Talk:List of Pokémon by base stats in Generation IX

GhoulB: /* Alt Title / Search Redirect */ new section

== The lop/base template does not accommodate for a four-digit pokedex number. Currently it truncates the units place. ==

I have no permissions to make or edit templates, but editing might be out o the table because I just tested here and simply changing the padright to 4 brakes all the previous generations which have only 3 digits. I assume the only way here would be to create a new template under a new name (lop/base/genIX maybe) with the corrected padding. Below I added the template as it would look corrected for genIX and how editing the current one would break previous generations.

:I just edited the template to use four digits. Thanks for pointing out it was broke. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:48, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

I suggest this page and other pages like it should be findable by searching "List of Pokemon by BST" as that is a common abbreviation for Base Stat Total.

I'm not sure how to change that myself. [[User:GhoulB|GhoulB]] ([[User talk:GhoulB|talk]]) 16:30, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

'''Waterfall''' (Japanese: '''たきのぼり''' ''Waterfall Climb'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Water}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].

It is:
* [[HM07]] from [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} to {{gen|IV}}.
* [[HM05]] in [[Generation V]] and {{gen|VI}}.
* [[TM98]] in {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.
* [[TM25]] in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].
* [[TR16]] in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]].
* [[TM99]] in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}.
* [[TM077]] in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.
* [[TM098]] in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]].

Prior to Generation II, it was the [[signature move]] of {{p|Goldeen}} and {{p|Seaking}}.

==Effect==
===In battle===
====Generation I to III====
Waterfall does damage and has no secondary effect.

Waterfall can be used as the second move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining 2 bonus appeal points if {{m|Rain Dance}} was used in the previous turn.

====Generation IV====
Waterfall now has a 20% chance of causing the target to [[flinch]].

===Generation V onwards===
Waterfall is no longer affected by [[King's Rock]].

===Generation IX===
====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
{{LegendsZAMove
|type=Water
|damagecategory=Physical
|power=80
|cooldown=8
|charge-time=15
}}

===Outside of battle===
{{main|Waterfall (obstacle)}}

Waterfall is [[field move|usable outside of battle]], allowing the player to climb [[waterfall (obstacle)|waterfalls]]. In several games, this move is needed to travel past certain points where waterfalls block the player's path.

The player is required to be {{m|Surf|surfing}} on water and facing a waterfall when using this move. They can either use Waterfall from the [[party]] screen or simply press A to interact with the waterfall.

Prior to Generation V, all the waterfalls climbable with this move flowed from north to south (from the top to the bottom of the game screen).

In certain games, using Waterfall outside of battle requires a specific [[badge]]; the Volcano Badge{{sup/3|FRLG}}, Rising Badge{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}, Rain Badge{{sup/3|RSE}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}, Beacon Badge{{sup/4|DPPt}}{{sup/8|BDSP}}, or Iceberg Badge{{sup/6|XY}}.

====Generation I====
Waterfall is not a field move in this generation.

====Generations II and III====
Waterfall is now an HM move which allows the player to climb waterfalls. This move is not required to go down waterfalls.

====Generations IV to VI====
Waterfall is now required to go down waterfalls.

In {{game|Platinum}}, there is a waterfall in the [[Distortion World]] that can be climbed without having the move Waterfall or the {{badge|Beacon}}. This is likely due to the fact that gravity is not normal in this world; the player appears to be "surfing" on the waterfall's surface.

====Generation VII====
Waterfall can no longer be used outside of battle.

====Generation VIII====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Waterfall cannot be used outside of battle. In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, it can again and functions as it did in Generations IV to VI, aside from being accessed through the [[Pokétch]] rather than being taught to a Pokémon.

====Generation IX====
Waterfall can no longer be used outside of battle.

==Trivia==
* The English name "Waterfall" leaves out the part about climbing, as opposed to the Japanese name "たきのぼり" (''Waterfall Climb''). Some in-game descriptions (starting in the {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}}) further clarify that the user is charging with enough force to climb waterfalls.
** In the English version of {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, there is no indication that this move involves climbing waterfalls, because these games do not include move descriptions.
** In the Japanese version of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the act of "charging with enough force to climb waterfalls" is mentioned in the move description. In the English translation, this was shortened to simply "An aquatic charge attack." (leaving out again the part about climbing). However, [[Clair]] explains the move after being defeated: "<sc>RisingBadge</sc> will enable your {{ScPkmn}} to use the move for climbing waterfalls."
** In several games, a waterfall appears when this move is used in-battle. This may incorrectly suggest that the user is summoning a waterfall. While this is most notable in the side series games such as the Pokémon Stadium games, Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness, the attack has been correctly depicted by [[Squirtle (Super Smash Bros.)|Squirtle]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. series]].
* Waterfall was the first move to gain HM status in a [[generation]] after it was introduced, doing so in [[Generation II]]. Only {{m|Rock Smash}} shares this trait, although it does not remain an HM in all subsequent generations.
* Waterfall is the only HM move that was never exclusively taught by HM.
* Waterfall is the only former [[signature move]] to later become an HM move.
* In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], [[Wallace]] gives out [[HM05]] (Waterfall) instead of a [[TM]]. This is the only time a [[Gym Leader]] gives out an [[HM]] instead of a TM.
* In [[Generation II]] only, the surfing Pokémon spins quickly when it is climbing a waterfall.
* In [[Generation VI]], if the player uses Waterfall to go up or down a waterfall while riding on a Pokémon with a unique {{m|Surf}}ing model (like {{p|Lapras}}), the screen will briefly be covered in a splash of water and then show the player at the other end of the waterfall, instead of showing the entire process.
* In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], on {{DL|Battle CDs 31-40|Battle CD 38}}, {{p|Anorith}} knows Waterfall, although it [[Game move errors|cannot learn the move]].
* Waterfall is the only {{type|Water}} move capable of making the target [[flinch]].

Fury Cutter (move)

2025-09-17T02:12:34Z

GhoulB: /* Generations II to IV */ Made it clear fury cutter does not double in power when you used in succession only. If other moves are selected in between, Fury Cutter's power still doubles.

'''Fury Cutter''' (Japanese: '''れんぞくぎり''' ''Consecutive Cut'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Bug}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]]. It was [[TM49]] in Generation II.

==Effect==
===Generations II to IV===
Fury Cutter starts with a base power of 10. Every time Fury Cutter hits the power will double, even if other moves are used in between. The power may double up to a maximum of 160 (which could take minimum 5 turns). If Fury Cutter misses, the user is switched out, or the player uses an item, the power will reset to normal.

Fury Cutter can be used as the second move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining 3 bonus appeal points if {{m|Swords Dance}} was used in the previous turn.

===Generation V===
Fury Cutter's base power increased from 10 to 20, meaning that it takes four consecutive turns to reach the maximum power of 160. If another move is selected, its power will reset.

===Generation VI onwards===
Fury Cutter's base power increased even further from 20 to 40, meaning that it takes three consecutive turns to reach the maximum power of 160. If used by a Pokémon with {{a|Sharpness}} as its [[Ability]], its power is increased by 50%.

====In-depth description====
This move has a multiplier that starts at ×1, and after a [[sync pair]] connects with this move, this multiplier doubles for that specific pair to a maximum of ×8 (with four or more consecutive uses).<ref name="How Fury Cutter works in Pokémon Masters EX">[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f5jJSZx4vkGIle2oiVWdbwQ82fl7RqYi84jPgaWbIKE/edit#heading=h.mqsl375d3xs1 ''Pokémon Masters Damage Formula'' by StDk]</ref> However, if the same sync pair performs any other action (i.e., another move that the user's Trainer or Pokémon uses—or even a [[sync move]]) mid-succession or if this move misses, then this multiplier resets to ×1.

==={{g|UNITE}}===
In Pokémon UNITE, Fury Cutter is {{p|Crustle}}'s second starting move. The user attacks once with his claws. Enemies hit by Fury Cutter receive a debuff that causes subsequent Fury Cutter attacks to deal 20% additional damage, with a maximum of two debuff stacks. Additional damage from this debuff is always rounded up. Fury Cutter can critically hit; however, the user's base critical hit chance is 0%. At level 6 this move is replaced by either {{m|Stealth Rock}} or {{m|X-Scissor}}.

==Trivia==
* Fury Cutter is capable of having the highest power of all Bug-type moves with the exception of {{m|Savage Spin-Out}}, reaching 160 in the third consecutive turn.
* [[Bugsy]] claims to have discovered this technique by himself.<ref>[[Bugsy/Quotes#Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal|Bugsy]]: "''[[TM49]] contains <sc>Fury Cutter</sc>. If you don't miss, it gets stronger every turn. The longer your battle goes, the better it gets. Isn't that great? I discovered it!''" ({{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}})</ref>
* In [[Generation II]], Fury Cutter was the only {{type|Bug}} move learnable by [[TM]].
* Prior to [[Generation V]], {{p|Shedinja}} is able to know Fury Cutter by [[Level|leveling up]] if {{p|Nincada}} is allowed to [[Evolution|evolve]] only at level 20, as {{p|Ninjask}} learns this move at this level.

'''Tabitha''' (Japanese: '''ホムラ''' ''Homura'') is one of the {{tc|Magma Admin|Admin}}s of [[Team Magma]].

==In the core series games==
Tabitha plays a key role in the main story of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby}} and its remake {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Pokémon Omega Ruby}} as an Admin of the main villainous team, [[Team Magma]]. He makes only minor appearances in the corresponding games Pokémon Sapphire and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, as [[Team Aqua]] are the main villains of these games.

In Pokémon Ruby, Tabitha steals the [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] at [[Meteor Falls]] and brings it to [[Maxie]] at [[Mt. Chimney]]. At Mt. Chimney, the {{player}} has to battle him before battling Maxie and stopping his attempt to make the volcano erupt. Tabitha is next encountered at [[Slateport City]], assisting [[Maxie]] in stealing the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] in order to descend to [[Seafloor Cavern]]. He is later encountered again at the [[Team Magma Hideout|Magma Hideout]] outside [[Lilycove City]], battling the player to buy time for the submarine to escape.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Tabitha's role starts out the same way as in Ruby, with him stealing the Meteorite at Meteor Falls. However, now the second encounter with him happens at the {{OBP|Magma Hideout|Jagged Pass|new Magma Hideout}} inside Mt. Chimney, where the player must battle him in order to reach Maxie, who is in the process of awakening {{p|Groudon}}. After the player has defeated [[Tate and Liza]], Team Magma invades the [[Mossdeep Space Center]], intending to steal all of their rocket fuel and make Mt. Chimney erupt. The player teams up with {{Steven}} in a [[Multi Battle]] against Maxie and Tabitha, who will retreat after being defeated.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, his appearance is dramatically revamped, similarly to [[Matt]] and [[Shelly]]. In Pokémon Omega Ruby, Tabitha is revealed to have previously worked for [[Devon Corporation]], where he was nicknamed '''Tabitabi''' (Japanese: '''ホムホム''' ''Homuhomu''), and that he helped Team Magma gain access to their research, thus assisting them in the creation of the [[Magma Suit]]. Tabitha initially performs the same role as in Pokémon Ruby; unlike in Ruby, however, he is battled by the {{player}} and {{ga|May}}/{{ga|Brendan}} in a Multi Battle at Meteor Falls. Also, after the events at Mt. Chimney, he is encountered at the [[Weather Institute]], a role that was fulfilled by [[Courtney]] in Ruby. As Maxie prepares to awaken Groudon at Seafloor Cavern, Tabitha enters the Cavern to express his concern to Maxie about the {{a|Desolate Land|weather conditions}} created by Groudon. After Groudon's awakening, Tabitha and his boss head to [[Sootopolis City]], where they will hand the player the Magma Suit.

During the [[Delta Episode]], Tabitha is encountered at the Team Magma Hideout when [[Zinnia]] defeats Maxie and takes his [[Key Stone]]. Tabitha then begrudgingly gives a [[Cameruptite]] to the {{player}} upon Maxie's instructions, as Maxie can no longer use it to make his Camerupt [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. After the events of the Delta Episode, Tabitha is seen observing a conversation between Maxie and Courtney at the Team Magma Hideout, with Maxie apologizing to his subordinates for his actions.

In Omega Ruby, Tabitha is popular with Team Magma Grunts because of his helpfulness. Rumors suggest he aims to lead Team Magma.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160313232841/http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/characters/team-magma-and-team-aqua/team-magma-admin-tabitha Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire official website]</ref>

Tabitha's only appearance in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire happens during the player's initial visit to the [[Battle Resort]], where he and Courtney are bumped into by [[Wally]], much to their irritation.

Tabitha also appears in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version]], where he can be faced in a Multi Battle along with [[Matt]].

[[File:Tabitha anime.png|thumb|250px|Tabitha in ''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'']]
====History====
Though two Magma Admins appeared in the {{pkmn|games}}, only Tabitha appeared in {{aniseries|PTS}}. His first appearance was in the {{aniseries|RS}} episode ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]'', where he led a group of {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}s in an exploration of some ancient ruins on [[Dewford Town|Dewford Island]] in search of the [[Cave of Origin]]. They also had a confrontation with Team Aqua. Due to a dubbing error, he was mistakenly referred to as "Field Commander '''Harlan'''" during this episode, though his name was corrected in all subsequent appearances.

In ''[[AG036|The Spheal of Approval]]'', Tabitha and two grunts broke into the [[Oceanic Museum]] in order to steal a rock sample owned by [[Captain Stern]]. Although {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} attempted to stop them, Team Magma successfully made off with most of the sample.

In ''[[AG054|Fight for the Meteorite!]]'', Tabitha led a squad of grunts on a mission to [[Mt. Chimney]], first stealing a meteorite from [[Professor Cozmo]] and then using it to power an experimental machine affecting the volcano. However, their plans were ultimately thwarted by Ash and Cozmo.

His final appearances were in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''. His submarine accidentally picked up Ash and his friends while out on patrol, bringing them to Team Magma's base. He was present for the battle between {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Kyogre}} and {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Groudon}}, and, like the rest of Team Magma, has not been seen since.

====Character====
Tabitha is an intimidating individual. He and [[Shelly]] have a rivalry with one another, often exchanging insults and battling one another. His loyalty to [[Team Magma]] came into doubt after seeing the destructive power of the [[Red Orb]] in ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.

====Pokémon====

Its final appearances were in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.

Mightyena's known moves are {{m|Tackle}}, {{m|Iron Tail}}, {{m|Shadow Ball}}, {{m|Double Team}}, and {{m|Hyper Beam}}.}}

Tabitha appeared in ''[[SP23|Two Groups Attacking! Magma VS. Aqua]]'' along with the other members of Team Magma.
{{sectionstub}}
===Pokémon Adventures===
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], there are two Admins with the name "Tabitha".
[[File:Tabitha Adventures.png|thumb|200px|The first Tabitha in Pokémon Adventures]]

====First Tabitha====
The first Tabitha debuted in the {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}. He is one of the [[Magma Admin (Trainer class)#In the manga|Three Fires]] of Team Magma, alongside Courtney and [[Blaise]]. Like other members of Team Magma, the horns on Tabitha's hood can be removed to reveal a special lighter that can transmit and record images through its flame. Like the other Three Fires, Tabitha specializes in using flames to his advantage. In his case, Tabitha uses the smoke from his {{p|Torkoal}} to make his targets drowsy.

He first appears alongside Courtney on the [[Abandoned Ship]], where they were sent to obtain the [[Scanner]] hidden aboard. There, they meet {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}, both of which attempt to keep the Scanner out of Tabitha and Courtney's hands. In the end, Ruby and Sapphire escape, but Tabitha and Courtney manage to obtain the Scanner. The Scanner is later given to Blaise, who modifies it to search for the [[Red Orb|Red]] and [[Blue Orb]]s. At Slateport City, Tabitha, Courtney, and Blaise are sent to capture [[Captain Stern]] and his assistant, [[Dock]] in order to obtain the Submarine Explorer 1. In the end, Blaise manages to obtain the submarine for Team Magma's use.

Tabitha later appears at Mt. Chimney, which had its volcanic activity stopped by Team Aqua. There, he encounters [[Flannery]], a Gym Leader who fought Team Aqua but failed to stop their plan to kill Mt. Chimney. They teamed up to try and revive the volcano, but their attempts only brought it back for a short time. Angered at this failure, Tabitha cursed Team Aqua and returned to Team Magma's base.

With Team Magma possessing the Submarine Explorer 1 and Team Aqua possessing the heart component needed to keep it stable while underwater, both teams decide to have a temporary truce and head to the Seafloor Cavern together. When Team Magma and Aqua meet, they fit the Submarine Explorer 1 with its heart component and head underwater. After meeting with each other and completing the submarine, Tabitha and several Team Magma Grunts head underwater with Maxie. Upon arriving, the teams end their truce and proceed to head their separate ways. Archie manages to awaken Kyogre first, giving the advantage to Team Aqua. Despite this, Maxie uses the Red and Blue Orbs Blaise obtained from Mt. Pyre to control both super-ancient Pokémon to give Groudon an advantage over Kyogre. The strain of using both Orbs exhausts Maxie, so he hands the Blue Orb to Tabitha so he can control Kyogre.

Finding Kyogre's behavior suspicious, Archie sends {{adv|Amber}} to investigate Team Magma. Amber finds Tabitha with the Blue Orb and attacks him to take it for Archie. The battle leads them into the Submarine Explorer 1, but Amber succeeds in obtaining the Blue Orb. Immediately after handing it over, Archie betrays Amber and sends the submarine into the ocean depths without the heart component, leaving Tabitha and Amber to die as the submarine breaks apart. Tabitha and Amber work together to keep the submarine afloat and preventing water from flowing inside, but it eventually breaks apart, sending both into the water. After attempting to save both himself and Amber by swimming to the surface, Tabitha is rescued by Blaise.

When the Gym Leaders split into groups in an attempt to stop both Pokémon, the Admins of Teams Magma and Aqua split up to stop them. Tabitha is paired up against [[Wallace]], who he drags to an abandoned Lilycove City to battle in Lilycove Department Store. After being easily defeated, Tabitha suddenly goes crazy and begins attacking wildly. Wallace is saved by {{Steven}}, who reveals that coming in contact with the Blue Orb caused Tabitha to lose control of himself. Steven stays behind to battle Tabitha and sends Wallace to assist in the battle against Groudon and Kyogre at Sootopolis City. Later, Steven defeats Tabitha, allowing to head to Sootopolis as well.

After Groudon and Kyogre are defeated, Tabitha returns to a normal life. He is seen visiting the Lavaridge Hot Springs, which were reopened after Groudon went to sleep in Mt. Chimney, reviving its volcanic activity.

In the Chuang Yi translations, he is known as '''Mitch'''.

====Second Tabitha====
[[File:ORAS Magma Aqua Admins Adventures.png|thumb|250px|The second Tabitha in Pokémon Adventures]]
In the {{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, a second Tabitha appeared as a member of Neo Team Magma (Japanese: '''新生マグマ団''' ''Neo Magma Gang''). He, along with a second Courtney, took the name of his predecessor as a codename. He and the second Shelly were former researchers for the [[Devon Corporation]], but eventually left due to being fed up with [[Mr. Stone]]'s policies.

In ''[[PS609|Kyogre Returns]]'', Tabitha appeared at [[Mossdeep City]] to help Zinnia interfere with the [[Devon Corporation]]'s plan to launch a rocket that would stop the [[Grand Meteor Delta|meteoroid]] threatening to destroy the world. The Admins kept Sapphire distracted long enough for Zinnia to land on the rocket. Sapphire dodged their attacks, allowing her to escape and pursue Zinnia.

In [[PS612]], the Admins were attacked by the Hoenn [[Frontier Brain]]s and defeated. The Brains attempted to interrogate the Admins on Zinnia's whereabouts, only for them to admit they had no idea where she ran off to. In [[PS616]], Tabitha and Shelly were called to [[Sootopolis City]] to assist in saving the planet from destruction. Tabitha provided Ruby with a [[Magma Suit]] to wear while he and Sapphire rode {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} into space to confront the meteoroid.

==Trivia==
* Tabitha, like [[Shelly]], has been the subject of two name changes over two different mediums: '''Harlan''' in the {{pkmn|animated series}} and '''Mitch''' in the Chuang Yi translation of [[Pokémon Adventures]]. "Harlan" was later corrected to Tabitha after his initial debut; he remained "Mitch" throughout the entire {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}} in Chuang Yi's version.
* The name {{wp|Tabitha}} is exclusively feminine. Despite this, Tabitha is male.

'''Matt''' (Japanese: '''ウシオ''' ''Ushio'') is one of the {{tc|Aqua Admin|Admin}}s of [[Team Aqua]].

==In the core series games==
[[File:Matt ORAS.png|thumb|200px|left|Matt at the Aqua Hideout]]

Matt plays a key role in the main story in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Sapphire}} and its remake {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Pokémon Alpha Sapphire}} as an Admin to the main villainous team, [[Team Aqua]]. His appearances in the corresponding games Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Omega Ruby are limited to minor appearances, as [[Team Magma]] are the main villains of these games.

In Pokémon Sapphire, Matt steals the [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] at [[Meteor Falls]], and brings it to [[Archie]] at [[Mt. Chimney]]. At Mt. Chimney, the {{player}} has to battle him before they can battle Archie, and stop his attempts to make the volcano dormant. He is next encountered at [[Slateport City]] assisting [[Archie]] in stealing the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] in order to descend to [[Seafloor Cavern]]. He is confronted by the {{player}} at the end of the [[Team Aqua Hideout|Aqua Hideout]] outside [[Lilycove City]], battling the player so that the submarine can make its escape. In Pokémon Ruby, {{tc|Magma Admin}} [[Tabitha]] fulfills the same role.

Due to the nature of {{game|Emerald}} combining the stories of Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire, Matt only appears once, as his role at [[Meteor Falls]] and [[Mt. Chimney]] is taken by Tabitha. This single appearance is at the [[Team Aqua Hideout|Aqua Hideout]], where the {{player}} must battle him, which facilitates [[Archie]]'s escape towards [[Seafloor Cavern]].

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, his appearance is dramatically revamped, similarly to [[Tabitha]] and [[Shelly]], and
his character is expanded upon. In the past, Matt's life was saved by Archie. As a result, he is undyingly loyal to him.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20180109181954/http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/characters/team-magma-and-team-aqua/team-aqua-admin-matt Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire official website]</ref> He respects strong people like his leader, even people who are otherwise his enemies.

In Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, Matt sends a recon team, including [[Zinnia]], to investigate and steal the [[Devon Parts]] for Team Aqua; upon failing, they warn him about the player. He eventually discovers the location of the [[Blue Orb]] and informs Archie, causing the latter to cancel the operation at [[Mt. Chimney]]. Matt is next seen at [[Southern Island]], trying to steal {{p|Latias}} and the [[Latiasite]] for Team Aqua, but is stopped by the player and [[Steven Stone]], summoned by {{p|Latios}} to help. He later accompanies Archie at [[Mt. Pyre]], where they retrieve the Blue Orb; when the player arrives and tries to stop them, Archie has Matt battle them while he departs to steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] at [[Slateport City]]. While the player invades [[Team Aqua Hideout]], Matt once again battles them in order to buy time for Archie to leave for [[Seafloor Cavern]] unobstructed. He later watches on as the {{a|Primordial Sea|heavy rain}} dispels upon {{p|Kyogre}}'s defeat or capture.

In the [[Delta Episode]], Matt is so distraught by Archie's crushed dream that he decides to take matters into his own hands. He attempts to rob [[Wally]] of his [[Key Stone]], only to be stopped by the player. However, he manages to find another Key Stone near [[Meteor Falls]]. He uses the Key Stone and his newly [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] {{p|Sharpedo}} to attack the [[Mossdeep Space Center]]. He is stopped again by the player and {{Steven}}, after which [[Zinnia]]'s {{p|Whismur}}, Aster, steals his Key Stone. He is later seen during the Delta Episode's epilogue, where he reaffirms his loyalty to Archie.

In Omega Ruby, [[Courtney]] fulfills Matt's roles. Matt himself is only seen with Archie and Shelly at the [[Battle Resort]], where he joins his leader in thanking the player for stopping [[Team Magma]].

Matt appeared in ''[[PG08|The Cavern]]''. He was shown alongside some {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}}s contacting [[Archie]] and [[Shelly]] about the situation with [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Kyogre}} after it was reawakened. He explained that Primal Kyogre's powers could easily destroy the world.

===Pokémon Adventures===
In Pokémon Adventures, there are two Admins with the name "Matt".
[[File:Matt Adventures.png|thumb|200px|The first Matt in Pokémon Adventures]]

====First Matt====
Matt debuts in the {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}. He first appears as a {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}} alongside [[Shelly]] and {{adv|Amber}}. The three were tasked with stealing the heart component of the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] from [[Mr. Stone]]. When {{adv|Sapphire}} unintentionally thwarted their original plan to discreetly kidnap Mr. Stone, the three switched to a new plan and directly attacked Mr. Stone in public and stole the component. Sapphire, [[Gabby and Ty|Gabby, and Ty]] chased after the three and eventually arrived in [[Petalburg Woods]], where they were attacked by Matt, Shelly, and Amber in order to ensure that no witnesses to their crime would be left alive. With the help of Mr. Stone's {{p|Castform}}, Sapphire manages to escape, but is unable to retrieve the heart component.

Later, Matt, Shelly, and Amber are given promotions from Archie due to their good work. With this promotion, they are given the title [[Aqua Admin (Trainer class)#In the manga|Subleaders of the Sea Scheme]], or SSS for short. Archie is quick to remind his subordinates that they are still in trouble for leaving the witnesses alive.

The SSS travel to [[Mt. Chimney]] so that they can increase the sea level by stopping the volcano's activity. By pretending to be on the side of good, Team Aqua tricks [[Professor Cozmo]] into providing a special Meteorite that can stop Mt. Chimney. When they overhear Gym Leader [[Flannery]] talking about Sapphire, the SSS attack her in order to get information about their earlier opponent. Flannery is held captive by Matt so that he may lure Sapphire into a trap and kill her while the others finish their jobs. With the use of his Pokémon, Matt nearly drowns Sapphire and Flannery in the cable car, but Sapphire manages to drain the car and defeat Matt. Having won, Sapphire rushes over to stop Team Aqua, but Amber manages to stall her long enough for Shelly to kill Mt. Chimney. With their plan succeeded, Team Aqua escapes and takes Professor Cozmo with them.

When Team Magma and Team Aqua briefly join forces to journey to the bottom of the sea in the Submarine Explorer 1. Matt expresses excitement at the prospect of going to the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. When Archie questions if Matt would be able to go, Matt assures his leader that his injuries are almost healed. Archie then proceeds to have his {{p|Walrein}} knock Matt away. Matt is told that for his defeat at Mt. Chimney, he will be left behind and Amber will go in his place.

When {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} are awakened, the Gym Leaders split into groups in an attempt to stop both Pokémon. In order to prevent their opponents from keeping Kyogre from advancing, each of the SSS splits up and attacks a Gym Leader. Matt faces [[Winona]], and with his {{p|Sharpedo}}, he manages to prevent her {{p|Altaria}} from listening to her commands. Despite this, Matt struggles to fight Winona and is eventually defeated after Winona knocks him into the water as she goes to defend [[Flannery]] from Shelly. As he struggles to stay afloat, Matt begs Shelly to help him as she runs away after her battle ended. Shelly refuses and tells Matt to save himself.

In the Chuang Yi translation, he is known as '''Ark'''.

=====Pokémon=====
Matt owns the following Pokémon in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

{{TrainerPoké

|type1=Water
|type2=Dark
|img=Matt Sharpedo Adventures.png
|epnum=PS188
|epname=Lombre Larceny
|desc={{p|Sharpedo}} is Matt's first known Pokémon. It was first used to attack [[Mr. Stone]] at [[Rustboro City]] to steal the Submarine Explorer 1's heart component. At [[Mt. Chimney]], Matt used it to attack {{adv|Sapphire}} and [[Flannery]] after filling a cable car with water. During the battle, Sapphire broke off some of Sharpedo's fangs, which she used to open a hole in the car, draining the water and allowing her to breathe again. She then used her [[Rono]] to send Sharpedo and Matt flying out of the car. Later, it fought [[Winona]]'s {{p|Altaria}}. With its {{m|Taunt}}, Winona was unable to control her Altaria.

Sharpedo's known moves are {{m|Bite}} and {{m|Taunt}}, and its Ability is {{a|Rough Skin}}.}}

After defeating Sapphire's [[Chic]], he flooded the cable car so that Sapphire and Flannery would drown. He covered Matt's head in a bubble so that his Trainer wouldn't drown as well. When Sapphire drained the car, she used her Rono to send Azumarill flying alongside his Trainer and Sharpedo.

None of Azumarill's moves are known.}}

Later, it was used to help Matt battle Winona in the air. When Winona went to help Flannery, she knocked Matt off of Vibrava and into the water, defeating him.

None of Vibrava's moves are known, and its Ability is {{a|Levitate}}.}}

====Second Matt====
[[File:ORAS Magma Aqua Admins Adventures.png|thumb|250px|The second Matt in Pokémon Adventures]]
In the {{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, a second Matt appeared as a member of Neo Team Aqua (Japanese: '''新生アクア団''' ''Neo Aqua Gang''). He, along with a second Shelly, took the name of his predecessor as a codename.

In ''[[PS609|Kyogre Returns]]'', Matt appeared at [[Mossdeep City]] to help Zinnia interfere with the [[Devon Corporation]]'s plan to launch a rocket that would stop the [[Grand Meteor Delta|meteoroid]] threatening to destroy the world. Along with Courtney, Matt attacked Sapphire, distracting her long enough for Zinnia to land on the rocket. Sapphire dodged their attacks, allowing her to escape and pursue Zinnia.

In [[PS612]], the Admins were attacked by the Hoenn [[Frontier Brain]]s and defeated. The Brains attempted to interrogate the Admins on Zinnia's whereabouts, only for them to admit they had no idea where she ran off to.

==Trivia==
* In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Matt was originally conceived as a generic "tough guy" character; however, [[Hidenori Kusaka|Kusaka]] and [[Satoshi Yamamoto|Yamamoto]] decided that this approach was boring, and Matt was instead written as the most "sensitive and nervous" (「ウシオが一番繊細で神経質」) of the SSS Trio.<ref>[https://twitter.com/satoshi_swalot/status/150241273918394368 Satoshi Yamamoto's Twitter]</ref>

'''Tabitha''' (Japanese: '''ホムラ''' ''Homura'') is one of the {{tc|Magma Admin|Admin}}s of [[Team Magma]].

==In the core series games==
Tabitha plays a key role in the main story of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby}} and its remake {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Pokémon Omega Ruby}} as an Admin of the main villainous team, [[Team Magma]]. He makes only minor appearances in the corresponding games Pokémon Sapphire and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, as [[Team Aqua]] are the main villains of these games.

In Pokémon Ruby, Tabitha steals the [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] at [[Meteor Falls]] and brings it to [[Maxie]] at [[Mt. Chimney]]. At Mt. Chimney, the {{player}} has to battle him before battling Maxie and stopping his attempt to make the volcano erupt. Tabitha is next encountered at [[Slateport City]], assisting [[Maxie]] in stealing the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] in order to descend to [[Seafloor Cavern]]. He is later encountered again at the [[Team Magma Hideout|Magma Hideout]] outside [[Lilycove City]], battling the player to buy time for the submarine to escape.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Tabitha's role starts out the same way as in Ruby, with him stealing the Meteorite at Meteor Falls. However, now the second encounter with him happens at the {{OBP|Magma Hideout|Jagged Pass|new Magma Hideout}} inside Mt. Chimney, where the player must battle him in order to reach Maxie, who is in the process of awakening {{p|Groudon}}. After the player has defeated [[Tate and Liza]], Team Magma invades the [[Mossdeep Space Center]], intending to steal all of their rocket fuel and make Mt. Chimney erupt. The player teams up with {{Steven}} in a [[Multi Battle]] against Maxie and Tabitha, who will retreat after being defeated.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, his appearance is dramatically revamped, similarly to [[Matt]] and [[Shelly]]. In Pokémon Omega Ruby, Tabitha is revealed to have previously worked for [[Devon Corporation]], where he was nicknamed '''Tabitabi''' (Japanese: '''ホムホム''' ''Homuhomu''), and that he helped Team Magma gain access to their research, thus assisting them in the creation of the [[Magma Suit]]. Tabitha initially performs the same role as in Pokémon Ruby; unlike in Ruby, however, he is battled by the {{player}} and {{ga|May}}/{{ga|Brendan}} in a Multi Battle at Meteor Falls. Also, after the events at Mt. Chimney, he is encountered at the [[Weather Institute]], a role that was fulfilled by [[Courtney]] in Ruby. As Maxie prepares to awaken Groudon at Seafloor Cavern, Tabitha enters the Cavern to express his concern to Maxie about the {{a|Desolate Land|weather conditions}} created by Groudon. After Groudon's awakening, Tabitha and his boss head to [[Sootopolis City]], where they will hand the player the Magma Suit.

During the [[Delta Episode]], Tabitha is encountered at the Team Magma Hideout when [[Zinnia]] defeats Maxie and takes his [[Key Stone]]. Tabitha then begrudgingly gives a [[Cameruptite]] to the {{player}} upon Maxie's instructions, as Maxie can no longer use it to make his Camerupt [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. After the events of the Delta Episode, Tabitha is seen observing a conversation between Maxie and Courtney at the Team Magma Hideout, with Maxie apologizing to his subordinates for his actions.

In Omega Ruby, Tabitha is popular with Team Magma Grunts because of his helpfulness. Rumors suggest he aims to lead Team Magma.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160313232841/http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/characters/team-magma-and-team-aqua/team-magma-admin-tabitha Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire official website]</ref>

Tabitha's only appearance in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire happens during the player's initial visit to the [[Battle Resort]], where he and Courtney are bumped into by [[Wally]], much to their irritation.

Tabitha also appears in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version]], where he can be faced in a Multi Battle along with [[Matt]].

===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Tabitha anime.png|thumb|250px|Tabitha in ''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'']]
====History====
Though two Magma Admins appeared in the {{pkmn|games}}, only Tabitha appeared in {{aniseries|PTS}}. His first appearance was in the {{aniseries|RS}} episode ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]'', where he led a group of {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}s in an exploration of some ancient ruins on [[Dewford Town|Dewford Island]] in search of the [[Cave of Origin]]. They also had a confrontation with Team Aqua. Due to a dubbing error, he was mistakenly referred to as "Field Commander '''Harlan'''" during this episode, though his name was corrected in all subsequent appearances.

In ''[[AG036|The Spheal of Approval]]'', Tabitha and two grunts broke into the [[Oceanic Museum]] in order to steal a rock sample owned by [[Captain Stern]]. Although {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} attempted to stop them, Team Magma successfully made off with most of the sample.

In ''[[AG054|Fight for the Meteorite!]]'', Tabitha led a squad of grunts on a mission to [[Mt. Chimney]], first stealing a meteorite from [[Professor Cozmo]] and then using it to power an experimental machine affecting the volcano. However, their plans were ultimately thwarted by Ash and Cozmo.

His final appearances were in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''. His submarine accidentally picked up Ash and his friends while out on patrol, bringing them to Team Magma's base. He was present for the battle between {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Kyogre}} and {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Groudon}}, and, like the rest of Team Magma, has not been seen since.

====Character====
Tabitha is an intimidating individual. He and [[Shelly]] have a rivalry with one another, often exchanging insults and battling one another. His loyalty to [[Team Magma]] came into doubt after seeing the destructive power of the [[Red Orb]] in ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.

==In the manga==
===Ash & Pikachu===
Tabitha appeared in ''[[SP23|Two Groups Attacking! Magma VS. Aqua]]'' along with the other members of Team Magma.
{{sectionstub}}
===Pokémon Adventures===
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], there are two Admins with the name "Tabitha".
[[File:Tabitha Adventures.png|thumb|200px|The first Tabitha in Pokémon Adventures]]

====First Tabitha====
The first Tabitha debuted in the {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}. He is one of the [[Magma Admin (Trainer class)#In the manga|Three Fires]] of Team Magma, alongside Courtney and [[Blaise]]. Like other members of Team Magma, the horns on Tabitha's hood can be removed to reveal a special lighter that can transmit and record images through its flame. Like the other Three Fires, Tabitha specializes in using flames to his advantage. In his case, Tabitha uses the smoke from his {{p|Torkoal}} to make his targets drowsy.

He first appears alongside Courtney on the [[Abandoned Ship]], where they were sent to obtain the [[Scanner]] hidden aboard. There, they meet {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}, both of which attempt to keep the Scanner out of Tabitha and Courtney's hands. In the end, Ruby and Sapphire escape, but Tabitha and Courtney manage to obtain the Scanner. The Scanner is later given to Blaise, who modifies it to search for the [[Red Orb|Red]] and [[Blue Orb]]s. At Slateport City, Tabitha, Courtney, and Blaise are sent to capture [[Captain Stern]] and his assistant, [[Dock]] in order to obtain the Submarine Explorer 1. In the end, Blaise manages to obtain the submarine for Team Magma's use.

Tabitha later appears at Mt. Chimney, which had its volcanic activity stopped by Team Aqua. There, he encounters [[Flannery]], a Gym Leader who fought Team Aqua but failed to stop their plan to kill Mt. Chimney. They teamed up to try and revive the volcano, but their attempts only brought it back for a short time. Angered at this failure, Tabitha cursed Team Aqua and returned to Team Magma's base.

With Team Magma possessing the Submarine Explorer 1 and Team Aqua possessing the heart component needed to keep it stable while underwater, both teams decide to have a temporary truce and head to the Seafloor Cavern together. When Team Magma and Aqua meet, they fit the Submarine Explorer 1 with its heart component and head underwater. After meeting with each other and completing the submarine, Tabitha and several Team Magma Grunts head underwater with Maxie. Upon arriving, the teams end their truce and proceed to head their separate ways. Archie manages to awaken Kyogre first, giving the advantage to Team Aqua. Despite this, Maxie uses the Red and Blue Orbs Blaise obtained from Mt. Pyre to control both super-ancient Pokémon to give Groudon an advantage over Kyogre. The strain of using both Orbs exhausts Maxie, so he hands the Blue Orb to Tabitha so he can control Kyogre.

Finding Kyogre's behavior suspicious, Archie sends {{adv|Amber}} to investigate Team Magma. Amber finds Tabitha with the Blue Orb and attacks him to take it for Archie. The battle leads them into the Submarine Explorer 1, but Amber succeeds in obtaining the Blue Orb. Immediately after handing it over, Archie betrays Amber and sends the submarine into the ocean depths without the heart component, leaving Tabitha and Amber to die as the submarine breaks apart. Tabitha and Amber work together to keep the submarine afloat and preventing water from flowing inside, but it eventually breaks apart, sending both into the water. After attempting to save both himself and Amber by swimming to the surface, Tabitha is rescued by Blaise.

When the Gym Leaders split into groups in an attempt to stop both Pokémon, the Admins of Teams Magma and Aqua split up to stop them. Tabitha is paired up against [[Wallace]], who he drags to an abandoned Lilycove City to battle in Lilycove Department Store. After being easily defeated, Tabitha suddenly goes crazy and begins attacking wildly. Wallace is saved by {{Steven}}, who reveals that coming in contact with the Blue Orb caused Tabitha to lose control of himself. Steven stays behind to battle Tabitha and sends Wallace to assist in the battle against Groudon and Kyogre at Sootopolis City. Later, Steven defeats Tabitha, allowing to head to Sootopolis as well.

After Groudon and Kyogre are defeated, Tabitha returns to a normal life. He is seen visiting the Lavaridge Hot Springs, which were reopened after Groudon went to sleep in Mt. Chimney, reviving its volcanic activity.

In the Chuang Yi translations, he is known as '''Mitch'''.

Amber's {{p|Volbeat}} used {{m|Trick}} to switch the Blue Orb with a Figy Berry. When Tabitha and Amber were trapped inside the submarine, Torkoal used his smoke to keep the submarine afloat. At Lilycove Museum, he fought against Wallace's {{p|Whiscash}}, but was defeated.

Torkoal's known moves are {{m|Yawn}}, {{m|Heat Wave}}, {{m|Smog}}, and {{m|Body Slam}}, and his Ability is {{a|White Smoke}}.}}

====Second Tabitha====
[[File:ORAS Magma Aqua Admins Adventures.png|thumb|250px|The second Tabitha in Pokémon Adventures]]
In the {{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, a second Tabitha appeared as a member of Neo Team Magma (Japanese: '''新生マグマ団''' ''Neo Magma Gang''). He, along with a second Courtney, took the name of his predecessor as a codename. He and the second Shelly were former researchers for the [[Devon Corporation]], but eventually left due to being fed up with [[Mr. Stone]]'s policies.

In ''[[PS609|Kyogre Returns]]'', Tabitha appeared at [[Mossdeep City]] to help Zinnia interfere with the [[Devon Corporation]]'s plan to launch a rocket that would stop the [[Grand Meteor Delta|meteoroid]] threatening to destroy the world. The Admins kept Sapphire distracted long enough for Zinnia to land on the rocket. Sapphire dodged their attacks, allowing her to escape and pursue Zinnia.

In [[PS612]], the Admins were attacked by the Hoenn [[Frontier Brain]]s and defeated. The Brains attempted to interrogate the Admins on Zinnia's whereabouts, only for them to admit they had no idea where she ran off to. In [[PS616]], Tabitha and Shelly were called to [[Sootopolis City]] to assist in saving the planet from destruction. Tabitha provided Ruby with a [[Magma Suit]] to wear while he and Sapphire rode {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} into space to confront the meteoroid.

==Trivia==
* Tabitha, like [[Shelly]], has been the subject of two name changes over two different mediums: '''Harlan''' in the {{pkmn|animated series}} and '''Mitch''' in the Chuang Yi translation of [[Pokémon Adventures]]. "Harlan" was later corrected to Tabitha after his initial debut; he remained "Mitch" throughout the entire {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}} in Chuang Yi's version.
* The name {{wp|Tabitha}} is exclusively feminine. Despite this, Tabitha is male.

'''Archie''' (Japanese: '''アオギリ''' ''Aogiri'') is the head of [[Team Aqua]]. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es '''Aqua Leader''' (Japanese: '''アクアだんリーダー''' ''Team Aqua Leader'') and '''Team Aqua''' (Japanese: '''{{j|アクアだん}}''' ''Team Aqua'').

==In the core series games==

In {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}}, Archie helps the {{player}} against [[Team Magma]]. He does not have an active role in the storyline and cannot be battled.

In {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}}, {{v2|Emerald}}, and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire}}, he first appears in the [[Oceanic Museum]] in Slateport City, trying to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]]{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}}/[[Devon Parts]]{{sup/6|AS}} from [[Captain Stern]]. In Sapphire and Alpha Sapphire, Team Aqua members later steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] and try to turn [[Mt. Chimney]] into a lake{{sup/3|S}}/to fashion a Mega Stone for Kyogre{{sup/6|AS}}. In Emerald, he instead appears with Aqua members at Meteor Falls, and acts as a temporary ally with the player against Team Magma who instead have stolen the Meteorite and are trying to find {{p|Groudon}}. After, thanking the player for his help and briefly asking if he is on their side, he departs and is not seen for a while. [[Shelly]] and several grunts later raid the [[Weather Institute]], and Archie steals the [[Red Orb]]{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}}/[[Blue Orb]]{{sup/6|AS}} from [[Mt. Pyre]]. Later, he and the Team Aqua members turn up in Slateport again as Captain Stern announces a discovery he has made about [[Seafloor Cavern|a seafloor cavern]]. Team Aqua promptly steals the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern has built and goes for the Seafloor Cavern to awaken {{p|Kyogre}}. However he is unable to control the Legendary Pokémon. After, Kyogre is calmed, Archie sees the error of his ways and disbands Team Aqua after returning the stolen orb.

During the [[Delta Episode]] in Alpha Sapphire, Archie is first seen in his hideout, where [[Zinnia]] shows up to take his [[Key Stone]] in order to summon {{p|Rayquaza}}, doing so just as the player reaches his room. Afterwards, Archie has [[Matt]] hand the player his [[Sharpedonite]], figuring that now that he's lost his Key Stone, he no longer has need for the [[Mega Stone]], either. After the events of the Delta Episode, he apologizes his Admins for his actions, deciding to start anew as a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Later, Archie can be chosen as a [[Multi Battle]] partner at the [[Battle Maison]].

In Omega Ruby, Archie and his Admins appear at the [[Battle Resort]] when the player first visits it after the Delta Episode. During the brief meeting, Archie alludes to his role in Alpha Sapphire, but dismisses such possibility as nonsense, before having Matt give the player a Sharpedonite.

An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Archie, as he appears in [[Generation III]], appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. He is one of the first pair of bosses the player must face, along with [[Maxie]]. When the player reaches him in [[Team Rocket's Castle]], he expresses dismay that the player defeated his {{tc|Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt}}s, considering them his crew even though they are not members of Team Aqua. Archie explains that, in the world he came from, he successfully completed his plans to expand the oceans, only to be swallowed by a massive tidal wave during his moment of victory, subsequently finding himself in the game's world. Though he intends to return to his world, he decides to use Kyogre to turn the game's world into his ideal state as well. He battles the player and, despite using Kyogre against them, loses. He then allows the player to activate the switch in his office painting so they may advance. Later, Archie enters the main hall of the castle while [[Guzma]] is helping the player hold off two Team Rainbow Rocket Grunts, only to encounter Maxie, mistaking him for the Maxie from his universe. The two decide to battle to resolve their conflict once and for all, only to be warped away by a [[Colress|mysterious force]] as they leave.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Archie anime.png|thumb|250px|Archie in ''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'']]
====History====
Archie debuted in the {{aniseries|RS}} episode ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''. After [[Shelly]], acting on Archie's orders, successfully released {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Kyogre}} from Team Magma's mobile sea base, Archie emerged from the sea inside Team Aqua's submarine, and used the [[Red Orb]], which had recently come in his possession, to take control of Kyogre, having it destroy the base completely as Team Magma narrowly escaped. Later, on [[Monsu Island]], Archie met up with [[Maxie]] and negotiated the release of two {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}s in exchange for the [[Blue Orb]], not knowing that it had already been absorbed by [[Ash's Pikachu]]. When {{TRT}} invaded Team Aqua's submarine in an attempt to steal Kyogre, Archie accused Team Magma of being behind it.
[[File:Red Orb possession.png|thumb|250px|left|Archie possessed by the Red Orb]]
In ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', Team Rocket's unsuccessful stealing attempt caused Kyogre to be released into the ocean. As a result, Archie took flight with his personal miniature aircraft, and started controlling Kyogre from midair using the Red Orb. However, it was revealed that the Orb was actually controlling him instead; maddened by its effects, he intended to sink the entire island into the ocean, not caring that many of his own men were still on it. When [[Lance]] tried to retrieve the Red Orb from Archie, he had Kyogre attack the {{pkmn|Champion}}-level {{pkmn|Trainer}}, and it proved to be extremely strong, easily countering [[Lance's Gyarados]]'s {{m|Hyper Beam}} with its own. Suddenly, the Red Orb absorbed itself into Archie's body, bonding with him and driving him further into insanity.

After Pikachu freed {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Groudon}} from Team Aqua's submarine, the two [[Legendary Pokémon]] started battling each other. Soon, Lance understood that Groudon was trying to stop Kyogre from sinking the island into the sea, so {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} decided to help it to do so. Having {{TP|May|Beautifly}} and {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}} attack Archie's aircraft, {{an|May}} and {{an|Brock}} managed to distract Archie and Kyogre long enough for Groudon to fire a {{m|Solar Beam}} at the Sea Basin Pokémon, defeating it. The Red Orb then debonded with Archie, causing him to lose consciousness and fall off his aircraft, only to be caught mid-fall by [[Lance's Dragonite]]. When Archie later woke up, he seemed to have forgotten everything, asking Shelly what happened. He then united everyone else around to watch as the Orbs disappeared, freeing Kyogre and Groudon and allowing them to return to their natural habitats. It is unknown what happened to Archie or the rest of Team Aqua after this point.

Archie made an appearance in ''[[PG08|The Cavern]]''. He, along with some [[Team Aqua]] [[Team Aqua Grunt (Trainer class)|Grunts]], were seen exploring the [[Seafloor Cavern]] in search of {{p|Kyogre}}. When it was eventually found, Archie used the [[Blue Orb]] to awaken Kyogre's [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] form, against [[Shelly]]'s wishes. He was last seen aboard the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] with Shelly, being attacked by Primal Kyogre.

====History====
====={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}=====
Archie is one of the two main antagonists of this chapter. He leads Team Aqua in their quest to awaken {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Kyogre}} to expand the sea. Team Aqua clashes with Team Magma, who aim to awaken {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Groudon}} to expand the land. Archie also serves as the head of [[TV Mauville|Hoenn TV]], which he manipulates to create anti-Team Magma propaganda while covering up the actions of his own team.

Archie debuts in ''[[PS188|Lombre Larceny]]'', where he leads Shelly, Matt, and {{adv|Amber}} in stealing the heart component for the Submarine Explorer 1. Although the three succeed in their mission, Archie berates them for not finishing off {{adv|Sapphire}}, [[Gabby and Ty|Gabby, and Ty]], who had seen the entire incident. Despite this, he promotes the three to admin status and names the [[Aqua Admin (Trainer class)#In the manga|Subleaders of the Sea Scheme]].

After Team Aqua manages to successfully stop the volcanic activity of Mt. Chimney, Archie is attacked by Maxie. Maxie furiously blames Team Aqua for their propaganda and challenges Archie to a battle. Archie agrees, but the battle ends in a tie despite Archie's type advantage. The two leaders stop fighting after realizing that neither team will accomplish their goals when each has an important piece required to awaken their respective super-ancient Pokémon rests. They decide that the best option is a temporary truce so that both teams will head to the Seafloor Cavern together. When Team Aqua and Magma meet, they fit the Submarine Explorer 1 with its heart component and head underwater.

Upon arriving, the teams end their truce and proceed to head their separate ways. Archie manages to awaken Kyogre first, giving the advantage to Team Aqua. Despite this, Kyogre stops moving from where it emerged while Groudon continues expanding its influence over the Hoenn region. Finding this suspicious, Archie assumes it's the work of Maxie and sends Amber to investigate. Amber heads over and discovers that Team Magma secretly had the Red and Blue Orbs, two jewels that can control Groudon and Kyogre. Amber attacks Tabitha and steals the Blue Orbs for Archie. Although Amber asks his leader for help, Archie instead locks the two inside the Submarine Explorer 1 and sends it to the bottom of the sea without the heart component needed to survive the undersea pressure. With the Blue Orb now in his possession, Archie begins to use it to control Kyogre.

[[File:Archie ORAS chapter.png|thumb|left|130px|Archie in the thirteenth chapter]]
The power of the Red and Blue Orbs proves to be too much for Archie and Maxie, who are later possessed by Kyogre and Groudon instead. The two are confronted by {{adv|Ruby}} and Sapphire, who had arrived to defeat the two villains. Ruby and Sapphire begin battling Archie and Maxie, but note their behavior to be strange. Despite this, Ruby and Sapphire manage to stop Archie and Maxie's movements, leaving them enough time to remove the Orbs from their hands. When Ruby attempts to remove the Orbs from Archie and Maxie, he notices that the Orbs are now stuck to the leaders' hands. The Orbs recede into Archie and Maxie's bodies, fully putting them under the control of Kyogre and Groudon. With their new power, Archie and Maxie take Ruby, Sapphire, and all the Team Aqua and Magma Grunts back to the surface.

They fly to Sootopolis City, where Kyogre and Groudon had gone to finish their battle. The two leaders begin fighting together their respective super-ancient Pokémon. Archie and Maxie are finally defeated when Ruby and Sapphire use a piece of the Grand Meteor combined with their Pokémon's attacks to force the Red and Blue Orbs out of Archie and Maxie's bodies. The plan works, but it causes the Orbs to move to Ruby and Sapphire's bodies and creates an explosion that sends them flying.

Sometime later, Ruby returns and teams up with [[Courtney]] to stop Kyogre and Groudon once and for all. Their plan fails, and a hidden Archie kills Courtney by dragging her into a collapsing Cave of Origin. After Kyogre and Groudon are successfully defeated with the assistance of {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} and [[Norman]], Archie and Maxie reveal themselves and attempt to kill Ruby to take back the Orbs and awaken Kyogre and Groudon again. They are approached by the Champion [[Wallace]], who attacks the two leaders to rescue Ruby. Wallace is forced to give up when Archie and Maxie reveal they are keeping [[Winona]] hostage, leaving him open to be attacked and defeated.

Victorious, Archie and Maxie gloat over the heroes' defeat only to be interrupted by the appearance of Ruby's {{p|Feebas}}, [[Feefee]]. Feefee attempts to stop Archie and Maxie, but is easily swatted away. Archie and Maxie begin beating Feefee and insult her ragged appearance. Seeing this angers Ruby, who states that Feefee possesses beauty on the inside even if her outside is ugly. This change in hear allows Feefee to evolve into a {{p|Milotic}}. Ruby and Feefee team up with Sapphire to battle and finally defeat Archie and Maxie's Pokémon. Archie and Maxie still refuse to give up and escape with the Orbs in Wallace's aircar. By powering up their {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} with the New Mauville generator, Ruby and Sapphire finish Archie and Maxie off by trapping them in a dome of electricity.

====={{MangaArc|Emerald}}=====
It is revealed that Archie and Maxie were rescued from the electrical sphere by [[Sird]]. Sird reveals that Archie and Maxie's bodies are breaking down due to the effect of letting Kyogre and Groudon possess them. She offers a suit of armor to one of the villains that can slow down the process of their decaying, but only to whomever defeats the other in battle. Archie manages to defeat Maxie and wins the armor, this becoming the armored man, [[Guile Hideout]].

====={{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}=====
Archie is revealed to still be alive. Along with Maxie, Archie travels to the Kanto region, where they find {{adv|Bill}}, who had obtained the shattered remains of the Red and Blue Orbs from Team Rocket in the {{MangaArc|FireRed & LeafGreen}}. They attack Bill and steal the shards from him, which have now regenerated back into their original forms as Orbs. They steal Bill's boat and use it to travel back to the Hoenn region. Upon arriving, Archie and Maxie are approached by {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Green}}, two Kanto Pokédex holders that are friends with Bill. Red and Green attack Maxie and Archie to avenge their injured friend and retrieve the stolen Orbs. To combat their opponents, Archie and Maxie reveal they have learned to use Mega Evolution and use it to face the two Pokédex holders, who counter with their own Mega-Evolved Pokémon.

The battle is interrupted by Amber and [[Blaise]]. Although Blaise finds the new appearance of their leaders suspicious, Amber reveals that they summoned Kyogre and Groudon from their resting places with the power of {{p|Hoopa}}. Immediately after, Kyogre and Groudon appear, having followed the presence of the Orbs. Archie and Maxie use the Orbs to revert Kyogre and Groudon into their Primal forms, greatly increasing their power to the point where they easily defeat Red and Green. Kyogre and Groudon's rampage is interrupted by Ruby and {{adv|Emerald}}, who attempt to fight the super-ancient Pokémon but are unable to damage them. Archie and Maxie use Kyogre and Groudon to easily blast Ruby and Emerald out of the sky, easily defeating them. With their opponents on the ground, Archie and Maxie gloat over their victory and reveal that their return is all for the sake of saving the planet from the [[Grand Meteor Delta|meteoroid]] threatening to destroy it.

Later, at the [[Meteor Village]], Archie trains alongside Maxie in order to teach Kyogre {{m|Origin Pulse}}. They were given a training space by the village {{OBP|Elder|Meteor Village}}, who agreed to help in their attempt to stop the meteoroid. After a day, Archie and Maxie finish their training and exit their training space. Just as they do so, Rayquaza sees Kyogre and Groudon through Hoopa's ring and attempts to attack by flying towards the ring. The experience scares Hoopa, causing it to accidentally send Rayquaza to another ring connecting the village to {{rt|120|Hoenn}}. Archie and Maxie chase after Rayquaza and arrive at Route 120 by forcing their way through Hoopa's ring. They decide to test the moves Kyogre and Groudon learned on Rayquaza, but are interrupted by chunks of the meteoroid falling down on them. To destroy the chunks, Archie, Maxie, Ruby, and Sapphire combine the powers of Primal Kyogre, Primal Groudon and Rayquaza into a single attack.

As the three super-ancient Pokémon's attack struggles to destroy the meteoroid chunk, Archie and Maxie's bodies run out of energy and begin to break down. The combined attack eventually breaks the meteoroid chunk into pieces, which fall onto Kyogre and Groudon, knocking them out. After watching from afar, Amber and Blaise go down to see if their leaders are safe, only to find them both in the process of fading away. Archie and Maxie explain to the two that after their "deaths", their spirits ended up in [[Distortion World|another world]], where they at one point melded together and became one. After a [[PS460|hole]] to the real world was opened, an unknown voice called out to them, asking to protect the planet. After escaping from the world, they regained their bodies, albeit slightly different, gained Mega Evolution, and stole the orbs from Bill in order to save the planet from destruction. Just as they disappear completely, Archie and Maxie ask their subordinates to protect the planet.

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

Although the Pokédex holders fought with powerful moves, Walrein and Camerupt emerged the victors, but left their Trainers open to be attacked. At Sootopolis City, Archie sent out Walrein to battle Mumu and Chic once again. This time, Walrein was defeated by a combination of {{m|Sky Uppercut}} and {{m|Muddy Water}}. Afterward, Archie sent out four more Walrein to distract Ruby and Sapphire while he and Maxie escaped. One is level 69, has a Lonely nature, and his [[Characteristic]] is "very finicky."

In the thirteenth chapter, Kyogre is awakened from its slumber by {{p|Hoopa}}, who was manipulated by [[Blaise]] and Amber to summon the super-ancient Pokémon so they can achieve Primal Reversion.

==Trivia==
[[File:Archie lookalike Legends.png|thumb|250px|A portrait of the man who resembles Archie in [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]]]
* In {{game|Emerald}}, the {{player}} battles Archie only once, while [[Maxie]] is fought three times.
* In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, Archie's height is 5'9" (1.75m); the [[Pokémon Omega Ruby & Pokémon Alpha Sapphire: The Official Hoenn Region Strategy Guide|guide]] that contains his concept art mistakenly says he is 5'7" (1.7m).
* Some of Archie's lines in [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] are the same as [[Maxie]]'s lines in Pokémon Ruby.
* Pokémon Sapphire contains [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta|unused Trainer data]] for Archie in which he has only a level 17 {{p|Huntail}} and a level 17 {{p|Sharpedo}} and is carrying two [[Super Potion]]s.
* In Omega Ruby, a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}} at the [[Team Magma Hideout]] mentions that Archie and Maxie used to be on the same team once.
* In Alpha Sapphire, [[Shelly]]'s room at the [[Team Aqua Hideout]] contains a picture of Archie and Shelly as children with {{p|Jirachi}}, making Archie the only villainous team leader known to have met a [[Mythical Pokémon]].
* Although Archie in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} is based on his design in [[Generation III]], his dialogue is based on his quotes in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
* In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], a portrait of a man who resembles Archie is found within houses at the [[Pearl Clan]] [[Pearl Settlement|settlement]]. The relationship between the two, if any, is unknown.

'''Maxie''' (Japanese: '''マツブサ''' ''Matsubusa'') is the head of [[Team Magma]]. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es '''Magma Leader''' (Japanese: '''マグマだんリーダー''' ''Team Magma Leader'') and '''Team Magma''' (Japanese: '''{{j|マグマだん}}''' ''Team Magma'').

==In the core series games==
[[File:Maxie Meteor Falls ORAS.png|thumb|200px|Maxie at Meteor Falls]]
In {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}}, Maxie helps the {{player}} against [[Team Aqua]]. He does not have an active role in the storyline and cannot be battled.

In {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}} and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby}}, he first appears in an attempt to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Devon Parts]]{{sup/6|OR}} from [[Captain Stern]] at the [[Oceanic Museum]] in Slateport City. Later, Team Magma members steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it in an attempt to erupt [[Mt. Chimney]]{{sup/3|R}}/to fashion an artificial [[Mega Stone]] for {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}}. In {{game|Emerald}}, he first appears in Meteor Falls, stealing the Meteorite in an attempt to light up the crater within Mt. Chimney. Then, in {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby|s}} and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby}}, after [[Courtney]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Tabitha]]{{sup/6|OR}} raids the [[Weather Institute]], Maxie steals the [[Blue Orb]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Red Orb]]{{sup/6|OR}} from [[Mt. Pyre]]. Later, he and the Team Magma members turn up in Slateport again as Captain Stern announces a discovery he has made about the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. Team Magma promptly steals the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern has built and goes for the Seafloor Cavern to awaken Groudon. In Emerald, after failing at the summit of Mt. Chimney, Maxie instead sends Team Magma members to make {{OBP|Magma Hideout|Jagged Pass|a secret hideout}} which has been moved inside the volcano.

Maxie finally awakens Groudon using the colored Orb stolen from Mt. Pyre, although he quickly loses the control over the Legendary Pokémon. Later, Team Magma raids the [[Mossdeep Space Center]], trying to use the rocket fuel to make Mt. Chimney erupt. The protagonist and {{Steven}} appear just in time to stop him and [[Tabitha]] from achieving this. When defeated a third time, Maxie sees the error of his ways, later disbanding Team Magma and attempting to stop Groudon and Kyogre's fight.

In Ruby and Emerald, after Groudon is calmed, he returns the Blue Orb to Mt. Chimney, disbands Team Magma, and is never seen again. In Omega Ruby, the energy amassed in the Cave's jewels emit a green beam skyward after Primal Groudon is defeated, which casts an emerald spectrum of falling lights across the region. Maxie, profoundly affected by the experience, is at first hesitant to accept [[Archie]]'s offer to start over, believing himself unworthy of redemption. However, Tabitha encourages him to at least try, offering his continued loyalty to him from that point onward. Softly thanking his Admin, Maxie willingly relinquishes the Red Orb to the player and departs with Archie to begin their mutual reformation.

During the [[Delta Episode]], Maxie is confronted in the Magma Hideout by one of his former grunts, [[Zinnia]], who is stealing Key Stones in order to summon and Mega Evolve {{p|Rayquaza}}. When his Key Stone is stolen, he entrusts the player with his Cameruptite to stop Zinnia's apparent rampage. When the world is spared from the meteor, Maxie summons [[Courtney]] to his quarters, where she tearfully apologizes for her recklessness. Shocked by the sight of his normally stoic Admin crying, Maxie agrees to forgive her on the condition that she forgives his actions and conduct, recognizing that this and the failure of their plans drove her into despair. He explains his intent to start Team Magma over, having learned the importance of understanding and working with even those he disagrees with, to which she accepts. He welcomes the player to visit them in their hideout anytime, taking on the role of a friend to them. This friendship even extends to being available to partner with them in the [[Battle Maison]]'s Multi Battle mode.

In Alpha Sapphire, Maxie and his Admins make a brief reappearance at the [[Battle Resort]] when the player first visits the location with [[Wally]] after the Delta Episode. During the encounter, Maxie ponders the possibility of him having been the villain the player would've had to stop instead of Archie, alluding to his role in Omega Ruby. However, he disregards such thoughts as mere fantasy, and has Courtney hand the player a [[Cameruptite]] before leaving.

An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Maxie, in his [[Generation III]] design, appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. He is one of the first two bosses the player must face, along with Archie. When the player reaches him in [[Team Rocket's Castle]], he reveals that, in the world he came from, he succeeded in enacting his plans to expand the planet's landmass, only to be dropped into a great fissure that opened up beneath him. When he came to, he discovered that he was in the game's world. Though he does intend to go back to his world, he declares his intent to use Groudon to turn the game's world into his ideal state as well. After being defeated in battle — despite using Groudon against the player — he allows the player to activate the switch hidden in his room's painting so they may progress further. He later comes out into the castle's main hall while [[Guzma]] is helping to hold two {{tc|Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt}}s at bay, only to come face-to-face with Archie, mistaking him for the Archie from his universe. The two exchange words and decide to battle each other in order to see which of them gets to rule [[Alola]], but as they leave, they are both warped away by an [[Colress|invisible force]].

[[File:Maxie anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Maxie in ''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'']]
====History====
Maxie first appeared in the {{aniseries|RS}} episode ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''. His goal was to expand the land of [[Hoenn]], believing that if so, the land would be peaceful. After Team Magma captured {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} aboard their mobile sea base, they brought them to Maxie. He explained to the group his goals and how Team Magma was going to accomplish them through {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Groudon}}. In the process, he revealed that Team Magma has possession over a [[Blue Orb]], an item capable of controlling Groudon, as well as {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Kyogre}}. Meanwhile, Shelly, who was working undercover as a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}, released Kyogre from its captivity, thus sending it on a rampage that causes Maxie to lose the Blue Orb to {{AP|Pikachu}}, who unwittingly absorbed it. After Team Magma's base was destroyed by Kyogre, Maxie met up with [[Archie]] on [[Monsu Island]] and negotiated a trade: Team Aqua will release two Team Magma Grunts in exchange for the Blue Orb. However, the exchange is interrupted by {{TRT}}'s intrusion of Team Aqua's submarine; Archie accused Team Magma of being behind it, but Maxie denied any involvement.
[[File:Maxie Blue Orb.png|thumb|200px|Maxie and the Blue Orb]]
In ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', Archie immediately seized control over Kyogre with the [[Red Orb]] in his possession, triggering a battle between Team Magma and Team Aqua. Archie then bonded with the Red Orb, but he was maddened by its effects and announced his intent to engulf the entire island in the ocean, risking the lives of everyone on it, including his own men. Maxie, acting out of seemingly genuine concern, tried to point this out to Archie, but he refused to listen. Later, as Groudon and Kyogre prepared to battle, Maxie listened to [[Lance]]'s speech about how such a conflict posed a threat to the entire world. Eventually, the fight between Kyogre and Groudon was put to an end through the efforts of Ash, his friends, and Lance. Afterwards, Maxie realized the errors of his ways and finally changed his beliefs, now believing that the land of Hoenn is supposed to be kept as is.

====History====
====={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}=====
[[File:Maxie Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Maxie in the fourth chapter]]
Maxie is one of the two main antagonists of this chapter. He leads Team Magma in their quest to awaken {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Groudon}} to expand the land. Team Magma clashes with Team Aqua, who aim to awaken {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Kyogre}} to expand the sea.

Maxie debuts in ''[[PS200|Tripped Up by Torkoal]]'', where he meets with Tabitha, Courtney, and [[Blaise]] after the successful obtaining of the [[Scanner]]. When Blaise reveals that the Submarine Explorer 1 is almost complete, Maxie sends the three to Slateport City to steal it.

After Team Aqua manages to successfully stop the volcanic activity of Mt. Chimney, Maxie attacks Archie. Maxie confronts Archie's manipulation of [[TV Mauville|Hoenn TV]] to create anti-Team Magma propaganda and challenges him to a battle. Archie agrees, but the battle ends in a tie despite Archie's type advantage. The two leaders stop fighting after realizing that neither team will accomplish their goals when each has an important piece required to awaken their respective super-ancient Pokémon rests. They decide that the best option is a temporary truce so that both teams will head to the Seafloor Cavern together. When Team Magma and Aqua meet, they fit the Submarine Explorer 1 with its heart component and head underwater.

Upon arriving, the teams end their truce and proceed to head their separate ways. Archie manages to awaken Kyogre first, giving the advantage to Team Aqua. Despite this, Maxie uses the Red and Blue Orbs Blaise obtained from Mt. Pyre to control both super-ancient Pokémon to give Groudon an advantage over Kyogre. The strain of using both Orbs exhausts Maxie, so he hands the Blue Orb to Tabitha so he can control Kyogre. Finding Kyogre's behavior suspicious, sends {{adv|Amber}} to take the Blue Orb from Tabitha. With the Blue Orb now in his possession, Archie begins to use it to control Kyogre.

The power of the Red and Blue Orbs proves to be too much for Maxie and Archie, who are later possessed by Groudon and Kyogre instead. The two are confronted by {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}, who had arrived to defeat the two villains. Ruby and Sapphire begin battling Maxie and Archie, but note their behavior to be strange. Despite this, Ruby and Sapphire manage to stop Maxie and Archie's movements, leaving them enough time to remove the Orbs from their hands. When Ruby attempts to remove the Orbs from Archie and Maxie, he notices that the Orbs are now stuck to the leaders' hands. The Orbs recede into Maxie and Archie's bodies, fully putting them under the control of Kyogre and Groudon. With their new power, Maxie and Archie take Ruby, Sapphire, and all the Team Aqua and Magma Grunts back to the surface.

They fly to Sootopolis City, where Groudon and Kyogre had gone to finish their battle. The two leaders begin fighting together their respective super-ancient Pokémon. Maxie and Archie are finally defeated when Ruby and Sapphire use a piece of the Grand Meteor combined with their Pokémon's attacks to force the Red and Blue Orbs out of Maxie and Archie's bodies. The plan works, but it causes the Orbs to move to Ruby and Sapphire's bodies and creates an explosion that sends them flying.

Sometime later, Ruby returns and teams up with Courtney to stop Kyogre and Groudon once and for all. Their plan fails, and a hidden Maxie and Archie kills Courtney by dragging her into a collapsing Cave of Origin. After Groudon and Kyogre are successfully defeated with the assistance of {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} and [[Norman]], Maxie and Archie reveal themselves and attempt to kill Ruby to take back the Orbs and awaken Groudon and Kyogre again. They are approached by the Champion [[Wallace]], who attacks the two leaders to rescue Ruby. Wallace is forced to give up when Maxie and Archie reveal they are keeping [[Winona]] hostage, leaving him open to be attacked and defeated.

Victorious, Maxie and Archie gloat over the heroes' defeat only to be interrupted by the appearance of Ruby's {{p|Feebas}}, [[Feefee]]. Feefee attempts to stop Maxie and Archie, but is easily swatted away. Maxie and Archie begin beating Feefee and insult her ragged appearance. Seeing this angers Ruby, who states that Feefee possesses beauty on the inside even if her outside is ugly. This change in hear allows Feefee to evolve into a {{p|Milotic}}. Ruby and Feefee team up with Sapphire to battle and finally defeat Maxie and Archie's Pokémon. Maxie and Archie still refuse to give up and escape with the Orbs in Wallace's aircar. By powering up their {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} with the New Mauville generator, Ruby and Sapphire finish Maxie and Archie off by trapping them in a dome of electricity.

====={{MangaArc|Emerald}}=====
It is revealed that Maxie and Archie were rescued from the electrical sphere by [[Sird]]. Sird reveals that Maxie and Archie's bodies are breaking down due to the effect of letting Kyogre and Groudon possess them. She offers a suit of armor to one of the villains that can slow down the process of their decaying, but only to whomever defeats the other in battle. Archie manages to defeat Maxie and wins the armor, thus becoming the armored man, [[Guile Hideout]].

====={{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}=====
[[File:Maxie ORAS chapter.png|thumb|140px|Maxie in the thirteenth chapter]]
Maxie is revealed to still be alive. Alongside Archie, Maxie travels to the Kanto region, where they find {{adv|Bill}}, who had obtained the shattered remains of the Red and Blue Orbs from Team Rocket in the {{MangaArc|FireRed & LeafGreen}}. They attack Bill and steal the shards from him, which have now regenerated back into their forms as Orbs. They steal Bill's boat and use it to travel back to the Hoenn region. Upon arriving, Maxie and Archie are approached by {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Green}}, two Kanto Pokédex holders that are friends with Bill. Red and Green attack Maxie and Archie to avenge their injured friend and retrieve the stolen Orbs. To combat their opponents, Maxie and Archie reveal they have learned to use Mega Evolution and use it to face the two Pokédex holders, who counter with their own Mega-Evolved Pokémon.

The battle is interrupted by Blaise and {{adv|Amber}}. Although Blaise finds the new appearance of their leaders suspicious, Amber reveals that they summoned Groudon and Kyogre from their resting places with the power of {{p|Hoopa}}. Immediately after, Groudon and Kyogre appear, having followed the presence of the Orbs. Maxie and Archie use the Orbs to revert Groudon and Kyogre into their Primal forms, greatly increasing their power to the point where they easily defeat Red and Green. Groudon and Kyogre's rampage is interrupted by Ruby and {{adv|Emerald}}, who attempt to fight the super-ancient Pokémon but are unable to damage them. Maxie and Archie use Groudon and Kyogre to easily blast Ruby and Emerald out of the sky, easily defeating them. With their opponents on the ground, Maxie and Archie gloat over their victory and reveal that their return is all for the sake of saving the planet from the [[Grand Meteor Delta|meteoroid]] threatening to destroy it.

Later, at the [[Meteor Village]], Maxie trains alongside Archie in order to teach Groudon {{m|Precipice Blades}}. They were given a training space by the village [[Elder (Meteor Village)|Elder]], who agreed to help in their attempt to stop the meteoroid. After a day, Maxie and Archie finish their training and exit their training space. Just as they do so, Rayquaza sees Groudon and Kyogre through Hoopa's ring and attempts to attack by flying towards the ring. The experience scares Hoopa, causing it to accidentally send Rayquaza to another ring connecting the village to {{rt|120|Hoenn}}. Maxie and Archie chase after Rayquaza and arrive at Route 120 by forcing their way through Hoopa's ring. They decide to test the moves Groudon and Kyogre learned on Rayquaza, but are interrupted by large chunks of the meteoroid falling down on them. To destroy the chunks, Maxie, Archie, Ruby, and Sapphire combine the powers of Primal Groudon, Primal Kyogre, and Rayquaza into a single attack.

As the attack of the three super-ancient Pokémon struggles to destroy the meteoroid chunk, Maxie and Archie's bodies run out of energy and begin to break down. The combined attack eventually breaks the meteoroid chunk into pieces, which fall onto Groudon and Kyogre, knocking them out. After watching from afar, Blaise and Amber go down to see if their leaders are safe, only to find them both in the process of fading away. Maxie and Archie explain to the two that after their "deaths", their spirits ended up in [[Distortion World|another world]], where they at one point melded together and became one. After a [[PS460|hole]] to the real world was opened, an unknown voice called out to them, asking to protect the planet. After escaping from the world, they regained their bodies, albeit slightly different, gained Mega Evolution, and stole the orbs from Bill in order to save the planet from destruction. Just as they disappear completely, Maxie and Archie ask their subordinates to protect the planet.

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

At the Seafloor Cavern, he was used alongside Archie's Walrein to battle Ruby's [[Mumu]] and Sapphire's [[Chic]]. Although the Pokédex holders fought with powerful moves, Camerupt and Walrein emerged the victors, but left their Trainers open to be attacked. In the Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire chapter, he was used to battle Red and Green to stop them from taking the Red and Blue Orbs. Even though he Mega Evolved, he was eventually defeated. With Maxie's Mega Glasses, he can Mega Evolve into Mega Camerupt. After Maxie disappeared, he was taken by [[Blaise]] alongside Maxie's Mega Glasses. He is level 68, has a Quiet nature, and his [[Characteristic]] is "often lost in thought."

With the power of the Orbs and {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}}, Groudon moves to Mt. Chimney to return to its slumber. In the thirteenth chapter, Groudon is awakened from its slumber by {{p|Hoopa}}, who was manipulated by Blaise and Amber to summon the super-ancient Pokémon so they can achieve Primal Reversion.

'''Gardenia''' (Japanese: '''ナタネ''' ''Natane'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Eterna City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Eterna Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Forest}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the core series==
Gardenia uses {{type|Grass}} Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, Trainers receive the {{Badge|Forest}}, {{TM|86|Grass Knot}}, and the ability to use {{m|Cut}} outside of battle. Gardenia likes to explore the [[Eterna Forest]]. Unlike most Gym Leaders, challengers are required to beat all of her students to challenge her.

She appears in front of the [[Old Chateau]] to warn the {{player}} of the mysterious stories of hauntings surrounding it. She hints at herself being afraid of ghosts. Later, in {{v2|Platinum}}, she will appear occasionally for rematches at the [[Battleground]]. She will also sometimes visit the [[Villa]] and will always arrive when the Houseplant is purchased. One of her lines of dialog at the Villa confirms her dislike of {{type|Ghost}}s and she notes that she is worried about what would happen if there was a {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} Pokémon, a type combination that had never materialized prior to [[Generation VI]].

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Gardenia anime.png|thumb|200px|Gardenia in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Gardenia debuted in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener]]''. She was first seen unsuccessfully attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Gloom}} in the [[Eterna Forest]]. She then ran off to see [[Ash's Turtwig]], which she complimented. After that, Gardenia had a short {{pkmn|battle}} with {{Ash}}, revealing to him that the [[Eterna City]] [[Gym Leader]] specialized in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but she refrained from identifying herself as the Gym Leader. During the battle, she sent out {{p|Cherubi}} first, though she soon [[recall]]ed it. She then sent out her own {{p|Turtwig}}, which defeated both Ash's Turtwig and {{AP|Staravia}}.

Gardenia informed Ash, {{ashfr}}, and [[Cheryl]] that she knew about a {{p|Combee}} wall near some [[Pomeg Berry]] flowers, and she joined them during their search for the [[Amber Castle]]. The group was confronted by {{TRT}}, but instead of being horrified to learn they were thieves, Gardenia became infatuated with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}} instead. She eventually decided to battle the trio after seeing [[Jessie's Seviper]], and also rescued [[Cheryl's Mothim]]. Gardenia later left the group after receiving a message from a {{p|Nuzleaf}} regarding some urgent business.

Ash and his friends encountered Gardenia again at the [[Eterna Historical Museum]] in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''. Gardenia instantly recognized [[Nando]], who had been apprehended by [[Officer Jenny]] on suspicion of theft, from his recent Gym match victory against her. Ash and the others were surprised to learn that Gardenia was in fact the Eterna Gym Leader. Later, Gardenia and her Turtwig helped recover the stolen item in question, the [[Adamant Orb]], which had actually been stolen by Team Rocket.

[[File:James and Gardenia.png|thumb|left|220px|James giving Cacnea to Gardenia]]
Gardenia had a Gym battle with Ash in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]''. {{AP|Turtwig}} went up against {{p|Cherubi}} first, but it was recalled. Staravia then defeated Cherubi. After Staravia was defeated by Gardenia's Turtwig's {{m|Leech Seed}}, Ash defeated it with his own Turtwig. Next, {{p|Roserade}} defeated Ash's Turtwig with its {{m|Weather Ball}}, but later, it was defeated by {{AP|Aipom}}'s {{m|Swift}} and {{m|Focus Punch}} combination, thus earning Ash the {{Badge|Forest}}.

Gardenia visited [[Emeragrove Town]] to promote Pokémon battling in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]''. She took part in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[James]], where they went up against Ash and {{an|Dawn}}. Gardenia's Turtwig and James's Cacnea went up against Ash's Aipom and [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]. Following Gardenia's instructions, James witnessed Cacnea as it used {{m|Drain Punch}} for the first time. Turtwig was taken out first because Gardenia was paying closer attention to Cacnea, and soon, Ash and Dawn emerged victorious. After the battle, she offered to train James's Cacnea and make it stronger, and James reluctantly accepted.

She reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', where {{an|Barry}} revealed that he had earned the Forest Badge from her. Gardenia also made a cameo in the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

====Character====
Gardenia is an optimist and overly cheery. Her battle style is reliant on [[harsh sunlight]], which increases the power of [[move]]s like {{m|Solar Beam}} or {{m|Weather Ball}}, and her Pokémon's incredible speed.

Gardenia actively seeks out new challenges, so she often ventures to the [[Eterna Forest]] to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} new Pokémon that she could train. She is also prepared to [[trade]] for {{type|Grass}}s she feels have potential. Her obsession with Grass Pokémon is overwhelming and causes her to become flustered to such an extent that she did not take {{TRT}} seriously, due to her fascination with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}.

|desc=Gardenia's {{p|Cherubi}} was first seen in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!]]'' when Gardenia used it in an unofficial {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Ash's Turtwig]]. It displayed its high speed, however it emerged that Gardenia was just trying to get a read on Turtwig's abilities before she recalled it.

It later appeared during Ash and Gardenia's [[Gym]] battle during ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'', where it was able to outspeed Turtwig's attacks using its {{a|Chlorophyll|high speed}} and forced Ash to recall it. It then went up against {{AP|Staravia}} where Ash was able to blind it using the sunlight and then Staravia was able to knock it out.

Cherubi's known moves are {{m|Magical Leaf}} and {{m|Solar Beam}}, and its Ability is {{a|Chlorophyll}}.}}

|vajp=Miyako Itō
|vaen=Carter Cathcart{{!}}Billy Beach
|desc=Gardenia's {{p|Turtwig}} was first seen when it battled [[Ash's Turtwig]] and {{AP|Staravia}}. It had great speed and power, especially in regards to its Leech Seed attack. It was untouchable by any of Ash's Pokémon and won the match. It helped protect the [[Adamant Orb]] in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''.

During Ash's [[Gym]] battle, Gardenia used its impressive speed to once again defeat Ash's Staravia. However, it lost to Ash's own Turtwig after a fierce round. Turtwig reappeared in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields!]]'', where it was used in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[James's Cacnea]], but it was defeated by [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]'s {{m|Spark}}.

[[Nando's Roselia]] is known to have defeated Turtwig in an earlier battle.

Turtwig's known moves are {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Leaf Storm}}, {{m|Bite}}, and {{m|Tackle}}.}}

When it went up against Ash's {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, it was unable to keep up with the active Pokémon. It was eventually knocked out with a combination of {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{m|Swift}}.

It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP183|League Unleashed!]]''.

Roserade briefly appeared alongside Gardenia during the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

Roserade's known moves are {{m|Grass Knot}}, {{m|Weather Ball}}, {{m|Magical Leaf}}, and {{m|Flash}}.}}

=====Mentioned=====
In ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type is Always Greener!]]'', Gardenia mentioned that she has a {{p|Bellossom}}, a {{p|Vileplume}}, and a {{p|Victreebel}} when she wanted to [[trade]] one of her Pokémon for [[James's Carnivine]].

Later, in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]'', after battling alongside James and Cacnea in a Tag Battle, Gardenia knew that Cacnea had the ability to learn {{m|Drain Punch}}, so she offered to take on Cacnea to help it reach its full potential. After much soul searching James agreed and handed Cacnea over. Gardenia soon helped Cacnea master Drain Punch and she used it in a Gym battle against {{an|Barry}}, where it proved to be a strong opponent, unlike its many battles under James's command.}}

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Roark Gardenia Adventures.png|thumb|225px|[[Roark]] and his {{p|Cranidos}} with Gardenia and her {{p|Roserade}}]]
Gardenia made her debut when she took a walk in the Eterna Forest with her Cherubi and Roserade. She was enjoying the fresh air and the scent of the forest when she recognized the scent of Gastly in the forest. Following the scent, she met the trio ({{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}}). She called out to the group, only to be ignored by them. Becoming annoyed with their attitude, she had her {{p|Roserade}} use {{m|Grass Knot}} to get their attention. She was surprised to hear that the trio had been to [[Old Chateau]] and fought the Ghost Pokémon in the place. Gardenia was supposed to investigate the place as a Gym Leader, but apparently was scared of ghosts. Revealing that she is a [[Gym Leader]], she challenged the trio to a Gym battle.

Gardenia was the second [[Gym Leader]] that Platinum had battled against, and the first to have a [[Double Battle]] against. Gardenia sent out {{p|Roserade}} and {{p|Cherubi}} against [[Platinum's Empoleon|Platinum's Prinplup]] and [[Platinum's Rapidash|Ponyta]]. To avoid Ice- and Fire-type attacks, Gardenia and her Pokémon kept a great distance away from their challenger. But the distance didn't trouble them. Her {{p|Roserade}} used poisonous vines to attack, sending vines from the ground. This move easily knocked out Ponyta with a single shot. {{p|Cherubi}} on the other hand used {{m|Grass Knot}}. The attacks seemed to corner Prinplup, especially because after its evolution, Prinplup was prone to heavier damage from Grass Knot attacks. But the battle resulted as Platinum's victory, after she used the holes in the ground (made from Roserade's vines) to her advantage by having Prinplup blow a {{m|Blizzard}} into the holes. The holes led the ice move directly to Gardenia's two Pokémon, making them unable to battle. Recognizing her defeat, Gardenia gave Platinum the Forest Badge.

Gardenia would eventually join Roark, Fantina, Maylene, Crasher Wake and Candice in the battle against Team Galactic's commanders on the Spear Pillar. Gardenia and Crasher Wake faced [[Mars]] and won. After the Gym Leaders broke one of the Red Chains and were defeated by [[Cyrus]], Gardenia gave her Cherrim to Platinum.

Since the opponent's chosen Pokémon could use Fire and Ice attacks, Gardenia used the wide area of her plain grass Gym to not being hit by those type of attacks. As a distance-attack technique, Roserade used her poisonous vines under the arena, who defeated Ponyta and badly injured Prinplup. After being attacked by Cherubi's {{m|Grass Knot}} (which was more powerful upon {{p|Piplup}}'s evolution, since her weight had increased), she used her {{m|Blizzard}} in the tunnels the vines had dug, to deliver an underground at-distance attack.

Cherubi's only known move is {{m|Grass Knot}}, and her Ability is {{a|Chlorophyll}}.}}

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[Hareta]] first met Gardenia in [[Eterna Forest]], both mistaking the other to be part of [[Team Galactic]]. After resolving their misunderstanding and learning that Gardenia was [[Eterna City]]'s Gym Leader, Hareta asked Gardenia for a Gym battle but was promptly turned down, as Gardenia hadn't been impressed by Hareta's abilities so far. However, after being attacked by {{p|Piplup}} she changed her mind and agreed to battle.

It also battled with {{p|Misdreavus}} where Misdreavus used {{m|Spite}} to lower the PP of Magical Leaf. Misdreavus too got defeated by Roserade which left {{TP|Hareta|Piplup}} as the last Pokémon. After narrowly dodging Roserade's attacks, Piplup won the battle with an airborne {{m|Peck}} as Roserade could no longer use Magical Leaf to protect itself.

Roserade's only known move is {{m|Magical Leaf}}.}}

==Trivia==
* Gardenia is the only [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym Leader]] who does not have a Pokémon with their signature [[TM]] {{m|Grass Knot|move}} when battled in the [[Battleground]].
* Gardenia is the only second Gym Leader in the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} that uses a fully evolved stage three Pokémon.
** Although [[Misty]], [[Lenora]], and [[Nessa]] have fully evolved Pokémon, {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}, {{p|Watchog}}, and {{p|Drednaw}} respectively, all these Pokémon have only two stages.
* Gardenia is said to be afraid of the possibility of the existence of a {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} Pokémon. New Pokémon species with such type combination were introduced from [[Generation VI]] and onwards.
* Gardenia is the only Gym Leader who battles using a [[starter Pokémon]] that is available to the {{player}} in the same game.

'''Gardenia''' (Japanese: '''ナタネ''' ''Natane'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Eterna City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Eterna Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Forest}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the core series==
Gardenia uses {{type|Grass}} Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, Trainers receive the {{Badge|Forest}}, {{TM|86|Grass Knot}}, and the ability to use {{m|Cut}} outside of battle. Gardenia likes to explore the [[Eterna Forest]]. Unlike most Gym Leaders, challengers are required to beat all of her students to challenge her.

She appears in front of the [[Old Chateau]] to warn the {{player}} of the mysterious stories of hauntings surrounding it. She hints at herself being afraid of ghosts. Later, in {{v2|Platinum}}, she will appear occasionally for rematches at the [[Battleground]]. She will also sometimes visit the [[Villa]] and will always arrive when the Houseplant is purchased. One of her lines of dialog at the Villa confirms her dislike of {{type|Ghost}}s and she notes that she is worried about what would happen if there was a {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} Pokémon, a type combination that had never materialized prior to [[Generation VI]].

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Gardenia anime.png|thumb|200px|Gardenia in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Gardenia debuted in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener]]''. She was first seen unsuccessfully attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Gloom}} in the [[Eterna Forest]]. She then ran off to see [[Ash's Turtwig]], which she complimented. After that, Gardenia had a short {{pkmn|battle}} with {{Ash}}, revealing to him that the [[Eterna City]] [[Gym Leader]] specialized in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but she refrained from identifying herself as the Gym Leader. During the battle, she sent out {{p|Cherubi}} first, though she soon [[recall]]ed it. She then sent out her own {{p|Turtwig}}, which defeated both Ash's Turtwig and {{AP|Staravia}}.

Gardenia informed Ash, {{ashfr}}, and [[Cheryl]] that she knew about a {{p|Combee}} wall near some [[Pomeg Berry]] flowers, and she joined them during their search for the [[Amber Castle]]. The group was confronted by {{TRT}}, but instead of being horrified to learn they were thieves, Gardenia became infatuated with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}} instead. She eventually decided to battle the trio after seeing [[Jessie's Seviper]], and also rescued [[Cheryl's Mothim]]. Gardenia later left the group after receiving a message from a {{p|Nuzleaf}} regarding some urgent business.

Ash and his friends encountered Gardenia again at the [[Eterna Historical Museum]] in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''. Gardenia instantly recognized [[Nando]], who had been apprehended by [[Officer Jenny]] on suspicion of theft, from his recent Gym match victory against her. Ash and the others were surprised to learn that Gardenia was in fact the Eterna Gym Leader. Later, Gardenia and her Turtwig helped recover the stolen item in question, the [[Adamant Orb]], which had actually been stolen by Team Rocket.

[[File:James and Gardenia.png|thumb|left|220px|James giving Cacnea to Gardenia]]
Gardenia had a Gym battle with Ash in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]''. {{AP|Turtwig}} went up against {{p|Cherubi}} first, but it was recalled. Staravia then defeated Cherubi. After Staravia was defeated by Gardenia's Turtwig's {{m|Leech Seed}}, Ash defeated it with his own Turtwig. Next, {{p|Roserade}} defeated Ash's Turtwig with its {{m|Weather Ball}}, but later, it was defeated by {{AP|Aipom}}'s {{m|Swift}} and {{m|Focus Punch}} combination, thus earning Ash the {{Badge|Forest}}.

Gardenia visited [[Emeragrove Town]] to promote Pokémon battling in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]''. She took part in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[James]], where they went up against Ash and {{an|Dawn}}. Gardenia's Turtwig and James's Cacnea went up against Ash's Aipom and [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]. Following Gardenia's instructions, James witnessed Cacnea as it used {{m|Drain Punch}} for the first time. Turtwig was taken out first because Gardenia was paying closer attention to Cacnea, and soon, Ash and Dawn emerged victorious. After the battle, she offered to train James's Cacnea and make it stronger, and James reluctantly accepted.

She reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', where {{an|Barry}} revealed that he had earned the Forest Badge from her. Gardenia also made a cameo in the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

====Character====
Gardenia is an optimist and overly cheery. Her battle style is reliant on [[harsh sunlight]], which increases the power of [[move]]s like {{m|Solar Beam}} or {{m|Weather Ball}}, and her Pokémon's incredible speed.

Gardenia actively seeks out new challenges, so she often ventures to the [[Eterna Forest]] to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} new Pokémon that she could train. She is also prepared to [[trade]] for {{type|Grass}}s she feels have potential. Her obsession with Grass Pokémon is overwhelming and causes her to become flustered to such an extent that she did not take {{TRT}} seriously, due to her fascination with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}.

|desc=Gardenia's {{p|Cherubi}} was first seen in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!]]'' when Gardenia used it in an unofficial {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Ash's Turtwig]]. It displayed its high speed, however it emerged that Gardenia was just trying to get a read on Turtwig's abilities before she recalled it.

It later appeared during Ash and Gardenia's [[Gym]] battle during ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'', where it was able to outspeed Turtwig's attacks using its {{a|Chlorophyll|high speed}} and forced Ash to recall it. It then went up against {{AP|Staravia}} where Ash was able to blind it using the sunlight and then Staravia was able to knock it out.

Cherubi's known moves are {{m|Magical Leaf}} and {{m|Solar Beam}}, and its Ability is {{a|Chlorophyll}}.}}

|vajp=Miyako Itō
|vaen=Carter Cathcart{{!}}Billy Beach
|desc=Gardenia's {{p|Turtwig}} was first seen when it battled [[Ash's Turtwig]] and {{AP|Staravia}}. It had great speed and power, especially in regards to its Leech Seed attack. It was untouchable by any of Ash's Pokémon and won the match. It helped protect the [[Adamant Orb]] in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''.

During Ash's [[Gym]] battle, Gardenia used its impressive speed to once again defeat Ash's Staravia. However, it lost to Ash's own Turtwig after a fierce round. Turtwig reappeared in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields!]]'', where it was used in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[James's Cacnea]], but it was defeated by [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]'s {{m|Spark}}.

[[Nando's Roselia]] is known to have defeated Turtwig in an earlier battle.

Turtwig's known moves are {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Leaf Storm}}, {{m|Bite}}, and {{m|Tackle}}.}}

|desc={{p|Roserade}} was the final Pokémon used by Gardenia against {{Ash}}. It was able to easily knock out Turtwig using a {{m|Weather Ball}} powered by the bright sun. When it went up against Ash's {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, it was unable to keep up with the active Pokémon. It was eventually knocked out with a combination of {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{m|Swift}}.

It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP183|League Unleashed!]]''.

Roserade briefly appeared alongside Gardenia during the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

Roserade's known moves are {{m|Grass Knot}}, {{m|Weather Ball}}, {{m|Magical Leaf}}, and {{m|Flash}}.}}

=====Mentioned=====
In ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type is Always Greener!]]'', Gardenia mentioned that she has a {{p|Bellossom}}, a {{p|Vileplume}}, and a {{p|Victreebel}} when she wanted to [[trade]] one of her Pokémon for [[James's Carnivine]].

|desc=Gardenia first met {{p|Cacnea}} in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!]]'', when it was sent out by [[James]]. Gardenia was automatically attracted to it, and she asked it to scratch her back by using {{m|Pin Missile}}.

Later, in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]'', after battling alongside James and Cacnea in a Tag Battle, Gardenia knew that Cacnea had the ability to learn {{m|Drain Punch}}, so she offered to take on Cacnea to help it reach its full potential. After much soul searching James agreed and handed Cacnea over. Gardenia soon helped Cacnea master Drain Punch and she used it in a Gym battle against {{an|Barry}}, where it proved to be a strong opponent, unlike its many battles under James's command.}}

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Roark Gardenia Adventures.png|thumb|225px|[[Roark]] and his {{p|Cranidos}} with Gardenia and her {{p|Roserade}}]]
Gardenia made her debut when she took a walk in the Eterna Forest with her Cherubi and Roserade. She was enjoying the fresh air and the scent of the forest when she recognized the scent of Gastly in the forest. Following the scent, she met the trio ({{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}}). She called out to the group, only to be ignored by them. Becoming annoyed with their attitude, she had her {{p|Roserade}} use {{m|Grass Knot}} to get their attention. She was surprised to hear that the trio had been to [[Old Chateau]] and fought the Ghost Pokémon in the place. Gardenia was supposed to investigate the place as a Gym Leader, but apparently was scared of ghosts. Revealing that she is a [[Gym Leader]], she challenged the trio to a Gym battle.

Gardenia was the second [[Gym Leader]] that Platinum had battled against, and the first to have a [[Double Battle]] against. Gardenia sent out {{p|Roserade}} and {{p|Cherubi}} against [[Platinum's Empoleon|Platinum's Prinplup]] and [[Platinum's Rapidash|Ponyta]]. To avoid Ice- and Fire-type attacks, Gardenia and her Pokémon kept a great distance away from their challenger. But the distance didn't trouble them. Her {{p|Roserade}} used poisonous vines to attack, sending vines from the ground. This move easily knocked out Ponyta with a single shot. {{p|Cherubi}} on the other hand used {{m|Grass Knot}}. The attacks seemed to corner Prinplup, especially because after its evolution, Prinplup was prone to heavier damage from Grass Knot attacks. But the battle resulted as Platinum's victory, after she used the holes in the ground (made from Roserade's vines) to her advantage by having Prinplup blow a {{m|Blizzard}} into the holes. The holes led the ice move directly to Gardenia's two Pokémon, making them unable to battle. Recognizing her defeat, Gardenia gave Platinum the Forest Badge.

Gardenia would eventually join Roark, Fantina, Maylene, Crasher Wake and Candice in the battle against Team Galactic's commanders on the Spear Pillar. Gardenia and Crasher Wake faced [[Mars]] and won. After the Gym Leaders broke one of the Red Chains and were defeated by [[Cyrus]], Gardenia gave her Cherrim to Platinum.

As a distance-attack technique, Roserade used her poisonous vines under the arena, who defeated Ponyta and badly injured Prinplup. After being attacked by Cherubi's {{m|Grass Knot}} (which was more powerful upon {{p|Piplup}}'s evolution, since her weight had increased), she used her {{m|Blizzard}} in the tunnels the vines had dug, to deliver an underground at-distance attack.

Cherubi's only known move is {{m|Grass Knot}}, and her Ability is {{a|Chlorophyll}}.}}

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[Hareta]] first met Gardenia in [[Eterna Forest]], both mistaking the other to be part of [[Team Galactic]]. After resolving their misunderstanding and learning that Gardenia was [[Eterna City]]'s Gym Leader, Hareta asked Gardenia for a Gym battle but was promptly turned down, as Gardenia hadn't been impressed by Hareta's abilities so far. However, after being attacked by {{p|Piplup}} she changed her mind and agreed to battle.

It also battled with {{p|Misdreavus}} where Misdreavus used {{m|Spite}} to lower the PP of Magical Leaf. Misdreavus too got defeated by Roserade which left {{TP|Hareta|Piplup}} as the last Pokémon. After narrowly dodging Roserade's attacks, Piplup won the battle with an airborne {{m|Peck}} as Roserade could no longer use Magical Leaf to protect itself.

Roserade's only known move is {{m|Magical Leaf}}.}}

* Gardenia is the only [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym Leader]] who does not have a Pokémon with their signature [[TM]] {{m|Grass Knot|move}} when battled in the [[Battleground]].
* Gardenia is the only second Gym Leader in the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} that uses a fully evolved stage three Pokémon.
** Although [[Misty]], [[Lenora]], and [[Nessa]] have fully evolved Pokémon, {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}, {{p|Watchog}}, and {{p|Drednaw}} respectively, all these Pokémon have only two stages.
* Gardenia is said to be afraid of the possibility of the existence of a {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} Pokémon. New Pokémon species with such type combination were introduced from [[Generation VI]] and onwards.
* Gardenia is the only Gym Leader who battles using a [[starter Pokémon]] that is available to the {{player}} in the same game.
