:'''JOLTAEX''' is what a lot of people call me, so...yeah.
Mostly I help out around Bulbapedia by doing random things—sometimes I might upload missing pictures and place them in an article, sometimes I might (try to) add a shipping hint if it's not opinionated, and sometimes I do other stuff, like fix grammatical errors and such. It just depends on how I'm feeling that day, I guess.
I spend a lot of my time watching Pokemon—mainly the Advanced Generation series—and listening to music. Other than that, the usual: school, homework, etc. I'm in eighth grade, and I have ''a lot'' of homework, so I usually don't get that much time to edit.

:'''OTHER_STUFF'''
Well, there's not really that much to know about me that I haven't already stated in my usertags, but here I go anyway.

First of all, I'm bipolar, so if I'm mad at you for some reason and you can't figure out why, then now you know. I can be really emotional at times, and very, very shy at other times. I don't like making mistakes, either--I like it when everyone thinks that I'm a {{tt|pro-editor|which, let's face it, I'm 'definitely' not...}}, and it's cool to have people look up to me. But, in reality, I probably bring Bulbapedia down more than help it out. Also, I don't really want this website to be finished, because if it is, then it would be *gasp* the end of Pokémon as we know it.

About Pokémon--I'm {{tt|obsessed|like, I think about it almost every minute of every day kind of obsessed}}. ''Really'' obsessed. I like each and every Pokémon out there, except for maybe Jynx, which, to put it nicely, isn't very pretty. Anyways, I can't really remember when I started watching Pokémon: I think it was sometime in the Kanto or Johto regions, but I'm not sure--to me, those regions were the worst. I mean, in the games, they're fine, but in the anime? Forget it. Sometimes I wonder how it's possible to like them (no offense). Personally, I like the Hoenn region the best. I like it for it's awesome variety of climates and new, cool Pokémon like Flygon and Swellow, and also because it introduced my now-favorite characters: {{tt|Ash|the cool, mature Ash}} and {{tt|May|she reminds me of myself, somehow...}}. Max was okay, too, and so was Brock. Although I was used to watching the old Pokémon with Misty and such, I liked the change--Misty was annoying and, to me, obviously didn't like Ash in ''that'' way (besides, what is she, sixteen?) although lots of people say so. In my opinion, bickering doesn't lead to a perfect relationship--friendship does. And that's just what Ash and May had together: all their similarities, how they helped each other grow, etc. Hence I found AdvanceShipping on Bulbapedia, and I have never gone back (and never will). I don't really mind other ships, but I don't like it when people wave theirs around like, "Hey! ___Shipping is so canon, yours sucks!" and I've seen quite a lot of people do that. To me, I don't like ContestShipping because, well, Drew was mean and annoying at first, and I guess I'm just not that good at forgiving jerks, especially when he acts so arrogant and flips his hair all the time. But anyway, there were some moments, but still...like I said before, friendship is better than bickering, which is also the reason I DON'T like PokeShipping and NegaiShipping. PearlShipping, well...I just think that she's supposed to be with Kenny. And Misty is supposed to be with Tracey. And...I think you get my point{{tt|....|and Iris is supposed to be with Cilan! Or Trip...}}

Anyway, I really, really like Pokémon. I would give almost anything in order for it to be real--then I would train every day and become a Pokémon Master (hopefully)! My favorite Pokémon are {{tt|Furret|it's so adorable and you can teach it anything: how can you not love it??}}, {{tt|Flygon|oh come on, this PKMN's just freaking badass & cool}}, {{tt|Eevee|It's cute--plus it evolves into Glaceon, so...}}, {{tt|Pikachu|obviously this fat rat is a boss}}, {{tt|Arcanine|I will eat you.}}, and finally, {{tt|Joltik|did you know it's the smallest Pokémon: only four inches? And it's fast--and it's ELECTRIC!!}}. My most favorite, at the moment, is Chandelure, because it reminds me of me. Sucking life energy out of other people...good times. But really, all Pokémon are cool, and any one of them can become a boss if you take the time to train them.

Also a few of my favorites...I didn't want to clog up my usertags with these, so here they are. I doubt any of you care. Actually, I doubt any one is actually reading this, so what's the point? Erm, anyways...my favorite singer is {{tt|Erin Bowman|she even has my first name! she brings this suckish name honor! xD}}, who is also the singer of some Pokemon songs, as well as pop songs. Katy Perry's cool, too, though. And so are K-Pop bands! SHINee and Super Junior and 4Minute all the way! My favorite color usually varies between blue, {{tt|red|with a pinkish/magneta tinge..IDK}}, black, and white. I also kind of like teal (why you'd want to know these things, I have no clue). Also, my favorite region is Hoenn (which I believe I already stated earlier), and my favorite generation is, ooh, {{tt|can you guess?|the Advanced Generation / Gen. III}} And....yeah. That's pretty much it. Well, probably not--there's a lot more to say about me, but I seriously doubt that you care at all. But if you do care {{tt|or whatever|or you want to tell me that you actually read this so I don't feel ignored xD}} then you can talk to me [[User_talk:Joltaex|here]].

Poké Ball

2012-09-29T22:31:12Z

Joltaex: /* Introduced in Generation III */ luxury ball location in XD.

{{Featured}}
[[File:Allballs2.png|thumb|250px|right|The 26 Poké Ball variants found in the [[Version|main series]]]]
[[File:Poké Ball sketch.png|thumb|right|[[Ken Sugimori]]'s original concept]]
A '''Poké Ball''' (Japanese: '''モンスターボール''' ''Monster Ball'') is a type of [[item]] that is critical to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s quest, used for {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} and storing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Both a general term used to describe the various kinds as well as a specific term to refer to the most basic among these variations, Poké Balls are ubiquitous in the modern Pokémon world. Up to six Pokémon can be carried with a Trainer in Poké Balls, while any number of other Poké Balls can be held in the [[bag]] for later use. These six Pokémon in the Poké Balls can be attached to the user's belt for carrying them around. Some Pokémon do not like to be carried around in Poké Balls, such as Ash's Pikachu.

The strength of a Poké Ball is determined by how much it raises a [[wild Pokémon]]'s [[catch rate]], and may in fact vary depending on the conditions of the battle. Poké Balls limit the power of Pokémon contained inside, taming them, though they do not cause the Pokémon inside to always obey the Trainer.

The [[History of Poké Balls|invention of Poké Balls]] apparently occurred in the [[Johto]] region, where [[Apricorn]]s grow; these fruit were cut apart and carved out, then fitted with a special device, and used to catch wild Pokémon prior to the mass production of the Balls that occurs in modern times under [[Silph Co.]] and the [[Devon Corporation]]. Some Trainers still use Poké Balls made from Apricorns, while [[Kurt]], a resident of [[Azalea Town]], still constructs them.

Prior to the invention of Poké Balls, Pokémon were referred to as "magical creatures" (Japanese: '''魔獣''' ''majū''), indicating that the name Pokémon, short for Pocket Monster, did not come into common parlance as a term until these devices allowed the various Pokémon to be stored easily. This also shows that in these times they were believed to be supernatural creatures, not natural ones.

Stylized Poké Balls are used in many places to symbolize Pokémon in general: the logos of both [[Battle Frontier]]s feature a Poké Ball in their design, while several Poké Balls can be seen in every Pokémon Center. The headgear of the protagonists of [[Kanto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]]-based games feature Poké Ball designs, as do the [[bag]]s of the protagonists of [[Johto]]-based games. {{ga|Ethan}}'s headgear is also similar to the top half of an Ultra Ball, and {{ga|Lucas}}'s bag prominently features a Poké Ball.

==Mechanics and design==
[[File:Anime Poke Ball Mechanics.jpg|thumb|280px|right|A schematic displaying Poké Ball size, storage and mechanics]]

Though the technology behind a Poké Ball remains unknown and has evolved through the centuries to accommodate the diverse requirements of their creators, the basic mechanics are simple enough to understand and tend to remain constant: in a [[Pokémon battle]], once an opposing wild Pokémon has been weakened, the Pokémon Trainer can throw a Poké Ball at it. When a Poké Ball hits the Pokémon, as long as it is not deflected, the Poké Ball will open, convert the Pokémon to a form of energy, pull it into its center, and close. A Pokémon in this state is given a chance to struggle to attempt to break free from the ball and escape, being instantly re-converted from energy into matter. Should a Pokémon escape a Poké Ball, the device will either be destroyed (in the games and some manga) or will return to the Trainer (anime), who can attempt once again to capture the Pokémon. A Pokémon who does not escape the ball will be {{pkmn2|caught}}.

[[File:Poke Ball Interior.png|thumb|250px|right|Interior of a Poké Ball from the anime]]

Poké Balls are specifically constructed for Pokémon capture, transport and training. As well as being physically difficult to escape from (as they seal tightly shut as soon as a Pokémon is taken into them) the environment of a Poké Ball is designed to be attractive to Pokémon also; according to Lucian of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], weakened Pokémon instinctively curl up tight in an attempt to heal themselves, an action that the environment of the Poké Ball encourages. Furthermore, while it is not known how a captured Pokémon perceives their time inside their Ball, the device is said to replicate a "Pokémon-friendly" environment that is "designed for comfort". All of these factors strongly discourage Pokémon from escaping their Balls.

Poké Balls are not always at full size. Pressing the button on the front will convert it between its full size, about the size of a {{wp|Baseball (object)|baseball}}, to a smaller size, about that of a {{wp|Table tennis#The ball|ping-pong ball}}, and back again. The larger size makes throwing the ball easier, while the smaller one makes for easier storage on a belt clip, in pockets, and in bags.

As mentioned, the generic Poké Ball design is not constant and has been remodelled and altered innumerable times in order to create new Poké Balls that are adapted for specific conditions. For example, it is seen in several anime episodes such as ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down!]]'' and ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]'' that normal Poké Balls have difficulty catching Pokémon which are extremely large or extremely heavy. In the latter episode, it is revealed that ancient civilizations overcame this issue by constructing immense Poké Balls many times the size of the standard model known today, and made from stone instead. Other civilizations such as [[Pokémopolis]] also discovered new technologies that more closely resembled modern Poké Ball technology, such as the [[Dark Device]] and the [[Unearthly Urn]], which were also adapted for the capture and storage of massive Pokémon but in small containers. However, devices like these became lost to the ages and their roles were subsequently supplanted by Heavy Balls in the modern world.

[[File:Paul Chimchar release.png|200px|left|[[Paul]] releasing {{AP|Chimchar|Infernape}}|thumb]]
When a Pokémon is released from a Poké Ball, it will be accompanied by a bright light as it returns from its energy form, and materialize nearby, often on the ground. This bright light has been shown to vary depending on the type of Ball that the Pokémon is contained in in the games, while it has always been shown to be white in the anime. Pokémon are recalled to their Poké Ball by holding up the Poké Ball with its button pointed at the Pokémon. A beam of red light will shoot from the button, converting the Pokémon back into energy and returning it to the Ball. The beam, however, has a limited range, and can be dodged by the Pokémon. If the beam hits a person, they will be stunned for a moment, but aside from that no ill effects will make themselves apparent. Releasing Pokémon from a Trainer's ownership, unlike normally sending the Pokémon out, will bathe the Pokémon in a blue glow, and the Poké Ball will no longer mark it, making it able to be caught by another Trainer's Poké Ball.

A Poké Ball can also be broken, which will release it from ownership, and if a Trainer has done so accidentally, it must somehow be fixed before the Pokémon can be recalled. In the manga, if a Poké Ball is broken before a Pokémon is sent out, then that particular Pokémon can't be used until their Poké Ball has been repaired. This happened several times in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, such as during {{Adv|Red}}'s battle against [[Giovanni]], where the opening mechanism for the Poké Balls of Red's [[Saur|Venusaur]] and [[Gyara]]dos were damaged, preventing either of them from being used in the match.

Pokémon appear to be conscious while inside Poké Balls. Several Pokémon have shown the ability to leave and return to their Poké Balls at will, most notably among them [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]], [[Misty's Psyduck]], [[Ash's Oshawott]], and [[Brock's Croagunk]], which tend to do so in every episode they appear in. In ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett!]]'', many Pokémon belonging to [[Gary Oak]], as well as other Trainers, including Ash Ketchum, demonstrated the ability to prevent themselves from being sent from their Poké Balls, as they refused to fight against the Diglett, though this has not been demonstrated since. Pokémon have also shown to be able to hear orders given by their Trainer right before they are sent out.

Poké Balls are able to communicate with a Trainer's [[Pokédex]], as the system updates itself with information on newly-caught Pokémon, and keeps track of how many Pokémon the Trainer has with them. If a Trainer catches a new Pokémon with the full six already with them, the Pokédex will automatically send the newly-caught Pokémon in its Poké Ball to the [[Pokémon Storage System]] that the Trainer is using. As shown in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]'', a Pokémon caught by a Poké Ball is "marked" by it, and thus most Poké Balls thrown at it will have no effect aside from temporarily stunning it. In the games, as well as in ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]'', however, the Trainer of the Pokémon will block a Poké Ball thrown by another, though it is possible that this is more out of courtesy to their Pokémon than to prevent capture outright.

Other wireless capabilities of Poké Balls are shown in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', as when the electricity of the city is down, [[Audrey]] could not release her {{p|Masquerain}} from the Poké Ball, claiming that the "Poké Ball Management System" was no longer working without power. There has been no mention of any such system since.

Poké Balls are able to be decorated to no ill effect, with several Poké Balls that have been painted with special colors being seen in the anime. In the games, a [[Ball Capsule]] and [[seal]]s can release special effects when the Pokémon is sent out.
{{-}}

==Poké Ball accuracy==
Except for the [[Master Ball]], all Poké Balls have a chance of breaking and not capturing the Pokémon in question, however, in several cases, it is possible for the Poké Ball to miss the wild Pokémon completely.

* In [[Generation I]] games, it was possible for a ball to miss the Pokémon when the likelihood of catching the Pokémon in question was particularly low—rather than the ball throwing animation playing and the ball wiggling zero times, a message would come up stating "You missed the Pokémon!".
* In Generation I as well as in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the {{OBP|Ghost|literal|ghosts}} in [[Lavender Town]]'s [[Pokémon Tower]] would dodge any ball thrown at them unless they were unmasked by the [[Silph Scope]]. The [[Marowak (ghost)|Marowak ghost]] will dodge even if it is unmasked.
* A Poké Ball cannot be thrown during a wild [[Double Battle]], unless one of the two wild Pokémon is defeated, with the game claiming "It's no good! It's impossible to aim when there are two Pokémon!". A player can however snag Pokémon in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}} even if there are two on the opposing side of the field; presumably the [[Snag Machine]] assists in aiming.
* Unlike preceding games, from {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} onwards, it isn't possible to use a Poké Ball on a Pokémon which is in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable state}}.
* Pokémon Black and White introduces wild Double Battles that are encountered alone instead of with a partner like in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum. In addition to the prior requirements, a command cannot be issued to a Pokémon during the same turn a Poké Ball is thrown; however, if the second Pokémon is using a two part move like Dig or Dive; a Poké Ball can still be thrown and Dig or Dive will continue if the ball fails.

==Types of Poké Ball==
[[File:PBR Battle Start.jpg|thumb|right|A Double Battle begins in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]]]
In the Pokémon games so far, there have been 26 different varieties of Poké Ball, all differing from each other in some effect, whether it be an increased ability to catch a Pokémon from the wild or an effect which occurs only after the Pokémon has been caught. From Generation III onward, each variety of Poké Ball has a unique animation when they open to draw in a Pokémon and when a Pokémon is sent out, and the type of Poké Ball used to catch the Pokémon is preserved on its status screen.

===Introduced in Generation I===
The following Poké Balls were introduced in {{game|Red and Green|s}}, and have appeared and been available in all games since then, with the exception of the Safari Ball, which is not present in Generation II. They were developed by [[Silph Co.]], with the development of the [[Master Ball]] factoring into the plot of the Generation I games and their remakes heavily.

===Introduced in Generation II===
The following Poké Balls were introduced in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. These Poké Balls were not available in [[Generation III]] or in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, but made their return in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. Seven of them are made from [[Apricorn]]s by [[Kurt]], while the only one that is not is seen by some to be a counterpart to the Safari Ball in that it is only used in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]] in [[National Park]]. All eight of these Poké Balls have the same animation as a normal Poké Ball when sending out or recalling a Pokémon, rather than the variety of colors and special effects the Poké Ball variants released in other generations have.

When a Pokémon in one of these Balls is used in a link battle in Generation IV, it will appear as an ordinary Poké Ball, regardless of if the link is made with a Johto or Sinnoh-based game. Using a Pokémon in one of these Balls in one of the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}} facilities will show it as it should appear during the battle, but as an ordinary Poké Ball if the battle is saved to the [[Vs. Recorder]] and played back. Trading a Pokémon in one of these Poké Ball variations into {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} or registering it in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] will cause it to display as a normal Poké Ball, though if the Pokémon is traded back into a Johto-based game or transferred forward into Generation V, it will regain its variant Ball.

In Pokémon data, information for these Poké Balls on the status screen and in battle is stored in a separate location from the variants introduced in other generations, so that the Pokémon can be traded back to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum from HeartGold and SoulSilver and display an ordinary Poké Ball there (the data space for these balls being ignored in the earlier games).

===Introduced in Generation III===
The following Poké Balls were introduced in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. While the main four Poké Balls and the Safari Ball returned to central usage, these specialty Balls were only available at certain [[Poké Mart]]s in the Hoenn region, and the Luxury Ball only available via completion of certain quests in the games. Generally, they can be seen to be counterparts to Generation II's Apricorn Balls, which were not available in the Generation III games, with the Timer Ball and Fast Ball, Nest Ball and Level Ball, Net Ball and Lure Ball, and Luxury Ball and Friend Ball being very similar in effect to each other.

The Premier Ball is functionally identical to the standard Poké Ball; it is simply a premium (hence the name) given with the purchase of ten Poké Balls. Only one is given with each purchase of ten or more, so buying 20 or more Poké Balls still only yields one gift Premier Ball. To obtain multiple Premier Balls, the Poké Balls must be purchased in separate transactions of 10 at a time.

These Ball variants continued to be available in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, though most must be traded in from a Hoenn-based game, with only the Timer Ball and Repeat Ball available to be bought, and even then, only in {{OBP|Two Island|town}}. The Dive Ball's effect was altered, with it now having greater chance to catch Pokémon encountered on water rather than under it, as Hoenn-based games are the only ones where wild Pokémon can be encountered while using {{m|Dive}}. In Generation IV, all but the Dive Ball are readily available to be bought, though the Dive Ball can still be obtained through use of [[Pal Park]] and other special events. The Johto-based HeartGold and SoulSilver make the Timer, Repeat, and Luxury Balls hard to find once more, though the returning Apricorn Balls help to take their place. All of these Poké Balls can be purchased in Generation V; however, the Dive Ball has returned to only being more effective when used underwater due to Dive being reintroduced as a field move in Generation V, despite no Pokémon being possible to encounter underwater in these games.

Unlike the Poké Balls introduced in Generation I, these Poké Balls were developed by the [[Devon Corporation]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Ashball.png|thumb|220px|right|{{Ash}} pulling out a Poké Ball, preparing to catch a Pokémon]]
In the anime, the basic Poké Ball is the most commonly used of all varieties, with other varieties appearing either very few times or not at all. A vast majority of Pokémon are shown to be stored in regular Poké Balls, to the point that large collections of Poké Balls can be seen with no variation among them. Even [[Ash's Pikachu]], the most prominent Pokémon in the anime which spends all its time [[walking Pokémon|outside with Ash]], has a plain Poké Ball that differs from others only by the small yellow lightning bolt symbol on it, as seen in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''.

Despite this, the various other types of Poké Ball have been seen in the anime, usually to illustrate a special property about that particular ball. The lack of the different types is unsurprising, however, due to the fact that, when the anime was first created, the games themselves did not even keep track of the Poké Ball that a Pokémon was caught in, and thus, it made no difference in sending a Pokémon out.

The first time that a Poké Ball aside from the normal variation was seen was in [[EP035]], where Ash was given 30 Safari Balls in order to compete in the Safari Game. With these 30 Safari Balls, Ash attempted to catch various rare Pokémon; however, he only managed to capture an entire herd of {{AP|Tauros}}. They appeared in Safari Balls in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-Ké Corral]]''; afterward; however, whenever Ash uses one of his Tauros in a battle, it is sent out from a standard Poké Ball.

The [[GS Ball]] was the second of the variant Poké Balls to appear in the anime, this time with a special purpose. This mysterious ball was unable to be opened by [[Professor Ivy]], and served as the reason for Ash's journeys to the [[Orange Archipelago]] (to pick it up) and [[Johto]] (to deliver it to [[Kurt]]), so that what was contained within it could be discovered. {{p|Celebi}} was long rumored to be related to the ball, something which the [[Pokémon Adventures]] and game canons verify, while [[Masamitsu Hidaka|a director of the anime]] confirmed that, had it not been insisted that {{mov|Celebi|Celebi|4}} appear in a central role in [[M04|the fourth movie]], the GS Ball arc would have concluded with Celebi being released from the ball and traveling with Ash and his friends.
[[File:Poke Ball Recent Capture.png|thumb|240px|left|A Poké Ball after catching a Pokémon in the anime]]
Also related to Kurt, as in the games, the first non-standard Poké Ball variants, the [[Apricorn]] balls, made an appearance in the anime, and several were given to the members of the main cast. All three members of the main cast received Fast Balls in ''[[EP143|Going Apricorn!]]'', with {{an|Brock}} using his to catch a {{TP|Brock|Pineco}} shortly after receiving it. In the [[EP144|next episode]], Brock received a Heavy Ball, while Ash and {{an|Misty}} received Lure Balls. While Brock's Heavy Ball and Ash and Misty's Fast Balls would remain unused (and have not been mentioned since), both Ash and Misty would use their Lure Balls to capture a {{AP|Totodile}} and {{TP|Misty|Corsola}}, respectively. Another Heavy Ball appeared in ''[[AG065|Gulpin It Down]]'', where it was used to capture a giant {{p|Gulpin}}, though this was not the one belonging to Brock.

The [[Master Ball#In the anime|Master Ball]] itself has only appeared once as an actual Poké Ball, in ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]'', where it was used by [[Sullivan]] in a last resort attempt to catch a wild {{p|Whiscash}} called "[[Nero]]". Despite the fact that a Master Ball cannot be escaped from, the Whiscash ''swallowed'' the Master Ball, thus preventing capture, and disappeared back into the water. While not a Poké Ball itself, Misty owns a beach ball that is designed like the Master Ball, which can be seen in ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]'' and ''[[EP167|A Hot Water Battle]]''.
[[File:Ash Poké Ball.png|thumb|right|240px|Ash calling out a Pokémon]]
The Generation III specialty balls have only been seen in cameos, with only the Repeat Ball and Luxury Ball appearing, in the opening of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. These balls contained {{ga|Brendan}}'s {{p|Shiftry}} and {{p|Aggron}}, respectively.

The debut of most of the specialty balls, both from Generation III and IV, came in the ending [[Which One ~ Is It?]], which contained the first appearance of the Great Ball and Ultra Ball, as well as the first anime appearance of the Premier, Heal, Net, Dusk, Nest, Quick, Timer, and Dive Balls.

Many other Poké Balls have been shown in the anime; however, most of these are cosmetic alterations alone, such as Poké Balls with gold plating, diamond studded Poké Balls, and Poké Balls with special designs on them, usually to denote an organization.

Most notably, a broken Poké Ball, snapped in half at its rusted hinges, is kept by both {{Ash}} and {{Gary}}, symbolizing their rivalry.

In ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', it was shown that if a Trainer catches a Pokémon while they already have six on hand, it is automatically sent to the regional {{pkmn|professor}}. This was again demonstrated in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. ''[[BW018|Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest]]'' shows a major difference in what happens after a Pokémon is captured. Instead of being automatically sent to the regional Professor, the Poké Ball is sealed and the button becomes red. The Pokémon is kept inactive until it is switched out by another actively in the Trainer's party.

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Kanto}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Poké Ball EToP.png|thumb|right|A Poké Ball in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]]]
In the various [[Pokémon manga]], Poké Balls have been shown to appear differently, as an attempt to explain how a Trainer knows which Pokémon is in which ball, as most Pokémon manga series were, like the anime, developed at a time when the games could not keep track of the ball a Pokémon was contained in.

===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In the manga [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], the rules are more similar to the anime; however, Poké Balls are numbered on the outside, on the button, so that a Trainer knows which member of their team they are sending into battle.

It is also possible for a Pokémon to be placed inside a Poké Ball without it being owned by a Trainer. In ''[[ET11|Days of Gloom and Glory]]'', [[Meowzie]] steals a Poké Ball from a shop and puts her kitten in it so that it will not be hurt by a flood affecting the city.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Yellow Seadra Poké Ball.png|thumb|left|{{adv|Yellow}}'s {{p|Seadra}}'s Poké Ball in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, the tops of Poké Balls are semitransparent, allowing the Pokémon inside, which is miniaturized, to be seen through the ball, while the Pokémon can likewise see out of the ball it is contained in. In this manga, unlike in the anime, Pokémon already captured can be recaught in another Poké Ball, as is seen when {{adv|Red}} recatches Misty's Gyarados (though {{adv|Blue}} states that catching a Pokémon that belongs to another is not possible in ''[[PS050|Lapras Lazily]]''). Like in the anime and games, specialty balls do exist, and {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}} received a Friend Ball and Heavy Ball, respectively. It has also been shown that unlike the games, Pokémon placed in their balls recover from status conditions; however, like in the games, they do not recover health points. Additionally, the three original types of Poké Ball are used to identify the Trainer's rank; most Trainers keep their Pokémon in Poké Balls, [[Gym Leader]]s use Great Balls, and [[Elite Four]] members and [[Frontier Brain]]s use Ultra Balls.

==In the TCG==
[[File:Rocket Sneak Attack artwork.png|thumb|Ultra Ball]]
Several variants of Poké Ball have been released in card form in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], ranging from the standard variants found in the games and other media to variants specific to the TCG.

* The standard {{TCG ID|Jungle|Poké Ball|64}} card, which was the first released, debuted in the {{TCG|Jungle}} expansion and has since been featured in many others. It features a TCG-centric mechanic, requiring a {{TCG|coin}} flip to search the deck for a {{TCG|Pokémon}} to be put in the hand. Most of the Poké Ball variants, both adapted from the games and exclusive to the TCG, are similar to this, with several requiring coin flips to use their effect.
* The Ultra Ball can be seen in the artwork of {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Rocket's Sneak Attack|16}}, from the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} expansion. The [[Ultra Ball (Dark Explorers 102)|Ultra Ball]] would make it's actual first appearance, with its effect requiring you to discard 2 cards from your hand to search your deck for a Pokémon. The 'H' on this Ultra Ball is derived from its Japanese name, ''Hyper Ball''.
* The {{TCG ID|EX FireRed & LeafGreen|Great Ball|92}}, which first appeared in the {{TCG|EX FireRed & LeafGreen|TCG expansion}} coinciding with the {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|remakes}} of the [[Generation I]] games, is somewhat of an upgrade to the Poké Ball, and does not require the coin flip that the Poké Ball does, instead restricting the search of Pokémon to Basic Pokémon. Later, in {{TCG|Emerging Powers}}, {{TCG ID|Emerging Powers|Great Ball|93}}'s effect was changed to have you instead search the top 7 cards of your deck for any 1 Pokémon card & put it in your hand.
* The [[Master Ball (Gym Challenge 116)|Master Ball]], first appearing in the {{TCG|Gym Challenge}} expansion, and in the games the most powerful of the Poké Balls, provides a vastly different effect than the standard. Rather than searching the entire deck, only the top seven cards may be searched. One {{TCG|Pokémon}} found in these seven can be put into the hand, while the rest must be shuffled back into the deck.
* Debuting in the {{TCG|Skyridge}} expansion, the {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Lure Ball|128}} is different from the basic Poké Balls in that it draws from the {{TCG|discard pile}} rather than the deck. For each heads flipped, with a maximum of three, an {{TCG|Evolution card}} can be returned from the discard pile and put into the hand. It has not appeared since.
* Also debuting in Skyridge, the {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Friend Ball|126}}, another [[Apricorn]] Ball, has a unique effect entirely, allowing the user to search their deck for a Pokémon of the same {{TCG|type}} as one of the opponent's Pokémon, making it effective in decks that typically match up well against their own type. It also has not appeared since.
* The {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Fast Ball|124}} allows the player to go through their deck, turning over cards one at a time until they find the first evolution card, and then taking that into their hand, shuffling afterward. Like the other two Apricorn Balls, it debuted in Skyridge and has not appeared since.
* The {{TCG ID|Great Encounters|Premier Ball|101}}, debuting in the {{TCG|Great Encounters}} expansion, is special, much as in the games, and allows the player to search either the deck ''or'' the discard pile for a {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}} to put into their hand.
* The {{TCG ID|Stormfront|Luxury Ball|86}}, first found in the {{TCG|Stormfront}} expansion, is among the rarest of the Poké Ball varieties in the games, though its catch rate is the same as that of a normal Poké Ball. Likewise it is so with the TCG, allowing a non-{{TCG|Pokémon LV.X|LV.X}} Pokémon to be searched from the deck, but only if another Luxury Ball card is not in the discard pile.
* The {{TCG ID|Mysterious Treasures|Quick Ball|114}} released in the {{TCG|Mysterious Treasures}} expansion has a similar effect to the Fast Ball released in Skyridge, allowing the player to uncover cards from their deck until they find a Pokémon. An expansion of the Fast Ball's use, any Pokémon can be found, though this may prove an issue if the player is looking for an Evolution card specifically and finds a Basic Pokémon first.
* The {{TCG ID|Mysterious Treasures|Dusk Ball|110}}, also first found in Mysterious Treasures, features an effect somewhat opposite from the Master Ball's: Instead of the top seven cards being searched, only the bottom seven cards may be, and a Pokémon found there may be put into the player's hand.
* The {{TCG ID|Next Destinies|Heavy Ball|88}}, first found in {{TCG|Next Destinies}}, allows the player to search through their deck for a pokemon who has a retreat cost of 3 or more & put put it in their hand, whereas the {{TCG ID|Next Destinies|Level Ball|89}}, also found in {{TCG|Next Destinies}}, allows them to do the same with a Pokemon that has 90 HP or less.

==In the Super Smash Bros. series==
The Pokémon series is represented in the {{sbw|Super Smash Bros. series}} by a Poké Ball icon. The first two games show the Poké Ball with both halves and the center filled in, while the third goes with Generation IV's redesigned icon with only the top half filled in.

[[File:SSBB Poke Ball.png|thumb|right|Render of a Poké Ball from [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
Poké Balls in their base design are an item in the Super Smash Bros. series. First appearing in the original game, they can be picked up and thrown by the characters to do damage, and, on striking the ground, release a random Pokémon. In the original, the Pokémon that can be released are {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Koffing}}, {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, or {{p|Starmie}}. In [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]], the listing changes, and now the Pokémon released include Generation II Pokémon, with {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Weezing}}, {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Staryu}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Marill}}, {{p|Unown}}, {{p|Wobbuffet}}, {{p|Scizor}}, {{p|Porygon2}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, or {{p|Celebi}} appearing. {{p|Ditto}} was also planned to appear, acting as a clone of the character who released it for a short while, but was dummied out of the final game and can only be accessed through [[cheating]], where it does nothing. In the third installment, [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]] Pokémon were added, and now {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Staryu}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Wobbuffet}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Torchic}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Gulpin}}, {{p|Metagross}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Piplup}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, {{p|Munchlax}}, {{p|Weavile}}, or {{p|Manaphy}} can be released from a Poké Ball that is thrown.

Also, in the Subspace Emissary, Pokémon Trainer is shown to push the button on the Poké Ball to send out the Pokémon; this has not been shown in the anime.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] Trophy information===
''These balls are used to catch and contain wild Pokémon. Most Pokémon must be weakened in some way before they can be caught, but once they're inside a Poké Ball, they enjoy their new home, since Poké Balls contain an environment specially designed for Pokémon comfort. [[Master Ball]]s are the strongest type.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] Trophy information===
''"An item used for capturing Pokémon and calling them out into battle. Pokémon live in these items which despite appearances, actually contain a wide, comfortable Pokémon-friendly world inside them. In Super Smash Bros., Pokémon give temporary support to who calls them out. You never know which you will get, but some are devastatingly powerful."''

==Other variants==
The following Poké Ball variants are found outside of the standard games. They are often very unusual compared to the 26 types found in the games, and it is sometimes questionable whether or not they even qualify as Poké Balls. Many have separate articles, where their unique properties are described in greater detail.

===In the games===
* [[Pester Ball]]s: These objects, which appear similar to Poké Balls at a glance, are not used to catch Pokémon, and instead will release a Pokémon repellent on contact. They are only found in {{g|Snap}}.
* The [[GS Ball]] is an event item that appears only in {{game|Crystal}}, where it was part of a giveaway on the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]], much as event items are given out in [[Generation IV]] games over the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. It was not used to catch any Pokémon, and was placed in the [[key items]] pocket. If given to [[Kurt]] for inspection, it will activate an event where the player can catch a {{p|Celebi}} in [[Ilex Forest]].
* A [[Snag Ball]] is a Poké Ball variant that has been "unlocked" by the Snag Machine, allowing it to [[snagging|snag]] an already [[caught Pokémon]] during a {{pkmn|battle}}. While it is ''able'' to be used on any Pokémon, [[Rui]] will only allow [[Wes]] to use it on [[Shadow Pokémon]], while [[Michael]]'s Aura Reader will render the Snag Machine inoperable when a Pokémon other than a Shadow Pokémon is targeted.
* Typing Balls are used in [[Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure]]. They are thrown after one successfully types a Pokémon's name. It has the overall design like that of a normal Poké Ball, only having an additional vertical line at the bottom, resembling letter "T".

===In the anime===
* A green Poké Ball appeared in ''[[EP001|Pokémon! I Choose You!]]''. Interestingly, the cover of the book {{OBP|Grass Pokédex|book}} greatly resembles this Poké Ball, and is labeled as a Safari Ball.
** In addition to this; the artwork of {{ga|Brendan}}, in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, features Brendan holding a green Poké Ball.
* Several objects were used to contain and control Pokémon before Poké Balls themselves were developed. Large monumental objects have been shown several times in episodes to be containers for large ancient Pokémon, as seen most notably in ''[[EP072|The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]''. Smaller objects have also been used, such as the staff belonging to [[Sir Aaron]], which contained his partner, {{mov|Lucario|Lucario|8}}, until {{Ash}} released it in the current era. Special armor developed by [[Marcus]] was used to control Pokémon in ancient [[Michina Town]], though it did not directly ''contain'' the Pokémon; unlike other methods of using Pokémon, these Pokémon were enslaved, instead of befriended, and they turned against him the moment the armor was broken.
* {{an|Mewtwo}} had a collection of strange Poké Balls in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', which incorporated an eye into their design, and were used primarily as a means of capture of Pokémon to be cloned. These balls had no trouble catching Pokémon which were already captured—even if they were already inside of Poké Balls. One of these devices is notably the only Poké Ball that [[Ash's Pikachu]] has ever been seen being drawn into during the entire series. They have been called by several names by fans, such as "Mewtwo Balls" and "Clone Balls".
* [[Molly Hale]], whose imagination caused the power of the {{mov|Unown|Unown|3}} to change the world around them, was able to use strange, crystalline Poké Balls when she challenged {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]''. The Pokémon sent from these appeared normally, but dissolved into crystal, rather than being recalled. These crystal Poké Balls only appeared when used by her imagined older selves, and do not appear to actually exist.
* A special variant of Poké Ball, the Lake Ball, was used during the [[Seaking Catching Day|Seaking Catching Competition]] in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''; this is viewed by many to be similar to the Sport Ball used in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]]. They appear as blue and white Poké Balls, with a fish pattern around the edge, and a yellow arrow on the top and bottom of the ball. They don't shake after capture, implying an automatic catch.
* Older Poké Balls have also appeared in the anime, specifically the one carried by [[Sammy]] in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'', which was colored differently, and it had a knob that needed to be twisted before the Pokémon inside could be sent out. While it is unknown how these types were manufactured, it is likely that they were made by hand using Apricorns, prior to the standardization and mass production of modern-day Poké Balls.
* The [[Iron-Masked Marauder]], an agent of [[Team Rocket]], used special [[Dark Ball]]s that corrupted Pokémon caught inside them and made them into mindless servants of the Trainer, as well as raising their power significantly. Multiple Pokémon were caught in these Poké Balls, including the legendary {{mov|Celebi|Celebi|4}} and a powerful {{p|Tyranitar}}. They seem capable of catching any Pokémon without fail.
* As in the games, the [[GS Ball]] appeared in the anime, and was the primary motivation for Ash's trip to the [[Orange Archipelago]], where he would compete in his second Pokémon League. It also served as the catalyst for his journey to [[Johto]], as he needed to deliver the ball to [[Kurt]]. Former director [[Masamitsu Hidaka]] revealed that a shelved storyline, that would have concluded the GS Ball's arc, involved a {{p|Celebi}} that would have traveled with Ash and his friends through at least part of Johto. The storyline was viewed as redundant after the decision was made to introduce Celebi in the fourth movie instead.
* In ''[[AG104|Claydol, Big and Tall]]'', the "Stone Ball", a huge Poké Ball made of stone used to keep an evil, giant {{p|Claydol}} that levied destruction everywhere. This Poké Ball is about the size of a 2-story house.
* In ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'', a specially marked Poké Ball, called the "Fishing Poké Ball", was used in the fake fishing contest set up by {{TRT}}. This Poké Ball highly resembled the regular red and white Poké Ball, except that it had a dark fish mark on its red part.

===In the manga===
====Pokémon Adventures====
In addition to various Poké Balls introduced in the games, Pokémon Adventures also has several Trainers modifying their Poké Balls to suit their fighting styles

* [[Bruno]] has modified his Poké Balls so that they are fitted onto the ends of his nunchucks. By swinging them quickly and throwing the nunchuck forward, Bruno can have his Pokémon quickly attack his opponent, giving him the advantage.
* [[Koga]] and his daughter [[Janine]] modified their Poké Balls into shuriken to fit their ninja theme. In addition to being used as weapons, they can also be used to have their Pokémon pop up from different locations to surprise the opponent or to hold items to help an ally.
* [[Bugsy]] had [[Kurt]] modify his Butterfly net into something he calls a Capture Net. His net has a Poké Ball nested into the middle of it. The bag of the net is made of the same material of the inside of a Poké Ball. Once a Pokémon is covered in the bag, they will automatically be sucked into the Poké Ball.
* [[Falkner]] has modified his Poké Balls into boomerangs using the feathers of his {{p|Skarmory}}. Because of Skarmory's feathers being transparent, they have the tendency to turn invisible, confusing enemies when Falkner throws them in random directions only for them to turn around and go straight for them.

===In the TCG===
* The {{TCG ID|Expedition|Dual Ball|139}} is merely two Poké Balls together, and has a similar effect to using two plain Poké Ball cards, requiring two coin flips to search for up to two Pokémon, depending on how many heads appear.
* The {{TCG ID|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua|Team Magma Ball|80}} is [[Team Magma]]'s Poké Ball variant, found only in the {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} expansion. It works similarly to a Poké Ball, however, it only can be used to find Team Magma's Pokémon, and will still allow a player to find a Pokémon, though only a {{TCG|Basic Pokémon|Basic one}}, if the coin flip results in tails.
* The {{TCG ID|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua|Team Aqua Ball|75}} is [[Team Aqua]]'s Poké Ball variant, also found only in the {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} expansion. It works ''exactly'' the same as the Team Magma Ball, with the exception that it can only search out Team Aqua's Pokémon instead.
* The {{TCG ID|EX Team Rocket Returns|Rocket's Poké Ball|89}} is the [[Team Rocket]] variation on the Poké Ball, found in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion. Unlike others, no coin flip is required, and it simply allows the player to search for a {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}.

==Items==
{{main|Item#Obtaining items|Item}}
[[File:Itemball.png|thumb|200px|left|{{ga|Red}} finds an item ball on {{rt|2|Kanto}}]]
[[File:Rice Ball Poké Ball.png|right|200px|thumb|Ash catches a [[rice ball]] thrown by a wild {{p|Mankey}}]]
In both the anime and games, it has been shown that [[item]]s can be contained in Poké Balls, apparently able to be captured in much the same way as a Pokémon. The anime has used this as a gag on several occasions, most notably in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', where Ash accidentally catches a rice ball when he throws a Poké Ball in an attempt to catch a wild Mankey.

Items contained in Poké Balls have been present from the very first games, with many items that are found on the field being found in Poké Balls in conspicuous locations. These items are sometimes important, and usually will be among the required items for pickup along the way. Sometimes, even Poké Ball variants can be found in item balls, though it may be that the item ball itself is supposed to represent the ball that is found. Many other items, however, are hidden, and are not in item balls, instead being directly on the field, and can be found more easily using an [[Itemfinder]] or Dowsing Machine.

These are artwork of the items as seen in the [[Pokémon Dream World]]

==Trivia==
* While any Pokémon species can be caught by any Poké Ball, due to Pokémon distribution, no Pokémon species can legitimately be in all of the 26 in-game Poké Ball variants. The Pokémon that come the closest are the {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Venonat}} families, as they are found in the wild in all five generations, and can be obtained in the [[Pokémon Dream World]]; the only Ball they cannot be legitimately contained in is the Cherish Ball, as they have not not been given out as an event Pokémon during Generation IV or V.
* In {{g|Pinball}}, the Poké Balls serve as the balls in the machine; they can be used to capture Pokémon and are upgraded depending on the multiplier bonus at the time.
* Many of the types of Poké Ball introduced in [[Generation III]] function similarly to those introduced in [[Generation II]]: the Nest Ball, like the Level Ball, is better if used on Pokémon of lower levels, the Net and Dive Balls are both useful against Pokémon found while in the water, much like the Lure Ball, and the Luxury Ball raises a Pokémon's [[friendship]] quickly, similarly to a Friend Ball. Excluding the Sport Ball, which many see as a parallel to the Safari Ball which made its return in Generation III, the specialty Balls made by the Devon Corporation in Hoenn number seven, the same amount as the Apricorn Balls made by Kurt.
* In Generation II, the Park Ball's name is written as one word on the menu, rather than as two, as the rest of the Poké Balls are. This is due to the size limitation placed on the text by the [[Game Boy Color]]'s small screen. The Generation IV Park Ball does not have this issue, as [[Nintendo DS]] screens are wider and the font used is thinner.
* In some early artwork for {{game|Red and Green|s}}, Poké Balls are shown on the ground in two pieces while the Pokémon are in battle, rather than in the more familiar hinged form they take now. This may be a carryover from when Pokémon was known as Capsule Monsters, as the Poké Ball sprites in Generation I also do not show the button on the ball. In [[Generation II]], Poké Balls split in half when capturing a Pokémon as part of their animation, while the anime had been using the hinge style since the very first episode.
* Poké Balls are inspired by the capsules for {{wp|gashapon}} machines, which contain small, handheld toys.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver and the {{Trading Card Game}}, Lure Balls are shown to have a green outer coloring; however, in official artwork and the anime, they are shown to have a blue outer coloring.
** However, in Generation V, the Lure Ball has both its bag sprite, status screen sprite, and battle animation altered to the official blue color.
* Similarly, the Fast Ball is shown to be red in official art; however, it is orange in its bag and status screen sprites, and only appears red in battle in Generation V.
* Item description data for the Safari Ball in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and {{2v2|Black|White}} is unchanged from {{v2|Platinum}}, hence its description still states that it can only be used within the [[Great Marsh]].
* While most Poké Balls cannot capture Pokémon that have already been caught, there are some types that can easily catch a Pokémon that already is owned. These are usually rare or use-restricted balls.
** The Park Ball, which is used to capture Pokémon migrated from a Generation III game to a Generation IV game, is one of these. It reverts to the original ball used to catch the migrated Pokémon in the Summary screen.
** In the anime, Mewtwo's "Mewtwo Balls", seen only in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', can catch any Pokémon despite being owned. These Balls have been shown to even catch owned Pokémon even when inside of their Poké Balls. After the Pokémon's DNA is extracted through Mewtwo's cloning device, "Mewtwo Balls" automatically release the caught Pokémon.
** [[Snag Ball]]s, exclusive to {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD}}, are used for catching [[Shadow Pokémon]], all of which are already owned.
* While the Apricorn Balls and the Sport Ball exist in the coding of the [[Generation V]] games, they are completely unobtainable. If they are hacked into the bag, they cannot be held by a Pokémon, much as in HeartGold and SoulSilver, and will not be recognized by the game as Poké Balls for in-battle use. Despite this, a Pokémon caught in one of these Poké Balls in HeartGold and SoulSilver will retain the Ball in Generation V.
** The sprite color of the Lure Ball was altered in Pokémon Black and White, changing its base color to a light blue color as opposed to the green it had in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
** The Moon Ball, while it returns in HeartGold and SoulSilver and appears in the coding of Generation V, cannot legitimately contain Pokémon in the {{p|Skitty}} and {{p|Munna}} families, even though both evolve with the Moon Stone. This is due to their unavailability in the wild in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
* The Premier Ball is the only variety of Poké Ball so far whose name approaches the character limit for item names.
* In Generation II, after catching a Pokémon, the Poké Ball's color palette changes to that of the Pokémon that was just caught. It then changes back to normal thereafter.
* Generation V introduced fewer types of Poké Balls than any other generation, only introducing one.
* The Safari Ball has a catching animation programmed into Black and White despite not being legitimately able to be used, as there is no Safari Zone.
* Both the Safari Ball and {{tt|Sport Ball|Park Ball in Generation II and the anime}} appeared in the anime prior to sprites being introduced for items in the games, in [[EP035]] and [[EP161]], respectively. In these appearances, their designs were vastly different from their later-introduced in-game sprites.
*In [[Generation V]], since {{m|Dive}} regained its HM status, Dive Balls were programmed to have a higher catch rate on Pokémon that live underwater. However, since there are no wild Pokémon underwater in [[Unova]], it is impossible to attain the highest catch rate for the Dive Ball in Generation V.

'''Ash's Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''サトシのピカチュウ''' ''Satoshi's Pikachu'') is the [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] obtained by {{Ash}} on his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]].

==History==
[[File:Ash Pikachu debut.png‎|thumb|200px|right|{{Ash}} and Pikachu meeting for the first time]]
In the first episode of the [[Pokémon anime]], ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', Ash woke up late the day he was supposed to go to {{DL|Professor Oak's Laboratory|In the anime|Professor Oak's Laboratory}} to obtain his first Pokémon. When he arrived at the lab, the three available starter Pokémon, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}}, had already been taken by other Trainers who arrived earlier. Seeing that Ash was disappointed, Professor Oak gave him Pikachu, which did not take a liking to his new Trainer, constantly zapping him and anyone else nearby. He refused to go into his [[Poké Ball]], and when Ash failed to catch a {{p|Pidgey}}, he laughed at him. However, by the end of the episode, Ash gained Pikachu's trust by protecting him from an attack by a flock of {{p|Spearow}} and rushing him to the [[Pokémon Center]]. Pikachu and Ash soon became inseparable. In ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', Ash gave Pikachu his consent to remain in a forest filled with Pikachu, but Pikachu decided to stay by Ash's side.

In general, Pikachu as a species are not particularly powerful, but Ash's Pikachu is an anomaly, overcoming odds in {{pkmn|battle}} numerous times. In ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', he defeated [[Brock's Steelix|Brock's Onix]] with an {{type|Electric}} attack that triggered the sprinkler system causing Onix to be drenched in water, one of its weaknesses. In ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', Pikachu fought [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} and lost. During a resulting hospital stay, he refused to become Raichu's equal by evolving via a {{evostone|Thunderstone}}, and in the second battle, Pikachu overcame Raichu by using his superior speed. The same situation happened in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]'' where Pikachu reaffirmed his decision not to evolve. In ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', {{MTR}} remarked that Pikachu's power "far exceeds its evolutionary level". Ash's Pikachu has also defeated very powerful Pokémon that Ash's other Pokémon were unable to, such as {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Metagross}}. He has helped Ash win innumerable battles and [[Gym]] and {{pkmn|League}} matches.

[[File:Ash DP 2.png|thumb|120px|left|Ash and Pikachu, as seen in {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} artwork]]
However, at times, {{p|Pikachu}} has lived up to his species' frail and brittle strengths, particularly in Gym battles where he was defeated with relative ease by his opponent; for example, he was overpowered very easily by [[Lt. Surge's Raichu]], [[Sabrina's Kadabra]], [[Blaine's Magmar]], [[Bugsy]]'s {{p|Scyther}}, [[Whitney's Miltank]], [[Chuck]]'s {{p|Poliwrath}}, [[Roark's Rampardos]], [[Fantina's Drifblim]], and [[Cress]]'s {{p|Panpour}}. He also drew against [[Winona]]'s {{p|Pelipper}} and [[Norman]]'s {{p|Vigoroth}}, and struggled against [[Crasher Wake]]'s {{p|Floatzel}}. Furthermore, he has lost twice to Trip's Servine, despite Trip being a starting Trainer and recently having obtained Servine.

Since Ash's first encounter with {{TRT}} in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', Pikachu has been pursued by the trio of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Throughout the series, it has been Jessie, James and Meowth's desire to steal this Pokémon from Ash and present him to [[Giovanni (anime)|their boss]]. To do this, they have come up with many schemes. Though they have tried and continue to try hundreds of times, every last one of their plots fail, usually with the help of Ash, his friends, other Trainers, an [[Officer Jenny]], or even themselves (such as in the [[DP001|first episode]] of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}).

[[File:Ash Pikachu Poké Ball.png|thumb|right|200px|Pikachu's Poké Ball, with a lightning bolt mark, at Professor Oak's Laboratory]]
Pikachu became the second non-legendary Pokémon to defeat a [[legendary Pokémon]] in the anime after {{AP|Charizard}}, beating {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}'s {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regice}} in ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'', giving Ash his final [[Symbol|Frontier Symbol]].

Pikachu is also the only one of Ash's Pokémon to accompany him to the [[Hoenn]] and [[Unova]] regions, and was intended to be the only Pokémon to accompany him to [[Sinnoh]] before [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] was discovered to have stowed away on the ship Ash was taking. Up until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], Pikachu was the only {{type|Electric}} Pokémon in the anime owned by a main character.

Even with his high level of electrical power, Pikachu has not stopped learning new attacks. Upon learning that [[Roxanne]], the Rustboro Gym Leader used Rock-types, Ash had Pikachu begin learning {{m|Iron Tail}} in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]''. After training hard, Pikachu finally perfected it in ''[[AG016|The Winner by a Nosepass]]'', where he used it to defeat Roxanne's {{p|Nosepass}} and earn Ash his first Hoenn Badge. In addition to giving Pikachu an advantage over Rock-types, Iron Tail has allowed Pikachu to defeat many powerful opponents. In ''[[AG150|May's Egg-Cellent Adventure]]'', during a battle with Team Rocket, Ash ordered Pikachu to do a {{m|Quick Attack}}. Much to the surprise of Ash and his friends, the Quick Attack morphed into {{m|Volt Tackle}} which sent Team Rocket blasting off. Until ''[[BW020|Dancing With the Ducklett Trio!]]'', it has been one of Pikachu's signature moves. Also in the same episode, Pikachu learned {{m|Electro Ball}} while battling a trio of annoying {{p|Ducklett}}. Not only that, Pikachu has used his Ability, {{a|Static}}, a few times in the anime.

In Hoenn, Pikachu learned how to surf. He also learned how to punch from Ash in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''. In Sinnoh, Ash used him during the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]].

In Sinnoh, he defeated [[Roark]]'s {{p|Onix}} in the [[Oreburgh Gym]] rematch. Pikachu battled again in the [[Pastoria Gym]] battle, where he battled [[Crasher Wake]]'s {{p|Gyarados}} and defeated it with a Volt Tackle to the face. He also battled Crasher Wake's Floatzel for a moment, allowing {{AP|Buizel}} time to recover. In ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist!]]'', Pikachu lost to [[Fantina's Drifblim]] after a fierce battle.

[[File:Ash Pikachu Static.png‎|250px|left|thumb|Pikachu activating his {{a|Static}} Ability]]
Pikachu's next major battle after Fantina, was when he was used against [[Paul]] in ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''. First he went up against {{TP|Paul|Magmortar}}; however, when he attacked with Quick Attack, he was {{status|burn}}ed by Magmortar's {{a|Flame Body}} and Pikachu was recalled. Later, he went up against Paul's very powerful {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}} and {{status|Paralysis|paralyzed}} it with {{a|Static}}. This actually made things worse for Pikachu as being paralyzed activated Ursaring's {{a|Guts}} Ability, and Pikachu found himself completely outmatched by Ursaring's massive power and was defeated and thrown into [[Lake Acuity]], taking him out of the match as well as injuring him. This defeat meant that Ash had to defeat Paul's remaining five Pokémon with only {{AP|Chimchar|Infernape}}.

Later, in ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', Pikachu battled {{EF|Flint}}'s {{TP|Flint|Infernape}}, but he was defeated after a long fight.

In ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]'', Pikachu battled against [[Volkner]]'s {{p|Electivire}} and won, giving him his first victory over a Pokémon in the {{p|Electabuzz}} evolutionary line. However, he was defeated by Volkner's {{p|Luxray}}.

[[File:Ash Pikachu contest.png|thumb|220px|right|Pikachu performing in a Pokémon Contest]]
In the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]], Ash used Pikachu in his battle against Paul in ''[[DP186|Familiarity Breeds Strategy!]]''. He was used against Paul's {{p|Aggron}}, where he put up a good fight and weakened Aggron before he was recalled in place of Infernape. Pikachu was also used in the continuation of Ash's battle against Paul in ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]''. He went against Paul's {{p|Froslass}} where he was seen having some trouble at first, but by the end, he was able to pull through and defeat Froslass with a powerful Volt Tackle attack. This gave Pikachu his first win against one of Paul's Pokémon and also gave Ash the lead in the battle. In ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]'', he battled [[Paul's Electivire]], but had trouble due to Electivire's {{a|Motor Drive}} Ability, and was soon defeated by a {{m|Brick Break}}. In ''[[DP189|The Semi-Final Frontier!]]'', Pikachu was the last Pokémon chosen by Ash to battle {{si|Tobias}} in the semi-finals. Despite Ash losing five of his Pokémon, Pikachu tried its best to defeat Tobias's {{p|Latios}}. Almost none of the attacks hit or did any damage to Latios in the beginning, however, Pikachu finally managed to jump on top of Latios and used Thunderbolt several times before he was shaken off. As Pikachu was about to land, Latios used {{m|Luster Purge}}. Pikachu used Volt Tackle and Iron Tail, taking against the force of the Luster Purge. However, he was tied with Latios as both fainted. As Ash's last Pokémon also fainted, Tobias was crowned the winner of their battle.

Ash decided to just bring Pikachu to [[Unova]] with him, just like he did in [[Hoenn]]. In ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]'', Pikachu had an encounter with {{p|Zekrom}}, which unaware by Ash, caused Pikachu to lose his ability to use Electric-type moves. Ash finally noticed this when Pikachu battled [[Trip]]'s {{TP|Trip|Snivy|Serperior}}, losing in the process. In ''[[BW002|Enter Iris and Axew!]]'', he regained its ability to use Electric-type attacks and was used in battle which led to the capture of {{AP|Pidove|Unfezant}}. In ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]'', Ash used Pikachu in his Gym battle at the [[Striaton Gym]], where he faced [[Cress]] and his {{p|Panpour}}. Even though he tried his best, Pikachu was just not as fast as Panpour and was defeated without landing a single hit. In ''[[BW010|A Battle for Club Champ!]]'', he battled Trip's {{p|Tranquill}}, who had already taken out [[Ash's Oshawott]] and {{AP|Tepig}}. He took a beating from multiple {{m|Aerial Ace}}s, but showed Trip the power of his electrical attacks by defeating Tranquill with Volt Tackle. He then battled Snivy again, who by then had evolved into {{p|Servine}}. However, despite not being incapacitated, he was once again defeated. In ''[[BW013|Minccino-Neat and Tidy!]]'', Ash used Pikachu in a battle against {{an|Bianca}} and her {{TP|Bianca|Pignite}}. Even though he had some trouble at first, Pikachu was able to pull through in the end and defeat Pignite with a powerful Volt Tackle.

[[File:Ash and his Pikachu.png|thumb|250px|left|Ash and Pikachu]]
In ''[[BW020|Dancing With the Ducklett Trio!]]'', a trio of {{p|Ducklett}} stole Ash's {{AP|hat}} and {{p|Sandile}}'s sunglasses. One of the Ducklett dropped an umbrella on Pikachu while he was about to use Thunderbolt. Pikachu was unable to release electricity because of it. While Sandile battled the three Ducklett, Pikachu joined the battle as well and after taking a direct hit from the Ducklett, Pikachu began releasing electricity and formed an {{m|Electro Ball}} and sent the Ducklett flying. Later on, he battled against the Sunglasses Sandile. Even though Sandile evolved into {{AP|Krokorok}}, Pikachu used Electro Ball and sent {{m|Stone Edge}} right back at {{p|Krokorok}} and he was sent flying.

Ash used Pikachu in his third Gym battle against Burgh at the [[Castelia Gym]] in ''[[BW023|Battling For The Love of Bug-Types!]]''. Pikachu went up against [[Burgh]]'s {{p|Leavanny}} and after a tough battle, Pikachu was able to win it with a powerful {{m|Iron Tail}} and {{m|Electro Ball}} combo.

In ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua and the Pokémon Knight!]]'' Pikachu played a movie role as Ash's assistant. He battled [[Iris's Axew]] in order to gain the power to defeat {{an|Cilan|the villain}} and his [[Cilan's Pansage|assistant]]. He succeeded with a Thunderbolt-Electro Ball combo. He later defeated the villain and rescued the princess.

Ash used Pikachu in the final round in the [[Club Battle]] in ''[[BW042|Club Battle Finale: A Hero's Outcome!]]'' against {{an|Iris}}. Pikachu went up against [[Iris's Excadrill]]. Pikachu had a very hard time battling Excadrill, as Excadrill is part {{t|Ground}} and Pikachu's {{t|Electric}} moves would have no effect on him. Pikachu did surprisingly well, however. Unfortunately, Pikachu fainted first, and Iris won the tournament.

In ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', when Ash couldn't choose who to use after {{AP|Palpitoad}} and {{AP|Snivy}} fainted, Pikachu got fed up and zapped him, Ash then chose to use Pikachu in his Gym Battle against [[Elesa]]. He went up against her powerful {{p|Emolga}}, who even though she knew {{m|Attract}}, Pikachu beat her with a single {{m|Quick Attack}}. Later, Pikachu battled Elesa's {{p|Tynamo}}, who only knew {{m|Tackle}}, but was still very strong. Yet Pikachu was able to beat Tynamo with a powerful {{m|Iron Tail}} attack, winning Ash the {{Badge|Bolt}}.

In ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'', Pikachu teamed up with [[Cilan's Stunfisk]] to battle {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}}. Stunfisk used his amazing jumping ability to get them both into the air so that they could launch a {{m|Thunderbolt}}—{{m|ThunderShock}} combination at the two legendary Pokémon. However, Pikachu was knocked off Stunfisk's back and his partner was then struck by a powerful {{m|Hammer Arm}}. Later in ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', Pikachu helped rescue the [[kami trio]] from {{TRT}}. He used Thunderbolt on [[Dr. Zager]]'s helicopter, joined by {{AP|Roggenrola|Boldore}}, Iris's Axew and {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} and Cilan's Pansage to cause the forcefield prisons trapping the trio to break.

In ''[[BW068|An Amazing Aerial Battle!]]'', Ash used Pikachu against [[Skyla]]'s {{p|Unfezant}} after [[Ash's Unfezant|Tranquill]] was recalled. While Pikachu's Electric-type attacks were evaded, he was eventually able to intercept Unfezant's Aerial Ace attack with his Iron Tail. Pikachu then launched an Electro Ball and defeated Unfezant. Pikachu stayed in the battle to fight Skyla's last Pokémon, {{p|Swanna}}. Pikachu's Electric-type attacks were blocked by Swanna's {{m|Aqua Ring}}, defending against the type advantage Pikachu held over it. However, using the hoops that Skyla had used in her pre-battle show, Pikachu was able to jump with Quick Attack to hit Swanna. Eventually, Swanna was able to hit Pikachu with a powerful {{m|Hurricane}} and a brutal {{m|Brave Bird}}, after which Ash deemed Pikachu unable to battle, although he tried to continue.

In ''[[BW084|Rocking the Virbank Gym! (Part 2)]]'', Ash chose Pikachu as his final Pokémon in his Gym battle with [[Roxie]] and her strongest Pokémon, {{p|Garbodor}}. Using its extendable arms, Garbodor tried to use {{m|DoubleSlap}} on Pikachu, but the Electric Mouse Pokémon was too fast for the Trash Heap Pokémon, and trying to reach him with all his dodging only caused Garbodor's arms to accidentally get tied together, allowing Pikachu to land a hit with Quick Attack. Garbodor tried to use its tied-up arms as a whip, but Pikachu was easily able to dodge them every time and strike back with a Thunderbolt. When Pikachu tried to use Iron Tail, Garbodor swung its arms upwards, repelling Pikachu and untying the arms. After several misses with {{m|Gunk Shot}}, Garbodor grabbed Pikachu, swung him up high and hit him repeatedly with DoubleSlap while falling. After this, Garbodor fired another Gunk Shot, this time hitting and also {{status|poison}}ing Pikachu. Ash was getting discouraged, but thanks to the encouraging words from Iris and Cilan, he and Pikachu decided to keep on going, despite the poison. To Ash's luck, all the [[physical move|physical contact]] Pikachu made with Garbodor, had caused Pikachu's Static Ability to activate and paralyze Garbodor. Despite still being able to withstand a Thunderbolt, the Trash Heap Pokémon was unable to take a hit from the following Electro Ball, and was knocked out, making Ash victorious and earning him his eighth and final Unova Badge, the {{badge|Toxic}}, thus allowing him to enter the [[Unova League]]. After the battle, Roxie admitted her defeat, and gave Pikachu a [[Pecha Berry]] to cure him from the poisoning.

In [[BW093]], Pikachu battled [[Dawn's Quilava]] in a friendly battle before Dawn left Unova for Johto. He was hit by a {{m|Swift}} attack before missing with Quick Attack, though he managed to dodge Quilava's {{m|Flame Wheel}}. Pikachu attempted both Electro Ball and Iron Tail, both of which were stopped by his opponent's {{m|Flamethrower}}. After their Quick Attack and Flame Wheel clashed in mid-air, [[Cynthia]] stopped the match.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Pikachu Bad Mood.png|thumb|250px|right|Pikachu in a bad mood]]
Pikachu is extremely loyal to Ash, and while he is not always immediately trusting of strangers, he is generally friendly to humans and Pokémon alike. He acted as a guardian and big brother to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], and has been seen mediating and even breaking up fights among other Pokémon, such as in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]''. In ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', Pikachu, {{MTR}}, and Meowth's clone were the only Pokémon not to participate in the giant battle; Pikachu stood motionless as his [[Pikachutwo|clone]] repeatedly slapped his face. Contrary to his distrusting nature, Pikachu took a liking to Misty very early in the series, and he has retained this liking of Misty throughout the series, such as when he was very happy to see her in ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]''.

[[File:Pikachu loves ketchup.png|200px|thumb|left|Pikachu and his love of ketchup]]
However, even Pikachu has had exceptions to this rule. In ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]'', Pikachu was controlled by Butch and Cassidy, which caused him to become evil and disobey Ash's commands. During the Hoenn saga, Pikachu [[AG089|temporarily developed amnesia]] and sided with [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]] for a while. Later within the same series, Pikachu [[AG097|was]] [[AG098|possessed]] by the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Red Orb}} and controlled by {{p|Groudon}}, nearly causing a disaster. On several occasions, Pikachu has developed an "electric flu" causing him to become overcharged, and extremely powerful. During these instances, Pikachu will sometimes accidentally let off electric outbursts which can be set off on anyone, including Ash. In all of these cases, Pikachu did not intentionally mean harm upon anyone.

As shown in a handful of episodes, the first being ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', Pikachu has a special fondness for ketchup, but he will eat and enjoy almost any other human or Pokémon food. A running joke in the anime also seems to be the destruction of a female character's [[bicycle|bike]] with one of Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}s at the beginning of each series, which then causes her to {{ashfr|follow Ash}} for the remainder of the series. This has happened to {{an|Misty}}, {{an|May}}, and {{an|Dawn}} so far, but did not happen to {{an|Iris}}, since she doesn't have a bike. Instead, Pikachu shocked Iris herself.
{{bulbanews|Personality & Development: Ash's Pikachu}}
Pikachu, like his Trainer, is always happy to battle. He often tries his very best, but when he loses, he doesn't complain or feel bad about himself, especially when Ash reassures him. Ash and Pikachu are almost identical personality-wise, and thus are the perfect match for one another, and most others agree, with the exception of [[Burgundy]], who in ''[[BW019|A Connoisseur's Revenge!]]'' said that Ash had a terrible relationship with all of his Pokémon.

=====Moves improvised=====
[[File:{{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Ash Pikachu Leer EP009.png|2=Thunder Armor.png}}|thumb|right|250px|{{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Pikachu using "Leer"|2=Pikachu and Swellow using Thunder Armor}}]]
*'''Leer''' was first seen in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''. When [[Giselle]] called for {{p|Cubone}} to use Leer, Ash told Pikachu to "Leer right back" by making funny faces. It later used Leer in ''[[EP150|Hour of the Houndour]]''; however, this was the actual move, albeit, an [[Anime move errors|anime move error]] still.
*An attack where Pikachu stored electricity in his tail similar to {{m|Slam}} was used to defeat [[Lt. Surge's Raichu]] in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]''. A similar move, referred to as "Shocking Tail" by the MC, was used to defeat {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}'s {{p|Ditto}} in ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]''.
*'''Rocket Punch''' was a move that Pikachu used while "boxing" {{ka|Anthony}}'s {{p|Hitmonchan}} in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''. Pikachu glowed red and shot off his boxing gloves, leaving off a trail of smoke. Once the smoke disappears, Pikachu still has his boxing gloves on and flies towards Hitmonchan at high speed.
*'''[[Moves not in the Pokémon games|Thunder Armor]]''' was a one-time technique in the episode ''[[AG100|Solid as a Solrock]]'', Pikachu is seen using Thunder on himself while riding [[Ash's Swellow]]. This increased their attack power greatly, and they easily overpowered their opponents.
*'''Spin''', originally made by {{an|Dawn}} and first used by her Piplup and Buneary, was also used by Turtwig and Aipom to avoid attacks in the episode ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos We Watched!]]'', where he was able beat Roark and obtain the {{Badge|Coal}}.
*'''Swift-Quick Attack''' was a combination of {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}}'s twirling {{m|Swift}} and Pikachu's {{m|Quick Attack}} that was used in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]''. Aipom would use a twirling Swift that spins in the air and then Pikachu would jump in the Swift with Quick Attack and as it runs the Swift stars would be surrounding the white light from the Quick Attack.

*'''Volt Tail''', a combination of {{m|Volt Tackle}} and {{m|Iron Tail}}, was used in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]'' against [[Sho]]'s {{p|Raichu}} and once again in ''[[DP189|The Semi-Final Frontier!]]'' against {{si|Tobias}}'s {{p|Latios}}.
*'''[[Counter Shield]]''' can be used by Pikachu by utilizing {{m|Thunderbolt}}, similar to [[Ash's Buizel]] and {{AP|Infernape}} who can do the technique with their own moves.
*'''Hydro Volt Tackle''' is used as a finishing blow against [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]] in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]''. It is a combination of Pikachu's {{m|Volt Tackle}} and [[Dawn's Piplup]]'s {{m|Hydro Pump}} creating a massive Electric-Water shot that sent Team Rocket blasting off.
*'''Thunderbolt-Electro Ball''' is a combination used to power up {{m|Electro Ball}}, first seen in ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]''. Ash has Pikachu use {{m|Electro Ball}}, then tells him to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on it to significantly increase the size and power of {{m|Electro Ball}}.

{{bulbanews|Satoshi's Pikachu to be distributed via Wi-Fi}}
{{bulbanews|Toys 'R' Us to distribute Ash's Pikachu}}
In the main series, {{ga|Red's Pikachu}} is noticeably based on Ash's Pikachu: not only does {{ga|Red}} receive it from Professor Oak after his rival, Oak's grandson, takes the last starter Pokémon in {{game|Yellow}}, but it [[walking Pokémon|follows Red around]] rather than being kept in a Poké Ball. In [[Generation II]] and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Pikachu is the highest-leveled member of Red's team when he is encountered at Mt. Silver, and the highest leveled Pokémon owned by a Trainer in the entire series excluding battle arenas. His moves, notably in HeartGold and SoulSilver, are the four moves most used by Ash's Pikachu at the time of the games' release.

A Japanese event distributed an in-game representation of Ash's Pikachu via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and at participating Japanese {{wp|McDonald}}'s locations which was held from July 15th through August 10, 2010. This Pikachu was distributed at participating American {{wp|Toys 'R' Us}} locations from January 30 to February 13, 2011, and Canadian Toys 'R' Us locations from February 9 to February 20, 2011. Unlike Ash's Pikachu, this Pikachu does not reject the Thunderstone, and can be evolved at any time.
Pikachu was one of {{Ash}}'s three Pokémon in {{g|Puzzle League}}. The Pikachu in the Super Smash Bros. series may be based on Ash's Pikachu.

==In the manga==
===In the Ash and Pikachu manga===
Ash's Pikachu is a starring character in the [[Ash and Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}} series, which is based on the [[Johto]] saga of the Pokémon anime.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[File:Ash Pikachu EToP.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash's Pikachu in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
Ash's Pikachu is a starring character in the {{pkmn|manga}} series
[[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], which is loosely based on the Pokémon anime. Pikachu appears in every chapter of the manga.

Like in the anime, Pikachu was [[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]]'s first Pokémon. However, Ash did not receive Pikachu from {{an|Professor Oak}} - instead, he finds Pikachu under the floorboards of his home, chewing on wires to eat the electricity. His [[Delia Ketchum|mother]] asks him to take Pikachu outside, but when [[Gary Oak]] taunts Ash about how he has not yet become a [[Pokémon Trainer]], Ash decides to keep Pikachu as his first Pokémon.

Like in the anime, Pikachu was originally unwilling to obey Ash, but after Ash protects Pikachu from a flock of wild {{p|Spearow}} and a {{AP|Fearow}}, Pikachu gains respect for Ash, and after Ash defeats Brock, he is named Jean Luc Pikachu (Japanese '''ジャン＝リュックピカチュウ''' ''Jean-Luc Pikachu'').

Later on, when Ash is in a Gym battle with Misty, Pikachu is petrified by the sight of her Gyarados and does not battle, while in his Gym battle with Sabrina, it is easily bested by her Abra.

Pikachu likes {{an|Misty}} and greets her enthusiastically whenever she appears, often ignoring Ash in the process.

Ash's Pikachu shows a video to {{MPJ|Pikachu}} of him bouncing a [[Poké Ball]] on his head in [[One Hundred Fifty-One]].

[[File:Pikachu wobbuffet.png|thumb|right|200px|Pikachu as a {{p|Wobbuffet}} in ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere to Go!]]'']]
* Pikachu is {{Ash}}'s only {{type|Electric}} Pokémon and was the only Electric-type owned by a main character in the anime until the capture of {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} by {{an|Dawn}}.
** Despite multiple main characters currently owning {{Type|Electric}} Pokémon, Pikachu is still the only one of them which is the member of [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|an evolution family]].
* For [[DP013]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about {{Ash}}'s Pikachu. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about him: パートナー　サトシとピカチュウ　いいかんじ ''Partners Satoshi and Pikachu: a pleasant feeling''.
* Pikachu was the first of {{Ash}}'s Pokémon to disobey him. Other Pokémon that would do so, and are better remembered for their disobedience than Pikachu, are {{AP|Primeape}} and {{AP|Charizard}}.
* Pikachu is the second Pokémon in the entire {{pkmn|anime}} series to have managed to defeat a [[legendary Pokémon]], which he did by defeating {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}'s {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regice}} in ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]''.
** Pikachu is also the only Pokémon in the entire series that has been able to defeat two [[legendary Pokémon]], being able to take out Brandon's {{p|Regice}} in ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'' and {{si|Tobias}}'s {{p|Latios}} in ''[[DP189|The Semi-Final Frontier!]]'', although in the latter case, it was a sacrificial win, as Pikachu knocked himself out in the process.
* In ''[[DP142|Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!]]'' it was confirmed that Pikachu is [[gender|male]]. Voice actress [[Ikue Ohtani]] stated prior to this episode that the writers had intended to keep Pikachu's gender ambiguous so the fanbase can connect with him more easily.{{fact}}
** Pikachu's [[gender]] had already been assumed male in the dub, where male pronouns such as "he" were used to refer to Pikachu.
* Pikachu is the only Pokémon of {{Ash}}'s to be used in every Gym battle in a [[Johto|region]].
* In {{pmin|Latin America}}, {{wp|Cartoon Network}} has a "Biografía Toon" (''Toon Biography'') segment, which consists of biographies and histories of cartoon characters. This segment has done a two-part feature on {{Ash}}'s Pikachu. According to the segment, Pikachu is the result of an experiment conducted by {{an|Professor Oak}} and allegedly destroyed the lab where he was created in a momentary loss of control.
* ''[[DP170|An Elite Coverup!]]'' has been the only time when {{Ash}} does not use Pikachu against an [[Elite Four]] member.
* Pikachu seems to have a talent for mimicking Pokémon, as seen from his performance during [[DP033|a cosplay competition]]. He will occasionally use pantomime to specify what he is talking about. He can contort his face and his ears to imitate {{Ash}}, his {{AP|Turtwig|Torterra}}, {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, among others. This capability of Pikachu's was also featured during part of the credits of ''[[PK12|Gotta Dance]]''.
* Pikachu is the first evolved Pokémon obtained by Ash, although at the time Ash obtained Pikachu, he did not yet have a {{p|Pichu|pre-evolved form}}.

===Pikachu's language===
[[File:Pikachu as ash.png|200px|thumb|right|Pikachu imitating {{Ash}} in ''[[EP110|The Stun Spore Detour]]'' ]]
Some of [[Pokémon language|Pikachu's speech]] is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. (In ''[[DP115|Stealing The Conversation!]]'', {{TRT}} refers to this language as "PikaSpeak," however, this most likely isn't official.) For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
* Pi-Kachu: He says this during the sponsor spots in the original Japanese.
* Pikachu-Pi: ''{{an|Misty|Kasumi}}'' (Misty)
* Pika-Chu: ''{{an|Brock|Takeshi}}'' (Brock)
* Pikaka: ''{{an|Dawn|Hikari}}'' (Dawn)
* PiPiPi: ''{{TP|Misty|Togepy|Togepi}}'' (Togepi)
* PikakaPika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
* PikaPika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle), ''[[Ash's Staraptor|Mukuhawk]]'' (Staraptor), ''[[Ash's Infernape|Goukazaru]]'' (Infernape) or '' [[Ash's Palpitoad|Gamagaru]]'' (Palpitoad)
* Pi-kachu: ''[[Dawn's Piplup|Pochama]]'' (Piplup)
* PiPi-kachu: ''{{TRT|Rocket-dan}}'' (Team Rocket).
* Pi-Pikachu: ''[[Gotta catch 'em all!|Get da ze!]]'' He says this after Ash wins a Badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar. Note that when Iris caught Emolga, Axew said Ax-Axew, so Pikachu may not be the only one to use this phrase.
* Chaa: Anything he says happily.

'''Home is Where the Start Is!''' (Japanese: '''旅の終わり、そして旅のはじまり！''' ''End of a Journey, and Then the Start of a Journey!'') is the 192nd and final episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 466th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on September 14, 2006 and in the United States on March 3, 2007.
{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
The episode begins out by recapping the {{pkmn|Contest}} which took place [[AG191|last episode]], {{TP|May|Eevee}}'s wonderful display of {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}'s intuitive use of {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Iron Tail}} are all shown before they recap the {{pkmn|battle}} between [[Ash's Sceptile]] and [[May's Blaziken]] and leaves it right after the explosion from the collision of the very powerful {{m|Overheat}} and {{m|SolarBeam}} [[Move|attacks]] launched from each {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

As the smoke clears we see that both {{Ash}} and {{an|May}} are left with the same amount of [[Appeals round|appeal]] points, the match is a tie. This is the best result for both Ash and May. They are both happy about this and the crowd gives them a huge cheer, as Ash and May meet in the center of the field and shake hands. [[Nurse Joy]] presents the [[Ribbon]] to Ash and May; however, she explains that there is only one Ribbon, so she doesn't know who to give it to, but Ash and May have an idea: May grabs the Ribbon, throws it in the air and Ash orders Sceptile to use {{m|Leaf Blade}} slicing the Ribbon in half so that both of them can share it.

Outside, later that evening, Ash, May, [[Max]], {{an|Brock}}, and all their Pokémon are sitting around a bench having some hard earned dinner. Brock places his freshly cooked stew on the bench; May however seems somewhat distant. She announces that she is leaving to go to [[Johto]] alone to compete in the Pokémon Contests there, meaning Max will also have to leave and return to his parents in [[Petalburg City]]. She explains that she has had a great time traveling through [[Hoenn]] and [[Kanto]] with Brock and Ash but she has been thinking about going off to Johto for a while now and the fact that they are finished in Kanto is perfect for her and Max to leave.

Max is very upset, getting up and walking off ignoring when May calls over to him. Ash gets up and pursues Max and Pikachu follows too. Max sits on a swing over the other side of the park, Ash follows close behind and starts to offer comforting words to Max. He knows Max is upset that he will be missing his friends and Max explains that when he was watching Ash and May battle in the Contest he wanted so much to be doing it too; all he wants to do is grow up quick so he can be a Trainer too and get to do all the things they do. Ash says once Max becomes a {{pkmn|Trainer}} he promises to challenge him to a battle which brightens Max up and he jumps to his feet to acknowledge Ash. Suddenly from the distance a large horn goes off, the boat which Max and May are supposed to be leaving on is due to depart in five minutes! Our heroes run off down the lane to the harbor and luckily make it in time. Max, May, and her Pokémon all wave goodbye to Ash, Brock and their Pokémon as they sail off into the sunset.

The next morning Ash and Brock come to their crossroads, they look at the sign together, [[Pewter City]] off in one direction, leading to [[Pewter Gym|Brock's home]] at the [[Gym]], and [[Pallet Town]] off in the opposite direction where {{Delia|Ash's family}} and {{an|Professor Oak}} reside. Except there's one last thing on Ash's mind, his stomach. Ash is hungry already, but as soon as he gets over this he runs off home, while Brock goes his own way. Overhead {{TRT}}'s [[Team Rocket's mechas#Meowth Hot Air Balloon|balloon]] is floating by, [[James]] and {{MTR}} have a very unhappy look on their face, they are starting to doubt themselves but [[Jessie]] puts them back on the right track by offering a few words of wisdom. Suddenly out of nowhere sparks of electricity fly into the sky, Team Rocket get out their goggles and spot the Pokémon thinking it is Pikachu but on a closer inspection recognize it as an {{p|Electivire}}. Electivire uses {{m|ThunderShock}} to knock an apple down from the tree and begins to eat it, Team Rocket poke up from behind a bush and Meowth fires a net from the launcher and grabs Electivire. It struggles under the net as Team Rocket start to pull it in. It fires out wild {{t|Electric}} attacks which Ash sees from the other side of the trees and runs to try help.

Team Rocket finish pulling in Electivire but then a voice comes from atop the ridge and tells them to let go of the Pokémon they have got in the net and the person jumps down from atop the ridge and reveals himself, and it's {{Gary}}! Gary orders {{TP|Gary|Electivire}} to use Iron Tail, which it does and breaks free from the net. Team Rocket are furious and jump to try and grab Electivire but Gary orders a {{m|ThunderPunch}} which scores a direct hit and knocks Team Rocket away. Once Team Rocket are gone Ash tries to use his [[Pokédex]] to get some information on Electivire but there is no data available, Gary explains that Electivire is a newly discovered Pokémon from [[Sinnoh]], which Ash gets excited about this and challenges him to a battle, but Gary says no and just walks off.

Later on we see Ash arrive home. He calls for his mother at his house, but neither she nor [[Mimey]] are around. He runs over to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] but he cannot find {{Tracey}} or Oak anywhere. He thinks this is really strange and starts to wander around the rooms. When he gets to the sitting room, all of a sudden Tracey and Mimey jump up from behind a sofa and set off some party poppers welcoming Ash home, while Oak, Gary and Delia come from the door on the other side of the room. Ash presents his mother with the plaque with all the Battle Frontier symbols on and then after the pleasantries re-challenges Gary to the battle and he accepts.

Outside the lab Ash and Gary are lined up ready to battle, Tracey is refereeing while Delia and Oak watch from the sidelines. Gary sends out Electivire and Ash sends out Pikachu, Pikachu starts with a Thunderbolt while Electivire counters with another Thunderbolt. Pikachu tries a {{m|Quick Attack}} but Electivire uses its tail to jump into the air out of the way and uses Iron Tail, which Pikachu counters with its own Iron Tail attack. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt again but Electivire jumps out of the way yet again. Ash calls Pikachu to use {{m|Volt Tackle}} on Electivire but Electivire uses {{m|Protect}} and then finishes Pikachu off with a powerful ThunderPunch. Gary and Electivire are the winners.

Gary walks over to Ash and starts to talk to him, saying that he may have won the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} but he should not take it for granted. Gary then announces that he is going to go to Sinnoh to {{pkmn|training|train}} his Pokémon and learn more about Pokémon. Tracey and Oak support this decision and back Gary, offering him some words of advice. Gary then looks over to Ash, turns his back on him and wanders off into the distance. Ash sits there and starts to talk to himself about Sinnoh and the newly discovered Pokémon. Delia watches on and senses the change in his heart. Ash stands up and announces his move to go to Sinnoh. As night time comes Delia is upstairs with a sparkle in her eye. She is sewing together fabric while talking of Ash.

Morning comes and outside Ash has lined up all {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|the Pokémon he has traveled with in Hoenn and the Battle Frontier}}: {{AP|Sceptile}}, {{AP|Donphan}}, {{AP|Corphish}}, {{AP|Swellow}} and {{AP|Aipom}}. He says goodbye to Professor Oak, Tracey and to all his Pokémon, but before he goes Professor Oak hands over to him a newly updated Pokédex with all the Sinnoh information on it. Ash turns around and runs off down the lane, but we focus in on Aipom who looks very sad compared to the rest of Ash's Pokémon.

A boat sails down across the screen, on board Ash and Pikachu are looking out to the sea and towards Sinnoh. The wind is blowing strongly, knocking [[Ash's hat]] off and heading to a staircase but suddenly stops. Aipom is there! She grabbed Ash's hat and gives it back to Ash, who welcomes Aipom to the Sinnoh team. On the side of the boat Team Rocket are hanging on for their lives, determined to follow Ash and Pikachu anywhere so that they can steal it and give it to the boss. Then they get washed up by a wave as the boat sails off into the distance to Sinnoh where Ash's newest adventures await.

* When Gary battles Ash, Electivire uses Iron Tail. Electivire's tail was yellow for a second before its tail glowed.
* In one scene, where Ash is talking to Gary, a close up is shown of Gary being outside, when he was inside.

===Dub edits===
* Much of the original background music was removed and replaced.
* In the Latin American Dub, when Ash is on the ship en-route to Sinnoh, he refers to it as an island ('''{{tt|La isla Sinnoh|The Sinnoh Island}}''') instead of calling it a region. This may be due to the fact that, like Hoenn, it is visibly not connected to any other regions visited. He also calls it "Sinnoh Island" in the English Dub.

'''Eevee''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イーブイ''' ''Eievui'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into one of [[Eeveelution|seven different Pokémon]] through various methods:
*{{p|Vaporeon}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}}.
*{{p|Jolteon}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Thunderstone}}.
*{{p|Flareon}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Fire Stone}}.
*{{p|Espeon}} when leveled up with high [[friendship]] during the [[time|daytime]], including [[time|morning]] ([[Generation II]] onward, excludes areas with a [[Moss Rock|Moss]] or [[Ice Rock]]).
*{{p|Umbreon}} when leveled up with high [[friendship]] during the [[time|nighttime]] ([[Generation II]] onward, excludes areas with a [[Moss Rock|Moss]] or [[Ice Rock]]).
*{{p|Leafeon}} when leveled up near a [[Moss Rock]] ([[Generation IV]] onward).
*{{p|Glaceon}} when leveled up near an [[Ice Rock]] ([[Generation IV]] onward).

Eevee is the [[starter Pokémon]] for the main character of [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Conquest]]. It is also the starter Pokémon for the [[rival]] in {{game|Yellow}}, although [[Professor Oak]] originally intended to give it to the {{player}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Eevee is a mammalian creature with brown fur, a bushy tail that has a cream-colored tip, and a large furry collar that is also cream-colored. It has {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a quadruped body|four short, feline-like legs}} with three small toes on each foot. Eevee has brown eyes, long pointed ears, and pink paw pads. It has traits of {{wp|rabbit}}s, {{wp|Miacid}}s, {{wp|fox}}es, {{wp|dog}}s, and {{wp|cat}}s.

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

===Special abilities===
Most of Eevee's offensive moves are {{type|Normal}} attacks such as {{m|Tackle}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}, but it can also {{m|bite}} its opponents and use {{m|Shadow Ball}}. However, it is unique in that it is unable to learn most other elemental attacks that other Normal-types can utilize, at least not in its current state. Eevee can also learn supportive moves such as {{m|Helping Hand}} and {{m|Wish}}. Eevee is one of few Pokémon that can learn {{m|Trump Card}}. Eevee is said to have an irregularly shaped genetic structure, enabling it to evolve into multiple Pokémon.

===Behavior===
Eevee's behavior can be affected by its surroundings. Eventually, with enough alteration, the Eevee may evolve to better suit its surroundings. According to [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]], Eevee has a naive personality, meaning childlike, playful, and friendly. In the anime, Eevee don't appear to have any characteristic quirks, but are usually affectionate, loyal, and energetic Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[File:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]
Eevee are quite rare in the wild. They sometimes live near cities and towns. It is possible for Eevee to live almost anywhere, and they may evolve to suit their surroundings. It was first documented in [[Kanto]], but has been seen in [[Johto]] and [[Sinnoh]].

===Diet===

====Other====
Eevee first appeared in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]''. A little boy named Mikey was hiding the Evolution Pokémon from his three older [[Eevee brothers|brothers]] because they wanted him to evolve it.

An Eevee appeared in ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]''.

Two Eevee appeared in ''[[DP174|Last Call, First Round!]]'', under the ownership of [[Ursula]]. Both of them evolved during her performance, into a Vaporeon and a Flareon.

==In the manga==
[[File:Mikey Eevee EToP.png|thumb|right|200px|Mikey's Eevee in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
Like in the {{pkmn|anime}}, [[Mikey]] owns an Eevee in the [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga. Mikey and his Eevee appear in the chapter ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That is the Question!]]''.

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
{{main|Coconut's Eevee}}
{{main|Lu}}
An Eevee is owned by [[Coconut]] in [[Magical Pokémon Journey]]. This Eevee is a smart Pokémon who is very loyal to Coconut.

Later in the series, another Eevee named [[Lu]] appears. Coconut's Eevee falls in love with Lu, who confesses her own love to Eevee before moving away.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Vee}}
An Eevee is seen as a Pokémon experimented on by [[Team Rocket]], in their tests to attempt merging {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} into [[Zapmolcuno|a single Pokémon]]. The experiments gave Eevee the characteristic of being able to mutate into three of its evolved forms, namely {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}}, and {{p|Flareon}} and revert, though it still requires the energies of an [[Evolutionary Stone]]. {{adv|Red}} eventually captures this Eevee as a prerequisite for challenging [[Erika]]. When it evolved into Espeon, however, it lost its mutation ability and became unable to revert to its base form.

Another Eevee was seen under the ownership of [[Karen]], during her childhood as one of the children captured by the [[Masked Man]]. It is presumed that this Eevee eventually evolves into her {{p|Umbreon}}, which she used to fight {{adv|Green}}.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Eevee was originally going to be called "Eon", the suffix of all the evolutions of Eevee. This in turn is a shortening of "evolution".
* The fanmade term to describe the evolutions of Eevee, [[Eeveelution]]s, was made official after its use in the strategy guide for [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], followed by {{TCG|Eeveelution|a TCG Theme Deck}}.
* In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, all of Eevee's evolutions up to the third generation can be captured; however, Eevee cannot even be found at all. This was changed in [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]].
* Eevee's name is a {{wp|palindrome}}; it shares this distinction with {{p|Girafarig}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Alomomola}}.
* Eevee and {{p|Tyrogue}} are the only Pokémon that can [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|evolve into more than two Pokémon]], if {{p|Wormadam}}'s alternate forms are not counted as separate Pokémon.
** The Eevee evolutionary family also has the most evolutionary relatives out of any other Pokémon.
* Eevee is one of only three Pokémon with two non-Hidden Abilities that evolves into a Pokémon with only one non-Hidden Ability. The other two are {{p|Trapinch}} and {{p|Sneasel}}.
* Despite the fact that {{an|May}}, {{Gary}} and [[Sakura]] each owned an Eevee that went on to evolve, Eevee was never seen evolving on screen in the anime until ''[[DP174|Last Call — First Round!]]'' when [[Ursula]] evolved her two Eevee into {{p|Flareon}} and {{p|Vaporeon}} during a Contest appeal, over thirteen years into the series.
* During [[Generation I]], Eevee was the only Pokémon that could evolve into more than one species. With the release of other branched evolutions in [[Generation II]], its distinction is the number of Pokémon which it can evolve into.
* Eevee is one of only two Pokémon to change its type completely upon evolution. The other is {{p|Azurill}}.
* Eevee and {{p|Feebas}} are the only Pokémon that can evolve into a single stage through multiple methods in the [[version|main series]]. Feebas can evolve into {{p|Milotic}} when leveled up with maximum [[Beauty Contest|Beauty]] or when traded while holding the [[Prism Scale]]; Eevee can evolve into {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} when leveled up with maximum [[friendship]] during the day or night, respectively, or via [[Sun Shard]] or [[Moon Shard]], respectively.
** However, some Pokémon evolve through abnormal means in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] series, including four of Eevee's evolutions.
* It is impossible for Eevee to evolve into Leafeon and Glaceon in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} since neither Johto nor Kanto has an [[Ice Rock]] or a [[Moss Rock]].

==={{game|Yellow}}-related trivia===
* Eevee is the one of the two [[starter Pokémon]] of a main series game not to be {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, or {{t|Water}} type. The other is {{p|Pikachu}}.
* Eevee is the only [[starter Pokémon]] of a main series game to not be part of a three-stage evolutionary family.
* Eevee is the only starter Pokémon of a main series game to have a branched evolution.
* Eevee is the only starter Pokémon in a main series game that can not be picked by the player.

===Origin===
Eevee shares traits with {{wp|fox}}es, more specifically the {{wp|Fennec fox}}, {{wp|dog}}s and {{wp|cat}}s. It is possibly based on the folklore of {{wp|Tanuki}}, who is said to be able to transform and is the alternative name for the {{wp|Japanese raccoon dog}}. It may also be based on {{wp|Miacoidea}}, an extinct {{wp|Paraphyly|paraphyletic}} {{wp|Superfamily (zoology)|superfamily}} that has been traditionally divided into two families of carnivores.

It may also be based on the concept of dog breeding and the multitude of variations that arose from it. It may also be based on the fox's ability to adapt to extreme environments, like the {{wp|Fennec Fox|desert fox}} and the {{wp|arctic fox}}.

====Name origin====
Eevee is a corruption of Eievui.

Eievui is the pronunciation of ''E-V'', the first two letters in the word [[evolution]].

==In other languages==
{{Other languages|type=normal|type2=normal
|ja=イーブイ ''Eievui''|jameaning=From the first two letters of ''evolution''
|fr=Evoli|frmeaning=From ''{{tt|évolution|evolution}}'' and ''-li'', the suffix for all French [[Eeveelution]]s

'''Volt Tackle''' (Japanese: '''ボルテッカー''' ''Volteccer'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Electric}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It is the [[signature move]] of the {{p|Pichu}} [[Evolution|evolutionary]] line.

==Effect==
Volt Tackle inflicts damage, and the user receives [[recoil]] damage equal to ⅓ of the damage done to the target. This move has a 10% chance of {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} the target.

==Description==

==Learnset==
===By {{pkmn|breeding}}===
While Volt Tackle can be performed in any of the [[Generation III]] games, it can only be obtained via {{game|Emerald}} or later. There is only one method of obtaining Volt Tackle, which involves breeding a female {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Raichu}} holding a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Light Ball}} with any Pokémon in the same [[Egg group]] (or breed a Pikachu or Raichu of any gender holding a Light Ball with a {{p|Ditto}}). If the Pikachu or Raichu and its mating partner are put into the daycare and they meet the conditions to produce an Egg, the hatched {{p|Pichu}} will have Volt Tackle. Since this will not work in any game prior to Emerald, trading is the only legitimate way of obtaining Volt Tackle in an older game (like {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}).

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], {{p|Pichu}} can learn Volt Tackle at level 50 if it has at least 333 [[IQ]] points. If this requirement is not met until after reaching level 50, Volt Tackle can be relearned at the {{DL|Pokémon Square|Gulpin Link Shop}}.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]], Pichu has a chance of learning Volt Tackle as an [[Egg move]] by obtaining Pichu Egg from a mission.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, {{sbw|Volt Tackle}} is {{OBP|Pikachu|Super Smash Bros.}}'s [[Final Smash]]. When used, Pikachu will be enveloped by a blue ball of electricity. The ball does major damage and can even pass through platforms, though it is very hard to control.

===Trophy information===
''"Pikachu, transformed into a ball of light that can slam into foes. It can also fly to chase down those who try to jump out of range. Sparks get stronger when you press the attack button. However, its increased inertia makes midair movement tough. If you get carried away flying, the effect will end, and you'll destroy yourself. Be careful it doesn't happen to you."''

==Trivia==
* Volt Tackle's Japanese name, ''Volteccer'', comes from an attack that [[List of references to Pulseman|Pulseman]], the protagonist of {{wp|Pulseman|a Game Freak game of the same name}}, could use. Both attacks are a reference to {{wp|Tekkaman}}, whose signature attack was also called Voltekka.
* Volt Tackle is the only move that causes [[recoil]] to have ever been a [[special move]], due to it being an {{type|Electric}} move introduced in [[Generation III]] (had {{m|Flare Blitz}}, {{m|Wood Hammer}}, and {{m|Wild Charge}} existed in Generation III, they would have been special as well).
*Prior to Generation V, Volt Tackle was the only non-TM, non-Move Tutor move, not counting Struggle, that cannot be learned via leveling up by any Pokémon. It now shares this status with {{m|V-create}}.
*In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], Volt Tackle is {{p|Pikachu}}'s Final Smash. Despite it taking damage from the move in the main series games, Pikachu takes no damage from the move when used in ''Brawl''.

'''Blizzard''' (Japanese: '''ふぶき''' ''Snowstorm'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Ice}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It has been [[TM14]] in every generation so far.

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Blizzard does damage and has a 10% chance of {{status|freeze|freezing}} the target. It has an accuracy of 90% in Generation I.

In the Japanese versions of the [[Generation I]] [[main series]] games, Blizzard had a 30% chance of freezing. The chance was lowered to 10% for {{game|Yellow}}'s Colosseum 2, the [[Pokémon Stadium]] games, and all international Generation I games. <ref>http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/kokke.pixie/zukan/waza.htm</ref><ref>[http://www.math.miami.edu/~jam/azure/compendium/myths.htm References to Blizzard's former freeze rate in the English Pokémon ROMs and Pokémon Yellow instruction manual] </ref>

===Generation II===
Blizzard has an accuracy of 70% and has a 10% chance of freezing the target.

===Generation III===
Blizzard will hit both opponents in a [[Double Battle|Double Battle]].

===Generation IV===
Blizzard cannot miss if used while it is [[weather conditions#Hailstorm|hailing]]. In Diamond and Pearl, it also has a 25% chance of bypassing {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Detect}}, but not in [[Pokémon Platinum Version|Platinum]] onward.

===Generation V===
In [[Triple Battle]]s, Blizzard will only hit opposing adjacent Pokémon.

'''Volt Tackle''' (Japanese: '''ボルテッカー''' ''Volteccer'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Electric}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It is the [[signature move]] of the {{p|Pichu}} [[Evolution|evolutionary]] line.

==Effect==
Volt Tackle inflicts damage, and the user receives [[recoil]] damage equal to ⅓ of the damage done to the target. This move has a 10% chance of {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} the target.

==Learnset==
===By {{pkmn|breeding}}===
While Volt Tackle can be performed in any of the [[Generation III]] games, it can only be obtained via {{game|Emerald}} or later. There is only one method of obtaining Volt Tackle, which involves breeding a female {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Raichu}} holding a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Light Ball}} with any Pokémon in the same [[Egg group]] (or breed a Pikachu or Raichu of any gender holding a Light Ball with a {{p|Ditto}}). If the Pikachu or Raichu and its mating partner are put into the daycare and they meet the conditions to produce an Egg, the hatched {{p|Pichu}} will have Volt Tackle. Since this will not work in any game prior to Emerald, trading is the only legitimate way of obtaining Volt Tackle in an older game (like {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}).

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], {{p|Pichu}} can learn Volt Tackle at level 50 if it has at least 333 [[IQ]] points. If this requirement is not met until after reaching level 50, Volt Tackle can be relearned at the {{DL|Pokémon Square|Gulpin Link Shop}}.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]], Pichu has a chance of learning Volt Tackle as an [[Egg move]] by obtaining Pichu Egg from a mission.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, {{sbw|Volt Tackle}} is {{OBP|Pikachu|Super Smash Bros.}}'s [[Final Smash]]. When used, Pikachu will be enveloped by a blue ball of electricity. The ball does major damage and can even pass through platforms, though it is very hard to control.

===Trophy information===
''"Pikachu, transformed into a ball of light that can slam into foes. It can also fly to chase down those who try to jump out of range. Sparks get stronger when you press the attack button. However, its increased inertia makes midair movement tough. If you get carried away flying, the effect will end, and you'll destroy yourself. Be careful it doesn't happen to you."''

* Volt Tackle's Japanese name, ''Volteccer'', comes from an attack that [[List of references to Pulseman|Pulseman]], the protagonist of {{wp|Pulseman|a Game Freak game of the same name}}, could use. Both attacks are a reference to {{wp|Tekkaman}}, whose signature attack was also called Voltekka.
* Volt Tackle is the only move that causes [[recoil]] to have ever been a [[special move]], due to it being an {{type|Electric}} move introduced in [[Generation III]] (had {{m|Flare Blitz}}, {{m|Wood Hammer}}, and {{m|Wild Charge}} existed in Generation III, they would have been special as well).
*Prior to Generation V, Volt Tackle was the only non-TM, non-Move Tutor move, not counting Struggle, that cannot be learned via leveling up by any Pokémon. It now shares this status with {{m|V-create}}.
*In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], Volt Tackle is {{p|Pikachu}}'s Final Smash. Despite it taking damage from the move in the main series games, Pikachu takes no damage from the move when used in ''Brawl''.

* Jigglypuff uses Pound as its B attack in [[Super Smash Bros.]] From [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] onwards, Pound became its side B attack. It is mainly used as an alternate recovery move, since its up B attack, {{m|Sing}}, does not help Jigglypuff recover.

==Other appearances==
* Jigglypuff uses Pound as its B attack in [[Super Smash Bros.]] From [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] onwards, Pound became its side B attack. It is mainly used as an alternate recovery move, since its up B attack, {{m|Sing}}, does not help Jigglypuff recover.

'''Blizzard''' (Japanese: '''ふぶき''' ''Snowstorm'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Ice}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It has been [[TM14]] in every generation so far.

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Blizzard does damage and has a 10% chance of {{status|freeze|freezing}} the target. It has an accuracy of 90% in Generation I.

In the Japanese versions of the [[Generation I]] [[main series]] games, Blizzard had a 30% chance of freezing. The chance was lowered to 10% for {{game|Yellow}}'s Colosseum 2, the [[Pokémon Stadium]] games, and all international Generation I games. <ref>http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/kokke.pixie/zukan/waza.htm</ref><ref>[http://www.math.miami.edu/~jam/azure/compendium/myths.htm References to Blizzard's former freeze rate in the English Pokémon ROMs and Pokémon Yellow instruction manual] </ref>

===Generation II===
Blizzard has an accuracy of 70% and has a 10% chance of freezing the target.

===Generation III===
Blizzard will hit both opponents in a [[Double Battle|Double Battle]].

===Generation IV===
Blizzard cannot miss if used while it is [[weather conditions#Hailstorm|hailing]]. In Diamond and Pearl, it also has a 25% chance of bypassing {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Detect}}, but not in [[Pokémon Platinum Version|Platinum]] onward.

===Generation V===
In [[Triple Battle]]s, Blizzard will only hit opposing adjacent Pokémon.

'''Bind''' (Japanese: '''しめつける''' ''Bind'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Bind does damage for 2-5 turns. There is a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 2 turns, a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 3 turns, a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 4 turns, and a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 5 turns. Though technically only the first attack can [[critical hit]], every attack during the duration will do the same amount of damage. During this turn duration, the target will be unable to attack, and if the user of Bind attacks before the target when used, the target will be unable to attack during that round as well.

Damage done by Bind's continuing duration is done after recurrent damage. If the user switches out before the turn duration ends, the target will be unable to attack during that turn, since it did not get to select a move. If the target switches out before the turn duration ends, Bind will automatically be used against the incoming Pokémon, deducting an additional [[PP]] from the move. If at such a time Bind has 0 PP, Bind will still be used against the incoming Pokémon. After that use, the current PP of Bind will roll over to 63, and full PP ups will be applied to it.

In [[Pokémon Stadium]], if the target Pokémon switches out before the duration ends Bind is ended and the user's turn is skipped.

Even if Bind misses, it will negate the recharge turn normally required for {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Additionally, if the user of Bind attacks before the user of Hyper Beam during a recharge turn and the use of Bind misses, the user of Hyper Beam will automatically use Hyper Beam during that turn. If at such a time Hyper Beam has 0 PP, Hyper Beam will still be used, and afterwards its current PP will roll over to 63, and full PP ups will be applied to it.

The target will get to select a move during each turn of Bind's duration, and will attack the player's incoming Pokémon with the selected move if the player decides to switch before the duration is over.

Although Bind cannot affect {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon, it can still make them unable to move.

In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, the player gets to select a move during each turn of Bind's duration. If the target switches out before the duration ends, the incoming Pokémon will not automatically be attacked. Bind will negate the recharge turn of Hyper Beam only if successful.

===Generation II===
The target is now able to attack during Bind's duration, and can act normally. Instead, it inflicts 1/16 of the target's maximum HP as damage for two to five turns upon use, in addition to the damage dealt when it is used. It also traps the target, preventing switching and [[escape]]. If a trapped Pokémon uses {{m|Rapid Spin}}, it will be freed.

===Generation III===
The effects of Bind are the same as in Generation II, but if a [[wild Pokémon]] uses Bind on the player's Pokémon, the player may [[escape]] if the affected Pokémon has {{a|Run Away}} or is holding a [[Smoke Ball]]. However, these do not allow the player to switch the Pokémon out.

===Generation IV===
In Generation IV, if the user of Bind is holding a [[In-battle effect item#Grip Claw|Grip Claw]], the duration will always be 5 turns. Also, if an affected Pokémon is holding a [[Shed Shell]], it can switch out.

===Generation V===
Bind's accuracy changed from 75% to 85%. Its effect will last either 4 or 5 turns.
If a [[Binding Band]] is held by the user, the damage done at the end of each turn will increase from 1/16 of the target's maximum HP to 1/8.

'''Volt Tackle''' (Japanese: '''ボルテッカー''' ''Volteccer'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Electric}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It is the [[signature move]] of the {{p|Pichu}} [[Evolution|evolutionary]] line.

==Effect==
Volt Tackle inflicts damage, and the user receives [[recoil]] damage equal to ⅓ of the damage done to the target. This move has a 10% chance of {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} the target.

==Learnset==
===By {{pkmn|breeding}}===
While Volt Tackle can be performed in any of the [[Generation III]] games, it can only be obtained via {{game|Emerald}} or later. There is only one method of obtaining Volt Tackle, which involves breeding a female {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Raichu}} holding a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Light Ball}} with any Pokémon in the same [[Egg group]] (or breed a Pikachu or Raichu of any gender holding a Light Ball with a {{p|Ditto}}). If the Pikachu or Raichu and its mating partner are put into the daycare and they meet the conditions to produce an Egg, the hatched {{p|Pichu}} will have Volt Tackle. Since this will not work in any game prior to Emerald, trading is the only legitimate way of obtaining Volt Tackle in an older game (like {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}).

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], {{p|Pichu}} can learn Volt Tackle at level 50 if it has at least 333 [[IQ]] points. If this requirement is not met until after reaching level 50, Volt Tackle can be relearned at the {{DL|Pokémon Square|Gulpin Link Shop}}.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]], Pichu has a chance of learning Volt Tackle as an [[Egg move]] by obtaining Pichu Egg from a mission.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, {{sbw|Volt Tackle}} is {{OBP|Pikachu|Super Smash Bros.}}'s [[Final Smash]]. When used, Pikachu will be enveloped by a blue ball of electricity. The ball does major damage and can even pass through platforms, though it is very hard to control.

===Trophy information===
''"Pikachu, transformed into a ball of light that can slam into foes. It can also fly to chase down those who try to jump out of range. Sparks get stronger when you press the attack button. However, its increased inertia makes midair movement tough. If you get carried away flying, the effect will end, and you'll destroy yourself. Be careful it doesn't happen to you."''

==Trivia==
* Volt Tackle's Japanese name, ''Volteccer'', comes from an attack that [[List of references to Pulseman|Pulseman]], the protagonist of {{wp|Pulseman|a Game Freak game of the same name}}, could use. Both attacks are a reference to {{wp|Tekkaman}}, whose signature attack was also called Voltekka.
* Volt Tackle is the only move that causes [[recoil]] to have ever been a [[special move]], due to it being an {{type|Electric}} move introduced in [[Generation III]] (had {{m|Flare Blitz}}, {{m|Wood Hammer}}, and {{m|Wild Charge}} existed in Generation III, they would have been special as well).
*Prior to Generation V, Volt Tackle was the only non-TM, non-Move Tutor move, not counting Struggle, that cannot be learned via leveling up by any Pokémon. It now shares this status with {{m|V-create}}.
*In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], Volt Tackle is {{p|Pikachu}}'s Final Smash. Despite it taking damage from the move in the main series games, Pikachu takes no damage from the move when used in ''Brawl''.

'''Bind''' (Japanese: '''しめつける''' ''Bind'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Bind does damage for 2-5 turns. There is a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 2 turns, a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 3 turns, a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 4 turns, and a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 5 turns. Though technically only the first attack can [[critical hit]], every attack during the duration will do the same amount of damage. During this turn duration, the target will be unable to attack, and if the user of Bind attacks before the target when used, the target will be unable to attack during that round as well.

Damage done by Bind's continuing duration is done after recurrent damage. If the user switches out before the turn duration ends, the target will be unable to attack during that turn, since it did not get to select a move. If the target switches out before the turn duration ends, Bind will automatically be used against the incoming Pokémon, deducting an additional [[PP]] from the move. If at such a time Bind has 0 PP, Bind will still be used against the incoming Pokémon. After that use, the current PP of Bind will roll over to 63, and full PP ups will be applied to it.

In [[Pokémon Stadium]], if the target Pokémon switches out before the duration ends Bind is ended and the user's turn is skipped.

Even if Bind misses, it will negate the recharge turn normally required for {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Additionally, if the user of Bind attacks before the user of Hyper Beam during a recharge turn and the use of Bind misses, the user of Hyper Beam will automatically use Hyper Beam during that turn. If at such a time Hyper Beam has 0 PP, Hyper Beam will still be used, and afterwards its current PP will roll over to 63, and full PP ups will be applied to it.

The target will get to select a move during each turn of Bind's duration, and will attack the player's incoming Pokémon with the selected move if the player decides to switch before the duration is over.

Although Bind cannot affect {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon, it can still make them unable to move.

In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, the player gets to select a move during each turn of Bind's duration. If the target switches out before the duration ends, the incoming Pokémon will not automatically be attacked. Bind will negate the recharge turn of Hyper Beam only if successful.

===Generation II===
The target is now able to attack during Bind's duration, and can act normally. Instead, it inflicts 1/16 of the target's maximum HP as damage for two to five turns upon use, in addition to the damage dealt when it is used. It also traps the target, preventing switching and [[escape]]. If a trapped Pokémon uses {{m|Rapid Spin}}, it will be freed.

===Generation III===
The effects of Bind are the same as in Generation II, but if a [[wild Pokémon]] uses Bind on the player's Pokémon, the player may [[escape]] if the affected Pokémon has {{a|Run Away}} or is holding a [[Smoke Ball]]. However, these do not allow the player to switch the Pokémon out.

===Generation IV===
In Generation IV, if the user of Bind is holding a [[In-battle effect item#Grip Claw|Grip Claw]], the duration will always be 5 turns. Also, if an affected Pokémon is holding a [[Shed Shell]], it can switch out.

===Generation V===
Bind's accuracy changed from 75% to 85%. Its effect will last either 4 or 5 turns.
If a [[Binding Band]] is held by the user, the damage done at the end of each turn will increase from 1/16 of the target's maximum HP to 1/8.

'''Submission''' (Japanese: '''じごくぐるま''' ''Hell Wheel'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Fighting}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM17]] in Generation I.

==Effect==
Submission does damage, and the user receives [[recoil]] damage equal to 25% of the damage done to the target.

If the user of Submission attacks first and faints due to recoil damage, the target will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round. However, the user will still be subject to recurrent damage. Self-inflicted recoil damage from Submission from the previous turn can be countered if the target does not make a move on the following turn. If Submission breaks a {{m|Substitute}}, the user will take no recoil damage.

In Stadium, no recoil damage is taken if Submission knocks out a target.

==Description==

==Trivia==
* The name for this move is somewhat inaccurate. A professional wrestling {{wp|submission (combat sports)|submission}} is a move executed by wreching an opponent's limbs for an extended period of time, in the hopes the opponent will give up. The move's effect is more like a particularly strong grapple (the Japanese name suggests a Hell Wheel). A more accurate depiction of a submission hold is the execution of a {{m|Bind}} attack by [[Montgomery's Throh]] in ''[[BW073|Commanding the Clubsplosion Crown!]]''.
* Submission is the lowest base power of all [[recoil]] moves, as well as the highest number of PP.
* Submission's description in [[Pokémon Stadium|Stadium]] and [[Pokémon Stadium 2|Stadium 2]] states it is the strongest Fighting-type attack, despite there being one and three, respectively, moves stronger at the release time of each of these games.

* Use {{bp|wikicode}} and {{bp|link templates}} when adding content to a page.
* Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the {{bp|manual of style}}.
* You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the {{bp|userspace policy}}.
* Use {{bp|Talk page policy|talk pages}} to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
* If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our {{bp|FAQ}}. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The {{bp|staff}} won't bite.

Also, I'd like to notice you that talk is not place for that kind of stuff you made here. It should be on userpage... and please use preview button. You could make this with one edit instead of several. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 21:20, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
:Don't try to add your teams here anymore, it is against the {{bp|userspace policy}}. I suggest you to read that page and several other pages that are linked in the above welcome box.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:36, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

== The Preview Button ==
Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Changes button... Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Thanks! --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 02:34, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
:As stated above, please take note of the preview button: you have recently made three edits to [[Pokemon League (Unova)|this page]]. Using the preview button will prevent the clogging of the Recent Changes section and will save space. Thanks! ''[[User:Joltaex|–Jolt]][[User talk:Joltaex|aex]]'' 23:52, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

== Links ==

Please use link templates when linking to stuff such as Pokémon names, attacks, and the like. For example, <nowiki>{{m|Frenzy Plant}}</nowiki> instead of just <nowiki>[[Frenzy Plant]]</nowiki>. This is so you don't unintentionally link to a disambiguation page.

For a full crash course on link templates, look at the {{bp|list of link templates}}. [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 02:12, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

== Regarding your recent edits ==

Those edits you made to {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Blaziken}}, and {{p|Swampert}} are not notable. Please refrain from adding this sort of trivia. Thanks. If you are searching for things to edit, there are many other things that do need to be filled up, such as with Black 2 and White 2, and other Pokémon-related media. If you are wondering what else to do, feel free to ask me about it. [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 02:18, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
:Editing a page only to undo your edits won't help your case... I already suggested things for you to do. It's on my talk page. We keep conversations consistent by keeping them on the same page. Thanks~ [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 19:12, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

:Adding nonsense to pages then removing them just to up your edit count will not be tolerated.

:'''JOLTAEX''' is what a lot of people call me, so...yeah.
Mostly I help out around Bulbapedia by doing random things—sometimes I might upload missing pictures and place them in an article, sometimes I might (try to) add a shipping hint if it's not opinionated, and sometimes I do other stuff, like fix grammatical errors and such. It just depends on how I'm feeling that day, I guess.
I spend a lot of my time watching Pokemon—mainly the Advanced Generation series—and listening to music. Other than that, the usual: school, homework, etc. I'm in eighth grade, and I have ''a lot'' of homework, so I usually don't get that much time to edit.

Well, there's not really that much to know about me that I haven't already stated in my usertags, but here I go anyway.

First of all, I'm bipolar, so if I'm mad at you for some reason and you can't figure out why, then now you know. I can be really emotional at times, and very, very shy at other times. I don't like making mistakes, either--I like it when everyone thinks that I'm a {{tt|pro-editor|which, let's face it, I'm SO not...}}, and it's cool to have people look up to me. But, in reality, I probably bring Bulbapedia down more than help it out. Also, I don't really want this website to be finished, because if it is, then it would be *gasp* the end of Pokémon as we know it.

About Pokémon--I'm {{tt|obsessed|like, I think about it almost every minute of every day kind of obsessed}}. ''Really'' obsessed. I like each and every Pokémon out there, except for maybe Jynx, which, to put it nicely, isn't very pretty. Anyways, I can't really remember when I started watching Pokémon: I think it was sometime in the Kanto or Johto regions, but I'm not sure--to me, those regions were the worst. I mean, in the games, they're fine, but in the anime? Forget it. Sometimes I wonder how it's possible to like them (no offense). Personally, I like the Hoenn region the best. I like it for it's awesome variety of climates and new, cool Pokémon like Flygon and Swellow, and also because it introduced my now-favorite characters: {{tt|Ash|the cool, mature Ash}} and {{tt|May|she reminds me of myself, somehow...}}. Max was okay, too, and so was Brock. Although I was used to watching the old Pokémon with Misty and such, I liked the change--Misty was annoying and, to me, obviously didn't like Ash in ''that'' way (besides, what is she, sixteen?) although lots of people say so. In my opinion, bickering doesn't lead to a perfect relationship--friendship does. And that's just what Ash and May had together: all their similarities, how they helped each other grow, etc. Hence I found AdvanceShipping on Bulbapedia, and I have never gone back (and never will). I don't really mind other ships, but I don't like it when people wave theirs around like, "Hey! ___Shipping is so canon, yours sucks!" and I've seen quite a lot of people do that. To me, I don't like ContestShipping because, well, Drew was mean and annoying at first, and I guess I'm just not that good at forgiving jerks, especially when he acts so arrogant and flips his hair all the time. But anyway, there were some moments, but still...like I said before, friendship is better than bickering, which is also the reason I DON'T like PokeShipping and NegaiShipping. PearlShipping, well...I just think that she's supposed to be with Kenny. And Misty is supposed to be with Tracey. And...I think you get my point{{tt|....|and Iris is supposed to be with Cilan! Or Trip...}}

Anyway, I really, really like Pokémon. I would give almost anything in order for it to be real--then I would train every day and become a Pokémon Master (hopefully)! My favorite Pokémon are {{tt|Furret|it's so adorable and you can teach it anything: how can you not love it??}}, {{tt|Flygon|oh come on, this PKMN's just freaking badass & cool}}, {{tt|Eevee|It's cute--plus it evolves into Glaceon, so...}}, {{tt|Pikachu|obviously this fat rat is a boss}}, {{tt|Arcanine|I will eat you.}}, and finally, {{tt|Joltik|did you know it's the smallest Pokémon: only four inches? And it's fast--and it's ELECTRIC!!}}. But really, all Pokémon are cool, and any one of them can become a boss if you take the time to train them.

Also a few of my favorites...I didn't want to clog up my usertags with these, so here they are. I doubt any of you care. Actually, I doubt any one is actually reading this, so what's the point? Erm, anyways...my favorite singer is {{tt|Erin Bowman|she even has my first name! she brings this suckish name honor! xD}}, who is also the singer of some Pokemon songs, as well as pop songs. Katy Perry's cool, too, though. My favorite color usually varies between blue, {{tt|red|with a pinkish/magneta tinge..IDK}}, black, and white. I also kind of like teal (why you'd want to know these things, I have no clue). Also, my favorite region is Hoenn (which I believe I already stated earlier), and my favorite generation is, ooh, {{tt|can you guess?|the Advanced Generation / Gen. III}} And....yeah. That's pretty much it. Well, probably not--there's a lot more to say about me, but I seriously doubt that you care at all. But if you do care {{tt|or whatever|or you want to tell me that you actually read this so I don't feel ignored xD}} then you can talk to me [[User_talk:Joltaex|here]].

[[File:AdvanceShipping.png|thumb|220px|Ash reassures May]]'''AdvanceShipping''' (Japanese: '''サトハル''' ''SatoHaru'') is the belief that {{Ash}} and {{an|May}} belong in a romantic relationship. This [[Shipping|Ship]] is among the most popular of those based in the anime, along with {{s|Poké}}, {{s|Contest}}, and {{s|Pearl}}.

This Ship is considered by some to be similar to {{s|Apprentice}}, with Ash in the role of tutor and May in the role of student.

==Evidence==
There are many points in the anime that seem to support AdvanceShipping. Below is a list of such points from the multiple sagas in which Ash and May appear.

===Hoenn League saga===
* ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road]]''[[File:May Ash AdvShip.png|thumb|200px|Yes!]]
:After Ash destroys May's [[bicycle]] accidentally, she angrily goes to tell him off while he is resting in the [[Pokémon Center]]. As she quietly opens the door, she sees Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} resting contently together, and she forgives him without telling him. Later on, May guilts Ash into letting her travel with him. Once he says that she could come along, May strikes a triumphant pose by the camera and yells, "YES!" to show her enthusiasm to the audience. This, coupled with the previous scene where she secretly spies on him and forgives him for his kindness toward Pikachu, shows that May might be taking a liking toward him.

* ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]''
:During the middle of the episode, Ash is eager to ask a few other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s about the Petalburg Gym Leader. Hearing this, May desperately grabs Ash's hand and asks him if they could go eat instead, and if he could show her around the Pokémon Center so Ash wouldn't find out her dad is the Gym Leader; some say this is so Ash would not treat her any differently. Despite his earlier enthusiasm, Ash agrees and they eat. During their meal, Ash and May talk, and Ash becomes May's mentor for the very first time, teaching her how to [[Caught Pokémon|capture]] and [[Pokémon battle|battle]] with Pokémon.
: When Ash goes off to spy on [[Team Magma]], May refuses to be left alone and goes along with him.

* ''[[AG003|There's no Place like Hoenn]]''
:When {{TRT}} steals [[May's Torchic]], she falls to her knees in despair. Seeing this, Ash crouches down next to her and tells her not to worry, promising that he will get her Torchic back for her. Additionally, at the end of the episode, when [[Max]] voices his desire to travel with Ash and May, they both show a shocked expression on their faces, possibly implying that they wanted to travel together, alone.

*''[[AG011|A Bite to Remember]]''
: When a group of Mightyena shows hostility towards the group, May hides behinds Ash for protection, even though Brock could provide protection as easily. However, Ash was also the closer of the two, so whether it is because of reliance or self-preservation is debatable.

* ''[[AG017|Stairway to Devon]]''
:When Ash and May discover that a [[Team Aqua]] intruder is in the [[Devon Corporation|building]] and Max could be in potential danger, she clasps her hands and asks Ash for reassurance and support. Once Ash comforts her, she is relieved. This is the first of many scenes where May continually looks toward Ash for support and reassurance, further expanding on the mentor/student dynamic.

* ''[[AG020|Brave the Wave]]''
:On [[Dewford Town|Dewford Island]], May decides to strip into a bikini right on the beach. However, instead of just running down to the shore to take a swim, she purposely poses in her bikini in front of Ash and her brother and asks what they think. Ash appears to be embarrassed by the situation, but so is Max (who could arguably seem even more embarrassed), for understandable reasons.

*''[[AG033|Now That's Flower Power!]]''
:When Drew was criticizing May's ability as a Coordinator, Ash stands up, the camera moving to show his face only, and he quickly went in May’s defense, clearly upset.

* ''[[AG035|Win, Lose or Drew!]]''
:After witnessing May lose her first [[Pokémon Contest]], Ash takes the blame for her loss. He says, "It’s my fault. I wish I’d spent more time with May, teaching her." Later, May cries backstage as everyone tries unsuccessfully to cheer her up.

*''[[AG064|True Blue Swablu!]]''
:When May wants to stay and help {{p|Swablu}}'s injuries get better, Ash generously tells her, "You're going to take any time you need to help your buddy out," even though his first priority is making it to the [[Fortree Gym]]; however, some argue that Ash also cared about the Swablu. Also, when Max is saying, "Which reminds me of when she had a crush on this boy in school and she actually tried to--" she quickly cuts him off, saying, "I was such a child then!" This could suggest that she didn't want Ash to know that she had a previous crush.

* ''[[AG067|Go Go Ludicolo]]''
:When confronted by Max about whether she wants Ash to win over her Dad—[[Norman]] of the [[Petalburg Gym]]—or not, May gives flustered responses. While Max is quick to make up his mind and cheer for his father, May cheers for Ash. Max yells, "What, how can you want Ash to win over our Dad?" May blushes and says, "Well I want Dad to win...but I don't want Ash to lose!"

* ''[[AG069|Love, Petalburg Style!]]''
:During the ending of the episode, May once again seems torn about whom should she cheer for in the upcoming gym battle.

* ''[[AG070|Balance of Power]]''
:Expanding on the previous hints, When {{AP|Pikachu}} is hit by a {{M|Flamethrower}} from Norman's {{p|Vigoroth}}, May tries to help Ash by telling him to [[Recall|switch]]. Brock then says that it's not a good idea, causing May to hastily shut her mouth with her hands in terror. Moreover, at multiple points during the battle, May seems worried and terrified when Ash is losing and happy when Ash is winning. This behavior highly implies that May chose Ash over her own father, at least subconsciously.

* ''[[AG072|The Bicker The Better]]''
:Considered to be the first episode where the idea of AdvanceShipping was first introduced, Ash and May are confronted by [[Oscar and Andi]], a young couple who are obsessed with the idea of love and romance.
:When Oscar and Andi call Ash and May a "happy couple," the two of them quickly deny it and turn their backs to one another, crossing their arms. Ash says sarcastically, "That's a laugh!" and May adds, "Hardy har har!" Oscar and Andi do not stop there, and continue to call them a couple. Ash and May scream, "We're not a couple!" in unison, with the same body language, followed by, "And we're not happy either!" in the same tone in which Oscar and Andi state that they 'both answered together' further causing tensions between the two.
:As the episode pours on, Ash and May continue to argue and bicker back and forth, presumably to get their minds off the idea of being called a couple by Oscar and Andi. After a [[Double Battle]] against [[Jessie]] and [[James]] at the end, Ash and May bashfully forgive each other for their argument, and apologize as they stare at each other while the sunset closes behind them.

* ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria]]''
:When May is lost in the forbidden land of the {{t|Grass}} Pokémon, Ash once again steps in to save her despite the warnings. After his Tarzan-esque entrance to save May from the fierce and threatening Grass Pokémon that were about to attack her, he grabs her by the hand with an intense expression, and runs with her to clear a path to safety. Ash and May continue to hold hands as they are running away from the menacing Pokémon, a rare sight between them, despite being for safety reasons.

* ''[[AG074|Hokey Poké Balls]]''
:This episode further brings up the parallelism between Ash and May, by having their two {{p|Bulbasaur}} meet each other. Moreover, the two Bulbasaur show signs of liking one another, a ship that is called {{s|Vine}}. Throughout the episode, May makes several comments about how their Bulbasaur are such a great team, and how they are, "Two peas in a Poképod." Before Ash sends {{AP|Bulbasaur}} back to {{an|Professor Oak}}, it pats [[May's Bulbasaur]] on the head sweetly with its vine, saying goodbye.
:May's Bulbasaur is impressed as Ash's Bulbasaur is sent back. {{s|Vine}} is one of the parallels that is used to push Advanceshipping, as canon characters such as Professor Oak and Brock have said in the past that Pokémon represent the feelings of their Trainers, and that when two Pokémon fall in love, there is a good chance that their Trainers will as well. While the Bulbasaur haven't fallen in love with each other yet, it is the first step in their parallel romance. It can be noted that their respective Bulbasaur's seem to reflect the current relationship of their Trainers, with Ash's Bulbasaur as a guide and mentor to May's Bulbasaur. However, the claim has also been refuted at various points during the series, so the feelings of the Pokémon are ''not always'' definitive to the feelings of the Trainers.

* ''[[AG078|Cruisin'for a Losin]]''
:May is sulking on a bench outside the [[Contest Hall]] because she lost her match. Ash comes alone to comfort her, cheering her up while patting her Bulbasaur on the head and sitting next to her on the bench. This is followed by a sheepish smile and a "Thank you Ash," from May.
:Ash is known to be rash and short tempered, and is not one to apologize easily, yet, when he and May were arguing about contest/gym battles before, Ash never raised his voice at her. Afterwards, when confronting her about running from contest after losing to Savannah, his tone is both kind and compassionate; and says that he doesn’t blame her for yelling at him before. This is a side of Ash we rarely see.

* ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''
:When Ash is about to hop on top of {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} and go with [[Lance]] to save Pikachu from its bonding with the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Blue Orb}} and {{p|Groudon}}, Ash says "Thanks, guys," but is only looking at May. May approaches Ash and says, "Don't do anything crazy Ash," in a concerned tone.

* ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]''
:In another love-themed episode, Ash is confused about the concept of love. May teases him and says, "Spoken like a maaaaaan," in the [[dub]] while she says, "And he doesn't get it," in the original Japanese. As the episode continues, Ash says, "No sense in going out of your way just to make somebody like you," to which May responds, "And he still acts like a man," in the dub while in the raw, "And he reeeaaaally doesn't get it." This is the second episode in which May teases Ash about love.

* ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt]]''
:May holds onto [[Ash's hat]] while he is lost with {{AP|Snorunt}} in a {{m|blizzard}}, and continues to do so during the entire search, frantically hoping to find him again, which is seen as a romantic gesture. Once they meet up again, she says, "I believe this is yours!" and hands Ash back his hat.

* ''[[AG114|Date Expectations]]''
:In the middle of the episode, Ash and May are separated from the group. May does her expedition routine and thinks about the concept of being lost with Ash in the woods forever. This idea causes her to have little red blushes on her cheeks. During the last act of the episode, May misses her chance to catch the ferry to her final Contest. In despair, she starts to cry. Sensing her pain, Ash puts his hands firmly on her shoulders and and stares intensely into her eyes, giving her the courage to go on while he takes care of her little brother. Moved, May rejects Ash's offer of moving on without them, and tells him about the promise she made with her [[Caroline|mother]]. As she talks, she gradually perks up and suggests that they go to look for Max and Brock. Touched, Ash agrees.

* ''[[AG123|Rhapsody In Drew!]]''
:As soon as May finishes talking to Drew, Ash holds up an ice cream to her face and said he thought she may have wanted dessert. This shows the thoughtfulness Ash has for May.

===Battle Frontier saga===
* ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]''
:May decides that she wants to continue traveling with Ash after Hoenn ends, which compels her to travel from the [[Hoenn]] region on her own to meet up with Ash in [[Pallet Town]]. This was before she found out there were Contests in [[Kanto]], so she decided that she wanted to be by Ash's side even if it meant not continuing her {{pkmn|Coordinator}} dream for the time being. When May shows up at Ash's house, Delia recognizes her on sight, even though she has never seen her before. This could suggest that Ash has told her a lot about May. When May sees Max, she seems surprised, then angry at him for coming. This could suggest that she wanted to travel with Ash alone. Ash and May share a scene on the couch together, where Ash asks her if she wants to come along with him through Kanto. May of course agrees, while Delia is watching them converse, and blushes, thinking, ''Ash has such good friends''. This could ''possibly'' be due to how close she thinks the two are.
:During the battle with {{TRT}}, May can be seen glancing towards Ash's direction after her [[May's Venusaur|Bulbasaur]] used {{m|Petal Dance}}. Soon after, Ash used ''his'' {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, to use {{m|SolarBeam}}, and blast away Jessie and James's Pokémon. It could suggest that May wanted Ash to battle with her.

* ''[[AG144|A Hurdle for Squirtle]]''
:When May steps on the Contest Stage, Ash is the only one (of the three) that cheers, saying, "Let's go May! All right!"
:This is also reflected in all of May's other Contests, in which Ash always seems to be emotionally involved and always helping May when she is in a dilemma by shouting helpful advice to her, though being enthusiastic and supportive seems to be part of Ash's personality, as he has done that for pretty much everyone he has wanted to win a battle or contest.

* ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony!]]''
:When May hears sounds made by scary {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon, she frantically goes to Ash and tries to wake him up in his sleeping bag. She presses her hands desperately against his chest to wake him up, yet she didn't do the same to Brock, who could have come to her aid just as easily. This is another example of May choosing Ash over anyone else when she is in fear or doubt.
[[File:Ash May Sleep.png|thumb|right|May trying to wake up Ash]]

* ''[[AG159|Off the Unbeaten Path]]''
:May falls off a rope bridge and clutches for her life. Once again she cries out for Ash several times, despite the fact that Brock is standing with Ash as well. Ash calls out May's name as he pulls her to safety, but not once does May give any gratitude toward Brock for saving her, only Ash (this does not occur in the English dub). In the English dub Ash calls out only May's name but Max was there as well. This could be taken that May relies more on Ash than the others to help her, but is not necessarily a romantic hint.

* ''[[AG160|Harley Rides Again]]''
:James says to Ash that they were helping ''his'' girl (May) in the Contest.

* ''[[AG173|All That Glitters is Not Golden!]]''
:After setting up camp, May says that she'll go get them some water. Ash, instead of finding something else to do, or helping Max with the firewood, because that is arguably harder than getting water, offers to help May, saying, "I'll help with that." in a kind tone that he rarely uses.

*''[[AG174|New Plot-Odd Lot]]''
:While May worries about the contest, Ash volunteers right away that he “would be happy to help her train.” May looks at him gratefully and thanked him. Later, after being infuriated by Harley, May quickly says, “Ash! Want to train?” Ash quickly finishes his food and stands up, then replies, “Right behind you!” in a determined fashion. Later, after May barely makes it through the first round of the contest, Ash is seen staring at her with the brown in his eyes showing (which usually only happens when he gets very emotionally passionate about something), while saying, "You deserve it. You really turned it around, May."

* ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]''
:After Ash's battle with [[Brandon]] and Ash returning to normal, he says to May, Brock, and Max, "You guys are the best." May replies, "Ash, if you keep talking like that, I'm going to blush."

* ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is]]''
:Ash and May end the Terracotta Contest in a tie; there is only one ribbon, and they can't decide whom to give the ribbon to. May looks at Ash, Ash looks at May, and they nod at each other, and then Ash tells Sceptile to Leaf Blade the ribbon in half. This demonstrates that, occasionally, neither Ash nor May need to speak to know what the other is thinking because they share such a close bond, though some argue that this could also just be strong friendship.
:In ''[[AG115|Mean With Envy!]]'', [[Erica]] and [[Joshua (coordinator)|Joshua]] were seen in a fantasy holding a split ribbon while [[Vivian Meridian|Vivian]] was referring to a couple winning a Contest. Ash and May's victory and split ribbon parallel this.
:In the Japanese version, when Haruka announces that she wants to go to Johto, Masato runs off. When Satoshi goes to comfort him, Masato asks, "Why is {{tt|Onee-chan|Big Sister}} so happy? It's really fun when Satoshi and Onee-chan are together...." This could suggest that Masato wants Haruka and Satoshi to be together.

===Diamond and Pearl saga===
[[File:Ash May Split Ribbon.png|right|thumb|150px|Ash and May with the ribbon halves]]
* ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]''
:May joins up with Ash, Brock, and Dawn in [[Sinnoh]]. Later that day, in the evening, Ash and May both pull out their halves of the ribbon that they tied for, and hold the pieces together. May also says how the ribbon reminds her of Ash's encouragement, and how it has saved her numerous times in [[Johto]].

* ''[[DP079|Strategy with a Smile!]]''
:Before May leaves to return to Johto, she and the rest of the group share goodbyes. She and Ash speak last, each telling the other to do their best in their respective paths. It is only when May is speaking with Ash (despite the fact she was exchanging farewells with everyone) that she holds her heart. Further indication is that when both May and Ash say their goodbyes, each of their eyes glimmer. In the anime, when a character's eyes glimmer it represents a type of {{tt|passion|Not necessarily romantic passion, but possibly passionate determination}}.

===Black & White===
* ''[[BW01|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]''
[[File:Ash_Room.png|thumb]]
:In Ash's room, along with his Orange League trophy and other objects, is the wooden Teddiursa doll that Ash recieved from May as a present in the [[Sinnoh]] region. It can be noted that, aside from trophies and various other awards, the doll is the only gift from one of his traveling companions that is visible (meaning that other gifts, such as Misty's special lure, are not visible). This could possibly suggest that May's gift was important to him, seeing as it was the only gift that he put next to his trophies and awards.

===Movies===
* ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''
:On one of the nights when May folds a tab on the wishing star, she afterward looks toward Ash who is skipping rocks across a river. The camera then goes back to May, showing the very anxious look on her face. Because of this scene, many AdvanceShippers believe that May's wish involves Ash, although the nature of the wish is never confirmed.[[File:AS_May_Wish.png|thumb|left|May staring down at Ash and Max]]In this example, however, one must account for the fact that Max and Jirachi are skipping rocks with Ash, as well as the fact that nothing else is going on at the time. When she looks "anxious" after viewing the scene, it could be partially due to sadness, since she knows that her little brother and Jirachi have very few days left together and will never see each other again afterward. As she looks away from the scene, she glances back at her wishing star and views the final two leaflets, which remind her that the week is coming to an end.
:It could be noted that May made the wish before Jirachi hatched, so it would be impossible have made the wish about Max and how he would miss Jirachi. Arguably, there is the possibility of the wish being a {{DL|Grand Festival|Top Coordinator}}, yet having her stare at Ash, and have her smile fall brings doubt on the theory.
[[File:Advance Shipping 2.png|thumb|right|Ash and May in [[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]]]
* ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''
:Ash tries to pick a fight with [[Tory Lund]]. In order to stop him, May throws her body on top of Ash and pleas for him to stop. She places her hands on his shoulders and desperately tries to convince him to calm down. Ash is surprised by her action, and maintains a shocked expression as he quickly agrees, and calms down.

* ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''
:Ash once again loses his cool and is mad at {{OBP|Lucario|M08}}. May quickly rushes down into the lake where Ash is standing and clutches his arm, trying to prevent him from getting himself in trouble. May holds onto him frantically until the situation is resolved. Afterward, May follows Ash around "mothering" him, telling him to get himself dry before he catches a cold.

*''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''
:As Ash and May go swimming with {{mov|Manaphy|Manaphy|9}}, a school of {{p|Luvdisc}}, the Pokémon thought to symbolize love, follows and swims with them. This is accompanied by shots of Ash and May looking at each other and smiling, while still surrounded by the Luvdisc. It can be noted that, even though Dawn has seen Luvdisc with Ash as well, Ash and May were the only ones that swam with them, further encouraging the Ruby Pokédex description below.
[[File:Ash_May_Luvdisc.png|thumb|right|Ash and May swimming with Luvdisc (offscreen)]]
:It could be interesting to note that the Sapphire Pokédex has stated that "any couple" (Suggesting even friends) "meeting" Luvdisc's "is promised a loving relationship that never ends"; whilst the Ruby Pokédex has stated that Luvdiscs would "swim after loving couples it spotted in the ocean's waves." This could suggest that May and Ash have a deep connection with each other, romantic or not.

:When Manaphy goes missing, May begins sobbing, heartbroken. Ash gazes at her with a pained expression and glistening eyes.

:While [[Samiya]] is being flooded with water, Ash puts May, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and Manaphy in a capsule left behind by [[The Phantom]], allowing them to survive in the event that his plan to replace the crystal fails. Distressed, May calls out to Ash with tearful eyes, but Ash only asks her to remain safe in there, and leaves with the brown in his eyes seen; this usually happens only when Ash is very upset or very emotional. May continues to pray for Ash's safety and is nearly driven to tears by the thought that he may not return. Manaphy sends May's prayers to Ash using Heart Swap, and with these thoughts spurring him on, Ash recoveres from his near-drowned state and replaces the crystal, saving Samiya.

:After Samiya is raised, May leaves the capsule, initially thrilled that the temple has been saved. (In the Japanese language version of the movie, she acknowledges that Satoshi is the one who saved the Temple by saying "This is Satoshi's doing, isn't it?") Her happiness, however, is quickly replaced by sadness and the fear that Ash will not return. "It can't be..." she says. "No way..." Her joy returns as soon as Ash flies up out of the water, chases down Captain Phantom, and saves the abducted Manaphy. In the manga adaption of the movie, when May and Pikachu are unsure of whether or not Ash survived trying to save the Sea Temple, she clutches Pikachu and is tearing up, but still retains hope in Ash by saying, "Ash wouldn't leave us like this..."

:Additionally, at multiple points during the movie, Manaphy seems very happy around Ash, best exemplified by the fact that it seemed content and happy in Ash's arms, when it's seen to only to accept May's company, even using {{m|Heart Swap}} to switch between Ash and [[Jack Walker]] when the latter held it, immediately regaining its happiness after doing so. Many AdvanceShippers suggest that Manaphy has chosen Ash to be his 'father'.

:When Ranger Jack moves to return into the Temple, Ash calls and warns him that it is too dangerous. Although, he submits when Jack tells him he will be fine. However, when May runs back into the Temple to follow Manaphy, Ash instinctively runs after her, presumably because, of everyone, he doesn't want to put her in danger.

:It can also be noted that Jackie Walker recognized that Ash, not Max, was the closest to May and specifically asked him to separate May and Manaphy.

==Similarities==
*They have both seen the same legendary Pokémon at different times:
:{{p|Ho-Oh}} (Ash in [[EP001]] and May in [[AG178]])

'''Skorupi''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''スコルピ''' ''Scorpi'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Bug}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Drapion}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Skorupi resembles an over-sized, pale purple scorpion. Its claws and tail have been swapped, giving it two stingers and a claw tail. The miniature jaws, claws, and tail claws are white. Its arms are attached directly to its head, close to its teal eyes. A pointed marking joins the eyes. The head, arms, two tail segments, and all four legs are light blue, while the body, tail end, and other two tail segments are a darker shade of blue.

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

===Special abilities===
Skorupi have a deadly poison in their claws allowing them to use {{type|Poison}} [[move]]s. Its mouth also contains a powerful jaw enabling it to use {{m|Bite}} and {{m|Crunch}}. It can have the Ability {{a|Battle Armor}}, which protects it from {{DL|Damage modification|critical hit}}s, or the Ability {{a|Sniper}}, which amplifies the power of critical hits. It can also survive a year without food.

===Behavior===
It buries itself in sand and lies in wait for unsuspecting prey, and grips prey with its tail claws, injecting poison. It tenaciously hangs on until the poison takes.

===Habitat===
Skorupi lives in deserts and dry areas, though it can be found in marshy areas such as the [[Great Marsh]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Skorupi is an active hunter that uses its poison to subdue its prey.

==In the anime==
[[File:Aaron Skorupi.png|right|thumb|220px|Skorupi in the anime]]

===Minor appearances===
A Skorupi also appeared in ''[[DP114|Another One Gabites the Dust!]]''.

A Skorupi was also seen at the [[Shelter Town]]'s [[Pokémon Center]] in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]''.

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

A photo of a Skorupi appeared in ''[[BW054|The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Both of Skorupi's non-hidden Abilities revolve around critical hits. {{a|Battle Armor}} protects it from them, {{a|Sniper}} strengthens a move that becomes a critical hit to 3× the damage instead of 2×.
* Skorupi is the only Pokémon that loses its {{type|Bug}} upon evolution.
* Skorupi is the only Pokémon with the {{2t|Bug|Poison}} combination to have Poison as its primary type.
* Despite it being said that Skorupi's habitat is the desert, the player can't catch any Skorupi in a desert route or area. However, the player can recruit a Skorupi in desert areas in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series.
* As of [[Generation V]], Skorupi and {{p|Drapion|its evolution}}'s [[Egg Group]] ({{egg|Bug}} and {{egg|Water 3}}) are unique. It is also the only Bug-type Pokémon whose evolved form does not have the Bug attribute.

===Origin===
Skorupi is based on a {{wp|scorpion}}. It has some characteristics that resemble a {{wp|Thelyphonida|vinegarroon}}, a similar arachnid. Its {{egg|Water 3}} Egg Group designation may be a reference to the ancient group of arthropods known as {{wp|Eurypterid|sea scorpions}} that used to inhabit the oceans and may have been the ancestors of modern scorpions.
====Name origin====
Skorupi and Scorpi are a shortening of ''{{wp|scorpion}}''.

Stay Together

2012-09-08T18:16:42Z

Joltaex:

'''Stay Together''' is a song featured on the [[Pokémon X]] CD. It was used as an insert song in the [[dub|English dub]] of ''[[AG157|Time-Warp Heals All Wounds]]'', when {{an|May}}, {{MTR}} and {{TP|May|Squirtle|Wartortle}} return from the past and {{TP|May|Eevee|Glaceon}} hatches from its Egg. It was sung by {{wp|Nini Camps}}.

==Lyrics==
''<ab>This is all so familiar
You know we've been here before
Don't you remember this calm, calm feeling
The calm before the storm

If we just stay together
It'll be alright
If we just fight for what we have
It'll get us through, get us through this time

You said how tired you've been feeling
My strength is fading too
But don't give up on me just yet
And I won't give up on you

If we just stay together
It'll be alright
If we just fight for what we have
It'll get us through, get us through, get us through this time

Get us through this time
Stick together, be together you and I

Stay together
It'll be alright
If we just fight for what we have
It'll get us through, get us through

If we just stay together
It'll be alright
If we just fight for what we have
It'll get us through, get us through, get us through this time

Get us through this time

Get us through this time</ab>''

Joltaex: /* Alternate names */

[[Image:Pearlshipping.png|thumb|250px|right|Ash and Dawn holding hands]]
'''PearlShipping''' (Japanese: '''サトヒカ''' ''SatoHika'') is the belief that [[Ash Ketchum]] and {{an|Dawn}} belong in a romantic relationship. This [[shipping|Ship]] is among the more popular anime-based Shippings, along with {{s|Poké}}, {{s|Advance}}, and {{s|Contest}}. The name itself was coined from the belief that Dawn's {{ga|Dawn|game persona}} would be linked to the {{ga|Barry|Pearl}} name upon {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}'s release, as was the case for {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, before much was known about either the anime saga or Dawn's character.

==Anime evidence==
===Dawn's hints===
* ''[[DP003|When Pokemon Worlds Collide]]''
:Dawn displayed worried expressions when one of Team Rocket’s Machine Tentacles hit Ash, even though she had just met him. Later she suggests that she should travel with Ash and Brock, saying that she could spend more time with Pikachu. She may have used Pikachu as an excuse to get to know Ash better. Also, Dawn didn't apparently tell Ash about Pikachu burning her bike with an electric attack (she will later do in [[DP038]]).
* ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era!]]''
: Dawn feels Ash does not respect or acknowledge her, and both argue with one another throughout most of the episode. Hoping that in doing so Ash will come to recognize her abilities as a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, Dawn challenges [[Nando]] to a battle. In the end, after Nando manages to explain to them that their argument is baseless, Ash and Dawn exchange apologies, thereby strengthening their new friendship.
* ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary!]]''
: During a particularly bad hair day, Dawn becomes self-conscious and refuses to let Ash or Brock see her until after {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} is able to address the issue with {{m|BubbleBeam}}. Her problem remedied, Dawn next asks a hygiene-illiterate Ash if he would like his hair done too.
* ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]''
: Dawn comments on how awesome Ash looks when making his appeal in the {{ci|Jubilife}} Contest. Later, while running to the stage to perform her own exhibition, she meets Ash and the two exchange their first high-five (even if looks like Ash started to raise his hand first). Noticeably the scene where they clap their hands is slowed and has a full-white background; also, in the japanese version there's no background music and the sound of the hands meeting is very loud.
[[File:Dawn Cheer.png|thumb|Dawn in the cheerleading outfit she wore to cheer for Ash]]
* ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]''
: When Ash starts a new training with the Pokémon he used in the first battle against Roark, Dawn offers him to use her Piplup for the battle, since it's a Water-type Pokémon (however, Ash refuses, saying that he wants to use the same team). Later, just as {{p|Aerodactyl}} is about to severely injure Ash and Pikachu with its {{m|Hyper Beam}}, Piplup and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} used Bubblebeam and {{m|Ice Beam}}, respectively, to stop the attack. Dawn rushes over with her Pokémon and specifically asks Ash if he is okay.
* ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]''
: Dawn dons a cheerleading outfit while she and her Pokémon cheer for Ash. Ash is thus able to find find the confidence necessary to winning his first [[Badge|gym badge]] in Sinnoh. Neither [[Misty]], {{an|May}}, nor {{an|Iris}} ever went to such lengths in any of Ash's battles, instead choosing to more passively sit on the sidelines when cheering. Dawn reprises her role as Ash's cheerleader twice over series' run.
* ''[[DP027|Settling a Not-So-Old Score!]]''
: After Dawn has won her first Pokémon Contest, she exchanges the second high-five with Ash.
* ''[[DP029|The Champ Twins!]]''
: When the gang meets the Champ Twins and they ask for a double battle, Dawn offers herself as Ash's partner for the tag battle, insisting even Ash is unsure because she's a bit unexperienced. After they lost the first battle they continuely argue, stopping when they see that also Piplup and Turtwig were quarreling for the battle. Dawn is the first of the two to apologize. When they win the rematch, they have a double high-five.
* ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]''
: Dawn tells Ash she doesn't mind of Ash burning her bike before the beginning of their journey, because it was a warning situation and they had Team Rocket following them.
* ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]''
: Dawn has just lost the HeartHome Contest, but Ash has bought her a ticket for the HeartHome tag tournament. After having some doubts, she acceptes Ash's inviting, getting temporarily over her sadness for the loss, probably because Ash insisted.
* ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''
: Dawn witnesses Ash leaving to train with his Pokémon and follows out of curiosity. Later, Dawn finds herself inspired by Ash's training, but, reflecting upon her recent Contest failure, suddenly begins crying. Ash, upon noticing Dawn's tears, asks whether she is okay and whether she has something in her eyes, the latter inquiry an (albeit faulty) assumption to which Dawn quickly agrees. Eager to avoid the possibility of having him worry over her, Dawn immediately follows this exchange with an invitation to snack on ice cream. A hungry and clueless Ash eagerly accepts.
* ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''
: Dawn attempts to convince [[Maylene]] to take up Gym Leading again, perhaps finding herself able to relate with the Gym Leader's confidence issues. Dawn admits to Maylene that she wonders if her Contests are holding Ash back, suggesting the possibility that she may worry for his success almost as much as she worries for her own.
* ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]''
: For the second time, Dawn cheers for Ash and his Pokémon in her cheerleading outfit. She even goes so far as to include some dancing, and also continues to cheer while it's raining.
* [[DP069|''Enter Galactic!'']]
: Ash asserts that his victory over [[Maylene]] owes to the training Dawn undertook with {{AP|Buizel}} when it was still in her possession. Dawn quickly blushes and responds somewhat sheepishly, "Well, let's just say that I was going to do anything I could to see an awesome Gym Battle between Ash and Maylene!"
* ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]''
: At the episode's start Dawn comments on how Ash does very well in training his Pokémon and notes that "Ash is incredible!"
* ''[[DP077|Staging a Heroes' Welcome!]] ''
: Dawn seems impressed while watching Ash's performance in the Wallace Cup. Later, she meets Ash in the hallway while going to the stage and, very similarly to the DP011's scene, she has a high-five with Ash.
* ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]''
: Dawn is proud of Ash because he and Buizel, by turning the opponent's {{m|Ice Beam}} against it, successfully pulled off the {{m|Aqua Jet}}-{{m|Ice Beam}} combination, "[[Ice Aqua Jet]]." Dawn had previously attempted to perform this combination with Buizel in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]''.
* ''[[DP081|Chim-Charred!]]''
: Ash tries to restrain his {{a|Blaze}} induced raging {{TP|Ash|Chimchar}} and his Pokémon bites him on his right shoulder. Dawn attempts to run to Ash's side, but is blocked by Brock. She protests to Brock that Ash needs help, but Brock tells Dawn to let Ash handle Chimchar.
* ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''
: In another scene, Dawn becomes so frightened by the numerous advancing Croagunk that she clutches Ash's arm and hides behind him.
[[File:High Five DP.png|thumb|right|180px|Ash and Dawn exchange their first high-five in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'']]
* ''[[DP084|Hungry for the Good Life!]]''
: Dawn tells {{an|Monica}} that Ash "won an amazing victory at the Pastoria Gym" and how she admires all of his success as a trainer.
* ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]''
: When Byron's Gym assistant exclaims that [[Byron]] has the upper hand during Ash and Byron's gym battle, Dawn angrily objects, "I am telling you you're wrong! Ash is going to win it for sure!" thereby revealing how confident she is in Ash's abilities.
* ''[[DP113|Hold The Phione!]]''
: When Ash asks Dawn which Pokémon she will use in the upcoming Pokémon Contest, Dawn responds with a wink, slyly asking him, "Well who do you ''think'' I would use?"
* ''[[DP123|Old Rivals, New Tricks!]]''
: Dawn states that she wants to enter {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} in the {{to|Sandalstraw}} Contest so that it might win for both her and Ash.
* ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''
: Ash, upset over his Pokémon team's injuries, runs off. Dawn, concerned, attempts to follow but is stopped by Brock. Nevertheless, Dawn later puts on a complex show for Ash, trying hard to improve Ash's mood and self-confidence. While Ash is initially oblivious to the Dawn's motivations, Nurse Joy soon informs him that Dawn went through so much trouble solely on behalf of him and his Pokémon.
* ''[[DP144|Gone With the Windworks!]]''
: When Ash, Dawn, Brock, [[Khoury]], and {{an|Lyra}} are trapped in a storage room at the [[Valley Windworks]], Lyra asks Dawn if Ash is her boyfriend. Dawn quickly denies this, expressing not only bewilderment but shock and defensiveness as well. Lyra nevertheless continues drilling Dawn on the subject, pointing out what she believes constitute Ash's strong points. Dawn appears to ponder some of Lyra's statements, perhaps realizing that Lyra has put him in a light she hadn't contemplated before.
* ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]''
: After Ash falls into a Trapinch's {{a|Arena Trap}}, Dawn becomes worried and scolds him for endangering himself. While the two argue, Lyra looks on and thinks to herself how nice it is that both Ash and Dawn care for one another as much as they do. Later, Dawn is once again startled by Lyra's talk of romance, although this time Lyra discusses the possibility of {{s|JohtoFesta|dating}} Khoury herself.
* ''[[DP154|Mastering Current Events!]]''
: During the night, while Ash is training Gliscor for the Air Battles, Dawn wakes up and reaches him, giving him some shredded tin foils she prepared to help them in the training. Apparently, Ash never asked her to do that, so she projected the thing herself. She also spends the whole night outside with Ash (they're seen to stop training at the sunrise).
* ''[[DP161|Yes in Dee Dee, it's Dawn!]]''
: When Ash gives Dawn a cup of hot milk after her fainting, she seems surprised, and gently smiles at him telling it's been a very nice gesture from him. Probably, because of Ash's usual denseness, Dawn didn't expect him to be that tender with her. She thanks Ash, but doesn't say anything to Brock also when Ash tells her it's been Brock's idea. Later in the episode, after the appeal round, she has a high-five with Ash.
* ''[[DP177|A Grand Fight for Winning!]]''
: After the conclusion of the Grand Festival, Zoey asks Dawn if she would like to accompany her back to Snowpoint City. Dawn declines, saying she has something to do. Zoey assumes that this "something" is cheering for Ash in his upcoming battles, an assumption that Dawn soon confirms is correct.
* ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]''
: Dawn again cheers for Ash and his Pokémon in her cheerleading costume for the third time.
* ''[[DP180|Four roads diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]''
: Kenny invites Dawn to a journey together, but she's unsure about her future; she tells Jasmine that the only thing she's sure of is that she wants to support Ash during the Sinnoh League, without knowing what to do after that. When Ash and Kenny are battling, Dawn is supporting Ash as she used to do in every battle, and she looks sad when Kenny wins. Later, even if Kenny insisted, Dawn decided to stay, at least temporarily, still with Ash at the Sinnoh League. However in the last episode she will tell Ash she wants to come to Kanto with him, indicating that maybe she had already made that decision after the Ash-Kenny's battle.
* ''[[DP186|Familiarity Breeds Strategy]]''
: When Ash and Paul find Dawn and Paul walking together, Dawn looks awkward for a moment, and then runs to Ash's side as if embarrassed to be caught by Ash talking with another boy.
* ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]''
: As Ash and Brock prepare leave the Sinnoh region, Dawn initially proclaims that she would like to accompany Ash to his hometown in Kanto now that her Contest run has concluded. This plan is quickly derailed, however, when an opportunity for Buneary in Sinnoh presents itself. Near the episode's conclusion, as Ash and Brock walk away, Dawn calls out for Ash one last time, prompting a startled Ash to turn around and see her right arm raised high above her head. The two high-five for the last time (this seems to be the first time that's Dawn "asking" for the high-five). The camera pans down to show Pikachu and Piplup high-five and then hug one another. Dawn begins to cry as the boat departs but, upon hearing Ash yell words of encouragement, regains composure, quickly running after the boat and waving alongside a tearful Piplup.
*''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]''
: When Ash enters [[Cynthia]]'s villa in [[Undella Town]], Dawn playfully hides behind him while giggling when he can't find her. She then surprises him with her appearance.
*''[[BW087|Expedition to Onix Island!]]''
: Dawn begins to mimic {{an|Iris}} in calling Ash a kid in order to tease him.

===Ash's hints===
* ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era!]]''
: Just like Dawn, after Nando told them that their arguing was baseless, Ash apologizes to Dawn, saying he isn't been very nice with her.
* ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]''
: After his performance Ash meets Dawn in the hallway, and wishes her good luck giving her their first high-five.
* ''[[DP018|O'er The Rampardos We Watched]]''
: Dawn dresses in a cheerleading outfit and cheers for Ash. Ash notices this and, with a grin on his face, remarks, "Gee, thanks Dawn."
* ''[[DP027|Settling a Not-So-Old Score!]]''
: Ash calms Dawn's nerves after she makes what she thought had been a bad appeal and consoles her through the use of Dawn's frequent catchphrase, "''No need to worry!''" (Japanese: "''Daijōbu!''"). While doing so, Ash expresses an encouraging look.
* ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]''
: After Paul tells Ash that he has not seen either Brock or Dawn, Ash wonders if his friends have gotten lost in the maze. He then imagines Dawn yelling, "No need to worry!" while being {{m|Bind|binded}} by an {{p|Onix}} and immediately yells out, "That's when I worry the most!" In the original Japanese episode, Hikari/Dawn yells painfully, "I'm all right! I'm all right!" while Satoshi wryly says "You're not all right at all!" He quickly tells Pikachu that they need to go find everyone.
* ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]''
: Ash enrolls Dawn in the {{ci|Hearthome}} [[Tag Battle Tournament]] in an effort to cheer her up following a recent Contest loss. Informed of this, Dawn objects on the basis that she won't do well, but Ash counters with his belief that she will do great and asks her to simply try her best. Dawn agrees, and Ash, with a big grin on his face, raises his hand to to give her a high-five.
[[File:Ash Displaying Sadness.png|thumb|right|Ash showing emotion over Dawn's second Contest loss]]
* ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]''
: Ash is deeply saddened when Dawn loses in the appeal round for the second time. After the loss, "[[Jessie|Jessilina]]" walks up to her and tells her to leave. Dawn refuses, telling "Jessilina" that she wants to stay, while the camera focuses on Dawn's slightly shaking fist. The camera then cuts to Ash's face. The brown in Ash's eyes can be seen; this usually happens only when Ash is very upset. Ash lowers his head and hides his eyes behind his hat.
* ''[[DP069|Enter Galactic!]]''
: Ash credits the training Buizel underwent with Dawn while still in her possession for his recent earning of a badge from [[Maylene]]. Dawn blushes and replies, "Thanks, but it was all worth it to see an amazing battle between you and Maylene, Ash." Ash smiles widely at her.
* ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''
: Ash asks Dawn to dance during the [[Pastoria Croagunk Festival|Croagunk Festival]].
* ''[[DP084|Hungry for the Good Life!]]''
: Ash and Dawn climb onto Team Rocket's [[Team Rocket's mechas|robot]], but Ash falls off. As he does so, Ash yells Dawn's name twice, once while falling and again after losing sight of her.
* ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''
: Dawn infuriates Ash by suggesting that Ash treat his Pokémon as {{Gary}} does. Some PearlShippers consider that to be jealousy over Dawn's supposed feelings for Gary.
* ''[[DP086|Arriving in Style!]]''
: Dawn becomes frustrated while designing outfits for the collection. Ash assures her that all of her designs are good and tells her to just do her best.
* ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''
: When Brock comments on how great [[Conway]] is with his {{p|Venonat}}, Ash begins to worry and yells, "'Kay Dawn, hang in there!" Later, Ash is happy to see Dawn win the prize for being closest to her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
* ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]''
: Dawn's {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine}}, hungry for more Poffins, charges her. Ash quickly responds, saving her from injury by placing his arm around her waist and pushing her to safety.
* ''[[DP114|Another One Gabites the Dust!]]''
: [[Ursula]] insults Dawn, angering her. Dawn prepares a retort but Ash beats her to the punch, yelling to Ursula that Dawn is a much better Coordinator and Trainer than she is.
* ''[[DP119|Trials and Adulations!]]''
: Ash discovers that Dawn has fallen into the river and thus becomes worried. He continues to express concern over her well-being until she is found. Meanwhile, {{an|Brock}} does not show nearly as much concern.
* ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]''
: Dawn puts on a show for Ash and his Pokémon, but Ash does not know why. Nurse Joy informs him that it Dawn is trying to cheer up not only his Pokémon but him as well. Ash quickly gives Dawn a weird look as if to say, "Is this true?" Dawn responds with a smile and a wink and starts the show. Ash and his Pokémon enjoy themselves.
* ''[[DP143|An Egg Scramble!]]''
: When Lyra invites Dawn to battle with her {{p|Chikorita}}, Ash exclaims, "Yeah, go Dawn!" and pushes her to the podium by the shoulder.
* ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]''
: Lyra tries to play matchmaker with Dawn and Khoury as the target couple. Later, Ash and friends are separated by a flock of {{p|Zubat}} while exploring a cave. Dawn is shown alone and scared with her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, but, soon after, Ash is shown running up to her and calling out her name.
* ''[[DP146|Dressed for Jess Success!]]''
: In this episode, Ash states Dawn is awesome and "number one."
* ''[[DP161|Yes in Dee Dee, It's Dawn!]]''
: In this episode, Ash is seen giving Dawn many kind gestures. First, after Dawn faints, Ash gives her some warm milk to make her feel better—though it is revealed Brock told Ash to go get it—and comments on how worried he is about her well-being. These kind words touch Dawn, prompting her to note that he is being really, almost uncharacteristically, nice to her. Later, during the Contest, Brock worries aloud that Dawn's performance might not go well; Ash objects and tells Brock that he thinks Dawn will be fine. Finally, after the first round of the Contest, Ash runs into the contestant area (Brock behind), telling Dawn that she was awesome and complimenting her Pokémon pair. Dawn is touched and she and Ash high-five. At the episode's end, [[Ursula]] comments on how close Ash and Dawn have become.
*''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]''
: Dawn tries on a princess outfit leaving Ash with a visibly stunned face (though some say it's because she looks so much like Princess Salvia). Ash praises Dawn, commenting that the dress looks good on her.
[[Image:DP191.png|thumb|250px|right|Ash and Dawn's final high-five]]
*''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]''
: Throughout the episode, Ash was constantly joking around with Dawn. Some PearlShippers think that this was his way of making the goodbye not as heartbreaking. At the beginning of the episode, Ash tells Dawn's mother that traveling with Dawn was a lot of fun and that he enjoyed her around. At the end of the episode, Ash becomes worried about Dawn when she was crying as he left so he yells her catchphrase and cheers her up.

===Other hints===
* Unlike {{an|Misty}}, {{an|May}}, and {{an|Iris}}, Dawn asks in a straightforward manner to come along with Ash in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'' rather than coming up with some reason to hide her intentions. In return, Ash accepts her request. While Ash felt some obligation to Misty and May due to Pikachu ruining their bikes, Iris invited herself.
* Since ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'', Ash and Dawn are often seen exchanging high-fives whenever one of them accomplishes something, which might possibly portray a special friendship.
* Ash and Dawn are the only main characters to trade Pokémon with each other: Ash's {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} for Dawn's {{AP|Buizel}}. This may symbolize they highly trust in themselves.
*[[Dawn's Buneary]] has {{s|Lagomorph|a crush}} on [[Ash's Pikachu]]. This could be a sign that Dawn may have a crush on Ash, since {{an|Professor Oak}} and [[Brock]] have said in the past that Pokémon represent the feelings of their masters and when two Pokémon fall in love, there is a good chance the Trainers will too. It is to be pointed out that Buneary developed this crush ''before'' Dawn caught it. The claim has also been refuted at various points during the series, so the feelings of the Pokémon are not always definitive to the feelings of the Trainers.
* Ash has watched all of Dawn's Contests. He did not do this with May because he would sometimes be training his Pokémon instead of watching her.
* Dawn is the source of some of the moves and strategies used in battle by Ash, which include [[Ash's Buizel|Ice Aqua Jet]] & [[Dawn's Piplup|Spin]]. Ash watching Dawn's Contest may (in part) be so he can learn new things to apply in battle, though some say this is because of advice given to him by others.
* One of the movie posters for ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' depicts Pikachu and Piplup sitting on Ash's and Dawn's heads, respectively. Some fans have pointed out that the distance portrayed between Dawn and Ash is very small. However, other fans point out how Ash's hair, which can usually be seen from the sides of his hat, is not present. This may mean the Trainers are not really wearing their hats.
[[File:High Touch Pearlshipping.gif‎|thumb|200px|Pearlshipping in the Japanese opening [[High Touch!]]]]
* [[High Touch!]]
: The opening is sung by Ash and Dawn. The lyrics show how close their friendship is to each other and their Pokémon. But, mainly to each other.
* ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]''
: While Dawn battled a revived {{p|Aerodactyl}}, Ash is fascinated with {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}'s new dodging tactic that he asks Dawn to help him practice for his rematch. He then has {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, and {{AP|Turtwig}} use them in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos We Watched]]'' in his rematch with [[Roark]], again in ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters]]'' in his match against Kenny, and a few other times since, the tactic becoming a regular (if not frequent) feature in Ash's strategy.
* ''[[DP113|Hold the Phione!]]''
: When Ash and Dawn were in the submarine, they saw a school of {{p|Luvdisc}}. Some PearlShippers consider this a hint because Luvdisc's [[Pokédex]] entry says if two people see a school of Luvdisc, they will be blessed with eternal love (however, there's been long-debated discrepancies about how much the anime and the game are relatable, and should not be taken at face value. Also, {{s|Advance|AdvanceShippers}} have a similar hint from the [[M09|ninth movie]]).

==Movie evidence==
===Dawn's hints===
* ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''
: When {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} first appears in front of Ash and company, Dawn runs over to Ash's side. Several other scenes feature Dawn reacting to Ash's predicaments: when Ash is about to fall off the tower, Dawn rushes over to save him. When Ash saves her from falling of the platform, Dawn looks at him with a thankful expression on her face and is holding his hand. And when Ash begins to cry, believing he lost Darkrai, Dawn looks at him with a worried expression and begins to cry as well.
* ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''
: When Ash tries to defeat Marcus, he has trouble beating {{p|Heatran}} and {{p|Bronzong}}. As soon as they both attack Pikachu, Dawn and her Piplup protect Ash and Pikachu, and help him fight. During this time, Brock is not with Dawn and Ash but with [[Sheena]] and [[Damos]].
*''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''
:When Ash became electrocuted, Dawn right away comes to his side to comfort him and make sure he is okay.

===Ash's hints===
* ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''
: When both Ash and Dawn are falling off the tower together, Ash holds Dawn tight so that she doesn't fall.
* ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''
: When Dawn gets sucked into the Reverse World, Ash yells ''"Dawn!"'' and runs after Dawn into the portal. Brock, for some reason, does not follow Ash's lead.

===Other movie hints===
Movie Posters
* Throughout most promotional posters of Diamond & Pearl movies, Brock seemed to be excluded, leaving only Ash and Dawn in them.

==Similarities==
* Both Dawn and Ash saw a [[legendary Pokémon]] at the beginning of their journeys (Ash saw {{an|Ho-Oh}} in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' and Dawn saw {{p|Mesprit}} in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'').
** They have both seen a [[Lake guardians|lake guardian]]: Dawn and Mesprit in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'', and Ash and {{p|Azelf}} in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' (eventually, Brock saw {{p|Uxie}} as well).
* Neither of Ash or Dawn's fathers have ever been acknowledged on-screen in the anime. They also are only children with no siblings.
* They both have childhood [[rival]]s: Ash's is [[Gary Oak]] and Dawn's is {{si|Kenny}}.
* The rivals of their {{ga|Red|game}} {{ga|Dawn|counterparts}} ({{Gary}} and {{an|Barry}}) have appeared in the anime instead of making a cameo, as {{ga|Silver}} and {{ga|Brendan}} have.
* He first participated in an official Contest at the same time as Dawn.
* They are the only main characters that have battled members of the [[Elite Four]].
* Just like Ash's Pikachu, [[Dawn's Piplup]] wasn't ready to obey her when they first met. Eventually, they became friends.
** Pikachu saved Ash from {{p|Spearow}} in the beginning of his journey while Piplup saved Dawn from {{p|Ariados}}.
** Both Dawn and Ash's first Pokémon have refused to evolve.
** Both of their {{Pkmn2|starter}}s were able to defeat their evolved forms: {{AP|Pikachu}} beat [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} and [[Sho]]'s {{p|Raichu}}, while {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} beat {{si|Kenny}}'s {{TP|Kenny|Prinplup}}.
** As of ''[[DP060|Journey To The Unown!]]'', [[Dawn's Piplup]] seems to have become an "out of the ball" Pokémon, as it rarely stays inside its [[Poké Ball]] anymore, and is often seen being carried around by Dawn just as Ash carries around Pikachu on his shoulder.
[[Image:Dominos Ad Nov08.png|thumb|220px|right|Scene from a {{DL|Pokémon food products|Pokémon Domino's Pizza Promotion|2008 Domino's Pizza commercial}}]]
* Both Ash and Dawn have owned Pokémon that refused to obey them at one point (Ash's {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Charizard}}, and {{AP|Primeape}}, and Dawn's {{AP|Buizel}} and {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}).
** Both also have a Pokémon they caught in its earliest form, which began to disobey them after evolving once, and then evolved again rather quickly. Eventually, both Pokémon started obeying their Trainers (however, it took [[Ash's Charizard]] longer to obey than [[Dawn's Mamoswine]]).
* They both released the second Pokémon they caught: Ash released {{AP|Pidgeot}} and Dawn released {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. However, Dawn recaptured Pachirisu and Ash said he would come back for Pidgeot (though he has yet to do so).
* In ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'', Pachirisu becomes ill from having too much electricity, which also happened to Ash's Pikachu between ''[[EP274|Hoenn Alone!]]'' and ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road!]]''.
* Just like [[Ash's Bulbasaur]], [[Dawn's Piplup]] stopped evolving in the middle of the evolution process.
* Both own a {{p|Quilava}}.
* Both released a fully evolved Pokémon from their current team for training during the the ''Diamond and Pearl'' saga.
** Both are part of a two-evolution family and their base forms relate to Generation II.
* In ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'', Dawn rented an affectionate {{p|Grimer}} whose behavior is similar to that of [[Ash's Muk]].
* In ''[[DP105|Get your Rotom Running]]'', while communicating with {{an|Professor Oak}}, [[Ash's Grotle|Grotle]] and [[Dawn's Mamoswine|Piloswine]] tackle Ash and Dawn down with affection.
**These two are newly evolved Stage 2 Pokémon.
* Both Ash and Dawn have a primate Pokémon in training. [[Ash's Primeape]] is training for the [[P1 Grand Prix|Pokémon Grand Prix]], while [[Dawn's Ambipom]] is in training for Pokémon Ping-Pong.
*Dawn and Ash both owned a {{p|Cyndaquil}} that knew {{m|Flame Wheel}}, {{m|SmokeScreen}}, and {{m|Swift}}. Both of their Cyndaquil evolved into {{p|Quilava}} and learned {{m|Eruption}} right after their evolutions.

==Synopsis==
The episode begins with the group releasing their Pokémon and settling down to a meal prepared by {{an|Brock}}. Upon their release, {{AP|Taillow}}, {{TP|May|Torchic}} and {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} are surprised to see {{Ash}}'s newly caught {{AP|Treecko}}. Nervous about the attention it is receiving, Treecko quickly climbs a tree and refuses to come down. The gang eventually return to their food, as do their Pokémon. From its perch, Treecko, spots a {{p|Seviper}} in the bushes.

Torchic gets over-excited and runs around with an apple on its head and a bunch of grapes in its mouth. Seviper trips Torchic up using its tail, causing Torchic to drop the grapes and the apple. Torchic runs off after the apple and stops in front of it. Torchic begins to dance happily, before noticing the huge snake Pokémon on the other side of the apple. Seviper eats the apple and Torchic gets angry. Seviper attacks Torchic and Treecko tries to save the tiny bird, but gets knocked back. Seviper hits Torchic around using its tail.

As the others rush up to help, Seviper uses its {{m|Haze}} attack so that they can't see what it's doing. Treecko sees that there is a gap at the top of the haze, so it jumps back up the tree again and sees Torchic being captive by Seviper's tail. It jumps down onto Seviper's head and Seviper drops Torchic. Treecko picks Torchic up and delivers it to {{an|May}}. Seviper gets furious and uses {{m|Poison Tail}} on Treecko, scoring a direct hit straight into a tree. As Seviper is about to hit Treecko again, Ash commands Taillow and {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Wing Attack}} and {{m|ThunderShock}} respectively, while Brock's Forretress uses {{m|Spikes}}.

After they get rid of Seviper, Ash and {{ashfr}} run to Treecko, who's so weak it can't even stand up. They rush it to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]], where Nurse Joy treats it.

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} have been watching, and seeing the way Seviper almost effortlessly dispatched the Pokémon, decide they want to capture it. They see that it likes fruit, so they lure it with a basket of fruit left on the other side of a trap hole. Seviper just picks up the basket with its tail, stretches over the trapdoor, and glides away. Team Rocket get mad and jump out from the bushes, straight onto the trapdoor, and fall in. However, they don't let it discourage them. Turns out, they had a backup plan, but their plan using a net doesn't work either; Seviper just bites through the net.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Ash and Pikachu are observing Treecko. Meanwhile, the Rockets have lunch, during which they fight over the last rice ball. When they accidentally send it flying into the nearby brook, [[James]] and {{MTR}} freak out, but [[Jessie]] calmly breaks out a rice ball she'd hidden "just in case", angering her partners. However, Seviper sneaks up on her and swipes the rice ball just seconds before she chomps down on it. Jessie gets mad and sends out {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} (The only Pokémon she has after releasing her {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}) and commands it to "teach that thieving Seviper a lesson". Wobbuffet obeys, but as it can't attack until something or someone else attacks it first, nothing happens. [[James]] soon points this out after a moment, and a frustrated Jessie recalls Wobbuffet, grumbling about how it's "never useful when necessary". She then grabs Meowth and hurls him at Seviper, commanding a {{m|Double-Edge}} attack. As he soars towards Seviper, Meowth screams that he doesn't know that attack just before the Fang Snake Pokémon smacks him across the face with its tail, sending him flying backwards into his comrades.

As all three hit the ground, another rice ball is knocked out of Jessie's pocket and rolls towards Seviper. James and {{MTR}} are surprised by this revelation as Jessie chases after the rice ball, though she fails to get it back. To the trio's horror, Jessie's hair gets caught in Seviper's jaws in the process and a large chunk of it gets cut off. Enraged, Jessie violently mauls Seviper mercilessly with her "{{m|Fury Swipes}}" and "{{m|Mega Kick}}" in front of her terrified partners, who are seen hugging each other in desperation and fear throughout the majority of the scene. The ferocious beating knocks Seviper out cold, and Jessie, still seething with anger even though she has calmed down a bit, seizes it by the neck. Fortunately for Seviper, James and Meowth quickly remind Jessie that she is supposed to catch it. This calms Jessie down, and, as James and Meowth sigh with relief, she tosses a [[Poké Ball]] at Seviper, capturing it at last.

At the Pokémon Center, Brock is explaining Nurse Joy's position in the family to May (she's the younger sister of the second cousin of Nurse Joy in [[Oldale Town]]'s first cousin) when {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}} rushes in and indicates that Treecko ran away from the Center. Ash and his friends run out, calling for it, and see it jumping down a waterfall, onto a rock, and into the water. They realize that it's [[pokemon training|training]], trying to break the rock with its tail. After a few more jumps, Treecko has an idea. It spins to increase its power before hitting the rock, finally breaking it, much to the amazement of the group. Ash congratulates Treecko and runs out with Pikachu to meet it, but Pikachu gets captured by Team Rocket.

Ash, enraged, sends out his Taillow, while James sends out {{TP|James|Cacnea}} against it, and yells as Cacnea hugs him, ordering it to use {{m|Pin Missile}}, to which Taillow dodges successfully. Jessie then sends out Seviper, and the "twerps" are surprised to see that it's the same one that faced them before. Treecko, after Ash's short speech, faces up to it, and after an exchange of attacks between Seviper's {{m|Poison Tail}} and Treecko's {{m|Quick Attack}} and uses its new spinning move, defeats it and rescues Pikachu. It says that now it's had its revenge, Pikachu can finish it off, so Pikachu uses {{m|Thunder}} to send the Rockets flying. Ash thanks Treecko for battling for him, and finds he's won Treecko's trust when Treecko turns and holds out its tail. Ash and Pikachu shake hands with Treecko's tail, laughing happily.

[[File:AG008 Error 2.png|thumb|200px|right|May's missing gloves]]
* This is one of the rare occasions in the 4Kids dub that [[rice ball]]s have been referred to as such instead of something more Western.
* This episode is featured on the ''Volume 12: Treecko'' copy of [[Pokémon All-Stars]].
* The title of this episode references "a tale with a twist."
* This is the second time a Pokémon has taken a chunk of Jessie's hair, the first instance being a {{p|Scyther}}.
* This is the first episode where an instrumental version of 'Advanced Adventure' is used as the new action sequence. This arrangement is used throughout the Advanced Generation series.

===Errors===
[[File:AG008 Error.png|right|thumb|200px|Jessie's hair is back to normal]]
* After the few seconds she is off-camera between throwing her [[Poké Ball]] and picking it up, Jessie's hair is back to full length, when it was just {{m|Bite|bitten}} off by {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}.
** This is an example of [[Anime physics|anime physics.]]
* Brock tells Forretress to use "Spike attack" instead of {{m|Spikes}} attack.
* When Jessie is attacking Seviper, James says Jessie used "Megaton Kick", instead of {{m|Mega Kick}}. "Megaton Kick" happens to be the Japanese name of the [[move]].
* When Treecko has escaped from Pokémon Center and everybody runs out, only Ash, May and Max's feet are shown to run out before the door shuts.
* When May calls out her Torchic her gloves disappear for a second

===Dub edits===
*When Jessie uses 'Fury Swipes' on Seviper, the first second of the attack is obscured by a full screen 'impact star'. This edit only happens in the US version however, the UK showings on Cartoon Network TOO plays the scene with no edits.

==Synopsis==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are on their way to [[Rustboro City]] and are now lost. After a fight between {{an|May}} and [[Max]], Ash sees a bunch of {{p|Treecko}} running through the trees. He says that he had wanted one since he first saw one at [[Professor Birch]]'s lab. He quickly tosses a [[Poké Ball]], but the Treecko bats it away with its tail, and May sarcastically reminds Ash that you have to battle the Pokémon first. Their talk is cut short when {{an|Brock}} notices that the Treecko are running away. Ash chases after them and the others follow. Ash sees what looks like a huge, odd tree up ahead. Unfortunately, he doesn't pay attention to where he's going and falls face first down a steep hill. When he looks up, he sees that the tree is right in front of him, and it's massive! It's more than twice as tall as any other tree in the forest, very thick, and, as Ash comments, almost magical-looking. It also doesn't have any leaves and looks somewhat dead. Suddenly a sharp twig lands in the ground right in front of Ash's face. He looks up and sees an angry-looking Treecko sitting on a branch with another twig in its hand. Ash challenges it to a battle, and it leaps from branch to branch, then jumps through the air and spits its twig at {{AP|Pikachu}}. Pikachu dodges, and Treecko lands next to it and smacks it with its tail. Treecko taunts Pikachu, then when it tries to attack, dodges and hits Pikachu with its tail again. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is watching the whole thing and they're impressed with Treecko's performance. They have a [[boss fantasy]] about Treecko giving {{an|Giovanni}} a massage, and decide to catch it, but then they notice that there are now a lot of Treecko surrounding Ash and Pikachu. An old Treecko tries to talk to the one that Ash battled, but is only yelled at and smacked. The other Treecko look pretty mad, but the old Treecko tells them not to attack. [[Jessie]] is excited because she loves watching other people's troubles, and asks Meowth for a translation. The old Treecko says that the tree is going to die and all the Treecko need to move to another tree, but the other Treecko answers that it was born on that tree and isn't going to give up on it, no matter what. This really moves [[James]] and Meowth, but Jessie doesn't think it's very heroic at all, since life is full of change. She explains all about this, until they notice that all the Treecko are leaving except for one. Once the others are out of sight, that Treecko runs off too. Ash is prepared to follow it, but Pikachu has a better idea, so they stake out in the tree.

Meanwhile, Brock, May, and Max are eating. Max is worried about Ash, but Brock tells him that Ash will be fine, and they agree to go look for him after they're done eating. As the sun sets, Ash and Pikachu are still in the tree. Ash decides to send {{AP|Taillow}} to look for his friends, since he's afraid they might be worried about him. As soon as Taillow flies away, Treecko appears carrying a leaf full of water. It carefully waters the tree, then goes off to get more water, as Ash wonders whether it's too late to save the tree. As darkness falls, he and Pikachu start to help the Treecko water the tree. It's angry at first, but it warms up to them when it realizes they just want to help. Suddenly, they hear a commotion and discover that Team Rocket is using a bulldozer to ram all the trees, knocking the sleeping Treecko into their net. When they spot Ash, Pikachu, and Treecko, Team Rocket charges them, sending them flying. After their motto, they take off in their balloon, now covered in neon lights, with all the Treecko in a cage. Ash orders Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but it turns out that the lights were actually electricity blockers. Ash calls for Taillow, but then remembers that he sent it away to find the others. Team Rocket takes the opportunity to grab Pikachu in a net. But the Treecko that Ash befriended wasn't caught in the net, and now it's angry. It spits its twig at the balloon, but it just bounces off. Team Rocket laughs, and James sends out his [[James's Cacnea|Cacnea]]. Treecko leaps from the top of a tree into the balloon, and starts attacking Team Rocket. Jessie accidentally hits the button that releases the Treecko. Then Treecko leaps onto the balloon itself and taunts Cacnea. Cacnea angrily sends a {{m|Pin Missile}} Treecko's way, but Treecko dodges and the attack punctures the balloon. The Treecko free Pikachu and they all abandon ship as the balloon zooms off into the distance, sending Team Rocket blasting off again.

The Treecko that Ash befriended makes up with the old one, but still doesn't want to give up on the tree. Everything seems to be going well until the giant tree splits in two! The Treecko try to hold it together and Ash gets a rope out of his backpack, but they are stopped when the sun rises, illuminating the tree beautifully. As they look on, Ash and the Treecko have some sort of vision of the tree's life from a seed to the majestic tree it used to be. But the vision fades and they're only looking at a split, dead tree again, and it suddenly splits even more and falls over completely. A seed rolls from the wreckage and stops at Treecko's feet. Ash takes this as a sign of gratitude from the tree for trying so hard to save it. But Treecko doesn't take kindly to this suggestion and hits Ash. He realizes that Treecko is trying to tell him it's ready to battle. Just then, Brock, May, Max, and Taillow show up.

Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which Treecko dodges multiple times, but finally scores a hit. However, Treecko doesn't seem to have taken much damage, and Max reminds them that {{t|Electric}} attacks aren't very effective on {{t|Grass}}-type Pokémon. Pikachu uses {{m|Quick Attack}}, which Treecko dodges, but that leaves it vulnerable to a Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt does a lot of damage and knocks Treecko out. Max doesn't understand what happened, but Brock explains that usually Electric attacks don't work well because the Pokémon can diffuse the electricity into the ground. Since Treecko was hit in the air, there was nowhere for the electricity to go. Ash throws a [[Poké Ball]] and catches {{AP|Treecko}}. Ash lets it out of its Poké Ball, and the old Treecko gives it the seed from the dead tree. Treecko plants it, then leaves with Ash and friends as the other Treecko care for the newly sprouted tree.

==Synopsis==
{{an|Brock}} is ready to travel again and has joined up with {{Ash}}, {{an|May}} and [[Max]] as they continue en route towards [[Rustboro City]]. In the forest they encounter a giant {{p|Zigzagoon}}, which they soon realize is actually a Trainer in a Zigzagoon suit. The Trainer is [[Nicholai]] the knickerbocker; who believes in becoming one with Pokémon in order to understand them. When Nicholai learns that May is the daughter of the {{ci|Petalburg}} [[Gym Leader]] [[Norman]] and instantly asks for a battle, May accepts, however, Brock claims she is not ready as Torchic is still inexperienced.

In the battle Nicholai sends out a {{p|Mudkip}} while May sends out Torchic, Nicholai quickly changes into a Mudkip costume. May uses {{m|Ember}} while Nicholai commands a {{m|Water Gun}} that drenches the Ember. May orders a Peck attack, to which Max warns against, but it is too late, and Nicholai commands Mudkip to blast Torchic with a close-range water gun, knocking it out. Nicholai starts to make jokes on how easy it was to battle May and her father may be easier, this makes Max furious but Ash, Brock and May shrugs off the insult.

While having lunch, May realizes Max is missing they go on to search for him. Nearby Max is seen with a handful of berries and drops them on the ground then out of nowhere a group of Zigzagoon comes for the food, when all the food is finished the group of Zigzagoon ask for more, but Max says there is no more. This makes the Zigzagoon angry as they start attacking Max. At that point Ash, May and Brock arrives and try to save Max, but before they could do anything a big Zigzagoon appeared, it's Nicholai, Nicholai tames the Zigzagoon and captures one of them.

{{TRT}} then attempts to steal Nicholai's Mudkip. However, Nicholai saves it by dressing up in different Pokémon costumes.

After the apology from Max, Ash and Nicholai have a battle; Ash sends out {{AP|Taillow}} he caught [[AG004|last episode]] and Nicholai sends out his newly-acquired Zigzagoon. The episode concludes as both of them fight with their new Pokémon.

* When Nicholai walks away after defeating May, his Mudkip is on his right shoulder but when Team Rocket is watching him through their binoculars, the Mudkip is on his left shoulder.
* When Brock takes the food from Max to feed the Zigzagoon, he says there is enough for all the Zigzagoon, when he is only holding nine fruits. There were noticeably a lot more than nine Zigzagoon.

{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==

Deep in an underground sewer, {{TRT}} is talking to [[Dr. Zager]] about their next mission. Dr. Zager says that a {{p|Tirtouga}} will be needed, or its evolved form, {{p|Carracosta}}. [[James]] notes that first they have to obtain a [[Cover Fossil]], but Dr. Zager says he has already detected evidence of one in [[Twist Mountain]]. Dr. Zager wishes them luck, and the trio heads over there.

Meanwhile, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. are traveling through Twist Mountain, but soon realize they are lost. Suddenly, they hear pounding. {{AP|Pikachu}} and [[Iris's Axew|Axew]] then run along ahead, curious as to what it is. It turns out to be [[Ferris]], a Pokémon archeologist, digging up fossils. With the help of his {{p|Drilbur}}'s {{m|Slash}}, the fossil is successfully dug up. Ferris then notices Ash and friends, along with Pikachu and Axew. Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} are very impressed at what Ferris did, and Ferris says he is a Pokémon archeologist. They are then interrupted by [[Sierra]], another archeologist. She then confronts Ferris, saying that neither he nor Ash and friends should be in an off-limits area. Cilan explains that they got lost, and Sierra offers to show them the way out. However, Ferris then interrupts to show her the Fossil he found. Sierra is not impressed, however, and calls Ferris an "amateur archeologist". This doesn't stop him though, and proceeds to show the other archeologists his discovery. One of them apologizes to Ferris for not believing him, and asks what type of fossil it is. Ferris says he isn't sure yet, but will find out soon. Sierra, though, is still skeptical.

Later, at Ferris' place, he removes excess rock from the fossil, and proclaims it a Cover Fossil, without a doubt. Ferris then tells of how he befriended a Tirtouga once. He, Sierra, and his other friends were exploring that same area, despite it being off-limits. Ferris is having trouble keeping up with them, and stops to catch a breath. Sierra tells him that the group will be proceeding ahead, and then does so. Ferris then notices a bright light, and then uncovers the rock covering it. It happens to be a time hole, and Ferris is transported back in time. Upon arriving there, he befriends a Tirtouga. They play for a while, and then Ferris realizes that he should go back to his own time, as it's getting late. But before he does so, he gives Tirtouga his pendant. Back in the cave, Sierra and the other members of the group find Ferris, but before Ferris can explain, a boy in his group notices his pendant is missing, but assumes he dropped it somewhere.

After the flashback, Sierra claims it was just Ferris' dream and doesn't believe it, just as she says every time Ferris tries to tell her. Suddenly, a mechanical hand swipes the fossil on the table, shocking everyone. It turns out to be none other than Team Rocket! After the usual [[Team Rocket's motto|motto]], Ash is furious, and attempts to attack them. However, Team Rocket starts to retreat in Dr. Zager's helicopter, prompting both Ash and Ferris to climb on, despite Sierra, Iris, and Cilan's discouraging.

Now inside Dr. Zager's helicopter, Ash and Ferris are trapped by a force field. Ash tries to destroy it with Pikachu's moves, but no good. Dr. Zager then shows up, and notices the "visitors". Team Rocket introduces Ash and Ferris to Dr. Zager, the man behind the planning of the Trio's schemes. Ash demands what they're going to do with the fossil, and Dr. Zager explains that they will restore the fossil, and get the Tirtouga that was revived to lead them to the time hole in twist Mountain. They will then capture other ancient Pokémon that also live in that time period. Both Ash and Ferris are furious about the scheme, but they can't do anything about it at the moment. Dr. Zager then successfully restores the fossil into Tirtouga. However, Tirtouga then uses {{m|AncientPower}}, destroying the helicopter. It quickly escapes, much to everyone's dismay. Ash and Ferris go to try to find it, and Jessie, James, and {{MTR}} do the same.

Ash and Ferris eventually find Tirtouga by the river. Ferris tries to convince Tirtouga he is his friend, but it doesn't believe him and proceeds to attack both him and Ash.

}}
'''GLORY DAY ~That Shining Day~''' (Japanese: '''GLORY DAY 〜輝くその日〜''' ''GLORY DAY ~Kagayaku Sono Hi~'') was the fifth ending theme song of the Japanese [[Advanced Generation series|Advanced Generation]] [[Pokémon anime]] series, and the 18th ending overall.

It debuted in [[AG099]], and a second cut with different lyrics debuted in [[AG109]]; the second cut was replaced by ''[[Pokémon Counting Song]]'' in [[AG135]], just to reappear again as the ending in [[AG150]] with a different animation. This time, it lasted until [[AG172]] when it was replaced once again, this time by ''[[I Won't Lose! ~Haruka's Theme~]]''.

The animation for ''GLORY DAY'' contains the most complex animation seen in any Pokémon ending sequence: it features animated images on top of a moving sky background. Included are scenes of all the current major characters, their Pokémon, and all of {{Ash}}'s past Pokémon. The new animation (used from [[AG150]] to [[AG172]]) featured {{Ash}} and [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] walking on a side of the screen as clips from the current episode were being played on the left side.

The POWER MIX, most likely the version used for the television ending, is only slightly different from the original mix. It features an organ at the beginning and brass instead of synthesizer during the final bridge.

| <ab>''Glory Day! Even in pouring rain,
Glory Day! Even in a strong north wind,
Glory Day! Just accept it all,
And push ahead! Glory Day!

The clouds flow into the distance,
Revealing the sun.
When the sweat pours down
I feel I'm alive!

There are times I'm so down,
It seems the worst, but
Surely I can keep going
If I believe in myself.

Glory Day! When you lose your way
Glory Day! You should ask the wind
Glory Day! If you listen quietly
You will hear it: "Believe Myself!"

Though I see nothing but the times
We clashed head on,
I'm sure I'll find
Your overflowing smile.

A friend running up to tell me "You did it!"
Is a sparkling diamond.
It will never grow dim
So long as I believe in everyone.

Glory Day! The dazzling sun
Glory Day! And the flowing clouds
Glory Day! I'll pull them along with me
And reach my goal! Glory Day!

Glory Day! When you lose your way
Glory Day! You should ask the wind
Glory Day! If you listen quietly
You will hear it: "Believe Myself!"

Glory Day! The dazzling sun
Glory Day! And the flowing clouds
Glory Day! I'll pull them along with me
And reach my goal! Glory Day!''</ab>

And push ahead! Glory Day!

The clouds flow into the distance,
Revealing the sun.
When the sweat pours down
I feel I'm alive!

There are times I'm so down,
It seems the worst, but
Surely I can keep going
If I believe in myself.

Glory Day! You should ask the wind
Glory Day! If you listen quietly
You will hear it: "Believe Myself!"

Though I see nothing but the times
We clashed head on,
I'm sure I'll find
Your overflowing smile.

A friend running up to tell me "You did it!"
Is a sparkling diamond.
It will never grow dim
So long as I believe in everyone.

Glory Day! The dazzling sun
Glory Day! And the flowing clouds
Glory Day! I'll pull them along with me
And reach my goal! Glory Day!

'''GLORY DAY ~That Shining Day~''' (Japanese: '''GLORY DAY 〜輝くその日〜''' ''GLORY DAY ~Kagayaku Sono Hi~'') was the fifth ending theme song of the Japanese [[Advanced Generation series|Advanced Generation]] [[Pokémon anime]] series, and the 18th ending overall.

It debuted in [[AG099]], and a second cut with different lyrics debuted in [[AG109]]; the second cut was replaced by ''[[Pokémon Counting Song]]'' in [[AG135]], just to reappear again as the ending in [[AG150]] with a different animation. This time, it lasted until [[AG172]] when it was replaced once again, this time by ''[[I Won't Lose! ~Haruka's Theme~]]''.

The animation for ''GLORY DAY'' contains the most complex animation seen in any Pokémon ending sequence: it features animated images on top of a moving sky background. Included are scenes of all the current major characters, their Pokémon, and all of {{Ash}}'s past Pokémon. The new animation (used from [[AG150]] to [[AG172]]) featured {{Ash}} and [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] walking on a side of the screen as clips from the current episode were being played on the left side.

The POWER MIX, most likely the version used for the television ending, is only slightly different from the original mix. It features an organ at the beginning and brass instead of synthesizer during the final bridge.

The '''Café Cabin''' (Japanese: '''やまごや''' ''Mountain Hut'') is a small restaurant located on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}, north of [[Solaceon Town]], in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. It sells {{DL|Drink|Moomoo Milk}} for {{PDollar}}500 per bottle. The Café Cabin is the only place in [[Sinnoh]] where {{player}}s may purchase Moomoo Milk. In the {{pkmn|anime}} it is called the '''Mountain Hut Maid Café'''.

According to the cashier, they prefer to sell only Moomoo Milk over any other drink.

Released Pokémon

2012-09-03T18:11:19Z

Joltaex:

{{incomplete}}
[[Image:Ash Butterfree DP099.png|right|thumb|Ash saying farewell to his {{AP|Butterfree}}.]]
'''Released Pokémon''' are [[Pokémon]] that have been {{pkmn2|caught}} by a [[Pokémon Trainer]], but are sent back into the {{pkmn2|wild}}.

==In the games==
In every [[version|main series]] Pokémon game, players have been able to release previously captured Pokémon. Unlike the anime, this cannot be done while traveling, but must be done with the [[Pokémon Storage System]] in a [[Pokémon Center]]. A condition coded into the game exists that disallows the release of Pokémon knowing certain [[HM]] moves, such as {{m|Surf}}. This will prevent the player being trapped in an area like [[Mossdeep City]]. A Pokémon might also refuse to be released if it has a very high [[friendship]] level or if it is the only Pokémon in the player's party.

Released Pokémon cannot be found again in the wild. The only exception is in {{g|Mystery Dungeon}}, where if a [[legendary Pokémon]] is released from its [[Friend Area]] or Chimecho Assembly, it will reappear in the dungeon that it can be fought, save those who only join once when they ask to.

==In the anime==
Throughout the [[Pokémon anime]], a Trainer releases a Pokémon for several reasons. The Trainer may see it as weak, as [[Damian]] did with {{AP|Charmander|Charizard}} and [[Paul]] with {{AP|Chimchar}}. The Pokémon may have to do something that requires it to leave (such as {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Butterfree}}). Another common reason is that the Pokémon does not listen, frustrating the Trainer, much like when {{an|Dawn}} caught [[Dawn's Pachirisu|Pachirisu]]. To guarantee release, some Trainers destroy the [[Poké Ball]], as seen with [[Jessie]] and her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}}.
[[File:Paul Chimchar release.png|right|thumb|The blue coloring indicating release.]]

* {{DL|Cilan (anime)|Basculin|Cilan's Basculin}} (''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'')

==In the manga==
Various {{pkmn|manga}} touch on the aspect of releasing Pokémon.
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'' arcs often culminate in the capture of a [[legendary Pokémon]], but these are almost always released afterwards. Pokémon shown to be released include {{adv|Red}}'s [[Vee]] while under Team Rocket's control and {{adv|Yellow}}'s Seadra.

==Team Plasma==
[[Team Plasma]]'s ultimate goal has been to convince Trainers to release their Pokémon. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, it is revealed that their leader, [[Ghetsis]], wanted to make himself the only Trainer to own Pokémon in [[Unova]], making him the regions leader almost by default. [[N]], Team Plasma's king, appears frequently to the [[player character|player]] to battle him or her and convince them to release their Pokémon. Each time, he appears with a different team.

Although there were apparently no instances of anyone releasing their Pokémon in the games, several Trainers are seen releasing their Pokémon whenever Team Plasma holds a speech in the [[Pokemon Adventures|manga]]. {{adv|Black}} himself owns a Pokémon previously owned by another unseen person ({{p|Galvantula}}), and now uses on his team after he decided to keep it after Team Plasma's first seen speech and it agreed to be with him. {{adv|White}} herself also released her company's {{p|Tepig}}, [[Gigi]], although this was against her own will, as it was technically Gigi who left White after it learned about its battle capabilities.

{{StrategyWiki}}

'''Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンレンジャーバトナージ''' ''Pokémon Ranger Vatonage'') is an action-adventure game for the Nintendo DS and the sequel to {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}. It was released in Japan on March 20, 2008, and it was released in America on November 10, 2008.

The game is set in a new region called [[Almia]] where the base of operations is a [[Ranger Schoo]]l that the main characters have just graduated from. The selection of [[partner Pokémon]] has risen from solely {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} to a choice between 17 different species. Additionally, there are several side quests and a card collection system used to power up the [[Capture Styler]].

Special missions can be downloaded from the Nintendo Wi-Fi service by using the [[Ranger Net]].

==Basic information==
* It takes place in the region of [[Almia]]. In the story, the player character starts out as a student in a Pokémon Ranger School. After a few tasks, he or she then graduates.
* The player can choose to play as a male or a female protagonist. Players can choose the name of their protagonist, the defaults of which are [[Kellyn]] (male) and {{ra|Kate}} (female).
* The game features [[Generation IV]] Pokémon.
* The player will have a selectable Pokémon partner. After doing certain quests, the player can choose if he or she wants the Pokémon to come with them. Selectable partners include {{P|Munchlax}}, {{P|Turtwig}}, {{P|Chimchar}}, {{P|Piplup}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{P|Mime Jr.}}, {{P|Cranidos}}, {{P|Shieldon}}, {{P|Croagunk}}, {{P|Machop}}, {{P|Pachirisu}}, {{P|Starly}}, {{P|Hippopotas}}, {{P|Snover}}, {{P|Misdreavus}}, {{P|Sneasel}}, and {{P|Gible}}. They can be changed by talking to them in the player's family farm south of the player's house. It should be noted that each Pokémon is of one of the 17 [[type]]s of Pokémon, and that each Pokémon has a different length of a Partner Energy bar. The partner's energy may also be filled faster when it is in a happy mood, signaled by black or multicolored music notes rising above it.
* The [[villainous team]] is named [[Team Dim Sun]] (Japanese: '''ヤミヤミ団''' ''Team {{tt|Yamiyami|Darkness darkness}}).
* [[Team Dim Sun]] uses computers called Miniremo Units to hypnotize Pokémon and put them under their control.
* The game has sixty optional, non-story-progressing missions called Quests where the player helps citizens of Almia.
* A player may only take on one quest at a time.
* When a player completes each quest, they get a power boost to their [[Capture Styler]].
* Quests are divided into two types - Pokémon befriending and Quests that players receive a power boost for their Capture Styler.
*After capturing the first 266 Pokémon in the {Adex|Browser}}, the player can go up against {{p|Regigigas}}. The player must currently have in their party {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}} and {{p|Registeel}}. Regigigas is found in a quicksand pit, hidden in the [[Hippowdon Temple]].
* A system of collectible cards can power up the Capture Styler.
* The player is able to ride on Pokémon in some environments, including lava, rivers and icy waters.
* There are four Pokémon that a player can ride on to progress to other locations - {{p|Empoleon}}, {{p|Floatzel}}, {{p|Doduo}}, and {{p|Staraptor}}.
* There were three Pokémon unlocked in this game by ''Special Missions'' in [[Ranger Net]], in the vein of the {{p|Manaphy}} {{pkmn|Egg}} mission in the prequel. These missions are no longer available. The Pokémon available were a {{p|Manaphy}} Egg, a {{p|Riolu}} with {{m|Aura Sphere}} and {{p|Darkrai}} with {{m|Dark Void}}.
* In addition to the aforementioned special missions, there is another group of missions called ''extra missions''. The rare Pokémon encountered during these missions are {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Shaymin}} (Land Forme). Unlike in the special missions, the Pokémon captured in extra missions are not allowed to be transferred to {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}.
* The game can utilize the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for unlocking both special and extra missions, but only for a limited period of time. They won't work for different regions, only the specific game version when the event is held.
*Special Missions can be repeated but sending the Pokémon can only be done once. This is an improvement over the original, as replaying the Manaphy mission only played a cutscene in which Lunick, Solana, and the Professor's assistant discuss Manaphy.
*A [[Capture Arena]] is available after the game for players to hone their skills.

==Plot==
{{Spoilers}}
The game follows the protagonist, a young [[Pokémon Ranger]] as he or she graduates from [[Ranger School]] and takes on the duties of a fully fledged Ranger. The male is called {{tt|Kellyn|Hajime in the Japanese version}} and the female is called {{tt|Kate|Hitomi in the Japanese version}}. Only Kellyn appears in the [[Pokémon anime]].

Missions advance the story, which is centered around the antagonists [[Team Dim Sun]] (Team Yami Yami in the Japanese version) and their unknown intentions involving Pokémon mind-control machines called {{Gigaremo units|Gigaremos}} powered by dark crystals. Quests usually consist of the player traveling around the [[Almia]] region, performing varying tasks requested by citizens in exchange for rewards.

The game starts at the [[Ranger School]], with the player enrolling as a student after expertly capturing a {{p|Pikachu}}. The player quickly makes friends with two of classmates, [[Rhythmi]] who dreams of being an Operator, and [[Keith]], a rival, who dreams of becoming a Top Ranger. After the player and Keith nearly discover what [[Kincaid|Mr. Kincaid]], a teacher, is doing in the basement, Mr. Kincaid seals it off from all students. Both the player and Keith show strong potential as Rangers, and graduate with full honors after defeating two {{p|Tangrowth}} at their graduation ceremony. The player stays in Almia, while Keith and Rhythmi go to [[Fiore]] as part of their training. The player's family moves into a nearby town known as [[Chicole Village]], and the player goes to live with them.

The next day, the player becomes an Area Ranger in the local village of [[Vientown]]. After recovering a Partner Pokémon at the beach, the player begins his/her first major mission by patrolling a nearby cave. The Pokémon inside the cave are unusually aggressive and resistant to capture by the ranger's styler. At the back of the cave, the player finds a strange machine (later called a [[Gigaremo]]) that appears to be controlling the Pokémon. The rangers promptly destroy the device, freeing the Pokémon, and begin researching its abilities. Subsequently, the rangers discover that the Gigaremos are being set up by Team Dim Sun, suggesting wider criminal activities. The player travels to the Ranger Union, the headquarters of all ranger operations in Almia, to warn the rangers about the Gigaremo. On the way, the player sees [[Altru Inc.]], a powerful oil company that is building a massive tower in the center of the Almia region.

Soon afterward, the player is informed of a fire in the [[Vien Forest]], north of Vientown. After going into the forest, the player will have to capture a {{p|Blastoise}} and use its [[Rain Dance]] ability to douse the fire. Afterwards, the player is congratulated on how well the player has done, and can progress onto the city on the other end of the Vien Forest-[[Pueltown]].

A few days later, the player is sent on a mission to retrieve his missing team leader, [[Barlow]]. Barlow was last seen in [[Boyleland]] investigating a volcanic cave. The player will have to go to Pueltown and take a boat to Boyleland. Deep inside the cave, the player finds members of Team Dim Sun deploying new Miniremo devices to control all of the Pokémon on the island. The player dodges the guards and learns that Barlow has been captured and is being placed on a ship along with the Pokémon. The player sneaks on board, locates Barlow, and the two launch an assault on the ship's bridge. Although Barlow's Styler is destroyed in the ensuing attack, the player forces Team Dim Sun, including its leader, Mr. Kincaid, to abandon the ship, saving all of Boyleland's Pokémon. The ship crashes into the yard of the Ranger School, never to sail again.

Recognizing the threat posed by Team Dim Sun, the Ranger Union promptly promotes the player to the rank of [[Top Ranger]]. At the Union, the player discovers that Keith has also been promoted to Top Ranger, and that Rhythmi has achieved her dream of becoming a Top Operator, where she serves as the player's guide. During the player's first mission as a Top Ranger, he helps another Top Ranger, named [[Sven]], to investigate a Dim Sun mining operation in the Chroma Ruins, east of the Ranger Union. They discover that Dim Sun is searching for dark crystals for powering the Gigaremo devices.

After defeating a {{p|Spiritomb}}, they also discover a massive hole, apparently left from removing the legendary "Shadow Crystal" whose current location is unknown. While studying the dark crystal retrieved from a captured Gigaremo, several Union workers accidentally discover that the crystals can be neutralized by a set of red, blue, and yellow [[shard|shards]]. The player and Keith go on to separately collect the sources of these shards; the blue gem from Almia Castle, the red gem from Boyle Volcano, and the yellow gem from the [[Hippowdon Temple]]. Although the player takes both the blue and red gems, Keith is captured by Dim Sun, which uses him to blackmail the player into surrendering the yellow gem.

Meanwhile, Sven raids Dim Sun's undersea base, stealing plans for an "Incredible Machine". The plans reveal that [[Altru Inc.]]'s tower is actually a massive Gigaremo powered by the Shadow Crystal and that Altru has been behind Dim Sun's activities. Realizing that the tower will become operational within hours (i.e. during the tower's "opening ceremony"), the Ranger Union orders all of its rangers to attack the tower. Equipped with a specialized Styler designed to overcome the Gigaremo's influence, the player succeeds in deactivating the tower's force fields and rescues the yellow gem, allowing the other rangers to launch an airborne assault on the Shadow Crystal at the tower's top. However, the tower reaches operational capacity before the rangers can reach the Shadow Crystal. Altru Inc.'s president, [[Blake Hall]], takes the chance to destroy the ranger's only hope of disabling the tower (the three colored gems) by charging the crystal to its maximum power level and summoning his strongest Pokémon, {{p|Darkrai}}. Darkrai instead goes insane from the intense power overload, attacks Blake, and darkens the area, preventing the rangers from approaching the Shadow Crystal. By empowering his/her Styler with the gems, the player stops Darkrai's rage, allowing the other rangers to disable the tower by converting the Shadow Crystal into a "Luminous Crystal" which undoes the mental torture inflicted on Almia's Pokémon. In the end, peace returns to Almia and its inhabitants, and the characters enjoy a concert originally planned for Altru Inc. (ironically played by the [[Go-Rock Quads]] from the original Pokémon Ranger) while the player returns home to his family. The game ends showing Darkrai circling the Luminous Crystal, signifying the return of peace.

==Reception==
Shadows of Almia received mixed reviews in the press. It was described as being "more accessible and enjoyable than its predecessor" by Official Nintendo Maganzine UK<ref>[http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/article.php?id=6507 Official Nintendo Magazine]</ref> and as "a no-nonsense fun game" by N-Europe Magazine.<ref>[http://www.n-europe.com/review.php?rid=428 N-Europe Magazine]</ref> However, it was criticized for its similarities to the original Pokémon Ranger, with IGN commenting that "for the Pokémon fans that already got their fix two years ago, this isn't necessary"<ref>[http://uk.ds.ign.com/articles/929/929109p1.html IGN]</ref> and GamePro stating that "there's nothing compelling or new enough."<ref>[http://www.gamepro.com/article/reviews/208296/pokemon-ranger-shadows-of-almia/ GamePro]</ref> The game received an average score of 67% on [http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ds/pokemonrangershadowsofalmia Metacritic], 2% lower than the first Pokémon Ranger.

==Trivia==
* [[Fiore]] is mentioned many times in the game, as are characters from the previous games.
** The main character's family moved from the Fiore region.
** {{ra|Keith}} and [[Rhythmi]] were originally stationed in Fiore after graduation.
** Marcus, an Operator in the Ranger Union, says he's in charge of Rangers in Fiore.
** [[Professor Hastings]] returns, as does [[Murph]], though he isn't a Ranger anymore.
** There are references to {{ra|Spenser}} and [[Elita]] on the Pledge Stone; they both wrote their goals on it.
** The [[Go-Rock Quads]] return as a famous band; they also mention that their name isn't "[[Go-Rock Squad]]".
* The Ranger Browser no longer gives ''flavor text''. It now only gives the Pokémon's attack data.
* When describing the quest "Murph's Ranger Contest", Murph uses the word "[[Eeveelution]]", which had never previously been used in the games, despite longtime usage as fan terminology.
* When looking through Brighton's Diary, Murph says ''Brighton... Brighton... Isn't that some kind of candy?''. This is likely a reference to the popular English candy called {{wp|Rock (confectionery)|Rock}}, which is mainly found in the city of Brighton along the South Coast of the United Kingdom, and is sometimes referred to as ''Brighton Rock'' or ''Brighton Rock-Candy''.
* Failing to stop the sinking of the [[Cargo Ship]] is the first occasion the player character in a Pokémon game can die.

{{KingdomInfobox|Ignis|カエンの国|Kaen|Fire|[[Hideyoshi]], [[Kanbei]], [[Hanbei]], [[Mitsunari]]}}
'''Ignis''' (Japanese: '''カエンの国''' ''Kaen Nation'') is a Kingdom in [[Pokémon Conquest]].

==Battlefield==
The battlefield of Ignis is a fiery volcano with lava that can only be crossed with a {{t|Fire}} or {{t|Flying}} type. There are also flame pillars blocking some roads that can be extinguished with {{t|Water}}, {{t|Rock}}, or {{t|Ground}} type attacks, and crossed with a Fire or Flying type. There are also hot springs the player can use to heal his or her [[Pokémon]] of [[damage]] and [[status]], and sometimes there will be a message saying: The Volcano has Activated! The turn after this message, fiery rocks will fall on random tiles, dealing Fire-type damage to whatever Pokémon it hits.

==Border==
I've brought this up before about the horrid border coloration, but it has still stayed in place. I have an idea, in that we could colour it white and blue, like his clothing. It would look so much nicer. Torngentleman2 10:03, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
:That would probably be good. Why the box colors are those of Pikachu is quite puzzling. --[[User:Jda95|'''jda''']][[User talk:Jda95|'''95''']] 10:06, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
::I think they are the colors of the Red and Yellow games; because Ash is based on Red and Yellow was based on the anime.

::PS: Torngentleman2, you are not allowed to have images in your signature. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 10:12, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
:::Now that I'm looking at it, that would look much nicer. --[[User:Nathan2055|Nathan2055]][[User Talk:Nathan2055|talk]] 15:58, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
::::[[User:Kenji-girl/Sandbox|Thoughts?]] I personally like example 2. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 23:45, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
:::::I love Example 3. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 00:39, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
::::::Now for me it's a close call between number 2 & number 4, I think the yellow is good to have, honestly though, I like them all more than the current colours [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 01:01, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
:::::::Example 2 and 4 are my choices. I don't care which one as long as there is some yellow in there. It's not that important that we change the colors, but I do agree that the current borders are a bad combination of colors.--[[User:Alex726|'''Alex''''''726''']][[User talk:Alex726|'''(TALK)''']] 02:42, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
::::::::I too felt there should be yellow in there. Having white and blue only sort of implies he's a Water and Normal-type Trainer to me... Which is why I still like 2. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 04:25, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
:::::::::I definately think Example 2 is better than Example 4, but my personal favourite is Example 1, as Pikachu is in the image, so he's not unrepresented. [[User:Torngentleman2|Torngentleman2]] 16:52, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
::::::::::I've thought long and hard, I have decided I like the yellow on example 2 best [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 22:00, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

==Talk page note==
I don't think we need the "ALL CAPS" note on the top of this page. Wouldn't it be better leaving it as a hidden note or in some other format, as it doesn't seem to come up very often in the archives?--[[User:Tim Thomason|Tim Thomason]] 19:07, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
:We do. It comes up all the time but a lot of the edits get reverted. Check the history. [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 19:13, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

=='As of BW001'==
I think we should get rid of that note next to his age. If he hasn't aged over all that time, he's never going to reach 11. So I think we should just list his age as 10 and nothing but, so it looks neater. [[User:Torngentleman2|Torngentleman2]] 14:44, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
:Well, there have been two times on where it was implied that Ash was 11, one was in [[EP063]] (albeit being only present in the dub versions), and the special on where they celebrate the first anniversary since Ash and Pikachu first met, if I remembered which one it was, I'd link it. But yeah, the series have implied (whether on dub or not) that time has passed whether it actually happened or not. I guess that's why it's been pointed out. [[User:Masatoshi|Masatoshi]][[User_talk:Masatoshi|''talk'']] 15:12, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

I'm going to say this again. Do not turn this into an age discussion. That's not what this was about. Violators will be dealt with. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 00:01, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

== Manga ==

We most add that his counterpart in the pokemon adventures manga red is. Both have fight there rival in the final of the pokemon league and win. Both have a Pikachu. We most edit this.--[[User:Nazirbashir|Nazirbashir]] 08:11, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

== Just out of sheer curiosity... ==

Why was so much Trivia removed? I mean, that was a LOT of trivia, and I could see the reason for most of it being removed (out of date, etc.) but there is some of it that is still valid right (like the stuff about how he constructs his teams)? Just one person's opinion, and I am not staff or anything, so feel free to ignore or whatever, but I was just curious. --[[User:Jediknightdtv|ジェダイの騎士]][[User talk:Jediknightdtv|デジタルテレビ]] 23:11, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
:I think it was tooooo long, so someone shorten it so the page would load all right. That's just my guess. [[User:Truthseeker4449|Truthseeker4449]] 19:05, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

== Oversized page ==

I got a message on the edit page saying that it reached the limit of over 32kb and needs to be broken into smaller sections. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 22:16, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
:A lot of big pages say that. I don't believe it's a concern. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jello]][[User Talk:Jello|talk]] 22:17, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

== Rotation ==

Come on, why is Pikachu in rotation too? -[[User:Billy4b2004|Billy4b2004]] 06:57, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
:And we still have complaints? Geesh. Why are Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, and Scraggy there despite never leaving Ash's team? These are the pokémon he is using in Unova, so they are all in one section. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 15:25, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

== Archeops ==

The Archeops from [[BW040]] could potentially go in Ash's 'temporary' section, but I don't know whether or not it would be classed as being trained by Ash, or at least Ash in particular. What do you guys think? [[User:Torngentleman2|Torngentleman2]] 19:48, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
:Wait for the episode to air so we fully know the circumstances. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 23:47, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

:::I think it's a bit different. With Cottonee, he actually trained it, and used it to battle against Iris and Cilan. Archen he only helped teach to fly, and he wasn't the only one.

== Reshiram/Zekrom ==

If we are counting Reshiram/Zekrom as under Dread's ownership, then shouldn't we do the same for Ash? [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 20:41, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
:I haven't seen the movie. But movie characters =/= main characters. They are permitted to have Pokémon like that because that will be their only full appearance. Both [[Sam]] and Ash befriended Celebi equally yet Sam is the only one who has Celebi on his page. And since I didn't see the movie, I have no idea if Ash had as much influence over Reshiram/Zekrom as Dread Grangil did.

:Unless Ash specifically gave Reshiram/Zekrom commands, then they're just like all of the other legendaries he's befriended and worked with. Ash has to have some sort of dominance over them and/or having an extremely close relationship like May and Manaphy rather than just going along for the ride. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 01:50, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

:We already had a [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Ash_Ketchum/Archive_5#Lock HUGE] debate over this. We can never be certain who Ash rotates as seen in BW036 were he had the usually "rotatee", Tranquill, and Roggenrola at the same time. Meaning he had to send either Snivy, Tepig, or Scraggy (not Oshawott because he was there too). A lot of times they don't reveal who Ash sent back when he withdrew another. It's best for it to stay like this. Updating it every week is troublesome and causes conflicts. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 20:53, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

== Ash's Gliscor ==

Hi. um. Shouldn't Gliscor should be in the section with Charizard and Squirtle instead of the "Status Unknown". I mean, Ash left Gliscor with the Air Battle Master and then he recalled Gliscor back for the Sinnoh League. And if Gliscor is not in Pf. Oak's lab, Gliscor should be back with the Air Battle Master.{{unsigned|Mr. RPG}}

:Everyone is being needlessly picky and saying that we don't have confirmation that Gliscor went back into training. I argued on [[Talk:Ash's Gliscor]] that on one of Charizard's reappearances it was not confirmed that it went back to the Valley until it appeared next, yet that appears not to be a problem. Nothing suggests that Torterra or any of the others were sent back to Oak's lab - it was presumed. Why shouldn't Gliscor be presumed as well?

::Maybe he decided to keep Gliscor after it returned from McCann because its training was complete. Not like it had some special duty like Primeape, Squirtle, and Charizard. We can't assume things with Pokémon that are in training.

== Pikachu in Rotation? ==

OK, I know there has already been a big dispute over stuff like this, but I don't think it makes sense to say Pikachu is in rotation. Pikachu is ALWAYS with Ash in every episode, and Ash would need to transfer Pikachu via a Poké Ball, which Pikachu has not been in since the 1st episode. I think we can safely say that Pikachu is "on hand." サトシ 23:03, 27 December 2011 (UTC) ([[User:Satoshi101]])

::Pikachu was not on hand during the battle against Elesa, apparently. And the his pokeball have appeared in several episodes of the original series, including the Brock's debut.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] 23:11- 27 December 2011

::::::He's there because it's a little silly just to create a special little section for just Pikachu while everyone else is in rotation. We are aware that he would never take Pikachu off of his team. It's just to avoid having to update it every week and making unneeded sections.

== TRIVIA-MUST READ ==

Another Trivia piece if you don't mind......

Every time Ash battles and defeats a rival, he constantly loses to the next one in league tournaments, usually because his opponents are older, more experienced trainers with Pokémon that Ash has never seen or battled before.

Other than the Orange League, Ash has never won a league tournament.

Ash seems to catch less Pokémon when he is traveling with a new trainer.
While traveling with May he caught 6 Pokémon, and while traveling with Dawn he caught 5 and obtained Buizel by trading with Dawn.
While traveling with Misty he caught 18 Pokémon not counting Pikachu which he obtained by Professor Oak, and so far while traveling with Cilan and Iris he has caught 7 Pokémon and hatched Scraggy from an egg.

And then, after saying this, he proceeds to climb a tree.
