Its-a-me Pikachu!: /* To {{pkmn|games}} */ not exactly the same different sizes and graphics

The [[Pokémon]] series is noted for having multiple, distinctly different [[canon]]s. They often will make references to one another.

==List of references==
===Game references===
====To {{pkmn|anime}}====
* {{game|Yellow}} is a direct tribute to the anime.
*{{g|Puzzle League}} is also heavily based on the anime, with [[Ash Ketchum]] being the [[player character]] and all other characters coming from the anime.
* When Red was battled in [[Mt. Silver]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Pikachu's moves were changed from the original moves in [[Generation II]] to reflect [[Ash's Pikachu]]'s moves in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.
* The {{an|Jigglypuff|Jigglypuff with a marker}} appears in [[Pokémon Snap]].
* [[Pokémon Channel]] uses the anime voices of Pokémon, including [[Maddie Blaustein]]'s {{MTR}}. It also features an episode exclusive to the game: ''[[Pichu Bros. in Party Panic]]''.
* In the Japanese versions of {{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, one of the default names for {{ga|Barry}} is [[Gary Oak|Shigeru]]. In the English versions, one of the default names for {{ga|Lucas}} is {{Ash}}.
* [[Riley]] appears to be based on [[Sir Aaron]], a character that appeared in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''. Riley has a {{p|Lucario}}, a Pokémon Aaron {{mov|Lucario|also had|8}}. However, he appeared later in the anime.
* The mysterious [[GS Ball]], a [[key item]] in {{game|Crystal}}, was introduced during the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] arc.
* The [[Generation II]] games said that [[Cinnabar Island]] was evacuated because of the eruption of a volcano. While the games do not show any volcano, the anime clearly shows {{Ash}} fighting against [[Blaine]] on the top of a volcano.
* In Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal a female NPC near the [[Lake of Rage]] makes a reference to the [[Pink Butterfree]]. She comments "Come to think of it, I've seen a pink Butterfree."
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, an NPC named Luis will sometimes participate in [[Pokémon Super Contest]] with his {{p|Pikachu}}, nicknamed [[Sparky]], much like [[Ritchie]]'s is.
* {{rt|224|Sinnoh}} has {{tc|Ace Trainer}} {{mov|Rebecca}}, a {{pkmn|Trainer}} who analyzes battles using her laptop. She challenges the player with her {{p|Metagross}}. However, this cameo was not recognized by translators, as English versions call her '''Jamie''' (in Japanese version her name is '''ヒトミ''' ''Hitomi'', like in the movie).
* Also, the two {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s that appear on the southernmost part of {{rt|229|Sinnoh}} have their [[party|teams]] based on those of [[Butler]] and [[Diane]] in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. In the Japanese version, as well, they are named as Butler and Diane, but, as with Rebecca, the English translation team did not notice the relation to the movie characters.
* The most important of the Super Contest judges is named Dexter, much like {{Ash}}'s [[Pokédex]] was during the anime's early seasons.
* In {{Eng|Pokémon Stadium}} Brock's team includes a {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}. In [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], Misty's team includes a {{TP|Misty|Togetic}} while Red's team contains a {{TP|Ash|Tauros}} and the evolved forms of the {{AP|three|Bayleef}} {{AP|Johto|Quilava}} {{AP|starters|Totodile}}.
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Mew uses a bubble with acts like a shield. In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', {{p|Mew}} were seen to create bubbles with it inside for the seemingly same reasons.
* The movie event [[Pikachu-colored Pichu]] and the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] appear in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* When the [[starter Pokémon]] is chosen in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the desk will appear in 3D on the Touch Screen, resembling {{an|Professor Oak}}'s desk with the starter Pokémon seen in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''.
* After getting his phone number, [[Brock]] may offer to trade a {{p|Rhyhorn}} that {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|knows}} {{m|Thunder Fang}} in exchange for a player's {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}}.
* When a player enters [[Cerulean Gym]] with a {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} [[Walking Pokémon|following him or her]], it will start crying softly.
* The [[Super Smash Bros.]] series has various references.
** All Pokémon are depicted with their anime voices, though the English language release of Melee keeps Mewtwo's Japanese voice.
** The [[Misty]] trophy depicts her in her [[original series]] clothes.
** The {{p|Meowth}} trophy depicts [[Team Rocket]]'s {{MTR}} with the guitar from [[Meowth's Party]].
** The {{st|Pokémon Stadium}} stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee has four different terrain effects, corresponding to four different [[elemental type]]s: {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Grass}}, and {{t|Rock}}, while the {{st|Pokémon Stadium 2|one}} in Brawl has a new set of four different terrain effects: {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Flying}}, and {{t|Electric}}. These reference the four fields of the [[Indigo League Conference]].
** In Melee's 44th Event Match, ''Mewtwo Strikes!'', {{p|Mewtwo}} uses {{zw|Princess Zelda}} to beat the player in the ''Battlefield'', a stage that has a star background. The name, the fact that Mewtwo uses Zelda, and the stage setting are clearly based on ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
** In Brawl's 25th event Match, "The [[Aura]] Is With Me", the player battles as {{p|Lucario}} against Ness and Sheik on {{st|Spear Pillar}}. This is a clear reference to ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', where {{mov|Lucario|Lucario|8}} was an ancient Pokémon that had slept in hundreds of years, and [[Ash Ketchum]] himself even said "The aura is with me!" when in the [[Tree of Beginning]].
** In all three games, Mew, upon summoned, immediately flies away in a bubble. In ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'', Mew was seen to create bubbles with itself inside, seemingly for protection.
* In the Japanese version of [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], [[Rand]] has a line in which he notes that "[[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|someone said that dreams will someday become reality.]]"

====To {{pkmn|manga}}====
* The character of [[Wally]] has some similarities to [[Peanut]] of ''[[Magical Pokémon Journey]]''.
* {{ga|Leaf}}'s character design was likely inspired by {{adv|Blue}}'s, which in turn was inspired by an unused concept art for a female protagonist for the original {{game|Red and Green|s}}.
* If a promotional {{p|Celebi}} is taken to the [[Ilex Shrine]], the player will travel through time to see [[Giovanni]] abandon his son, {{ga|Silver}}. In the {{pkmn|Adventures}} manga, {{adv|Silver}} had since earlier been confirmed to be his son.

====To [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]]====
*{{Card GB}} and {{Card GB 2}} are directly based off the TCG.
*In {{pkmn|Colosseum}} and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness|XD]], the [[Shadow Pokémon]] (known as Dark Pokémon in Japanese) are similar to the {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}} from the TCG, including the fact that most Shadow Pokémon are evolved forms.
*The beta versions of [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'s {{St|Pokémon Stadium|Pokémon Stadium stage}} originally featured the {{TCG|Fire}}, {{TCG|Grass}} and {{TCG|Water}} {{TCG|Elemental types|Energy symbols}}. The reason for their removal was likely because there are also {{t|Normal}} and {{t|Rock}} variations, and no Energy symbol that represents the Rock type.


===Anime references===
====To {{pkmn|games}}====
* All anime canon is based off the world and events of the main game series.
* [[Ritchie]] and {{Ash}}'s original clothes are almost identical to the original clothes of {{ga|Red}}, while {{Gary}}'s outfit is taken directly from {{ga|Blue}}'s; the [[Generation I]] one during the [[original series]], as well as the [[Generation III]] clothes during the {{series2|Advanced Generation}} and {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.
* The beginning of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' was based on the intro of {{2v2|Red|Green}}.
* [[Todd Snap]], the protagonist in [[Pokémon Snap]], has accompanied {{Ash}} for two short periods of time. He also appeared in the Emerald Saga of [[Pokémon Adventures]].
* In the episode ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'', Mewtwo's sprite from [[Pokémon Blue (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]] can be seen on the wall of {{an|Giovanni}}'s office.
* The special ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'' is based directly off [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]. [[SS020|Another episode]] was produced for the game's [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|sequel]].
* ''[[AG155|Green Guardian]]'', ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis! Parts One]] [[AG172|and Two]]'', ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', and ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]] [[DP072|and Two]]'' are based on {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, with [[Solana]] playing a large role in the two [[Advanced Generation series|AG]] episodes and making a cameo in the movie and DP episodes, and [[Kellyn]] playing a large role in the [[Diamond & Pearl series|DP]] episodes. The plot of each is based on a mission from the games.
[[Image:GameFreak Silver.jpg|thumb|right|Original sketch of Silver]]
* Several similarities between [[Paul]] and {{ga|Silver}} have been noted, such as Paul's positioning in his stock art being almost identical to [[Ken Sugimori]]'s original sketch of Silver.
* In ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', {{MTR}} states that [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|"diamond" and "pearl"]] would be great names for games. He is scolded to wait until [[Diamond & Pearl series|next season]].

====To {{pkmn|manga}}====
* The episode ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]'' shows a clip of a movie based off the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga.
* In the episode ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over]]'', [[Wallace]] was confirmed to be a {{pkmn|Contest}} master, a title achieved by him in the latter part of the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}} of [[Pokémon Adventures]].

====To [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]]====
* [[James]], known for his collecting habits, identifies [[Pokémon]] using cards instead of a [[Pokédex]].
* [[Lawrence III]] has an [[Ancient Mew (2nd Movie promo)|Ancient Mew]] card.
* The [[Elemental types (TCG)|Energy symbols]] were featured on a poster for the [[Indigo League]] in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and are used to demonstrate the various terrain effects during the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. They also make appearances in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' and ''[[SS004|Showdown at the Oak Corral]]''.
** Additionally, the first Japanese opening theme [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master]] shows the seven (at the time) Energy symbols circling the Pocket Monsters logo.


===Manga references===
====[[Pokémon Adventures]] references====
=====To {{pkmn|games}}=====
* This series is based off the world and events of the main game series.
* [[Pokémon Pinball]] appears in the [[Goldenrod Game Corner]].
* {{m|Surf}}ing and {{m|Fly}}ing {{p|Pikachu}} appear, both of which are derived from {{game|Yellow}}.

=====To {{pkmn|anime}}=====
* {{adv|Red}}'s French (''Sacha''), German (''Ash''), Korean (지우 ''Jiu'') and Chinese (小智 ''Xiǎo Zhì'') names are the same as [[Ash Ketchum]]'s names in the same languages.
* [[Misty]]'s [[PokéShipping|crush]] on Red is similar to the one the anime's version of the character has been suspected to have on {{Ash}}.
* Armored {{p|Mewtwo}} appears in [[List of rounds in the fifth chapter of Pokémon Adventures|The Fifth Chapter]]. However, the armor (called "M2 Bind" in this canon) was designed in order to restrain Mewtwo, rather than concentrate its power, though it could be argued that [[Giovanni]]'s statement to {{an|Mewtwo}} was a lie.
* {{p|Latias}} has a human form who looks a lot like the one from [[M05|the fifth movie]].
* A {{p|Jirachi}} is used to summon a fake {{p|Groudon}} in [[M06|the sixth movie]], while a Jirachi is used to summon a fake {{p|Kyogre}} in the {{adv|Emerald chapter}}.
* {{p|Deoxys}} has an ability to duplicate itself, much like in the [[M07|seventh movie]]. The duplicates look like those from anime.
* [[Johanna]] appears in a [[Pokémon Super Contest]] video where she has a {{TP|Johanna|Glameow}}.

=====To [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]]=====
* [[Sabrina]]'s {{p|Kadabra}} disguises itself as [[Professor Oak]] and looks like {{TCG ID|Base Set|Impostor Professor Oak|73}}.
* The Pokémon Trading Card Game appears in the Goldenrod Game Corner.



====[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] references====
=====To {{pkmn|games}}=====
* {{Gary}}'s [[Daisy Oak|sister]]'s existence (in the anime he was never revealed to have one).
* [[Daisy Oak|May]] gives {{Ash}} a town map, much like her game counterpart does to {{ga|Red}}.
* [[TM]]s (which come from games and have never appeared in the anime) are shown in this manga.

=====To {{pkmn|anime}}=====
* This series is loosely based off the anime.




====[[Pokémon Zensho]] references====
=====To {{pkmn|games}}=====
* This manga is the most direct adaptation of [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}}. It shows some events from games, which were omitted in other canons (e.g. [[Brock]] having a {{tc|Camper}} as an apprentice, [[S.S. Anne]]'s captain's sea sickness, the hunt for the [[Baoba|Safari Zone Warden]]'s dentures).
* The main characters' names are {{Zensho|Satoshi}} and {{Zensho|Shigeru}}, rather than {{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Green}}, however it's likely that these names are directly taken from optional names of the game characters, rather than the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* When Brock's apprentice mentions the [[Elite Four]], they appear as shadows in the same poses they had in their [[Generation I]] sprites.

=====To {{pkmn|anime}}=====
* Satoshi without his hat looks a lot like {{Ash}}.
* Satoshi has a {{p|Pikachu}}, it however doesn't seem to be an intended reference, as this one wasn't Satoshi's {{pkmn2|starter}} and it eventually evolved.
* The [[Cerulean Gym]] building has a picture of {{p|Dewgong}} on the outside wall.
* Satoshi gets the {{Badge|Rainbow}} from [[Erika]], rather than winning it in the battle.
* Satoshi has a {{p|Lapras}}. However, as the manga was released before the start of [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] saga of anime, it's likely a coincidence.



=====To other {{pkmn|manga}}=====
* This manga adapted several things from [[Pokémon Adventures]] (see-through [[Poké Ball]]s and [[Mr. Fuji]]'s appearance).
* [[Bill]]'s last name being '''Sonezaki''' was also mentioned in [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]. (This only occurs in the Japanese variation.)

====[[Magical Pokémon Journey]] references====


=====To {{pkmn|anime}}=====
*Several bonus chapters feature {{Ash}}, [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and {{Tracey}} visiting the MPJ universe.



=====To other {{pkmn|manga}}=====
* [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]] is written by the same author and set in the same world.

====[[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]] references====





=====To other {{pkmn|manga}}=====
* [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] is written by the same author and set in the same world.

====[[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] references====
=====To {{pkmn|games}}=====
* This series is based off the world and events of the main game series.





====[[Mezase!! Card Master]] references====
=====To [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]]=====
* The main goal for the manga's main character [[Kenta Minamii]] is to become a great TCG player.




===[[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]] references===
====To {{pkmn|games}}====
* Many locations and characters from the games appear on different cards, particularly {{TCG|Trainer card}}s.

====To {{pkmn|anime}}====
* Several anime characters, such as [[Jessie]] and [[James]], appear on different cards, particularly {{TCG|Trainer card}}s.



===[[Pokémon Trading Figure Game|TFG]] references===
====To {{pkmn|games}}====
* All {{TFG|Trainer figure}}s are based directly off game characters.



====To [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]]====
* This game uses the same rarities as the TCG, with the exception of '''extra rare''' figures.
* This game has {{TCG|Trainer card}}s like those in the TCG, though their incorporation and usage is different.

'''Sand-Attack''' (Japanese: '''すなかけ''' ''Sand Attack'') is a non-damaging {{type2|Ground}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]], though it was a {{type2|Normal}} move in [[Generation I]].

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Sand-Attack decreases the target's {{stat|Accuracy}} stat by one stage. Sand-Attack will do nothing if the target's Accuracy stage is at -6, and will fail if the target has a {{m|Substitute}} or is under the effect of {{m|Mist}}.

Sand-Attack is a {{type2|Normal}} move in this generation.

===Generation II and on===
The effects of Sand-Attack are the same as the previous generation, however it is now a {{type2|Ground}} move. Although it is a Ground-type move, it still affects {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon and those with the [[ability]] {{a|Levitate}}.

Game mascot

2011-05-09T20:37:41Z

Its-a-me Pikachu!: /* {{color2|{{red color}}|Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|R}}{{color2|{{green color}}|Pokémon Red and Green Versions|G}}{{color2|{{blue color}}|Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|B}}{{color2|{{yellow color}}|Pokémon Yellow Version|Y}} */

A '''version mascot''' is a Pokémon that appears on the boxart—and often label—of one of the [[Pokémon games]] in the main series.

Early on, the first two version mascots in a generation shared more of a relation with each other than with the third; however, in the Hoenn and Sinnoh trilogies, all three had a significant relationship between them.

Play! Pokémon

2011-05-09T02:23:41Z

Its-a-me Pikachu!: /* Pokémon Leagues */ Fixed link

{{incomplete}}[[File:Play Pokemon logo.png|thumb|right|The new '''Play! Pokémon''' logo, debuting in August 2010]]

'''Play! Pokémon''', formerly known as '''Pokémon Organized Play''', often abbreviated as '''POP''', is an official gathering of players of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and the [[Pokémon games]] to play, trade, and just generally have fun and learn about the games. POP used to oversee activity within the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

The division was formed by [[The Pokémon Company International]] (nee Pokémon USA) in 2003 after [[Wizards of the Coast]] lost their Pokémon TCG license. With their occupation, PUSA created new league, tournament, and prize systems, as well as an improved {{TCG|Professor Program}}. In 2010, the name changed to its current title, that being Play! Pokémon.

==Registration==
[[File:POP logo.png|thumb|right|The POP logo used until August 2010]]Players wishing to enter the foray of either the TCG or video games and compete in events must sign up to obtain a POP-ID. It is used to access a "My Pokémon" account, where a player can view his or her Rankings, {{TCG|Premier Ratings}}, Tournaments (for {{TCG|Tournament Organizer}}s only), or Leagues (for {{TCG|League Leader}}s only).

==Age divisions==
So that potentially younger less experienced players are not at a disadvantage playing older more experienced ones, they are sorted into age divisions in sanctioned events. These were defined by a specific age up until the 2006-2007 season, consisting of Ten and Under (10-), Eleven to Fourteen (11-14) and Fifteen and Over (15+). Beginning with the 2006-2007 season, POP revised the system based on date of birth. The divisions are now categorized as of 2010 into three divisions: Junior (born in 2000 or later), Senior (born between 1996 and 1999) and Masters (born in 1995 or earlier). In the video game categories, there are two divisions, Junior (born in 2000 or later) and Senior (born before 1999).

== [[Pokémon League (TCG)|Pokémon League]]s ==
[[File:League logo.png|thumb|right|Pokémon League logo]]
Pokémon Leagues provide a nearby place for players to get together with other fans of the Pokémon TCG and [[Pokémon games]] and have fun. They are often held in public locations, such as stores, community centers and libraries. Leagues are often the perfect venues for players starting out to learn about the TCG or video games and to hone their skills to compete in tournaments.

Leagues often focus on a theme related to the current video game every year, and break the cycle down into seven or eight seasons lasting around six weeks, each season representing a part of the theme (e.g. a specific [[Gym]] if the theme is based around Gyms featured in a Pokémon game). The theme often correlates with the current main series Pokémon games.

'''List of themes featured in Pokémon TCG Leagues'''
*2003-04: [[Hoenn]] League
*2004-05: [[Sevii Islands]] League
*2005-06: {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} League
*2006-07: [[Kanto]] League
*2007-08: [[Sinnoh]] League
*2008-09: {{TCG|Energy}} League
*2009-10: [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainer]] League
*2010-11: [[Pokéathlon]] League

During Wizards' occupation, players received points based on actions at every League session, and these points were recorded in League books. Points were awarded for actions such as challenging a player, winning/losing a battle, trading cards, meeting new individuals and promoting good sportsmanship.

Unlike Wizards, POP utilized a hybrid League system during the 2003-2004 season, where players could earn points by playing both the video games and the Trading Card Game. The idea was scrapped for the next cycle, though it since has made a comeback.

'''Typical prizes:''' When a player reaches the Poké Ball symbol on their [[Pokémon League#Score Card|Score Card]], they receive (a) promotional foil card(s). Once an entire side is filled, the player will receive a promotional Nintendo DS Lite/DSi skin. Some Leagues have a different system of handing these items out.

==Player Rewards Program==
This allows players who compete in Leagues, Tournaments and Premier Events to earn POP Booster packs as rewards for their efforts. Attending one of these will earn players 1 “credit”. Each credit is a step toward a Rewards "Tier." Those who play in 3–5 events qualify for Tier One and earn 5 POP packs. 6–10 events qualify for Tier Two, earning 10 packs. 11 events or more qualify for Tier Three, earning 15 packs. Thus, players can earn up to 15 POP Booster packs each quarter (three months). At the end of each quarter, POP distributes the Player Rewards to those that have earned them through the mail.

===POP packs===
'''POP packs''' are special Pokémon TCG packs that only contain two cards, as opposed to (at the time, nine) the current number of ten. Introduced in September 2004, the POP sets are released roughly once every six months and were created to bring useful cards that have been {{TCG|Rotation|rotated}} out of play back into the game, as well as exclusive cards. Although, with an increasing number of alternate-art Promo cards in Japan, the latest POP sets currently serve as a vehicle to bring them to the West. The usefulness of recent POP sets has been a subject of debate within the Pokémon community; collectors praising PUSA for releasing these cards in English, while they face scrutiny by players, as many cards are the same as those in the current Modified format.

POP packs can typically only be found by participating in Pokémon Organized Play events, but after leagues no longer distribute them, they are occasionally included in Value Packs, etc. sold in stores.

==Local Tournaments==
Local Tournaments are meant for both fun and practice. They are usually held once a week in a gaming store or other large hall such as a church by a local League Leader or Tournament Organizer. Prizes vary depending on the competitors. They are often free to enter, but the price can sometimes range to $5.

POP-sanctioned tournaments are either single elimination, Swiss, or Swiss followed by single elimination rounds. Some POP events use 'Age Modified Swiss', (a variation of Swiss invented by Play! Pokémon) in which a player's age takes priority over the player's record when the organizer pairs players.

After sanctioned tournaments are completed, the Tournament Organizer uploads the results of each match to TPCi. The results of each match are used to calculate a player's Premier Rating. POP Ratings are based on the Elo rating system.

'''Typical prizes:''' In early seasons, players could earn Promotional cards by participating in league sessions. After TPCi's revisions, players earned POP Packs upon participation instead.

==Prerelease Tournaments==
Prerelease Tournaments are events in which players get the opportunity to play with cards from an Expansion that will be released in stores prior to the event. They are typically held on the two weekends before the set release (although a third weekend is added to the schedule if the Prerelease clashes with a major Play! Pokémon event, such as the World Championship, traditionally held in August). The fee is a minimum of $25 and each player gets six Booster packs. Players may build a 40-card deck using the cards opened out of the six packs (not including basic Energy cards, which are provided at the event). If the player vouches to participate in this event, he or she receives two additional booster packs at the end of the event, along with a special Prerelease card.

==TCG Premier Events==
Premier Events are meant for competition, and there are several held throughout the season every year until the climax at Worlds where the best players battle it out to become the Pokémon Champion.

===Battle Road Tournaments===
[[File:Battle_Roads_Autumn_logo.jpg|thumb|right|Battle Road Autumn logo]]

Held in the Autumn and the Spring, the Battle Road tournaments give players the opportunity to work on their premier ratings, potentially earning an invite and trip to Worlds.

===Last Chance Qualifier===
The Last Chance qualifier, referred to casually as the "grinder," is an event held on-site at the World Championships location the day before the World Championships themselves. Typically, it consists of an eight round Swiss tournament with a cut after Swiss depending on the amount of players. The number of players who receive Worlds invites from the Last Chance Qualifier is dependent on how many Worlds spots have been claimed through Premier Ratings and other tournaments.

The event hosts top players from around the world competing for the title of Pokémon TCG World Champion. In the 2009-2010 season, these events do not have a {{TCG|K-Value}}, since they are the final event of the year.

===Gym & Stadium Challenges===
In these events, players from many areas came together to play for a World Championships invitation. Stadium Challenges were phased out in the 2005-2006 season, and Gym Challenges were ended begining in the 2006-2007 season in favor of Battle Road Tournaments, similar to those held in Japan.

Typical prizes included an invitation to play in the World Championships of that year, a travel award and hotel stay for the tournament (for those who ranked high up), a combination of Booster packs, a stamped promotional card and commemorative pin.
{{-}}

==Video Game Championships==
Similar to the TCG, the Pokémon video game leagues are run by those in conjunction with organizers. The genesis of the video games championships event was the [[Pokémon 10th Anniversary Journey Across America]], where tournaments were held as part of the tour. The first National Championships in Video Games was held at the [[Party of the Decade]] on August 8, 2006 at {{wp|Bryant Park}} in {{wp|New York City}}.

===Regional Championships===
[[File:Video Game Championships logo.png|thumb|right|Logo for the Pokémon Video Game Championship Series worldwide.]]Usually held in the United States in April through June, up to six sites host a regional championship event. Players (divided into Junior and Senior divisions) in 2010 utilized {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} for their region (North American) games entering a team of six legal Pokémon in the contest; player limits were 512 for the Junior division and 768 for the Senior division at each regional event; each round is single elimination in the GS Cup format in the Battle Arena. In each round, players use four of their six legal registered Pokémon, and can change team members between rounds.

HM05

Its-a-me Pikachu!: Fixed link

[[HM]]s are multiple use [[TM]]s that serve a purpose out of battle, as well as being [[move]]s for in-battle use; however, prior to [[Generation V]], in order to use an HM's purpose out of battle, a [[badge|Gym Badge]] is required. '''HM05''' is:

{{HMtable

}}

==Trivia==
* In Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, HM05 has the item sprite of a {{type2|Water}} HM, even though {{m|Defog}} is a {{type2|Flying}} move. It is possible that this is because Defog's HeartGold and SoulSilver counterpart, Whirlpool, is a Water-type move.
* HM05 is the only HM and only machine move so far that has changed moves within a generation, from Defog in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum to {{m|Whirlpool}} in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
* HM05 has contained the most different moves of any HM, teaching four different moves throughout the series. Due to its changing moves mid-generation as mentioned above, it is also the only machine that has contained four different moves (the maximum possible) that contained the same move for more than one generation.
** Interestingly, two of the moves it has contained are the two HM moves which first appeared as HMs in [[Generation II]].

{{incomplete|needs=more Generation V info.}}
[[File:Trade Pt.png|frame|Trading confirmation screen in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
A '''trade''' is a process in which a [[Pokémon Trainer]] sends one of his or her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to another trainer in exchange for one of the other trainer's Pokémon. In every Pokémon game, trading is necessary to collect all Pokémon.

Starting from [[Generation II]], [[items]] can be attached to Pokémon when traded. The only items unable to be traded are [[Key Items]], [[HMs]], the [[Griseous Orb]] in [[Generation IV]], and [[TMs]] in [[Generation V]]. Certain items, when held by the correct Pokémon, will trigger an evolution when traded to another player. [[Mail]] may also be attached to send a message.

==Benefits of trading==
[[File:Platinum trade.png|frame|Trading a {{p|Buizel}} for a {{p|Chatot}} in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
Trading is necessary in order to collect every Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]], as some Pokémon aren't available in each edition. For example, Meowth cannot be found in Pokémon Red, and the player must trade with someone who has a copy of Pokémon Blue. Some Pokémon only [[Evolution|evolve]] after being traded. Trading away a Pokémon will not remove its Pokédex entry.

Traded Pokémon gain 1.5× the normal [[experience]] after a [[Pokémon battle]]. Pokémon traded from another country will gain 1.7× experience.

Trading may also be used to transfer additional instances of limited and rare items, such as [[Master Ball]]s or [[Soul Dew]]s, from one game to another by making a Pokémon [[Held item|hold them]].

==Drawbacks of trading==
A traded Pokémon is referred to as an [[outsider Pokémon]], and will only obey a trainer with the sufficient number of gym badges. In addition, a traded Pokémon's nickname cannot be changed except if traded back to the original trainer. Even if a Pokémon wasn't given a nickname by its original trainer, then the trainer to whom it was traded still cannot change its name.

Traded Pokémon are identified by the Pokémon's [[Original Trainer]] name and a five-digit [[Trainer ID number|ID Number]]. Starting in [[Generation III]], even if two games have the same name and ID number, each trainer also has a [[secret ID number]]. The odds of two trainers having the same secret ID numbers is 1/65536 or approximately 0.002%, making it extremely unlikely that an outsider Pokémon will be treated as a regular Pokémon on a different cartridge.

In Generations I and II, an outsider Pokémon does not gain as many stats upon leveling up as a regular Pokémon.

==Limitations on trading==
===Trading between game generations===
Pokémon can be traded between [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] games using the [[Time Capsule]] feature. For compatibility purposes, the Pokémon to be traded from the Generation II game must be {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|a species that existed in Generation I}} and cannot have any {{cat|Generation II moves|moves introduced in Generation II}}.

Using [[Pal Park]], players can transfer Pokémon from their [[Generation III]] games to [[Generation IV]] games; however, Pokémon cannot be returned from Generation IV to Generation III. Additionally, Pokémon sent through Pal Park cannot know any Generation III [[HM]] moves. Similarly, using the Shift Factory, transfer is possible from Generation IV to [[Generation V]], although as well as the limitation on HM moves, the Pokémon must not be holding any items. It is also possible to use a method called the Transfer Machine to transfer specific event Pokémon before reaching the Shift Factory, although the same restrictions apply.

Trading between Generations I and II, III and IV and IV and V is impossible due to the vastly different data structures that were introduced in Generation III (such as [[Individual Values]] ranging from 0 to 31), as well as the difficulty in linking a Game Boy Color game to a Game Boy Advance game and the lack of any link cable ports on later systems.

===International trading===
Trading between Japanese and non-Japanese games is not recommended in Generations I and II, mostly due to the different memory locations within the RAM. While possible, these trades will result in the corruption of save files, forcing a player to restart their game from the beginning.<ref>http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp#erasing</ref> Trading between games released outside of Japan, such as between a Spanish {{game|Crystal}} and a French {{game|Yellow}}, does not result in any corruption.

Trading became possible between all versions of the games in [[Generation III]], where the English language text was programmed in even in Japanese games. Due to the relatively low chance of English and other language games coming into contact with Japanese games, however, precautions were not taken in the Japanese games to preserve a Pokémon or Trainer's name when traded in, as their maximum lengths are different. While games released outside Japan will display a Pokémon's OT and nickname fully, Japanese games will only display the first five letters.

International trading became full-fledged in Generation IV, and was a much touted feature, with the linkage of the games to the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. Pokémon from foreign-language games would unlock international Pokédex entries if traded to a game of a different language; at first, only 14 Pokémon could do this, however, from Platinum onward, all Pokémon can potentially allow for foreign entries.

Interestingly, Pokémon traded from Korean-language Generation IV games will not display their names nor OTs in other language variants, because the characters are not programmed into non-Korean Generation IV games. Korean games, however, will display names from all other games.

===Hardware requirements===
Trading requires two game consoles and two Pokémon games of compatible generations. Nintendo's intention is that players trade with friends, although some serious players purchase two consoles and two copies of the game.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], trading required a [[link cable]] or a [[GBA Wireless Adapter]]. Although the Nintendo DS supports [[Generation III]] games, it cannot be used to trade between those games as the DS lacks hardware support for the link cable. Also, Transfer Packs can be used to trade in [[Generation I]] and in [[Generation II]], via [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|Pokémon Stadium]] and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]].

The [[Pal Park]] feature of [[Generation IV]] games uses the GBA slot of the Nintendo DS, so unlike other trading requires only one game console. However, it is not compatible with the [[Nintendo DSi]] or [[Nintendo DSi XL|DSi XL]], which do not have a GBA slot.

==Requirements for trading==
===Generation I===
The {{player}} cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Pallet Town]].

===Generation II===
The player cannot trade Pokémon before transporting the {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Mystery Egg}} to [[Professor Elm]]. The [[Time Capsule]] cannot be used until the player has met [[Bill]] at [[Ecruteak City]]'s [[Pokémon Center]], and waiting until the next day when setup is completed.

===Generation III===
===={{3v|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Birch]] at [[Littleroot Town]]. To trade, the player must have at least two Pokémon in the party. In Emerald, trading with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is prohibited unless the National Pokédex has been obtained, while trading with FireRed and LeafGreen in Ruby and Sapphire will itself activate the National Pokédex automatically.

===={{2v|FireRed|LeafGreen}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from Professor Oak at Pallet Town. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party in order to trade. Trades with Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald are possible only after bringing the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Ruby}} and {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Sapphire}} key items to complete [[Celio]]'s [[Network Machine]], which can be done only after the player has become the champion and obtained the National Pokédex. Also, if someone trades a [[pokemon]] that [[evolution|evolves]] by trading into a [[Generation II]] pokemon, that pokemon will stop evolving.

====[[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]====
The player cannot trade Pokémon with the GBA games in Colosseum until [[Evice]] has been defeated, while the player must have defeated [[Greevil]] in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness to trade. Trading any unpurified [[Shadow Pokémon]] is completely prohibited, as data for Shadow moves doesn't exist in the GBA games, nor the ability to purify them.

It is not possible to directly trade between Colosseum and XD.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Platinum trade ball.png|frame|A trade in Generation IV]]
===={{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Rowan]] at [[Sandgem Town]]. Also, the player has to have at least two Pokémon in the party. Migrating Pokémon from the Generation III games through [[Pal Park]] cannot be done until the [[National Pokédex]] has been obtained. There is no prerequisite to obtain a non-regional Pokémon when trading Pokémon from another Generation IV game. In Platinum, the player is now able to press B to select the "CANCEL" button.

====[[My Pokémon Ranch]]====
Hayley will only offer to trade with the player after they have completed a wanted request, and will only trade specific Pokémon and only if she has already brought one of them to the Ranch.

===={{2v|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}====
Similar to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, trading cannot occur until the player has obtained his or her Pokédex from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Mr. Pokémon|Mr. Pokémon's house]]. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party; but no additional prerequisite is needed to trade with the Sinnoh games: this can be done at the very beginning of the game. Migrating Pokémon from Generation III games through Pal Park is also possible later in the game if the player has a Nintendo DS or DS Lite.

===Generation V===

===={{2v|Black|White}}====
Trading cannot occur until the player has defeated the first gym leader and obtained the [[C-Gear]].

==Pokémon which evolve when traded==
Many of these Pokémon also require [[evolution-inducing held item|an item]] to be held by them at the time of trading for their evolution to take place.

===From [[Generation I]]===
* {{p|Kadabra}} → {{p|Alakazam}}
* {{p|Machoke}} → {{p|Machamp}}
* {{p|Graveler}} → {{p|Golem}}
* {{p|Haunter}} → {{p|Gengar}}

===From [[Generation II]]===
* {{p|Poliwhirl}} → {{p|Politoed}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} is held)
* {{p|Slowpoke}} → {{p|Slowking}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} is held)
* {{p|Onix}} → {{p|Steelix}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Metal Coat}} is held)
* {{p|Seadra}} → {{p|Kingdra}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dragon Scale}} is held)
* {{p|Scyther}} → {{p|Scizor}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Metal Coat}} is held)
* {{p|Porygon}} → {{p|Porygon2}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Up-Grade}} is held)

===From [[Generation III]]===
* {{p|Clamperl}} → {{p|Huntail}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|DeepSeaTooth}} is held)
* {{p|Clamperl}} → {{p|Gorebyss}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|DeepSeaScale}} is held)

===From [[Generation IV]]===
* {{p|Rhydon}} → {{p|Rhyperior}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Protector}} is held)
* {{p|Electabuzz}} → {{p|Electivire}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Electirizer}} is held)
* {{p|Magmar}} → {{p|Magmortar}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Magmarizer}} is held)
* {{p|Porygon2}} → {{p|Porygon-Z}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dubious Disc}} is held)
* {{p|Dusclops}} → {{p|Dusknoir}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Reaper Cloth}} is held)

===From [[Generation V]]===
* {{p|Feebas}} → {{p|Milotic}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Beauty Scale}} is held)
* {{p|Gantoru}} → {{p|Gigalith}}
* {{p|Dotekkotsu}} → {{p|Roobushin}}
* {{p|Kaburumo}} → {{p|Shubarugo}} (if traded for {{p|Chobomaki}})
* {{p|Chobomaki}} → {{p|Agirudaa}} (if traded for {{p|Kaburumo}})

==Trades in the anime==
[[File:Trade machine.png|thumb|{{an|Dawn}} and {{Ash}} preparing to trade]]
Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is unusually rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Only a few trades have taken place, and only four of them thus far have been truly significant. Fans have often speculated about the reason for this. Rather than simply exchanging Pokémon, most trades are carried out by placing [[Poké Ball]]s into a specialized [[Trade machine|trading machine]], with a monitor that displays silhouettes of the two Pokémon as they pass each other.
* In ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]'', {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Butterfree}} for a [[Gentleman]]'s {{AP|Raticate}}. He wasn't happy with the trade, however, so he traded it back by the end of the episode.
* In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', [[Jessie]] unintentionally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for {{jo|Benny}}'s {{tp|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}.
* In ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', James is forced by Jessie to trade his {{TP|James|Victreebel}} for the [[Magikarp salesman]]'s {{p|Weepinbell}}.
*In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Aipom}} for {{an|Dawn}}'s {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}.

The trade machine used in the anime has seemingly been adapted into the game canon, with [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory in both {{en|Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] having this type of machine for trades. In the same way, when link cables were finally able to accept the data of two Pokémon being sent at once (rather than one at a time as in [[Generation I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}), the Pokémon are shown passing each other in the link space.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, there is a [[Scientist]] at the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]] that would trade a Raichu for an {{p|Electrode}}. If the player talked to him after the trade, he would mention that the Raichu evolved, which is not possible. This mistake, which was due to the original translation being of the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]]'s script, where you trade a {{p|Kadabra}} for his {{p|Graveler}}, both of which would evolve as a result, was corrected in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
*Every trade in the anime that involves a main character has resulted in at least one of the traded Pokémon later being released, except for the trade between {{jo|Benny}} and [[Jessie]].
*{{p|Porygon}} is the only Pokémon to evolve twice via trading.
**In addition, {{p|Porygon2}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can evolve further.
**Both evolutions require a held item to succeed, namely the [[Up-Grade]] and the [[Dubious Disc]].
*{{p|Clamperl}} is the only Pokémon that can evolve into one of two Pokémon where both evolutions are achieved by trading.
* Pokémon traded between languages in Generation III, if not nicknamed, will preserve their foreign-language species name even through evolution as if it were a nickname. Thus, a Japanese Charmander named ヒトカゲ if traded to an English game for a Pichu named PICHU will evolve and keep the name ヒトカゲ even as a Charmeleon, when its Japanese species name would be リザード. Likewise, a Pichu evolved in the Japanese game would keep the name PICHU even as a Pikachu. This was solved with a bit that determined whether or not a Pokémon had been nicknamed in the Generation IV games.
** Interestingly, however, this bit's existence undoes a previous feature, where a Pokémon that evolved twice (such as Oddish), if nicknamed in all-caps the name of its evolved form (in this case, "GLOOM"), when evolved through that stage to its final form will become un-nicknamed again (taking the name "BELLOSSOM" or "VILEPLUME").
* All trading animations are shown using the standard Poké Ball, regardless of what type of ball the Pokémon being traded was actually caught in.

Trading between Generations I and II, III and IV and IV and V is impossible due to the vastly different data structures that were introduced in Generation III (such as [[Individual Values]] ranging from 0 to 31), as well as the difficulty in linking a Game Boy Color game to a Game Boy Advance game and the lack of any link cable ports on later systems.

===International trading===
Trading between Japanese and non-Japanese games is not recommended in Generations I and II, mostly due to the different memory locations within the RAM. While possible, these trades will result in the corruption of save files, forcing a player to restart their game from the beginning.<ref>http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp#erasing</ref> Trading between games released outside of Japan, such as between a Spanish {{game|Crystal}} and a French {{game|Yellow}}, does not result in any corruption.

Trading became possible between all versions of the games in [[Generation III]], where the English language text was programmed in even in Japanese games. Due to the relatively low chance of English and other language games coming into contact with Japanese games, however, precautions were not taken in the Japanese games to preserve a Pokémon or Trainer's name when traded in, as their maximum lengths are different. While games released outside Japan will display a Pokémon's OT and nickname fully, Japanese games will only display the first five letters.

International trading became full-fledged in Generation IV, and was a much touted feature, with the linkage of the games to the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. Pokémon from foreign-language games would unlock international Pokédex entries if traded to a game of a different language; at first, only 14 Pokémon could do this, however, from Platinum onward, all Pokémon can potentially allow for foreign entries.

Interestingly, Pokémon traded from Korean-language Generation IV games will not display their names nor OTs in other language variants, because the characters are not programmed into non-Korean Generation IV games. Korean games, however, will display names from all other games.

===Hardware requirements===
Trading requires two game consoles and two Pokémon games of compatible generations. Nintendo's intention is that players trade with friends, although some serious players purchase two consoles and two copies of the game.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], trading required a [[link cable]] or a [[GBA Wireless Adapter]]. Although the Nintendo DS supports [[Generation III]] games, it cannot be used to trade between those games as the DS lacks hardware support for the link cable. Also, Transfer Packs can be used to trade in [[Generation I]] and in [[Generation II]], via [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|Pokémon Stadium]] and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]

The [[Pal Park]] feature of [[Generation IV]] games uses the GBA slot of the Nintendo DS, so unlike other trading requires only one game console. However, it is not compatible with the [[Nintendo DSi]] or [[Nintendo DSi XL|DSi XL]], which do not have a GBA slot.

==Requirements for trading==
===Generation I===
The {{player}} cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Pallet Town]].

===Generation II===
The player cannot trade Pokémon before transporting the {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Mystery Egg}} to [[Professor Elm]]. The [[Time Capsule]] cannot be used until the player has met [[Bill]] at [[Ecruteak City]]'s [[Pokémon Center]], and waiting until the next day when setup is completed.

===Generation III===
===={{3v|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Birch]] at [[Littleroot Town]]. To trade, the player must have at least two Pokémon in the party. In Emerald, trading with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is prohibited unless the National Pokédex has been obtained, while trading with FireRed and LeafGreen in Ruby and Sapphire will itself activate the National Pokédex automatically.

===={{2v|FireRed|LeafGreen}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from Professor Oak at Pallet Town. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party in order to trade. Trades with Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald are possible only after bringing the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Ruby}} and {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Sapphire}} key items to complete [[Celio]]'s [[Network Machine]], which can be done only after the player has become the champion and obtained the National Pokédex. Also, if someone trades a [[pokemon]] that [[evolution|evolves]] by trading into a [[Generation II]] pokemon, that pokemon will stop evolving.

====[[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]====
The player cannot trade Pokémon with the GBA games in Colosseum until [[Evice]] has been defeated, while the player must have defeated [[Greevil]] in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness to trade. Trading any unpurified [[Shadow Pokémon]] is completely prohibited, as data for Shadow moves doesn't exist in the GBA games, nor the ability to purify them.

It is not possible to directly trade between Colosseum and XD.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Platinum trade ball.png|frame|A trade in Generation IV]]
===={{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Rowan]] at [[Sandgem Town]]. Also, the player has to have at least two Pokémon in the party. Migrating Pokémon from the Generation III games through [[Pal Park]] cannot be done until the [[National Pokédex]] has been obtained. There is no prerequisite to obtain a non-regional Pokémon when trading Pokémon from another Generation IV game. In Platinum, the player is now able to press B to select the "CANCEL" button.

====[[My Pokémon Ranch]]====
Hayley will only offer to trade with the player after they have completed a wanted request, and will only trade specific Pokémon and only if she has already brought one of them to the Ranch.

===={{2v|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}====
Similar to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, trading cannot occur until the player has obtained his or her Pokédex from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Mr. Pokémon|Mr. Pokémon's house]]. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party; but no additional prerequisite is needed to trade with the Sinnoh games: this can be done at the very beginning of the game. Migrating Pokémon from Generation III games through Pal Park is also possible later in the game if the player has a Nintendo DS or DS Lite.

===Generation V===

===={{2v|Black|White}}====
Trading cannot occur until the player has defeated the first gym leader and obtained the [[C-Gear]].

==Pokémon which evolve when traded==
Many of these Pokémon also require [[evolution-inducing held item|an item]] to be held by them at the time of trading for their evolution to take place.

===From [[Generation I]]===
* {{p|Kadabra}} → {{p|Alakazam}}
* {{p|Machoke}} → {{p|Machamp}}
* {{p|Graveler}} → {{p|Golem}}
* {{p|Haunter}} → {{p|Gengar}}

===From [[Generation II]]===
* {{p|Poliwhirl}} → {{p|Politoed}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} is held)
* {{p|Slowpoke}} → {{p|Slowking}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} is held)
* {{p|Onix}} → {{p|Steelix}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Metal Coat}} is held)
* {{p|Seadra}} → {{p|Kingdra}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dragon Scale}} is held)
* {{p|Scyther}} → {{p|Scizor}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Metal Coat}} is held)
* {{p|Porygon}} → {{p|Porygon2}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Up-Grade}} is held)

===From [[Generation III]]===
* {{p|Clamperl}} → {{p|Huntail}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|DeepSeaTooth}} is held)
* {{p|Clamperl}} → {{p|Gorebyss}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|DeepSeaScale}} is held)

===From [[Generation IV]]===
* {{p|Rhydon}} → {{p|Rhyperior}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Protector}} is held)
* {{p|Electabuzz}} → {{p|Electivire}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Electirizer}} is held)
* {{p|Magmar}} → {{p|Magmortar}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Magmarizer}} is held)
* {{p|Porygon2}} → {{p|Porygon-Z}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dubious Disc}} is held)
* {{p|Dusclops}} → {{p|Dusknoir}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Reaper Cloth}} is held)

===From [[Generation V]]===
* {{p|Feebas}} → {{p|Milotic}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Beauty Scale}} is held)
* {{p|Gantoru}} → {{p|Gigalith}}
* {{p|Dotekkotsu}} → {{p|Roobushin}}
* {{p|Kaburumo}} → {{p|Shubarugo}} (if traded for {{p|Chobomaki}})
* {{p|Chobomaki}} → {{p|Agirudaa}} (if traded for {{p|Kaburumo}})

==Trades in the anime==
[[File:Trade machine.png|thumb|{{an|Dawn}} and {{Ash}} preparing to trade]]
Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is unusually rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Only a few trades have taken place, and only four of them thus far have been truly significant. Fans have often speculated about the reason for this. Rather than simply exchanging Pokémon, most trades are carried out by placing [[Poké Ball]]s into a specialized [[Trade machine|trading machine]], with a monitor that displays silhouettes of the two Pokémon as they pass each other.
* In ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]'', {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Butterfree}} for a [[Gentleman]]'s {{AP|Raticate}}. He wasn't happy with the trade, however, so he traded it back by the end of the episode.
* In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', [[Jessie]] unintentionally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for {{jo|Benny}}'s {{tp|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}.
* In ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', James is forced by Jessie to trade his {{TP|James|Victreebel}} for the [[Magikarp salesman]]'s {{p|Weepinbell}}.
*In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Aipom}} for {{an|Dawn}}'s {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}.

The trade machine used in the anime has seemingly been adapted into the game canon, with [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory in both {{en|Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] having this type of machine for trades. In the same way, when link cables were finally able to accept the data of two Pokémon being sent at once (rather than one at a time as in [[Generation I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}), the Pokémon are shown passing each other in the link space.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, there is a [[Scientist]] at the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]] that would trade a Raichu for an {{p|Electrode}}. If the player talked to him after the trade, he would mention that the Raichu evolved, which is not possible. This mistake, which was due to the original translation being of the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]]'s script, where you trade a {{p|Kadabra}} for his {{p|Graveler}}, both of which would evolve as a result, was corrected in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
*Every trade in the anime that involves a main character has resulted in at least one of the traded Pokémon later being released, except for the trade between {{jo|Benny}} and [[Jessie]].
*{{p|Porygon}} is the only Pokémon to evolve twice via trading.
**In addition, {{p|Porygon2}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can evolve further.
**Both evolutions require a held item to succeed, namely the [[Up-Grade]] and the [[Dubious Disc]].
*{{p|Clamperl}} is the only Pokémon that can evolve into one of two Pokémon where both evolutions are achieved by trading.
* Pokémon traded between languages in Generation III, if not nicknamed, will preserve their foreign-language species name even through evolution as if it were a nickname. Thus, a Japanese Charmander named ヒトカゲ if traded to an English game for a Pichu named PICHU will evolve and keep the name ヒトカゲ even as a Charmeleon, when its Japanese species name would be リザード. Likewise, a Pichu evolved in the Japanese game would keep the name PICHU even as a Pikachu. This was solved with a bit that determined whether or not a Pokémon had been nicknamed in the Generation IV games.
** Interestingly, however, this bit's existence undoes a previous feature, where a Pokémon that evolved twice (such as Oddish), if nicknamed in all-caps the name of its evolved form (in this case, "GLOOM"), when evolved through that stage to its final form will become un-nicknamed again (taking the name "BELLOSSOM" or "VILEPLUME").
* All trading animations are shown using the standard Poké Ball, regardless of what type of ball the Pokémon being traded was actually caught in.

Trade

2010-12-30T04:21:53Z

Its-a-me Pikachu!: /* Hardware requirements */

{{incomplete|needs=more Generation V info.}}
[[File:Trade Pt.png|frame|Trading confirmation screen in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
A '''trade''' is a process in which a [[Pokémon Trainer]] sends one of his or her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to another trainer in exchange for one of the other trainer's Pokémon. In every Pokémon game, trading is necessary to collect all Pokémon.

Starting from [[Generation II]], [[items]] can be attached to Pokémon when traded. The only items unable to be traded are [[Key Items]], [[HMs]], the [[Griseous Orb]] in [[Generation IV]], and [[TMs]] in [[Generation V]]. Certain items, when held by the correct Pokémon, will trigger an evolution when traded to another player. [[Mail]] may also be attached to send a message.

==Benefits of trading==
[[File:Platinum trade.png|frame|Trading a {{p|Buizel}} for a {{p|Chatot}} in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
Trading is necessary in order to collect every Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]], as some Pokémon aren't available in each edition. For example, Meowth cannot be found in Pokémon Red, and the player must trade with someone who has a copy of Pokémon Blue. Some Pokémon only [[Evolution|evolve]] after being traded. Trading away a Pokémon will not remove its Pokédex entry.

Traded Pokémon gain 1.5× the normal [[experience]] after a [[Pokémon battle]]. Pokémon traded from another country will gain 1.7× experience.

Trading may also be used to transfer additional instances of limited and rare items, such as [[Master Ball]]s or [[Soul Dew]]s, from one game to another by making a Pokémon [[Held item|hold them]].

==Drawbacks of trading==
A traded Pokémon is referred to as an [[outsider Pokémon]], and will only obey a trainer with the sufficient number of gym badges. In addition, a traded Pokémon's nickname cannot be changed except if traded back to the original trainer. Even if a Pokémon wasn't given a nickname by its original trainer, then the trainer to whom it was traded still cannot change its name.

Traded Pokémon are identified by the Pokémon's [[Original Trainer]] name and a five-digit [[Trainer ID number|ID Number]]. Starting in [[Generation III]], even if two games have the same name and ID number, each trainer also has a [[secret ID number]]. The odds of two trainers having the same secret ID numbers is 1/65536 or approximately 0.002%, making it extremely unlikely that an outsider Pokémon will be treated as a regular Pokémon on a different cartridge.

In Generations I and II, an outsider Pokémon does not gain as many stats upon leveling up as a regular Pokémon.

==Limitations on trading==
===Trading between game generations===
Pokémon can be traded between [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] games using the [[Time Capsule]] feature. For compatibility purposes, the Pokémon to be traded from the Generation II game must be {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|a species that existed in Generation I}} and cannot have any {{cat|Generation II moves|moves introduced in Generation II}}.

Using [[Pal Park]], players can transfer Pokémon from their [[Generation III]] games to [[Generation IV]] games; however, Pokémon cannot be returned from Generation IV to Generation III. Additionally, Pokémon sent through Pal Park cannot know any Generation III [[HM]] moves. Similarly, using the Shift Factory, transfer is possible from Generation IV to [[Generation V]], although as well as the limitation on HM moves, the Pokémon must not be holding any items. It is also possible to use a method called the Transfer Machine to transfer specific event Pokémon before reaching the Shift Factory, although the same restrictions apply.

Trading between Generations I and II, III and IV and IV and V is impossible due to the vastly different data structures that were introduced in Generation III (such as [[Individual Values]] ranging from 0 to 31), as well as the difficulty in linking a Game Boy Color game to a Game Boy Advance game and the lack of any link cable ports on later systems.

===International trading===
Trading between Japanese and non-Japanese games is not recommended in Generations I and II, mostly due to the different memory locations within the RAM. While possible, these trades will result in the corruption of save files, forcing a player to restart their game from the beginning.<ref>http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp#erasing</ref> Trading between games released outside of Japan, such as between a Spanish {{game|Crystal}} and a French {{game|Yellow}}, does not result in any corruption.

Trading became possible between all versions of the games in [[Generation III]], where the English language text was programmed in even in Japanese games. Due to the relatively low chance of English and other language games coming into contact with Japanese games, however, precautions were not taken in the Japanese games to preserve a Pokémon or Trainer's name when traded in, as their maximum lengths are different. While games released outside Japan will display a Pokémon's OT and nickname fully, Japanese games will only display the first five letters.

===Structure===
Articles need not be long but should at least contain a few paragraphs.

The opening sentence should follow this structure:
<nowiki>'''(Character)''' is a is a one-time character in the Pokémon anime who appeared in the</nowiki> <nowiki>episode ''[[(Episode code)|(Episode title)]]''</nowiki>
The opening paragraph should then continue to give any basic information about the character, including their voice actor in the English and Japanese versions.

The second paragraph should give a detailed description, including their personality and any information that is provided in the episode. This should be taken from the perspective of their situation at the start of the episode.

The third paragraph should give a brief description of their role in the episode including any character development undergone.

After the text, a list of the character's Pokémon should be added where appropriate, using either {{template|TrainerPoké}} or {{template|InactivePoké}}.

Don't forget to categorize any new pages:
<nowiki>[[Category:Characters of the day]]</nowiki>
If the character has a surname, categorize it as such:
<nowiki>[[Category:Characters of the day|(Surname), (Other names)]]</nowiki>

Cry

Its-a-me Pikachu!: /* Trivia */

[[File:Regigigas cry.png|frame|The cry of {{p|Regigigas}}, as seen on the [[Pokédex]]]]
A Pokémon's '''cry''' (Japanese: '''なきごえ''' ''cry'') is the sound it makes. In most of the franchise's interpretations, this is only its name and various phrases derived from its name. However, there are several instances of [[talking Pokémon]].

==In the games==
When a Pokémon is released from its [[Poké Ball]], it will call out its cry, which consists of an electronically made "noise". It will also cry out when using certain moves, such as {{m|Growl}}, {{m|Roar}}, and {{m|Hyper Voice}}. If the Pokémon faints or comes into [[Pokémon battle|battle]] when injured during [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]], the cry will sound, but it will be altered slightly. The cry is also changed noticeably when a Pokémon is sent into a battle with a [[status ailment]]. Pokémon with [[evolution]]ary relations to each other (such as {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Charmeleon}}) will often have notably similar cries, though others may sound very different (such as {{p|Kirlia}} and {{p|Gallade}}).

In the wild, cries of the Pokémon found in the player's current location can occasionally be heard in the [[Generation III]] [[Hoenn]]- and [[Kanto]]-based games. Also, if the player's first Pokémon in his or her [[party]] has the [[ability]] {{a|Swarm}}, then these cries will be more common than before.

In the Pokémon Stadium series, Pokémon's cries were altered from their Game Boy versions in order to better take advantage of the Nintendo 64's greater level of processing and data storage, though some of these cries resemble the Game Boy versions closely. This was not carried over into later console battle games, which use the same cries as the handheld versions.

==In the anime==
Most Pokémon will only say their names, and will communicate using those syllables. For example, [[Ash's Pikachu]] has been known to use the three syllables in the word "Pikachu" in various combinations to refer to several characters, including {{Ash}} (''Pikapi''), {{an|Misty}} (''PiKachupi''), {{an|Brock}} (''PikaChu''), {{an|Dawn}} (''Pikaka''), {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} (''Pipipi''), [[Team Rocket]] (''Pipikachu''), {{AP|Bulbasaur}} (''Pikakapika'') and "My name is Pikachu" (''Pika, Pikachu'').

Due to Pokémon being dubbed, sometimes, the original cry of a Pokémon is preserved in the anime, more often than not if the name is either similar or the same in Japanese and English. An example of this would be {{p|Charizard}}, which can, if listened to closely enough, be heard to cry out ''Lizardon'' instead. Likewise, all {{p|Onix}} can be heard to cry out ''Iwark''. {{p|Krabby}}'s cry, which sounds similar to "cookie", is sometimes used as an internet meme. Also, Wooper's cry sounds like "Upah!" which is its Japanese name, ''Upah''.

Some Pokémon's cries, such as those of {{p|Victreebel}}, {{p|Porygon}}, {{p|Starmie}} and {{p|Staryu}}, are entirely unrelated to their names in any language. For example, Victreebel makes a screeching sound while Staryu has a cry that sounds like a fast, echoing male scream.

== Trivia ==
* Several pairs of [[Generation I]] Pokémon share the same cry, despite not being related by evolution. Such examples may include:
** {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Rhyhorn}}
** {{p|Poliwag}} and {{p|Ditto}}
** {{p|Goldeen}} and {{p|Caterpie}}






* While the cry of several other Generation I Pokémon may seem the same, they are merely alike, as they have differences in pitch.
*{{p|Shaymin}}'s Sky Forme and Land Forme have different cries, making it the first Pokémon to have different cries for different forms.
* {{p|Pikachu}} is the only Pokémon to have its cry changed without changing forms. In {{game|Yellow}}, Pikachu's cry is actually provided by [[Ikue Ohtani]]. This is also the case if the {{pkmn2|starter}} Pikachu from Yellow is brought to battle in [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|Pokémon Stadium]] or [[Pokémon Stadium 2]].
* From [[Generation II]] onwards, possibly due to improved technology, very few Pokémon were released with cries similar to another; those that do have similar cries are usually related by [[evolution]] as they were in Generation I. As the generations continue to pass, the calls of new Pokémon seem much cleaner and more refined, while the cries of Pokémon released in previous generations, in comparison, sound more like the electronic beeps they are. In particular, the cries of Pokémon introduced in [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation V]] are mostly recognizable digitized sounds, such as birds chirping for {{p|Starly}} or a xylophone being played for {{p|Kricketot}}.
* Despite there being 151 Pokémon in Generation I, there are only 37 completely different cries in the game. However, different Pokémon's cries are either pitched up, down, faster, slower, or disable one of the sound channels, making it harder to recognize. For example, Charmander and Charmeleon's cries are the same, but an instruction in the game tells the pitch for Charmeleon to be lower than Charmander's. Despite this, some Pokémon share the exact same cry with no sound tweaking, such as Charizard and Rhyhorn. In Generation II, there were 30 new cries introduced, applying the same rules as before (with some new Pokémon, especially those related to Generation I Pokémon like Crobat and Umbreon using a Generation I cry). Notably, two trios of Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]] have almost identical cries, even if they are not related: {{p|Yanappu}}, {{p|Baoppu}} and {{p|Hiyappu}}'s cries are only different because of distortions added. The same is true for their evolved forms.
* In Generation I, when a player's Pokémon has low HP in the course of a battle, the cry will get deformed. This is likely due to the fact that the game has to perform two simultaneous processes: one for the alarm sound of low HP and the other for playing the Pokémon's cry. This problem was fixed in Generation II.
** This situation occurs both when the Pokémon is sent out into battle and when its information is checked.
** This may have been inspiration for the alteration to cries that occurs when an injured Pokémon is sent into battle from Generation III on.

'''Weezing''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マタドガス''' ''Matadogas'') is a {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Koffing}} starting at [[level]] 35.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Weezing mostly look like two {{P|Koffing}} stuck together, with one bigger than the other. The smaller head only has a circle on it, instead of the skull-and-crossbones. It also has a third chamber and two appendages connecting the three segments. The larger head has prominent eyebrows, pointed teeth protruding from its lower jaw, and flatter teeth on its upper jaw. Triplet Weezing have been discovered, although they are extremely rare.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Each head contains a different toxin. When one head inflates, the other deflates, mixing the gases. By doing this multiple times, it becomes more toxic and noxious, although it does have the side effect of making Weezing smell worse. Ironically, exquisite perfumes can be extracted from Weezing's toxic secretions. A Weezing is capable of generating {{m|Thunderbolt|elec}}{{m|Shock Wave|tri}}{{m|Thunder|city}}, as well as {{m|Flamethrower|breathing}} {{m|Fire Blast|fire}}. It is also capable of {{m|SelfDestruct|explo}}{{m|Explosion|ding}}.

===Behavior===
A Weezing will find a dirty, unkept house and nest there. At night, when the people in the house are asleep, Weezing will go through the trash. It constantly inflates and deflates its heads to mix its {{m|Poison Gas|poison gases}}.

It's been explicitly stated that Koffing, Weezing's pre-evolution, is able to hover in midair due to its gases being lighter than air. Although the same has never been explicitly stated for Weezing, it can be assumed that this is the case, as Weezing displays an ability to {{a|Levitate|float in midair}} seemingly identical to Koffing's. It is, however, a known fact that a Weezing's gases are less dense than water, enabling it to float on the surface of water effortlessly, although this also means that Weezing is essentially unable to spend any amount of time underwater.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]
Weezing live in urban and suburban areas, and can often be found in dirty, unkempt houses. Active volcanoes are also a good place to find them. Their native range includes [[Kanto]], [[Johto]] and [[Sinnoh]]'s [[Battle Zone]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Weezing feed on the dust, microorganisms, and especially gases emitted by garbage and toxic waste. Weezing consider gases that emanate from garbage to be the ultimate feast.

==In the anime==
[[Image:JamesWeezing.png|thumb|right|230px|{{TP|James|Weezing}} in the anime]]
===Major Appearances===
====[[James's Weezing]]====
[[James]]'s {{p|Koffing}} evolved into {{TP|James|Weezing}} during ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett]]''. In ''[[AG006|A Poached Ego]]'', it left them with [[Jessie's Arbok]] to protect a group of Koffing and {{p|Ekans}} that were freed from the captivity of a [[Pokémon poacher]].

====Other====

===Minor Appearances===
{{Ash}} used a [[Pokémon League entrance exam instructor#Weezing| Weezing]] in a [[Pokémon League]] entrance exam in ''[[EP056|The Ultimate Test]]''. It defeated the instructor's {{p|Flareon}} with its {{m|Smog}}, {{m|SmokeScreen}}, and {{m|Tackle}} attacks. Later on, Ash commanded it to use {{m|Explosion}} against Team Rocket, causing them to blast off.

==In the manga==
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[James's Weezing]] makes an appearance in the manga [[Electric Tale of Pikachu|The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]. It first appears as a {{p|Koffing}} in ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]''. All of its subsequent appearances, beginning in ''[[ET08|You Gotta Have Friends]]'', are as a Weezing.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Both [[Koga]] and his daughter, [[Janine]], have Weezing as a part of their [[party|arsenals]]. Besides these, many Weezing have been shown in the wild, most notably in the Rocket-altered ecosystem of the [[Viridian Forest]], or sometimes simply under [[Team Rocket|Rocket]] command.

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

==In the TFG==
One Weezing figure has been released.

* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Weezing|24}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Weezing will emit {{m|Poison Gas}} that juggles any opponent who comes near it.

Weezing is also a float in the Poké Float stage. It appears as {{p|Chikorita}} leaves. Once {{p|Slowpoke}} appears, it will slowly deflate and move to the top of the screen.

====Trophy information====
The evolved form of Koffing, Weezing is basically a pair of Koffing fused together. They tend to float in the air and emit gas or noxious smoke from the outgrowths that cover their bodies. As strange as it may seem, diluting Weezing emissions as much as possible creates one of the most exquisite perfumes known to man.

==Trivia==
* In the English version of the game, Weezing was originally going to have the name ''La'', the abbreviation of {{wp|Los Angeles, California|Los Angeles}}, possibly representing its polluted air.
**This would have made it, and its pre-evolution, the Pokémon with the shortest English name. As of [[Generation IV]], that honor is held by {{p|Muk}} and {{p|Mew}}, both of which were also introduced in [[Generation I]].
* Weezing and {{p|Koffing}} are the the only pure {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon immune to {{type2|Ground}} attacks, due to their in-game ability, {{a|Levitate}}.
* Weezing has the highest {{stat|Defense}} out of all Poison-type Pokémon.
* In certain instances in the games, such as [[Pokémon Contests]], a Pokémon's sprite will be flipped, unless its body is asymmetrical. For some reason, Weezing's sprite will get flipped in all instances despite its asymmetrical body. However, it may be explained by the twin bodies alternately inflating and deflating, as mentioned in the Pokédex, although this wouldn't explain why whichever head is larger has the skull and crossbones pattern when the smaller head lacks the crossbones.
* In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} Pokédex entries for Weezing state that triplet forms have been discovered; however, this variant has not been shown in any Pokémon media.
** However, a third section of Weezing (without a face) appears on every Weezing seen so far.

===Origin===
Considering its looks, its ability to float, and its tendency to explode, it may have been based upon a floating {{wp|naval mine}}. It is also based on smog and other forms of air pollution.

====Name origin====
Weezing's name is a corruption of the word ''wheezing''. Its Japanese name may come from 又 ''mata'', again, and 獰 ''dō'', meaning bad, or 毒 ''doku'', meaning poisonous, and ''{{wp|gas}}''. Essentially, it is a doubling of Koffing's Japanese name, and thus a doubling of Koffing – which is exactly what Weezing is.

==In other languages==
* [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Smogmog - Doubling of Koffing's German name.
* [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Smogogo - Doubling of Koffing's French name.
* [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 또도가스 ''Ttodogaseu'' - ''Mata'' is changed to ''tto'' in Japanese name. ''Tto'' means again.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 雙彈瓦斯 ''Shuāng Dàn Wǎ Sī'' - "Double gas bomb", 瓦斯 ''Wǎ Sī'' means gas.

== Galactic Boss ==

When a Trainer's title refers to only one specific individual, we redirect that article to the character's article. E.g. [[Arcade Star]]→[[Arcade Star Dahlia]]; [[Galactic Boss (Trainer class)]]→[[Cyrus]].

Additionally, you must categorise every new page you create. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:24, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

== Help!!!!!!!==
could someone help me with my userpage!!!!! [[User:lilkaykaygal]] 09:27, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
:Nevermind I think I have the hang of this--[[User:Lilkaykaygal|Lilkaykaygal]] 11:41, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
== Talk pages ==

When you start a new talk place discussion, please add the new discussion to the bottom of the page, because talk page discussions are listed in order from oldest to newest. An easy way to do this is to click the "+" at the top of a talk page, just to the right of "Edit this page". Thanks! :) --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 14:00, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

== Sorry ==

Sorry for doing those guys. I just haven't gotten the hang of editing yet. It's kind of why I need help with my page a little but. I really don't know all those codes and everything. [[User:lilkaykaygal]] 7:55, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

==Hi==
I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot recently. Please don't do it any more, though. Bulbapedia's {{bp|Userspace policy}} restricts the amount you can edit your userpage. This policy was instated to prevent strain on our server, and also to promote people helping out in the {{bp|mainspace}}. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal userpage. The more often you edit in the mainspace, the more you will be allowed to edit your userpage. Thanks! --- [[User:Kogoro|'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>''']] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>''']] - 03:09, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

== Still Getting Used to ==

I had no idea that a thing like that actually happens. See I'm new so I'm trying to get used to how things work around the site.
:We understand, but at the same time, please use the ''Show preview'' button below the editbox instead of saving so many edits in quick succession. Your recent userpage edit is ''still on the same day'' as your previous seven, and that's '''''waaaaay''''' over the limit. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 09:14, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

== Userspace ==

Alright, we have a bit of a problem here. Since the start of July, you have made a grand total of '''1''' edit to the mainspace, compared to a grand total of '''14''' edits to the userspace. Bulbapedia is not a social networking site, Bulbapedia is a Pokémon Encyclopedia. This means that users should be doing things productive to the encyclopedia. So, please, stop editing the userspace for a good while, and focus your energy on helping Bulbapedia stay the best source of Pokémon information on the web. Thanks, - [[User:Kogoro|'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>''']] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>''']] - 01:22, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

== Your signature ==

Images can't be in your signature. Maybe you should take a look at the signature policy in the welcome template above. Look around at the other policies while you're there.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 08:28, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry I got confused with Super Mario Wiki-[[User:lilkaykaygal|lilkaykaygal]]

== Me ==

Aright just so everyone knows, and to make things clear, please, please, please do not use bad language on my talkpage since I'm only an 11 year old girl and all. So please don't do that.- [[User:lilkaykaygal|lilkaykaygal]] , 12:17, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
:The only time anyone would swear at you is if they are a vandal/troll/arrogant prick, or if you're in a heated arguement with someone. You ''almost'' have nothing to worry about.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 16:19, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

== Welcome Template ==
Just so you know, when you welcome a new user on their talk page, you just have to type <nowiki>{{subst:welcome}}</nowiki> and it automatically puts the welcome template in for you. That way you don't have to copy and paste the entire code. [[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]]♫[[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 03:00, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
:Oh right thanks!--[[User:lilkaykaygal|lilkaykaygal]] 3:01, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
::No problem :) --[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]]♫[[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 03:56, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
:::And if you accidentally create it in someone's userspace rather than on a talk page, ''don't'' blank the page. That makes things messy. Instead, inform an administrator (ideally an active one in the RC) to delete the page or move it to the correct location. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 11:33, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
::::Oh I didn't think you could do that--[[User:Lilkaykaygal|Lilkaykaygal]] 11:35, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

::::::Oh Thank you--[[User:Lilkaykaygal|Lilkaykaygal]] 11:41, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

== Japanese text ==

Sorry for the late response, I had to do other things right after I sent that message. Anyway, to type in Japanese you first need to download the Japanese one [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/download-input-method-editors-to-use-with-office-xp-HA001034736.aspx here] (assuming you have Windows, I don't know what OS you are using). To type in Japanese afterwoods, go to the bottom right of your start bar and click on the language button. Then select "show language bar". Change the language to Japanese. Then you select the input mode, Hiragana for Hiragan and full-width Katakana for Katakana (I'm not really sure what the other options are for). To convert words to Kanji, use the space bar to cycle through. To get little letters, you can enter "x" infront of the name, so "xa" results in ぁ or ァ. - becomes ー and . becomes 。

Note that all of this only applies to Windows and you need an understanding of Japanese scripts to type it.

Hope I helped. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:30, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

== [[User:Lilkaykaygal/User Twerpette|User Twerpette]] ==

Hey KayKay, could I get your permission to edit it for a sec? I think I can put a "switch" on it so that if a user writes <tt><nowiki>{{User twerp|twerpette}}</nowiki></tt>, your style comes up.

== Random Pokémon ==

I noticed that you are using my random Pokémon code on your page. I don't mind that you are doing this (actually, I'd like you to keep using it), but could you please give me credit for it? Thanks. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 05:12, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
:Sure no problem--[[User:lilkaykaygal|KayKay]]|[[User talk:Lilkaykaygal|Chat to me!]] 05:14, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
::BTW, I recently made it into a template. [[User:SnorlaxMonster/Random]]. If you transclude this onto your page, it means that you can get any updates I make to it done automatically. Not only that, but it automatically gives me credit if used outside of my userspace, so you don't have to worry about that. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:21, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
:::Oh cool!!!!!--[[User:lilkaykaygal|KayKay]]|[[User talk:Lilkaykaygal|Chat to me!]] 09:03, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

==Userspace==
Once again, a fair majority of your recent edits have been to your userspace, many of these edits being completely personal based. Not to mention that you have made a grand total of '''7''' personal edits today, and the {{bp|userspace policy}}'s limit is 3 per day. So, I would ''strongly'' suggest avoiding your personal pages for a while, and get back to working on things in or for the mainspace. Thanks - [[User:Kogoro|'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>''']] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>''']] - 11:19, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

== Link templates ==

Why did you undo that edit I made to Black and White that fixed the link templates? Seriously, link templates are important, especially when linking to Pokémon. When linking to Pokémon, use <nowiki>{{p|Tsutarja}}</nowiki>, not <nowiki>[[Tsutarja]]</nowiki>, which links to a disambig page.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 09:48, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
I don't remember doing that but if i did it might of been that time where I accidentally saved the page. I'm sorry.--[[User:lilkaykaygal|KayKay]]|[[User talk:Lilkaykaygal|Chat to me!]] 10:04, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

== Your Signature ==

Hey KayKay. I noticed something weird with your signature when you posted the welcome box on {{ut|ShadowKisses|this page here}}. You might want to check that out.--[[User:Jediknightdtv|JediKnight]][[User talk:Jediknightdtv|DTV]] 02:57, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
:Oh not again--[[User:Lilkaykaygal|KayKay]]|[[User talk:Lilkaykaygal|Chat to me!]] 02:58, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

== Trainer classes ==

Please don't copy and paste information from another article with out making some changes. Everything from the Backpacker class was used on the athletes' pages. Which is incorrect. They use more than one Pokémon. Also, you left Basketball Player on the Baseball and Tennis players' pages. And finally, if you copy Japanese text from another artcile, be sure to erase it. The Japanese text on all the pages you made said Backpacker.

On an unrelated note, don't create talk pages with forum like content like you did on {{tc|Kindergartner}}. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 06:58, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I saw that you are from Twinleaf Town and was wondering if you would like to be in my book I'm writing as a rival? You would use your Anime Team. Reply on my Talkpage. [[User:Loghomewill|Loghomewill]] 06:41, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

I know I'm not supposed to ask here, but I'll probably get a quick response: is the MarioWiki server down for you to? I keep getting "Problem loading page" when I try to access it.

'''Krabby''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クラブ''' ''Crab'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Kingler}} starting at [[level]] 28.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Krabby resembles the creature they are based on, the {{wp|crab}}. Krabby's top half is a {{a|Shell Armor|hard shell}} that is orange in color, with two protrusions atop it. The lower half of its body is cream-colored, with fang-like protrusions below the mouth; Krabby's legs are also cream-colored. Krabby has a pair of large pincers that it uses as powerful weapons, or for balance purposes when it walks sideways.

====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
If a Krabby loses a pincer in battle, it will completely grow back in a short period of time.

====Behavior====
On beaches where food is hard to come by, Krabby can be seen squabbling with each other over territory. When Krabby sense imminent danger, they will cloak themselves with bubbles from its mouth in an attempt at looking bigger and more intimidating.

===Habitat===
[[File:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Krabby live on beaches, burrowed inside holes dug into the sand. They are normally found in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]], but migrate to [[Sinnoh]] from time to time.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Krabby are known as scavengers and feed on whatever debris they happen upon in their environment. If food is too scarce, Krabby will also eats mouthfuls of sand to obtain nutrients.

Ash didn't use Krabby until ''[[EP075|Round One - Begin!]]''. After defeating an {{p|Exeggutor}} in its first battle, Krabby evolved into {{p|Kingler}}.

====Other====

==Trivia==
*In Pokémon Platinum, Krabby is the one of the few Pokémon not in the Sinnoh Pokédex, and not introduced in Generation IV, to have a new sprite. {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Muk}}, {{p|Oddish}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Ninetales}}, {{p|Primeape}}, and {{p|Registeel}} are the others.

===Origin===
It is based upon a {{wp|crab}}.

====Name origin====
Krabby's name is a misspelling of ''crabby'', which means grouchy or ill-tempered, but as it does not display these traits it may have simply been wordplay with the word "crab". Its Japanese name is simply ''crab''.

'''Wake Up Snorlax!''' (Japanese: '''おきろ！カビゴン！''' ''Wake up! {{tt|Kabigon|Snorlax}}!'') is the 41st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 23, 1998 and in the United States on October 28, 1998.

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==

{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} are heading for another town, with {{AP|Pikachu}} fast asleep. They run into a [[hippie]], who plays a song on his Poké Flute (which wakes up Pikachu). He then asks them for food, but they don't have any, so they continue on their way. Then the hippie says, "Oh, well. Another free concert." Shortly after, [[Team Rocket]] arrives, and are rude toward the hippie when he plays them a song and asks them for food. After they walk away, he mentions that they should learn to respect their elders.

Ash, Misty, and Brock reach the town, only to find that there is no food, as there are no ingredients for cooking any food. The mayor of the town gives them food and tells them that the village is unable to get any food because the river has dried up, killing all the produce. So, Ash and his friends head upstream to check it out. They run into thorns, and Misty gets cut by one of them. With the help of Ash's {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and its {{m|Razor Leaf}}, they get through the thorns to find that the flow of the river is being blocked by a {{p|Snorlax}}, which is very big and weighs close to 1000 pounds.

Ash, Misty, and Brock try to wake Snorlax up. Then, Team Rocket arrives. Team Rocket tries to steal Snorlax, which Ash and his friends try to help them with, as it will unblock the flow of the river. However, their attempt to steal Snorlax by attaching cables to their hot-air balloon doesn't work, so they decide to wake up Snorlax. After an alarm clock and a bucket of water prove unsuccessful, they decide to try the {{wp|Sleeping Beauty}} approach, and get a Pokémon to kiss Snorlax. Misty tries to have {{TP|Misty|Horsea}} kiss Snorlax, but {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} does instead. Team Rocket forces {{MTR}} to kiss Snorlax, but even this doesn't wake it up, even though Snorlax seemed to flinch when this happened.

Then Snorlax rolls over, revealing a card that tells them that only the beautiful music from a [[Poké Flute]] will awaken a Snorlax. They remember the hippie had a Pokémon flute, and run over to him to ask him to wake up Snorlax. However, Ash, Misty, and Brock get into an argument with Team Rocket, and eventually [[Jessie]] tries to attack with {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}, but a {{m|Gust}} attack from {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} sends them blasting off again.

Ash, Misty, and Brock take the hippie to Snorlax. As it turns out, the hippie owns the Snorlax. He wakes Snorlax up with his Poké flute, but the river is still blocked. The real source of the blockage is more thorns, but the thorns are Snorlax's favorite snack item, and it eats all the thorns, unplugging the river and saving the town.

After eating enough food, Snorlax goes back to sleep again. Team Rocket soon realizes that they won't be able to steal Snorlax, and then Snorlax rolls over on top of them.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Misty bleeding.png|right|thumb|The scene where Misty was shown bleeding.]]
*This episode was the first time that a main character ({{an|Misty}}) was seen bleeding. The next time this happened was in ''[[EP129|Ignorance is Blissey]]'', and after in ''[[DP053|Tears For Fears!]]'' where {{Ash}} was shown bleeding. {{p|Riolu}} is also shown bleeding in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.
*This is the first episode where two Pokémon are shown to be kissing each other: both {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} and {{MTR}} kissed {{p|Snorlax}} directly on its mouth.
*This is the one of the few episodes whose English title is simply the Japanese title, translated.

===Errors===

=== Dub edits ===
* When Misty was shocked that were wasn't any bread left in the town, there was originally Japanese text behind her. This background was replaced in the dub.
* The town was actually a village in the Japanese version.
* The messages on Snorlax's card originally said "Do not wake up." and "If you need me, please wake me up with a [[Poké Flute]]."
* The amount of food that Snorlax eats in one day was originally 400 kg (which rounds up to about 882 lbs), instead of 900 lbs like in the dub.

Its-a-me Pikachu!:

When was it confirmed that Aloe, Kidachi, and Aloe's Miruhog would appear in this episode? I know it was speculated but I don't recall it being confirmed?

Character of the day

2010-12-11T00:29:46Z

Its-a-me Pikachu!: The Hippie specifically said the Snorlax was his.

{{incomplete}}
A '''character of the day''', often abbreviated as a '''COD''' or '''CotD''', is a fan-made term given to a human (although sometimes Pokémon) character in the [[Pokémon anime]], who appears in only one episode and is relatively unimportant to the series. A character is often featured alongside his or her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}; usually that Pokémon is the subject of the episode in which it appears. Usually, at the end of most episodes where the character of the day is featured (if it's a friendly one), Ash or one of the other main characters promises to meet them again someday, though it usually never happens. Characters of the day can also be villains.

[[Image:Hippie.png|thumb|220px|The hippie playing the [[Poké Flute]]]]
The '''hippie''' is a [[character of the day]] in the [[Pokémon anime]]. His English voice actress is [[Maddie Blaustein]] and his Japanese voice actor is 大竹宏 ''Hiroshi Ohtake''. Since he was not given a name, this article will refer to him as the hippie.

The hippie's sole appearance was in ''[[EP041|Wake Up, Snorlax!]]''. While walking down a lonely road, the hippie played a [[Poké Flute]] for {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}}. They were grateful to the hippie and continued along their way. He also played for [[Team Rocket]] but they were less than impressed.

When Ash and the others discovered that the town's food wasn't growing because a {{p|Snorlax}} was blocking the water, they immediately ran to the hippie. He revealed that the Snorlax was his Pokémon. After hearing of the situation in the nearby town, the hippie played his Poké Flute, and Snorlax awakened.

The hippie is just a regular old man in the Japanese version.

Ash's hat

2010-11-27T00:19:33Z

Its-a-me Pikachu!: /* Pokémon League Expo hat */ Correct me if im wrong, but She only sent in one.

[[File:Ash without his hat BW.png|right|thumb|230px|{{Ash}} not wearing his hat]]
'''Ash's hat''' (Japanese: '''サトシのぼうし''' ''Satoshi's hat'') is the most important and famous item of clothing that [[Ash Ketchum]] is seldom seen without. Throughout the [[Pokémon anime]], Ash has worn four different hats so far, one each for the four different series. He is seen to turn his hat backwards whenever he concentrates on current situations.

==Pokémon League Expo hat==
[[File:Ash hat OS.png|thumb|left|Ash's first hat]]
[[File:Ash OS backwards hat.png|thumb|Ash wearing his Pokémon League Expo hat backwards]]
Ash's first hat was easily the most well-known of them: an official [[Pokémon League]] Expo hat that was red and white with a green "L" on the front, which Ash claimed to have "sent in about a million postcards" in order to obtain it. {{an|Misty}} seems to have tried to win it too, as she stated she sent in a single postcard too. Ash wore this hat throughout all of his journey through [[Kanto]], the [[Orange Archipelago]], and [[Johto]], and was very attached to it, becoming enraged when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole it and played keep-away with it in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]''.

Commonly, Ash would turn the cap backwards, especially when he was concentrating heavily, such as when he would face a {{pkmn|Trainer}} or capture a Pokémon. This was very much the case early in his journey in Kanto, though by the time his journey in Johto ended, he hardly ever turned his cap.
{{-}}

==''Advanced Generation'' hat==
[[File:Ash AG hat.png|thumb|left|Ash's Advanced Generation hat]]
[[File:Ash AG backwards hat.png|thumb|Ash wearing his AG hat backwards]]
After returning from Johto, Ash was given a change of clothes by [[Delia Ketchum|his mother]], and he immediately changed into them, including switching his old hat for a new, black and red one which had a green [[Poké Ball]] symbol on it. He seemed to have no hesitance in changing hats, despite the attraction shown in ''Primeape Goes Bananas''. It is assumed that he left the old hat at his home in [[Pallet Town]], where it may still be.

Like the first one, his second hat was also stolen by a monkey-like Pokémon which Ash later captured, this time [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong!]]''. In a surprising display of maturity, however, Ash did not climb any trees or scream at Aipom when his hat was stolen. Instead, he actually accepted that it was gone (or so he assumed), saying that he would "feel strange" without it. At the end of the episode, Aipom returned Ash's hat to him. However, Aipom followed Ash and his friends to the Kanto Grand Festival where it stole his hat again. After Ash captured her, Aipom stole Ash's hat multiple more times as the {{series|Advanced Generation}} ended and the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} began.

Ash rarely flipped his hat during the series, only doing so such as when he was dressed as an eggplant in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]'' or when he was cleaning the dojo in ''[[AG145|Pasta La Vista!]]''.
{{-}}
==''Diamond & Pearl'' hat==
[[File:Ash DP backwards hat.png|thumb|right|Ash wearing his DP hat backwards]]
[[File:Ash DP hat.png|thumb|left|Ash's Diamond & Pearl hat]]
Ash had received his DP hat in a package from his mother while in the [[Sinnoh]] region. Though his clothes changed quite a bit between their {{series2|Advanced Generation}} and {{series2|Diamond & Pearl}} iterations, his hat remained astoundingly similar, though while the AG hat had a green Poké Ball symbol, the DP one was blue. The DP hat also has more black area around the Poké Ball, being square while the black area in the AG series was oval-ish.

Ash flipped this hat just once in the whole series, in his battle against [[Takuto]] in [[DP189]].

[[Image:Hat_compare.png|thumb|right|A comparison of the similarities between Ash's hat from the original series (left) to the Best Wishes series (right)]]

In the {{series|Best Wishes}}, Ash wears a red and light blue hat. Unlike of the hats seen during the {{series2|Advanced Generation}} and {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, this hat bears more of a resemblance to the one seen in the {{series|original}}, but the front is light blue with no line running down the middle, and the logo is a blue [[Poké Ball]] design instead of a stylized "L".

During this series, Ash flips his hat more often, similar to the original series of the anime.
{{-}}
==Real world==
All of Ash's hats have been produced for people to wear. Ash's Advanced Generation hat was available to purchase at [[Pokémon Center (store)|PokémonCenter.com]] before it shut down. His hats can be found at numerous stores (including the Pokémon Centers in Japan) and on online auction sites such as {{wp|eBay}}.

'''Primeape''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オコリザル''' ''Okorizaru'') is a {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Mankey}} starting at [[level]] 28.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Primeape has a round body covered in whitish, messy fur. Primeape's ears are triangular with pink insides, its arms and legs are colored brown and the tail it had as a {{p|Mankey}} has dissappeared. Primeape has metal shackles on its wrists and ankles; this is probably indicative of a method of training with weights. The forepaws seem to resemble boxing gloves, alluding to its nature as a {{type2|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Primeape's abilities are similar to those of its pre-evolution, {{p|Mankey}}, only stronger. When Primeape becomes furious, its blood circulation is boosted. In turn, Primeape's muscles are made even stronger. However, it also becomes much less intelligent at the same time. Since Primeape is a fully evolved Pokémon, it is capable of using {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Primeape are easily angered. Even the slightest glance of eye contact will make it furious. If approached while asleep, it may awaken and angrily give chase in a groggy state of semi-sleep. A Primeape will chase anyone that makes it upset and won't give up until it catches it quarry.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Primeape can be found in vibrant forests or in mountains. [[Kanto]] is the best place to find them, although they can be found in [[Sinnoh]] as well.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
They seem to have an affinity with the [[Payapa Berry]], since they are sometimes found with it.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ash's Primeape.png|right|thumb|210px|{{AP|Primeape}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Primeape]]====
In ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', a Mankey steals [[Ash's hat]]. Later in the episode, thanks to Team Rocket, Mankey gets angry and evolves into a Primeape. {{AP|Ash's Charmander|Charizard}} battles the Primeape and Ash catches it.

In ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]'', Primeape is Ash's choice to fight in the [[P1 Grand Prix]]. In the end, Primeape ends up winning the competition, beating a [[Machop (Pokémon)|Machop]], a [[Hitmonchan (Pokémon)|Hitmonchan]], and a [[Hitmonlee (Pokémon)|Hitmonlee]].

====Other====
In ''[[EP233|A Tyrogue Full of Trouble]]'', a Primeape was causing problems for a small town along with a {{p|Mankey}} and a {{p|Tyrogue}}. A {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Kiyo]] was able to capture the Tyrogue, and the Mankey and Primeape joined up with him.

===Minor appearances===
''[[EP173|Wobbu-palooza]]'' featured a Primeape belonging to a [[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|Festival Crasher]].

[[Butch]] of [[Team Rocket]] has a Primeape.

==In the manga==
[[File:PrimapeSpecial.png|thumb|right|Primeape in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A Primeape is first seen as a wild Pokémon that [[Saur]] defeated, becoming an {{p|Ivysaur}} afterwards. This catches the attention of the looming con artist, {{adv|Green}}, starting a long-winded chain of events that lead to Red first losing his money to her charm, and then his badges.

In ''[[PS055|The Primeape Directive]]'', a herd of Mankey, led by a frustrated Primeape, attacked {{adv|Yellow}} and her temporary master, {{adv|Blue}}, whose [[Blue's Porygon2|Porygon]] defeated it. Yellow then empathies the poor Pokémon and has it leave peacefully to the wild.

Much later, [[Chuck]], Blue's own master, owns a Primeape, seen in {{PAV|10}} working out with him and his {{p|Poliwrath}}. Together with Poliwrath, it used {{m|DynamicPunch}} to reveal {{p|Suicune}}'s presence in the ocean off the {{ci|Cianwood}} coast, but the gym leader was defeated in the end, even after being joined by a [[Wayne|friend]].

==Trivia==
* It is capable of learning {{m|Iron Tail}} despite not having a visible tail. This may likely be due to the fact that its pre-evolution has one.
* Primeape can learn {{m|Scratch}} and {{m|Fury Swipes}} despite lacking any claws, however, it cannot learn {{m|Cut}}.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, Primeape is one of the few Pokémon not in the Sinnoh Pokédex, and not introduced in Generation IV, to have a new sprite. {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Oddish}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Ninetales}}, {{p|Muk}}, and {{p|Registeel}} are the others.
* Despite numerous Pokédex entries stating that it "beats up" foes, it is unable to learn the move {{m|Beat Up}} except by breeding.
===Origin===
Considering its pig-like nose, its coloring, and tendency to fly into a rage if eye contact is made, Primeape has much in common with {{wp|baboon}}s.
====Name origin====
Primeape's name may be a combination of ''prime'' and ''{{wp|ape}}''. It is also likely that its name is a play on the word ''{{wp|primate}}''. Its Japanese name can be taken to mean 怒り猿, angry monkey.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Rasaff - From ''rasend'' (raging) and ''Affe'' (monkey).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Colossinge - From ''colosse'' ({{wp|Colossus of Rhodes|colossus}}) and ''singe'' (monkey).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 성원숭 ''Seongwonsung'' - From ''seong'' (rage) and ''wonsungi'' (monkey).
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan and Hong Kong)]]: 火爆猴 ''Huǒ Bào Hóu'' - Literally "explosively angry monkey".

'''Pichu''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピチュー''' ''Pichu'') is an {{type2|Electric}} [[baby Pokémon]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pikachu}} via [[happiness]], who evolves into {{p|Raichu}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Thunderstone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pichu is a small ground-dwelling rodent. Its fur is very short, and it is pale yellow in color. The tips of its large ears are black, and it has additional black markings on its neck and tail. Its tail is short, but still bears some resemblance to the large lightning-bolt structure it will develop later on in life. It has pouches in its cheeks, which are pinkish colored and used for storing electricity. Its nose is extremely small, almost like a dot.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Pichu, like its evolutions, is capable of producing {{t|electric}}al sparks from its cheeks, charging itself with electricity more easily on days with thunderclouds or when the air is very dry. However, since Pichu is only a {{pkmn2|baby}}, it cannot control them as well, and may release electricity unintentionally. Fortunately, it is not able to store large amounts of electricity in its body.

Pichu, and its evolution family, {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Raichu}}, are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

===Behavior===
Pichu are social Pokémon known for their playfulness. They tend to be very mischievous and are always on the lookout for something fun to do. They are usually found in groups, typically with members of their own species, but occasionally with other types of Pokémon. Like its evolutions, it is capable of storing electricity from the atmosphere, however, this ability requires much practice to perfect. Pichu are prone to randomly discharging electricity, as they are not fully mature; however, they become better at holding power as they grow older. Pichu are frequently observed touching tails with each other, creating a shower of sparks. While most Pichu become distressed when they accidentally discharge sparks at another Pichu, this tail touching ritual seems to be some form of test for the young Pokémon. If more sparsely depicted, this tail-touching ritual may also be performed with its evolution, Pikachu, although it is advisable that if other Pokémon specie attempt to participate in this ritual that they are safeguarded against electrical shock, such as from being an Electric-type.

===Habitat===
[[File:Forest.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon}}]]
Pichu primarily live in forests like their evolution, Pikachu, although they have also been depicted to thrive in urban areas.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Pichu appear to be particularly fond of [[apple]]s.

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
====[[Pichu Brothers]]====
[[File:Pichu Brothers.png|250px|right|thumb|The [[Pichu Brothers]]]]
The Pichu Brothers are a pair of Pichu who have appeared in several places, including ''[[PK07|Pikachu & Pichu]]'', ''[[PK12|Camp Pikachu]]'', several episodes of [[Pokémon Chronicles]], and the [[Pokémon Channel]] special ''[[Pichu Bros. in Party Panic]]''. Their design is similar to [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Sparky]], in that one has a scruff of fur while the other does not.

====[[Spiky-eared Pichu]]====
[[File:Spikypichu.png|thumb|130px|The [[Spiky-eared Pichu]]]]
A Pichu with a spiked ear, known as Spiky-eared Pichu, appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. She helped {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} find the keys for the jail cell that held {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[Damos]]. She and a [[Shiny Pokémon|Pikachu-colored Pichu]] star in [[Get Fired up, Spiky-eared Pichu!|the fourth ending]] to the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.

====Other====
Pichu also appeared in ''[[EP179|The Apple Corp]]''. Many were stealing apples from {{an|Charmaine}}'s apple orchard.

A Pichu had a role in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'' Pichu's big brother, Pikachu, was lost and he was so worried, the Baby Electric Mouse went out to find him. Pichu came across Team Meanies, but they played a horrible trick on Pichu when asked to join them. Pichu found Team Go-Getters, who gladly let him come along with them. Pichu was eventually kidnapped by the {{p|Skarmory}} that had kidnapped Pikachu.

Another Pichu appeared in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]'' under the ownership of [[Sho]].

Ukulele Pichu appeared in the [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]] [[SS022|Anime Special]], and was captured by {{ra|Ben}} in the [[SS023|concluding part]].

A Pichu appeared in [[DP190]] with several other baby Pokémon. It was badly poisoned by a {{p|Tentacruel}}, but was healed by a {{m|Softboiled}} from [[Brock's Chansey]].

===Minor appearances===
A Pichu was used in the [[Kanto Grand Festival]] in ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]''

Three Pichu appear in ''[[DP084|Hungry For the Good Life!]]''.

A Pichu appeared on a girl's shoulder briefly in "[[M04|Celebi, Voice of the Forest]]" in a window during Ash's battle at the beginning of the movie.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Johto}}
{{Animedexbody|EP179|Pichu|Ash's Pokédex|Pichu, the Tiny Mouse Pokémon. A [[Baby Pokémon|pre-evolved]] form of {{p|Pikachu}}. Despite their size, Pichu release {{m|ThunderShock|bursts of electricity}} that can shock even humans. However, Pichu are unskilled at controlling their electricity, and sometimes release it by accident when surprised, or when laughing and shock themselves.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
{{adv|Gold}}, in his desperation, protected an egg containing the offspring of {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]] and {{adv|Yellow}}'s [[Chuchu]] from the [[Masked Man]]. Soon thereafter, Gold's own talent as the "hatcher" allowed a powerful [[Gold (Adventures)#Pichu|Pichu]] to hatch, with which he was able to defeat the villain and free {{p|Celebi}} from the [[GS Ball]] using {{p|Raikou}}'s massive electrical power. It also returned with its parents to help destroy [[Guile Hideout]]'s giant {{p|Kyogre}} monster with a {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Pichu is a playable character. It can be unlocked by beating event 37 (Legendary Pokémon) or playing 200 matches in VS. mode. As it is very light and electric attacks do damage to itself as well as others, Pichu is considered to be a handicap character. It is often considered to be the weakest character in the game, though its attacks are slightly more powerful than Pikachu's.

{{SmashMoves|type=Electric|game=Melee|Spe=Thunder Jolt|SpeS=Skull Bash|SpeSM=yes|SpeU=Agility|SpeUM=yes|SpeD=Thunder|SpeDM=yes}}

====Trophy information====
=====Classic Mode=====
A Tiny Mouse Pokémon identifiable by its big ears, Pichu evolves into {{p|Pikachu}}. It's not very skilled at storing up electrical energy and will sometimes discharge it if jarred. Although it's small, it has enough electrical power to give even an adult quite a shock. It's often startled by its own power.

=====Adventure Mode=====
Compared with Pikachu, Pichu is a tad more nimble and a little more difficult to hit. Those are the only two advantages, however, and since Pichu damages itself when it uses electrical attacks, it's best suited for handicapped matches. Even though Pichu's tough to catch, it's easy to throw its tiny frame great distances.

=====All-Star Mode=====
Pichu is the lightest character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and it's top of the class in weakness, too! For Pichu, it's all about scampering here and there to pick up items that will help it survive. The first warp in Agility causes 1 point of damage to Pichu, and the second causes 3, so try to limit the number of times you use the move.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
The sequel downgraded Pichu to just appearing as a trophy. In order to obtain it, one must complete All-Star mode without using a continue.
====Trophy information====
A Tiny Mouse Pokémon. Because its electric cheek pouches are still small, it cannot store electricity yet. Pichu has been known to flaunt its courage by touching tails with others and setting off sparks. It is easier for Pichu to build up electricity when the humidity is lower. Pichu will evolve into Pikachu.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
[[File:Shiny Pichu HGSS event.png|[[Spiky-eared Pichu]] at the [[Ilex Forest shrine]]|thumb|right]]
*[[Pokémon Stadium 2]]: Pichu stars in the mini-game "Pichu's Powerplant." Similar to {{p|Pikachu}}'s and {{p|Voltorb}}'s mini-game, "Thundering Dynamo", in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, the player has to be the first to charge up the most electrical power in order to win.
*[[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire]]: Pichu will assist Pikachu on Ball-Saver duty for 50 coins or as a prize in the slot machine.
*{{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}: The [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] will appear at the [[Ilex Forest shrine]] if the player approaches it with the [[Pikachu-colored Pichu]] first in the party (It should be noted that the event will still activate if the Pikachu-colored Pichu were to evolve.) She will be automatically caught, and cannot be traded outside of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} or evolve.
*[[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]]: Ukulele Pichu is the player's partner. This Pichu plays the {{wp|ukulele}} and has a special musical [[Poké Assist]].

==Trivia==
* Pichu is game director [[Junichi Masuda]]'s favorite Pokémon.<ref>http://www.gamepro.com/article/previews/209340/pokemon-platinum-developer-interview-pt-2/</ref>
* Pichu is the first [[baby Pokémon]] in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]] listing.
* Pichu is the only [[Generation II]] Pokémon to be playable in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] (although many others have appeared from [[Poké Ball]]s). Like in the anime, it hurts itself when using electrical attacks.
* Pichu is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 205 that is not based on a cocoon.
* Together with {{p|Seedot}}, {{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Magikarp}}, Pichu is the easiest Pokémon to catch in {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, with only one loop necessary.
* Pichu's [[Generation II]] back sprite depicts its entire body. This is rare for a Pokémon that does not {{a|Levitate}}. It shares this trait with {{p|Togepi}}.
* Due to it being distributed via [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] for European and North American games, the Pikachu-colored Pichu, a {{shiny}} Pichu, was the first Pokémon to be given out over Wi-Fi Connection outside Japan.
**{{p|Jirachi}} has this honor for the Japanese games, as well as overall.
* Despite being able to learn {{m|ThunderPunch}} through breeding, it can't learn it via [[move tutor]].
* Pichu is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] to be a pre-evolution of a Pokémon from a [[Generation I|previous generation]].
* According to the Ruby Version Pokédex entry, one may hear the crackling of static electricity coming off of Pichu; however, this is a somewhat dubious claim as, presumably, for the static to be audible it would have to hold more electricity than it most likely seems able to.
* While media suggests that Pichu can't store electricity, Pichu can oddly learn and use the move {{m|Charge}} with absolutely no repercussions.

===Origin===
Pichu draws inspiration from {{wp|mice}}, {{wp|squirrel}}s, and various other {{wp|rodent}}s.

====Name origin====
Pichu's name is a shortening of the name ''{{p|Pikachu}}'' to indicate that it is less than Pikachu. Its name, like Pikachu's, is a combination of ピカピカ ''pikapika'', which is Japanese onomatopoeia for sparkle, and チューチュー ''chūchū'', which is the sound of squeaking.

==In other languages==
* [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Pichu
* [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Pichu
* [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 피츄 ''Pichyu''
* [[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 皮丘 ''Pí Qiū'' - Transliteration of its Japanese name.
* [[List of Spanish Pokémon names|Spanish]]: Pichu

{{StrategyWiki|Pokémon Stadium}}
'''Pokémon Stadium''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンスタジアム２''' ''Pokémon Stadium 2'') is a [[Nintendo 64]] game that allows players to upload and battle their Pokémon from the [[Generation I|first generation]] Pokémon games, [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Blue]], {{v2|Yellow}}, and [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Green]] in Japan. It features several battle arenas, introducing [[Stadium Mode]]'s original four cups, the [[Pika Cup]], [[Petit Cup]], [[Poké Cup]], and [[Prime Cup]], the latter two of which would return in [[Pokémon Stadium 2|the sequel]], and the original [[Gym Leader Castle]]. It also features new Pokémon [[cry|cries]], a feature that was carried on in the sequel for Pokémon from Generation II.

This game is the sequel to the [[Pokémon Stadium (Japanese)|mostly incomplete original]], which was never released anywhere but Japan.

==Game modes==
===Free battle===
An open battle mode where players can battle with each other or the CPU with their favorite Pokémon. Players can use the Stadium rulesets (plus their available rentals), or choose "Anything Goes" for only the basic rules with no level limit.

Exclusive to Anything Goes is the ability to bring any number of Pokémon from one to six into battle, and play team matches with 3 or 4 players. When two players are on a given side, each selects up to 3 Pokémon to control.

[[File:Stadium Intro.png|right|thumb|Stadium Title Screen]]
===Stadium===
{{main|Stadium Mode}}
This is the main game mode. There are four different cup rules to win; [[Pika Cup]], [[Petit Cup]], [[Poké Cup]], and [[Prime Cup]]. In the latter two, there are four levels of difficulty; Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball and Master Ball.

===Gym Leader Castle===
{{main|Gym Leader Castle}}
In this mode, the goal is to climb to the castle's top by facing in order all 8 of the Gym Leaders from [[Kanto]], followed by the [[Elite Four|Elite 4]] and finally [[Blue (game)|the player's rival]]. Each of the Gym Leaders has 3 apprentices that the player must first defeat in order to battle the Leader themselves.

When the rival is finally defeated, the player will be rewarded one of the following 8 Pokémon at random; each of them uncommon in [[Generation I]] and usually only available once in a particular Game Boy game without [[Trade|trading]], and each at level 20:
* {{p|Bulbasaur}}
* {{p|Charmander}}
* {{p|Squirtle}}
* {{p|Hitmonlee}}
* {{p|Hitmonchan}}
* {{p|Eevee}}
* {{p|Omanyte}}
* {{p|Kabuto}}

===Battle Now===
In this mode, the player can play a battle without having to select [[Pokémon]]. Rather, the Pokémon are randomly selected, and the player must fight with three of them.

===Vs. Mewtwo===
Once the player has completed the [[Stadium Mode]] and [[Gym Leader Castle]], {{p|Mewtwo}}'s silhouette will appear in the sky over the Stadium for selection. This is simply a showdown against Mewtwo itself, under essentially Anything Goes rules: up to six Pokémon (the player's own or Prime Cup rentals) can brought to the battle, but Mewtwo is the only opponent and is level 100. It knows {{m|Psychic}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Blizzard}}, and {{m|Rest}}.

Defeating Mewtwo launches the credits, changes the title screen and unlocks Round 2. Re-unlocking and defeating Mewtwo in Round 2 (where its stats are increased and Blizzard is switched for {{m|Amnesia}}) awards another new title screen and special hidden stickers available in the Gallery mode.

===Kids' Club===
This park houses 9 different mini-games for One to Four players. They can be played freely or in a "Who's the Champion?" mode where the first player to accumulate a certain number of wins is declared the champ. Any slots not used by players will be filled in by the computer, with Easy, Normal and Hard difficulty levels available. The secret Hyper difficulty can be unlocked by winning a Champion match on Hard.

* '''Clefairy Says:''' A {{p|Clefairy}} teacher will write increasingly tricky arrow patterns on a chalkboard. They must be repeated back. Last player standing wins. '''Controls:''' Control Pad to repeat the pattern.

* '''Dig! Dig! Dig!:''' As {{p|Sandshrew}}, players need to dig to the underground well before the others. '''Controls:''' Tap L and R alternatively to dig.

* '''Ekans Hoop Hurl:''' In 60 seconds, players must toss as many {{p|Ekans}} around as many {{p|Diglett}} as they can. Gold Diglett are worth extra points. '''Controls:''' Control Pad Left/Right to aim and Up/Down to adjust the angle, Control Stick Down to throw.

* '''Magikarp Splash:''' {{p|Magikarp}} must {{m|Splash}} high enough to hit the button at the top of the screen as many times as it can. '''Controls:''' A to Splash/Jump.

* '''Rock Harden:''' As either {{p|Metapod}} or {{p|Kakuna}}, players must use {{m|Harden}} at the right time to avoid taking damage from the incoming rocks. Using Harden also depletes stamina as well so it must be used carefully. Last player standing wins. '''Controls:''' A to Harden.

* '''Run, Rattata, Run:''' {{p|Rattata}} needs to avoid obstacles as it runs on a treadmill to reach the finish line. '''Controls:''' A (repeatedly) to run, Control Pad Up to jump.

* '''Snore War:''' {{p|Drowzee}} must use {{m|Hypnosis}} when the pendulum hits the center of its' swing to put the other Drowzee to sleep. Last one left awake wins. '''Controls:''' A for Hypnosis.

* '''Sushi-Go-Round:''' {{p|Lickitung}} must eat as many foods as it can from the circular table of rotating plates, so as to run up a high bill. There are several types of food, each worth a different price; certain foods are spicier than others, which can slow Lickitung down. The player that racks up the most expensive bill when time is up wins. '''Controls:''' Control Stick to Move, A to [[Lick (move)|eat]].

* '''Thundering Dynamo:''' As either {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Voltorb}}, players need to press the button corresponding to the lightbulb's color to charge up electricity. The player who is fully charged first wins. '''Controls:''' Mash A or B to charge.

===Gallery===
This feature, which only exists in the American version of the game, is used to take pictures of Pokémon from a Red, Blue, or Yellow cartridge inserted into the [[Transfer Pak]] or any rental Pokémon. Any of the game's arenas can be selected for a backdrop and the photos are stored in an in-game album. These pictures can be printed out as stickers (in 16x1 or 4x4 sizes) via the same Sticker Station that was used for [[Pokémon Snap]].

===Oak's Lab===
This can only be used if the player has a copy of Pokémon Red, Blue or Yellow inserted into a Transfer Pak (although this may cause Mew to be lost from the PC). Here, the player can access boxes to organize and store Pokémon and items, trade Pokémon between game cartridges, and accept prize Pokémon won elsewhere in the game.

===[[Game Boy Tower|GB Tower]]===
This is used to play an emulated version of {{game3|Red and Blue|Red, Blue|s}}, or {{v2|Yellow}} on the Nintendo 64. Different borders can be applied, some exclusive to particular versions. In addition, a {{p|Doduo}} Game Boy Tower can be unlocked by completing either the Poké Cup or Prime Cup in Round 1, which allows the game to be played at double the speed. A {{p|Dodrio}} Game Boy Tower can also be unlocked by beating both the Poké Cup and Prime Cup in Round 1, allowing the game to be played at quadruple speed.

===Hall of Fame===
When the player clears the final division of a [[Stadium Cup]] or defeats the Rival in the Gym Leader Castle, all of the Pokémon on the player's team will be registered in the Hall of Fame.

==Round 2==
When the Vs. Mewtwo battle is cleared, Round 2 can be toggled on and off by pressing C-Right on the main menu. Round 2 challenges the player to battle through the game all over again, against the same opponents with different Pokémon and a much higher difficulty. {{p|Mew}} can also be rented in the Prime Cup. The surrounding Stadium area in Round 2 is set at night.

==Trainer Class Changes==
As there is a seven-letter limit for trainer names, some [[Trainer class|trainer classes]] go by different names.

==Special Pokémon==
Two Pokémon with unique moves can be obtained and transferred to any [[Generation I]] game.

===Amnesia Psyduck===
This Pokémon is obtained by registering all 151 Pokémon in the Hall of Fame.

===Surf Pikachu===
In order to obtain a Surf Pikachu, the Master Ball division of the Round 2 [[Prime Cup]] must be cleared with the following restrictions: <ref> [http://www.math.miami.edu/~jam/azure/pokedex/species/025.htm Surf Pikachu requirements] </ref> <ref> [http://www.math.miami.edu/~jam/azure/forum/tuff/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=000645 Research topic for Surf Pikachu requirements] </ref>
*All of the Pokémon must be selected directly from a Game Pak. The Pikachu can come from any [[Generation I]] game.
*Continues may be used, but the game cannot be saved.
*Pikachu only has to be selected for the final battle and does not have to take part in the battle.

All of [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Raichu}} know Surf.

==Trivia==
* Pokémon cries have a much more realistic sound in this game. However, the only one to actually say its name like in the {{pkmn|anime}} is the {{p|Pikachu}} from {{game|Yellow}}. This is likely because not all Pokémon were given a voice in the anime yet.
** This concept was carried over to [[Pokémon Stadium 2]].
* This was the first home console game to have all Pokémon in its generation able to be used in battle.
* Nicknamed Pokémon have slightly altered colourations when used in battle. As a result, most NPC trainers use nicknamed Pokémon to emphasize the effect. This makes one of the few situations where NPCs have nicknamed Pokémon.
* Rocket's Pokémon have numbers in their nicknames, even though this was not possible until [[Generation III]]. The same applies for [[Rocket Grunts]] in the sequel.
