Note: I just wanna say sorry for not updating this page in a long time. A lot of the info on this page now is likely to be out of date. I might try and redo this page sometime if I get enough free time.

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

===Why I Like Pokémon===
Now you'll probably think that because I am a girl, I like pokémon because of all the cute little pokémon out there like [[Piplup]]. Well far from it! No, I am not one of those girls that fall for the power of the cute side. There is nothing cute about a fluffy little kitten to me. I am far more of a tom boy than a girl that would just do anything to cuddle a little puppy. I prefer the creatures that would be considered, er, less cuddly... Like reptiles for one example. I just love crocodiles and the now extinct dinosaurs. I also adore the mythical dragons and griffins. That said, I like pretty much all animals. There are no animals that I just hate and there aren't any least favourite animals for me. As said before in the 'About Moi' section, I do not like the anime of pokémon very much. I did used to like the older anime of pokémon. Back when the 151 original pokémon were the only pokémon in existence, the anime seemed a little less childish for me. I really think the anime has gone down hill since then. Now, I am sorry if you are an anime lover and are offended by what I am saying, but this is just my opinion on the anime. The anime always follows the same old routine, [[Ash]] and co meet a new pokémon (well, this normally happens, doesn't always), [[team rocket]] come and steal Pikachu and/or other pokémon, Pikachu thunderbolts team rocket, team rocket say they are blasting off again, Ash and co go off in search of new pokémon or to find another gym, some moral is learnt in the episode that has probably been learnt before. So I really have no interest in the anime what so ever. However, I do enjoy most of the pokémon games. Okay, now I have to admit that many pokémon games are repetitive, but addictive. For me, catching pokémon, training pokémon, trading pokémon and battling pokémon is just plain fun while it lasts. I also like many of the spin-off pokémon games as well though. I liked the mystery dungeon games, although I know many didn't think they were too good due to their terrible graphics and repetitive nature. But in my opinion, what more can you expect from nintendo? The pokémon company always recycles things in their games and never have the most breathtaking of graphics either. Not that I am saying they make bad games, they must be getting somewhere after all considering pokémon is the second best selling nintendo game series falling only behind Mario. One of the things I love about the pokémon games is their replay value, at least for me anyway. They are some games like [[pokémon ranger]] that once I have played through, I don't want to play through again. But then there are other like the mystery dungeon games and the main series games that I will always go back to again and again... Eventually... I also like collecting the trading cards, but only collecting them, I never really play the game. But I have to admit that the main reason for me loving pokémon so much is because of the pokémon themselves. I have liked pokémon ever since I was four years old, and now I am fourteen. I don't know how much longer I will love pokémon for, but I still adore it now so it may be for some time yet.

Kabutops: /* Intro */

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], Kabutops!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]].

*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others.

*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded.

==Please==
Slow down on editing the <code>User:</code> namespace. There are only three userspace edits allowed per day, and you have gone over the limit. Editing your userpage too much will lead to it being locked again. Instead of making multiple small edits, why not instead use the preview button (Alt + Shift + P) to check your edits before saving the page? Thank you. ----The [[Blastoise (Pokémon)|<font color="green">Kk</font>]][[Gary's Blastoise|<font color="blue">ll</font>]][[Blastoise (TCG)|<font color="black">nn</font>]][[User:Kkllnn|<font color="pink">ator</font>]] <small>[[User Talk:Kkllnn| blastoise]]</small> 21:37, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
**Sorry, I am very new to this whole wiki stuff and have not done much coding before. I wanted to save a lot because the other day while I was editing the page, I pressed backspace to delete an error I had made but it sent me back a page since it was not on the text. I ended up losing everything I had typed, but I will be sure not make this mistake again. Thanks for letting me know. ~-~[[User:Kabutops|Kabutops]]

Kabutops: /* Misty's */

{{ship}}
[[Image:Pokeship.jpg|Right|250px|thumb|Ash and Misty in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] [[manga]].]]

'''PokéShipping''' is one of the many names given to the {{Ash}}/[[Misty]] coupling supported by many fans of the [[Pokémon anime]]. In the early years of the fandom, PokéShipping was the most popular ship in existence and it still maintains a strong following to this day.

==Evidence==
===Misty's===
Most other shippers agree that Misty's love for Ash is undeniable. In fact, out of all the major and secondary characters, she is the only one who has made her romantic intentions apparent. This evidence became more prevalent throughout the Orange Season.

* ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon]]''
: Ash, willing to continue his journey alone, is followed by Misty. Upon noticing her pursuing him in [[Viridian Forest]], Ash puts her on the spot and asks her, "Why are you still following me?". Misty sweatdrops and unconvincingly stutters back, "M...My [[bike]]! I'm holding you responsible for my bike!" in an insincere manner.

: Why she is following him is made apparent near the end of the episode where she says, "I've never known anyone like him. He really does love Pokémon." She does so in body language befitting that of an infatuated girl. Also, in her statement, it is pretty much implied that she has some sort of interest in knowing Ash, who, at this point, is someone she barely knows. Furthermore, in this and the next episode, Misty seems very eager to make physical (if not courtly) contact with Ash.

*''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''
: When Misty tells [[Daisy (anime)|Daisy]] that she's back home because of Ash, Daisy thinks that Ash and Misty are a couple, which cause Misty to blush.

*''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''
:In this episode, when Ash and Brock fall in love with [[Giselle]], Misty gets mad. Some say that she was jealous because of Ash, but others say that was because of Brock.

*''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]''
:In the episode, when Misty thought that Ash had died, she is driven to almost tears, but is interrupted by Ash who comes back to life and wipes her nose and blushes.

*''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]''
:In this episode, when they see the ad for the salon, Misty grabs Ash's arm.

* ''[[EP083|Poké Ball Peril]]''
: Near the end of the episode, with Brock having left Ash and Misty to travel alone, [[James]] says "I think we may have captured a pair of romantic creatures in our little cage," after which [[Jessie]] swoons and {{MTR}} blurts out, "They're lovebirds!" The idea of Ash and Misty as a couple becomes a sub-theme throughout the subsequent Orange League Season, culminating into events in the 2nd movie. Ash and Misty deny it all.

* ''[[EP093|Navel Maneuvers]]''
: [[Danny]], the [[Navel Island]] [[Gym Leader]], quickly picks up on the nature of Ash and Misty's relationship during one of their arguments and says, "I can see the two of you are pretty close." After Misty asks what he meant by that, he replied, "What's that saying? 'You always hurt the one you love'..."

* ''[[EP100|Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon]]''
: After the Nidoran kiss and evolve, [[Tracey Sketchit|Tracey]] comments about whether the battle or the kiss made them evolve. The idea of kissing embarrasses Misty and provokes Ash to ask the question, "Do people change when they get kissed?" after which Misty answers to him, "Guess we'll have to find out ourselves..." Earlier in the episode, Tracey compared the interaction between the Nidoran's trainers to the relationship between Misty and Ash (although both vehemently deny it).

*''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon!]]''
: Misty yells, "BE CAREFUL ASH!" before he goes to save the Magnemite. Misty has done this on many occasions.

* ''[[EP103|Misty Meets Her Match]]''
: This entire episode alone serves as conclusive evidence that Misty not only likes Ash but possibly has developed a case of young love for him. [[Rudy]], the [[Trovita Island]] Gym Leader, has a case of "love at first sight" with Misty after she saves his sister Mahri. After several advances from Rudy, Misty agrees to what is essentially an impromptu date with Rudy, leaving Ash and Tracey to themselves.

: According to accounts of the original Japanese version, during the dance after the date, Rudy not only asked Misty to stay on the island, but to marry him. What is significant here is that Misty was actually considering his proposal, evidenced by the fact that she didn't refuse him outright. Throughout Ash's gym battle with Rudy, Misty is clearly torn between deciding which boy meant more to her, finally rooting for Ash in the end as {{AP|Squirtle}} is hit by a {{m|Thunderbolt}} from Rudy's {{p|Starmie}}. Rudy, in shock mutters, "She wants him."

:The fact that Ash started losing during this battle is probably because of his stress of Rudy liking Misty, but is then inspired by Misty's advice.

*''[[EP110|The Stun Spore Detour]]''
:Every time that Tracey and Ash need attention Misty comes to Ash first or expresses more concern for Ash.

[[Image:Pokemon_Movie_2_-_Lugia_Bakutan_5.jpg‎|right|thumb|240px|Misty's jealous expression]]
* ''[[The Power of One]]''
: P2K, otherwise known as 'The Power of One', or 'Revelation Lugia' is the conclusion to everything related to Misty's love for Ash in the Orange Season. In this movie, Misty gets competition in the form of Melody, the Festival Maiden of the Legend Ceremony. Melody, upon greeting our heroes, immediately comes up to Ash and plants a kiss on his cheek, provoking a glare of jealousy from Misty. Also, after Melody's performance at the festival party, she quickly kneels in front of Ash and grabs hold of his arm, provoking Misty to gasp and growl again in subdued jealousy.

: Also, upon being called Ash's girlfriend, Misty blushes uncontrollably.

: Near the end, Misty openly admits to Melody that Ash is "her burden" and goes off to rescue him in Melody's place, stating that he'll never be alone as he'll always have her, which Melody respects (due to the constant debating between her and Misty of Misty liking Ash throughout the movie).

*''[[EP124|Snubbull Snobbery]]''
:Misty finds a star map, and Ash says, "I know where the stars are, Misty." Misty giggles and blushes after that remark.

*''[[EP170|A Better Pill To Swallow]]''
:When [[Old Man Shuckle]] gives Ash his medicine and the medicine explodes in Ash's stomach, Misty asks Old Man Shuckle what he gave Ash. He reveals that it was Pokémon medicine, and Misty gets really angry. She calms once Ash wakes up and says, "You know what? My stomach-ache is all gone!"

* ''[[EP185|The Light Fantastic]]''
: When Misty introduces Ash to [[Nurse Joy]], Joy quickly exclaims, "What a little cutie!" referring to {{AP|Pikachu}} on Ash's head. But Misty and [[Brock]] mistakenly think she's referring to Ash. Brock is left completely shocked, but Misty not only gets shocked, but quickly develops the same jealous expression she displayed when Melody flirted with Ash.

* "[[EP188|Spring Fever]]"
:On this and many other occasions in the series, when Ash falls into Team Rocket's trap Misty (off camera) runs toward Ash and passionately grabs his arm to get him back to safety.

* ''[[EP198|The Heartbreak of Brock]]''
: After [[Temacu]] expresses her thoughts about marriage to Brock, Misty says to Ash, "Someday, we'll be married too." And Ash nods his head without realizing what she had just said. She could have easily meant that they would be married someday to different people, not necessarily to each other. However, that's a dub edit. In the original, Misty said "Looks like she fell for Takeshi (Brock) in first sight."

: While giving a pep talk to Brock about pursuing a possible relationship with Temacu, Misty says, "Take it from me, it's a lot easier to like someone who likes you than to like someone who doesn't." Brock then asks her "How do you know?", after which Misty gasps, blushes, then coyly replies "Well that's...what I've heard..." She is not referring to Brock (much to the dismay of [[Gymshipping|GymShippers]]) since she is openly encouraging Brock to pursue Temacu.

* ''[[EP267|Love, Pokémon Style]]''
: When [[Macey|Macy]] first invites Ash out to lunch, Misty quickly cuts in between the two and comments that Ash is "booked". Later in the same scene, Macy question's Misty's right to interrupt in Ash's personal affairs when she's not his girlfriend. Misty looks quite unimpressed as Macy continues to flirt with Ash.

* ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]''
''Editor's note: This episode is currently under debate on the merits of some scenes. Therefore this episode's entry should be considered incomplete.''
: The departure of Misty from the group is a very emotional affair. After all is said and done, Misty says to herself, "Well, Ash Ketchum, finally, I know how you feel about me".
:In this episode, Misty gives Ash her handkerchief. Apparently, in Japan that means that a girl cares for a boy. 
:Misty got her own good-bye song (which completely left Brock out). Ash was pretty clueless about how upset Misty was when they found out she had to leave, but when they actually parted, he did say that she’s his best friend, and cried when they left.

*''[[Pokemon Heroes]]''
: When [[Bianca]]/{{p|Latias}} kissed Ash on the dock, Misty was so shocked that not only did she develop the same jealous expression seen in the series, but she also dropped her [[Misty's Togepi|Togepi]].

* ''[[H011|A Date With Delcatty]]''
: In the original version, Misty initially rejects Georgio because there is "someone else". Taking into account of Misty's evident feelings in the series prior to this episode, it is inferred that Misty was making a reference to Ash.

* ''Pokémon Live''
: In this show, Misty yearns to tell her feelings for Ash, but is too afraid to tell him.

====Various songs====
* ''[[Misty's Song]]'' is a song from the 2BA MASTER Soundtrack in which Misty sings that she loves Ash. She also says that she wants confess her love to Ash, this one of the strongest pieces of evidence for PokeShipping, though the canonicity of the track is unclear (there's nothing to specifically contradict it, but the song has never been used in the anime). It was written by Ken Cummings and directed by John Loeffler for the 2BA MASTER Soundtrack.
**Ash does not have a song for Misty.
* On the ''[[Pokémon Christmas Bash]]'' CD there are two songs that show strong evidence of her feelings towards Ash.
**The first song on the CD entitled ''Pokémon Christmas Bash'' has the three main characters along with Team Rocket singing about what they want for Christmas. In Misty's stanza she sings " Hey Santa if you're really listenin' My wishlist has only one thing, Just gimme one dance with Ash, At the Pokémon Christmas bash!".
**Another song on the CD called ''[[Under the Mistletoe]]'' has Misty singing about how she wants Ash to know her feeling for him and about how she wants to meet Ash under the mistletoe. On the other hand, Ash is singing about how he hopes to not to be caught under the mistletoe, although at first he doesn't move away- many fans claim this is shipping from Ash's side. Near the song's end, after leaving Ash feeling paranoid about the mistletoe, Misty has got Ash under the mistletoe. Ash realizes this, freaks out, and runs off to eat more cookies while leaving Misty wondering what his problem is.
* [[Toi et Moi]], the Japanese ending song of [[The Power of One]], references PokéShipping several times, all from Misty's perspective; in particular, the reference to saving the one she loves from drowning (as in the movie.)

===Ash's===
Even PokéShippers will admit that Ash has not shown any overt proof of liking Misty. This reality often provokes shippers opposed to PokéShipping (especially PalletShippers) to question Ash's sexual orientation as well. However, what Pokéshippers believe is that Ash is capable of liking Misty, and furthermore, that Ash is undeniably heterosexual. This list combines evidence of both those facts.

* ''[[EP020|Ghost of Maiden's Peak]]'':
: Ash does a double take when Misty appears with her hair down and dressed in a formal kimono. Upon seeing her, the camera switches to his perspective, the bubbly background usually associated with passionate moments is used, romantic harp strings are played, and Misty's surprised facial expression clearly shows she is being looked at with interest. Also, the entire theme of the episode was romance-oriented, so it's only logical to assume this scene between Ash and Misty is as well.

*''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]''
: When Misty goes missing, Ash expresses extreme concern.

* ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]''
: Ash, thinking Misty is entering the Princess Festival Contest to take a picture with the movie star host, gets a little jealous, groaning with his arms crossed, "You must really want that picture with Fiorello...". Surprisingly, Misty reassures him she's only doing it for the doll set. Ash, whether he's aware of it or not, feels threatened by the presence of another male in Misty's life.

* ''[[EP093|Navel Maneuvers]]''
: Climbing Navel Island's central mountain, Misty tells Danny the gym leader to be extra careful. Seeing how much concern Misty is giving to Danny, Ash with the same jealous expression yells, "What's she so worried about him for?!". He's distracted so much by Misty's little crush on Danny that he loses his concentration and falls down the mountain a bit. Much like his behavior in "Princess vs. Princess", another male getting Misty's attention seems to bother him.

*''[[EP101|Get Along Little Pokémon]]''
:As the rain storm approaches and as Misty is unable to walk, Ash grabs Misty by the hand, arm and the rest of her body and leads her caressingly towards the cave. Afterwords, he stares at her with care in his eyes.

*''[[EP132|For Crying Out Loud]]''
:When Misty, Pikachu, and [[Wilhemina]]'s Marill are lost on an island and the others go to find them, Ash mutters, "Don't worry, we'll find Misty," not even mentioning Marill or his beloved Pikachu.

* ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''
: On the last day of the comet's showing, Max is disappointed that he will have to part with Jirachi. Ash sits down with him by the river and reassures him that Jirachi will always will be in his heart. Ash tells him, "I had a really good friend, and I miss her every day." Many people would think this would be Misty. However this is in the dub only and can be argued. In the original, he only implies that he had many friends he needed to say goodbye to, not particularly a ''her''. In the Spanish language version, {{Ash}} says, "Sabes, yo extraño mucho a mi mejor amiga." It means ''I really miss my best friend''. He could very well be referring to Misty.

* ''[[DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This]]''
: In this episode when Ash and the others are fishing Ash uses the special lure Misty made for him, and when Dawn asked if she could use it Ash refused causing them both to argue, but while they were distracted a {{AP|Buizel}} came and took their lure's causing Ash to get panicked and with all his determination he planned to get the lure back, once it was returned he seemed very happy and relieved.

==Other hints==
For those already convinced about PokéShipping, there do exist events which suggest inconclusively, something along the lines of romance. But the difference between hints and proofs are that proofs are essentially ironclad and undebatable in contemporary debate, whereas hints are quite debatable, and are open to interpretation. The following is a listing of some that are considered to be debatable hints, all of which vary in strength and worth.

* ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]''
: Misty is surprisingly eager to start a Pokémon-sharing relationship with Ash in this episode and gets very upset when Ash refuses. Later, while Ash is charging up Pikachu's electric sacs, Misty again offers help to Ash and gets snubbed. She then grumbles and says, "What do I care..." and runs off. Misty somewhat admits by her behavior and dialogue that she's really interested in getting to know him better.

* ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''
: Misty, at the beginning of this episode, continually keeps mentioning how "romantic" the surroundings are. She continues to do this not only in this episode, but subsequent episodes as well.

* ''[[EP007|The Waterflowers of Cerulean City]]''
: At the outskirts of [[Cerulean City]], Misty attempts to dissuade Ash from going into the city by tempting him to go to [[Vermilion City]]. She does so by mentioning the "neat Pokémon, the yachts pulling into the harbor, and a spot way up on a hill where you can sit and watch a romantic sunset". The mentioning of a romantic scene subtly suggests what she might have intended for all along, especially with how many times she's talked about romantic things in previous episodes.

* ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown!]]''
: After Nurse Joy breaks up an argument between the two of them, she comments that they say when two people fight, they really care about each other; although Ash and Misty instantly reject the idea, they are both blushing slightly when they turn away from the other.

[[Image:Ash_lifting_Misty.png‎|thumb|right|Ash's ghost lifting Misty up in the air in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]'']]
* ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]''
: When Ash enters the tower alone to try and catch a Ghost Pokémon, and is subsequently briefly separated from his body, Misty is the first one of her and Brock to express concern about how long Ash and Pikachu are taking inside. When Ash hovers beside her in his ghost form and lifts her in the air, Misty is the only one who can hear him despite Brock standing only a foot or so away from her, potentially hinting at a closer bond between the two. Also, before Ash and Pikachu return to their bodies, Misty is visibly near to tears as she pleads for Ash to wake up, and blushes immensely when he wakes up and greets her.

* ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]''
: Misty, unaware that Ash is disguised as a girl among the crowd and using the same girlish demeanor she used in "Ash Catches A Pokémon", dreamily admits to the group, "I wish Ash would've heard that story..." She openly is expressing a desire for Ash's presence.

: Also, during Ash's gym battle with [[Erika]], the girls in the crowd start acknowledging Ash's skill and how much more impressive he is than he looks, provoking Misty to smile with reassurance.

* [[EP035]]
: At the beginning of this episode, Ash is marching and singing. Misty is right behind him and longingly stares at him until they reach the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] warden's house. After Ash sings out his last lines, Misty imitates his enthusiasm and sings her own lines as well. Of course, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."

: Also, later in the episode, when Ash is about to dive in the water to grab the bomb that Team Rocket threw in there, Misty stops him, and says that it is too dangerous. Although this hint is under debate simply because it could be merely her worrying for Ash, ( as a friend would do ), she also sends down her Starmie to save Ash after he is down there for too long. And afterward, when he comes back up, Misty smiles and is thrilled that he is alive, with a blush apparent.

* ''[[EP043|March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''
: Misty goes into perhaps the most extreme fits of blushing in the history of the series, all provoked by a simple compliment from Ash about her skimpy stage outfit. No one blushes like that out of mere embarrassment. She clearly holds Ash's opinion of her in exclusive priority.

* ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]''
: As Jigglypuff begins singing in the woods, Ash and Brock are standing next to each other while Pikachu and Misty are sitting a couple feet away. After Jigglypuff is done singing, Brock and Pikachu are sprawled out asleep by themselves while Misty and Ash are slumped against each other. It might not have meant anything if the two were already standing by each other, in which case it would have just been convenient, but they weren't. Either they moved into this position because they are very comfortable with each other, or the director(s) might have just thrown this in to plant an idea. It is also interesting to note that when they wake up, Misty comments, "What a nice nap."

* ''[[EP061|The Misty Mermaid]]''
: At the end of this episode, Ash tells Misty how amazing she was at her performance of the underwater play. Misty disproportionately calls Ash's comments "sweet talk" and reminds him of the bike he owes her, something she supposedly forgot about back on [[Cinnabar Island]].

* ''[[EP068|Make Room for Gloom]]''
: Upon arriving at the Xanadu Nursery, Brock spies on a pretty girl behind the window, after which Ash comes to look and says he doesn't see a pretty girl. Misty then says, "Just turn around" and giggles, clearly addressing Ash. Ash then jokes about her hallucinating, then starts chuckling.

: Ash, finally spotting a {{p|Gloom}} behind the window, asks Brock if "he's getting 'misty' over a gloom," This causes Misty to pull Ash's mouth wide with her fingers and ask him what is he saying about her, mistaking Ash's 'misty' comment with herself. Both seem to be blushing in the midst of their playfulness.

* ''[[EP077|Fourth Round Rumble]]''
: While watching Ash's match on the grass field in the spectator stands with Brock, Misty becomes particularly vocal whenever Brock shows signs of attraction for Ash's current opponent [[Jeanette Fisher]], yelling at Brock to remember whose side he is meant to be on. She also feels sorry for Ash when his mother and Professor Oak show up to tell him that all of Pallet Town is now rooting for him, recognising the increased pressure this will put Ash under.

* ''[[EP155|Forest Grumps]]''
: At the beginning of the episode, Ash and Misty are surprisingly close to one another while tending to their Pokémon. Brock on the other hand is away from them asleep behind a tree.

: Upon reunion, Ash and Misty exclaim each other's names in joy while the camera focuses on their faces. What's interesting to note is how the scripting and animation seem to focus just on their reunion alone.

* ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]''
: When Ash finally arrives home after his travels in Hoenn, he finds Misty at his house. She makes a point of being there, specifically so that she could see Ash as soon as he arrived back from Hoenn even though she apparently has no idea how soon exactly he would be returning. For all she knew, she could have been expecting a wait spanning multiple weeks.
: Azurill is a good excuse to go down there but it does not explain her behavior:
::Why did she stay at Ash's mother's house, and not at Oak's laboratory?
::Why was she waiting at Ash's mother's house for days and days for Ash's arrival, especially given that they didn't know exactly how long Ash would take to return?
::Why was she so concerned about getting to see Ash as soon as he arrived?
::How can her somewhat wistfully delivered line of how Ash is the same as always be explained?
::Why couldn't she have simply delayed her trip down there until Ash had already arrived?

* ''[[Under the Mistletoe]]''
: This song includes hints from both. Ash sings about that he is happy tonight and Misty sings about she knows she will meet her true mistletoe. Later during this song, Misty comments that she and Ash stand under the mistletoe. Also, both sing they want to tell something to [[Santa Claus|St. Nicholas]].

*Misty constantly yelled at and insulted Ash through out the show, and is an example of the hiding of feelings for children of that age, however depending on how much older they have gotten since they had met, this may or may not be a very big clue.

*Every time that Ash has a near-death-experience or Misty thinks that Ash is dead, she expresses extreme sorrow, almost to the extent of sobbing.

==Alternate names==
PokéShipping, as with many of the more popular Ships, is known by a variety of different names. Following the emergence of PokéShipping from amongst these as the de-facto standard, the other names have become associated with certain groups within the PokéShipping fandom, or certain methods of shipping. A prominent few are detailed below.

* '''GakiShipping''' - An early term coined around the same time as TwerpShipping, the name was originally meant to be descriptive of both Ash & Misty being ''gakis'' (Gaki being a somewhat rude way to refer to a child in Japanese), but has since evolved to describe the actual shipper, and is now used only in an insulting manner towards shippers (not necessarily just PokéShippers) who use flimsy evidence to support their position, or otherwise act childish, especially when referring to their supported 'ships.

* '''SatoKasu''' - The original (Japanese) term for the ship, using the standard Japanese naming method of combining the first 2 characters from each characters name, starting with the dominant character.

* '''SakaShipping''' - Another early name for the pairing, from '''Sa'''toshi and '''Ka'''sumi.

* '''BikeShipping''' - this name refers to Ash and Pikachu breaking Misty's bike, and is among the least used of all names for this pairing.

* '''SushiShipping''' - from Ka'''su'''mi and Sato'''shi'''. Combining portions of the characters' names to form words was common early on, but now is hardly ever used.

* '''TwerpShipping''' - The original (English) name for the ship, the term is currently used primarily only amongst users on TRHQ, and by those who primarily associate themselves with {{s|RocketShipping}}.

* '''AAML''' - Standing for Ash And Misty Love. Also '''AAMRN''', Ash And Misty Romance Novel.

==Trivia==
* Ash and Misty are the only characters who were shown bleeding in an episode, Misty in ''[[EP041|Wake up! Snorlax!]]'' and Ash in ''[[DP053|Tears For Fears!]]''.

==Notable PokéShippers==

Hoenn Route 120

{{cleanup}}
'''Route 120''' is a north-south route located in central [[Hoenn]]. The northern terminus of the route is at the eastern edge of [[Fortree City]]. The southern end is at the western terminus of {{rt|121}}.

Like {{rt|119}}, Route 120 features variable [[weather conditions]] and excessively tall grass. The path is also home to a pair of caves, the [[Ancient Tomb]] and the [[Scorched Slab]].

==Route description==
Route 120 begins as an east-west route, carrying on the alignment of Fortree City to its west. The route, bordered by a small canyon to the south and a forest to the north, continues east, passing a trainer before reaching the first area of grass on the route. By trekking through the grass at the westernmost point of the patch, trainers can descend a flight of stairs to access a small ledge on the shore of the water inside the canyon. From this point, trainers can {{m|Surf}} across the water to reach the Scorched Slab, a partially flooded cave.

Returning to the main path of the route, Route 120 runs along the northern edge of the grass patch before turning south through the patch. [[Gabby and Ty]] are often found near the point where the route turns south. At the southern edge of the patch, [[Bird Keeper]] Robert waits to battle. Near the trainer, Route 120 curves to the west and crosses the canyon on a long bridge.

On the other side of the bridge, the route curves to the south, then to the east, as it enters a rainy, puddle-filled area of the route containing three trainers. At the easternmost point of this segment is a path leading to a [[loamy soil]] patch blocked by a {{m|Cut}}-able tree. Directly south of the third trainer, the route enters a maze of grass. Here, [[Bicycle|Bicyclists]] are forced to navigate the maze, occupied by two trainers and a [[Nugget]]. However, trainers that elect to walk can cut through the grass and head directly southeast to continue along the route. At the southern corners of the maze are a pair of ledges that regulate access to and from the maze between the two forks of Route 120 created by a small pond in the middle of the road. Heading south, trainers must hop the ledge in the southeast corner to reach the second bridge on the route south of the ledge. After crossing the structure, Route 120 comes to a three-way intersection. The northern path can be utilized by northbound travelers only, as a well-placed ledge prohibits access to this intersection from the north. Likewise, the path across the bridge is limited to southbound travelers. Heading south from the intersection, Route 120 continues.

Roughly 10 paces south of the intersection, a small set of stairs leads to the shore of the small pond. Near the stairs is [[Bug Maniac]] Brandon, who will make one of his [[Pokémon]] hold [[SilverPowder]] (and, thus, the item can be stolen using {{m|Thief}} or an equivalent move) after being defeated five times. To his south is another patch of grass off to the east of the route as well as another three-way intersection. The main path of Route 120 continues east to Route 121. The left branch leads to the Ancient Tomb.

===Ancient Tomb connector===
To the southwest of the intersection is a woman who freely gives out rare [[Berries]]. Near her is a loamy soil patch containing three {{b|Pecha}} plants. To her north is a flight of stairs leading to an upper area of the route.

In this area, there is another loamy soil patch containing four different varieties of Berries, as well as a small pond with [[Status ailment healing item#Full Heal|Full Heal]] on the opposite shore. Continuing north, however, the path trudges through a patch of grass before ascending a set of stairs leading to a plateau on the route. In the center of the plateau is the Ancient Tomb.

==Items==
*{{b|Aspear}}: loamy soil patch near the puddle-laden area
*[[Status ailment healing item#Full Heal|Full Heal]]: southern shore of the pond in the southwest corner of the route
*[[Hyper Potion]]: mixed amongst the grass near Route 121

'''The School of Hard Knocks''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンひっしょうマニュアル''' ''Pokémon Victory Manual'') is the ninth episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on May 27, 1997 and in the United States on September 18, 1998.

Ash and his friends stumble upon a school made for Pokémon trainers who would rather study than collect badges.
{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==


[[Misty]] and {{Ash}} are fighting about her broken [[bike]] again. In an effort to get them to cool off, [[Brock]] pulls a table and chairs out of his backpack, with all the necessities to set it for a nice afternoon cup of tea. Brock sends Ash to collect firewood to make tea and crepes.

As Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} wander around the forest, they encounter a group of boys in suits. One of them is running on a treadmill, while the rest gathered around quiz him about various [[Pokémon]]. He misses a question and is rejected by the other boys. Ash jumps in to defend him. The boys reveal that they are students of [[Pokémon Tech|Pokémon Technical Institute]], a boarding school which educates [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. They leave, stating they don't want to fight. As Brock reads from the school's brochure, Pikachu starts the treadmill and tries to keep up. The school trains its students without sending them to collect [[badge]]s, and guarantees entry into the [[Pokémon League]] upon graduation. Brock leans on the treadmill, speeding it up, and sending Pikachu flying. The school is expensive, and therefore populated with rich kids.

The student who was being bullied, {{ka|Joe}}, defends his "friends," who were trying to help him, he says. He says he sometimes pretends to know less than he really does because the questions get so much harder. Ash is very upset at this brutal "tutoring" system, and demands to meet the student in charge, with plans to stop it. The head student of the beginner class is a girl; Brock and Ash drool over her photo, which makes Misty even angrier.

[[Team Rocket]] reveals they both flunked out of Pokémon Tech. Being led there by Ash has brought back some bad memories for [[Jessie]] and [[James]], but {{MTR}} cheers them up.

Joe leads them to the head student [[Giselle]]'s study area. He says it's overall skill as a trainer, not any one battle, that determines success at Pokémon Tech. He says even though he's the weakest student in his class, he's still better than someone with two badges. Misty takes offense, and Joe says he's familiar with her gym; he usually beats her preferred {{t|Water}} Pokémon on the simulator. Misty demands a real battle, and Joe tells her, "You'll be sorry."

Misty calls her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}, while Joe calls a {{p|Weepinbell}}, a {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon which will have an advantage over Misty's water-type. Nevertheless, Starmie beats the Weepinbell. Giselle walks in and chastises Joe for not realizing that Starmie's real battle experience would give it an advantage. She calls him an embarrassment to the school. Brock and Ash swoon over the very pretty Giselle. Even James, looking on with Jessie from a tree outside, is taken with her. Giselle continues to upbraid Joe, and threatens to withdraw the help of the other students.

Misty challenges her, saying that a true friend wouldn't walk away from a friend in need of help, and that Giselle's beauty is only skin deep. Giselle accuses Misty of being jealous. Giselle summons a {{p|Graveler}} to challenge Misty's Starmie. Although {{t|Rock}} Pokémon are weak against water Pokémon, Giselle says hers are so advanced they can win. The Graveler smashes into the Starmie, tossing it through a window and out into the pool.

Giselle says that a Pokémon is only as good as its trainer. A weak Pokémon can still win if it's better trained. Ash jumps in, saying there's more to training Pokémon than levels. He says he has two badges, and Giselle says he's still a beginner. When he reveals that he's been on his quest for 2 months, she is shocked that he has not yet trained his Pikachu into a [[Poké Ball]], and snidely remarks, "Maybe your Pokémon are training you!"

Ash says his three Pokémon are his friends. Giselle is surprised that he has only three; most beginners have six. She attributes his two badges to luck. She is surprised he chose Pikachu as his starting Pokémon, as they are known to be hard to handle. She is amazed at Ash having two badges, given how little he knows, and laughs at him. Pikachu is angry, too, and Ash demands a battle. Giselle summons {{p|Cubone}}. Ash calls for a {{m2|ThunderShock|shock}} attack, but Cubone deflects it, to his dismay. Giselle calls for a {{m|Leer}} attack, but Pikachu responds by making funny faces at Cubone. The two Pokémon get into a close-range staring contest, until Giselle calls for a {{m|Bone Club}} attack; the bonk on the head staggers Pikachu. She then calls for a {{m|Bonemerang}}, which knocks Pikachu out cold. He comes to, and the next time the Bonemerang is launched, Pikachu jumps over it, and twists the skull backwards on Cubone's head, so he can no longer see. Pikachu pummels the Cubone, then ducks away as the Bonemerang comes back to take out its master. Giselle is amazed that Pikachu has won without using electricity. She is stunned that she has lost.

Team Rocket takes advantage of everyone's distraction to appear with their motto. The Tech students, recognizing them as bad guys who flunked out, attack Team Rocket ''en masse'', causing them to flee.

Joe decides to leave Pokémon Tech and return home to start over like Ash did. Joe asks if he can keep her picture; she says she has one of him, because they are now friends. Perhaps one day they'll meet in the Pokémon League.

Ash wants to know why he and Misty aren't friends like that; she says it's because Joe doesn't owe Giselle a bike!

== Trivia ==

* This episode is the only time in which Brock falls for a girl that's younger than himself and Ash falls for a girl at all.
* This is the one of the few episodes where [[Rachael Lillis]] provided the voice of {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* This episode is the last in which [[Ted Lewis]] plays the voice of [[James]].
* This episode's dub title is a reference to the saying, "School of Hard Knocks."
* The scenes where Pikachu battles Cubone are used in first Pokémon opening in {{wp|South Korea}}.

=== Errors ===

* When Giselle is telling Ash how Pikachu should be kept in a Poké Ball, there is a close up of Pikachu; during this, Pikachu says its name, but its mouth does not move.

=== Dub edits ===

* Right before the title screen appears, Misty hits Brock in the head with a log. This was cut from the dub because of the direct violence controversy that started with [[EP001]].
**Also in that same scene, Brock mistakenly said "To be continued" instead of saying to see the episode (thus explaining why Misty hit Brock with a log later).
* This episode contains many paint edits:
** When talking about tea, Brock pulls out a wooden cup that says "Rizaadon Haku Richuu". In the dub, it is a can with pictograms. Ash is later seen drinking from the cup unedited.
** Similar to the above edit, Brock's bottle of "Mt. Moon Spring Water" had a picture of a mountain painted over the Japanese text.
** Misty's note about the Pokémon Seminar was originally full of Japanese text. In the dub, it has a black-and-white picture of the school at the top of the paper and some blurred-out text on the bottom.
** Joe's picture of Giselle had a note from her in the upper-right hand corner. This was erased in the dub.
** The sign at the top of the door after the commercial break says "Training Room". The dub replaces the text with five [[Poké Ball]]s which light up.
** In the Japanese version, the simulation states the move used on the lower-left hand corner. (In this case, {{m|Razor Leaf}}.) The dub adds another health bar over it.
** However, the kanji on one student's book is left unedited.
* Computer effects were added in the dubbed version, specifically into the scene where Joe was showing them the virtual training center.
* Giselle mentions the infamous "things you can't learn in school" line in the dub only.

'''Five Isle Meadow''' is a short route just outside of [[Five Island (town)|Five Island]] City, which holds [[Team Rocket]]'s last base in FireRed and LeafGreen, and is the place where the player gets the [[List of key items in Generation III#Sapphire|Sapphire]] after it is stolen by a scientist at the [[Dotted Hole]].

==Route description==
Within Five Isle Meadow, there is a large building: Team Rocket's Sevii Island stronghold. These Rockets are the last ones players face, as they didn't recieve news of Giovanni's disbanding of Team Rocket. By the way they act, this group seems to be predecessors to the Team Rocket that returned in [[Generation II]] to terrorize [[Johto]].

The route starts on the coast of Five Island City, going onto a grassy path around a patch of trees, which then turns southward and leads the player to the southmost point on Chrono Island. From there, they can either turn northward and approach the [[Rocket Warehouse]], or go east to [[Memorial Pillar]].

The first thing veteran players may notice about this route is that like the city next to it, it uses music first found in [[Johto]], on Routes {{rtn|42}}, {{rtn|43}}, {{rtn|44}}, and the [[Lake of Rage]].

==Trivia==
*Although its appearance suggests that it is sluggish, its highest [[stat]] is actually its speed.

===Origin===
Purugly is based on a wild {{wp|Little Spotted Cat|tiger cat}}, though its appearance is closer to an overweight {{wp|tabby|tabby cat}}.
====Name origin====
Its English name comes from the words "purr" and "ugly". Its Japanese name may be derived from a combination of デブ ''debu'', fat, にゃ ''nya'', meow, and the English word "cat". Although considering the English name is Purugly, it is also likely the "bu" in Bunyatto comes from the word ''busaiku'' (不細工), which means "ugly".

'''Ruin Valley''' is a route in the [[Sevii Islands]]. The [[Dotted Hole]] is situated in the southern area of the route.

==Route description==

The terrain of Ruin Valley is mainly comprised of tall grass. In the centre of the valley is the [[Dotted Hole]] (containing the [[List of key items in Generation III#Sapphire|Sapphire]]), which is also surrounded by a small pool of water. There are also some bare patches of earth. This area of Fortune Island is fairly mountainous, despite there being no actual mountain there. This is probably best demonstrated by the fact that there are many hikers exploring the Ruin Valley.

==Items==
*{{evostone|Sun Stone}} (located in the southeastern corner of the valley, {{m|Strength}} is required)
*[[HP Up]] (located in the southwestern corner of the valley, {{m|Strength}} is required)
*[[Full Restore]] ({{m|Strength}} is required)

'''Petalburg Woods''' (Japanese: '''トウカのもり''' ''Tōka Woods'') is a forest that connects [[Petalburg City]] to [[Rustboro City]].

In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the first time the player goes through Petalburg Woods, he or she is attacked by a member of [[Team Aqua]] or [[Team Magma]]. The member intends to steal some papers from a man in the woods. The man turns to the player for help, and he or she battles the member and his {{p|Poochyena}}. After the member is defeated, the man will thank them by giving away a [[Great Ball]].

== Trainer Tips ==
*Any Pokémon that appears even once in a battle is awarded EXP Points. To raise a weak Pokémon, put it at the left of the team list. As soon as a battle starts, switch it out. It will earn EXP. Points without being exposed to any harm.
*In addition to Hit Points (HP), Pokémon have Power Points (PP) that are used to make moves during battle. If a Pokémon runs out of PP, it must be taken to a Pokémon Center.

==Trivia==
*Although the Devon Representative is looking for a Shroomish, if a player has one in his/her party when they meet him, the Devon Representative will not react to it.

'''Memorial Pillar''' is a location southwest of the [[Sevii Islands]]. The area is mostly sea, with two segments of land, north and south of the area. The south segment serves as a grave site to an {{p|Onix}} (nicknamed Tectonix) that was loved immensely by its trainer. The north segment is a small island with three trainers and patches of grass.

==Route description==
===Northern segment===
The north portion of Memorial Pillar is a long strip of land with patches of [[tall grass]]. There are three trainers waiting for battle here, and three hidden [[berry|berries]] on the ground. There are patches of sandy beaches on the shore of the small island, that leads up to the hilly grass land.

===Southern segment===
The south portion of Memorial Pillar is smaller than the other part. It serves as a grave site to an {{p|Onix}} (nicknamed Tectonix) that was loved immensely by its trainer. The actual memorial is a large tower-like pillar shaped like an Onix tail made from rock which was how the area got its name. If a player puts a [[Lemonade]], Tectonix's favorite drink, on its grave, the mourning trainer will give the player {{TM|42|Facade}} as a thank-you.

==Items==
*[[Razz Berry]] (hidden)
*[[Sitrus Berry]] (hidden)
*[[Bluk Berry]] (hidden)
*[[Metal Coat]] (Southern segment)

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

===Why I Like Pokémon===
Now you'll probably think that because I am a girl, I like pokémon because of all the cute little pokémon out there like [[Piplup]]. Well far from it! No, I am not one of those girls that fall for the power of the cute side. There is nothing cute about a fluffy little kitten to me. I am far more of a tom boy than a girl that would just do anything to cuddle a little puppy. I prefer the creatures that would be considered, er, less cuddly... Like reptiles for one example. I just love crocodiles and the now extinct dinosaurs. I also adore the mythical dragons and griffins. That said, I like pretty much all animals. There are no animals that I just hate and there aren't any least favourite animals for me. As said before in the 'About Moi' section, I do not like the anime of pokémon very much. I did used to like the older anime of pokémon. Back when the 151 original pokémon were the only pokémon in existence, the anime seemed a little less childish for me. I really think the anime has gone down hill since then. Now, I am sorry if you are an anime lover and are offended by what I am saying, but this is just my opinion on the anime. The anime always follows the same old routine, [[Ash]] and co meet a new pokémon (well, this normally happens, doesn't always), [[team rocket]] come and steal Pikachu and/or other pokémon, Pikachu thunderbolts team rocket, team rocket say they are blasting off again, Ash and co go off in search of new pokémon or to find another gym, some moral is learnt in the episode that has probably been learnt before. So I really have no interest in the anime what so ever. However, I do enjoy most of the pokémon games. Okay, now I have to admit that many pokémon games are repetitive, but addictive. For me, catching pokémon, training pokémon, trading pokémon and battling pokémon is just plain fun while it lasts. I also like many of the spin-off pokémon games as well though. I liked the mystery dungeon games, although I know many didn't think they were too good due to their terrible graphics and repetitive nature. But in my opinion, what more can you expect from nintendo? The pokémon company always recycles things in their games and never have the most breathtaking of graphics either. Not that I am saying they make bad games, they must be getting somewhere after all considering pokémon is the second best selling nintendo game series falling only behind Mario. One of the things I love about the pokémon games is their replay value, at least for me anyway. They are some games like [[pokémon ranger]] that once I have played through, I don't want to play through again. But then there are other like the mystery dungeon games and the main series games that I will always go back to again and again... Eventually... I also like collecting the trading cards, but only collecting them, I never really play the game. But I have to admit that the main reason for me loving pokémon so much is because of the pokémon themselves. I have liked pokémon ever since I was four years old, and now I am fourteen. I don't know how much longer I will love pokémon for, but I still adore it now so it may be for some time yet.

'''Sandshrew''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サンド''' ''Sand'') is a {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Sandslash}} starting at [[level]] 22.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
A Sandshrew is a ground-dwelling rodent notable for its defensive capabilities. Its body is mostly covered in a dry, tough hide which is colored to blend in with the sands of the desert. It can curl into a tight ball about the same size as a [[wp:Basketball#Equipment|basketball]] to protect its soft underbelly. Its primary weapon is the small but sharp claws on its paws, which are also useful for burrowing and can sometimes be poisoned.
====Gender differences====
None.
===Special abilities===
Sandshrew's special abilities are extremely limited compared to other Pokémon. It has a greater control over the ground and sand than the average Pokémon, mostly derived from adaptation to its habitat.

===Behavior===
In the wild, Sandshrew are mostly defensive by nature. They spend much of their time hidden underground in their burrows and will kick up sand or curl into a ball to escape predators. They may venture out to hunt, taking advantage of the desert sands to hide themselves.

However, with the help of a [[Pokémon trainer|trainer]], a Sandshrew can become bolder and much more daring, and can even be trained to swim despite the fact that they are weakened by the water. They are still fond of curling up, though, even if not for defense.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rough-terrain Pokémon|Rough-terrain Pokémon]]]]
They are adapted to dry, arid areas. Thus, they can be commonly found in deserts and grasslands, and sometimes in river valleys or the upper levels of caves as well. Wherever they are, they live underground in burrows.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Sandshrew do not require a lot of water, due to a very efficient system of staying hydrated with minimal moisture. They hunt for prey in the wild.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Mira's Sandshrew.PNG|200px|thumb|right|[[Mira]]'s Sandshrew]]

An ailing Sandshrew is seen briefly near the beginning of ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''.

Sandshrew was first featured in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''. It was owned by a Pokémon trainer named [[A.J.]]. Despite A.J.'s seemly barbaric training methods (e.g. using a whip), it was very loyal to him.

A Sandshrew was one of the Pokémon that played Hide-n-Seek in ''[[Pikachu's PikaBoo]]''. Sandshrew hid in front of a brick wall.

[[Mira]] enlists {{Ash}} and [[Ash's friends|his friends]] to help her retrieve her Sandshrew that is lost at the bottom of an artificial lake created by a dammed river in ''[[DP047|Sandshrew's Locker!]]''.

A Sandshrew appeared in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[Professor Oak]] had a Sandshrew in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]].

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
Sandshrew makes a cameo in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'', part of the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Special)|Red, Green & Blue]] chapter, battling against {{Special|Red}}'s Bulbasaur as a [[Pewter Gym]] trainer's Pokémon.

{{Special|Red}} had a Sandshrew in [[Pokémon Special]] he uses to fight {{type2|Fire}}s.

==In the TCG==

==Trivia==
*Sandshrew is the first {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.
*Sandshrew and {{p|Sandslash}} share the same [[species]] name with {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Raticate}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, and {{p|Raichu}}. They are all known as Mouse Pokémon, though Rattata and Raticate have also been called Rat Pokémon.
* Although Sandshrew was introduced in [[Generation I]] as a pure {{type2|Ground}}, it could not learn any Ground-type attacks by level-up until [[Generation III]].
*Although Sandshrew's Pokédex Entry States that it can Bounce, Sandshrew does not learn the move {{m|Bounce}}, not even through the Platinum [[move tutor]].
===Origin===
Though its design appears to be inspired by [[wp:armadillo|armadillo]]s, its actual inspiration was the [[wp:pangolin|pangolin]], which is a scaly-anteater by another name. It curls up into a ball, has sharp claws, and lives in deserty regions.
====Name origin====
Sandshrew's name is a combination of ''sand'' and ''[[wp:shrew|shrew]]'', a small rodent-like mammal. Its Japanese name simply refers to sand.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Sandan
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Sabelette - From ''sable'' (sand) and ''belette'' (weasel).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 모래두지 ''Moraeduji''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan and Hong Kong)]]: 穿山鼠 ''Chuan Shan Shű'' - A portmanteau of 穿山甲 ''Chuan Shan Jia'' ({{wp|pangolin}}) and 鼠 (mouse). Literally means "mouse that passes through mountains".

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

===Why I Like Pokémon===
Now you'll probably think that because I am a girl, I like pokémon because of all the cute little pokémon out there like [[Piplup]]. Well far from it! No, I am not one of those girls that fall for the power of the cute side. There is nothing cute about a fluffy little kitten to me. I am far more of a tom boy than a girl that would just do anything to cuddle a little puppy. I prefer the creatures that would be considered, er, less cuddly... Like reptiles for one example. I just love crocodiles and the now extinct dinosaurs. I also adore the mythical dragons and griffins. That said, I like pretty much all animals. There are no animals that I just hate and there aren't any least favourite animals for me. As said before in the 'About Moi' section, I do not like the anime of pokémon very much. I did used to like the older anime of pokémon. Back when the 151 original pokémon were the only pokémon in existence, the anime seemed a little less childish for me. I really think the anime has gone down hill since then. Now, I am sorry if you are an anime lover and are offended by what I am saying, but this is just my opinion on the anime. The anime always follows the same old routine, [[Ash]] and co meet a new pokémon (well, this normally happens, doesn't always), [[team rocket]] come and steal Pikachu and/or other pokémon, Pikachu thunderbolts team rocket, team rocket say they are blasting off again, Ash and co go off in search of new pokémon or to find another gym, some moral is learnt in the episode that has probably been learnt before. So I really have no interest in the anime what so ever. However, I do enjoy most of the pokémon games. Okay, now I have to admit that many pokémon games are repetitive, but addictive. For me, catching pokémon, training pokémon, trading pokémon and battling pokémon is just plain fun while it lasts. I also like many of the spin-off pokémon games as well though. I liked the mystery dungeon games, although I know many didn't think they were too good due to their terrible graphics and repetitive nature. But in my opinion, what more can you expect from nintendo? The pokémon company always recycles things in their games and never have the most breathtaking of graphics either. Not that I am saying they make bad games, they must be getting somewhere after all considering pokémon is the second best selling nintendo game series falling only behind Mario. To be continued...

'''Pinkan Island''' (Japanese: '''ピンカン島''' ''Pinkan Island'') is a natural wildlife preserve in the [[Orange Archipelago]].

Its name comes from a [[Pinkan Berry|special fruit]] that grows on the island which turns [[Pokémon]] a pinkish [[alternate coloration|color]]. These pink Pokémon are highly sought after by poachers, but the island is well protected by monstrous {{m|whirlpool}}s, high cliffs and vigilant park rangers.

The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

===Why I Like Pokémon===
Now you'll probably think that because I am a girl, I like pokémon because of all the cute little pokémon out there like [[Piplup]]. Well far from it! No, I am not one of those girls that fall for the power of the cute side. There is nothing cute about a fluffy little kitten to me. I am far more of a tom boy than a girl that would just do anything to cuddle a little puppy. I perfer the creatures that would be considered, er, less cuddly... Like reptiles for one example. I just love crocodiles and the now extinct dinosaurs. I also adore the mythical dragons and griffins. To be continued...

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me.

'''Castform''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポワルン''' ''Powalen'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon whose type can change to {{T|Fire}}, {{t|Water}}, or {{t|Ice}} depending on the [[Weather conditions|current weather]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Castform is a small, grayish Pokémon that resembles a cloud. Castform appears to have a pair of white goggles; however, Castform's appearance (and type) can change depending on the weather.

In strong sunlight, Castform's lower half becomes pure white while the head turns orange with smaller orange balls surrounding it. This gives Castform's head a shape that is similar to the sun.

During rain, Castform's lower half becomes a darker shade of gray. The head is blue, resembling a drop of rain.

In hail or snowy weather, Castform's head turns purplish-blue. The rest of of the body changes into a greenish tornado.
====Gender differences====
None.
====Special abilities====
Castform has the aforementioned ability to change its form with the weather (even though it lacks forms for sandstorms and fog). Castform is capable of various {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Water}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, {{t|Electric}}- and {{type2|Grass}} moves. Castform is one of only two Pokémon that can learn {{m|Weather Ball}} (the other is {{p|Roserade}}).

}}

==Trivia==
* Castform's weather-based transformations are the same color whether or not it is {{shiny2}}.
* When Castform undergoes a weather-based transformation, the graphical interlude is the same as that of a Pokémon using the move {{m|Transform}}.
* Castform will not transform in [[Weather conditions#Fog|fog]] or during a [[Weather conditions#Sandstorm|sandstorm]].
**However, in {{g|Mystery Dungeon}}, fog transforms it into its Rain form.
* Castform's Weather Ball will always receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]], even when its form is changed, except in a sandstorm.
* Along with {{p|Cherrim}} it is the only Pokémon to date to change when the weather changes.
* For some reason, in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2 it is a body size 4 despite it being a body size 1 in the first mystery dungeon games and still being that size in the second mystery dungeon games.

==Origin==
It appears to be intended to resemble and act like a living cloud. Its ability to change shape and type depending on the weather condition makes similar to a {{wp|weather balloon}}. It's also similar both in concept and design to a {{wp|teru teru bozu}}, a Japanese charm doll used to wish for good weather.
===Name origin===
Castform's name seems to be a combination of ''forecast'', predict the weather, and ''transform'', referring to its ability to change type depending on the weather. The German and French names refer to this also. Its Japanese name may be a combination of 天気予報 ''tenkyohō'', weather forecast, and 変わる ''kawaru'', to change or transform.

==In other languages==
* [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Formeo - From ''form''.
* [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Morpheo - From ''morph''.
* [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 캐스퐁 ''Caspong''

==Trivia==
*Lickitung's shiny sprites in Generation II show it being yellow ''and'' pink, with it's tongue being partially yellow also. This was corrected in [[Generation III]].
* Lickitung was originally to be called ''Tonguetyd'' but this changed before the release of the English versions of {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
* Even though it was repeatedly stated to attack using licks, it was not able to learn {{m|Lick}} until [[Generation II]].
* Prior to Generation IV, Lickitung can learn {{m|Rollout}} by [[TM04]] during [[Generation II]], or when purified in {{Pokémon XD}} or [[move tutor|tutored]] the move in {{game|Emerald}}. In Diamond and Pearl, Lickitung [[Methods_of_evolution#Others|needs to know the move Rollout to evolve]]. Of course, it could not evolve into {{p|Lickilicky}} before this, because it had not been created yet. This makes it and {{p|Piloswine}} the only Pokémon which met their Generation IV evolution criteria in games of prior generations.
* Lickitung is the only Pokémon that evolves by learning {{m|Rollout}}; all other Pokémon which evolve after learning a move, besides {{p|Aipom}}, share that specific method of evolution with at least one other Pokémon.
*The only sprite that shows Lickitung without its tongue out is in {{game|Emerald}}, and even then, its tongue is only in its mouth in the second frame of animation.
* Its Red/Blue and FireRed Pokédex data compares Lickitung's extensible tongue to that of a {{wp|chameleon}}, a real-world lizard. Neither {{p|Charmeleon}} nor {{p|Kecleon}}, Pokémon based on the chameleon, have particularly long tongues.

===Origin===
It may have been based on any number of lizards with extending tongues, commonly the [[wp:Blue-tongued skink|blue-tongued lizard]]. It also shares traits with {{wp|anteaters}}.
====Name origin====
Lickitung's name is a combination and corruption of ''lick'' and ''tongue''. The ''bero'' in ''Beroringa'' may be derived from ベロ ''bero'', tongue, べろべろ, ''berobero'', an {{wp|onomatopoeia}} for a licking sound, or べろべろ嘗める ''beroberonameru'', to lick up with one's tongue. ''Ringer'' is most likely derived from English ''ring'', referring to the patterns on its body. It is also possible that ''ringa'' is a corruption of the English word ''lingua'', which refers to a tongue or an organ resembling a tongue [http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lingua].

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Schlurp - From ''slurp''.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Excelangue - From ''excellent'' and ''langue'' (tongue). The name as a whole sounds like ''excellent''.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 내루미 ''Naerumi''

'''Spoink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バネブー''' ''Baneboo'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Grumpig}} starting at [[level]] 32.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Spoink is a Pokémon that leads an unusually fragile existence. It possess no hind legs and locomotion is achieved by bouncing on its spring tail. However, the bouncing serves a far more vital function in that it keeps its heart beating; if it's stopped from bouncing, it'll go into cardiac arrest and die. It also wears a {{p|Clamperl}} pearl on top of its head to amplify its psychic powers. However, if it doesn't have the pearl, it begins to weaken, so Spoink is in constant danger from either ceasing to bounce or losing its pearl.

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

====Special abilities====
The pearl on Spoink's head heightens its psychic powers. It is able to constantly bounce, even while sleeping, which is imperative to its existence. This is due to the previously mentioned risk of cardiac arrest. Spoink was also one of the few Pokémon originally able to use the move {{m|Bounce}}, though this move now can be used by a decent quantity of Pokémon.

===Behavior===
Spoink are constantly on the search for a bigger pearl, which will most likely strengthen its psychic powers when it does so. Due to this factor, Spoink are known to steal round objects that it may confuse for a pearl. They seem to be kleptomaniac Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

They seem to love mushrooms that grow underground. How they manage to get at them while bouncing is unknown. However, they also seem to be sometimes found with the [[Tanga Berry]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Spoinkanime.jpg|right|thumb|[[Spoink (anime)|A Spoink]] without a pearl on its head.]]
{{an|Spoink}} first appeared in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. The Bounce Pokémon had lost its pearl and {{Ash}} and {{AP|friends}} had to help find the missing pearl. Spoink happened to be a kleptomaniac for anything round (especially round Pokémon) when it didn't have its pearl.

The same Spoink appeared again in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]'', where it loses its pearl once again. Ash and friends go searching for another pearl, but [[Team Rocket]] stole the only {{P|Clamperl}} that had one.

{{Ash}} used a Spoink in the land leg of the [[DP091]] Triathlon.

==In the manga==
[[Liza & Tate]] each own a Spoink.

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

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Spoink takes the role of the spring used to launch the [[Poké Ball]].

===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex

==Trivia==
*Despite saying that it would die if it stopped bouncing, it has been seen not bouncing many times in the anime.
*Spoink's pearl has become a darker shade of pink in the lV generation.

===Origin===
It is possible the inspiration for Spoink came from the Biblical phrase {{wp|Pearls Before Swine|"do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet."}} The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who would not appreciate the teachings. Spoink and {{p|Grumpig}} appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their mental powers. It is also possible that Spoink was a literal interpretation for a spring pig. It is obviously based off a {{wp|pig}}.

====Name origin====
Spoink's name is possibly a combination of ''{{wp|Spring (device)|spring}}'' and ''oink'', the sound a pig makes. ''Baneboo'' is probably derived from 発条 ''bane'', spring, and ぶうぶう ''būbū'', the sound of grumbling or oinking. The end of its name may also be a shortening of 豚 ''buta'', pig.

'''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン不思議のダンジョン　時の探検隊・闇の探検隊''' ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Time Expedition & Darkness Expedition'') is a special episode of the {{g|anime}}. It was first broadcast in Japan on September 9, 2007, as part of {{g|Sunday}}. It was also streamed online on September 13, 2007. It was released in America on DVD as part of a Limited Edition Pokémon Pack on August 17, 2008. The Pack contains the DVD, a {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} Onyx DS Lite, a carrying case, and a mini-poster of {{p|Grovyle}}. It has been released in the UK on DVD, free as part of a goodie bag with an event. It is also available in Woolworths stores, coming free with Mystery Dungeon 2 and Diamond and Pearl. Finally it was aired on Cartoon Network in September 1, 2008, as a part of a ''[[Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension]]'' marathon.
Unlike previous special episodes, this does not take place in any continuity of the main storyline. Instead, the plot is based on the spinoff games, the two versions of {{g|Mystery Dungeon 2}}.

{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
The special starts with a scene of {{p|Grovyle}} stealing a [[Time Gear]]. As he makes off with it, time freezes in that area.

The scene shifts to {{p|Chimchar}}, who is anxious to start an Exploration Team by joining the [[Wigglytuff Guild]]. As he walks toward the entrance, Team Razor Wind is blasted out by {{p|Wigglytuff}}'s {{m|Hyper Voice}}, and members of the Wigglytuff Guild notice Chimchar's footprints, thinking he's an intruder. This scares Chimchar into running away from the beach, where he meets an unconcious {{p|Piplup}}. After he wakes up, Piplup, claiming to be a human, is scared to find out that he has turned into a Pokémon. Chimchar thus convinces Piplup to go with him to meet Wigglytuff and start an Exploration Team, in the hopes that he'll find out what has happened to him.

They then enter the Wigglytuff Guild, and after causing a slight ruckus (the guild thought that they were intruders), they are able to talk to Wigglytuff himself. After {{p|Chatot}}, Wigglytuff's right-hand man, explains the strangeness going on in their world with the Time Gears being stolen, Piplup and Chimchar receive an Exploration Team Starter Kit as well as Rescue Team Badges, officially joining the guild as Team [[Poképals]]. That night, Piplup and Chimchar rest in the guild. When Chimchar accidentally rolls on top of Piplup, Piplup receives a vision of the future: in this case exactly what the third member of his rescue team will buy at [[Treasure Town]].

The next day, after the guild oath recital, Piplup and Chimchar receive their first rescue mission: they must go into Labyrinth Cave and retrieve a {{p|Gabite}} Scale, in order to cure a young {{p|Shinx}}'s sister's sickness. To help them on this presumably dangerous mission is guild veteran {{p|Sunflora}}. They first go to {{p|Kecleon}}'s to stock up on items, and it is there that Piplup's vision is fulfilled: Sunflora buys a [[Joy Ribbon]], [[Def. Scarf|Defense Scarf]], and [[Power Band]] for Piplup, Chimchar, and herself respectively, exactly as it happened in Piplup's vision. Team Razor Wind spots them and secretly decides that they should go retrieve the Gabite Scale, since Team Poképals is too inexperienced. Team Poképals then enters the cave, but it's not long before Chimchar gets attacked by a wild {{p|Golbat}} swarm. After Sunflora attacks them with {{m|Razor Leaf}}, she explains the usefulness of the items; the Power Band made her attack stronger, and the Defense Scarf saved Chimchar from injury. As they proceed, Piplup almost falls into a pit, but Chimchar grabs his hand and saves him. This triggers another one of Piplup's visions of the future: a stone bridge collapses into a pit. When they come to the bridge, Chimchar insists on crossing it, but Piplup remembers his vision and stops Chimchar from crossing it. The bridge then collapses, and Chimcar is thankful.

A bit deeper into the cave, they find a beat-up Team Razor Wind, who explain that they had just been challenged and defeated by Gabite when they asked for his scale. Team Poképals then heads further in to find the Gabite. When they ask and beg for his scale, he refuses and insists that they [[Pokémon battle|battle]] him for it. To which Piplup agrees.

Gabite starts by using {{m|Sand Tomb}}. Chimchar tries to use {{m|Ember}}, but the attack can't break through. Piplup then uses {{m|Bubble}}, which clears the storm. Gabite then uses {{m|Dragon Claw}} on Chimchar and Piplup, knocking them down. In response, Sunflora uses {{m|Razor Leaf}}, which due to the Power Band is very strong. She then prepares to use {{m|Petal Dance}}, but before she execute the attack, Gabite uses {{m|Attract}}, leaving Sunflora heartstruck and unable to fight. Noticing Sunflora cannot battle, Piplup uses {{m|Peck}}, to which Gabite laughs at its puny power, knocking him down again with Dragon Claw. Seeing Piplup go down, Chimcar uses {{m|Fury Swipes}} on Gabite, and while he is occupied, Piplup uses what he thinks is Bubble. Chimchar, however, comments that the attack is actually {{m|BubbleBeam}}, which Piplup learned through [[experience]] from the Joy Ribbon. Piplup then uses BubbleBeam one more time on Gabite, knocking Gabite out. Sunflora is freed from her love trance, and the team then regroups and recuperates. However, Gabite slowly gets back up. The team prepares for battle once again when Gabite tells them not to worry - he had a worthy and exciting battle with them. He then presents them with one of his scales as their reward, thus completing their mission.

Back at the guild, Shinx is overwhelmed that his sister has gotten better, and thus thanks Team Poképals with a Luxray Fang as their reward. Chatot, however swipes the fang, stating that it is a guild rule that all rewards go to Wigglytuff, to which Chimchar and Piplup are dismayed. {{p|Loudred}}, another member of the guild, then barges in and claims big news: Grovyle the Thief has stolen another Time Gear. Piplup then tells Chimchar that he would like to stay on Team Poképals, calling Chimchar his partner, in hopes that he will find out more about what has happened to him. Chimchar then excitingly approves and the two partners shake hands.

[[Image:PiplupChimchar.jpg|thumb|right|Team Poké-Pals]]
* The [[Time Gear]] {{p|Grovyle}} steals is actually the second one he steals in the game.
* The opening scenes at the beach and at the guild are very similar to the game.
** However, the part where {{p|Chimchar}}'s stone gets stolen by {{p|Koffing}} and {{p|Zubat}} is omitted.
* The visions triggered by the Dimensional Scream do not start so early in the game.
* The guild does not take items given as payment, though it does take 90% of money received.
* The Japanese Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2 website revealed a code that allows players to obtain a mission that is similar to the special, with {{p|Gabite}} being the boss of the dungeon.
* The music used in the special, like the previous special, are similar to the game.
* Sunflora does not join the player's team in the games.
* The "Morning Words of Encouragement" are said inside the guild, not out.
* Sunflora does not say "oh my gosh!" that much in the game.

==Trivia==
* Daisuke Sakaguchi also played {{ka|Ada}}'s {{p|Chatot}} in ''[[AG183|Stategy Tommorow - Comedy Tonight!]]''.
* Kiyotaka Furushima reprises his role as the {{p|Kecleon}} brothers from the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!|the previous special]].
* The episode is animated by Team Ota, which had not worked on the Pokémon anime since ''[[AG172|All That Glitters is Not Golden]]''.
* The episode is storyboarded by [[Kunihiko Yuyama]], who usually handles the movies.
* The episode has music producers, which are usually only found in the movies, both short and long.
* Most of the background music in the episode was taken from the game score, which was composed by Arata Iiyoshi and others. Unusually for the Pokémon anime, the music was not arranged by [[Miyazaki Shinji]].
* As with the previous Mystery Dungeon special, the episode ends with ''To be continued''. It is unknown if further specials in this theme will be produced.
* Oddly this special managed to appear first in parts of Europe before the United States. A similar incident happened with the [[Pokémon Chronicles]] series.
** The special aired in the US on Labor Day as part of a [[Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension]] marathon.
* [[Maddie Blaustein]] and [[Rachael Lillis]] return to voice Chatot, Sunflora, and Shinx.
* This is the only [[Pokémon anime|anime]] episode not to feature [[Ash's Pikachu|any]] {{p|Pikachu}}.

=== Errors ===
* When Chatot is explaining about why bad Pokémon kept appearing, he said the Time Gears have been broken. But the Time Gears were not broken, instead they were stolen.
* Although the Shinx sister and Gabite were supposed to be female and male, respectively, their [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]] showed them to be the opposite. Shinx's feet were not light blue and Gabite lacked a groove in his fin.

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

Easter egg

2008-12-06T15:19:08Z

Kabutops: /* Games */

'''Easter eggs''' are hidden parts of a game or software that are usually discovered by more experienced players. There have been a number of Easter eggs throughout the Pokémon franchise.

==Games==
In the {{pkmn|games}}, there are several items and locations that are considered by some to be Easter eggs. One of them is [[S.S. Anne#Rumors|the truck]] from the [[Generation I|first generation]] games. Many rumors floated around saying that it was a location where {{p|Mew}} could be found by using {{m|Strength}} on the truck. This was proven to be untrue. The rumor resurfaced in [[Generation III]] when {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} were released, but the rumor has remained false.

In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, when the player uploads a {{p|Pikachu}} from {{v2|Yellow}}, it will be voiced by ''[[Ikue Ohtani]]'' and have unique sound effects. Likewise, if a Pikachu or {{p|Raichu}} that knows {{m|Surf}} is used, it will have a unique attack animation.

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, on January 12th (Junichi Masuda Director of GameFreaks Birthday) [[Snowpoint City]] has sparkling diamond snow instead of the normal snow that floats down. Also, if the {{player}} speaks to either {{ga|Dawn}} or {{ga|Lucas}} (depending on their gender) on which it is their birthday on the [[Nintendo DS]] calendar, they will wish the player happy birthday. This only happens after the player has beaten the [[Elite Four]].

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

Easter egg

2008-12-06T13:36:50Z

Kabutops: /* Games */

'''Easter eggs''' are hidden parts of a game or software that are usually discovered by more experienced players. There have been a number of Easter eggs throughout the Pokémon franchise.

==Games==
In the {{pkmn|games}}, there are several items and locations that are considered by some to be Easter eggs. One of them is [[S.S. Anne#Rumors|the truck]] from the [[Generation I|first generation]] games. Many rumors floated around saying that it was a location where {{p|Mew}} could be found by using {{m|Strength}} on the truck. This was proven to be untrue. The rumor resurfaced in [[Generation III]] when {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} were released, but the rumor has remained false.

In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, when the player uploads a {{p|Pikachu}} from {{v2|Yellow}}, it will be voiced by ''[[Ikue Ohtani]]'' and have unique sound effects. Likewise, if a Pikachu or {{p|Raichu}} that knows {{m|Surf}} is used, it will have a unique attack animation.

In Pokémon [[Diamond and Pearl]], on January 12th (Junichi Masuda Director of GameFreaks Birthday) Snowpoint City will have sparkling diamond snow instead of the normal snow that floats down. Also, if the player speaks to either Dawn or Lucas (depending on their gender) on which it is their birthday on the nintendo DS calendar, they will wish the player happy birthday. This is only happens after the player has beaten the Elite Four.

==Trivia==
*Graveler has two pairs of arms, which was for some reason not visible in its [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red and Green]] sprite; likewise, its legs are not visible in its [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue]] sprite. Also, its second pair of arms are a little smaller than the first pair and don't seem to be used as they are always seen on its chest.
*Graveler is one of the two Pokémon having a total of four arms. The other being [[Machamp]].
*Graveler's [[Generation I]] back sprites are the only ones showing two arms instead of one in subsequent generations. The same goes to its evolved form, Golem.
===Origin===
Graveler doesn't share much in common with anything but boulders.
====Name origin====
Graveler's name is possibly derived from ''{{wp|gravel}}''. It could also be a corruption of ''groveler'', someone who bows at the feet of a superior. Its Japanese name may be a combination of ''{{wp|golem}}'' and ''stone''. Additionally, ゴロゴローン ''gorogoroon'' is the sound of rolling, a pastime of Graveler.

==In other languages==

==Trivia==
*Wingull, along with {{p|Surskit}} and {{p|Magikarp}}, is one of the few {{type2|Water}} Pokémon that cannot learn {{m|Surf}}.
*Wingull is one of fourteen Pokémon that one could collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
*Its cry sounds similar to its name.
===Origin===
Wingull appears to be derived from a {{wp|seagull}}, but the way it just floats on air currents more closely resembles the {{wp|albatross}}.
====Name origin====
Wingull's name is a combination of ''wing'' and ''{{wp|gull}}'', whereas ''Camome'' is a corruption of the Japanese word for seagull, 鴎 ''kamome'', on which Wingull is based.

==Trivia==

*When listened to closely, the cry of this Pokémon sounds like the word "endurance", which is proper, seeing as it is the Endurance Pokémon.
*Its R/S/E sprites look very much like its [[Sugimori]] artwork.

==Origin==
Shelgon is a based on a {{wp|dragon}} and a {{wp|pupa}}.
===Name origin===
Shelgon's name is a combination of ''shell'' and ''dragon''. Its Japanese name is a misspelling of 籠る ''komoru'', to seclude oneself. It is worth noting that 龍 ''ryū'', dragon, is part of the kanji for ''komoru''.

===About Moi===
I have been interested in pokémon ever since I was four years of age. When I first liked pokémon I was more into the merchandise than anything else. Back then, I also enjoyed watching the anime. I did not own many pokémon games and the only two games that I did own, pokémon gold and pokémon crystal, were not played very much. Sadly, all the memory on pokémon gold was lost two years ago due to the internal battery problem. Pokémon crystal's memory ran out early this year which is a real shame since I had some very good pokémon on there. I can now no longer play either of them, I can't even just make a new saved file since everytime I save and then reload the game, it just keeps saying 'new game' rather than a saved one. I am now hoping for Gold and Silver remakes so that I can start over again in Johto. It was about seven years ago that I last played through the entire game and about three years ago that I played the game again on the same saved file on crystal. I was very pleased with the remakes of Red and Blue as I had never played those games before. I now hope that all the rumors about a remake of gold and silver are true. I always used to like [[Ampharos]] for some reason or another and trained quite a few on pokémon gold. I ended up with a level 73 Ampharos and a level 100 Ampharos which I cloned with the cloning glitch with my friend. Now that I have lost these Ampharos due the internal battery dying, I have two new Ampharos. One is at level 80 on my pokémon emerald. The other has been trained much and is only at level 42, he is currently on [[pokemon pearl]]. When pokémon ruby and sapphire came out I was only seven or eight years of age and I had not played much of pokémon gold or crystal. By then, I still adored collecting pokémon plush dolls and toys, but was starting to lose interest in the anime. My main interest in the pokémon games started with pokémon sapphire. I started out with a female [[Treecko]] which has become one of my main pokémon in the 3rd generations games now. I still use her today and she is a level 97 [[Sceptile]] now. When I first brought sapphire, I did not understand much about how the game worked. Ruby was actually going to be my main game, but I started playing sapphire and got addicted to it and forgot about poor old ruby. I actually lost my pokémon ruby game pak about six years ago and since then I have moved home. I still have not found the game and the only thing I think of is that I left it behind at my old house. I have brought a new ruby game in which I haven beaten all the gyms, but I have not bothered much about beating the elite four. My main game in this gen is pokémon pearl mainly because everyone seems to like pokémon diamond more and, I do not mean this in any offensive way, I do not feel like being a sheep, or a [[Mareep]] as the case may be here. I recently got [[pokérus]] on pokémon pearl in august 2008. I was training my [[Charmeleon]] and was battling him agaisnt wild pokémon. I am not sure when he got the virus, but when I checked on my team at one point, I almost had I heart attack when it said pkrs at the top right corner. I could not believe it, I never thought I would get pokérus or a shiny pokémon. I never have gotten a shiny by the way, I made a 20 Shellos chain link with the poké radar once, but still no shiny. I have no way to trade through wi-fi because my cable broadband does not support it, so please don't ask me to trade a pokémon with pokérus with you. I hear you can get free wi-fi at Mcdonalds due to it being a hotspot. If I can somehow connect there, then this page will be updated to inform that I will be willing to trade one or two pokémon with pokérus. I only have two pokémon with pokérus at the moment that have pokérus and that I am willing to trade. Both are not very good, one is a level 15 or something [[Zubat]] and the other is a level 2 female [[Doduo]]. Since pokérus is very rare (though maybe not as rare as a shiny) I would like something decent if I am ever able to trade through wi-fi. I don't just want a [[Bidoof]] please, I might be willing to trade for something like a Bidoof later on if I do ever get the pokérus onto more pokémon. But for now, the virus is not on a how bunch of my pokémon. Most of my pokémon with pokérus are my legendary pokémon and a few other pokémon, mainly ones that I have hatched from eggs. If I am able to connect to wi-fi at some point, I will list the pokémon that I desire for the pokérus. I will not accept any other pokémon that is not listed unless mentioned. Anywho, let's get back to where I was... Er, now where was I? Ah, yes! Pokémon pearl, I remember now! I am currently trying to complete the pokédex on the game. I have never really bothered with completing pokédexes before, but this generation I want to give it a shot. I have so far collected around 371 of the 493 pokémon so I only have around 100 to go. My local woolworths did an event recently in which you could download [[Darkrai]]. I live in Britain and these events at woolworths across the country were to promote The Rise Of Darkrai movie which has only just recently come out where I live. I have watched the movie and found it to be okayish, but it was a little boring in some parts. I have lost all interest in the anime now. In my opinion, it is rather childish and gives pokémon its name of being 'childish' to people who dislike pokémon, but those people have probably never played the games. I still wacth the new movies that come out since I have found some of them too be rather good, but most I have wacthed are rather boring. The [[Pokémon 4ever]] movie had got to be the most boring one I've wacthed. I did find it rather interesting in some parts, but it was rather childish and boresome for me. I do not want to be offensive to anyone who likes the anime, this is just my opinion. I still hold some interest in the card game, but I perfer to collect the cards rather than actually play the game. I want to an offical trading card club a while back. I brought a deck of mine and won one game, lost one and on another one, the other person had to go so it was a draw. I did find playing the game to be somewhat fun, but I am still not that interested and have not gone back to the club since. Now back to woolworths; the event that I went to at my local woolworths was actually first ever pokémon event I've been to. I have not been to any others before because they rarely have downloadable events where I live and I normally don't hear about the events untill they're over. And when I do hear about the events before they have begun, they are too far away for me to get to. The Darkrai that I have gotten has been given pokérus and has spent most of his time in the pc box. I would like to get Mew from [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but I have not got the game because my nintendo wii can no longer connect to my new broadband. I did download [[Pokémon Snap]] a while back though when my wii could connect to the internet. I had not gotten this game before and found it to be rather good, but far too simple and short. Sadly, when I had gotten the new broadband I had also gotten Super Smash Bros. Brawl so I have never played online with that before. I did play online with Mario Kart Wii a bit though. I may get online again with my Wii again at some point, but I will need to get a new broadband with wi-fi first and that will take a while.

Slaking are the laziest of all Pokémon. They spend most of their time lying in grassy fields to eat barely doing anything; however, when threatened, they will suddenly get up and strike with great power. If the grass they've eaten around them is gone, they move to a new spot with more grass.

===Habitat===

Slaking usually eat grass that is in reach of them. Slaking also eat fruit, but they just wait until the fruits fall down from the trees instead just climbing up and picking them.

==Trivia==
*Slaking has the third highest attack of any Pokémon in any game. It is tied with {{p|Regigigas}} and is surpassed by {{p|Rampardos}} and the attack forme of {{p|Deoxys}}.
*Slaking has the highest base stat average of any non-legendary Pokémon, though its ability significantly ruins its potential.
*Although Slaking is said to slack off like {{p|Slakoth}}, it does not lose any of its added speed upon evolving from {{p|Vigoroth}} and it actually has a higher speed, but its ability makes it slack off.
*In double battles, Slaking's Truant ability can easily be nullified using {{m|Skill Swap}} or {{m|Gastro Acid}}. Several trainers in [[Pokémon Emerald]] use this power, including [[Norman]] during the player's rematches with him. Without Truant, Slaking can make full use of its impressive stats.
*Slaking's front and back sprites in Diamond and Pearl depict it picking its nose.
===Origin===
It appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|sloth}}s and some form of {{wp|ape}}. The inspiration from sloths makes it somewhat resemble a Megatherium, also known as the Giant Ground Sloth, however, it more closely resembles a gorilla.
====Name origin====
Slaking's name is a combination of ''slake'', meaning to slacken, and ''king'', and/or possibly just the word slacking. Its Japanese name is a combination of 怠ける ''namakeru'', to be idle, or 怠け者 ''namakemono'', sloth, and ''king''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Letarking
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Monaflemit - From ''monarch'' and ''{{tt|flemme|slacking off}}''.

'''Electrike''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラクライ''' ''Rakurai'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Manectric}} at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Electrike are small, green dog-like Pokémon with yellow markings. They have a small pointed tail with two spikes on the side, giving the appearance of three tails. Their most distinctive feature is their large head crest.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
The electricity found in Electrike's body is obtained from the friction that occurs when it runs at incredible speeds. It is stored in its fur, and can be released at the Pokémon's will. This allows it to use moves like {{m|Spark}} from the static electricity found in its fur, which also activates one of its abilities, {{a|Static}}.

===Behavior===
Electrike prefers movement and agility. It is affected by weather, letting out sparks whenever a storm approaches.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==

[[Image:Electrike anime.jpg|thumb|right|[[Jaco|Jaco's]] Electrike with [[Ash's Pikachu]]]]

Electrike first appeared in ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]''. After [[Wattson]] was easily defeated by [[Ash Ketchum]] during the [[Mauville Gym|Gym]] Match, Wattson needed some time alone. During this, an Electrike came to comfort the [[Mauville City]] [[Gym Leader]]. Wattson decided to keep the electrical canine as one of his own Pokémon.

Electrike also appeared in ''[[DP042|The Electrike Company!]]'' under the ownership of [[Jaco]]. Though Jaco thought that Electrike wasn't that strong and wouldn't pass a test, Ash and friends helped Electrike control its power, resulting in it evolving into a Manectric.

An Electrike appeared in [[DP088]].

==Trivia==
*Its {{shiny2}} form may be based on its evolution Manectric.
*The spikes on the back of Electrike's legs were not visible in its {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} back sprite.
*Electrike shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Jolteon}}. They are both known as Lightning Pokémon.
===Origin===
Electrike appears to be based on some kind of {{wp|canine}}. It may also based on a demon of Japanese lore, the 雷獣 ''[[wp:Raiju|raijū]]'', an elemental lightning creature that can take on the shape of various mammals.
====Name origin====
Electrike's name may be a combination of ''electric'' and ''strike''. Its Japanese name, ''Rakurai'', literally means 落雷, bolt of lightning.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Frizelbliz
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Dynavolt - Comes from ''{{wp|dynamo}}'', an electrical generator, and ''{{wp|volt}}'', the unit for electrical potential and electromotive force.

'''Manectric''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ライボルト''' ''Livolt'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Electrike}} at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Manectric is an mammal-like Pokémon that resembles a blue dog or wolf. It has a yellow mane on its head that it discharges electricity from, as well as yellow clumps of fur at the top of its hind legs and around its front two feet.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Manectric can discharge electricity from its mane to create thunderstorms and thunderclouds in the atmosphere. The sparks can often start fires. Like its pre-evolution {{p|Electrike}}, it possibly generates the electricity in its fur and mane from the friction caused when it runs. The electricity it discharges ranges from a weak shock such as {{m|Thunder Wave}} to paralyze the opponent, to a strong {{m|Thunderbolt}} to deal large amounts of damage.

===Behavior===
Manectric is an independent Pokémon; it rarely appears before humans. This may be due to the fact that it summons storm clouds upon entering a battle.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:JacoManectric.jpg|thumb|left|[[Jaco]] and his Manectric.]][[Image:Wattson's Manectric.jpg|right|thumb|[[Wattson's Manectric]]]]
{{TP|Wattson|Manectric}} was first seen under the ownership of [[Wattson]]. Ash battled his {{AP|Torkoal}} against it and lost.

Manectric made a cameo in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno!]]'' as one of [[Factory Head Noland|Noland's]] Pokémon.

An Electrike that evolves into Manectric appeared in ''[[DP042|The Electrike Company!]]''.

'''Manectric''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ライボルト''' ''Livolt'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Electrike}} at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Manectric is an mammal-like Pokémon that resembles a blue dog or wolf. It has a yellow mane on its head that it discharges electricity from, as well as yellow clumps of fur at the top of its hind legs and around its front two feet.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Manectric can discharge electricity from its mane to create thunderstorms and thunderclouds in the atmosphere. The sparks can often start fires. Like its pre-evolution {{p|Electrike}}, it possibly generates the electricity in its fur and mane from the friction caused when it runs. The electricity it discharges ranges from a weak shock such as {{m|Thunder Wave}} to paralyze the opponent, to a strong {{m|Thunderbolt}} to deal large amounts of damage.

===Behavior===
Manectric is an independent Pokémon; it rarely appears before humans. This may be due to the fact that it summons storm clouds upon entering a battle.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:JacoManectric.jpg|thumb|left|[[Jaco]] and his Manectric.]][[Image:Wattson's Manectric.jpg|right|thumb|[[Wattson's Manectric]]]]
{{TP|Wattson|Manectric}} was first seen under the ownership of [[Wattson]]. Ash battled his {{AP|Torkoal}} against it and lost.

Manectric made a cameo in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno!]]'' as one of [[Factory Head Noland|Noland's]] Pokémon.

An Electrike that evolves into Manectric appeared in ''[[DP042|The Electrike Company!]]''.

'''Minun''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マイナン''' ''Minun'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Plusle and Minun bear a remarkable resemblance to {{P|Pichu}} and {{P|Pikachu}}. They have short tails with flat minus signs on the end of them, while their cheeks and the tips of their ears are blue, and have minus signs voided in the middle.

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

====Special abilities====
Minun creates electrical pom-poms and sparks to cheer on its partners.

Minun's stats are geared towards defense whereas Plusle's stats are sweeper-oriented. Minun's Movepool is nearly identical to Plusle, except that Minun learns {{m|Charm}} and {{m|Trump Card}} and lacks {{m|Last Resort}}.

===Behavior===
Minun is a cheerful and supportive Pokémon, always cheering on comrades in battle by using the spark pouches in its cheeks. It is very compassionate towards its friends, since it is known to cry upon witnessing a friend lose a battle. They are commonly referred to as cheerleaders for these actions.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:AG038.jpg|thumb|right|Minun, along with its counterpart, {{p|Plusle}}, and [[Ash's Pikachu]]]]
Minun first appeared alongside {{p|Plusle}} in ''[[AG038|A Different Kind of Misty]]''. Both Pokémon were owned by [[Thatcher]], who is responsible for protecting a lighthouse. The same Minun and Plusle appear again in ''[[AG052|Cheer Pressure]]'', where Thatcher is training them to be cheerleaders.

[[Elijah]] used Minun and Plusle as actors in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]''. The plot of the movie was that Pikachu, Plusle and Minun were setting out to rescue Princess {{p|Kirlia}} from an evil {{p|Exploud}}.

Minun and Plusle also appear as supporting characters in the film ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', serving as the story's comic relief. The pair helps [[Tory Lund]] to overcome his fear of Pokémon.

==In the manga==
[[Sapphire (Special)|Sapphire]] befriended a Minun at the [[Abandoned Ship]]

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Excess data found on the game disc includes data for seven playable characters cut from the final roster, including Plusle and Minun as a tag team akin to the Ice Climbers. However, in the final version of the game, Minun just appears as a random trophy alongside Plusle.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Minun combines with {{p|Plusle}} to produce an electric current blocking the entrance to the Poké Mart on the [[Sapphire Field]].
* [[Pokémon Ranger]]: Minun is the partner of [[Lunick]]. After the end credits, it also feels a bond with [[Solana]].

===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex

|rubydex=Minun is more concerned about cheering on its partners than its own safety. It shorts out the electricity in its body to create brilliant showers of {{M|spark}}s to cheer on its teammates.
|sapphiredex=Minun loves to cheer on its partner in battle. It gives off {{M|spark}}s from its body while it is doing so. If its partner is in trouble, this Pokémon gives off increasing amounts of sparks.

==Trivia==
*Minun shares the same [[species]] name with its partner {{p|Plusle}}. They are both known as Cheering Pokémon.
*Plusle and Minun's colors represent [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions]] with a shiny Minun representing [[Pokémon Emerald]] by being green.
**It is also possible that Plusle and Minun's shiny colors were based off of the Super Mario Brothers, Mario[http://www.mariowiki.com/Mario] (Plusle) and Luigi[http://www.mariowiki.com/Luigi] (Minun).
*Minun is one of four Pokémon (the other being Eevee, Slowking and Dunsparce) able to learn the move Trump Card.
* Despite being based on a rodent-like creature, it is unable to breed with Pokémon from the {{egg3|Ground}}, it is exclusive to the {{egg3|Fairy}}.
===Origin===
It appears to be based on a {{wp|mouse}} or {{wp|rabbit}}.

====Name origin====
Minun's name is based on ''minus'', referring to something with a negative electrical charge.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Minun
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Negapi - Comes from ''negative'' and possibly ''pikapika'', the Japanese onomatopoeia for sparkling.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 마이농 ''Minong''

'''Roselia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ロゼリア''' ''Roselia'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Budew}} by [[happiness]] during the [[Time|daytime]], and evolves into {{p|Roserade}} by {{stone|Shiny Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Roselia seems to share physical traits with both {{p|Gardevoir}} and {{p|Jumpluff}}. However, Roselia is only directly related to {{p|Budew}} and {{p|Roserade}}.

Roselia is a small Pokémon with a light green body. Roselia has a leaf skirt and holds a rose on each of its hands. Roselia has three thorns on top of its head. Roselia are normally 12 inches tall, but on rare occasions they grow up to the size of a human child, similar to [[Drew's Roselia]].
====Gender differences====
A male Roselia has a shorter skirt than a female.

====Special abilities====
Roselia normally fire sharp thorns (either {{m|Poison Sting}} or {{m|Pin Missile}}, but the latter of the two rarely occurs) as a first offense, usually at wild Pokémon who try to steal its flowers. Roselia are also capable of launching some Powder-based moves to either inflict status problems on its foes ({{m|Sleep Powder}}, {{m|Stun Spore}}, {{m|PoisonPowder}} or {{m|Sweet Scent}}) or to heal the status problems of itself and its allies ({{m|Aromatherapy}}). Roselia are also capable of knowing {{m|Petal Dance}}. Like most Grass-type Pokémon, Roselia can take in sunlight and focus it into a {{m|SolarBeam}}.

===Behavior===
Roselia seem to be peaceful Pokémon, but can attack fiercely with powerful poisonous attacks upon sensing danger.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Roselia usually drink nutrient-rich spring water. Since Roselia is a plant-based Pokémon, it also nourishes itself through {{wp|photosynthesis}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Drew_roselia.jpg|thumb|right|[[Drew's Roselia]]]]
Roselia is the signature Pokémon of [[Drew]]. {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} was first seen under his ownership in ''[[AG033|Now'' That's ''Flower Power]]'' and has been used in many [[Pokémon Contest]]s since. It evolved at some point between ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing]]'' and ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'' while Drew was in Johto.

Victoria of the [[Winstrate Family]] owns a Roselia which she used in a battle against May in ''[[AG046|Candid Camerupt]]''.

At the end of ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era]]'', {{Ash}} challenged [[Nando]] to a Pokémon battle. Nando's Budew evolved into a {{TP|Nando|Roselia}} while battling [[Ash's Pikachu]], but Pikachu still won.

A Roselia made a cameo appearance in [[DP086]] as an entry in the [[Hearthome Collection]] contest.

==In the manga==
[[Wally]] caught a Roselia on Route 117. It's so small that Wally carries it in his pocket.

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

==Game data==
===Pokédex entries===

==Trivia==
*Roselia is the first Pokémon to receive both {{p2|Budew|a pre-evolution}} and {{p2|Roserade|an evolution}} in the same generation. Other Pokémon that received both, though not in the same generation, are {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Electabuzz}} and {{p|Magmar}}. {{p|Porygon}} recieved two evolutions. Roselia is the only one of those Pokémon that isn't from [[Generation I]].
*In 2007, employees of Nintendo of America put [[List of Nintendo event Pokémon in 2007#Seth Heracross, GTS, August 19-30, 2007|Heracross]] up on the [[Global Trade Station]] for Japanese Roselia.
*Roselia is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
*Roselia was at one time the only dual-type {{2t|Grass|Poison}} Pokémon that did not evolve into or from anything (though this changed when {{p|Budew}} and {{p|Roserade}} were introduced). It was also the only Pokémon with its specific type combination to not be from Generation I until its evolution and pre-evolution appeared.
*Roselia's Platinum sprite is its only sprite where its eyes are open.
===Origin===
Roselia are based on {{wp|rose bush}}es.
====Name origin====
Roselia's name is based on ''{{wp|rose}}'' and perhaps ''{{wp|azalea}}'', or more likely ''{{wp|buddleia}}''.

'''Gulpin''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴクリン''' ''Gokulin'') is a {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Swalot}} at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Gulpin is a round, green, blob-like Pokémon. It has a black parallelogram on its back and a yellow feather on its head. Gulpin's face consists of puckered lips and slanted eyes that are always closed. It has two stubby appendages that are the same shape as its lips.
====Gender differences====
A female Gulpin has a shorter feather than a male.

====Special abilities====
Gulpin can {{m|Swallow}} anything its own size due to the fact that Gulpin is practically all stomach. Gulpin's stomach fluids have enough {{m|acid}}ity to melt scrap iron. Some of Gulpin's status move options include {{m|Yawn}}, {{m|Amnesia}}, {{m|Curse}} and {{m|Snatch}}. Gulpin is also capable of a small handful of elemental attacks. It is one of the few Pokémon that can use {{m|Pain Split}} and {{m|Gunk Shot}}.

===Behavior===
Gulpin is known to eat in large quantities, most likely because its powerful stomach can handle anything.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

Gulpin tend to live in grassy plains. However, they sometimes migrate into cities and eat practically anything in sight.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Gulpin aren't what one would call "picky eaters". They will eat ''anything'' they can get into their mouths.

==In the anime==
[[Image:GulpinitDown.jpg|right|thumb|[[Ash's Treecko]] with a [[Giant Pokémon|giant]] Gulpin.]]
Gulpin first appeared in ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down]]''. A bunch of these were eating all the food in the town {{Ash}} and {{AP|friends}} were in.

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

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Hitting the {{p|Linoone}} on the left of the [[Ruby Field]] will make a Gulpin jump onto the table. Making three appear will activate Travel Mode.
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]: Gulpin runs the Link Shop in [[Pokémon Square]].

===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex
|type=poison

|sapphiredex=Most of Glupin's body is made up of its stomach - its heart and brain are very small in comparison. This Pokémon stomach contains special emzymes that dissolve anything.
|emeralddex=This Pokémon's stomach fluid can even digest scrap iron. In one gulp, it can swallow something that is as large as itself.
|firereddex=There is nothing its stomach can't digest. While it is digesting, vile, overpowering gases are expelled.

==Trivia==
* Gulpin is the only pure {{type2|Poison}} which predominant color is not [[List of Pokémon by color#Blue|blue]] or [[List of Pokémon by color#Purple|purple]]. Its {{shiny2}} form, however, ''is'' blue.
===Origin===
Gulpin's appearence seems to be based on the {{wp|blob fish}}, as well as being a single, giant poison gland or even a {{wp|gallbladder}}, the green sac-like organ that stores gastric acid.
====Name origin====
Gulpin's name is a shortening of ''gulping'', swallowing. Its Japanese name probably includes ごっくん ''gokkun'', the sound of gulping or swallowing.

'''Carvanha''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''キバニア''' ''Kibanha'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Dark}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Sharpedo}} at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Carvanha has a round body covered in tiny, sharp {{wp|denticle}}s which create hydrodynamic advantages by reducing turbulence when swimming, as well as provide protection against physical attacks. The top half of Carvanha's spherical body is blue, while the bottom half is red, with a yellow star-shaped emblem below its mouth. Carvanha has two yellow {{wp|dorsal fin}}s above its eyes that resemble shark fins, and a matching {{wp|Fish anatomy#fins|pelvic fin}} on its belly. Its pectoral fins are also yellow. The caudal fin is composed of two red spines with a thin yellow membrane stretched between them.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Carvanha have jaws that are powerful enough to tear through a boat hull. Its aforementioned {{a|Rough Skin}} causes contact that feels like getting scrapped by sandpaper. Carvanha is also an exceptionally fast swimmer. It is also capable of using Special-based moves like {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Dark Pulse}}, {{m|Ice Beam}}, and {{M|AncientPower}}; but Carvanha doesn't excel at those abilities.

===Behavior===
This Pokémon is a pack hunter, just like real piranhas. Swarms of this Pokémon will attack virtually anything in the water with unmatched ferocity. Without the strength of numbers, however, this Pokémon becomes cowardly and shy.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Sea Pokémon|Sea Pokémon]]]]
This Pokémon lives in warm rivers with other Carvanha and where food is plentiful.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Carvanha will eat practically any creature that they can sink their teeth into.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Carvanhanime.jpg|thumb|A school of Carvanha attack [[Ash Ketchum]]]]Carvanha first appeared in ''[[AG024|A Corphish Out of Water]]''. When {{Ash}} had to take his sick {{AP|Corphish}} to a [[Pokémon Center]], he had to cross a river that was infested with Carvanha.

Over the series, Carvanha was one of the Pokémon used by [[Team Aqua]].

A Carvanha appeared in [[DP089]].

'''Sharpedo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サメハダー''' ''Samehader'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Dark}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Carvanha}} at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Sharpedo's body is {{wp|torpedo}} shaped, much like the head and trunk section of a real shark. Its body is covered in tiny, sharp {{wp|denticle}}s which create hydrodynamic advantages by reducing turbulence when swimming, as well as cause damage to foes to that attack it physical moves. Sharpedo is colored blue with a white underbelly. The yellow star emblem it had as a Carvanha has migrated to its snout. Another star emblem is on its rear. Sharpedo has a tall {{wp|dorsal fin}} with two notches cut into it, with a {{wp|Fish anatomy#Fins|pelvic fin}} directly opposite it, and the two pectoral fins arranged so that they resemble the fins on the back of a torpedo. Sharpedo also has two gill slits directly behind each eye.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Sharpedo's abilities are the same as Carvanha's except that Sharpedo's attacks are stronger. Sharpedo can now use {{m|Poison Jab}}, {{m|Slash}}, {{m|Night Slash}} and {{m|Earthquake}}.

Since Sharpedo is a fully evolved Pokémon, it can use {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Sharpedo is a generally dreaded and distrusted Pokémon. Sharpedo moves through the sea by swimming at speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) by forcing water out of its rear. Despite its vigor, Sharpedo has relatively low stamina, and is unable to swim great distances. Its teeth are strong enough to bite through metal, and they grow back rapidly if they snap off. Sharpedo is driven by an unruly, caustic urge to attack and destroy anything that enters its domain. As a result of its temperament and its armament, just one Sharpedo can effectively tear apart an oil tanker.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Sea Pokémon|Sea Pokémon]]]]
Sharpedo live in the upper regions of the oceans.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Just like Carvanha, Sharpedo are predatory Pokémon that will prey upon any creature they can sink their teeth into.

==In the anime==
[[Image:MayMaxSharpedo.jpg|thumb|right|{{an|May}} and [[Max]] surrounded by a group of Sharpedo]]
Sharpedo's first major appearance was in ''[[AG019|Sharpedo Attack!]]''. A pod of Sharpedo attacked {{Ash}} and co, plus [[Mr. Briney]], while they were at an uncharted, crescent-shaped island. They gained the pod's trust when [[Brock]] healed their leader's injury when it came across [[Team Rocket]].

A group of Sharpedo were used by Pokémon Hunter [[J]]'s [[J's henchmen|henchmen]] to attack Ash and co, along with [[Kellyn]], in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.

{{an|Dawn}} can be seen riding on a Sharpedo in [[DP091]].

==Trivia==
*On April Fool's Day, 2002, Mizuado, a {{2t|Steel|Water}} hammerhead shark Pokémon was "revealed", but it turned out to be a [[Fake Pokémon|fake]]. This Pokémon was also sometimes called Samehadaa, which is similar to Sharpedo's Japanese name.
*Sharpedo could not learn any {{type2|Water}} moves by leveling up in [[Generation III]], and in [[Generation IV]], it only learns {{m|Aqua Jet}}.
*Sharpedo has the same star-shaped mark as a {{p|Garchomp}}.
===Origin===
Sharpedo is based on a {{wp|shark}} with the body of a {{wp|torpedo}}. It also looks like a shark that has been cut in half.
====Name origin====
Sharpedo's name is a combination of the words ''shark'' and ''torpedo''. The first part of its name may also be derived from ''sharp'', referencing its fins and Rough Skin ability. ''Samehader'' may be a corruption of 鮫肌 ''samehada'', fishskin, perhaps referring to its {{a|Rough Skin}} ability. In addition, its name may be a combination of 鮫 ''same'', shark, and 肌荒れ ''hada-are'', rough skin. Samehada may also reference a creature from Japanese mythology of the same name. Samehada, in the myth, was the partner to the three-tailed demon shark Isonade.

'''Wailmer''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ホエルコ''' ''Hoeruko'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Wailmer resembles a large spherical whale with no tail. It has a dark blue topside and a tan underbelly with groves. It has two fins that have finger-like appendages, baleen plates that resemble teeth and blowholes on the tops of their heads.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Wailmer can fill itself with water and turn itself into a bouncy ball. The more water it sucks in, the bouncier it becomes.

===Behavior===
They usually frolic in the ocean waves, breaching and eating. They are known to be very playful Pokémon.

===Habitat===
They live in the ocean, but occasionally can bounce onto the shoreline.
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Sea Pokémon|Sea Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
They eat over a ton of food a day, which they filter with their baleen plates.
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==

Wailmer first appearance was a cameo in ''[[Pikachu's PikaBoo]]''.

[[Ross]] used a Wailmer for a Pokémon Water-Race in ''[[Pokémon Heroes]]''. Ross and Wailmer came in second while [[Misty]] and her {{TP|Misty|Corsola}} came in first.

Wailmer made a cameo in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate]]'' for [[Juan]]'s [[Sootopolis City]] performance.

A Wailmer was befriended by [[Robin]], a man who was living on an uncharted island, in ''[[AG124|Island Time]]''. The Ball Whale Pokémon evolved into a Wailord in order to transport Robin and {{Ash}} and co. to a ship heading to [[Ever Grande City]], though Robin later decided that he wanted to go back to the island.

A Wailmer appeared in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', taking part in the Wallace Cup.

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

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Hitting the ball into Wailmer's mouth will activate Catch 'Em Mode on the [[Sapphire Field]].

*[[Pokémon Channel]]: On the beach, you can fish for Pokémon with the fishing rod and bait provided. Wailmer is uncommon, but if you reel Wailmer to the shore, you can see the tremendous size difference between Wailmer and Pikachu.

==Trivia==
*Wailmer, along with {{p|Azurill}} and {{p|Kecleon}}, was one of the first {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} revealed.

===Origin===
Wailmer is based on a {{wp|whale}} with aspects of a beach ball, similarly to {{P|Azumarill}}
====Name origin====
Wailmer's name is based on ''whale''. ''Wail'' may also refer to the sounds this Pokémon may create or refer to that whales sing or in this case, wail. Its Japanese name is literally 吠える子, bellowing child, but ''hoeru'' is similar in sound to the English word ''whale'', making the meaning of its name ''whale child''. ''Mer'' may come from the French word for ''sea''.

'''Wailord''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ホエルオー''' ''Whaloh'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Wailmer}} at [[level]] 40.

At 47 feet, 7 inches (14.5 meters), Wailord is the largest Pokémon of all.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Wailord are cetacean Pokémon that are well known as the largest Pokémon discovered so far. They have small beady eyes, a huge mouth and a throat that is lined with grooves. It has two pairs of fins along its side and a horizontal tail at the back. It's vaguely shaped like a torpedo or a blimp.

Despite its enormous size, it is able to breed with many land-based Pokémon that are much smaller. This is due to it being in the {{egg3|Ground}}, a reference to how whales are classified as mammals.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Wailord are able to take in large amounts of air and dive to incredible depths with just one massive breath. Since it is based on a whale and has a blowhole, it is one of the few Pokémon that are able to use {{m|Water Spout}}. With their large mouths, they are able to eat extreme quantities of food.

===Behavior===
Wailord are known to live in large packs for traveling as well as finding prey.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Sea Pokémon|Sea Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==

Wailord first appeared in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]''. The Float Whale Pokémon was stuck on a beach near a [[Pokémon Center]]. [[Team Rocket]] tried to haul it away, but a {{p|Combusken}} foiled their plans.

A Wailmer that befriended a man named [[Robin]] evolved into a Wailord in ''[[AG124|Island Time]]''. This Wailord transported {{Ash}} and {{AP|friends}} across the ocean until they came across a ship heading for [[Ever Grande City]].

Along with their pre-evolved form, Wailord appeared in [[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]].

==In the manga==
At sea, {{Special|Sapphire}} from the Hoenn series travels on a Wailord named Wailulu.

==Trivia==
* Wailord is the tallest, and overall largest, Pokémon in existence.
** Wailord is also the only "giant" Pokémon whose size was ''not'' outdone in [[Generation IV|the following generation]].
* A Wailord, along with a {{p|Relicanth}}, is necessary in the party in order to unleash the three [[legendary golems]] from their sleeping places within the [[Sealed Chamber]] in the Generation III games.
* Wailord is well known for the [[HSOWA]] joke.
* Wailord has the fourth highest base HP stat of all Pokémon, after {{P|Blissey}}, {{P|Chansey}}, and {{P|Wobbuffet}}, in that order.
===Origin===
This Pokémon is based on the {{wp|blue whale}}, the largest known animal to exist.
====Name origin====
Wailord's name is a combination of ''whale'' and ''lord''. The ''wail'' may also refer to the sound that whales and this Pokémon may make.

Its Japanese name is probably a combination of ''whale'' and 王 ''ō'', king.

==Trivia==
* Wailord is the tallest, and overall largest, Pokémon in existence.
** Wailord is also the only "giant" Pokémon whose size was ''not'' outdone in [[Generation IV|the following generation]].
* A Wailord, along with a {{p|Relicanth}}, is necessary in the party in order to unleash the three [[legendary golems]] from their sleeping places within the [[Sealed Chamber]] in the Generation III games.
* Wailord is well known for the [[HSOWA]] joke.
* Wailord has the fourth highest base HP stat of all Pokémon, after {{P|Blissey}}, {{P|Chansey}}, and {{P|Wobbuffet}}, in that order.
===Origin===
This Pokémon is based on the {{wp|blue whale}}, the largest known animal to exist.
====Name origin====
Wailord's name is a combination of ''whale'' and ''lord''. The ''wail'' may also refer to the sound that whales and this Pokémon may make.

Its Japanese name is probably a combination of ''whale'' and 王 ''ō'', king.

'''Grumpig''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブーピッグ''' ''Boopig'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Spoink}} at [[level]] 32.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Grumpig is a Pokémon based upon a pig that is bipedal. The lower half of its body is black, while the upper half is purple. There is also black on its ears and arms, while its actual hands and feet are purple. There appear to be three shining black pearls on its body, two on its head and another on its mid-section where the black half meets the purple. These pearls are related to Grumpig's strong psychic powers. Its large ears are useful for hearing and properly directing the sound to the inner ear. It also has a pink snout on its face, along with human-like oval-shaped eyes and a mouth. One of its most notable features is its long and curly pink tail, that may have been what was used to bounce in its previous form, {{p|Spoink}}. It is unknown whether Grumpig is able to use the spring-like tail to its advantage aside from using the move {{m|Bounce}}.

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

====Special abilities====
Like {{p|Spoink}}, the pearls on Grumpig's body give it the ability to execute powerful {{t|Psychic}} attacks. An interesting ability of Grumpig's is being able to perform unusual dance steps to hypnotize its opponents; this is most likely since while performing Psychic-type moves while harnessing the energy of the pearls, it will automatically move in this odd way.

===Behavior===
As previously stated, Grumpig are known to perform odd dance steps. Interestingly, this dance has become popular among many humans. Much of Grumpig's behavior involves hypnotism and psychic power, which is most likely why it is known as the Manipulate Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

They're probably are omnivoires that are willing to try anything, but they're sometimes found with the [[Tanga Berry]] in their possesion.

==In the anime==
[[Image:KellysGrumpigpokedex.PNG|thumb|right|[[Kelly]]'s '''Grumpig''']]
Grumpig first appeared in ''[[AG090|Pokéblock, Stock, and Berry]]'', under the ownership of [[Kelly]]. Kelly used the Manipulate Pokémon in the [[Lilycove City]] Contest in [[AG091|the following episode]].

A Grumpig made an appearance in ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''.

==Trivia==
===Origin===
It is possible the inspiration for Grumpig came from the proverb "do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under your feet." The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who wouldn't appreciate the teachings. Grumpig and {{p|Spoink}} appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their mental powers. It's based on a <nowiki>pig</nowiki>.
====Name origin====
Grumpig's name is likely just a combination of ''grump'' and ''{{wp|pig}}''. ''Boopig'' is probably derived from ぶうぶう ''būbū'', grumbling or oinking, or 豚 ''buta'', pig, and the English word ''pig''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Groink - This name is probably a combination of ''grumbling'' and ''oink'', the sound pigs make.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Groret
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 피그킹 ''Pigking''

'''Spinda''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''パッチール''' ''Patcheel'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon. Spinda's spots have over 4 billion possible combinations, and are determined by its [[personality value]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
No Spinda is the same as another. All Spinda have different spots and spin patterns on their head and torso. Spinda resembles a small, upward standing rabbit or bear-like creature, with a small body similar, only slightly more bloated, to {{P|Plusle}} or {{P|Minun}}.
====Gender differences====
Although there is no specific difference among males and females, all Spinda look different anyway.

====Special abilities====
A handful of Spinda's attacks involve causing confusion, including the rarely seen {{m|Teeter Dance}}. Spinda can also use a handful of other {{t|Psychic}} attacks, such as the rarely seen {{m|Psycho Cut}} and {{m|Role Play}}. It is also capable of physical combat, such as using the elemental punches and {{m|Flail}}.

Spinda can either have the {{a|Own Tempo}} ability or the sparsely seen {{a|Tangled Feet}} ability.

===Behavior===
Spinda have the odd habit of staggering around when they walk. This makes them appear dizzy, but they are not. The teetering walk helps to confuse enemies and potential predators, messing up their aim.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==

==In the manga==
[[Norman]] has a Spinda in Pokémon Special.

==In the TCG==

==Trivia==
* Several of Spinda's moves focus on confusing opponents. Spinda's abilities also focus on confusion.
* A Spinda's spot pattern is determined by its [[personality value]], meaning that there can be exactly 4,294,967,296 different variations of Spinda.
*In Pokémon Battle Revolution, Toxic is depicted as two purple orbs spinning around each other towards the target. However, when Spinda uses [[Toxic]] the orbs travel erratically.
* Spinda is remarkably light for its size; it is a foot taller than {{p|Skitty}}, yet less than half the weight. No explanation for this has ever been given.
===Origin===
Spinda's body structure is based on the {{wp|panda}} with elongated {{wp|rabbit}} ears and the color seems to be of the {{wp|red panda}}.

====Name origin====
Spinda's name is a combination of ''spin'' and ''{{wp|panda}}'', referring to its fur patterns. Its Japanese name is based on ''patch'' or ''patchwork'', referring to its appearance, and 拈くる ''hinekuru'', twirl or spin.

[[Image:Trapinch anime.jpg|thumb|Trapinch in the anime]]Trapinch made its debut in ''[[AG106|Beg, Burrow and Steal]]''. The Trapinch of an area had dug a complex underground labyrinth. One reseacher named {{Ho|Hal}} wanted to find a lake that he claimed to see when he was a little boy. When {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, [[Brock]], [[Max]], Hal, another researcher named [[Elisa]] and [[Team Rocket]] got lost in the labyrinth, they eventually found the underground lake Hal was talking about.

Trapinch also make a cameo as one of [[Factory Head Noland|Noland]]'s Pokémon in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]''.

In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part Two]]'', [[Solana]] used her Capture Styler on a Trapinch and had it use {{m|Rock Tomb}} to trap a {{p|Golem}}, {{p|Graveler}}, {{p|Nidoking}}, {{p|Rhyhorn}} and {{p|Tyranitar}} that were attacking {{an|Dawn}}'s, Brock's and [[Officer Jenny]]'s Pokémon.

==Trivia==
*Trapinch has a higher base {{stat|Attack}} stat than its evolved form {{p|Vibrava}}. It also has the same base {{stat|Attack}} stat as {{p|Vibrava}}'s evolution, {{p|Flygon}}.
*Due to Trapinch not having a double weakness to {{t|Ice}}-type moves, and due to having really good potential on a {{m|Trick Room}}-based team, some trainers never evolve their Trapinch if they're using one on a Wi-Fi team.
*Despite being based on an insect, and being in the Bug egg group, Trapinch is a Ground-type Pokémon, and doesn't have {{t|Bug}} as a type.
*Out of all unevolved Pokémon, Trapinch can learn most moves by level-up which its evolutions can't. (excluding Pokémon who evolve from stones such as {{p|Raichu}} and {{p|Arcanine}})
===Origin===
It is based on the larval stage of the {{wp|antlion}}, who spend their days in sandy pits before maturing into a winged, adult stage.
====Name origin====
Trapinch's name is a combination of ''trap'' and ''pinch''. Its Japanese name may be a contraction of ''nutcracker''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Knacklion - A combination of ''Knack'', the German onomatopoeic word for "snap", and the English ''antlion''.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Kraknoix
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 톱치 ''Topchi''
