'''Route 1''' (Japanese: '''１{{tt|番道路|ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 1'') is a [[route]] located in western [[Kanto]]. It connects [[Pallet Town]] in the south to [[Viridian City]] in the north.

==Route description==
Heading north from [[Pallet Town]], {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must make their way around a large but very primitive route, that will become their very first route they will explore on their journey. The route is riddled with large patches of [[tall grass]], and [[ledge]]s that contour from far east to all to the far west, blocking off most of the route making it hard to travel north, only to have small gaps by which the road has been broken into it.
[[File:Poké Mart assistant Route 1 FRLG.png|thumb|left|200px|The [[Poké Mart]] assistant giving away free samples of [[Potion]]s]]
From the narrow "gateway" into Route 1, the route will make its way west as a ledge will block the road, however patches of tall grass be found by traveling east. After traveling north past the gap in the ledge, there will be a small clearing, where a man working for a [[Poké Mart]] can be found giving out a free [[Potion]] to Trainers. Heading away from the small clearing, the route makes its way eastern, and creates an "S" shapes as it winds around tall ground, as well as long ledges. Route 1 then travels northerly through two consecutive patches of tall grass, one larger than the other. It then finishes off by curving westerly, and then north as it enters [[Viridian City]].

Heading south from Viridian City, Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on their way to Pallet Town or they can travel through the grass patches, the required path for northbound travel. Following the grass-lined path, the route turns east then south as it enters the first patch. After a small break, the path of the route enters another patch of grass as the route turns west. Route 1 then makes an "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet.

There are no opponent Trainers on this route in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}. In [[Generation II]], two Trainers appear, while in [[Generation IV]], four Trainers are on the route. In [[Generation VII]], there is one Trainer here, although he cannot be challenged before delivering the [[Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]]. A [[Bitter Berry]] grows here in Generation II, while a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] does so in Generation IV. The Poké Mart employee is not present in Generations II and IV.

==Differences among generations==
===Generation I and III===
The [[route]] layout in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}} are nearly identical, however, the Generation I version has grassy patches to both the east and the west of the route itself. By using the [[Cheating|walk anywhere]] glitch, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can enter the grass, but the game will freeze as the area contains no walkable data nor data for wild Pokémon.

Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, flowers are more visible, and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

|}

===Generation II===
The route remains mostly the same apart from a few minor changes to the gameplay. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild Pokémon (which now include {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Furret}} and {{p|Hoothoot}}) on their way to [[Pallet Town]], or alternatively travel through the patches of grass.

On their way down, there are two other Trainers waiting for battle. One can found near the northern side of the route, while the other can be found in the near the middle in the clearing. He has replaced the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Poké Mart]] employee who gives away Potions, however there is a [[Bitter Berry]] tree that sprouted along the northwest portion of the route. Lastly, the grass patches outside of the route have been removed but the spacing between the route and the surrounding forest still remains.

|}

===Generation IV===
Other than graphical updates, the basic layout remains the same as previous generations, but the route is no longer flat, due to hills being added to give feeling of depth to the route. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], a [[gate]] has been added between the route and Viridian City, in order for the game to load the different tilesets used between the areas.

The Bitter Berry tree has been changed into a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] tree, which can be found between the two ledges located on the northwestern side of the route. By traveling east, Trainers are able to battle a {{tc|School Kid|Schoolboy}}, and by jumping off the ledge and heading east, another Schoolboy can be challenged, with Pokémon similar to the other Schoolboy in Generation II.

By jumping down the ledge and going through the tall grass, the route soon turns into the clearing. Like in Generation II, the Viridian Poké Mart employee is no longer present and is replaced by a Trainer. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays there is a photographer here, who will take a picture of the {{player}} and their party.

There is a male {{tc|Ace Trainer}} just south of the photographer, as well as another female {{tc|Ace Trainer}}, with Pokémon similar to the other Cooltrainer in Generation II. Route 1 makes the "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet Town.

===Generation VII===
The route remains mostly unchanged compared to previous generations. Only notable differences are the presence of a {{tc|Youngster}}, who will battle the player once [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Parcel]] has been delivered; a [[Berry]] bush in the northeast corner; and the inclusion of {{p|Oddish}}{{sup/7|P}}/{{p|Bellsprout}}{{sup/7|E}} into the selection of catchable Pokémon.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 anime.png|250px|thumb|left|Route 1 in {{aniseries|BW}}]]
[[File:Kanto Route 1 overview SM.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 overview in {{aniseries|SM}}]]
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Route 1 was introduced in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. {{Ash}}, who had just received his {{AP|Pikachu}} and was still trying to get a handle on the rebellious Pokémon, set off on his journey, beginning with Route 1. He first found a {{p|Pidgey}} and was eager to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it, but Pikachu didn't want to help him and instead ran up a tree. Frustrated, Ash decided to try to catch the Pidgey without Pikachu's help. He threw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it, but the Pidgey broke out easily and fled. Ash turned and saw a {{p|Rattata}} digging through his bag.

Ash turned and saw a group of Pidgey in the field; he threw a rock at them, which only scared them away. However, he saw another bird Pokémon in the field, mistook it for another Pidgey, and threw another rock at it, which hit it in the back of its head. When it turned to look at him, however, he realized that he actually hit a {{p|Spearow}}. The Spearow swooped several times to attack him and Pikachu.

As the Spearow chased Ash and Pikachu, two herds of Pokémon that do not appear on this route in the {{pkmn|games}} were seen: {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Sandshrew}}.

After jumping in the river, narrowly evading an attack from a {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}}, Ash and Pikachu met {{an|Misty}}, who was [[fishing]] for {{t|Water}} Pokémon. He stole her [[Bicycle|bike]], putting the injured Pikachu in its basket, and rode away, promising that he would bring it back someday. They were attacked once again by the Spearow, but Pikachu used a massive electrical attack to take out the entire flock. Once the storm cleared, Ash and Pikachu both rose from where they were knocked back on the ground, exhausted but victorious. Ash looked up and saw {{an|Ho-Oh|an unknown Pokémon}} majestically flying through the sky, over the rainbow that had been left after the storm, but his Pokédex could not identify the species.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Route 1 was also briefly seen in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'' while Ash and [[Alexa]] passed it on their way to Pallet Town.

===''I Choose You!''===
Route 1 appeared in the opening of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. [[Ash Ketchum (M20)|Ash]] left [[Pallet Town]] via this route at the start of his journey, with his newly obtained, disobedient [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)|Pikachu]]. Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a large flock of {{p|Spearow}} and attempted to escape in the midst of a rainstorm, culminating in Pikachu unleashing a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Spearow, knocking himself and his Trainer out in the process. Ash and Pikachu woke up after the storm had passed to see {{p|Ho-Oh}} flying overhead, dropping a [[Rainbow Wing]] as it flew. Ash picked up the feather and proclaimed to Pikachu that they would meet it again someday.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 PO.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Route 1 appeared in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was seen traveling through it on his way to Viridian City. Soon after entering the Route, he encountered a wild {{p|Pidgey}}, and tried to catch it, but it got away. After a short while, he got the hang of catching Pokémon, and caught multiple different species, including a {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Caterpie}}, and Pidgey.

Along the way, he encountered a {{tc|Youngster}}, who challenged him to a battle with his {{p|Nidoran♀}}. Not knowing other Trainer's Pokémon couldn't be caught, Red tried to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Nidoran♀, only to have it bounce off. The Youngster, however, agreed to tell Red where he could find a [[Nidoran]] of his own. Shortly before arriving in Viridian City, Red encountered {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}, who challenged him to a battle. Due to Blue's {{p|Squirtle}} having a type advantage over [[Red's Charmander]], Blue easily won the battle. Afterwards, Red met [[Brock]], who, having watched the battle, suggested Red that he should start challenging the [[Gym Leader]]s in order to learn how to battle.

==In the manga==
[[File:Kanto Route 1 Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
Route 1 made a brief appearance in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]''. After {{adv|Red}} had accidentally let loose some {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{adv|Professor Oak}} was keeping in his {{TP|Professor Oak|Laboratory}}, he and Professor Oak were forced to pursue them, with some of them having escaped all the way to Route 1 and [[Viridian City]].
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], if a player currently on Route 1 opens the [[Town Map]], pressing up will apparently do nothing at first, as the selection will go from Route 1 (the current place) to Route 1 again due to [[List of glitches in Generation I#Town Map selection oversight|an oversight]]. The player will need to press up twice to select the next place, which is [[Viridian City]]. Similarly, a player in the {{ka|Power Plant}} will need to press down twice to go to the previous place in the Town Map.
* A remix of the theme on this [[route]] was used in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It can also be found in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].
* In Generations II and IV, the remixed music track for this Route starts from the notes at the last few seconds of the original track's music.
* The ''[[Primo|Poké Dude]] Show'' that airs on the [[Teachy TV]] is filmed here.

'''Route 1''' (Japanese: '''１{{tt|番道路|ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 1'') is a [[route]] located in western [[Kanto]]. It connects [[Pallet Town]] in the south to [[Viridian City]] in the north.

==Route description==
Heading north from [[Pallet Town]], {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must make their way around a large but very primitive route, that will become their very first route they will explore on their journey. The route is riddled with large patches of [[tall grass]], and [[ledge]]s that contour from far east to all to the far west, blocking off most of the route making it hard to travel north, only to have small gaps by which the road has been broken into it.
[[File:Poké Mart assistant Route 1 FRLG.png|thumb|left|200px|The [[Poké Mart]] assistant giving away free samples of [[Potion]]s]]
From the narrow "gateway" into Route 1, the route will make its way west as a ledge will block the road, however patches of tall grass be found by traveling east. After traveling north past the gap in the ledge, there will be a small clearing, where a man working for a [[Poké Mart]] can be found giving out a free [[Potion]] to Trainers. Heading away from the small clearing, the route makes its way eastern, and creates an "S" shapes as it winds around tall ground, as well as long ledges. Route 1 then travels northerly through two consecutive patches of tall grass, one larger than the other. It then finishes off by curving westerly, and then north as it enters [[Viridian City]].

Heading south from Viridian City, Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on their way to Pallet Town or they can travel through the grass patches, the required path for northbound travel. Following the grass-lined path, the route turns east then south as it enters the first patch. After a small break, the path of the route enters another patch of grass as the route turns west. Route 1 then makes an "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet.

There are no opponent Trainers on this route in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}. In [[Generation II]], two Trainers appear, while in [[Generation IV]], four Trainers are on the route. In [[Generation VII]], there is one Trainer here, although he cannot be challenged before delivering the [[Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]]. A [[Bitter Berry]] grows here in Generation II, while a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] does so in Generation IV. The Poké Mart employee is not present in Generations II and IV.

==Differences among generations==
===Generation I and III===
The [[route]] layout in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}} are nearly identical, however, the Generation I version has grassy patches to both the east and the west of the route itself. By using the [[Cheating|walk anywhere]] glitch, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can enter the grass, but the game will freeze as the area contains no walkable data nor data for wild Pokémon.

Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, flowers are more visible, and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

|}

===Generation II===
The route remains mostly the same apart from a few minor changes to the gameplay. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild Pokémon (which now include {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Furret}} and {{p|Hoothoot}}) on their way to [[Pallet Town]], or alternatively travel through the patches of grass.

On their way down, there are two other Trainers waiting for battle. One can found near the northern side of the route, while the other can be found in the near the middle in the clearing. He has replaced the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Poké Mart]] employee who gives away Potions, however there is a [[Bitter Berry]] tree that sprouted along the northwest portion of the route. Lastly, the grass patches outside of the route have been removed but the spacing between the route and the surrounding forest still remains.

|}

===Generation IV===
Other than graphical updates, the basic layout remains the same as previous generations, but the route is no longer flat, due to hills being added to give feeling of depth to the route. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], a [[gate]] has been added between the route and Viridian City, in order for the game to load the different tilesets used between the areas.

The Bitter Berry tree has been changed into a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] tree, which can be found between the two ledges located on the northwestern side of the route. By traveling east, Trainers are able to battle a {{tc|School Kid|Schoolboy}}, and by jumping off the ledge and heading east, another Schoolboy can be challenged, with Pokémon similar to the other Schoolboy in Generation II.

By jumping down the ledge and going through the tall grass, the route soon turns into the clearing. Like in Generation II, the Viridian Poké Mart employee is no longer present and is replaced by a Trainer. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays there is a photographer here, who will take a picture of the {{player}} and their party.

There is a male {{tc|Ace Trainer}} just south of the photographer, as well as another female {{tc|Ace Trainer}}, with Pokémon similar to the other Cooltrainer in Generation II. Route 1 makes the "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet Town.

===Generation VII===
The route remains mostly unchanged compared to previous generations. Only notable differences are the presence of a {{tc|Youngster}}, who will battle the player once [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Parcel]] has been delivered; a [[Berry]] bush in the northeast corner; and the inclusion of {{p|Oddish}}{{sup/7|P}}/{{p|Bellsprout}}{{sup/7|E}} into the selection of catchable Pokémon.

[[File:Kanto Route 1 overview SM.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 overview in {{aniseries|SM}}]]
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Route 1 was introduced in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. {{Ash}}, who had just received his {{AP|Pikachu}} and was still trying to get a handle on the rebellious Pokémon, set off on his journey, beginning with Route 1. He first found a {{p|Pidgey}} and was eager to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it, but Pikachu didn't want to help him and instead ran up a tree. Frustrated, Ash decided to try to catch the Pidgey without Pikachu's help. He threw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it, but the Pidgey broke out easily and fled. Ash turned and saw a {{p|Rattata}} digging through his bag.

Ash turned and saw a group of Pidgey in the field; he threw a rock at them, which only scared them away. However, he saw another bird Pokémon in the field, mistook it for another Pidgey, and threw another rock at it, which hit it in the back of its head. When it turned to look at him, however, he realized that he actually hit a {{p|Spearow}}. The Spearow swooped several times to attack him and Pikachu.

As the Spearow chased Ash and Pikachu, two herds of Pokémon that do not appear on this route in the {{pkmn|games}} were seen: {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Sandshrew}}.

After jumping in the river, narrowly evading an attack from a {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}}, Ash and Pikachu met {{an|Misty}}, who was [[fishing]] for {{t|Water}} Pokémon. He stole her [[Bicycle|bike]], putting the injured Pikachu in its basket, and rode away, promising that he would bring it back someday. They were attacked once again by the Spearow, but Pikachu used a massive electrical attack to take out the entire flock. Once the storm cleared, Ash and Pikachu both rose from where they were knocked back on the ground, exhausted but victorious. Ash looked up and saw {{an|Ho-Oh|an unknown Pokémon}} majestically flying through the sky, over the rainbow that had been left after the storm, but his Pokédex could not identify the species.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Route 1 was also briefly seen in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'' while Ash and [[Alexa]] passed it on their way to Pallet Town.

Route 1 appeared in the opening of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. [[Ash Ketchum (M20)|Ash]] left [[Pallet Town]] via this route at the start of his journey, with his newly obtained, disobedient [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)|Pikachu]]. Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a large flock of {{p|Spearow}} and attempted to escape in the midst of a rainstorm, culminating in Pikachu unleashing a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Spearow, knocking himself and his Trainer out in the process. Ash and Pikachu woke up after the storm had passed to see {{p|Ho-Oh}} flying overhead, dropping a [[Rainbow Wing]] as it flew. Ash picked up the feather and proclaimed to Pikachu that they would meet it again someday.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 PO.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Route 1 appeared in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was seen traveling through it on his way to Viridian City. Soon after entering the Route, he encountered a wild {{p|Pidgey}}, and tried to catch it, but it got away. After a short while, he got the hang of catching Pokémon, and caught multiple different species, including a {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Caterpie}}, and Pidgey.

Along the way, he encountered a {{tc|Youngster}}, who challenged him to a battle with his {{p|Nidoran♀}}. Not knowing other Trainer's Pokémon couldn't be caught, Red tried to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Nidoran♀, only to have it bounce off. The Youngster, however, agreed to tell Red where he could find a [[Nidoran]] of his own. Shortly before arriving in Viridian City, Red encountered {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}, who challenged him to a battle. Due to Blue's {{p|Squirtle}} having a type advantage over [[Red's Charmander]], Blue easily won the battle. Afterwards, Red met [[Brock]], who, having watched the battle, suggested Red that he should start challenging the [[Gym Leader]]s in order to learn how to battle.

==In the manga==
[[File:Kanto Route 1 Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
Route 1 made a brief appearance in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]''. After {{adv|Red}} had accidentally let loose some {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{adv|Professor Oak}} was keeping in his {{TP|Professor Oak|Laboratory}}, he and Professor Oak were forced to pursue them, with some of them having escaped all the way to Route 1 and [[Viridian City]].
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], if a player currently on Route 1 opens the [[Town Map]], pressing up will apparently do nothing at first, as the selection will go from Route 1 (the current place) to Route 1 again due to [[List of glitches in Generation I#Town Map selection oversight|an oversight]]. The player will need to press up twice to select the next place, which is [[Viridian City]]. Similarly, a player in the {{ka|Power Plant}} will need to press down twice to go to the previous place in the Town Map.
* A remix of the theme on this [[route]] was used in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It can also be found in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].
* In Generations II and IV, the remixed music track for this Route starts from the notes at the last few seconds of the original track's music.
* The ''[[Primo|Poké Dude]] Show'' that airs on the [[Teachy TV]] is filmed here.

'''Route 1''' (Japanese: '''１{{tt|番道路|ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 1'') is a [[route]] located in western [[Kanto]]. It connects [[Pallet Town]] in the south to [[Viridian City]] in the north.

==Route description==
Heading north from [[Pallet Town]], {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must make their way around a large but very primitive route, that will become their very first route they will explore on their journey. The route is riddled with large patches of [[tall grass]], and [[ledge]]s that contour from far east to all to the far west, blocking off most of the route making it hard to travel north, only to have small gaps by which the road has been broken into it.
[[File:Poké Mart assistant Route 1 FRLG.png|thumb|left|200px|The [[Poké Mart]] assistant giving away free samples of [[Potion]]s]]
From the narrow "gateway" into Route 1, the route will make its way west as a ledge will block the road, however patches of tall grass be found by traveling east. After traveling north past the gap in the ledge, there will be a small clearing, where a man working for a [[Poké Mart]] can be found giving out a free [[Potion]] to Trainers. Heading away from the small clearing, the route makes its way eastern, and creates an "S" shapes as it winds around tall ground, as well as long ledges. Route 1 then travels northerly through two consecutive patches of tall grass, one larger than the other. It then finishes off by curving westerly, and then north as it enters [[Viridian City]].

Heading south from Viridian City, Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on their way to Pallet Town or they can travel through the grass patches, the required path for northbound travel. Following the grass-lined path, the route turns east then south as it enters the first patch. After a small break, the path of the route enters another patch of grass as the route turns west. Route 1 then makes an "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet.

There are no opponent Trainers on this route in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}. In [[Generation II]], two Trainers appear, while in [[Generation IV]], four Trainers are on the route. In [[Generation VII]], there is one Trainer here, although he cannot be challenged before delivering the [[Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]]. A [[Bitter Berry]] grows here in Generation II, while a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] does so in Generation IV. The Poké Mart employee is not present in Generations II and IV.

==Differences among generations==
===Generation I and III===
The [[route]] layout in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}} are nearly identical, however, the Generation I version has grassy patches to both the east and the west of the route itself. By using the [[Cheating|walk anywhere]] glitch, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can enter the grass, but the game will freeze as the area contains no walkable data nor data for wild Pokémon.

Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, flowers are more visible, and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

|}

===Generation II===
The route remains mostly the same apart from a few minor changes to the gameplay. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild Pokémon (which now include {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Furret}} and {{p|Hoothoot}}) on their way to [[Pallet Town]], or alternatively travel through the patches of grass.

On their way down, there are two other Trainers waiting for battle. One can found near the northern side of the route, while the other can be found in the near the middle in the clearing. He has replaced the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Poké Mart]] employee who gives away Potions, however there is a [[Bitter Berry]] tree that sprouted along the northwest portion of the route. Lastly, the grass patches outside of the route have been removed but the spacing between the route and the surrounding forest still remains.

|}

===Generation IV===
Other than graphical updates, the basic layout remains the same as previous generations, but the route is no longer flat, due to hills being added to give feeling of depth to the route. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], a [[gate]] has been added between the route and Viridian City, in order for the game to load the different tilesets used between the areas.

The Bitter Berry tree has been changed into a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] tree, which can be found between the two ledges located on the northwestern side of the route. By traveling east, Trainers are able to battle a {{tc|School Kid|Schoolboy}}, and by jumping off the ledge and heading east, another Schoolboy can be challenged, with Pokémon similar to the other Schoolboy in Generation II.

By jumping down the ledge and going through the tall grass, the route soon turns into the clearing. Like in Generation II, the Viridian Poké Mart employee is no longer present and is replaced by a Trainer. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays there is a photographer here, who will take a picture of the {{player}} and their party.

There is a male {{tc|Ace Trainer}} just south of the photographer, as well as another female {{tc|Ace Trainer}}, with Pokémon similar to the other Cooltrainer in Generation II. Route 1 makes the "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet Town.

===Generation VII===
The route remains mostly unchanged compared to previous generations. Only notable differences are the presence of a {{tc|Youngster}}, who will battle the player once [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Parcel]] has been delivered; a [[Berry]] bush in the northeast corner; and the inclusion of {{p|Oddish}}{{sup/7|P}}/{{p|Bellsprout}}{{sup/7|E}} into the selection of catchable Pokémon.

[[File:Kanto Route 1 overview SM.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 overview in {{aniseries|SM}}]]
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Route 1 was introduced in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. {{Ash}}, who had just received his {{AP|Pikachu}} and was still trying to get a handle on the rebellious Pokémon, set off on his journey, beginning with Route 1. He first found a {{p|Pidgey}} and was eager to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it, but Pikachu didn't want to help him and instead ran up a tree. Frustrated, Ash decided to try to catch the Pidgey without Pikachu's help. He threw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it, but the Pidgey broke out easily and fled. Ash turned and saw a {{p|Rattata}} digging through his bag.

Ash turned and saw a group of Pidgey in the field; he threw a rock at them, which only scared them away. However, he saw another bird Pokémon in the field, mistook it for another Pidgey, and threw another rock at it, which hit it in the back of its head. When it turned to look at him, however, he realized that he actually hit a {{p|Spearow}}. The Spearow swooped several times to attack him and Pikachu.

As the Spearow chased Ash and Pikachu, two herds of Pokémon that do not appear on this route in the {{pkmn|games}} were seen: {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Sandshrew}}.

After jumping in the river, narrowly evading an attack from a {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}}, Ash and Pikachu met {{an|Misty}}, who was [[fishing]] for {{t|Water}} Pokémon. He stole her [[Bicycle|bike]], putting the injured Pikachu in its basket, and rode away, promising that he would bring it back someday. They were attacked once again by the Spearow, but Pikachu used a massive electrical attack to take out the entire flock. Once the storm cleared, Ash and Pikachu both rose from where they were knocked back on the ground, exhausted but victorious. Ash looked up and saw {{an|Ho-Oh|an unknown Pokémon}} majestically flying through the sky, over the rainbow that had been left after the storm, but his Pokédex could not identify the species.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Route 1 was also briefly seen in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'' while Ash and [[Alexa]] passed it on their way to Pallet Town.

Route 1 appeared in the opening of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. [[Ash Ketchum (M20)|Ash]] left [[Pallet Town]] via this route at the start of his journey, with his newly obtained, disobedient [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)|Pikachu]]. Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a large flock of {{p|Spearow}} and attempted to escape in the midst of a rainstorm, culminating in Pikachu unleashing a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Spearow, knocking himself and his Trainer out in the process. Ash and Pikachu woke up after the storm had passed to see {{p|Ho-Oh}} flying overhead, dropping a [[Rainbow Wing]] as it flew. Ash picked up the feather and proclaimed to Pikachu that they would meet it again someday.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 PO.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Route 1 appeared in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was seen traveling through it on his way to Viridian City. Soon after entering the Route, he encountered a wild {{p|Pidgey}}, and tried to catch it, but it got away. After a short while, he got the hang of catching Pokémon, and caught multiple different species, including a {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Caterpie}}, and Pidgey.

Along the way, he encountered a {{tc|Youngster}}, who challenged him to a battle with his {{p|Nidoran♀}}. Not knowing other Trainer's Pokémon couldn't be caught, Red tried to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Nidoran♀, only to have it bounce off. The Youngster, however, agreed to tell Red where he could find a [[Nidoran]] of his own. Shortly before arriving in Viridian City, Red encountered {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}, who challenged him to a battle. Due to Blue's {{p|Squirtle}} having a type advantage over [[Red's Charmander]], Blue easily won the battle. Afterwards, Red met [[Brock]], who, having watched the battle, suggested Red that he should start challenging the [[Gym Leader]]s in order to learn how to battle.

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], if a player currently on Route 1 opens the [[Town Map]], pressing up will apparently do nothing at first, as the selection will go from Route 1 (the current place) to Route 1 again due to [[List of glitches in Generation I#Town Map selection oversight|an oversight]]. The player will need to press up twice to select the next place, which is [[Viridian City]]. Similarly, a player in the {{ka|Power Plant}} will need to press down twice to go to the previous place in the Town Map.
* A remix of the theme on this [[route]] was used in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It can also be found in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].
* In Generations II and IV, the remixed music track for this Route starts from the notes at the last few seconds of the original track's music.
* The ''[[Primo|Poké Dude]] Show'' that airs on the [[Teachy TV]] is filmed here.

'''Route 1''' (Japanese: '''１{{tt|番道路|ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 1'') is a [[route]] located in western [[Kanto]]. It connects [[Pallet Town]] in the south to [[Viridian City]] in the north.

==Route description==
Heading north from [[Pallet Town]], {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must make their way around a large but very primitive route, that will become their very first route they will explore on their journey. The route is riddled with large patches of [[tall grass]], and [[ledge]]s that contour from far east to all to the far west, blocking off most of the route making it hard to travel north, only to have small gaps by which the road has been broken into it.
[[File:Poké Mart assistant Route 1 FRLG.png|thumb|left|200px|The [[Poké Mart]] assistant giving away free samples of [[Potion]]s]]
From the narrow "gateway" into Route 1, the route will make its way west as a ledge will block the road, however patches of tall grass be found by traveling east. After traveling north past the gap in the ledge, there will be a small clearing, where a man working for a [[Poké Mart]] can be found giving out a free [[Potion]] to Trainers. Heading away from the small clearing, the route makes its way eastern, and creates an "S" shapes as it winds around tall ground, as well as long ledges. Route 1 then travels northerly through two consecutive patches of tall grass, one larger than the other. It then finishes off by curving westerly, and then north as it enters [[Viridian City]].

Heading south from Viridian City, Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on their way to Pallet Town or they can travel through the grass patches, the required path for northbound travel. Following the grass-lined path, the route turns east then south as it enters the first patch. After a small break, the path of the route enters another patch of grass as the route turns west. Route 1 then makes an "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet.

There are no opponent Trainers on this route in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}. In [[Generation II]], two Trainers appear, while in [[Generation IV]], four Trainers are on the route. In [[Generation VII]], there is one Trainer here, although he cannot be challenged before delivering the [[Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]]. A [[Bitter Berry]] grows here in Generation II, while a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] does so in Generation IV. The Poké Mart employee is not present in Generations II and IV.

==Differences among generations==
[[File:Kanto Route 1 HGSS.png|thumb|200px|Route 1 in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}]]
===Generation I and III===
The [[route]] layout in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}} are nearly identical, however, the Generation I version has grassy patches to both the east and the west of the route itself. By using the [[Cheating|walk anywhere]] glitch, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can enter the grass, but the game will freeze as the area contains no walkable data nor data for wild Pokémon.

Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, flowers are more visible, and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

|}

===Generation II===
The route remains mostly the same apart from a few minor changes to the gameplay. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild Pokémon (which now include {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Furret}} and {{p|Hoothoot}}) on their way to [[Pallet Town]], or alternatively travel through the patches of grass.

On their way down, there are two other Trainers waiting for battle. One can found near the northern side of the route, while the other can be found in the near the middle in the clearing. He has replaced the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Poké Mart]] employee who gives away Potions, however there is a [[Bitter Berry]] tree that sprouted along the northwest portion of the route. Lastly, the grass patches outside of the route have been removed but the spacing between the route and the surrounding forest still remains.

===Generation IV===
Other than graphical updates, the basic layout remains the same as previous generations, but the route is no longer flat, due to hills being added to give feeling of depth to the route. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], a [[gate]] has been added between the route and Viridian City, in order for the game to load the different tilesets used between the areas.

The Bitter Berry tree has been changed into a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] tree, which can be found between the two ledges located on the northwestern side of the route. By traveling east, Trainers are able to battle a {{tc|School Kid|Schoolboy}}, and by jumping off the ledge and heading east, another Schoolboy can be challenged, with Pokémon similar to the other Schoolboy in Generation II.

By jumping down the ledge and going through the tall grass, the route soon turns into the clearing. Like in Generation II, the Viridian Poké Mart employee is no longer present and is replaced by a Trainer. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays there is a photographer here, who will take a picture of the {{player}} and their party.

There is a male {{tc|Ace Trainer}} just south of the photographer, as well as another female {{tc|Ace Trainer}}, with Pokémon similar to the other Cooltrainer in Generation II. Route 1 makes the "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet Town.

===Generation VII===
The route remains mostly unchanged compared to previous generations. Only notable differences are the presence of a {{tc|Youngster}}, who will battle the player once [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Parcel]] has been delivered; a [[Berry]] bush in the northeast corner; and the inclusion of {{p|Oddish}}{{sup/7|P}}/{{p|Bellsprout}}{{sup/7|E}} into the selection of catchable Pokémon.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 anime.png|250px|thumb|left|Route 1 in {{aniseries|BW}}]]
[[File:Kanto Route 1 overview SM.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 overview in {{aniseries|SM}}]]
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Route 1 was introduced in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. {{Ash}}, who had just received his {{AP|Pikachu}} and was still trying to get a handle on the rebellious Pokémon, set off on his journey, beginning with Route 1. He first found a {{p|Pidgey}} and was eager to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it, but Pikachu didn't want to help him and instead ran up a tree. Frustrated, Ash decided to try to catch the Pidgey without Pikachu's help. He threw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it, but the Pidgey broke out easily and fled. Ash turned and saw a {{p|Rattata}} digging through his bag.

Ash turned and saw a group of Pidgey in the field; he threw a rock at them, which only scared them away. However, he saw another bird Pokémon in the field, mistook it for another Pidgey, and threw another rock at it, which hit it in the back of its head. When it turned to look at him, however, he realized that he actually hit a {{p|Spearow}}. The Spearow swooped several times to attack him and Pikachu.

As the Spearow chased Ash and Pikachu, two herds of Pokémon that do not appear on this route in the {{pkmn|games}} were seen: {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Sandshrew}}.

After jumping in the river, narrowly evading an attack from a {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}}, Ash and Pikachu met {{an|Misty}}, who was [[fishing]] for {{t|Water}} Pokémon. He stole her [[Bicycle|bike]], putting the injured Pikachu in its basket, and rode away, promising that he would bring it back someday. They were attacked once again by the Spearow, but Pikachu used a massive electrical attack to take out the entire flock. Once the storm cleared, Ash and Pikachu both rose from where they were knocked back on the ground, exhausted but victorious. Ash looked up and saw {{an|Ho-Oh|an unknown Pokémon}} majestically flying through the sky, over the rainbow that had been left after the storm, but his Pokédex could not identify the species.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Route 1 was also briefly seen in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'' while Ash and [[Alexa]] passed it on their way to Pallet Town.

Route 1 appeared in the opening of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. [[Ash Ketchum (M20)|Ash]] left [[Pallet Town]] via this route at the start of his journey, with his newly obtained, disobedient [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)|Pikachu]]. Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a large flock of {{p|Spearow}} and attempted to escape in the midst of a rainstorm, culminating in Pikachu unleashing a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Spearow, knocking himself and his Trainer out in the process. Ash and Pikachu woke up after the storm had passed to see {{p|Ho-Oh}} flying overhead, dropping a [[Rainbow Wing]] as it flew. Ash picked up the feather and proclaimed to Pikachu that they would meet it again someday.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 PO.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Route 1 appeared in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was seen traveling through it on his way to Viridian City. Soon after entering the Route, he encountered a wild {{p|Pidgey}}, and tried to catch it, but it got away. After a short while, he got the hang of catching Pokémon, and caught multiple different species, including a {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Caterpie}}, and Pidgey.

Along the way, he encountered a {{tc|Youngster}}, who challenged him to a battle with his {{p|Nidoran♀}}. Not knowing other Trainer's Pokémon couldn't be caught, Red tried to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Nidoran♀, only to have it bounce off. The Youngster, however, agreed to tell Red where he could find a [[Nidoran]] of his own. Shortly before arriving in Viridian City, Red encountered {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}, who challenged him to a battle. Due to Blue's {{p|Squirtle}} having a type advantage over [[Red's Charmander]], Blue easily won the battle. Afterwards, Red met [[Brock]], who, having watched the battle, suggested Red that he should start challenging the [[Gym Leader]]s in order to learn how to battle.

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], if a player currently on Route 1 opens the [[Town Map]], pressing up will apparently do nothing at first, as the selection will go from Route 1 (the current place) to Route 1 again due to [[List of glitches in Generation I#Town Map selection oversight|an oversight]]. The player will need to press up twice to select the next place, which is [[Viridian City]]. Similarly, a player in the {{ka|Power Plant}} will need to press down twice to go to the previous place in the Town Map.
* A remix of the theme on this [[route]] was used in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It can also be found in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].
* In Generations II and IV, the remixed music track for this Route starts from the notes at the last few seconds of the original track's music.
* The ''[[Primo|Poké Dude]] Show'' that airs on the [[Teachy TV]] is filmed here.

== Origin Speculation ==

Some accounts I have heard simply state that Raikou, Entei and Suicune were, after their immolation, simply resurrected, not reincarnated. If that's the case, then they were Entei, Suicune and Raikou BEFORE the disaster, and so not CREATED by Ho-Oh - just related to him by the ordeal of these three individuals. I have no citation, so I did not add this to the article. [[User:SixthFlyingMan|SixthFlyingMan]] 09:28, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

:Meh, speculation is speculation. Can't do much with it. [[User:GlinnMgraw|Glinn]] [[User_talk:GlinnMgraw|Mgraw]] 15:09, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

::This and the Eeveelutions as their original forms are contradictions to what is told about them. ::Because Ho-oh embodied them with the 3 events that happened and therefore they are now of the types Electric, Fire and Water.
::A more logical theory however is that they were unevolved Eevees. There's even some information backing up this:
::-Eevees evolve into Eeveelutions of the element they are exposed too (limited to the beasts types) and Ho-oh gave them an "overdose" of those elements by embodying them with these from the events (they are even statwise comparable).
::-the other thing is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8t8Ly0hfXY
::There are 3 Sages, the protectors of the Tin Tower, in Crystal and they use 1 of just those 3 Eeveelutions in battle. One could assume there have been eeveetrainers, protectors of the Brass Tower once, whose the Eevees that died could have been. --[[User:Saiph charon|Saiph charon]] 09:04, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

== Dogs or Cats ==

I think that personally the beasts deserve to be called dogs more simple because each of them bears a resemblance to a dog, Suicune I think is the most because of his face and body shape. Raikou defeneatly has a canine body but a more cat looking face with it's teeth making him look like a saber tooth tiger. Entei looks about the most cat like I think it looks like a giant cat or lion kind of thing.

Calling them the legendary dogs is not really a correct term and is more of just an opinion. in my opinion, i like the idea of legendary cats better, but calling them the legendary beasts is more of a correct and collective term. Raikou in no way looks like a canine. Suicune has a lean canine body but has small cat feet, and Entei has a dog body but has a lion's face. So, legendary beasts is a better grouped term to call the trio considering that at least suicune and entei look part canine and part feline; as well as the fact that some people see more canine features in their anatomy while others see more feline features in their anatomy. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 23:46, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

:"Beasts" is best, because there's just too much of a division amongst the fanbase as to which animal group they should be associated with, so it's best to keep it ambiguous. It's almost as bad as the Eeveelutions. [[User:Lucentas|Lucentas]] 18:10, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

== Trivia point ==

I just read in the trivia that each legendary beast is the physical form of one of the three events that happened at Brass Tower when it was destroyed; Raikou was the lightning stike, Entei was the fire that started, and Suicune was the rain that put out the flames. Is this true? Has it ever been mentioned anywhere else? [[User:Bttsstewart|Bttsstewart]] 10:54, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

== Origins idea? ==

Not my thought- this was brought up as an anonymous post on 420chan's /po/ but was surprisingly insightful, especially with the origins of the beasts and their roles in the game compared to what they were said to be in this metaphor. I suppose I will say this in two words: Dante's Inferno. In the first Canto of the Inferno, Dante is assaulted by "a lion, a leopard, and a she-wolf" (who symbolize the sins of self indulgence, violence, and malice, respectively).

Normally I would laugh away any attempt to explain where GameFreak got the basis for a monster without them explicitly stating it, but the simultaneous appearance of a lion (Entei), leopard (Raikou), and she-wolf (Suicune) in "Inferno" seems too conspicuous to ignore. Any thoughts on this? Extended analogies from Dante to prove/disprove? [[User:TheCakeIsALie|NonaSuomi]]
: Doubtful, considering Entei and Raikou look nothing like a lion or leopard, and you can only make a weak comparison to Suicune as a wolf.[[User:Reign|Reign]] 09:31, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

== Ordering? ==

I'm seeing Raikou, Entei, and Suicune. That's according to the NDex numbers. Not sure if it's just me, but does anyone else see the same naming scheme as in the birds? Suic''une''' (pron. is Spanish for one) Rai''kou'' (rhymes two) and En''tei'' (sorta like three).

:That's more of a forum question, but whatever. I've always found Mean Look to be a waste of time, seeing as their HP and status carry over to your next battle with them.

'''Dotted Hole''' (Japanese: '''てんのあな''' ''Dotted Hole'') is a place only accessible in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. It is located in [[Ruin Valley]] on [[Six Island]] and is the place where players will get the {{i|Sapphire}}, which, in conjunction with the {{i|Ruby}}, allows [[Celio]]'s Network Machine to connect to [[Lanette]]'s [[Pokémon Storage System|PC system]] in [[Hoenn]], and enables [[trade]]s with {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, {{pkmn|Colosseum}}, and {{Pokémon XD|XD}}. A [[Team Rocket scientists|Team Rocket scientist]], [[Gideon]], will steal it, though, and the player must venture back to [[Five Island]] to retrieve it from him. In order to open the door, the player must use {{m|Cut}} in front of it. However, Gideon will stand in front of the door until the player helps [[Lorelei]] defeat the three {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s at [[Icefall Cave]].

==Braille translations==
Along with the cave within [[Mt. Ember]], this is one of only two locations in the [[Sevii Islands]] that has [[Braille]] writing, both on the door (from which the area gets its name) and within, which will direct players to the location of the Sapphire.

==Trivia==
* The message at the bottom floor of the Dotted Hole is possibly a reference to Bill and Celio creating a device that allows trade between FireRed and LeafGreen and Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald by using the Ruby and Sapphire found in the Sevii Islands.
* The pillars and door at the entrance to the Dotted Hole actually have real Braille symbols on them. While the symbols would seemingly be random to someone who knows English Braille (as the symbols on the left pillar, right pillar, and door respectively in English Grade 2 Braille are an A, a closing quotation mark(”), and the word For), in Japanese Braille they're much more obvious: The left pillar is very similar, being the symbol for the A kana (あ); the right pillar's symbol is for the N kana (ん), which is equivalent to "Z" in the English alphabet as the "last" symbol thus mirroring the "A" of the other pillar; and the door's symbol is for the ME kana (め), which is, again, seemingly random.
** Though, it should be noted that the door's mark of six dots is likely not intended to have character meaning, but lore meaning. The area description says the Dotted Hole got its name because of the mark of six dots on the door, so despite the dots being a valid Japanese Braille character, this is likely just a coincidence.
** Since the A kana (あ) and the N kana (ん) are the first and last kanas in Japanese braille, it may have been intentional for the [[Remake|remakes]] of Ruby and Sapphire to be named {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} as Alpha (Α) and Omega (Ω) are the first and last letters in the Greek alphabet.

== Rematch Trigger ==

I thought every trainer on the map has a separate 31% chance to demand a rematch every 255 steps, so if I want to rematch Valerie on the 6th floor of Mt. Pyre, I'd have to walk around that floor for 255 steps until she wants to battle. But I did something different. After moving 225 steps anywhere on Mt. Pyre, say the exterior, I climbed up to the interior 6th floor and stepped between floors 5 and 6, and Valerie wanted a rematch. Has anyone tried this before?

'''Pokémon Battle Revolution''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンバトルレボリューション''' ''Pokémon Battle Revolution'') is the first [[Pokémon games|Pokémon game]] for the [[Wii]]. It supports connectivity with the [[Nintendo DS]], allowing Trainers to battle using their Pokémon from the [[Generation IV]] main series games while using their Nintendo DS as a controller. It was released in Japan on December 14, 2006, two weeks after the Wii launch, and in the United States on June 25, 2007.

==Gameplay==
[[File:Discharge PBR.png|256px|thumb|right|Two Pokémon hit by {{m|Discharge}} at the same time]]
[[File:Pokemon Battle Revolution intro.png|thumb|250px|right|Revolution Title Screen]]
[[File:Poketopia Battle Revolution.png|thumb|250px|right|Pokétopia]]
Pokémon Battle Revolution features eleven different colosseums in a new area called Pokétopia. Other features include stadiums that have their own special effects, such as randomizing the order of one's Pokémon.

Players can fully customize their {{pkmn|Trainer}} to use on Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Players can customize their [[Model|characters]] with hats, shirts, glasses, and other things. Additionally, for the U.S. release, Nintendo had added the option to customize a Trainer's skin pigmentation. A key difference from this game compared to the Stadium titles is that minigames are absent from this game. A Trainer can choose 6 Pokémon and get a Rental Pass; however, if [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl]], {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, or SoulSilver]] is connected, a player can upload their trained Pokémon and get a [[Custom Pass]].

Key differences from other Pokémon console games shown are that the Pokémon can now actually strike at the opponent physically while both Pokémon are rendered on the screen, instead of seeing one {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} attacking and then cutting away to the second getting hit by the attack as in previous titles. Moves that do not contact, however, follow the same style as the older games to keep the pace of gameplay up. When an attack that strikes more than one Pokémon is performed, it may hit two of them on screen simultaneously, instead of showing it as the attack striking one Pokémon first then the second Pokémon next. The game also features a 100-Trainer battle when it is completed for the first time.

Like the two Stadium games, Pokémon Battle Revolution features an announcer that provides play-by-play commentary.
==Blurb==
BRING YOUR BATTLE TO THE BIG SCREEN! Grab a Battle Pass, customise your Trainer and battle your way to the rank of [[Pokétopia]] Master! Or, battle against up to three friends with Pokémon Diamond or Pokémon Pearl using your Nintendo DS system as a controller!

==Starter Pokémon==
In Pokémon Battle Revolution, the player's starter Pokémon are determined by the gender specified on their [[Rental Pass]] or [[Custom Pass]]. They are all at level 50.

Male players start out with the following Pokémon:

{| style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{pbr color dark}}; font-size:85%; {{roundy}}; border:5px solid #{{pbr color}}"
|-

{| style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{pbr color dark}}; font-size:85%; {{roundy}}; border:5px solid #{{pbr color}}"
|-

|}

==Colosseums==
The game features eleven different colosseums, each with special changes to normal play or prerequisites and either a {{tc|Colosseum Leader}} or {{tc|Colosseum Master}}. The six Colosseum Leaders wear Pokémon costumes; for example, Marina of the Waterfall Colosseum wears a Kyogre costume. Also, the Crystal Colosseum can hold up to 16 players, the battles are done in a 16-person tournament mode. After beating the Pokétopia Championship, the player is given a {{p|Pikachu}} with {{m|Volt Tackle}}, {{m|Surf}}, and a [[Light Ball]] (such a Pikachu is impossible for a player to make by normal means). Each level rule (Level 30 Open and Level 50 All) for a Colosseum has a specific ranking, which goes up as the player wins. As the rank increases, the Trainers become stronger and the Poké Coupon rewards become greater. Around Rank 7, the Leaders and Trainers will begin to use [[Legendary Pokémon]].

==Shop==
Using the [[Poké Coupon]]s earned in Battle mode, the player can shop for Gear and Mystery Gifts.

===Gear===
Gear consists of hats, pants, shirts, bags, badges, glasses, hair colors, eye colors, face paint, shoes, and gloves which can be used to alter the outfit and appearance of the Trainer on the player's [[Custom Pass]].

===Mystery Gift===
[[Poké Coupon]]s can also be used to purchase items which can be sent to the [[Generation IV]] DS games via [[Mystery Gift]]. Some items are not available until certain conditions have been met.

The code is case-sensitive, and is only checked on exiting the Profile menu; if the code matches the changed introduction is not saved and the previously entered value will remain (other fields in the profile are changed normally). This does not happen if the code has already been used; the introduction is changed to it directly in that case.

===Rules===
The rules for battle could be modified in various ways:
* Level: The levels of the Pokémon allowed could be set to Anything Goes (No restriction), Level 50 All (levels were set to 50) or a custom range and level total (the maximum combined level allowed of the 6 Pokémon)
* Entry Pokémon: How many Pokémon were used. Could be set from 1-6, or have no restriction, in which case players could enter as many or as few Pokémon as they wanted.
* Time limit for one battle: No limit, or a range of 1-99 Minutes. Time continued counting down even during attack animations. When time ran out, the Trainer with the most Pokémon remaining was the winner.
* Time limit for move selection: No limit, or a range of 20-99 Seconds. If a player ran out of time for move selection, the computer selected their moves for them.
The following options were either yes/allow or no/disallow selections.
* Allow same Pokémon on a team?
* Allow Pokémon with identical [[Held item|hold items]]?
* Allow two or more Pokémon to be put to {{status|sleep}} on the [[Party|same team]]?
* Allow two or more Pokémon to be {{status|Freeze|frozen}} on the same team?
* If all Pokémon faint due to {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, user loses? (If turned off, such a situation resulted in a draw rather than a victory for either side)
* Should {{m|Perish Song}} and {{m|Destiny Bond}} fail if used by a team's final Pokémon?
* Fixed-damage moves like {{m|Dragon Rage}} and {{m|SonicBoom}} always fail?

==Legendary Pokémon banning controversy==
Due to the lack of clauses in online random multiplayer, Trainers with [[Legendary Pokémon]] ran rampant on the system, attracting controversy as to why Pokémon Battle Revolution was not using official Pokémon video game tournament rules—which ban Legendary Pokémon. However, on July 3, 2007, Legendary Pokémon (referred to as "exotic" Pokémon by the game) became banned from the system. Although it was originally speculated to be a [[glitch]], a [[Global Trade System#Temporary legendary Pokémon ban|similar incident]] occurred on the same date in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. The banning of these Pokémon resulted in significant backlash from the community. A Nintendo representative later [http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=934033&topic=36507640 stated]{{dead link}} that the ban was a technical difficulty. The similar GTS problem was not addressed.

The ban was lifted sometime later, as Legendary Pokémon were then able to be used until the discontinuation of [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]].

Something similar happened to the American [[List of local English event Pokémon distributions (Generation IV)#Toys "R" Us Darkrai|Alamos Darkrai]] given out at Toys "R" Us events. While the Japanese {{DL|List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions (Generation IV)|Movie Darkrai}}, the {{p|Darkrai}} obtained from [[Newmoon Island]] by hacking, and the [[Ranger Net#Liberate The Tower.21|Darkrai]] from [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]] worked fine, Alamos Darkrai was not allowed in online random multiplayer. This was fixed later on, and Alamos Darkrai were freely usable until the discontinuation of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

==Development and history==
The game was first announced by Nintendo president Satoru Iwata at a Nintendo marketing event in Japan on June 7, 2006. At the event, Iwata described Wii-to-DS connectivity using the game as an example, stating that gamers with either Pokémon Diamond or Pearl can play battles using their Diamond or Pearl Pokémon to Pokémon Battle Revolution using their DS as a controller.

The first shown video of Pokémon Battle Revolution showcased a battle between Red and Leaf on what would become the Neon Colosseum. Interestingly, in said movie, a Groudon uses Hyper Beam on a Deoxys, not only defeating it, but leaving a large gash in the floor of the Colosseum, and a hole in the wall. It is unknown if these environment damages would have remained over the course of the battle, but no such thing is possible in the final game. The camera also appeared to be more dynamic than it is in the final game: when selecting its moves, the camera first focuses on the first Pokémon, then quickly pans over to the second Pokémon to select its moves, then pans over to the Trainer who is shown making an attack command, and the attacks begin. The camera simply cuts between these shots in the final game. The last difference is the HP meter that is shown on screen when damage is done. In the video, the numerical value of the HP is shown on the HP meter, however that does not happen in any game mode in the final version.

The DS linkup feature was demoed at 2006 Nintendo World Tour for the first time. As well as allowing Pokémon from a Pokémon Diamond or Pearl cartridge to be used in-game, it replaces the on-screen battle menu normally used in conjunction with the Wii Remote. The battle menu is displayed on the DS touchscreen instead, and is navigated with the stylus. Up to eight players can play in a 1-on-1 tournament, much like the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}'s [[Battle Dome]] in {{game|Emerald}}.

==Connectivity==
===Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection===
Pokémon Battle Revolution could battle with other copies of Pokémon Battle Revolution via [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. Online functionality for Pokémon Battle Revolution was shut down on May 20, 2014 with the discontinuation of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service.

When battling online, players can either battle in random matchups or with friends.

When battling in random matchups, only the level 50 all rule set is available, as either [[Double Battle|Double]] or Single Battles (Double being the default). After selecting the preferred Colosseum and Trainer Card, the game matches the player with another random player. During the battle, all Pokémon nicknames are removed and all Trainer quotes are set to their defaults. After the battle, the players can exchange [[Friend Pass]]es, but only if both players agreed to.

Pokémon Battle Revolution also allows players to battle directly with their friends. Friends are registered within the game by using a 12-digit [[Friend Code]], separate from the Wii's friend system. In a friend battle, players can either use the Colosseum ruleset, or any custom set of rules they have already created within the game. From the friend lobby, players can see the current status of anyone on their friend list and join a battle that friend is hosting one.

===Copy Pokémon===
{{incomplete|section|needs=Confirm whether Origin Forme Giratina (and its held Griseous Orb), Sky Forme Shaymin, alternate form Rotom, and Spiky-eared Pichu simply cannot be copied, or if they are treated as their base forms (and what happens to Rotom's moves if copied while in an alternate form)}}
Pokémon Battle Revolution can copy Pokémon from {{game5|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. Once Pokémon are copied from a DS Pokémon game to Pokémon Battle Revolution, only that same DS Pokémon game can connect to Pokémon Battle Revolution again in the future.

Due to the game being released before {{game|Platinum}}, alternate forms that were introduced in Pokémon Platinum or Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver are not present in the game. If Origin Forme {{p|Giratina}}, Sky Forme {{p|Shaymin}}, or any of {{p|Rotom}}'s alternate forms (all of which were introduced in Pokémon Platinum) would be copied to Pokémon Battle Revolution, they are copied in their base form instead; in the case of Rotom, it will forget its alternate form's special move. If [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] would be copied, it is copied as a regular {{p|Pichu}} instead.

==Reception==
Pokémon Battle Revolution received mostly negative to lukewarm reviews, which eventually lead to the end of the game's production. {{wp|IGN}} has given this game a 5.0 out of 10 for many reasons. First, the website claimed, the game lacks many features demonstrated in previous games such as {{OBP|Pokémon Stadium|English}} and [[Pokémon Colosseum]], notably the {{wp|Role-playing game|RPG}} mode. The multiplayer and online battles were also criticized for lacking features such as tournament play. {{wp|GameSpot}} gave the game a 5.5 out of 10, their reasons being the repetitive gameplay and the barebones online play. It also added that if the player didn't have Pokémon Diamond or Pearl for the DS, there wasn't as much to do. {{wp|Nintendo Power}} gave this game a 6.5 out of 10.

Currently the game has an average of 53% on both {{wp|Game Rankings}} and {{wp|Metacritic}}. <ref>http://www.gamerankings.com/wii/934033-pokemon-battle-revolution/index.html</ref><ref>http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/wii/pokemonbattlerevolution</ref>

As of October 27th 2008, the game has sold 1.32 million copies worldwide.<ref>http://www.vgchartz.com/games/index.php?name=Pokemon+Battle+Revolution</ref>

Despite this, in recent years this game has gained somewhat of a cult following, with many fans praising aspects such as the Pokémon models and the announcer.<ref>https://www.thegamer.com/best-nintendo-video-games-sold-poorly/</ref>

== About trainers ==

Whoever's adding trainers should note that the trainer battles are different for the first trip on the boat (when you get the Metal Coat, going to Vermilion City). Also, is there a way to get rid of the Pokegear Phone disclaimer, as it doesn't apply in this case? [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 04:17, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
:In that case, you should add it (unless you passed it already)... [[User:Ht14|''ht'']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 12:06, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
::Just close up the table with a <nowiki>|}</nowiki>, rather than the disclaimer. They don't get tougher, though? Ever? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 17:56, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
:::I battled them multiple times. They're the same Pokémon. There was the trainer with the {{p|Cloyster}}, {{p|Octillery}}, and their pre-evos, and I still remembered them as the same. I COULD check again for confirmation though. [[User:Ht14|''ht'']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 18:23, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
::::Besides, the footer is inaccurate. You can't use PokéGear here. We should get a regular footer that just closes the table... [[User:Ht14|''ht'']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 18:25, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

==question==

Hey, is it only me, or the S.S.Aqua Passengers cannot be rebattled? [[User:Piotr mil|Piotr mil]] 23:07, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
:I was about to point out the same thing. Or at least that's what I've found (in HGSS)--[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 17:21, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
::You took the ferry a second time and couldn't fight them again? Hmm...must be a HGSS change. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] 01:35, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
:::Yeah, that does seem to be the case. The only reason to take the SS Aqua after that in HGSS is to get the random plates--[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 14:50, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
:::Went on the Aqua again today, and none of the trainers will battle. So yeah, pretty sure that's the case--[[User:Oatzy|Oatzy]] 13:42, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
::Confirming this as well. Unless there was a way to 'reset' this by action or by time...? [[User:HechEff|HechEff]] 01:06, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
::This is the case for me too. I'm not really complaining though, since on the olivine-to-vermilion trip there's a trainer you can't avoid running right in front of to get to the captain for your plate and it's nice not to have to fight him again and again. --[[User:Toksyuryel|Toksyuryel]] 10:51, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
:::In SS on my second voyage (I can't remember the direction) I definitely got stopped for a battle by the sailor that you have to run past to get to the captain, and I entered one cabin and got battled there, so maybe it's just a time thing? My second voyage wasn't until after I had 15 or 16 badges, so there was plenty of time between them. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 18:34, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
::::The very first trip doesn't seem to count for the trainers, I had the same experience. Now though, he won't battle me anymore. It looks like you get three fights: the trainers on the first trip from olivine to vermilion, the trainers on the first return trip from vermilion to olivine, and the trainers on the first repeat trip from olivine to vermilion. After that, I don't think they'll fight you again. --[[User:Toksyuryel|Toksyuryel]] 22:33, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
:::::That's very unfortunate. Now it seems that the only reason to keep the S.S. Aqua ticket is to meet with Sabrina/Natsume. I still wonder why the developers made this travelling option redundant now... [[User:HechEff|HechEff]] 22:49, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
::::::And getting plates. --[[User:Toksyuryel|Toksyuryel]] 02:52, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
:::::::Yeah, they took the easiest way to earn money and experience. [[User:Piotr mil|Piotr mil]] 14:43, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
== Image switch ==

Under the "Items" section, we should have that style-switcher thing (like on Arceus' page) that changes the [[plate]] image every hour or so, because the plate changes randomly everyday. <sc>[[User:Takharii|Takharii]] ~ [[User talk:Takharii|Talk!]]</sc> 05:59, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
:According to {{DL|User talk:TTEchidna|Plates in HGSS|this}} it changes by index number. I've noted that and set the sprite to switch daily. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 06:38, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
::Thanks. Good job! [[User:Takharii|<sc>Takharii</sc>]] '''~''' [[User talk:Takharii|<sc>Talk!</sc>]] 06:45, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

==Map location==
Why don't we use the location isplayed by the map when viewed on the ship? It appears somewhere to the south between Johto and Kanto, below Routes 27 and 28. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:27, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

== Glitch? ==

In HGSS if your in a double battle between the 2 Pokéfans with 8 pokemon, would that be a glitch? (also, if something's wrong with this, it's my 1st time on Bulbapedia) [[User:7777822|7777822]] 22:43, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
:Each would only use the first three Pokémon in their party. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 09:24, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
::No, because what happens when you double battle them is that once you've fainted 6 Pokémon, the little Pokéballs will display that there's one pokemon left, and once you faint that, it will display that there is another pokemon left. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLFPQnWTpQQ [[User:7777822|7777822]] 01:43, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

== The lost Coin ==

A gentleman says he lost a coin on one leg of the trip, whereas another guy in the same room on the other leg says he found it. Im assuming this to be an easter egg or joke or something but I wanted to ask about it here first, before i go editing the page. Either way, I think its weird enough to warrant mention. [[User:PowerPlantRaichu|PowerPlantRaichu]] 06:42, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

== Little Girl Glitch ==

I went on the S.S. Aqua from Johto to Kanto, this is after my initial voyage, I nap in my cabin, the girl is missing again, so I go into the captain's room, he says the girl wants to play, but she's not there. I'm concerned that may have softlocked myself because saved the game before seeing this and I can't get off. I ended up having to use an action replay to walk through the sailor to get off.

:The OT name and ID numbers for a snagged Pokémon from either Colosseum or XD: Gale of Darkness work the same way as for the handheld games. The only real difference is that the OT name for such a Pokémon is always highlighted with male colors, since the Gamecube games only allow you to play as male characters and all NPC Pokémon gifts in those games come from males. The Pal Park listing says it came from a "distant land" (as opposed to saying it's from Orre), but why did they opt for that and not actually list the country of origin like it does for Hoenn and Kanto? --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 21:15, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

== Unlimited second chances to snag the Pokemon? ==

Various websites, people and Bulbapedia state that some of the snaggable Pokemon can have second chances if you happen to miss snagging them. I do know those include Bayleef, Quilava, Croconaw and Hitmontop if I recall correctly. I'm just wondering though, do all of the snaggable Pokemon offer second chances at snagging them, and if so, do they offer unlimited tries of snagging them if you happen to miss them the second time? I think this should be detailed whether or not that applies in this article... [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 00:47, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

:Yes, you do get unlimited chances to make the snag, and this applies to every single shadow Pokémon. Do note that some trainers relocate for different battles. For example, if you fail to snag from a [[Cipher Admin]] the first time, the second try is at [[Realgam Tower]]; fail there and you'll have to go to [[Deep Colosseum]] to make the snag, where you'll have as many attempts as you need as long as you can cycle through. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 02:53, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

::Well that's a relief. Think that should be noted in the article? Because all it ever states are those evolved forms of the Johto starters having second chances. [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 02:56, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

==Transferred Pokémon==
I'm new here and i thought it'd be worth mentioning; All pokemon transfered from ruby saphire or emerald to colosseum get a 50% xp bonus when killing a pokemon in coloddeum ;-) (i haven't posted it yet though) but it could go under the compatibility section i guess Greetz [[User:-Cipher-|-Cipher-]] 20:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)).
:New comments to the bottom of pages please. All Pokémon not from the same game get that bonus, whether they are traded from another handheld game or transferred from Colosseum. It's listed on the [[Experience]] page, and it deosn't really fit on here, given that the boost isn't exclusive to these Pokémon. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 20:51, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

::Sry and sry again as i can't create the indent on my blackberry =/(computer's broke)[NVM THAT, if the coding is standard then i know what to do ^^] and didn't know about that so thx for the info ^^, got anothher question though, but i don't know if it belongs here =(; howcome my latios (training it in colosseum) isn't learning the moves it should at the specific lvls where it should occur? ([[User:-Cipher-|-Cipher-]] 21:14, 26 July 2010 (UTC)).
:::Are you looking at the [[Latios (Pokémon)/Generation III learnset|Gen III learnset?]] They do change between generations, and Colosseum's a gen III game, so it's different from what you see on the Latios page (the Gen IV learnset). If it's not that then I don't know what it is. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 02:29, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

==Deoxys Formes==
From what I've seen, Deoxys only appears in its Normal Forme in Colosseum. I have a couple of questions, though:
*If it comes from a GBA game, do its stats stay the same? (E.g. A Deoxys from FireRed keeps Attack Forme's stats)
**If yes, is the Speed Forme compatible since Emerald came about a year after Colosseum?
*If it's traded to Colosseum, would its stats change to the Normal Forme's? (I think so, but want to make sure.) [[User:MagicBarrier|MagicBarrier]] 16:40, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

== Pokemon Colosseum Rerun ==

I have ''dug up'' my Gamecube and Pokemon Colosseum game, and I plan on playing it through again. However, this time I would like to gather up as much information as I possibly can while doing so. It seems that many of the articles on Colosseum are lacking a substantial amount of information, as opposed to the GB-line of games. This is the primary reason I am going to record everything I come by, whether I would be proof-reading what is already on Bulbapedia, or adding something for the first time.

I have looked through the current articles on Colosseum, many of these being mixed with XD (which I may get to after I am done with Colosseum), and I have figured that the most important topics to record are:
*Characters - to record information on all characters in the game, as in what they do, their importance, what they look like, and so on, as demonstrated by the [[:Category:Colosseum_characters|Colosseum Characters]] category.
*Locations - to record all locations, including cities/towns, and key areas, as demonstrated by the [[:Category:Colosseum_locations|Colosseum Locations]] category.
*Pokemon - to record all Pokemon available through normal means of finishing the game (e.g. snag-able Pokemon).
*Trainers - to record the names and locations of trainers, rewards they give, Pokemon they have, the moves these Pokemon have, and so on...
Is there anything else I should be looking for? I am not interested in the topics such as prizes that can be redeemed via Poké Coupons, for example - as these can easily be recorded after the game has already been completed. I would rather focus on collecting information on the topics that grow throughout the storyline, as they change while progressing through the game, and usually become irreversible in that sense. Locations may fall under the former category, but while immersed in the storyline of Pokemon Colosseum, I will be in a more appropriate mindset for writing up information on locations as the story flows along (it should be a good escape from the monotonous work of recording the more statistical data).

Does anyone have any comments, ideas, or anything at all to add? I would just like to get some opinions and whatnot so I can make this project as productive as possible. Thank you.

: IMO, It would be nice to put information about where and from whom each snaggable Pokémon is received into the list. And the purified moves; right now it's not obvious how to get to them. The type, on the other hand, is not that important. --[[User:En-Cu-Kou|[⁄⁄⁄] En‐Cu‐Kou]] 08:44, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

==Main series?==
Do Colosseum and XD qualify as main series games? I've seen them referred to as both, even within Bulbapedia, so I was wondering. (Or does this need to be on another talk page?) [[User:Ikarishipper900|Ikarishipper900]] 02:46, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
:We discussed this on the forums, and came to the conclusion that there are three groups of games: main series, side series, and spin-off. Colosseum classed as a side series game, and despite everyone agreeing, nothing was ever done about it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 02:31, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

== In Other Languages ==

This article is, oddly, missing its "In Other Languages" section. I would add it myself, but I don't have the time make one.

For the record, the Korean title is: {{tt|포켓몬 콜로세움|Pokémon Colosseum}}

(Although this game wasn't released in Korea, this is still its official name in Korean.) -- [[User:Nick15|Nick15]] 22:37, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
:Don't have to make the table by hand. Go to another article that has a "In Other Languages" section and copy the table. You can use that as a base for adding that to this one. Hope that helps. ''[[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen]] [[User talk:Frozen Fennec|Fennec]]'' 22:42, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

== Can you get more than one Ho-oh if you do Mt. Battle over again? ==

If you got Ho-oh after doing the Mt. Battle challenge in Battle Mode, can you do it again to get another Ho-oh? Do you have to trade the first Ho-oh to a game pack and do the challenge again to get the other Ho-oh? Has anyone ever done this before?
