'''Crasher Wake''' (Japanese: '''マキシマム{{tt|仮面|かめん}}''' ''Maximum Mask''), otherwise known simply as '''Wake''' (Japanese: '''マキシ''' ''Maxi''), is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pastoria City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Pastoria Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Fen}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Crasher Wake uses {{type|Water}} Pokémon in his battles. Trainers receive the {{Badge|Fen}}, {{TM|55|Brine}} and are able to use {{m|Defog}} outside of battle. In addition, in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, if he is the fourth Gym Leader defeated, all Pokémon up to level 50 will obey their Trainer. Wake has a jovial, enthusiastic, and bombastic personality. Wake's strategy is nothing more than choosing moves that will make his battles more fun, and encourages everyone to not take battles too seriously, and to remember they're supposed to be fun. Crasher Wake uses the prize money he gets from competitive Pokémon battles to help the unfortunate. Crasher Wake has his Pokémon use {{m|Defog}} to keep the weather of Pastoria City clear.

He later appears in the [[Battle Zone]], talking to the player's [[rival]], {{ga|Barry}}. The rival also mentions that Wake was born overseas. However, he speaks clearly, without any foreign accent. In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, Crasher Wake reveals that he was born and raised in the Sinnoh region, even though everyone thinks otherwise.

In {{v|Platinum}}, he is first met when players try to enter [[Veilstone Gym]]. In Pastoria City, he sings his own theme song, and the {{ga|Barry|rival}} wants him to be his mentor (much to his dismay). Wake also acts when a Galactic Bomb goes off at the [[Great Marsh]]. On [[Stark Mountain]], he mentions that he'll be entering a tournament. Wake can also be battled again, like the other Sinnoh Gym Leaders, at the [[Battleground]]. His wrestling matches will occasionally be shown on the TV as part of the {{DL|Jubilife TV|Pokémon Variety Hour}}, which he always wins.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, he appears in the [[Celadon Department Store]] to give the player some Sinnoh {{pkmn2|starter}} accessories. He can be found again later, on {{rt|47|Johto}}.

In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, he appears on {{rt|18|Unova}} staring out into the ocean. Once the player talks to him, he decides to head to [[Driftveil City]] and takes his leave.

Crasher Wake debuted in ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]'', where he met {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}}, and {{an|Brock}} in front of his Gym, but said that he couldn't battle that day because he was going to be one of the judges of the [[Pastoria Croagunk Festival]]. After the festival, Wake said that [[Ash's Pikachu]] seemed to be a strong Pokémon, and said he would be happy to battle him the next day.

In ''[[DP083|A Crasher Course in Power!]]'', Ash defeated Crasher Wake without losing a single Pokémon and earned the Fen Badge.

He also reappeared briefly in flashbacks in [[DP120]] and ''[[DP178|For the Love of Meowth!]]''.

Quagsire next went up against {{AP|Buizel}} and although Quagsire was able to absorb {{p|Buizel}}'s {{m|SonicBoom}}s with its bulky body, it was knocked out by the sheer force of [[Moves not in the Pokémon games|Ice Aqua Jet]].

|desc={{p|Floatzel}} is Crasher Wake's main Pokémon. He was introduced right after [[Ash's Buizel]] got into a fight with {{AP|Pikachu}}. Upon seeing his evolved form, Buizel became hyped up for battle and a chance to prove himself to Ash.

Floatzel seems to know many different defensive techniques to guard himself from attacks such as inflating the flotation sac around his body and blocking with his fin. He also knows a variety of different and powerful moves. Crasher Wake claimed that {{p|Floatzel}} is powerful enough to endure even a {{m|Giga Impact}} by using his flotation sac. At one point he used his flotation sac to reflect Buizel's {{m|Water Pulse}} back at him, confusing him. Later in the battle he used Ice Fang to freeze part of Pikachu's back. Despite all this, he lost to Buizel after Buizel fired a Water Pulse attack at him which sent him crashing into the ceiling and getting knocked out.

He also reappeared briefly in flashbacks in [[DP120]], ''[[DP178|For The Love Of Meowth]]'', and ''[[DP180|League Unleashed!]]''.

Floatzel also appeared alongside Wake during the credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

Floatzel's known moves are {{m|Razor Wind}}, {{m|Bulk Up}}, {{m|Whirlpool}}, and {{m|Ice Fang}}.}}

[[File:Crasher Wake unmasked Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Crasher Wake without his mask]]
Crasher Wake is introduced in ''[[PS364|A Skuffle with Skorupi]]''. {{adv|Platinum}} begins to battle him for the {{Badge|Fen}} in ''[[PS365|Crafty Carnivine]]''; their battle concludes in ''[[PS366|Floatzel and Jetsam]]'', during which [[Platinum's Empoleon]] is able to defeat his Floatzel, only to lose to Quagsire. Afterwards, the [[Tru|Torterra]] she borrowed from {{adv|Diamond}} defeats the second Pokémon with its {{m|Giga Drain}} when Wake concluded Platinum drowned, only to rise back up from the other side and counterattack. Afterwards, he is impressed by Platinum's adaptability and awards her the Fen Badge.

Later, he reappears in [[Lake Valor]] to save [[Rad Rickshaw]] and {{adv|Pearl}} after the Galactic Bomb's explosion dried the lake, and [[Saturn]] defeated the latter. He then had his {{p|Quagsire}} and {{p|Floatzel}} to refill the lake using {{m|Rain Dance}}. Soon, after the boy recovers, Wake coaches him to catch a Floatzel much like his own (after noting that he wouldn't give him ''his''), but when he proves unable, instead tells Pearl to try his luck with the weaker {{p|Buizel}}, which he succeeds in. However, having grown intensely distrustful of humans after the incident, it turned out very disobedient, prone to often attack its owner rather than fight for him.

Like in the games, he pays for the facilities and maintenance of [[Pastoria City]] with the prize money he earns.

Following an extremely fast chase, Empoleon was able to hit Floatzel with her {{m|Vacuum Wave}}, sending it to fly away, knocking it out.

It later appeared with Quagsire in ''[[PS400|Bogging Down Quagsire]]'', where both used Rain Dance to fill up the dried-up [[Lake Valor]].

After what looked a silent and dull battle, Quagsire showed its skills as a wrestler, taking the Torterra (and lifting it, despite its height and weight) and threw him to the water. However, what it didn't notice (and was ready knock Torterra with a Blizzard) was that Platinum had her [[Great Marsh]] overalls attached to Tru's spikes, and therefore was thrown too. Upon noticing it, Wake send his {{tc|Sailor}}s to rescue her, but just the overalls was underwater. With this, the Water Fish Pokémon didn't shoot the Blizzard and was finished off with a {{m|Giga Drain}}.

Quagsire later appeared with Floatzel in ''[[PS400|Bogging Down Quagsire]]'', where both used Rain Dance to fill up the dried-up [[Lake Valor]].

==Trivia==
* His Japanese Leader title is {{tt|ウォーター　ストリーム　マスクマン|Water Stream Maskman}}.
* Crasher Wake's use of his prize money to help the disadvantaged is a common cliché in tales of fictional luchadores, inspired by the real-life luchador {{wp|Fray Tormenta}}.
* Crasher Wake is a {{type|Water}} trainer with a {{wp|Wrestling|pastime involving fighting}}, in comparison with [[Brawly]], a {{type|Fighting}} trainer with a {{wp|Surfing|pastime involving water}}.
* Despite the game claiming that he uses {{m|Defog}} for Pastoria City, none of the Pokémon he uses in battle can learn it. Though it is possible he has a Pokémon capable of using it he doesn't use in battle, he would not be the only Gym Leader to do so if this was the case, as Fantina has a Drifblim she only uses in Contests and not battles.
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being fourth, Crasher Wake is now fifth in the line-up.
* Crasher Wake is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader whom Ash defeated without losing any of his own Pokémon during the match.
* Crasher Wake is the only Gym Leader who doesn't present himself with his real name, but rather his stage name.
* In the anime, like some of the characters in the [[Diamond & Pearl series]], he has a catchphrase he uses when calling out a Pokémon. His catchphrase is ''On the water''.

'''Ash's Noivern''' (Japanese: '''サトシのオンバーン''' ''Satoshi's Onvern'') is the fifth {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{Ash}} caught in the [[Kalos]] region.

==History==
[[File:Ash Noibat Egg.png|left|200px|thumb|Noibat's {{pkmn|Egg}}]]
In ''[[XY076|A Not-So-Flying Start!]]'', Noibat was in his {{pkmn|Egg}} when he was first found by {{AP|Hawlucha}}, who was doing training exercises. The Wrestling Pokémon brought the Egg back to {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, where he was about to hatch. In response, Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Fletchinder}}, Hawlucha, {{an|Bonnie}}, {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}, {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} and {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}} covered the Egg to keep it warm whilst it hatched, with Fletchinder using its {{a|Flame Body}} Ability to help.

When he hatched, Noibat first saw Ash and was introduced to him and his Pokémon. Noibat was very stressed out, so he let out a powerful {{m|Supersonic}} attack, hurting everyone's ears. He was eventually calmed down by Ash. Afterwards, the group found apples for him with Noibat using his ultrasonic waves to sense the apples' taste. Noibat then attempted to fly, but failed, causing him to launch another Supersonic until he was calmed down by Ash again. The group decided to help teaching Noibat how to fly with Hawlucha and Fletchinder aiding him. Despite Noibat improving, he was still unable to fly. Whilst training with Hawlucha and Fletchinder, {{TRT}} appeared and fired a net at Noibat whom they wanted to evolve into a {{p|Noivern}}. In the process of the kidnapping, they also captured Hawlucha, who attempted to protect him.

[[File:Ash Noibat.png|thumb|250px|As a Noibat]]
The two {{type|Flying}}s were then tied up to a tree. Noibat tried to use Supersonic on them, but failed due to Team Rocket's soundproof earphones. Hawlucha managed to cut the rope using his nails and tried to sneak away along with Noibat, but they were soon spotted by Team Rocket. Hawlucha successfully escaped with Noibat, after attacking {{TP|James|Inkay}} with {{m|High Jump Kick}}, and knocking it down together with {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}}. As they were still being pursued by the trio, Noibat spotted a cave and told Hawlucha to hide in there. Inside the pitch black cave, [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} tried to capture them and lure them into a trap set by Inkay and Pumpkaboo. Noibat uses {{wp|animal echolocation|echolocation}} to sense the trio and had Hawlucha kick off their soundproof headphones, which allowed Noibat to use Supersonic, causing Team Rocket to flee. After Ash appeared and defeated Team Rocket with {{AP|Frogadier}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}, the two Flying-types left the cave. Afterwards, Noibat accepted Ash's offer to go with him and allowed himself to be captured in a [[Poké Ball]]. He was then let out, allowing him to train with Hawlucha and Fletchinder again.

In ''[[XY077|A Relay in the Sky!]]'', he continued to train how to fly along with Fletchinder and Hawlucha, Noibat struggled at tackling high winds, but Hawlucha taught Noibat how to deal with it. Afterwards the group noticed a {{p|Starly}}, {{p|Staravia}} and {{p|Staraptor}}. They went to the source of this, the [[Pokémon Sky Relay]], where they discovered that the birds came from the Sky Relay Champion, [[Orson]]. Later Ash used Fletchinder, Hawlucha and Noibat in the relay. Ash used Noibat in the last segment of the race. He started out in first place, but Starly was right behind him and had the advantage since Noibat hadn't fully mastered flying yet. Although he remained in first place initially, he encountered high winds, which Noibat struggled with. Starly used this to its advantage to pass Noibat and gain first place. After remembering his training with Hawlucha and everyone's support, he managed to overcome this and managed to get neck-to-neck with Starly. He eventually ended up second after barely losing to Starly, and was disappointed at first, but found that he had made his friends happy by learning to fly.

[[File:Ash and Noibat.png|thumb|250px|As a Noibat, with Ash]]
In ''[[XY101|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Noibat was used to navigate through Terminus Cave, using echolocation in conjunction with {{an|Clemont}}'s searchlight, {{TP|Serena|Braixen}}'s fire, and {{TP|Clemont|Luxray}}'s X-ray sight. During the group battle against [[Team Flare]], Noibat stunned [[Celosia]]'s {{p|Drapion}} with Supersonic and knocked it back with his newly revealed {{m|Tackle}} attack, but was then hit by {{p|Bisharp}}'s {{m|Iron Head}}.

In ''[[XY103|A Windswept Encounter!]]'' while Noibat was flying around as the group settled down for a rest, he accidentally rammed into a {{p|Breloom}} while the Mushroom Pokémon was admiring the flowers he was planning to give to an orange flowered {{p|Floette}} to proclaim his love. As Noibat tried to apologize for crushing the flowers, the Breloom attacked him in rage first by using {{m|Poison Powder}}, then striking him down with his claw. When Floette passed by, she healed Noibat's condition using {{m|Aromatherapy}} and became friends with him. As Noibat flew around with her on his back, the offending Breloom became heartbroken and furious, leading him to threaten Noibat with his {{p|Beedrill}} entourage to separate Floette from him. Noibat defended Floette by trying to fight Breloom one on one, but was beaten down. Pikachu wished to interfere to help, but Hawlucha prevented him from doing so and Ash explained that Noibat wanted to prove his worth as a full-fledged fighter. Noibat eventually manages to hit Breloom with a Tackle attack, but was still about to lose. Before Breloom finished Noibat off, Floette saved him, but was then kidnapped by Team Rocket along with Breloom. Noibat used echolocation to search for their location after {{an|Clemont}}'s machine failed, and found them quickly. After repeatedly trying to break the cage that held Breloom and Floette hostage with Tackle, he learned {{m|Acrobatics}} and successfully broke it. He then used the move again to defeat James's Inkay, making Team Rocket blast off.

In [[XY109]], Ash used Noibat to navigate through a cave as Ash needed to calm a {{p|Zapdos}} down to end the thunderstorm it was causing. Afterwards Noibat witnessed Talonflame's and Hawlucha's battles against Zapdos. Although both of them were able to hold their own, Zapdos was able to defeat Talonflame because of its Type advantage and likewise blasted Hawlucha off a cliff. Seeing Hawlucha falling down the ravine, Noibat flew to him as fast as possible, eventually evolving into a Noivern for extra speed. After succesfully saving Hawlucha, Noivern fought off Zapdos. With its newly gained speed and power it was able to dodge Zapdos' attacks and it attacked with its newly learned {{m|Boomburst}}, although Zapdos dodged that as well. At Ash's command, Noivern engaged with Zapdos in a high-speed aerial duel and eventually managed to hide behind the cliffs, taking Zapdos by surprise with its powerful Boomburst and blasting it into a local mountain range. As Noivern had gained the upper hand, Team Rocket jumped in and tried to capture the weakened Zapdos, but Noivern and Pikachu sent them blasting off. Zapdos, having calmed down and respecting Noivern's power, made the thunderstorm disappear.

==Personality and characteristics==
After hatching, he quickly imprinted on Ash, presumably because he is who Noivern first saw. He was also impressed by Hawlucha's abilities in his debut. As a newborn Pokémon, he struggled to fly and was upset when he failed. When stressed or upset, he lets out a powerful {{m|Supersonic}} attack. In ''[[XY077|A Relay in the Sky!]]'', he did the same when he was happy. Like all Noivern, he has an affinity toward fruit, but can be a picky eater as he refused to eat apples which he thought were bad.

As a Noibat, it had the ability to use ultrasonic waves, which he first used in ''[[XY076|A Not-So-Flying Start!]]'' to tell if a fruit was bad or good. He later used {{wp|animal echolocation|echolocation}} to spot Team Rocket in pitch darkness, allowing Hawlucha to attack them without being seen.

Noivern is shown to have a very parent-child like relationship with Ash. As such, Noivern is able to be calmed down easily by Ash, and very much enjoys being around him. He also has a close relationship with Hawlucha and Talonflame, since they helped Noibat learn how to fly and seems to enjoy being with them. Noivern also seems to take after Ash, acting very similarly to him, and seems to take inspiration from him. When in the Pokémon Sky Relay race, Noivern was determined to win and managed to come second place due to Ash's encouragement. Much like {{AP|Gliscor}}, Noivern seems to want Ash's approval and is upset when he is denied a chance to prove himself, as shown when he was very upset at narrowly losing the Pokémon Sky Relay. Once Ash gave Noivern the praise he desired, he quickly cheered up.

During the events of ''[[XY103|A Windswept Encounter!]]'', Noivern wished to prove himself as a full-fledged battler in his own right, and both Ash and Hawlucha understood this and refused to let Pikachu interfere with his battle, even though his opponent had the upper hand.

'''Houndoom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヘルガー''' ''Hellgar'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Fire}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Houndour}} starting at [[level]] 24. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Houndoom''' using the {{DL|Mega Stone|Houndoominite}}.

==Biology==
Houndoom is a quadruped, canine Pokémon that is mainly black with a long orange snout and an orange underbelly. It has small, red eyes and a black nose. Around its neck is a white band with a small skull-shaped pendant on its throat. There are two white bands on each of its ankles, as well as three rib-like ridges on its back. Houndoom has a long, skinny tail with a triangular tip and three clawed toes on each paw. On top of its head is a pair of long, curved gray horns. These horns are smaller on the female than the male.

As Mega Houndoom, the ridges on its back thicken, and it gains additional, bone-like rings around the base of its tail. The rings on its tail have small spikes on top, causing them to resemble vertebrae. The ridge at the base of Mega Houndoom's neck is longer and curves forward towards its shoulders. Instead of a band with a skull pendant, there is a large, toothed structure around its neck. This bone-like formation has two large spikes on either side and three pointed teeth on the bottom. Mega Houndoom's horns now point straight up with a small, outward curve in the middle. The two bands on its hind legs have vanished, and those on its forelegs are broken in the front. Its claws are a dark red due to its ability to generate more heat.<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Houndoom</ref> Finally, the tip of its tail is now split down the middle.

In a Houndoom pack, the one with its horns raked sharply towards the back serves a leadership role. Leadership is determined by fights within the pack. Its gut is full of toxins, which are used to create fire. This gives Houndoom's fire a foul odor and the wounds it inflicts will never heal. Houndoom appears near {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|volcanic areas}}. Its howling induces shivering in other Pokémon, and often sends them scurrying back to their nests.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Houndoom and its {{p|Houndour|pre-evolution}}.
* Houndoom has three different sprites in each [[Generation II]] game. It also shares this same trait in [[Generation IV]] games. This makes it one of the few Pokémon with this distinction.
* Mega Houndoom has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} of all non-legendary {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Houndoom may have been based on the {{wp|Cerberus}} of {{wp|Greek mythology|Greek}} and {{wp|Roman mythology}}, or other {{wp|black dog (ghost)|legends}} of {{wp|hellhound}}s. Houndoom is also similar in appearance to {{wp|Doberman Pinscher|Doberman}}s. Its tail resembles that of common depictions of the {{wp|devil}}. Houndoom also seems to bear some resemblances to the extinct {{wp|tasmanian tiger|Tasmanian Tiger/Tasmanian Wolf}}. Much like the Tasmanian Tiger, Houndoom is a hound with a lean body and stripey pattern on its back. Houndoom's shiny coloration could be based on {{wp|Yama}}, the Hindu Lord of the Fallen, who often appears blue and red.

====Name origin====
Houndoom is a combination of ''{{wp|hound}}'' and ''doom''.

Hellgar is a combination of ''{{wp|hell}}'' (alluding to its dark and fiery nature, as a hellhound) and ''gar'' (a sound that dogs make).

'''Bibarel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビーダル''' ''Beadaru'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Bidoof}} starting at [[level]] 15.

==Biology==
Bibarel is a bulky, bipedal Pokémon similar to a beaver. Brown fur covers most of this Pokémon with a tan circle on its chest. Its face is covered by a tan mask with a rounded extension over each eye; the male will have an additional extension to the side of each eye. While its forepaws are small and slightly webbed, its hind paws are larger and more rounded. Both sets of paws are black with three toes, but the hind paws have circular, tan paw pads. Bibarel's large, flat tail is black with a tan, wavy marking near the tip. Rounded tufts of fur line each side of its face. Its short, dark brown snout has a small red nose and protruding upper incisors. These teeth are used for chewing trees. This Pokémon is known to be an industrious worker that dams rivers by building its nest. However, a river dammed by Bibarel will never overflow. It is slow moving and awkward out of water, but a swift swimmer.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Bibarel.

Bibarel is based on a {{wp|beaver}}.
====Name origin====
Bibarel may be a combination of ''beaver'' or ''Biber'' (German for ''beaver'') and ''barrel''. It may also refer to ''bib'' (which is similar to the pattern on Bibarel's front) or a transliteration of ビーバー ''biibaa'' (beaver).

'''Lyra''' (Japanese: '''コトネ''' ''Kotone'') is the female [[player character]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. Lyra takes over the role from {{ga|Kris}} in {{game|Crystal}}. Her male counterpart is {{ga|Ethan}}.

==Storyline in the games==
===When selected as the player character===
Lyra's journey as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} begins when [[Professor Elm]] asks her to run an errand for [[Mr. Pokémon]], who lives north of [[Cherrygrove City]]. Because she may encounter dangerous wild {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} along the way, Elm gives her a choice between three Pokémon for protection: {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}} or {{p|Chikorita}}.

Lyra meets a strange boy the same age as her watching Elm's Lab from outside. When she tries to talk to him, the boy abruptly shoves her away. The boy, {{ga|Silver}}, will become Lyra's rival, analogous to {{ga|Blue}} in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III|III]].

Lyra continues onward and finally meets Mr. Pokémon and completes the errand. While there she meets [[Professor Oak]] who, upon realizing Lyra's bond with her new Pokémon, gives her a [[Pokédex]]. On her way back home, Lyra again meets Silver, who has stolen one of Elm's remaining Pokémon. After defeating the boy in battle, she learns his name from his dropped {{ga|Trainer Card}} and relays it to the police in New Bark Town. Professor Elm allows Lyra to keep the Pokémon she chose earlier, and encourages her to compete in the [[Johto League]].

From there Lyra begins on a Pokémon journey in the [[Johto]] [[region]], facing off against its eight [[Gym Leader]]s, defeating and disbanding the revived [[Team Rocket]], and becoming [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]] by defeating the [[Elite Four]] and its previous Champion, [[Lance]] at [[Indigo Plateau]]. Along the way she also teaches Silver to respect Pokémon as living creatures and not just as tools for battle.

After being declared the Pokémon League Champion, Lyra then takes a short trip on a ship, the [[S.S. Aqua]], from [[Olivine City]] to [[Vermilion City]] in [[Kanto]]. Journeying across that region, she battles against its own set of eight Gym Leaders. Upon getting permission from [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]], Lyra heads for [[Mt. Silver]] via {{rt|28|Kanto}}. Her journey comes to a close when she faces the Champion from Pallet Town Pokémon Trainer {{ga|Red}} at the summit of Mt. Silver, who had been training there since shortly after he became Pokémon League Champion [[Generation III|three years prior]].

===When not selected as the player character===
[[File:HGSS Prerelease Ethan Lyra.png|thumb|left|200px|Lyra speaking with {{ga|Ethan}}]]
If {{ga|Ethan}} is selected to be the player character, Lyra meets him in [[New Bark Town]] at the start of the game. In this particular scene, she is seen with a {{TP|Lyra|Marill}}. Her role in the storyline of HeartGold and SoulSilver is similar to that of {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}} in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} if they are not chosen as the player character, while Ethan takes this place if she is selected as the player. She teaches the player how to catch Pokémon on {{rt|29|Johto}} (replacing the [[Dude]] from {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}).

While playing as Ethan, her grandparents run the [[Pokémon Day Care]] on {{rt|34|Johto}}. She also gives the player the [[Fashion Case]] in [[Goldenrod Tunnel]] and the [[Vs. Recorder]] on {{rt|31|Johto}}. Naturally, this role is given to Ethan if she is the player character.

When called from certain locations, Lyra will mention that something will happen if the player takes a certain Pokémon there.

==Pokémon==
Lyra uses this party to show the {{player}} how to catch Pokémon when {{ga|Ethan}} is selected as the player character in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

;[[New Bark Town]]
*After the player gets a starter
:''"<player>! So you picked... a <sc>Chikorita/Cyndaquil/Totodile</sc>! That's a cute Pokémon you have! When you walk with it, it'll become more friendly. You should turn around and talk to it sometimes, too. Oh, that's right! Why don't you show it to your mom? See ya!"''

* In her house
:* If the player hasn't yet got a starter Pokémon
::''" <player>! Professor Elm was looking for you. Did you go to his lab?"''

:* If the player has a starter Pokémon
::''"My <sc>Marill</sc> is super cute... But your <sc>Chikorita/Cyndaquil/Totodile</sc> looks pretty good, too, <player>!"''

Shortly after the release of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, an {{an|Lyra|anime counterpart}} of Lyra appeared in the episodes from ''[[DP143|An Egg Scramble!]]'' to ''[[DP147|Bagged Then Tagged!]]''. Much as with {{an|May}} and {{an|Dawn}}, she shares both her English and Japanese names with the player character she is based on.

===In the manga===
====In the Pokémon Adventures manga====
Although Lyra doesn't appear separately in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, {{adv|Crystal}} essentially serves as counterpart by wearing her {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} outfit in the arc thanks to her mom forcing her to wear it against her will.

====In the Pocket Monsters HeartGold & SoulSilver Go! Go! Pokéathlon manga====
Lyra appeared in [[Pocket Monsters HeartGold & SoulSilver Go! Go! Pokéathlon]]. None of her Pokémon are known.

==Trivia==
* Before her official name was revealed, many fans referred to her as '''Soul''' (Japanese: '''ソウル''' ''Soul''), based on [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|Pokémon SoulSilver]], in similar style to {{ga|Leaf}}.
* Lyra is {{tt|4'11"|1.52 m}} tall and weighs {{tt|90.4 lbs|41 kg}}.
* While some fans assume that {{ga|Kris}} and Lyra are one and the same, [[Takao Unno]] revealed in an interview that he designed Lyra from scratch.
* Lyra shares many of her Japanese default names with {{ga|Leaf}} and {{ga|Dawn}}. She also shares all of {{ga|Kris}}'s default Japanese names.
* Occasionally, Lyra will call and claim that her {{p|Marill}} evolved into {{p|Azumarill}}. Upon meeting her again, however, she will still have a Marill. This mix-up is due to a translation error: In the Japanese version, she talks of how she would be surprised ''if'' she were to turn around on a whim while walking about and find her Marill in the process of evolving, or having evolved, into an Azumarill. She follows that thought up with: "But that would never happen!"
* Lyra is the only player character to not have her own individual cross-canon counterpart from Pokémon Adventures, instead sharing hers with Kris.

==Names==
Like her Japanese name, Lyra's international names are all derived from musical instruments.

Escape

{{Spading|comment=Generation V and VI formula, if different}}

----
[[File:Smoke Ball escape III.png|240px|thumb|Escaping via {{DL|In-battle effect item|Smoke Ball}} in Generation III.]]
In the [[core series]] Pokémon games, it is possible to '''escape''' from a {{pkmn|battle}} with a [[wild Pokémon]] by selecting "Run" on the main battle screen. Escape is not guaranteed however; whether the player is successful at running away from the battle is determined by a calculation involving the speed of the combatants. When the escape is successful, the battle ends immediately. When it is not successful, the wild Pokémon will attack the player's Pokémon.

It is not possible to escape from in-game {{pkmn|Trainer}} battles. However, in player battles in the Cable or Wireless Clubs, attempting to escape will cause the battle to end immediately. If only one player attempts to escape, the battle counts as a loss against them, but if both players attempt to escape in the same turn, the battle ends in a draw.

Entering a battle with a wild Pokémon and then escaping counts the Pokémon as being seen in the Trainer's [[Pokédex]].

==Success conditions==
===Generation I and II===
Under normal circumstances, the chance of escaping is determined by the formula [[File:Escape Formula.png]], where
:A is the current {{Stat|Speed}} of the player's active Pokémon,
:B is the opposing Pokémon's Speed divided by <tt>4</tt>, <tt>mod 256</tt>, and
:C is the number of times the player has tried to escape during the battle (counting the current attempt). If player's Pokémon attacks, this number is set to 0.
If F is greater than 255, the player escapes automatically. Otherwise, a random number is generated between 0 and 255. If that number is less than F, the player escapes. If not, the escape fails and the player's Pokémon does not make a move that turn. If B is equal to 0, escape is automatically a success.
===Generation III and IV===
Under normal circumstances, the chance of escaping is determined by the formula [[File:Escape Formula new.png]], where
:A is the unmodified {{Stat|Speed}} of the player's active Pokémon,
:B is the opposing Pokémon's umodified Speed
:C is the number of times the player has tried to escape during the battle (counting the current attempt).
:The result is <tt>mod 256</tt>.
A random number is generated between 0 and 255. If that number is less than F, the player escapes. If not, the escape fails and the player's Pokémon does not make a move that turn. If B is 0, it's set to 1.

===Other factors===
Several other conditions can cause escape to always succeed or always fail.
* An opponent Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Shadow Tag}} causes the player's escape attempts to fail if the player's Pokémon does not also have Shadow Tag.
* An opponent Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Arena Trap}} causes the player's escape attempts to fail if the player's Pokémon is not {{t|Flying}} type or {{a|Levitate|levitating}}.
* The items {{DL|Escape item|Poké Doll|Poké Doll}}, {{DL|Escape item|Fluffy Tail}}, and {{DL|Escape item|Poké Toy}} can be used to escape from wild Pokémon.
* [[Trapper|Trapping move]]s used by the opponent can prevent the player from even making escape attempts. (When the player selects "Run", "Can't escape!" would be shown but the turn is not wasted.)
* If the player's Pokémon is under the effect of {{m|Ingrain}}, it will be unable to escape.
* Use of the move {{m|Teleport}} will guarantee escape from a wild Pokémon if it is not using or bearing any of the aforementioned moves or abilities.
* If the player's Pokémon is holding a Smoke Ball or has the Ability {{a|Run Away}}, it will always successfully escape (ignoring anything above that would prevent escape).
** In Generation III and IV, if the player's Pokémon that has Run Away or a Smoke Ball faints, if the player attempts to flee instead of sending out another Pokémon, they will escape without fail.

While not effects that directly affect escape, using the moves {{m|Whirlwind}} or {{m|Roar}} in a wild battle forces the wild Pokémon to leave the battle, which has the same effect as escaping. However, if the wild Pokémon has the Ability {{a|Suction Cups}} or has used the move {{m|Ingrain}} previously in the battle, it will be immune to Whirlwind and Roar. Similarly, a Pokémon that has the Ability {{a|Soundproof}} is immune to Roar.

In Generation III only, Smoke Ball has animation when escaping using it. In Generation II, "Got away safely" redundantly appears after the message informing of escape via Smoke Ball.

As of Generation VI, if the player has a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon out, attempts to run from wild battles will never fail regardless of Speed.

===Example (Generation I and II)===
The player's Pokémon has a Speed of 25 and the wild Pokémon has a Speed of 100. The player tries to escape, but hasn't attempted to flee anytime earlier in the battle.

First, calculate B: [[File:Escape Formula Example 1.png]]

Since B isn't above 255, it is just left as is.

Then, calculate F: [[File:Escape Formula Example 2.png]]

Since F isn't above 255, generate a random number between 0 and 255.

The probability of escaping is [[File:Escape Formula Example 3.png]], or approximately 24%. If the player fails to escape, each successive attempt will be 30/256 more likely than the last, or about 11.7%.

Generally speaking, the slower the Trainer's Pokémon and/or the faster the wild Pokémon, the harder it is to escape.

==Wild Pokémon==
Certain wild Pokémon can escape from battle. Pokémon that are [[Legendary Pokémon|legendary]] or found in the region's [[Safari Zone]] are the only ones who flee.

[[Roaming Pokémon]] attempt to flee every turn, and trapping moves can be used to prevent this.

In [[Safari Zone]]s during a [[Safari Game]], Pokémon can escape from battle. The rate of escape is lowered by throwing Bait{{sup/1|RBY}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}{{sup/4|DPPt}}{{sup/4|HGSS}} (while the [[catch rate]] is also lowered) or [[Pokéblock]]s{{sup/3|RSE}}, and the rate of escape is raised by throwing Rocks{{sup/1|RBY}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}, Mud{{sup/4|DPPt}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}, or by "going near"{{sup/3|RSE}} (while the catch rate is also raised).

===Generation II===
In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, however, a few species of wild Pokémon can escape from battle. These Pokémon were intended to be more likely to be caught in a {{ball|Fast}}, but due to a programming error, only {{p|Magnemite}}, {{p|Grimer}}, and {{p|Tangela}} are more likely to be caught in a Fast Ball.

Low probability (~10% chance to flee every turn):
* {{p|Magnemite}}
* {{p|Grimer}}
* {{p|Tangela}}
* {{p|Mr. Mime}}
* {{p|Dratini}}
* {{p|Dragonair}}
* {{p|Unown}}
* {{p|Snubbull}}
* {{p|Heracross}}

Medium probability (50% chance to flee every turn):
* {{p|Cubone}}
* {{p|Quagsire}}
* {{p|Delibird}}
* {{p|Phanpy}}
* {{p|Teddiursa}}

Always:
* {{p|Raikou}}
* {{p|Entei}}
* {{p|Suicune}} (except in {{v2|Crystal}})

Other Pokémon such as {{p|Togetic}}, {{p|Eevee}}, and the legendary birds are also programmed to have a chance to flee, but due to never appearing in the wild, it makes no difference.

Hyperspace Fury (move)

'''Hyperspace Fury''' (Japanese: '''いじげんラッシュ''' ''Dimensional Rush'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. It is the [[signature move]] of {{p|Hoopa}} [[Form differences#Hoopa|Unbound]].

==Effect==
Hyperspace Fury inflicts damage then lowers the user's {{stat|Defense}} stat by one stage. It is unaffected by modifications to the {{stat|accuracy}} stat and {{stat|evasion}} stat. It will also hit the target even if it has used {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}}, {{m|Spiky Shield}}, {{m|King's Shield}}, or {{m|Mat Block}}, and lifts the effects of those moves for the remainder of the turn; if it hits a target that is protected by Mat Block, it removes Mat Block from the target's side of the field. It also removes the effects of {{m|Quick Guard}}, {{m|Wide Guard}}, and {{m|Crafty Shield}} from the target's side of the field. The user of Hyperspace Fury does not suffer the negative effects of its target's Spiky Shield or King's Shield.

If this move is used by any Pokémon other than Hoopa as Hoopa Unbound, the move will fail, even during [[Pokémon Contest]]s. In using the move as a Pokémon other than Hoopa, the battle text ''"But <Pokémon> can’t use the move!"'' will be displayed; if used by {{p|Hoopa}} [[Form differences#Hoopa|Confined]], the battle text ''"But Hoopa can’t use it the way it is now!"'' will be displayed.

Hyperspace Fury does not exist in the game data of {{g|X and Y}}. As a result, a Pokémon knowing Hyperspace Fury cannot be traded from Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to Pokémon X and Y, and if a Pokémon in [[Pokémon Bank]] knows the move, it cannot be withdrawn in Pokémon X and Y. In order to be transferred to Pokémon X and Y, the Pokémon must forget Hyperspace Fury.

==Description==

'''Foul Play''' (Japanese: '''イカサマ''' ''Trickery'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

==Effect==
Foul Play inflicts damage. It uses the target's {{stat|Attack}} stat to calculate damage, as opposed to the user's Attack stat. The target's Attack [[stat modifiers|stat modifier]] is incorporated into damage calculation. With the exception of the Attack stat and Attack stat modifier, all other factors affecting damage calculation, including the item, Ability, type, and status ailment of the user of Foul Play, are incorporated as normal. An exception to this are {{a|Huge Power}} and {{a|Pure Power}} [[Ability|Abilities]], Foul Play will be calculated with double the target's attack stat only if the user has one of the Abilities.

Talk:Serena's Sylveon

2015-12-30T23:52:30Z

JoeIsCool: /* Protect the page due to future evolution? */ new section

== Gender ==

Isn't Eevee female? --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 01:16, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
:Unless she was stated to be a girl in the episode, don't assume genders. You know this already, you do '''not''' need to be re-told about this.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:47, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
::I don't know Japanese, so I couldn't tell if Eevee's gender was told or not when watching XY088. I don't want to cause any trouble about this. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 01:54, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
:::Nah, I listened in on what Serena and the others referred to Eevee, it was mostly "Konoko" which pretty much translates to "this little one" or something on the lines of that. The dress and eyelash (if you look real closely) on Eevee in the op makes me think it's likely going to be female, but like ForceFire says, unless Serena or someone else specifically says Eevee's gender, then it's official. Or from Cute Charm/Attract on an officially stated opposite gender Pokemon.-- --[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ''([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|tAlk]])'' 22:01, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

Guys, Serena literally called Eevee a girl in XY094. I tried to edit her gender in but it got reverted, can a mod do it. This was confirmed by a japanese speaker called Dephender over on Serebii who translates all the summaries, casts lists, and pretty much anything Japanese and is also a mod there so he isn't a random user. [[User:1rkhachatryan|RBK]] ([[User talk:1rkhachatryan|talk]]) 04:35, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
:As I've stated below, I've asked the other admins. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:39, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

== XY094 ==

When Pancham, Quiladin and Chespin were fighting, I think Serena referred to Eevee as a girl. She mentions something about girls (onanoko) hating something (I'm not sure on that part, but since they were fighting I guess Serena was referring to that). --[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ''([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|tAlk]])'' 18:02, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
:Listening to the ep again, Serena said: "'''''Nanbu mune''' wa yokei onanoko mote nai wa yo!''" (the bold words are what I'm not sure of)-- --[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ''([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|tAlk]])'' 21:38, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
::乱暴者は余計女の子にモテないわよ (about 9 minutes in). Roughly: "If you're violent, you'll be even less liked by girls." In the context, that pretty strongly equates to: Eevee's a girl. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:26, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
:::Alright then, thanks! So does that basically mean Eevee's confirmed like with Fennekin when Serena said something about "''Girls should always take good care of themselves!''" back in the Pokevision ep when they were baking? It was used in context thus confirming her gender anyway right? Also if true, would that apply to Chespin and Pancham (and Quilladin) as well for their gender? Serena could only be talking to Quilladin but since the other two were fighting with it, I think what she said applies to them too. What about what Clemont says before Serena said that certain line (you don't have to answer this one)? --[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ''([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|tAlk]])'' 23:01, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
::::FWIW, I don't actually have much to do with the anime usually, so I have little idea of the wiki's standards for things like this; I can only argue about the Japanese. I'd be inclined to say Chespin, Pancham, and Quilladin's genders still aren't confirmed, that would require assuming for them.
::::Clemont's line in XY094? うまく行きそうにないですね ? That doesn't have anyhing to do with gender... [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:22, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
:::::Okay, thanks anyway! Nah, I just wanted to know what Clemont said, I pretty much got what everyone else said in that scene except for him. --[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ''([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|tAlk]])'' 23:56, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
::::::I've asked the other admins but this may take a bit since they may be too busy to check right now.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:37, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
:::::::And they've confirmed it. As for Chespin, Quilladin and Pancham, it does not indicate their genders since girls can be rough too.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:52, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
::::::::Not to start in on a dead horse, but the assumption required is not (primarily, at least) that only boys can be rough. It's that only boys like or want to be liked by girls. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 13:51, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

== Eevee's theme ==

In the trivia section for the article on Ash's Hawlucha it lists the fact that Hawlucha has it's own theme due to it being one the few Pokémon that does. It seems like Eevee also has her own theme since it can be heard during scenes that focus on her. Is this something that should be mentioned in her article like it is in Hawlucha's? {{unsigned|Flain}}
:I think it's worth a mention in the trivia section, if she's one of the few to have themes.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:58, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
::What's the theme name?-- --[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ''([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|tAlk]])'' 22:33, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

== Protect the page due to future evolution? ==

So a new trailer came out for the next couple episodes, showing (along with a lot of other equally hype-worthy things) Eevee evolving into Sylveon in a fight with Miette (probably the dance episode). Should we protect the page now? --[[User:JoeIsCool|JoeIsCool]] ([[Special:Random|I refuse to be]] [[Special:MyTalk|communicated with!]]) 23:52, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Diantha

2015-12-06T16:55:13Z

JoeIsCool: /* Team's Similarities to Steven Stone */ I keep forgetting to put stuff in >.<

== Name meaning ==

Diantha's English, French, and Spanish names refer to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dianthus ''dianthus''], more commonly known as the carnation or pink. Her Japanese name seems to be an intentional misspelling of "carnation" (カーネーション), with "carna-" becoming カルネ. [[User:Arpha|Arpha]] ([[User talk:Arpha|talk]]) 20:09, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

== Key Stone ==
<s>
Diantha has a Key Stone embedded in her necklace, like how male XY protagonist and female XY protagonist have one embedded in their Mega Rings. herefore she is a Mega Man. Can this be added to the article or is it speculation right now?</s> --[[User talk:Relicant|The]] [[Special:Contributions/Relicant|Truth]] aka Relicant 11:35, 14 September 2013 (UTC)

== Resemblance ==
Diantha seems to bear a fairly decent resemblance to French actress {{wp|Audrey Tautou}} (others elsewhere see some of {{wp|Audrey Hepburn}}) and both of course share the same profession. Too much of a stretch to add somewhere or best kept out of the page? [[User:Chicobo329|Chicobo329]] ([[User talk:Chicobo329|talk]]) 23:28, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
:I might of said yes if I didn't check the articles, but I would say that there should be a bit more discussion on adding Audrey Tautou since there are three points of similarity. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 03:29, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
::Doesn't Ken Sugimori have a Twitter account? Why doesn't somebody ask him? [[User:Glik|Glik]] ([[User talk:Glik|talk]]) 03:43, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
:::She is [http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/22800000/audrey-audrey-hepburn-22871737-900-1359.jpg exactly like Audrey Hepburn] to me, too similar to be a coincidence. Someone who knows Japanese should ask Sugimori via Twitter. Wasn't that how he finally confirmed Brendan has a hat, and not white hair? - [[User:Taylor|Taylor]] ([[User talk:Taylor|talk]]) 13:19, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

== Higher resolution picture ==
I found the same Diantha picture featured in this article, but in a much higher resolution. Would it be OK if I replace the current one with this one?
[http://0-media-cdn.foolz.us/ffuuka/board/vp/image/1379/12/1379123851679.jpg]

I think it would be a good idea because in this one you can actually appreciate the Key Stone in Diantha's Mega Necklace.[[User:Karasuhebi|Karasuhebi]] ([[User talk:Karasuhebi|talk]]) 22:14, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

:It's pretty much exactly the same as the artwork that's on site. It has to be smaller on this page to fit the info box. --[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 22:21, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

::Sorry but I don't understand what you meant by "It has to be smaller on this page to fit the info box". Maybe my intention wasn't clear. I mean to leave the thumbnail that we see in the infobox the same size, but I want to replace the actual image with the one linked above, since it's the same one, just in a way higher resolution. Sorry if I confused things, I didn't mean to. :-\[[User:Karasuhebi|Karasuhebi]] ([[User talk:Karasuhebi|talk]]) 22:24, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

:::She understood; she's saying the file we have is already of the same quality as yours, it's just that shrinking it down for the infobox makes it appear lower resolution. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 22:59, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

::::It's not though, the one I found is 1715x2590 and the one you guys have is 781x1280. Unless I'm missing something? [[User:Karasuhebi|Karasuhebi]] ([[User talk:Karasuhebi|talk]]) 23:01, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

:::::You'd have to cut down your file size to upload it (files generally shouldn't exceed 1280x1280). After that, there's not going to be any discernible difference. Especially if it's shrunk even further to fit the infobox. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 23:18, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

::::::I see, I see. Now that you mention the 1280x1280 guideline I understand, they _would_ be pretty much identical. Thanks for the clarification! [[User:Karasuhebi|Karasuhebi]] ([[User talk:Karasuhebi|talk]]) 23:36, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

== Relation to Diancie ==

I can't help but notice remarkable similarities between Diantha and the Pokémon Diancie. Aside from the name, they both wear a white dress of a similar style. Perhaps this is a coincidence. Though it seems unlikely to occur within the same game by accident...
[[User:PlatinumAltaria|PlatinumAltaria]] ([[User talk:PlatinumAltaria|talk]]) 10:07, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
:While they may bear similarities to each other, adding anything about a potential relationship would be speculation, which we try to avoid in articles. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 18:34, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
::Due to the Japanese name of Diancie being, well, Diancie, and the Japanese name of Diantha being Carnet, it's highly unlikely. [[User:Pikachu Bros.|Pikachu Bros.]] ([[User talk:Pikachu Bros.|talk]]) 18:36, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
:I also noticed this, and tried discussing it on the talk page, but... well, it was removed due to the ultimately speculative nature of the issue. I have to point out, though, that the similarities go further than the dress: The outline of the braid that wraps around Diantha's head traces the same shape as the second row of cuts in the gemstone on Diancie's forehead. Additionally, they reuse what appear to be the same shades of gold, pink (on Diantha's handbag) and gray (Diantha's eyes). I feel this is more than enough to conclude that this is an intentional design reference. Even if we can't say why they did it -- for all we know, they might have just liked the way Diancie looked -- is the visual connection solid enough to make note of it in the Trivia section of one or both articles? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 22:45, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
::Almost forgot -- her Japanese name may not be as similar, but Carnet does have a striking similarity to the word garnet, another gemstone. She does have the two rock-types on her team already. If a connection to Diancie is ever confirmed, can we then start assuming the gem puns are intentional, or is this simply too speculative, even compared to most trivia about names? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 15:50, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

== Diantha's Gardevoir ==

In [[XY028]], is her Gardevoir using {{m|Teleport}} to evade her opponent's attacks or is she just moving insanely fast? --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 22:24, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

== Color scheme ==

Shouldn't she have her own color scheme for the article? [[Cynthia]] and [[Alder]] do; for Diantha, we simply used the default [[Kalos]] colors. I don't think that's really justifiable. - [[User:Taylor|Taylor]] ([[User talk:Taylor|talk]]) 22:38, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
:I've always though her colors benefited the {{template|Cologne color}} series well. Maybe we can rename it? - [[User:Chosen|Chosen]] of [[User talk:Chosen|Mana]] 15:05, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

== Team's Similarities to Steven Stone ==

I noticed her team has a couple similarities to Steven's. They both lead with a Flying type (both are single stage and have unique type combos), have their region's two fossil Pokémon, have a Pokémon with both Light Screen and Reflect, and have a dual-type part-Psychic Hoenn Mega. Should I add this to the page? --[[User:JoeIsCool|JoeIsCool]] ([[Special:Random|I refuse to be]] [[Special:MyTalk|communicated with!]]) 16:52, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|Master}} {{type|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]] and the [[Pokémon Champion]] of the [[Indigo Plateau]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing {{ga|Blue}}, the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become Pokémon League Champion, due to {{ga|Red}} stepping down from his position to continue his training at [[Mt. Silver]], and leaving Lance to take Red's place as Champion.
He raises {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise. He prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather is the [[Master (Dragon Tamer clan)|elder]] of a famous clan of Dragon Masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

In Generation II and their remakes, the player first encounters Lance at the [[Lake of Rage]] where he watches the player battle the [[Red Gyarados]]. Lance also appears in [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket at the [[Team Rocket HQ]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

* Before battle
:''"Ah! I heard about you, <{{player}}>! I lead the <sc>Elite Four</sc>! You can call me <sc>Lance</sc> the dragon trainer! You know that dragons are mythical <sc>Pokémon</sc>! They’re hard to catch and raise, but their powers are superior! They’re virtually indestructible! Well, are you ready to lose? Your <sc>League</sc> challenge ends with me, <player>!"''

* Being defeated
:''"That’s it! I hate to admit it, but you are a <sc>Pokémon</sc> master!"''

* After being defeated
:''"I still can’t believe my dragons lost to you, <player>! You’re now the <sc>Pokémon League</sc> champion! …Or, you would have been, but you have one more challenge ahead. You have to face another trainer! His name is… <[[rival]]>! He beat the <sc>Elite Four</sc> before you. He is the real <sc>Pokémon League</sc> champion!"''

I'm <sc>Lance</sc>, a trainer like you. I heard some rumors, so I came to investigate… I saw the way you battled earlier, <player>. I can tell that you're a trainer with considerable skill. If you don't mind, could you help me investigate?"''
::'''Yes''':''"Excellent! It seems that the <sc>Lake</sc>'s <sc>Magikarp</sc> are being forced to evolve. A mysterious radio broadcast coming from <sc>{{to|Mahogany}}</sc> is the cause. I'll be waiting for you, <player>.

I saw how well you were doing, so I just hung back. Now all there is left to do is to turn off that odd radio signal. It's this machine that's causing all the problems. I don't see a switch on it… We have no choice. We have to make all the <sc>{{p|Electrode}}</sc> faint. That should stop this machine from transmitting that strange signal. It's no fault of the <sc>Pokémon</sc>, so it makes me feel guilty. <Player>, let's split the job."''

*If player tries to leave their side
:''"Leave this side to me."''

*After defeating all Electrode
:''"That odd signal has finally stopped. The <sc>Lake</sc> should be back to normal. You're the hero! Let me thank you on behalf of all the <sc>Pokémon</sc>. Oh, yes. You should take this. I found it here, but I don't have any need for it. That's <sc>{{m|Whirlpool}}</sc>. Teach it to a <sc>Pokémon</sc> to get across wild water. But keep this in mind. You can use that out of battle only with the <sc>Badge</sc> from <sc>[[Mahogany Gym]]</sc>. <player>… The journey to becoming the <sc>Pokémon Master</sc> is long and difficult. Knowing that, will you keep going? … I see. No, you're right. If you would give up that easily, you would have never chased that dream in the first place. I look forward to seeing you again!"''

===In the main series===
[[File:Lance anime.png|200px|thumb|Lance in the anime]]
Lance is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the Indigo [[Elite Four]]. He is a member of an organization called the [[Pokémon G-Men]].

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} there, saving the children from some formidable {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.
[[File:Lance TR Disguise.png|left|180px|thumb|Lance disguised as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}]]
Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a [[Red Gyarados]] so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Lance also battled against {{TR|Tyson}} and his two Fearow. Despite being an elite member of Team Rocket, his Fearow were no match for Lance's Dragonite.

Ash was able to calm the Red Gyarados at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]]. Before leaving, Lance promised Ash that he would take care of Gyarados.

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}. Lance infiltrated Team Magma's submarine and confronted [[Shelly]], who suspected that he wasn't really a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}. Shortly after, he freed Ash, who had been captured after Pikachu absorbed the {{DL|Colored orbs|Red Orb}} that controls Groudon. Lance’s Pokémon were later sent into battle to help try to calm the two feuding legendary Pokémon.

He made a cameo in {{jo|Marina}}'s fantasy in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Lance Adventures.png|250px|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon. Apparently also from [[Viridian Forest]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the Viridian Forest as {{adv|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds. Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

He first appears at Vermilion before the start of the Vermilion City Surfing Competition. The {{p|Dragonair}} that was to be offered as a prize to the winner was actually his. He then attacked Vermilion City and destroyed it, saying he was looking for something. When Yellow came after him he tried to capture [[Pika]] to please Agatha and Lorelei but once Pikachu learned Surf he too failed. Before the battle could continue, he mysteriously disappeared.

He next appeared on [[Cerise Island]] battling Blaine and Yellow. When Blaine released Mewtwo, Blaine and Yellow were able to gain the upper hand against Lance's Aerodactyl and his two Dragonair. However, due to Blaine's link with Mewtwo they could only battle together for about three minutes and with time running out Blaine decided to target Lance's Poké Balls so he couldn't call out any other Pokémon and would have to battle with his weakened Pokémon that were already out. He succeeded in destroying the balls only for Blaine to be knocked unconscious due to Mewtwo's time out being run too long. Lance then chuckled to himself, revealing that he had called his Pokémon out of their balls before the battle even began.

[[File:Lance HGSS Adventures.png|left|thumb|210px|Lance during the ninth chapter]]During Lance's battle with Yellow both of them were equally matched, Lance luring the battle out onto the top of Cerise Island, a volcano. Lance then once again gained the upper hand by having his Gyarados and Dragonair make green, red, and blue bubbles so they could not be detected in sunlight. Just when it seemed when Yellow was about to lose, Giovanni arrived and helped subdue Lance, using his {{p|Rhyhorn}} to create a sandstorm to make the bubbles visible. But this capturing only proved to be part of his plan, as he needed Giovanni's Badge since it was the last Badge he needed for the Badge Energy Amplifier to summon Lugia, so he lured Giovanni to the middle of the island so the Earth Badge would be automatically ripped from him and the Amplifier would automatically activate, summoning Lugia. Lance wanted Lugia to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away once they evolved and Yellow was able to channel their power into Pika's [[Moves not in the Pokémon games|Megavolt]]. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{adv|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar (which Silver promptly returned after awakening from his comatose state following the incident at the [[Lake of Rage]]). Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Masked Man]]. After this was fulfilled, Lance is briefly seen flying on his {{p|Aerodactyl}} watching the horizon during part of {{adv|Professor Oak|Oak's}} speech on the radio.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, Lance calls Professor Oak to tell him about the newly revived Team Rocket's plan to obtain the legendary legendary Pokémon, {{p|Arceus}}. He requests that a Pokédex holder be sent to meet him at the Pokéathlon Dome, so Professor Oak sends {{adv|Gold}}, as he was out of available people. Although he arrives there, Lance never shows up, but his Dragonite attacks the area in an injured frenzy. Gold manages to defeat Dragonite and sets off to find out what happened to its Trainer.

After chasing Arceus to the [[Ruins of Alph]], Gold encounters an injured Lance there. Lance reveals that he was ambushed by [[Petrel|someone]] earlier and wasn't able to meet with him. When Gold tries to calm the rampaging Alpha Pokémon, Lance tells him that Arceus is angry at humanity and will only be stopped by someone who can open their heart to it. Because of this, Lance states that Gold will not be able to connect with Arceus until he is able to connect with his [[Togebo|own Pokémon]]. Annoyed, Gold sets off to face Arceus anyway and has [[Bugsy]] take care of Lance in the meantime. Before [[Togebo]] leaves, Lance hands it a Shiny Stone, just in case. He also reveals that Gold hadn't connected with his Togebo.

As Gold continues to battle Arceus, Lance sets off to find someone else who can help with the battle. Later, he returns with {{adv|Giovanni}} and [[Pryce]] to combat the {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}} that were created on the Mystri Stage. There, Lance faces Palkia while Giovanni battles Giratina and Pryce battles Dialga. With his Dragonite's ability to redirect its Hyper Beam, Palkia's ability to manipulate space is rendered useless as all redirected attacks are sent back to its original target.

It is later revealed that when Lance went to go find help, he arrived at the [[Ilex Forest]], where he heard the voice of Pryce, who was trapped in the crack in time. Upon arriving, he found Giovanni, who was attacking Pryce in a fit of rage. He asks the two men to put aside their differences and help him stop the destruction of Johto. After the battle had ended, Gold asks how Lance was defeated by a coward like Petrel. Lance reveals that Petrel defeated him by disguising himself as {{adv|Yellow}}, the person with the same powers and birthplace as him. At the end of the chapter, Giovanni entrusts the training of Silver to Lance and Pryce, his two former teachers, so that he can one day face his son.

During the contest, Lance brainwashes the Dragonair and it starts launching Whirlpools at the surfers, bringing them down to the sea. Yellow finds out that Lance was responsible for this and battles his Dragonair and loses. Lance used these Dragonair to shield himself from the lava at Mt. Cerise by using bubbles. Yellow is once again in his clutches as they, along with Gyarados were responsible for the shaking of the mountain. The two Dragonair have four unique abilities: the first is to cross the seas and skies, the second is changing the direction of energy blasts, the third is controling the weather (which is used in Lance's first fight against Yellow), and the fourth is combining their attacks Lance usually uses only the first two when fighting opponents, the third against stronger ones, and all four only a very few times.

As a result, it fled from Lance.

It was seen again in the [[Whirl Islands]] where it was on a rampage after being controlled by the [[Masked Man]], who caught it just as {{adv|Gold}}, {{adv|Silver}}, and {{adv|Crystal}} were about to.

While Red did well on the first two, Lance managed to get on the space shuttle while Red and the gang was on. After the shuttle got destroyed, Lance flew away on his Dragonite while {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} had to deal with an upset {{OBP|Professor Oak|Pocket Monsters}}.

Lance reappeared in ''[[PM038|The Final Battle!!]]'' where he destroyed a village. The villagers ask Red and his Pokémon to defeat Lance. During the match, Clefairy was still no match for his Dragonite, even the weapons that he threw at it. However, when Lance was about to get beaten, Dragonite reveals its story about how he met Lance. However, the story is later found out to be a lie, and Lance ran off with his Dragonite, with Red and his Pokémon chasing him from behind.

==Trivia==
[[File:Lance Dragonite Barrier RGB.png|frame|Lance's Dragonite using {{m|Barrier}} in {{game3|Red and Green|Red, Green|s}}, and {{game3|Red and Blue|Blue|s}}]]
[[File:Lance Aerodactyl Rock Slide GSC.png|frame|Lance's Aerodactyl using {{m|Rock Slide}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}]]
[[File:Lance Team Magma.png|200px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Magma Grunt]]
* In the games, Lance is depicted as being from [[Blackthorn City]], but the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga depicts Lance as being from [[Viridian Forest]] (albeit of Blackthorn descent).
* Lance has two Pokémon with moves they [[Game move errors|cannot normally learn]]: the {{p|Dragonite}} that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in {{game3|Red and Green|Red, Green|s}}, and {{game3|Red and Blue|Blue|s}}, as well as the {{p|Aerodactyl}} that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}.
* Starting in {{game|Yellow}}, Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite.
** Additionally, the non-Dragon-type Pokémon used by Lance in the main series ({{p|Gyarados}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Charizard}}) are all part Flying-type, as well as partially or fully resembling dragons.
**Furthermore, in Generation II and Generation IV, Lance's Dragonite are under level 55 when the player battles him the first time. The player cannot obtain a Dragonite no lower than 55 through in-game gameplay except from distribution events.
* Lance is the only member of the Johto Elite Four who, on the second time through, still does not have a team of only his type, with Charizard and Gyarados not being Dragon types.
* In the {{Pkmn|anime}}, Lance has disguised himself as a member of a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] twice, as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} in ''[[EP235|Talkin' Bout an Evolution]]'', and later as a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}} in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''.
* Lance is the only Trainer the {{player}} can battle with in a Double Battle ([[Team Rocket HQ]]), against in a Double Battle ([[Dragon's Den]]), and against in a single battle (as {{pkmn|Champion}}) so far. Furthermore, the Multi Battle with him against [[Ariana]] and a Grunt can be seen parallel to the Multi Battle the player has with [[Steven Stone]] in {{game|Emerald}} against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]].
* Despite taking place three years later, Lance's Pokémon are at a lower level in Generation II than they were in Generation I. The same thing occurs with [[Bruno]].
* Lance appears as an opponent in [[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]. He uses a Dragonite in battle.
* From Generations {{Gen|I}} to {{Gen|III}}, all of his Pokémon know {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* Although Lance is the Champion in all Johto-based games, he does not use any Generation II Pokémon in these games.
* Lance's Gyarados, Charizard and Dragonite can appear to level down, if the player decides to battle him and [[Clair]] in [[Dragon's Den]] before collecting all 16 Badges and the Elite Four upgrading their teams in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, as they are levels 68-75 in the [[Multi Battle]] and are levels 48-50 when re-challenged at the [[Indigo League]].
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, in the [[Mahogany Town]] souvenir store, Lance commands his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} to use {{m|Hyper Beam}}, yet the attack Dragonite uses more closely resembles {{m|Giga Impact}}.
* In the manga, Lance and the [[Elite Four]]'s motivations are similar to the plans of [[N]] and [[Team Plasma]]. Both pretend to summon a legendary Pokémon ({{p|Lugia}} or {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} respectively) in order to create an utopia for Pokémon.
* In [[Generation IV]], all of his Pokémon except {{p|Aerodactyl}} suffer double weakness. {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, and {{p|Dragonite}} suffer double weakness against {{t|Ice}} type, {{p|Gyarados}} for {{t|Electric}} type, and {{p|Charizard}} with {{t|Rock}} type.
* Lance is the only character that appears in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] who is or used to be an Elite Four member.
** Lance is also the only Champion in the Pokémon World Tournament who can be battled [[Challenge the Champion Lance!|outside]] of the [[Champions Tournament]].

'''Feebas''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヒンバス''' ''Hinbass'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Milotic}} when [[level]]ed up with its {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} condition high enough or when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Prism Scale}} ([[Generation V]] onwards).

==Biology==
Feebas is a shabby, old-looking fish-like Pokémon with a light brown body covered in dark, irregular spots. It has large, deep-set eyes and big, pink lips. The tail and pectoral fins are dull blue and tattered in appearance. The dorsal fin is triangular with a hole in the middle. Due to its poor appearance, it is largely ignored by {{pkmn|Trainers}} and researches alike. However, this hardy Pokémon is capable of eating anything and living anywhere. It is often found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|weed-choked ponds}}, even if only a little water is available. While there are many of this Pokémon in existence, populations tend to cluster in small areas. Once found, its dull wits make it easy to capture.

==In the anime==
[[File:Feebas anime.png|thumb|220px|left|Feebas in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
A Feebas appeared in ''[[DP021|Ya See We Want An Evolution!]]'' under the ownership of [[Haley]]. It was nicknamed the loveliest Feebas of all.

In ''[[DP043|Malice in Wonderland!]]'', a Feebas, which later evolved into a {{p|Milotic}}, appeared under the ownership of [[Johanna]]; however, it turned out to be an illusion created by {{p|Mismagius}}.

===Minor appearances===
Feebas first appeared biting [[Jessie]]'s hair in ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]''.

The [[Magikarp salesman]] sold a Feebas to Jessie in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]'' but it was actually a {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio|Magikarp}} in disguise.

A Feebas also appeared in ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''.

Another Feebas also appeared in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Feebas has several similarities to {{p|Magikarp}}:
** Though its level-up moves are exactly the same as those of Magikarp, Feebas can learn moves from [[TM]]s and [[HM]]s, hatch from an Egg with [[Egg move]]s, and learn new moves via Move Tutors, making it slightly more useful in battle.
** Feebas shares its {{pkmn|category}} name with Magikarp. They are both known as the Fish Pokémon.
** Feebas and Magikarp have almost identical stats. However, Feebas has a higher {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}, while Magikarp has a higher {{stat|Special Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}}. Both Attack and Defense stats for Feebas and Magikarp are reversed.
** They share the largest base stat total increase of all Pokémon when they evolve: 340 (from 200 to 540).
** They both change appearances drastically after evolution, evolving into serpentine, dragon-like Pokémon.
* Feebas is the only Pokémon that needs a modification of its Contest stats for it to evolve.
** Although Contest conditions are a hidden stat in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, {{game|Black and White|s}}, {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, and {{g|X and Y}}, a Feebas that has maximum {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} will still evolve in these games. The [[Prism Scale]], introduced in Generation V, was created due to the fact that there is no legitimate way to raise the Beauty of a Feebas created in the Generation V games, whereas with FireRed and LeafGreen, a trade to Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald was all that was required, and a haircut or grooming by [[Daisy Oak]] or the [[Haircut brothers]] is all that is required in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
** This also makes Feebas the only Pokémon that can evolve into a single stage through multiple methods in the [[core series]].
* Feebas has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} of any Pokémon, tied with {{p|Shuckle}} and {{p|Bonsly}}.
* The probability of finding a [[water tile]] with Feebas on {{rt|119|Hoenn}} is approximately 1/73, with six possible [[fishing]] spots on 436 water tiles. In [[Mt. Coronet]], it is 1/132, with four possible fishing spots on 528 water tiles. If the player reels in one Pokémon in every tile, the chance of passing every Feebas tile without reeling in a single Feebas is 1/64 on Route 119, while in Mt. Coronet it is 1/16.
* Feebas has the lowest maximum Pokéathlon [[Performance]] of any Pokémon, only capable of reaching 11 stars.

===Origin===
As its name suggests, Feebas is probably based on a {{wp|bass (fish)|bass}}, possibly the {{wp|largemouth bass}}. It also resembles the {{wp|marine hatchetfish}}. Its ugly appearance makes it appear to be also based from the concept of ugliness, appearing to don a wash of ugly makeup. It also seems to be based on the classic {{wp|fairy tale}}, ''{{wp|The Ugly Duckling}}'', where a small and feeble "ugly duckling", treated as an outcast by other animals, blossoms into a beautiful {{wp|swan}}.

====Name origin====
Feebas is a combination of ''feeble'' (weak) and ''{{wp|bass (fish)|bass}}''. ''Feebas'' is also phonetically similar to ''phoebus'' (Latin for ''shining one''), possibly alluding to {{p|Milotic}}, its evolved form.

Hinbass is a combination of 貧 ''hin'' (poor) and ''bass''. ''Hin'' may also come from the words ''hind'' (located at the rear) or ''hinder''.

{{types}}
The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Dark-type Pokémon are [[Karen]] of the [[Indigo Plateau]] [[Elite Four]], [[Sidney]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, and [[Grimsley]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four. Notably, the Dark type is the only type that has never had a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] specialize in it, although it is a recurrent type used by [[villainous teams]] and Elite Four members. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Dark-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

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

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

Prior to [[Generation VI]], Dark/{{type|Ghost}} Pokémon had no weaknesses (excluding {{t|Fighting}} under immunity-negating conditions such as {{m|Foresight}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. Introduced in Generation VI, the {{t|Fairy}} type is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Dark and not resisted by Ghost.

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

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

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

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

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

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon of any generation, with 16, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest (minus [[Generation I]]) Dark-type Pokémon, with six.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Dark-type moves of any generation, with 11, and Generation VI introduced the fewest (minus Generation I) Dark-type moves, with three.
* In [[Generation II]], the Dark type saw one type change in a move ({{m|Bite}}), but no change in a Pokémon. The opposite is true for the {{t|Steel}} type, which saw one type change in a Pokémon family ({{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}}), but no change in a move.
* There has yet to be a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] that specializes in the Dark type.
** The {{t|Fairy}} type, introduced in Generation VI, received its own gym before the Dark type, introduced in Generation II.
* Despite Dark-type moves being considered special before Generation IV, [[Dark Pulse|the]] [[Snarl|only]] [[Night Daze|three]] Dark-type Special moves were introduced ''after'' Generation III.

{{types}}
The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Dark-type Pokémon are [[Karen]] of the [[Indigo Plateau]] [[Elite Four]], [[Sidney]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, and [[Grimsley]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four. Notably, the Dark type is the only type that has never had a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] specialize in it, although it is a recurrent type used by [[villainous teams]] and Elite Four members. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Dark-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

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

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

Prior to [[Generation VI]], Dark/{{type|Ghost}} Pokémon had no weaknesses (excluding {{t|Fighting}} under immunity-negating conditions such as {{m|Foresight}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. Introduced in Generation VI, the {{t|Fairy}} type is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Dark and not resisted by Ghost.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon of any generation, with 16, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest (minus [[Generation I]]) Dark-type Pokémon, with six.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Dark-type moves of any generation, with 11, and Generation VI introduced the fewest (minus Generation I) Dark-type moves, with three.
* In [[Generation II]], the Dark type saw one type change in a move ({{m|Bite}}), but no change in a Pokémon. The opposite is true for the {{t|Steel}} type, which saw one type change in a Pokémon family ({{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}}), but no change in a move.
* There has yet to be a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] that specializes in the Dark type.
** The {{t|Fairy}} type, introduced in Generation VI, received its own gym before the Dark type, introduced in Generation II.
* Despite Dark-type moves being considered special before Generation IV, [[the|Dark Pulse]] [[only|Snarl]] [[three|Night Daze]] Dark-type Special moves were introduced ''after'' Generation III.

'''Aura Break''' (Japanese: '''オーラブレイク''' ''Aura Break'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. It is the [[signature Ability]] of {{p|Zygarde}}.

==Effect==
===In battle===
Aura Break reverses the effects of {{a|Fairy Aura}} and {{a|Dark Aura}}. Instead of increasing the power of {{t|Fairy}} and {{t|Dark}} Moves by 33%, Fairy Aura and Dark Aura will instead decrease the power of {{t|Fairy}} and {{t|Dark}} moves, respectively, by 33% as long as the Pokémon with Aura Break remains on the field.

===Outside of battle===
It is unknown if Aura Break has an effect outside of battle.

Legend Terrain

2015-07-20T18:43:49Z

JoeIsCool: /* Arceus */ Made it in third person

{{incomplete|2=Missing images, how Deoxys's Formes and Genesect's Drives work, Spanish stage names}}
[[File:Legend Terrain Rumble World.png|thumb|right|The Legend Terrain selection screen as seen in the [[Pokémon Rumble World#Balloon Stop|Balloon Stop]]. Going clockwise from the top, bosses visible in this screenshot are {{p|Gallade}} (behind the text), {{p|Barbaracle}}, {{p|Shelgon}}, {{p|Reuniclus}}, {{p|Dusclops}}, and {{p|Hawlucha}}.]]
'''Legend Terrain''' (Japanese: '''レジェンド大陸''' ''Legend Continent'') is the final area in [[Pokémon Rumble World]], available after obtaining Rank 50. The Legend Balloon is required for access.
__TOC__
All stages in Legend Terrain feature a [[Legendary Pokémon]]:
*{{p|Rayquaza}} (Sky Crest Range Special)
*{{p|Deoxys}} (Meteorite Parkland Special)
*{{p|Darkrai}} (Tomb of Nightmares Special)
*{{p|Arceus}} (Bastion of Beginnings Special)
*{{p|Genesect}} (Primeval Thicket Special)
*{{p|Diancie}} (Mineral Crust Hollow Special)

==Bastion of Beginnings==
Unlike every other stage in the game, "Bastion of Beginnings: Special" has a completely unique enemy list of all Eeveelutions. Each group of enemies in the Special area features one Eeveelution and a group of Eevee. All other areas have a standard set of enemies.

===Mew===
{{p|Mew}} is featured as a regular random enemy instead of a boss encounter and is the only enemy who can appear in all four versions of the stage; the odds of it appearing are based on the number of stars for the area being visited, with better odds for more stars. In the Special version of the stage, it will always appear with a horde of Sylveon, who otherwise only appear in the boss chamber.

===Arceus===
The boss of the Special section is {{p|Arceus}}, who can appear in its normal form but can also appear with any of its Plates in place. The Plate in use is pre-determined by the date, and is the same for everyone on that day. The order of Plate appearance is according to the following order from the game. Day 1 is presumed to be a Normal-type Arceus here for illustration purposes, but it's possible for a player to encounter any of the types first, at which point the order can be followed from then on.

| 17 || Dark-type
|-
| style="background:#FFF; {{roundybl|5px}}" | 18
| style="background:#FFF; {{roundybr|5px}}" | Fairy-type
|}

For an example, if a player encounters a Bug-type Arceus on the first visit to the area and player revisits the area the next day, the Arceus encountered will be a Ghost-type Arceus. The following day will have a Steel-type Arceus, and so on.

After Arceus appears as a Fairy-type, it will go back to a Normal-type Arceus the next day.

===Pokémon List===
Arceus's changing type is reflected in the following table. The type shown is the type that will be found by players battling Arceus on today's date as listed in UTC time (at the top of the page); depending on the player's actual date, the result will differ according to the table above by one day.

'''Hoopa''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フーパ''' ''Hoopa'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}} [[Legendary Pokémon|Mythical Pokémon]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] to or from any other Pokémon, it has an [[Form differences|alternate form]], which it changes into by using the [[Prison Bottle]]. Its default form, '''Hoopa Confined''', will then become '''Hoopa Unbound'''. Hoopa Unbound will revert into Hoopa Confined if three days have passed after using the Prison Bottle or if it is deposited in the [[PC]].

Hoopa Confined was officially revealed in the February 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine. Hoopa Unbound was officially revealed in the May 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine.

==Biology==
Hoopa Confined is a light purple Pokémon with several pink markings. There is a v-shaped marking on its chest and bands around its wrists. Additionally, there are pink markings around its head and a growth on top resembling hair tied into a ponytail. There is a yellow, ring marking in the center of its forehead, and it has green eyes with yellow sclera. On either side of its head is a dark gray horn that curves slightly upward. Hoopa has three gold rings: one large one around its lower body and one hanging freely on each of its horns. Its arms are not attached to its body and float next to it. Each arm has a small golden spike on one end and a hand similar to a mitten on the other. There is a golden spike on each shoulder, which is similar to those on its arms. Hoopa's lower body consists only of a wispy structure similar to its ponytail.

Hoopa Unbound has a similar color scheme to Hoopa Confined, although the main color is now a light blue and its markings are slightly darker. This form is bipedal and has six arms. The ponytail on its head is larger and bushier, and its eyes are now yellow with white sclera. Its horns are darker and less curved with spiky, purple fur at the base. This form has a pointed, dark gray snout and a mouth full of pointed teeth. Several tufts of purple fur surround its torso. Each of its arms is disconnected from the body and has a gold ring on one end and a three-fingered hand on the other. All of its arms has a ring around each wrist as well. Many other rings are present on this form: there are two around each ankle, two around the base of its ponytail, two at the base of each horn, one near the center of each horn, one around its waist, and one encircles a black hole in the middle of its body. The circular mark on its forehead also surrounds a much smaller black hole. A purple, protruding stripe extends down each leg, widens at the knee, and makes a circle around the tip of the foot. Additionally, this form has a tail with a purple stripe along the top and arrow-shaped tip.

Hoopa has the power to transport things using teleportation, which warps space. Hoopa Unbound is said to be Hoopa's true form. Hoopa Unbound is said to have the power to bend dimensions which allows it to seize anything in the world. Hoopa Confined is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Hyperspace Hole}}. Hoopa's alternate form, Hoopa Unbound, has its own signature move, {{m|Hyperspace Fury}}.

===Origin===
Hoopa Confined may have been inspired from common depictions of {{wp|jinn|djinn}}, particularly those with a wisp-like tail. It having rings around its wrists could have been inspired from the djinn in the story of {{wp|Aladdin}}.

Hoopa Unbound may also have been inspired from djinn, while its six arms may have been drawn from the Hindu deities known as {{wp|Shakti}}, who were rumored to grow multiple arms. It may also be based on the {{wp|Gegenees}}, who were a tribe of six-armed giants who fought the {{wp|Argonauts}}. Its tail and horns may also derive from common depictions of demons.

Its ability to use its hoops to transport things may be based on {{wp|Portals in fiction|portals}}. Its relationship with the [[Prison Bottle]] is similar to the djinni with its lamp in traditional Arabian stories, being that their full power is sealed from them with their respective vessel, or place (thing) of containment. Its limitation of only being able to remain as Hoopa Unbound for three days parallels the limit to the number of wishes a djinni can grant to its current master. In both of its forms, its shiny coloration reflects on the Arabian origins of djinn.

====Name origin====
Hoopa is derived from ''hoop''. It may also be derived from ''hoopla'' (something loud, attention-grabbing, and possibly misleading).

'''Hoopa''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フーパ''' ''Hoopa'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}} [[Legendary Pokémon|Mythical Pokémon]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] to or from any other Pokémon, it has an [[Form differences|alternate form]], which it changes into by using the [[Prison Bottle]]. Its default form, '''Hoopa Confined''', will then become '''Hoopa Unbound'''. Hoopa Unbound will revert into Hoopa Confined if three days have passed after using the Prison Bottle or if it is deposited in the [[PC]].

Hoopa Confined was officially revealed in the February 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine. Hoopa Unbound was officially revealed in the May 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine.

==Biology==
Hoopa Confined is a light purple Pokémon with several pink markings. There is a v-shaped marking on its chest and bands around its wrists. Additionally, there are pink markings around its head and a growth on top resembling hair tied into a ponytail. There is a yellow, ring marking in the center of its forehead, and it has green eyes with yellow sclera. On either side of its head is a dark gray horn that curves slightly upward. Hoopa has three gold rings: one large one around its lower body and one hanging freely on each of its horns. Its arms are not attached to its body and float next to it. Each arm has a small golden spike on one end and a hand similar to a mitten on the other. There is a golden spike on each shoulder, which is similar to those on its arms. Hoopa's lower body consists only of a wispy structure similar to its ponytail.

Hoopa Unbound has a similar color scheme to Hoopa Confined, although the main color is now a light blue and its markings are slightly darker. This form is bipedal and has six arms. The ponytail on its head is larger and bushier, and its eyes are now yellow with white sclera. Its horns are darker and less curved with spiky, purple fur at the base. This form has a pointed, dark gray snout and a mouth full of pointed teeth. Several tufts of purple fur surround its torso. Each of its arms is disconnected from the body and has a gold ring on one end and a three-fingered hand on the other. All of its arms has a ring around each wrist as well. Many other rings are present on this form: there are two around each ankle, two around the base of its ponytail, two at the base of each horn, one near the center of each horn, one around its waist, and one encircles a black hole in the middle of its body. The circular mark on its forehead also surrounds a much smaller black hole. A purple, protruding stripe extends down each leg, widens at the knee, and makes a circle around the tip of the foot. Additionally, this form has a tail with a purple stripe along the top and arrow-shaped tip.

Hoopa has the power to transport things using teleportation, which warps space. Hoopa Unbound is said to be Hoopa's true form. Hoopa Unbound is said to have the power to bend dimensions which allows it to seize anything in the world. Hoopa Confined is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Hyperspace Hole}}. Hoopa's alternate form, Hoopa Unbound, has its own signature move, {{m|Hyperspace Fury}}.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Hoopa Confined.
** Due to its unique type combination, Hoopa Confined is the only Pokémon with a double weakness to {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Ghost}}. This also makes it the only Pokémon with a double weakness to one of its own types.
* Hoopa Unbound is the tallest {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, and is tied with {{me|Gyarados}} as the tallest {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.
* Hoopa Unbound has the highest base {{Stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.
* Hoopa Unbound is the heaviest {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.
* Hoopa is the only Pokémon to have more than one Species name.
* Hoopa is the only [[Generation VI]] Pokémon to have different Pokédex entries between {{pkmn|X and Y}} and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.
* Hoopa and [[Mewtwo]] are the only Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by base stats|680 base stat total]] that are not [[version mascot|version mascots]], and are also the only ones not part of any [[Legendary trio]]s.
** Hoopa is also the only Pokémon in this group which cannot be obtained through legitimate means other than events.

===Origin===
Hoopa Confined may have been inspired from common depictions of {{wp|jinn|djinn}}, particularly those with a wisp-like tail. It having rings around its wrists could have been inspired from the djinn in the story of {{wp|Aladdin}}.

Hoopa Unbound may also have been inspired from djinn, while its six arms may have been drawn from the Hindu deities known as {{wp|Shakti}}, who were rumored to grow multiple arms. It may also be based on the {{wp|Gegenees}}, who were a tribe of six-armed giants who fought the {{wp|Argonauts}}. Its tail and horns may also derive from common depictions of demons.

Its ability to use its hoops to transport things may be based on {{wp|Portals in fiction|portals}}. Its relationship with the [[Prison Bottle]] is similar to the djinni with its lamp in traditional Arabian stories, being that their full power is sealed from them with their respective vessel, or place (thing) of containment. Its limitation of only being able to remain as Hoopa Unbound for three days parallels the limit to the number of wishes a djinni can grant to its current master. In both of its forms, its shiny coloration reflects on the Arabian origins of djinn.

====Name origin====
Hoopa is derived from ''hoop''. It may also be derived from ''hoopla'' (something loud, attention-grabbing, and possibly misleading).

'''Mewtwo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウツー''' ''Mewtwo'') is a {{type|Psychic}} [[Legendary Pokémon]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into two different forms: '''Mega Mewtwo X''' using {{DL|Mega Stone|Mewtwonite X}} and '''Mega Mewtwo Y''' using {{DL|Mega Stone|Mewtwonite Y}}.

It is a member of the {{DL|Legendary duo|Mew and Mewtwo|Mew duo}} along with {{p|Mew}}.

==Biology==
Mewtwo is a [[artificial Pokémon|Pokémon created by science]]. It is a bipedal, humanoid creature with some feline features. It is primarily gray with a long, purple tail. On top of its head are two short, blunt horns, and it has purple eyes. A tube extends from the back of its skull to the top of its spine, bypassing its neck. It has a defined chest and shoulders, which resemble a breastplate. The three digits on each hand and foot have spherical tips. Its tail is thick at the base, but thins before ending in a small bulb.

Mega Mewtwo X is larger and bulkier than its normal state. The horns on its head are longer, extending from V-shaped ridges on its forehead, pointed, and curved upward. It now has two tubes behind its neck, its eyes are light blue, and it has large, purple growths over its shoulders. Its torso is smooth and small compared to its long, bulky limbs, and a Y-shaped line connects the collar and underbelly. Its forearms and thighs each have two raised ridges, and its digits are now longer and thinner. The tail is slightly shorter and stiffer than before and has a curled tip.

In comparison, Mega Mewtwo Y is smaller and lighter, losing its long tail and the tube behind its neck. However, it grows a long, purple appendage with a curled tip from the back of its head that is similar to its previous form's tail. On its head it has two pointed, backward-curving spikes and a half-ring structure connecting the base of each, with empty space inside. Its eyes are now red and slightly larger. The digits on its hands and feet are now purple and more bulbous, and the middle toe is longer than the others. A bumpy ridge similar to a {{wp|sternum}} replaces the breastplate structure on its chest, but this form is still largely smoother than the other two.

Mewtwo was created after years of horrific gene splicing and DNA engineering experiments based on {{p|Mew}}. It is said to have the most savage heart among all Pokémon, lack compassion, and strike fear into its enemy with cold, glowing eyes. Because it was engineered to be the ultimate in battle, it can only think of defeating its foes. In the first movie, {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}} exemplified these vicious characteristics and was shown to be capable of levitation, telepathy, and mind control. However, it was [[Mewtwo Returns|later shown]] to be caring, protective, and even altruistic. Another {{OBP|Mewtwo|Best Wishes series}} in the anime shared its aversion to contact with others, but was much less belligerent. Mewtwo conserves energy by remaining motionless to unleash its full power in battle. It is also capable of materializing psychic waves in the form of its [[signature move]], {{m|Psystrike}}. Though {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|rarely seen}} in the wild, it is said to be resting in a dark cave somewhere.

==History==
According to the [[Pokémon Mansion journals|scientific logs]] found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} of [[Cinnabar Island]], Mewtwo was born of a pregnant {{p|Mew}}, found deep in the jungles of [[Guyana]], whose embryo had been tampered with to alter its DNA. It was held and studied in the mansion where [[Mr. Fuji|a scientist]] performed horrific gene-splicing experiments that made it vicious and extremely powerful. It eventually broke free of the Mansion, destroying it in the process, and fled. It can be encountered in [[Cerulean Cave]], accessible only after a Trainer has proven his or her skill at the [[Indigo Plateau]].

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Mewtwo (original series)]]====
While Mewtwo has been the Pokémon of focus of a {{pkmn|movie}} and a special, it also made brief appearances in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' and ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' in its body armor. The first instance was when {{an|Giovanni}} used it to battle [[Gary's Arcanine]] and {{p|Nidoking}}. The second time was when Mewtwo totaled Giovanni's headquarters and flew off. While a scene involving Mewtwo and Giovanni did appear in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'', it wasn't in the movie. Mewtwo made further appearances during the openings of ''[[M06|Jirachi Wish Maker]]'' standing on a rooftop wearing a cape, and in the intro of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', chasing a {{p|Mew}}.

====[[Mewtwo (Best Wishes series)]]====
Another Mewtwo and the [[Mega Evolution]] Mega Mewtwo Y debuted in the special episode ''[[SS026|Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening]]'', a prologue to ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''. In the special, Mewtwo escaped from [[Mewtwo's creators|its creators]] and fought against a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunter]] named [[Dirk]], while [[Virgil]] helped protect it.

It reappeared in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'' as both its normal form and Mega Mewtwo Y. At the beginning of the film, Mewtwo encountered the [[Genesect Army]], who were looking for their home after being recreated. After a short conflict, the Army departed, and Mewtwo followed them to [[New Tork City]]. It met {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, then got into a great conflict with the Red Genesect leading the Army.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mewtwo appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'' and is the most powerful Pokémon controlled by the [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===

Mewtwo appears as the ultimate adversary of {{OBP|Red|Origins}} in [[Pokémon Origins]] in ''[[PO04|File 4 - Charizard]]''. As in the games, it is encountered in [[Cerulean Cave]] after defeating {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. In a hard battle that wiped out almost all of Red's Pokémon, Mewtwo is defeated by {{p|Charizard}} after it Mega Evolves into Mega Charizard X. With Mewtwo captured after several tries, Red then had all 150 known Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* One of the [[Pokémon Mansion journals]] states that Mewtwo's birthday is February 6.
** The same journal implies that Mew was impregnated with the modified clone, as in real life cloning. All other depictions show Mewtwo being grown using laboratory equipment.
* Mewtwo comes before {{p|Mew}} in the [[Pokédex]] despite being created from its modified DNA.
* Mewtwo and [[Hoopa|Hoopa Unbound]] are the only Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by base stats|680 base stat total]] that are not [[version mascot|version mascots]], and are also the only ones not part of any [[Legendary trio]]s.
** Among these Pokémon, Mewtwo is the only one to receive a [[signature move]] outside of its [[Generation I|debut generation]]. Mewtwo had no signature move until [[Generation V]], when it became the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Psystrike}}.
* Mewtwo was the first Pokémon seen in the English dub, as it appears at the very beginning of the [[Pokémon Theme|first dub opening]].
* Mewtwo is depicted on the door of [[Bill]]'s lighthouse in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'' despite having only been seen by [[Team Rocket scientists|its creators]] and [[Team Rocket]] at that point in the anime. Similarly, Mewtwo's sprite was depicted as a portrait in Viridian Gym, despite being a public area.
* The island country of {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Mewtwo as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Mewtwo on the reverse side and the nation's crest on the obverse.
* Mewtwo was originally depicted as the only member of its species, being a clone of Mew. In the {{pkmn|anime}} and {{pkmn|manga}}, however, it is implied that multiple Mewtwo have been created.
* Mega Mewtwo Y was the first [[Mega Evolution]] revealed to the public and the first to appear in the anime, even before Mega Evolution was announced.
** Prior to the announcement of Mega Evolution, Mega Mewtwo Y was referred to as its 「覚醒した姿」 ''Awakened Form''.<ref>[http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130618180918/http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2013/06/130615_m02.html?a001=news ポケモン映画最新作『神速のゲノセクトミュウツー覚醒』へと続くオリジナルストーリーが、テレビで放送決定！]</ref> This term was also used in the {{ma|Genesect and the Legend Awakened|manga adaptation of the movie}}.
* Mewtwo's Mega Evolutions are tied with {{me|Rayquaza}} for the highest base stat total of all Pokémon, with 780.
** Mega Mewtwo X has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} of all Pokémon, as well as the highest single base stat and base {{stat|Special Attack}} of all {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.
*** Mega Mewtwo X's Attack increase is the largest single stat increase of all Mega Evolutions, at 80 points.
** Mega Mewtwo Y has the highest base Special Attack of all Pokémon and the highest single base stat of all Psychic-type Pokémon.
* Mewtwo and {{p|Charizard}} are currently the only Pokémon with two Mega Evolutions.

===Origin===
Like {{p|Mew}}, Mewtwo has some {{wp|feline}} characteristics, but its body structure is much larger as a result of {{wp|gene splicing}}. Mewtwo also has some characteristics of a {{wp|grey alien}}.

====Name origin====
Mewtwo is a combination of ''{{p|Mew}}'' (the Pokémon it originated from) and ''two'' (indicating that it is a clone). It also sounds somewhat similar to ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (ミュータント).

'''Mewtwo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウツー''' ''Mewtwo'') is a {{type|Psychic}} [[Legendary Pokémon]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into two different forms: '''Mega Mewtwo X''' using {{DL|Mega Stone|Mewtwonite X}} and '''Mega Mewtwo Y''' using {{DL|Mega Stone|Mewtwonite Y}}.

It is a member of the {{DL|Legendary duo|Mew and Mewtwo|Mew duo}} along with {{p|Mew}}.

==Biology==
Mewtwo is a [[artificial Pokémon|Pokémon created by science]]. It is a bipedal, humanoid creature with some feline features. It is primarily gray with a long, purple tail. On top of its head are two short, blunt horns, and it has purple eyes. A tube extends from the back of its skull to the top of its spine, bypassing its neck. It has a defined chest and shoulders, which resemble a breastplate. The three digits on each hand and foot have spherical tips. Its tail is thick at the base, but thins before ending in a small bulb.

Mega Mewtwo X is larger and bulkier than its normal state. The horns on its head are longer, extending from V-shaped ridges on its forehead, pointed, and curved upward. It now has two tubes behind its neck, its eyes are light blue, and it has large, purple growths over its shoulders. Its torso is smooth and small compared to its long, bulky limbs, and a Y-shaped line connects the collar and underbelly. Its forearms and thighs each have two raised ridges, and its digits are now longer and thinner. The tail is slightly shorter and stiffer than before and has a curled tip.

In comparison, Mega Mewtwo Y is smaller and lighter, losing its long tail and the tube behind its neck. However, it grows a long, purple appendage with a curled tip from the back of its head that is similar to its previous form's tail. On its head it has two pointed, backward-curving spikes and a half-ring structure connecting the base of each, with empty space inside. Its eyes are now red and slightly larger. The digits on its hands and feet are now purple and more bulbous, and the middle toe is longer than the others. A bumpy ridge similar to a {{wp|sternum}} replaces the breastplate structure on its chest, but this form is still largely smoother than the other two.

Mewtwo was created after years of horrific gene splicing and DNA engineering experiments based on {{p|Mew}}. It is said to have the most savage heart among all Pokémon, lack compassion, and strike fear into its enemy with cold, glowing eyes. Because it was engineered to be the ultimate in battle, it can only think of defeating its foes. In the first movie, {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}} exemplified these vicious characteristics and was shown to be capable of levitation, telepathy, and mind control. However, it was [[Mewtwo Returns|later shown]] to be caring, protective, and even altruistic. Another {{OBP|Mewtwo|Best Wishes series}} in the anime shared its aversion to contact with others, but was much less belligerent. Mewtwo conserves energy by remaining motionless to unleash its full power in battle. It is also capable of materializing psychic waves in the form of its [[signature move]], {{m|Psystrike}}. Though {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|rarely seen}} in the wild, it is said to be resting in a dark cave somewhere.

==History==
According to the [[Pokémon Mansion journals|scientific logs]] found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} of [[Cinnabar Island]], Mewtwo was born of a pregnant {{p|Mew}}, found deep in the jungles of [[Guyana]], whose embryo had been tampered with to alter its DNA. It was held and studied in the mansion where [[Mr. Fuji|a scientist]] performed horrific gene-splicing experiments that made it vicious and extremely powerful. It eventually broke free of the Mansion, destroying it in the process, and fled. It can be encountered in [[Cerulean Cave]], accessible only after a Trainer has proven his or her skill at the [[Indigo Plateau]].

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Mewtwo (original series)]]====
While Mewtwo has been the Pokémon of focus of a {{pkmn|movie}} and a special, it also made brief appearances in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' and ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' in its body armor. The first instance was when {{an|Giovanni}} used it to battle [[Gary's Arcanine]] and {{p|Nidoking}}. The second time was when Mewtwo totaled Giovanni's headquarters and flew off. While a scene involving Mewtwo and Giovanni did appear in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'', it wasn't in the movie. Mewtwo made further appearances during the openings of ''[[M06|Jirachi Wish Maker]]'' standing on a rooftop wearing a cape, and in the intro of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', chasing a {{p|Mew}}.

====[[Mewtwo (Best Wishes series)]]====
Another Mewtwo and the [[Mega Evolution]] Mega Mewtwo Y debuted in the special episode ''[[SS026|Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening]]'', a prologue to ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''. In the special, Mewtwo escaped from [[Mewtwo's creators|its creators]] and fought against a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunter]] named [[Dirk]], while [[Virgil]] helped protect it.

It reappeared in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'' as both its normal form and Mega Mewtwo Y. At the beginning of the film, Mewtwo encountered the [[Genesect Army]], who were looking for their home after being recreated. After a short conflict, the Army departed, and Mewtwo followed them to [[New Tork City]]. It met {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, then got into a great conflict with the Red Genesect leading the Army.

====Other====
A {{pkmn2|mirage}} Mewtwo appears in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'' and is the most powerful Pokémon controlled by the [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]].

===Minor appearances===
Two Mewtwo appeared in the introduction to ''[[SS029|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', one as Mega Mewtwo X and one as Mega Mewtwo Y.

Mewtwo appears as the ultimate adversary of {{OBP|Red|Origins}} in [[Pokémon Origins]] in ''[[PO04|File 4 - Charizard]]''. As in the games, it is encountered in [[Cerulean Cave]] after defeating {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. In a hard battle that wiped out almost all of Red's Pokémon, Mewtwo is defeated by {{p|Charizard}} after it Mega Evolves into Mega Charizard X. With Mewtwo captured after several tries, Red then had all 150 known Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* One of the [[Pokémon Mansion journals]] states that Mewtwo's birthday is February 6.
** The same journal implies that Mew was impregnated with the modified clone, as in real life cloning. All other depictions show Mewtwo being grown using laboratory equipment.
* Mewtwo comes before {{p|Mew}} in the [[Pokédex]] despite being created from its modified DNA.
* Mewtwo and [[Hoopa|Hoopa Unbound]] are the only Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by base stats|680 base stat total]] that is not a [[version mascot]], and is also the only one not part of any [[Legendary trio]]s.
** Among these Pokémon, Mewtwo is the only one to receive a [[signature move]] outside of its [[Generation I|debut generation]]. Mewtwo had no signature move until [[Generation V]], when it became the only Pokémon able to learn {{m|Psystrike}}.
* Mewtwo was the first Pokémon seen in the English dub, as it appears at the very beginning of the [[Pokémon Theme|first dub opening]].
* Mewtwo is depicted on the door of [[Bill]]'s lighthouse in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'' despite having only been seen by [[Team Rocket scientists|its creators]] and [[Team Rocket]] at that point in the anime. Similarly, Mewtwo's sprite was depicted as a portrait in Viridian Gym, despite being a public area.
* The island country of {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Mewtwo as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Mewtwo on the reverse side and the nation's crest on the obverse.
* Mewtwo was originally depicted as the only member of its species, being a clone of Mew. In the {{pkmn|anime}} and {{pkmn|manga}}, however, it is implied that multiple Mewtwo have been created.
* Mega Mewtwo Y was the first [[Mega Evolution]] revealed to the public and the first to appear in the anime, even before Mega Evolution was announced.
** Prior to the announcement of Mega Evolution, Mega Mewtwo Y was referred to as its 「覚醒した姿」 ''Awakened Form''.<ref>[http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130618180918/http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2013/06/130615_m02.html?a001=news ポケモン映画最新作『神速のゲノセクトミュウツー覚醒』へと続くオリジナルストーリーが、テレビで放送決定！]</ref> This term was also used in the {{ma|Genesect and the Legend Awakened|manga adaptation of the movie}}.
* Mewtwo's Mega Evolutions are tied with {{me|Rayquaza}} for the highest base stat total of all Pokémon, with 780.
** Mega Mewtwo X has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} of all Pokémon, as well as the highest single base stat and base {{stat|Special Attack}} of all {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.
*** Mega Mewtwo X's Attack increase is the largest single stat increase of all Mega Evolutions, at 80 points.
** Mega Mewtwo Y has the highest base Special Attack of all Pokémon and the highest single base stat of all Psychic-type Pokémon.
* Mewtwo and {{p|Charizard}} are currently the only Pokémon with two Mega Evolutions.

===Origin===
Like {{p|Mew}}, Mewtwo has some {{wp|feline}} characteristics, but its body structure is much larger as a result of {{wp|gene splicing}}. Mewtwo also has some characteristics of a {{wp|grey alien}}.

====Name origin====
Mewtwo is a combination of ''{{p|Mew}}'' (the Pokémon it originated from) and ''two'' (indicating that it is a clone). It also sounds somewhat similar to ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (ミュータント).

'''Ash's Goodra''' (Japanese: '''サトシのヌメルゴン''' ''Satoshi's Numelgon'') was the fourth Pokémon {{Ash}} caught in the [[Kalos]] region.

==History==
Prior to its debut on screen, Goodra was a Goomy that lived peacefully in its homeland, [[Kalos Route 14|the wetlands]], as the only Goomy that lived there. It often played with a Wooper, which it was close friends with. One day, while it was playing with Wooper, a large swarm of Ariados, Yanmega, Pinsir, Beedrill, and Seviper began to invade the homeland under the command of a Florges. Goomy, being exceptionally weak and fearful, ran around and panicked, and could do nothing to defend itself or the fellow inhabitants from the intruders except cry. It, along with its friend Wooper, was then confronted by the leader Florges, and was struck by a Moonblast, which sent Goomy flying and caused it to land on a fleeing Swanna. Due to this frightening and unusual experience, Goomy developed an immense fear of {{type|Bug}} and {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon.

Goodra first appeared on screen as a Goomy in ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'', where it was dropped from the sky by the same {{p|Swanna}} onto {{Ash}}'s head. It looked weak and tired so Ash and {{ashfr}} took it to a nearby river to heal it. After having water poured onto it by them, Goomy quickly recovered its health. When {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}} popped out of {{an|Bonnie}}'s bag to greet it, it hid behind Ash, as it is weak to {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon.
[[File:Ash Goomy.png|thumb|left|250px|As a Goomy]]
After traveling for a while, Goomy was frightened once more by a disturbed {{p|Ariados}} - whose tree had been attacked by {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}}. Confused, {{an|Clemont}} decided to use one of his inventions to see why Goomy was so terrified of {{type|Bug}} Pokémon; this revealed that Goomy's homeland was attacked by various Bug-type Pokémon, including Ariados, until Goomy and other inhabitants were rescued by Swanna.

When Goomy and {{AP|Pikachu}} were captured by {{TRT}}, Goomy watched as Pikachu tried to escape. The cage absorbed Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}, so Pikachu rammed into the side of the cage until he made a hole big enough for them to squeeze out of. Goomy was able to slip through, but it was too tight for Pikachu. Seeing Pikachu's predicament, Goomy slipped back into the cage and used its slimy body to help Pikachu squeeze through.

While escaping Team Rocket, Goomy managed to slow [[James]] down with Rain Dance, giving Ash and his friends enough time to battle the trio. However, when {{AP|Fletchinder}} and Pikachu tried to fend off Team Rocket they ended up getting {{status|Confusion|confused}} by {{TP|James|Inkay}}'s {{m|Psybeam}}, making them attack each other. As Ash grabbed onto both of his Pokémon to try and calm them, Goomy began to admire the lengths Ash would go to in order to protect his Pokémon, motivating it to fight. After intercepting {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}} and Inkay's combined {{m|Dark Pulse}} and Psybeam, it used Bide to absorb the hits and eventually defeat Team Rocket. Later, Goomy indicated to Pikachu that it wanted to go with Ash, allowing Ash to capture it in a Poké Ball.

In ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]'', Goomy was sent out to meet the rest of the Pokémon. It was initially intimidated by the group, especially Dedenne; however, it warmed up to them as they were playing. When they were interrupted by Team Rocket's attempt to capture everyone's Pokémon, Goomy - along with Dedenne, {{TP|Serena|Pancham}}, Serena, and Bonnie - was separated from the group. While Serena was battling Team Rocket, Goomy remembered what happened to its old home and fled. Team Rocket found Goomy and attempted to capture it, but they were stopped by Dedenne. Once Goomy saw how much Dedenne cared for it, it battled against Team Rocket long enough for Ash and the rest of the group to find them. After the battle, Goomy is shown affectionately nibbling on Dedenne's ear, no longer afraid of it.
[[File:Ash Sliggoo.png|thumb|250px|As a Sliggoo]]
In ''[[XY058|The Green, Green Grass Types of Home!]]'', Ash had Goomy watch his [[Coumarine Gym]] battle against [[Ramos]], in order to help it get stronger.

In ''[[XY061|An Oasis of Hope!]]'', Goomy had a practice battle against Pikachu, but was interrupted by an injured {{p|Spoink}}. After Spoink recovered they followed it to its home were they found a {{p|Grumpig}} bullying all the Spoink. Ash and the other tried to stop Grumpig, but it hypnotized the Spoink into attacking them and forced them into Team Rocket's trap. Pikachu, along with Chespin, agreed to go with Team Rocket in exchange for Grumpig to stop hurting the Spoink. Goomy and Dedenne sneaked out of the cage and attempted to get the key but ended up getting caught by Grumpig. Dedenne battled against Grumpig and lost, which encouraged Goomy to fight. Goomy used Bide to counter all of Grumpig's attacks, but couldn't do much without any offensive moves. Right when Goomy was about to be hit by {{m|Iron Tail}}, Ash jumped in the way and defended it from harm. Seeing how much Ash cared for it allowed Goomy to evolve into Sliggoo and learn Dragon Breath, and was easily able to defeat Grumpig and Team Rocket. After Team Rocket was blasted off, Grumpig and the Spoink made amends, and Ash and his friends continued on their journey.

In ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]'', Ash showed Sliggoo to his rival [[Tierno]] before having a battle. They later agreed to have a [[Double Battle]], with Ash using Sliggoo and Pikachu against Tierno's {{p|Wartortle}} and {{p|Raichu}}. Before the battle could begin, Team Rocket appeared with their [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]] and tried to capture Pikachu. Sliggoo was able to rescue Pikachu by using Dragon Breath on the machine, but Team Rocket managed to grab Wartortle and Raichu and Sliggoo was grabbed as well trying to rescue them. After Raichu attacked James and Wartortle attacked Jessie, Jessie used Pumpkaboo to attack the cage in retaliation with {{m|Shadow Ball}} which caused the cage that they were in to fall off of a cliff. It shattered at the bottom and Raichu and Wartortle were then found by {{an|Bonnie}} and Tierno, who had split up from Ash and Serena to look for them. Dedenne was able to trace down Pikachu's electricity and began to follow it.

When they encountered a rock in the way, Sliggoo tried to destroy it by ramming into it. Though it initially failed, together with Wartortle and Raichu it was able to destroy the rock. Just before Pikachu was about to be captured by Team Rocket's mecha, Sliggoo rammed into the mecha destroying it and rescuing Pikachu. A Shadow Ball launched by [[Jessie]]'s Pumpkaboo then accidentally hit the remains of the mecha. This started a fire, which surrounded Ash, Serena, and Pikachu. Then Sliggoo remembered how, when it was a Goomy, there were a group of Pokémon trapped in a similar situation. Bolstered by the memory, Sliggoo used Rain Dance to protect its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and put out the fire, and evolved into Goodra in the process. It then used its new move, Dragon Pulse to send Team Rocket blasting off. Later on, it and Pikachu participated in the postponed Double Battle against Tierno's Wartortle and Raichu. As Pikachu struggled against Wartortle, Goodra used Bide to counter Raichu's {{m|Charge Beam}} and {{m|Focus Blast}} and hit Wartortle and Raichu after Pikachu used Iron Tail to block a countering {{m|Hydro Pump}}. After Goodra and Pikachu blocked another attack by Wartortle and Raichu, they defeated them with a Thunderbolt and Dragon Pulse, winning Ash the battle.
[[File:Ash Goodra Hydration.png|thumb|220px|Hydration activated]]
In ''[[XY067|The Moment of Lumiose Truth!]]'', Ash used Goodra as his second Pokémon in his [[Lumiose Gym]] battle against Clemont, first sending it out to face {{TP|Clemont|Heliolisk}}. Goodra first attacked with a Dragon Pulse, but Heliolisk proved to be too fast for Goodra, easily avoiding the attack. The Generator Pokémon then used {{m|Flash}} to blind Goodra, and used the opportunity to strike it with a super-effective {{m|Dragon Tail}}. Goodra proceeded to fire yet another Dragon Pulse, but Heliolisk effortlessly avoided it and used {{m|Thunder Wave}} on Goodra, {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} it. Seeing Goodra was no match for Heliolisk's speed, Ash recalled it, deciding to save its remaining strength for later in the match.

Ash later sent out Goodra as his last Pokémon to battle Clemont's last Pokémon, {{TP|Clemont|Luxray}}. At first, Goodra was at a disadvantage, since it was still paralyzed and Luxray had {{m|Electric Terrain}} active, making all of its {{type|Electric}} moves more powerful. However, upon remembering how Goomy had regained its energy when water was poured onto it, Ash had Goodra use Rain Dance, which both nullified Electric Terrain and activated Goodra's {{a|Hydration}} [[Ability]], curing it from its paralysis. Luxray used {{m|Swift}}, which Goodra countered by using its tail to send the attack back. Luxray, however, dodged the reflected attack and went in for a {{m|Thunder Fang}}. Ash then did a risky choice and told Goodra to use Bide, forcing it to endure Luxray's attack. Clemont intended to defeat Goodra before Bide was finished charging, and told Luxray to attack with {{m|Wild Charge}} and Swift. However, these attacks were incapable of dealing enough damage to defeat Goodra, who then proceeded to release the gathered energy at Luxray, defeating the Gleam Eyes Pokémon and winning the Gym battle for Ash, thus earning him the {{badge|Voltage}}.

In ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'', Ash and his friends came across {{kal|Kenzo}} the caretaker of Goodra's homeland. Goodra became hesitant to return to its home, remembering being attacked by the Army of {{type|Bug}} Pokémon led by a {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime#Florges|Blue Flower Florges}} and being separated from its friend {{p|Wooper}}. However, Wooper and many other members of Goodra's old home encountered Goodra instead, allowing them to reunite. When the Pokémon noted that Florges and her Bug Army were attacking more Pokémon, Goodra decided to intervene, motivating the other Pokémon to fight back and draw Florges out. Despite being reminded to getting attacked by Florges when it was a Goomy, Goodra managed to overcome its fear and fight. After using {{m|Dragon Pulse}} to block Florges's {{m|Petal Blizzard}}, Goodra tried hitting Florges with its tail, which Florges managed to dodge. Florges then used {{m|Grassy Terrain}} to power-up its {{type|Grass}} attacks and followed up by an enhanced {{m|Solar Beam}}. Goodra blocked this attack too using Dragon Pulse, but due to Grassy Field several other Solar Beams were launched from flowers harming Wooper and the other Pokémon. Forced to defend its fellow Pokémon Goodra used its body to shield the others from another Solar Beam and a super-effective {{m|Moonblast}}, heavily damaging it. As Florges was about to finish Goodra off with another Moonblast, Goodra managed to stand up thanks to Ash's encouragement learning {{m|Ice Beam}} in the process. Goodra's Ice Beam managed to overpower Florges's Moonblast defeating her. Unfortunately in the celebrations, Goodra got knocked out by a {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{m|Psybeam}} (coming from Jessie's Pumpkaboo and James's Inkay that are hidden from view) forcing both sides to retreat and recuperate. While Goodra slept, Pikachu, Dedenne and Wooper were abducted by an {{p|Ariados}} under the orders of Florges, who had been blackmailed by {{TRT}}.

In ''[[XY070|Beyond the Rainbow!]]'', although injured, with assistance from Serena and Kenzo, it was able to get up to go after Pikachu, Dedenne and Wooper, after they were captured. When {{AP|Frogadier}} and Fletchinder were defeated by Florges's {{type|Bug}} army. Goodra and the other chase after the Bug-type Pokémon. However {{p|Ariados}} and {{p|Pinsir}} stood in their way, although Ash and Bonnie tried to plead with them and explain that it is Team Rocket's doing, they attacked them. As a result, Clemont sent out Chespin and {{TP|Clemont|Bunnelby}} while Serena sent out {{TP|Serena|Braixen}} to battle them. This distracted them enough to allow Ash, Bonnie and Goodra to pass through. After reaching Florges's hideout, they were confronted by Florges and two {{p|Seviper}}, and discovered Florges was holding a weak {{p|Floette}}. Team Rocket then drains the mystical water inside the cave before revealing themselves along with the captured Pokémon, also revealing Florges's true motives about saving Floette and betraying her. Upon hearing this, Goodra and the others came to realize that Florges wasn't as malicious as they believed she was and that her only motive was saving Floette. After they escape, Goodra and the others chased after them. After they escaped on their mecha, Goodra launches Ash onto the mecha, whilst Florges uses a {{p|Yanmega}} and Goodra launches itself using Dragon Pulse. There, Goodra damages the mecha, allowing the three to enter. Then they found Pikachu, Dedenne and Wooper. Goodra held open a door to allow them to reach the captured Pokémon, but Team Rocket battled them where Goodra took damage trying to protect Florges. Florges and Goodra launched a dual Ice Beam and Solar Beam attack which overpowered Inkay's Psybeam and Pumpkaboo's Dark Pulse, sending Team Rocket blasting off. This decompressed the mecha, causing it to fall, however everyone was able to escape due to the combined efforts of both the Bug-type Pokémon and the Pokémon originally from Goodra's homeland. Goodra then uses Rain Dance, restoring the mystical water and saving Floette. With Floette nursed back to health, Florges and Goodra made a truce and Florges was forgiven for all the trouble she caused. Ash then decides that Goodra should stay behind at its homeland when he saw Goodra happy with its friends and has a tearful goodbye to Ash, hoping to meet again someday.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Ash and Goomy.png|thumb|250px|As a Goomy, with Ash]]
[[File:Ash and Goodra.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash and Goodra]]
As a Goomy, it was a very friendly Pokémon, as it liked to show its affection to others by nibbling on their ears. Even after it had become a Goodra, it maintained its affection, hugging Ash shortly after evolving. It had also proven to be a capable fighter, but was initially scared until it decided to help Ash. Goomy was easily frightened and was afraid of {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon such as {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}} since {{type|Dragon}}s are weak against Fairy-types. In ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]'', after Dedenne was protecting it from Team Rocket, Goomy was pleased and it was no longer afraid of Dedenne. It's also afraid of {{type|Bug}} Pokémon such as {{p|Ariados}} as they destroyed Goomy's original home. When depressed or insulted, Goomy tended to use Rain Dance on the offender, as seen when it used the move on {{an|Serena}} for calling it icky, and in ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]'' where it used the move on [[Jessie]]. It views Pikachu as a role model, and wants to become strong like him and his Trainer.

As shown in ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'', Goomy had a slimy body, which can help reflect attacks without it taking damage or it can put slime on others, making them slimy, as shown when it used this on {{AP|Pikachu}} to help him escape from {{TRT}}'s cage. It also used to dry out easily causing it to become weak or tired, but could stop it by absorbing water.

The invasion of Goomy's home was a clearly traumatic event in its life. In the beginning, whenever it encountered dangerous situations, it tended to flashback to the scene of Bug-types attacking its home, and would freeze from the shock. However, it is capable of overcoming its fears to help its friends, as seen in its debut episode and ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]''. It also leads it to sympathize with others, as seen in ''[[XY061|An Oasis of Hope!]]'', where it became determined to help a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Spoink}}, who had also been driven away from its home by a wild {{p|Grumpig}}. After evolving, some signs of trauma were still present in Sliggoo. In ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]'', an explosion from one of [[Team Rocket's mechas]] caused a fire that reminded it of a group of stranded, young Pokémon surrounded by the fires of the invasion. However, the memory lead Sliggoo to take action, using Rain Dance to put out the flames, and trigger its evolution.

After evolving, Goodra's power and endurance became substantially higher, as it was not only able to deal large amounts of damage, but take hits as well without being knocked out, such as Team Rocket's Pumpkaboo and Inkay's Dark Pulse and Psybeam, Tierno's Raichu's Charge Beam and Focus Blast, and Clemont's Luxray's Thunder Fang, Wild Charge, and Swift. Goodra grew into a brave, strong, and kind Pokémon under Ash's care; in ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'', Goodra completely overcame its fear of Bug-types to defend its homeland against {{p|Florges}}'s Bug-type army. Although it still faltered for a moment after seeing the Blue Flower Florges, it successfully defended itself with encouragement from Ash and {{ashfr}}.

It was also shown in ''[[XY067|The Moment of Lumiose Truth!]]'' that when it wins a battle and Ash thanks it for the hard work, it blushes, however, it means that Ash's promise was fulfilled as in ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'', Ash promised to help Goodra get stronger and he succeeded.

==Trivia==

*Goodra was the first {{type|Dragon}} belonging to a main character that had evolved under their ownership.
**It was also Ash's first Kalos Pokémon to fully evolve.
*Goodra was Ash's first [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
**It was also the first pseudo-legendary Pokémon owned by a main character to have been caught in its basic stage.
*Sliggoo's evolution to Goodra was the first time ''[[V (Volt)#Opening animation: Version 2 (XY029 - current)|Mega V (Mega Volt)]]'' was used as an insert song, albeit an instrumental version.
*Ash's Sliggoo evolved because of the rain from its Rain Dance, which would not ordinarily trigger Sliggoo's evolution by game mechanic.
*Goodra is Ash's first release since {{AP|Lapras}} which was [[EP113|756]] episodes ago. This makes it the only Pokémon Ash has released outside the [[original series]].
*Of all Pokémon that Ash had previously captured and since released, Goodra was with Ash for the least amount of time (16 episodes).
*The episode where Ash caught Goomy first aired in the United States less than a week before the episode where Sliggoo evolved into Goodra first aired in Japan.
**The Japanese air date of ''[[XY070|Beyond the Rainbow]]'' which featured Goodra's departure from the group aired in the same week as the English airing of ''[[XY061|An Oasis of Hope!]]'' which featured the evolution of Goomy into Sliggoo.

'''Noibat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オンバット''' ''Onbat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Flying|Dragon}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Noivern}} starting at [[level]] 48.

==Biology==
Noibat is a lavender bat-like Pokémon. It has two clawed fingers on each wing and two long toes on each foot. Noibat's hips and chest are covered in black fur. It has large yellow eyes, two purple teardrop-shaped spots on the front of its face, and large teardrop-shaped ears that resemble loudspeakers. When its mouth is open, two pointed teeth can be seen on its lower jaw.

Noibat is capable of emitting ultrasonic waves of 200,000 Hertz from its ears, which it can use to stun large creatures, immobilize prey, and determine the ripeness of fruit it enjoys eating. It also uses ultrasonic waves as a means to communicate with other Noibat<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/other_pokemon/#Noibat</ref>.

* Noibat's German name, eF-eM, is the only Pokémon name that uses the Latin alphabet and does not start with a capital letter.
* Noibat and its evolution {{p|Noivern}} are the only dual {{type|Flying}} Pokémon to have Flying as their primary type.
* Originally, Noibat's Pokédex entry on the official Pokémon website was incorrect, showing it as a pure {{type|Flying}} Pokémon. It has been since rectified.

===Origin===
Noibat is based on a bat.

====Name origin====
Noibat is a combination of ''noise'' and ''{{wp|bat}}''

Onbat may be a combination of 音 ''on'' (sound), 音波 ''onpa'' (sound wave), and バット ''bat''.

'''Magnezone''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジバコイル''' ''Jibacoil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Magneton}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]], [[Chargestone Cave]], [[Kalos Route 13]], or on [[New Mauville]]. It is the final form of {{p|Magnemite}}.

==Biology==
Magnezone is the result of {{p|Magneton}} leveling up in the presence of a special magnetic field. The evolution is done on a molecular level, but despite this, scientists have failed at attempts to force it. Magnezone's body is wide and circular, similar to a disc or saucer, with a thin edge circling the diameter of its body. Its main eye is in the center, containing a large, red pupil. On each side of its body, it has a ball shaped addition, with each side containing an eye, horseshoe magnet, and {{wp|Phillips head}} screw. On top of its head is a tall, thin, yellow rod, closely resembling an antenna, which it uses for certain attacks. Behind its body is a third horseshoe magnet, positioned like a tail.

Magnezone is a seemingly-mechanical, genderless creature, but it has emotions, a way of reproducing, and the need for nourishment. With its magnets, it has the ability to control anti-gravity and float through the air at will. As seen in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' and [[Phantom Thief Pokémon 7]], Magnezone's anti-gravity is strong enough to carry humans with ease. Magnezone is rarely seen in the wild, but as seen in [[DP158|the anime]], Magnezone can be very aggressive and territorial. However, it will rarely attack unless provoked. Magnezone is said to be one of the best defensive Pokémon yet.

==In the anime==
[[File:Belmondo Magnezone.png|thumb|left|250px|Magnezone in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Magnezone made its debut in the movie ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' under the ownership of the main antagonist, [[Zero]]. Despite Zero's maniacal behavior, Magnezone was very loyal to him. Magnezone generally acted as a leader to the {{p|Magnemite}}/{{p|Magneton}} army.

A wild Magnezone appeared in ''[[DP158|Regaining the Home Advantage!]]'', where it battled non-stop with a {{p|Metagross}}. These two Pokémon normally battled with each other on a regular basis until their "battle arena" (a deep crater) became filled with water. Because their crater was no longer usable, they took their battle to the streets of a nearby town, and continued fighting, causing much collateral damage.

A Magnezone appeared in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'', ''[[BW119|Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!]]'' and ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]'' under the ownership of [[Barret]], a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}.

A Magnezone appeared in ''[[XY066|Confronting the Darkness!]]'' under the ownership of [[Belmondo]].

===Minor appearances===
Six Magnezone appeared in ''[[XY062|The Future Is Now, Thanks to Determination!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Team Galactic Magnezone P7.png|thumb|175px|Magnezone in [[Phantom Thief Pokémon 7|Pokémon 7]]]]
===In the Phantom Thief Pokémon 7 manga===
Magnezone was used by a {{tc|Galactic Grunt}} that attacked [[Hiori]] and [[Rocco]] when they attempted to fly to the [[Team Galactic]] section base. In the air it fought Hiori's {{p|Drifblim}}, but despite the type advantage Magnezone and the Galactic Grunt were defeated by Hiori's quick thinking.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[Cyrus]] has a Magnezone that evolved from a {{p|Magneton}} at [[Mt. Coronet]].

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
[[Mars]] has a Magnezone which she used to battle [[Hareta]] while he was trying to get to the [[Spear Pillar]].

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Magnezone appears on the Electric terrain of Pokémon Stadium 2.
====Trophy information====
''"A Magnet Area Pokémon. It's a Magneton that evolved in a special magnetic field at Mt. Coronet. Its appearance is quite different after it evolves, but it still has three round eyes. Its shape changes but not its type--it's still both an Electric and Steel type. It learns Magnet Rise, a technique that temporarily nullifies {{type|Ground}} attacks, a traditional weakness."''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]: Magnezone is the sheriff of [[Treasure Town]], and takes Pokémon the player arrests, such as {{p|Drowzee}}.

==Trivia==
* As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it is impossible to evolve Magneton into a Magnezone in these games. The same applies for {{p|Probopass}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. All have to be traded from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to be obtained.
* Magnezone and its evolutionary line have eleven resistances and one immunity, making them and the {{p|Honedge|Honedge}} {{p|Doublade|evolutionary}} {{p|Aegislash|line}} the most resistant Pokémon to date, as no other Pokémon have a higher total amount of resistances and immunities. With the addition of {{m|Magnet Rise}}, which makes them immune to {{type|Ground}} attacks for five turns, their only double weakness is negated.
* The colors on the ends of Magnezone's magnets can turn on and off at will as seen in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]], [[Pokédex 3D Pro]], and {{g|X and Y}}.
* Magnezone [[List of Pokémon by base stats|has the highest]] {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} base stat of any non-{{pkmn2|legendary}}, non-[[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.
* In Pokémon Battle Revolution, if Magnezone is caused to fall asleep, its central "eye" remains open. The outer eyes, however, close.
** This is reversed in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, yet maintained in Pokémon X and Y.
* In the September 2013 [[Nintendo Direct#September 2013|Pokémon Direct]], Magnezone was mistakenly labeled as a [[Gender|female]] Pokémon, when it should be genderless. It was later corrected on the [http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/strategy/ official website].
* Magnezone is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] non-legendary {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.
* No other Pokémon has [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|the same type combination]] as Magnezone and its pre-evolved forms.
* Despite most depictions of Magnezone showing they are able to float through the air, Magnezone does not have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, so it is still affected by {{type|Ground}} moves. However, Magnezone can learn {{m|Magnet Rise}}, which simulates Levitate for five turns.

===Origin===
Magnezone appears to be based on the concept of a fused Magneton; one of the Magnemite taking a larger form and the remaining two Magnemite taking the forms of the smaller bodies on each side. The Magnemite evolution line seem to be based on the objectification of {{wp|electromagnetism}}, one of the four {{wp|fundamental interactions}} of nature. Magnezone in particular is possibly based on {{wp|electromagnetic forming}} caused by {{wp|electromagnetic field}}s and combined with an objectification in the form of a {{wp|flying saucer}} or a {{wp|UFO}}.

====Name origin====
Magnezone is a shortening and combination of ''magnetic zone'', an alternative name for a {{wp|magnetic field}}.

Jibacoil is a combination of 磁場 ''jiba'' (magnetic field) and ''coil'' (referring to an electro-magnetic coil).

'''Magneton''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レアコイル''' ''Rarecoil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} Pokémon and formerly, in [[Generation I]], a pure {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Magnemite}} starting at [[level]] 30 and evolves into {{p|Magnezone}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]], [[Chargestone Cave]], [[Kalos Route 13]], or on [[New Mauville]].

==Biology==
Magneton is the result of three Magnemite being linked together by a strong magnetic force, although a single Magnemite can evolve by itself when no other Magnemite are in the vicinity. The three Magnemite that Magneton consists of can be linked several ways. Magneton is most commonly seen as one Magnemite on top, and two Magnemite linked via body on the bottom, forming a triangle. However, in some cases, commonly seen in 3D Pokémon games, the Magnemite will not be connected at all, remaining in a triangular formation at rest, and being able to freely move within each other's vicinity to form other patterns. The magnetic forces that holds the three Magnemite together is powerful enough to dry up all moisture and raise the temperature {{tt|3.6 °F|2 °C}} in the vicinity. It can also be disruptive to electronic devices.

Even though Magneton is a mechanical creature, it still has the need to eat. [[EP195|As seen in the anime]], food for Magneton consists of electrical currents. It is usually found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain}}, often near power plants. When sunspots flare up, Magneton tends to appear more often, presumably due to the changes in the sun's magnetic field. It has been shown [[PS011|in the manga]] that it possesses the ability to form its electricity into both platforms and barriers. Despite its modern, artificial appearance, carvings depicting Magneton have been [[a:File:Neo Premium File 2.jpg|discovered]] at the [[Ruins of Alph]], indicating it has existed for at least 1,500 years.

==In the anime==

==In the manga==
[[File:Cyrus Magneton Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Magneton in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Magneton makes a cameo aboard the [[S.S. Anne]] in ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'' as one of [[Lt. Surge]]'s Pokémon ready to attack {{adv|Red}}. However, it debuts in the next round, ''[[PS011|Buzz Off, Electabuzz!]]'', when some of them torture Red with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Lt. Surge uses two on his shoulder pads in ''[[PS029|Go for the Golbat]]'' where they produced sonic booms that act as a defensive barrier. Lt. Surge has a squad of Magneton, capable of using electromagnetism to create a tetrahedral aura. This aura is able to ferry people as well as attack and trap anything within, as seen in Volumes [[Pokémon Adventures volume 3|3]], 7, [[Pokémon Adventures volume 10|10]], and [[Pokémon Adventures volume 12|12]].

A wild Magneton appeared in ''[[PS051|Electro Magneton]]'' where it and three Magnemite attacked {{adv|Blue}} and {{tc|Camper|Evan}}, Blue used his Machamp to defeat it.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Magneton is originally known as "Recoil."
* Magneton, along with its pre-evolution {{p|Magnemite}}, were pure Electric-type Pokémon in Generation I, but became dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} in Generation II. This makes them the first Pokémon to ever change typing, and the only ones to do so until Generation V when {{p|Rotom}}'s formes were given additional typing.
* Although it is said that Magneton is made up of three Magnemite, there is contradictory evidence seen in various forms of media.
** In the only anime episode to date showing a Magnemite evolution, ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', when {{an|Ethan}}'s Magnemite #6 evolves into Magneton, it "creates" two Magnemite during evolution, instead of combining with two real Magnemite. Similarly, in the main series games, when Magnemite reaches level 30, it evolves without the aid of two additional Magnemite. This is unlike {{p|Mantyke}} which requires a {{p|Remoraid}} to evolve.
** In {{g|Snap}}, a Magneton ''is'' clearly shown to be created by three Magnemite. Also, when two Magnemite get stuck together halfway through evolution in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|original Mystery Dungeon games]], they mention how three Magnemite must come together to evolve.
** After evolution, Magneton becomes exactly ten times heavier than it was as Magnemite. Logically, it would be three times heavier if it were actually made of three Magnemite. Magnemite weighs 6.0 kg, or 13.23 lbs, while Magneton weighs 60.0 kg, or 132.3 lbs.
* Magneton and its evolutionary line have eleven resistances and one immunity, making them and the {{p|Honedge|Honedge}} {{p|Doublade|evolutionary}} {{p|Aegislash|line}} the most resistant Pokémon to date, as no other Pokémon have a higher total amount of resistances and immunities. With the addition of {{m|Magnet Rise}}, which makes them immune to {{type|Ground}} attacks for five turns, their only double weakness is negated.
* Magneton and its pre-evolution {{p|Magnemite}} are two of few Pokémon that had their [[cry]] changed slightly in [[Generation III]]. This was due to Generation III utilizing a better sound effects game engine and [[Game Boy Advance|newer game system]].
* Magneton has been used by more rival characters than any other Pokémon, being used by three: {{ga|Blue}}, {{ga|Silver}}, and {{ga|Wally}}.
* Despite most depictions of Magneton showing they are able to float through the air, Magneton does not have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, so it is still affected by {{type|Ground}} moves. However, as of [[Generation IV]], Magneton can learn {{m|Magnet Rise}}, which simulates Levitate for five turns.

===Origin===
Magneton is a cluster of three {{p|Magnemite}} which in turn seems to be based on the objectification of {{wp|electromagnetism}}, one of the four {{wp|fundamental interactions}} of nature. They are likely linked through strong electromagnetic force.

====Name origin====
Magneton may be a reference to ''magneton'', a unit of magnetic movement, or a {{wp|magnetron}} forms the core of a {{wp|microwave oven}}.

Rarecoil may be a reference to {{wp|rare-earth magnet}}s.

'''Noctowl''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヨルノズク''' ''Yorunozuku'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Hoothoot}} starting at [[level]] 20.

==Biology==
[[File:Wings Alexander Noctowl.png|200px|left|thumb|Wings Alexander's Noctowl]]
Noctowl bears similarity to an owl with brown plumage and has a darker brown triangle pattern of feathers running down its chest. Its wings and wedge-shaped tail are dark brown, while the underside of its wings is light brown. It has bushy, cream-colored feather 'horns' that look similar to a {{wp|trident}} or {{wp|eyebrows}}. The ring pattern around its eyes and its talons are cream colored, and Noctowl's beak and talons are light pink. Additionally, Noctowl's irises are red. As shown in the [[EP223|the anime]], Noctowl can grow a small beard in its elderly stages.

List of locations by index number in Generation V

2015-06-08T00:37:49Z

JoeIsCool: /* Intro */ Didn't catch that extra 15...

Each location in the [[Generation V]] games has its own identification number used internally by the game. They are enumerated here, in order.

Locations with index numbers up to 00116 appeared in {{game|Black and White|s}}; those with index numbers between 00117 and 00153, as well as the individual index number 30015, are exclusive to {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}. Index numbers between 00076 and 00105 are used for locations in another player's world when using the [[Entralink]]. Index numbers between 00154 and 30000, 30015 and 40000, 40110 and 60000, and above 60003 are filled with null data. If a Pokémon references an index number for met location that does not exist in that game, it will be displayed in that game as [[Faraway place]].

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 have all location headers programmed in that Pokémon Black and White do; however, [[Cold Storage]] and [[Pokémon World Tournament|PWT]] as well as the [[Treasure Hunter]] and [[Nacrene City|{{PK}}{{MN}} Breeder]] appear as the other in the other games.

Though there are pointers for "[[Kanto]]", "[[Johto]]", "[[Hoenn]]", "[[Sinnoh]]" and "[[Orre|Distant Land]]", these are not used for Pokémon caught in these respective regions. Instead, Pokémon sent via [[Poké Transfer]] all use the same met location, with the region displayed being dependent on the game of origin. However, "Hoenn" is used on the {{DL|List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V|Ruby and Sapphire Anniversary Pokémon|Ruby and Sapphire Anniversary}} {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

List of locations by index number in Generation V

2015-06-08T00:36:55Z

JoeIsCool: /* Intro */ Updated linkstuffs because M17, M18, and 2014 World Championships happened.

Each location in the [[Generation V]] games has its own identification number used internally by the game. They are enumerated here, in order.

Locations with index numbers up to 00116 appeared in {{game|Black and White|s}}; those with index numbers between 00117 and 00153, as well as the individual index number 30015, are exclusive to {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}. Index numbers between 00076 and 00105 are used for locations in another player's world when using the [[Entralink]]. Index numbers between 00154 and 30000, 30015 and 40000, 40110 and 60000, and above 60003 are filled with null data. If a Pokémon references an index number for met location that does not exist in that game, it will be displayed in that game as [[Faraway place]].

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 have all location headers programmed in that Pokémon Black and White do; however, [[Cold Storage]] and [[Pokémon World Tournament|PWT]] as well as the [[Treasure Hunter]] and [[Nacrene City|{{PK}}{{MN}} Breeder]] appear as the other in the other games.

Though there are pointers for "[[Kanto]]", "[[Johto]]", "[[Hoenn]]", "[[Sinnoh]]" and "[[Orre|Distant Land]]", these are not used for Pokémon caught in these respective regions. Instead, Pokémon sent via [[Poké Transfer]] all use the same met location, with the region displayed being dependent on the game of origin. However, "Hoenn" is used on the {{DL|List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V|Ruby and Sapphire Anniversary Pokémon|Ruby and Sapphire Anniversary}} {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

'''Maylene''' (Japanese: '''スモモ''' ''Sumomo'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Veilstone City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Veilstone Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Cobble}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She specializes in {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Maylene uses {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon in her battles. Trainers who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Cobble}}, {{TM|60|Drain Punch}}, and are able to use {{m|Fly}} outside of battle. In addition, if she is the fourth Gym Leader defeated, all Pokémon up to level 50 will obey their Trainer. Maylene is considered a cute little girl, but adults in the town respect her for her power. Maylene's father gambles at the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]. Maylene apparently does not know her own strength, as she is unsure of how she got to be Gym Leader, and seems rather confused by the whole thing.

Later in {{v2|Platinum}}, the player encounters her upon entering {{rt|217|Sinnoh}} where she is apparently {{pkmn|training}} by walking to [[Snowpoint City]]. She does not use {{m|Fly}}—even if she can—so she can train herself. She is also used to the cold, even if she is lightly dressed and barefoot. In Snowpoint's [[Pokémon Center]], she says that she admires [[Candice]] for being so studious and that she will see her later. In the post-game, she can appear at the [[Battleground]], where she and the other Sinnoh Gym Leaders and Trainers can be battled again. After battling her here, she mentions that she believes that being barefoot is healthier than wearing footwear, pointing out that Pokémon go barefoot.

Maylene appears in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} in [[Celadon City]]'s restaurant, having entered what appears to be an eating contest; piles of empty bowls surround her, amazing her onlookers. In addition, she will occasionally participate in the [[Pokéathlon]]'s Supreme Cup in the Power Course with her {{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Meditite}}, and {{p|Machoke}}.

Maylene seems to like to eat a lot, saying how it is so great that she can eat all she wants in both the [[Battleground]] and Celadon City's restaurant, and is apparently able to eat many bowls in one sitting.

'''[[Veilstone Gym]]'''
* Before battle
:''"Hello. I'm pleased to meet you. I'm Maylene, and I'm the [[Gym Leader]]. I don't really know what it means to be strong, or how I got to be the Gym Leader. But I will do the best I can as the Gym Leader. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Oh! But this isn't the end, my friend!"''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I shall admit defeat... You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"...OK. You win. That was a tough loss. I learned a lot from it. Please, accept this Gym Badge."''
:''"Gee, I'm hungry... Oh, sorry, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. <Player>, I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"''

'''{{rt|217|Sinnoh}}''' ({{v2|Platinum}} only) 
:''"Oh, <player>! Um, are you maybe on your way to [[Snowpoint City]]? That's where I'm going, too. If I use {{m|Fly}}, I can get there instantly, but I'm walking for my training. I have no problem with this. I'm used to the cold because I go barefoot and lightly dressed. ...Achoo! Oh, that was nothing. Really, I'm not cold at all. I'll be going now. Please take care!"''

'''[[Snowpoint City]] [[Pokémon Center]]''' (Platinum only) 
:''"Brrr... Oh, hi, <player>! Are you taking the Gym challenge now? I'm hoping to see [[Candice]] soon, but I'm staying put until I warm up again first. Oh, you should know that Candice is a user of {{type|Ice}} Pokémon. I really admire Candice. She's so studious. She wanted to practice against me to learn about the {{t|Fighting}} type. It's because the Ice type matches up badly against the Fighting type."''

'''[[Villa]]'''
:''"...Um, your Villa... Would it be OK if I took a look around?"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, I'm beginning to understand the feelings of Pokémon. It lets me choose moves with much more confidence!"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, my handwriting has improved tenfold! ...Yes. It has absolutely nothing to do with how strong I am as a Gym Leader."''
:''"...You know those [[Accessory|Accessories]] for Pokémon? Would it be funny if someone were to wear those?"'' (to Candice)
:''"...! Th-thank you so much!"'' (to Candice)
:''"What makes a Gym Leader a good one?"'' (to Candice)

'''[[Battleground]]'''
* Before battle
:''"I think it's OK to keep losing to the same Trainer. Battling that person tells me how much my Pokémon and I have changed. That's why I would like to challenge you for a rematch now, <{{Player}}>."'' 
:''"Yes, what is it, <{{Player}}>? Would you maybe like a battle?"'' (If ''No'' was the first answer) 
::'''Yes''': ''"OK! Rei! Oh, that's my bow before a match. <{{Player}}>, I'm throwing everything I have at you!"'' 
::'''No''': ''"Sigh... I braced myself for a battle. This is a little deflating..."''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"This is like back at the Gym, isn't it? I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I'm forced to admit defeat again. You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"I love visiting here. Buck's grandpa cooks for us, and it's all delicious. That's not all! We can eat all we want. Isn't that amazing, <{{Player}}>?"''

'''[[Battleground]]''' (alternate)
* Before battle
:''"Being together with Pokémon gave me the strength to keep going. Please, <{{Player}}>, accept my challenge!"'' 
:''"<{{Player}}>! I know I'm being a pest, but please, accept our challenge!" (If ''No'' is the first answer) 
: Yes: ''"OK, here we come, <{{Player}}>!"'' 
: No: ''"OK! Got it! We'll train much harder so we can battle with you, <{{Player}}>!"''

* During battle
:''"This is like back at the Gym, isn't it? I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I'm forced to admit defeat again. You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"Hello, <{{Player}}>! I've heard that it's more healthy to go barefoot. Come to think of it, the Pokémon are all barefooted."''

==In the anime==
[[File:Maylene anime.png|left|thumb|230px|Maylene in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

Maylene made her first appearance in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.

Prior to the events of the episode Maylene had been challenged by [[Paul]], who brought Pokémon to the Gym that had type-advantages over hers. Worse than that, Maylene felt out of sync with her Pokémon and as a result she suffered an embarrassing defeat, not even managing to knock out a single one of Paul's Pokémon. Afterwards, when she gave him the {{Badge|Cobble}}, he noted how weak she was. As a result Maylene had lost confidence in herself as a Gym Leader, a position she's only held for six months. This, combined with how badly the previous battle went, caused her {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}} and the majority of her Gym assistants to lose faith in her. When {{Ash}} challenged her, she declined, much to the annoyance of Lucario.

Discovering {{an|Dawn}} has similar issues herself (following ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night]]'' and ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'''s contest defeats), Maylene agrees to have a Gym battle with her in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. She managed to defeat Dawn after a hard-fought battle.

She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie. With the decision now hers, Maylene considered Ash to have battled well enough that she awarded him the {{Badge|Cobble}}.

Maylene also appeared in ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]'', helping Ash and {{ashfr}} to stop [[Team Galactic]] from stealing the Veilstone City Meteorites.

She reappeared in a flashback in [[DP120]].

Its first full appearance was during Maylene's Gym battle against {{an|Dawn}} in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''.

It was the first Pokémon used by Maylene during her Gym battle against Ash, where it put up a strong defense against his Staravia despite the type disadvantage. Despite this however Machoke was still defeated by the Starling Pokémon's combination of {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}.

==In the manga==
===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Maylene Wake Adventures.png|thumb|right|Maylene and her Riolu and Crasher Wake with his Floatzel]]
Maylene is first seen training with her two Pokémon, Meditite and Riolu where she overhears a trio of children planning to challenge her Gym. While jogging around the city she almost gets hit by [[Chimler]]'s Ember (when the trio was testing {{adv|Platinum}}'s newly-earned Zoom Lens). Due to a misunderstanding she assumes that Platinum was one of the kids who planned to challenge her, she then challenges Platinum to a match, adding that Platinum must use Monferno against her. She later battles Platinum in the Veilstone Gym, but is defeated when Platinum uses her skills at playing the slots to help Monferno defeat her Riolu.

She later appears in [[Snowpoint City]], jogging in the cold where Platinum spots her and asks her to take her to the Snowpoint Gym Leader, Candice. She watches the Gym battle between Candice and Platinum and later, along with Candice, joins Platinum on her quest to stop Team Galactic from blowing up [[Lake Acuity]] and capturing the legendary {{p|Uxie}}. Later, at Lake Acuity they are confronted by Team Galactic Commander, Jupiter and despite putting up a good fight, are defeated by her powerful Pokémon and are unable to prevent Uxie from being captured. After being healed they decided to get some training in order to defeat her, Candice calls fellow Gym Leader Byron who then calls and asks Volkner to train them. After some difficulty with their new tutor, they finish their training with him and later at the Spear Pillar, she and Candice fight and defeat Jupiter along with the other Galactic Commanders. She and the other Gym Leaders later fight Team Galactic Leader Cyrus in order to break the Red Chain controlling the legendary Dialga and Palkia and after a tough battle, they are able to break the Chain. However, it turns out the one they broke was the second artificial one that he created.

Later, the Gym Leaders are found unconscious lying in a pile of rubble by Platinum and [[Cynthia]]. After helping them out, Maylene, Candice, and [[Gardenia]] wake up and give Platinum a {{p|Pachirisu}}, a {{p|Froslass}}, and a {{p|Cherrim}}, respectively. Just after, a stray attack fired from the battle between Diamond and Pearl against Dialga and Palkia knocks them unconscious and melts the Poké Balls, preventing Platinum from using her newly gained team members. Later, when the clash between Dialga and Palkia creates a black hole in the sky, Maylene and the other Gym Leaders are nearly sucked into it before being saved by Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. After Cyrus's defeat, Maylene, the other Gym Leaders, and Cyrus are carried by the Sinnoh Pokédex holders so they can be taken to the hospital to heal their injuries.

It is heavily implied that due to her father's gambling habit, Maylene is actually living in poverty as seen when she is jealous of Platinum's wealth and the fact that her father wears shabby clothing along with that every time he appears, his stomach is seen growling. This was revealed to be a fact when she gave Platinum her Pachirisu.

==Trivia==
* Maylene is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} to not appear outside her Gym at least once in the game. She makes several appearances outside of her Gym in {{game|Platinum}}, however, when the player reaches {{rt|217|Sinnoh}}, at the Pokémon Center in [[Snowpoint City]] before beating Candice, and at the [[Battleground]].
** She also appears in Celadon City in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Maylene's Japanese name is shared with that of one of the [[Kimono Girl]]s of [[Ecruteak City]]. That Kimono Girl's name was changed to ''Komomo'' in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, possibly not to conflict with Maylene's Japanese name, as Maylene herself appears in those games.
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being third, Maylene is now fourth in the line-up.
* She is also the only Gym Leader in Sinnoh to have more Pokémon of the opposite gender than of the same gender as her; in the Veilstone Gym, two out of her three Pokémon are male, while at the Battleground, three out of five are.
* Of all of the Trainers that can be fought at the [[Battleground]], Maylene has the strongest Pokémon of any of them. Her Lucario, at level 66, is one level stronger than the rest of the Trainers' strongest Pokémon, as all of the rest are at Lv. 65.
** However Maylene compensates for this, since her strongest Pokémon doesn't hold a [[Sitrus Berry]] unlike the other trainers at the Battleground.
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are the same levels that Pastoria Gym Leader [[Crasher Wake]]'s Pokémon are.
** This is most likely due to the fact that the player can choose to visit Veilstone or Pastoria simultaneously without affecting the progression of the storyline, meaning Wake and Maylene could be battled in either order.
* Maylene's Meditite in [[Pokémon Adventures]] knows {{m|Bullet Punch}}, {{m|Power Swap}}, and {{m|Psycho Cut}}. These moves are impossible to have at the same time in the games.
* Maylene shares some similarities with [[Korrina]]:
** Both are female Gym Leaders who specialize in Fighting-type Pokémon.
** Both are the third Gym Leaders in badge case order in their respective regions.
** Both use a Pokémon with {{m|Fake Out}} as their first Pokémon.
** Both use a {{p|Machoke}} with {{a|Guts}}, {{m|Rock Tomb}} and {{m|Leer}} in battle as their second Pokémon.
*** Both retain this Machoke in a rematch.
** Both use a level 32 {{p|Lucario}} with {{a|Steadfast}} and {{m|Bone Rush}} in battle.
** Both hand out a [[TM]] containing a move with the word "Punch" in its name which has beneficial effects on its user.

'''Maylene''' (Japanese: '''スモモ''' ''Sumomo'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Veilstone City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Veilstone Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Cobble}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She specializes in {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Maylene uses {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon in her battles. Trainers who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Cobble}}, {{TM|60|Drain Punch}}, and are able to use {{m|Fly}} outside of battle. In addition, if she is the fourth Gym Leader defeated in Diamond and Pearl, all Pokémon up to level 50 will obey their Trainer. Maylene is considered a cute little girl, but adults in the town respect her for her power. Maylene's father gambles at the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]. Maylene apparently does not know her own strength, as she is unsure of how she got to be Gym Leader, and seems rather confused by the whole thing.

Later in {{v2|Platinum}}, the player encounters her upon entering {{rt|217|Sinnoh}} where she is apparently {{pkmn|training}} by walking to [[Snowpoint City]]. She does not use {{m|Fly}}—even if she can—so she can train herself. She is also used to the cold, even if she is lightly dressed and barefoot. In Snowpoint's [[Pokémon Center]], she says that she admires [[Candice]] for being so studious and that she will see her later. In the post-game, she can appear at the [[Battleground]], where she and the other Sinnoh Gym Leaders and Trainers can be battled again. After battling her here, she mentions that she believes that being barefoot is healthier than wearing footwear, pointing out that Pokémon go barefoot.

Maylene appears in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} in [[Celadon City]]'s restaurant, having entered what appears to be an eating contest; piles of empty bowls surround her, amazing her onlookers. In addition, she will occasionally participate in the [[Pokéathlon]]'s Supreme Cup in the Power Course with her {{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Meditite}}, and {{p|Machoke}}.

Maylene seems to like to eat a lot, saying how it is so great that she can eat all she wants in both the [[Battleground]] and Celadon City's restaurant, and is apparently able to eat many bowls in one sitting.

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Oh! But this isn't the end, my friend!"''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* After being defeated
:''"...OK. You win. That was a tough loss. I learned a lot from it. Please, accept this Gym Badge."''
:''"Gee, I'm hungry... Oh, sorry, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. <Player>, I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"''

'''{{rt|217|Sinnoh}}''' ({{v2|Platinum}} only) 
:''"Oh, <player>! Um, are you maybe on your way to [[Snowpoint City]]? That's where I'm going, too. If I use {{m|Fly}}, I can get there instantly, but I'm walking for my training. I have no problem with this. I'm used to the cold because I go barefoot and lightly dressed. ...Achoo! Oh, that was nothing. Really, I'm not cold at all. I'll be going now. Please take care!"''

:''"Brrr... Oh, hi, <player>! Are you taking the Gym challenge now? I'm hoping to see [[Candice]] soon, but I'm staying put until I warm up again first. Oh, you should know that Candice is a user of {{type|Ice}} Pokémon. I really admire Candice. She's so studious. She wanted to practice against me to learn about the {{t|Fighting}} type. It's because the Ice type matches up badly against the Fighting type."''

'''[[Villa]]'''
:''"...Um, your Villa... Would it be OK if I took a look around?"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, I'm beginning to understand the feelings of Pokémon. It lets me choose moves with much more confidence!"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, my handwriting has improved tenfold! ...Yes. It has absolutely nothing to do with how strong I am as a Gym Leader."''
:''"...You know those [[Accessory|Accessories]] for Pokémon? Would it be funny if someone were to wear those?"'' (to Candice)
:''"...! Th-thank you so much!"'' (to Candice)
:''"What makes a Gym Leader a good one?"'' (to Candice)

'''[[Battleground]]'''

::'''Yes''': ''"OK! Rei! Oh, that's my bow before a match. <{{Player}}>, I'm throwing everything I have at you!"'' 
::'''No''': ''"Sigh... I braced myself for a battle. This is a little deflating..."''

'''[[Battleground]]''' (alternate)

: Yes: ''"OK, here we come, <{{Player}}>!"'' 
: No: ''"OK! Got it! We'll train much harder so we can battle with you, <{{Player}}>!"''

* During battle

==In the anime==
[[File:Maylene anime.png|left|thumb|230px|Maylene in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

Maylene made her first appearance in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.

Prior to the events of the episode Maylene had been challenged by [[Paul]], who brought Pokémon to the Gym that had type-advantages over hers. Worse than that, Maylene felt out of sync with her Pokémon and as a result she suffered an embarrassing defeat, not even managing to knock out a single one of Paul's Pokémon. Afterwards, when she gave him the {{Badge|Cobble}}, he noted how weak she was. As a result Maylene had lost confidence in herself as a Gym Leader, a position she's only held for six months. This, combined with how badly the previous battle went, caused her {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}} and the majority of her Gym assistants to lose faith in her. When {{Ash}} challenged her, she declined, much to the annoyance of Lucario.

Discovering {{an|Dawn}} has similar issues herself (following ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night]]'' and ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'''s contest defeats), Maylene agrees to have a Gym battle with her in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. She managed to defeat Dawn after a hard-fought battle.

She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie. With the decision now hers, Maylene considered Ash to have battled well enough that she awarded him the {{Badge|Cobble}}.

Maylene also appeared in ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]'', helping Ash and {{ashfr}} to stop [[Team Galactic]] from stealing the Veilstone City Meteorites.

She reappeared in a flashback in [[DP120]].

It was next used in the Gym battle against {{Ash}}, where it was able to confuse both {{AP|Staravia}} and {{AP|Chimchar}} but was unable to defeat them. It eventually fell to Staravia's newly learned {{m|Brave Bird}}.

It was the first Pokémon used by Maylene during her Gym battle against Ash, where it put up a strong defense against his Staravia despite the type disadvantage. Despite this however Machoke was still defeated by the Starling Pokémon's combination of {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}.

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Maylene Wake Adventures.png|thumb|right|Maylene and her Riolu and Crasher Wake with his Floatzel]]
Maylene is first seen training with her two Pokémon, Meditite and Riolu where she overhears a trio of children planning to challenge her Gym. While jogging around the city she almost gets hit by [[Chimler]]'s Ember (when the trio was testing {{adv|Platinum}}'s newly-earned Zoom Lens). Due to a misunderstanding she assumes that Platinum was one of the kids who planned to challenge her, she then challenges Platinum to a match, adding that Platinum must use Monferno against her. She later battles Platinum in the Veilstone Gym, but is defeated when Platinum uses her skills at playing the slots to help Monferno defeat her Riolu.

She later appears in [[Snowpoint City]], jogging in the cold where Platinum spots her and asks her to take her to the Snowpoint Gym Leader, Candice. She watches the Gym battle between Candice and Platinum and later, along with Candice, joins Platinum on her quest to stop Team Galactic from blowing up [[Lake Acuity]] and capturing the legendary {{p|Uxie}}. Later, at Lake Acuity they are confronted by Team Galactic Commander, Jupiter and despite putting up a good fight, are defeated by her powerful Pokémon and are unable to prevent Uxie from being captured. After being healed they decided to get some training in order to defeat her, Candice calls fellow Gym Leader Byron who then calls and asks Volkner to train them. After some difficulty with their new tutor, they finish their training with him and later at the Spear Pillar, she and Candice fight and defeat Jupiter along with the other Galactic Commanders. She and the other Gym Leaders later fight Team Galactic Leader Cyrus in order to break the Red Chain controlling the legendary Dialga and Palkia and after a tough battle, they are able to break the Chain. However, it turns out the one they broke was the second artificial one that he created.

Later, the Gym Leaders are found unconscious lying in a pile of rubble by Platinum and [[Cynthia]]. After helping them out, Maylene, Candice, and [[Gardenia]] wake up and give Platinum a {{p|Pachirisu}}, a {{p|Froslass}}, and a {{p|Cherrim}}, respectively. Just after, a stray attack fired from the battle between Diamond and Pearl against Dialga and Palkia knocks them unconscious and melts the Poké Balls, preventing Platinum from using her newly gained team members. Later, when the clash between Dialga and Palkia creates a black hole in the sky, Maylene and the other Gym Leaders are nearly sucked into it before being saved by Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. After Cyrus's defeat, Maylene, the other Gym Leaders, and Cyrus are carried by the Sinnoh Pokédex holders so they can be taken to the hospital to heal their injuries.

It is heavily implied that due to her father's gambling habit, Maylene is actually living in poverty as seen when she is jealous of Platinum's wealth and the fact that her father wears shabby clothing along with that every time he appears, his stomach is seen growling. This was revealed to be a fact when she gave Platinum her Pachirisu.

==Trivia==
* Maylene is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} to not appear outside her Gym at least once in the game. She makes several appearances outside of her Gym in {{game|Platinum}}, however, when the player reaches {{rt|217|Sinnoh}}, at the Pokémon Center in [[Snowpoint City]] before beating Candice, and at the [[Battleground]].
** She also appears in Celadon City in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Maylene's Japanese name is shared with that of one of the [[Kimono Girl]]s of [[Ecruteak City]]. That Kimono Girl's name was changed to ''Komomo'' in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, possibly not to conflict with Maylene's Japanese name, as Maylene herself appears in those games.
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being third, Maylene is now fourth in the line-up.
* She is also the only Gym Leader in Sinnoh to have more Pokémon of the opposite gender than of the same gender as her; in the Veilstone Gym, two out of her three Pokémon are male, while at the Battleground, three out of five are.
* Of all of the Trainers that can be fought at the [[Battleground]], Maylene has the strongest Pokémon of any of them. Her Lucario, at level 66, is one level stronger than the rest of the Trainers' strongest Pokémon, as all of the rest are at Lv. 65.
** However Maylene compensates for this, since her strongest Pokémon doesn't hold a [[Sitrus Berry]] unlike the other trainers at the Battleground.
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are the same levels that Pastoria Gym Leader [[Crasher Wake]]'s Pokémon are.
** This is most likely due to the fact that the player can choose to visit Veilstone or Pastoria simultaneously without affecting the progression of the storyline, meaning Wake and Maylene could be battled in either order.
* Maylene's Meditite in [[Pokémon Adventures]] knows {{m|Bullet Punch}}, {{m|Power Swap}}, and {{m|Psycho Cut}}. These moves are impossible to have at the same time in the games.
* Maylene shares some similarities with [[Korrina]]:
** Both are female Gym Leaders who specialize in Fighting-type Pokémon.
** Both are the third Gym Leaders in badge case order in their respective regions.
** Both use a Pokémon with {{m|Fake Out}} as their first Pokémon.
** Both use a {{p|Machoke}} with {{a|Guts}}, {{m|Rock Tomb}} and {{m|Leer}} in battle as their second Pokémon.
*** Both retain this Machoke in a rematch.
** Both use a level 32 {{p|Lucario}} with {{a|Steadfast}} and {{m|Bone Rush}} in battle.
** Both hand out a [[TM]] containing a move with the word "Punch" in its name which has beneficial effects on its user.

'''Maylene''' (Japanese: '''スモモ''' ''Sumomo'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Veilstone City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Veilstone Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Cobble}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She specializes in {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Maylene uses {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon in her battles. Trainers who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Cobble}}, {{TM|60|Drain Punch}}, and are able to use {{m|Fly}} outside of battle. In addition, all Pokémon up to level 40 will obey their Trainer. Maylene is considered a cute little girl, but adults in the town respect her for her power. Maylene's father gambles at the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]. Maylene apparently does not know her own strength, as she is unsure of how she got to be Gym Leader, and seems rather confused by the whole thing.

Later in {{v2|Platinum}}, the player encounters her upon entering {{rt|217|Sinnoh}} where she is apparently {{pkmn|training}} by walking to [[Snowpoint City]]. She does not use {{m|Fly}}—even if she can—so she can train herself. She is also used to the cold, even if she is lightly dressed and barefoot. In Snowpoint's [[Pokémon Center]], she says that she admires [[Candice]] for being so studious and that she will see her later. In the post-game, she can appear at the [[Battleground]], where she and the other Sinnoh Gym Leaders and Trainers can be battled again. After battling her here, she mentions that she believes that being barefoot is healthier than wearing footwear, pointing out that Pokémon go barefoot.

Maylene appears in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} in [[Celadon City]]'s restaurant, having entered what appears to be an eating contest; piles of empty bowls surround her, amazing her onlookers. In addition, she will occasionally participate in the [[Pokéathlon]]'s Supreme Cup in the Power Course with her {{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Meditite}}, and {{p|Machoke}}.

Maylene seems to like to eat a lot, saying how it is so great that she can eat all she wants in both the [[Battleground]] and Celadon City's restaurant, and is apparently able to eat many bowls in one sitting.

===Quotes===
===={{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
'''[[Veilstone Gym]]'''
* Before battle
:''"Hello. I'm pleased to meet you. I'm Maylene, and I'm the [[Gym Leader]]. I don't really know what it means to be strong, or how I got to be the Gym Leader. But I will do the best I can as the Gym Leader. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Oh! But this isn't the end, my friend!"''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I shall admit defeat... You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"...OK. You win. That was a tough loss. I learned a lot from it. Please, accept this Gym Badge."''
:''"Gee, I'm hungry... Oh, sorry, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. <Player>, I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"''

'''{{rt|217|Sinnoh}}''' ({{v2|Platinum}} only) 
:''"Oh, <player>! Um, are you maybe on your way to [[Snowpoint City]]? That's where I'm going, too. If I use {{m|Fly}}, I can get there instantly, but I'm walking for my training. I have no problem with this. I'm used to the cold because I go barefoot and lightly dressed. ...Achoo! Oh, that was nothing. Really, I'm not cold at all. I'll be going now. Please take care!"''

'''[[Snowpoint City]] [[Pokémon Center]]''' (Platinum only) 
:''"Brrr... Oh, hi, <player>! Are you taking the Gym challenge now? I'm hoping to see [[Candice]] soon, but I'm staying put until I warm up again first. Oh, you should know that Candice is a user of {{type|Ice}} Pokémon. I really admire Candice. She's so studious. She wanted to practice against me to learn about the {{t|Fighting}} type. It's because the Ice type matches up badly against the Fighting type."''

'''[[Villa]]'''
:''"...Um, your Villa... Would it be OK if I took a look around?"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, I'm beginning to understand the feelings of Pokémon. It lets me choose moves with much more confidence!"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, my handwriting has improved tenfold! ...Yes. It has absolutely nothing to do with how strong I am as a Gym Leader."''
:''"...You know those [[Accessory|Accessories]] for Pokémon? Would it be funny if someone were to wear those?"'' (to Candice)
:''"...! Th-thank you so much!"'' (to Candice)
:''"What makes a Gym Leader a good one?"'' (to Candice)

'''[[Battleground]]'''
* Before battle
:''"I think it's OK to keep losing to the same Trainer. Battling that person tells me how much my Pokémon and I have changed. That's why I would like to challenge you for a rematch now, <{{Player}}>."'' 
:''"Yes, what is it, <{{Player}}>? Would you maybe like a battle?"'' (If ''No'' was the first answer) 
::'''Yes''': ''"OK! Rei! Oh, that's my bow before a match. <{{Player}}>, I'm throwing everything I have at you!"'' 
::'''No''': ''"Sigh... I braced myself for a battle. This is a little deflating..."''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"This is like back at the Gym, isn't it? I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I'm forced to admit defeat again. You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"I love visiting here. Buck's grandpa cooks for us, and it's all delicious. That's not all! We can eat all we want. Isn't that amazing, <{{Player}}>?"''

'''[[Battleground]]''' (alternate)

==In the anime==
[[File:Maylene anime.png|left|thumb|230px|Maylene in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

Maylene made her first appearance in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.

Prior to the events of the episode Maylene had been challenged by [[Paul]], who brought Pokémon to the Gym that had type-advantages over hers. Worse than that, Maylene felt out of sync with her Pokémon and as a result she suffered an embarrassing defeat, not even managing to knock out a single one of Paul's Pokémon. Afterwards, when she gave him the {{Badge|Cobble}}, he noted how weak she was. As a result Maylene had lost confidence in herself as a Gym Leader, a position she's only held for six months. This, combined with how badly the previous battle went, caused her {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}} and the majority of her Gym assistants to lose faith in her. When {{Ash}} challenged her, she declined, much to the annoyance of Lucario.

Discovering {{an|Dawn}} has similar issues herself (following ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night]]'' and ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'''s contest defeats), Maylene agrees to have a Gym battle with her in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. She managed to defeat Dawn after a hard-fought battle.

She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie. With the decision now hers, Maylene considered Ash to have battled well enough that she awarded him the {{Badge|Cobble}}.

Maylene also appeared in ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]'', helping Ash and {{ashfr}} to stop [[Team Galactic]] from stealing the Veilstone City Meteorites.

She reappeared in a flashback in [[DP120]].

==In the manga==
===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Maylene Wake Adventures.png|thumb|right|Maylene and her Riolu and Crasher Wake with his Floatzel]]
Maylene is first seen training with her two Pokémon, Meditite and Riolu where she overhears a trio of children planning to challenge her Gym. While jogging around the city she almost gets hit by [[Chimler]]'s Ember (when the trio was testing {{adv|Platinum}}'s newly-earned Zoom Lens). Due to a misunderstanding she assumes that Platinum was one of the kids who planned to challenge her, she then challenges Platinum to a match, adding that Platinum must use Monferno against her. She later battles Platinum in the Veilstone Gym, but is defeated when Platinum uses her skills at playing the slots to help Monferno defeat her Riolu.

She later appears in [[Snowpoint City]], jogging in the cold where Platinum spots her and asks her to take her to the Snowpoint Gym Leader, Candice. She watches the Gym battle between Candice and Platinum and later, along with Candice, joins Platinum on her quest to stop Team Galactic from blowing up [[Lake Acuity]] and capturing the legendary {{p|Uxie}}. Later, at Lake Acuity they are confronted by Team Galactic Commander, Jupiter and despite putting up a good fight, are defeated by her powerful Pokémon and are unable to prevent Uxie from being captured. After being healed they decided to get some training in order to defeat her, Candice calls fellow Gym Leader Byron who then calls and asks Volkner to train them. After some difficulty with their new tutor, they finish their training with him and later at the Spear Pillar, she and Candice fight and defeat Jupiter along with the other Galactic Commanders. She and the other Gym Leaders later fight Team Galactic Leader Cyrus in order to break the Red Chain controlling the legendary Dialga and Palkia and after a tough battle, they are able to break the Chain. However, it turns out the one they broke was the second artificial one that he created.

Later, the Gym Leaders are found unconscious lying in a pile of rubble by Platinum and [[Cynthia]]. After helping them out, Maylene, Candice, and [[Gardenia]] wake up and give Platinum a {{p|Pachirisu}}, a {{p|Froslass}}, and a {{p|Cherrim}}, respectively. Just after, a stray attack fired from the battle between Diamond and Pearl against Dialga and Palkia knocks them unconscious and melts the Poké Balls, preventing Platinum from using her newly gained team members. Later, when the clash between Dialga and Palkia creates a black hole in the sky, Maylene and the other Gym Leaders are nearly sucked into it before being saved by Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. After Cyrus's defeat, Maylene, the other Gym Leaders, and Cyrus are carried by the Sinnoh Pokédex holders so they can be taken to the hospital to heal their injuries.

It is heavily implied that due to her father's gambling habit, Maylene is actually living in poverty as seen when she is jealous of Platinum's wealth and the fact that her father wears shabby clothing along with that every time he appears, his stomach is seen growling. This was revealed to be a fact when she gave Platinum her Pachirisu.

==Trivia==
* Maylene is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} to not appear outside her Gym at least once in the game. She makes several appearances outside of her Gym in {{game|Platinum}}, however, when the player reaches {{rt|217|Sinnoh}}, at the Pokémon Center in [[Snowpoint City]] before beating Candice, and at the [[Battleground]].
** She also appears in Celadon City in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Maylene's Japanese name is shared with that of one of the [[Kimono Girl]]s of [[Ecruteak City]]. That Kimono Girl's name was changed to ''Komomo'' in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, possibly not to conflict with Maylene's Japanese name, as Maylene herself appears in those games.
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being third, Maylene is now fourth in the line-up.
* She is also the only Gym Leader in Sinnoh to have more Pokémon of the opposite gender than of the same gender as her; in the Veilstone Gym, two out of her three Pokémon are male, while at the Battleground, three out of five are.
* Of all of the Trainers that can be fought at the [[Battleground]], Maylene has the strongest Pokémon of any of them. Her Lucario, at level 66, is one level stronger than the rest of the Trainers' strongest Pokémon, as all of the rest are at Lv. 65.
** However Maylene compensates for this, since her strongest Pokémon doesn't hold a [[Sitrus Berry]] unlike the other trainers at the Battleground.
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are the same levels that Pastoria Gym Leader [[Crasher Wake]]'s Pokémon are.
** This is most likely due to the fact that the player can choose to visit Veilstone or Pastoria simultaneously without affecting the progression of the storyline, meaning Wake and Maylene could be battled in either order.
* Maylene's Meditite in [[Pokémon Adventures]] knows {{m|Bullet Punch}}, {{m|Power Swap}}, and {{m|Psycho Cut}}. These moves are impossible to have at the same time in the games.
* Maylene shares some similarities with [[Korrina]]:
** Both are female Gym Leaders who specialize in Fighting-type Pokémon
** Both are the third Gym Leaders in badge case order in their respective regions
** Both use a Pokémon with [[Fake Out]] as their first Pokémon
** Both use a [[Machoke]] with [[Guts]], [[Rock Tomb]] and [[Leer]] in battle as their second Pokémon
*** Both retain this Machoke in a rematch
** Both use a level 32 [[Lucario]] with [[Steadfast]] and [[Bone Rush]] in battle
** Both hand out a [[TM]] containing a move with the word "Punch" in its name which has beneficial effects on its user

'''Maylene''' (Japanese: '''スモモ''' ''Sumomo'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Veilstone City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Veilstone Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Cobble}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She specializes in {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Maylene uses {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon in her battles. Trainers who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Cobble}}, {{TM|60|Drain Punch}}, and are able to use {{m|Fly}} outside of battle. In addition, all Pokémon up to level 40 will obey their Trainer. Maylene is considered a cute little girl, but adults in the town respect her for her power. Maylene's father gambles at the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]. Maylene apparently does not know her own strength, as she is unsure of how she got to be Gym Leader, and seems rather confused by the whole thing.

Later in {{v2|Platinum}}, the player encounters her upon entering {{rt|217|Sinnoh}} where she is apparently {{pkmn|training}} by walking to [[Snowpoint City]]. She does not use {{m|Fly}}—even if she can—so she can train herself. She is also used to the cold, even if she is lightly dressed and barefoot. In Snowpoint's [[Pokémon Center]], she says that she admires [[Candice]] for being so studious and that she will see her later. In the post-game, she can appear at the [[Battleground]], where she and the other Sinnoh Gym Leaders and Trainers can be battled again. After battling her here, she mentions that she believes that being barefoot is healthier than wearing footwear, pointing out that Pokémon go barefoot.

Maylene appears in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} in [[Celadon City]]'s restaurant, having entered what appears to be an eating contest; piles of empty bowls surround her, amazing her onlookers. In addition, she will occasionally participate in the [[Pokéathlon]]'s Supreme Cup in the Power Course with her {{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Meditite}}, and {{p|Machoke}}.

Maylene seems to like to eat a lot, saying how it is so great that she can eat all she wants in both the [[Battleground]] and Celadon City's restaurant, and is apparently able to eat many bowls in one sitting.

* Before battle
:''"Hello. I'm pleased to meet you. I'm Maylene, and I'm the [[Gym Leader]]. I don't really know what it means to be strong, or how I got to be the Gym Leader. But I will do the best I can as the Gym Leader. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Oh! But this isn't the end, my friend!"''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I shall admit defeat... You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"...OK. You win. That was a tough loss. I learned a lot from it. Please, accept this Gym Badge."''
:''"Gee, I'm hungry... Oh, sorry, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. <Player>, I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"''

'''{{rt|217|Sinnoh}}''' ({{v2|Platinum}} only) 
:''"Oh, <player>! Um, are you maybe on your way to [[Snowpoint City]]? That's where I'm going, too. If I use {{m|Fly}}, I can get there instantly, but I'm walking for my training. I have no problem with this. I'm used to the cold because I go barefoot and lightly dressed. ...Achoo! Oh, that was nothing. Really, I'm not cold at all. I'll be going now. Please take care!"''

'''[[Snowpoint City]] [[Pokémon Center]]''' (Platinum only) 
:''"Brrr... Oh, hi, <player>! Are you taking the Gym challenge now? I'm hoping to see [[Candice]] soon, but I'm staying put until I warm up again first. Oh, you should know that Candice is a user of {{type|Ice}} Pokémon. I really admire Candice. She's so studious. She wanted to practice against me to learn about the {{t|Fighting}} type. It's because the Ice type matches up badly against the Fighting type."''

'''[[Villa]]'''
:''"...Um, your Villa... Would it be OK if I took a look around?"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, I'm beginning to understand the feelings of Pokémon. It lets me choose moves with much more confidence!"''
:''"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, my handwriting has improved tenfold! ...Yes. It has absolutely nothing to do with how strong I am as a Gym Leader."''
:''"...You know those [[Accessory|Accessories]] for Pokémon? Would it be funny if someone were to wear those?"'' (to Candice)
:''"...! Th-thank you so much!"'' (to Candice)
:''"What makes a Gym Leader a good one?"'' (to Candice)

'''[[Battleground]]'''
* Before battle

:''"Yes, what is it, <{{Player}}>? Would you maybe like a battle?"'' (If ''No'' was the first answer) 
::'''Yes''': ''"OK! Rei! Oh, that's my bow before a match. <{{Player}}>, I'm throwing everything I have at you!"'' 
::'''No''': ''"Sigh... I braced myself for a battle. This is a little deflating..."''

* Last Pokémon at critical health

* Being defeated
:''"I'm forced to admit defeat again. You are much too strong."''

* After being defeated
:''"I love visiting here. Buck's grandpa cooks for us, and it's all delicious. That's not all! We can eat all we want. Isn't that amazing, <{{Player}}>?"''

'''[[Battleground]]''' (alternate)
* Before battle
:''"Being together with Pokémon gave me the strength to keep going. Please, <{{Player}}>, accept my challenge!"'' 
:''"<{{Player}}>! I know I'm being a pest, but please, accept our challenge!" (If ''No'' is the first answer) 
: Yes: ''"OK, here we come, <{{Player}}>!"'' 
: No: ''"OK! Got it! We'll train much harder so we can battle with you, <{{Player}}>!"''

* During battle
:''"This is like back at the Gym, isn't it? I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"''

* Being defeated
:''"I'm forced to admit defeat again. You are much too strong."''

==In the anime==
[[File:Maylene anime.png|left|thumb|230px|Maylene in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

Maylene made her first appearance in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.

Prior to the events of the episode Maylene had been challenged by [[Paul]], who brought Pokémon to the Gym that had type-advantages over hers. Worse than that, Maylene felt out of sync with her Pokémon and as a result she suffered an embarrassing defeat, not even managing to knock out a single one of Paul's Pokémon. Afterwards, when she gave him the {{Badge|Cobble}}, he noted how weak she was. As a result Maylene had lost confidence in herself as a Gym Leader, a position she's only held for six months. This, combined with how badly the previous battle went, caused her {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}} and the majority of her Gym assistants to lose faith in her. When {{Ash}} challenged her, she declined, much to the annoyance of Lucario.

Discovering {{an|Dawn}} has similar issues herself (following ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night]]'' and ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'''s contest defeats), Maylene agrees to have a Gym battle with her in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. She managed to defeat Dawn after a hard-fought battle.

She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie. With the decision now hers, Maylene considered Ash to have battled well enough that she awarded him the {{Badge|Cobble}}.

Maylene also appeared in ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]'', helping Ash and {{ashfr}} to stop [[Team Galactic]] from stealing the Veilstone City Meteorites.

She reappeared in a flashback in [[DP120]].

It was next used in the Gym battle against {{Ash}}, where it was able to confuse both {{AP|Staravia}} and {{AP|Chimchar}} but was unable to defeat them. It eventually fell to Staravia's newly learned {{m|Brave Bird}}.

It was the first Pokémon used by Maylene during her Gym battle against Ash, where it put up a strong defense against his Staravia despite the type disadvantage. Despite this however Machoke was still defeated by the Starling Pokémon's combination of {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}.

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Maylene Wake Adventures.png|thumb|right|Maylene and her Riolu and Crasher Wake with his Floatzel]]
Maylene is first seen training with her two Pokémon, Meditite and Riolu where she overhears a trio of children planning to challenge her Gym. While jogging around the city she almost gets hit by [[Chimler]]'s Ember (when the trio was testing {{adv|Platinum}}'s newly-earned Zoom Lens). Due to a misunderstanding she assumes that Platinum was one of the kids who planned to challenge her, she then challenges Platinum to a match, adding that Platinum must use Monferno against her. She later battles Platinum in the Veilstone Gym, but is defeated when Platinum uses her skills at playing the slots to help Monferno defeat her Riolu.

She later appears in [[Snowpoint City]], jogging in the cold where Platinum spots her and asks her to take her to the Snowpoint Gym Leader, Candice. She watches the Gym battle between Candice and Platinum and later, along with Candice, joins Platinum on her quest to stop Team Galactic from blowing up [[Lake Acuity]] and capturing the legendary {{p|Uxie}}. Later, at Lake Acuity they are confronted by Team Galactic Commander, Jupiter and despite putting up a good fight, are defeated by her powerful Pokémon and are unable to prevent Uxie from being captured. After being healed they decided to get some training in order to defeat her, Candice calls fellow Gym Leader Byron who then calls and asks Volkner to train them. After some difficulty with their new tutor, they finish their training with him and later at the Spear Pillar, she and Candice fight and defeat Jupiter along with the other Galactic Commanders. She and the other Gym Leaders later fight Team Galactic Leader Cyrus in order to break the Red Chain controlling the legendary Dialga and Palkia and after a tough battle, they are able to break the Chain. However, it turns out the one they broke was the second artificial one that he created.

Later, the Gym Leaders are found unconscious lying in a pile of rubble by Platinum and [[Cynthia]]. After helping them out, Maylene, Candice, and [[Gardenia]] wake up and give Platinum a {{p|Pachirisu}}, a {{p|Froslass}}, and a {{p|Cherrim}}, respectively. Just after, a stray attack fired from the battle between Diamond and Pearl against Dialga and Palkia knocks them unconscious and melts the Poké Balls, preventing Platinum from using her newly gained team members. Later, when the clash between Dialga and Palkia creates a black hole in the sky, Maylene and the other Gym Leaders are nearly sucked into it before being saved by Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. After Cyrus's defeat, Maylene, the other Gym Leaders, and Cyrus are carried by the Sinnoh Pokédex holders so they can be taken to the hospital to heal their injuries.

It is heavily implied that due to her father's gambling habit, Maylene is actually living in poverty as seen when she is jealous of Platinum's wealth and the fact that her father wears shabby clothing along with that every time he appears, his stomach is seen growling. This was revealed to be a fact when she gave Platinum her Pachirisu.

Maylene has a brief cameo in ''[[DPA07|Dialga's Secret Keys!!]]'' where she battled Hareta and gave him the {{Badge|Cobble}} after her Machoke got defeated by {{TP|Hareta|Piplup}}. At the end of the chapter, she is seen complaining about only appearing in one panel. Later, she was called in by [[Byron]] to go to Lake Valor in order to help Hareta take out Team Galactic.

Maylene makes an appearance in a flashback in [[PMDP07]] of the {{OBP|Pocket Monsters DP|Kosaku Anakubo}} manga.

==In the TCG==
This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring Maylene or her Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].

==Trivia==
* Maylene is the only Sinnoh Gym Leader in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} to not appear outside her Gym at least once in the game. She makes several appearances outside of her Gym in {{game|Platinum}}, however, when the player reaches {{rt|217|Sinnoh}}, at the Pokémon Center in [[Snowpoint City]] before beating Candice, and at the [[Battleground]].
** She also appears in Celadon City in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Maylene's Japanese name is shared with that of one of the [[Kimono Girl]]s of [[Ecruteak City]]. That Kimono Girl's name was changed to ''Komomo'' in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, possibly not to conflict with Maylene's Japanese name, as Maylene herself appears in those games.
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being third, Maylene is now fourth in the line-up.
* She is also the only Gym Leader in Sinnoh to have more Pokémon of the opposite gender than of the same gender as her; in the Veilstone Gym, two out of her three Pokémon are male, while at the Battleground, three out of five are.
* Of all of the Trainers that can be fought at the [[Battleground]], Maylene has the strongest Pokémon of any of them. Her Lucario, at level 66, is one level stronger than the rest of the Trainers' strongest Pokémon, as all of the rest are at Lv. 65.
** However Maylene compensates for this, since her strongest Pokémon doesn't hold a [[Sitrus Berry]] unlike the other trainers at the Battleground.
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are the same levels that Pastoria Gym Leader [[Crasher Wake]]'s Pokémon are.
** This is most likely due to the fact that the player can choose to visit Veilstone or Pastoria simultaneously without affecting the progression of the storyline, meaning Wake and Maylene could be battled in either order.
* Maylene's Meditite in [[Pokémon Adventures]] knows {{m|Bullet Punch}}, {{m|Power Swap}}, and {{m|Psycho Cut}}. These moves are impossible to have at the same time in the games.
* Maylene shares some similarities with [[Korrina]]:
** Both are female Gym Leaders who specialize in Fighting-type Pokémon
** Both are the third Gym Leaders in badge case order in their respective regions
** Both use a two-stage Pokémon with [[Fake Out]] as their first Pokémon
** Both use a [[Machoke]] with [[Guts]], [[Rock Tomb]] and [[Leer]] in battle as their second Pokémon
*** Both retain this Machoke in a rematch
** Both use a level 32 Pokémon which had unique type combinations upon their respective debuts as their third Pokémon
*** Both use a level 32 [[Lucario]] with [[Steadfast]] and [[Bone Rush]] in battle
** Both hand out a [[TM]] containing a move containing the word "Punch" in its name which has beneficial effects on its user
*** Each of their Pokémon besides their respective Machoke know this move

Talk:Steven Stone

2015-06-07T23:31:23Z

JoeIsCool: Implied age beyond ORAS

did Pokenai give an age estimation for him? [[User:Mooites|Mooites]] 03:22, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

== Image ==

The image in the Character Infobox is faded. Can someone replace it? --[[User:Politoed666|ニョロトノ]][[User talk:Politoed666|''666'']] 01:29, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
:If people want, I can try to change the brightness and contrast balance to try to optimize the picture...it STILL looks faded... [[User:TruePikachu|--TruePikachu]] 03:21, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
::That's not going to help that failure of an image, and please look at the dates on comments before you respond. The comment you replied to is over a year old, and the image has been altered since then. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 03:30, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

== Pokémon Emerald dialog mistake ==

As mentioned in the trivia, Steven mistakenly says Sootopolis Space Center instead of Mossdeep Space Center. But is this from the Japanese version or did Nintendo of America screwed up? [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 11:39, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

== Emerald Meteor Falls Battle ==

I hope someone answer this, when you battle with him, can you battle him another time. Like, I battle him twice?--[[User:Ruixiang95|Ruixiang95]] 13:35, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
:I don't think so. I'm pretty sure you can only fight him once. I may be wrong, however. [[User:Takoto|~~Takoto]] - [[User_talk:Takoto|サソデイ]] 13:43, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

== In Johto ==

Steven in Johto (HGSS) must be added.
He is giving away Torchic, Mudkip, Treecko to Hibiki/Kotone

== Emerald Tag Battle ==

I'll be approaching this in my file soon, so let me ask ahead of time, would his Pokemon in Emerald's tag battle against Team Magma be alright to add? [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] 19:22, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

::Oh sorry, didn't see it there. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] 19:33, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
IIRC, it's the only tag battle where you can use items on your ''partner's'' Pokémon. [[User:KinCryos|KinCryos]] 20:57, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Is his ID Number random or is it always 61226? [[User:Circus ninja536|Circus ninja536]] 10:49, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
:I think it is always 61226 [[User:Wexdarn|Wexdarn]] 21:08, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

I beat Red and caught Latias but he won't appear in Silph Co. :\ --[[User:The Great Butler|The Great Butler]] 03:21, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
:I had the same problem, and I currently have the same problem with getting beldum. I've met all the requirements, and he's not appearing. I think there may be more to it than all those, mabye a certain time or day he's in there. [[User:S Ninja D|S Ninja D]] 20:07, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

to get him to appear to trade for beldum u have to find him at the pewter museum first after beating red[[User:Mulhollinman|Mulhollinman]] 00:58, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

== Add a quote from HGSS? ==
When you encounter Steven in HGSS, he mentoins that he couldn't have met you before, since all of the trainers that battle with him seem to look the same. Was wondering if this would be worthy of mentioning; it seemed interesting to me, at least, that he acknowledged the fact that all of us look the same in-game. [[User:Vhazhiphor|Vhazhiphor]] 06:27, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
:Rather than anything meta-related, I think it's more evidence of his aloofness - this, along with at the end of the Enigma Crystal event when he reveals that ''he hasn't even bothered to learn your name''. However, this could just be me fanwanking over the tiniest bits of information about my favorite character, so I'll just put that out there and let other, less biased people be the judge. :V [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 15:02, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

== NPC of Kanto? ==

In the tag listing the NPCs of Kanto and the Sevii Islands it includes Steven Stone. Shouldn't he be in NPCs of Hoenn? Because I'm sure he never appears in FRLG. [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 16:13, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
:Have played HGSS?--[[User:Dennou Zenshi|でんのう]] ☢ [[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|'''Z'''えんし]] 16:16, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
::Oh, yeah, forgot about that. But they could make it a little bit clearer. [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 20:21, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

== HG/SS ==

Steven still considers himself the Champion in these games. So would Brendan/May have already beaten him (I guess suggested by what he says?) since Gen II should take place afterwards, and where would Wallace and Emerald be in all of this?{{unsigned|ZeroExalted}}

He could've easily beaten it again in these three years [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 22:26, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

== May/Brendan theme instead of the Champion theme ==

Shouldn't it be put as trivia that when battled in Emerald , the May/Brendan theme is played instead of the Champion or the trainer theme ?? [[User:Pokemon94|Pokemon94]] 17:14, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

== HG/SS pokemon ==

Shouldn't it also be added that Steven has a Treecko, Torchic, and Mudkip in his party with Beldum? We know what the moves are, since they are all level 5. In addition, should Forretress be added too, but along with a note saying that the player has to trade it? --[[User:Fimbulwinter2012|☆'''FiMbUlWiNtEr2O|2'''☆]] 04:32, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

== Steven's Beldum ==

Steven has everytime he meets the player a Beldum or one of his evolutionary family on his teem. In Ruby and Saphire he hass a Matang that evolves in a Metagross. Later he gifes the player a Beldum in Mosdeep City. In HGSS he trades his Beldum for a Forretres. Can this added to the Trivia? --[[User:Nazirbashir|Nazirbashir]] 15:01, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
:Currently, nothing can be added to the trivia. And besides, I don't think that would make good trivia; it's really just two different occurrences, neither of them that unusual. Metagross is his signature Pokémon, and he gives/trades away Beldum. That's not trivia, it's just the way he rolls. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 17:05, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

== Gen 5 refrence? ==

My friend told me after you defeat Steven stone in heartgold and soulsilver that he says "Curse you to a gen five pokemon" is this true {{unsigned|King of cyndaquil}}
:100% false; the player can't even battle against him in HGSS...--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 18:31, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
::Also please remember to sign all talk comments with 4 tides King of cyndaquil. [[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]] 18:42, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

== Former Champion ==

The article says "He states he was the Pokémon Champion of Hoenn at some point". Could someone provide that line of dialogue and where he says it? [[User:Pokemega32|Pokemega32]] 21:48, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
:Did you try reading the page? [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 02:36, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
::Yes. Did you? There is no line in the dialogue included that gives that information. [[User:Pokemega32|Pokemega32]] 11:16, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
:::Exactly, what he means is, where specifically where did you pull this information from? Your quote implies that he isn't Champion anymore, but that's simply not stated anywhere on the page.

::::Uh, what? Under the Generation III heading:

::::"He states he was the Pokémon Champion of Hoenn at some point, but now he spends his life traveling through the region."

::::And we know he isn't Champion in Emerald. Wallace being Champion kind of makes that blatant. What I'm asking is where in the game does he say he ''used'' to be Champion? [[User:Pokemega32|Pokemega32]] 12:37, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
:::::I read over all of our recorded quotes for Steven and didn't find any such statement. Unless there's one we're missing, it shouldn't be on the article. Thanks for pointing it out.

== Skarmory ==

I'm in the middle of the Tag Battle and his Skarmory had Sturdy instead of Keen Eye. Could someone edit that? '''''[[Shadow Sneak (move)|Sneaking]] from page to page... It's the page-editing purple ghost... [[User:Gengarzilla|Gengar]][[User talk:Gengarzilla|zilla!]]''''' 21:59, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

== More dialogue and Beldum information ==

I can't edit the article so I will place it here for anyone to paste. This happens after you defeat the Elite 4 in Ruby & Sapphire and Emerald:

=====Steven's house=====
:''"... ... ... ... ... ..."''
:''"To <player>..."''
:''"I've decided to do a little soul-searching and train on the road. I don't plan to return home for some time."''
:''"I have a favor to ask of you."''
:''"I want you to take the POKé BALL on the desk. Inside it is a BELDUM, my favorite POKéMON."''
:''"I'm counting on you."''
:''"May our paths cross again someday."''
:''"STEVEN STONE"''

Steven types with very short lines that does not share the same text block, that's why I arranged the lines like that.

The Pokémon in the table is a level 5 unnamed Beldum (which the player can name), whose only move is Take Down and carries no item neither ribbon. States that was met at Mossdeep City. Nature and ID are random. The OT is the player and not Steven. [[User:LurKasumi|LurKasumi]] 10:54, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
:Thanks for the information; I've added the note's quote to the article (to the best of my ability). As for the gift Beldum that Steven leaves for the player, I had planned to use the template/infobox that is currently used for his trade in HGSS, but I think that [[Gift Pokémon]] would need a slightly different (although very similar) template. [[User:Fenyx4|Fenyx4]] ([[User talk:Fenyx4|talk]]) 23:11, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

== Overworld sprite. ==

Steven's gen V overworld sprite is stated to be the same as his gen IV overworld sprite. But I'm sure he's got a different new one. Could anyone change this? [[User:Nickvang|Nickvang]] ([[User talk:Nickvang|talk]]) 11:13, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

==We Need Proof==
How do we know that Steven will be the Champion in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. For all we know, it could be Wallace. We need some proof. And I KNOW these are remakes of Ruby and Sapphire, so Steven COULD be the Champion. But this takes place in "a whole new world", so don't blame me if you see Wallace as the Champion in the remakes. I'm hoping for Wallace as the Champion, because I really want to battle Juan, and they don't sell Emerald anymore except on online auction websites. Crum Mum 21:56, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
:http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/characters/the-pokemon-league/champion-steven

Oh. :( I hope Juan appears in the game anyway. After all, it is a remake. Did you ever fight someone in a game that was a remake but didn't appear in the original? If so, maybe I will battle Juan. Crum Mum 16:36, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

== Mossdeep Space Center Multi Battle Pokémon ==

How many Pokémon does Steven use in ORAS during the Multi Battle at the Space Center? I've only seen him using Skarmory and Aggron, but does he use any other of his Pokémon? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:16, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Since I had some trouble with this battle, I can confirm that Steven sends out Claydol if Aggron is KO'd. -- [[User:AmaranthineChaos|AmaranthineChaos]] ([[User talk:AmaranthineChaos|talk]]) 14:20, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

== Canon age ==

I've seen screencaps of his age being confirmed as 25 in ORAS, but have yet to trigger the event myself. All I know is that it's in the President's Room at Devon Corp - anyone know how to trigger it so we can add it to the quotes section? --[[User:Burners|Burners]] ([[User talk:Burners|talk]]) 04:27, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

== Mumu ==

In [[PAORAS01]], I saw Steven with {{adv|Ruby}}'s {{p|Swampert}}, [[Mumu]], for a bit while Ruby was off to [[Southern Island]] at the time and commanded him to use {{m|Hydro Cannon}} while {{adv|Sapphire}} and {{adv|Emerald}} commanded their starters to use the ultimate moves. Should we add Mumu as a temporary Pokémon under Steven's list of Pokémon in Pokémon Adventures? [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 06:07, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

==New English voice actor?==
So, CN released the dub versions of the mega evolution shorts http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/# and correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems they gave him a different actor than the trailer. -- [[User:AmaranthineChaos|AmaranthineChaos]] ([[User talk:AmaranthineChaos|talk]]) 11:20, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

I think you're right (and it wouldn't be the first time there was a VA switch between game promo animations and the main anime), but we won't know for sure until we see the credits of the special on Saturday. It sounds like Wayne Grayson to me, but I'd hold back on any edits until the episode airs. [[User:Burners|Burners]] ([[User talk:Burners|talk]]) 18:24, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Looks like Andrew Paull returned for this role. Will add it to SS031's page as there's no need to edit anything here. --[[User:AmaranthineChaos|AmaranthineChaos]] ([[User talk:AmaranthineChaos|talk]]) 19:43, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

http://m.imgur.com/b5kNUlG That's a screenshot I took of the ending credits to the special which confirms that Andrew Paull voiced Steven again. --[[User:AmaranthineChaos|AmaranthineChaos]] ([[User talk:AmaranthineChaos|talk]]) 12:13, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
:Those are the credits which only tell us which actor was involved in the episode, not who voiced who. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 12:24, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Even so, I've re-watched the AG episode and the special and they both sound the same in a couple of parts.

== Aron im Mega Special 2 ==

Stevens Aron was really in Mega Evo Special 2? --[[User:Altruis|Altruis]] [[User talk:Altruis|''でんき'']] 14:49, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

It... Kind of was. It showed up for two seconds while pushing a hunk of stone in the background before Steven showed Lysandre his piece of the wood relic, but he didn't take ownership of or acknowledge it. So it's implied that it's his, but not stated outright. That being said, should we add it to the page? --[[User:Burners|Burners]] ([[User talk:Burners|talk]]) 06:50, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

== Change the Age section? ==

Now that we know his age is 25 in ORAS, and ORAS replaces RSE in the timeline, can we say that he's 28 in HGSS and 30+ in B2W2, like we did with Red? --[[User:JoeIsCool|JoeIsCool]] ([[Special:Random|I refuse to be]] [[Special:MyTalk|communicated with!]]) 23:30, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

'''Magnemite''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コイル''' ''Coil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} Pokémon, and prior to [[Generation II]], a pure {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Magneton}} starting at [[level]] 30, which evolves into {{p|Magnezone}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]], [[Chargestone Cave]], [[Kalos Route 13]], or [[New Mauville]].

==Biology==
Magnemite is a seemingly robotic life form that has a gray, spherical metal body with horseshoe magnets on each side and a single, large eye. It has three {{wp|Phillips head}} screws on its body: two near the bottom of its body, and the other on top of its head and looks similar to an antenna. The two bottom screws serve no noticeable purpose, although they may be its feet as the Pokédex identifies a footprint similar to that of the screw's head. Even though Magnemite and its evolved forms are mechanical creatures, [[EP101|the anime has shown]] that it has emotions and a way of reproducing. [[EP195|It has even exhibited]] the need to eat, although its main form of nutrients is electrical currents. It is commonly found in locations such as {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|power plants or caves}} with a strong magnetic field. Despite its modern, artificial appearance, [[a:File:Neo Premium File 2.jpg|Magnemite has been depicted in carvings]] discovered at the [[Ruins of Alph]], and has been present in [[AZ]]'s retelling of the Kalos war, indicating it has existed for at least 3,000 years.

The magnetic units on Magnemite's body create electromagnetic waves that allow it to defy gravity and can potentially disrupt electrical equipment. Magnemite is not known to be unnecessarily aggressive, but may approach Trainers with little notice. It can be attracted to anything emitting electricity or a magnetic field, including gadgets such as a [[Pokétch]]. [[EP030|It has even been shown]] to be attracted to electric Pokémon producing such fields. In the care of a Trainer, it can be a devoted fighter. However, [[EP195|it has been demonstrated that]] it may be deterred unless a strong bond is formed with its Trainer. If a wild Magnemite is approached, [[Escape#Wild Pokémon|it may simply flee]] on rare occasions, as Magnemite do not care for interaction. However, if attacked, it will start retaliation with non-damaging moves.

==In the anime==
[[File:Clemont Magnemite.png|thumb|210px|Magnemite in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Magnemite first appeared in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}} were in [[Gringey City]] while the power went out. When they were looking around for the cause of the power outage, a lone Magnemite showed up and was feeling attracted to [[Ash's Pikachu]], who had a cold. When a group of {{p|Grimer}} and its {{AP|Muk}} leader were chasing Ash and his friends, a group of Magnemite and {{p|Magneton}} helped to fight them off.

In ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', Ash, {{an|Misty}} and {{Tracey}} met a man named {{an|Ethan}} who used Magnemite to harness electrical energy from bolts of lightning during thunderstorms and then the electrical energy would be given to towns that were without power. Magnemite #6 evolved into a Magneton to save Ash and Pikachu from {{TRT}}.

A Magnemite belonging to the [[Olivine City]] Gym Leader, [[Jasmine]], makes its debut in ''[[EP208|Fight for the Light!]]'' riding on Jasmine's shoulder through the whole episode. It is later used in her Gym Battle with Ash in ''[[EP224|Nerves of Steelix!]]'', sending it out against Ash's Pikachu.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Magnemite was originally known as "Coil", from its Japanese name.
* Magnemite, along with its evolution {{p|Magneton}}, were pure Electric-type Pokémon in Generation I, but became dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} in Generation II. This makes them the first Pokémon to ever change typing.
* As of Generation II, no other Pokémon have the [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|the same type combination]] as Magnemite and Magneton.
* Magnemite is the first Steel-type Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.
* Despite most of Magnemite's Pokédex entries saying they are able to float through the air by employing powerful electromagnetic waves or even anti-gravity, Magnemite does not have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, and so they are still affected by {{m|Earthquake}} or other Ground-type moves. Ironically, this makes them doubly-weak to those moves. However, as of [[Generation IV]], Magnemite can learn {{m|Magnet Rise}}, which simulates Levitate for five turns.
* Magnezone and its evolutionary line have eleven resistances and one immunity, making them and the {{p|Honedge|Honedge}} {{p|Doublade|evolutionary}} {{p|Aegislash|line}} the most resistant Pokémon to date, as no other Pokémon have a higher total amount of resistances and immunities. With the addition of {{m|Magnet Rise}}, which makes them immune to {{type|Ground}} attacks for five turns, their only double weakness is negated.
* Due to their inclusion in Platinum's extended Sinnoh Pokédex and the Unova Pokédex in Black 2 and White 2, Magnemite and Magneton have appeared in every regional Pokédex.
* Magnemite and its evolution Magneton are two of the few Pokémon that had their [[cry]] changed slightly in [[Generation III]]. This was due to Generation III utilizing a better sound effects game engine and [[Game Boy Advance|newer game system]].
* Magnemite and its evolutions are the only dual-type {{t|Electric}} Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line.
* {{g|Snap}} is the only form of a Pokémon canon that shows two Magnemite bonding, similar to a Magneton. However, when a picture is taken, they are still called Magnemite.
** {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team}} also showed this, but it was stated to be a failed evolution, due to the lack of a third Magnemite.
* In [[Generation V]], Magnemite was the most traded Pokémon on the [[GTS]]. This is probably due to what is known as the Magnemite chain/coil: a scheme by which players could increase the number of visitors to their [[Join Avenue]] in {{2v2|Black|White|2}} by trading Magnemite on the GTS. The scheme originated with Japanese players and became popular worldwide.

===Origin===
Magnemite seems to be based on a {{wp|magnet}}. It may also be based on the objectification of {{wp|electromagnetism}}, one of the four {{wp|fundamental interactions}} of nature.

====Name origin====
Magnemite may be a play on ''{{wp|magnetite}}''. It may also be a combination of ''magnet'' or ''magnetite'' and ''mite'', referring to its small size.

Coil is literally ''coil'', perhaps referring to the fact that a coil with electric current generates a magnetic field.

{{spoilers}}

==Blurb==

Ash has reached Fennel Valley at last, where he plans to challenge Brandon to an official battle—but Brandon won't be back until tomorrow! Instead, our hero is welcomed by an enthusiastic Nurse Joy. This Nurse Joy loves Pokémon battles and Contests, and she even offers to help Ash train. Her Chansey may look sweet, but once its nurse's hat comes off, so do the gloves! Chansey quickly outpowers Ash's Corphish, teaching Ash a lesson about battle strategy that doesn't make him too happy.

Later, Ash goes out to visit Brandon, who is still busy searching for a very rare Pokémon. Brandon tells Ash that he intends to use Registeel in their official battle, so Ash decides to call in some help from back home. When the battle starts the next day, Ash unveils his secret weapon: his old friend Torkoal!

Ash intends to counter Brandon's Registeel with Torkoal's Fire-type advantage and its latest move, Heat Wave! However, it takes more than just a new move to stop Brandon's Registeel. Even though Ash uses his usual creative strategies, Brandon's Registeel wins the day with its devastating Zap Cannon attacks and the Lock-On move that makes sure it doesn't miss! Refusing to give up, Ash promises to battle Brandon again. But after two losses to the Pyramid King, can he figure out a winning strategy and complete this final Battle Frontier challenge?

==Plot==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have finally arrived at [[Fennel Valley]], the new location of the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pyramid}}. Ash is psyched up for his battle against {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and determined to be crowned the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.

As they approach the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pyramid}}, they find [[Scott]] waiting for them with [[Nurse Joy]]. Joy is excited to see Ash and runs up to him like a crazed fan, asking him to sign the photo album she has containing pictures from all his major battles. Scott explains that this Nurse Joy is a huge fan of [[Pokémon battle]]s and [[Pokémon Contest]]s, as she gets out another album dedicated to {{an|May}} which she asks her to sign. {{an|Brock}} is slightly annoyed at this and tries to get Nurse Joy's attention but is pulled away by [[Max]].

Scott explains to Ash that {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} is currently busy at the ruins and can't battle yet, leaving Ash disappointed. Nurse Joy says that her [[Pokémon Center]] is nearby and they can all go there to rest before Brandon gets back. When they get there, Nurse Joy shows the gang around all the facilities that the Pokémon Center has, including an exercise room, a Contest Hall, hot springs, as well as a battle field.

In preparation for his re-match with Brandon, Ash asks May to battle him as a warm up. However, May is desperate to try out the hot springs so Nurse Joy offers to battle him instead. Nurse Joy removes her Nurse's hat which causes her to have a change in persona. Meanwhile {{TRT}}, who are exhausted from following Ash and his friends, are now arguing about which way they should have gone. {{MTR}} hears something and they crouch behind a bush to see Ash and Joy squaring off for their battle. As Brock says that he'll act as the referee, {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}} removes her nurse's hat, causing her to have a similar change in persona to Joy.

May remarks at how differently the two of them are acting as Ash sends out {{AP|Corphish}}. Ash tells Corphish to use {{m|Crabhammer}} and the attack hits Chansey on the head, but Max notices that is doesn't seem to have had much effect. Joy then has Chansey use {{m|Double Slap}}, the attack hits and causes much more damage than Corphish's attack did. As Joy is enjoying the thrill of battle, Ash tells Corphish to use {{m|Vice Grip}}, but Joy counters by having Chansey use {{m|Dynamic Punch}}. The attack knocks Corphish back and Ash tells it to use {{m|Bubble Beam}}, but Chansey stands its ground. Joy then has Chansey use {{m|Double-Edge}} and it slams into Corphish, knocking it to the ground. Corphish hangs in there and Ash has it use Crabhammer again, and Joy has Chansey charge up a {{m|Solar Beam}}. Corphish manages to lands multiple Crabhammers but Chansey fires the attack, which send Corphish flying and [[fainting|knocking it out]].

Joy makes a sort of victory speech before she and Chansey return each other's Nurse hats, removing their battle personas, and rushing off with Corphish on a stretcher. As the gang comment on how different this Nurse Joy is from all the others, {{TRT}} decide to steal Chansey with Meowth having another one of his [[Boss fantasy|wild fantasies]] of how they will impress {{an|Giovanni}}.

Back at the Pokémon Center, May and Max are wondering what Ash will do in his battle with Brandon after mentioning how he lost to him last time. May says that his battle with Chansey proves that you can't match power with power. As Brock says he needs to try to turn this defeat into something positive, Nurse Joy comes out and says Corphish will be fine by tomorrow.

Just then, Chansey spots what looks like a {{p|Blissey}}, but is actually {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} in [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguise]]. Chansey goes to investigate and is attacked by Team Rocket who tie it up and run off. As they make their getaway, they wonder why Chansey doesn't fight back. As they continue to run, the wind knocks its Nurses' hat off which lands on Jessie's head, reviving Chansey's battle persona and it breaks free. Nurse Joy and the gang arrive and Joy tells Chansey to use Solar Beam, and the attack sends Team Rocket blasting off. Jessie notices the Nurse's hat and throws it away, and it lands on Chansey's head, calming it.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Brock is grooming Chansey whilst Nurse Joy watches. In the background May comments that Ash and Brock are working really hard to achieve their dreams but she doesn't know what to do next. Inside the Fennel Valley ruins, Brandon is staring at an ancient tablet and is trying to figure out how to unlock its secret. Just as he realizes what to do Ash runs up to him. Ash is curious as to how his search is going and Brandon shows him by rearranging the symbols on the tablet to unlock a riddle that will guide him to the sealed chamber, and the location of a special {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Brandon says he will leave after he and Ash have had their battle, but reminds him not to get carried away as this is what allowed the [[King of Pokélantis]] to possess him in their [[AG178|last battle]]. Brandon asks Ash if he wants to know what Pokémon he will be using in their battle, and Ash says he does want to know. Brandon says he will be using his {{DL|Brandon's legendary golems|Registeel}}.

At the video-phone in the Pokémon Center, Ash is talking to {{an|Professor Oak}} about his upcoming battle and what Pokémon he should use. As Registeel is a {{type|Steel}} Brock says that any {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Ground}} or {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon would be a good choice. Ash makes his choice and he transfers {{AP|Aipom}} to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]]. Professor Oak tells him that the Pokémon he has chosen has learned a new [[move]] recently so it will be good to try out that move in battle. As Ash prepares for his battle, Aipom is confused when it is released from its [[Poké Ball]] and promptly attacks the Professor.

Just before the battle we find Ash has been doing some last minute training with his chosen Pokémon in order to try out its new move. Now inside the Battle Pyramid, the two Trainers face-off. The referee says that it will be a one-on-one battle. Brandon sends out his Registeel and Ash sends out his {{AP|Torkoal}}. Max remarks how Ash has the type advantage and Scott says how Ash is playing it by the book.

The referee starts the match with Ash telling Torkoal to start with {{m|Flamethrower}}. The attack hits its mark and Brandon has his Registeel counter with {{m|Metal Claw}}. Ash tells Torkoal to dodge and use {{m|Body Slam}} which it does, knocking Registeel over. Ash compliments Torkoal and Scott remarks how well Ash is doing. Brandon tells Registeel to use {{m|Zap Cannon}} and Ash counters with Flamethrower. The two attacks collide creating an explosion. Brandon has Registeel use {{m|Lock-On}} and then Zap Cannon and Ash tells Torkoal to use {{m|Iron Defense}}. The attack hits and manages to {{status|paralysis|paralyze}} Torkoal but the damage is reduced due to Iron Defense. Ash has Torkoal use Body Slam and Registeel tries to counter with Metal Claw. However, before it can attack the paralyzing sparks on Torkoal spread to Registeel and immobilize Registeel and the attack fails. Brandon compliments Ash on his strategy but says he is overconfident, and then orders Registeel to throw Torkoal. It does so but Ash counters by having Torkoal use the wall to re-direct another Body Slam.

Brandon says he is impressed but now wants Ash to throw everything at him. Ash tells Torkoal to use {{m|Heat Wave}}, the new attack that it learned at Professor Oak's Lab. Brandon has Registeel break free from the attack and Ash has Torkoal send another Flamethrower at it. Brandon tells Registeel to use {{m|Sandstorm}} which blocks the attack and traps Torkoal in the vortex. Brandon has Registeel use another Sandstorm but Ash orders Torkoal to counter with Heat Wave. Pushing the Sandstorm back, Torkoal manages to trap Registeel. Registeel uses another Zap Cannon but Torkoal dodges it and, under Ash's command, uses the power of the Sandstorm to strengthen its Body Slam. The attack hits but Registeel holds on and uses Lock-On followed by another Zap Cannon. The vortex charges up the attack and the resulting explosion destroys the blazing Sandstorm. The smoke clears and both Torkoal and Registeel are still standing. But Torkoal falls down and Ash has lost again.

Brandon says that he fought well and he will be ready once Ash and his Pokémon learn to fight as one. Outside, Brandon is about to set off to find the sealed chamber and the special Pokémon that he has been searching for. He says Ash can challenge him again when he returns.

The episode ends with Brandon leaving as Ash prepares to train for [[AG189|his rematch]] with Brandon.

==Major events==
* [[Ash's Aipom]] is sent to {{an|Professor Oak}} in exchange for his {{AP|Torkoal}}, which is revealed to have learned {{m|Heat Wave}}.

JoeIsCool: /* Article title */

== Is she? ==

Is she the same person from the games? The one you give the old charm to? Either way, I think something should be noted. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 03:18, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:Cynthia's grandmother in the game AND anime...why don't you add it, your grammars probably way better.--[[Bulbapedia:Project Custom Sprite|☆]][[User:Tavisource|Tavis]][[User talk:Tavisource|ource]] 03:30, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

== Suggestion ==

What do you guys think about moving this page to "Cynthia's grandmother"? Because in the games she wasn't given a name and was also not a professor. Its only the anime that made her like that. Then we could have different sections of the anime and games and only mention Karashina in the anime section. That is if someone can add info on the games. [[User:Jmath|'''Jm''']][[User talk:Jmath|'''a''']][[Special:Contributions/Jmath|'''th''']] 14:11, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:I agree with Jmath! We should either move the page to "Cynthia's grandmother" (because it's the anime which gave him such name and status) or split the articles (Karashina and Unnamed "Cynthia's grandmother" from games and mangas) and consider the two as Inter-Media Counterparts. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 21:26, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

== Dr. Karashina? ==

Shouldn't she be called Dr. Karashina? Her name has 博士 ''hakase'' in it which, in the case of the other Pokémon professors, means Dr. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 06:05, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
:He was at Professor Nanakamado before we knew he was Rowan. More often than not, "Dr. X" who studies Pokémon becomes "Professor X" in English. It's not the rule, just what kind of happens when Dr. Ookido became Prof. Oak, Dr. Utsugi became Prof. Elm, Dr. Odamaki became Prof. Birch, and Dr. Namakamado became Prof. Rowan. People end up guessing that she'll become Prof. Something or Other. Anyway, her appearance in English is less than 10 weeks off. As long as [[Dr. Karashina]] redirects here it'll get updated by the {{u|redirect fixer}} as soon as it's moved to her English name.

== Opening line ==

Err, it seems that starting an article with a section is awkward, IMO. --☆'''[[User:Kevzo8|Ke]][[Special:Contributions/Kevzo8|vz]][[User_talk:Kevzo8|o8]]''' 13:29, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
:Seems redundant too. '''[[User:Optimatum|Θρtιmαtum]][[User talk:Optimatum|Talk]] 13:29, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

== Template ==

Shouldn't she be included in the animecharacters template? She did appear again... [[User:Jmath|'''Jm''']][[User talk:Jmath|'''a''']][[Special:Contributions/Jmath|'''th''']] 19:51, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

==Relevant?==

Is it relevant she looks very similar to Stage Madonna Kate? I just read a comment about it and I have to agree, they do look a lot alike But I'm not sure if it's relevant.--[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 07:54, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
:Quite true, but not really relevant to the article. You know, once you add it on the Trivia section, users would start deleting it with the edit summary "Speculation"..

== Carolina ==

I just watched the two-parter with Carolina and she wasn't once referred to as "Professor Carolina", just "Carolina". Think it should be moved as such? [[User:J-J-M|'''J''']]'''-'''[[User talk:J-J-M|'''J''']]'''-'''[[Special:Contributions/J-J-M|'''M''']] 20:43, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

== Appearance ==

Her appearance in anime and in pokemon adventure(comics) are totally different.Is it noticeable? I think most character look alike.But for her in comics she was short and kind looking old-man.[[User:Meearaimeng|Meearaimeng]] 04:20, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Well, I think the manga counterpart deserved to be mentioned in a different section, because their actions are different from the anime.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] 18:20, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

== Article title ==

Considering that only the anime character is named Professor Carolina, this article title seems very misleading... I would suggest "Cynthia's grandmother," which, while not the official name of the character, would be general enough for readers to understand. [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 22:02, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

She is a game character first and for-most, her anime and even manga counterparts are based on her actions in the games. She should be called "Cynthia's grandmother", I agree. [[User:Trotz59|Trotz59]] ([[User talk:Trotz59|talk]]) 05:15, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

'''Bulbasaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギダネ''' ''Fushigidane'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Venusaur}} starting at level 36.

Along with {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, Bulbasaur is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Kanto]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]].

==Biology==
Bulbasaur is a small, quadruped Pokémon with green or bluish-green skin and dark patches. Its thick legs each end with three sharp claws. Its eyes have red irises, while the sclera and pupils are white. Bulbasaur has a pair of small, pointed teeth visible when its mouth is open. It has a bulb on its back, grown from a seed planted there at birth. The bulb provides it with energy through photosynthesis as well as from the nutrient-rich seeds contained within.

As mentioned [[AG025|in the anime]], starter Pokémon are raised by {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|Breeder}}s to be distributed to new {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Having been domesticated from birth, Bulbasaur is regarded as both a rare and well-behaved Pokémon. [[EP102|It is known]] to be extremely loyal, even after long-term abandonment. [[PK01|Bulbasaur has also shown]] itself to be an excellent caretaker, even having a special technique called the "Bulba-by." To perform this technique, Bulbasaur uses its vines to pick up a young Pokémon and soothingly rocks the young one in the air.

It is found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}} and forests throughout the Kanto region. However, due to Bulbasaur's status as starter Pokémon, it is hard to come by in the wild and generally found under the ownership of a Trainer. [[EP051|It has been observed]] that a Bulbasaur's bulb will flash blue when it is ready to evolve. If it does not want to evolve, it struggles to resist the transformation. Many Bulbasaur gather every year in a hidden garden in Kanto to become Ivysaur in a ceremony led by a Venusaur.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ash Bulbasaur.png|thumb|right|250px|Bulbasaur in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]====
Ash's Bulbasaur debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]]. Though initially wary of {{Ash}}, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a battle. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was captured. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were captured in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's party until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.

====[[May's Bulbasaur]]====
Much later on, when Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] region, his companion {{an|May}} captured her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria!]]''. It remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to compete in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May, too, left her Bulbasaur at Professor Oak's lab to learn from Ash's while she and Ash's group traveled throughout the {{ho|Battle Frontier}} in Kanto. May retrieved it during her travels in [[Johto]], where it evolved all the way into a {{p|Venusaur}}.

====Other====
A Bulbasaur that used to belong to the [[Mayor of Trovitopolis]] appeared in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]''. In his childhood, the mayor abandoned his Bulbasaur and sent it into the sewers when it wouldn't evolve into {{p|Ivysaur}}. Aided by [[Misty]] and {{Tracey}}, Ash found the abandoned Bulbasaur while searching for his own, which had gone missing. After defeating the arrogant mayor and his personal SWAT team, Ash and company left the Bulbasaur, which had grown rather large in its time in the sewers, with [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[SS014|Journey to the Starting Line]]'', {{ka|Gilbert}}, the son of the mayor of [[Pallet Town]], was supposed to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] with one of the three Kanto starter Pokémon, but they were scared off by [[Ash's Tauros]]. {{an|Professor Oak}}, {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}}, and Gilbert set out to find them. The Bulbasaur was the last one to be found and it was stuck in a tree that was surrounded by a group of {{p|Primeape}}. In the end, Bulbasaur was the one that Gilbert decided to start with.

One also appeared in ''[[PK24|Meloetta's Moonlight Serenade]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Bulbasaur was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] new Trainers in [[Pallet Town]] can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, and it was his second choice of a starter, after {{p|Squirtle}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, it was too late, as an unnamed Trainer who started the same day had already taken it.

Multiple Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''.

A Bulbasaur also appeared in ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]'' and ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]''.

A Bulbasaur under the ownership of an unknown Trainer, appeared in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]'', during the closing ceremonies of the [[Indigo League]].

A picture of a Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[EP241|Hocus Pokémon]]''.

A Bulbasaur was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

A Bulbasaur appeared in the opening of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.

A Bulbasaur was one of the [[starter Pokémon]] at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]''.

A Bulbasaur made a brief appearance under the ownership of a Trainer in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]''.

A Bulbasaur appeared in ''[[BW116|The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!]]''.

A Bulbasaur appeared in [[Alexa]]'s magazine in ''[[BW134|The Journalist from Another Region!]].''

Bulbasaur, now named Saur, has since evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}}, and then to {{p|Venusaur}}. It has also been shown in the manga that Bulbasaur has the ability to suck in large amounts of air through its bulb, as seen in ''[[PS014|That Awful Arbok!]]'' where it sucked up the mist in [[Pokémon Tower]] as well as the {{p|Gastly}} that made it.

Bulbasaur appears as a random trophy.

====Melee trophy information====
''Bulbasaur is a cute Pokémon born with a large seed firmly affixed to its back; the seed grows in size as the Pokémon does. Along with Squirtle and Charmander, Bulbasaur is one of the three Pokémon available at the beginning of Pokémon Red and Blue. It evolves into Ivysaur.''

====Brawl trophy information====
''"A Seed Pokémon. From birth, Bulbasaur carries a large plant seed on its back. It uses the nutrients from the seed to grow bigger and bigger. Extended exposure to the sun will cause its body and seed to grow in size. Some say that once, when the seed was much lighter, Bulbasaur was able to get around on two legs. Bulbasaur evolves into Ivysaur."''

==Trivia==
[[File:Niue Dollar Pokemon.jpg|thumb|250px|right|$1 coins from {{wp|Niue}}]]
* {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Bulbasaur as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Bulbasaur on one side and the nation's coat of arms on the other.
* Bulbasaur's evolution family is the only starter Pokémon evolution family to have each member appear at least once in the Super Smash Bros. series.
* Bulbasaur is the only unevolved dual type starter Pokémon.
* Bulbasaur and its evolutions share their [[species]] name with {{p|Sunkern}}. They are all known as the Seed Pokémon.
* Bulbasaur's number in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 001.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Bulbasaur cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Bulbasaur is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Charm}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no other Pokémon in the {{egg|Grass}} or {{egg2|Monster}}s can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg move]] in those games. In [[Generation III]] and {{gen|IV}}, Bulbasaur can inherit the move from {{p|Shroomish}} by chain breeding; in Generation V on, Bulbasaur can inherit the move directly from {{p|Cottonee}}.

===Origin===
Bulbasaur appears to be based primarily on some form of {{wp|reptile}}, specifically mammal-like reptiles known as ''{{wp|Dicynodonts}}'' from the {{wp|Permian}} period. Along with visible ears and no genuine metamorphosis stage (evolution aside), Bulbasaur appears to have more in common with {{wp|mammals}} than {{wp|amphibians}} like {{wp|frogs}} and {{wp|toads}}, which metamorphose from one definite creature into another as they mature as opposed to just growing into a larger adult version of itself the way that Bulbasaur does. Alternatively, Bulbasaur's large rounded snout, wide mouth, wide-set eyes, blotch-patterned skin, and quadraped-like movements are vaguely similar to those of certain amphibians, such as the {{wp|common toad}}. Since Bulbasaur's "ears" do not in fact have hollows, they may actually be similar to the glands present behind the eyes of many species of frogs and toads.

The bulb on its back may resemble that of a {{wp|lily}} or {{wp|onion}}.

====Name origin====
Bulbasaur is a portmanteau of the words ''{{wp|bulb}}'' (a rounded underground storage organ present in some plants, notably those of the lily family) and the Greek ''saur'' (lizard).

Fushigidane literally means "''isn't it strange?''" and is also a pun on 不思議種 ''fushigidane'' (mysterious bulb).

'''Girafarig''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''キリンリキ''' ''Kirinriki'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Psychic}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
Girafarig is a hoofed quadruped Pokémon with a long neck. There is a white blaze on its muzzle, which ends with its round, pink nose. It has two horns with bulbous tips on top of its head. Its front half is yellow with black spots, while its back half is black with yellow spots. The female Girafarig has a smaller dark section than the male. There are many triangular, pink spikes along its back.

Girafarig's tail possesses a head of its own. The tail's head has yellow eyes, a mouth full of sharp teeth, and a small brain. However, this head is incapable of independent thinking and relies on outside stimuli such as smell to guide its actions. If the tail smells something alluring, it will bite. The tail often mimics the head during feeding, and is able to warn the Pokémon of danger if it is sleeping. Girafarig lives in wide-open {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|plains}}, where it feeds on the plant life.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
[[Image:Alpha kirinriki.png|thumb|200px|right|Girafarig's early design]]
* An [[Prototype Pokémon and characters#Kirinriki|early design]] of Girafarig had a full-sized second head, reflecting its palindromic name, and rather resembling a {{wp|List of Doctor Dolittle characters#The pushmi-pullyu|Pushmi-pullyu}}.
* Girafarig's name is a {{wp|palindrome}}. It shares this distinction with {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Alomomola}}.
** Kirinriki, Girafarig's Japanese name, is also a palindrome when written in katakana.

===Origin===
Girafarig is based on a ''{{wp|Giraffokeryx}}'', which resembles the {{wp|okapi}} and the {{wp|giraffe}}.

Girafarig's small second brain may have been based on the ''{{wp|Stegosaurus}}'', an herbivorous dinosaur which is believed by some paleontologists to have {{wp|Stegosaurus#"Second_brain"|possessed a second brain in its tail}}, improving its reflexes against predators.

====Name origin====
Girafarig is a palindrome based on ''{{wp|giraffe}}'', based on its two-headed and reverse appearance.

Kirinriki is a palindrome of 麒麟 ''kirin'' (giraffe). ''Kirin'' is also the name of the {{wp|Qilin|Qílín}}, the Chinese unicorn. The Qilin was feared by criminals as it was able to detect guilt. After sensing the guilt, the Qilin would stare at the guilty party and pierce its heart.

'''Alomomola''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ママンボウ''' ''Mamanbou'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
Alomomola is a pink fish-like Pokémon with darker pink markings on its heart-shaped body and fins. It has large dorsal and ventral fins resembling hands, each divided into four sections and tipped with a paler pink. The shape of the Pokémon resembles an ocean sunfish, as it lacks a proper tail fin. Its eyes are round with golden irises and a mark that appears to be an eyelash extending up and back toward the rest of the body. It lives in the open seas. If it finds an injured Pokémon floating at sea, Alomomola will heal the Pokémon's wounds and carry it back to shore. It heals Pokémon using its special membrane enveloping its entire body.

==In the anime==

===Minor appearances===

Multiple Alomomola appeared in ''[[M14|White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram]]''.

A photograph of an Alomomola appeared in ''[[BW054|The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck!]]''.

Multiple Alomomola appeared in ''[[XY022|Going for the Gold!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Alomomola's name is a {{wp|palindrome}}. It shares this distinction with {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Girafarig}}, and {{p|Ho-Oh}}.
* Alomomola has the highest base HP stat of all Generation V Pokémon.
* When Alomomola's artwork was first revealed, many fans believed it to be an evolved form of {{p|Luvdisc}} due to its color and design.
* Alomomola represents {{wp|March}} in the [[Unova]] [[horoscope]].
* Alomomola was the first non-legendary [[Generation V]] Pokémon to appear in [[BW001|an episode]] of the {{pkmn|anime}}.

===Origin===
Alomomola appears to be a combination of an {{wp|ocean sunfish}} and a heart representing health. Due to its hand-like fins and heart shaped body, it may have been inspired by the {{wp|Claddagh ring}}. Its ability to heal other Pokémon may be inspired by the {{wp|doctor fish}}. The fact that it wraps itself in a special membrane might be a reference to a {{wp|parrotfish}}.

====Name origin====
Alomomola is a combination of ''Mola mola'' (scientific name for the {{wp|ocean sunfish}}) and ''mom'' (referring to its status as the Caring Pokémon). It may also refer to ''aloha'', {{wp|Hawaiian language|Hawaiian}} for ''love/affection'', referenced by Alomomola's heart-like shape and the ocean sunfish's preference to tropical areas, such as {{wp|Hawaii}}. ''Alomomola'' is a {{wp|palindrome}}.

Mamanbou may be a combination of ''mama'' and 翻車魚 ''manbō'' (ocean sunfish).

'''Sabrina''' (Japanese: '''ナツメ''' ''Natsume'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Saffron City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Saffron Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Marsh}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She is a young lady with psychic abilities, and thus trains {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Sabrina has appeared in every generation of Pokémon other than [[Generation V]] as the Gym Leader of the [[Saffron Gym]]. Known as "The Master of Psychic Pokémon" ("The Mistress of Psychic-type Pokémon" in [[Generation IV]]), she has had psychic powers ever since she was a child, when she accidentally bent a spoon. She apparently dislikes battling, but is hard to beat because she can communicate with her Pokémon telepathically. Her fame has grown so much that even Trainers living in the [[Sevii Islands]] have heard of her. Previously there were two Gyms in Saffron City, a {{type|Fighting}} Gym, and a Psychic-type Gym. Sabrina used her advantage to defeat the rival Gym and strip them of their Gym status.

She appears to have the ability to see the future. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} she states that [[Generation I|three years ago]] she foresaw the arrival of another strong challenger (realized in the form of {{ga|Ethan}}, {{ga|Kris}}, and {{ga|Lyra}}). After this second defeat, she accepts that the ability of foresight may be limited.

In {{game5|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, Trainers must navigate [[warp tile]]s to find Sabrina hiding in the middle of her Gym. Defeating her will earn them the {{Badge|Marsh}} and a {{type|Psychic}} TM: {{TM|46|Psywave}} in Generation I; {{TM|04|Calm Mind}} in Generation III. The Gym maintains a similar style in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. The warp tiles are maintained, as is the Badge: Sabrina, however, gives no TM in Generation II and {{TM|48|Skill Swap}} in Generation IV.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Sabrina has received a major redesign, now sporting a vastly different hairstyle and changing her wardrobe from a conservative dark-red turtleneck to a completely new, more casual-looking outfit. After her initial defeat in Saffron City, she ventures outside of her Gym. She can be found at the dock for the [[S.S. Aqua]] in the [[Olivine City]] Harbor at any time on Friday. After the player has obtained her phone number here, she can be called during Sunday afternoon to arrange a rematch at the Fighting Dojo she once defeated.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Sabrina appears in the Pokémon World Tournament as a participant along with other Gym Leaders. She also takes part in [[Pokéstar Studios]] movies as '''Magic Queen Bellelba''' (Japanese: '''まほうクイーンジュジュベ''' ''Magic Queen Jujube''), a villain in [[Mystery Doors of the Magical Land Series]].

Sabrina also appears in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]. A large number of her Pokémon here are not of the Psychic-type, including a {{type|Fighting}} {{p|Hitmonlee}}.

===={{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}====
* Before battle
:''"I had a vision of your arrival! I have had psychic powers since I was a little child. I first learned to bend spoons with my mind. I dislike fighting, but if you wish, I will show you my powers!"''

* When defeated
:''"I'm shocked! But a loss is a loss. I admit I didn't work hard enough to win! You earned the <sc>{{badge|Marsh}}!"''

* After being defeated
:''"The <sc>Marsh Badge</sc> makes <sc>Pokémon</sc> up to L70 obey you! Stronger <sc>Pokémon</sc> will become wild, ignoring your orders in battle! Just don't raise your <sc>Pokémon</sc> too much! Wait, please take this TM with you!"''
:''"[[TM46]] is <sc>{{m|Psywave}}</sc>! It uses powerful psychic waves to inflict damage!"''

===={{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}====

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Sabrina anime.png|left|thumb|180px|Sabrina with a doll of her former self]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Sabrina was the fourth Gym Leader {{Ash}} encountered. He challenged her initially in ''[[EP022|Abra and the Psychic Showdown]]'', and had a rematch with her in ''[[EP024|Haunter Versus Kadabra]]''.

Sabrina inherited her psychic power from her {{TP|Sabrina|father}}, who had the ability to {{m|teleport}} from location to location, as well as telekinesis. It manifested when she was young, and it was soon apparent that Sabrina's abilities far exceeded her father's. She was able to use her psychic powers to do many things- teleportation, telepathy, psychokinesis, and transmutation.

As her power increased, she grew more obsessed with developing it. She became less and less emotional, using her abilities for destructive purposes, even transforming her mother into a doll. This caused a deep psychological rift. The emotions she tried to shut off developed into a separate personality- a young girl who manifested as a puppet around Sabrina. Sabrina's mind was divided into the cold, callous woman with a thirst for power and the little girl who just wanted to have fun.

Sabrina became the Leader of the [[Saffron Gym]], and turned it into an institute where fellow psychics could develop their powers. Ash was headed to [[Saffron City]] one day, unknowingly watched by Sabrina. Sabrina's younger self used her psychic abilities to save Ash and his friends from {{TRT}}. The next day, despite warnings from a mysterious man, Ash challenged Sabrina and lost miserably. Sabrina used her powers to shrink Ash and {{ashfr}}, but they were saved by the same man. He cautioned Ash that only {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon could defeat {{type|Psychic}}s.

Ash resolved to catch a Ghost-type Pokémon. After a trip to the [[Lavender Tower]], Ash returned with a {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}} he had befriended. Ash challenged Sabrina to a rematch, but Haunter had wandered off in the meantime. Ash managed to escape Sabrina's wrath, rescued by the mysterious man once again, but {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} were transformed into dolls and placed into a dollhouse, where they met Sabrina's mother in the same predicament.

After talking with the man, who was revealed to be Sabrina's father, Ash returned once more, and during the match, Haunter appeared and started to playfully tease Sabrina. Haunter's antics delighted Sabrina so much, that she was no longer able to contain her emotions and started to laugh. This caused her two personalities to merge back into one. Ash was deemed the winner of the match due to the inability of Sabrina or her psychically-linked Pokémon to battle, and he won the Marsh Badge. Haunter chose to stay with Sabrina and her reunited family.

|vajp=Unshō Ishizuka

|desc=Kadabra first appeared as an Abra in ''[[EP022|Abra and the Psychic Showdown]]''. Sabrina used it in a one-on-one Gym battle against {{Ash}}. During the battle with [[Ash's Pikachu]], Abra evolved into a Kadabra and with its {{type|Psychic}} attacks, it eventually caused Ash to forfeit the match to save Pikachu from being further injured. It was shown that Sabrina and Kadabra share a strong psychic bond.

Ash later returned for a rematch in ''[[EP024|Haunter Versus Kadabra]]''. During the battle, [[Sabrina's Haunter|Ash's Haunter]] appeared during the battle and made Sabrina laugh for the first time in years, which caused Kadabra to laugh as well due to the psychic bond it has with Sabrina. Due to this, Sabrina decided to give the {{Badge|Marsh}} to Ash.}}

|desc=Haunter first appeared in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]''. {{Ash}} went to the [[Pokémon Tower]] to capture a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, because [[Sabrina's father]] told him Ghost-type Pokémon were strong against Psychic types like {{p|Kadabra}}. When he was there, he ran into Haunter, as well as its other two evolutionary family members {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Gengar}}. Ash did not capture any of the three Pokémon, but on the way back to Saffron, he discovered Haunter was following him and decided to use it in his battle with Sabrina.

After returning to the Gym and announcing he wanted to battle Sabrina again, Haunter disappeared, forcing Ash to use his {{AP|Pikachu}} once again. Before the battle was completed, however, Haunter appeared in front of Sabrina and started making faces, causing her to smile and laugh for the first time in many years. Because Sabrina and Kadabra shared a psychic connection, both her and Kadabra were unable to battle from laughing so hard. After Ash was given the {{Badge|Marsh}} and was ready to leave, Haunter remained in [[Saffron City]].}}

==In the manga==
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[File:Sabrina EToP.png|right|thumb|Sabrina with {{AP|Pikachu}} in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
[[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}} probably presents the most sympathetic portrayal of Sabrina. She appears in the chapter ''[[ET04|Haunting My Dreams]]'' as a kind and gentle shrine maiden who runs a [[Gym]] in the mountains with her {{TP|Sabrina|Abra}}.

When she was a child, Sabrina's Pokémon were all killed by a gigantic {{p|Haunter}} that used {{m|Dream Eater}} to suck out their souls. After defeating {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} in a Gym battle, Sabrina hears of the giant Haunter appearing at the [[Pokémon Tower]], and went off to go defeat it. Unfortunately, she herself fell prey to the Haunter and her soul was sucked out. With {{an|Brock}} and Ash's help, Sabrina is able to defeat the Haunter. Although Ash tries to catch it with an {{DL|Poké Ball|Ultra Ball}}, it kills itself using {{m|Selfdestruct}} rather than let itself be captured.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Lt. Surge Sabrina Adventures.png|right|thumb|200px|Sabrina in Pokémon Adventures]]
Sabrina is one of the three villainous heads of [[Team Rocket]], and serves under {{Adv|Giovanni}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]].

She first appears in ''[[PS020|Meanwhile...Vileplume!]]'', where she floats on top of her Kadabra and spots {{adv|Red}} leaving with an [[Vee|Eevee]] that Team Rocket experimented on. She comments how perfect it is that Eevee is in his hands and takes her leave elsewhere. Under Giovanni's orders, Sabrina captured {{p|Moltres}} and brought it to him at Saffron City. She attacks Red at Pallet Town, where she reveals that she has kidnapped {{adv|Professor Oak}} and taunts Red by telling him to come to Saffron City. Once they arrive, they find out that Sabrina's {{p|Mr. Mime}} closed off Saffron City with a barrier.

[[File:Sabrina Team Rocket Adventures.png|left|thumb|170px|Sabrina as a member of Team Rocket]]
Once Red, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} manage to get past the barrier and inside the [[Silph Co.]] building, they are split up and face the three Rocket members alone. Sabrina is paired up against Green, who she forces to relive painful moments of her past by using her psychic abilities to pry into her mind and make her fears look real through illusions. Green eventually escapes the illusions by goading Sabrina into slashing her dress open, revealing two of her Pokémon hidden in her chest. Green's Pokémon use sound attacks to prevent Sabrina from using her powers and causing the illusions to fail. With Sabrina distracted, Green takes this chance to steal Sabrina's Marsh Badge and make her escape.

Sabrina eventually gets out of the attack and finds Red and Green with the Badge Energy Amplifier. Angered, she summons Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno and has them surround Red. When Green activates the machine in order to obtain the new Pokémon she assumed it would create, she accidentally causes the three legendary Pokémon to fuse into one creature. Sabrina commands [[Thu-Fi-Zer]] and uses it to attack the three with its great strength. Eventually, it is defeated when Red, Blue, and Green combine their attacks into one and manage to separate the three Pokémon back into their original forms.

In the {{chap|Yellow}}, Sabrina reappears with [[Koga]] and [[Lt. Surge]] to help battle the Elite Four on [[Cerise Island]]. There, they reveal that after their defeat at the Silph Co. building, they managed to escape and were planning on making a comeback before the Elite Four showed up. Although reluctant, the Rocket triad decides to work together with their former enemies to defeat their common opponents. Sabrina uses the [[Spoons of Destiny]] to decide with pair would face which member of the Elite Four. Sabrina is paired up with Green, and the two head off to face [[Lorelei]] in battle.

[[File:Sabrina B2W2 chapter.png|right|thumb|170px|Sabrina in the eleventh chapter]]
As soon as they arrive to face their opponent, Lorelei binds the two together with her ice handcuffs. Due to their lack of proper teamwork, the battle was only made harder with Sabrina and Green bound together. Eventually, Green defeats Lorelei after revealing the arm that was bound to Sabrina's arm was actually her [[Ditty]] in disguise and uses it to tie the villain up. This angers Sabrina, who soon yells at Green for fooling her just like she did to Lorelei. With the battle over, Sabrina leaves Green to meet up with Giovanni, who had also come to help battle. Although she and Lt. Surge suggest restarting Team Rocket again, Giovanni tells the two to go home and continue tending to their Gyms.

The battle with Lorelei gave Sabrina severe {{wp|frostbite}} injuries on her wrist. She managed to cure this by travelling to [[Mt. Silver]] and bathed in the hot springs found there. There, she encountered Red, who was there to cure his own frostbite injuries, and told him that something was going to happen at the Pokémon League. After leaving, Sabrina leaves Red a note telling him about another hot spring that can cure his frostbite much faster so that he can get to the Pokémon League quickly.

Afterward, she travels to the Pokémon League to have an exhibition match with the other Kanto Gym Leaders against the Johto Gym Leaders. Sabrina is paired up against [[Bugsy]], whose attempts to befriend her end in vain. Despite the type disadvantage, Sabrina manages to defeat Bugsy with her {{p|Mr. Mime}}, who uses it abilities to create invisible walls to its advantage. When the [[Masked Man]] attacks the Pokémon League with his army of mind controlled Team Rocket Grunts, Sabrina assists her fellow Gym Leaders by battling the army. Once the battle had finally ended, Sabrina went back to usual Gym Leader duties.

Much later, Sabrina makes an appearance in the {{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}. Here, she is revealed to have become an actress at [[Pokéstar Studios]]. When she notices [[Whi-Two]] having trouble picking a movie to act in, Sabrina has her Alakazam use its abilities to pick out a [[Brycen-Man Series|Brycen-Man movie]] for her.

'''Mawile''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クチート''' ''Kucheat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Fairy}} Pokémon, and prior to [[Generation VI]], a pure {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Mawile''' using the {{DL|Mega Stone|Mawilite}}.

==Biology==
Mawile is a short, bipedal Pokémon with a pale yellow body and black arms and feet. Its legs have a thick, fur-like covering resembling {{wp|hakama}} or a skirt. Its most notable feature is a pair of large black jaws emerging from the back of its head. These jaws have an oval yellow spot on their top surface and contain ten pointed teeth - six on the top row and four on the bottom. While the jaws are said to actually be transformed steel horns, Mawile can articulate them at will, using them to bite enemies and chew through iron beams. It has red eyes and two black ear-like extensions on either side of its head.

Mega Mawile has a second set of jaws protruding from the back of its head, and both sets now have a spiky tuft of hair. It also seems to be able to control each jaw independently of each other <ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Mawile</ref>. The ear-like extensions on its head are longer and have tips with two points. The fur on its legs is now magenta. It now has longer fur on its arms with magenta markings around its wrists.

Mawile is typically found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}}. It uses its non-threatening appearance to make foes underestimate it, then attacks with its giant jaws; when engaged in battle, Mawile usually has its back turned on the enemy to better use its jaws.

==In the anime==
[[File:Samantha Mawile.png|left|thumb|Mawile in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Mawile first appeared in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]''. The Deceiver Pokémon was owned by a woman named [[Samantha]], a performer in a show, and had a crush on [[Brock's Ludicolo|Brock's Lombre]], but Lombre didn't feel any affection for Mawile. After the Jolly Pokémon evolved into a {{p|Ludicolo}} by finding a {{evostone|Water Stone}} in Samantha's [[bag|backpack]], it finally found itself affectionate toward Mawile. However, Mawile decided it didn't like the fully evolved Ludicolo and moved on to another boy's {{p|Psyduck}}.

A Mawile that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Mawile will appear in [[XY034]], under the ownership of Maple.

===Minor appearances===
Mawile made its debut appearance in a cameo in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

A Mawile appeared in a fantasy in ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby!]]''

A Mawile appeared in [[SS027]].

A Mawile appeared in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]''.

A Mawile appeared in ''[[XY005|A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle!]]''.

A Mawile that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Mawile appeared in ''[[SS029|Mega Evolution Special I]]''.

===Pokédex entries===

==Trivia==
* Mawile's [[footprint]] is different between the [[Generation III]] games ([[File:F303gen3.png]]) and the [[Generation IV]] games ([[File:F303.png]]).
* Mawile's Ruby Pokédex entry erroneously has its name spelled "Maw'''h'''ile". This mistake is only present in the American versions and was corrected for the English versions available in other regions.
* Mawile seems to be the counterpart of {{p|Sableye}}. Both of them are {{pkmn2|version-exclusive}} between Ruby and Sapphire as well as {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. They also have the same base stat total (with the same base {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Speed}} stats).
* Mega Mawile has the highest {{stat|Attack}} stat of any Pokémon, with a maximum of 678 (105 base Attack plus {{a|Huge Power}}). This is higher than the limit of 669 Attack (255 base Attack, as 255 is the highest possible 8-digit binary number), and would equal a Pokémon with 259 base Attack.
* Mega Mawile has the lowest [[base stat]] total of all Mega Evolved Pokémon, at 480.
* Mega Mawile is the shortest of all Mega Evolved Pokémon at 1 meter (3'03").
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Mawile was the only Pokemon to face the player during battle, when being used by the player.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Mawile}}
Mawile may have been based on the Japanese legend of the ''{{wp|futakuchi-onna}}'', a woman with a mouth in the back of her head.

====Name origin====
Mawile is a combination of ''{{wp|maw}}'' (the mouth of a voracious animal) and ''wile'' (a stratagem or trick intended to deceive or ensnare).

Kucheat is a combination of 口 ''kuchi'' (mouth) and ''cheat'' or ''eat''.

==In other languages==
