mist}}, etc.) and [[entry hazard]]s on the target's side of the field.
* A substitute blocks {{m|Copycat}}, {{m|Embargo}}, {{m|Gastro Acid}}, {{m|Heal Block}}, {{m|Psycho Shift}}, and {{m|Worry Seed}}. A substitute blocks {{m|Acupressure}} regardless of whether it was used by an ally or the user itself.

===Generation V===
A Pokémon behind a substitute cannot have its item destroyed by {{m|Incinerate}} or be given an item by {{m|Bestow}}. The Ability {{a|Pickpocket}} and the [[Item Drop]] from [[Wonder Launcher]] can steal or remove a Pokémon's held item, respectively.

If {{m|Smack Down}}, {{m|Clear Smog}}, {{m|Circle Throw}}, or {{m|Dragon Tail}} target a substitute, their secondary effects will not trigger. The move {{m|Sky Drop}} will fail if the target is behind a substitute.

{{m|Acupressure}} can now successfully be used by a Pokémon behind a substitute on itself, but it will still fail if it targets an ally behind a substitute.

Substitute now blocks {{m|Transform}} and {{a|Imposter}}.

Another Pokémon's {{m|Dream Eater}} can now affect a Pokémon's substitute and acts the same way as other damaging draining moves. {{m|Pain Split}} can now affect a Pokémon's substitute.

===Generations VI and VII===
Substitute no longer blocks {{cat|sound-based moves}} (such as {{m|Metal Sound}}) or any moves used by Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Infiltrator}}, except {{m|Transform}} and {{m|Sky Drop}}. The moves {{m|Hyperspace Hole}}, {{m|Hyperspace Fury}}, {{m|Play Nice}}, and {{m|Spectral Thief}} can also bypass a substitute. {{m|Aromatherapy}} can still heal the user's status conditions if it is behind a substitute, but will now fail to affect an ally behind a substitute. Substitute will prevent {{m|Knock Off}} from discarding a removable held item, however Knock Off's power will still be increased.

If powered up by a [[Normalium Z]] into Z-Substitute, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

===Generation VIII===
[[Dynamax]] Pokémon cannot have a substitute. If a Pokémon Dynamaxes while it has a substitute, the substitute disappears.

===Unaffected moves===

[[File:Greninja SSB4 Substitute.png|thumb|250px|Greninja using Substitute]]
===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Red Rescue Team, Blue Rescue Team]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], Substitute is a move with 7PP. The user targets Pokémon in front of them, ally or enemy, and inflicts {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Decoy}} status condition on them for 21-50 turns, making them more likely to be targeted by the AI. This move is affected by {{m|Snatch}} and {{m|Taunt}}.

From [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]], Substitute instead causes the Substitute status by cutting the user's HP in half. The user will not be targeted by enemies, but the user cannot use moves or items, and cannot restore its HP naturally. If the user is attacked by a move (such as {{m|Earthquake}} which affects the whole room), Substitute will not protect the user from damage. The status lasts 11 turns.

===[[Super Smash Bros.]] Series===
{{sbw|Substitute}} is {{SSB|Greninja}}'s down special. The substitute doll it summons resembles those from the main games, though it can also summon a log. The move functions as a counter, attacking opponents who hit Greninja while it is posing.

There is a trophy of the substitute doll in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]].

====Trophy information====
''If it looks like a Pokémon and it gets attacked like a Pokémon, it's probably a- Oh, no, it could also be a Substitute Doll. This cute plush figure appears out of nowhere when a Pokémon uses the move Substitute. Is that a smile on its face or a grimace of determination? Only the doll knows, and it's not telling.''

===[[Pokkén Tournament]]===
{{Incomplete|needs=More thorough description of what sort of attacks are or are not blocked by Substitute.}}
Substitute is the move used by {{p|Whimsicott}} when called as a Support Pokémon. It conjures up a set of three dolls that rotate around the Battle Pokémon, blocking incoming ranged attacks. It also restores a little of the Battle Pokémon's HP.

* In most {{pkmn|games}}, the decoy and the Pokémon will switch places when the Pokémon executes a move. The only exception is in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], where the battle animations play out as if the substitute was the one performing the move. It generally remains stationary, except when using moves like {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Bounce}}.
* In the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games, the substitute resembles {{p|Rhydon}}.
* {{p|Shedinja}} can learn Substitute despite being incapable of using it, as its HP is too low to create a substitute.
* Substitutes are interpreted differently throughout all forms of Pokémon [[canon]]. In the games, a substitute is seen as an inanimate decoy which simply stands in for the Pokémon. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, substitutes are seen to be clones of the user. In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, substitutes are like the anime representation, but more spectral and transparent, as shown by [[Pika|Red's Pikachu]] in ''[[PS028|Peace of Mime]]''.
* In the Mystery Dungeon series, if the player eats an X-Eye Seed, all other Pokémon appear as substitutes.
* The Plush Toy enemy in the [[Mystery Doors of the Magical Land Series]] in [[Pokéstar Studios]] in {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}} is similar to a substitute.
* In Pokémon Stadium, {{FB|List of|glitch Pokémon}} will appear as the substitutes. The color will vary, however, due to the player's ID and the glitch Pokémon's name. This is because the game treats the glitch Pokémon's name as a [[nickname]], which cause Pokémon to change colors in the Stadium series.
* In [[Generation VI]], the size of the substitute depends on the size of the Pokémon using it. For example, a substitute made by a {{p|Kyurem}} will be bigger than that of a {{p|Flabébé}}.
* During [[Nintendo Direct|Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. Direct]] on April 8, 2014, a substitute plushie is seen in place of {{sbw|Masahiro Sakurai}} as he goes to showcase some of the Pokémon available from the {{i|Poké Ball}} and [[Master Ball]] items.
* Substitute dolls have been featured in several episodes of the anime:
** In the [[Pokémon Origins]] episode ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', a {{p|Growlithe}} can be seen playing with a Substitute plushie in [[Mr. Fuji]]'s {{DL|Lavender Town|Lavender Volunteer Pokémon House|Pokémon House}}.
** In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', a Substitute doll was one of the items offered to {{Ash}} by a market vendor in [[Coumarine City]].
** A Substitute doll owned by {{an|Professor Kukui}} appeared in ''[[SM015|Rocking Clawmark Hill!]]''. It reappeared in ''[[SM097|No Stone Unturned!]]''.
** A Substitute doll appeared in {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}}'s room in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. It reappeared in ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', when Pikachu was shown sleeping with it.
* A Substitute doll appeared in ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'' as one the many items that {{p|Hoopa}} pulled out of its ring while searching for a [[Diancite]] for {{adv|Ruby}}.
* This move plays its animation even if the battle animations are turned off.
* In [[Generation I]] games, if the [[List of glitches in Generation I #Substitute and Minimize glitch|player used Substitute]], then looked at the stats of a Pokémon in their party and then exited the menu, the opponent's Pokémon sprite would change to a glitchy version of the Pokémon that was just viewed.
* The substitute doll appears in the Japanese merchandise line, the FuniFuni Mascot Collection Part 2 (a gacha set). Because it is a secret rare, it is labelled as "???" in promotional material.
*In [[Generation VII]], Substitute is the only TM that can be learned by all Pokémon that can learn TMs, except Pokémon that can only learn moves via TM that they can also learn by other means.

Version-exclusive moves

{{incomplete|article|Generation VIII}}
'''Game-exclusive moves''' are moves that are not available in all games in a single [[generation]]. They are often the [[signature move]]s of [[game-exclusive Pokémon]].

This list does not take into account the fact that the following moves could be {{m|Sketch}}ed, used via {{m|Metronome}}, or obtained from {{pkmn2|event}}s. This list does not include [[Shadow move]]s, which, with the exception of {{m|Shadow Rush}}, are all exclusive to {{Pokémon XD}}. This also does not include moves of Pokémon who cannot be obtained in-game in any game within the generation, such as {{m|Psycho Boost}} during [[Generation IV]] and {{gen|V}}.

* {{m|Hyperspace Fury}} can only be learned in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, but the only Pokémon able to do so, {{p|Hoopa}} [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Hoopa|Unbound]], is event-exclusive.
* {{m|Origin Pulse}}, {{m|Precipice Blades}}, {{m|Dragon Ascent}}, and {{m|Hyperspace Fury}} are not programmed into Pokémon X and Y. As such, Pokémon which know these moves cannot be [[trade|traded]] to X and Y, cannot be used in a link battle against X and Y, and cannot be withdrawn from [[Pokémon Bank]] to a copy of X or Y.

===Generation VII===
[[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] excludes a large majority of moves in the series and cannot interact in any way with [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]]. Because of this, the two games groups are listed separately.

'''Amaura''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アマルス''' ''Amarus'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ice}} [[Fossil]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It is resurrected from a [[Sail Fossil]] and [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Aurorus}} when [[level]]ed up at [[Time|night]] starting at level 39.

==Biology==
Amaura is a quadruped, dinosaurian Pokémon that resembles a {{wp|sauropoda|sauropod}}. It is light blue with a white underbelly. It has a long neck, a short, stubby tail, and a single white claw on each hind foot. Above each of its large, deep blue eyes is an iridescent, sail-like structure. Typically, the sails are yellow at the bottom and fade into pink toward the tips. On each side of its body is a dark blue crystal. [[ Pokémon-Amie]] has demonstrated that its sails can change color with its mood and the crystals on its sides permanently remain at freezing temperatures.

Amaura is a calm Pokémon that lived over 100 million years ago. It lived in a cold land to avoid predators such as {{p|Tyrantrum}}. Despite its restoration, it is not expected to live long in the heat of current climates. As seen in [[XY023|the anime]], it can create auroras.

==In the anime==
[[File:Amaura anime.png|thumb|250px|left|Amaura in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Amaura debuted in ''[[XY023|Coming Back into the Cold!]]'' alongside its evolved form. Both Pokémon were brought back to life after being found frozen in ice. Amaura was captured by {{TRT}} and had to be brought back to the [[Ambrette Town]] Fossil Laboratory before it was too late. The same Amaura reappeared in a newspaper in ''[[XY027|To Find a Fairy Flower!]]''.

An Amaura appeared in ''[[PK26|Pikachu, What's This Key?]]''. It was a resident of a world full of ice and snow, which was accessed by {{AP|Pikachu}} and his friends, courtesy of {{p|Klefki}}'s keys.

An Amaura appeared in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''. It was injured when a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon Hunter]] tried to capture it, but it was rescued by {{OBP|Volcanion|M19}} and taken to the [[Nebel Plateau]], where it recovered.

===Minor appearances===

==In the manga==
===In the movie adaptations===
An Amaura appeared in the {{ma|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel|manga adaptation}} of ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'' as a resident of the [[Nebel Plateau]].

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Amaura and {{p|Aurorus|its evolution}}.
* Amaura and its {{p|Aurorus|evolution}} were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref>[http://hitoshiariga.deviantart.com/art/Pocket-Monsters-XY-413536751 Pocket Monsters XY by HitoshiAriga on deviantART]</ref>

===Origin===
Amaura is based on a young {{wp|Sauropod|sauropod}} dinosaur. It bears a strong resemblance to ''{{wp|Amargasaurus}}'', which were speculated to have skin sail extensions on their vertebral spines. It also shares traits with various species of {{wp|Diplodocoidea}}. The color-changing sails upon its head are also based on {{wp|aurora}}s, most likely aurora borealis due to it being Ice-type.

====Name origin====
Amaura may be a contraction of ''Amargasaurus'' combined with ''aurora''.

Amarus may be a contraction of ''Amargasaurus''.

==In the anime==
===History===
[[File:Genesect Army.png|thumb|left|250px|The Genesect Army in their debut, destroying a building]]
====Pre-series====
The Genesect Army was created by [[Team Plasma]] in their laboratory. After the creation was completed, the Genesect Army attacked them with {{m|Techno Blast}}, which caused Team Plasma to retreat and the Genesect Army, led by the Red Genesect, escaped from the burning lab. After escaping, they attempted to return to their homeland.

====In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Some time later, an image of a Genesect was seen by {{an|N}} on a computer monitor in the ruins of the [[P2 Laboratory]] in ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]''.

In ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', the Genesect Army was mentioned by a Plasma Grunt reporting to [[Ghetsis]]. Referred to only as "Project G", their current whereabouts were considered unknown.

In ''[[BW119|Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!]]'', N visited a ruined building, where he found a {{p|Patrat}} and {{p|Watchog}}. When he heard their voices, he experienced a flashback of the Genesect Army destroying the building before flying away.

====In ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''====
The Genesect Army appeared in this {{pkmn|movie}}, where they played a major role. They were first seen in a snowy climate as they thought their home was there. As the Red Genesect went to the top part of the mountain, it got caught in an avalanche while the other four Genesect were saved by {{OBP|Mewtwo|M16}}. Mewtwo explained to them that time had passed since they were last alive. The Red Genesect escaped from the avalanche and Mewtwo wanted the Red Genesect to join its side. However, the Red Genesect refused as it did not want to be ordered to do anything and attacked Mewtwo, to which Mewtwo quickly dodged. The Red Genesect had the other Genesect attack Mewtwo and they then flew off.

[[File:Team Plasma Genesect Army.png|thumb|250px|The Genesect Army under Team Plasma's custody]]
Later, they arrived in [[New Tork City]] where they went to [[Pokémon Hills]], thinking it was their home. However, the Genesect containing the Douse Drive separated from them and went to a pond where some Oltus flowers were floating in the water. After {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} went up to the Douse Drive Genesect, it folded up in its high-speed form. As Ash was trying to see if the Douse Drive Genesect was awake, the Douse Drive Genesect took flight in the air in with Ash riding on it. After the ride, the Douse Drive Genesect became friends with Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}}. Things went well until the Red Genesect and the Shock Drive Genesect arrived. Ash was excited to see them at first until they attacked him with {{m|Signal Beam}}. Pikachu took on the opposing Genesect but he was no match for them and was easily beaten. The two Genesect then forced the Douse Drive Genesect to attack Ash and {{ashfr}}. Ash tried getting the Douse Drive Genesect to stop but the Red Genesect's control of the Douse Drive one was too strong. After Mewtwo saved the group from the Genesect's attack, the Genesect retreated.

During the nighttime, the Genesect Army went inside Pokémon Hills where they forced the Pokémon out of there and built a giant nest. Since the bottom part of the nest touched the power generator, it caused the power to flicker. Ash, Iris, [[Eric]], and {{p|Sableye}} went into Pokémon Hills from the basement and noticed the Genesect Army building the nest. They met up with the Douse Drive Genesect who apologized to them for attacking them earlier. The Douse Drive Genesect showed the group the Panna Lotus flowers and told how it bloomed in their home. A {{p|Feraligatr}} living in Pokémon Hills tried to attack the Genesect again but got noticed by the Red Genesect and the Shock Drive Genesect. Feraligatr battled the two but ultimately lost to the Red Genesect's {{m|Blaze Kick}}.

[[File:Genesect Army escape.png|thumb|left|250px|Escaping from Team Plasma]]
After Mewtwo saved Feraligatr from falling, it battled with the Red Genesect while the other three Genesect approached the group. Mewtwo and the Red Genesect had their battle throughout New Tork City. The other three Genesect stayed behind and attacked the group. The Douse Drive Genesect tried stopping them but they unleashed Techno Blast at the group. However, the group was saved by {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}}'s {{m|Rock Wrecker}}. The Pokémon from Pokémon Hills had a big battle with the Genesect Army, where the Red Genesect controlled the Genesect Army to attack the Pokémon. The Douse Drive Genesect went up to a {{p|Houndoom}} when it got near the Panna Lotus flowers, only to get blasted away by Houndoom's {{m|Shadow Ball}}. Ash and his friends then ran to the Douse Drive Genesect to see if it was okay. The battle between the Genesect Army continued, as the Genesect were outnumbered and overpowered, until the Red Genesect arrived and blasted all opposing Pokémon away. When the Genesect Army was about to deliver their final attack, Ash stepped in to protect them. The Douse Drive Genesect in turn stepped in to protect Ash and got badly hit. The Douse Drive Genesect's eyes then got dark. As the Pokémon Hills Pokémon were grieved about the Douse Drive Genesect, the other four Genesect attacked them in formation but Mewtwo protected them from Genesect's attack. Afterwards Mewtwo took on the four Genesect alone. The Douse Drive Genesect suddenly woke up and noticed that the Panna Lotus flowers were destroyed.

The fight between Mewtwo and the four Genesect continued where the normal-colored Genesect wrapped Mewtwo around in a string web, but Mewtwo freed itself with {{m|Psystrike}} and sent the three plummeting down. They crashed onto the power generators which caused an even greater power outage to occur. As fire spreaded out onto the nest, the Douse Drive Genesect flew towards it to prevent the fire from spreading even more. Genesect got assisted by the Pokémon Hills Pokémon. The normal-colored Genesect flew back up and noticed Ash and his friends putting out the fire. Feraligatr and Persian rescued them when they got surrounded by the blue flames. In return for saving them, they saved Ash from getting crushed by a pillar.

[[File:Mewtwo and Red Genesect.png|thumb|250px|Red Genesect with Mewtwo]]
As the battle between Mewtwo and the Red Genesect went underway, Ash stepped in to stop them and told Mewtwo that he promised to find the Genesect Army a home, and that every Pokémon belongs somewhere. Despite the normal-colored Genesect realizing the error of their ways, the Red Genesect did not care as he still refused to take any commands. Seeing that the Red Genesect stubbornly refused to listen, Mewtwo took the Red Genesect all the way up to the atmosphere. As they watched over the [[Pokémon world]], they noticed a sunrise there and the Red Genesect finally changed its views. With that accomplished, both Mewtwo and the Red Genesect rapidly fell back to the Pokémon world but got saved by a sphere of water created by all the Pokémon Hills Pokémon. After this, Ash suddenly realized the perfect place for the Genesect to make into their new habitat: [[Absentia Natural Park]], where the Panna Lotuses bloomed, since they have been around since the Genesect were last alive. And so the Genesect Army finally found a home, with both the Douse Drive Genesect and Mewtwo thanking Ash and his friends.

===Personality and characteristics===
The Red Genesect is far more aggressive and antagonistic than its companions. It possesses the ability to force the other Genesect to follow its orders against their will, and often uses this power to gain assistance in its own attacks. It is the last of the Genesect to listen to reason, stubbornly hanging on to its anger at its perceived enemies until the very end.

The Shock Drive, Chill Drive, and Burn Drive Genesect all exhibit aggressive personalities, but to a lesser degree than the Red Genesect. The three commonly follow their leader's orders but come to their senses more quickly. Their aggressiveness was caused by their poor vision and confusion over their location of their homeland, as they were unable to distinguish tall structures and objects from the stone pillars of their homeland, which led to the attack on New Tork City. While the Red Genesect and the other Genesect were focused on their mission, the Genesect containing the Douse Drive wasn't so sure, leading it to form a friendship with {{Ash}}.

Unlike the others, the Douse Drive Genesect's personality is timid and kind. It is not aggressive to those around it and simply wants to go back to its home. When it saw the Oltus flowers in [[Pokémon Hills]], it exhibited childlike glee. It did not attack the people and Pokémon around it unless being forced by the Red Genesect; otherwise, it actively protected innocent bystanders from its companions' attacks. The Douse Drive Genesect is also noticeably smaller than its companions.

'''Honey''' (Japanese: '''ミツバ''' ''Mitsuba'') is a character in [[The Isle of Armor]] in {{g|Sword and Shield}}. She is the wife of [[Mustard]] and the mother of [[Hyde]].

She is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} '''Dojo Matron''' (Japanese: '''おかみさん''' ''Matron'').

==In the games==
Prior to the events in The Isle of Armor, she was the CEO of a trading firm, before meeting [[Mustard]] in one of her business trips and marrying him afterwards. Together, they set up the [[Master Dojo]] on the [[Isle of Armor]], with Honey accidentally developing the [[Max Soup]], which can make a compatible capable of [[Gigantamax]]ing. She originally wasn't a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, but decided to try being one out of whim, and developed a skill in battling that is said to rival that of her husband.

Honey can upgrade the Master Dojo in various ways in exchange for {{OBP|Watt|currency}}s the {{player}} can donate her.

==Blurb==

Ash and Goh head to Ecruteak City in Johto to investigate rumors of a Ho-Oh sighting, and when they arrive, they see something that looks like Ho-Oh flying in the sky! But it’s actually an imitation created by a boy named Chad, whose grandfather Jaye has been unsuccessfully searching for the Legendary Pokémon for years. Jaye has become convinced that Ho-Oh isn’t real, but Ash knows otherwise. Our heroes accompany Chad and Jaye to the top of Bell Tower, where they call out for Ho-Oh. Nothing happens, but just as Ash, Goh, and Chad start to leave, Jaye takes one last look toward the sky…and finally sees Ho-Oh for himself!

==Plot==
[[Goh]] is scanning the news on his [[Rotom Phone]], and becomes excited to learn that the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Ho-Oh}} has recently been sighted. He rushes over to [[Professor Cerise]], who informs Goh and {{Ash}} that Ho-Oh is deeply connected to [[Johto]] folklore. [[Ren]] and [[Chrysa]] reveal that all Ho-Oh sightings have occurred around [[Ecruteak City]]. With that, Ash declare that he will battle Ho-Oh, though Goh is determined to actually catch it.

The boys arrive in Ecruteak City following a bus ride. Relying on Goh's research, they head directly for the [[Bell Tower]], and on the way Goh {{pkmn2|caught|catches}} himself a {{p|Sentret}}. Ash reminds Goh that they should really be focusing on Ho-Oh as their main target, and to their surprise one is flying overhead. Ash has {{AP|Pikachu}} use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Legendary, and shockingly the attack lands and does serious damage. The Ho-Oh begins to land, and the boys trace it directly to the Ball Tower grounds, where it is revealed to be a {{p|Fearow}} and {{p|Cyndaquil}} in disguise. Their {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a boy named [[Chad]] is furious despite Ash's apology. Goh then asks if Chad was behind the recent Ho-Oh sightings, and Chad instantly turns away to hide the haux. His grandfather, [[Jaye]], with a {{p|Hoothoot}} on his shoulder, is also disappointed in Chad's actions. Jaye reminds his grandson that Ho-Oh doesn't exist, but Ash refutes the claim and recounts that he first saw Ho-Oh on [[EP001|the day he set out]] to become a [[Pokémon Master]]. Jaye replies that Ash simply thought he did before walking off.

The boys seek shelter under the stoop as it begins to rain down. Chad informs Ash and Goh that his grandfather use to believe differently. He had shown Chad a [[Rainbow Wing]] from his encounter with Ho-Oh, even traveling around to find the Legendary again. Though Jaye grew disheartened one day, and began to believe finding Ho-Oh was a thankless task. Chad explains that he has his Pokémon disguised as Ho-Oh in an attempt to cheer up his grandfather. Ash suggests they find the real one instead of lying. Chad admits that his grandfather tried for decades. However Goh is more optimistic, and explains of an ancient legend that says Ho-Oh will arrive when a Rainbow Wing is waved at the top of the Bell Tower. Chad replies that his grandpa tries this approach several times already, but it didn't work.

Goh suggests they explore the Bell Tower anyway, so the group of boys step inside. They spot a golden mural depicting Ho-Oh flying with a rainbow behind it. Goh suggests that Ho-Oh must have some connection to rainbows, and Ash affirms this when thinking back to his own encounter. Goh turns to his Rotom Phone to check the [[weather]] conditions over Ecruteak, and reveals that the moving clouds and low sun exposure are the perfect rainbow-creating conditions. The boys settle on a plan - they will wait for a rainbow to appear before waving the Rainbow Feather at the top of the Bell Tower. Chad suddenly rushes out, and later returns with the Rainbow Wing and his doubtful grandfather.

Together the four begin the ascent up the many stairs to the top of the Bell Tower. A wild {{p|Misdreavus}} begins playing tricks, with its disorientating illusion transforming the stairs into a ramp and sending everyone back to the ground floor. A {{p|Stantler}} then appears and induces another illusion using the waves emitted from its antlers. They conquer the steep cliff climb, only to find themselves now surrounded by a desert. Goh turns to his Phone for answers, but the screen is only showing static. Jaye realizes they must be caught up in an illusion, and has Hoothoot use {{m|Foresight}} to transport them back to reality. Goh immediately spots the culprits, Misdreavus and Stantler on the next floor. Stantler prepares to put everyone under again, though Goh catches the two Pokémon before that. Chad is impressed by Goh's easy catches, and Goh replies that he aims to catch every Pokémon.

Ash and the others eventually reach the outdoors. They pause momentarily after coming across a fleet of worn stairs, helping each other up to the top floor. Goh is relieved to see the rain has now stopped. Chad proceed to wave around the Rainbow Wing and calls out to Ho-Oh. Moments pass, when suddenly a rainbow appears in the sky. Chad again calls for Ho-Oh. A rush of wind then blows the Feather out from hand, though Jaye catches it. Jaye admits he has learned a lot from today and goes onto wave around the Rainbow Wing in a bid to finally meet Ho-Oh. Ash, Goh and Chad are all greatly encouraged by Jaye's regained hope, and chirp in to call for Ho-Oh. However they soon stop, as their calls go unanswered. Jaye isn't disappointed, and instead asks Chad to accompany him during his future searches. Chad happily agrees to it. Unexpectedly the Wing begins to glow in all colors of the rainbow. Ash's stomach then grumbles, so Chad invites him over to his house for some homemade curry. As the three boys begin walking away, Jaye catches sight of Ho-Oh in the distance. He calls for the boys to turn around, but it is too late. Nonetheless, Jaye smiles having finally caught sight of Ho-Oh after many decades.

Ash and Goh later return to the [[Cerise Laboratory]], reporting back of the fake sightings. Goh remains focused on his primary goal to catch every Pokémon including {{p|Mew}}, while Ash vows to become a Pokémon Master.

'''Slowbro''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤドラン''' ''Yadoran'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Slowpoke}} starting at [[level]] 37. It is one of {{p|Slowpoke}}'s final forms, the other being {{p|Slowking}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Slowbro''' using the [[Slowbronite‎]].

In [[Galar]], Slowbro has a [[regional form]]. It evolves from Galarian Slowpoke using an item found in [[The Isle of Armor]]. It is one of Galarian Slowpoke's final forms, the other being Galarian Slowking.

==Biology==
Slowbro is a bipedal, pink Pokémon with a tan, striped belly and a rounded, tan muzzle. It has large, vacant eyes, curled ears, and two pointed teeth protruding from its upper jaw. It has three clawed fingers on its hands and two clawed toes on its feet. There is a {{p|Shellder}} attached to its tail. This Shellder has a gray, spiral shell with darker gray spots and small eyes near the base. There are several spikes across the surface of the Shellder, and it holds onto Slowbro with many sharp teeth. Shellder developed its spiral form in an effort to suck more sweetness out of Slowbro's tail. If its tail or the Shellder attached to it is broken off, Slowbro will revert to its unevolved form, {{p|Slowpoke}}.

Slowbro has lost the capability to feel pain due to the Shellder's poison. However, it apparently becomes inspired when the Shellder bites down on its tail. While it is capable of unleashing powerful psychic attacks, Slowbro is typically rather peaceful and usually prefers not to fight. Because it can no longer fish using its tail, it instead swims to catch its prey and allows the Shellder to feed on its leftover scraps. Slowbro tends to live near {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|ponds, lakes, and seashores.}}

When Slowbro Mega Evolves, it becomes engulfed by the Shellder so that only its head, arms, and white-tipped tail are visible. Its head pokes out of the mouth of the Shellder and is surrounded by Shellder's now larger teeth. The spiral Shellder now has an opening at its tip, allowing the tail of Slowbro to stick out. Mega Slowbro balances on its tail due to its legs being engulfed. It can move by bouncing, using its tail as a spring. The spikes on the Shellder are now reduced to four on the bottom section of its body and the dark spots only visible on its middle section. Mega Slowbro's energy has gathered into Shellder, which has increased its hardness. This allows it to act as an armor so hard that nothing can scratch it. Slowpoke is virtually unchanged, but it gains some power and motivation from Shellder's digestive fluids.

Not much is known about Galarian Slowbro, but it does not have a Shellder on its tail.

==Trivia==
* Despite it being a commonly known and accepted fact that {{p|Shellder}} triggers its evolution, mentioned in most of its Pokédex entries, Slowbro's evolution from Slowpoke has nothing to do with Shellder in the core series, unlike how the evolution of {{p|Mantyke}} requires a {{p|Remoraid}}.
* Mega Slowbro is tied with {{p|Cloyster}} for the highest base {{stat|Defense}} stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
** Mega Slowbro has the highest base {{stat|Defense}} stat of all {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.
* Slowbro's Pokédex entries state that if the Shellder is removed, it will revert to its Slowpoke form.
* Many Pokémon are noted to evolve by two or more Pokémon combining, such as {{p|Metang}} being formed by two {{p|Beldum}}. However, the {{pkmn|anime}} does not show this and simply spawns the second Pokémon out of nowhere: an example is [[Morrison's Metang|Morrison's Beldum]], which simply evolved into Metang without the need of joining to another Beldum. The evolution of Slowpoke into Slowbro or {{p|Slowking}} is the only time that evolution by two Pokémon physically merging is shown.
* Slowbro is the only Pokémon to have both a [[Mega Evolution]] and a [[regional form]].

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Slowpoke, Slowbro and Slowking}}
Slowbro's shell and lifestyle are somewhat similar to {{wp|hermit crab}}s, though it is physically similar to {{wp|giant otter}}s, {{wp|giant salamander}}s, and {{wp|hippopotamus}}es. Slowbro's appearance may also be a reference to the mythical {{wp|sazae-oni}}, a magical sea demon of {{wp|Japanese folklore}} distinguished by its spiny "sazae" or "turban shaped" snail shell.

Its parasitic relationship with Shellder may be inspired by {{wp|leech}}es. Interestingly enough, Slowbro is known as the Hermit Crab Pokémon and many real-world parasites, including leeches, often target crabs.

====Name origin====
Slowbro is a combination of ''slow'' and ''bro'' (short for ''brother''). It may just be used in a general sense, or it could refer to the brotherly/symbiotic relationship shared by the combined form of {{p|Slowpoke}} and {{p|Shellder}}.

Yadoran may be taken to mean 宿らん (to not lodge/dwell). It may also reference 宿借り ''yadokari'' ({{wp|hermit crab}}) or 宿主 ''yadonushi'' ([parasitic] host).

List of Pokémon with form differences

2019-12-07T01:40:07Z

Flicky: /* Zacian and Zamazenta{{anchor|Zacian}}{{anchor|Zamazenta}} */

[[File:Cherrim Sunshine Form anime.png|thumb|{{p|Cherrim}} changing between forms in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
<div style="clear: right; float:right">__TOC__</div>
Some Pokémon have official major [[Variant Pokémon|variations]] between individuals, known as '''forms''' (Japanese: '''すがた''' ''form''). These variations all have differing sprites in the games and are recognized by the "forms" section of the [[Pokédex]].

Starting in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, every official different form has a name given by the [[Pokédex]], but {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Genesect}}, and {{p|Furfrou}}'s alternate forms were not registered in the Pokédex prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. From Generation II to IV, whichever sprite is seen first will be the one displayed in the Pokédex by default; e.g., if West Sea {{p|Shellos}} was encountered first its sprite will appear in the Pokédex by default, whereas if East Sea Shellos was encountered first its sprite will. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the sprite displayed in the Pokédex can be changed after interacting with [[Cedric Juniper]] in [[Mistralton City]], even to a {{Shiny}} sprite, if it has been encountered. This option is automatically applied in {{game|Black 2 and White 2|s}}. In Generation VI onwards, the sprite can be changed as long as the player has owned the Pokémon.

At times, these differences are purely cosmetic and have no bearing on the difference in the Pokémon's stats from another; however, several Pokémon differ in stats (other than HP), [[type]], and [[Ability]] depending on their form. Among these are several {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], whose unique forms can be changed between at will and are usually spelled as '''Formes''' (Japanese: '''フォルム''' ''Forme'').

Some Pokémon with form differences can change between their forms (e.g. Castform), while others are fixed and can not be changed (e.g. Unown).

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], [[regional form]] Pokémon were introduced. These Pokémon have adapted specifically for the environment of that region and have different appearances, types and abilities to Pokémon of the same species found elsewhere. The ones found in [[Alola]] are known as Alolan Forms while the ones found in [[Galar]] are known as Galarian Forms.

==Pokémon with multiple forms==
===Pikachu===
====Cosplay Pikachu====
{{main|Cosplay Pikachu}}
Cosplay {{p|Pikachu}} is a unique female Pikachu who has a black heart-shaped mark near the end of its tail. This unique Pikachu is able to be dressed up into different costumes corresponding to each of the five [[Contest condition|conditions]] ({{OBP|Cool|condition|Coolness}}, {{OBP|Beautiful|condition|Beauty}}, {{OBP|Cute|condition|Cuteness}}, {{OBP|Clever|condition|Cleverness}}, and {{OBP|Tough|condition|Toughness}}) and learn an exclusive [[move]] associated with that condition. Cosplay Pikachu can switch costumes anytime at any [[Contest Hall]]. It will lose the move it had with the last costume (if it still knows it), and gain the move from the new costume. If Cosplay Pikachu removes its costume while the only move it knows is the move tied to its costume, it learns {{m|Thunder Shock}}.

Unlike other Pikachu, it cannot [[Evolution|evolve]] or [[Pokémon breeding|breed]]. Additionally, Cosplay Pikachu cannot be deposited into [[Pokémon Bank]]; instead, it can only be traded between copies of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. Cosplay Pikachu is not present in any other games and does not register as a separate form in the Pokémon Bank Pokédex despite it registering separately in the Pokédex of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} (the only games it appears in), after the player takes part in their first {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectacular}}, a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} will give the player Cosplay Pikachu.

====Pikachu in a cap====
{{main|Ash's Pikachu#Pikachu in a cap|Ash's Pikachu → Pikachu in a cap}}
These cap-wearing Pikachu are {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive Pokémon that debuted in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], and are being distributed in celebration of the [[Pokémon anime]]'s [[M20|20th movie]], and by extension, the anime's 20th anniversary. Like [[Ash's Pikachu]], these Pikachu are always [[gender|male]] and cannot [[evolution|evolve]] or {{pkmn|breeding|breed}}. They also have access to the exclusive [[Z-Crystal]], [[Pikashunium Z]], and its [[Z-Move]], {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}}.

Six variants exist in Sun and Moon, one for each of [[Ash's hat]]s between the anime's [[original series]] and its {{series|Sun & Moon}}. A seventh variant debuts in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], wearing the Partner Cap, Ash's hat from the [[M20|20th movie]].

|}

===Pichu===
{{main|Spiky-eared Pichu}}
Spiky-eared {{p|Pichu}} is a unique female Pichu who has a tuft of hair on the end of its left ear. Spiky-eared Pichu's [[Pokéathlon]] [[performance]] stats are different than a normal Pichu's. She cannot [[Evolution|evolve]] or be [[trade]]d, and she cannot be [[Poké Transfer|transferred]] to the [[Generation V]] games.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} (the only games it appears in), if the player takes a {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Pikachu-colored Pichu}} to the [[Ilex Forest]], Spiky-eared Pichu will join the player.

The Form also appears in Super Smash Brothers Ultimate as an alternate costume for Pichu, marking its first appearance since HeartGold or SoulSilver

|}

===Unown===
{{incomplete|section|needs=How does the "independent value" after Generation 3 work?}}
{{p|Unown}} has many forms, each corresponding to a typographical character. It was the first Pokémon to have multiple forms in the games. From its debut in [[Generation II]], there are 26 forms of Unown, each corresponding to each of the 26 letters of the {{wp|Latin alphabet}}. Starting in the [[Generation III]] games, Unown has two additional forms, corresponding to the {{wp|question mark}} and {{wp|exclamation mark}}. These forms are not interchangeable.

In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there is a special [[Unown Mode]], an upgrade to the Pokédex that was developed by the researchers at the [[Ruins of Alph]] to record the different forms of Unown, which is available after the player has caught several Unown. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there is the [[Unown Report]], which is obtainable after the player completes the first tile puzzle in the [[Ruins of Alph]].

In the Generation II games, Unown's form is determined by its {{IV}}s, which results in some strange phenomena; for example, in Generation II, only Unown I and V can be {{Shiny}} due to Shininess also being determined by IVs in these games. In the [[Generation III]] games, Unown's form is determined by its [[personality value]]. From the Generation IV games onward, an independent value determines the Pokémon form.

Though the form has no bearing on [[base stats]], punctuation Unown have different [[performance]] stats to alphabetical Unown.

|}

===Castform===
{{p|Castform}} has four different forms, which its [[Ability]] {{a|Forecast}} causes it to change between in different types of [[weather]]. It is the first Pokémon to have interchangeable forms in battle in the games.

Normally, Castform is {{type|Normal}} and has a plain appearance with a gray body. It takes on this form in clear weather, in any weather without a specific form, and if the weather has its effects negated by {{a|Cloud Nine}} or {{a|Air Lock}}.

In [[harsh sunlight]], Forecast changes Castform to its Sunny Form, which is {{type|Fire}} and resembles the sun. In [[rain]], Forecast changes Castform to its Rainy Form, which is {{type|Water}} and resembles a raindrop. In {{weather|hail}}, Forecast changes Castform to its Snowy Form, which is {{type|Ice}} and resembles a snowy cloud. Castform reverts to its normal form when [[Recall|withdrawn]] from battle.

In Generation III and IV, if Castform's Ability {{a|Forecast}} is suppressed or replaced, Castform will remain in its current form (regardless of the weather). In Generation V onward, if Castform's Ability {{a|Forecast}} is suppressed or replaced, Castform will revert to its normal form (regardless of the weather).

Castform's [[stats]] do not change between any of these forms.

|}

===Deoxys===
{{p|Deoxys}} has four different forms which it can switch between. It was the first Pokémon whose [[base stats]] and [[move]] compatibility differed depending on its form.

In the [[Generation III]] games, Deoxys's forms are game-specific, such that it will always be in one particular form while in the player's possession (although it will be in Normal Forme in the wild).
*In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{g|Colosseum}} and {{XD}}, it will be in Normal Forme.
*In {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed|s}}, it will be in Attack Forme.
*In {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, it will be in Defense Forme.
*In {{game|Emerald}}, it will be in Speed Forme.

From Generation IV onward, the player can switch between its forms using meteorites found in the game.
*In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, using meteorites outside in [[Veilstone City]].
*In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, using meteorites outside on {{rt|3|Kanto}}.
*In {{4v|Black|White|2}}, using meteorites in the {{DL|Nacrene City|Nacrene Museum}} in [[Nacrene City]].
*In {{g|X and Y}}, using meteorites in the {{DL|Ambrette Town|Fossil Lab}} in [[Ambrette Town]].
*In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, using the meteorite in [[Professor Cozmo]]'s house in [[Fallarbor Town]].
* In {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, using the meteorite next to [[Sophocles]] in the [[Hokulani Observatory]] on [[Mount Hokulani]].

Deoxys's Normal Forme is the default form it takes, as well as the form it appears in in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. In this form, its stats are more balanced, though it is notably far more offensive than it is defensive.

Deoxys's Attack Forme has higher {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} than its other forms (being the non-Mega Evolved Pokémon with the highest Attack and Special Attack) and learns more offensive moves. Its {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} are abysmal, much lower than its Normal Form. Its {{stat|Speed}} remains the same as its Normal Forme.

Deoxys's Defense Forme has much higher {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} than its other forms and learns more defensive moves. Its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} are much lower than its Normal Forme, and its {{stat|Speed}} is also significantly lower than its Normal Forme.

Deoxys's Speed Forme has much higher {{stat|Speed}} than its other forms (being the Pokémon with the highest Speed) and learns many increased [[priority]] moves.

Deoxys has the same {{stat|HP}} stat in all of its forms.

===Burmy and Wormadam{{anchor|Burmy}}{{anchor|Wormadam}}===
Both {{p|Burmy}} and its female evolution, {{p|Wormadam}}, have three separate forms. Burmy can change form freely, changing its cloak depending on the environment in which it last participated in a battle (so [[Exp. Share]] alone will not change its form). Wormadam cannot change form; when a Burmy evolves into Wormadam, it retains its cloak.

Apart from {{pkmn|breeding}} and [[evolution]], Burmy's cloak is purely cosmetic; conversely, different cloaks of Wormadam have different [[type]]s, stats, and learnsets. Bred Burmy will have the same cloak as the mother, will be in the same cloak as a Burmy or Wormadam bred with Ditto, or will be in Plant Cloak if bred from a {{p|Mothim}} and a {{p|Ditto}}.

If a Burmy last battled in a grassy area or water, it changes into its Plant Cloak. If female, Plant Cloak Burmy will evolve into Plant Cloak Wormadam, which is a {{2t|Bug|Grass}} Pokémon. This cloak is composed of leaves and twigs.

If a Burmy last battled in a sandy or rocky area, it changes into its Sandy Cloak. If female, Sandy Cloak Burmy will evolve into Sandy Cloak Wormadam, which is a {{2t|Bug|Ground}} Pokémon. This cloak is composed of sand and rocks.

If a Burmy last battled in a building or urban area, it changes into its Trash Cloak. If female, Trash Cloak Burmy will evolve into Trash Cloak Wormadam, which is a {{2t|Bug|Steel}} Pokémon. This cloak is composed of pink {{wp|building insulation|insulation}}.

===Cherrim===
{{p|Cherrim}} changes form depending on the [[weather]]. During [[harsh sunlight]], it changes into Sunshine Form; otherwise, it is in its Overcast Form. Due to its Ability {{a|Flower Gift}}, its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} will also increase in its Sunshine Form.

In Generation IV, Cherrim changes form independently of its Ability. Starting in Generation V, it is Cherrim's Ability that changes its form.

In Japanese, the names of Cherrim's forms use 「フォルム」 ''form'', the term otherwise only used in the names of forms localized as Forme in English.

===Shellos and Gastrodon{{anchor|Shellos}}{{anchor|Gastrodon}}===
{{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}} differ in appearance depending on where they were caught. This is purely a cosmetic difference, and these Pokémon cannot change between forms.

In [[Sinnoh]], West Sea Shellos and Gastrodon are encountered west of [[Mt. Coronet]], and are pink in color; East Sea Shellos and Gastrodon are encountered east of Mt. Coronet, and are blue in color. There is also a slight difference in bodily appearance depending on the form.

In other regions, only one form appears in the wild per game. In [[Generation VI]] [[Hoenn]], Shellos appears as a {{DL|DexNav|hidden Pokémon}}, with West Sea appearing in Omega Ruby and East Sea appearing in Alpha Sapphire. Gastrodon only appears in its West Sea form in [[Kalos]]'s [[Friend Safari]]. In [[Alola]] and [[Galar]], only East Sea Shellos and Gastrodon appear in the wild.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Shellos are the same form as their mother, or the same form as the Shellos or Gastrodon parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

===Rotom===
{{redirect|Heat|the Badge given by [[Flannery]]|Badge#Heat Badge|Badge → Heat Badge}}
[[File:Rotom parts.png|thumb|Rotom and the appliances]]
{{p|Rotom}} has five alternate forms it can change between, in addition to its normal form. To take on these alternate forms, Rotom possesses a different {{wp|household appliance}}, and each has its own special [[move]]. These alternate forms were introduced in {{game|Platinum}}.

*When Rotom has not possessed an appliance it is {{2t|Electric|Ghost}}
*Heat Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|microwave oven}}, knows {{m|Overheat}} and is {{2t|Electric|Fire}}
*Wash Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|washing machine}}, knows {{m|Hydro Pump}} and is {{2t|Electric|Water}}
*Frost Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|refrigerator}}, knows {{m|Blizzard}} and is {{2t|Electric|Ice}}
*Fan Rotom, which has possessed an {{wp|mechanical fan|electric fan}}, knows {{m|Air Slash}} and is {{2t|Electric|Flying}}
*Mow Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|lawn mower|lawnmower}}, knows {{m|Leaf Storm}} and is {{2t|Electric|Grass}}

In [[Generation IV]], all forms of Rotom are {{2t|Electric|Ghost}}-type; from Generation V onward, the appliance forms replace the Ghost type with the type of their associated move. All appliance forms have the same base stats, with a higher total than that of Rotom's regular form; the only base stat of normal Rotom that is higher than its appliance forms is its Speed.

*In Pokémon Platinum, the appliances are located in [[Rotom's Room]] in the [[Team Galactic Eterna Building]], which can only be accessed by using the {{si|Secret Key}}.
*In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the appliances are located in [[Rotom's Room]] in [[Silph Co.]], which can be accessed when entering the broken elevator with Rotom as the [[walking Pokémon]].
*In {{4v|Black|White|2}}, the appliances are located in boxes in the basement of [[Shopping Mall Nine]].
*In {{g|X and Y}}, the appliances are located in boxes on the second floor of the Sycamore Pokémon Lab in [[Lumiose City]].
*In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the appliances are located in boxes in [[Professor Birch]]'s lab in [[Littleroot Town]].
*In {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the appliances are located in boxes in [[Professor Kukui]]'s lab in [[Alola Route 1|Hau'oli Outskirts]].
*In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the [[Rotom Catalog]], found in [[Wyndon]], was introduced, which allows the player to change Rotom's form at will whereever they are.
Using these locations, Rotom can also return the appliance to change back to normal form.

Upon changing from an appliance form, it will forget the special move associated with that appliance form. Upon changing into an appliance form, it will learn the special move associated with the form. When changing form, if Rotom knows four moves but not the special move of its previous form, the player will be prompted to replace a move with the new exclusive move (Rotom cannot change to an appliance form unless it does). If Rotom's only known move is its special move and it changes to its normal form, then the Rotom will learn {{m|Thunder Shock}}. In [[Generation IV]] and {{gen|V}}, if Rotom forgets the move that is tied to its appliance form, it changes back into its normal form; in Generation VI, Rotom can remain in an appliance form even if it forgets the associated special move.

{{pkmn|Egg|Hatched}} Rotom are always in normal form.

In [[Generation IV]], Rotom changes back to its normal form when taken into the [[Union Room]] or [[Wi-Fi Club]], or when deposited in the {{pkmn|Day Care}}.

Rotom's appliance forms first appeared as silhouettes in August 2008, shortly before the Japanese release of {{game|Platinum}}, with a statement that indicated that these Pokémon would be in the game. Days before the game's release, it was revealed that these Pokémon were the alternate forms of Rotom. These new forms made their debut in Pokémon Platinum, and have been included in every [[core series]] game since.

===Giratina===
{{p|Giratina}} has two forms it can change between. The Origin Forme was introduced in {{game|Platinum}}.

In the [[Pokémon world]], it is normally in its Altered Forme, which is a winged hexapod; in the [[Distortion World]] or while holding a [[Griseous Orb]], it is in its Origin Forme, which is serpentine with six appendages.

The two forms have different stats and Abilities; the Origin Forme is more offense-oriented, while the Altered Forme is more defense-oriented.

===Shaymin===
{{p|Shaymin}} has two forms it can change between. The Sky Forme was 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.

Sky Forme Shaymin will change back into its Land Forme at night or if it is {{status|frozen}} (and cannot change into Sky Forme while either is the case); Shaymin also changes back to Land Forme when deposited in the [[PC]] (prior to Generation VII), when withdrawn from the PC (Generation VII), when deposited in [[Pokémon Bank]], or when deposited in the [[Pokémon Day Care]]/[[Pokémon Nursery]].

The two forms have different stats, {{Abilities}}, [[type]]s, learnsets, and [[cry|cries]].

===Arceus===
{{p|Arceus}} has eighteen different type form variations, which correspond to the eighteen different [[type]]s.

Arceus's type depends on its held [[Plate]] or type-specific [[Z-Crystal]], becoming the same type as the type that Plate enhances or the Z-Crystal corresponds to, remaining {{type|Normal}} when not holding a Plate or Z-Crystal.

While its base stats remain constant despite its changing type, its [[Pokéathlon]] performance differs. Additionally, it can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}} only while holding the [[Draco Plate]].

In the [[Generation IV]] games, there is unused data and a sprite programmed for a {{type|???}} {{p|Arceus}}, but it cannot be obtained in the games as there is no ???-type Plate. This data no longer exists in [[Generation V]] due to the removal of the ??? type.

Prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Arceus's alternate forms are not registered in the [[Pokédex]].

===Basculin===
{{p|Basculin}} has two different forms, the Red-Striped Form and the Blue-Striped Form. The Red-Striped Form has a red stripe with wide eyes and spiky fins; the Blue-Striped Form has a blue stripe with squinted eyes and smooth fins. These forms are non-interchangeable.

*In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black}} and {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2}}, red-striped Basculin can be encountered normally, while blue-striped Basculin can only be encountered by {{m|surf}}ing on or [[fishing]] in [[Phenomenon|rippling water]].
*In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon White}} and {{game|Black and White|s 2|White 2}}, blue-striped Basculin can be encountered normally, while red-striped Basculin can only be encountered by surfing on or fishing in rippling water.
*In {{pkmn|X and Y|Pokémon X}}, blue-striped Basculin can only be encountered using a [[Good Rod]] while red-striped Basculin can only be encountered using a [[Super Rod]]. This order is reversed in {{pkmn|X and Y|Pokémon Y}}, with red-striped Basculin requiring a Good Rod and blue-striped Basculin requiring a Super Rod. {{rt|21|Kalos}} is the exception, where only red-striped Basculin can be caught with either rod.
*In {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Sun}}, red-striped Basculin can be found by fishing while blue-striped Basculin must be traded for. This is reversed in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Moon}}, with only blue-striped Basculin being found naturally.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Basculin are the same form as their mother, or the same form as the Basculin parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

Wild red-striped Basculin have a 5% chance of holding a [[Deep Sea Tooth]] while wild blue-striped Basculin have a 5% chance of holding a [[Deep Sea Scale]].

In Pokémon Black and White, blue-striped Basculin have the same two standard possible Abilities as red-striped Basculin—{{a|Reckless}} and {{a|Adaptability}} (and are listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D]]); however, the blue-striped Basculin that can be obtained via in-game trade in Pokémon White has the Ability {{a|Rock Head}}. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, wild blue-striped Basculin's two standard possible Abilities are {{a|Rock Head}} and {{a|Adaptability}}, while red-striped Basculin's stay the same (and are listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D Pro]]); however, blue-striped Basculin [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 have Reckless and Adaptability as their two standard Abilities. When a blue-striped Basculin with Reckless is transferred from [[Generation V]] to [[Generation VI]], its Ability is changed to Rock Head.

|}

===Darmanitan===
If {{p|Darmanitan}} has {{a|Zen Mode}} as its Ability, it changes from Standard Mode into Zen Mode when its HP drops to below half in battle. It can only remain in Zen Mode in battle.

Standard Mode Darmanitan is {{type|Fire}} and red in color. Zen Mode Darmanitan is {{2t|Fire|Psychic}}-type and blue in color. Galarian Darmanitan is {{type|Ice}} and white in color with blue accents, while Galarian Zen Mode Darmanitan is {{2t|Ice|Fire}}-type and white in color with red accents.

The original two forms have different stats, such that Zen Mode Darmanitan swaps the Attack and Special Attack of Standard Mode, and has higher defenses but lower Speed. On the other hand, Galarian Darmatian, in its Zen Mode, focuses on rushing the opposition with increased Attack and Speed.

|}

===Deerling and Sawsbuck{{anchor|Deerling}}{{anchor|Sawsbuck}}===
{{p|Deerling}} and {{p|Sawsbuck}} have four different interchangeable forms, each corresponding to a [[seasons|season]]. These forms are purely cosmetic.

In the [[Generation V]] games, Deerling and Sawsbuck will only change their form to match the current season if they are in the player's [[party]] when: the player steps outside from a [[cave]] or building such that the season changes, the player receives an {{pkmn|Egg}} from the [[Pokémon Day Care|Day-Care]] Man, or a saved game is loaded. All wild, [[Pokémon breeding|bred]], or NPC Trainer-owned Deerling and Sawsbuck will match the current season, with the exception of Trainers in the [[Battle Subway]] and the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] where these Pokémon are always in Spring Form.

In [[Generation VI]], all wild and NPC Trainer-owned Deerling and Sawsbuck appear in Spring Form. Because seasons have been abandoned as a mechanic, Deerling and Sawsbuck do not change appearance, and their Summer, Autumn, and Winter forms must be [[Poké Transporter|transferred]] from a [[Generation V]] game. Bred Deerling are the same form as their mother, or the same form as the Deerling or Sawsbuck parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

===Forces of Nature{{anchor|Tornadus}}{{anchor|Thundurus}}{{anchor|Landorus}}===
The [[Forces of Nature]]—{{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}—have two interchangeable forms each.

Normally, they are in their Incarnate Forme. When exposed to a [[Reveal Glass]], they change into their Therian Forme. Their Therian Formes were introduced in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]].

The two forms have different stats, {{Abilities}}, and [[cry|cries]]. Even if they have their Hidden Ability, in Therian Forme each Pokémon only has one possible Ability.

In the [[Generation V]] games, they cannot be traded while in their Therian Forme.

|}

===Kyurem===
{{p|Kyurem}}, in addition to its normal form, has two other forms: White Kyurem and Black Kyurem. They are the [[game mascot]]s of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], which they were introduced in.

In the games, Kyurem changes its form through the use of the [[DNA Splicers]], which fuses it with {{p|Reshiram}} or {{p|Zekrom}}. The combination retains Kyurem's Poké Ball and [[held item]]. This fusion is reversible, with Reshiram or Zekrom remaining unaltered from before being fused, including whatever item it may have been holding. The DNA Splicers can only fuse one Kyurem at a time. White Kyurem and Black Kyurem cannot be deposited into [[Pokémon Bank]], nor can they be [[trade]]d.

White Kyurem has the Ability {{a|Turboblaze}}, learns the moves {{m|Fusion Flare}} and {{m|Ice Burn}}, and its cry is a combination of normal Kyurem and Reshiram's cries.

Black Kyurem has the Ability {{a|Teravolt}}, learns the moves {{m|Fusion Bolt}} and {{m|Freeze Shock}}, and its cry is a combination of normal Kyurem and Zekrom's cries.

===Keldeo===
{{p|Keldeo}} has two interchangeable forms: Ordinary Form and Resolute Form. These forms are mostly cosmetic. The Resolute Form was introduced in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]].

If Keldeo is taught {{m|Secret Sword}} from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 onward, it will change into Resolute Form. If it forgets Secret Sword, it returns to Ordinary Form. Keldeo taught Secret Sword in {{game|Black and White|s}} remain in Ordinary Form in other games.

===Meloetta===
{{p|Meloetta}} has two interchangeable forms: Aria Forme and Pirouette Forme. Aria Forme is {{2t|Normal|Psychic}}. Pirouette Forme is {{2t|Normal|Fighting}}.

Normally, it is in Aria Forme, which is the only form it can take outside of battle. If Meloetta uses the move {{m|Relic Song}} in battle, it changes between the two forms. It reverts to Aria Forme if withdrawn.

===Genesect===
In the games, {{p|Genesect}} changes forms when a [[Drive]] is attached to its back. These forms have no direct effect, although they do change the type of Genesect's [[signature move]] {{m|Techno Blast}}.

*If no Drive is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Normal}} and Genesect will appear to have a dark yellow Drive.
*If a [[Shock Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Electric}} and Genesect will appear to have a light yellow Drive.
*If a [[Burn Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Fire}} and Genesect will appear to have a red Drive.
*If a [[Chill Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Ice}} and Genesect will appear to have an ice blue Drive.
*If a [[Douse Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Water}} and Genesect will appear to have a blue Drive.

Prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Genesect's alternate appearances are not registered in the [[Pokédex]].

===Greninja===
{{Redirect|Ash-Greninja|the Greninja that belonged to [[Ash Ketchum]]|Ash's Greninja}}
In the [[S19|''XY&Z'' arc]] of the {{pkmn|anime}}'s {{series|XY}}, [[Ash's Greninja]] gained the ability to transform into a stronger form known as "Ash-Greninja" through an occurrence known as the [[Bond Phenomenon]]. In the games, a {{p|Greninja}} with the Ability {{a|Battle Bond}} will transform into Ash-Greninja after it causes an opponent to [[fainting|faint]]. In this form, the move {{m|Water Shuriken}} will become more powerful and always hit 3 times. Greninja will stay in this form until the end of battle or it faints. A {{p|Greninja}} with Battle Bond can be transferred to [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] from the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version|Special Demo Version]].

Internally, normal Greninja with Battle Bond are considered a separate form than that of Greninja with {{a|Torrent}} or {{a|Protean}}. These Greninja are always [[gender|male]] and cannot {{pkmn|breeding|breed}}.

===Vivillon===
{{p|Vivillon}} has 18 different distinct patterns depending on the set geographic location of the [[Nintendo 3DS]] system on which the {{p|Scatterbug}} was generated (for {{pkmn|Egg}}s, this means the game in which the Egg was created). This form cannot be changed. The pattern of Vivillon encountered within a game is set when the save file is created.

Bred {{p|Scatterbug}} will evolve into {{p|Vivillon}} with the same pattern as that of the breeding player's game, regardless of its parents.

===Flabébé, Floette, and Florges{{anchor|Flabébé}}{{anchor|Floette}}{{anchor|Florges}}===
{{p|Flabébé}}, {{p|Floette}}, and {{p|Florges}} can hold five different-colored flowers: red, yellow, orange, blue, and white. The flower color is maintained through [[evolution]] and cannot be changed.

In {{g|X and Y}}, Flabébé appear in the wild in {{DL|Tall grass|flowers}}, with the colors of Flabébé's flower available depending on the flower patch (although each flower patch has multiple Flabébé flower colors). In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, wild Flabébé appear in Alola's three meadows, with the color of wild Flabébé's flowers depending on the meadow's flowers' color (Yellow Flower in [[Melemele Meadow]], Red Flower in [[Ula'ula Meadow]], Blue Flower in [[Poni Meadow]]); Orange and White Flower Flabébé exclusively appear as allies called in an [[SOS Battle]], and can be called by any Flabébé regardless of location.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Flabébé have the same color flower as their mother, or the same form as the Flabébé, Floette, and Florges parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

In [[Generation VI]], since only Blue Flower, Red Flower, and Yellow Flower Floette can appear in the [[Friend Safari]], only these forms of Flabébé, Floette, and Florges can have their {{DL|Ability|Hidden Ability}} {{a|Symbiosis}}. In [[Generation VII]], all forms of the Flabébé evolutionary line can have their Hidden Ability.

[[File:AZ's Floette.png|thumb|200px|AZ's unique Floette]]
In the storyline of {{g|X and Y}}, there is also a unique Floette who [[AZ]] befriended 3,000 years ago. The flower it wields has a different design than normal, resembling the structure of the ancient [[ultimate weapon]] constructed by AZ; the flower also has a blue, red, and white color instead of green, yellow, and white, reflecting the colors of the {{wp|Flag of France|French tricolor}}. The [[Generation VI]] and {{gen|VII}} games include unused data for a trainable unique Floette. Unlike the other forms, it can learn the move {{m|Light of Ruin}}, and is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon able to do so]].

===Furfrou===
{{p|Furfrou}} can be groomed into one of ten different trims. These trims only last for five days after being groomed. Furfrou will also lose its trim when it is deposited in the [[PC]] (Generation VI), withdrawn from the PC (Generation VII), deposited in [[Pokémon Bank]], or deposited in the [[Pokémon Day Care]]/[[Pokémon Nursery]].

The location at which Furfrou can be groomed differs between games.
*In {{g|X and Y}}, Furfrou can be groomed at {{DL|Lumiose City|Friseur Furfrou}} in [[Lumiose City]] for {{PDollar}}500. The player gains access to more trims as they become more [[Lumiose City#Style|stylish]].
*In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, Furfrou can be groomed at the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Slateport City]] for {{PDollar}}500.
*In {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, for {{PDollar}}500 Furfrou can be groomed by a {{tc|Punk Girl}} at [[Malie City]]'s salon or a {{tc|Beauty}} at [[Hau'oli City]]'s salon{{sup/7|USUM}}.

In {{g|X and Y}} only, Furfrou's trims are not registered in the [[Pokédex]].

===Aegislash===
{{p|Aegislash}}, due to its Ability {{a|Stance Change}}, can change forms in battle depending on the move it uses. Initially in Shield Forme, using a damaging move will change it to Blade Forme, while using {{m|King's Shield}} will change it back into Shield Forme. Outside of battle it is always in Shield Forme.

Shield Forme Aegislash has high {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}, while Blade Forme Aegislash has high {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}}.

===Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist{{anchor|Pumpkaboo}}{{anchor|Gourgeist}}===
{{p|Pumpkaboo}} and {{p|Gourgeist}} can be of Small, Average, Large and Super Size. Larger sizes of Pumpkaboo are rarer to encounter in the wild.

Different sizes have different base stats. For Pumpkaboo, with each increase in size, its base HP stat increases by 5 points while its base Speed stat decreases by 5 points. For Gourgeist, with each increase in size, its base HP stat increases by 10 points and its base Attack stat increases by 5 points while its base Speed stat decreases by 15 points. Consequently, the base stat total of a Pumpkaboo or Gourgeist does not vary with size.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Pumpkaboo are the same size as their mother, or the same form as the Pumpkaboo or Gourgeist parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

Wild Super Size Pumpkaboo will always hold a {{DL|Type-enhancing held item|Miracle Seed}}, whereas other sizes will never hold an item in the wild. Super Size variants have different, lower pitched cries than the other forms.

Only Average Size and Super Size Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist can have their Hidden Ability {{a|Insomnia}}. Average Size can be obtained with its Hidden Ability from the [[Friend Safari]]; Super Size could be obtained with its Hidden Ability from {{pkmn2|event}}s.

The different sizes of Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist do not use different menu sprites.

===Xerneas===
{{p|Xerneas}} has two forms: Neutral Mode and Active Mode. There is no gameplay difference between them; Xerneas appears in Active Mode in battle, and appears in Neutral Mode in situations outside of battle, such as cutscenes, the Pokédex, the [[Party|Pokémon]] screen, and [[Pokémon-Amie]]. According to the Pokédex, Xerneas shares everlasting life while it is in Active Mode.

Xerneas's horns and some highlights in its fur are light blue in Neutral Mode and light gold in Active Mode. In Active Mode, the protrusions on its horns as well as its back spots light up in several colors.

|}

===Zygarde===
{{p|Zygarde}} has three different Formes, as well as two distinct constituent parts. The 50% Forme debuted in [[Pokémon X and Y]]. The other two Formes and both constituent parts debuted in the {{pkmn|anime}} during the ''{{DL|List of XY series episodes|XY&Z}}'' arc of the {{series|XY}}, and made their [[core series]] debut in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]].

A Zygarde Cell is a single cell of Zygarde. They can be found scattered throughout the region. They do not have thoughts or will, and can communicate with Zygarde Cores via telepathy. They are incapable of performing [[move]]s.

A Zygarde Core is a "brain" of Zygarde. They can communicate with Zygarde Cells and other Cores via telepathy. They take action when the region's ecosystem is threatened.

Zygarde 10% Forme is a Zygarde with 10% of its cells. It has razor-sharp teeth, and can reach speeds up to 60 mph (100 km/h). It can change into Complete Forme with its Ability {{a|Power Construct}}.

Zygarde 50% Forme is a Zygarde with 50% of its cells. It watches over and maintains the local ecosystem. It can change into Complete Forme with its Ability {{a|Power Construct}}.

In battle, a Zygarde with the {{a|Power Construct}} Ability will change into Complete Forme when its HP falls below half in a battle.

Zygarde Complete Forme is a Zygarde with 100% of its cells. Zygarde only takes on this form when the ecosystem is under threat and it believes Zygarde 50% Forme is unable to deal with it. Its power is said to exceed that of {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], the Aether Base on {{rt|16|Alola}} on [[Ula'ula Island]] contains a Reassembly Unit, which can be used to create Zygarde 10% Forme and Zygarde 50% Forme from Zygarde Cells and Cores in the player's [[Zygarde Cube]], or disassemble Zygarde with Aura Break back into Cells and Cores (Zygarde with Power Construct cannot be separated).

The player can create any number of Zygarde using the Reassembly Unit as long they have enough Cores and Cells. A Zygarde 10% Forme with Aura Break can be assembled with 10 Cells and Cores, a Zygarde 50% Forme with Aura Break can be assembled with 50 Cells and Cores, and a Zygarde 50% Forme with Power Construct can be assembled with 100 Cells and Cores. The Zygarde Cube can be used to change a Zygarde with Power Construct between 10% Forme and 50% Forme; Zygarde with Aura Break cannot change forms.

While only 100 Cells and Cores are normally available in one save file, the player can obtain more by separating Zygarde with Aura Break from other games. A Zygarde separated into Cells will be lost forever.

In Pokémon Sun and Moon, the player can collect Zygarde Cells and Cores in the overworld throughout the Alola region after obtaining the [[Zygarde Cube]]. There are a total of 5 Cores and 95 Cells throughout the region.

In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the player can catch a wild Zygarde 50% Forme in [[Resolution Cave]] on [[Poni Island]]; after the player catches this Zygarde, [[Dexio]] will battle the player on {{rt|16|Alola}}, and upon being defeated he will give the player the Zygarde Cube (containing 40 Zygarde Cells) and Zygarde 10% Forme.

===Hoopa===
{{p|Hoopa}} has two Formes it can change between, using the [[Prison Bottle]] to temporarily change to its more powerful Forme.

Normally, Hoopa Confined is the Forme taken by Hoopa, which is {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}}. When exposed to a [[Prison Bottle]], Hoopa transforms into Hoopa Unbound, which is {{2t|Psychic|Dark}}. Hoopa Unbound was introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

Hoopa Unbound will change back into Hoopa Confined after three days have passed since using the Prison Bottle; Hoopa also changes back to Hoopa Confined when deposited in the [[PC]] (prior to Generation VII), when withdrawn from the PC (Generation VII), or when deposited in the [[Pokémon Day Care]]/[[Pokémon Nursery]].

The two forms have different stats, [[type]]s, learnsets, and [[cry|cries]]. Unlike other Pokémon with form differences, Hoopa has more than one [[Pokémon category|category]].

===Oricorio===
{{p|Oricorio}} has four distinct styles. Depending on which island the player is on, the form that is encountered will be different. Baile Style is only found on [[Ula'ula Island]], Pom-Pom Style on [[Melemele Island]], Pa'u Style on [[Akala Island]], and Sensu Style on [[Poni Island]]. Oricorio can manually change forms by sipping the [[nectar]] of certain flowers. Each of Oricorio's four styles has a different primary [[type]]; Oricorio's [[signature move]] {{m|Revelation Dance}} changes type to match the user's primary type. The forms also have different [[cry|cries]].

===Wishiwashi===
{{p|Wishiwashi}} can change forms using its {{a|Schooling}} Ability if it is at least level 20. It will change from Solo Form to School Form at the start of a battle or at the end of a turn if its {{stat|HP}} is above 25% of its maximum HP.

===Minior===
{{p|Minior}} has two forms that it changes between with its Ability, {{a|Shields Down}}. It will change from Core Form to Meteor Form at the start of a battle or at the end of a turn if its {{stat|HP}} is above 50% of its maximum HP. If its HP falls below 50% of its maximum HP, its shell breaks and it changes back to Core Form at the end of that turn. Outside of battle, Minior is always in Core Form. However, wild Minior are always encountered in Meteor Form.

Meteor Form and Core Form have different stats. Due to its Ability Shields Down, Meteor Form Minior cannot be afflicted by [[status condition]]s.

A Minior's Core Form can be one of seven different colors. Bred Minior will always have the same Core color as their parent.

===Mimikyu===
{{p|Mimikyu}} has two forms called Disguised Form and Busted Form. When a Mimikyu in Disguised Form that has the {{a|Disguise}} Ability is hit by a damaging attack, it does not take damage and instead transforms into Busted Form. In Busted Form, its disguise slumps to the side and it can be damaged by normal means. Mimikyu will stay in Busted Form until either it faints or the battle ends.

===Necrozma===
{{p|Necrozma}} has three additional forms; Dusk Mane Necrozma, Dawn Wings Necrozma, and Ultra Necrozma. All three forms were introduced in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]].

Dusk Mane Necrozma is the form it attains from absorbing Solgaleo. The player can induce this fusion with the [[N-Solarizer]]. After fusing, Necrozma will attempt to learn {{m|Sunsteel Strike}}, and can use Solgaleo's exclusive Z-Move, {{m|Searing Sunraze Smash}}. Its cry is a combination of normal Necrozma and Solgaleo's cries.

Dawn Wings Necrozma is the form it attains from absorbing Lunala. The player can induce this fusion with the [[N-Lunarizer]]. After fusing, Necrozma will attempt to learn {{m|Moongeist Beam}}, and can use Lunala's exclusive Z-Move, {{m|Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom}}. Its cry is a combination of normal Necrozma and Lunala's cries.

Ultra Necrozma is a third form Necrozma can only enter in {{pkmn|battle}} as one of the previous two forms. While holding its exclusive [[Z-Crystal]], [[Ultranecrozium Z]], the player can use the [[Ultra Burst]] command from the move menu to transform into Ultra Necrozma. Once transformed, Ultra Necrozma can also use Ultranecrozium Z and {{m|Photon Geyser}} to use its exclusive Z-Move, {{m|Light That Burns the Sky}}.

===Magearna===
{{p|Magearna}} has an alternate form called Original Color Magearna. The only difference between Magearna's forms is aesthetic: the Original Color form is red and gold. The Original Color form cannot be legitimately obtained, and has only appeared in an official capacity in the {{pkmn|anime}} {{pkmn|movie}}, ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''.

===Cramorant===
{{p|Cramorant}} has three base forms, all activated by its [[Ability]], {{a|Gulp Missile}}. When Cramorant activates Gulp Missile with over 50% {{stat|HP}}, it will change into Gulping Form, where it tries to swallow an {{p|Arrokuda}}. If an opponent hits Gulping Form Cramorant with an attack, it will spit out the Arrokuda, damaging the opponent and lowering their {{stat|Defense}}. If Cramorant's HP is under 50%, it will change into Gorging Form, where it attempts to swallow a {{p|Pikachu}} instead. If an opponent hits Gorging Form Cramorant, the counterattack will damage and {{status|Paralyze}} them.

===Toxtricity===

Both forms of Toxtricity have the same stats, but learn slightly different moves, and have a different pool of [[Ability|Abilities]].

===Alcremie===
{{p|Alcremie}} has nine named base variants, based on how long, what direction, and what time the player spins and poses when evolving its base form, {{p|Milcery}}. These nine forms have seven further variants, based on the sweet Milcery is holding at the time, which affects Alcremie's decoration and eye color. These sweets include [[Strawberry Sweet]], [[Berry Sweet]], [[Love Sweet]], [[Star Sweet]], [[Clover Sweet]], [[Flower Sweet]], and [[Ribbon Sweet]]. This gives Alcremie a total of 63 different forms. While {{shiny}} {{p|Alcremie}} all share the same base color, they can be decorated with sweets like normal.

The [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} have two forms each that change their appearance, stats, and types. Their default forms are both called Hero of Many Battles, while in {{pkmn|battle}}, Zacian becomes Crowned Sword Zacian if holding its [[Rusted Sword]], while Zamazenta becomes Crowned Shield Zamazenta if holding its signature [[Rusted Shield]]. Similar to {{p|Xerneas}}, Zacian and Zamazenta will appear in their Hero of Many Battles form outside of battle even if they are holding their signature items, such as when the player is {{pkmn|Camp}}ing.

|}

===Eternatus===
During the climax of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the player confronts a powered-up version of {{p|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 has the highest base stats of any form of Pokémon to date, and is currently unobtainable by the player.

==Form-like transformations==
Some Pokémon have transformations that may resemble forms and have official names, but they do not register as discrete forms in the Pokédex.

===Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem===
{{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, [[#Kyurem|White Kyurem, and Black Kyurem]] enter Overdrive mode when their emotions surge, lighting parts of their bodies in flames or electricity in the process. Reshiram and Zekrom enter Overdrive mode when using their [[signature move]]s ({{m|Fusion Flare}} and {{m|Blue Flare}} for Reshiram, {{m|Fusion Bolt}} and {{m|Bolt Strike}} for Zekrom) and are usually not in Overdrive mode otherwise. Black and White Kyurem, however, are always in Overdrive mode in battle.

===Solgaleo and Lunala===
{{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}} enter special phases when using their powers, shining brighter than normal. Solgaleo's phase is called the Radiant Sun phase, while Lunala's is the Full Moon phase. They both enter this phase while in [[Ultra Space]] (although not while in battle) or when using their signature moves. For Solgaleo, these moves are {{m|Sunsteel Strike}} and {{m|Searing Sunraze Smash}}; for Lunala, these are {{m|Moongeist Beam}} and {{m|Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom}}.

===Marshadow===
When {{p|Marshadow}} attacks or becomes worked up, the flames on its body flare green. This transformation is called Zenith Marshadow.<ref>[https://www.pokemoncenter.com/marshadow-pok%C3%A9mon-pins-%282-pack%29-710-03023 Marshadow Pokémon Pins (2-Pack) | Pokemon Center]</ref>

==In other games==
===Pokémon Shuffle===
{{main|List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number}}
In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], Pokémon with different forms have different [[Skill]]s and can have different Attack Powers and max levels.

Most Pokémon with forms in the core series games also have those forms in Pokémon Shuffle. Many Pokémon have a "Winking" form, notably including most of the [[starter Pokémon]]. There are also a few Pokémon with a "Spooky" or "Holiday" form. Pikachu has a large variety of forms, mostly unique to Pokémon Shuffle.

===Pokémon GO===
{{split|{{redlink|Form differences in Pokémon GO}}}}
All forms in {{g|GO}} are determined at the time of capture and cannot be changed. Although every species has one [[Pokédex]] entry each, a Pokémon is considered different from any of its alternate forms; this means that even if a player has one form of the Pokémon species registered in the Pokédex, an alternate form will still appear as a silhouette in the Nearby screen, and receiving one in a [[trade]] will be considered a Special Trade.

====Event Pokémon====
'''Event Pokémon''', originally known as '''Costume Pokémon''', are special forms that have appeared during various events for a limited time. These forms feature an otherwise-normal Pokémon with an event-relevant costume. Some Event Pokémon can potentially be {{pkmn2|Shiny}} as well or know event-exclusive [[move]]s. Event forms can evolve and retain the costume after doing so. Event forms do not appear in the [[Pokédex]] of Pokémon GO, but are still treated differently in terms of Pokédex registration. Since event Pokémon are unique to Pokémon GO, they cannot be transferred to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].

====={{p|Squirtle}}=====
Squirtle wearing sunglasses was made available during the Squirtle [[Community Day]] as a reward for completing event-exclusive [[Field Research]] tasks.

For certain global events, Pikachu wearing corresponding costumes became available in the wild at increased spawn rates, and {{p|Pichu}} wearing the same costumes could be hatched from {{pkmn|Egg}}s received during the same period.

Only one pattern is available worldwide at any time and the pattern rotates periodically. Pattern 9 specifically was made available exclusively for the 2019 Valentine's Day Event. Since July 2019, Spinda has a possibility of being {{pkmn2|Shiny}}, with the Shiny forms' spot patterns being slightly different from their normal counterparts.

====Castform====
While the current weather affects which form of Castform may spawn, unlike in other games they are locked to that form once caught. Additionally, even a change in weather will not affect previously-spawned Castform.

** Original Color {{p|Magearna}}, which is currently only found in the code for the Generation VII games.

Talk:Pokémon Sword and Shield

Flicky: /* Indeedee */ new section

== Region speculation ==
It's been a few hours, and there's been plenty of speculation as to the region's influence. I assume nothing about the region should be added unless official? [[User:Bwburke94|bwburke94]] ([[User talk:Bwburke94|talk]]) 19:45, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

== Time of direct ==

Since the page is protected, can somebody change the time from 9 pm JST to the correct time of 11 pm JST? [[User:Arctic|Arctic]] ([[User talk:Arctic|talk]]) 21:09, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

== Fixes needed ==

"Pokémon Sword and Shield take place in the Galar region, this region has many diverse environments for the player to explore, alongside the cities and towns dotted throughout the land, these include plains, forests, snowy mountains and caves." - This is a comma splice. Replace the first comma with a period: "Pokémon Sword and Shield take place in the Galar region. This region has many diverse environments for the player to explore, alongside the cities and towns dotted throughout the land, these include plains, forests, snowy mountains and caves.".

"As well as the return of Gym's to the main series," - Never use an apostrophe to denote a plural: "As well as the return of Gyms to the main series,". {{unsigned|MrMoustache}}

… then why does it still have the {{template|Upcoming notice}} template call on top? No one can right now add rumours, speculations, spam, etc. to the page - thus no need for the notice to warn about editing the article without first checking sources, because the page is protected from editing by non-admins, and admins here do not speculate or spam (that is, as long as no admin here becomes another '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''', of course!).

Game mascot

2019-06-15T14:32:17Z

Flicky:

{{unknown name}}
{{archives|Category:Game covers}}
{{archives|Category:Game title screens}}
The '''mascot''' of a {{pkmn|games|Pokémon game}} is the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that appears on the boxart—and often label—of that game.

Early on, the mascot of a game was not necessarily relevant plot-wise, and did not have to be even met to complete the game. [[Generation III]] (with the exception of the [[Generation I]] [[remake]]s) began the trend of the game mascot being mandatory to encounter in order to progress the plot, and more recent games even force the player to catch the mascot to continue. Game mascot Pokémon are often given increased [[catch rate]]s and the ability to respawn if they are defeated in order to account for this. All game mascots are [[Legendary Pokémon]] except for games where the player starts in [[Kanto]], which feature a [[starter Pokémon]] instead.

In general, only [[core series]] games have mascots, as most [[Spin-off Pokémon games|side series and spin-off games]] display multiple Pokémon on their box covers and so none of them qualify as mascots. The only current exceptions to this are [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] and {{ga|Detective Pikachu}}.

In most games, when pressing A or Start on the title screen the game mascot's [[Cry]] will be heard.

{{outdated|needs=list of abilities SM-onwards; a way to display the old Ability simbol (Prior to SM) }}
[[File:TCGAbilityIcon.png|right|thumb|150px|Ability symbol SM-onwards]]
'''Ability''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|特性|とくせい}}''' ''ability'') is a special mechanics in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], named after [[Ability|the analogous element]] in the main series games. It may be held by any type of {{TCG|Pokémon}} cards

Abilities are additional effects that the card's player can trigger once or multiple times during their turn, before they attack, or that are always active during the game. For example: {{TCG ID|Boundaries Crossed|Keldeo-EX|49}} has an Ability that allows the player to switch Keldeo-EX with the Active Pokémon, once per turn; {{TCG ID|Sun & Moon|Alolan Muk|58}} has an Ability that blocks other Pokémon's Abilities and is active always, until Alolan Muk is no longer in play.

With the release of {{TCG|Black & White}}, Abilities replaced {{TCG|Pokémon Power}}s and their successors {{TCG|Poké-Power}}s and {{TCG|Poké-Body|Poké-Bodies}} as well.

With the release of {{TCG|Sun & Moon}}, Ability symbol has been updated with a new one with red background and white text.

Black out

2019-04-20T11:04:52Z

Flicky: /* When running out of usable Pokémon */ not a misspelling, just an alternate spelling

:''If you were looking for TCG theme deck, see [[Blackout (TCG)]].''
:''For the glitch screen, see {{DL|Glitch screen|Blackout}}.''
----
[[File:Black Out VII.png|300px|thumb|Blacking out from a wild battle in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon}}]]
The player will '''black out''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|目の前が真っ暗になる|めのまえがまっくらになる}}}}''' ''lose hope'', lit. ''plunge into darkness'') when all the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on the player's team [[Fainting|faint]]. In the [[Generation]] {{gen|II}} and {{gen|III}} games (in Western release), or the Generation II games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} (in Japanese releases), the player will instead '''white out''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|目の前が真っ白になる|めのまえがまっしろになる}}}}''' ''plunge into white''), although there is no difference from blacking out.

This is comparable to a {{wp|game over}} screen for the [[Pokémon games]]. It generally occurs in {{pkmn|battle}} but it can also occur in the overworld due to the effects of {{status|poison}} prior to [[Generation IV]].

==Effects==
===Core series===
The player will lose a sum of [[Pokémon Dollar|money]]. In {{pkmn|Trainer}} battles, the money will be paid to the winner, but in battles with [[wild Pokémon]], the money will be dropped in panic. Before [[Generation IV]], half of the money on hand was lost and this loss was not explicitly stated to the player. In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} and Generation IV onward, however, the money lost depends on the level of the player's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and the number of [[Badge]]s he/she has earned. In these games, the player receives a message about how much was lost. Prior to Generation VI, the Pokémon will not be given the opportunity to evolve if player blacks out.

Furthermore, the player will rush back to the last visited [[Pokémon Center]] to restore their Pokémon's health. This will not occur in special occasions such as the player's initial battle as a Trainer in [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Red, Blue]], {{v2|Yellow}}, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, LeafGreen]], {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Black, White]], [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2, White 2]], or in [[Pokémon battle|Link Battles]] and facilities of the [[Battle Frontier]]. In FireRed, LeafGreen, and from Generation IV and on, a cutscene plays featuring a description of the player's rush back to the Pokémon Center and protecting the [[party]] from harm. If the player blacks out during a [[Sky Battle]] but still has usable Pokémon in their party which were ineligible for the battle, they will not be returned to a Pokémon Center.

If a Pokémon Center has not been used at all before the party has fainted, the player's [[mother]] will revive the party and remark about stocking up on [[Potion]]s.

{{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Pokémon Storage System healthy party deposit|A glitch}} in [[Generation I]] causes a black out to occur in the overworld and without {{status|poison}}ed Pokémon by storing all party Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] except for the ones that have [[Fainting|fainted]].

====Formula for money lost====
{{main|Prize money}}
In the [[Generation I]] games, [[Generation II]] games, and {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, the amount of money lost is simply half of the money the player has. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen}}, and all games from Generation IV onwards, the money lost is calculated using the following formula:
{{-}}
[[File:Money lost formula.png]]

Where ''Level'' is the level of the player's highest-level Pokémon and ''Base payout'' is looked up using the appropriate table below.

{{-}}

For example, if the player has seven Badges and loses a battle with only a Level 96 {{p|Venusaur}} in their party, {{pdollar}}9600 will be lost. The minimum amount of money that the player can lose is {{pdollar}}8 (if the Pokémon with the highest level in the player's party is level 1 and the player has 0 Badges; 1×8=8), while the maximum is {{pdollar}}12000 (if the Pokémon with the highest level in the player's party is level 100 and the player has 8 Badges or the Island Challenge Completion stamp; 100×120=12000).

If the player is currently holding less money than the amount calculated, they will simply lose all their money when they black out.

===Side series===
In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], the amount of money lost when the player whites out is half of the money the player has. The player will respawn at the last visited Pokémon Center, or in the [[Outskirt Stand]] if a Pokémon Center has not been used.

In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], the amount of money lost when the player whites out is {{pdollar}}16 × the level of the player's highest-level Pokémon. The player will respawn in a spot in the current location; for example, the player respawns at the entrance to the grounds if the player whites out at [[Kaminko's House]], while the player respawns in Acri's house if the player whites out in [[Gateon Port]].

==Quotes==

===When running out of usable Pokémon===
[[Generation I]] - {{gen|III}}{{sup/3|RSE}}: ''"[Trainer] is out of usable/useable Pokémon! [Trainer] blacked/whited out!"''

[[Generation III]]{{sup/3|FRLG}} - {{gen|V}}: ''"[Trainer] is out of usable Pokémon! [Trainer] panicked and lost {{pdollar}}XX,XXX.../[Trainer] dropped {{pdollar}}XX,XXX in panic!'' or ''Player lost against XXX XXXX!

{{samename|character of the day in [[SS036]]|Jan (SS036)}}
[[File:Jan.png|thumb|250px|Jan]]
'''Jan''' (Japanese: '''ジャン''' ''Jan'') is a [[character of the day]] who appeared in ''[[EP067|The Pi-Kahuna]]''.

Jan was a surfer active 40 years before the events of the episode, and was highly revered. His claim to fame was becoming the first person to have ever ridden a gigantic wave, called Humungadunga (Japanese: ビッグ・チューズデー ''Big Tuesday''), to the top of a rock in the ocean and plant his flag there. He had given his old surfboard to {{OBP|Victor|EP067}}—who idolized him—before heading off to surf around the world.

Victor maintained a personal connection to Jan, who aimed to plant his own flag atop the steep rock while riding Humungadunga. After succeeding, he kept the tradition alive by reiterating Jan's own words to encourage some budding surfers on the beach.

==Trivia==
* Jan's name, along with Puka and Victor's Japanese names (Michael and Vincent respectively), are a reference to Hollywood actor {{wp|Jan-Michael Vincent}}, the lead actor of the movie {{wp|Big Wednesday}}, from which their episode takes inspiration.

Talk:Days of the week

2018-02-15T20:32:36Z

Flicky: /* Top template not working */ new section

what about drifloon apearing of fridays in gen IV?--[[User:Kittenchild|Kittenchild]] 19:10, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

It's on there --[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy512]] 19:11, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

....sorry I should have re-read it first.--[[User:Kittenchild|Kittenchild]] 19:16, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Is there an article or a section about things which you can do once a day but can do again once midnight rolls over (Berry Master handing out a free berry, Veilstone girl offering a massage, etc)? If there's not, I can start putting one together... [[User:Recalcitrancy|Recalcitrancy]] 14:30, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

:And the rival battle on a Monday when the time rolls over from Sunday and you stay in the same area. -- [[User:HechEff|HechEff]] 14:54, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

==Order of the days==
In the ISO 8601 Monday is described to be the first day of the week as an international standard so should it not be reflected here as well?
[[User:Morri|Morri]] 16:34, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

== HGSS ==

So what're we gonna do about it. It's likely to have the same events as Gen II. Copying or putting Gen II/HGSS? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:21, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
:I'll have to say copying it into Gen IV section. {{tt|But I'm always wrong|ain't I TTE}}.--[[User:Clarky13|'''Clarky''']][[User talk:Clarky13|'''13''']] 07:37, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

== Every Day ==

I suggest we add either a section to this article or a new article that chronicles events that happen Every Day. I have looked but I cannot find one on the wiki. The Time article is mainly concerned with the visual effects of time, and doesn't mention any specific events. I think a section in this article would be handy because then we could have all the time based events in one place. It'd certainly be nice to have all the gym leader registration information for HGSS in one place, because popping back and forth between articles to figure out who is on a specific day and who can be registered on any day is a total pain. [[User:Darien Shields|Darien Shields]] 12:26, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
:Isn't that what the current page setup is? —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 23:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
::No? The current page seems to list things that happen on specific days. But there are also events that take place every day of the week. For instant, Brock's pokégear registration isn't listed here because it doesn't occur on a specific day. You can do it on any day between noon and three in the afternoon. As far as I can tell no events like that are on the page... [[User:Darien Shields|Darien Shields]] 00:29, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:::If it happens on every day of the week, then I don't think it needs to be mentioned on a page specific to days of the week. >_> it can just be mentioned elsewhere. (using your example, Brock's PokeGear registration could be just put on Brock's page, since it doesn't matter what day you get it, just the time). --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 00:31, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
::::Oh, so that's what you meant by "every day". Gotcha. Like ZC said, we don't need a page listing what you can do every single day. That would basically be summarizing the whole game, because most tasks and quests can be done on any day. It's the events that only happen once out of every seven that are unique, and require mention here. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:23, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:::::How many events vary by time but not day? If there are enough it may be worth creating a list or at least a section on the main time article. However I do think that such a section would not belong on this page.--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 10:33, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
::::::Off the top of my head I can think of three events that varie by time but not day- registering Brock, registering Jasmine, and getting a massage from Blue's sister in Palette. That's the sort of event I was talking about, sorry, I really failed to make myself clear. Events that occur based on time of day, but not the actual day. It wouldn't include the whole game since stuff like challenging the Elite Four has nothing to do with the time of day, if you catch my drift. The reason I suggested adding that content to this page was because it'd be incredibly useful to have one page that lists all the things like gym leader registration time. Admittedly time based event that don't apply to specific days of the week should probably go in a different place. Maybe [[Time]]? [[User:Darien Shields|Darien Shields]] 13:29, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:::::::If this is primarily about Pokégear registration, I've put a new section on the [[Pokégear]] page and am slowly filling it in. If you wish, try making a section on the Time article. We'll see how it goes. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 20:38, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
::::::::I would second the creation of some time of page, be it here on this page or elsewhere, which chronicles "events" which take place at a specific time. I would also appreciate it if we made a list somewhere that tracks events which can be done once per day, such as the Berry Master in DP, as an example --[[User:Mewmor|Mewmor]] 21:52, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
I have created a [[User:Beligaronia/Sandbox|sandbox]] with all the events I could think of. This could either be added as a section to the Time article or its own article if more is added. Needs some work so feel free to edit it.–[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 22:28, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
:That article seems to be focused on things that happen at particular times every day. Would it also be appropriate to add things like the Lottery which happen every day, but not at a particular time?--[[User:Delecti|Delecti]] 02:13, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

== Link to current day? ==

In the intro section, it currently says
<pre>It is currently {{#time: l}} (UTC).</pre>
Would it be a good idea to add a link there to the section that applies to the current day? For example,
<pre>It is currently [[Days of the week#{{#time: l}}|{{#time: l}}]] (UTC).</pre>
seems to work when I preview it, but I don't know if that sort of syntax would cause problems, or if there's some better way to go about it, or what.

I just thought that this would make it easier for people who come to the page thinking, "what's going on in my game today, again?" (I personally do this often. :P) Much less scrolling and all. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 16:19, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

== Silver in HGSS ==

Okay, for events, like on Monday, where it says Silver can be battled at Indigo Plateau, once you've battled him can he be rebattled a week later? I can't seem to find him anywhere, so I'm thinking probably not. If that's the case, it's probably worth pointing out in the article? --[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 17:30, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
:: Nevermind, figured it out. After the first time, you have to do the tag battle in the dragon's den before he'll battle you again (in Indigo Plateau).--[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 15:42, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

== thursday ==

I registered Whitney at daytime during Thursday at goldenrod department store... could someone clarify the time that she will appear on that day??? [[User:wisp82|wisp82]] 02:43, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

== "Evening?" ==

I have noticed that in HGSS, gym leaders who can be rechallenged in the evening cannot be called from 8:00pm to 3:59am the following morning, but from 12:00am-3:59am or from 8:00pm to 11:59pm on the day specified. This clarification should be made somewhere.--[[User:Mewmor|Mewmor]] 21:56, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

== HGSS Leaders ==

I noticed that there are a few Gym Leaders that aren't on the registration list. Could somebody please add the missing Leaders? [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 13:58, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
:Which ones? I believe some aren't day specific. [[User:Turtwig A|Turtwig's]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A-B-Cs]] ([[User talk:Turtwig A|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|contribs]]) 14:00, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

== Gen V ==
Are there no day specific events in gen V? I guess since they have season specific events now... [[User:Felinoel|felinoel]] 08:42, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

== New method of sorting? ==

Would it be OK of adding (or changing) the method of sorting so that the generations are grouped separately from one another, and then are further sorted into the days of the week? The way it currently works is the opposite, where the days of the week take precedence over the generations.

For example (my concept):

''Gen II - Gold/Silver/Crystal:

Sunday - <Sunday's events>
Monday - <Monday's events>
Tuesday - ...
Wednesday - ...
Thursday - ...
Friday - ...

Gen III - Ruby/Emerald/Sapphire:

Sunday - <Sunday's events>
Monday - ...
Tuesday - ...

Gen IV:

<days and respective events>

Gen V:

<days and respective events>
''

It would be much more effective to find all the events pertaining to the specific game you are playing this way instead of having to go to the current day and and going through all the other games that currently don't pertain to you. --[[User:Nicknick|Nicknick]] 20:35, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
:I would be 100% behind this change. Besides making it easier for people who want to use it as a guide for their game, it would also make it easier for people to compare the weekly events from a particular game to each other in the interest of pure reference. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 00:17, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
::I'm happy with that change. The sooner the better. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 08:50, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
:::Yes, I think that is a great idea. [[Time]] does in the suggested way too. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 09:01, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
::::Done (heh, I'm new here but fortunately had the same thoughts you guys did; went ahead and did it after reading this archive.) However, just noting that there seem to be quite a few things that can be shortened further - for instance, rather than listing "Person X is handing out Y" seven times, it'd be better to list the person once followed by bullet points as to what they hand out each day. I'm not sure how cluttered that might make the page though. I may mess around with it later. zedadex 17:46, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
:::::How can [[Template:Dotw]] link to the correct position? --[[User:847418742|847418742]]/[[User talk:847418742|Nick:Togekiss of Moon]] 12:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

== Template:Sup/t ==

It isn't working right. It's only linking to Gen II events. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 01:33, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

== Daily events? ==

Is there an article for daily events? If not, I would say we should make one. To provide a list if weekly events but not daily events makes Bulbapedia feels incomplete to me. [[User:Ericss|Ericss]] ([[User talk:Ericss|talk]]) 08:12, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

== On ORAS section ==

It seems to be complete. Should we keep the incomplete tag? [[User:Trainer Yusuf|Trainer Yusuf]] ([[User talk:Trainer Yusuf|talk]]) 10:31, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

== Top template not working ==

It's saying it's Wednesday UTC when it's currently Thursday. --[[User:Flicky|Fli]][[User talk:Flicky|cky]][[Special:Contributions/Flicky|1991]] 20:32, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

'''Fossil''' (Japanese: '''化石の秘密''' ''Mystery of the Fossils'') is the name given to the third expansion of cards and {{TCG|Theme Deck}}s for the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] in both America and Japan.

==Information==
*The English version of Fossil was originally planned to be released around January 2000 (based on original {{TCG|Jungle}} estimates). But because Jungle was pushed ahead, Fossil was pushed ahead as well.
*[[Wizards of the Coast]] once again increased the set size by producing holographic and non-holographic versions of the rare cards; however, they removed the {{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Mew|8}} card that was in the Japanese set. Mew would later reappear as {{TCG|Wizards Black Star Promos}} #8 (non-holographic) and #9 (holographic).
*Fossil completed the transition of the first 150 Pokémon (151 in Japan with the inclusion of Mew, whereas Mew would be a promo card in the English version) to card form. Base Set, Jungle and Fossil totaled 158 Pokémon, meaning 8 Pokémon were present in two expansions : Pikachu and Electrode were both in Base Set and in Jungle, while Gastly, Haunter, Magmar, Magneton, Raichu and Zapdos appeared both in Base Set and in Fossil.
* The Unlimited Fossil release in Australia used red lettering for the work "Pokemon" instead of yellow on the Booster Box, Booster Packs, and Theme Decks. This was to help fight counterfeiting.
* The {{TCG|Prerelease cards}} for this set is Aerodactyl. There is a gold and a brown version.
* A strategy guide for this expansion was released: the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Fossil Expansion Player's Guide]]. Additionally, the {{TCG|Team Rocket Strategy Guide}} published by [[Wizards of the Coast]] also contains coverage of the Fossil expansion.
*Of all English-released sets, Fossil has the smallest amount of cards.
*Like Jungle, this set provided evolutions of Pokemon introduced previously such as Hypno, Gengar, Sandslash, and Dragonite.

== Forum Links ==

I've noticed that the forums moved to a new address and because of that, the links to the old forums on the bottom of many pages don't work and clicking on it just leads to the message that says the address was changed to the current one. Shouldn't we fix this and is there anyway that I can help with this? --[[User:Willyh106|Willyh106]] ''([[User talk:Willyh106|Talk]])’’ 14:23, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
:Could you give some examples? We've updated several templates, but it's possible there are some we missed. Also, if there are a group of pages with manual links, it would be useful to know so we can organize for them to be relinked en-mass. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 16:23, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
::One example I just thought of was the "May Club" link on [[May (anime)|this page]]. It is an old, closed thread, but it worked fine and I was able to look at it without any problems before the forum changed its address. I think I saw more and some more examples I can think of are links like the "Rules" link at the [[Bulbagarden forums]] page itself and also the link to the "AdvanceShipping Nation" on the [[AdvanceShipping]] page too. I think that even if it is a tedious task, if we change all the old BMGf links to the current ones, people will have a more pleasant experience with gathering more info and we'll be able to avoid some possible confusion. Thank you for considering my suggestion. --[[User:Willyh106|Willyh106]] ''([[User talk:Willyh106|Talk]])’’ 17:05, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

== McAfee ==

Whenever I visit the [[Crasher Wake]] page, McAfee gives me a warning that a malicious site is ahead.
No matter how many times I try again, it keeps blocking me. Just the Crasher Wake page, somehow.
Is there anyone who can explain why and tell me if the owner(s) of Bulbapedia can fix it?{{unsigned|Kyleallt}}

== I'm sorry ==

I've just made my account recently and I am so hyped at the idea of contributing to the wiki. I have been most of the time wrong with my edits, additions or any other things. I just wanted to say that I was sorry and that I am just trying to help. I mean no harm to the website or anyone here, you are all awesome! Keep it up! [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 02:20, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

== Need help from a french-native? ==

== Unidentified CD ==

Hey guys, I was looking st my Pokémon collection to see if there was anything to add to the wiki, and I found a CD which apparently has no name. It's a Gold and Silver CDROM which includes movies trailers, soundtracks, wallpapers and etc. I have searched in the CD section, and I haven't found it. Any help?

== Underleveled Pokémon ==

The recent addition from The Hidden Ninja about his lvl 4 Kakuna gave me an idea! :O
What about we create a page that regroups a list of every underleveled Pokémon ever found in the games? That is a pretty interesting thing to me. Knowing that a Pokémon evolves at Lvl X but was seen already evolved at level X - Y is pretty interesting, indeed. What do you guys think? [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 19:45, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

== Massive and enraging grammar issue! ==

I've been editing anime and manga plots tonight, and most of my edits were undone because ''"they contained more grammar mistakes than before."''

Hear me out, when you are talking about a group of person, the subject is 3rd person singular.

Examples:

*Team Rocket ''is'' (NOT ARE) tired. ''It'' (NOT THEY) must rest a bit.
*The group ''searches'' (NOT SEARCH) for a place where ''it'' (NOT THEY) can stay the night.
*Team Rocket ''bumps'' (NOT BUMP) into Red.

Then, as far as I know, it's not the Trainer who uses a move, but the Pokémon itself.

Examples:

*Red sends out Poliwhirl and ''makes him use'' (NOT USES) Water Gun.

Having my hard-worked edits reverted when I know for a fact that I am right, made me legit mad.

I just want to help, so next time, can you either look up why I did this, or just ask me before you undo it all? Thanks. [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 06:54, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:To be frank, expressing your anger like this won't earn you any points. You're welcome to debate the merits of your edits, but try to keep a bit more of a level head about it.
:That said, in most particular, the main page talk page really is not a very appropriate place to raise the question of your personal edits. Use the talk page for a page you were reverted on or use the other person's talk page.
:And I think I'll leave it there. If this is brought up in a more appropriate place, I'd be glad to comment as well as I can. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 07:18, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

::Me being "mad" (I wasn't really, it was just to illustrate my feeling of demotivation) is not the point I want to talk about, neither is my personal edits. The point is to inform editors about this important yet basic rule of english. The fact that (my) edits got deleted for this reason is just unexplainable. I wrote this on the main page to inform as much people as possible about this so that future edits can be better with a better level of english. [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 07:27, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:::That's partially opinion. And ''that'' should be hashed out in, again, a more appropriate place.
:::In short: give other people a chance to explain themselves before running off entirely on your own assumptions. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 07:32, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Grammar such as -Team Rocket ''is'' (NOT ARE) tired. ''It'' (NOT THEY) must rest a bit.-, while technically not incorrect, is highly unnatural. In normal English, when talking about a group of people and their actions, we tend to refer to the people within that group instead of the group as a singular.
-They search- is far more natural than "It searches", as in this case we are referring to a concrete action carried out by the members of the group, and not the group distinct from said members.
Any writing style guide will tell you not to say "it" when referring to a small or undefined group.
With regards to the trainer "using" techniques, either would be acceptable. This is simply a case of whether one wishes to emphasise the will of the trainer or not.--[[User:Montegue|Montegue]] ([[User talk:Montegue|talk]]) 16:10, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

== Generation 7 ==

I just heard two new Pokémon games, Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, have been confirmed by Nitendo. This will probably be Generation 7, should there be something on Bulbapedia already? [[User:Danny199|Danny199]] ([[User talk:Danny199|talk]]) 17:44, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
:We already have this information: [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] and [[Generation VII]]. --[[User:Carmenstar97|Carmen★]] ''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|(Talk |]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|contribs)]]'' 17:47, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

==Spanish?==

I know that we have a Italian page, but can we add a Spanish? There's a lot of people that speak it, and I think we'd need it.
Honestly, I don't know if you guys will accept this, but I have a lot of friends that speak Spanish and like Pokemon. It's just my opinion, and honestly I think it would we easy to translate.
Anyway, please think about it and give me reason why/ why not to have it, thanks!

:[[Pokéteca|We did]] but they went under as an independent wiki, and came back as a [http://es.poketeca.wikia.com/wiki/Wiki_Pok%C3%A9teca wikia].

== Pronounciation ==

Because Pokemon has officially revealed the pronounciations with the Deluxe Pokemon Handbook, could we put official pronounciation as a part of pages to calm down the rabid fanbase? {{unsigned|Theexploringgamer}}
:There are cases where different official sources have used differing pronunciations. That sort of problem is a big reason we're not likely to be putting pronunciations on Pokemon pages. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:23, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
::The reason I ask is because it's the MOST RECENT pronounciation that they've confirmed. The only change was Arceus, and they established why they changed that one. [[User:Theexploringgamer|Theexploringgamer]] ([[User talk:Theexploringgamer|talk]]) 14:09, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

== Improve for mobile users! ==

I use my iPad more than my laptop and the interface for the wiki seems fit for computers rather than mobile devices. That got me thinking, maybe you guys should try developing an app for mobile users! The editing and browsing could be easier! Just a suggestion.--[[User:Grass4Lyfe|Grass4Lyfe]] ([[User talk:Grass4Lyfe|talk]]) 06:35, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

== Set up donations ==

Bulbapedia, you need to set up some sort of donations button and put it on the sidebar of the site, to cut back on the sheer number of ads--any page I try to load takes up to 2 minutes to load and it lags out my computer. Other wikis like TFWiki.net have a donations bar, and in that case, anyone who really wants to support this site will donate to help keep it afloat--you can still keep ads to make an assured revenue, but cut it down severely. There's like 10 ads on a single page, that's crazy.

Please consider what I'm saying if you haven't already. If you do already have donations, please also put it on the sidebar. There is no shame in asking for donations to help this beautiful website. [[User:Titanollante|Titanollante]] ([[User talk:Titanollante|talk]]) 04:46, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
:If you have a Bulbapedia account and stay logged in, you won't see any ads. It's not a perfect solution, but it might help you if the staff don't follow your suggestion. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 05:13, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

== Type specific items ==

An idea for an area in the types page, for example Flame plate in the fire type.--Pokemonfansuper 13:33, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

== "?????" and other links redirecting to here ==

I've noticed that if I try to go to a page by editing the link, some "pages", like "?????" and "??????????" redirect here. Why does that happen? --[[User:Aaay|Aaay]] ''([[User talk:Aaay|TalK]])'' 07:53, 27 December 2016 (UTC)

Actually, I think I might know what's happening: Having a question mark in the title of a page means that everything after the question mark is data that should be sent to the page. So, in this case, it's saying "go to the link http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/" (that is the main page) "and give the website the information ????", and that information is not used. {{unsigned|Aaay}}
:Yeah, that's what would be happening. However, this should only occur if you directly modify the URL; wiki links such as [[?????]] and [[??????????]] go to the correct pages. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 09:55, 27 December 2016 (UTC)

== Final battle page ==

This is a kind of proposition for a page. I don't know whether it should be a page or not so I'm posting my idea here to see if it's okay or not.

My idea is to make a "Final battle" page, basically a page that details the battle required to enter the hall of fame/see the credits. I know this sounds a lot like the Champion page but my idea was it would be more gameplay-focused and it would have some different people.

It could have the teams of the champions, both the initial battle and if there is a rematch, the rematch team. For the Black and White section it would have Ghetsis for the initial battle and Alder for the rematch team. For Sun and Moon it would have Kukui for the initial teams and all the other possible position keeping teams for the rematch.

Is this an idea that would fit the wiki? Should I start making this? ----[[User:Celadonkey|Celadonkey]] 18:02, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Does it need to be playing with sound on loading the page...? --[[User:Flicky|Fli]][[User talk:Flicky|cky]][[Special:Contributions/Flicky|1991]] 19:03, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

'''Cursed Body''' (Japanese: '''のろわれボディ''' ''Cursed Body'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation V]]. Six {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can have this Ability, all of which are {{t|Ghost}} types.

==Effect==
===In battle===
If the Pokémon with this Ability is hit by an opponent's damaging move, Cursed Body has a 30% chance of {{m|Disable|disabling}} that move for 3 turns (including the turn Cursed Body activates). Cursed Body can activate even if the attacker is behind a {{m|substitute}} or if the Pokémon with Cursed Body is knocked out, but will not activate if the Pokémon with Cursed Body is behind a substitute. If Cursed Body disables a [[multi-strike move]] before it has finished all of its hits, it will not prevent the other hits from being executed.

===Outside of battle===
Cursed Body has no effect outside of battle.

Move

2016-09-03T16:37:59Z

Flicky: /* Trivia */

[[File:Water Shuriken.png|thumb|right|256px|{{m|Water Shuriken}} used against {{p|Delphox}}]]
A '''move''' (Japanese: '''わざ''' ''move''), also known as an '''attack''' (Japanese: '''こうげきわざ''' ''attack technique'') or '''technique''' (Japanese: '''とくしゅわざ''' ''special technique''), is the skill Pokémon primarily use in battle. In battle, a Pokémon uses one move each turn. Some moves (including those learned by [[HM|Hidden Machine]]) can be used [[Field move|outside of battle]] as well, usually for the purpose of removing obstacles or exploring new areas.

==In the core series==
===Characteristics of moves===
A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time, which are drawn from a pool of 621 total moves. However, no single Pokémon has access to each move; all 721  Pokémon have a given movelist with a limited amount of moves that relate to the type and concept of the species. The amount of moves in each movelist varies between species: some Pokémon, such as {{p|Ditto}} and {{p|Unown}}, only have one move to learn, while {{p|Mew}} can learn 179 moves as of Generation VI, and {{p|Smeargle}} can learn {{m|Struggle|almost}} {{m|Chatter|any}} {{m|Crafty Shield|move}} via {{m|Sketch}}. Sometimes, Pokémon's movelists vary between [[evolution]]ary relatives. This often is tied to a secondary [[type]] gained or lost on evolution, but can also provide incentive to prevent a Pokémon's evolution to a higher stage. Most trios and duos have similar movelists.

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

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

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

A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time. In order to learn new moves once four have been learned, it must forget one old move for every new move. Some moves cannot be forgotten naturally, such as moves learned by HM. To remove these, a Trainer must incorporate the help of a [[Move Deleter]]. Moves that were available at an earlier level that the Pokémon does not currently know can be learned with the help of a [[Move Reminder]].

In [[Generation I]] only, moves learned via level-up won't be learned if a Pokémon gains enough EXP Points to "skip" the level on which they are learned, while in [[Generation II]] they were learned after leveling up. Since [[Generation III]], they are learned while the Pokémon levels up.

===Unique moves===
Some Pokémon have moves specific to themselves or their evolutionary line. These unique moves are known as [[signature move]]s. Some of these moves are powerful moves that only certain Legendary Pokémon can learn, but other moves serve to highlight game mechanics or create unusual effects. One example is {{p|Smeargle}}'s {{m|Sketch}}, which allows it to learn almost every conceivable move (except {{m|Chatter}}).

==In other games==
{{incomplete|section|Appropriate details for other games (Rumble games, Trozei games, Battrio/Tretta games?)}}
===In the Mystery Dungeon series===
{{main|Mystery Dungeon game mechanics#Attacks|Mystery Dungeon game mechanics → Attacks}}
In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], Pokémon can learn and use up to four moves much like in the core series games. When Pokémon level up, they learn the same moves as they would in a contemporaneous core series game. However, all Pokémon also have a basic attack (called a regular attack) that they can use that does not require [[Power Point|PP]]. The regular attack can be used any time, but the player can only use one of their character's learned moves at a time, depending on which move they've "set". Other Pokémon in the player's party will use their learned moves at their own discretion, but the player is able to set or unset any number of their moves to partially control what they do as well.

Two to four moves can also be [[linked move|linked]] so that they can be executed all at once, in a single turn. Defeating an enemy with a linked move will boost the resulting [[experience]] by 50%.

While moves have PP like in the core games, the default amount of PP for a move may be different than in the core games. Pokémon can also relearn moves at different places in the games much like the [[Move Reminder]] in the core games:
* {{gameabbrevmd|RB}}: {{DL|Pokémon Square|Gulpin Link Shop}}
* {{gameabbrevmd|TDS}}: {{DL|Treasure Town|Electivire Link Shop}}
* {{gameabbrevmd|BSL}}: Slaking Move Relearner
* {{gameabbrevmd|GTI}}: {{DL|Pokémon Paradise|Scraggy's Savvy Moves}}
* {{gameabbrevmd|SMD}}: [[Hawlucha's Slam School]]
Unlike the Move Reminder, however, these facilities can teach Pokémon any move they or their pre-evolutions can learn by leveling up.

===In the Pokémon Ranger series===
{{main|Field Move (Ranger)}}
{{main|Poké Assist}}
In the {{cat|Pokémon Ranger}} games, [[Field Move (Ranger)|Field Moves]] and [[Poké Assist]]s may be considered analogues to moves. Field Moves are used against environmental obstacles in the world, while Poké Assists are used to help [[Pokémon Ranger (Ranger series)|Rangers]] capture Pokémon with the [[Capture Styler]].

===In Pokémon Shuffle===
In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], Pokémon do not have moves, but they still [[Pokémon Shuffle#Gameplay|attack and damage each other]] so that the player can capture wild Pokémon. Effectively, every Pokémon's attack has the same basic strength.

===In Pokémon Conquest===
In [[Pokémon Conquest]], a Pokémon only has one move. As a Pokémon's [[link]] with its [[Warrior]] increases, so does its {{DL|link|move rank}}. If a Pokémon is able to achieve a Perfect Link with its Warrior and maximize its move rank, some moves will gain new effects, such as {{m|Leaf Storm}} and {{m|Outrage}}.

In contrast to the core series, the Speed {{stat|In Pokémon Conquest|stat}} does not affect when a Pokémon goes, but instead affects the accuracy of attacks, with faster Pokémon being harder to hit and better able to land attacks than slower Pokémon. Moves are also not split into physical and special categories; all moves use the attacking Pokémon's Attack and the defending Pokémon's Defense stats, and there is no Special Attack or Special Defense.

===In Pokémon GO===
In [[Pokémon GO]], moves are divided into two types: '''Fast Attacks''' (Japanese: '''ノーマルアタック''' ''normal attack'') and '''Special Attacks''' (Japanese: '''スペシャルアタック''' ''special attack''). Each individual Pokémon has one of each kind of move, randomly chosen from the moves their species can know. When a Pokémon evolves, its moves are also randomly reselected.

In a battle at a {{OBP|Gym|GO}}, the player can command a Fast Attack at any time by simply tapping their Pokémon on the screen. Special Attacks, however, can only be used when the Special Attack meter's energy has been sufficiently filled. The Special Attack meter can be seen next to the move's name on the Pokémon's summary screen or below the Pokémon's HP bar during a battle; it is a gauge divided evenly into one to five bars (depending on the move). Using a Pokémon's Special Attack requires consuming one of these bars. The meter is charged by attacking with Fast Attacks or taking damage. When a Pokémon is ready, the player can command it to use its Special Attack by holding a long-press on their Pokémon.

Despite being called Special Attacks, these moves do not do special damage; the physical/special distinction from the core games does not exist in Pokémon GO. Both Fast Attacks and Special Attacks use the attacking Pokémon's Attack and the defending Pokémon's Defense {{stat|In Pokémon GO|stats}}, and there is no Special Attack or Special Defense.

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

The process in which moves are learned is changed slightly; TMs and HMs do not seem to exist. Also, even though it's been stated in the anime that moves can be learned at certain levels, Pokémon seem to learn them more at random, and often out of sequence from the games. The term Move Tutor has never been used in the anime but there are several people in the anime that have taught Pokémon certain moves that they would not normally be able to learn. These people, such as {{an|Chaz}} and [[Clayton]], are much like Move Tutors in the games except for the fact that they do not ask for anything in return. Even {{Ash}} has taught {{AP|his|Sceptile}} {{p|Treecko}} {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Consequently, all moves learned by anime Pokémon appear to have been learned by level-up or by Move Tutor, including special Egg Moves such as {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{m|Water Gun}} was the first move used in the Pokémon Adventures manga. Since then, moves have debuted in a story arc corresponding to the [[generation]] in which the move was introduced. The exceptions are [[Generation I]]'s {{m|Roar}} which was not properly used in battle until the [[Generation II]] {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}, and {{m|Sweet Scent}}, a Generation II move which debuted in the {{chap|Yellow}}, a Generation I arc.
{{sectionstub}}

==In the TCG==
{{main|Attack (TCG)}}
In the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], {{TCG|attack}}s are similar to moves. {{TCG|Pokémon}} cards generally have only one or two attacks, but different cards of the same [[Pokémon (species)|species]] may have different attacks. The TCG also often introduces attacks that do not exist in the core series, and it [[TCG move errors|does not limit]] the attacks a Pokémon can know to those it can learn in the core series games.

==In the TFG==
In the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]], Pokémon figures have a ring around their base which is divided into colored sections, some of which are moves. Depending on the figure, Pokémon may have as few as one or as many as four moves. [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game#Spinning and battles|Battles]] are fought by spinning the Pokémon and its ring inside the base, and the section that stops under an arrow on the base determines its action in the battle (which may also be affected by the outcome of the opposing Pokémon's spin).

==Trivia==
* During an in-game [[Double Battle]], after a move is issued, if that Pokémon levels up before its in-battle turn and replaces the move currently awaiting execution with a new move, the new move will be used instead of the old one.
** In [[Generation VI]], the old move can still be used.
** Multiple turn moves such as {{m|Outrage}} will continue to be performed even if the move is deleted between turns. This can happen in both Single and Double Battles.
* In some instances in the anime, certain Pokémon have been shown to know more than just four moves at the same time, with as many as 10 being used [[Drake's Dragonite|in a single battle]]. The closest the anime has got to acknowledging the existence of move slots is the fact that {{MTR}} can't learn {{m|Pay Day}} because of the effort exerted in learning to speak human language.

Can someone confirm if this can hit a Pokémon using fly, Dig, Bounce etc. Not sure if it was just a blip in my game or me imagining things (it was 2AM in the morning) but my Staraptor used fly then the opponent use submission and it hit whilst it was "Up high" [[User:PhantomCX|PhantomCX]] 08:03, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

::Yup. Hit me while flying. Unssure of dig etc. [[User:Yleron|Yleron]] 09:52, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
so then why is it not in the article? [[User:Slowking770|Slowking770]] 06:26, 13 August 2010 (UTC)slowking770

Sounds like you encountered the (in)famous No Guard Machamp. [[User:SoItBegins|SoItBegins]] ([[User talk:SoItBegins|talk]]) 07:14, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

== Technically... ==

:"''Notably, Submission can only be learned by Generation I Pokémon in all generations, except Generation II, where Cyndaquil can learn it as an egg move.''"
Generation I Pokémon with Generation II evos could learn it as its un-evolved form in I, and then trade to II to evolve.. although only Politoed and Blissey can do this. I'm not sure how to word this on the article, though, so... HALP! D: →''[[User:Tina|'''T'''inā]]'' [[User talk:Tina|♫]][[Special:Contributions/Tina|★]] 02:09, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
:''In all generations, all Pokémon that learn Submission naturally are from a Generation I evolutionary family, with the sole exception of Cyndaquil. In Generation II, other Pokémon such as Blissey may learn this move, but only if they are traded forward with the Time Capsule prior to evolution.'' Howzat? —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 05:35, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

== Signature Move? ==

In Generation I, the only Pokemon who can learn this move via level up are Machop and its evolutions. Would that not make it a signature move, at least prior to Generation II?--[[User:Black Yin Zekrom|Black Yin Zekrom]] 06:31, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
:I don't think so, because of the TM distribution. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:37, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

== Substitute Recoil ==
In Gen VI, will there still be no recoil on this move if it breaks a substitute? [[User:SoItBegins|SoItBegins]] ([[User talk:SoItBegins|talk]]) 07:14, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
:Just tested in my copy of X, and there was recoil damage after it broke the substitute. Will note it. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 21:48, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

== Odd wording ==

I don't quite understand this part of the page:
:''If the user of Submission attacks first and faints due to recoil damage, the target will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round. However, the user will still be subject to recurrent damage.''
This makes it look like it's saying the user can receive recurrent damage if they've already fainted. I think that "However" is glossing over what conditions the second sentence is actually talking about. --[[User:Flicky|Fli]][[User talk:Flicky|cky]][[Special:Contributions/Flicky|1991]] 12:50, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

'''Struggle''' (Japanese: '''わるあがき''' ''Vain Struggle'') is a damage-dealing [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It is a [[move]] that no Pokémon naturally learns but every Pokémon can use if none of their other moves are usable, usually due to a lack of {{PP}}. Prior to [[Generation II]], it dealt {{type|Normal}} damage.

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Struggle deals damage to the opponent and the user receives [[recoil]] damage equal to ½ of the damage the attack did to the opponent. Struggle will automatically be used by a Pokémon that has no usable moves but is ordered to attack, and is not affected by any {{PP}} limitations. Struggle is capable of striking a {{DL|Damage modification|critical hit}}.

If the user of Struggle attacks first and knocks itself out due to recoil damage, the opponent will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round. If Struggle breaks a {{m|substitute}}, the user will take no recoil damage.

Struggle has 10 base PP, though no PP would ever be deducted from it. Self-inflicted recoil damage from Struggle from the previous turn can be countered if the opponent did not make a move on the following turn.

Struggle deals {{type|Normal}} damage in this Generation, meaning {{type|Rock}} Pokémon take half damage, and {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon are unaffected. If the only usable move is disabled by {{m|Disable}}, the affected Pokémon will use Struggle.

In [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|Stadium]], no recoil damage is taken if Struggle knocks out an opponent.

===Generation II===
Struggle now has a maximum of 1 PP instead of 10 (16 with PP Ups). Struggle now does typeless damage, inflicting normal damage to {{t|Steel}}-, Rock-, and Ghost-type Pokémon and being unaffected by {{STAB}}. It still displays as Normal-type if hacked onto a Pokémon's moveset.

The user will take recoil damage even if a substitute breaks.

===Generation III===
A Pokémon will still take recoil damage even if it has an Ability that would prevent it, such as {{a|Rock Head}}. Like all typeless damage moves, Struggle can hit through {{a|Wonder Guard}}. Its target is a randomly selected enemy in [[Double Battle]]s.

If a Pokémon is holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice Band}} and is affected by {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Taunt}}, {{m|Imprison}}, or {{a|Cursed Body}} such that it cannot use the move that the Choice Band forces it to, it will always use Struggle as long as the item and the effect both remain active. If a Pokémon is holding a Choice Band and is affected by {{m|Torment}}, the Pokémon will use Struggle every second turn.

===Generation IV===
The user now takes ¼ of its maximum HP as recoil damage, regardless of how much damage the attack did to the opponent.

All effects that apply with the Choice Band now also apply with all {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice items}}.

Struggle is now unaffected by modifications to the {{stat|accuracy}} stat and {{stat|evasion}} stat.

===Generation V===

Struggle is unaffected by a held {{DL|Gem|Normal Gem}} (and will not consume it).

==Description==
{{movedesc|normal}}
{{movedescentry|{{gameabbrev3|Stad}}|Used only if the user runs totally out of PP. The user is hit with {{tt|1/4|error; supposed to be 1/2}} of the damage it inflicts.}}

But it also inflicts damage on the user in the amount of 1/4 of its maximum HP.}}
{{movedescentry|{{gameabbrev3|XY}}{{gameabbrev3|ORAS}}|An attack that is used in desperation only if the user has no PP. This also damages the user a little.}}
|}
|}{{left clear}}

==Learnset==
All Pokémon can use Struggle when they cannot use any other moves, such as by them all having 0 PP, or if they are all incapacitated through any of {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Taunt}}, {{m|Torment}}, {{m|Imprison}}, {{m|Heal Block}}, {{a|Cursed Body}}, {{DL|In-battle effect item|Assault Vest}}, or {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice items}}. Also, some moves, such as {{m|Belch}}, cannot be selected unless specific conditions are met, so can also cause the Pokémon to Struggle if they are the only moves with PP.

In the Mystery Dungeon series, the only way to use Struggle is to use a set move when none of the Pokémon's moves are usable for one or another reason (like running out of PP).

==Trivia==
* Even though Struggle can only be accessed by the loss of all PP, it was given {{pkmn|Contest}}, {{pkmn|Super Contest}}, and {{pkmn|Contest|Contest Spectacular}} stats. This is most likely to prevent the game from crashing if a Pokémon is hacked to have Struggle as one of their four moves. The contest stats seem to be the defaults. In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, it has the same contest stats as {{m|Pound}}.
* Struggle is the last non-glitch move in [[index number]] order in [[Generation I]], and the last Generation I move in index number lists since then.
* Struggle is one of two moves that cannot be {{m|Sketch}}ed. The other is {{m|Chatter}}.
* In Generation I, Struggle was the only move that couldn't be used via {{m|Metronome}}, besides Metronome itself.
* Struggle has the lowest base power of all [[recoil]]-causing moves.
* Because it deals typeless damage, Struggle is the only damaging Normal-type move which can hit a {{type|Ghost}} opponent without the aid of {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, {{m|Foresight}}, or {{a|Scrappy}}.
* Along with {{m|Barrage}}, {{m|Kinesis}}, and {{m|Leech Life}}, Struggle is one of four moves originating from Generation I that has not been featured in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* Certain glitch Pokémon, including [[Generation IV hybrid]]s, [['Ng'Mp]], [['ゥ.]], and [[4, ゥァ (DD)]], can learn Struggle by level up.
* Should a player hack Struggle onto a Pokémon, it will not be displayed correctly in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]'s lab (not the case for [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|original Pokémon Stadium]]) and will be highlighted, as if it was a {{cat|Generation II moves|Generation II move}}. This does not happen when selecting a team for battle.
* In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], the move description erroneously states that Struggle inflicts recoil to the user equal to ¼ of the damage inflicted; the correct number prior to Generation IV is ½.

'''Jynx''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルージュラ''' ''Rougela'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ice|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Smoochum}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Jynx is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon that resembles a bulky woman. Jynx wears a red gown that hides its feet and has white arms with purple hands. There are golden circles on the chest area of its gown. Jynx has a purple face, pink lips, saucer-like eyes, and long blonde hair. Originally, its face was colored black, causing {{DL|Pokémon controversy|Jynx|controversy}}. Jynx is a female only species with no true male counterpart.

Jynx has a language with several cry patterns that sounds similar to human speech. However, this language has yet to be deciphered. It prefers to communicate by using dance-like movements. These rhythmic movements often cause people to dance along with it. It puts its enemies to sleep using its signature move, {{m|Lovely Kiss}}. Jynx often is found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}.

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
[[File:Jynx anime.png|left|thumb|200px|Jynx in the anime]]
Jynx first appeared in ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]''. One of [[Santa Claus]]'s Jynx was separated from him. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} helped to return the Jynx to her owner.

[[Lorelei|Prima]] owns a Jynx. She used her to send {{TRT}} flying in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]''.

A [[Nurse Joy]] in [[EP250]] owned a Jynx, rather than a {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}}. In this [[banned episodes|banned episode]], {{an|Brock}} almost kissed this Human Shape Pokémon during his sickly state.

A Jynx was also used by a girl named [[Erica]] in the [[Pacifidlog Town]] Contest in ''[[AG115|Mean With Envy]]'' and ''[[AG116|Pacifidlog Jam]]''. ''Mean With Envy'' also marked the first appearance of Jynx's purple redesign in the anime.

A trio of Jynx sisters were in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]''. These three Jynx were overly-protective towards their sister, a {{p|Smoochum}}. The Smoochum evolved into a Jynx at the end of the episode.

[[File:Jynx AG013.png|thumb|left|200px|Jynx in its original design, as seen in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]'']]
===Minor appearances===
A Jynx under the ownership of the Pokémon Showboat stage show staff appeared in ''[[EP090|Stage Fight!]]''.

A Jynx appears in ''[[EP108|Pokémon Double Trouble]]'', running on a treadmill in a scene removed from the dub.

A Jynx was used by a Trainer in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]'', but this scene was cut from the English dub as it featured Jynx in its original design.

A Jynx appeared in the opening of ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Jynx MPJ.png|thumb|200px|Jynx in Magical Pokémon Journey]]
===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
{{main|Jynx (MPJ)}}
A fortune-telling Jynx appears in the manga [[Magical Pokémon Journey]]. {{MPJ|Arbok}} goes to Jynx's fortune-telling hut to find out if he has a chance with his crush, {{MPJ|Wigglytuff}}.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Jynx debuted in ''[[PS017|The Jynx Jinx]]'' under the ownership of [[Team Rocket Elite Trio|Ken]]. She was used to attack Red and Green after they tricked Team Rocket and capture Mew. When she attacked Mew, Red and Green tried to defend it, only to be defeated. Mew retaliates against her and freezes her and Ken while sparing Red and Green.

Jynx's most notable role is being under the ownership of [[Lorelei]] in [[Pokémon Adventures]] which first appeared in ''[[PS068|Jigglypuff Jive]]''. Lorelei's Jynx is noted for having the ability to generate voodoo dolls out of ice using its {{m|Ice Beam}}. When Lorelei draws crosses on any part of the dolls using her lipstick, ice shackles form on the specified body parts of her targets, eventually freezing the victim over completely. Even after the victims are broken free, the freeze induces lasting numbness in the areas where it was applied. Both {{adv|Red}} and [[Sabrina]] suffered this condition and had to seek a cure atop [[Mt. Silver]] by bathing in the hotsprings there. Another ability of Lorelei's Jynx is revealed in the [[Sevii Islands]] saga: she can create a wispy band of ice around targets, which Lorelei can use to track them down using her powder case.

Later a Jynx appeared in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]'' as one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in [[Ilex Forest]].

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Jynx took part in a baseball match with {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} in ''[[PM021|Fierce Competition at the Pokémon Baseball Tournament!]]''.

===In the Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All manga===
Shū has a Jynx in the [[Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All]] manga.

==Trivia==
[[File:Jynx Foot.png|thumb|right|200px|Jynx's foot]]
* Jynx and its pre-evolution {{p|Smoochum}} are the only Pokémon with the [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] {{2t|Ice|Psychic}}.
* As its Pokédex entries state that Jynx speaks an incomprehensible language, the player, as a Pokémon, cannot understand anything it says in the {{pkmn|Mystery Dungeon series}}.
* When Jynx faints in the {{g|Stadium series}}, everything but its hair vanishes, implying that its armor and black "skin" is darkness. Similarly, in {{pkmn|Colosseum}} and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness|XD]], it simply vanishes upon fainting.
* Although Jynx has been seen to possess feet in the anime, it does not have a [[footprint]].
** When Jynx is viewed from underneath via the 3D-rendered Pokédex in the Stadium and {{pkmn|X and Y}} games, nothing but darkness is shown underneath its dress.
* A [[a:File:Capsule Monsters Buhi.jpg|pre-alpha sketch]] depicts an unreleased Pokémon with the same Pokédex number as Jynx.
* Jynx has the longest [[cry]] of any Pokémon, lasting 2.238 seconds.
* Jynx is the only Pokémon to have Dry Skin as its Hidden Ability.
===Controversy===
[[File:124Jynx OS anime.png|thumb|right|Jynx's original design in the anime|150px]]
{{wp|Carole Boston Weatherford}}, a cultural critic, claimed that Jynx, which appeared in ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'', was a negative racial stereotype of African-Americans in an article titled "Politically Incorrect Pokémon" on the magazine ''Black World Today''. She chiefly compared Jynx to the racist characters in ''{{wp|The Story of Little Black Sambo}}'', and further compared Jynx to {{wp|Mr. Popo}} of the {{wp|Dragon Ball}} franchise, a character who is also potentially offensive in his design.

Weatherford's complaint caused many repercussions in the Pokémon franchise. The sprites of Jynx in the Western releases of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} were edited, and [[EP250]] was cut from international airings of the anime. A sequence depicting Jynx in its original design in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]'' was also cut from the dub. Jynx's design was officially revised by [[Game Freak]] to be purple rather than black, and this change was reflected in later [[core series]] games, including in Japan and South Korea, beginning with {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, and in the {{pkmn|anime}} starting in ''[[AG115|Mean With Envy]]''. Jynx has also been recolored in [[VIZ Media]]'s reissues of [[Pokémon Adventures]]. Although the manga is colored in black-and-white, Jynx appearing in the manga are recolored as a dark gray rather than a straight black, suggesting that they are purple instead of black. It is also recolored to purple on the back cover of the reissue of {{PAV|4}}. The [[Virtual Console]] versions of {{g|Snap}} and {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} also recolor Jynx's face.

In recent years, some fans of Pokémon have noted that Jynx may be inspired by {{wp|ganguro}}, a Japanese fashion where women tan heavily, bleach their hair, and apply large amounts of makeup, instead of a black stereotype. This theory is mainly based on Jynx's long, straight, blonde hair, a common attribute of ganguro fashion. Another theory is that Jynx is based on a Nordic princess as per the legends saying things like due to the blistering cold, a princess's skin turned black. They argue that Jynx's hair looks more like royalty than an African stereotype. They also say that being based on a {{wp|Viking}} could reason why they are {{t|Ice}} type. This is further expressed by Jynx sharing traits with the iconic opera singing "{{wp|It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings|Fat Lady}}," who is pop-culturally portrayed dressed as the {{wp|valkyrie}} {{wp|Brünnhilde}}.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Jynx}}
What Jynx is based on is a controversial topic within the fandom, although common interpretations are a Nordic or a Viking woman (possibly {{wp|Hel (goddess)|Hel}}, goddess of the underworld), or ガングロ ''{{wp|ganguro}}'' (face-black). Also, the fact that Jynx are depicted as Santa's helpers in the anime may reference the folklore character {{wp|Zwarte Piet}}.

Jynx also has the traits of a female opera singer, especially the iconic cartoon depiction of the {{wp|It ain't over till the fat lady sings|fat lady}}; {{g|Snap}} and its third generation sprites depict it singing, especially the Emerald sprite that animates it singing a high note. Jynx may also have origins in the Japanese spirits known as {{wp|Yuki-onna}}, who lack feet, akin to Jynx's feet being covered by its dress.

It may also be based on {{wp|Yama-uba}} (also called Yamanba), a {{wp|yōkai}} which is described as always wearing a tattered red kimono, having whitish-blonde hair, control over snow, dark-colored skin, and large lips, traits which are evident in Jynx. "Yamanba" is also a slang for the extreme end of ganguro fashion, which involves bleached hair, artificial tanning, and heavy applying of brightly-colored lipstick.

Its revised coloring may be based on purple discoloration of the skin, a common symptom of {{wp|frostbite}}. This fits with Jynx's {{t|Ice}} type and how it is found in very cold places.

====Name origin====
Jynx is a corruption of ''{{wp|jinx}}'', a curse or hex of bad luck.

Rougela may be a feminized corruption of ''{{wp|Rouge (cosmetics)|rouge}}'', a type of makeup. It is also French for ''red''.

==In the anime==
[[File:Linebacker anime.png|thumb|200px|Linebackers in the anime]]
In ''[[BW051|Lost at the Stamp Rally!]]'', {{Ash}} and {{an|Iris}} went to the Big Stadium to watch a football game between the teams "{{p|Gurdurr}} 11" and "Team {{p|Darmanitan}}". Although no Linebackers were seen live, two were shown on a poster telling about the big game.

According to Iris, she's a huge fan of "Gurdurr 11" because they have been training in the [[Village of Dragons]] for a long time.

==Trivia==
* In a real game of {{wp|American football}}, a Linebacker would never use a 3-point stance and no player would use a closed fist. Using a closed fist during a game could potentially disqualify them from participating.

Talk:Fury Cutter (move)

2016-01-28T22:58:26Z

Flicky: /* PBR bug? */ new section

==Maximum Power?==

Does Fury Cutter have a maximum power gain? [[User:Gywall|'''Gywall''']]([[User_talk:Gywall|Talk]]) 13:51, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
:I read somewhere that it maxes out after it's power has reached a value of 16 times it's original power (10). So that would mean after 5 turns it's power would reach 160 and in the next turn it would reset. [[User:Tesh|'''TESH''']][[User_talk:Tesh|'''IGIGAS''']] 19:24, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:Are we even sure of that?--[[User:Dragonbeastx|DRAGON]][[User talk:Dragonbeastx|BEAST]][[User:Dragonbeastx/The Aura Spot|X]] 23:34, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
::I just tried this in Diamond. The 6th hit did at least as much damage as the 5th. It doesn't reset, but maxes out, so the base power would go 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 160, 160, etc. [[User:Meeve|Meeve]] 04:09, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

== STAB and Technician ==
[[Scyther]] can learn Fury Cutter. This being a Bug-type move with base power less-than 60, what would (should/etc) happen when a [[Technician]] Scyther uses this move? Would it start with an increased base power of <tt>10 × 3/2 × 3/2 = 22</tt> and double from there, achieving an attack power of whopping <tt>'''352'''</tt> at the fifth turn? Or it would cap at attack power of 160 as with the normal version? If it is the former, would it be notable to mention in the article? --[[User:Solovino|Solovino]] 21:10, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
:First off, STAB Doesn't Affect base power directly. It is multiplied at the end. Meaning that the first time Fury attack is used the Base power is effectively 15. As to how it affects base power, it depends on whether the game doubles the last base power used or doubles the listed base power or it might simply cap off at 160. I would say that it is probably the second one, but I can't say for certain. Here is a chart for the first two cases. Feel free to fix it if anyone finds some errors with my math. [[User:Professor|The Professor]] 02:22, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

And what happens if we add a Metronom item in all this? [[User:Q's bone|Q's bone]] 04:57, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
: The Metronome is like STAB it gets added to the end. It doesn't affect the base power directly. [[User:Professor|The Professor]] 02:22, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
== Generation V ==
It's power is doubled here. Does this means that Fury Cutter can hit up to 320 of Base Power? If yes, it would have hit more than Explosion without any bonuses to power (also, Explosion as of Generation V doesn't halves Defense. Although, just a consecutive hits increased power could be a "bonus") [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 13:23, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

== Gen VI ==

I wonder: is Fury Cutter still capped at 160 power? With the increase to 40 base power, I kinda have to wonder. '''[[User:SharKing|SharKing]] [[User talk:SharKing|Productions]]''' 08:07, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
: Power calculations for Gen VI using a Ninjask holding a metronome attacking and A Linoone defending. Both are at lvl 50 with Max stats, we'll assume Linoone uses a full restore every turn then the opposing trainer sends out an identical Linoone. So the math looks like D=({2*50+10}/{250} * {156/124} * [base power] +2)*M we'll solve for final modifier and final damage. Fury cutter applies to the base power (I think) in the equation which is why technician applies only on turn one.

== Switching targets ==

In a double battle, if fury cutter is used against one target and then on the next turn against a different target, does its power reset? Or does it continue to stack? [[User:Chrisjfinlay|Chrisjfinlay]] ([[User talk:Chrisjfinlay|talk]]) 09:45, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

== PBR bug? ==

Is there a glitch in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] where the power doesn't reset if you switch to another move then back to Fury Cutter? People were saying it in Twitch chat but I didn't want to just add it without checking. --[[User:Flicky|Fli]][[User talk:Flicky|cky]][[Special:Contributions/Flicky|1991]] 22:58, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Does it really need the 10% Forme section? Unless it becomes explicitly confirmed that it changes attacks when it switches formes, which I'm pretty sure it hasn't, it seems only reasonable that we assume it retains the same moves between formes. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno.

Dark (type)

----
{{types}}
The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Dark-type Pokémon are [[Karen]] of the [[Indigo Plateau]] [[Elite Four]], [[Sidney]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, and [[Grimsley]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four. Notably, the Dark type is the only type that has never had a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] specialize in it, although it is a recurrent type used by [[villainous teams]] and Elite Four members. 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.

The Dark type was introduced in [[Generation II]], along with the [[Steel]] type.

}}

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
The Dark type, along with the {{t|Steel}} type, was introduced in [[Generation II]] in order to balance the previously overpowered {{t|Psychic}} type. As such, Dark is designed to have a key immunity to Psychic moves. However, most Dark-type Pokémon have poor {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Defense}}, and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats, though there are others with high defensive stats, such as {{p|Tyranitar}}, {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Mandibuzz}}, and {{p|Drapion}}.

Prior to [[Generation VI]], Dark/{{type|Ghost}} Pokémon 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 {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Dark and not resisted by Ghost.

Dark pairs well with {{t|Poison}} defensively—the latter nullifies all of the former's weaknesses, while Dark removes Poison's weakness to Psychic, leaving a single {{t|Ground}} weakness.

===Offense===
Dark-type moves are especially useful when combating Psychic and Ghost types. Many of them involve the possession of an opponent's attributes, such as {{m|Knock Off}} and {{m|Foul Play}}. Dark had little use as neutral coverage until Steel lost its resistance to it in Generation VI. Despite not being very effective against Fairy, several Dark-type Pokémon have access to Steel and Poison-type moves to pose a threat. Dark-type attacks work very well with Fairy-type attacks since the rare Steel/Fairy is the only combination that resists both.

Despite being a [[special move|special]] type prior to [[Generation IV]], all previous Dark-type attacks became physical, which is helpful since most Dark-type Pokémon are [[physical move|physical]] attackers due to their typically high {{stat|Attack}}. Nevertheless, some Dark types have notably higher {{stat|Special Attack}}, such as {{p|Hydreigon}}, {{p|Houndoom}}, and {{p|Zoroark}}.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Dark-type moves are typically categorized as {{OBP|Clever|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 45 Dark-type Pokémon or about 6.3% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 6th rarest type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon of any generation, with 16, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest (minus [[Generation I]]) Dark-type Pokémon, with six.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Dark-type moves of any generation, with 11, and Generation VI introduced the fewest (minus 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.
* There has yet to be a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] that specializes in the Dark type.
** The {{t|Fairy}} type, introduced in Generation VI, received its own gym before the Dark type, introduced in Generation II.
* Despite Dark-type moves being [[special move|special]] before Generation IV, every Dark-type move originating from before Generation IV was made into a [[physical move]].

Flicky:

{{types}}
The '''Dragon type''' (Japanese: '''ドラゴンタイプ''' ''Dragon type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Dragon-type Pokémon are [[Lance]], the current {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Indigo Plateau]], [[Clair]] of [[Blackthorn City]], [[Drake]] of the [[Hoenn]] [[Elite Four]], [[Drayden]] of [[Opelucid City]], [[Iris]], the current Champion of the [[Unova]], and [[Drasna]] of the [[Kalos]] Elite Four. Prior to [[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 attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, Dragon types have resistances to {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Water}} and {{t|Fire}}. However, many fully-[[evolution|evolved]] Dragon-type Pokémon have a double weakness to {{type|Ice}} moves due to their secondary [[type]]s. Dragon is the only type resistant to all types of [[starter Pokémon]], including Electric. Their weakness to themselves and {{t|Fairy}} is balanced by the fact that few Pokémon can learn powerful Fairy-type moves in the first place.

===Offense===
The Dragon type is statistically the best type overall, as many of them are [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon|pseudo-legendary]] or [[Legendary Pokémon]] with above-600 base stat totals. Most Dragon-type Pokémon have high {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}}, as well as potentially high {{stat|Speed}}. Even though Dragon-type moves are only {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Dragon-type Pokémon, the only two types that resist Dragon are {{t|Steel}} and {{t|Fairy}}, with Fairy types being completely immune to Dragon attacks. This gives Dragon-type Pokémon good use of their benefited [[same-type attack bonus]]. However, because of many Dragon-type Pokémon's secondary types and their wide and varied movepools, they still have some ability to counter Fairy types, Steel types, and {{t|Ice}} types.

Despite Dragon's numerous offensive advantages, Dragon type moves tend to be somewhat weak in the hands of non-Dragon types, due to not benefiting from STAB and only being super effective against a single type and so tend to get passed up on these Pokémon in favor of other moves unless no better coverage options are available. However, because the type provides good neutral coverage, as well as the fact that some Dragons are not weak to {{t|Ice}} and/or {{t|Fairy}}, they can remain viable options in certain situations and roles.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Dragon-type moves are typically {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves, but some may be {{OBP|Clever|condition}} or {{OBP|Tough|condition}}. None of them are {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} or {{OBP|Cute|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 40 Dragon-type Pokémon or 5.4% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 4th rarest type.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with the Dragon type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Protean}}, {{a|Imposter}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Dragon-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with with a Dragon-type move, uses a Dragon-type move, is sent out against a Dragon-type opponent, or is holding a {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}.

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

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Dragon-type Pokémon of any generation, with 10, and [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest Dragon-type Pokémon, with only {{p|Kingdra|one}}.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Dragon-type moves of any generation, with five, while [[Generation I]] introduced the fewest, with {{m|Dragon Rage|only one}}. Generation VI did not introduce any Dragon-type moves.
* In Generation I, there was no way to do super-effective Dragon-type damage, since the then-only Dragon-type attack, {{m|Dragon Rage}}, always deals 40 HP of damage.
** Also, for the same reasons, there was no way to get {{STAB}} from a Dragon-type move in Generation I.
* [[Sinnoh]] is the only region without a notable Dragon-type specialist.
* There are only thirteen Dragon-type moves, the fewest of any type.
** The Dragon type also has the fewest number of non-damaging moves out of all of the types, with only one, {{m|Dragon Dance}}.
* In Generation I, no type resisted the Dragon type, making it the only type to ever have this distinction. However, there were no Dragon-type moves that utilized the standard damage formula in Generation I, making this a moot point.
* In [[Generation III]], all Dragon-type moves were {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves.
* Dragon-type moves are tied with the {{t|Water}} type for having the most [[held item]]s that boost their power: {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}, {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}, {{DL|Gem|Dragon Gem}}, and all three [[timespace orbs]].
* The Dragon type resists all three of the traditional primary types of core series [[starter Pokémon]]: {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Water}}. In addition, it resists {{t|Electric}}, which was the type of the player's starter in {{game|Yellow}}.

Ice (type)

Flicky:

{{types}}
The '''Ice type''' (Japanese: '''こおりタイプ''' ''Ice type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Ice-type Pokémon are [[Lorelei]], a former member of the [[Indigo Plateau]] [[Elite Four]], [[Pryce]] of [[Mahogany Town]], [[Glacia]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, [[Candice]] of [[Snowpoint City]], [[Brycen]], the former [[Gym Leader]] of [[Icirrus City]], and [[Wulfric]] of [[Snowbelle City]]. 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.

==Battle properties==
===Generation I===
Ice-type Pokémon cannot be {{status|frozen}} by Ice-type moves.

|weaken4=Ground
|resisted1=Ice

}}

===Generation II onwards===
Ice-type Pokémon are immune to {{weather|Hail}} weather damage.

Starting in [[Generation III]], Ice-type Pokémon cannot be {{status|frozen}}.

{{typebattle

|weaken3=Grass
|weaken4=Ground
|resisted1=Fire
|resisted2=Ice
|resisted3=Steel
|resisted4=Water
}}

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
The Ice type is considered by many to be the worst of all types defensively. It only resists itself and is immune to [[Freeze (status ailment)|freezing]] and the effects of {{weather|hail}}, while carrying weaknesses to {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Rock}}, and {{t|Steel}}. Additionally, double weaknesses are common amongst Ice types, especially to the {{t|Fighting}} type. As a result, most Ice types have more weaknesses than resistances.

However, some Ice types, such as {{p|Avalugg}}, have high defenses in order to compensate for their many weaknesses, which can help them withstand {{DL|Damage modification|super effective|super-effective}} attacks and remain on the field longer.

===Offense===
Offensively, because the fact that double weaknesses to Ice are fairly common, especially due to {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Flying}} types, Ice is one of the most commonly-used attacking types. Ice also pairs well with other common attacking types, notably {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Electric}}. Some Ice-type Pokémon can use a few {{type|Water}} moves, which cover their weaknesses to Fire and Rock.

{{type|Water}} Pokémon are often compared with Ice-type Pokémon, as most of the former can also effectively use Ice attacks, which cover their major weakness of {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Dragon}}, which resist their moves. However, some Ice types have an advantage over Water types due to the introduction of {{m|Freeze-Dry}} in [[Generation VI]] (an Ice-type move that is exclusively learned by Ice types), as it can deal {{DL|Damage modification|super effective|super-effective}} damage to most Water types.

===Contest properties===
When used in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, most Ice-type moves become {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} moves, with two {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves being the only exceptions.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 35 Ice-type Pokémon or 4.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it tied with {{t|Ghost}} as the rarest type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Ice-type Pokémon of any generation, with {{tt|eight|including Frost Rotom}}, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Ice-type Pokémon, with four.
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Ice-type moves of any generation, with six, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ice-type moves, with only {{m|Freeze-Dry|one}}.
* Although the Ice type existed since Generation I, pure Ice-type Pokémon were not introduced until [[Generation III]].
* Similar to {{type|Fire}} moves, all Ice-type moves were {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} moves in Generation III.
* Only the {{t|Normal}} type has a lower number of resistances than the Ice type, having no resistances (but one immunity). Ice only resists itself.
* There has been a [[Gym Leader]] or [[Elite Four]] member who specializes in the Ice type introduced in each generation. Three of the Ice-type [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Pryce]], [[Candice]], and [[Brycen]], are the seventh Gym Leaders in their respective region. [[Wulfric]] is the exception, being the eighth in his region.
* Ice is the only type that is super effective against the {{t|Flying}} type that does not in turn resist Flying-type moves.
** It is also the only type that is super effective against the {{t|Grass}} type that does not in turn resist Grass-type moves.
* Ice-type attacks are resisted by all types that {{type|Water}} Pokémon resist.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
The defensive capabilities of Psychic-types are generally poor. The only types resisted by them are {{t|Fighting}} and themselves, while carrying weaknesses to {{t|Ghost}} as well as the extremely common {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Bug}}. Psychic-type Pokémon often fall to a single strong {{type|Dark}} move, such as {{m|Crunch}}, due to the high Attack stat of many Dark-type Pokémon versus the typically low {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|HP}} of Psychic-types. In addition, the low Defense many Psychics have frequently makes their Fighting resistance ineffective. Prior to [[Generation VI]], {{t|Steel}}/Psychic types were exempt from these weaknesses due to their typing, but since Dark and Ghost are no longer resisted by Steel, this is no longer the case.

Most Psychic types have a high {{stat|Special Defense}} stat, as well as outliers with high Defense and HP stats, such as {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Cresselia}}. Psychic-type moves tend to have supporting effects, such as {{m|Reflect}}, {{m|Light Screen}}, and {{m|Trick Room}}, which benefit both themselves and their teammates, giving them greater survivability.

===Offense===
Psychic-type Pokémon and moves have been very popular since [[Generation I]] due to their typically high {{stat|Special Attack}} and being resisted by only two types, including themselves. They are super-effective against the common Fighting and {{t|Poison}} types, the latter of which is otherwise strong defensively and the former of which tend to have low {{stat|Special Defense}}.

The biggest drawback of Psychic-type moves is that they do not affect {{type|Dark}} Pokémon, although this weakness can be removed with {{m|Miracle Eye}}. However, this is not always necessary as many Psychic-type Pokémon can learn moves super-effective against Dark types, such as strong Fighting type moves like {{m|Focus Blast}} and {{m|Dazzling Gleam}}, a powerful Fairy-type move. Psychics also have access to a wide range of Special moves from nearly every type, which can make their {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Bug}} weaknesses ineffective.

===Contest properties===
When used in Contests, Psychic-type moves are typically {{OBP|Clever|condition}} moves, but can also be of the other four Contest types, excluding {{OBP|Tough|condition}}.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 75 Psychic-type Pokémon or 10.2% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 5th most common type.

==Balance issues==
Psychic-type Pokémon were at the center of a balance issue in the [[Generation I]] games.<ref> Sugimori, Ken ''"Psychic Pokémon seemed to dominate in the previous Pokémon game, so we needed to come up with new Pokémon and types to make Gold and Silver more balanced."'' Nintendo Power 134 (July 2000) p. 79 (retrieved August 16, 2010)</ref> The issue arose from the lack of an effective countermeasure against Psychic types caused by the absence of any powerful {{type|Bug}} moves (at the time the only weakness of Psychic types). Strengthening the gap was the fact that {{p|Beedrill|the only Bug-type Pokémon}} to know {{m|Pin Missile|the only potentially good Bug move}} was also part {{type|Poison}}, creating a vulnerability to Psychic moves, and that in the first-generation games, Ghost-type moves were not only ineffective against Psychic Pokémon, but the only Ghost Pokémon at the time were part-Poison, also creating a vulnerability, not to mention the fact that the {{m|Lick|only Ghost-type move}} that would be affected by type matchups at the time was exceedingly weak.

The issue was rectified in later generations with the addition of {{t|Steel}} and {{t|Dark}} types, an added weakness to {{type|Ghost}} moves, and more powerful Bug- and Ghost-type moves.

==Trivia==

* [[Generation III]] introduced the most Psychic-type Pokémon of any generation, with 20, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Psychic-type Pokémon, with six.
* [[Generation I]] introduced the most Psychic-type moves of any generation, with 15, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Psychic-type moves with only {{m|Hyperspace Hole|one}}.
* Psychic is the most common type for [[Legendary Pokémon]], with at least two Psychic-type [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in each generation (except [[Generation VI]], which has only introduced one) for a total of 14 (out of 53).
* Psychic is the only type that shares its name with {{m|Psychic|a move}} and {{tc|Psychic|a Trainer Class}}.
* There has been one [[Elite Four]] member or [[Gym Leader]] specializing in Psychic-type Pokémon in every generation.
* 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 countering physical and special attacks are, respectively, Fighting- and Psychic-type moves.
* A Pokémon cannot have a double resistance to Psychic without being a Psychic type itself.
** However, a Psychic-type Pokémon also cannot have a double resistance to more than one type.
* Two of the types that are super-effective against Psychic share a weakness with it. Dark types are also weak to Bug, and Ghost types are weak to Dark and Ghost.
** Also, both Dark and Ghost types are immune to a type Psychic resists.
* {{a|Rattled}}, an [[Ability]] introducted in [[Generation V]], is affected by the weaknesses of the Psychic type.
