I've added the section "Effects of contact" which needs expanding. I've begun with abilities that are affected by contact moves. -[[User:TIMMY|TIMMY]] 11:14, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

== list of contact moves ==

A list of moves which make contact would be a good addition to this. [[User:Eric the espeon|Eric the espeon]] 14:05, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

== Damage type of Contact moves ==

The article states that
<blockquote>ever since the distinction between physical and special were no longer based on types, '''most''' moves that make contact are physical.</blockquote>
but it also states
<blockquote>Post-Gen IV, Damage dealing for moves that make contact are '''always''' calculated using the attacking Pokémon's Attack and the defending Pokémon's Defense.</blockquote>

This implies that special moves that make contact (according to the Japanese wiki page these are [[Trump Card (move)|Trump Card]], [[Grass Knot (move)|Grass Knot]], [[Wring Out (move)|Wring Out]] and [[Petal Dance (move)|Petal Dance]]) deliver physical damage despite having a special type. Please either clarify or correct this as appropriate ._. [[User:Hyperworm|Hyperworm]] 13:11, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

'''Me First''' (Japanese: '''さきどり''' ''Take in Advance'') is a {{type2|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

==Effect==
Me First copies any damage-dealing move that the target is about to use and increases the power by 50%, if the foe has not made the first move.

Despite some confusion from the in-game description, Me First will only work if the user is faster than the foe or moves first due to an effect from a [[Custap Berry]] or a [[In-battle effect item#Quick Claw| Quick Claw]]. If the foe is faster than the user, Me First will fail to copy the attack and if the foe uses a non-damaging move, Me First will also fail.

If the foe goes second in the recharge turn of a move like [[Frenzy Plant]], Me First will work and copy that move.

Hyperworm:

I ('''Hyperworm''') registered with Bulbapedia a long time ago but haven't contributed much. ._.

Because this page ranks so highly on a Google search for my username, I should probably put something here that's at least not inaccurate. >_>

I was born in 1986, I'm British and male, and I'm called Hyperworm everywhere. It looks like there are a couple of other users called Hyperworm, but they don't appear to register or post in very many places (lucky for me ^^), so if you see a Hyperworm, it's probably me I guess?

One notable exception: on PSN, I'm '''Hyperwyrm''' with a y. Or two. Someone got there before me. >_>

You can contact me by gmail (to restate, that's @gmail, not @googlemail).

== Pokémon-related stuff because this is Bulbapedia ==

I've been a fan of Pokémon games since the beginning, and I'm more than a little frustrated at Nintendo's continual failed attempts to make a proper 3D console Pokémon game in the style of the portable games (with proper wild Pokémon encounters etc) despite the fact that it'd sell millions. >_> In fact Nintendo as a whole is failing recently. Sigh.

I like the TCG as well but don't really play that much (I don't know that many people in real life who would play it with me!), and Apprentice falls well short in simulating the feel of actually playing a tabletop TCG in real life. I'm closely watching the progress of other TCG simulators currently in development. I'd also love it if Nintendo released another handheld/console Pokémon card game but sadly it seems unlikely (see above).

Used to watch the anime but have moved on since.

== Other stuff ==

Currently (2009) I have a Wii, DS, and PS3 (as well as a collection of older consoles).

I generally enjoy games that place some focus on strategy, or beating hiscores, or puzzles, or rhythm, or platforming. JRPGs are good. Adventure(? Zelda/Okami-style) games are good. FPSs go well ''sometimes''. 
Genres I'm not too keen on include ''real-time'' strategy (every time I play a game like that I end up hating it), 2D ''console-based'' fighters (much prefer 3D where there's room for it), ''WW2'' FPSs or the like (I'll take awesome alien or futuristic weapons instead thanks) and to a limited extent sandbox games - I love the concept but they often feel shallow. I'm sure I'll get suckered into a few more though. LittleBigPlanet was some kind of a success to me.

I'm fairly competent with Japanese, and I do some translating for anime fansub groups. I collect (raw) manga too.

I also have some personal semi-secret programming projects I'm working on in my spare time, which will hopefully become popular in the future >_>

== Some more specific examples of things that are awesome ==

osu!, MS Paint Adventures (Homestuck), the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG, Haruhi novels, Touhou, qwantz, the Bokurano manga, Futurama, Worms (when it's done right), Bleach, Four Swords, Knights in the Nightmare, Treasure, 24, Aqua Timez, American Dad, Disgaea, Yotsubato!, anything above 7 on my anidb mylist, my friends especially Gtpod and Quin :>

Hyperworm: oops

For the Pokemon League champion, shouldn't his name be listed as Blue rather than Gary? Blue is his name in Gold/Silver, as well. Also, should the name link to "Gary" or to something like "Blue (game)"?
* [[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 22:38, 8 Jan 2005 (GMT)

Hmm, but in FireRed and LeafGreen his name is Green, isn't it?

== Kanto ==

I don't recall seeing a macron over the "o" in the US Pokémon games and manuals etc., it was just "Kanto", wasn't it?
What the name of Kanto is in Japan is irrelevant to the article title and its first word, we're using US names... ._.

Of course, correct me if I'm wrong (this ''is'' a wiki XD), but I'm fairly sure...
*[[User:Hyperworm|Hyperworm]] 09:28, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

: Of course you don't see a macron. Do you see macrons in '''Tōkyō''', '''Kyōto''', '''Tōkaidō''' or '''Hokkaidō'''? Of course not, English just drops them. It's fairly common on Wikipedia to put the macrons back where the English name would otherwise be identical to Hepburn romanisation, and I agree (and if you can't read the katakana, I assure you, the long vowel is there) -- it reduces clutter. - [[User:Zhen Lin|刘 (劉) 振霖]] 10:31, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
:: I can read the katakana, and I'm all for writing Japanese words so they strictly conform to Hepburn romanisation, which is why I added "Kantō" after カントー. However, I'm just as much for writing English words so they strictly conform to how the official people decided they should be written in English. As you said yourself, English drops macrons, and so IMHO if we're using the English names, we should copy how they're officially written in the US character-for-character and leave the macrons out. If we're actually talking about the '''Japanese version''' of the English Kanto (no macron), which is カントー, then for the benefit of non-Japanese-speakers I would actually romanize the name (which involves macrons) rather than typing only the true Japanese one. ._.
:: I'm new to wikis, however, and if it's standard practice to add macrons to English words that are derived from Japanese words, then fair enough... I wasn't aware, and I don't think it's a good idea myself. I'll leave it up to you whether to edit it or not.
:: It's a trifling point anyway. I should probably actually submit some decent content to Bulbapedia rather than just fixing typos, sorry for taking up your time with this. ._.

:: It's a trifling point anyway. I should probably actually submit some decent content to Bulbapedia rather than just fixing typos, sorry for taking up your time with this. ._.

Hyperworm: Kanto. See discussion page.

'''Kanto''' (Japanese: '''カントー''' ''Kantō''), named after the real [[wp:Kanto|Kanto region]] in Japan, is the first region explored by the [[Generation I]] games [[Pokémon Green]], [[Pokémon Red]], [[Pokémon Blue]] and [[Pokémon Yellow]] and in the [[Generation III]] remakes of the first Pokémon games: [[Pokémon FireRed]] and [[Pokémon LeafGreen]]. Kanto is also accessible in the [[Generation II]] games [[Pokémon Gold]], [[Pokémon Silver]] and [[Pokémon Crystal]]. In this region [[Professor Oak]] gives the main character a choice between Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle as their choice for a [[starter Pokémon]]. You start in [[Pallet Town]] and work your way through the [[Indigo Plateau]] to become the [[Pokémon League]] [[Champion]].

Hyperworm: Pokémon macros and "it's/its" error

=Generation I=
In Generation I, [[Pokémon Yellow]] introduced a prototype version of the Happiness value that would later be used in future generations. {{p|Pikachu}} will follow your main character throughout the game. You can turn and look at Pikachu at any time to gauge it's loyalty to you. Its expression will range from indifference to estatic depending on how happy it is. At it's peak, Pikachu will jump up and down.

Pikachu's Happiness level will rise when it gains a level.

It will drop when it is put into [[Bill's PC]], or faints. Trading it will reset it's Happiness rating.

It is relatively easy to make Pikachu happy compared to Pokémon in future generations.

Happiness is not recorded for any other Pokémon in Generation I, aside from Pokémon Yellow's starter Pikachu.

As far as gameplay goes, Pikachu's Happiness only truly affects whether or not the player can aquire a {{p|Bulbasaur}} in [[Cerulean City]].

=Generation II=
Pending.
=Generation III=
Happiness in Generation III is a value between 0 and 255. Wild Pokémon have their own base happiness, which is typically 70 (about 27%) for non-legendary first stage Pokémon, but not always. If a Pokémon hatches from an egg, its initial happiness ignores the base happiness value and is set to 120 (about 47%). When a Pokémon is still in its egg, its happiness value is ignored (as there are no aspects in the game that apply happiness to eggs) and the happiness value is used as a decrementing step value that triggers the egg hatch when it reaches zero.

Happiness evolutions occur when happiness reaches 220 (about 86%).

Happiness is modified in the following ways:
* Gaining a level (+2)
* Using Soothe Bell (+1 for each other event)
* Walking 256 steps (+1)
* Stat modifiers (+2)
* Fire/Leaf: Grooming (+3)
* Emerald only: Certain berries (+5)

Does not really have much relevance to Pokémon (would we create a "TV" article because the anime appeared on it?)... articles that link here would probably be better off linking to the Wikipedia version, I think. - Hyperworm

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Actually, it does have relevance if people want to look up the systems pokemon has appeared in in the games. We also have a Game Cube page too that needs to be worked on. We can make our own Game Cube and GBA articles. We also have a DS one. It makes sense to have the systems the games appeared on.

Not only that, but Pokemon in general is pretty highly tied to the Gameboy systems. It pretty much single-handedly kept sales of the Gameboy going consistantly for years.

Perfectly happy with that justification. - Hyperworm

Brock

Hyperworm: Pokémon Karaokémon (note the é)

[[Image:Brock-anime1.jpg|thumb|A picture of Brock from the Anime]]
'''Brock''' (Japanese: '''タケシ''' ''Takeshi'') in the [[Pokémon anime|anime]] is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] who is currently travelling with [[Ash]], [[May]], and [[Max]] through the [[Hoenn]] region. His Japanese seiyu is うえだ　ゆうじ ''Yūji Ueda'', and his English voice actor is ''Eric Stuart''. His Japanese name can be taken to mean "strength" (武), and his English name literally means "badger" but was selected because it sounds like the word "rock". He originally trained [[Rock (type)|Rock-type]] [[Pokémon]], but has, since the beginning of the Anime, diversified. He makes scrumptious Pokémon food, and he hits on every pretty girl he meets, particularly Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy - both of whom he sings about in the ''Pokémon Karaokémon'' song "[[Two Perfect Girls]]". He also sings the ending theme タケシのパラダイス ''Takeshi No Paradaisu'' ("Brock's Paradise").

He is a domestic, taking care of the tasks of not only grooming his Pokémon, but also those of the kids he travels with. He handles the cooking and the cleaning -- something he is quite used to, being the oldest of ten children.

Brock was also the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]. Trainers who defeat him receive the [[Boulder Badge]].

His family life deserves another mention, owing to it being most peculiar. The father, [[Flint]], left home to become a great trainer. When he never returned, the mother, [[Mizuho]] up and left them, leaving Brock to take care of his siblings by himself (the English version of ''Showdown in Pewter City'' has Flint claming she died, although he was clearly lying). It turned out Flint considered himself a failure and was selling rocks at the edge of town. When Brock left to journey with Ash, he left Flint in charge of the Pewter Gym.

Upon his return after journeying through [[Johto]], Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the gym, turning the [[Rock (type)|Rock-type]] haven into a [[Water (type)|Water-type]] den. Brock battled her for the honor of Rock-types and won, promising his brother [[Jiro]] that he would become Gym Leader someday.

'''Geodude''' (Japanese: イシツブテ ''Ishitsubute'', German: Kleinstein, French: Racaillou, Korean: 꼬마돌 ''Kkomador'') is a [[Rock (type)|Rock]]/[[Ground (type)|Ground]]-type Pokémon, listed in the National [[Pokédex]] as #074. It was first seen in [[Pokémon Red]], [[Pokémon Green]] and [[Pokémon Blue]] for the original [[Game Boy]], and has been in every version since: Pokémon Red, Pokémon Green, Pokémon Blue, [[Pokémon Yellow]] ,[[Pokémon Gold]], [[Pokémon Silver]], [[Pokémon Crystal]], [[Pokémon Ruby]], [[Pokémon Sapphire]], [[Pokémon FireRed]], [[Pokémon LeafGreen]], and [[Pokémon Emerald]].

Geodude's signature attacks are Earthquake and Explosion, although in more recent versions it has gained the Rollout and Magnitude attacks; as well as Double-edge.

Geodude comes with one of two [[Abilities]]: Sturdy, which prevents One hit knock out attacks from having any effect; or Rock Head, which eliminates the recoil from certain attacks--for instance, Double-edge.

Geodude evolves via level, starting at level 25, into [[Graveler (Pokémon)|Graveler]], and then into [[Golem (Pokémon)|Golem]] at any time via link trade.

Pokémon Colosseum

Hyperworm: /* Purifying Techiques */ Made bar section easier to read; fixed some grammar

== Introduction==

Pokémon Colosseum was released on November 21, 2003 in Japan, March 22, 2004 in North America and May 14, 2004 in Europe on the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. The game followed the basic stadium style battling found in the [[Pokémon Stadium]] games but an extra was included in the form of an RPG which allowed trainers to catch [[Generation II]] and [[Generation III]] Pokémon in the desolate region of [[Orre]].

In the game, your character was part of an organization called [[Team Snagem]] and they created a machine which allowed someone to snag another's Pokémon as if it were wild. Another team, [[Team Cipher]] was responisible for darkening several Pokémons' hearts and gave them to trainers. With the help of a young girl named [[Rui]], your character would be able to find the Pokémon whose hearts were sealed and surrounded by a purple aura and use the [[Snag machine]] for good purpose and open the Pokémon's heart.

=== About Ho-Oh ===

Ho-Oh is catchable in Pokémon Colosseum when trainers have purified all the [[Shadow Pokémon]]. Players would then have to use a team of Pokémon from the RPG in the main game's 100 trainer knockout challenge.

== Purifying Techiques ==

Pokémon in the game can be purified in a variety of ways.

* Walking around with shadow Pokémon in your party.
* Rubbing scents on the Pokémon (these can be bought at Agate Village).
* Battling with them and calling out when the Pokémon reaches its hyper state.

Once the bar which indicates how open or how closed the heart is reaches the point where it says "The Pokémon's heart is open! Unlock the final lock!", trainers would go to the Agate Village shrine and use its power to restore the Pokémon's heart and remove the move known as [[Shadow Rush]].

After trainers have beaten the game, Pokémon can be traded to all [[Generation III]] games provided that their hearts are open.

== Extra Pokémon ==

[[Jirachi]] was available on the Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disk in North America. [[Celebi]] was also on a Bonus Disk. However, that Pokémon was only available to the people in Japan.

== Colosseums ==

The other half of the game consists of several colosseum venues that trainers could send Pokémon from the RPG to battle or from the [[Gameboy Advance]] games.

* [[Phenac Colosseum]]
* [[Pyrite Colosseum]]
* [[Under Colosseum]]
* [[Oore Colosseum]](Level 50 and Level 100)
* [[Tower Colosseum]]

== Rewards==

While competing in the Mount Battle 100 trainer challenge in either the RPG or the Colosseum section of the game, trainers can recieve [[Pokécoupons]] which can be used to buy rare [[TM]]s, [[Items]] and [[Berries]]. Here is the list of what trainers can recieve after collecting a set amount of Pokécoupons.

* TM 29 Psychic (3,500 Pokécoupons)
* TM 13 Ice Beam (4,000 Pokécoupons)
* TM 24 Thunderbolt (4,000 Pokécoupons)
* TM 35 Flamethrower (4,000 Pokécoupons)

=== About Ho-Oh ===

Ho-Oh is catchable in Pokémon Colosseum when trainers have purified all the [[Shadow Pokémon]]. Players would then have to use a team of Pokémon from the RPG in the main game's 100 trainer knockout challenge.

== Purifying Techiques ==

Pokémon in the game can be purified in a variety of ways.

* Walking around with shadow Pokémon in your party.
* Rubbing scents on the Pokémon.(Can be bought at Agate Village)
* Battling with them and calling out when the Pokémon reaches its hyper state.

Once the bar indicating how open or close the heart is at the point where it says:"The Pokémon's heart is open! Unlock the final lock!", trainers would go to the Agate Village shrine and use its power to restore the Pokémon's heart and removes the move known as [[Shadow Rush]].

After trainers have beaten the game, Pokémon can be traded to all [[Generation III]] games provided that its heart is open.

== Extra Pokémon ==

[[Jirachi]] was available on the Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disk in North America. [[Celebi]] was also on a Bonus Disk. However, that Pokémon was only available to the people in Japan.

== Colosseums ==

The other half of the game consists of several colosseum venues that trainers could send Pokémon from the RPG to battle or from the [[Gameboy Advance]] games.

* [[Phenac Colosseum]]
* [[Pyrite Colosseum]]
* [[Under Colosseum]]
* [[Oore Colosseum]](Level 50 and Level 100)
* [[Tower Colosseum]]

Experience

Hyperworm: Clarified what was meant by experience having six "types". Touched things up.

A Pokémon's experience, or EXP. Points (Experience Points) is an indication of how much it has battled. Pokémon gain EXP. Points by participating in winning battles without fainting. When a Pokémon accumulates sufficient EXP. Points, it [[level|levels up]]. At certain levels, Pokémon can learn certain [[move|moves]] or [[evolution|evolve]], depending on its [[Pokémon specie|specie]].

The cumulative total amount of experience required to reach a specific level is determined by set formulae. Each specie of Pokémon follows a set evolution formula. In the [[Advanced Generation]] series of games, there are 6 formulae, and thus 6 different evolution-rate "types".

Where e is the cumulative total amount of experience required to reach level n, the formulae are:

* e = n3; max value = 1000000
* ?; max value = 600000
* ?; max value = 1640000
* e = (6n3/5) - 15n2 + 100n - 140; max value = 1059860
* e = (4n3/5); max value = 800000
* e = (5n3/4); max value = 1250000

(Max value is the amount of experience required to reach level 100.)
