'''Rogue Mega Evolution''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|暴走メガシンカ|Bōsō Mega-shinka}}''' ''Rampaging Mega Evolution'') is a phenomenon in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} whereby [[wild Pokémon]] undergo [[Mega Evolution]] on their own after exposure to high concentrations of [[Mega Power]], which drives them into a berserk, painful state. There are 16 Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon that can be found as part of the game's {{DL|Mission (Legends: Z-A)|main missions}}, and another 10 encounters are added in [[hyperspace]] as part of the [[Mega Dimension]] DLC. After a Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon is defeated, the {{player}} receives its corresponding [[Mega Stone]].

After the main story, {{p|Zygarde}} is fought in a similar way, but is not a Rogue Mega Evolution. Similarly, Mega Dimension would also reintroduce [[Primal Reversion]], in which {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} will go rogue under this [[form|transformation]].

==History==
===Background===
Rogue Mega Evolution occurs when [[wild Pokémon]] are exposed to high concentrations of [[Mega Power]], a form of energy released by [[Ange]] from within [[Prism Tower]]. This causes them to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]], despite not meeting the requirements for a proper Mega Evolution, such as a bond with a {{pkmn|Trainer}} or a [[Key Stone]]. [[Mable]] also entertains the idea that {{p|Xerneas}}'s unlimited life energy could fuel Rogue Mega Evolutions in place of Mega Power.<ref>[[Mable]]: ''"The excessive [[Mega Power]] from the tower caused Rogue Mega Evolution, and if {{p|Xerneas}} shows up, something similar could happen again. I mean, it has command of basically an unlimited pool of life energy!"'' ({{g|Legends: Z-A}})</ref>

Following [[Lysandre]]'s activation of the [[ultimate weapon]] during the events of {{g|X and Y}}, Ange begun releasing the Mega Power it was keeping inside throughout [[Lumiose City]], which drew [[wild Pokémon]] into the city in large numbers. [[Quasartico Inc.]] shut down Prism Tower to investigate the energy under the guise of renovation work.

Six months prior to the events of {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, the first known instance of Rogue Mega Evolution occurred with a {{p|Pidgeot}}. [[AZ]] and {{form|Floette|Eternal Flower}} {{p|Floette}} attempted to battle the Pokémon, but the man was unable to keep up due to his advanced age. Fortunately, [[Urbain]]/[[Taunie]] stepped in for AZ and battled alongside Floette. Their success impressed Quasartico Inc.'s [[Vinnie]], who was also responding to the issue, and he began sharing some intelligence on Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon with the young Trainer. These events inspired Urbain/Taunie to create [[Team MZ]] in order to help quell further Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon, later recruiting [[Lida]], [[Naveen]], and the {{player}} to the team.

===Pokémon Legends: Z-A===
Rogue Mega Evolution is introduced to the player during [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Main Mission 09: "Chase That Mysterious Pokémon!"]], after {{p|Zygarde}} tracks down the player and leads it to the site of a soon-to-be Rogue Mega {{p|Absol}}. For this encounter, AZ gifts the player a [[Mega Ring]] and temporarily loans them his {{p|Lucario}}. After the Rogue Mega Absol is pacified, it chooses to join the player. From this point onward, Team MZ is routinely notified by Quasartico Inc. about instances of Rogue Mega Evolution being detected around Lumiose City, which come in three at a time, leading to a total of 16 Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon being battled.

During the game's climax, after {{DL|Ange|Hyperrogue Ange Floette}} takes control, numerous wild Pokémon throughout the city undergo Rogue Mega Evolution at the same time. The player and their various allies must defeat these Pokémon to reach {{p|Zygarde}}. The phenomenon of Rogue Mega Evolution comes to an end in Lumiose City after Zygarde destroys Ange.

====[[Mega Dimension]]====
[[File:Rayquaza Mega Evolving ZA.png|thumb|250px|{{p|Rayquaza}} undergoing Rogue Mega Evolution at [[Hyperspace Sky Pillar]]]]
As the [[Rust Syndicate]] and Quasartico Inc., helped by [[Team MZ]], investigated [[Hyperspace Lumiose]], it was discovered that the dimension contained Pokémon at risk of Rogue Mega Evolution. While the reason why the phenomenon is occuring in Hyperspace Lumiose is not fully known, Urbain/Taunie suspects that it may be a ripple effect from the events with Ange. Throughout the main story of the DLC, six Rogue Mega-Evolved are battled and caught, including Rogue Mega {{p|Darkrai}}, the Pokémon responsible for Hyperspace Lumiose existing in the first place.

In the post-game, specifically during [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Hyperspace Mission 13: "A Ruby-Red Legend"]] and [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Hyperspace Mission 14: "A Sapphire-Blue Legend"]], Team MZ faces off against Rogue Primal {{p|Groudon}} and Rogue Primal {{p|Kyogre}}, respectively. In turn, this allows for them to create a distortion that leads to a Rogue Mega {{p|Rayquaza}}, concluding [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Hyperspace Mission 12: "The Greatest Gift"]]. Rogue Mega {{p|Zeraora}} can also be found during [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Side Mission EX3: "Raging Lightning"]]. The DLC also introduces another seven instances of Rogue Mega Evolution as side missions.

Most of the Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon can be refought in the "Rogue Mega Arena" portals, where the player can earn more hyperspace points. The only exceptions to not appear in that specific portal are {{p|Darkrai}}, the [[super-ancient Pokémon]], and {{p|Zeraora}}.

==Mechanics==
Before the battle starts, the player's Pokémon are fully healed and their Mega Power is set to zero. When the battle begins, the player and their ally are transported to a circular battlefield. The Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon can use moves against the player and other Pokémon, but not their ally. Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon have several times their normal amount of HP, take greatly reduced damage from non-[[Plus Move|Plus Moves]], and a few also have modest increases to some of their non-HP stats, as well. Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon usually prioritize attacking the player instead of their Pokémon. Even if the player or their teammate's Pokémon have types that would ordinarily make them [[Type effectiveness|immune]] to a move that a Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon uses, they will still take (albeit heavily-reduced) damage from it. Some of those attacks will drop orbs of Mega Power in various sizes, which the player must collect in order to Mega Evolve their Pokémon or use [[Plus Moves]]. Eventually, the Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon can prepare a more devastating special attack, which can be stopped with Plus Moves. If such an attack is stopped, the Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon will be stunned for a while, being unable to attack. Some Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon can summon other low-level Pokémon from their Evolution line as reinforcements.

In [[Mega Dimension]], all Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon can be fought at higher levels in [[Hyperspace Lumiose]]. Pokémon fought in Hyperspace will be affected by donut energy, making the battles timed based on the [[donut]] consumed. Picking up black energy orbs that the Rogue Mega Pokémon drop when stunned will temporarily freeze the timer. The time limits are relieved on rematches in [[Quasartico Inc.]]

Exclusive to these battles, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Rayquaza}} will have an effect on their field that simulates the [[Ability]] of their Primal Reversion/Mega Evolution during their second phases making certain [[type]]s of moves have less or no effect.

During story progress, if the player blacks out, they can choose to restart the battle, continue it with the previously dealt damage, or forfeit. If the player chooses to continue or restart the battle, their party will be fully healed, and the donut (if one is used) will have its timer refilled. {{p|Rayquaza}}, being the only exception, will have to be fought from the start of the first phase if the player blacks out. Zeraora also has to be fought from the start if the player loses to it, but it is not part of the story.

===Rogue Mega Evolution Simulator 3000===
In the post-game, specifically during [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Main Mission 41: "The One That Takes"]], Vinnie will challenge the player to a rematch against virtual simulations of the Rogue Mega-Evolved {{p|Victreebel}}, {{p|Hawlucha}}, and {{p|Tyranitar}} in preparation to face {{p|Yveltal}}, something only possible through Quasartico Inc.'s Rogue Mega Evolution Simulator 3000. After beating all three simulations, the player can engage in [[rematch]]es with any of the 16 Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon at any time to earn rewards and see how quickly they can complete them.

Unlike the original battles, the player must face the Pokémon on their own, without any assistance. After pacifying the Pokémon, Vinnie will record the time it took to beat them, and will give the player ×3 [[Exp. Candy M]] as a reward. The [[rematch]]s at [[Quasartico Inc.]] are unlocked after beating post-game of Pokémon Legends: Z-A and all story Rogue Megas of [[Mega Dimension]] [[DLC]]. Defeating the new Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon in the [[Mega Dimension]] [[DLC]] unlocks additional rematches at [[Quasartico Inc. (building)|Quasartico Inc. headquarters]]. While Vinnie is absent at the headquarters, a female [[Team Flare Nouveau]] member takes his place as the attendant for Rogue Mega Evolution Simulator 3000.

===Rogue Mega Rush===
'''Rogue Mega Rush''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|暴走|ぼうそう}}メガラッシュ''' ''Rampaging Mega Rush'') is a boss rush available in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s [[Mega Dimension]]. It is unlocked by defeating every Rogue Mega Evolution, including the event-exclusive Mega {{p|Zeraora}}. It is one of the three [[rematch]] options in Pokémon Legends: Z-A and the Mega Dimension DLC.

The player must fight all 27 Rogue Mega Evolutions (except Hyperrogue Ange Floette) in a set order. They are fought in the same order as in the story, with the exception of {{p|Zeraora}}, being fought in between {{p|Heatran}} and {{p|Darkrai}}, and {{p|Zygarde}}, being fought as the very last battle; in the case of the five batches of three Rogue Mega Evolutions each during the main story, they are fought in the order displayed in the [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|missions]] list, with the exception of the third batch, which are fought in reverse order. They are all level 100, and the player can only heal their party 3 times between battles. Healing moves such as {{m|Synthesis}}, {{m|Wish}} and {{m|Giga Drain}} do not count towards this. The player is not allowed to switch their party members or use items. The only reward is a title called "Mega Rush Master" for online play. {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, and Zygarde are the only Pokémon in Rogue Mega Rush to not use [[Mega Evolution]].

==List of Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon==
There are 16 Rogue Mega Evolution Pokémon encounters in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]'s base game and 10 Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon encounters (including Primal Reversions) in the [[Mega Dimension]] [[DLC]]:

Notably, the battles against {{p|Darkrai}} and the [[super-ancient Pokémon]] have two phases: in the first, they are in their base forms, while in the second, they undergo Rogue Mega Evolution or Rogue [[Primal Reversion]]. Zygarde is the only non-Rogue Mega-Evolved or Rogue Primal Pokémon in this list. It also does not drop any Mega Power when stunned, unlike all the other Pokémon.

====Other instances====
During [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)|Main Mission 37: "Operation Protect Lumiose"]], after {{DL|Ange|Hyperrogue Ange Floette}} takes control, it will cause numerous [[wild Pokémon]] to undergo Rogue Mega Evolution across [[Lumiose City]]. As the player traverses the ruined streets to reach {{p|Zygarde}}, they will be forced to battle some of these Pokémon, with all of their [[level]]s being 62. Unlike the previous encounters, these all take place as regular wild Pokémon battles (though the Pokémon cannot be caught). The player will be assisted by characters from the various organizations they have encountered throughout the game. Each ally will Mega Evolve their ace Pokémon at the start of the battle.

In between each battle, additional Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon will appear. However, the player is unable to battle them, as their allies will step forward to face them so the player can continue on to their goal:
* Following the battle alongside [[Ivor]] and [[Gwynn]], the latter will depart to battle two Mega {{p|Sharpedo}} and a Mega {{p|Scizor}}.
* Following the battle alongside [[Canari]], she, along with [[Tarragon]] and the workers from [[Racine Construction]], will face two Mega {{p|Beedrill}} and a Mega {{p|Lopunny}}.
* Following the battle alongside [[Lebanne]], [[Jacinthe]] will appear and establish a Jacinthe Zone in which the two will face three Mega {{p|Houndoom}} and two Mega {{p|Abomasnow}}.
* Following the battle alongside [[Grisham]] and [[Griselle]], the pair will face six Mega {{p|Pinsir}}.

During Mega Dimension, other Pokémon go under the effects of Rogue Mega Evolution, similar to battles leading up to [[Ange]]. These too are fought in [[Hyperspace Lumiose]], requiring [[donut]]s to be made of a particular level. Defeating these Rogue Mega Evolutions will receive a Mega Stone of the corresponding Pokémon. {{p|Crabominable}} is the only one of this group to be considered a side mission.

==Trivia==
* Out of the 87 Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]], 49 undergo Rogue Mega Evolution in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} and [[Mega Dimension]] [[Downloadable content|DLC]].
* {{p|Absol}} is the only Pokémon to be fought as a Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon twice, as Mega Absol in Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Mega Absol Z in the Mega Dimension DLC.
** In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Mega Absol is the only Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon that can be {{pkmn2|caught}} after being defeated. In the Mega Dimension DLC, all Rogue Mega-Pokémon battled as part of the main {{DL|Mission (Legends: Z-A)|hyperspace missions}}, as well as {{p|Zeraora}}, can also be obtained, and are in fact required to be captured.
* Mega {{p|Crabominable}} and Mega Zeraora are the only Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon that are fought as part of {{DL|Mission (Legends: Z-A)|side missions}}.
* Mega Zeraora and Mega {{p|Garchomp}} Z are the only Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon to be [[Event Pokémon|event-exclusive]]. While Mega Zeraora's EX side mission does not itself require a specific event for it to trigger, it requires the first two EX side missions, unlocked with the [[Mystery Gift]] distributions for the [[Diancite]] and the [[Mewtwonite X]] and [[Mewtwonite Y]], to be cleared in order to trigger.
* Mega {{p|Rayquaza}} is the only Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon battled in the Mega Dimension DLC whose Mega Evolution was introduced in [[Generation VI]]. While the [[Primal Reversion|primal states]] of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} were also introduced in Generation VI, they are not considered to be Mega Evolutions.
* After defeating Rogue Mega Absol, all the Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon faced in [[Lumiose City]] appear in groups of three, with each group having at least one Mega Evolution newly introduced in Pokémon Legends: Z-A.
* Every Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon battled as part of the main hyperspace missions share exactly one [[type]] weakness with Mega {{p|Darkrai}}.
* The Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon bear some similarities to the [[Noble Pokémon]] from {{g|Legends: Arceus}}:
** Both groups have been affected by an outside source (either [[Ange]] or the [[Space-time distortion|space-time rift]]). In battle, these groups also appear larger than what is the usual for their species.
** Mechanically, both are fought in an arena with specific conditions untypical of average battles, such as an enlarged health bar. If the player loses, they may either restart the battle or from a certain checkpoint (with Rayquaza being the exception).
** Both groups play a major role in their respective main stories and can be rebattled post-game for rewards. Similarly, {{p|Zygarde}} in Legends: Z-A, and {{ga|Arceus}}, {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} in Legends: Arceus, while technically not part of their respective groups, can be rematched, as they are fought in similar ways.
** Battles against Noble Pokémon reuse a leitmotif from the {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} Wild Battle track, while battles against Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon typically use a leitmotif from the {{g|X and Y}} Wild Battle track.
* This phenomenon shares some similarities to the effects of [[Laquium]] in {{aniseries|HZ}}, as both turn the Pokémon more powerful, but causes them to enter a berserk state, signaled by a pink aura.
* None of the major Rogue Mega Evolutions are {{type|Normal}}. Although {{p|Staraptor}} is dual-type Normal/{{t|Flying}}, its primary type is replaced by the {{t|Fighting}} type as Mega Staraptor.

'''Roy's Lucario''' (Japanese: '''ロイのルカリオ''' ''Roy's Lucario''), also known as the (Japanese: '''黄色いルカリオ''' ''Yellow Lucario'') and (Japanese: '''イエローブラスト''' ''Yellow Blast''), is [[Roy]]'s third known {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It is a [[Shiny Pokémon]].

==History==

=== ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]'' ===
As revealed in [[HZ112]], Lucario, known as the '''Yellow Blast''' (Japanese: '''イエローブラスト''' ''Yellow Blast'') at the time, was considered to be the strongest Pokémon living at the [[Mayo Maze Palace]] in the [[Kalos]] [[region]], always looking out for opponents at its level. After the incident in [[Laqua]], [[Master Mayonnaise]] tasked [[Roy]] and [[Ult]] to find the palace and challenge the Yellow Blast as part of their [[Mega Evolution]] training. However, after making their way there, both of them were easily defeated by Lucario due to its speed. In the [[HZ113|next episode]], Lucario led Roy and Ult back to its lair, giving the two trainers a chance for a rematch.

In [[HZ114]], Lucario battled both Roy and Ult once more. Although Ult Mega Evolved his {{p|Sableye}}, due to its inexperience with Mega Evolution, Lucario still managed to defeat it, with {{DL|Roy|Crocalor}} being the only one left to battle. Despite the odds, thanks to Roy's singing and predictions, Crocalor was able to avoid Lucario's attacks and counter its speed. Upon sensing Roy's [[aura]], Lucario was so motivated that it somehow Mega Evolved even though Roy had not {{pkmn2|caught}} it yet. Mega Lucario then attacked Crocalor with Flash Cannon, but it was ultimately defeated by Crocalor's {{m|Flamethrower}}. Inspired by both Roy and Crocalor's strength, Lucario begged Roy to let it join his team, after which Roy caught Lucario as his third Pokemon.[[File:Roy and Lucario.png|thumb|250px|left|Lucario and Roy]]
Lucario debuted at the very end of ''[[HZ089|Where the Adventure Leads]]'', where it was seen alongside [[Roy]] and the rest of his [[Party|team]].

In ''[[HZ090|Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 1]]'', Lucario was used to battle against a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Slaking}} that was being influenced by [[Laquium]]. It immediately [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] alongside [[Ult]]'s {{p|Sableye}}, allowing them to weaken their opponent enough for [[Captain Pikachu]] to finish it off. In the [[HZ091|following episode]], Lucario went up against [[Ann]]'s {{p|Samurott}} and won.

In [[HZ101]], Lucario teamed up with Crocalor for a [[Double Battle]] against {{an|Nemona}}'s {{p|Pawmot}} and {{p|Ribombee}}. They initially struggled against their opponents, as their defined roles as attacker and support, respectively, allowed them to deal big damage and remain healthy through most of the battle. Once Roy managed to disrupt it, however, they were able to launch a strong counterattack. Soon, Lucario Mega Evolved while Pawmot {{Tera}}stallized, and the ensuing clash of {{t|Fighting}} [[type]]s ended up with Lucario's victory, thus making Roy win by default.

In [[HZ107]], Lucario, alongside the rest of Roy's party and Ult's Sableye, battled against [[Indy]] and [[Rubella]]'s {{form|Darmanitan|Zen Mode}} {{p|Darmanitan}}. Due to the [[Explorers]] being assisted by an army of {{p|Rabsca}}, they managed to keep the upper hand for the majority of the battle. However, once Ult's {{p|Dragonite}} emerged, Mega Evolved, and defeated the Rabsca, Lucario was able to Mega Evolve before teaming up with Mega Dragonite to deal the finishing blow.

In [[HZ110]], Lucario was used alongside the rest of Roy, [[Liko]], and Ult's Pokémon to battle against five of the Six Heroes, who were under the influence of the Super [[Strong Sphere]]s. Together, they stalled for time to allow Pagogo to purify the Laquium away from the heroes' bodies, only for the Explorers to use the Super Strong Spheres on them a second time. In the [[HZ111|following episode]], after being Mega Evolved, Lucario teamed up with Ult's Mega Dragonite to take on {{TP|Lucius|Moltres}} and {{TP|Lucius|Lapras}}. They performed a combination tactic that temporarily stunned their opponents, but before they could follow up with an actual attack, Lucario and Dragonite were simultaneously taken out by {{TP|Lucius|Arboliva}}.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Roy and Lucario Aura.png|thumb|250px|Lucario and [[Roy]] connecting through [[Aura]]]]
This Lucario, distinct with its rare yellow [[Aura]]—a potential mark of its Shininess—forges a particularly strong bond with [[Roy]] through its sensitivity to Aura. More than just loyal, this Pokémon exhibits a remarkable battle readiness and has proven to be a formidable force, even capable of [[Mega Evolution]], making it a dependable asset in any challenge Roy faces. Lucario's ability to sense Aura has been helpful when predicting its opponents' next move, as seen in its battle against [[Ann]]'s {{p|Samurott}} in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 2]]'' and the [[Laquium]]-afflicted {{p|Steelix}} in ''[[HZ092|Following Traces of Laquium]]''.
[[File:Roy Lucario Lucarionite.png|left|thumb|250px|Lucario's [[Lucarionite]]]]
Lucario has a mostly stoic and serious personality, much like most of its {{p|Lucario|species}}. Due to it being caught after the disbandment of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], Lucario is not used to the eccentric dynamics of all the younger members and their Pokémon and tends to either keep to itself or be confused over certain situations that everyone else is used to, like in ''[[HZ093|Clash of the Nidothing Fans]]'', where Roy was singing to calm down the angered {{p|Fearow}} and {{p|Dodrio}} and everyone else was having fun and adding to the song in their own way and the Aura Pokémon just stood there awkwardly while watching [[Ult]]'s {{p|Sableye}} dance, seemingly confused and unsure of what to do. Despite this, Lucario is capable of working alongside the Pokémon owned by the younger members, and even supporting them, like when it teamed up with [[Liko's Meowscarada]] against the Steelix or protected {{TP|Liko|Hattrem}} against the Laquium-afflicted {{p|Vileplume}} in ''[[HZ094|The Pokémon Center Lady]]''.

Similar to its Trainer, Lucario has also shown to become exasperated by the antics of others, as seen it [[HZ096|''Crash! Team Dragon Rampage'']], where [[Roy's Crocalor]] was too full to battle and Roy had to use it instead or when Ult was heading in the wrong direction and it looked very unimpressed. Despite this, Lucario is still capable of showing joy and affection towards its Trainer and fellow teammates, especially Roy, as its very fond of him and is always eager to help him. Lucario seems to have an interesting relationship with Ult's Sableye as the two of them often battle and work well together, especially when they Mega Evolve, likely due to them training together in [[Kalos]] alongside their Trainers. Also, like their Trainers, they can be at odds with each other and Lucario would tease Sableye, but does share a fist bump with the Darkness Pokémon after working together to win a battle.

Despite always being ready to assist Roy in more serious situations, Lucario has also shown an eagerness for friendly battles as well, as shown in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 2]]'' and [[HZ101]]. Like [[Roy's Kilowattrel]], Lucario works well with Crocalor, despite their different battle styles. In [[HZ105]], Lucario is shown to be a good swimmer and enjoys other activities such as surfing with Roy.

** To appear in {{aniseries|HZ}} that is not a [[Legendary Pokémon]].
** To appear in ''Pokémon Horizons: The Series'' that sparkles as it exits its [[Poké Ball]].

At some point, Roy successfully caught Lucario during his stay in Kalos. Lucario debuted at the very end of ''[[HZ089|Where the Adventure Leads]]'', where it was seen alongside [[Roy]] and the rest of his [[Party|team]].

In ''[[HZ090|Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 1]]'', Lucario was used to battle against a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Slaking}} that was being influenced by [[Laquium]].

Together, they stalled for time to allow Pagogo to purify the Laquium away from the heroes' bodies, only for the Explorers to use the Super Strong Spheres on them a second time. In the [[HZ111|following episode]], after being Mega Evolved, Lucario teamed up with Ult's Mega Dragonite to take on {{TP|Lucius|Moltres}} and {{TP|Lucius|Lapras}}. They performed a combination tactic that temporarily stunned their opponents, but before they could follow up with an actual attack, Lucario and Dragonite were simultaneously taken out by {{TP|Lucius|Arboliva}}.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Roy and Lucario Aura.png|thumb|250px|Lucario and [[Roy]] connecting through [[Aura]]]]
This Lucario, distinct with its rare yellow [[Aura]]—a potential mark of its Shininess—forges a particularly strong bond with [[Roy]] through its sensitivity to Aura. More than just loyal, this Pokémon exhibits a remarkable battle readiness and has proven to be a formidable force, even capable of [[Mega Evolution]], making it a dependable asset in any challenge Roy faces. Lucario's ability to sense Aura has been helpful when predicting its opponents' next move, as seen in its battle against [[Ann]]'s {{p|Samurott}} in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 2]]'' and the [[Laquium]]-afflicted {{p|Steelix}} in ''[[HZ092|Following Traces of Laquium]]''.
[[File:Roy Lucario Lucarionite.png|left|thumb|250px|Lucario's [[Lucarionite]]]]
Lucario has a mostly stoic and serious personality, much like most of its {{p|Lucario|species}}. Due to it being caught after the disbandment of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], Lucario is not used to the eccentric dynamics of all the younger members and their Pokémon and tends to either keep to itself or be confused over certain situations that everyone else is used to, like in ''[[HZ093|Clash of the Nidothing Fans]]'', where Roy was singing to calm down the angered {{p|Fearow}} and {{p|Dodrio}} and everyone else was having fun and adding to the song in their own way and the Aura Pokémon just stood there awkwardly while watching [[Ult]]'s {{p|Sableye}} dance, seemingly confused and unsure of what to do. Despite this, Lucario is capable of working alongside the Pokémon owned by the younger members, and even supporting them, like when it teamed up with [[Liko's Meowscarada]] against the Steelix or protected {{TP|Liko|Hattrem}} against the Laquium-afflicted {{p|Vileplume}} in [[HZ094]].

Similar to its Trainer, Lucario has also shown to become exasperated by the antics of others, as seen it [[HZ096]], where [[Roy's Crocalor]] was too full to battle and Roy had to use it instead or when Ult was heading in the wrong direction and it looked very unimpressed. Despite this, Lucario is still capable of showing joy and affection towards its Trainer and fellow teammates, especially Roy, as its very fond of him and is always eager to help him. Lucario seems to have an interesting relationship with Ult's Sableye as the two of them often battle and work well together, especially when they Mega Evolve, likely due to them training together in [[Kalos]] alongside their Trainers. Also, like their Trainers, they can be at odds with each other and Lucario would tease Sableye, but does share a fist bump with the Darkness Pokémon after working together to win a battle.

Despite always being ready to assist Roy in more serious situations, Lucario has also shown an eagerness for friendly battles as well, as shown in ''[[HZ091|Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 2]]'' and [[HZ101]]. Like [[Roy's Kilowattrel]], Lucario works well with Crocalor, despite their different battle styles. In [[HZ105]], Lucario is shown to be a good swimmer and enjoys other activities such as surfing with Roy.

List of Pokémon with unique type combinations

2025-05-28T16:14:24Z

Immblueversion: /* List of Pokémon with formerly unique type combinations */ Registeel was the only pure Steel type until Klink, Klang, and Klinklang

This is a '''list of Pokémon with unique type combinations''' across the [[generation]]s. A Pokémon qualifies as having a unique [[type]] combination if no other Pokémon aside from any evolutionary relatives has that type combination. Since the game rarely makes a distinction between a Pokémon's first and second types when calculating damage, this list does not consider every permutation of types, but instead considers only combinations. In other words, Pokémon such as {{p|Spiritomb}} (a {{2t|Ghost|Dark}}-type Pokémon) and {{p|Sableye}} (a {{2t|Dark|Ghost}}-type Pokémon) are treated as having the same type combination.

Unown Report

2025-03-17T17:37:04Z

Immblueversion: /* Trivia */ All Unown words are verbs except X, ! and ?

The '''Unown Report''' (Japanese: '''アンノーンノート''' ''{{p|Unown|Unknown}} Notebook'') is a [[Key Item]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. It replaces the [[Unown Mode]] of the [[Pokédex]] in the [[Generation II]] games.

==In the core series games==
===Price===
{{ItemPrice/head|Key items}}
{{ItemPrice|{{gameabbrev4|HGSS}}|N/A|N/A}}
|}
|}

===Effect===
The Unown Report records the different [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Unown|forms]] of {{p|Unown}} {{pkmn2|caught}} by the {{player}}.

As more Unown forms are captured, the researchers learn more about the Unown and the history of the ruins. Whenever the researchers make discoveries, the player will make note of them in the Report. After capturing the 26 alphabetical Unown forms, opening the hidden rooms in each of the four stone panel chambers, and completing Page 7 of the Unown Report, the '''!''' and '''?''' forms start to appear in the ruins' main chamber and must be caught to complete the research.

===Unlock criteria===
Pages 1-4 are unlocked by default.

Page 5 is unlocked when the player catches an Unown.

Page 6 is unlocked when enough Unown are caught to fill Page 2 of the report. This also sorts the caught Unown in alphabetical order.

Page 7 is unlocked when all 26 alphabetical Unown forms are caught.

Page 8 is unlocked when all four hidden rooms are opened, and the player observes the entrance room's inscription.

Page 9 is unlocked when the ! and ? forms of Unown are caught.

====Page 4====
Found a strange puzzle in the ruins. Solved it, and suddenly a hole opened up in the ground and I dropped into the room below! Should have known that ancient ruins would have surprising tricks like that.

There was a stone statue where I fell. The place might have been a reception hall. Then, suddenly, the <sc>Unown</sc> appeared. That puzzle was like a key somehow. It woke the <sc>Unown</sc> up from their sleep. These ruins have become difficult.

====Page 5====
If you turn on the radio in the ruins, you can receive mysterious radio waves! It's proof that the <sc>Unown</sc> communicate with each other using radio waves!

There are as many <sc>Unown</sc> as there are letters in the alphabet. Right now, we're confirming the existence of 26 kinds of <sc>Unown</sc>. Do you think you can find all 26 of them?

====Page 6====
It seems that individually they don't make much sense, but when the various <sc>Unown</sc> are arranged in order, they begin to make sense. In nature, they seem to be scattered around randomly, but the truth is they're arranged in a very specific order.

In this report, the scattered <sc>Unown</sc> were sorted and put into order by the research-center staff. That makes the <sc>Unown</sc> much easier to understand.

====Page 7====
Scratched on the floor of the ruins are <sc>Unown</sc> letters. Finding the room feels like a huge discovery! The Researchers were very excited and said they were going to go check it out.

There aren't just 26 different kinds of <sc>Unown</sc>, Two more have been discovered! But that begs the question of where those other two kinds are hiding...

====Page 8====
The characters found scratched on the floor in the small room are transcribed here in this report.

We don't know what this could possibly mean yet.

The Researchers were saying they'll need to examine the ruins again, but...?

====Page 9====
In the past, it seems that <sc>Unown</sc> lived with relatives of humans in these ruins. In the lower levels of these ruins is a Pokémon statue. We've come to understand that it was those relatives who made that statue.

The <sc>Unown</sc> are very timid creatures, so they don't go outside the ruins. Even if a bunch of people gathered near the ruins, it is said that the ones who wished for <sc>Unown</sc> and humans to again coexist have all left.

==Trivia==
* The only Unown whose associated word was changed was Unown A; the word was the adjective "Angry" in [[Unown Mode]] and in the Japanese versions. It was changed to the verb "Anger" in non-Japanese versions to match this Unown's {{TCG|Pokémon Power}} in [[Unown A (Neo Discovery 14)|its first TCG card]].

'''Chalce''' (Japanese: '''アゲート''' ''Agate''<ref>Explorers Original Acrylic Stand</ref>) is one of the admins of the [[Explorers]], and a recurring major antagonist in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''.

==In animation==
===History===
[[File:Chalce.png|250px|left|thumb|Chalce in {{aniseries|HZ}}]]
Chalce first appeared as a hologram in ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', alongside the other [[Explorers]]'s admins.

The first time she spoke and was seen clearly was in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]'', questioning [[Spinel]] about his last failure.

She made her physical debut in ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]''. She and the other admins joined in a meeting to discuss the Explorers' next objective. Eventually, they decided to go after the [[Black Rayquaza]]. Despite remaining quiet for practically the entire meeting, she questioned Spinel about what he actually had in mind during his participation in the meeting.

In ''[[HZ034|Respective Departures]]'', Chalce was monitoring [[Amethio]]'s training with [[Hamber]] with Spinel, so they decided to focus on their main objective, which is finding Black Rayquaza.

In ''[[HZ044|The Plan to Capture Rayquaza]]'', Chalce, [[Coral]], and [[Sidian]] summoned the Black Rayquaza near [[Levincia]] by using a machine that generated an energy similar to that [[Pagogo|Terapagos]] emitted [[HZ033|previously]] and had their Pokémon battle against the {{pkmn|category|Sky High Pokémon}}. They started strong, unleashing powerful super effective moves, but lost control over Rayquaza once [[Dot]] managed to shut down the machine. Once the tides had turned, Coral let her temper overcome better judgment and commanded her {{p|Glalie}} to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, which was powerful enough to blast the [[Legendary Pokémon]] directly into the hull of the [[Brave Olivine]].
[[File:Chalce Naranja Academy.png|left|250px|thumb|Chalce as "Chive"]]
In ''[[HZ046|Welcome to Naranja Academy!]]'', Chalce was shown to have infiltrated [[Naranja Academy]] as a teacher, while also being able to forge enrollment permits for Coral and Sidian as students under fake names.

In ''[[HZ055|Showdown! The Paldea Elite Four]]'', Chalce watched Coral and Sidian's battles against the members of [[Paldea]]'s [[Elite Four]]. During [[Liko]]'s battle against [[Rika]] in the [[HZ056|following episode]], Dot discovered that Chalce was being spied on by [[Penny]] after discovering that Explorer's profile was illegally placed in the Naranja Academy system under the pseudonym '''Chive''' (Japanese: '''アゲパン''' ''Agepan''). After a brief conversation with Dot, Chalce returned the [[Scarlet Book]] to the academy's library and left.
[[File:Spinel Chalce HZ064.png|250px|thumb|Spinel explaining his findings about [[Laquium]] to Chalce]]
In [[HZ064]], Chalce helped Spinel separate Liko, [[Roy]], and Dot's group as per his goals. After Spinel trapped Liko and Amethio in a cave, Spinel revealed to Chalce what he discovered after using the [[Laquium]], which left Chalce in awe. In the [[HZ065|next episode]], Chalce monitored Coral and Sidian's battle against Roy and Dot and upon [[Grusha]]'s arrival on the battlefield, she ordered their retreat. Later, during the meeting with [[Gibeon]], Chalce acted as Spinel orchestrated and acted in a way that made it seem as though she had no part in the events that occurred at [[Glaseado Mountain]], resulting in Amethio's expulsion from the Explorers.

In [[HZ066]], Chalce had infiltrated the Naranja Academy to steal data regarding Terapagos. She sent Sidian and Coral to prevent Liko and Roy from interfering, while she sent her {{p|Medicham}} to keep guard. Medicham proceeded to alert Chalce of Dot's arrival and battled {{TP|Dot|Quaxwell}} to stall them both. Despite interference from [[Dot's Tinkatink]] and Penny's counter-hacking, Chalce still successfully acquired the data before recalling Medicham and teleporting away with her {{p|Xatu}} to escape.

In [[HZ067]], Chalce met up with Spinel at the Explorers base and, looking at the data she stole, they discussed on their next moves.

In [[HZ075]], Chalce met with Spinel at [[Exceed]] headquarters ands the two discussed Amethio's current whereabouts and their goal to find Laqua.

===Character===
Chalce appears to have a calm and collected personality; she does, however, tend to be critical towards her allies if they fail missions, such as with [[Spinel]] and [[Amethio]], as well as having a sarcastic sense of humor. She is also shown to be a skeptic, dismissing the existence of the [[Paradox Pokémon|ancient Pokémon]] discussed in {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} as nonsense. She appears to get along with Spinel, with both of them being {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who specialize in gathering information, being discreet and using subterfuge.

Amidst the power struggle between the [[Explorers]], Chalce proved to be quite loyal to Spinel's goals, helping him monitor his targets and joining him during the mission to try to get Amethio out of the way in [[HZ064]]. The fact she was willing to do so without hesitation indicates her more cruel and cold-hearted nature.

===Pokémon===
As seen so far, Chalce appears to specialize in {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

|desc={{p|Medicham}} is Chalce's first known Pokémon as well as her main partner. Like its Trainer, Medicham shares a calm and reserved personality. This was seen in ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]'', where Medicham only avoided direct contact with [[Coral]]'s {{p|Glalie}}.

In ''[[HZ044|The Plan to Capture Rayquaza]]'', Medicham was used to battle against the [[Black Rayquaza]], where it, Coral's Glalie, and [[Sidian]]'s {{p|Garganacl}} joined forces to damage it with their combined attacks. [[Roy]] tried to stop Chalce from catching Rayquaza with an [[Ultra Ball]] by having his {{TP|Roy|Wattrel}} knock the Ball away with {{m|Spark}}, only for Medicham to knock it out of the sky with {{m|Psybeam}}. It soon battled [[Dot]]'s {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} and {{TP|Dot|Tinkatink}}, but this was merely a distraction to allow Dot to deactivate the generator that was luring in Rayquaza. It was then subsequently struck and defeated by Rayquaza's {{m|Draco Meteor}}, after which it was [[recall]]ed by Chalce before retreating.

In [[HZ064]], Medicham used its psychic powers to move a boulder to block [[Liko]]'s path and seperate her from her friends, as part of [[Spinel]]'s plans. In [[HZ066]], Medicham was used to battle and stall Dot and her {{p|Quaxwell}} to prevent them from interfering with Chalce's plans. After Chalce acquired the data regarding [[Pagogo|Terapagos]], she recalled Medicham and escaped with her Xatu's {{m|Teleport}}.

Medicham's known moves are {{m|Psybeam}}, {{m|Zen Headbutt}}, and {{m|Confusion}}.}}

'''Sidian''' (Japanese: '''オニキス''' '' Onyx''<ref>Explorers Original Acrylic Stand</ref>) is one of the admins of the [[Explorers]], and a recurring major antagonist in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''.

==In animation==
===History===
[[File:Sidian.png|250px|left|thumb|Sidian]]
Sidian first appeared as a hologram in ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', alongside the other [[Explorers]]'s admins. The first time he spoke and was seen clearly was in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]'', judging [[Spinel]] over his last failure.

He made his physical debut in ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]''. At [[Hamber]]'s request, Sidian and [[Coral]] accompanied him to the [[Galar]] [[region]]. In the [[HZ025|next episode]], after tracking down [[Amethio]]'s location, the group arrived at the [[ancient castle]] where [[Diana]] was living at. Despite Hamber ordering them to stay on standby while he secured their target, Coral and Sidian invaded the location. He had his {{p|Garganacl}} indiscriminately take out the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} living in the castle before he and Coral cornered [[Liko]] and [[Roy]], only to be stopped by the sudden arrival of [[Captain Pikachu]]. Once Cap took out Sidian's Garganacl, Coral snapped and recklessly ordered her {{p|Glalie}} to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, allowing the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] to escape and leaving the ancient castle in ruins.

In ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]'', Sidian and the other admins joined in a meeting to discuss the Explorers' next objective. Eventually, they decided to go after the [[Black Rayquaza]].

In ''[[HZ043|A Challenge from the Explorers]]'', Sidian and Coral arrived in a seaside town in [[Paldea]]. Coral had led him there under the guise of finding something important, which was actually some rare Wiglett sweet buns. However, upon finding out they had sold out and that Liko and Roy had managed to get a box without even lining up, she left them a challenge letter on the back of [[Roy's Fuecoco]]. While Coral faced Roy, Sidian stepped in to take Liko on. Despite the rough start, the young Rising Volt Tacklers refused to give up and eventually broke through their foes' strategies. Impressed, the two Explorers decided to stop holding back, but were forced to withdraw after Sidian received a call to take part in mission involving the Black Rayquaza.

In ''[[HZ044|The Plan to Capture Rayquaza]]'', Sidian, Coral, and [[Chalce]] summoned the Black Rayquaza near [[Levincia]] by using a machine that generated an energy similar to that {{an|Terapagos}} emitted [[HZ033|previously]] and had their Pokémon battle against the {{pkmn|category|Sky High Pokémon}}. They started strong, unleashing powerful super effective moves, but lost control over Rayquaza once [[Dot]] managed to shut down the machine. Once again, Coral let her temper overcome her better judgment and commanded Glalie to use Self-Destruct, which collided with Rayquaza's {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. The resulting explosion was powerful enough to blast the [[Legendary Pokémon]] directly into the hull of the [[Brave Olivine]].
[[File:Sidian Naranja Academy.png|250px|thumb|Sidian as Seasoning]]
In ''[[HZ046|Welcome to Naranja Academy!]]'', along with Coral, Sidian enrolled in [[Naranja Academy]] as part of the [[Tera Training]]. Sidian introduced himself to [[Clavell]] under the name '''Seasoning''' (Japanese: '''オニギリ''' ''Onigiri''), much to Coral's amusement.

In ''[[HZ050|Trending Terastallization! Dance, Dance, Quaxly!]]'', Sidian was caught spying on Liko, Roy and Dot along with Coral by Clavell, believing that they were just wanting to know about their Academy colleagues, Clavell invited them both to watch Dot's battle against [[Iono]], but eventually, Sidian left Clavell talking alone when Coral decided to go after food and Sidian went after her.

In ''[[HZ055|Showdown! The Paldea Elite Four]]'', it was revealed that Sidian managed to pass the first phase of Tera Training. During the [[Elite Four Tag Battle]], Sidian confronted [[Rika]] alongside [[Tulip]], but was defeated for insisting on protecting his ally's Pokémon. After a brief conversation with the Gym Leader about why this happened, Sidian left so Rika could begin her battle against Liko.

In [[HZ057]], Sidian and Coral were seen with the other students during Clavell's speech that began the second part of the Training. Despite this, his Gym challenge was not revealed.

In [[HZ058]], Sidian decided to have food at the [[Anything Eatery]]. Shortly after entering, he encountered Liko, Roy, and Dot again. When Dot's {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} accidentally crashed into Sidian's leg, he mistakenly assumed Dot had challenged him to a [[Pokémon battle]]. Seeing this as an opportunity to advertise and bring customers to the struggling eatery, Dot accepted the challenge and used Quaxly to battle Sidian's Garganacl. During the battle, the collision of Garganacl's {{m|Salt Cure}} and Quaxly's {{m|Low Kick}} caused salt to spread across the street, attracting the attention of customers. Although confused the battle ended without a winner, a hungry Sidian decided to partake in the eatery's new menu item, which he enjoyed.

In [[HZ064]], Sidian and Coral surrounded Roy and Dot on Spinel's orders, abandoning their student disguise. In [[HZ065|the next episode]], Sidian and Coral battled against Roy and Dot to stall them, but before Coral's Glalie could finish off their opponents, they were interrupted by [[Grusha]]'s arrival, so Chalce commanded the two admins to retreat. At their base the Explorers Admins gathered to ask Amethio if he had betrayed the Explorers by helping out Liko in escaping from a cave after seeing the footage recorded by Spinel's {{p|Beheeyem}} and why he did not catch Terapagos when he had the chance. Before Amethio could give a proper explanation, Gibeon arrived and expelled his grandson from the Explorers for helping their enemies.

In [[HZ066]], while Chalce hacked Naranja Academy's systems to steal data on Terapagos, Sidian and Coral were ordered to prevent anyone from interfering with the mission. Later, on top of the academy's bridge, he encountered Liko, who had been made aware of the sabotage and went to confront the Explorers. Garganacl initially fought evenly with Floragato, only for the former to gain the upper hand once Sidian Terastallized it. Refusing to back down, Liko Terastallized Floragato as well, giving her enough of a boost to defeat Garganacl. After his defeat Sidian acknowledged Liko's strength and told her not to forget his name before leaving and taking Coral with him, much to her anger. In the [[HZ067|following episode]], Sidian and Coral reflected over their defeats before enjoying a rice ball and sandwich, respectively.

In [[HZ079]], Hamber ordered Sidian and Coral to follow the Rising Volt Tacklers to [[Area Zero]].

===Character===
[[File:Cornbread and Seasoning.png|250px|thumb|Sidian and Coral]]
Sidian overall appears to have a serious and stoic personality, hardly showing strong emotions at times, although he can still get frustrated or irritated when insulted by others, such as his fellow admin [[Coral]]. He usually obeys the orders of his superiors such as [[Hamber]] without much issues. Like Coral, Sidian can at times be less disciplined and more aggressive than his fellow admins, though less often than Coral. Sidian has a ruthless and combative disposition when operating, as seen during the siege on [[Diana]]'s castle where he not only disobeyed orders to standby, but also commanded his {{p|Garganacl}} to indiscriminately attack and take out every Pokémon in his path by having them inflicted with {{m|Salt Cure}}. In [[HZ066]] he had his Garganacl attack both a security guard and his Psyduck with Salt Cure for getting in their way, further showing his ruthless nature.

Nonetheless Sidian has his own personal limits and considers even Coral's volatile actions to be reckless. Sidian is notably level-headed and calm, and because of this he often stays around Coral to keep her volatile behavior in check. In line with his level-headedness, he appears to be surprisingly honorable, as shown in ''[[HZ043|A Challenge from the Explorers]]'', politely asking Liko to be his opponent and to fight with honor, without the use of dirty or underhanded tactics. Sidian's sense of honor is further shown in ''[[HZ055|Showdown! The Paldea Elite Four]]'', telling [[Rika]] that he couldn't allow [[Tulip]], his [[Tag Battle]] partner, to suffer to guarantee his victory, and further remarking there's no point in disgraceful victories.

===Pokémon===
As seen so far, Sidian appears to specialize in {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.

|desc={{p|Garganacl}} is Sidian's first known Pokémon as well as his main partner. It is capable of {{Tera}}stallizing into a Rock type.

In ''[[HZ025|Rivals in the Dark of Night!]]'', Garganacl indiscriminately defeated most the Pokémon living at the [[ancient castle]] before being used to battle [[Liko]] and [[Roy]]. [[Captain Pikachu]] arrived in time to rescue them and Garganacl tried to hit him with Salt Cure, but Pikachu was able to avoid it and hit Garganacl with a {{m|Volt Tackle}}, temporarily taking it out of the fight. However, when [[Coral]] recklessly commanded {{p|Glalie}} to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, much to Sidian's protest, Garganacl was unfortunately defeated by Glalie's attack, which took Glalie itself out as well.

In ''[[HZ055|Showdown! The Paldea Elite Four]]'', Garganacl was used by Sidian in the battle against [[Rika]]. Largely because of their way of battling, Sidian and Garganacl were easily defeated.

In [[HZ058]], Garganacl was used by Sidian in the battle against [[Dot]] and {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}}. The battle ended without a winner after Dot decided to use the aroma of the new noodles and the salt that spread in the battle to attract new customers to [[Anything Eatery]].

In [[HZ065]], Garganacl and Glalie teamed up yet again against Roy's Fuecoco and [[Dot's Quaxwell]]. The battle remained firmly on Sidian and Coral's side up until [[Grusha]] interfered to protect Roy and Dot from the Explorers duo. Once Chalce ordered Sidian and Coral to retreat, Garganacl was [[recall]]ed.

'''Coral''' (Japanese: '''サンゴ''' ''Sango''<ref>Explorers Original Acrylic Stand</ref>) is one of the admins of the [[Explorers]], and a major antagonist in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''.

==In animation==
===History===
[[File:Coral.png|250px|left|thumb|Coral]]
Coral first appeared as a hologram in ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', alongside the other [[Explorers]]'s admins. The first time she spoke and was seen clearly was in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]'', taunting [[Spinel]] about his last failure.

She made her physical debut in ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]''. At [[Hamber]]'s request, Coral and [[Sidian]] accompanied him to the [[Galar]] [[region]]. In the [[HZ025|next episode]], after tracking down [[Amethio]]'s location, the group arrived at the [[old castle]] where [[Diana]] was living at. Despite Hamber ordering them to stay on standby while he secured their target, Coral and Sidian invaded the location and cornered [[Liko]] and [[Roy]], only to be stopped by the sudden arrival of [[Captain Pikachu]]. Once Cap took out Sidian's {{p|Garganacl}}, Coral snapped and recklessly ordered her {{p|Glalie}} to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, allowing the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] to escape and leaving the old castle in ruins.

In ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]'', Coral and the other admins joined in a meeting to discuss the Explorers' next objective. Eventually, they decided to go after the [[Black Rayquaza]].

In ''[[HZ043|A Challenge from the Explorers]]'', Coral and Sidian arrived in a seaside town in [[Paldea]]. Coral had led him there under the guise of finding something important, which was actually some rare Wiglett sweet buns. However, upon finding out they had sold out and that Liko and Roy had managed to get a box without even lining up, she left them a challenge letter on the back of [[Roy's Fuecoco]]. While Coral faced Roy, Sidian stepped in to take Liko on. Despite the rough start, the young Rising Volt Tacklers refused to give up and eventually broke through their foes' strategies. Impressed, the two Explorers decided to stop holding back, but were forced to withdraw after Sidian received a call to take part in mission involving the Black Rayquaza.
[[File:Coral Naranja Academy.png|250px|left|thumb|Coral as Cornbread]]
In ''[[HZ044|The Plan to Capture Rayquaza]]'', Coral, Sidian, and [[Chalce]] summoned the Black Rayquaza near [[Levincia]] by using a machine that generated an energy similar to that {{an|Terapagos}} emitted [[HZ033|previously]] and had their Pokémon battle against the {{pkmn|category|Sky High Pokémon}}. They started strong, unleashing powerful super effective moves, but lost control over Rayquaza once [[Dot]] managed to shut down the machine. Once again, Coral let her temper overcome her better judgment and commanded Glalie to use Self-Destruct, which collided with Rayquaza's {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. The resulting explosion was powerful enough to blast the [[Legendary Pokémon]] directly into the hull of the [[Brave Olivine]].

In ''[[HZ045|From So Far Away]]'', the Explorers were forced to retreat after realizing their attacks failed to any lasting damage to Rayquaza. Later, Coral and the other admins were gathered to have a meeting with [[Gibeon]]. The admins were ordered to allow the Rising Volt Tacklers to keep gathering the [[Six Heroes]] and restore Terapagos's power, as this would benefit the Explorers' plans as well. Gibeon also told them to monitor Liko and Terapagos.

In ''[[HZ046|Welcome to Naranja Academy!]]'', Coral, along with Sidian, enrolled in [[Naranja Academy]] as part of the [[Tera Training]]. Sidian introduced Coral to [[Clavell]] under the name '''Cornbread''' (Japanese: '''サンドイッチ''' ''Sandwich''), much to her amusement.

In ''[[HZ047|Put Your Heart Into It!]]'', Coral was sent to [[Cortondo]] as part of course training. Having heard of Patisserie Soapberry's pastries, Coral was excited to try some. Much to her disdain, upon arriving, she discovered that the shop was out of stock for the day and angrily demanded some. [[Katy]] arrived and when she explained to her and Liko that she only had time for one of them, Coral impulsively demanded a match with Liko. Katy then pointed out that the students are not allowed to use {{Tera}}stallization against each other and suggested a bake-off. In the ensuing bake-off, Coral, being impatient and not knowing how to bake, made a mess and lost the competition. In anger, she had Glalie use {{m|Blizzard}} on the bakery. This caused Katy to glare and address her in a tone intimidating enough for Coral to storm out of the shop.
[[File:Coral and Kofu.png|250px|thumb|Coral and Kofu at the [[Elite Four Tag Battle]]]]
In ''[[HZ050|Trending Terastallization! Dance, Dance, Quaxly!]]'', Coral and Sidian were spying on Liko and Roy when they were approached by Clavell, so he thought the two were only interested in Liko and her group's battles. Clavell suggested them to go together to watch the battle at the [[Gym]]. Soon after, Coral decided to leave Clavell talking alone and went behind a food stall.

Prior to ''[[HZ055|Showdown! The Paldea Elite Four]]'', Coral managed to succeed in a new exam, this time against [[Kofu]]. When the Tera Training students returned, Coral was tasked with battling [[Larry]] alongside Kofu. During the battle, Coral caused all the Pokémon to be knocked out, including her Glalie, using Self-Destruct, thus being defeated in the battle. After being reprimanded for the way she acted, she left the arena in anger.
[[File:Cornbread and Seasoning.png|left|250px|thumb|Coral and Sidian]]
In [[HZ057]], Coral and Sidian were seen with the other students during Clavell's speech that began the second part of the Training. Despite this, her Gym challenge was not revealed.

In [[HZ064]], Coral and Sidian surrounded Roy and Dot on Spinel's orders, abandoning their student disguise. In [[HZ065|the next episode]], Coral and Sidian battled against Roy and Dot to stall them, but before Coral's Glalie could finish off their opponents, they were interrupted by [[Grusha]]'s arrival, so Chalce commanded the two admins to retreat. At their base the Explorers Admins gathered to ask Amethio if he had betrayed the Explorers by helping out Liko in escaping from a cave after seeing the footage recorded by Spinel's {{p|Beheeyem}} and why he did not catch Terapagos when he had the chance. Before Amethio could give a proper explanation, Gibeon arrived and expelled his grandson from the Explorers for helping their enemies.
[[File:Coral Tera Orb.png|250px|thumb|Coral's [[Tera Orb]]]]
In [[HZ066]], while Chalce hacked Naranja Academy's systems to steal data on Terapagos, Coral and Sidian were ordered to prevent anyone from interfering with the mission. Coral later encountered Roy, who had been made aware of the sabotage and went to confront the Explorers. After being lured outside of the academy's hallways, Coral faced Roy in a battle, only to end up defeated. Sidian then arrived and forced Coral to retreat with him, much to her anger. In the [[HZ067|following episode]], dejected over her defeat, Coral was seen enjoying a sandwich with her Glalie alongside Sidian, who had a rice ball.

In [[HZ079]], Hamber ordered Coral and Sidian to follow the Rising Volt Tacklers to [[Area Zero]]. In the [[HZ080|next episode]], Coral is observing the Rising Volt Tacklers, but decdied to go exploring Area Zero on her own. While exploring, Coral meets a {{p|Scream Tail}} but mistaken it for a {{p|Jigglypuff}} and decided to call it Onipurin. However, when a {{p|Great Tusk}} appeared, Coral and her Glalie team up with Onipurin to defeat it. After defeating Great Tusk, Coral accidentally catches Onipurin, adding it to her team, and reunites with Sidian.

===Character===
[[File:Coral temper.png|250px|left|thumb|Coral's temper]]
Coral appears to have a mostly cheery and playful personality, but likes to disrespectfully poke fun at her allies whenever they fail a mission. Along with [[Sidian]], Coral is considered a troublemaker due to her lack of discipline and reckless behavior in comparison to her fellow admins. Coral appears to have a volatile mood, as she quickly became furious when [[Captain Pikachu]] interrupted the [[Explorers]]' siege on the [[ancient castle]] and commanded her {{p|Glalie}} to {{m|Self-Destruct}} despite Sidian's protests. As seen in ''[[HZ043|A Challenge from the Explorers]]'', she is easily distracted, as she was shown focusing on her [[Rotom Phone]] during her battle with [[Roy]]. She also appears to place great importance on the value of collectible items, a behavior seen when she became angry over [[Liko]] opening a box of Wiglett sweet buns, ruining its pristine condition.
[[File:Liko and Coral rivalry.png|250px|thumb|Coral and Liko's rivalry]]
Coral is also quite childish and vain, occasionally referring to herself in the third-person and openly expressing how cute she is. In the Japanese version, she often uses the prefix '''オニ''' ''oni'' to emphasize her words. She's also quite the loudmouth, openly talking about the Explorers' plans in front of others, even their enemies, as she talked about the organization's intention to summon the [[Black Rayquaza]] in front of Liko and Roy. She also prioritizes dealing with her grudges more than the organization's plans as she refused to leave the battle with Liko and Roy at first, being dragged away by force by Sidian and his {{p|Aerodactyl}}. Ultimately, Coral's temperamental nature and grudges has often caused consequences for herself, such as getting disqualified by [[Katy]] for recklessly destroying the cake and attacking Liko in ''[[HZ047|Put Your Heart Into It!]]''. Keeping in line with her hot-headed nature Coral is also very impatient, to the point of wanting the end battles quickly rather than stall opponents for time as seen in [[HZ065]]. As seen in [[HZ066]] Coral is shown to be a sore loser, as seen when she reacted with anger and frustration after losing to Roy and his Fuecoco in battle.

After the battle at [[Naranja Academy]] in [[HZ067]], Coral began to show a lighter side, reflecting on her time as a student at the institution and sharing her food with Glalie.

|desc={{p|Glalie}} is Coral's first known Pokémon as well as her main partner. In addition to using it in battle, Coral uses Glalie as her transportation method.

In ''[[HZ025|Rivals in the Dark of Night!]]'', it was sent to battle [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] alongside [[Sidian]]'s {{p|Garganacl}} at the [[ancient castle]]. Once [[Captain Pikachu]] arrived to aid the young [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], however, Coral recklessly commanded Glalie to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, which abruptly ended the match.

In ''[[HZ043|A Challenge from the Explorers]]'', it was used to battle against [[Roy's Fuecoco]], though the battle was cut short due to new developments on the [[Explorers]]'s plan to summon the [[Black Rayquaza]], whom Glalie faced off alongside Sidian's Garganacl and [[Chalce]]'s {{p|Medicham}} in the [[HZ044|next episode]].

In ''[[HZ055|Showdown! The Paldea Elite Four]]'', Glalie was used by Coral in a [[Tag Battle]] alongside [[Kofu]] and his {{p|Wugtrio}} against [[Larry]]'s {{p|Flamigo}} and {{p|Oricorio}}. However, Coral caused all the Pokémon to be knocked out, Glalie itself included, by ordering it to use Self-Destruct, thus resulting in her and Kofu's defeat.

In [[HZ064]], Glalie was sent out alongside Sidian's Garganacl to confront Roy and Dot to stall them from rescuing Liko. In [[HZ065|the next episode]], Glalie and Garganacl teamed up yet again against Roy's Fuecoco and [[Dot's Quaxwell]]. The battle remained firmly on Coral and Sidian's side up until [[Grusha]] interfered to protect Roy and Dot from the Explorers duo.

In [[HZ066]], Glalie was used to battle against Roy's Fuecoco, but it was defeated by his {{m|Flamethrower}}. After being [[Fainting|knocked out]], Sidian forced Coral to retreat, so Glalie was [[recall]]ed.

Glalie's known moves are {{m|Blizzard}}, {{m|Self-Destruct}}, {{m|Crunch}}, and {{m|Ice Spinner}}.}}

'''Avery''' (Japanese: '''セイボリー''' ''Savory'') is the [[rival]] character in [[The Isle of Armor]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield}}. By the events of [[The Crown Tundra]], he becomes a {{type|Psychic}} [[Gym Leader]] in the [[Galar]] [[region]].

==In the core series games==
Avery comes from a long line of psychics who run the {{type|Psychic}} [[Gym]] in [[Galar]]. However, he is considered by his family to be a disappointment due to him only possessing telekinesis, and not more impressive skills like teleportation or telepathy. At some point, he obtained a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowpoke}}. Because of the pressure, he developed a very proud personality and a habit of levitating anyone who defeated him. This behavior led to his Gym Trainer's status being revoked. During his desperation and depression, he discovered the [[Master Dojo]], through his partner Slowpoke, that would lead him to visit the [[Isle of Armor]] to train under [[Mustard]] so he could improve on inheriting the position of Psychic-type [[Gym Leader]].

He is first seen by the {{player}} at [[Wedgehurst]] Station, obtaining the [[Armor Pass]] needed to visit the Isle of Armor. Before he can get on the train, a Galarian Slowpoke appeared blocking the way, which resulted in Avery requiring the player to catch it. After complimenting on the player's capture of Galarian Slowpoke, he gets on the train for the Isle of Armor. He eventually reached his location and becomes a student at the Master Dojo. He initially caused friction with the other students, but he started to become more friendly through Mustard and his wife, {{gal|Honey}}. Although he trained hard, he became lazy from the lack of a rival and motivation to improve himself.

The player meets Avery again once they arrive at the Isle of Armor. He challenges the player to a battle off the bat, assuming they are to be the Master Dojo's new student that he has been assigned to escort. After being defeated, he attempts to scare the player away from enrolling in the Dojo, and even lies to Honey about the student in question not wanting to show up, only for the player to eventually appear at the Dojo, much to Avery's shock. He threatens the player to not tell of what transpired. During Mustard's trials, his Dojo Uniform gets stolen by Mustard's three fast Slowpoke, which the player retrieves in short order. He battles the player over the next two trials, the former over a set of Max Mushrooms he claims discovered first, and the latter as part of a formal challenge. Avery cheats during the third trial by summoning {{m|Psychic Terrain}} before the battle starts. He is eventually defeated and feels guilty about playing dirty. As punishment, Mustard asks Avery to look after the Dojo Pokémon on his own.

In the post-game, after Mustard has been defeated in a final showdown, Avery can be rematched daily.

In the [[Galarian Star Tournament]], Avery reveals that he has become a minor division Psychic Gym Leader. After becoming a Gym Leader, Avery adds a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowking}} to his team, replacing his Galarian {{p|Slowbro}} as the last member of his team and his Pokémon of choice to [[Dynamax]].

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Avery's [[League Card]]s in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield]].
;Normal League Card
:"Avery comes from a long-standing family of psychics. Each Psychic-type Gym Leader of Galar has been from the same bloodline as Avery, and thus, Avery has been destined to bear the burden of Gym Leader since even before he was born. Ever since he was a child, Avery could freely move things with his mind but lacked other skills, such as teleportation or telepathy. This has caused the rest of his family to label him as a disappointment. Avery has a great deal of respect for Slowpoke, as they go about their business at their own pace, no matter what others say."
;Rare League Card
:"Avery has always been very proud and would levitate any opponent who dared defeat him. This behavior caused his status as a Gym Trainer to be revoked. During this time of despair and desperation, his Slowpoke found a flyer for the Master Dojo, leading to Avery's current circumstances. Avery caused friction with many of the other students initially, but the kindness of Honey and Mustard slowly helped him to mellow out and become more friendly. Recently he has been training hard with his now-evolved Slowbro to prove himself better than a certain new student at the dojo."

[[File:Avery Twilight Wings.png|thumb|250px|Avery in [[Pokémon: Twilight Wings]]]]
===Pokémon: Twilight Wings===
Avery appeared in ''[[TW08|The Gathering of Stars]]'', where he was seen levitating a fellow apprentice from the [[Master Dojo]] while he was demanding a rematch. He was then invited to the [[Galarian Star Tournament]] and was seen walking out onto the field at [[Wyndon Stadium]] for the opening ceremony.
{{-}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Avery Klara Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Avery in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Avery debuted in ''[[PASS31|Flutter!! Tickets to a New Land]]''. He is a student at the [[Master Dojo]] and studies under [[Mustard]]'s guidance. While training with [[Klara]] at the [[Soothing Wetlands]], Avery came across an unconscious [[Henry Sword]], suffering from the effects of {{p|Eternatus}}'s poison. While Henry recovered at the dojo, Klara was sent to greet a new student at the [[Fields of Honor|Armor Station]]. Not wanting to be left behind, Avery secretly followed Klara and witnessed her meeting [[Casey Shield]] and [[Marvin]] and mistakenly assuming they were the new students.

At the dojo, Casey and Marvin clarified that they weren't new students, much to Avery and Klara's relief. Casey and Marvin reunited with Henry and were tasked with gathering ingredients for an antidote to Eternatus's poison. At Klara's suggestion, Casey and her friends decided to collect sap at the [[Forest of Focus]]. Worried he was quickly becoming irrelevant, Avery offered to escort everyone to where the sap was located. Once the sap was successfully obtained, Avery and Klara went to deliver it to a [[Macro Cosmos]] employee.

In [[PASS35]], having been motivated by the sap-collecting excursion, Avery and Klara continued their training and successfully cleared the first trial.

{{main|Avery (Chilling Reign 130)}}
'''Avery''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Peerless Fighters}} subset before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Chilling Reign}} expansion, with artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by [[kirisAki]]. It allows the player to draw three cards, then the opponent discards Pokémon from their bench until they have three left.

==Trivia==
[[File:Company Icon Telescreen.png|thumb|150px|Icon of Telescreen, Avery's sponsor]]

* While Avery speaks to the {{player}}, he uses various Psychic-type moves in his speeches, such as "Avery, {{m|Teleport}}!"
* Avery and [[Klara]] are the only version-exclusive rivals.

'''Klara''' (Japanese: '''クララ''' ''Kurara'') is the [[rival]] character in [[The Isle of Armor]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword}}. By the events of [[The Crown Tundra]], she becomes a {{type|Poison}} [[Gym Leader]] in the [[Galar]] [[region]].

==In the core series games==
Klara originally started as an underground pop singer with traits of cuteness and the virulence of poison. Despite her attempts at promoting herself, she only sold about eight copies of her debut album. After that, she decided to try out being a [[Gym Leader]] as her new goal to boost her popularity. At some point, she obtained a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowpoke}}. However, she gave up on that goal after two days of harsh training at the {{type|Poison}} [[Gym]]. She eventually learned about the [[Master Dojo]] thanks to a late-night TV show. After she saw how kind [[Mustard]] looked in the commercial, Klara decided to head to the [[Isle of Armor]] to train, believing she can become stronger without trying too hard. She quickly called the Dojo to apply.

She is first encountered by the player at [[Wedgehurst]] Station, obtaining the [[Armor Pass]] needed to visit the Isle of Armor. Before she can get on the train, a Galarian Slowpoke appeared, blocking the way, requiring the player to catch it. After complimenting the player's capture of Galarian Slowpoke, she went on the train to the Isle of Armor. She eventually reached her location and became a student at the Master Dojo. However, she focused more on being doted on by others and barely worked on her training. This resulted in Klara becoming lazy due to a lack of a rival and motivation.

The player meets Klara again once they arrive at the Isle of Armor. She challenges the player to a battle off the bat, assuming they are to be the Master Dojo's new student that she has been assigned to escort. After being defeated, she attempts to scare the player away from enrolling in the Dojo, and even lies to {{gal|Honey}} about the student in question not wanting to show up, only for the player to eventually appear at the Dojo, much to Klara's shock. She threatens the player to not tell of what transpired. During Mustard's trials, her Dojo Uniform gets stolen by Mustard's three fast Slowpoke, which the player retrieves in short order. She battles the player over the next two trials, the former over a set of Max Mushrooms she claims discovered first, and the latter as part of a formal challenge. Klara cheats during the third trial by scattering {{m|Toxic Spikes}} on the player's side of the field before the start of the battle. She is eventually defeated and feels guilty about playing dirty. As punishment, Mustard asks Klara to look after the Dojo Pokémon on her own.

In the post-game, after Mustard has been defeated in a final showdown, Klara can be rematched daily.

In the [[Galarian Star Tournament]], Klara reveals that she has become a minor division Poison Gym Leader. After becoming a Gym Leader, Klara adds a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowking}} to her team, having it replace her {{p|Drapion}} as the lead of her team.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Klara's [[League Card]]s in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword]].

;Normal League Card
:"Klara was originally an underground pop singer. She promoted herself as a star that had both cuteness and the virulence of poison. She energetically held live concerts and other events, even selling some Klara-themed collectables that she made herself, but in spite of everything, she only managed to sell eight copies of her debut album "Krazy for Klara." She decided becoming a Gym Leader would help her gain more popularity and has been working towards that goal since. She chose the Poison type because it matched her image and there was less competition."

;Rare League Card
:"The training at the Poison-type Gym was a lot harsher than Klara was ready for, and she gave up after two days. It was during this time she saw an ad for the Master Dojo during a late-night TV show. The master seemed kind, and Klara thought it would help her become strong without having to try too hard, so she immediately called in to apply. Normally, Klara's sole focus is to be doted on by others, so she puts only the bare minimum into her training, but recently a new student at the dojo has caused a change of attitude. She now works secretly with her Slowbro to better herself."

==In the manga==
[[File:Avery Klara Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Klara in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Klara debuted in ''[[PASS31|Flutter!! Tickets to a New Land]]''. She is a student at the [[Master Dojo]] and studies under [[Mustard]]'s guidance. While training with [[Avery]] at the [[Soothing Wetlands]], Klara came across an unconscious [[Henry Sword]], suffering from the effects of {{p|Eternatus}}'s poison. After letting Henry rest at the dojo, Klara used instructions she received from {{adv|Moon}} and [[Hyde]]'s [[Cram-o-matic]] to create medicine for Henry. At Mustard's request, Klara went to the [[Fields of Honor|Armor Station]] to greet a new student, only to find [[Casey Shield]] and [[Marvin]]. Mistaking the two for new students, Klara challenged Casey to a battle, but was easily defeated.

At the dojo, Casey and Marvin clarified that they weren't new students, much to Klara and Avery's relief. Casey and Marvin reunited with Henry and were tasked with gathering ingredients for an antidote to Eternatus's poison. At Klara's suggestion, Casey and her friends headed to the [[Forest of Focus]] to collect tree sap. Once the sap was successfully obtained, Klara and Avery went to deliver it to a [[Macro Cosmos]] employee.

In [[PASS35]], having been motivated by the sap-collecting excursion, Klara and Avery continued their training and successfully cleared the first trial.

==In the TCG==
[[File:KlaraChillingReign194.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art print of Klara]]
{{main|Klara (Chilling Reign 145)}}
'''Klara''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Peerless Fighters}} subset before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Chilling Reign}} expansion, with artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by [[Naoki Saito]]. A {{TCG|SWSH Black Star Promos|SWSH Black Star Promo}} version of the card with artwork by [[Yuu Nishida]] was included in the {{TCGMerch|Sword & Shield|Series|Klara Premium Tournament Collection}}. It allows the player to put up to two Pokémon or basic Energy cards from the discard pile into their hand or both.

==Trivia==
[[File:Company Icon RKS Laboratories.png|thumb|150px|Icon of RKS Laboratories, Klara's sponsor]]
* The back part of Klara's headband is the same shape as the wings of a {{p|Dustox}}. Her ribbons and bracelets resemble the segments and markings on {{p|Skorupi}} and {{p|Drapion}}. The ends of her ribbons look like Skorupi or Drapion's claws.
* Klara's uniform number is "881", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for やばい ''yabai'', meaning "dangerous".
* Klara’s Slowbro appears warped in her League Card, a reference to selfies that are edited to make a person appear more attractively-proportioned, but are often given away by warped objects in the photo’s background.
** This also aligns with how Klara initially takes shortcuts to popularity, while her rare League card shows her character development as she instead puts work into it.
* Klara and [[Avery]] are the only version-exclusive rivals.

'''Klara''' (Japanese: '''クララ''' ''Kurara'') is the [[rival]] character in [[The Isle of Armor]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword}}. By the events of [[The Crown Tundra]], she becomes a {{type|Poison}} [[Gym Leader]] in the [[Galar]] [[region]].

==In the core series games==
Klara originally started as an underground pop singer with traits of cuteness and the virulence of poison. Despite her attempts at promoting herself, she only sold about eight copies of her debut album. After that, she decided to try out being a [[Gym Leader]] as her new goal to boost her popularity. At some point, she obtained a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowpoke}}. However, she gave up on that goal after two days of harsh training at the {{type|Poison}} [[Gym]]. She eventually learned about the [[Master Dojo]] thanks to a late-night TV show. After she saw how kind [[Mustard]] looked in the commercial, Klara decided to head to the [[Isle of Armor]] to train, believing she can become stronger without trying too hard. She quickly called the Dojo to apply.

She is first encountered by the player at [[Wedgehurst]] Station, obtaining the [[Armor Pass]] needed to visit the Isle of Armor. Before she can get on the train, a Galarian Slowpoke appeared, blocking the way, requiring the player to catch it. After complimenting the player's capture of Galarian Slowpoke, she went on the train to the Isle of Armor. She eventually reached her location and became a student at the Master Dojo. However, she focused more on being doted on by others and barely worked on her training. This resulted in Klara becoming lazy due to a lack of a rival and motivation.

The player meets Klara again once they arrive at the Isle of Armor. She challenges the player to a battle off the bat, assuming they are to be the Master Dojo's new student that she has been assigned to escort. After being defeated, she attempts to scare the player away from enrolling in the Dojo, and even lies to {{gal|Honey}} about the student in question not wanting to show up, only for the player to eventually appear at the Dojo, much to Klara's shock. She threatens the player to not tell of what transpired. During Mustard's trials, her Dojo Uniform gets stolen by Mustard's three fast Slowpoke, which the player retrieves in short order. She battles the player over the next two trials, the former over a set of Max Mushrooms she claims discovered first, and the latter as part of a formal challenge. Klara cheats during the third trial by scattering Toxic Spikes on the player's side of the field before the start of the battle. She is eventually defeated and feels guilty about playing dirty. As punishment, Mustard asks Klara to look after the Dojo Pokémon on her own.

In the post-game, after Mustard has been defeated in a final showdown, Klara can be rematched daily.

In the [[Galarian Star Tournament]], Klara reveals that she has become a minor division Poison Gym Leader. After becoming a Gym Leader, Klara adds a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowking}} to her team, having it replace her {{p|Drapion}} as the lead of her team.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Klara's [[League Card]]s in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword]].

;Normal League Card
:"Klara was originally an underground pop singer. She promoted herself as a star that had both cuteness and the virulence of poison. She energetically held live concerts and other events, even selling some Klara-themed collectables that she made herself, but in spite of everything, she only managed to sell eight copies of her debut album "Krazy for Klara." She decided becoming a Gym Leader would help her gain more popularity and has been working towards that goal since. She chose the Poison type because it matched her image and there was less competition."

;Rare League Card
:"The training at the Poison-type Gym was a lot harsher than Klara was ready for, and she gave up after two days. It was during this time she saw an ad for the Master Dojo during a late-night TV show. The master seemed kind, and Klara thought it would help her become strong without having to try too hard, so she immediately called in to apply. Normally, Klara's sole focus is to be doted on by others, so she puts only the bare minimum into her training, but recently a new student at the dojo has caused a change of attitude. She now works secretly with her Slowbro to better herself."

==In the manga==
[[File:Avery Klara Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Klara in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Klara debuted in ''[[PASS31|Flutter!! Tickets to a New Land]]''. She is a student at the [[Master Dojo]] and studies under [[Mustard]]'s guidance. While training with [[Avery]] at the [[Soothing Wetlands]], Klara came across an unconscious [[Henry Sword]], suffering from the effects of {{p|Eternatus}}'s poison. After letting Henry rest at the dojo, Klara used instructions she received from {{adv|Moon}} and [[Hyde]]'s [[Cram-o-matic]] to create medicine for Henry. At Mustard's request, Klara went to the [[Fields of Honor|Armor Station]] to greet a new student, only to find [[Casey Shield]] and [[Marvin]]. Mistaking the two for new students, Klara challenged Casey to a battle, but was easily defeated.

At the dojo, Casey and Marvin clarified that they weren't new students, much to Klara and Avery's relief. Casey and Marvin reunited with Henry and were tasked with gathering ingredients for an antidote to Eternatus's poison. At Klara's suggestion, Casey and her friends headed to the [[Forest of Focus]] to collect tree sap. Once the sap was successfully obtained, Klara and Avery went to deliver it to a [[Macro Cosmos]] employee.

In [[PASS35]], having been motivated by the sap-collecting excursion, Klara and Avery continued their training and successfully cleared the first trial.

==In the TCG==
[[File:KlaraChillingReign194.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art print of Klara]]
{{main|Klara (Chilling Reign 145)}}
'''Klara''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Peerless Fighters}} subset before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Chilling Reign}} expansion, with artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by [[Naoki Saito]]. A {{TCG|SWSH Black Star Promos|SWSH Black Star Promo}} version of the card with artwork by [[Yuu Nishida]] was included in the {{TCGMerch|Sword & Shield|Series|Klara Premium Tournament Collection}}. It allows the player to put up to two Pokémon or basic Energy cards from the discard pile into their hand or both.

==Trivia==
[[File:Company Icon RKS Laboratories.png|thumb|150px|Icon of RKS Laboratories, Klara's sponsor]]
* The back part of Klara's headband is the same shape as the wings of a {{p|Dustox}}. Her ribbons and bracelets resemble the segments and markings on {{p|Skorupi}} and {{p|Drapion}}. The ends of her ribbons look like Skorupi or Drapion's claws.
* Klara's uniform number is "881", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for やばい ''yabai'', meaning "dangerous".
* Klara’s Slowbro appears warped in her League Card, a reference to selfies that are edited to make a person appear more attractively-proportioned, but are often given away by warped objects in the photo’s background.
** This also aligns with how Klara initially takes shortcuts to popularity, while her rare League card shows her character development as she instead puts work into it.
* Klara and [[Avery]] are the only version-exclusive rivals.

'''Lucius's Arboliva''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のオリーヴァ''' ''Lucius's Oliva'') was an [[Giant Pokémon|oversized]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that after separating from [[Lucius]], somehow ended up in a [[Arboliva Forest|forest]], which it started to protect. Currently, Arboliva is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], it was the second of the Six Heroes that they've encountered on their journey, and the first one to join them on the [[Brave Olivine]].

===In the anime===
====History====
=====With Lucius=====
[[File:Lucius Arboliva Seed Sower.png|left|250px|thumb|Seed Sower activated]]
In ancient times, [[Lucius]] traveled with Arboliva, a member of the Six Heroes, known to "heal wounds". They all worked together as one to reach the promised paradise [[Laqua]].

In a [[HZ012|vision]] from the past caused by Terapagos, Lucius is seen entrusting Arboliva with finding something, but that vision was lost after that, with no further answers being given at that time.

At the end of their adventures, the group reached the paradise, however, at some point after their adventures, Arboliva and the other members of the Six Heroes were scattered across the [[Pokémon world]]. In a [[HZ032|vision]] of the past caused by {{an|Terapagos}}, Lucius is seen giving his Pokémon his goodbyes, but promising they'll meet again someday.

=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point in the past, Arboliva ended up on a [[Arboliva Forest|forest]] in the [[Paldea]] region. It used its [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball]] as a pendant around its neck.

At some point before Liko and Roy met [[Brassius]] in ''[[HZ010|Nemona and Brassius and…]]'', the [[Artazon]] [[Gym Leader]] saw Arboliva in the forest and impacted by that sight, made a sculpture based on Arboliva. At the end of the episode, Arboliva was seen in the shadows walking through the forest.

In ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', the group formed by Liko, Roy, [[Mollie]], and [[Nemona]] went to the forest to investigate and, not knowing what it was about, they used a huge tree as a reference point. As they investigated, Liko and Mollie saw that the damage caused to the forest was enormous, meanwhile Roy arrived at the enormous tree and decided to climb it with {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}}. Liko found a {{p|Wooper}} injured by the destruction caused in the forest and she and Mollie soon discovered that it was not a tree, but a giant Pokémon with another ancient Poké Ball.

Believing it was Liko who injured Wooper, Arboliva attacked her and Roy and a battle ensued. When Wooper and Mollie intervened in the battle, Arboliva calmed down, after which the giant Pokémon took Liko and Roy to show all the destruction that happened in the forest where it lived. In the [[HZ012|following episode]], Liko, Roy and the other members of the Rising Volt Tacklers joined Arboliva in an attempt to recover the forest. With the help of the {{m|Rain Dance}} by [[Ludlow]]'s {{p|Quagsire}} and its [[Ability]], {{a|Seed Sower}}, the forest was saved. Arboliva then used Liko's pendant to show a vision of the {{an|Terapagos|mysterious Pokémon}} that lived in its pendant and a reminder of [[Lucius]] in the past. Soon after, Arboliva returned to its Poké Ball and allowed Liko and Roy to take it under their care.

[[File:Liko and Arboliva.png|250px|thumb|Arboliva and Liko]]
===== With Liko=====
In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Arboliva was summoned from its Poké Ball by Liko's pendant to face off [[Spinel]] and his Pokémon. This made the enemy decide to retreat and so Arboliva returned to [[Brave Olivine]] with Liko, Roy, and [[Dot]].

In ''[[HZ023|Fiery Galarian Moltres]]'', Arboliva emerged from its Poké Ball to defend Liko again against its former {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s {{p|Moltres}}. After a brief but difficult battle, Arboliva joined {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} and [[Captain Pikachu]] to spread his scent in order to calm its former team partner. After Moltres returned its Poké Ball, Arboliva also did the same.

In ''[[HZ032|Lapras's Feelings for its Friends]],'' Arboliva emerged from its Poké Ball alongside Moltres to see Lapras and then witnessed together a vision of the past caused by Terapagos. The vision shows Lucius as he enters Laqua and gives his goodbyes to his Pokémon, promising they'll meet again. After a brief conversation, Arboliva and Moltres return to their Poké Balls.

==== Personality and characteristics====
Generally, Arboliva is a docile and affectionate Pokémon with those it lives with, however when it needs to defend those it cares about, its stance changes completely. This was first shown in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', where Arboliva attacked [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] without hesitation, thinking they had hurt the {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Wooper}}.

It was revealed in [[Alex]]'s books that Arboliva was one of Lucius's Pokemon that was responsible for "dressing wounds". This made it "feel" the destruction caused in the forest where it lived previously and emanate a melancholy and sad sound.

'''Lucius's Moltres''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のファイヤー''' ''Lucius's Fire'') was a [[Legendary Pokémon]] that after separating from [[Lucius]], somehow ended up in the [[Galar Mine]], but completly enraged. Currently, Moltres is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], it was the third of the Six Heroes that they've encountered on their journey, and the second one to join them on the [[Brave Olivine]].

===In the anime===
====History====
===== With Lucius=====
In ancient times, [[Lucius]] traveled with Moltres, a member of the Six Heroes, known to "race through the skies". They all worked together as one to reach the promised paradise [[Laqua]].

In another [[HZ023|vision]] of the past caused by Terapagos, Lucius and Moltres were shown cuddling as the man promises Moltres they'll reach Laqua.

At the end of their adventures, the group reached the paradise, however, at some point after their adventures, Moltres and the other members of the Six Heroes were scattered across the [[Pokémon world]]. In a [[HZ032|vision]] of the past caused by {{an|Terapagos}}, Lucius is seen giving his Pokémon his goodbyes, but promising they'll meet again someday.
=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point, Moltres flew into a [[Galar]] [[Galar Mine|Mine]] in a fit of rage. It had its [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball]] between its talons.

Moltres appeared prior to ''[[HZ022|Charge! Galar Mine!]]'' at the [[Galar Mine]] and it was responsible for draining the energy of several workers there, leaving [[wild Pokémon]] frightened by its presence. When [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Friede]] arrived at the place to investigate, the group ended up separating and with that Liko and Roy were able to see the situation the place was in. After taking care of the workers, Liko and Roy met with Moltres who immediately attacked them, initially draining the energy of those present there. Roy and {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}} managed to free themselves from the power of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] and started a fierce battle with it, but Fuecoco was easily defeated. After seeing Roy's efforts, [[Captain Pikachu]] also entered the battle, but was easily subdued. When Liko managed to free herself, the group decided to flee and they managed to find Friede battling [[Amethio]] and his {{TP|Friede|Charizard}}. As they fled, Moltres ran after the group of young Trainers, but Friede had Charizard attract Moltres' attention, leaving the way clear for Roy and Liko to take care of Captain Pikachu and forcing Moltres to face him and Amethio in the mine.

In the [[HZ023|following episode]], Moltres reappeared and saw Liko's group and decide to battle it again, Moltres was then confronted by Liko, Roy, and Friede again, but this time with the Trainers being successfully able to hold their own in battle with their Pokémon, allowing them to calm it down with {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}'s aromatic leafage with help from Lucius's {{p|Arboliva}}, Moltres eventually calmed down enough to return to its Ancient Poké Ball, allowing itself to be taken care of by Liko and the others.

===== With Liko =====
In ''[[HZ032|Lapras's Feelings for its Friends]],'' Moltres emerged from its Poké Ball alongside Arboliva to see Lapras and then witnessed together a vision of the past caused by Terapagos. The vision shows Lucius as he enters Laqua and gives his goodbyes to his Pokémon, promising they'll meet again. After a brief conversation, Moltres and Arboliva return to their Poké Balls.

====Personality and characteristics====
Galarian Moltres is a stubborn Legendary Pokémon that was full of rage and wouldn't hesitate to unleash its wrath upon those that provoke it, but it has kind-hearted personality towards its Trainer Lucius.

'''Lucius's Lapras''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のラプラス''' ''Lucius's Laplace'') was a [[Giant Pokémon|oversized]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that after separating from [[Lucius]], somehow ended up in an ocean and formed a group of "pirate Pokémon" to live with. Currently, Lapras is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], it was the fourth of the Six Heroes that they've encountered on their journey, and the third one to join them on the [[Brave Olivine]].

=== In the anime ===
==== History====
=====With Lucius=====
In ancient times, [[Lucius]] traveled with Lapras, a member of the Six Heroes, known to "cross seas". They all worked together as one to reach the promised paradise [[Laqua]].

At the end of their adventures, the group reached the paradise, however, at some point after their adventures, Arboliva and the other members of the Six Heroes were scattered across the [[Pokémon world]]. In a [[HZ032|vision]] of the past caused by {{an|Terapagos}}, Lucius is seen giving his Pokémon his goodbyes, but promising they'll meet again someday.
=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point in the past, Lapras appeared in [[Lapras Sea|a sea]] and formed a group of Pokémon and all started living together on a rocky island. The group soon came up with a strategy to get food: Lapras would use [[Mist (move)|Mist]] to get human ships lost and as the Transport Pokémon led the ship to safety, the rest of the group would sneak into the ship and steal all they food they could and they did that same trick for many years. Somehow, it appears Lapras has gained many scars over its shell and skin over the years. Lapras kept its [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball]] safe in its home.

In ''[[HZ031|Song Within the Mist]],'' the Rising Volt Tacklers find Lapras with the help of a local fisherman and his {{p|Floatzel}}, Lapras attempts to trick the group like it usually does, however they catch the fraud and manage to reach it.

In [[HZ032|the next episode]], Lapras attacks the [[Brave Olivine]], freezing it and fleeing. Later on however, the group finds Lapras's hideout following the food boxes they steal from lost ships and with the help of Terapagos, Arboliva, and Moltres, Liko convinces Lapras to join them and help Terapagos reach Laqua and find Lucius again. Soon after, Lapras returned to its Poké Ball and allowed Liko and Roy to take it under their care.

====Personality and characteristics====
Unlike the majority of its species, who are gentle towards [[human]]s and enjoy carrying them on their backs, Lucius's Lapras acts quite hostile towards those it confronts, sneering at them with great anger. It also started helping [[wild Pokémon]] commit several robberies of ships carrying supplies to help its Pokémon friends survive. Even when faced with its friend, {{an|Terapagos}}, Lapras did not back down from its actions, although it visibly hesitated upon seeing Terapagos.

Much like its fellow Six Heroes teammates, Lapras holds great respect and affection for Lucius, as Lapras shed tears upon witnessing a memory of Lucius, and ultimately joined Liko after she promised to help take Lapras, and its friends, to Laqua, the paradise that Lucius once sought to take them to.

During the years of its separation from Lucius, Lapras gathered a huge group of Pokémon by its side. [[Diana]] named this group "The Pirates of Lapras". As soon as Lapras decided to travel with Liko, the Pokémon decided to travel again, being guided by Wailord.

'''Lucius's Arboliva''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のオリーヴァ''' ''Lucius's Oliva'') was an [[Giant Pokémon|oversized]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that after separating from [[Lucius]], somehow ended up in a [[Arboliva Forest|forest]], which it started to protect. Currently, Arboliva is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], it was the second of the Six Heroes that they've encountered on their journey, and the first one to join them on the [[Brave Olivine]].

===In the anime===
====History====
=====With Lucius=====
[[File:Lucius Arboliva Seed Sower.png|left|250px|thumb|Seed Sower activated]]
In ancient times, [[Lucius]] traveled with Arboliva, a member of the Six Heroes, known to "heal wounds". They all worked together as one to reach the promised paradise [[Laqua]].

In a [[HZ012|vision]] from the past caused by Terapagos, Lucius is seen entrusting Arboliva with finding something, but that vision was lost after that, with no further answers being given at that time.

At the end of their adventures, the group reached the paradise, however, at some point after their adventures, Arboliva and the other members of the Six Heroes were scattered across the [[Pokémon world]]. In a [[HZ032|vision]] of the past caused by {{an|Terapagos}}, Lucius is seen giving his Pokémon his goodbyes, but promising they'll meet again someday.

=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point in the past, Arboliva ended up on a [[Arboliva Forest|forest]] in the [[Paldea]] region. It used its [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball]] as a pendant around its neck.

At some point before Liko and Roy met [[Brassius]] in ''[[HZ010|Nemona and Brassius and…]]'', the [[Artazon]] [[Gym Leader]] saw Arboliva in the forest and impacted by that sight, made a sculpture based on Arboliva. At the end of the episode, Arboliva was seen in the shadows walking through the forest.

In ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', the group formed by Liko, Roy, [[Mollie]], and [[Nemona]] went to the forest to investigate and, not knowing what it was about, they used a huge tree as a reference point. As they investigated, Liko and Mollie saw that the damage caused to the forest was enormous, meanwhile Roy arrived at the enormous tree and decided to climb it with {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}}. Liko found a {{p|Wooper}} injured by the destruction caused in the forest and she and Mollie soon discovered that it was not a tree, but a giant Pokémon with another ancient Poké Ball.

Believing it was Liko who injured Wooper, Arboliva attacked her and Roy and a battle ensued. When Wooper and Mollie intervened in the battle, Arboliva calmed down, after which the giant Pokémon took Liko and Roy to show all the destruction that happened in the forest where it lived. In the [[HZ012|following episode]], Liko, Roy and the other members of the Rising Volt Tacklers joined Arboliva in an attempt to recover the forest. With the help of the {{m|Rain Dance}} by [[Ludlow]]'s {{p|Quagsire}} and its [[Ability]], {{a|Seed Sower}}, the forest was saved. Arboliva then used Liko's pendant to show a vision of the {{an|Terapagos|mysterious Pokémon}} that lived in its pendant and a reminder of [[Lucius]] in the past. Soon after, Arboliva returned to its Poké Ball and allowed Liko and Roy to take it under their care.

[[File:Liko and Arboliva.png|250px|thumb|Arboliva and Liko]]
===== With Liko=====
In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Arboliva was summoned from its Poké Ball by Liko's pendant to face off [[Spinel]] and his Pokémon. This made the enemy decide to retreat and so Arboliva returned to [[Brave Olivine]] with Liko, Roy, and [[Dot]].

In ''[[HZ023|Fiery Galarian Moltres]]'', Arboliva emerged from its Poké Ball to defend Liko again against its former {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s {{p|Moltres}}. After a brief but difficult battle, Arboliva joined {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} and [[Captain Pikachu]] to spread his scent in order to calm its former team partner. After Moltres returned its Poké Ball, Arboliva also did the same.

In ''[[HZ032|Lapras's Feelings for its Friends]],'' Arboliva emerged from its Poké Ball alongside Moltres to see Lapras and then witnessed together a vision of the past caused by Terapagos. The vision shows Lucius as he enters Laqua and gives his goodbyes to his Pokémon, promising they'll meet again. After a brief conversation, Arboliva and Moltres return to their Poké Balls.

==== Personality and characteristics====
Generally, Arboliva is a docile and affectionate Pokémon with those it lives with, however when it needs to defend those it cares about, its stance changes completely. This was first shown in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', where Arboliva attacked [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] without hesitation, thinking they had hurt the {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Wooper}}.

It was revealed in [[Alex]]'s books that Arboliva was one of Lucius's Pokemon that was responsible for "dressing wounds". This made it "feel" the destruction caused in the forest where it lived previously and emanate a melancholy and sad sound.

'''Lucius's Moltres''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のファイヤー''' ''Lucius's Fire'') was a [[Legendary Pokémon]] that after separating from [[Lucius]], somehow ended up in the [[Galar Mine]], but completly enraged. Currently, Moltres is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], it was the third of the Six Heroes that they've encountered on their journey, and the second one to join them on the [[Brave Olivine]].

===In the anime===
====History====
===== With Lucius=====
In ancient times, [[Lucius]] traveled with Moltres, a member of the Six Heroes, known to "race through the skies". They all worked together as one to reach the promised paradise [[Laqua]].

In another [[HZ023|vision]] of the past caused by Terapagos, Lucius and Moltres were shown cuddling as the man promises Moltres they'll reach Laqua.

At the end of their adventures, the group reached the paradise, however, at some point after their adventures, Moltres and the other members of the Six Heroes were scattered across the [[Pokémon world]]. In a [[HZ032|vision]] of the past caused by {{an|Terapagos}}, Lucius is seen giving his Pokémon his goodbyes, but promising they'll meet again someday.
=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point, Moltres flew into a [[Galar]] [[Galar Mine|Mine]] in a fit of rage. It had its [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball]] between its talons.

Moltres appeared prior to ''[[HZ022|Charge! Galar Mine!]]'' at the [[Galar Mine]] and it was responsible for draining the energy of several workers there, leaving [[wild Pokémon]] frightened by its presence. When [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Friede]] arrived at the place to investigate, the group ended up separating and with that Liko and Roy were able to see the situation the place was in. After taking care of the workers, Liko and Roy met with Moltres who immediately attacked them, initially draining the energy of those present there. Roy and {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}} managed to free themselves from the power of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] and started a fierce battle with it, but Fuecoco was easily defeated. After seeing Roy's efforts, [[Captain Pikachu]] also entered the battle, but was easily subdued. When Liko managed to free herself, the group decided to flee and they managed to find Friede battling [[Amethio]] and his {{TP|Friede|Charizard}}. As they fled, Moltres ran after the group of young Trainers, but Friede had Charizard attract Moltres' attention, leaving the way clear for Roy and Liko to take care of Captain Pikachu and forcing Moltres to face him and Amethio in the mine.

In the [[HZ023|following episode]], Moltres reappeared and saw Liko's group and decide to battle it again, Moltres was then confronted by Liko, Roy, and Friede again, but this time with the Trainers being successfully able to hold their own in battle with their Pokémon, allowing them to calm it down with {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}'s aromatic leafage with help from Lucius's {{p|Arboliva}}, Moltres eventually calmed down enough to return to its Ancient Poké Ball, allowing itself to be taken care of by Liko and the others.

===== With Liko =====
In ''[[HZ032|Lapras's Feelings for its Friends]],'' Moltres emerged from its Poké Ball alongside Arboliva to see Lapras and then witnessed together a vision of the past caused by Terapagos. The vision shows Lucius as he enters Laqua and gives his goodbyes to his Pokémon, promising they'll meet again. After a brief conversation, Moltres and Arboliva return to their Poké Balls.

====Personality and characteristics====
Galarian Moltres is a stubborn Legendary Pokémon that was full of rage and wouldn't hesitate to unleash its wrath upon those that provoke it, but it has kind-hearted personality towards its Trainer Lucius.

'''Lucius's Lapras''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のラプラス''' ''Lucius's Laplace'') was a [[Giant Pokémon|oversized]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that after separating from [[Lucius]], somehow ended up in an ocean and formed a group of "pirate Pokémon" to live with. Currently, Lapras is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], it was the fourth of the Six Heroes that they've encountered on their journey, and the third one to join them on the [[Brave Olivine]].

=== In the anime ===
==== History====
=====With Lucius=====
In ancient times, [[Lucius]] traveled with Lapras, a member of the Six Heroes, known to "cross seas". They all worked together as one to reach the promised paradise [[Laqua]].

At the end of their adventures, the group reached the paradise, however, at some point after their adventures, Arboliva and the other members of the Six Heroes were scattered across the [[Pokémon world]]. In a [[HZ032|vision]] of the past caused by {{an|Terapagos}}, Lucius is seen giving his Pokémon his goodbyes, but promising they'll meet again someday.
=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point in the past, Lapras appeared in [[Lapras Sea|a sea]] and formed a group of Pokémon and all started living together on a rocky island. The group soon came up with a strategy to get food: Lapras would use [[Mist (move)|Mist]] to get human ships lost and as the Transport Pokémon led the ship to safety, the rest of the group would sneak into the ship and steal all they food they could and they did that same trick for many years. Somehow, it appears Lapras has gained many scars over its shell and skin over the years. Lapras kept its [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball]] safe in its home.

In ''[[HZ031|Song Within the Mist]],'' the Rising Volt Tacklers find Lapras with the help of a local fisherman and his {{p|Floatzel}}, Lapras attempts to trick the group like it usually does, however they catch the fraud and manage to reach it.

In [[HZ032|the next episode]], Lapras attacks the [[Brave Olivine]], freezing it and fleeing. Later on however, the group finds Lapras's hideout following the food boxes they steal from lost ships and with the help of Terapagos, Arboliva, and Moltres, Liko convinces Lapras to join them and help Terapagos reach Laqua and find Lucius again. Soon after, Lapras returned to its Poké Ball and allowed Liko and Roy to take it under their care.

====Personality and characteristics====
Unlike the majority of its species, who are gentle towards [[human]]s and enjoy carrying them on their backs, Lucius's Lapras acts quite hostile towards those it confronts, sneering at them with great anger. It also started helping [[wild Pokémon]] commit several robberies of ships carrying supplies to help its Pokémon friends survive. Even when faced with its friend, {{an|Terapagos}}, Lapras did not back down from its actions, although it visibly hesitated upon seeing Terapagos.

Much like its fellow Six Heroes teammates, Lapras holds great respect and affection for Lucius, as Lapras shed tears upon witnessing a memory of Lucius, and ultimately joined Liko after she promised to help take Lapras, and its friends, to Laqua, the paradise that Lucius once sought to take them to.

During the years of its separation from Lucius, Lapras gathered a huge group of Pokémon by its side. [[Diana]] named this group "The Pirates of Lapras". As soon as Lapras decided to travel with Liko, the Pokémon decided to travel again, being guided by Wailord.

A '''{{wp|doppelgänger}}''' is a double or lookalike of another person. Various characters in the {{pkmn|anime}} are doppelgängers of main characters.

==Arnold==
[[File:Arnold.png|thumb|250px|Arnold and his mother]]

{{main|Arnold}}
Arnold is a doppelgänger of {{Ash}} who appeared in ''[[EP027|Hypno's Naptime]]''. As he disappeared three days before the events of the episode, [[Arnold's mother|his mother]] initially mistook Ash to be her son and embraced him in a hug before realizing her mistake.

==Jessebelle==
[[File:Jessebelle.png|thumb|250px|Jessebelle]]
{{main|Jessebelle}}
Jessebelle is a doppelgänger of [[Jessie]], who appeared in ''[[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]]'' and ''[[DP153|The Treasure Is All Mine!]]''. She was [[James]]'s {{wp|fiancé (disambiguation)|fiancé}}; however, when James was exposed to her less than agreeable personality, he ran away from home in order to escape her attentions. She has returned several times with the cooperation of [[James's parents]] to try to make him see the error of his ways and marry her.
{{-}}

==Travis==
[[File:Travis.png|thumb|250px|Travis and his Pikachu]]
{{main|Travis}}
Travis is another doppelgänger of {{Ash}}, who appeared in flashback in ''[[EP108|Pokémon Double Trouble]]''. As with Arnold, Ash's first encounter with [[Luana|his mother]] was an unexpected hug due to mistaken identity. However, in this case, Travis had simply left on a Pokémon journey and the fact that both were traveling with a {{p|Pikachu}} had helped cause the misunderstanding.

==Mansion owner==
[[File:Mansion owner EP232.png|thumb|250px|The mansion owner]]
The mansion owner is a minor character who was only shown in the episode ''[[EP232|Just Waiting on a Friend!]]'' in a portrait and flashback. He is the owner of the Ninetales that lived in the mansion, and he also bears a very close resemblance to Brock, which Ninetales used to her gain so he would stay with it in the mansion, even making an illusion of putting his own outfit on Brock. The mansion owner left on a journey two centuries ago, but never came back, leaving Ninetales all alone after the servants left. He also wrote an entry in his diary which Ash and Misty discovered.

==Team Righteous==
[[File:Team Righteous.png|thumb|250px|Team Righteous]]
{{main|Team Righteous}}
Team Righteous are doppelgängers of [[Jessie]] and [[James]] who appeared in a video in ''[[HS03|We're No Angels!]]''. Unlike other doppelgängers, they are fictional characters who had a television show a long time ago. They even had their own {{p|Meowth}} who was just a person in a costume. Unlike {{TRT}}, they fight for good instead of evil.

==Max==
[[File:Max AG049.png|thumb|250px|Max]]
{{main|Max (AG049)|Max}}
Max is a doppelgänger of [[Max]], who appeared in ''[[AG049|Maxxed Out!]]''. The doppelgänger Max had a more central role in this episode than both of Ash's look-a-likes and got in a fight with his same-named lookalike as they both felt jealous thinking that the other was already a Trainer. Later on, the two discovered that they have more similarities than their name and appearance and became friends.

==Harley's classmate==
[[File:The girl resembling May.png|thumb|250px|The girl resembling May]]
According to [[Harley]] in ''[[AG174|New Plot, Odd Lot!]]'', he had a classmate as a child, who looked similar to {{an|May}}. She took his lunch from him, and he explained to {{TRT}} that she was the reason he hated May so much. It has been debated whether the girl existed or was just made up by Harley to get Team Rocket on his side. There was no mention of her when Harley [[AG103|first met May]] and she would contradict the original reason of Harley's grudge.

==Princess Salvia==
[[File:Salvia.png|thumb|250px|Princess Salvia]]
{{main|Princess Salvia}}
Princess Salvia is a doppelgänger of {{an|Dawn}}, appearing in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]''. She swapped places with Dawn in a plotline reminiscent of ''{{wp|The Prince and the Pauper}}'', taking part in the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]] with her {{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}} while Dawn pretended to be a member of the high class. This worked until Dawn discovered that Princess Salvia was expected to watch the final match of the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] and ended up shouting encouragement to her lookalike. Princess Salvia later gave Togekiss to Dawn so it could continue taking part in Pokémon Contests.

==Kiawe's friend==
[[File:Ash lookalike SM022.png|thumb|250px|The boy resembling Ash Ketchum]]
According to {{an|Kiawe}} in ''[[SM022|A Shivering Shovel Search!]]'', he had a friend who resembles {{Ash}}. Both of them and their other friends mistook a {{p|Sandygast}} for a shovel.
{{-}}

==Ultra Ruin student==
[[File:Ultra Ruin past Litten.png|thumb|250px|The boy resembling Ash Ketchum]]
In a flashback of {{al|Dia}}'s home world in ''[[SM100|Battling the Beast Within!]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}} resembling {{Ash}} was revealed to once be a resident of what is now the [[Ultra Ruin]]. Elements of {{ga|Red}}, Ash's {{pkmn|games|game}} counterpart, are also included in this Trainer's design. {{-}}

==Soleil==
[[File:Soleil.png|thumb|250px|Soleil]]
{{main|Soleil}}
Soleil is a girl from [[Johto]] and a doppelgänger of [[Chloe]], appearing in ''[[JN079|Night and Day, You are the Ones!]]''. She was to be declared the liege of the [[Eclipse Castle]], but when she and Chloe switched around their clothes to fool around with their friends, [[Ilunas]] mistook Chloe for her doppelgänger and kidnapped her. After realizing his mistake, he tried to force Soleil to make him the new liege instead. After Ash and [[Goh]] had found and freed Chloe, she and {{TP|Chloe|Eevee}} joined Soleil and her {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} in battling against Ilunas, eventually defeating him. After Soleil had taken on the liegeship of the castle, she made Ilunas her helper.

{{main|Rai}}
{{main|Bocco}}

Luka, Rai, and Bocco are doppelgangers of [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Dot]], appearing in [[HZ053]]. Much like Liko's group, this trio enrolled at [[Naranja Academy]] to partake in the [[Terastal Training]] course. The two trios briefly encountered each other in a forest after Luka unwittingly incurred the wrath of an [[Annihilape]] by repairing her broken bag strap with a vine the local [[Mankey]] and [[Primeape]] used to access their food horde across a river. Due to their similar appearances and Pokémon, Annihilape's pack mistook Liko's group for Luka's, forcing them to correct this trio's mistake.

'''Toedscool''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ノノクラゲ''' ''Nonokurage'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Toedscruel}} starting at [[level]] 30.

It is [[Ecologically similar Pokémon|ecologically similar]] to {{p|Tentacool}}; however, the two are separate species.

==Biology==
Toedscool is a Pokémon that is similar to a mushroom. It has a bulbous pink body with a yellow dot just above its eyes, and two larger yellow circles located further above on either side of its head. Toedscool has small pupils on its eyes and its lower body flares out into frayed flaps. These flaps sometimes fall off from its body, and have a chewy and delicious taste; as such, they are used in recipes such as pickles.

Toedscool has two long, thin, white legs resembling tentacles or {{wp|mycelium}}, which it uses to run at a speed of 30 mph (50 km/h). Toedscool lives in humid forests, where it clings to tree roots. Although Toedscool physically resembles {{p|Tentacool}}, the two species are biologically unrelated.

Toedscool and its evolution, {{p|Toedscruel}}, are the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Mycelium Might}} as an [[Ability]].

===Evolution===
Toedscool evolves into {{p|Toedscruel}}.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

===Major appearances===
Multiple Toedscool made their debut in [[HZ051]].

===Minor appearances===
{{-}}

==In the manga==
==In the TCG==
{{main|Toedscool (TCG)}}

==Trivia==
* Toedscool is tied with {{p|Baltoy}} for the lowest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon.
* Toedscool, {{p|Tentacool}}, and their respective evolutionary lines have exactly the same base stats in the same distribution. They also have the same levels for evolution.
* In the game code of Scarlet and Violet, Toedscool and {{p|Toedscruel}} are referred to as "OKAKINGU" and "OKAGYARADOSU" respectively, suggesting they replaced a scrapped idea of an evolution line based on the {{p|Magikarp}} line.

===Origin===
Toedscool appears to be based on {{wp|mushroom}}s — specifically a {{wp|wood ear}} mushroom, known as {{j|木耳 / キクラゲ}} ''kikurage'' (literally "tree jellyfish") in Japan, hence its similarities to the jellyfish-based {{p|Tentacool}}. The fact that it physically resembles Tentacool may also be a reference to {{wp|convergent evolution}} or {{wp|parallel evolution}}, which can lead to separate organisms independently developing similar or identical characteristics and body plans. The way it uses its tentacles as legs may be a visual pun on how the mushroom's stalk is called ''pie'' (foot) in Spanish.

====Name origin====
Toedscool may be a combination of ''toadstool'' (another name for mushroom), ''toed'' (having toes), and ''{{p|Tentacool}}''.

Nonokurage may be a combination of 野 ''no'' (field), 木耳 ''kikurage'' ({{wp|Auricularia auricula-judae|jelly ear}}), and メノクラゲ ''Menokurage'' (Tentacool).

==Places of interest==
===Pewter Museum of Science===
{{main|Pewter Museum of Science}}
[[File:Pewter Museum of Science HGSS.png|thumb|left|200px|The museum in HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
One of Pewter City's main attractions is the famous museum located in the northwestern part of the city. The main building is open to the public for {{PDollar}}50 and features several scientific artifacts.

There are two floors to explore in the Pewter Museum of Science. The first floor holds the front desk and a [[fossil]] exhibit containing the fossils of {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}}. The second floor hosts a space exhibit, featuring a space shuttle and a large [[Moon Stone]] that fell from space and landed on [[Mt. Moon]]. The {{player}} is able to explore the museum at any time, after paying the admission fee.

Once the ability to use {{m|Cut}} out of battle is gained,{{sup/1}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} or after the player's {{ga|Partner Pokémon}} is taught the [[Secret Technique]] Chop Down,{{sup/7|PE}} the player can sneak into the back of the museum and acquire the [[Old Amber]] from a scientist there, allowing the player to revive an Aerodactyl later in the game. In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there is also a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach {{m|Seismic Toss}} to one of the player's compatible Pokémon.

The museum is closed for renovations during [[Generation II]]. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, however, the museum is open for business. There is a scientist in the museum who will revive a player's Fossils, much like the scientist at [[Cinnabar Island]]'s [[Cinnabar Lab]] in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}}, {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}. This is due to the fact that Fossils can be found under rocks using {{m|Rock Smash}}, unlike in Generation II, where players were required to transfer Fossil {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from the [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}} using the [[Time Capsule]].

===Pewter Gym===
[[File:Pewter Gym HGSS.png|thumb|200px|Pewter Gym in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}]]
{{main|Pewter Gym}}
The Pewter Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Pewter City. It is based on {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Brock]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s that defeat him receive the {{Badge|Boulder}}.

Other known members include {{tc|Camper}} Jerry, Camper Liam, Brock's father, {{ka|Flint}}, and Brock's mother, [[Lola]].

Pewter Gym appears in all {{pkmn|games}} set in the [[Kanto]] region, appearing much the same in each: a small building with a {{wp|Japanese rock garden}} inside, one Trainer, and the Gym Leader Brock waiting on a large stone pedestal. In the [[Generation I]] games and their [[Generation III]] remakes, whenever the {{player}} tries to leave Pewter City, a boy will lead them to the front of the Gym if the player has not earned their Boulder Badge yet.

==Signs==
* In the [[Generation I]] games and their [[remake]]s, there's a notice about [[Team Rocket|thieves]] that have been stealing Pokémon [[fossil]]s from [[Mt. Moon]] and to contact Pewter Police with any information to assist them in stopping the troublemakers.
* In the [[Generation II]] games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there's a sign that welcomes the player to the city. Also in [[Generation II]], there's a notice about the Gift Shop at the [[Mt. Moon Square]] being now open.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow===
In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the population of Pewter City is 28.

===Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal===
In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the population of Pewter City is 18. This decrease is due in part to the closing of the Pewter Museum of Science.

===Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen===
In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the population of Pewter City is 33.

===Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver===
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the population is 30. Its decline in population could be due to the Pewter Museum of Science's missing second floor, which was present in FireRed and LeafGreen.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Pewter City anime.png|thumb|250px|Pewter City in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Pewter City first appeared in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', where {{Ash}} decided to challenge the [[Pewter Gym]] for his first [[Badge]]. After suffering his first loss to {{an|Brock}}, {{ka|Flint}} caught up with Ash and directed him to an old hydroelectric plant located by a dry river bed, where he could charge {{AP|Pikachu}} up with electricity. After charging Pikachu up, Ash returned to the Gym, where Pikachu accidentally set off its sprinkler system, allowing it to win the [[rematch]] against {{TP|Brock|Onix}}. Despite this, Ash decided to forfeit the match, feeling like he did not deserve to win. Nevertheless, Brock still chose to give him a {{badge|Boulder}}. The Gym was subsequently left under Flint's care while Brock decided to join Ash on his travels.

In ''[[HS01|A Family That Battles Together Stays Together!]]'', it was revealed that Brock's mother [[Lola]] had recently returned home and added a brighter color scheme to the Gym, while also changing it to a {{type|Water}} Gym. The Gym returned to its heritage {{type|Rock}} theme after Brock defeated his mother in battle. In [[DPS02]], [[Forrest]] officially became the new Pewter City [[Gym Leader]] after a [[Nurse Joy]] from the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency]] recognized him as a worthy {{pkmn|Trainer}} for the duty.

The city reappeared in ''[[JN038|Restore and Renew!]]'', when Ash, [[Goh]], and [[Chloe]] visited the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. While enjoying the [[Fossil]] Pokémon on show, Goh uncovered an [[Old Amber]] and later had it restored, {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} the newly revived {{TP|Goh|Aerodactyl}}.

Pewter City's center features many tall buildings, including a [[Pokémon Center]], which differs from its craggy surroundings. A [[Contest Hall]] is located on the outskirts of the city. Pewter City also serves as one of the locations of the [[Battle Pyramid]]. In the Japanese version of [[EP006]], [[Seymour]] was revealed to work for the Pewter Museum of Science. In addition to Brock, Pewter City is also the [[hometown]] of [[Top Coordinator]] [[Solidad]] and Trainer [[Pete Pebbleman]], who was defeated by Ash during the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]].

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Route 2 PO.png|thumb|250px|Pewter City in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Pewter City made an appearance in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]''. While visiting the Museum of Science, {{OBP|Red|Origins}} overheard two girls talking about [[Brock]], the local [[Gym Leader]]. When he went to the Gym, he found out that Brock was the same man whom he had encountered earlier, just after losing a battle against {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}.

Red then started a Gym battle with Brock, during which the Rock-type Gym Leader gave the beginner Trainer basic advices of strategy, such as those involving {{DL|Type|type effectiveness}}. During the battle, Red came to realize that he and his Pokémon were in the battle together, making them his partners. Eventually, Red was able to defeat Brock, earning the {{badge|Boulder}} and {{TM|34|Bide}}. Afterwards, the young Trainer departed Pewter City, doubly determined to fulfill his quest of completing the [[Pokédex]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Pewter City Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Pewter City in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
Pewter City first appeared ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]''. After arriving there, {{adv|Red}} learned that the townspeople were trying to catch a [[Pika]]chu, which had been stealing food from the local marketplace. Using his [[Saur|Bulbasaur]]'s {{m|Sleep Powder}}, Red put Pikachu {{status|asleep}} and {{pkmn2|caught}} him without issue. Pikachu did, however, remain [[Obedience|disobedient]] towards him, something that Red's [[rival]], {{adv|Blue}}, mocked him for. He also told Red that he was intending on battling the local [[Gym Leader]], [[Brock]], in order to earn the {{badge|Boulder}} and make his Pokémon stronger, and challenged Red to do the same. However, the local [[Pokémon Center]] had been attacked the previous night, leaving Red's only good choices against {{t|Rock}} Pokémon, Bulbasaur and [[Poli]]whirl, low on [[HP]].

In ''[[PS005|Onix Is On!]]'', Red entered the [[Pewter Gym]] just in time to witness Blue winning himself a Boulder Badge. Red used Bulbasaur and Poliwhirl to face and defeat the [[Gym]] {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, but by the time the battle against Brock came, both of them were too exhausted to continue, forcing Red to use his disobedient Pikachu against [[Brock's Onix]]. Despite the obedience issues and type disadvantage, Pikachu eventually defeated Onix by breaking its body apart, earning Red his own Boulder Badge.

Red briefly revisited Pewter City in ''[[PS023|Make Way For Magmar!]]'' with {{adv|Giovanni}}, whom he had met in [[Diglett's Cave]] and assumed to be just a [[fossil]] collector. Upon arriving in the city, they noticed that the [[Pewter Museum of Science]] had been set on fire by two {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Magmar}}. Red decided to use his recently caught {{p|Sandshrew}} against them, eventually succeeding in immobilizing them with sand. Giovanni gave Red an [[Old Amber]] before parting ways with him, and when the Magmar started moving again, Giovanni had his {{p|Cloyster}} {{status|freeze}} and kill them, revealing his association with [[Team Rocket]] in the process.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
Starting from ''[[PS065|Karate Machop!]]'', a group of {{p|Machop}} sent by [[Bruno]] attacked Pewter City as part of the [[Elite Four]]'s attack on the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. While Brock fought against them to defend his hometown, he discovered that the Elite Four was after his Badge. Once {{adv|Yellow}} defeated [[Lance]] on [[Cerise Island]], the Pokémon armies attacking Kanto lost their strength and collapsed.

[[File:Pewter City PM.png|thumb|left|200px|Pewter City in [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]]]
===Pokémon Pocket Monsters===
Pewter City appeared in ''[[PM003|Bring Down the Powerful Opponent Onix!!]]''. After seeing {{PPM|Green}} getting tossed out of the local Gym, {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} became afraid of fighting against Brock's Onix and tried to flee, forcing {{PPM|Red}} to drag him back inside. Once Clefairy found out that his cousin, {{TP|Red|Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}}, was a part of Brock's Pokémon collection, he was infuriated and finally became motivated to battle. Onix was eventually defeated by Clefairy's gag moves, making Red the winner and allowing him to take Pikachu with him.

===Pokémon Zensho===
Pewter City appeared in ''[[PS05|Pewter City]]'', where {{zensho|Satoshi}} challenged Brock at the Pewter Gym. Despite Brock's Onix having an advantage over {{zensho|Satoshi's Charmander}}, Satoshi eventually won by having Charmander chop off Onix's horn, earning him the Boulder Badge.

==Trivia==
* [[Goldenrod City]] and [[Rustboro City]] are very similar to Pewter City. Their geographic locations in their respective [[region]]s are remarkably similar, as well as being only accessible through a forest early in the game. Rustboro is, however, the most like Pewter in that both cities are the second city visited with a [[Gym]], but first to be beat by the {{player}}. Both Pewter and Rustboro's Gyms specialize in {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and play a role in the player obtaining [[Fossil]] Pokémon.
** [[Oreburgh City]] is also very similar to Pewter City, as they are both surrounded by mountains, both of their [[Gym]]s specialize in {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and they both contain a museum. [[Nacrene City]] is also similar, as it is near a forest and has a museum; however, unlike Pewter City, [[Goldenrod City]] and Rustboro City, Nacrene City comes ''before'' a forest, not ''after''.
* If the player enters "''[[Mystery Gift#Generation III|Mystery Event Is Exciting]]''" to the girl asking for the player's profile in the [[Pokémon Center]], she will mention that her cousin used to say that a lot, referring to the man in the Pokémon Center of [[Petalburg City]] who asks for the player's profile in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.
* In {{game|Yellow}}, if the player tries to deposit the {{OBP|Pikachu|Yellow}} received at the beginning of the game in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] or view its stats while it is asleep from {{p|Jigglypuff}}'s song, the game will not allow this, yielding the message "There isn't any response..." (Japanese: あれ？　いない⋯ ''Eh? There's no one...'')
** In Pokémon Yellow, if Pikachu is asleep because of {{p|Jigglypuff}}'s song, the player will be unable to use the [[Link Cable]] features. In this case, the Link Cable attendant simply says her original preparation message: "Welcome to the Cable Club! We're making preparations. Please wait."
** In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, when the player accesses the [[Help System]], Jigglypuff's song stops.
* In the English [[dub]] of the {{pkmn|anime}}, [[Roxanne]] says that the Pewter City Gym is the flagship of all the Rock-type Gyms.
* In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the NPC with a {{p|Butterfree}} mentions that her Butterfree is female, but it lacks the {{DL|List of Pokémon with gender differences|Generation I|black spots on its lower wings}}.

'''Lucius's Arboliva''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のオリーヴァ''' ''Lucius's Oliva'') was a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that in the past belonged to [[Lucius]]. Currently, Arboliva is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Arboliva was the second of six Pokémon belonging to the Ancient Adventurer that [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] encountered on their journey and the first to join the young members of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

===In the anime===
====History====
=====With Lucius=====
[[File:Lucius Arboliva Seed Sower.png|left|250px|thumb|Seed Sower activated]]
According to legends, {{p|Arboliva}} was a Pokémon that [[Lucius]] met during his travels. Together with five other Pokémon, they explored the world in search of a [[Laqua|lost paradise]]. Some time later, Lucius found this paradise and together they lived there.

In a [[HZ012|flashback]] to the past, Lucius entrusted Arboliva with finding something, but that vision was lost after that, with no further answers being given at that time.

At some point in the past, Arboliva's Poké Ball appeared on a [[Arboliva Forest|forest]] in the [[Paldea]] region.

=====As a wild Pokémon=====
At some point before Liko and Roy met [[Brassius]] in ''[[HZ010|Nemona and Brassius and…]]'', the [[Artazon]] [[Gym Leader]] saw Arboliva in the forest and impacted by that sight, made a sculpture based on Arboliva. At the end of the episode, Arboliva was seen in the shadows walking through the forest.

In ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', the group formed by Liko, Roy, [[Mollie]], and [[Nemona]] went to the forest to investigate and, not knowing what it was about, they used a huge tree as a reference point. As they investigated, Liko and Mollie saw that the damage caused to the forest was enormous, meanwhile Roy arrived at the enormous tree and decided to climb it with {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}}. Liko found a {{p|Wooper}} injured by the destruction caused in the forest and she and Mollie soon discovered that it was not a tree, but a giant Pokémon with another ancient Poké Ball.

Believing it was Liko who injured Wooper, Arboliva attacked her and Roy and a battle ensued. When Wooper and Mollie intervened in the battle, Arboliva calmed down, after which the giant Pokémon took Liko and Roy to show all the destruction that happened in the forest where it lived.

In the [[HZ012|following episode]], Liko, Roy and the other members of the Rising Volt Tacklers joined Arboliva in an attempt to recover the forest. With the help of the {{m|Rain Dance}} by [[Ludlow]]'s {{p|Quagsire}} and its [[Ability]], {{a|Seed Sower}}, the forest was saved. Arboliva then used Liko's pendant to show a vision of the {{an|Terapagos|mysterious Pokémon}} that lived in its pendant and a reminder of [[Lucius]] in the past. Soon after, Arboliva returned to its Poké Ball and allowed Liko and Roy to take it under their care.

[[File:Liko and Arboliva.png|250px|thumb|Arboliva and Liko]]
=====With Liko=====
In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Arboliva was summoned from its Poké Ball by Liko's pendant to face off [[Spinel]] and his Pokémon. This made the enemy decide to retreat and so Arboliva returned to [[Brave Olivine]] with Liko, Roy, and [[Dot]].

In ''[[HZ023|Fiery Galarian Moltres]]'', Arboliva emerged from its Poké Ball to defend Liko again against its former {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s {{p|Moltres}}. After a brief but difficult battle, Arboliva joined {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} and [[Captain Pikachu]] to spread his scent in order to calm its former team partner. After Moltres returned its Poké Ball, Arboliva also did the same.

====Personality and characteristics====
Generally, Arboliva is a docile and affectionate Pokémon with those it lives with, however when it needs to defend those it cares about, its stance changes completely. This was first shown in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', where Arboliva attacked [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] without hesitation, thinking they had hurt the {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Wooper}}.

It was revealed in [[Alex]]'s books that Arboliva was one of Lucius's Pokemon that was responsible for "dressing wounds". This made it "feel" the destruction caused in the forest where it lived previously and emanate a melancholy and sad sound.

'''Lucius's Moltres''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のファイヤー''' ''Lucius's Fire'') was a Pokémon that in the past belonged to [[Lucius]]. Currently, Moltres is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Moltres was the third of six Pokémon belonging to the Ancient Adventurer that [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] encountered on their journey and the second to join the young members of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

====History====
=====With Lucius=====
According to legends, {{p|Moltres}} was a Pokémon that [[Lucius]] met during his travels, together with five other Pokémon, they explored the world in search of a [[Laqua|lost paradise]]. Some time later, Lucius found this paradise and together they lived there.

=====As a wild Pokémon=====
Moltres appeared prior to ''[[HZ022|Charge! Galar Mine!]]'' at the [[Galar Mine]] and it was responsible for draining the energy of several workers there, leaving [[wild Pokémon]] frightened by his presence.

When [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Friede]] arrived at the place to investigate, the group ended up separating and with that Liko and Roy were able to see the situation the place was in. After taking care of the workers, Liko and Roy met with Moltres who immediately attacked them, initially draining the energy of those present there. Roy and {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}} managed to free themselves from the power of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] and started a fierce battle with it, but Fuecoco was easily defeated. After seeing Roy's efforts, [[Captain Pikachu]] also entered the battle, but was easily subdued. When Liko managed to free herself, the group decided to flee and they managed to find Friede battling [[Amethio]] and his {{TP|Friede|Charizard}}. As they fled, Moltres ran after the group of young Trainers, but Friede had Charizard attract Moltres' attention, leaving the way clear for Roy and Liko to take care of Captain Pikachu and forcing Moltres to face him and Amethio in the mine. In the [[HZ023|following episode]], Moltres reappeared and saw Liko's group and decide to battle them again.

In ''[[HZ023|Fiery Galarian Moltres]]'', Moltres was then confronted by Liko, Roy, and Friede again, but this time with the Trainers being successfully able to hold their own in battle with their Pokémon, allowing them to calm it down with {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}'s aromatic leafage with help from Lucius's {{p|Arboliva}}, Moltres eventually calmed down enough to return to its Ancient [[Poké Ball]], allowing itself to be taken care of by Liko and the others.

====Personality and characteristics====
Galarian Moltres is a stubborn Legendary Pokémon that was full of rage and wouldn't hesitate to unleash its wrath upon those that provoke it, but it has kind-hearted personality towards its Trainer Lucius.

'''Lucius's Lapras''' (Japanese: '''ルシアス‎のラプラス''' ''Lucius's Laplace'') was a Pokémon that in the past belonged to [[Lucius]]. Currently, Lapras is under the care of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Lapras was the fourth of six Pokémon belonging to the Ancient Adventurer that [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] encountered on their journey and the third to join the young members of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

===In the anime===
[[File:Lucius Pokémon.png|left|250px|thumb|Lapras and Lucius in Alex's books]]
====History====
=====With Lucius=====
In ancient times, Lucius traveled with six Pokémon, referred to as the "Six Heroes". They all worked together towards a single goal, and each of them had a specific purpose. One of these Pokémon was an oversized {{p|Lapras}}, which was used to "cross the seas".

At the end of their adventures, these Pokémon found the [[Laqua|promised paradise]]. At some point after these adventures, these Pokémon scattered across the {{pkmn|world}}.

====As a wild Pokémon====
Lapras was eventually be discovered by the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] in ''[[HZ031|Song Within the Mist]]'' with the help of a local fisherman and his {{p|Floatzel}}. But it seems that as the years went by, Lapras sustained damage to its shell in addition to battle scars on the right side of its neck and its left eye. In [[HZ032|the next episode]], [[Liko]] was able to convince Lapras to come with her so it could help lead {{an|Terapagos}} to [[Laqua]].

====Personality and characteristics====
Unlike the majority of its species, who are gentle towards [[human]]s and enjoy carrying them on their backs, Lucius's Lapras acts quite hostile towards those it confronts, sneering at them with great anger. It also started helping [[wild Pokémon]] commit several robberies of ships carrying supplies to help its Pokémon friends survive. Even when faced with its friend, {{an|Terapagos}}, Lapras did not back down from its actions, although it visibly hesitated upon seeing Terapagos.

Much like its fellow Six Heroes teammates, Lapras holds great respect and affection for Lucius, as Lapras shed tears upon witnessing a memory of Lucius, and ultimately joined Liko after she promised to help take Lapras, and its friends, to Laqua, the paradise that Lucius once sought to take them to.

====Pokémon====
During the years of its separation from Lucius, Lapras gathered a huge group of Pokémon by its side. [[Diana]] named this group "The Pirates of Lapras". As soon as Lapras decided to travel with Liko, the Pokémon decided to travel again, being guided by Wailord.

'''Tatsugiri''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''シャリタツ''' ''Syaritatsu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it has three separate [[#Form data|forms]]: '''Curly Form''', '''Droopy Form''', and '''Stretchy Form'''.

Tatsugiri interacts with {{p|Dondozo}} in [[Double Battle]]s via its [[signature Ability]], {{a|Commander}}, and Dondozo's [[signature move]], {{m|Order Up}}.

==Biology==
Tatsugiri is a small piscine dragon Pokémon that comes in three forms. All forms share the same basic physiology, with two large eyes, long pectoral fins, a wavy dorsal fin, and a split tail fin. All forms also have a white throat sac, which resembles a bed of rice when inflated; Tatsugiri inflates its throat sac to camouflage itself. The major difference between each form of Tatsugiri is its colors and the poses it makes. Curly Form Tatsugiri is orange with darker orange splotches all over its body and a white underbelly, and it often assumes an upcurled stance. Droopy Form Tatsugiri is mostly a pinkish-red, with white colorations on its belly and fins; true to its name, it tends to droop on its throat sac. Stretchy Form Tatsugiri is a solid yellow, except for its white throat sac; it assumes a straight, horizontal pose. It is said that Tatsugiri's various forms are an adaptation to suit the preferences of its prey.

Although relatively weak, Tatsugiri is one of the most intelligent dragon Pokémon. It baits prey such as bird Pokémon by playing dead. When its prey approaches, Tatsugiri then commands its partner, {{p|Dondozo}}, to attack. The Dondozo follows the orders of its Tatsugiri partner loyally, and provides the Tatsugiri protection and shelter with its large mouth, in exchange for a greater chance at catching prey.

Tatsugiri is the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Commander}} as an [[Ability]].

A {{pkmn2|giant}} Tatsugiri, together with a giant Dondozo, are both known as the False Dragon Titan, one of the [[Titan Pokémon]] found in the [[Paldea]] region.

===Forms===
Tatsugiri has three separate forms: Curly Form, Droopy Form, and Stretchy Form.

===Form data===
Tatsugiri has three different non-interchangeable forms: Curly Form (which is orange), Droopy Form (which is magenta), and Stretchy Form (which is yellow), each with different colors, fin shapes, and patterns on their bodies. When {{p|Dondozo}} uses the move {{m|Order Up}} after Tatsugiri has entered its mouth using its [[Ability]] {{a|Commander}}, the [[stat]] boost that Dondozo gains is based on the Tatsugiri form in its mouth, with Curly Form increasing {{stat|Attack}}, Droopy Form increasing {{stat|Defense}}, and Stretchy Form increasing {{stat|Speed}}.

==Trivia==
* Tatsugiri and its {{Shiny}} forms were designed by [[James Turner]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/JamesTurner_42/status/1634467575898710017 James Turner on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/JamesTurner_42/status/1634470202250342402 James Turner on Twitter]</ref>
* Tatsugiri is the only {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Water 2}}, and the only Dragon-type {{DL|List of Pokémon by shape|Pokémon with fins}}.
** Droopy Form Tatsugiri is the only {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|pink}} Dragon-type Pokémon.

===Origin===
Tatsugiri seems to be based on {{wp|sushi}}, specifically the ''nigirizushi'' (a type of sushi shaped by hands, instead of rolled): Curly Form resembles a shrimp nigiri, Droopy Form resembles a tuna nigiri, and Stretchy Form resembles an egg or a herring roe nigiri. Likewise, {{Shiny}} Curly Form resembles an eel nigiri, Shiny Droopy Form resembles a halibut or a squid nigiri, and Shiny Stretchy Form resembles a salmon nigiri. Tatsugiri also somewhat resembles the {{wp|koi}} fish, which, like Tatsugiri, has many colored varieties.

Tatsugiri's Dragon type may be a reference to the East Asian cultural association of koi (and carp in general) with dragons. Curly Form's curved posture may also be a reference to {{wp|Shachihoko}}. Tatsugiri's {{wp|Sarcopterygii|lobed fins}} and its ability to walk on land may be inspired by {{wp|lungfish}}es and lungfish-like species like ''{{wp|Polypterus senegalus}}'', sometimes known as "dragonfish".

Tatsugiri's habit of entering Dondozo's mouth is a possible reference to {{wp|Mouthbrooder|mouthbrooding}}, a parenting style performed by many species of fish where the parent fish will keep their offspring safe by holding them inside their mouth. Tatsugiri's hunting methods may also be a reference to {{wp|fishing lures}} and {{wp|fishing bait}}. Tatsugiri and Dondozo's synergy together seems to reference the common [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrainsAndBrawn "Brains and Brawn" team-up] trope in media, as Tatsugiri is physically weak but highly intelligent, and acts as the boss for the powerful but unintelligent Dondozo.

====Name origin====
Tatsugiri may be a combination of 竜 ''tatsu'' (Japanese for dragon) and 握り寿司 ''{{wp|sushi|nigirizushi}}''.

Syaritatsu may be a combination of シャリ ''shari'' (sushi rice) and 竜 ''tatsu''.

'''Dondozo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヘイラッシャ''' ''Heyrusher'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Dondozo interacts with {{p|Tatsugiri}} in [[Double Battle]]s via its [[signature move]], {{m|Order Up}}, and Tatsugiri's [[signature Ability]], {{a|Commander}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Dondozo tongue.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Dondozo's tongue, with three Tatsugiri on top<ref>[https://twitter.com/poke_times/status/1643176584415682564 Tweet by 【公式】ポケモン情報局 (@poke_times).] Posted on April 4, 2023.</ref>]]
Dondozo is a giant piscine Pokémon. Its body has three colors: light blue at the top; dark blue in the middle; and white on its belly, upper lip, and fins. It has a pair of pectoral fins and its rear half is flanked on either side by elongated anal fins, ending at a large, fan-like tail fin. On top of its head is a ring of six frills arranged in a circle: the two rightmost frills are much longer and end in flat tips, resembling a {{wp|hachimaki}}, while the other four are shorter and rounded. It has three gills on either side of its body. Its face has a short protrusion resembling a nose, along with dark blue lips, a blue tongue, a pair of long {{wp|Barbel (anatomy)|barbels}} above its upper lip, and five barbels on its lower jaw, with one of them being longer and curled, located just below its lower lip. Dondozo's tongue is long and rectangular with two blocky protrusions below it, altogether resembling a ''{{jwp|寿司下駄|sushi geta}}'' (wooden serving tray for sushi).

Dondozo is [[List of Pokémon by height|one of the biggest Pokémon]] ever discovered, and is a heavy eater. Although powerful, Dondozo is dull and not very good at hunting, so it teams up with {{p|Tatsugiri}} to catch prey. The Tatsugiri baits their prey by playing dead and then commands Dondozo to attack. Dondozo is loyal to Tatsugiri and acts as its subordinate, protecting it inside its mouth from enemies. {{p|Basculin}} is among the species Dondozo preys upon.

Dondozo is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Order Up}}.

==Trivia==
* Dondozo is the [[list of Pokémon by height|tallest Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]].
* Dondozo and its {{Shiny}} coloration were designed by [[James Turner]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/JamesTurner_42/status/1634814245027172352 James Turner on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/JamesTurner_42/status/1635032899308371968 James Turner on Twitter]</ref>

===Origin===
Dondozo seems to be based on the {{wp|wels catfish}}, a large species of {{wp|catfish}} that is native to Europe and was introduced to Spain. Its {{Shiny}} coloration resembles an {{wp|albino}} wels catfish. The presence of bird Pokémon in Dondozo's diet may be inspired by the wels catfish's hunting behavior, as some individuals have been known to successfully hunt terrestrial birds by beaching themselves. Dondozo may also be based on a {{wp|sushi}} chef, considering its relationship with {{p|Tatsugiri}}, the frills on its head which resemble a bandana or headband commonly worn as part of a sushi chef's uniform, and its tongue which resembles a ''{{wp|ja:寿司下駄|sushi geta}}''. Its face also somewhat resembles that of a {{wp|smooth-head blobfish}}.

Dondozo keeping Tatsugiri inside its mouth may be a reference to {{wp|Mouthbrooder|mouthbrooding}}, a parenting style performed by many species of fish–including some catfish species–where the parent fish will keep their offspring safe by holding them inside their mouth. Dondozo's low smarts and larger size compared to Tatsugiri, combined with their synergy together, seem to reference the common [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrainsAndBrawn "Brains and Brawn" team-up] trope in media. Tatsugiri acting as the boss supports this, as the "Brains" is most often the leader in these team-ups.

====Name origin====
Dondozo may be a combination of ''don'' (Spanish for lord) and どうぞ ''dōzo'' (Japanese for "please (help yourself)"; typically said when offering something). ''Don'' also refers to a crime boss, which may allude to Dondozo's relationship with Tatsugiri, who acts as its {{wp|consigliere}}. It may also derive from ''bozo'', in reference to Dondozo's dimwitted nature.

Heyrusher may be a combination of へいらっしゃい ''heirasshai'' ("Hey, come on in"; typically said by sushi restaurant chefs when greeting customers) and the agentive suffix ～者 ''-sha'' or ''-er''. It may also refer to {{wp|Rusher Itamae}}, a Japanese comedian. 板前 ''Itamae'' is a Japanese word referring to a chef of traditional Japanese cuisine, and can refer to a sushi chef.

Primal Reversion

2024-05-14T21:42:22Z

Immblueversion:

{{redirect|Primal|the Pokémon from {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}} and {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky}}|Primal Dialga}}
[[File:Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre artwork.png|thumb|300px|Primal {{p|Groudon}} and Primal {{p|Kyogre}}]]
'''Primal Reversion''' (Japanese: '''ゲンシカイキ''' ''Primal Regression'') is an ancient transformation affecting {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}. It debuted in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]].

The process is said to restore a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s true powers as it absorbs the energy of nature to greatly increase its potential. It has been described in-game as an ancient form of [[Evolution|Pokémon Evolution]]. Primal Reversion has been absent from the [[core series]] since {{g|Sword and Shield}}, though it still appears in {{spin-off games}} such as {{g|GO}}, as well as in other media.

==Terminology==
{{main|Terminology of Primal Reversion}}
Primal Reversion uses the same English name but a different Japanese name to refer specifically to the transformed version of a Pokémon: '''Primal Reversion''' (Japanese: '''ゲンシカイキのすがた''' ''Primal Regression's Form''). This appears as the name of this form of Kyogre and Groudon in the [[Pokédex]], including in {{g|HOME}}.

Pokémon that have undergone Primal Reversion are distinguished by the word "'''Primal'''" (starting with a capital letter) in front of their species name: '''Primal Kyogre''' and '''Primal Groudon'''. Each is referred to as their '''primal form''' in [[Generation VI]] and [[Pokémon GO]], or as '''primal state''' in [[Generation VII]], written in lowercase (Japanese: '''{{ruby|原始|げんし}}の{{ruby|姿|すがた}}''' ''primal form/state'').

==In the core series games==
===Gameplay===
====In battle====
[[File:Encountering Primal Kyogre ORAS.png|thumb|right|Encountering Primal Kyogre]]
In order to undergo Primal Reversion, a Pokémon only needs to be holding the appropriate [[Colored orbs|orb]]. Like [[Mega Stone]]s, orbs cannot be removed during battle if held by the appropriate Pokémon. Unlike [[Mega Evolution]], however, the player does not need a [[Key Stone]] or have to manually trigger Primal Reversion; it will simply happen automatically after the Pokémon enters battle and after any [[List of moves that cause entry hazards|entry hazards]] take effect, but before the activation of [[weather]]-changing {{Abilities}}.

If a Pokémon that has undergone Primal Reversion faints and then is [[revive]]d, it will still be in its primal form after revival. In contrast, this does not occur to a Pokémon that has [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]].

In a [[Rotation Battle]], the Pokémon will only undergo Primal Reversion if it is sent out in the primary position; the Primal Reversion will not activate if the Pokémon is sent out in a secondary position at the start of the battle and then rotated to the primary position. Also, unlike Mega Evolution and [[Ultra Burst]], there is no limit to the number of times a Primal Reversion may be performed per battle.

====Outside of battle====
In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], if a Pokémon is holding the appropriate orb for Primal Reversion when it is entered into a [[Pokémon Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectacular]], it will automatically appear in its primal form for the entirety of the show. However, this has no effect on the Pokémon's performance.

====Base stat comparison====
Similar to [[Mega Evolution]], Primal Reversion increases a Pokémon's base stat total by 100.

==In the spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon GO]]===
{{main|Mega Evolution (GO)}}
Primal Reversion was introduced in Pokémon GO on February 18, 2023. Rather than using the [[Red Orb]] or [[Blue Orb]], an eligible Pokémon instead consumes Primal Energy to undergo a temporary Primal Reversion. Primal Reversion is functionally similar to Mega Evolution. The only differences are the types affected by the 1.3× power boost given to allies in raids (Primal Groudon affects {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Ground}}, while Primal Kyogre affects {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Water}} and {{t|Bug}}) and that the damage bonuses are active whenever the Primal Pokémon is in the party, not only when it is on the field. A player can only have one active Mega Evolution or Primal Reversion at a time.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''====
Primal [[Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)#Groudon|Groudon]] and Primal [[Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)#Kyogre|Kyogre]] both appeared in ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', where they had a clash with one another off the coast of [[Rustboro City]]. [[Alain]] and {{Steven}} attempted to fight the ancient Pokémon with their [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X and Mega {{TP|Steven|Metagross}}, but they were soon overpowered. Soon after, a Mega [[Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)#Rayquaza|Rayquaza]] appeared, battled, and eventually managed to defeat the two Primal Pokémon, causing them to return to their regular forms.

Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre also appeared in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', where they were summoned and controlled by {{an|Hoopa|Hoopa Unbound}} along with the [[Pokémon of Myth]] and {{p|Kyurem}} to attack {{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, Hoopa Confined, a {{Shiny}} Rayquaza, and the [[Eon duo]] in [[Dahara City]].

After some training at the [[Meteor Falls]], both Primal Pokémon managed to master their special moves; {{m|Precipice Blades}} and {{m|Origin Pulse}}, respectively. However, both ancient Pokémon, even when assisted by {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}}, completely exhausted themselves while destroying a large piece of the meteoroid falling before the main body, causing them to revert to their regular forms.

Primal Reversion were brought into the Trading Card Game with the release of {{TCG|Primal Clash}} ({{TCG|Gaia Volcano}} • {{TCG|Tidal Storm}} in Japan). Primal Reversion is an extension of the {{TCG|Pokémon-EX|Mega Evolution Pokémon}} mechanics. As such, Primal Reversion Pokémon only evolve from the long-standing {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} and are Pokémon-EX themselves. The only Primal Reversion Pokémon are the {{TCG ID|Primal Clash|Primal Kyogre-EX|55}} and {{TCG ID|Primal Clash|Primal Groudon-EX|86}} cards from Primal Clash and {{TCG|Ancient Origins}}. Each Primal Reversion Pokémon features an {{TCG|Ancient Trait}}. The Ancient Origins prints feature the {{shiny}} versions of the Pokémon and replace the original Ancient Traits with θ Max, but are otherwise identical to the Primal Clash cards.

[[File:Gym Symbol.png|thumb|150px|The Gym symbol, introduced in [[Generation V]]]]
A '''Gym''' (Japanese: '''ジム''' ''Gym'') (short for '''Pokémon Gym''') is a place where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s go to {{pkmn|training|train}} their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Just like real-life {{wp|gym}}nasiums, where one can go to work out and build physical strength, Pokémon Gyms are places where Trainers can go to sharpen their {{pkmn|battle|battling}} skills and where their Pokémon can go to gain [[experience]].

Often specializing in a particular [[type]], Gyms create an environment which allows Trainers to test both their skills and Pokémon against those of others. The most powerful Trainer in a given Gym is called the [[Gym Leader]], who is revered by both the lower-ranking members of the Gym and local fans. Usually, Gyms are designed to follow and suit the type that the Gym specializes in, such as [[Wattson]]'s Gym that has electric gates to indicate that it is {{t|Electric}}. However, there are also Gyms that do not practice this, such as [[Viridian Gym]] or [[Cinnabar Gym]].

Official Gyms are certified by a [[Pokémon League]], and at least eight official Gym [[Badge]]s are requested before taking the Pokémon League challenge. Gyms are vital to a Pokémon Trainer's {{pkmn|journey}}; they may have to travel far and wide, as there can only be one Gym per city. There are also unofficial Gyms that are not certified, many of which are prestigious nonetheless. Currently, [[Alola]] is the only region with no Gyms or Gym Leader; instead, a ceremony known as the [[island challenge]] takes its place.

==In core series games==
===Official Gyms===
Most official Gyms feature a number of Trainers that the player may face before battling the Gym Leader. Their teams typically consist of the same [[type]] of Pokémon that the Gym Leader has. These Trainers cannot be battled after the Gym Leader has been defeated, with the exception of those found in [[Driftveil Gym]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}.

The [[Gym guide]] routinely stands at the entrance of the Gym, giving the player advice about the type advantages corresponding to the signature type of the Gym Leader.

There are generally eight known official Gyms in [[core series]] [[region]]s that include Gyms. In [[Galar]], Gym Leaders typically are fought in Stadiums that welcome spectators and facilitate the use of [[Dynamax]] through a Power Spot.

{{incomplete|section|needs=HGSS pictures different colors, Generation VI pictures}}
[[Generation II|Generations II]], {{gen|V}}, {{gen|VI}}, and {{gen|VIII}} have a unique design for each Gym (except [[Cinnabar Gym]], which is destroyed). However, in Generation II, the only difference is the shape and color of the roof, with the exception of Saffron and Cerulean Gyms. In Generation VIII, the only differences are the color scheme and the type logo above the entrance, with the exceptions of Motostoke Stadium, Spikemuth Gym, and Hammerlocke Stadium.

===Unofficial Gyms===
====Saffron City Dojo====
{{Main|Fighting Dojo}}
The Trainers of this Gym specialize in {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon. It used to be an official Gym until [[Sabrina]] defeated its Leader, [[Koichi]]. After the player defeats the Dojo's Karate Master Koichi, he will give the player either {{p|Hitmonlee}} or {{p|Hitmonchan}} as a reward.

====Prestige Precept center====
{{main|Prestige Precept Center}}
Also known as the Pre Gym, this unofficial Gym of [[Phenac City]] doubles as an {{pkmn|academy}}. In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], its Leader, [[Justy]], will not battle the Trainer until they have at least six Pokémon, and will give away {{TM|27|Return}}.

====Kantonian Gym====
{{main|Kantonian Gym}}
In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], there is an unofficial Gym in [[Malie City]] modeled after the [[Vermilion Gym]] from Kanto. The Leader of this Gym will give the [[Surge Badge]] after the player defeats him for the first time.

==In Pokémon GO==
{{main|Gym (GO)}}
[[File:GO Guide Gym 1.png|thumb|150px|A Gym in Pokémon GO, claimed by Team Valor, with a {{p|Metagross}} as its strongest Pokémon]]
In [[Pokémon GO]], Gyms are located at various locations in the real world, being depicted as large towers in the Map View.

If a Gym tower is red, yellow, or blue, that Gym is currently controlled by the team of that color; if a Gym tower is white, that Gym is currently not controlled by any team.

After selecting a team (which can only be done after reaching level 5), a player can battle at Gyms. At Gyms of an opposing team, players can challenge them in order to decrease the motivation of Pokémon in the Gym, causing it to leave if its motivation hits 0. If all of a Gym's Pokémon are removed, the Gym becomes free to be claimed by any team.

{{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s occur exclusively at Gyms.
{{-}}

==In the anime==
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Trainers challenge Gyms in order to earn Badges, which grant them entry to that region's [[Pokémon League Conference]]. All official Gyms present in the [[core series]] prior to [[Generation VIII]] games have been featured in the anime.

With the exception of the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]], most regions seem to have at least eight Gyms which Trainers can choose to challenge, and winning Badges from any eight qualifies a Trainer for the region's Pokémon League Conference. In [[Unova]], while Ash originally intended to earn the Legend Badge, he ultimately earns the Toxic Badge from the [[Virbank Gym]] as his eighth Badge instead.

Many fellow Trainers that Ash has encountered have been shown to have Badges that do not exist in the games, such as [[Gary Oak]] earning ten Badges in Kanto. Other Badges observed in the anime which do not correspond to known Badges suggest that there are at least nine Gyms in [[Hoenn]], 11 in [[Sinnoh]], 14 in [[Unova]], and 11 in [[Kalos]]. Despite this, Ash's Badge case has frequently had indents specifically shaped for the Badges that appear in the games.

Gyms can be battled in any order, with Ash and his friends seeming to pick out Gyms based on their current location. However, at times, a certain Gym order has been implied in the anime. In the case of Hoenn, Ash originally challenges [[Norman]] in ''[[AG003|There's No Place Like Hoenn]]'', at which time Norman explains to Ash that he must have three Pokémon to challenge the [[Petalburg Gym]] officially. Instead, Norman points to [[Rustboro Gym|Rustboro]] as the first Gym Ash should face.

In Kalos, due to {{an|Clemont}}'s perception of an ideal challenger of the [[Lumiose Gym]], he programmed the [[Clembot]]—the substitute [[Gym Leader]]—to throw out challengers who did not have four Kalos Gym Badges. As a result, when Ash attempted to challenge the Gym shortly after arriving in the Kalos region, Clembot acted according to its programming and threw him out. After Clemont [[XY009|was able to reprogram the Clembot]], he removed the Badge restriction, but Ash indicated he would still collect four Badges before challenging Clemont himself at the Gym.

In Galar, Stadium battlefields are surrounded by a force field that protects the audience from Pokémon attacks, including the moves of [[Dynamax]] and [[Gigantamax]] Pokémon.

Gyms are inspected by the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency]], which can shut down Gyms which are not up to standard. The Agency can also determine whether unofficial Gyms are worthy of becoming official.

===Rules===
Most Gym battles are conducted as Single Battles, although some have been held as [[Double Battle]]s.

In most cases, Gym Leaders are not permitted to [[Recall|switch]] Pokémon while challengers are; although those that Ash encountered before [[Blaine]] did switch, since {{Ash}}'s match against Blaine in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', only [[Lenora]] has switched out a Pokémon. Challengers are usually only allowed to use the same number of Pokémon as the Gym Leader, but some Gym battles—such as with [[Roxie]] and [[Grant]]—have exceptions. In a Gym battle, a Pokémon is determined to be unable to battle when declared as such by a [[battle judge]].

Gym Leaders appear to be able to impose their own rules, in addition to the standard set of rules for Gym battles. In particular, the [[Orange League|Orange Crew]] all have entire Gym matches devoted to unconventional battling styles.

====Special rules====
* For [[Mossdeep Gym]]'s {{badge|Mind}}, Ash battled [[Tate and Liza]] in a [[Double Battle]]. For [[Anistar Gym]]'s {{badge|Psychic}}, he battled [[Olympia]] in a Double Battle.
* [[Juan]] of [[Sootopolis Gym]] has a unique two round system, with the first round being a Double Battle. Once the challenger wins the first round, they enter the second round, battling against three of his Pokémon in a Single Battle. Only the challenger is allowed to substitute, and can use five Pokémon.
* When Ash challenged [[Whitney]] of the [[Goldenrod Gym]] in Johto to a rematch, he fought three-on-one in his favor, with Whitney only using her {{p|Miltank}}.
* For the [[Striaton Gym]]'s {{badge|Trio}}, the challenger can choose which of the three Gym Leaders they want to battle. However, Ash challenged all three triplets, making the battle a best-two-out-of-three tournament, with Ash only earning a Badge after defeating at least two of the Gym Leaders.
* For the [[Nacrene Gym]]'s {{badge|Basic}}, both the challenger and the Gym Leader use the same number of Pokémon, with both being allowed to make substitutions.
* For the [[Mistralton Gym]]'s {{badge|Jet}}, the challenger and the Gym Leader used to engage in "Air Battles". In these, the Gym Leader first displays her three chosen Pokémon, followed with the challenger revealing their own three, then the Gym Leader decides the outcome of the battle using her own experience without even physically battling.
* For the [[Virbank Gym]]'s {{badge|Toxic}}, the battle was teams of three-on-six in Ash's favor, with only him being allowed to make substitutions.
* For the [[Cyllage Gym]]'s {{badge|Cliff}}, the Gym Leader uses only two Pokémon, while the challenger has access to all of theirs.

====Orange League====
In the anime-exclusive [[Orange League]], the four Gym Leaders each have their own special requirements challengers must meet in order to gain their Gym Badges.

* For the {{badge|Coral Eye}}, the challenger and Gym Leader [[Cissy]] go head-to-head in three water-based physical challenges using their Water-type Pokémon.
* For the {{badge|Sea Ruby}}, the challenger must complete two of Gym Leader [[Danny]]'s three challenges, though they were only qualified to do so if they could pass his pre-test, which was to climb a mountain to the peak, where the Gym is located. These challenges are to freeze a geyser with their Pokémon's ice attack, build a bobsled (or toboggan) from said geyser with the help of three of their Pokémon, and compete in a bobsled race down the side of the mountain against Danny.
* For the {{badge|Spike Shell}}, Gym Leader [[Rudy]] assigns the challenger an attack challenge in which they must use their Pokémon to knock down all the targets on a tricky water course. If they pass this pre-test, they must defeat Rudy in a three-on-three battle, with Pokémon of the same type battling each other.
* For the {{badge|Jade Star}}, the challenger must battle Gym Leader [[Luana]] in a [[Double Battle]].

====Puzzles====
Some Gyms also require the challenger to undergo a trial or a test before they can battle the Gym Leader.

* The [[Fuchsia Gym]] in Kanto was set up like a ninja house and riddled with traps, which the Trainers had to make their way through before they were allowed to challenge the Gym Leader.
* The [[Cinnabar Gym]] (again in Kanto) was hidden, and required challengers to find it by solving the riddles given by the disguised Gym Leader, [[Blaine]]. Despite Ash technically being the challenger, it was [[Misty (anime)|Misty]] who ultimately solved all of the riddles.
* The [[Nacrene Gym]] in Unova could only be accessed if the Trainer picks the single right book in an entire library. To make it easier, [[Lenora]] even reaches up and rests her fingers on the book in question as a hint, though many of her potential opponents fail to take said hint.
* The [[Lumiose Gym]] in Kalos, when under the charge of the [[Clembot]], used to first require Trainers to have four Badges before they could challenge the Gym.

===Official Gyms===
=====Orange Archipelago=====
The [[Orange Archipelago]] also contains its own league, complete with its own Gyms:

====Pokémon Origins====
All eight Kanto Gyms featured in the games {{game|Red and Green|s}} were shown in [[Pokémon Origins]], which primarily showcased {{OBP|Red|Origins}} challenging the [[Pewter Gym]] in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'' and the [[Viridian Gym]] in ''[[PO01|File 3: Giovanni]]''.

Unlike the main series anime, the Gyms closely follow the system utilised in the games, where the challenger is able to use all Pokémon in their team against the [[Gym Leader]]. Gyms also have scoreboards featuring each Trainer's current Pokémon and their remaining [[HP]]. Gym Leaders may also hand out a [[TM]] along with their [[Badge]], and are shown to be capable of altering their Pokémon used in battle, with [[Brock]] choosing two out of six potential Pokémon, and [[Giovanni]] using a different set of Pokémon than those used against his battle with {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}.

===Unofficial Gyms===
====A.J.'s Gym====
This Gym is run solely by the Trainer [[A.J.]], and is notable for its rigorous training methods. It is unknown what prize if any A.J. gave to any victorious challengers, because he left it to enter the [[Pokémon League]] after he defeated 100 challengers in a row using only his {{p|Sandshrew}}. This Gym appears in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''.

====Fighting Spirit Gym====
This Gym was run by {{OBP|Anthony|EP029}}, who was training his {{p|Hitmonchan}} for the [[P1 Grand Prix]]. It did not appear to be used for actual [[Pokémon battle]]s. Instead, it had the appearance of a {{wp|gym}} used for training and exercising. This Gym appears in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''.

====Kaz Gym====
This Gym in [[Dark City]] wanted to become an official Gym to earn money, but was rejected by the [[Pokémon League]]. It has Pokémon of various types, but its primary Pokémon is an {{p|Electabuzz}}. This Gym appears in ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'' and is run by [[Kaz]].

====Yas Gym====
This Gym in [[Dark City]] wanted to become an official Gym to earn money, but was rejected by the [[Pokémon League]]. The Gym Trainers specialize in {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon but the Gym Leader's Pokémon is a {{p|Scyther}}. This Gym appears in ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'' and is run by [[Yas]].

====Coastline Gym====
This is an unofficial Gym that appeared in ''[[EP256|Just Add Water]]''. It is located on the outskirts of [[Blackthorn City]]. Led by [[Dorian]], the Gym specializes in {{type|Water}} Pokémon. Unlike the other Water-type Gyms, Dorian holds his battles underwater.

Although the Gym is unofficial, Dorian is hoping that it will become more popular by word-of-mouth. In fact, after {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} visited the Gym, they promised they would tell everyone at the [[Silver Conference]] about it. However, it hasn't been mentioned since then.

====Anthony's Gym====
{{OBP|Anthony|AG010}} (not to be confused with the Anthony mentioned above) ran an unofficial Gym purely for bragging rights. His powerful {{p|Pelipper}} and its peculiar move set, including {{m|Vine Whip}} and {{m|Flamethrower}}, were eventually revealed to be a well orchestrated hoax. Anthony admitted that Pelipper carried {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} inside its mouth. As a result, Anthony decided to close the Gym and travel with Pelipper. This Gym appears in ''[[AG010|You Said a Mouthful!]]''.

====Powerzone Gym====
This is an unofficial Gym run by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} in ''[[DP008|Gymbaliar!]]''. They used the Gym as a method of training and building strategies; however, they were on a losing streak until a [[Brock's Croagunk|wild Croagunk]] appeared and was used as Jessie's powerhouse.

====Kantonian Gym====
The [[Kantonian Gym]] from {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} appeared in ''[[SM118|Aiming for the Top Floor!]]''. In the anime, it is run by [[Ryuki]], and is not themed after any Kanto Gym in particular, with its ninja theming being based on assumptions made on Kantonian culture. As a result, there are a few differences between the Kantonian Gym challenge and a typical Gym challenge in the anime. Unlike most Gyms, visitors must face the challenges of the four {{tc|Kantonian Gym|Kantonian Gym Trainers}} before advancing to the Leader. However, these challenges are not [[Pokémon battle]]s, like in the games, but a ninja-themed set of obstacles.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
In early chapters of [[Pokémon Adventures]], Gym buildings were likely to be seen only when a character challenged the [[Gym Leader]], as the building would host their Gym battle.

===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
{{adv|Red}} challenged some [[Gym Leader]]s in their respective Gyms.

===={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}====
Roxanne's Gym in [[Rustboro City]] appeared to be retractable, the building acting as both an examination hall and a battlefield.

===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
The Gyms in this chapter incorporate the interior layout and obstacles directly from the games.

{{adv|Platinum}} challenged and defeated the [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym Leader]]in their respective [[Gym]]s, except she trained with [[Volkner]] and battled him outdoors, earning the {{Badge|Beacon}} without entering the [[Sunyshore Gym]]. The Sunyshore Gym itself was seen in ''[[PS404|Encountering Elekid]]''.

===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Gyms in this chapter incorporate the interior layout and obstacles directly from the games.

{{adv|Black}} challenged the [[Unova]] Gym Leaders, visiting seven of the eight Gyms.

===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
Only the [[Santalune Gym]] and [[Lumiose Gym]] appeared in this chapter. {{adv|X}} had an unofficial battle with [[Viola]] at her Gym and won.

===={{MangaArc|Sword & Shield}}====
The Gyms with version-exclusive Gym Leaders are shown to take turns in switching between their two types and Leaders.

The eight Gyms of [[Galar]] appeared in this chapter, though {{Henry}} was only able to challenge six of them before the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] was put on hold due to the impending threat of the [[Darkest Day]].

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[Hareta]] visited some of Sinnoh's Gyms in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]], though he earned most of their Badges either outside of them or off-panel, and visited three of the Gyms only in a quick montage. The only Gym to receive major focus in the manga was the [[Canalave Gym]].

===Pokémon Zensho===
Seven of the eight Kanto Gyms appeared in [[Pokémon Zensho]], six of which were visited by {{Zensho|Satoshi}}. Of the Gym Leaders whom he didn't meet at their respective Gyms, he battled [[Koga]] at the {{safari|Kanto}} and received [[Sabrina]]'s Badge after saving her {{p|Lapras}} from [[Team Rocket]].

==In the TCG==
In the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], all Gyms are {{TCG|Stadium card}}s, which provide a specific effect while they are in play.

===Official Gyms===
This listing is of cards based on official Gyms from the [[Pokémon games]] and often focus on the [[type]] speciality of a particular Gym.

==Trivia==
* For ''[[DP008|Gymbaliar!]]'', [[Professor Oak's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia]] is about Gyms. He writes this {{wp|senryū}} about them: 「かてるまで　なんどもちょうせん　ポケモンジム」 ''"Until you win, battle again and again; that is a Pokémon Gym."''
** This is also the episode {{TRT}} set up a fake Gym, with [[Jessie]] acting as its Leader.
* In [[Generation I]], {{DL|List of glitches (Generation I)|fishing in statues|a glitch}} allows Trainers to [[fishing|fish]] in the statues at the front of the Gyms.
* As the [[Fighting Dojo]] in Kanto was once official, every region except [[Unova]] has had a {{type|Fighting}} Gym at one time.
** Despite the above fact, there has been a Fighting-type specialist in every region, either as a Gym Leader or an Elite Four member.
** A {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the [[Olivine Lighthouse]] also says Jasmine used to specialize in {{type|Rock}} Pokémon, meaning every region except [[Unova]] has had a {{type|Rock}} Gym at one time.
*** This excludes [[Alola]], which does not feature any official gyms
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, each Gym's frame is colored according to the type, except for the [[Viridian Gym]], which has no specialist type. The Viridian Gym's frame is green to reflect the Japanese name of its Gym Leader, {{ga|Blue}}.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, [[walking Pokémon]] are not allowed in the [[Blackthorn Gym]] and [[Viridian Gym]] because the flooring is unstable. Coincidentally, both Gyms are the last of the Gyms challenged in Johto and Kanto, respectively.
* Eight of the eleven Unova Gyms serve dual purposes, both as a place of battle and as a service: [[Striaton Gym]] is a restaurant, [[Nacrene Gym]] is a museum and library, [[Castelia Gym]] is a gallery showcasing the paintings of [[Gym Leader]] [[Burgh]], [[Nimbasa Gym]] is a set of roller coasters to go with the Ferris Wheel in [[Nimbasa City]] in {{game|Black and White|s}} or a fashion show catwalk in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], [[Driftveil Gym]] is a mining operation, [[Mistralton Gym]] is an airplane hangar, [[Aspertia Gym]] is a school, and [[Virbank Gym]] is a music club.
** In Generations V and VI, Gyms do not take on a single appearance, with their look being customized to suit the Gym Leader's specialist type. Gyms previously only had unique designs in Generation II, where the roof colors differed between Gyms.
* In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, every Gym has, with the exception of [[Aspertia Gym]], a unique remix of the usual Pokémon Gym theme music.
* Alola is the only region introduced in the core series to not feature any Gyms. A similar role is fulfilled by the [[island challenge]].

'''Teddiursa''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヒメグマ''' ''Himeguma'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Ursaring}} starting at [[level]] 30.

In [[Hisui]], Ursaring evolves into {{p|Ursaluna}} when exposed to a [[Peat Block]] during a [[Time#Time-based evolutions|full moon]]. Ursaring is not known to evolve into any other Pokémon in other regions.

==Biology==
Teddiursa is a bipedal, {{wp|bear|ursine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} covered in short, orange-brown fur. Its muzzle is a light tan color with a small black nose and black eyes with white irises. There is a slightly paler tan crescent moon marking on its face, and it has round ears. It has three claws on its forepaws as well as two claws and yellow paw pads on its hind paws. Its tail is short, round, and puffy.

Teddiursa is almost always seen licking its forepaws, which are soaked in [[honey]] — every Teddiursa has a different flavor on its paws. When it feels nervous, it will lick its paws to calm itself down. The marking on its face can glow when it finds honey. While Teddiursa is able to make its own honey by blending pollen collected by {{p|Beedrill}} with fruits, it is also known to steal honey from {{p|Combee}} nests, which it finds by stealthily following the Combee. Teddiursa lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountainous forests}}, where it will hide food throughout its territory before food becomes scarce in winter.

===Evolution===
Teddiursa evolves into {{p|Ursaring}}.

In [[Hisui]], Ursaring evolves into {{p|Ursaluna}}.

* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: Teddiursa is a resident of [[Treasure Town]].

Teddiursa becomes the first Pokémon to evolve at the Luminous Spring since its restoration.

[[File:Teddiursa Egg.png|thumb|100px|A Teddiursa {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime]]
====Major appearances====
Teddiursa debuted in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', where [[Molly Hale]] used an illusion of one, created by the {{OBP|Unown|M03}}, as her second Pokémon in her {{pkmn|battle}} against {{an|Brock}}. It quickly defeated {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} with a combination of {{m|Dynamic Punch}} and {{m|Fury Swipes}}. She was later seen playing with a real Teddiursa during the ending credits.

Teddiursa made its main series debut in ''[[EP186|UnBEARable]]''. It was a manipulative thief who would pretend to be cute to humans in order to steal their food and blame it on their Pokémon. Ultimately, after a battle with {{AP|Ash's Chikorita|Bayleef}}, it evolved into {{p|Ursaring}} and was thus no longer able to use its charm on humans with ease, though it would be able to hunt for food on its own.

A Teddiursa is one of the best friends of the [[Pichu Brothers]]. It appeared in ''[[Trouble in Big Town]]'', ''[[HS06|Of Meowth]] [[HS07|and Pokémon]]'', ''[[HS09|Big Meowth]]'', ''[[HS10|Little Dreams]]'', ''[[Pichu Bros. in Party Panic]]'', and ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

In ''[[AG057|Going For A Spinda]]'', a Teddiursa was disguised as a {{p|Spinda}} by {{TRT}}. It was tied up in order to lure a Spinda to them, but instead, its Ursaring parent came and blasted them away.

In ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', multiple Teddiursa helped a {{p|Luxio}} free a {{p|Wailmer}} trapped in the sewers.

In ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]'', [[Normajean]]'s Teddiursa was badly poisoned by a {{p|Tentacruel}} alongside several of her other baby Pokémon. It was then healed when [[Brock's Chansey]] used {{m|Soft-Boiled}} on it.

In ''[[XY046|The Clumsy Crier Quiets the Chaos!]]'', a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}'s Teddiursa was playing with a {{p|Bidoof}} and a {{p|Linoone}} when they were all attacked by a rampaging {{p|Salamence}}. Teddiursa was then taken to a [[Pokémon Center]] and healed with the help of [[Nurse Joy]] and her {{TP|Nurse Joy|Wigglytuff}}.

In ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]'', a Teddiursa befriended by [[Margo]] was targeted alongside a {{p|Ditto}} by [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunters]] looking for {{OBP|Zeraora|M21}}. They were then saved by Zeraora, {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}}, and his friends.

In [[HZ047]], [[Katy]] used her Teddiursa in a battle against [[Liko]].

* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Teddiursa|37}}

==Trivia==
* Teddiursa is one of the fourteen Pokémon for which [[foreign Pokédex entries]] can be collected in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* Teddiursa is the only non-{{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} with a unique sprite in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} (aside from the [[List of Pokémon with form differences|different forms]] of {{p|Deoxys}}). Despite this, it does not appear in the wild in those games.
* Teddiursa can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Phanpy}}: their evolution lines are exclusive to opposite versions of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} (and are the only Pokémon to swap version-exclusive status between localizations), they each have one evolved form prior to [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], and they both have {{a|Pickup}} as an [[Ability]] and lose it upon evolution.
* Despite not being in {{g|Sword and Shield}}, an early [[Pokémon Sword and Shield beta|prototype build]] of the game featured a Teddiursa charm on {{ga|Gloria}}'s bag. This was removed in later prototype builds.
* Despite its fondness for honey in its Pokédex entries and even dropping [[Dazzling Honey]], Dazzling Honey is not among the list of Teddiursa's preferred foods in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

===Origin===
Teddiursa appears to be based on a bear {{wp|cub}}, such as the cub of an {{wp|Asian black bear}}, whose Japanese name (ツキノワグマ ''tsukinowaguma'') literally means "ring-of-the-moon bear". The fact that Teddiursa always licks its paws covered in honey mimics the bears' weakness for it. Teddiursa's appearance also resembles a {{wp|teddy bear}}, and possibly the cubs of other {{wp|honey bear}} species such as the {{wp|sun bear}} or {{wp|sloth bear}}. The marking on Teddiursa's face may come from the aforementioned Asian black bear and the {{wp|Lunar phase|crescent moon}} it is similar to. The connection between a bear and a {{wp|celestial body}} may also reference the {{wp|Ursa Minor}} and {{wp|Ursa Major}} constellations, Teddiursa being the former one.

====Name origin====
Teddiursa may be a combination of ''{{wp|teddy bear}}'' and ''ursa'' ({{wp|Latin}} for bear).

Himeguma may be a combination of 姫 ''hime'' (princess; small; prefix for small in {{jwp|種名|Japanese nomenclature of species}}) or possibly 朏 ''hi'' (crescent moon) and 熊 ''kuma'' (bear).

Groups of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon

2024-04-16T02:31:06Z

Immblueversion:

There are several groups of closely related {{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]]. Depending on the number of Pokémon in these groups, they are often referred to by fans as '''Legendary duos''', '''Legendary trios''', or even '''Legendary quartets''' and '''Legendary quintets'''—or generically, '''Legendary groups'''.

Several groups of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon also have a close relationship with another Legendary or Mythical Pokémon who may be considered their leader or creator. There are also other Legendary and Mythical Pokémon that are closely associated with a Legendary group, but are not considered a leader or member of that group. Additionally, there are some Legendary Pokémon that are closely related but not officially or commonly recognized to be part of their own distinct group.

Members of groups of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon often, but not always, share a [[type]], [[Ability]], or [[Base stats|base stat]] total.

==Terminology==
===Legendary duo===
From [[Generation VII]] onwards, "'''Legendary duo'''" has been officially used on the [[Pokémon.com]] website.

In particular, this term was used at one point referring to [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Lunala}} together, in the context of their use in Double Battles:

* ''"Up next we have the winning restricted pairing from the 2019 Pokémon World Championships, Primal Groudon and Lunala. [...] Opponents will be better prepared for this pairing with the knowledge of how the team operates, meaning it’s only going to get more difficult for this '''Legendary duo''' to continue with its recent success."''<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/internationals/2020/latin-america/vgc-power-rankings Latin America Internationals: Pokémon VGC Power Rankings - Pokémon.com]</ref>

Another example:
* ''"In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon]], the story centered heavily around the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}}. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon]], a new story unfolds featuring {{p|Necrozma}} alongside the '''Legendary duo'''."''<ref>[https://press.pokemon.com/en/releases/NEW-DETAILS-ANNOUNCED-FOR-UPCOMING-GAMES-POKEMON-ULTRA-SUN-AND-P-66605 NEW DETAILS ANNOUNCED FOR UPCOMING GAMES POKÉMON ULTRA SUN AND POKÉMON ULTRA MOON!]</ref>

===Legendary trio===
From [[Generation IV]] onwards, "'''Legendary trio'''" (originally as '''legendary trio''' in lowercase) has been officially used on the [[Pokémon.com]] website:

* ''"Catch up with the '''legendary trio''' of {{p|Entei}} (4/132), {{p|Raikou}} (16/132), and {{p|Suicune}} (19/132)!"'' (referring to {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}}—{{TCG|Secret Wonders}} from the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]])
* ''"The '''Legendary trio''' of {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}} are majestic, ferocious, and really hard to catch."'' (referring to the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Virtual Console]] version of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}})<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/strategy/ten-cant-miss-activities-in-johto-and-beyond Ten Can’t Miss Activities in Johto and Beyond - Pokémon.com]</ref>
* ''"Each of these battles has a five-minute time limit, so you'll need to be efficient as you take on this '''Legendary trio'''."'' (referring to {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]])<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/strategy/postgame-adventures-in-pokemon-lets-go-pikachu-and-pokemon-lets-go-eevee Postgame Adventures in ''Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu!'' and ''Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!'' - Pokémon.com]</ref>

===Other terms===
Some terms have been used by fans but are not known to be officially used: "'''Legendary group'''", "'''Legendary leader'''", "'''Legendary quartet'''", and "'''Legendary quintet'''".

==List of groups==
===Legendary duos===
[[File:Eon duo anime.png|thumb|250px|The [[eon duo]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A Legendary duo is a pair of closely related {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], either representing teamwork or opposition.

In the {{pkmn|games}}, Legendary duos are often found after the {{player}} enters the [[Hall of Fame]] but they usually are not as important to the main storyline as the trios are. Duos or their component parts are featured in several of the {{pkmn|movie}}s as keepers of peace.

Sometimes, pairs of Legendary Pokémon once only presented as duos are revealed to actually be Legendary trios in a subsequent game or games of the same generation. However, even within trios, the dynamic between two of the members is often very close to that of a duo: {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}, {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}, and {{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}} are all examples of this.

===Legendary trios===
[[File:Tao trio anime.png|thumb|250px|The [[Tao trio]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A Legendary trio is a term used to describe a group of three closely-related [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Legendary trios can be subdivided into two tiers: normal trios and {{pkmn2|Special}} trios. Sublegendary trios, which are always the first Legendary Pokémon that appear in any [[Pokédex]] order, are allowed into the many [[Battle Tower]]s and other [[Battle facility|battle facilities]]. They are also the only Pokémon with [[base stats|base stat]] totals of {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 580|580}}, besides the [[Swords of Justice]]. Special trios, whose name comes from the fact that all of them are [[Special Pokémon]], are not allowed in the [[Battle Tower]] and are found closer to the end of the Pokédex in the generation of their release.

Before the introduction of new members to some Legendary groups, the [[Forces of Nature]] and [[legendary giants]] used to be Legendary trios. The [[Swords of Justice]] are also sometimes treated as a trio when {{p|Keldeo}} is excluded.

The term fell into official usage with the {{Shiny}} [[Legendary beasts]]' [[Wonder Card]]s.

===Legendary quartets===
[[File:Guardian deities anime.png|thumb|250px|The [[Guardian deities]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A Legendary quartet is a term used to describe a group of four closely related [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Legendary quartets are mainly sub-Legendary, Keldeo being the only exception. Legendary quartets are usually the first Legendary Pokémon that appear in any [[Pokédex]] order and are allowed into the many [[Battle Tower]]s and other [[Battle facility|battle facilities]]. The only exception is {{p|Keldeo}} due to being a [[Mythical Pokémon]]. They tend not to have leading story roles and are mainly optional captures.

===Legendary quintets===
[[File:Legendary titans anime.png|thumb|250px|The legendary giants in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A Legendary quintet is a term used to describe a group of five closely related [[Legendary Pokémon]]. So far, the only Legendary quintet is a Legendary trio that has received new members several generations after their debut.

==Other relationships==
===Legendary leaders===
Some {{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]] are known to oversee one or more groups of Legendary Pokémon. For Legendary trios, this Pokémon has often been referred to by fans as a '''trio master''', though some Legendary trios with leaders have since expanded into larger groups.

The leader Pokémon and its corresponding group may be related in different ways. For example, {{p|Lugia}} is often considered the leader of the [[legendary birds]]; it is the only one who can quell their fighting when [[Lawrence III]] captures one of them in the second movie, ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

Sometimes a particular member of a group oversees the other members, serving as what some fans have called an '''internal master'''. For example, {{p|Rayquaza}} is the leader of the [[super-ancient Pokémon]]; it stopped the other two members' fighting in {{game|Emerald}}. Another example is mentioned in the [[Generation V]] games; {{p|Landorus}} punishes {{p|Thundurus}} and {{p|Tornadus}} for causing storms as a result of their fighting.

In the {{pkmn|games}}, these Pokémon often require that their subordinates be caught before being encountered.

According to legend, {{p|Arceus}} created all three members of the [[Pokémon of Myth]] after creating the universe, with {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} representing matter, and Giratina representing anti-matter. Arceus also created the [[lake guardians]], which each represent different aspects of spirit. The lake guardians check balance with the Pokémon of Myth. Arceus, known as the Original One, was named Almighty Sinnoh by the Celestica people, before the [[Diamond Clan|Diamond]] and [[Pearl Clan]]s had used the name to refer to Palkia and Dialga instead. Arceus was also shown to be capable of using the Pokémon of Myth's powers at will, manipulating time, space, and anti-matter, even including their [[signature move]]s, {{m|Roar of Time}}, {{m|Spacial Rend}} and {{m|Shadow Force}}, as seen in its boss fight.

;Ogerpon and the Loyal Three
[[File:Loyal Three fight Ogerpon.png|right|thumb|Battle between Ogerpon and the Loyal Three]]
After the Loyal Three gained strength from their toxic chains, they stole {{p|Ogerpon}}'s masks, but became mistakenly recognized as heroes of [[Kitakami]], and Ogerpon was seen as a villainous ogre. The trio held a strong grudge against Ogerpon after it slayed them, and Ogerpon appeared to fear and hate them for everything they'd done to it.

;Arceus, Type<nowiki>:</nowiki> Null, and Silvally
After being deemed a failure upon its creation at [[Aether Paradise]], Type: Full's head was sealed with a helmet, and the Pokémon was renamed to {{p|Type: Null}}. Type: Null's evolution, Silvally and its [[Ability]], {{a|RKS System}}, are based on Arceus and its Ability, {{a|Multitype}}, for the purpose of being an "Anti-[[Ultra Beast|UB]] Fighting life-form", named "beast killer". The ring around the collar of Type: Null's helmet resembles the golden wheel around Arceus' body.

Long ago, {{p|Pecharunt}} reached [[Kitakami]] with its retainers, {{p|Okidogi}}, {{p|Munkidori}}, and {{p|Fezandipiti}}. The four planned to steal a brilliant set of masks that belonged to a human man and {{p|Ogerpon}} as requested by Pecharunt's caretakers. After a struggle, they succeeded in stealing three of the masks, but left Ogerpon's companion seriously injured. When Ogerpon discovered what happened, it went after the four thieves, slaying the three retainers and defeating Pecharunt, leaving it unconscious for years. Hundreds of years later, Ogerpon still holds a grudge against Pecharunt.

N's Pokémon

2024-04-05T00:00:23Z

Immblueversion:

'''N's Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''Ｎのポケモン''' ''N's Pokémon'') are Pokémon in {{2v2|Black|White|2}} that were previously [[Caught Pokémon|owned]] by the [[Pokémon Trainer]] [[N]].

==In the games==
[[File:N Darmanitan encounter.png|thumb|right|An encounter with N's Darmanitan]]
N's Pokémon are obtainable via [[Memory Link]], with the exception of [[N's Zorua]], who is obtainable through the main story by defeating [[Rood]] and receiving it from him. Once Memory Link is used, if the player has completed the storyline of {{game|Black and White|s}} (defeating N and [[Ghetsis]]), the player must watch the flashback "Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye". After seeing this memory, the player may encounter N's Pokémon.

N's Pokémon have a 1% encounter chance whenever it is possible to encounter one. Upon encountering one of N's Pokémon, the game will notify the player by showing an entry animation that is similar to [[Shiny Pokémon]], that has its own sound and green and yellow diamond lights. This animation will be overwritten if it becomes a star at [[Pokéstar Studios]]. The flavor text will read "A wild <Pokémon> appeared?!". Upon being captured, the game will notify the player that the Pokémon already has an [[original Trainer]], before putting it in the player's party or [[PC]] storage. Once captured, the Pokémon will have N's [[Trainer ID|ID number]], 00002, and thus gains the boosted experience that traded Pokémon do. These Pokémon cannot be nicknamed. N's Pokémon have a set nature and have {{IV}}s of 30 in every stat, and have maximum [[friendship]] when captured. They are coded to never be Shiny. While there is only one of each Pokémon, if the Pokémon faints or the battle is otherwise ended without the Pokémon being caught, it can be encountered again.

==Trivia==
* Because N's Pokémon have [[individual values]] of 30 in each stat, if they are taught {{m|Hidden Power}}, then it will always result in a {{type|Fighting}} move with a base power of 70.
* Some of N's Pokémon may contradict themselves from {{game|Black and White|s}}, as in Black and White, their [[Ability|Abilities]] were set.
* Unlike the other Pokémon, N did not use {{p|Woobat}}, {{p|Darmanitan}}, or {{TP|N|Zorua}} in his battles with the player in Black and White. Instead, these are the Pokémon featured beside a young N in those games' introduction video.
* Only N's {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W2}} is not categorized as one of N's Pokémon.
* Starting in {{g|Sword and Shield}}, N's Pokémon can be nicknamed in the same way an [[outsider Pokémon]] can.

'''Dark City''' (Japanese: '''ダークシティ''' ''Dark City'') is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive location in [[Kanto]] found in between the {{safari|Kanto}} and [[Cinnabar Island]].

The city does not have an official [[Gym]], but two rival Gyms seek the wealth and glory that comes with having one. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive in ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', the city was shown to be in disrepair because of the constant warfare from the competing Gyms. The residents of this town detest and fear Pokémon Trainers. A local restaurant owner stated that the Kaz Gym hadn't paid for food in over two years.

The leaders' main Pokémon for the {{DL|Gym|Yas Gym}} and {{DL|Gym|Kaz Gym}} are {{p|Scyther}} and {{p|Electabuzz}} respectively. For this reason, their followers do not appear to join for personal connection with a particular type of Pokémon, unlike in most Gyms, and the actions of [[Yas]] and [[Kaz]] appear to intimidate and recruit Trainers into joining their Gym, lest they join the rival Gym.

After [[Nurse Joy|an agent]] for the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency]] determined that neither Gym was worthy of being an official Gym due to using Pokémon as gang tools, the two rivals agreed to stop their street fighting and work together to reconstruct Dark City.

'''Dot''' (Japanese: '''ドット''' ''Dot'') is a supporting character in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. She is a skilled programmer and a member of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Online, she is known as '''Nidothing''' (Japanese: '''ぐるみん''' ''Gurumin''), a popular streamer that makes videos on various topics of the [[Pokémon world]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Dot and Friede.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot meeting Friede for the first time]]
Dot grew up with her mother, [[Blanca]], and has come to know her uncle, [[Murdock]].

Prior to ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', before becoming a popular content creator, Dot was a fan of [[Iono]], which inspired her to become a video streamer, Nidothing. After this, Dot's video channel on the internet became a hit among Trainers.

As revealed in [[HZ041]], prior to boarding the [[Brave Olivine]], Dot struggled to find inspiration for her Nidothing videos, as she lacked the personal experience needed to properly discuss the topics she covered. One day, she met [[Friede]], a [[Pokémon Professor]] and friend of Murdock. Knowing about Dot's technical prowess, Friede asked if she could develop an app for his band of adventurers, the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Dot initially refused, but after receiving advice from Iono to go out and see the world, she decided to join Friede's group on their adventures. She was allowed to board the ship with the condition that Dot would return home if her mother felt she had been away from home for too long, with Murdock looking after her.

After becoming a member, Dot used her genius computer skills to create the Brave Olivine's technology system and created the [[Pokédex]] system used by members of the Rising Volt Tacklers. Dot also befriended a {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} that lived on the Brave Olivine. Eventually, she formed a friendship with Iono, whom she refers to as (Japanese: '''ナンジャモお姉さん''' ''Big sister Nanjyamo'').

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Dot and Ludlow picnic.png|250px|thumb|right|Dot and Ludlow having fun on a picnic]]
Dot first appeared in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part One]]'', taking part in several videos alongside Quaxly in her Nidothing costume.

She debuted as herself in ''[[HZ007|Special Training with Cap!]]'', where it was revealed she was part of the Rising Volt Tacklers as well as [[Murdock]]'s niece. [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] went to Dot's room hoping to gather information on the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}'s whereabouts, only to receive a drawing of Roy losing a battle. Later, after seeing Liko and Roy's dedication to becoming better Trainers, Dot gave them another drawing indicating that Rayquaza was in the [[Paldea]] [[region]].

In the following [[HZ008|episode]], while Liko came to visit after Dot rebuffed her for her share of the food, Liko heard Nidothing's video theme from behind Dot's door and assumed Dot also enjoyed watching Nidothing's livestreams. Liko attempted to invite Dot to watch the livestream together, but was caught off guard upon hearing Dot abruptly shouting about something, leaving Liko confused. Liko told her how much she admires Nidothing, how knowledgeable she was about Pokémon, and how fun it was to watch her. Afterwards, while Liko was watching her video in real time, Dot read her comment, which made Liko flustered that someone she admired was reading her comment. The comment shared a similar description of Dot's personality, making Dot feel awkward. During the day, Murdock tried to get Dot out of her room by placing a tray of his donuts in a cabinet. Later that night, Dot, having been touched by Liko's kindness, sneaked into the kitchen and grabbed them for herself and Quaxly, making Murdock happy that his plan was successful.

In ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'', as soon as Liko arrived in [[Paldea]], Dot began to open up a little more to her. Following [[Ludlow]]'s advice, Dot left an illustration on Liko's bedroom door and when she thanked her, Dot said on the other side that she would wait for her. Accidentally, Liko saw Dot laundering her Nidothing costume while on her way to her house to approach {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} again. However, in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', while Dot was trying to tell Liko the truth, Liko revealed that she just thought that Dot was just a Nidothing fan, leaving Liko without actually knowing the Nidothing's real identity.

In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', as Dot was in progress of making a new video about [[Picnic|picnics]], she didn't have any idea on what to talk about, as she'd never been in a picnic before. After receiving a message from Liko, that she could make her own sandwich in the meeting room, causing Dot's stomach to growl. She decided to leave her room and to her surprise, she found table of [[sandwich]] [[ingredient]]s that she could use, though she didn't know how to make one. Ludlow explained to Dot that Liko wanted to share fun experiences with her to help build a better friendship. Considering Ludlow's words and with the help of her fellow members, she was able to create a video about picnicking. Afterwards, as thanks, Dot sent Liko a message of her wearing her Nidothing costume alongside with Quaxly and Ludlow, but Liko once again failed to make the connection. Ludlow and Friede decided to let Dot be the one to decide when to actually explain the truth to Liko.

[[File:Dot and Iono.png|thumb|250px|Dot and Iono interacting with each other]]
In ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', Dot was tasked to find information on the whereabouts to where Liko is located. Initially, Dot informed the Rising Volt Tacklers that Liko had been seen in [[Artazon]]. Unfortunately, they were unable to find her, due to getting tricked by false information. Urgently Dot contacted [[Iono]] for help and, using her live show to her advantage, she started to find Liko: Iono unexpectedly started a game of tag to search for the girl, which Dot was not expecting that to happen, disconnecting as the live show was still continuing. As the Rising Volt Tacklers were leaving, she requested Friede to bring her to [[Levincia]] as well. After landing in town, Roy was the first to see her in person, acknowledging her as Dot, seeing how friendly Quaxly was towards her. Using the information from participants of the game started by Iono, Dot and Roy were able to find Liko. Though, when first meeting face to face, Liko didn't know who Dot was, not until she introduced herself, leaving Liko surprised. Iono arrived to find both Roy and Liko on top of the building, as Dot leaves and hid to play the role of Nidothing. After all that, it left Dot exhausted from being outside.

[[File:Liko Roy Dot Paldean first partners.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot and her friends battling the Explorers]]
In the [[HZ016|next episode]], Dot caught Quaxly as her first Pokémon and partner. Dot went with Liko and Roy to look around Levincia to find the pendant until the ancient {{i|Poké Ball}} that holds {{p|Arboliva}} led them to where [[Spinel]] was. After finding Spinel's location, Dot participated in her first official Pokémon battle with her friends. Once Liko recovered the pendant, Dot and her friends made their escape through Arboliva. Later, through Quaxly's encouragement, Dot revealed to Liko that she was Nidothing, much to her shock.

In ''[[HZ018|Flying Pikachu, Rising Higher and Higher!]]'', Dot and her friends got curious as to how [[Captain Pikachu]] was able to fly during his battle against Roy in the [[HZ017|previous episode]]. Although they asked Friede for answers, they couldn't get the information they wanted. However, Dot and her friends refused to give up as they decided to ask the rest of the members, but could't get an answer from them either. Despite this, Dot and her friends curiosity did get the rest of the members curious as well. They all decided to ask Friede for answers, as they were able to convince him into telling them as to how he met Captain Pikachu and the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In [[HZ027]], a series of information that Dot collected led her to arrange a meeting with someone in the [[Wild Area]] in [[Galar]]. When she got there, she discovered that it was false information, despite this, Liko and the other Rising Volt Tacklers decided to camp there and prepare [[curry]]. Trying to get Dot in at all times, Liko managed to convince her to participate in the preparation of the food. At the end of the day, Dot thanked Liko for doing this.

In [[HZ031]], Dot joined her friends and Ludlow in finding a {{p|Lapras}}, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon. Fortunately, Dot, Liko, Roy, and Ludlow were able to find Lapras, but they failed to get it to come out, as it was covered by a {{m|Mist}} and two Pokémon appeared on the ship. Fortunately, Dot got a shot of a shadow in the Mist, which helped Friede devised a plan to get Lapras back. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Dot connoted to help the group in searching for Lapras, which she was able to do.

In [[HZ034]], Dot was editing a Nidothing video when she got a call from Iono. However, their call was interrupted by Liko and Roy's arrival in her room. After being informed of {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}'s departure, Dot attended a surprise party they planed for her, as they wanted to give her a proper farewell. Once they bid farewell to Diana, the Rising Volt Tacklers resumed their search for the remaining Six Heroes. However, Dot was informed by Friede that they were returning to Paldea first in order to gain information on {{an|Terapagos}}.
[[File:Dot and Blanca.png|250px|thumb|right|Dot and Blanca]]
In [[HZ036]], Dot asked Liko and Roy to assist her with a request she received from a Nidothing fan named [[Yuno]] in [[Pigton Town]]. Yuno explained that she was struggling to find a suitable partner for her {{p|Oinkologne}} to team up with in the upcoming [[Pigton Town Tag Battle‎‎]]. To Yuno's frustration, her Oinkologne had feelings for another Oinkologne owned by her childhood friend, [[Renta]]. With help from Quaxly, Dot and the others managed to get Yuno and Renta to work together and compete in the tournament, which they ended up winning.

In [[HZ039]], Dot's microphone broke down during a Nidothing livestream. She, Liko, and Roy went on a trip to [[Tetsuron Town]], where she purchased a replacement microphone and a another use as a prop. After getting separated from the others, Dot came across a wild {{p|Tinkatink}} failing to take a man's hammer. To Dot's surprise, Tinkatink stole the prop microphone and immediately began working it into a new hammer. Later, Tinkatink climbed aboard the Brave Olivine in order to show Dot the hammer it made, only to be blamed for destroying the ship's supply of iron materials. The true culprit was a wild {{p|Orthworm}}, which Dot managed to defeat and drive off with Quaxly and Tinkatink's help. Upon realizing that Tinkatink wanted to stay with her, Dot accepted her wish and used a {{i|Poké Ball}} Quaxly gave her to catch her. Later, Dot introduced Tinkatink to her viewers in a livestream, only to nearly have her identity exposed when Tinkatink tried to steal the zipper off her Nidothing costume.

In [[HZ041]], Dot's mother [[Blanca]] came aboard the Brave Olivine, intending to take Dot home with her. Worried for how Dot felt about the situation, Liko and Roy asked her to tell them about how she came aboard the Brave Olivine. Later, when Blanca realized her daughter had become a Trainer, she challenged Dot to a battle, much to the latter's confusion. During their battle, Dot conveyed to Blanca how much she had grown as a person after joining the Rising Volt Tacklers. Her determination to win allowed Quaxly to learn {{m|Low Kick}} and defeat Blanca's {{p|Lycanroc}}. Afterward, Dot asked if she could end the trial period and become a permanent member of the Rising Volt Tacklers, which Blanca readily agreed to.

===Character===
[[File:Dot eyes.png|250px|thumb|Dot with her hair up]]
As an influencer and a video distributor, it is Nidothing's job to entertain young aspiring Trainers. Within the videos, she is seen as perky, using exaggerated teaching methods, and giving a beginner's guide to Trainers interested in starting their own {{pkmn|journey}}. However, after becoming a Pokémon Trainer herself in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Dot got a taste of Pokémon battles, which she found enjoyable. Dot also uses the experiences she gained from being a Trainer as inspiration for her videos, as seen in [[HZ026]], when she attempted to make a video about [[Multi Battle]], but was interrupted by {{an|Terapagos}}, although she did finish making the video in the [[HZ027|next episode]].

As Nidothing, she always starts her videos or livestreams with the catchphrase, '''''What's up!''''' (Japanese: '''よぉーっす！''' ''Yoo-su!''). Her Japanese catchphrase is a combination of the common English slang "yo" and part of {{p|Quaxly}}'s Japanese name. Outside of being a streamer, Dot seems to be reclusive and spends most of her time behind doors creating videos, and is rarely seen by the other [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] members. Rather than having herself talk to [[Roy]] and [[Liko]], she used {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} as a messenger to communicate with them. Due to her shyness, having lunch with the other members is bothersome to her. However, after being touched by Liko's kindness, Dot opens up a bit, as seen in ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens!]]'' when she sneaked out of her room to grab the donuts [[Murdock]] made for her and Quaxly. This was shown again in the [[HZ009|next episode]], where Dot took [[Ludlow]] advice to the heart, as she realized that she and Liko do have some similarities, even leaving a drawing for her at her room.
[[File:Roy Liko Dot.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot and her friends]]
Dot eventually grew to consider Liko a friend, as seen in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', when she was surprised that she wanted to share experiences with her by giving her and Ludlow their own picnic to enjoy on the [[Brave Olivine]]. Dot also went out of her way to look for Liko when she went missing in ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', as she left her room and the Brave Olivine to find her. At first, Dot found Roy annoying, but was intrigued that he had a rare {{i|Poké Ball}} that had a Black Rayquaza inside it. However, after teaming up with him in looking for Liko and battling against the [[Explorers]], Dot warmed up to Roy and came to see him as a friend. Dot also watched Roy's second battle against [[Friede]] in ''[[HZ017|Special Training Time!]]''.

Dot tends to get easily nervous or anxious on a tight schedule, or frustrated when she sees a comment on one of her videos she doesn't like. Dot is also shown to grow increasingly afraid and conflicted about any of her fans finding out that she's Nidothing. However, Dot does show guilt for her unwelcoming attitude towards others, deciding to read Liko's comment as Nidothing during said livestream to make up for turning her down. Despite not wanting others to know the truth, Dot does bring herself to make an attempt to confess to Liko that she is Nidothing after gradually warming up to her, as seen in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]''. However, after being encouraged by Quaxly, Dot fully tells Liko the truth about being Nidothing in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]''. Dot even told Roy that she is Nidothing, as she came to trust him to know the truth about her influencer and a video distributor identity.

Dot dislikes being misled, as seen in ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', when she found out that the information she got about Liko's whereabouts were false. This was shown again in [[HZ027]], when she got misled in getting information about the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}. Although she still spends most of her time in her room, Dot seems to be more open in leaving it and interacting with others. Dot also seems to be comfortable in letting Liko and Roy in her room. In addition, Dot seems to be interacting with the rest of her teammates and Murdock a little bit more, as she is starting to open up to them.

She appears to be tomboyish in appearance. In Japanese, she uses the {{wp|Japanese pronouns|first-person personal pronoun}} {{tt|僕|ぼく}} ''boku'', a pronoun which is primarily used by males; when used by females, it is associated with tomboys.

===Pokémon===
[[File:Dot team.png|thumb|250px|Dot and her Pokémon]]
Dot's team consists of Pokémon who are the opposite of her in personality, as they have shown the traits that their Trainer doesn't usually show. Also, Dot's Pokémon have shown to have an influence on others, especially to their Trainer, such as her Quaxly's outgoing personality and her Tinkatink's determination to go for what you really want.

After discovering the true culprit was a wild {{p|Orthworm}}, Tinkatink teamed up with Dot and {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} to drive it away. Afterward, Tinkatink expressed her desire to stay with Dot, which the latter accepted. Dot then introduced Tinkatink to her online audience in a Nidothing video.

None of Tinkatink's moves are known.}}

==Plot==
The episode begins with [[Dot]] following {{p|Tinkatink}} around the [[Brave Olivine]]. As the Metalsmith Pokémon arrives at the kitchen door, Dot gets a text from someone, but decides to ignore it to focus on Tinkatink. [[Murdock]] opens the door, letting Tinkatink in to Dot's dismay. [[Friede]] and {{TP|Friede|Charizard}} pick up the one who contacted Dot. She is annoyed that Dot read the message but ignored it. Murdock chases Tinkatink around the kitchen trying to get his frying pan back from her. They all run out of the kitchen, Murdock leaving his [[Rotom Phone]] in there as texts from the same person come in. Annoyed by not receiving her regular report, the person sends Murdock several angry {{p|Primeape}} faces. The chase continues outside the observation deck, [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] chasing Tinkatink too. They all spot her on the wing deck, running into {{an|Terapagos}} and being send flying.

Luckly when Friede arrives, Tinkatink is caught by the Midnight Form {{p|Lycanroc}} belonging to the person sending all those texts, who Murdock knows as his sister [[Blanca]], and Dot knows as her mom which surprises Liko and Roy. Blanca claims that she is just popping in, and scolds Murdock and Dot for not responding to her texts. She explains to Murdock that his check-ins have been getting more and more brief so she decided to swing by in person. Blanca says that Friede was kind enough to give her a ride and as she goes on about how smooth Charizard's skin is, Lycanroc stops her from going off topic, something she often tends to do. After introducing the Wolf Pokémon, Bianca wonders what she was talking about, to Dot and Murdock's annoyance. She remembers that she came to pick up Dot since her "trial period" is over. Blanca tells Liko and Roy that Dot is only on the Brave Olivine as a trial, and as she turns to Dot, she is not there. Blanca doesn't sweat it, saying that she and her daughter can catch up when they're home, to Roy and Liko's shock.

As Dot heads to her room and lays down on the bed, Murdock apologizes for his little sister's brand of energy. This prompts Blanca to start talking up a storm again, only for Lycanroc to cut her off. Murdock knows how Blanca has never stopped worrying about her daughter, Friede remarking how much bigger of a worrywart she is than Murdock. However, Dot can't really match her mother's energy, apart from when she's streaming. Blanca becomes intrigued by hearing that's what she was always doing whenever she was cooped up in her room, Roy remarking how she does that at her own home too. Blanca tells the group how Dot got super mad at her for barging into her room one time. Roy thinks that Nidothing was in the middle of a livestream. Blanca has never heard of this Nidothing character. Liko suddenly remembers that she caught that stream live, becoming excited to meet the "mom" from that livestream. Blanca decides to look up Nidothing on her phone. Seeing how popular her daughter is as this costumed streamer, she goes to ask her about it herself. Seeing how Murdock can't stop her, he shows Blanca some donuts for Dot, as it is one way she will open up more. He hands them to {{p|Maushold}} (who have been doing kind things for the Rising Volt Tacklers since they saving them from that cave-in a while ago) to take to his niece. Blanca decides to go ask Dot about that too. However, Liko and Roy want to talk to Dot instead. As they exit the room, Blanca is moved to tears by her daughter having made such great friends.

At Dot's door, Liko and Roy request to hear her side of the story, and about her "trial period". They don't want their friend to leave the crew like this. Roy tells Liko that maybe today's no a good time and that they should head back. {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} points to the door, and Dot opens it thinking they're gone. It's only after seeing that Liko and Roy fooled her with reverse psychology that Dot finally tells them everything. She says that the trial period was her idea, having felt like she wasn't getting anywhere being stuck in her house all the time. While scrolling through options, Dot suddenly spots a thesis by Friede about the {{t|Grass}} Type Pokémon he's met on one of his expeditions. The internet was always a reliable source, but the reason behind it was that it came from those speaking from actual experience. Dot tried to gather as much info as she could for her Nidothing videos. But something about it just didn't feel right. Going to get something to eat before watching [[Iono]]'s livestream, Dot became shocked to see Friede in her living room, claiming he's friends with her uncle. He asked Dot to fix his Rotom Phone, having heard from Murdock that she's good with this kind of thing. Dot was surprised to see the thesis she ran into earlier, realizing that this man was the same professor. After Dot fixed Friede's phone, he requested that she makes a Rising Volt Tacklers app. Dot said that she'll need time to get it underway. Friede complimented Dot on her talent with technology, and while she claims that it's just something she taught herself because she liked it, Friede saw this as a true testament to a bright future for her as a Rising Volt Tackler. Dot shrugged off this offer, claiming that she can't make an app for them after all, but Friede knew differently. Dot got to Iono's livestream, right as it was about to start. Iono read Dot's comment, which asked her if she ever hit a wall, and she immediately agreed. She said that sitting and waiting will never get you over that wall. She then stated that she would have her studio grow wings and fly all over. Later, as Blanca called from behind Dot's door, she looked outside to see the Brave Olivine taking off, thinking about Iono and Friede's words.

Dot tells Liko and Roy that she made the app and joined the crew by convincing her mom that it was a trial period. Blanca agreed on the grounds that she could stay until her period was over. Blanca enters, surprised that Dot is out of her room. Liko tells her that she came to pick up Dot, and Blanca is quick to admit it herself. Blanca then confronts Dot saying that she never tells her anything. Dot tells Liko and Roy that she made the app and joined the crew by convincing her mom that it was a trial period. Blanca agreed on the grounds that she could stay until her period was over. Blanca enters, surprised that Dot is out of her room. Liko tells her that she came to pick up Dot, and Blanca is quick to admit it herself. Blanca then confronts Dot saying that she never tells her anything. Dot calls her annoying under her breath, to which Blanca knows she's that way but she's her mother. As Lycanroc is about to cut her off again, Liko chimes in, wanting Dot to find the time to talk. As Blanca wonders what to do, she sees Quaxly and realizes that Dot became a trainer, challenging her to a battle.

Everyone gathers on the wind deck to watch the Pokémon battle between mother and daughter. Blanca says that battles speak just as loud as words, so Dot will be able to express how she feels. Dot thinks that the idea of battling her mom is pointless, but at the same time feels like she shouldn't run away. With that, both trainers pull their hair back, and the battle begins. Quaxly starts with {{m|Water GUn}}. As Lycanroc dodges Quaxly's back-to-back Water Guns, Blanca says that Murdock shares how even on the ship she is cooped up in her room. While Dot admits that she's not wrong, she shares how she has made friends and gotten to enjoy the outside world. Blanca asks Dot why she became a Pokemon trainer, which she wasn't interested in before. Dot tells her that ever since meeting Quaxly, and later Tinkatink, it felt more exciting to be a trainer. Lycanroc closes in, prompting Quaxly to strike with a close-range {{m|Pound}}. Lycanroc takes the hit and nearly knocks Quaxly overboard with {{m|Counter}}, Dot catching him just in time. Dot tells her mother that she can do everything that was out of reach from her in her room, which Blanca is excited to hear. Quaxly's Water Gun and Lycanroc's {{m|Rock Throw}} collide. Quaxly charges at Lycanroc, who blows him back with Counter again. Dot wonders if this was hopeless from the start, but, as a trainer, decides to work less like an individual and more like a unit. Dot has Quaxly aim for Lycanroc's legs with Pound. Lycanroc takes Pound, but this time, Quaxly dodges Counter and knocks it off it's feet with a powerful kick. Dot is surprised as Quaxly blows Lycanroc back with another kick. Murdock catches Lycanroc, who is knocked out from Quaxly's new {{m|Low Kick}}. As Tinkatink and Quaxly celebrate, Dot requests that Blanca lets her stay with the Rising Volt Tacklers. Blanca is moved to tears, having just that be what she wanted Dot to say. With that, Blanca lets her daughter stay on the ship with her friends, which relieves Liko and Roy.

'''Dot''' (Japanese: '''ドット''' ''Dot'') is a supporting character in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. She is a skilled programmer and a member of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Online, she is known as '''Nidothing''' (Japanese: '''ぐるみん''' ''Gurumin''), a popular streamer that makes videos on various topics of the [[Pokémon world]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
Dot is a computer genius that was responsible for [[Brave Olivine]]'s technology system and created the [[Pokédex]] system used by members of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], as she joined the group with her uncle [[Murdock]] looking after her. Dot also befriended a {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} that lived on the Brave Olivine.

Prior to ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', before becoming a popular content creator, Dot was a fan of [[Iono]]. Eventually, she formed a friendship with her and was inspired into becoming who she is currently, Nidothing. Dot refers her as (Japanese: '''ナンジャモお姉さん''' ''Big sister Nanjyamo''). After becoming Nidothing, Dot's video channel on the internet became a hit among Trainers.

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Nidothing without costume.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot briefly seen without her costume]]
Dot first appeared in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part One]]'', taking part in several videos alongside Quaxly in her Nidothing costume.

She debuted as herself in ''[[HZ007|Special Training with Cap!]]'', where it was revealed she was part of the Rising Volt Tacklers as well as [[Murdock]]'s niece. [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] went to Dot's room hoping to gather information on the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}'s whereabouts, only to receive a drawing of Roy losing a battle. Later, after seeing Liko and Roy's dedication to becoming better Trainers, Dot gave them another drawing indicating that Rayquaza was in the [[Paldea]] [[region]].

In the following [[HZ008|episode]], while Liko came to visit after Dot rebuffed her for her share of the food, Liko heard Nidothing's video theme from behind Dot's door and assumed Dot also enjoyed watching Nidothing's livestreams. Liko attempted to invite Dot to watch the livestream together, but was caught off guard upon hearing Dot abruptly shouting about something, leaving Liko confused. Liko told her how much she admires Nidothing, how knowledgeable she was about Pokémon, and how fun it was to watch her. Afterwards, while Liko was watching her video in real time, Dot read her comment, which made Liko flustered that someone she admired was reading her comment. The comment shared a similar description of Dot's personality, making Dot feel awkward. During the day, Murdock tried to get Dot out of her room by placing a tray of his donuts in a cabinet. Later that night, Dot, having been touched by Liko's kindness, sneaked into the kitchen and grabbed them for herself and Quaxly, making Murdock happy that his plan was successful.

[[File:Dot and Ludlow picnic.png|250px|thumb|Dot and Ludlow having fun on a picnic]]
In ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'', as soon as Liko arrived in [[Paldea]], Dot began to open up a little more to her. Following [[Ludlow]]'s advice, Dot left an illustration on Liko's bedroom door and when she thanked her, Dot said on the other side that she would wait for her. Accidentally, Liko saw Dot laundering her Nidothing costume while on her way to her house to approach {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} again. However, in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', while Dot was trying to tell Liko the truth, Liko revealed that she just thought that Dot was just a Nidothing fan, leaving Liko without actually knowing the Nidothing's real identity.

In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', as Dot was in progress of making a new video about [[Picnic|picnics]], she didn't have any idea on what to talk about, as she'd never been in a picnic before. After receiving a message from Liko, that she could make her own sandwich in the meeting room, causing Dot's stomach to growl. She decided to leave her room and to her surprise, she found table of [[sandwich]] [[ingredient]]s that she could use, though she didn't know how to make one. Ludlow explained to Dot that Liko wanted to share fun experiences with her to help build a better friendship. Considering Ludlow's words and with the help of her fellow members, she was able to create a video about picnicking. Afterwards, as thanks, Dot sent Liko a message of her wearing her Nidothing costume alongside with Quaxly and Ludlow, but Liko once again failed to make the connection. Ludlow and [[Friede]] decided to let Dot be the one to decide when to actually explain the truth to Liko.

[[File:Dot and Iono.png|thumb|left|250px|Dot and Iono interacting with each other]]
In ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', Dot was tasked to find information on the whereabouts to where Liko is located. Initially, Dot informed the Rising Volt Tacklers that Liko had been seen in [[Artazon]]. Unfortunately, they were unable to find her, due to getting tricked by false information. Urgently Dot contacted [[Iono]] for help and, using her live show to her advantage, she started to find Liko: Iono unexpectedly started a game of tag to search for the girl, which Dot was not expecting that to happen, disconnecting as the live show was still continuing. As the Rising Volt Tacklers were leaving, she requested Friede to bring her to [[Levincia]] as well. After landing in town, Roy was the first to see her in person, acknowledging her as Dot, seeing how friendly Quaxly was towards her. Using the information from participants of the game started by Iono, Dot and Roy were able to find Liko. Though, when first meeting face to face, Liko didn't know who Dot was, not until she introduced herself, leaving Liko surprised. Iono arrived to find both Roy and Liko on top of the building, as Dot leaves and hid to play the role of Nidothing. After all that, it left Dot exhausted from being outside.

[[File:Liko Roy Dot Paldean Starters.png|250px|thumb|Dot and her friends battling the Explorers]]
In the [[HZ016|next episode]], Dot caught Quaxly as her first Pokémon and partner. Dot went with Liko and Roy to look around Levincia to find the pendant until the ancient {{i|Poké Ball}} that holds {{p|Arboliva}} led them to where [[Spinel]] was. After finding Spinel's location, Dot participated in her first official Pokémon battle with her friends. Once Liko recovered the pendant, Dot and her friends made their escape through Arboliva. Later, through Quaxly's encouragement, Dot revealed to Liko that she was Nidothing, much to her shock.

In [[HZ018]], Dot and her friends got curious as to how [[Captain Pikachu]] was able to fly during his battle against Roy in the [[HZ017|previous episode]]. Although they asked Friede for answers, they couldn't get the information they wanted. However, Dot and her friends refused to give up as they decided to ask the rest of the members, but could't get an answer from them either. Despite this, Dot and her friends curiosity did get the rest of the members curious as well. They all decided to ask Friede for answers, as they were able to convince him into telling them as to how he met Captain Pikachu and the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In [[HZ027]], a series of information that Dot collected led her to arrange a meeting with someone in the [[Wild Area]] in [[Galar]]. When she got there, she discovered that it was false information, despite this, Liko and the other Rising Volt Tacklers decided to camp there and prepare [[curry]]. Trying to get Dot in at all times, Liko managed to convince her to participate in the preparation of the food. At the end of the day, Dot thanked Liko for doing this.

In [[HZ031]], Dot joined her friends and Ludlow in finding a {{p|Lapras}}, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon. Fortunately, Dot, Liko, Roy, and Ludlow were able to find Lapras, but they failed to get it to come out, as it was covered by a {{m|Mist}} and two Pokémon appeared on the ship. Fortunately, Dot got a shot of a shadow in the Mist, which helped Friede devised a plan to get Lapras back. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Dot connoted to help the group in searching for Lapras, which she was able to do.

In [[HZ034]], Dot was editing a Nidothing video when she got a call from Iono. However, their call was interrupted by Liko and Roy's arrival in her room. After being informed of {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}'s departure, Dot attended a surprise party they planed for her, as they wanted to give her a proper farewell. Once they bid farewell to Diana, the Rising Volt Tacklers resumed their search for the remaining Six Heroes. However, Dot was informed by Friede that they were returning to Paldea first in order to gain information on {{an|Terapagos}}.

In [[HZ036]], Dot was asked by a fan of Nidothing named [[Yuno]] for help in solving her Pokémon's personality issues. Dot had Liko and Roy join Quaxly in helping Yuno. Upon arriving, Dot, Liko, and Roy found out that Yuno is trying to find a partner to team up with her for the [[Pigton Town Tag Battle‎‎]], but her partner Pokémon {{p|Oinkologne}} was in love with another Oinkologne, who was owned by [[Renta]]. Through their teamwork, the three friends were able to help solve the problem and the two Trainers ultimately decided to be partners for the tournament, which they ended up winning. Dot then interviewed Yuno as Nidothing, but it got cut short when she became confused about her feelings for Renta.

===Character===
[[File:Dot eyes.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot with her hair up]]
As an influencer and a video distributor, it is Nidothing's job to entertain young aspiring Trainers. Within the videos, she is seen as perky, using exaggerated teaching methods, and giving a beginner's guide to Trainers interested in starting their own {{pkmn|journey}}. However, after becoming a Pokémon Trainer herself in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Dot got a taste of Pokémon battles, which she found enjoyable. Dot also uses the experiences she gained from being a Trainer as inspiration for her videos, as seen in [[HZ026]], when she attempted to make a video about [[Multi Battle]], but was interrupted by {{an|Terapagos}}, although she did finish making the video in the [[HZ027|next episode]].

As Nidothing, she always starts her videos or livestreams with the catchphrase, (Japanese: '''よぉーっす！''' ''Yoo-su!''). It's a combination of the common English slang "yo" and part of {{p|Quaxly}}'s Japanese name. Outside of being a streamer, Dot seems to be reclusive and spends most of her time behind doors creating videos, and is rarely seen by the other [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] members. Rather than having herself talk to [[Roy]] and [[Liko]], she used {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} as a messenger to communicate with them. Due to her shyness, having lunch with the other members is bothersome to her. However, after being touched by Liko's kindness, Dot opens up a bit, as seen in ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens!]]'' when she sneaked out of her room to grab the donuts [[Murdock]] made for her and Quaxly. This was shown again in the [[HZ009|next episode]], where Dot took [[Ludlow]] advice to the heart, as she realized that she and Liko do have some similarities, even leaving a drawing for her at her room.
[[File:Roy Liko Dot.png|250px|thumb|Dot and her friends]]
Dot eventually grew to consider Liko a friend, as seen in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', when she was surprised that she wanted to share experiences with her by giving her and Ludlow their own picnic to enjoy on the [[Brave Olivine]]. Dot also went out of her way to look for Liko when she went missing in ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', as she left her room and the Brave Olivine to find her. At first, Dot found Roy annoying, but was intrigued that he had a rare {{i|Poké Ball}} that had a Black Rayquaza inside it. However, after teaming up with him in looking for Liko and battling against the [[Explorers]], Dot warmed up to Roy and came to see him as a friend. Dot also watched Roy's second battle against [[Friede]] in [[HZ017]].

Dot tends to get easily nervous or anxious on a tight schedule, or frustrated when she sees a comment on one of her videos she doesn't like. Dot is also shown to grow increasingly afraid and conflicted about any of her fans finding out that she's Nidothing. However, Dot does show guilt for her unwelcoming attitude towards others, deciding to read Liko's comment as Nidothing during said livestream to make up for turning her down. Despite not wanting others to know the truth, Dot does bring herself to make an attempt to confess to Liko that she is Nidothing after gradually warming up to her, as seen in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]''. However, after being encouraged by Quaxly, Dot fully tells Liko the truth about being Nidothing in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]''. Dot even told Roy that she is Nidothing, as she came to trust him to know the truth about her influencer and a video distributor identity.

Dot dislikes being misled, as seen in ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', when she found out that the information she got about Liko's whereabouts were false. This was shown again in [[HZ027]], when she got misled in getting information about the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}. Although she still spends most of her time in her room, Dot seems to be more open in leaving it and interacting with others. Dot also seems to be comfortable in letting Liko and Roy in her room. In addition, Dot seems to be interacting with the rest of her teammates and Murdock a little bit more, as she is starting to open up to them.

She appears to be tomboyish in appearance. In Japanese, she uses the {{wp|Japanese pronouns|first-person personal pronoun}} {{tt|僕|ぼく}} ''boku'', a pronoun which is primarily used by males; when used by females, it is associated with tomboys.

'''Dot''' (Japanese: '''ドット''' ''Dot'') is a supporting character in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. She is a skilled programmer and a member of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Online, she is known as '''Nidothing''' (Japanese: '''ぐるみん''' ''Gurumin''), a popular streamer that makes videos on various topics of the [[Pokémon world]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
Dot is a computer genius that was responsible for [[Brave Olivine]]'s technology system and created the [[Pokédex]] system used by members of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], as she joined the group with her uncle [[Murdock]] looking after her. Dot also befriended a {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} that lived on the Brave Olivine.

Prior to ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', before becoming a popular content creator, Dot was a fan of [[Iono]]. Eventually, she formed a friendship with her and was inspired into becoming who she is currently, Nidothing. Dot refers her as (Japanese: '''ナンジャモお姉さん''' ''Big sister Nanjyamo''). After becoming Nidothing, Dot's video channel on the internet became a hit among Trainers.

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Nidothing without costume.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot briefly seen without her costume]]
Dot first appeared in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part One]]'', taking part in several videos alongside Quaxly in her Nidothing costume.

She debuted as herself in ''[[HZ007|Special Training with Cap!]]'', where it was revealed she was part of the Rising Volt Tacklers as well as [[Murdock]]'s niece. [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] went to Dot's room hoping to gather information on the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}'s whereabouts, only to receive a drawing of Roy losing a battle. Later, after seeing Liko and Roy's dedication to becoming better Trainers, Dot gave them another drawing indicating that Rayquaza was in the [[Paldea]] [[region]].

In the following [[HZ008|episode]], while Liko came to visit after Dot rebuffed her for her share of the food, Liko heard Nidothing's video theme from behind Dot's door and assumed Dot also enjoyed watching Nidothing's livestreams. Liko attempted to invite Dot to watch the livestream together, but was caught off guard upon hearing Dot abruptly shouting about something, leaving Liko confused. Liko told her how much she admires Nidothing, how knowledgeable she was about Pokémon, and how fun it was to watch her. Afterwards, while Liko was watching her video in real time, Dot read her comment, which made Liko flustered that someone she admired was reading her comment. The comment shared a similar description of Dot's personality, making Dot feel awkward. During the day, Murdock tried to get Dot out of her room by placing a tray of his donuts in a cabinet. Later that night, Dot, having been touched by Liko's kindness, sneaked into the kitchen and grabbed them for herself and Quaxly, making Murdock happy that his plan was successful.

[[File:Dot and Ludlow picnic.png|250px|thumb|Dot and Ludlow having fun on a picnic]]
In ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'', as soon as Liko arrived in [[Paldea]], Dot began to open up a little more to her. Following [[Ludlow]]'s advice, Dot left an illustration on Liko's bedroom door and when she thanked her, Dot said on the other side that she would wait for her. Accidentally, Liko saw Dot laundering her Nidothing costume while on her way to her house to approach {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} again. However, in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]'', while Dot was trying to tell Liko the truth, Liko revealed that she just thought that Dot was just a Nidothing fan, leaving Liko without actually knowing the Nidothing's real identity.

In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', as Dot was in progress of making a new video about [[Picnic|picnics]], she didn't have any idea on what to talk about, as she'd never been in a picnic before. After receiving a message from Liko, that she could make her own sandwich in the meeting room, causing Dot's stomach to growl. She decided to leave her room and to her surprise, she found table of [[sandwich]] [[ingredient]]s that she could use, though she didn't know how to make one. Ludlow explained to Dot that Liko wanted to share fun experiences with her to help build a better friendship. Considering Ludlow's words and with the help of her fellow members, she was able to create a video about picnicking. Afterwards, as thanks, Dot sent Liko a message of her wearing her Nidothing costume alongside with Quaxly and Ludlow, but Liko once again failed to make the connection. Ludlow and [[Friede]] decided to let Dot be the one to decide when to actually explain the truth to Liko.

[[File:Dot and Iono.png|thumb|left|250px|Dot and Iono interacting with each other]]
In ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', Dot was tasked to find information on the whereabouts to where Liko is located. Initially, Dot informed the Rising Volt Tacklers that Liko had been seen in [[Artazon]]. Unfortunately, they were unable to find her, due to getting tricked by false information. Urgently Dot contacted [[Iono]] for help and, using her live show to her advantage, she started to find Liko: Iono unexpectedly started a game of tag to search for the girl, which Dot was not expecting that to happen, disconnecting as the live show was still continuing. As the Rising Volt Tacklers were leaving, she requested Friede to bring her to [[Levincia]] as well. After landing in town, Roy was the first to see her in person, acknowledging her as Dot, seeing how friendly Quaxly was towards her. Using the information from participants of the game started by Iono, Dot and Roy were able to find Liko. Though, when first meeting face to face, Liko didn't know who Dot was, not until she introduced herself, leaving Liko surprised. Iono arrived to find both Roy and Liko on top of the building, as Dot leaves and hid to play the role of Nidothing. After all that, it left Dot exhausted from being outside.

[[File:Liko Roy Dot Paldean Starters.png|250px|thumb|Dot and her friends battling the Explorers]]
In the [[HZ016|next episode]], Dot caught Quaxly as her first Pokémon and partner. Dot went with Liko and Roy to look around Levincia to find the pendant until the ancient {{i|Poké Ball}} that holds {{p|Arboliva}} led them to where [[Spinel]] was. After finding Spinel's location, Dot participated in her first official Pokémon battle with her friends. Once Liko recovered the pendant, Dot and her friends made their escape through Arboliva. Later, through Quaxly's encouragement, Dot revealed to Liko that she was Nidothing, much to her shock.

In [[HZ018]], Dot and her friends got curious as to how [[Captain Pikachu]] was able to fly during his battle against Roy in the [[HZ017|previous episode]]. Although they asked Friede for answers, they couldn't get the information they wanted. However, Dot and her friends refused to give up as they decided to ask the rest of the members, but could't get an answer from them either. Despite this, Dot and her friends curiosity did get the rest of the members curious as well. They all decided to ask Friede for answers, as they were able to convince him into telling them as to how he met Captain Pikachu and the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In [[HZ027]], a series of information that Dot collected led her to arrange a meeting with someone in the [[Wild Area]] in [[Galar]]. When she got there, she discovered that it was false information, despite this, Liko and the other Rising Volt Tacklers decided to camp there and prepare [[curry]]. Trying to get Dot in at all times, Liko managed to convince her to participate in the preparation of the food. At the end of the day, Dot thanked Liko for doing this.

In [[HZ031]], Dot joined her friends and Ludlow in finding a {{p|Lapras}}, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon. Fortunately, Dot, Liko, Roy, and Ludlow were able to find Lapras, but they failed to get it to come out, as it was covered by a {{m|Mist}} and two Pokémon appeared on the ship. Fortunately, Dot got a shot of a shadow in the Mist, which helped Friede devised a plan to get Lapras back. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Dot connoted to help the group in searching for Lapras, which she was able to do.

In [[HZ034]], Dot was editing a Nidothing video when she got a call from Iono. However, their call was interrupted by Liko and Roy's arrivel in her room. After being informed of {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}'s departure, Dot attended a surprise party they planed for her, as they wanted to give her a proper farewell. Once they bid farewell to Diana, the Rising Volt Tacklers resumed their search for the remaining Six Heroes. However, Dot was informed by Friede that they were returning to Paldea first in order to gain information on {{an|Terapagos}}.

In [[HZ036]], Dot was asked by a fan of Nidothing named [[Yuno]] for help in solving her Pokémon's personality issues. Dot had Liko and Roy join Quaxly in helping Yuno. Upon arriving, Dot, Liko, and Roy found out that Yuno is trying to find a partner to team up with her for the [[Pigton Town Tag Battle‎‎]], but her partner Pokémon {{p|Oinkologne}} was in love with another Oinkologne, who was owned by [[Renta]]. Through their teamwork, the three friends were able to help solve the problem and the two Trainers ultimately decided to be partners for the tournament, which they ended up winning. Dot then interviewed Yuno as Nidothing, but it got cut short when she became confused about her feelings for Renta.

===Character===
[[File:Dot eyes.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot with her hair up]]
As an influencer and a video distributor, it is Nidothing's job to entertain young aspiring Trainers. Within the videos, she is seen as perky, using exaggerated teaching methods, and giving a beginner's guide to Trainers interested in starting their own {{pkmn|journey}}. However, after becoming a Pokémon Trainer herself in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Dot got a taste of Pokémon battles, which she found enjoyable. Dot also uses the experiences she gained from being a Trainer as inspiration for her videos, as seen in [[HZ026]], when she attempted to make a video about [[Multi Battle]], but was interrupted by {{an|Terapagos}}, although she did finish making the video in the [[HZ027|next episode]].

As Nidothing, she always starts her videos or livestreams with the catchphrase, (Japanese: '''よぉーっす！''' ''Yoo-su!''). It's a combination of the common English slang "yo" and part of {{p|Quaxly}}'s Japanese name. Outside of being a streamer, Dot seems to be reclusive and spends most of her time behind doors creating videos, and is rarely seen by the other [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] members. Rather than having herself talk to [[Roy]] and [[Liko]], she used {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} as a messenger to communicate with them. Due to her shyness, having lunch with the other members is bothersome to her. However, after being touched by Liko's kindness, Dot opens up a bit, as seen in ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens!]]'' when she sneaked out of her room to grab the donuts [[Murdock]] made for her and Quaxly. This was shown again in the [[HZ009|next episode]], where Dot took [[Ludlow]] advice to the heart, as she realized that she and Liko do have some similarities, even leaving a drawing for her at her room.
[[File:Roy Liko Dot.png|250px|thumb|Dot and her friends]]
Dot eventually grew to consider Liko a friend, as seen in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', when she was surprised that she wanted to share experiences with her by giving her and Ludlow their own picnic to enjoy on the [[Brave Olivine]]. Dot also went out of her way to look for Liko when she went missing in ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', as she left her room and the Brave Olivine to find her. At first, Dot found Roy annoying, but was intrigued that he had a rare {{i|Poké Ball}} that had a Black Rayquaza inside it. However, after teaming up with him in looking for Liko and battling against the [[Explorers]], Dot warmed up to Roy and came to see him as a friend. Dot also watched Roy's second battle against [[Friede]] in [[HZ017]].

Dot tends to get easily nervous or anxious on a tight schedule, or frustrated when she sees a comment on one of her videos she doesn't like. Dot is also shown to grow increasingly afraid and conflicted about any of her fans finding out that she's Nidothing. However, Dot does show guilt for her unwelcoming attitude towards others, deciding to read Liko's comment as Nidothing during said livestream to make up for turning her down. Despite not wanting others to know the truth, Dot does bring herself to make an attempt to confess to Liko that she is Nidothing after gradually warming up to her, as seen in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]''. However, after being encouraged by Quaxly, Dot fully tells Liko the truth about being Nidothing in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]''. Dot even told Roy that she is Nidothing, as she came to trust him to know the truth about her influencer and a video distributor identity.

Dot dislikes being misled, as seen in ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?!]]'', when she found out that the information she got about Liko's whereabouts were false. This was shown again in [[HZ027]], when she got misled in getting information about the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}. Although she still spends most of her time in her room, Dot seems to be more open in leaving it and interacting with others. Dot also seems to be comfortable in letting Liko and Roy in her room. In addition, Dot seems to be interacting with the rest of her teammates and Murdock a little bit more, as she is starting to open up to them.

She appears to be tomboyish in appearance. In Japanese, she uses the {{wp|Japanese pronouns|first-person personal pronoun}} {{tt|僕|ぼく}} ''boku'', a pronoun which is primarily used by males; when used by females, it is associated with tomboys.

Liko remotely attends [[Indigo Academy]] and is a member of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Young Liko.png|250px|thumb|left|Young Liko]]
Liko grew up in [[Cabo Poco]] in the [[Paldea]] region with her parents, {{OBP|Alex|Horizons}} and [[Lucca]]. Liko also grew up with her grandmother, {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}, hearing stories of the adventures and journeys she went through around the world. From her, Liko eventually received a mysterious pendant. After saying this gift will be important to her in the future, Diana told Liko that she should rely on her Pokémon to be able to venture out and face her fears on her {{pkmn|journey}}.
{{-}}
====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Liko pendant power.png|250px|thumb|Liko awakening the pendant's power for the first time]]
Liko debuted in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part One]]''. She enrolled in the [[Indigo Academy]] at the [[Kanto]] region, where she formed a friendship with her roommate [[Ann]] and received her [[starter Pokémon|partner Pokémon]], a {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}. During the next few days, Liko worked hard to strengthen her bond with Sprigatito by learning more about it and make it listen to her instructions in battle, but to little avail.
One day, a young man named [[Amethio]] introduced himself to her, supposedly as her grandmother's representative, and asked her for the pendant. Quickly distrusting his intentions, Liko attempted to run away from him and [[Zirc|his]] [[Onia|teammates]], but eventually got cornered by the [[Explorers|group]]. However, before any violent confrontation could begin, [[Friede]] swooped in on his {{TP|Friede|Charizard}} and started battling [[Amethio's Ceruledge]]. A stray {{m|Psycho Cut}} nearly hit Liko as she tried to escape, but her pendant activated in time and protected her from the attack.

In the [[HZ002|next episode]], Liko noticed the presence of {{an|Terapagos|a mysterious Pokémon}} during the activation of the pendant's power. After being rescued by Friede, Liko and Sprigatito were taken aboard his airship, the [[Brave Olivine]], where they were introduced to the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Not long after, the ship was attacked by the Explorers, who almost coerced Liko to go with them, had Sprigatito not encouraged her to stand tall. Liko had the Grass Cat Pokémon unleash a {{m|Leafage}} strong enough to break the forcefield around the Wing Deck, but it got blown overboard in the process, which allowed the Explorers to capture it before fleeing.
[[File:Liko Rising Volt Tacklers.png|250px|thumb|left|Liko joining the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]]]
In ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', Liko discovered that [[Lucca|her mother]] had hired the Rising Volt Tacklers to protect her. The group soon reached the city where the Explorers were last seen. After running an errand for [[Mollie]] at the city's [[Pokémon Center]], she followed the sound of [[Murdock]]'s {{p|Rockruff}}'s barking and discovered that Murdock and Friede had found [[Onia]]. She and Friede chased Onia back to the Explorers' hideout, where Friede engaged Amethio in a battle, allowing her and Rockruff to locate Sprigatito. Feeling she could trust them, Liko decided to join the Rising Volt Tacklers in their travels to find out more about the mysteries surrounding her pendant and the Explorers, officially becoming a member of the group.

In ''[[HZ004|The Treasure After the Storm!]]'', it was revealed that Liko had signed up for online classes and would be attending school virtually. After doing some chores, Liko found out that {{p|Fuecoco}} had fallen off the Brave Olivine and went out to look for it. During the search, they came upon an open tree stump with eaten {{Berries}} and were mistakenly accused of eating them by the [[wild Pokémon]]. As they were being chased, Liko's pendant started to glow, and soon they were found by [[Roy]], who helped them escape. The wild Pokémon, however, did not give up on their hunt and succesffully captured them. After being rescued by Friede, Liko and Roy gathered Berries for the wild Pokémon as an apology gift, and she soon waved goodbye to her new friend.
[[File:Rayquaza staring at Liko.png|thumb|250px|Liko meeting Lucius's Rayquaza]]
They did not depart for long, however, as the Rising Volt Tacklers were startled awake [[HZ005|during the middle of the night]] when Roy snuck on the ship and got shocked by [[Captain Pikachu]]. He wanted to see his friend Fuecoco once more, but, despite searching all over the Brave Olivine, couldn't find it. In the next day, the Explorers launched an assault on the Rising Volt Tacklers. Despite her own nervousness, Liko managed to defeat Onia all by herself. As she arrived on the beach, she was assaulted by Amethio's {{p|Corviknight}}, nearly getting hit before [[HZ006|her pendant activated again]], projecting another barrier to protect her. Liko and Roy called Sprigatito and Fuecoco to fight Amethio's Ceruledge, but it proved to be too powerful for them. Then, Liko's pendant and Roy's Ancient [[Poké Ball]] reacted in unison, and from the Poké Ball emerged a {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}. After forcing the Explorers to retreat, Rayquaza briefly stared at Liko before flying away. She decided to keep looking into her pendant's mystery alongside Roy and the Rising Volt Tacklers as they headed off towards [[Paldea]].

In ''[[HZ007|Special Training with Cap!]]'', Liko was challenged by Roy to a battle, but it was called off when their Pokémon tired themselves into a draw. Shortly after, Friede downloaded the Rising Volt Tacklers app on their [[Rotom Phone]]s and suggested they visited [[Dot]] to see if she had any info on the Black Rayquaza, but weren't able to talk to her. Frustrated, they asked Friede for some special training, which he accepted. In order for them to win, they had to land a hit on Captain Pikachu, but, despite figuring out the pattern of his {{m|Double Team}}, weren't able to. After a break, Liko and Roy battled against each other once more—this time, there was a clear winner, as Sprigatito managed to overcome the type disadvantage and defeat Fuecoco. This battle was the first step for the new Rising Volt Tacklers to get closer to Dot, who let them know the Black Rayquaza was in Paldea. Realizing that Dot is just shy around others, like she is, Liko decided to learn more about her in hopes of becoming friends with her.

In the [[HZ008|next episode]], Liko accepted Roy's pleading to watch over the Brave Olivine in his place, as she already was planning to watch a livestream by Nidothing, her favorite content creator. By the time she had done her chores, she decided to bring Dot the lunch that Murdock had prepared for her. Once at her door, Liko faintly heard Nidothing's background music and, assuming Dot to be a Nidothing fan like herself, tried to bond with Dot over this shared intrest, but to no avail. During the livestream, Nidothing—who, unbeknownst to Liko, was actually Dot in a costume—read and responded a comment about the whole situation left by her, who was quick to follow the streamer's advice.

[[File:Liko and Alex.png|thumb|250px|left|Liko and her father]]
In ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'', the Rising Volt Tacklers landed in Paldea. Before heading to her home in [[Cabo Poco]], Liko guided Roy and Friede as they toured around [[Mesagoza]]. After Friede failed to get a hold of her mother, Liko suggested visiting [[Alex (Horizons)|her father]], which quickly made her feel uneasy after realizing that her journey could soon be over. At home, she overheard her father talking to Friede about how he was worrying about her being by herself. After a sleepless night back at the Brave Olivine, and a run-in with a wild {{p|Lechonk}}, she told her father that she still wanted to be a member of the Rising Volt Tacklers and travel the world with them. Her father accepted her wishes and told them about the sightings of a mysterious Pokémon over [[Artazon]]. In the [[HZ010|next episode]], Liko and Roy went to the city, where they met the {{pkmn|Champion}}-ranked {{pkmn|Trainer}} [[Nemona]] and the local {{type|Grass}} [[Gym Leader]] [[Brassius]]. During their time together, they learned that Brassius saw the Black Rayquaza flying over the [[Arboliva Forest]] and decided to make it their next destination.
[[File:Liko and Pokémon.png|thumb|250px|Liko playing with Pokémon during a picnic]]
As [[HZ011|they reached the forest]], Liko and Roy discovered that part of it had burned down after a lightning strike started a wildfire. After looking around, Liko found an injured {{rf|Paldean}} {{p|Wooper}}, but the local wild Pokémon were distrustful of her and took Wooper to a {{pkmn2|giant}} {{p|Arboliva}}, which started attacking Liko and Roy until Mollie had finish treating the Poison Fish Pokémon's injuries. In the [[HZ012|following episode]], Liko led a successful group effort to replant the part of the forest that had burned down. Suddenly, Liko's pendant started to glow and briefly transformed into the mysterious Pokémon again, following which the Arboliva returned to its Ancient Poké Ball and allowed Liko to take it under her care. At the end of the day, Liko decided she wanted to see her grandmother in the hopes of learning more about the pendant.

In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', Liko and the rest of the Rising Volt Tacklers decided to have a [[picnic]] while the ship was undergoing an automatic inspection. During that leisure period, feeling that Dot and [[Ludlow]] were missing out, Liko enlisted Murdock's help in making an indoor picnic for them. Later, Liko was shocked to see that she was sent a picture by Dot of Nidothing and Ludlow having a good time. In her naivety, Liko did not correlate Dot and Nidothing as the same person, instead concluding that it was all part of Dot's plan to make her happy.

In ''[[HZ014|Fly! Wattrel!]]'', Liko went to [[Levincia]] alone after seeing an advertisement for the [[Spicy Herba Mystica]] spice that Murdock wanted. Unbeknownst to her, this was a trap set up by [[Spinel]] to lure her away. Spinel used his {{p|Beheeyem}} to erase Liko's memories, specifically the ones involving the Rising Volt Tacklers, and effortlessly stole her pendant. In the [[HZ015|the following episode]], Dot staged a collaboration with [[Iono]] in order to find out Liko's whereabouts. By the time her memory fully recovered, Liko had reunited with Roy, Friede, and Dot, the latter she met in person for the first time. Realizing that Spinel was still in Paldea, the group was determined to retrieve the stolen pendant back.
[[File:Liko Roy Dot Paldean Starters.png|thumb|250px|left|Liko and her friends battling the Explorers]]
In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Liko, Roy, and Dot went searching for Spinel in order to get the pendant back. Once Dot located Spinel's whereabouts, Liko and Roy teamed up with her to battle the Explorers Admin. They managed to take down Spinel's {{p|Magneton}} and Beheeyem, only to be quickly overwhelmed by his {{p|Umbreon}}. Despite this, Liko's determination to keep battling caused the pendant to glow brightly, forcing Spinel out of his hiding spot and allowing Sprigatito the chance to retrieve it. Liko and the others escaped with Arboliva's help and reunited with the other Rising Volt Tacklers. Later, Dot finally confessed to Liko about her secret identity as Nidothing, much to Liko's shock.

In [[HZ018]], Liko and her friends became curious as to how Captain Pikachu was able to fly during his battle against Roy in the [[HZ017|previous episode]]. After Friede dodged all their questions, Liko and the rest of the crew came together and convinced him to tell the story of his first encounter with Captain Pikachu, which also led to the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers. During the story, Liko was surprised to find out that her mother was Friede's teacher.

In [[HZ020]], Liko arrived at [[Motostoke Stadium]] with Roy in order to gather information about the Black Rayquaza from [[Motostoke]] Gym Leader [[Kabu]]. Kabu tested their resolve through a training contest to master their Pokémon's basic moves, followed by a Tag Battle against himself and his apprentice {{OBP|Wakaba|HZ020}}. Although Liko did her best throughout her training, she yielded to Roy during their contest when she saw how he had improved, and felt it best to forfeit against Wakaba to help her qualify as a {{tc|Gym Trainer}}. When this only upset Sprigatito and Wakaba, however, Kabu helped Liko understand her lack of consideration for their feelings, and she apologized to them both. After the training, Liko and Roy learned from Kabu that Rayquaza was spotted heading towards the [[Galar Mine]].
[[File:Liko Hatenna Sprigatito.png|thumb|250px|Liko catching her first Pokémon]]
In the [[HZ021|next episode]], while heading to the Galar Mine, Liko, Roy, and Friede had to seek shelter from the rain and they found a wild {{p|Hatenna}}. Liko felt that something wasn't right with her and brought Hatenna back to the Brave Olivine so Mollie could check her out. Mollie deduced she was just feeling down, so Liko volunteered to look after Hatenna, but she ran away after sensing Dot's strong emotions. Liko, Roy, and Dot sought Hatenna all over the airship, with Liko eventually finding her on the observation deck. She told Hatenna that she also liked to come there as well because it was quiet and peaceful, which led them to bond. After the weather cleared up, Liko attempted to return Hatenna to the wild, but Sprigatito convinced the Calm Pokémon not to go and she ran back into Liko's arms. Realizing that Hatenna wanted to go with her, Friede gave her a Poké Ball and Liko happily caught {{TP|Liko|Hatenna}}, adding her to her [[party|team]].
[[File:Liko Lucius Belt.png|thumb|left|200px|Liko wearing [[Lucius]]'s belt]]
In [[HZ022]], Liko with Roy and Friede arrived at the Galar Mine, but got separated from them. However, Liko was able to meet back up with Roy and encounter the Explores again. During the battle, Liko and her friends met a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Moltres}} that had an Ancient Poké Ball, which got her to realize that its one of Lucius's Pokémon. Unfortunately, Liko and Roy were forced to retreat when Moltres proved to be too strong and Captain Pikachu was injured as they left the mine. In the [[HZ023|next episode]], Liko and Roy arrived at the Pokémon Center in [[Motostoke]] where they reunited with Friede and agreed to battle Moltres again. After finding Moltres again at the Galar Mine, Liko battled the Legendary Pokémon once more in order to calm it down. However, after calming Moltres down, Liko's pendant started to glow and briefly transformed into the mysterious Pokémon again, following which the Moltres returned to its Ancient Poké Ball and allowed Liko to take it under her care.

In [[HZ024]], Liko with Roy and Friede arrived [[Hammerlocke]] in order to find an old castle that her grandmother was at. Through her {{p|Squawkabilly}}, Liko and her friends were able to find her grandmother. Liko introduces her grandmother to her friends Roy and Friede. Also, Liko introduces her grandmother to Sprigatito and Hatenna as her Pokémon partners. They hung out at the castle until the Explorers, who have been following them, arrived at their location. In the [[HZ025|next episode]], Liko and Roy tried to escape the Explorers, but they were forced to battle Onia and Zirc, being able to defeat them. After the rest of the Rising Volt Tacklers arrived, Liko, her grandmother and her friends were able to escape.

In [[HZ031]], Liko joined her friends and Ludlow in finding a {{p|Lapras}}, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon. Fortunately, Liko, Roy, Dot, and Ludlow were able to find Lapras, but they failed to get it to come out, as it was covered by the {{m|Mist}} and two Pokémon appeared on the ship. When Friede devised a plan to get Lapras back, Liko and Roy stayed on the deck to wait for the Transport Pokémon. Through Friede and Captain Pikachu, Liko and Roy saw it with battle scars and other various Pokémon on a {{p|Wailord}}, who also had scars as well. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Liko joined Roy and Friede in going after Lapras and, after convincing it that they were friends, Lapras returned to its Ancient Poké Ball and Liko took it under her care. However, before setting off, Liko and her friends witnessed the Black Rayquaza arriving at their location.

In [[HZ033]], Liko witnessed Terapagos transform in order to battle the Black Rayquaza, after it defeated Amethio. After Terapagos collapsed and the Black Rayquaza left, Liko stayed by its side while it recovered. Liko and Roy then had a training battle with Diana, and won when Sprigatito managed to land a hit on her {{p|Arcanine}}. In the [[HZ034|next episode]], Liko and Roy overheard Diana's intentions to continue traveling alone. They decided to organize a surprise farewell party for her. Through the help of their teammates, Liko and Roy surprised Diana with the party, which she appreciated. Before leaving, Diana gave Liko her adventure log and then the Rising Volt Tacklers resumed their search for the remaining Six Heroes. However, Liko was informed by Friede that they were heading back to Paldea first in order to gain information on Terapagos.

In [[HZ036]], Liko and Roy were asked by Dot to help her with a fan of Nidothing named [[Yuno]] in solving her Pokémon's personality issues. Upon arriving, Liko, Roy, and Dot find out that Yuno is trying to find a partner to team up with her for the [[Pigton Town Tag Battle‎‎]], but her partner Pokémon {{p|Oinkologne}} is in love with another Oinkologne, who is owned [[Renta]]. Through their teamwork, the three friends were able to help Yuno's Oinkologne win Renta's over and the two Trainer's decided to be partners for the tournament. Liko and Roy also train with Yuno and Renta to help them prepare for the tournament, which paid off as they won the whole thing. Also, Liko and Roy joined Dot when she interviewed Yuno as Nidothing, but it got cut short when she became confused about her feelings for Renta.

===Character===
[[File:Liko bashfulness.jpg|thumb|250px|Liko's social anxiety]]
Liko is a kind, soft-spoken, and polite girl who doesn't do well in stressful situations. She seems to be studious when it comes to learning about how to build a bond with Pokémon and is rather insightful, being able to spot behavioral patterns with ease, such as [[Captain Pikachu]]'s during the [[HZ007|special training]]. She also has been shown to be cautious of trusting others, as she quickly realized something was up when [[Amethio]] presented himself as a representative of her grandmother, {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}, and was initially unsure about the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] since [[Friede]] took her to their [[Brave Olivine|airship]] without giving her any information about what was happening. However, after seeing the Rising Volt Tacklers willing to protect her and helped her rescue {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} from the [[Explorers]], Liko came to trust them. Despite her smarts, Liko has also been shown to be gullible and naïve on occasion, mainly when it comes to realizing that Nidothing and [[Dot]] are the same person until she told her the truth in ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]''. Liko can also be clumsy and has a tendency to lose her balance, stumble, or fall down on occasion. In addition, she appears to be adept at drawing, as it is common for her to do so when she writes on her [[Rotom Phone|diary]] about her day. Liko is a big fan of Nidothing and watches her videos, where she posts comments under the username (Japanese: '''ニャオハ大好きっ子''' ''{{tt|Nyahoja|Sprigatito}} Superfan'').

[[File:Roy Liko Dot.png|thumb|250px|left|Liko and her friends]]
Liko has been shown to be a bit bashful and socially anxious around new people. In ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part One]]'', after seeing that other students of [[Indigo Academy]] also liked Nidothing, Liko thought about striking up a conversation with them but was unable to voice her words. On occasions when this initial barrier is overcome, however, Liko can easily make friends, being able to quickly befriend [[Ann]] and [[Roy]] after meeting them, and was also even able to get the extremely reserved Dot to slightly open up as well. Ever since learning that there was another member aboard the Brave Olivine, Liko made attempts to make the mysterious girl open herself up more, which is seen in full display in ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens!]]'' when she brought Dot her lunch and invited her to watch Nidothing's livestream after hearing the streamer's background music from the other girl's room. Liko has also shown an interested in helping other people with their romantic problems. When she hears or sees something that excites her, she claps her hands together, as shown in ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', after discovering that she actually met a [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Liko is shown to not be a picky eater, telling [[Murdock]] in ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'' that she'll eat anything. Liko also knows how to cook [[curry]], as seen in [[HZ027]], when she made some for her friends to try, which they enjoyed.
[[File:Liko and Ann.png|thumb|250px|Liko and Ann]]
Liko cares very much about Pokémon and is shown to prioritize their safety, as shown in ''[[HZ002|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part Two]]'', where she attempted to surrender herself to the Explorers so the Rising Volt Tacklers' Pokémon wouldn't get hurt. Liko will do anything to protect Pokémon, especially her own, from danger, even going to point of being reckless in order to do so, as shown in [[HZ026]], when she attempted to save {{an|Terapagos}} from falling off the Brave Olivine, which would have led her to fall off as well if not for her grandmother and her {{p|Arcanine}}. Liko often gets happy and excited when meeting new Pokémon in general, in stark contrast to her usual bashfulness with new people.

[[File:Liko confident.png|thumb|250px|left|Liko's confident side]]
Though Liko can be timid and uncertain of her abilities, especially in dangerous situations, she has shown a brave side when supported by those around her, people and Pokémon alike, as seen in episodes such as ''[[HZ002|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part Two]]'' and ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', after {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}, and later Roy and Dot, encouraged her to stand tall against the Explorers, and ''[[HZ005|Found You, Fuecoco!]]'', when she reminded Roy and herself about what they as Trainers could do with Pokémon by their side. Liko also has a calm disposition and is very approachable, as shown in [[HZ021]], when she was able to approach a shy and seclusive [[Liko's Hatenna|Hatenna]] she met near the [[Galar Mine]], as it led them to bond and the Calm Pokémon becoming one of her Pokémon partners thanks to her calm emotions.

Ever since being assigned to the observation deck on the Brave Olivine in ''[[HZ004|The Treasure After the Storm!]]'', Liko came to enjoy hanging out there because it was peaceful and quiet, as she would go there in order to get away from whatever was troubling her. Liko often tries to prioritize the happiness of other people before her own, but this sometimes ends up having the opposite effect due to her not properly considering their feelings. This tendency, along with a lack of a goal, resulted in Liko's own development and growth as a Trainer stagnating due to having very little ambition of her own. However, in [[HZ021]], Liko decided that she wants to be a Trainer that understands how Pokémon feel. Liko has also learned to not hold back in a Pokémon battle and should give her all no matter who the opponent is.

Liko shares a great relationship with her family and is supportive of them. During her time with her grandmother, Liko became much closer with her, as she came to enjoy spending time with her. Liko is also used to having her family busy, due to her parents working and her grandmother traveling. Even since the events in ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', Liko came to admire Friede for his selflessness and compassion for others, and is impressed with his skills as a Pokémon Trainer and [[Pokémon Professor|Professor]]. In addition to Friede, Liko shares a close relationship with the rest of her teammates. However, out of all her teammates, Liko shares a remarkable relationship with Roy and Dot, as she mostly hangs out with them.

===Pokémon===
[[File:Liko team.png|thumb|250px|Liko and her Pokémon]]
Liko's team consist of cute and relaxed Pokémon who have the ability to understand feelings or help anyone who were overwhelmed by a certain emotion. Also, Liko's Pokémon seem to have an tendency to rest in certain areas in order to conserve their energy, such as her {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}'s sweet scent and {{TP|Liko|Hatenna}}'s ability to pick up emotion of both people and Pokémon.

This listing is of Liko's known {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}:

After the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] had helped to restore the damage to the forest done by a wildfire, Arboliva returned to its Ancient [[Poké Ball]] and allowed Liko and Roy to take it under their care. It was later revealed to be one of the ancient adventurer [[Lucius]]'s partner Pokémon.

In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It!]]'', Arboliva was summoned from its Poké Ball by Liko's pendant to face off [[Spinel]] and his Pokémon. This made the enemy decide to retreat and so Arboliva returned to [[Brave Olivine]] with Liko, Roy, and [[Nidothing|Dot]].

Still, this time the Trainers were successfully able to hold their own in battle with their Pokémon, allowing them to calm it down with {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}}'s aromatic leafage and Lucius's {{p|Arboliva}}. Moltres eventually calmed down enough to return to its Ancient [[Poké Ball]], allowing itself to be taken care of by Liko and the others.

'''Black Rayquaza''' (Japanese: '''黒いレックウザ''' ''Black Rayquaza'') is a [[Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|recurring Pokémon character]] that was once owned by [[Lucius]], as the leader and the most powerful member of his "Six Heroes" in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''.

==In the anime==
===History===
[[File:Lucius Pokémon.png|250px|thumb|left|Rayquaza with Lucius and its teammates in {{OBP|Alex|Horizons}}'s books]]
====Pre-series====
In ancient times, the {{shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}} travelled with the ancient adventurer [[Lucius]] along with his other five Pokémon, {{p|Arboliva}}, [[Galarian Form|Galarian]] {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Lapras}}, {{p|Kleavor}}, and {{p|Entei}}, forming together a group named the "Six Heroes", with Rayquaza as their apparent leader alongside Lucius. They all journeyed together, eventually meeting {{an|Terapagos}} in someway, who started travelling alongside them. After the group found [[Rakua]] and Lucius left to live there, the group scattered around the world. Somehow though, Rayquaza's Ancient [[Poké Ball#Ancient Poké Ball|Poké Ball]] with it inside, ended up in the sea and eventually washed up on the shoreline of [[Roy's hometown|an island]], where it was found by [[Roy's grandfather]] a few years ago, being later gifted to his [[Roy|grandson]].

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Rayquaza staring at Liko.png|thumb|250px|Liko meeting the Black Rayquaza]]
In ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', [[Liko]]'s {{an|Terapagos|pendant}} started to glow together with Rayquaza's Poké Ball, which finally opened during a battle between the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] and the [[Explorers]]. The [[Legendary Pokémon]] briefly battled everyone in the area, right before flying away in the direction of [[Paldea]] but not before staring at Liko. Since then, the Rising Volt Tacklers, [[Roy]] in special, started seeking Rayquaza around the world, bonding friendship with the other members of the "Six Heroes" like {{p|Arboliva}} and {{p|Moltres}}, but failing to get in time to where Rayquaza was said to be.
[[File:Kabu Rayquaza flashback.png|250px|left|thumb|Kabu spotting Rayquaza]]
It was mentioned in ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'' when {{OBP|Alex|Horizons}}, Liko's father, said that Black Rayquaza is heading towards [[Artazon]]. Then it was mentioned again by [[Brassius]] in ''[[HZ010|Nemona and Brassius and...]]'', who confirmed Rayquaza arrived at [[Arboliva Forest]] where a giant Arboliva lived.

In ''[[HZ012|The Future I Choose!]]'', Liko and Roy found out about the "Six Heroes's" story in Alex's books, knowing now that Rayquaza was [[Lucius]]'s main and most powerful Pokémon.

In [[HZ020]], [[Kabu]] revealed to have seen Rayquaza. Soon after, the Legendary Pokémon went towards the west of [[Motostoke]].
[[File:HZ033.png|250px|thumb|Rayquqaza battling Amethio's Ceruledge]]
In [[HZ032]], the Rishing Volt Tacklers reencountered the Black Rayquaza in the sea right after Lucius's {{p|Lapras}} joined them. In [[HZ033]], Rayquaza was suddenly attacked by [[Amethio]]'s {{p|Corviknight}} and {{TP|Amethio|Ceruledge}}, but it easily defeated them, before starting to attack the Rising Volt Tacklers as well, forcing Terapagos to transform into its Terastal Form and use {{m|Tera Starstorm}} against Rayquaza's {{m|Draco Meteor}} to protect its friends, which made Rayquaza amazed and leave once again.

===Personality and characteristics===
Not much is known about the {{Shiny|Black}} Rayquaza. It is the most powerful of the "Six Heroes" and apparently, their leader alongside [[Lucius]]. It appears to be very aggressive and for some reason, prefers to fly away from the ones seeking it, including its former teammates and {{an|Terapagos}}. It has also shown some kind of interest towards both the Pokémon and [[Liko]], probably due to the girl's family being linked to Lucius somehow and due to it knowing Terapagos from the past. {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}} theorizes that it wants to see its true power.

===Moves used===

===Pocket Monsters===
Rayquaza appeared in a cameo in the {{OBP|Pocket Monsters|Kei Yamadaka}} manga.
{{-}}
==Trivia==
* The Black Rayquaza is the first {{Shiny}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] to be owned by a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.
* In many of its appearances, the Black Rayquaza appeared to be in a brilliant and crystallized state, similar to {{Tera}}stallization, but lacking a Tera Jewel on its head.
** This could indicate a bigger connection between Rayquaza and Terapagos, not only both used to be Lucius's Pokémon, but it was also Terapagos in its dormant state who awakened Rayquaza from its ancient Poké Ball.

{{Translated title|on}}
[[File:Yuno.png|thumb|250px|Yuno]]
(Japanese: '''ユノ''' ''Yuno'') is a [[character of the day]] who appeared in [[HZ036]].

Yuno is a beginner Trainer from [[Pigton Town]] who started her journey with a female {{p|Oinkologne}}, who was named Kuru-chan. A few days before [[Pigton Town Tag Battle]], Yuno asked [[Dot|Nidothing]] for assistance with her Pokémon's personality issues.

When Liko and Roy arrived to resolve the situation with the assistance of {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} and Nidothing, they discovered that Oinkologne was in love with [[Renta]]'s Oinkologne named Prince, Yuno then explained that Renta was an old friend and childhood rival of Yuno. After being snubbed by Renta and Oinkologne, Yuno and Kuru-chan decided with the help of Liko and Roy to bathe and teach Kuru-chan some etiquette, so that the Pokémon would awaken Prince's feelings. After being snubbed again, Oinkologne with the help of Quaxly managed to reach Prince's feelings and after another argument between their Trainers, Yuno and Renta made peace. However, before leaving, Yuno asked Liko to train together for the competition, already in perfect synchronization, the duo Yuno and Renta manage to have a tough battle against Liko and Roy.

During the competition, Yuno and Renta managed to beat all the challengers and thus reach the final, defeating a huge {{p|Mamoswine}} and thus being the winners of the Pigton Town Tag Battle. After the competition, Yuno was interviewed by Nidothing, but ended the interview after becoming confused about her own feelings for Renta.

'''Starmie''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''スターミー''' ''Starmie'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Staryu}} when exposed to a [[Water Stone]].

==Biology==
Starmie is an {{wp|echinoderm}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles two violet {{wp|starfish}} with five appendages each. The front starfish has a golden formation in the center. In the center of the golden casing is its red jewel core, which can glow in seven colors and has developed to resemble a cut precious stone. The second starfish is semi-attached to the back of the first and can spin 360 degrees. This rotational action is how Starmie swims through the ocean. It can also launch itself out of the water and fly through the air for short periods, as seen in [[Pokémon Snap]].

From its core, Starmie can emit electrical waves that are powerful enough to reach the furthest parts of the universe. The multi-color glowing of its core is also believed to be a method of communication with other members of its species. As seen in [[EP007|the anime]], the core will go dark if Starmie is knocked unconscious and will sometimes flicker if Starmie is low on health. Because of its body shape and habit of sending transmissions skyward, some people believe this Pokémon to be {{pkmn2|extraterrestrial}}. It has been known to cause headaches on people when approached. It is rarely seen in the wild since it requires a rare [[evolution stone]] to evolve, but it can be found in the deepest parts of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean}}. It feeds by absorbing tiny plankton into its body while swimming, and it is preyed on by {{p|Lumineon}}.

===Evolution===
Starmie evolves from {{p|Staryu}}.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

==Trivia==
* Staryu was programmed to learn Egg moves in {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, but these moves were unobtainable because both Staryu and Starmie are [[gender unknown]] and so could only breed with {{p|Ditto}}. These moves were removed in {{v2|Crystal}}.
* Staryu, Starmie, and {{p|Mew}} are the only Pokémon species that are [[gender unknown]] but can legitimately learn {{m|Attract}} in [[Generation II]]. This move has no effect when used by these Pokémon.
* In the Japanese-exclusive {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium}}, Starmie seems to have originally been a lot more rubbery than it is now, as its limbs stretch whenever it is hit.
* Starmie is the only {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Water 3}}.

===Origin===
Starmie seems to be based on a stylized {{wp|starfish}} such as the {{wp|purple sea star}} (due to its color), the {{wp|sunflower sea star}} (due to its many arms) or the {{wp|Celerina heffernani|Hefferman's starfish}} (due to its color and central pattern, especially in the shiny form). Like Starmie, many real starfish have the ability to {{wp|Regeneration (biology)|regenerate}} lost body parts. Given its ties to outer space and ability to emit light, it may also be based on literal {{wp|star}}s and {{wp|meteor}}s. It is also reminiscent of ornate {{wp|jewelry}}, with its central core resembling a {{wp|facet}}ed gem mounted inside a golden {{wp|prong setting}}. The standard color of its gem resembles a {{wp|ruby}}, while its {{Shiny}} color resembles a {{wp|sapphire}}. Its tendency to rapidly spin its body is reminiscent of {{wp|shuriken}} and {{wp|propeller}}s.

Its ability to learn various beam attacks and the gem in the middle acting like a heart might also be a reference to the {{wp|Ultraman}} series, where Ultra Warriors have similar gems on their chests, which will start flashing when they're weak, just like Starmie's gem as displayed in the anime.

====Name origin====
Starmie may be a combinaton of ''star'' and ''mystery''. Its name in English may involve ''me'' (in opposition to the ''you'' in {{p|Staryu}}).

Convergent species

Immblueversion: /* List of ecologically similar Pokémon */

{{unknown name}}
Certain {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are described as '''ecologically similar'''<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/poltchageist/ Poltchageist — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref> (Japanese: '''生態は似ている'''<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/sv_dlc/ja/pokemon/230822_01/ チャデス｜『ポケットモンスタースカーレット・バイオレットゼロの秘宝』公式サイト]</ref> ''ecologically similar'') to previously discovered species, but are otherwise completely different Pokémon. This concept was first introduced in [[Generation IX]].

They are sometimes referred to by fans as '''convergent forms''', '''convergent Pokémon''', or '''convergent species''', relating the concept to {{wp|convergent evolution}} in biology, or '''regional fakes''', due to their similarity to [[regional form]]s, which are different forms of the same Pokémon. So far, six of these Pokémon have been introduced. [[Jacq]] is known for his research on these Pokémon in collaboration with the World Pokémon Ecological Society.<ref name=WPES>[https://wpes.pokemon.co.jp/en/ World Pokémon Ecological Society] ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQoVAMGli0E Video archive])</ref>

Ecologically similar Pokémon tend to have similar, though not always identical, [[base stats]].

==In the core series games==
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the player can find Pokémon that are ecologically similar to other species across [[Paldea]], as well as in [[Kitakami]].

===History===
These Pokémon were first identified by the World Pokémon Ecological Society after the discovery of Wiglett during a survey.<ref name=WPES/> Wiglett was initially mistaken as a possible [[Paldean form]] of {{p|Diglett}} before it was decided that it was a different species entirely and the similarities were merely coincidental.

==Trivia==
* The concept of ecologically similar Pokémon was first introduced with the reveal of {{p|Wiglett}} before the release of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.<ref name=WPES/>
* These Pokémon are similar to the [[Paradox Pokémon]] in that they bear a striking resemblance to certain Pokémon but are nonetheless completely different species.
* These Pokémon are all part of a two stage evolution line.
* Some ecologically similar Pokémon have several unique distinctions:
** The {{p|Poltchageist}} and {{p|Sinistea}} families are the only ecologically similar Pokémon that share a [[type]] and the only ones to share [[Egg Group]]s with each other.
*** Additionally, they are the only ones which are named after the inverse of their counterparts, with Poltchageist's evolved form Sinistcha being named after {{p|Polteageist}}'s unevolved form {{p|Sinistea}}, and vice versa.
** The {{p|Toedscool}} and {{p|Tentacool}} lines are the only ecologically similar Pokémon where the original counterparts were unavailable in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet until [[The Indigo Disk]]
* In the code of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Toedscool and {{p|Toedscruel}} are referred to as "OKAKINGU" (''hill king'', from Koiking, {{p|Magikarp}}'s Japanese name) and "OKAGYARADOSU" (''hill {{p|Gyarados}}''), respectively, suggesting that they may have replaced a scrapped evolution line based on Magikarp and Gyarados.
* The newer Pokémon of each ecologically similar pairing always has a type that is strong against the original counterpart's typing. For example, the Water type of Wiglett's line is strong against Diglett's line, which is Ground type.
** This is true for Poltchageist's line as well, despite sharing a type with their counterparts, since Ghost-type moves are super effective against Ghost-type Pokémon.

===Origin===
While these Pokémon are officially described as "ecologically similar",<ref name=SVsite/> it may be more accurate to describe them as "morphologically similar", as while they have similar physical characteristics, many of them occupy very different ecological niches. The concept resembles {{wp|convergent evolution}} and {{wp|parallel evolution}} in {{wp|evolution|evolutionary biology}}, both of which can lead to separate organisms independently developing similar or identical characteristics and body plans.

They reside in the land of [[Kitakami]] and were considered heroes by its people.

The three members are all [[Gender|male]], and they share a primary type, {{t|Poison}}; a {{pkmn|category}}, "Retainer Pokémon"; and an [[Ability]], {{a|Toxic Chain}}.

After their true, greedy nature is revealed, [[Carmine]] sarcastically refers to them as the '''Lousy Three''' or the '''"Loyal" Three'''.

==History==
[[File:The Loyalty Plaza after being rebuilt.png|thumb|250px|The Loyal Three shrine at the Loyalty Plaza]]
The Pokémon that formed the Loyal Three were once below-average Pokémon: {{p|Okidogi}} was small and weak, {{p|Munkidori}} was clumsy and dim-witted, and {{p|Fezandipiti}} had short, dull feathers. The {{a|Toxic Chain}}s wrapped around their bodies granted them the strength, cleverness, and beauty that they respectively wished for. How the chains were found or created remains a mystery, although it would later be revealed that {{p|Pecharunt}} was responsible.

In [[Kitakami]], a man and an [[Ogerpon (game)|ogre]] were becoming famous for their four exquisite masks, to the point they were being talked about in other regions. Hearing about them, this group of three Pokémon, along with a fourth individual, made their way to Kitakami to take the masks for themselves, infiltrating [[Dreaded Den|the cave]] where they resided. In the ogre's absence, after a struggle, the trio managed to leave with just three: The [[Wellspring Mask]], the [[Hearthflame Mask]], and the [[Cornerstone Mask]], with the man only holding onto the remaining [[Teal Mask]].

Later, the ogre returned to its cave and found it in ruins, with only the Teal Mask left behind and no traces of its friend or the other masks. Donning the remaining Teal Mask with its cudgel in hand, the ogre set out to the nearby village in search of its friend, only to find the trio gloating over their plunder. Enraged, the ogre defeated the trio, much to the fear of the villagers observing the battle. Already afraid of the ogre due to its appearance, the villagers believed that the trio were actually defending them from the ogre. As the wounded ogre left the village, alone and in sorrow, the villagers named the trio the Loyal Three, and put their bodies to rest. The Loyal Three's remains were buried near the village, and a monument dedicated to honor their "sacrifice" was erected on top. The surrounding area would be known as Loyal Three Park, later renamed to [[Loyalty Plaza]].

Only the village mask maker, who had gifted the ogre and the man with the masks, understood what had transpired between the Loyal Three and the ogre. However, the other villagers dismissed him as a heretic for attempting to explain the truth. To protect his family from suffering the village's wrath as he did, he kept the truth hidden from everyone, and passed the truth down to his descendants as a family secret. From that point on, the Loyal Three were unjustly revered as heroes by the people of Kitakami for generations.

According to local Kitakami beliefs, worshiping the Loyal Three would grant various benefits such as kindness, success, and good fortune.

==In the games==
===Pokémon Scarlet and Violet===
Prior to the release of update 2.0.1, the Loyal Three could be seen on a poster in [[Medali]], teasing the future expansion.

The Loyal Three formally appear in [[The Teal Mask]]. They are somehow suddenly resurrected after their grave was punched by Kieran and emerge from their burial ground, and they proceed to [[Mossui Town]], where they are fed by the villagers and given back Ogerpon's masks that they had stolen, which the villagers had kept in Kitakami Hall. Afterwards, the three head to the [[Dreaded Den]] to fight {{p|Ogerpon}} again, but are stopped by the player, causing them to flee. Wanting to help Ogerpon retrieve her masks back, the player forms a group called the "Mask Retrieval Squad" with [[Carmine]] and [[Kieran]] — the latter two being descendants of the mask maker who provided Ogerpon with her masks.

Presumably due to the food they were fed earlier, the Loyal Three assumed [[Titan Pokémon|titanic forms]], requiring the player and [[Carmine]] to team up to take each one down together. Eventually, they were beaten and forced out of their titanic forms, causing them to leave behind their stolen masks.

In the post-story, the player can optionally rematch and catch the individual members at the same areas they were fought at before.

==Trivia==
[[File:Unknown figure Kitakami.png|thumb|200px|A depiction of what appears to be {{p|Pecharunt}} in {{p|Ogerpon}}'s story]]
* The Loyal Three, {{p|Pecharunt}}, and {{p|Ogerpon}} appear to reference the Japanese folktale of ''{{wp|Momotarō}}'', albeit with the roles of the heroes and the villains reversed. The tale of ''Momotarō'' relates the titular Momotarō, a boy born from inside a peach, who traveled alongside a talking dog, monkey, and pheasant to fight a band of ''{{wp|oni}}'' (a Japanese folkloric creature commonly equated to ogres in translations).
* The names of the trio's members all reference different expressions that are associated with happiness: Okidogi being taken from "okeydokey", Munkidori being taken from "hunky-dory", and Fezandipiti being taken from "serendipity".
* The group's shared base HP stat of 88 can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for やばい ''yabai'', which can mean several different things like "terrible" and "dangerous", referencing their true nature as greedy, vicious thieves.
** Conversely, 88 can also be read as goroawase for ぱちぱち ''pachipachi'', the sound of clapping. This could reference their misinterpreted role as heroes in their story, as well as the positive connotations of their names.
* All moves learned by the Loyal Three via leveling up are learned at levels which are multiples of 8 (excluding level 1).
** 8 is considered a lucky number in many Asian cultures, including Japanese. This aligns with the trio's naming convention and role.
* During the scene showcasing Ogerpon's true story as told by [[Kieran and Carmine's grandparents|Kieran and Carmine's grandfather]], when the Loyal Three are about to steal Ogerpon's masks, an unknown figure resembling a peach (pictured) can be barely seen right above Okidogi.
** The figure's shape bears a resemblance to the tip of the Toxic Chains the Loyal Three have on their body.
** The figure’s shape also resembles an object at the Peachy's store in [[Mossui Town]].
** The figure's shape bears some resemblance to {{p|Pecharunt}}'s closed shell.

Elite Four

2023-12-14T22:56:09Z

Immblueversion: /* BB Elite Four */

[[File:LGPE Elite Four.png|thumb|300px|Artwork of {{ga|Chase}} and {{ga|Elaine}} confronting the Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]]]
The '''Elite Four''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|四天王|してんのう}}''' ''The Big Four'') are four [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who are regarded as the toughest in their [[region]]al [[Pokémon League]], just short of the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Those who challenge the Elite Four must have won all eight [[Badge]]s from that region (or, for Trainers in [[Alola]], must have completed all of their [[island challenge]] trials). To become Champion, Trainers must face all four and the current Champion consecutively without losing to any of them. Challengers who lose at any time must start their challenge from the beginning. In [[Paldea]], the challenge is named the Elite Test, and is part of the greater Champion Assessment.

One group resides at the [[Indigo Plateau]] in [[Kanto]] and are considered the best Trainers in both Kanto and [[Johto]]. Another group is located in [[Ever Grande City]] in [[Hoenn]], while another is located on [[Mount Lanakila]] in [[Alola]]. Four more groups reside at the Pokémon Leagues in {{si|Pokémon League|Sinnoh}}, {{un|Pokémon League|Unova}}, {{kal|Pokémon League|Kalos}}, and {{pal|Pokémon League|Paldea}}.

In the games, they use strong {{cat|medicine}} items in battles. In [[Generation II]], they use [[Max Potion]]s, and from [[Generation III]] onwards, they use [[Full Restore]]s. Like [[Gym Leader]]s, they typically specialize in Pokémon of a particular [[type]]. Prior to [[Generation V]] and in [[Generation IX]], the Elite Four typically progresses in [[level]] with their Pokémon in the games and must be challenged in a set order. From Generation V to Generation VII, all members of the Elite Four (except in [[remake]]s) use Pokémon of the same levels, as they can be challenged in any order.

In [[Generation VIII]], the [[Galar League|Pokémon League]] in the [[Galar]] region uses the Champion Cup tournament instead of an Elite Four.

==In the core series games==
===Indigo Elite Four===
At the [[Indigo Plateau]] — the site of the Pokémon League in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] — the Elite Four must be battled in a fixed order.

===Pokémon Trading Card Game series===
In {{OBP|Pokémon Trading Card Game|video game}} and [[Pokémon Trading Card Game 2: The Invasion of Team GR!]], there is a group composed of powerful four members called the [[Grand Master]]s, who are the counterpart of the Elite Four in these games. Defeating them earns the player the Legendary Cards.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Sinnoh Elite Four.png|thumb|250px|The Sinnoh Elite Four in the anime]]
In the [[Pokémon anime]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} infrequently meet Elite Four members, who then impart them with battle strategies. In ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', [[Lucian]] revealed that when a Trainer wins their respective region's {{pkmn|League Conference}}, they can participate in the {{DL|Pokémon League|Champion League}}, fighting the members of that region's Elite Four, and, if victorious against them, the regional {{pkmn|Champion}} as well. It has also been shown that an Elite Four member can challenge the Champion for their title.

====Kanto Elite Four====
In [[Kanto]], Ash has met the entire original Elite Four roster:
* [[Bruno]] was the first Elite Four member to appear in the anime (excluding [[Koga]], who was later promoted to be one in [[Generation II]]), in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''.
* [[Lorelei]] appeared in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]'', but she is named "Prima" in the English [[dub]].
* {{an|Lance}} debuted in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'', where he was mentioned to be the {{pkmn|Champion}} rather than a regular member of the Elite Four. He is referred to as a member of the Elite Four in ''[[JN012|Flash of the Titans!]]''. From ''[[JN109|Aim For The Eight!]]'' onwards, he's referred to as the Champion once again, with him being mentioned to have claimed that title recently.
* [[Agatha]] appeared in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'', where she was acting as a temporary [[Gym Leader]] for the [[Viridian Gym]].
** [[Koga]], though not an Elite Four member, debuted in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', where he had a Gym battle against Ash.

====Hoenn Elite Four====
In [[Hoenn]], Ash has met only one Elite Four member:
* [[Drake]] appeared in ''[[AG101|Vanity Affair]]'', where he invited Ash and his friends to his boat, where he had a battle with Ash. He reappeared in ''[[JN088|Looking Out for Number Two!]]'', where he was shown to have become a treasure hunter in addition to his Elite Four duties.

====Sinnoh Elite Four====
In [[Sinnoh]], Ash has also met the entire Elite Four roster:
* [[Lucian]] debuted in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', where he had a battle with {{an|Dawn}}, using his {{p|Bronzong}} against her {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}. He also helped her to deal with Buizel's [[obedience]] issues.
* [[Aaron]] debuted in ''[[DP099|A Trainer and Child Reunion!]]'', where he was seen training to challenge {{an|Cynthia}}.
* [[Flint]] debuted in ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', where he had a battle with Ash, using his {{TP|Flint|Infernape}} against his {{AP|Buizel}}, {{AP|Infernape}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* [[Bertha]] appeared in ''[[DP170|An Elite Coverup!]]'', where she taught Ash and Dawn how observation skills can be useful in {{pkmn|battle}}s and [[Pokémon Contest]]s. She's the only member of the Sinnoh Elite Four to never be seen battling Cynthia.

====Unova Elite Four====
In [[Unova]], Ash has also met only one Elite Four member:
* [[Caitlin]] debuted in ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', where she faced off against {{an|Cynthia}} during an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}} of the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]].

====Kalos Elite Four====
[[File:Wikstrom and Drasna.png|thumb|250px|Wikstrom and Drasna; two members of Kalos Elite Four]]
In [[Kalos]], the entire Elite Four roster has appeared, with Ash having met three of them. Unlike the games, all members of the Elite Four of Kalos have at least one Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]]:
* [[Siebold]] appeared in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where he used his {{me|Blastoise}} to battle [[Alain]] and his Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X.
* [[Wikstrom]] first appeared in a cameo in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'', in which he was seen battling [[Diantha]], using his Mega {{p|Scizor}} against her Mega {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}}. He made his main series debut in ''[[JN056|Searching for Chivalry!]]'', in which Ash met him for the first time when he visited the [[Castle of Chivalry]] in order to train with his {{AP|Farfetch'd}}.
* [[Malva]] debuted in ''[[XY092|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'' in a video transmission. Ash didn't meet her until ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', where he was interviewed by her. Like in the games, she's featured as a member of [[Team Flare]], but ends up opposing [[Lysandre]] when his big plan is put into action.
* [[Drasna]] appeared in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]'' and ''[[JN104|Taking Two For The Team!]]''. She battled Ash in a [[World Coronation Series]] match at the [[Lumiose Conference]] stadium and ultimately lost, marking the first time Ash has defeated an Elite Four member.

====Alola Elite Four====
In [[Alola]], Ash has met the entire Elite Four rosters from both the {{pkmn|Sun and Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} paired versions, though none of them presented themselves as such, because the Alola League was not established until ''[[SM115|The Dealer of Destruction!]]'' in the anime:
* [[Hala]] debuted in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', where he led Ash to [[Verdant Cavern]] so he could start his [[island challenge]].
* [[Olivia]] debuted in ''[[SM031|The Island Whisperer!]]'', where she took Ash and his classmates to [[Akala Island]] and began hosting them during their stay there.
* [[Acerola]] debuted in ''[[SM073|Why Not Give Me a Z-Ring Sometime?]]'', though Ash didn't meet her until the [[SM074|next episode]], where she assisted him in his first battle against [[Nanu]].
* [[Molayne]] debuted in ''[[SM079|Showering the World with Love!]]'', where he showed Ash and his classmates around the [[Hokulani Observatory]].
* [[Kahili]] debuted in ''[[SM110|Keeping Your Eyes on the Ball!]]'', where she took Ash and his classmates to a Pokémon Golf course and taught them the sport. She later participated in the [[Manalo Conference]], but lost in the preliminary round.

====Paldea Elite Four====
* [[Larry]] debuted in a background cameo during a flashback in [[HZ018]].

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Kanto Elite Four Adventures.png|110px|thumb|Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
The Kanto Elite Four, consisting of [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], [[Lance]], and [[Agatha]], made their debut in ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', watching the final battle between {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}}.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
The Kanto Elite Four served as the primary antagonists for this arc, seeking to wipe out most of humanity in order to create a utopia for Pokémon. They are each said to be so powerful that the triad leaders of [[Team Rocket]], [[Koga]], [[Lt. Surge]], and [[Sabrina]], all had to begrudgingly team up with the protagonists and [[Blaine]] to take just a single one of them at their base of operations on [[Cerise Island]].

===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
The Johto Elite Four is formed at the end of this arc, following the defeat of the [[Masked Man]]. It consists of accomplished Pokémon Trainers that were formerly part of criminal organizations, who would eventually rise as the official Elite Four of [[Indigo Plateau]]. [[Will]], Bruno, [[Karen]], and Koga united to train together after they were no longer being controlled.

===={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}====
[[File:Hoenn Elite Four Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Hoenn Elite Four in Pokémon Adventures]]
The Hoenn Elite Four, consisting of [[Sidney]], [[Phoebe]], [[Glacia]], and [[Drake]], made an appearance in this arc, helping to find and catch the {{TP|Brandon|Legendary giants}} in order to contain the massive surge of energy created by the clash of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} alongside {{Steven}} and [[Wallace]], their two regional {{pkmn|Champion}}s. It is also during the Hoenn Elite Four's appearance that the challenge of the Elite Four and Champion was mentioned as having replaced a knockout tournament to determine the best Trainer in the region.

===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
The first Sinnoh Elite Four member to debut in the series was [[Flint]], who made a cameo appearance in the last chapter of this arc.

===={{MangaArc|Platinum}}====
[[Aaron]], [[Bertha]], and [[Lucian]] debuted in this arc, where they were enlisted by the [[Pokémon Association]] Chairman to decode the ancient writings in [[Charon]]'s memobook. Meanwhile, Flint accompanied [[Volkner]] to the [[Distortion World]] so that they could battle {{p|Giratina}} for their own amusement.

===={{MangaArc|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}====
The Johto Elite Four reappeared in this arc, where they faced {{adv|Gold}} in various [[Pokéathlon]] events and later fought [[Lance's Dragonite]] when it went berserk.

===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Unova Elite Four first appeared in this arc as {{adv|Black}} cited them during his daily pledge. However, they never appeared to the main characters as a group. Besides [[Caitlin]], who already appeared in the ''Platinum'' arc, [[Grimsley]] met Black on {{rt|4|Unova}}, [[Shauntal]] met {{adv|White}} aboard the [[Battle Subway]], and [[Marshal]] met both in [[Nimbasa City]]. All four converged for the duration of the {{un|Pokémon League|Unova League}} tournament that would have determined the Trainer that would challenge them. They also participated in the battle against [[Team Plasma]] and the {{adv|Forces of Nature}} when [[N's Castle]] rose from the ground.

===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
The first Kalos Elite Four member to appear is [[Malva]], who appeared in person in this arc. [[Drasna]], [[Wikstrom]], and [[Siebold]] were mentioned by [[Diantha]] during her conversation with [[Gurkinn]] and [[Korrina]]. Siebold later appeared in the [[Lost Hotel]], cooking a meal for {{adv|X}} and {{adv|Y}}'s friends, as a way of apologizing for his lack of participation against [[Team Flare]]. Wikstrom and Drasna later appeared in person, assisting X and Y's group in their quest to stop Team Flare. Drasna gave them information about {{adv|Zygarde}} and Wikstrom used his {{p|Probopass}} to guide them to Team Flare's hideout at the [[Pokémon Village]]. Malva, bearing a searing hatred for Diantha, battled against the Kalos Champion twice over the course of the arc.

===={{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}====
While never actually forming, the members comprising the Alola Elite Four appear individually throughout the arc. [[Hala]] and [[Olivia]] debuted in ''[[PASM02|The Delivery of Rotom and the Girl]]'', discussing the sightings of the [[guardian deities]] around Alola with [[Nanu]]. [[Kahili]] debuted in ''[[PASM10|Defeat and the Commander of the School of Fish]]'', coming back to Alola and speculating the [[Ultra Beast]]s were the source of the guardian deities' rage. In ''[[PASM15|Shipwreck and "Oh, What Sharp Teeth You Have, Bruxish!"]]'', [[Acerola]] found an unconscious {{adv|Sun}} and [[Lillie]] on a beach and took them to the [[Aether House]] to recuperate. Molayne debuted in ''[[PASM19|Truth and the Mastermind Behind Team Skull]]'', helping innocent civilians escape from the Ultra Beasts wreaking havoc on [[Ula'ula Island]].

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[Flint]] appeared in ''[[DPA24|Hareta's Heart's Desire]]'' as a participant to the {{si|Pokémon League}} tournament, but chose to forfeit when he was overwhelmed by the power of [[Hareta's Regigigas]]. The rest of the Sinnoh Elite Four made a cameo while watching the battle.

===Pokémon Zensho===
The Kanto Elite Four members appeared in ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'', where all of them were defeated by {{Zensho|Satoshi}}, allowing him to face the Champion, {{Zensho|Shigeru}}.

==Trivia==
* The only [[type]]s that have yet to be specialized in by any Elite Four member are {{t|Normal}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fairy}}.
** Though [[Larry]] of the [[Paldea]] Elite Four specializes in the Normal type, he only does so as a [[Gym Leader]], not as an Elite Four member.
* The most common type specializations for members of the Elite Four are {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Dragon}}, with four individuals specializing in each type.
** Every Ghost-type Elite Four member is female. Conversely, every Dragon-type Elite Four member is male except [[Drasna]].
* {{p|Bronzong}} is the Pokémon used most frequently by Elite Four members, being used by four of them: [[Will]], [[Lucian]], [[Caitlin]], and [[Poppy]].
** Of these, Poppy is the only one who does not specialize in {{t|Psychic}} types, instead specializing in {{t|Steel}} types.
* In {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the battles against [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and [[Agatha]] use the standard {{pkmn|Trainer}} battle theme. The battle against [[Lance]], however, uses the usual Gym Leader battle theme.
** In the [[remake]]s, the Gym Leader battle theme plays in the battles with all members of the Elite Four.
* In the [[Kanto]]-based games:
** The Elite Four's specialty types are the ones that were the least common Pokémon types in [[Generation I]].
** Every Elite Four member has at least one Pokémon not of their specialty type in their initial battle.
* The Kalos Elite Four members are the only ones who do not have higher level Pokémon in future rematches with them in any game.
** Additionally, they are the only ones who use just four Pokémon in rematches with them. All other Elite Four members use either five or six Pokémon during rematches.
* The Indigo, Sinnoh, and Kalos Elite Four are the only Elite Four of which all members have appeared in the anime.
** All members of the Alola Elite Four have also appeared in the anime. However, they did not appear as Elite Four members, since the Alola Pokémon League was not established at the time.
* The Alola Elite Four is the only Elite Four with more female than male members.
* {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} are the only core series games to feature a Pokémon League but not an Elite Four. Instead, the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]] takes its place.
* The Paldea Elite Four is the only Elite Four to have members who do not take part in rematches against the player. The only members who do take part in rematches are [[Hassel]] and Larry. However, Larry can only be rematched once as a Gym Leader, where he specializes in Normal types instead of {{t|Flying}} types. Additionally, none of the rematches take place in the Paldea Pokémon League.
** The type specialties of the Paldea Elite Four are the types of the [[Titan Pokémon]]. The Stony Cliff Titan's type is filled in by [[Geeta]], who [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallizes]] her {{p|Glimmora}} into the Rock type.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], the English names of the Elite Four are puns based on their respective specialized types. From [[Generation VII]] onwards, they all possess flora-based names similar to the [[Pokémon Professor]]s. The same applies to each region's Gym Leaders.
* Except for [[Unova]], at least one Elite Four representative from each region introduced up to [[Generation VIII]] appeared in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
* The Unova Elite Four are the only Elite Four where all members have at least one type advantage over another.

===Name origin===
The Japanese name of the Elite Four literally translates to the ''{{wp|Four Heavenly Kings}}'', a term of Buddhist origins that refers to the group of four {{wp|devas|guardian deities}} presiding over each of the four cardinal directions. By extension, it connotes an ensemble of four leaders in a particular field, akin to the {{wp|Big Four}} in English.

The English translation of "the big four" had also appeared in the Japanese and Korean version of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

Elite Four

2023-12-14T21:45:35Z

Immblueversion: /* BB Elite Four */

[[File:LGPE Elite Four.png|thumb|300px|Artwork of {{ga|Chase}} and {{ga|Elaine}} confronting the Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]]]
The '''Elite Four''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|四天王|してんのう}}''' ''The Big Four'') are four [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who are regarded as the toughest in their [[region]]al [[Pokémon League]], just short of the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Those who challenge the Elite Four must have won all eight [[Badge]]s from that region (or, for Trainers in [[Alola]], must have completed all of their [[island challenge]] trials). To become Champion, Trainers must face all four and the current Champion consecutively without losing to any of them. Challengers who lose at any time must start their challenge from the beginning. In [[Paldea]], the challenge is named the Elite Test, and is part of the greater Champion Assessment.

One group resides at the [[Indigo Plateau]] in [[Kanto]] and are considered the best Trainers in both Kanto and [[Johto]]. Another group is located in [[Ever Grande City]] in [[Hoenn]], while another is located on [[Mount Lanakila]] in [[Alola]]. Four more groups reside at the Pokémon Leagues in {{si|Pokémon League|Sinnoh}}, {{un|Pokémon League|Unova}}, {{kal|Pokémon League|Kalos}}, and {{pal|Pokémon League|Paldea}}.

In the games, they use strong {{cat|medicine}} items in battles. In [[Generation II]], they use [[Max Potion]]s, and from [[Generation III]] onwards, they use [[Full Restore]]s. Like [[Gym Leader]]s, they typically specialize in Pokémon of a particular [[type]]. Prior to [[Generation V]] and in [[Generation IX]], the Elite Four typically progresses in [[level]] with their Pokémon in the games and must be challenged in a set order. From Generation V to Generation VII, all members of the Elite Four (except in [[remake]]s) use Pokémon of the same levels, as they can be challenged in any order.

In [[Generation VIII]], the [[Galar League|Pokémon League]] in the [[Galar]] region uses the Champion Cup tournament instead of an Elite Four.

==In the core series games==
===Indigo Elite Four===
At the [[Indigo Plateau]] — the site of the Pokémon League in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] — the Elite Four must be battled in a fixed order.

====Generations I, III, and VII====
In the [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}} {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}} ({{game4|Red|Green|Blue|Yellow}} in Japan), the [[Generation III]] games {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and the [[Generation VII]] games [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the Elite Four at [[Indigo Plateau]] consists of:

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Puzzle League===
[[Pokémon Puzzle League]] features its own Elite Four: [[Ritchie]], [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and {{Gary}}. Gary serves as the leader of the Elite Four and the Puzzle League Champion.

By defeating each of them, the player is rewarded with an Elite Medal. Playing on Hard Level, Gary is the last challenge and on Super Hard, {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} is the last challenge after the player becomes the {{pkmn|Champion}}.

{{-}}

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Sinnoh Elite Four.png|thumb|250px|The Sinnoh Elite Four in the anime]]
In the [[Pokémon anime]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} infrequently meet Elite Four members, who then impart them with battle strategies. In ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', [[Lucian]] revealed that when a Trainer wins their respective region's {{pkmn|League Conference}}, they can participate in the {{DL|Pokémon League|Champion League}}, fighting the members of that region's Elite Four, and, if victorious against them, the regional {{pkmn|Champion}} as well. It has also been shown that an Elite Four member can challenge the Champion for their title.

====Kanto Elite Four====
In [[Kanto]], Ash has met the entire original Elite Four roster:
* [[Bruno]] was the first Elite Four member to appear in the anime (excluding [[Koga]], who was later promoted to be one in [[Generation II]]), in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''.
* [[Lorelei]] appeared in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]'', but she is named "Prima" in the English [[dub]].
* {{an|Lance}} debuted in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'', where he was mentioned to be the {{pkmn|Champion}} rather than a regular member of the Elite Four. He is referred to as a member of the Elite Four in ''[[JN012|Flash of the Titans!]]''. From ''[[JN109|Aim For The Eight!]]'' onwards, he's referred to as the Champion once again, with him being mentioned to have claimed that title recently.
* [[Agatha]] appeared in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'', where she was acting as a temporary [[Gym Leader]] for the [[Viridian Gym]].
** [[Koga]], though not an Elite Four member, debuted in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', where he had a Gym battle against Ash.

====Hoenn Elite Four====
In [[Hoenn]], Ash has met only one Elite Four member:
* [[Drake]] appeared in ''[[AG101|Vanity Affair]]'', where he invited Ash and his friends to his boat, where he had a battle with Ash. He reappeared in ''[[JN088|Looking Out for Number Two!]]'', where he was shown to have become a treasure hunter in addition to his Elite Four duties.

====Sinnoh Elite Four====
In [[Sinnoh]], Ash has also met the entire Elite Four roster:
* [[Lucian]] debuted in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', where he had a battle with {{an|Dawn}}, using his {{p|Bronzong}} against her {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}. He also helped her to deal with Buizel's [[obedience]] issues.
* [[Aaron]] debuted in ''[[DP099|A Trainer and Child Reunion!]]'', where he was seen training to challenge {{an|Cynthia}}.
* [[Flint]] debuted in ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', where he had a battle with Ash, using his {{TP|Flint|Infernape}} against his {{AP|Buizel}}, {{AP|Infernape}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* [[Bertha]] appeared in ''[[DP170|An Elite Coverup!]]'', where she taught Ash and Dawn how observation skills can be useful in {{pkmn|battle}}s and [[Pokémon Contest]]s. She's the only member of the Sinnoh Elite Four to never be seen battling Cynthia.

====Unova Elite Four====
In [[Unova]], Ash has also met only one Elite Four member:
* [[Caitlin]] debuted in ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', where she faced off against {{an|Cynthia}} during an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}} of the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]].

====Kalos Elite Four====
[[File:Wikstrom and Drasna.png|thumb|250px|Wikstrom and Drasna; two members of Kalos Elite Four]]
In [[Kalos]], the entire Elite Four roster has appeared, with Ash having met three of them. Unlike the games, all members of the Elite Four of Kalos have at least one Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]]:
* [[Siebold]] appeared in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where he used his {{me|Blastoise}} to battle [[Alain]] and his Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X.
* [[Wikstrom]] first appeared in a cameo in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'', in which he was seen battling [[Diantha]], using his Mega {{p|Scizor}} against her Mega {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}}. He made his main series debut in ''[[JN056|Searching for Chivalry!]]'', in which Ash met him for the first time when he visited the [[Castle of Chivalry]] in order to train with his {{AP|Farfetch'd}}.
* [[Malva]] debuted in ''[[XY092|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'' in a video transmission. Ash didn't meet her until ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', where he was interviewed by her. Like in the games, she's featured as a member of [[Team Flare]], but ends up opposing [[Lysandre]] when his big plan is put into action.
* [[Drasna]] appeared in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]'' and ''[[JN104|Taking Two For The Team!]]''. She battled Ash in a [[World Coronation Series]] match at the [[Lumiose Conference]] stadium and ultimately lost, marking the first time Ash has defeated an Elite Four member.

====Alola Elite Four====
In [[Alola]], Ash has met the entire Elite Four rosters from both the {{pkmn|Sun and Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} paired versions, though none of them presented themselves as such, because the Alola League was not established until ''[[SM115|The Dealer of Destruction!]]'' in the anime:
* [[Hala]] debuted in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', where he led Ash to [[Verdant Cavern]] so he could start his [[island challenge]].
* [[Olivia]] debuted in ''[[SM031|The Island Whisperer!]]'', where she took Ash and his classmates to [[Akala Island]] and began hosting them during their stay there.
* [[Acerola]] debuted in ''[[SM073|Why Not Give Me a Z-Ring Sometime?]]'', though Ash didn't meet her until the [[SM074|next episode]], where she assisted him in his first battle against [[Nanu]].
* [[Molayne]] debuted in ''[[SM079|Showering the World with Love!]]'', where he showed Ash and his classmates around the [[Hokulani Observatory]].
* [[Kahili]] debuted in ''[[SM110|Keeping Your Eyes on the Ball!]]'', where she took Ash and his classmates to a Pokémon Golf course and taught them the sport. She later participated in the [[Manalo Conference]], but lost in the preliminary round.

====Paldea Elite Four====
* [[Larry]] debuted in a background cameo during a flashback in [[HZ018]].

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Elite Four PO.png|thumb|220px|The Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
The members of the Kanto Elite Four made brief appearances in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]''. {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was shown defeating all four members, allowing him to move on to face the {{pkmn|Champion|Pokémon League Champion}}, {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Kanto Elite Four Adventures.png|110px|thumb|Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
The Kanto Elite Four, consisting of [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], [[Lance]], and [[Agatha]], made their debut in ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', watching the final battle between {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}}.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
The Kanto Elite Four served as the primary antagonists for this arc, seeking to wipe out most of humanity in order to create a utopia for Pokémon. They are each said to be so powerful that the triad leaders of [[Team Rocket]], [[Koga]], [[Lt. Surge]], and [[Sabrina]], all had to begrudgingly team up with the protagonists and [[Blaine]] to take just a single one of them at their base of operations on [[Cerise Island]].

===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
The Johto Elite Four is formed at the end of this arc, following the defeat of the [[Masked Man]]. It consists of accomplished Pokémon Trainers that were formerly part of criminal organizations, who would eventually rise as the official Elite Four of [[Indigo Plateau]]. [[Will]], Bruno, [[Karen]], and Koga united to train together after they were no longer being controlled.

===={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}====
[[File:Hoenn Elite Four Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Hoenn Elite Four in Pokémon Adventures]]
The Hoenn Elite Four, consisting of [[Sidney]], [[Phoebe]], [[Glacia]], and [[Drake]], made an appearance in this arc, helping to find and catch the {{TP|Brandon|Legendary giants}} in order to contain the massive surge of energy created by the clash of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} alongside {{Steven}} and [[Wallace]], their two regional {{pkmn|Champion}}s. It is also during the Hoenn Elite Four's appearance that the challenge of the Elite Four and Champion was mentioned as having replaced a knockout tournament to determine the best Trainer in the region.

===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
The first Sinnoh Elite Four member to debut in the series was [[Flint]], who made a cameo appearance in the last chapter of this arc.

===={{MangaArc|Platinum}}====
[[Aaron]], [[Bertha]], and [[Lucian]] debuted in this arc, where they were enlisted by the [[Pokémon Association]] Chairman to decode the ancient writings in [[Charon]]'s memobook. Meanwhile, Flint accompanied [[Volkner]] to the [[Distortion World]] so that they could battle {{p|Giratina}} for their own amusement.

===={{MangaArc|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}====
The Johto Elite Four reappeared in this arc, where they faced {{adv|Gold}} in various [[Pokéathlon]] events and later fought [[Lance's Dragonite]] when it went berserk.

===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Unova Elite Four first appeared in this arc as {{adv|Black}} cited them during his daily pledge. However, they never appeared to the main characters as a group. Besides [[Caitlin]], who already appeared in the ''Platinum'' arc, [[Grimsley]] met Black on {{rt|4|Unova}}, [[Shauntal]] met {{adv|White}} aboard the [[Battle Subway]], and [[Marshal]] met both in [[Nimbasa City]]. All four converged for the duration of the {{un|Pokémon League|Unova League}} tournament that would have determined the Trainer that would challenge them. They also participated in the battle against [[Team Plasma]] and the {{adv|Forces of Nature}} when [[N's Castle]] rose from the ground.

===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
The first Kalos Elite Four member to appear is [[Malva]], who appeared in person in this arc. [[Drasna]], [[Wikstrom]], and [[Siebold]] were mentioned by [[Diantha]] during her conversation with [[Gurkinn]] and [[Korrina]]. Siebold later appeared in the [[Lost Hotel]], cooking a meal for {{adv|X}} and {{adv|Y}}'s friends, as a way of apologizing for his lack of participation against [[Team Flare]]. Wikstrom and Drasna later appeared in person, assisting X and Y's group in their quest to stop Team Flare. Drasna gave them information about {{adv|Zygarde}} and Wikstrom used his {{p|Probopass}} to guide them to Team Flare's hideout at the [[Pokémon Village]]. Malva, bearing a searing hatred for Diantha, battled against the Kalos Champion twice over the course of the arc.

===={{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}====
While never actually forming, the members comprising the Alola Elite Four appear individually throughout the arc. [[Hala]] and [[Olivia]] debuted in ''[[PASM02|The Delivery of Rotom and the Girl]]'', discussing the sightings of the [[guardian deities]] around Alola with [[Nanu]]. [[Kahili]] debuted in ''[[PASM10|Defeat and the Commander of the School of Fish]]'', coming back to Alola and speculating the [[Ultra Beast]]s were the source of the guardian deities' rage. In ''[[PASM15|Shipwreck and "Oh, What Sharp Teeth You Have, Bruxish!"]]'', [[Acerola]] found an unconscious {{adv|Sun}} and [[Lillie]] on a beach and took them to the [[Aether House]] to recuperate. Molayne debuted in ''[[PASM19|Truth and the Mastermind Behind Team Skull]]'', helping innocent civilians escape from the Ultra Beasts wreaking havoc on [[Ula'ula Island]].

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[Flint]] appeared in ''[[DPA24|Hareta's Heart's Desire]]'' as a participant to the {{si|Pokémon League}} tournament, but chose to forfeit when he was overwhelmed by the power of [[Hareta's Regigigas]]. The rest of the Sinnoh Elite Four made a cameo while watching the battle.

===Pokémon Zensho===
The Kanto Elite Four members appeared in ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'', where all of them were defeated by {{Zensho|Satoshi}}, allowing him to face the Champion, {{Zensho|Shigeru}}.
{{left clear}}

==Trivia==
* The only [[type]]s that have yet to be specialized in by any Elite Four member are {{t|Normal}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fairy}}.
** Though [[Larry]] of the [[Paldea]] Elite Four specializes in the Normal type, he only does so as a [[Gym Leader]], not as an Elite Four member.
* The most common type specializations for members of the Elite Four are {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Dragon}}, with four individuals specializing in each type.
** Every Ghost-type Elite Four member is female. Conversely, every Dragon-type Elite Four member is male except [[Drasna]].
* {{p|Bronzong}} is the Pokémon used most frequently by Elite Four members, being used by four of them: [[Will]], [[Lucian]], [[Caitlin]], and [[Poppy]].
** Of these, Poppy is the only one who does not specialize in {{t|Psychic}} types, instead specializing in {{t|Steel}} types.
* In {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the battles against [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and [[Agatha]] use the standard {{pkmn|Trainer}} battle theme. The battle against [[Lance]], however, uses the usual Gym Leader battle theme.
** In the [[remake]]s, the Gym Leader battle theme plays in the battles with all members of the Elite Four.
* In the [[Kanto]]-based games:
** The Elite Four's specialty types are the ones that were the least common Pokémon types in [[Generation I]].
** Every Elite Four member has at least one Pokémon not of their specialty type in their initial battle.
* The Kalos Elite Four members are the only ones who do not have higher level Pokémon in future rematches with them in any game.
** Additionally, they are the only ones who use just four Pokémon in rematches with them. All other Elite Four members use either five or six Pokémon during rematches.
* The Indigo, Sinnoh, and Kalos Elite Four are the only Elite Four of which all members have appeared in the anime.
** All members of the Alola Elite Four have also appeared in the anime. However, they did not appear as Elite Four members, since the Alola Pokémon League was not established at the time.
* The Alola Elite Four is the only Elite Four with more female than male members.
* {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} are the only core series games to feature a Pokémon League but not an Elite Four. Instead, the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]] takes its place.
* The Paldea Elite Four is the only Elite Four to have members who do not take part in rematches against the player. The only members who do take part in rematches are [[Hassel]] and Larry. However, Larry can only be rematched once as a Gym Leader, where he specializes in Normal types instead of {{t|Flying}} types. Additionally, none of the rematches take place in the Paldea Pokémon League.
** The type specialties of the Paldea Elite Four are the types of the [[Titan Pokémon]]. The Stony Cliff Titan's type is filled in by [[Geeta]], who [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallizes]] her {{p|Glimmora}} into the Rock type.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], the English names of the Elite Four are puns based on their respective specialized types. From [[Generation VII]] onwards, they all possess flora-based names similar to the [[Pokémon Professor]]s. The same applies to each region's Gym Leaders.
* Except for [[Unova]], at least one Elite Four representative from each region introduced up to [[Generation VIII]] appeared in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
* The Unova Elite Four are the only Elite Four where all members have at least one type advantage over another.

===Name origin===
The Japanese name of the Elite Four literally translates to the ''{{wp|Four Heavenly Kings}}'', a term of Buddhist origins that refers to the group of four {{wp|devas|guardian deities}} presiding over each of the four cardinal directions. By extension, it connotes an ensemble of four leaders in a particular field, akin to the {{wp|Big Four}} in English.

The English translation of "the big four" had also appeared in the Japanese and Korean version of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

Elite Four

Immblueversion: /* BB Elite Four */

[[File:LGPE Elite Four.png|thumb|300px|Artwork of {{ga|Chase}} and {{ga|Elaine}} confronting the Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]]]
The '''Elite Four''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|四天王|してんのう}}''' ''The Big Four'') are four [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who are regarded as the toughest in their [[region]]al [[Pokémon League]], just short of the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. Those who challenge the Elite Four must have won all eight [[Badge]]s from that region (or, for Trainers in [[Alola]], must have completed all of their [[island challenge]] trials). To become Champion, Trainers must face all four and the current Champion consecutively without losing to any of them. Challengers who lose at any time must start their challenge from the beginning. In [[Paldea]], the challenge is named the Elite Test, and is part of the greater Champion Assessment.

One group resides at the [[Indigo Plateau]] in [[Kanto]] and are considered the best Trainers in both Kanto and [[Johto]]. Another group is located in [[Ever Grande City]] in [[Hoenn]], while another is located on [[Mount Lanakila]] in [[Alola]]. Four more groups reside at the Pokémon Leagues in {{si|Pokémon League|Sinnoh}}, {{un|Pokémon League|Unova}}, {{kal|Pokémon League|Kalos}}, and {{pal|Pokémon League|Paldea}}.

In the games, they use strong {{cat|medicine}} items in battles. In [[Generation II]], they use [[Max Potion]]s, and from [[Generation III]] onwards, they use [[Full Restore]]s. Like [[Gym Leader]]s, they typically specialize in Pokémon of a particular [[type]]. Prior to [[Generation V]] and in [[Generation IX]], the Elite Four typically progresses in [[level]] with their Pokémon in the games and must be challenged in a set order. From Generation V to Generation VII, all members of the Elite Four (except in [[remake]]s) use Pokémon of the same levels, as they can be challenged in any order.

In [[Generation VIII]], the [[Galar League|Pokémon League]] in the [[Galar]] region uses the Champion Cup tournament instead of an Elite Four.

==In the core series games==
===Indigo Elite Four===
At the [[Indigo Plateau]] — the site of the Pokémon League in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] — the Elite Four must be battled in a fixed order.

===Pokémon Trading Card Game series===
In {{OBP|Pokémon Trading Card Game|video game}} and [[Pokémon Trading Card Game 2: The Invasion of Team GR!]], there is a group composed of powerful four members called the [[Grand Master]]s, who are the counterpart of the Elite Four in these games. Defeating them earns the player the Legendary Cards.
{{-}}

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Sinnoh Elite Four.png|thumb|250px|The Sinnoh Elite Four in the anime]]
In the [[Pokémon anime]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} infrequently meet Elite Four members, who then impart them with battle strategies. In ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', [[Lucian]] revealed that when a Trainer wins their respective region's {{pkmn|League Conference}}, they can participate in the {{DL|Pokémon League|Champion League}}, fighting the members of that region's Elite Four, and, if victorious against them, the regional {{pkmn|Champion}} as well. It has also been shown that an Elite Four member can challenge the Champion for their title.

====Kanto Elite Four====
In [[Kanto]], Ash has met the entire original Elite Four roster:
* [[Bruno]] was the first Elite Four member to appear in the anime (excluding [[Koga]], who was later promoted to be one in [[Generation II]]), in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''.
* [[Lorelei]] appeared in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]'', but she is named "Prima" in the English [[dub]].
* {{an|Lance}} debuted in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'', where he was mentioned to be the {{pkmn|Champion}} rather than a regular member of the Elite Four. He is referred to as a member of the Elite Four in ''[[JN012|Flash of the Titans!]]''. From ''[[JN109|Aim For The Eight!]]'' onwards, he's referred to as the Champion once again, with him being mentioned to have claimed that title recently.
* [[Agatha]] appeared in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'', where she was acting as a temporary [[Gym Leader]] for the [[Viridian Gym]].
** [[Koga]], though not an Elite Four member, debuted in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', where he had a Gym battle against Ash.

====Hoenn Elite Four====
In [[Hoenn]], Ash has met only one Elite Four member:
* [[Drake]] appeared in ''[[AG101|Vanity Affair]]'', where he invited Ash and his friends to his boat, where he had a battle with Ash. He reappeared in ''[[JN088|Looking Out for Number Two!]]'', where he was shown to have become a treasure hunter in addition to his Elite Four duties.

====Sinnoh Elite Four====
In [[Sinnoh]], Ash has also met the entire Elite Four roster:
* [[Lucian]] debuted in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', where he had a battle with {{an|Dawn}}, using his {{p|Bronzong}} against her {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}. He also helped her to deal with Buizel's [[obedience]] issues.
* [[Aaron]] debuted in ''[[DP099|A Trainer and Child Reunion!]]'', where he was seen training to challenge {{an|Cynthia}}.
* [[Flint]] debuted in ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', where he had a battle with Ash, using his {{TP|Flint|Infernape}} against his {{AP|Buizel}}, {{AP|Infernape}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* [[Bertha]] appeared in ''[[DP170|An Elite Coverup!]]'', where she taught Ash and Dawn how observation skills can be useful in {{pkmn|battle}}s and [[Pokémon Contest]]s. She's the only member of the Sinnoh Elite Four to never be seen battling Cynthia.

====Unova Elite Four====
In [[Unova]], Ash has also met only one Elite Four member:
* [[Caitlin]] debuted in ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', where she faced off against {{an|Cynthia}} during an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}} of the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]].

====Kalos Elite Four====
[[File:Wikstrom and Drasna.png|thumb|250px|Wikstrom and Drasna; two members of Kalos Elite Four]]
In [[Kalos]], the entire Elite Four roster has appeared, with Ash having met three of them. Unlike the games, all members of the Elite Four of Kalos have at least one Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]]:
* [[Siebold]] appeared in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where he used his {{me|Blastoise}} to battle [[Alain]] and his Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X.
* [[Wikstrom]] first appeared in a cameo in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'', in which he was seen battling [[Diantha]], using his Mega {{p|Scizor}} against her Mega {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}}. He made his main series debut in ''[[JN056|Searching for Chivalry!]]'', in which Ash met him for the first time when he visited the [[Castle of Chivalry]] in order to train with his {{AP|Farfetch'd}}.
* [[Malva]] debuted in ''[[XY092|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'' in a video transmission. Ash didn't meet her until ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', where he was interviewed by her. Like in the games, she's featured as a member of [[Team Flare]], but ends up opposing [[Lysandre]] when his big plan is put into action.
* [[Drasna]] appeared in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]'' and ''[[JN104|Taking Two For The Team!]]''. She battled Ash in a [[World Coronation Series]] match at the [[Lumiose Conference]] stadium and ultimately lost, marking the first time Ash has defeated an Elite Four member.

====Alola Elite Four====
In [[Alola]], Ash has met the entire Elite Four rosters from both the {{pkmn|Sun and Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} paired versions, though none of them presented themselves as such, because the Alola League was not established until ''[[SM115|The Dealer of Destruction!]]'' in the anime:
* [[Hala]] debuted in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', where he led Ash to [[Verdant Cavern]] so he could start his [[island challenge]].
* [[Olivia]] debuted in ''[[SM031|The Island Whisperer!]]'', where she took Ash and his classmates to [[Akala Island]] and began hosting them during their stay there.
* [[Acerola]] debuted in ''[[SM073|Why Not Give Me a Z-Ring Sometime?]]'', though Ash didn't meet her until the [[SM074|next episode]], where she assisted him in his first battle against [[Nanu]].
* [[Molayne]] debuted in ''[[SM079|Showering the World with Love!]]'', where he showed Ash and his classmates around the [[Hokulani Observatory]].
* [[Kahili]] debuted in ''[[SM110|Keeping Your Eyes on the Ball!]]'', where she took Ash and his classmates to a Pokémon Golf course and taught them the sport. She later participated in the [[Manalo Conference]], but lost in the preliminary round.

====Paldea Elite Four====
* [[Larry]] debuted in a background cameo during a flashback in [[HZ018]].

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Kanto Elite Four Adventures.png|110px|thumb|Kanto Elite Four in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
The Kanto Elite Four, consisting of [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], [[Lance]], and [[Agatha]], made their debut in ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', watching the final battle between {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}}.

===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
The Kanto Elite Four served as the primary antagonists for this arc, seeking to wipe out most of humanity in order to create a utopia for Pokémon. They are each said to be so powerful that the triad leaders of [[Team Rocket]], [[Koga]], [[Lt. Surge]], and [[Sabrina]], all had to begrudgingly team up with the protagonists and [[Blaine]] to take just a single one of them at their base of operations on [[Cerise Island]].

===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
The Johto Elite Four is formed at the end of this arc, following the defeat of the [[Masked Man]]. It consists of accomplished Pokémon Trainers that were formerly part of criminal organizations, who would eventually rise as the official Elite Four of [[Indigo Plateau]]. [[Will]], Bruno, [[Karen]], and Koga united to train together after they were no longer being controlled.

===={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}====
[[File:Hoenn Elite Four Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Hoenn Elite Four in Pokémon Adventures]]
The Hoenn Elite Four, consisting of [[Sidney]], [[Phoebe]], [[Glacia]], and [[Drake]], made an appearance in this arc, helping to find and catch the {{TP|Brandon|Legendary giants}} in order to contain the massive surge of energy created by the clash of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} alongside {{Steven}} and [[Wallace]], their two regional {{pkmn|Champion}}s. It is also during the Hoenn Elite Four's appearance that the challenge of the Elite Four and Champion was mentioned as having replaced a knockout tournament to determine the best Trainer in the region.

===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
The first Sinnoh Elite Four member to debut in the series was [[Flint]], who made a cameo appearance in the last chapter of this arc.

===={{MangaArc|Platinum}}====
[[Aaron]], [[Bertha]], and [[Lucian]] debuted in this arc, where they were enlisted by the [[Pokémon Association]] Chairman to decode the ancient writings in [[Charon]]'s memobook. Meanwhile, Flint accompanied [[Volkner]] to the [[Distortion World]] so that they could battle {{p|Giratina}} for their own amusement.

===={{MangaArc|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}====
The Johto Elite Four reappeared in this arc, where they faced {{adv|Gold}} in various [[Pokéathlon]] events and later fought [[Lance's Dragonite]] when it went berserk.

===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Unova Elite Four first appeared in this arc as {{adv|Black}} cited them during his daily pledge. However, they never appeared to the main characters as a group. Besides [[Caitlin]], who already appeared in the ''Platinum'' arc, [[Grimsley]] met Black on {{rt|4|Unova}}, [[Shauntal]] met {{adv|White}} aboard the [[Battle Subway]], and [[Marshal]] met both in [[Nimbasa City]]. All four converged for the duration of the {{un|Pokémon League|Unova League}} tournament that would have determined the Trainer that would challenge them. They also participated in the battle against [[Team Plasma]] and the {{adv|Forces of Nature}} when [[N's Castle]] rose from the ground.

===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
The first Kalos Elite Four member to appear is [[Malva]], who appeared in person in this arc. [[Drasna]], [[Wikstrom]], and [[Siebold]] were mentioned by [[Diantha]] during her conversation with [[Gurkinn]] and [[Korrina]]. Siebold later appeared in the [[Lost Hotel]], cooking a meal for {{adv|X}} and {{adv|Y}}'s friends, as a way of apologizing for his lack of participation against [[Team Flare]]. Wikstrom and Drasna later appeared in person, assisting X and Y's group in their quest to stop Team Flare. Drasna gave them information about {{adv|Zygarde}} and Wikstrom used his {{p|Probopass}} to guide them to Team Flare's hideout at the [[Pokémon Village]]. Malva, bearing a searing hatred for Diantha, battled against the Kalos Champion twice over the course of the arc.

===={{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}====
While never actually forming, the members comprising the Alola Elite Four appear individually throughout the arc. [[Hala]] and [[Olivia]] debuted in ''[[PASM02|The Delivery of Rotom and the Girl]]'', discussing the sightings of the [[guardian deities]] around Alola with [[Nanu]]. [[Kahili]] debuted in ''[[PASM10|Defeat and the Commander of the School of Fish]]'', coming back to Alola and speculating the [[Ultra Beast]]s were the source of the guardian deities' rage. In ''[[PASM15|Shipwreck and "Oh, What Sharp Teeth You Have, Bruxish!"]]'', [[Acerola]] found an unconscious {{adv|Sun}} and [[Lillie]] on a beach and took them to the [[Aether House]] to recuperate. Molayne debuted in ''[[PASM19|Truth and the Mastermind Behind Team Skull]]'', helping innocent civilians escape from the Ultra Beasts wreaking havoc on [[Ula'ula Island]].

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[Flint]] appeared in ''[[DPA24|Hareta's Heart's Desire]]'' as a participant to the {{si|Pokémon League}} tournament, but chose to forfeit when he was overwhelmed by the power of [[Hareta's Regigigas]]. The rest of the Sinnoh Elite Four made a cameo while watching the battle.

===Pokémon Zensho===
The Kanto Elite Four members appeared in ''[[PZ10|Indigo Plateau]]'', where all of them were defeated by {{Zensho|Satoshi}}, allowing him to face the Champion, {{Zensho|Shigeru}}.
{{left clear}}

==Trivia==
* The only [[type]]s that have yet to be specialized in by any Elite Four member are {{t|Normal}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fairy}}.
** Though [[Larry]] of the [[Paldea]] Elite Four specializes in the Normal type, he only does so as a [[Gym Leader]], not as an Elite Four member.
* The most common type specializations for members of the Elite Four are {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Dragon}}, with four individuals specializing in each type.
** Every Ghost-type Elite Four member is female. Conversely, every Dragon-type Elite Four member is male except [[Drasna]].
* {{p|Bronzong}} is the Pokémon used most frequently by Elite Four members, being used by four of them: [[Will]], [[Lucian]], [[Caitlin]], and [[Poppy]].
** Of these, Poppy is the only one who does not specialize in {{t|Psychic}} types, instead specializing in {{t|Steel}} types.
* In {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the battles against [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and [[Agatha]] use the standard {{pkmn|Trainer}} battle theme. The battle against [[Lance]], however, uses the usual Gym Leader battle theme.
** In the [[remake]]s, the Gym Leader battle theme plays in the battles with all members of the Elite Four.
* In the [[Kanto]]-based games:
** The Elite Four's specialty types are the ones that were the least common Pokémon types in [[Generation I]].
** Every Elite Four member has at least one Pokémon not of their specialty type in their initial battle.
* The Kalos Elite Four members are the only ones who do not have higher level Pokémon in future rematches with them in any game.
** Additionally, they are the only ones who use just four Pokémon in rematches with them. All other Elite Four members use either five or six Pokémon during rematches.
* The Indigo, Sinnoh, and Kalos Elite Four are the only Elite Four of which all members have appeared in the anime.
** All members of the Alola Elite Four have also appeared in the anime. However, they did not appear as Elite Four members, since the Alola Pokémon League was not established at the time.
* The Alola Elite Four is the only Elite Four with more female than male members.
* {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} are the only core series games to feature a Pokémon League but not an Elite Four. Instead, the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]] takes its place.
* The Paldea Elite Four is the only Elite Four to have members who do not take part in rematches against the player. The only members who do take part in rematches are [[Hassel]] and Larry. However, Larry can only be rematched once as a Gym Leader, where he specializes in Normal types instead of {{t|Flying}} types. Additionally, none of the rematches take place in the Paldea Pokémon League.
** The type specialties of the Paldea Elite Four are the types of the [[Titan Pokémon]]. The Stony Cliff Titan's type is filled in by [[Geeta]], who [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallizes]] her {{p|Glimmora}} into the Rock type.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], the English names of the Elite Four are puns based on their respective specialized types. From [[Generation VII]] onwards, they all possess flora-based names similar to the [[Pokémon Professor]]s. The same applies to each region's Gym Leaders.
* Except for [[Unova]], at least one Elite Four representative from each region introduced up to [[Generation VIII]] appeared in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
* The Unova Elite Four are the only Elite Four where all members have at least one type advantage over another.

===Name origin===
The Japanese name of the Elite Four literally translates to the ''{{wp|Four Heavenly Kings}}'', a term of Buddhist origins that refers to the group of four {{wp|devas|guardian deities}} presiding over each of the four cardinal directions. By extension, it connotes an ensemble of four leaders in a particular field, akin to the {{wp|Big Four}} in English.

The English translation of "the big four" had also appeared in the Japanese and Korean version of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

'''Dot's Quaxly''' (Japanese: '''ドットのクワッス''' ''Dot's Kuwassu''), or '''Nidothing's Quaxly''' (Japanese: '''ぐるみんのクワッス''' ''Gurumin's Kuwassu''), is the [[Starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] that [[Dot]] owns. {{p|Quaxly}} takes part in her videos to teach young viewers on basic knowledge on how to become a [[Pokémon Trainer]]. It is usually [[Walking Pokémon|outside]] its {{i|Poké Ball}}.

==History==
===Pre-series===
Prior to the series, Quaxly was a [[wild Pokémon]] living in the [[Brave Olivine]] alongside of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Eventually, it formed a close bond with [[Ludlow]] and [[Dot]]. It usually kept Ludlow company when he was [[fishing]] or participated in Nidothing's videos.

===''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''===
====As a wild Pokémon====
[[File:Ludlow and Dot Quaxly.png|thumb|left|250px|Quaxly and Ludlow]]
Quaxly first debuted in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All: Part One]]'' accompanied by Nidothing, assisting with her videos about how to be a Pokémon [[Trainer]]. In [[HZ002|the following episode]], Quaxly could be seen again panicking as the Rising Volt Tacklers were traveling through a thunderstorm, heading in Dot's room for safety.

In ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', after the encounter of the [[Shiny Pokémon|Black]] {{p|Rayquaza}}, Quaxly found the tracker, that the [[Explorers]] had [[HZ003|previously]] placed on the bottom the [[Brave Olivine]] and gave it to [[Ludlow]], revealing how they had found the group's location before destroying it.

In [[HZ007]], [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] tried to introduce themselves to Dot. As they were waiting for a response on the other side of the door, coming out from the flap of the door was Quaxly, suprising Liko. Quaxly gave Liko and Roy a Dot's message as they were asking her for help in knowing how to get better at [[Pokémon battles]]. Later, Quaxly again came out from the flap, this time surprising Roy. Quaxly gave both of them a clue to where the Black Rayquaza was hinted to be last seen.

In [[HZ013]], with the help of [[Murdock]], Liko gave Ludlow and Dot the opportunity to have a chance of experiencing a [[picnic]], though Dot was hesitant to give a chance, Quaxly gave her a sincere smile and encouraged Dot to come out of her room to make her own [[sandwich]]. Quaxly as usual, attended the event with Ludlow and Dot.
[[File:Dot and Quaxly.png|thumb|250px|Quaxly and Dot]]
In [[HZ015]], when Liko disappeared, Dot personally volunteered to help search for her. When asked by [[Friede]] if she has a Pokémon in mind that would be ready to enter a Pokémon battle, Quaxly volunteered to battle alongside Dot as her partner.

====With Dot====
In [[HZ016]], Quaxly was officially caught as Dot's [[Starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]]. It participated in its first battle against [[Spinel]]'s Pokémon with the aid of Liko, Roy, and their respective partners, with Quaxly assisting Sprigatito in defeating Magneton. Afterwards, it encouraged Dot to reveal her true identity as Nidothing to Liko, one of her fans, after several previous failures.

In [[HZ027]], Quaxly accompanied Dot and other members of the Team to collect ingredients for a [[curry]] cook off between Liko and Roy. It used Water Gun to scare off a group of {{p|Skwovet}} and {{p|Greedent}} that attacked Roy and Fuecoco. Afterwards, it happily ate curry alongside its Trainer and the other Rising Volt Tacklers after the curry cook off had been counted as a draw.
{{-}}

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Quaxly Slapping Roy Hand.png|thumb|250px|left|Quaxly slapping Roy's hand]]
As their {{p|Quaxly|species}} are known for, Quaxly loves to be clean and dislikes being dirty, as seen in [[HZ007]], when [[Roy]] attempted to touch the Duckling Pokémon, but unexpectedly got his hand slapped by it. Quaxly has also been shown to be outgoing as it often accompanies [[Ludlow]] and watches the rest of the members of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. In addition, Quaxly has shown to be friendly, as it befriended [[Liko's Sprigatito]] and [[Roy's Fuecoco]] right away.
[[File:Liko Sprigatito Roy Fuecoco Dot Quaxly.png|thumb|250px|Quaxly and its friends]]
In addition to Ludlow, Quaxly seems to be loyal to Dot, not needing to be called by her when needed in her room. Quaxly is also a voice of reason for Dot, encouraging her to participate in social interactions and other situations she usually avoids. Quaxly even chose Dot to be its Trainer, as seen in [[HZ016]]. Its closeness to Dot has been seen when it would sit on her shoulders.

Behind the scene of their livestream in [[HZ008]], Quaxly can be seen being skeptical when Dot fumbles or gives generic advice. Quaxly acts like a director, keeping Dot focused on the streams, avoiding a potential break in character live or when making videos.

Quaxly is seen to be shown aware of its surroundings. Seen in [[HZ016]], before {{p|Arboliva}}'s Ancient [[Poké Ball]] shined, Quaxly sensed something strange when the van that [[Spinel]] was operating went past Liko, Roy, and Dot. Even sneakily hiding next to the kitchen door after Friede thought the close was clear in [[HZ008]].

==Trivia==
* Quaxly is the first [[Generation IX|concurrent]] {{type|Water}} {{pkmn2|starter}} to not be owned by a main character.
* Quaxly is the only [[Paldea]] starter to have been obtained or caught in its main [[region]], which is ironic considering that Quaxly's Scarlet Pokédex entry says the species is originally foreign from Paldea.

Quaxly is also a voice of reason for Dot, encouraging her to participate in social interactions and other situations she usually avoids. Quaxly even chose Dot to be its Trainer, as seen in [[HZ016]]. Its closeness to Dot has been seen when it would sit on her shoulders.

Behind the scene of their livestream in [[HZ008]], Quaxly can be seen being skeptical when Dot fumbles or gives generic advice. Quaxly acts like a director, keeping Dot focused on the streams, avoiding a potential break in character live or when making videos.

Quaxly is seen to be shown aware of its surroundings. Seen in [[HZ016]], before {{p|Arboliva}}'s Ancient [[Poké Ball]] shined, Quaxly sensed something strange when the van that [[Spinel]] was operating went past Liko, Roy, and Dot. Even sneakily hiding next to the kitchen door after Friede thought the close was clear in [[HZ008]].

==Trivia==
* Quaxly is the first [[Generation IX|concurrent]] {{type|Water}} {{pkmn2|starter}} to not be owned by a main character.
* Quaxly is the only [[Paldea]] starter to have been obtained or caught in its main [[region]], which is ironic considering that Quaxly's Scarlet Pokédex entry says the species is originally foreign from Paldea.

Pokéblock

2023-09-25T15:19:28Z

Immblueversion: /* In the anime */

[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Pokéblock Case.png|thumb|100px|A Pokéblock Case in Generation VI]]
'''Pokéblocks''' (Japanese: '''ポロック''' ''Polock'') are colorful candy blocks made for Pokémon and are primarily used to increase a Pokémon's [[Contest condition|condition]] for [[Pokémon Contest]]s{{sup/3|RSE}} or Pokémon Contest Spectaculars{{sup/6|ORAS}} in [[Hoenn]] in one of five areas: [[Cool (condition)|Coolness]], [[Beautiful (condition)|Beauty]], [[Cute (condition)|Cuteness]], [[Clever (condition)|Cleverness]], and [[Tough (condition)|Toughness]]. In [[Sinnoh]], the equivalent of Pokéblocks are [[Poffin]]s.

==In the core series==
Pokéblocks are used to prepare a Pokémon for contests by raising its condition in the appropriate category or categories. The better a Pokémon's condition is in the category it is participating in, the better it will do in the contest's preliminary judging. In [[Generation III]], Pokéblocks can also be used in the {{safari|Hoenn}}, to attract Pokémon of certain [[Nature]]s by placing Pokéblocks in feeders or to make wild Pokémon less likely to escape in battle, by throwing Pokéblocks at them.

A [[Pokéblock Case]] is required before Pokéblocks can be made, to store the Pokéblocks that are made. In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the Pokéblock Case can be obtained by speaking to a small girl in the [[Contest Hall]] in [[Slateport City]]. In {{game|Emerald}}, she is in the Contest Hall in [[Lilycove City]]. In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the Pokéblock Case is stored in the [[Pokéblock Kit]], which is obtained from [[Lisia]] after delivering the [[Devon Parts]] and attempting to leave [[Slateport City]]. In Generation III, Pokéblocks are made at a [[Berry Blender]] in Contest Halls, while in [[Generation VI]], they are made with a portable Berry Blender in the Pokéblock Kit.

===Using Pokéblocks===
[[File:Pokéblock being fed.png‎|thumb|Mightyena being fed a Purple Pokéblock]]

====Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald====
Feeding a Pokéblock to a Pokémon increases its condition by amounts dependent upon the {{Berries}} used in its creation and influenced by the skill it was made with. A Pokéblock's feel limits how many Pokéblocks a Pokémon can eat. Its level indicates the amount by which its strongest flavor will affect the Pokémon's condition, while its color—detailed in the following section—can indicate which flavor is its strongest.

=====Feel=====
For every Pokéblock that a Pokémon eats, the value of the Pokéblock's feel is added to the Pokémon's [[sheen]]. This number has a maximum of 255, and when it reaches that point, the Pokémon will no longer be able to eat any more Pokéblocks. The size of this number is indicated by a ring of stars that appears around the Pokémon in the [[PokéNav]] as it is fed more Pokéblocks. The ring starts at 1 star and adds a new star after every 29 points of sheen, up to a maximum of 10 stars.

=====Level=====
A Pokéblock's level indicates the strength of its strongest [[flavor]]. If a Pokéblock contains more than one flavor, the only way to know the strength of the others is to calculate them based on the Berries that went into making the Pokéblock, as detailed below.

When a Pokémon is fed a Pokéblock, its condition in each category will be increased depending on the strengths of the flavors in the Pokéblock and which categories they correspond to, up to the maximum of 255 per stat. If the Pokéblock contains the Pokémon's liked flavor, and contains only a lesser amount (or none) of its disliked flavor, then the Pokémon will be shown eating the Pokéblock "happily" and the Pokéblock will be treated as if the liked flavor were 10% higher (rounded to the nearest integer). Conversely, if the Pokéblock contains the disliked flavor but only a lesser amount, or none, of the liked flavor, then the Pokémon will eat the Pokéblock "with disdain" and it will be treated as if the disliked flavor were 10% lower (again rounded to the nearest integer). No modifier will appear if the block contains both flavors equally (including the case that it does not contain either flavor), or if the Pokémon does not have any flavor preference due to having a neutral nature.

====Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
In the [[remake]]s, feeding a Pokémon a Pokéblock increases its condition by amounts solely dependent on the type of Pokéblock. Pokémon can be fed an unlimited number of Pokéblocks but each contest stat has a maximum value of 255.

Pokéblocks can have six colors: one for each of the contest categories (Red, Blue, Pink, Green, and Yellow), which only raises that condition, and Rainbow, which raises all five conditions at once. Standard Pokéblocks increase their corresponding stat by 8 points with no affection. However, if a Pokémon's condition stats already add up to at least 256, 512, 768, or 1024 points, a standard Pokéblock's effect on a stat will be reduced to 6, 4, 3, or 2 points respectively. Each color also has a "+" variant, such as "Red Pokéblock +" and "Rainbow Pokéblock +". Pokéblocks + increase a Pokémon's stats by 16 points with no affection, and this is not reduced at high condition totals.

A Pokémon's [[affection]] can also boost the effectiveness of Pokéblocks. A Pokémon with 2 or 3 hearts of affection will earn 1 extra point of condition each time a Pokéblock increases a stat, 4 hearts earns 2 extra points, and 5 hearts earns 4 extra points. This bonus is the same regardless of whether the Pokéblock is standard or +, and regardless of how high the existing conditions are.

===Making Pokéblocks===
====Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald====
In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, Pokéblocks are made by mixing Berries with one to three other people in a [[Berry Blender]], found at Contest Halls. Once Berries are selected, the center of the blender will spin. When the blender's arrow points to the player's marker, the player can push the A button to make it spin faster. The faster it spins, the better the Pokéblock. If the button is pushed outside of the player's marker, the arrow will spin slower, resulting in bad Pokéblocks. Once it is done, each participant receives a Pokéblock.

=====Flavors=====
The flavors in a Pokéblock depend on the flavors of the Berries that went into making it and the highest speed achieved during the blending. Each flavor is weakened by another flavor, so the presence of one flavor will decrease the strength of another. For an overview of the influence that various Berries will have on flavors, refer to the {{DL|Flavor|list of Berries by flavor}}.

{| class="roundy vertical-fullwidth" style="margin:auto; background: #{{contest color}}; border: 3px solid #{{contest color dark}}" cellpadding="3"
! style="background-color: #{{contest color light}}; {{roundytl|5px}}" scope="row" | Flavor
| style="background:#{{spicy color}}" | Spicy
| style="background:#{{sour color}}" | Sour
| style="background:#{{bitter color}}" | Bitter
| style="background:#{{sweet color}}" | Sweet
| style="background:#{{dry color}}; {{roundytr|5px}}" | Dry
|-
! style="background-color: #{{contest color light}}; {{roundybl|5px}}" scope="row" | Weakened by...
| style="background:#{{dry color}}" | Dry
| style="background:#{{spicy color}}" | Spicy
| style="background:#{{sour color}}" | Sour
| style="background:#{{bitter color}}" | Bitter
| style="background:#{{sweet color}}; {{roundybr|5px}}" | Sweet
|}

If each Berry used in the Pokéblock is different from the others, the flavors in the resulting Pokéblock are calculated as follows:
# Add together the respective flavors of all Berries being used (sum all spicy values, all dry values, and so on).
#:For instance, if {{b|Bluk}}, {{b|Nanab}}, and {{b|Wepear}} Berries are blended, the result of this step would be spicy: 0; dry: 10; sweet: 20; bitter: 20; and sour: 10.
# For each Berry flavor total, subtract the Berry flavor total of that flavor's weakening flavor as per the table above (e.g. spicy is weakened by dry, sour is weakened by spicy, etc.).
#:Continuing the example above: spicy: -10; dry: -10; sweet: 0; bitter: 10; and sour: 10.
# Subtract 1 from each flavor for every flavor that is negative.
#:Continuing the example above: spicy: -12; dry: -12; sweet: -2; bitter: 8; and sour: 8.
# Set any numbers from the previous result that were negative to 0.
#:Continuing the example above: spicy: 0; dry: 0; sweet: 0; bitter: 8; and sour: 8.
# Multiply all of the flavors by <math>\tfrac{RPM_{max}}{333} + 1</math>, {{wp|truncation|truncated}} to two decimal places (i.e. rounded down to the nearest hundredth). Round each result to the nearest integer (rounding half up).
#:Continuing with the established example, if the maximum RPM reported at the end of blending is 110.00 RPM, then the multiplier is 1.33 and the result of this step—and the final values for the strengths of the flavors in the Pokéblock—is spicy: 0; dry: 0; sweet: 0; bitter: 11; and sour: 11.

If two or more of the same Berry are used, the resulting Pokéblock will always be a low quality black Pokéblock, which is automatically assigned three random flavors of strength 2.

=====Color=====
In most cases, the color of a Pokéblock depends on the number of flavors that are present in the Pokéblock and on the strength of those flavors.

If the Pokéblock has one or two flavors and no flavors stronger than 50, the name of the Pokéblock is based on the strongest flavor. If multiple flavors are tied for being the strongest, they are prioritized in this order: Spicy, Dry, Sweet, Bitter, Sour. If the Pokéblock has one or two flavors and any of them has a strength or 50 or higher, it will be a Gold Pokéblock. Otherwise, unless it is a black Pokéblock, the name of the Pokéblock is based on the number of flavors alone.

If two or more of the same Berry are used to make a Pokéblock, the resulting Pokéblock will always be black. Black Pokéblocks ignore the usual stat formula and are instead given three random flavors of strength 2. It is only possible to produce a black Pokéblock when blending with other players; when blending with NPCs, they will always make sure to never use the same Berry as the player.

If games in two or more different languages are linked together to use the Berry Blender, selecting the same type of Berry in each game will cause a black Pokéblock even if the name of the Berry in those languages is different, as each game will render all Berry names in its own local language when displaying the blending summary. The exception to this is e-Reader Berries; if one player with an English game puts in a [[Strib Berry]], and another with a Japanese game selects {{tt|エドマのみ|Strib Berry}}, then the blending summary displays both berries in their respective languages, and they are considered different enough to avoid creating a black Pokéblock.

=====Feel=====
:''See also: [[Smoothness#List of Berries' smoothness|Smoothness → List of Berries' smoothness]]''
The feel of a Pokéblock is equal to the average [[smoothness]] of the Berries used (rounded down), minus the number of Berries used (i.e. the number of people participating, including NPCs). This can be expressed as the following formula (where ''n'' is the number of Berries used):
<math display="block">\mathrm{feel} = \left\lfloor \dfrac{\sum^{n} \mathrm{smoothness}}{n} \right\rfloor - n</math>
The highest obtainable feel for a Pokéblock is 78 without using e-Reader Berries, or 83 with them, if only two players use the blender and each puts in a Berry of the maximum smoothness category. The lowest obtainable feel is 16 without using e-Reader Berries, or 1 with them, but Pokéblocks with less than 4 feel will always be colored black, since they require all players to put in Nutpea or Kuo Berries, which are flavor-neutral. 

The Berries of each smoothness are listed below. Berries in ''italics'' are [[e-Reader]] Berries, some of which were exclusively available for Japanese games.

====Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
{{incomplete|section|Exact probabilities for each tier}}
In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the player is given a Pokéblock Kit, which contains a Berry Blender with which the player may create Pokéblocks using two to four Berries. In contrast to the original games, the process of blending Berries is entirely automatic, and the only factor in a Pokéblock's creation is the Berries that went into making it.

The number of Pokéblocks produced is equal to the number of Berries that were blended to produce them.

If Berries of three or fewer colors are blended together, then the color of the resulting Pokéblocks can match any color that was used most often. For example, blending a Red Berry and a Blue Berry may result in two Red Pokéblocks or two Blue Pokéblocks, while blending two Red Berries with a Blue Berry will result in three Red Pokéblocks. If Berries of four different colors are blended together, Rainbow Pokéblocks will be produced.

Any Pokéblocks that the player makes can either be regular Pokéblocks or Pokéblocks +. The chance of getting Pokéblocks + depends on the Berries used in the blending, with rarer Berries having a higher chance to produce Pokéblocks + than common Berries. The table below lists the likelihoods of producing Pokéblocks + with each Berry.

===Blending with non-playable characters===
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, Pokéblocks may be made with friends or with the assistance of in-game non-playable characters (NPCs). In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, the player may find one NPC who will assist in Berry Blending at the [[Verdanturf Town]] or [[Fallarbor Town]] Contest Halls, two NPCs in [[Slateport City]]'s Contest Hall, and three NPCs in [[Lilycove City]]'s Contest Hall. In Pokémon Emerald, there are three Berry Blending machines with one to three NPCs who will assist in Berry Blending all in the [[Lilycove City]] Contest Hall, and the [[Blend Master]] can appear at random as a {{DL|Hoenn TV|Pokémon News}} event.

The Berries these NPCs will contribute follow a repeating pattern to avoid weakening the strongest flavor of the Berry the player uses. They only break this pattern when the player is using the same Berry that they would, in order to avoid producing a black Pokéblock. As an example, if the player uses an [[Oran Berry]] (no. 7) or a [[Wiki Berry]] (no. 12) at the 4-person Berry Blender, the NPCs there will add Chesto, Aspear, and Rawst Berries. If the player adds a [[Persim Berry]] (no. 8), the NPCs will add Pecha, Cheri, and Aspear Berries.

For the Enigma Berry and e-Reader Berries, NPCs will choose Berries to avoid weakening the weakest flavor of the Berry the player uses. If multiple flavors are tied for being the weakest, they are prioritized in this order: Spicy, Dry, Sweet, Bitter, Sour.

The table below details the Pokéblocks that will be produced if the player adds a given Berry when blending with a given number of NPCs or the Blend Master. The level columns give the level that will be produced if the Berry Blender reaches a maximum RPM of 100 during blending. Since the NPCs only use the first five Berries, which each have a smoothness of 25, calculating the feel of any Pokéblock is simple, following the formula given in the previous section. The Blend Master meanwhile uses a Berry with smoothness of 50 or 70.

==In the anime==
[[File:Pokéblock anime.png|thumb|220px|Pokéblocks in the anime]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Pokéblocks were introduced in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]'', in which {{an|Chaz}} was seen feeding his {{p|Venomoth}} some Pokéblocks moments before the [[Rustboro City]] [[Pokémon Contest]]. He explained to {{an|Brock}} that he uses them as a snack along with Venomoth's main diet of [[Pokémon food]], adding that they are very nutritious.

[[File:May Purple Pokeblock.png‎|thumb|left|220px|May with her Purple Surprise]]
After that, in ''[[AG033|Now That's Flower Power!]]'', {{an|May}} received a [[Pokéblock Case]] from [[Mr. Big]], who said that every [[Pokémon Coordinator]] has to have one. However, it was not until ''[[AG090|Pokéblock, Stock, and Berry]]'' that May would learn to mix {{Berries}} in a [[Berry Blender]].

In ''[[AG117|Berry, Berry Interesting]]'', after picking several Berries from a garden, May went to make Pokéblocks for {{cat|May's Pokémon|her Pokémon}}. She created a recipe called '''May's Purple Surprise''' (Japanese: '''ハルカデリシャス''' ''Haruka Delicious''), which consisted of two [[Pecha Berry|Pecha Berries]], one [[Oran Berry]], one [[Bluk Berry]], and a small bit of [[Tamato Berry]].

After blending the Berries together, May offered some Pokéblocks to [[Max]] and Brock, but their reaction was not what she was expecting. May then proceeded to offer the Pokéblocks to her and {{ashfr|her friends}}' Pokémon, but they did not like her Purple Surprise either. May was disappointed with her lackluster results until a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{TP|May|Munchlax}} appeared and ate all of the Pokéblocks.

May was overjoyed and, after seeing the {{pkmn|category|Big Eater Pokémon}} being accused of stealing Pokéblocks from the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s staying at the [[Pokémon Center]], she decided to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. From that point onward, May has been giving Pokéblocks to Munchlax. She has received tips from {{an|Professor Oak}} to prepare a new kind of Pokéblock, which she called '''May's Pink Surprise''' (Japanese: '''ハルカデリシャス2''' ''Haruka Delicious 2''), able to suppress Munchlax's huge appetite.

==In the manga==
[[File:Zinnia Aster Adventures.png|thumb|210px|Pokéblocks in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Pokéblocks were first seen in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, made by {{adv|Ruby}}. He has a talent of being able to tell a Pokémon's [[Nature]] just by observing them, allowing him to choose the correct Pokéblock flavor for them. Examples of this include [[Blaise]]'s {{p|Slugma}} in ''[[PS201|Slugging It Out with Slugma]]'', [[Zinnia]]'s {{p|Whismur}}, Aster, in [[PS597]], and {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} in ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]''.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Pokéblock bears some similarity to the popular candy {{wp|Pez}}. They are both small candies that are stored in a dispenser.
* In Generation III, the way a Pokémon reacts when it will be given a Pokéblock depends on its Nature. For instance, a Hardy Pokémon will make three jumps growing in height each time, while a Careful Pokémon will make three small jumps, whereas a Docile Pokémon will make no movement at all.

==In the TCG==
[[File:SuperRodDragonVault20.jpg|200px|thumb|{{TCG|Dragon Vault}} print of Super Rod]]
{{main|Super Rod (Neo Genesis 103)}}
The '''Super Rod''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Trainer card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Neo Series (the Japanese Neo Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Gold, Silver, to a New World...}} expansion and the English {{TCG|Neo Genesis}} expansion, with artwork by [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. It let a player flip a coin. If heads, the player could put an {{TCG|Evolution card}} from their discard pile into their hand. If tails, the player could put a [[Basic Pokémon]] into their hand instead. Super Rod was later reclassified as an {{TCG|Item card}} during the English Black & White Series (the Japanese Black & White Era) with a completely different effect. Now, it let players shuffle 3 in any combination of Pokémon and {{TCG|Basic Energy card}}s from their discard pile back into their deck. During the Scarlet & Violet Series (the Japanese Scarlet & Violet Era) the card received a slight text change to include the phrase '''up to''', in order to give players the option to take fewer than the maximum number of cards.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* The Super Rod is the only fishing rod that is obtainable in [[Generation V]]. The Old and Good Rods, while still existent in the game's programming, cannot be obtained without hacking and cannot be used; if hacked in, they can be [[held item|held]] by a Pokémon unlike legitimate [[Key Item]]s.

{{main|Good Rod (Unleashed 76)}}
The '''Good Rod''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Trainer card}} ({{TCG|Item card}} in Japan) in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English HeartGold & SoulSilver Series. It was first released in the Leafeon Deck of the {{TCG|Leafeon vs Metagross Expert Deck}} before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Unleashed}} expansion, with an illustration by [[Wataru Kawahara]]. Good Rod lets a player flip a coin. If heads, the player can search their discard pile for a Pokémon, and put it on top of their deck. If it is tails, the player searches for a {{TCG|Trainer card}} instead.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], the only Pokémon that can be fished up with the Good Rod are {{p|Poliwag}} and {{p|Goldeen}}, both of which would always be at [[level]] 10.

==In the TCG==

{{main|Old Rod (Neo Revelation 64)}}
The '''Old Rod''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Trainer card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Neo Series (the Japanese Neo Era). It was first released in the {{TCG|Awakening Legends}} expansion before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Neo Revelation}} expansion, with an illustration by [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. A reprint with new artwork by [[Shizurow]] was included in the Japanese {{TCG|Offense and Defense of the Furthest Ends}} expansion, and then released in the English {{TCG|EX Dragon Frontiers}} expansion. Old Rod lets a player flip 2 coins. If both are heads, the player can search their discard pile for a Baby Pokémon (Neo Revelation only), Basic Pokémon, or Evolution card and put it into their hand. If both coins are tails, the player search their discard pile for a {{TCG|Trainer card}} instead and put it into their hand.

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], the only Pokémon that can be fished out by the Old Rod is {{p|Magikarp}}, all of which would be [[level]] 5.

'''Ogerpon ''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オーガポン''' ''Ogerpon'') is a {{type|Grass}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]], with [[The Teal Mask]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Ogerpon has four {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Ogerpon|forms}}, depending on the mask it's wearing, which also changes its typing. Each mask also gives Ogerpon a unique '''Terastallized state''' when it [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallizes]].
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Teal Mask]] by default, it is in its '''Teal Mask''' form, and is pure {{type|Grass}}.
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Wellspring Mask]], it is in its '''Wellspring Mask''' form, and is {{2t|Grass|Water}}-type.
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Hearthflame Mask]], it is in its '''Hearthflame Mask''' form, and is {{2t|Grass|Fire}}-type.
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Cornerstone Mask]], it is in its '''Cornerstone Mask''' form, and is {{2t|Grass|Rock}}-type.

Teal Mask Ogerpon is the [[game mascot]] of [[The Teal Mask]], appearing in [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]].

==Biology==
Ogerpon is a small, green humanoid [[Pokémon]]. It has a green torso with white flowers and yellow dots and long black legs with two toes on each foot. Between its toes are sprouts with two leaves. A green, leafy cloak covers its arms, the neck of which appears to be a large, thorny vine. Two thorns stick out prominently from the top, resembling two large horns. Underneath the mask it usually wears, Ogerpon has an orange face, and yellow eyes shaped like a star. It wears a six-spiked headband with a single leaf on top. In battle, it wields a cudgel wrapped in ivy. Ogerpon is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

{{Spoilers}}
Ogerpon and its former companion were shunned by the people of [[Kitakami]] due to their strange appearance, and so they lived in a nearby mountain, isolated from the villagers. The village mask-maker took pity on the pair and crafted four beautiful masks for them, allowing them to blend in with the people during the village festival. However, their fame attracted three greedy Pokémon: {{p|Okidogi}}, {{p|Munkidori}}, and {{p|Fezandipiti}}, who attacked Ogerpon's companion in their cave while Ogerpon was away, stealing all but the Teal Mask and leaving no trace of the companion when Ogerpon returned. Filled with rage, Ogerpon attacked and defeated the three Pokémon in the village, but its anger caused the villagers to fear it even more. Thus, Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti were immortalized by the unaware villagers as the [[Loyal Three]], while Ogerpon was left alone in its cave, saddened by the events that had transpired. It mainly resides in the Dreaded Den. There is a myth that Ogerpon will supposedly steal the souls of humans without masks late at night.

Ogerpon has a curious and mischievous personality. It enjoys spending time with humans while wearing a mask to blend in. It can confuse foes with its nimble movements and kicks. Ogerpon can draw power from the masks it wears, granting it different elements for its cudgel to use. Ogerpon can become weaker should any of its masks get stolen. Returning the mask can restore Ogerpon's full power. As seen in its idle and attack animations, Ogerpon stores its masks and cudgel under its cloak.

Ogerpon is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon]] capable of using the move {{m|Ivy Cudgel}}.

===Forms===
Ogerpon has four forms, each with its own special [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallized state]]. Unlike other Pokémon, Ogerpon is incapable of having its [[Tera Type]] changed at the [[Treasure Eatery]]. Instead, its Tera Type is determined by which mask it is currently wearing.

;Teal Mask
Teal Mask Ogerpon's mask is a teal color with a mischievous expression. Its mouth is tan, sporting two protrusions from the chin that resemble pincers. On both sides of the mouth are three large green leaves that are larger than each one below. On top of the mask are 5 teal leaves fanned out to form a kind of crown, with the outer four having holes cut out towards the center. 9 Tera Crystals adorn the mask, a 4-sided star-shaped one in the center of its crown, six more in the center of each leaf on the side of its mask, and two more used as eyes. It draws on the power of grass through the Teal Mask.

In its Terastallized state, Ogerpon's mask becomes bigger, completely covering all but its legs. The Mask itself floats in front of Ogerpon during the battle. The black part of the mouth mask opens up more. The star crystal changes into having the Terastal Symbol at the entrance as two Ogre horn-shaped Tera crystals grow out of the head. The lower three large green leaves change to bright green. Behind the mask is several bright green leaves and spit vines growing out of it. This form will always have a [[Grass (type)|Grass]] Tera Type.

This mask it wears is described as being fearsome<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_pokemon/</ref>. With the Teal Mask, Ogerpon can bring life back to any withered green surrounding it.

;Wellspring Mask
Wellspring Mask Ogerpon's mask is blue with a crying expression. It is heart-shaped, with a white face, closed eyes light blue eyebrows. 2 Tera crystals adorn the mask, and two tear-shaped ones under its eyes. While in this form, Ogerpon's leafy cloak turns white and blue, and the tip of its cudgel turns blue. It draws on the power of water through the Wellspring Mask.

In its Terastallized state, Ogerpon's mask becomes bigger, completely covering all but its legs. The Mask itself floats in front of Ogerpon during the battle. Blue hair grows from the top of the mask. One of the tear crystals changes into having the Terastal Symbol at the center as two Ogre horn-shaped Tera crystals grow out of the head. Behind the mask, several bright blue watery waves grow out of it. This form will always have a [[Water (type)|Water]] Tera Type.

With its Wellspring Mask, Ogerpon can stop the flow of a river. Wellspring Mask excels in both attack and defense. It can unleash attacks ceaselessly like the gushes of spring water. It can attack with unrelenting kicks and ivy strikes.

;Hearthflame Mask
Hearthflame Mask Ogerpon's mask is a red and yellow color with a fierce expression. It has a fiery look, and its mouth is blue with two white fangs sticking out of it, similarly to the Teal Mask, it also possesses a crown, but fire-looking. 3 Tera crystals adorn the mask, two used as eyes and a 4-pointed star-shaped one on the center of its head. While in this form, Ogerpon's leafy cloak turns yellow and red, and the tip of its cudgel turns red. It draws on the power of fire through the Hearthflame Mask.

In its Terastallized state, Ogerpon's mask becomes bigger, completely covering all but its legs. The Mask itself floats in front of Ogerpon during the battle. The blue mouth opens up widely. The star crystal changes into having the Terastal Symbol at the center as two Ogre horn-shaped Tera crystals grow out of the head. Behind the mask, several bright yellow fiery flames grow out of it. This form will always have a [[Fire (type)|Fire]] Tera Type.

With its Hearthflame Mask, Ogerpon can turn a candle's flame into raging infernos. It has a more aggressive personality when wearing the mask. It can bomb its enemies with the intensity of a hearth's flame. It also spears enemies with its thorn-covered ivy.

;Cornerstone Mask
Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon's mask is gray and black with a crazy expression. It has a rocky look, it has a wide mouth with two long, black fangs sticking out of it, it has wide yellow eyes and a weird-shaped, blue mustache around its nose. 5 Tera crystals adorn the mask, two as pupils and three as its teeth. While in this form, Ogerpon's leafy cloak turns black and gray, and the tip of its cudgel turns grey. can draw on the power of stone through the Cornerstone Mask.

In its Terastallized state, Ogerpon's mask becomes bigger, completely covering all but its legs. The Mask itself floats in front of Ogerpon during the battle. The already large mouth opens wider. One of the pupil crystals changes into having the Terastal Symbol at the center as two Ogre horn-shaped Tera crystals grow out of the head. Behind the mask, long black hair grows out of it. This form will always have a [[Rock (type)|Rock]] Tera Type.

With its Cornerstone Mask, Ogerpon can break even the hardest stone in two. This form of Ogerponan has an amazing defense, capable of impacts easily. This defense is similar to the cornerstones that help support houses. Due to this rocky solid body, Ogerpon is protected from all manner of attacks.

==Trivia==
* With a total of four battles, Ogerpon can be fought the most out of any [[Legendary Pokémon]] in one playthrough.

===Origin===
Ogerpon may be based on {{wp|oni}}, creatures from Japanese folklore that often are referred to as demons or ogres in English. In particular, it may be based off the oni who live on Onigashima from the story of ''{{wp|Momotarō}}''. Its plant-based body and orange fruit-like face may be a pun on Momotarō himself, the peach boy. It may also be inspired by onikenbai, or {{wp|Devil's Sword Dance}}, a traditional festival and dance in Kitakami, Iwate. Another inspiration may be {{wp|Namahage}}, which received {{wp|Mochi}} from households in the 20th centruy but nowadays give away Mochi, which ties to the [[Ogre Oustin']] minigame and the [[Mochi]] which can be gotten there. The [[Cornerstone Mask]] could be based on {{wp|Onigawara}}, roof ornamentations with the face of an Oni. Its cudgel appears to be based on a {{wp|kanabō}}, a type of club often wielded by oni in myths.

Its face resembles ''{{wp|dekopon}}'', a variety of orange. It also appears to be based on {{wp|Hedera|ivy}}, although its thorny appearance is more similar to plants like {{wp|Rubus|bramble bush}}es.

====Name origin====
Ogerpon may be derived from ''{{wp|ogre}}'' and ''{{wp|ponkan}}'' or ''{{wp|dekopon}}'', as well as {{j|～ぽん}} ''-pon'', a cutesy suffix applied to names as a form of endearment.
