'''Serena''' (Japanese: '''セレナ''' ''Serena'') is a {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}} who debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''. Her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] was a {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}} that she received from [[Professor Sycamore]].

==History==
[[File:Young Serena.png|thumb|left|250px|Young Serena]]
As a young child, Serena was sent to [[Kanto]], against her will, to attend a Pokémon Summer Camp, which was hosted by {{an|Professor Oak}}. One day, while at the camp, she got lost in a nearby forest and was startled by a {{p|Poliwag}}, falling over and hurting her knee. Then, she met [[Ash Ketchum]], who was looking for the same Poliwag and spotted Serena. Noticing her knee injury, he pulled out a handkerchief and wrapped it around her wounded knee, saying that it is a good-luck charm and that the pain would go away. However, when Serena's knee continued to hurt, Ash told her "Don't give up till its over" and helped her up before escorting her out of the forest. Afterwards, she returned to [[Kalos]], bringing along the handkerchief and the memory of her meeting with Ash.

Serena made her first onscreen appearance in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', where she was forcibly woken up by her {{kal|Grace|mother}}'s {{p|Fletchling}}. In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', she attempted to practice {{p|Rhyhorn}} racing after being encouraged by her mother, a famous Rhyhorn racer herself. However, Serena's attempts at controlling her mother's Rhyhorn ended with her being sent crashing into the ground.

Later that evening, Serena complained about her earlier practice leaving several scratches on her face. She sat down to watch a news report on an incident that was occurring in [[Lumiose City]]. On the screen, she saw Ash trying to calm down a rampaging {{p|Garchomp}} at Prism Tower and recognized Ash as a boy she had known in her childhood. The next day, while feeding Rhyhorn, Serena thought aloud that something interesting was going to happen and that it involved Ash.

She began her Pokémon journey in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'' when she set off to [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab in Lumiose City. Immediately upon arriving, Serena questioned the Professor about the boy on television and he confirmed that it was indeed Ash Ketchum. However, to Serena's disappointment, Ash had already left Lumiose City the previous day. Serena was then offered to choose her [[starter Pokémon]].

In ''[[XY004|A Shockingly Cheeky Friendship!]]'', Serena chose {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}}, received a [[Pokédex]], and started her journey. Later that day, she continued to travel with Fennekin, but didn't want to camp out for the night after seeing some wild {{p|Venipede}}. She was attacked by a wild {{p|Vespiquen}} that she mistook for a person, only for Fennekin to scare Vespiquen away. Afterward, Serena met a [[Nurse Joy]], who told her where to find the nearest Pokémon Center.

In ''[[XY005|A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle!]]'', she finally reached [[Santalune City]] and found Ash during his gym battle with [[Viola]]. She introduced herself to him, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}}, after returning his backpack when it was left behind at the Gym. At the end of the episode, she asks Ash if he remembers her, at which point the episode abruptly ends.

In ''[[XY006|Battling on Thin Ice!]]'', she revealed that the two of them met at the Pokémon Summer Camp when they were younger. Although Ash remembered the camp, he didn't specifically remember meeting Serena, much to her disappointment. Serena quickly regained her composure and reminded him that he once told her to never give up. Hearing these words helped Ash continue his training in order to win the rematch against Viola. During the rematch, Ash was visibly becoming overwhelmed by Viola's battling strategy, but Serena yelled at him to never give up. The inspiration that he had once given Serena was now being given to him, and these words encouraged him to continue the battle. At the end of the episode, after winning the Bug Badge, Ash asked Serena what her plans for the future were.

Serena officially began traveling with Ash and his friends in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]''. This was when Serena revealed why she began her journey in the first place. After seeing Ash on TV, she decided that she would begin a Pokémon journey in order to return the handkerchief he used to mend her knee injury. After she returned the handkerchief, Ash remembered their encounter and called her the "girl with the straw hat."

Later on, Serena helped teach Ash how to ride and race on a Rhyhorn when he expressed an interest in Rhyhorn racing. While doing so, Serena's opinion on Rhyhorn and Rhyhorn riding quickly changed when the Rhyhorn were very friendly towards her. Later, while she was helping Ash learn to ride, she called out similar words Serena's mother had yelled to her during her Rhyhorn riding lessons at home. At that moment, Serena realized that she had misjudged the sport of Rhyhorn racing and that perhaps she did not hate it as much as she thought. Serena expressed in the same episode that she did not dislike Rhyhorn racing but that she wanted to find a goal that she likes even more.

The next day, Ash was captured by {{TRT}} and Serena had to help rescue him. This was when Serena had her first Pokémon battle, commanding Fennekin to use {{m|Ember}} on the criminals. At the end of the episode, she gave Ash a pouch of cookies, saying it was her way of thanking him for all he had done for her.

In ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', Serena learned from Clemont's father, [[Meyer]], that Clemont is the Lumiose City [[Gym Leader]]. Although initially angry with Clemont for keeping this secret from her along with Ash, she helped take back the [[Gym]] from the malfunctioning [[Clembot]]. She battled [[Clemont's Magneton]] with her Fennekin, but it managed to avoid Fennekin's attack, forcing {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Froakie}} to step in and defeat it. Later, she watched Clemont battle and defeat Clembot for the control of the [[Lumiose Gym]].

In ''[[XY021|A PokéVision of Things to Come!]]'', Serena decided to make a [[PokéVision]] video. After watching some sample PokéVision videos in the Pokémon Center, Serena decided to make one of her own with her Fennekin. She rented a camera and began filming with Fennekin. The two of them dressed up in multiple outfits and the video featured them posing and baking together. However, during the filming of the video, Fennekin was captured by Team Rocket. Serena was able to rescue Fennekin, and in the process she remembered all that they had been through together. Her feelings of [[friendship]] were conveyed to her Pokémon, and Fennekin was able to learn {{m|Flamethrower}} in the battle against Team Rocket. After this event, Serena was able to finish her filming and was proud of her final product.

In ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', Serena participated in the [[Poké Puff Contest]], but she did not emerge victorious. Before the event, she met another competitor named [[Miette]]. The two of them compared their {{DL|Pokémon-Amie|Poké Puffs}} to see whose were superior, which led to a spark of rivalry between them. After comparing the two Poké Puffs, the group realized that Serena's Poké Puffs were more suited for [[human]]'s tastes than Pokémon's. This was part of the reason that Serena was not able to win the Poké Puff competition.

Serena had her first official Pokémon battle in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'' against [[Shauna]]. Shauna and her friends, [[Tierno]] and [[Trevor]], had seen the PokéVision video that Serena filmed in Lumiose City and recognized her from it. Serena accepted Shauna's challenge, and alongside Fennekin she faced off against Shauna and her {{p|Bulbasaur}}. Despite having a type advantage, Serena was unable to win. Serena talked with Shauna throughout the episode, and learned that Shauna was aiming to be someone who could put on performances with Pokémon. Her conversations with Shauna were a catalyst in helping her realize that she was the only one of her friends that didn't have a set goal. At the end of the episode, Serena sat alone brushing Fennekin's tail and wondering what her dream was.

In ''[[XY040|Day Three Blockbusters!]]'', Shauna informed Serena about [[Pokémon Showcase]]s and told her that she was planning on becoming a top-class {{DL|Pokémon Showcase|Pokémon Performer}}, and this inspired Serena to become one as well. In ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'', Serena witnessed her first official Pokémon Showcase. She saw a performance by {{an|Aria}}, the current Kalos Queen, and witnessed a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Pancham}} causing a ruckus on stage. Later, outside, the Pancham stole Ash and Clemont's belongings. Serena managed to track Pancham down and witnessed how it put on a performance with no one around. This made her realize Pancham loved performing and wanted to show this to everyone. With this in mind she announced to her friends she wanted to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. Battling with Fennekin, she managed to weaken and successfully catch it. After that, Serena gave Pancham a pair of her favorite sunglasses.

[[File:Serena Showcase debut.png|thumb|250px|Serena and Fennekin in their first Showcase]]
In ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]'', she met up with her mother, but at first didn't dare to tell her about her intention to be a Performer. Later, Serena finally told her mother about her dream and challenged her to a Rhyhorn race in order to prove her determination under the condition that if she lost she would go back home and train to become a Rhyhorn racer. However, her mother suggested that they race on {{p|Skiddo}}, knowing that Skiddo could sense the rider's feelings. Serena managed to beat her mother in the race when the Skiddo she was riding sensed her determination, and thus her mother gave her permission to become a Pokémon Performer.

In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', after helping her friends thwart {{TRT}}'s plot to crash the Pledging Tree festival and returning the stolen presents to their rightful owners, Serena gave a ribbon to Fennekin and new sunglasses to {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} in honor of the event. The group then found a present not addressed to a Pokémon, but to Serena herself. The present was a new dress for the upcoming Coumarine Showcase from her mother, care of Nurse Joy. At the end of the episode, Ash gave Serena the blue ribbon he had won in a giveaway from the Coumarine Monorail staff.

In ''[[XY060|A Showcase Debut!]]'', she made her debut as a Pokémon Performer in the [[Coumarine City]] Rookie Class [[Pokémon Showcase]], along with Shauna and Jessie. However, during the Theme Performance, Fennekin tripped over a bow that Serena had decorated her with. This eliminated her from the competition, and she watched as Shauna went on to win the Showcase. Although Serena first acted like she took the loss well, in private she was very upset. Early in the next morning, she walked out to a pier with Fennekin and Pancham, finally releasing her bottled up feelings and began to cry. Having comfort and reassurance from her two partners, she drew scissors from her bag and cut her hair to her shoulders after a reflection on her journey so far. Later, she donned a new outfit, featuring the ribbon she received from Ash, signifying her resolve.

==Character==
Serena has a love for fashion and [[clothing]]. An early example of this is in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', when she spent time carefully selecting an outfit, and was troubled over which of two hats looked best. Serena then asked her mother, who selected a beret. However, Serena promptly tossed the beret aside and picked up the other hat, saying that whatever her mother did not choose was certain to be the cuter one. Later, in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]'', Serena expressed excitement about visiting the clothing boutiques in [[Lumiose City]]. In ''[[XY021|A PokéVision of Things to Come!]]'', she was eager to dress up in many different outfits while making her [[PokéVision]] video.

Serena also seems to like baking and is quite skilled at it. An example of this was demonstrated in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]'', when she stayed up late at night to bake cookies for Ash and the gang, which they seemed to enjoy. Also, in ''[[XY010|Mega-Mega Meowth Madness!]]'', she had baked some macarons for the group, but they were stolen by a {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}}. In ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', she also participated in a [[Pokémon-Amie#Poké Puffs|Poké Puff]] baking competition.

In ''[[XY043|Origins of Mega Evolution!]]'', Serena showed that she knows how to dance, when she attempts to help Ash with his training. This is shown later when she decides to become a Pokémon Performer, where she choreographs the moves of both her Pokémon and herself.

Since the start of the series, Serena has proven to be a kind and polite girl. However, in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', she was openly rebellious towards her mother. She refused to wake up when her mother ordered her to, and gave a sassy response to her mother's call to watch the news. This tumultuous relationship was best demonstrated when Serena's mother made her practice {{p|Rhyhorn}} riding, which she had hated doing. However, their relationship is also very loving as shown in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]'' and ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]''.

Serena seems to have a sisterly bond with {{an|Bonnie}}, as she is shown caring for her similar to the way Clemont does, such as protecting her in dangerous situations, comforting her, and cheering her up when she is sad. She also allows her to help her with with various tasks, such as her baking and grooming of her Fennekin.

She gets along pretty well with {{an|Clemont}} also, and they are normally seen taking care of the table together during meal times, with Clemont making the main dishes while Serena provides dessert. However, when it comes to his inventions, Serena has shown both a bit of marvel as well as caution, due to the usual end result being an explosion.

Serena has shown a deep [[AmourShipping|admiration]] for {{Ash}}, having remembered how he found her when she was lost and alone in a forest when she was young, and how he kindly guided her out. After several years, she still recognized him after seeing him on television, when he rescued a rampaging {{p|Garchomp}} and later his {{AP|Pikachu}}. After picking her first Pokémon and starting her journey, her first order of business was to meet up with him, and return the handkerchief he once used to bandage her leg at the Pokémon Summer Camp all those years ago. Ash proved to be a source of inspiration for her with his never-give-up attitude and love for Pokémon.

While she genuinely cares for her {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}}, as well as the well-being of other Pokémon, Serena initially expressed little ambition towards becoming a full time [[Pokémon Trainer]]. In ''[[XY022|Going for the Gold!]]'', however, she did attempt to capture a {{p|Corsola}}, which she thought was cute, but was unsuccessful due to Fennekin's type disadvantage and Fennekin's unwillingness to fight.

During her debut, Serena was uncertain what paths or career to pursue in life. Although she possessed a diverse and well-rounded skill set, she was undecided about what best suits her. Fortunately, her travels with Ash, Bonnie, and Clemont afforded her a chance to find herself and explore her options. In ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'' Serena began to think that not having an established goal was a problem for her future as a Trainer. After losing her first official Pokémon battle at Summer Camp to [[Shauna]] and her {{p|Bulbasaur}}, and seeing how passionate the Trainers around her were, Serena began seriously considering what she wanted to do with herself and her Pokémon. In ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'', Serena decided that her goal was to be a top-class Pokémon Performer.

Since establishing her goal, Serena has been diligently training both herself and her Pokémon, which made it quite a shock when she lost in the first round of their [[XY060|first]] [[Pokémon Showcase]]. After the Showcase, Serena strengthened her resolve to do even better, and to symbolize this, she cut her hair short.

Evolution

2015-04-17T01:03:28Z

Ki: should the E in the preceding instance of the word "Evolution" but uppercase or lowercase?

{{samename|set in {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}}|Evolution (GB1)}}
[[File:Evotag.png|frame|right|{{p|Ivysaur}} evolving into {{p|Venusaur}}, depicted in {{game|Black and White|s}}]]
'''Evolution''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|進化|しんか}}''' ''evolution'') is a process in which a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} changes into a different species of Pokémon. This change is not merely physical, however, as Pokémon of a higher evolutionary stage have different (and usually more powerful) [[base stats]] than their predecessors, may have different [[move]]s that can be learned, and sometimes change their [[type]]s, though usually at least one of the types of the previous form is preserved. Other statistics, such as [[Nature]] and {{EV}}s, as well as {{shiny|shininess}}, are preserved. With respect to real-world phenomena, Pokémon Evolution is more similar to {{wp|metamorphosis}} than {{wp|evolution}}. Evolution also appears to be a mostly independent phenomena from the {{wp|aging}} process for most species, though [[Baby Pokémon]] need to evolve to their next stage in order to [[Pokémon Breeding|breed]].

[[Professor Elm]] and [[Professor Rowan]] are the leading experts in Pokémon Evolution. According to the latter's research, over 90% of all Pokémon are connected to at least one other through Evolution (this is true only if Legendary Pokémon are excluded.) Rowan is currently investigating whether Evolution is a form of maturity in Pokémon, and looking at the implications this process has on Legendary Pokémon, which don't evolve.

==Evolution families==
An evolution family is a group of Pokémon who will all, if bred with {{p|Ditto}} or a Pokémon in the same [[Egg Group]], make a Pokémon Egg that will hatch into the same Pokémon, excluding baby Pokémon. This also means that the most basic form has the potential to become any of the rest of the family, although it will ultimately be able to follow only one evolutionary path.

===Stages of evolution===
[[File:Piplup family anime.png|thumb|240px|right|Piplup evolution family in the anime]]
Pokémon can be divided into different evolutionary stages, based on where they appear in their evolution family. All Pokémon fall into one of four groups: [[baby Pokémon]], unevolved Pokémon, first-evolution Pokémon, and second-evolution Pokémon. These groups are also the basis for the {{Trading Card Game}}'s grouping of {{TCG|Baby Pokémon}}, {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}}, {{TCG|Stage 1 Pokémon}}, and {{TCG|Stage 2 Pokémon}}, respectively.

Due to the fact that no evolution family contains both a baby Pokémon and a second-evolution Pokémon, many regard baby Pokémon as the most basic form, while moving their evolved counterparts one level higher. For example, originally, {{p|Pikachu}} was regarded as an unevolved Pokémon, however, with the release of {{p|Pichu}} in [[Generation II]], many now consider it to be more on par with Pokémon like {{p|Charmeleon}}, though its TCG classification remains the same.

====Two-evolution families====
{{main|:category:Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line|Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line}}
Perhaps the most well-known types of evolution families are those that feature two separate evolutionary events in the Pokémon's development. Indeed, this type of evolution family is what all of the [[starter Pokémon]] in the [[core series]] are a part of (excluding the starter {{p|Pikachu}} in {{game|Yellow}}, as {{p|Pichu}} did not yet exist and it could not be evolved into {{p|Raichu}}; and {{p|Eevee}}, which could only be taken by {{ga|Blue}}), as well as all [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]]. An example of this type of evolution family is below.

====One-evolution families====
{{main|:category:Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line}}
By far the most common type of evolution family, these families are based in a Pokémon that will only ever evolve once in its development. About one third of all Pokémon that would later get a baby form were part of this kind of evolution family before their baby form was revealed. An example of this type of evolution family is below.

====Pokémon that do not evolve====
{{main|List of Pokémon that are not part of an evolutionary line}}
The least common type of evolution family is that in which no evolutionary event takes place, meaning that it is made up of only one member. Many of the Pokémon that have no evolutionary relatives are [[Legendary Pokémon]]. However, there are still 61 other Pokémon that do not evolve. Below is a list of all non-Legendary Pokémon that do not evolve ({{p|Phione}} is not included due to its status as a Legendary being disputed).

Not belonging to an evolutionary family is not indicative of strength, or a lack thereof. Some Pokémon, such as {{p|Heracross}} and {{p|Skarmory}}, are comparable to fully evolved Pokémon while others, like {{p|Delibird}} and {{p|Luvdisc}}, are more comparable to unevolved Pokémon. Often this indicates a Pokémon's possibility to be eligible for future [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|new evolutions]] or [[baby Pokémon|pre-evolutions]].

====Branch evolution families====
{{main|List of Pokémon with branched evolutions}}
Several families, while also one- and two-evolution families, are also branch evolution families. What this means is that there is a split in the evolutionary line at some point so that even though two Pokémon of the same species evolve the same amount of times, they can become one of two or more entirely different creatures. {{p|Eevee}} is the best-known example of this, evolving eight different ways depending on the method used. An example of this type of evolution family is below.

=====Advantages=====
A major difference between the final forms of an evolution family with a branch in evolution is in the way that their [[base stats]] line up. For example, {{p|Kirlia}} can evolve into both {{p|Gardevoir}} and {{p|Gallade}}, which both have 518 total base stats. However, Gallade's base stat in {{stat|Attack}} is 125 and its base stat in {{stat|Special Attack}} is 65. The reverse is true for Gardevoir, whose Special Attack is 125 and whose Attack is 65. This is true of many opposing evolutions, with one focusing in one specific stat, the other focusing in a separate stat, and both having the same total stats. This is especially obvious in the [[Eeveelution]]s, who each have exactly the same base stats, though organized differently.

A listing of the stat focuses is below.

==Methods of evolution==
{{main|Methods of evolution}}
The various triggers for a Pokémon's evolution are almost as varied as the Pokémon themselves, and some Pokémon have a unique evolution method. The most common of them is Evolution by leveling up at or above a certain level. Other methods include the following:
*leveling up when [[friendship]] has reached {{tt|a high level|a friendship of 220 or greater}}
*leveling up while holding an item
*leveling up while knowing a certain move or a move of a certain type
*leveling up in a certain location
*[[trade|trading]] the Pokémon
*trading the Pokémon while [[evolution-inducing held item|holding an item]]
*trading the [[Karrablast (Pokémon)|Pokémon]] for specific [[Shelmet (Pokémon)|Pokémon]]
*using an [[evolutionary stone]] on it
*leveling up with a certain Pokémon or Pokémon of a certain type in the party
*leveling up while the [[3DS]] is upside-down
*level up or high friendship based on [[Time|time of day]]
*level up a [[Sliggoo (Pokémon)|Pokémon]] during certain [[weather conditions]].
Additionally, holding an {{evostone|Everstone}} prevents a Pokémon from evolving, as well as surprising a Pokémon via the B Button. The latter method is known as an "Evolution cancel".

Pokémon that get [[Fainting|knocked out]] during a {{pkmn|battle}} will evolve at the end of that battle if its requirements have been met. However, before [[Generation VI]], losing a battle would make Pokémon not evolve even if the conditions have been met.

Pokémon that can evolve into more than one Pokémon will usually have the ways in which the evolution is activated being slightly similar, such as having both being initiated by [[evolutionary stone]] or by trading while [[held item|holding an item]]. Closely-related Pokémon, such as {{p|Nidoran♀}} and {{p|Nidoran♂}}, will also have very similar, if not identical, evolution methods.

Some Pokémon have different evolutions depending on their gender. For example, only female {{p|Combee}} can evolve into {{p|Vespiquen}}; male Combee cannot evolve at all. Meanwhile, all {{p|Snorunt}} can evolve into {{p|Glalie}}, but females ones have the option of evolving into {{p|Froslass}} instead. This instance occurs in a similar way with {{p|Kirlia}}, albeit with males having split evolution instead.

Also, there have been situations in which the current party must be configured in a specific manner for some Pokémon to evolve. So far, only three Pokémon need to have these special requirements. {{p|Mantyke}} will evolve into {{p|Mantine}} if leveled up with a {{p|Remoraid}} in the player's party. {{p|Nincada}} will evolve into {{p|Ninjask}} when it reaches level 20. However, if there happens to be an empty space in the player's party (and a spare [[Poké Ball]] in Generation IV onward), a {{p|Shedinja}} will also appear in the party. {{p|Pancham}} evolves into {{p|Pangoro}} if its level is 32 or higher and there is a Dark-type Pokémon in the player's party.

Some Pokémon evolve in other unique ways. If one trades a {{p|Karrablast}} for a {{p|Shelmet}}, they will evolve into {{p|Escavalier}} and {{p|Accelgor}}, respectively, though neither will evolve if one of them holds an {{evostone|Everstone}}. When {{p|Inkay}} reaches level 30, the player must hold the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] upside-down for it to evolve into {{p|Malamar}}. Also introduced was a weather-based evolution: {{p|Sliggoo}} will evolve into {{p|Goodra}} beginning at level 50 only if it is [[rain]]ing in the area that the player is in. Finally, {{p|Sylveon}} can only be obtained be leveling up an {{p|Eevee}} that knows any {{type|Fairy}} moves and has at least two hearts of affection in [[Pokémon-Amie]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Slowking evolution anime.png|thumb|right|{{p|Slowpoke}} and {{p|Shellder}} evolving into {{p|Slowking}} in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'']]
[[File:Kakuna evolution anime.png|thumb|200px|left|{{p|Kakuna}} evolving into {{p|Beedrill}} in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'']]
[[File:Shelmet evolution Best Wishes.png|thumb|200px|right|Evolution in the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]
In the anime, Evolution happens in much the same way as it does in the games; though [[level]]-based evolutions and [[trade]]-based evolutions do not occur using those methods, there are similarities in the way they come about. For example, {{an|Misty}}'s {{p|Poliwhirl}} evolved into {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} because it found {{Ash}}'s {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} and was holding it when Misty sent it out, while in the games it is required that Poliwhirl be traded while holding the King's Rock for the evolution to take place (It should be noted that Poliwhirl had been through a machine in connection with it being healed at the Pokémon Center, while holding the item). When a {{p|Beedrill}} attacked Ash's {{p|Metapod}}, it caused a crack to appear on its shell, which {{AP|Butterfree}} came out of.

Additionally, a difference can be seen in the fact that Pokémon evolve ''during'' a battle, as opposed to after it. Pokémon may also evolve when they are needed to, for an extra boost of power, instead of after a set amount of training, such as when Ash's {{p|Charmeleon}} evolved into {{AP|Charizard}}. In addition, Pokémon can sometimes choose not to evolve, even if they evolve by a 'natural' method such as leveling up. It appears that Evolution has emotional implications for Pokémon - some Pokémon, such as Team Rocket's {{MTR}}, dislike their evolved forms, while others such as Ash's {{AP|Pikachu}} simply want to prove they can be powerful without evolving. Conversely, when Pokémon do evolve, this can often be linked with an experience that causes them to mature emotionally or deal with an emotional issue, such as when the {{p|Poochyena}} in ''[[AG011|A Bite to Remember]]'' evolved, or the {{p|Paras}} in ''[[EP044|The Problem With Paras]]''. Poochyena, for some reason, had an aversion to using the move {{m|Bite}}, while Paras was extremely timid and weak in battle. Both of them evolved shortly after overcoming these issues.

For a list of all evolutions that Pokémon belonging to the main cast have undergone, see [[List of anime Pokémon by evolution]].

==In the TCG==
'''Evolution''' in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] is very similar in some aspects to its counterpart in the [[core series]]. However, it differs mostly in the fact that there are no different methods needed to evolve a Pokémon, but instead, all Pokémon evolve simply by placing the next stage on top of a Pokémon in play that it evolves into.

Pokémon cannot be evolved on the first turn of the game or on the first turn they come into play. They also cannot be evolved if on the same turn they were previously evolved or devolved.

===Stages of evolution===
There are four different stages of evolution in the TCG, Baby Pokémon, Basic Pokémon, Stage 1 Pokémon, and Stage 2 Pokémon. Of these, only Baby and Basic Pokémon may be placed onto the Bench during the setup phase and during play; Stage 1 and Stage 2 Pokémon are considered to be evolution cards and therefore unable to be played except on top of their corresponding pre-evolved forms. The stage of evolution is indicated in a conspicuous place on each and every Pokémon card, though the placement differs among the four generations of cards.

Within the deck and discard pile, only Stage 1 and Stage 2 cards are considered to be "evolution cards" for the purpose of a Trainer card or Pokémon Power which allows them to be searched for. In play, a Basic Pokémon card can be considered an evolution card if it is evolved from its Baby stage.

====Baby Pokémon====
{{main|Baby Pokémon#In the TCG|Baby Pokémon}}
A Baby Pokémon is much the same in the TCG as it is in the core series of games. In fact, as with baby Pokémon released beyond [[Generation II]], it is not even necessary for a Pokémon to even go through this stage of their evolutionary line, as the Pokémon can just start from their basic form. Baby Pokémon are among the weakest in the TCG, most often having 30 HP, as well as one of two special {{TCG|Poké-Body}}s: one prevents all damage done to the Baby Pokémon while it is Asleep (Baby Pokémon with this Poké-Body also usually have an attack that changes their status to Asleep), and the other forces a Pokémon attempting to attack the Baby Pokémon to flip a coin, the attack doing nothing if that coin ends up tails.

====Basic Pokémon====
A Basic Pokémon is the most basic of Pokémon cards, as can be deduced from its name. Commonly basic Pokémon will have low HP, a common rarity, and low damage and {{TCG|Energy card|Energy}} costs. These cards can be placed directly into play without another Pokémon card needing to be in play first. Pokémon that evolve from a Pokémon released in a later generation, such as {{p|Electabuzz}} or {{p|Pikachu}}, always are basic Pokémon, despite being the second Pokémon in their own evolutionary lines. Baby Pokémon, {{TCG|Shining Pokémon}}, {{TCG|Pokémon ☆|Pokémon}} {{Star}}, and {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} are always Basic, the latter three cannot evolve.

====Stage 1 Pokémon====
A Stage 1 Pokémon are the first kind of evolution card, being able to be evolved from a Basic Pokémon. Stage 1 cards are most commonly uncommon in rarity. Stage 1 Pokémon are also able to be {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Light Pokémon}}.

====Stage 2 Pokémon====
A Stage 2 Pokémon is the highest of evolution cards, commonly rare or holographic in rarity, and can only, in normal conditions, be evolved from a Stage 1 Pokémon. Stage 2 Pokémon are also able to be {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Light Pokémon}}.

====Mega Evolution====
{{main|Mega Evolution#In the TCG|Mega Evolution}}
M Pokémon-EX cards were introduced in {{TCG|XY}} [[#Expansion|expansion]] and introduce the '''Mega Evolution''' mechanic featured in [[Pokémon X and Y]]. They are identified by a stylized {{Mega}} graphic on the card name. M Pokémon-EX can only be played by Mega Evolving from basic {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}}. Doing so ends a players {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Turn}} immediately. Other than this, M Pokémon-EX share the same rules and design as regular Pokémon-EX and evolving Pokémon, with the addition of boosted {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Hit Points}} and more powerful {{DL|Glossary (TCG)|Attack}}s.

===Ability to evolve===
A Pokémon card that is in the player's hand must say specifically that it evolves from a Pokémon card that is in play on the player's side. For example, {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Dark Blastoise|3}} states on the card "'''Evolves from Dark Wartortle'''". This means that any card named Dark Wartortle may be evolved into Dark Blastoise. However, a card simply named Wartortle cannot. Likewise, Pokémon such as {{TCG ID|EX Emerald|Rhyhorn|62}} cannot be evolved into a Pokémon that says on it "'''Evolves from Team Magma's Rhyhorn'''".

However, Pokémon cards from different sets may evolve into one another. For example, {{TCG ID|Neo Destiny|Dark Crobat|2}} can evolve from either {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Dark Golbat|7}} of the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} set or {{TCG ID|EX Team Rocket Returns|Dark Golbat|34}} of the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} set. So long as the card names match precisely both TO (here Dark Crobat) and FROM (here Dark Golbat), the evolution is legal. This rule, of course, can be circumvented by certain means, such as {{TCG|Pokémon Power}}s and {{TCG|Trainer card}}s, however, this is not common.

==In relation to the real world==
Evolution in Pokémon, for most species, is more akin to {{wp|metamorphosis}} than to {{wp|evolution|actual evolution}}. This is because real life evolution happens to a population rather than to individuals, and happens over much larger time scales than in the Pokémon world. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, it is mentioned that Pokémon Evolution is an entirely separate phenomenon from the normal process of evolution, and is a mysterious ability exclusive to Pokémon that is still not fully understood.

==Trivia==
*{{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Feebas}} are the only two Pokémon that reach their next evolutionary forms in multiple ways. Whereas in the handheld games, Eevee becomes {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} with high [[friendship]] when leveled up depending on the [[time]] of day, in {{Pokémon XD}} it evolves when raised a level when the [[Sun Shard]] or [[Moon Shard]] is in the [[bag]]. This is because Pokémon XD, like {{g|Colosseum}} and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, lacks a time function. Feebas, meanwhile, evolves into {{p|Milotic}} when its [[Beautiful (condition)|Beauty condition]] is high, which cannot be done in the [[Generation V]] games or {{game|X and Y}} unless the Feebas had its Beauty condition raised in [[Generation III]], [[Generation IV]], or [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] previously. Due to this, the {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Prism Scale}} was introduced, so that Feebas caught in the wild or bred in [[Generation V]] onward would be able to evolve freely.

'''Misdreavus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムウマ''' ''Muma'') is a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Mismagius}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Dusk Stone}}.

==Biology==
Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like Pokémon. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has several round, red gems around its neck, which are used to absorb fear as nourishment. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large eyes have yellow sclera with red irises.

Misdreavus lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|caves}}. As a [[nocturnal]] Pokémon, it spends its days sleeping in darkness and its nights startling people with mischievous tricks. Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek. Previously, it was the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that could learn {{m|Pain Split}} by level up.

==In the anime==
[[File:Zoey Misdreavus.png|thumb|220px|left|Misdreavus in the anime]]

==Trivia==
* Misdreavus's [[The Legend of Thunder!|first]] [[EP259|two]] {{pkmn|anime}} appearances both involved [[Legendary beasts]] ({{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}).
* Misdreavus can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Murkrow}}. Both are {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} whose [[evolution]] utilizes a {{evostone|Dusk Stone}}, and their evolved forms were both introduced in [[Generation IV]]. Misdreavus is exclusive to {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}, and {{game3|Black and White|White|s}} while {{p|Murkrow}} is exclusive to FireRed, Diamond, and Black.
* Misdreavus is listed after Murkrow in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]], but its evolution, {{p|Mismagius}}, comes ''before'' Murkrow's evolution, {{p|Honchkrow}}.

===Origin===
Misdreavus' nocturnal habits of wailing to frighten people and its similarity in appearance to a disembodied head are shared by various mythological creatures. One of these is the {{wp|Rokurokubi#Rokurokubi whose heads come off (nukekubi)|nukekubi}}, which shares the similarities of nocturnal habits, flying about as a decapitated head, and wailing to increase its victims' fright. Another possible origin is the {{wp|banshee}}, a female spirit from Gaelic folklore who was known for its unearthly wailing and screaming. It is also possible that it was based on a {{wp|Lang Suir}}, a type of vampire in Malaysian mythology known to appear as a flying decapitated head of a woman.

====Name origin====
Misdreavus is a corruption of ''mischievous''. It may also incorporate ''mistress'', ''miscreant'' (since it scares people), ''dream'', ''dread'', ''dreary'', and ''reave'' (to rob).

Muma may be a corruption of 夢魔 ''muma'' (''nightmare'' or a demon in a dream).

'''Trick-or-Treat''' (Japanese: '''ハロウィン''' ''Halloween'') is a non-damaging {{type|Ghost}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. It is the [[signature move]] of {{p|Pumpkaboo}} and {{p|Gourgeist}}.

==Effect==
Trick-or-Treat adds the {{t|Ghost}} type to the target, in addition to the Pokémon's original type(s). If it is used against a dual-type Pokémon, that Pokémon will have three types at once. If the target already has an additional type added to it by {{m|Forest's Curse}}, that type is replaced with the Ghost type.

Trick-or-Treat will fail if the target Pokémon is already Ghost-type.

==Description==
{{movedesc|Ghost}}
{{movedescentry|{{gameabbrev3|XY}}{{gameabbrev3|ORAS}}|The user takes the target trick-or-treating. This adds {{t|Ghost}} type to the target's type.}}

{{Movefooter|Ghost|6}}

==Trivia==
* Using Trick-or-Treat on a pure {{type|Normal}} Pokémon is the only way for a Pokémon to have a sole weakness to the {{t|Dark}} type.
* Unlike [[Forest's Curse]], a Pokémon affected by this move cannot have an 8x weakness, as the Ghost type is only weak to two types.

What episode was he in?

:He was in [[AG017|''Stairway to Devon'']].--[[User:Blizzard|Blizzard]] 02:45, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

==TCG problem==
I dont see any refrence to Mr. stone in ex sandstorm. {{unsigned|Look-a-troopa}}

== Page Move ==

I personally support the page move proposal, as his son, Steven Stone, has his full name as the article. A redirect from Mr. Stone would allow all of those unaware of his first name to still find him. [[User:Nairbnroh|Nairbnroh]] ([[User talk:Nairbnroh|talk]]) 09:07, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
:I would say it's mostly pointless, after all, he ''is'' referred to as "Mr. Stone" throughout the whole article. Also, the inclusion of Steven's ''last name'' is what makes his article title different from most in-game characters, so it's somewhat unrelated to the issue of Mr. Stone, who's ''first name'' is what we're debating about. --[[User:Ki|'''K'''i]][[User talk:Ki|♢]] 18:52, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

I was gonna add Volcanion and Hoopa, but Bulbapedia hasn't acknowledged them whatsoever, so I'll add them in when they actually have Bulbapedia articles. Also, if anyone sees this and notices any inaccuracies, please tell me.

Ice (type)

Ki: /* Trivia */

{{types}}
The '''Ice type''' (Japanese: '''こおりタイプ''' ''Ice type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Ice-type Pokémon are [[Lorelei]] of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]], [[Pryce]] of [[Mahogany Town]], [[Glacia]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, [[Candice]] of [[Snowpoint City]], [[Brycen]] of [[Icirrus City]], and [[Wulfric]] of [[Snowbelle City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Ice-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

===Generation II onwards===
Ice-type Pokémon are immune to {{weather|Hail}} weather damage.

Starting in [[Generation IV]], Ice-type Pokémon are immune to the {{status|Frozen}} [[status condition]].

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
The Ice type is considered by many to be the worst of all types defensively. It only resists itself and is immune to [[Freeze (status ailment)|freezing]], while carrying weaknesses to {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Steel}}, making it weak to moves such as {{m|Stealth Rock}}, {{m|Bullet Punch}} and {{m|Fire Blast}}. Their sole resistance is nullified by {{p|Swinub|the}} {{p|Piloswine|Swinub}} {{p|Mamoswine|line's}} {{t|Ground}}, {{p|Articuno}}'s and {{p|Delibird}}'s {{t|Flying}}, {{p|Snover|The}} {{p|Abomasnow|Snover}} line's {{t|Grass}}, and {{p|Kyurem}}'s Dragon. Even with a second type, all but two Ice-type Pokémon—{{p|Froslass}} and {{p|Rotom|Frost Rotom}}—have more weaknesses than resistances and immunities, and certain Ice-type Pokémon such as Articuno, Delibird, the Snover line, and the Amaura line have at least one double weakness.

===Offense===
Offensive-wise, because only two non-Ice types ({{p|Empoleon}} and {{p|Heatran}}, which are both {{t|Steel}} types), doubly resist Ice, and the fact that double weaknesses to Ice are fairly common (largely due to {{t|Dragon}} types, whose final forms are often doubly weak), Ice is, along with {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Fire}}, one of the most commonly used attacking types. Ice also pairs well with other common attacking types, notably {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Electric}}. {{type|Water}} Pokémon can also effectively use Ice attacks, which cover their major weakness of {{t|Grass}}, as well as {{t|Dragon}}, which resists their moves.

Similarly, an Ice-type Pokémon can often use {{type|Water}} moves, which covers their weakness of Fire and Rock.

===Contest properties===
When used in Contests, Ice-type moves become {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves, while only a single move is regarded as a {{OBP|Cool|condition}} move.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 35 Ice-type Pokémon or 4.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the second-rarest type, behind {{t|Ghost}}.

==Trivia==
* Generation V introduced the most Ice-type Pokémon of any generation, with {{tt|eight|including Frost Rotom}}, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ice-type Pokémon, with four.
* Generation I introduced the most Ice-type moves of any generation, with six, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ice-type moves, with only {{m|Freeze-Dry|one}}.
* Although the Ice type existed since Generation I, pure Ice-type Pokémon were not introduced until [[Generation III]].
** The {{p|Kyurem|only dual-type Ice-type}} Pokémon introduced in Generation V was a [[Legendary Pokémon]].
* In [[Generation III]], all Ice-type moves were {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves.
* Only the {{t|Normal}} type has a lower number of resistances than the Ice type, having no resistances (but one immunity). Ice only resists itself.
* There has been a [[Gym Leader]] or [[Elite Four]] member who specializes in the Ice type introduced in each generation. Three of the Ice-type [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Pryce]], [[Candice]], and [[Brycen]], are the seventh Gym Leaders in their respective region. [[Wulfric]] is the exception, being the eighth in his region.
* Ice is the only type that is super effective against the {{t|Flying}} type that does not in turn resist Flying-type moves.
* Ice-type attacks are resisted by all types that {{type|Water}} Pokémon resist.
* No Ice-type status moves change stats other than reverting changes and changing weather.

Water (type)

2014-12-18T22:32:28Z

Ki: /* Trivia */ If you're going to list them, list them all. There are a lot, though, so it's best to just not list any.

{{Types}}
The '''Water type''' (Japanese: '''みずタイプ''' ''Water type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in the Water type include [[Misty]] of [[Cerulean City]], [[Wallace]] and [[Juan]] of [[Sootopolis City]], [[Crasher Wake]] of [[Pastoria City]], [[Cress]] of [[Striaton City]], [[Marlon]] of [[Humilau City]], and [[Siebold]] of the [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Water-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

}}

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, the Water type is very strong when combined with high defensive stats. As every Water type, with the exception of {{p|Magikarp}} (and {{p|Rotom}} in its Wash form), can use {{type|Ice}} moves to counter {{t|Grass}} types (although Magikarp can learn one {{type|Flying}} move, {{m|Bounce}}, which can also counter Grass types), {{t|Electric}} types are the only true threat to Water types. That is not the case if the Pokémon in question have Abilities or subtypes that neutralize or nullifies this weakness. {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Swampert}}, {{p|Whiscash}}, {{p|Gastrodon}}, and {{p|Seismitoad}} are all immune, via their secondary type, Ground. Others, such as the {{p|Lanturn}} evolutionary line (which are also immune if they have the ability {{a|Volt Absorb}}), the {{p|Ludicolo}} evolutionary line, and {{p|Palkia}} have subtypes that are resistant to Electric.

Water types often have the most balanced attributes, usually coming with decent {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}} stats, but below average {{stat|Speed}}.

===Offense===
The Water type is also useful offensively. Water-type Pokémon can learn {{m|Ice Beam}} or {{m|Ice Punch}} to deal with {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Grass}} types, which would make their resistance to Water-type attacks irrelevant. It can be extremely useful to be super-effective against {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Rock}} types when traveling through [[cave]]s, etc. As a result of these advantages, as well as having to get through water routes using {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and even {{m|Whirlpool}} or {{m|Dive}}, most Trainers usually have at least one Water type in their [[party]]. Also, double weaknesses to Water are fairly common (largely due to the common Rock/Ground typing) while {{p|Kingdra|there}} {{p|Lotad|are}} {{p|Lombre|only}} {{p|Ludicolo|five}} {{p|Palkia|Pokémon}} that have a double resistance to Water (all of which are Water types themselves).

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Water-type moves are typically {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves. But they can be from any other Contest type.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 124 Water-type Pokémon or 16.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the most common of the eighteen types.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with Water-type===
When it is raining, {{a|Forecast}} will transform the user into Water-type. User of {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into Water-type after it is hit with a Water-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into Water-type when it uses a Water-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds a [[Splash Plate]], it will become a Water-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Water-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and turn into Water-type.

Steel (type)

----
{{types}}
The '''Steel type''' (Japanese: '''はがねタイプ''' ''Steel type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Steel-type Pokémon are [[Jasmine]] of [[Olivine City]]; [[Steven Stone]], {{pkmn|Champion}} of [[Hoenn]]; [[Byron]] of [[Canalave City]]; and [[Wikstrom]] of the [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Steel-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

The Steel type was introduced in [[Generation II]]. As well as introducing new Pokémon with the Steel type, {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} were changed to be dual-type {{t|Electric}}/Steel Pokémon.

==Battle properties==
===Generations II to V===
Steel-type Pokémon are immune to the {{status|poisoned|poisoned and badly poisoned}} conditions.

In Generation II only, Steel-type Pokémon can be poisoned by the {{t|Bug}} move {{m|Twineedle}}.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, Steel types are considered to be one of the best types of Pokémon to use. Until Generation VI, pure steel Pokémon had resistances to 11 of the 17 types, which can make for a good physical and special {{DL|Appendix:Metagame terminology|tank}} in battle. Since Generation VI, that number has decreased to 10 out of the now 18 types. Steel types also have an immunity to {{type|Poison}} attacks and cannot be {{status|poison}}ed (except when using {{m|Twineedle}} in Generation II or if poisoned while not Steel-type). They can hold up to many attacks, because of their typically high Defense.

However, all three of the Steel type's weaknesses—{{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fire}}—are very common and popular types. This makes it weak to common moves of those types, including the extremely common {{m|Earthquake}}. Fortunately, most Steel types are dual types, which defends usually against one of these types; however, it is possible for dual-type Steel Pokémon to develop double weaknesses to some of these moves.

Pokémon purely of the Steel type have the 2nd greatest amount of resistances in the game. {{p|Magnemite}}, {{p|Magneton}}, and {{p|Magnezone}}, being Steel and {{t|Electric}}, are the most resistant Pokémon in the game, having 11 resistances plus an immunity to Poison. The added Electric type means these Pokémon are also resistant to Electric moves, and have a double resistance to {{t|Flying}} and Steel moves. However, they also have a double weakness to {{type|Ground}} moves (though this can be negated with the move {{m|Magnet Rise}}, giving them a second immunity).

===Offense===
Offensively, it is only recommended that Steel-type moves be used for STAB or for hitting {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon super effectively. There are only three types weak to Steel: {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Fairy}}, the prior two of which are rarely used defensively. Furthermore, the types that do resist Steel — {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Water}} and itself — are very common. There are only five pure Steel-type Pokémon; thus, most have a second type able to provide more effective moves that could offset this disadvantage. Steel-type Pokémon typically have good Attack and below-average Special Attack, though there are some high-powered outliers in either the Physical or Special fields, with a handful in both categories. Said outliers are used often, so STAB on Steel-type moves can prove valuable. All in all, Steel can be a useful type offensively if combined with STAB, paired with another type for support and boosted by a high base total of at least one of the attacking stats.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Steel-type moves are typically {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 43 Steel-type Pokémon or 5.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 5th rarest type.

==Trivia==
* Generation V introduced the most Steel-type Pokémon of any generation (minus Generation I), with 12, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Steel-type Pokémon, with four.
* Generation IV introduced the most Steel-type moves of any generation (minus Generation I), with seven, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Steel-type moves, with only {{m|King's Shield|one}}.
* Out of all the types, Steel has the most resistances and the highest average {{stat|Defense}}.
* In Generation II, the Steel type saw one type change in a Pokémon family ({{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}}), but no change in moves. The opposite is true for the {{t|Dark}} type, which saw one type change in a move ({{m|Bite}}), but no change in a Pokémon.
* All Steel-type moves affect only one Pokémon at a time. Similarly, it is the only type to lack a move that functions differently in [[Double Battle]]s.
* Prior to Generation VI, Steel was the only type that didn't have a neutral type match-up with any of the seventeen existing types, considering both the offense and defense of both types. In Generation VI, it was changed so it no longer resisted Dark- or Ghost-type moves.
* Each of the three starter types have a different effectiveness when attacking a pure Steel-type Pokémon. Grass does ½× damage, Water does 1× damage, and Fire does 2× damage.
* A pure Steel-type Pokémon has more resistances than any dual-type Pokémon that is not part Steel.

== Jigglypuff's Final Smash ==
Okay, in the article Jiggly's Final Smash is called ''Grow''. Though it hasn't been confirmed, Serebii and a few other sites say that it's called '''Puff Up'''. Whose correct? I saw we should just call it the Japanese name until it is revealed. --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User talk:Theryguy512|5]][[User:Theryguy512/Contribution Page|1]][[User:Theryguy512/Similarities|2]]''' 20:25, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
:"Ookikunaru" means, literally, "become large".--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 20:33, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
::Also, Serebii has a bit of a history with BSing translations so they "sound cooler." Other websites will also promptly start using those translations because ''Serebii'' did them...so I'd say don't trust them in this regard...--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 20:34, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
:::Yes, but until it has been offically revealed by Smash Bros. Dojo, it should be kept as the Japanese name. --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User talk:Theryguy512|5]][[User:Theryguy512/Contribution Page|1]][[User:Theryguy512/Similarities|2]]''' 21:20, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
::::Fine, just use the the macron. Ōkikunaru, not Ookikunaru.--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 21:24, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

I heard it was '''inflate'''...
{{ani|448}}[[User:Crystallucario|'''''Crystal''''']] [[User talk:Crystallucario|'''''Lucario''''']]{{ani|448}} 21:27, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
:thats what i heard too. i dont think well know for sure untill they update the Dojo. '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 21:35, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

==Kamehameha Wave?==
I've watched my share of DBZ, and every time someone's used the Kamehameha wave it was a '''ball''' of energy, not a beam. Could someone please explain how it looks like the Kamehameha wave? [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 16:19, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
:The Kamehameha is formed as a ball, yes, but it's then fired as a beam. I don't know if Lucario is directly based on Dragon Ball itself, but there's definitely a similarity to the style, which DB created and/or popularised. [[User:Capsule Computer|Capsule Computer]] 13:21, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

== Triple Finish ==

I think I may have found the inspiration for Triple Finish...

In the FireRed/LeafGreen chapter of Pokemon Special, Red, Blue, and Green have their Pokemon combine Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn, and Hydro Cannon into a single blast, just like Triple Finish. [[User:Reign|Reign]] 04:20, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

:Not only that, in the Emerald chapter they all use Triple Finish, and call it that. But that might have been the translation I read, dunno if they call it triple finish in the original.
Also is it confirmed that the attacks are Fire Blast, Solar Beam and Hydro Pump? I don't remember it saying what they are in brawl, they could easily be Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn and Hydro Cannon. It might on a trophy or something though. But if it's not confirmed I think it should be changed to those movies, that seems more likely. [[User:Derian|[[Derian]]]] 17:32, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::The individual moves are stated on [http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/ Smash Dojo.]—[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 17:40, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:::Also, Fire Blast has a 5-point star and Blast Burn has a damage radius, SolarBeam is a beam and Frenzy Plant uses actual plants, and that Hydro Pump looks like when Blastoise uses it after coming out of a Poké Ball. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 19:12, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::::True... Triple Finish could still be a reference to Pokémon Special though. [[User:Derian|[[Derian]]]] 19:19, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

== Pikachu's Volt Tackle ==

I think that you may die using it can be considered recoil damage. --[[User:YoshisWorld|'''☆Yoshis''']][[User talk:YoshisWorld|'''World☆''']] 00:32, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

== Night Slash? ==

Is there any evidence to back up the theory that Greninja's Final Smash is the move Night Slash? And if so, should the article mention it? --[[User:Ki|'''K'''i]][[User talk:Ki|☆]] 01:53, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
:Greninja's Final Smash isn't definitively Night Slash. Rather, it's called "Secret Ninja Attack." It can be confused with Night Slash, as there's a moon that appears in the background, but that's about it. [[User:Aidanzapunk|Aidanzapunk]] ([[User talk:Aidanzapunk|talk]]) 01:55, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
::I thought the "Secret Ninja Attack" was just an overall name for a combination of Mat Block, maybe Night Slash, and possibly another move, but if you don't think it is then I'll just leave it be. --[[User:Ki|'''K'''i]][[User talk:Ki|♢]] 04:52, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Ki: Thought it would be better to mention the reference straight-out rather than just have it be a link.

{{incomplete|needs=New Final Smash pictures}}
[[File:Ivysaur Smash Ball.png|thumb|220px|{{p|Ivysaur}} about to attack a Smash Ball]]
{{SmashWiki}}
A '''Final Smash''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|最後の切りふだ|Saigō no Kirifuda}}''' ''Final Trump'') is the most powerful move available to playable characters in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] and [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]. Each has their own personal Final Smash, which is activated by obtaining a {{sbw|Smash Ball}}. Due to the nature of the Final Smash, Smash Balls are a unique {{sbw|item}} in that they must be attacked several times to obtain them. Once a player has the Smash Ball, their character will begin to glow until they activate the Final Smash; during this time, the Ball can be stolen by attacking the player who possesses it.

No more than one Smash Ball or Final Smash can be on-screen at any given time.

==Volt Tackle==
{{main|Volt Tackle (move)}}
[[File:Pikachu Final Smash.png|thumb|200px|left|{{p|Pikachu}} after getting a Smash Ball]]
[[File:Volt Tackle SSBB.png|200px|thumb|Volt Tackle]]
'''{{sbw|Volt Tackle}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ボルテッカー|Borutekkā}}''' ''Volteccer'') is {{SSB|Pikachu}}'s Final Smash. A ball of blue energy surrounds Pikachu. Pikachu can then fly through the air, hitting and heavily damaging its opponents. The player may also press the standard attack button to increase the mass of the energy ball, causing more damage to be inflicted at the cost of the attack becoming harder to control.

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

==Triple Finish==
:''Main articles: [[Fire Blast (move)]], [[Solar Beam (move)]] and [[Hydro Pump (move)]]''

[[File:Triple Finish Start.png|left|200px|thumb|Pokémon Trainer sending out all of his Pokémon for Triple Finish]]
[[File:Triple Finish.png|right|200px|thumb|Triple Finish]]
'''{{sbw|Triple Finish}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|さんみいったい|Sanmīttai}}''' ''Trinity'') is {{SSB|Pokémon Trainer}}'s Final Smash. Pokémon Trainer will send out his two inactive Pokémon, who will join the active Pokémon to perform their strongest known [[move]]s together. As the move is prepared, a [[Generation IV]]-styled text box will appear at the bottom of the screen saying, "Take that! Triple Finish!" At this time, {{p|Charizard}} uses {{m|Fire Blast}}, {{p|Squirtle}} uses {{m|Hydro Pump}}, and {{p|Ivysaur}} uses {{m|SolarBeam}}.

When the move connects, the text box will change to say, "It's [[Damage modification|super effective]]!", a reference to dialog displayed in the [[core series]] games.

=== Trophy Information ===
''"The Final Smash of the Pokémon Trainer. Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard join forces to simultaneously use Hydro Pump, SolarBeam, and Fire Blast. This is the only time all three appear on the screen, so this move boasts the strength of three in one. A window will appear on the screen, but don't worry about it."''
{{-}}

==Aura Storm==
{{redirect|Aura Storm|episode titled The Aura Storm!|XY032}}
[[File:Lucario Final Smash.png|left|thumb|200px|Lucario about to use Aura Storm]]
[[File:Lucario Aura Storm.png|200px|thumb|Aura Storm]]
'''{{sbw|Aura Storm}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|はどうのあらし|Hadō no Arashi}}''' ''Wave Storm'') is {{SSB|Lucario}}'s Final Smash in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. Lucario jumps up into the air and uses [[aura]] to unleash a powerful beam attack. The beam can be controlled by tilting the Control Stick. Lucario can also slightly damage opponents if it comes into contact with them while jumping up at the start of the Final Smash.

=== Trophy Information ===
''"Lucario's Final Smash. After flying off the screen, it reappears in its center. It then launches a powerful [[Aura]] attack against all foes within a certain distance. The key to the attack is the ability to change its angle--it's a must to sweep slowly left and right to hit the selected foes multiple times. The last blow will send the victim flying away."''
{{-}}

==Puff Up==
[[File:Jigglypuff Final Smash.png|left|thumb|200px|Jigglypuff about to use Puff Up]]
[[File:Jigglypuff Puff Up.png|thumb|200px|Puff Up]]
'''{{sbw|Puff Up}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|おおきくなる|Ōkikunaru}}''' ''Grow'') is {{OBP|Jigglypuff|Super Smash Bros.}}'s Final Smash. It inflates itself until it fills the stage and then deflates. Anyone touching Jigglypuff when it reaches its maximum size will be sent flying. Puff Up works best on smaller stages like {{sbw|Smashville}} or {{sbw|Final Destination}}.

There is a {{sbw|Regenerating terrain glitch|glitch}} that allows Jigglypuff to remain this size on certain stages such as the {{sbw|Bridge of Eldin}} (using it in the {{zw|Portal|Twilight Portal}}), though Jigglypuff will be sent offscreen for a KO if it moves around too much.

=== Trophy Information ===
''"Jigglypuff's Final Smash. It wills its body to get bigger and bigger and bigger. It can't move, and it can't attack--all it can do is grow bigger while everyone else looks on. However, it's invulnerable, and it overpowers all attacks to gradually push opponents off the screen. It's a very simple technique, but how it's used determines its effectiveness."''
{{-}}

==Mega Evolution==
'''{{sbw|Mega Lucario|Mega Evolution}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|メガシンカ|Mega Shinka}}''' ''Mega Evolution'') is Lucario's Final Smash from [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]. Using the power of [[Mega Evolution]], Lucario can temporarily transform into Mega Lucario, which enhances its Aura to maximum. This allows Mega Lucario to use its Aura attacks at full power unlike the normal circumstances where Lucario had to take heavy damage first.

[[File:Mega Charizard X SSB4.png|thumb|Charizard as Mega Charizard X]]
'''{{sbw|Mega Charizard X|Mega Evolution}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|メガシンカ|Mega Shinka}}''' ''Mega Evolution'') is also {{SSB|Charizard}}'s Final Smash from [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]. Using the power of Mega Evolution, Charizard can temporarily transform into Mega Charizard X. As Mega Charizard X, Charizard can gain a speed increase and similar abilities to Yoshi's Final Smash {{sbw|Super Dragon}} where it can continuously fly as well as being able to shoot {{m|Fire Blast|fireballs}} from its mouth that can prevent the opponent from moving and cause multiple hits from direct damage. Another attack Mega Charizard X can also use is a fast charging attack where it charges forward while spinning similar to {{m|Flare Blitz}}. Unlike Flare Blitz, this attack cannot cause recoil damage and can also cause multiple hits from direct damage. The player can also control the direction Mega Charizard X charges in when the control stick is pushed in that direction.

==Secret Ninja Attack==
'''{{sbw|Secret Ninja Attack}}''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|しのびのひおうぎ|Shinobi no Hiōgi}}''' ''Mysterious Ninja'') is {{SSB|Greninja}}'s Final Smash. Using a strong drop kick, Greninja activates a hidden tatami mat (a reference to Greninja's [[Mat Block (move)|signature move]]) to send its opponent into the air where under a full moon, Greninja as a shadow can strike its opponent multiple times at high speeds before ending it with another powerful drop kick. This Final Smash can also be used to strike against multiple targets simultaneously.

==Trivia==
* Only Pikachu and Pokémon Trainer's three individual Final Smashes are actual [[move]]s, and all of them have 120 power in the games.
* Volt Tackle's appearance and behavior is derived from its namesake, Pulseman's Volteccer.
* A tactic similar to the Triple Finish was used in [[Pokémon Adventures]], when the [[Pokédex holders]] used {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}}, {{m|Hydro Cannon}}, and Volt Tackle in unison against [[Guile Hideout]] and Kyogre.

== To staff: a few splits ==

I suggested [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User:Tiddlywinks&oldid=2097458#Incomplete_splits a number of splits] last Tuesday. That means it's now been over a week, and there's either been no response or hardly any. For the majority that have had no response, there is little chance more waiting will result in someone responding. I understand staff must review these things, so I'd appreciate it if you could bring these splits up with staff and get back to me on whether I would be allowed to perform them when I am ready to.

Perhaps I could implore staff to also consider a different request I made just today. I made [[User:Tiddlywinks/List of Berries by growth stats|this page]], which [[Talk:List of Berries by growth time#This page should include Berry yield|I think]] should replace [[List of Berries by growth time|this one]]. That's a big enough change I think I need some consensus/approval. I know no one's really had a chance to respond to my suggestion at the moment, but you'll have to forgive me if I'm a little pessimistic about the chances of getting any response given the above examples...

==Sprite boxes==
I apologize if this isn't your jurisdiction, but I need to bring something up with the Board. To put it simply, I'm tired of having to dig back sprites from [[Raticate (Pokémon)#Other sprites|Crystal, FireRed/LeafGreen, Platinum, HeartGold/SoulSilver, and Black 2/White 2]] from the dusty corners of the Archives and putting them onto their articles, where they belong and are, you know, ''used''. The main Sprites box needs to change to account for these missing sprites, which is something I can't do. If individual cells can be given to the front sprites from every game (''particularly'' ones reused from previous games in the same generation), back sprites can have one just as well. Please bring this initiative to the gang, call up whoever's the Wikicode Wizard, and let's get ourselves a truly representative sprite box. Thank you for your time.

P.S. I do think {{DL|Qwilfish (Pokémon)|Japanese sprites}} should either remain the same or be incorporated into the main sprite box in a way that separates them and shows how anomalous they are. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|The]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|Best]] 00:51, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
:Hi! I have brought this up with other staff - it is something we have intended to do for a while, however it's encountered countless issues due to inconsistency of which Pokémon have modified sprites or not. @_@ so it hasn't happened just yet due to it giving problems such as that but rest assured it is something that is actually getting worked on. :P [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 03:38, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
::Oh good. I won't be adding anymore "Other sprites" then. By "modified sprites," do you mean the Gen IV sprites that are insignificantly different from each other? Though it would be aesthetically nice to combine cells for games that reuse sprites, I know that this would give each Pokémon's sprite box different coding and complicate everything. I don't see how difficult it could be to add a few more columns and rows if we're just gonna build upon the current model, though… Oh, one more thing: How is getting the XY 3D models going? Still stuck on the permissions ordeal? --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|The]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|Best]] 04:16, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
:::Minor point, but are the sprite sections going to be renamed? 3D models aren't sprites after all.

[[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 17:42, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
::::We could call it "Depictions" or something.

== Protean Ability, へんげんじざい = Phantasmagoria? ==

So apparently the old translation for へんげんじざい was {{wp|Phantasmagoria}}, a type of theater invented in the 18th century which basically was more or less shadow puppetry. Someone undid this and changed it to Protean (which strange enough, Google Translate gives as a viable option to replace Phantasmagoria with)

So...what is the deal here...was Phantasmagoria the correct translation and the edit undone or was the edit correct?

If I were to defend Phatasmagoria as the correct one...I would take a guess it has to do with how the user can change their typing like how the projection on the wall changes...or something like that.

Anyways I brought it up to you because you admins are more knowledgeable about this stuff. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 07:00, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Someone just changed it ''phantasmagoria'' without our notice. へんげんじざい means ''capable of ever-changing appearance'', so ''protean'' (capable of changing shape){{tt|*|The word is derived from ''Proteus'', a shape-shifting sea god in Greek mythology}} is also a viable translation for it. --[[User:神奇超龍|'''超龍''']]「'''[[User talk:神奇超龍|Chao]]'''」 08:01, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

== [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards]] ==

{{u|Myzou}} asked a question on [[Talk:Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards]], and since you've made significant contributions to that article, I hoped you might be able to answer their question.

I was also wondering if that page should perhaps have scans of the backs of all the cards? Or maybe only for the sticker cards (since they go together to form a larger picture)? Also, are scans of the normal cards preferred over scans of foil versions? And/or is it at all desired to have scans of the foil versions of all the cards? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:22, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
:I never intended to scan the backs, at least for now, since we already have the typed descriptions. Mostly, I'd rather get the fronts of the cards in there. I am also looking to update the other Topps articles to follow the standard I've set out here so that's currently a bigger priority than scanning the backs. Having the sticker cards backs seems like a good idea though, even if it's just put together to show what the completed puzzle looks like. I personally prefer to scan non-foil versions over foil versions if I have both, since I find in my scanner the foil ones show up kinda funny but the non-foil looks better. Again, I wouldn't prioritise scanning both for now. Maybe in the future we could show them side-by-side I guess, but since they show up funny when I scan them and it's the same image, I wouldn't consider it a big deal XD.

== Topps card scanning tips? ==

Since it sounded (and seems) like you scanned your own cards for the [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards]] page, I was wondering if you might have any tips for getting good scans since your images look pretty good (to me anyways).

I tested out my scanner with some cards today, and it's a little short of ideal. If I put the cards against the edge of the scanner (so they're as straight as possible, though still not ''perfect''), part of the edge doesn't get scanned. But if I move them away from the edge, it'll be harder to keep them straight/level.

These are the basic/best examples I produced: [http://www.mediafire.com/view/tvk9q304p4m8cm1/Movie2000_sample_photo-close.jpg "photo" scan] (2 MB {{tt|jpg|This was my first test and I didn't realize it was putting it into a jpg}}), when I had the cards all close together; [http://www.mediafire.com/view/a7jfn0rdtf7d2ij/IMG_20140827_0001doc.png "document" scan] (15 MB png), when I had the cards against the edges and spaced out a bit (when I tried this with "photo" scan, it kept cropping out the cards into individual images...and not doing a stellar job of it); and [http://www.mediafire.com/view/zme76umddz7xjhm/Movie2000_sample_mag-offset.png "magazine" scan] (16 MB png), when I had the cards spaced away from each other and the edges. (The darker "Pokemon at Play" is a foil card.) If you compare the last one to the other two, you can see how part of the edges isn't scanned. And all three also have slightly different qualities (at full size), and I'm not sure which is "best".

Should I just work with one of those and let the minor issues slide (like just straighten out any uneven images in an image manipulation program?), or do you have any tips to make better scans? And which type of scan is the "best" quality, or does it not really matter? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:31, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
:Yes, all the cards I uploaded are scans of my own collection :) I suppose what I do is most like the "document scan", on the flat part of my scanner the bottom right corner has this little arrow dealie and if I line up the cards on that side, the part that gets cut off is the minimum. I line em all up on the bottom so they stay straight (I hate scanning things crooked). If I line them up on the top though or too close to the far left side, too much gets cut off, so I just line up a few at a time starting from that bottom right corner. Honestly though any of your pictures look fine, I would suggest the magazine or document scan if it was me, but go with whatever you think is best quality cause honestly any of them looks acceptable to me. As for individual cards, my scanning program lets me customise the part that gets scanned, so I intentionally leave a bit of extra space around each individual card scan so that I can crop it in image editing software after. The whole thing is awfully time consuming lol.

I just did some fairly conservative cropping for that (and some others at the moment) and you can see where the edge of the card stops.

::::::Seeing as you updated the Advanced article, perhaps I should tell you what I'm in any shape to scan and update so we don't end up duplicating effort too much. I've got all of series 1 and I was gonna tackle that next. I've also got significant parts of series 2 and 3, except for Pokemon cards (I have some but not a lot) and die-cut cards. I've also got a moderate amount of Johto series 1 (might be less than half) and a very small amount of Johto League Champions...and one Chrome series 1 card. I don't have anything from Advanced, and certainly not Top 10. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 06:38, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
:I have a good chunk of series 1, but that might be best left to you if you have literally everything and are already working on it, haha. I also have a significant chunk of series 2 (including the Pokémon), but very little from series 3 (just some of the chase cards and a chrome version of Porygon. what's the deal with these chrome ones anyway? I have Chrome Charizard, Chansey and Porygon) and I have most of the Pokémon cards for Advanced as well, which I will be doing next ^^' unfortunately i have zero Johto or Johto League Champions, so you are on your own on that one. I have no Top 10 either :( perhaps I will do Advanced and series 2 (you can always add your series 2 cards after), if you do series 1 and the Johto ones? and I guess series 3, but since neither of us has it complete, i'll just add my cards to your list if you don't have them already XD p.s. the Movie 2000 cards page looks AWESOME T_T thanks for all your help :) [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 16:33, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

:::Sounds good. I'll do series 1, then Johto(s), then series 3, and then series 2 (either whatever I have or whatever you haven't uploaded if you've gotten to it by then). The Chrome cards are apparently special rereleases of #1-151 in two sets (Chrome series 1 & 2)[http://www.nslists.com/pokchro1.htm]. It apparently has a veritable buttload of rare parallel sets, and they apparently weren't guaranteed (that is, where most series had X regular cards and 1 foil card in a pack, Chrome packs apparently just included the variants at different rates, like chase cards).
:::FYI, what I have/am missing of series 3 is: have Pokemon 118, 123, 124, 126, 128, 130, 132, 135-137, 139, 141, 142, 144, 145, 149, and 151; have the checklist; missing OR10-13 and OR16; missing puzzle #5; have die-cut #7.

This weekend I began the process of updating the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online pages. In so doing, I have encountered two problems, which are described in greater detail on my [[User_talk:Marlofkark|talk page]].

== A question ==

A user has inquired about a page concerning Lisa Courtney, a Guinness Record holder for the largest collection of Pokémon memorabilia. Currently, her page is under Orphaned status, so if her page is notable enough, where's the best place to link to her page if we are to remedy that status?

== Questions ==
Is this a better image for Gold's kakuna?
[[http://sta.sh/091p80vzx0d]]
Also is it alright if i make pokemon templates for Cheren, Bianca and Shauna (Hugh, Tierno and Trevor for later)?
[[User:Animaltamer7]]09:51, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
:For the image, it's about six of one and half a dozen of the other. They're both fine to me. ^^' as for the templates, I assume you mean something [[Template:Black's Pokémon|like this]], right? For Cheren and Bianca, honestly I'd skip it, since they only have one Pokémon each with a full article all to itself, so it doesn't really seem worth it. Same with Shauna - she only has like three Pokémon so I'd say it's not really necessary for now. Thanks for the message, though!

::Ok, so what about Wally, can I make one for him (when he gets more pokemon articles for him I mean). [[User:Animaltamer7]]13:56, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
:::Again, I'd skip it for now since only one of his Pokémon has an article. However, like any other character, if circumstances changed and, for example, he has a huge role in a future ORAS story and he gets more Pokémon articles, then sure. Same with the above characters. It's mostly just for ease of navigation. If a character has a lot of Pokémon with articles, the navigation template's useful. If most of the info is already on the character's main page, then skip it. That's why it's mainly Pokédex holders that have navigation templates - since they have more prominent roles in the story, their Pokémon appear more often, they are generally shown with more Pokémon, and their Pokémon often have character development outside of battle.

== Steven's Metagross and Akira's Charizard ==

Do you think {{Steven}}'s {{p|Metagross}} and {{OBP|Akira|LDK}}'s {{p|Charizard}} should get their own articles? Metagross did serve as Steven's main/signature Pokémon in the games, recently appeared in the anime, and made some appearances in Pokémon Adventures. As for Akira's Charizard, Akira is the main character and did rely on Charizard many times, but the article may be short. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 03:05, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
:Metagross would probably be okay. Charizard I would not make an article for now. While it fits the notability criteria, I would prefer to expand the existing section before splitting it off into an article. If we split it off now it would just be a stub so I think the information is more useful in the spot it is. As it expands further it may be worth splitting one day but for right now, nope :P [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 07:55, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

== ORAS manga ==
Is it too early to be adding in info from Pokemon Omega Ruby Crimson Passion and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire Indigo Wisdom, the new ORAS manga? Dogasu has some info about it though. On another note, I'm not sure if Ataro suggested this before but I was thinking that we should only list locations that have been named, called out, or revealed later on. For example, in the anime (although this example is using a different media), the Pokéathlon was located in Camellia Town instead of next to Johto's National Park. Cities/Towns that don't appear in the games have happened many times before. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 04:40, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
:If you have information, I don't see why it shouldn't be added. I don't know much about that manga yet unfortunately so it's up to you for now :P as for your suggestion, I suppose it seems logical. You mean how some chapters say like "Location: A field", right? [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 04:05, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
::I actually know very little about that ORAS manga but I'll do my best with the information. As for my other statement; yeah, I do mean how some chapters would say that such as your example with Location: A field. The same would apply if a character mentioned that they are in a numbered route or city from games. However, if someone/chapter mentioned a forest doesn't mean that it was Viridian Forest or Petalburg Forest, could be any forest. Many of the images of the locations I recently uploaded were all locations that were mentioned in the chapter, on a plus side.

==Black and White==
Since the lockdown is over, I'll take care of the English titles tomorrow. Also if I create a new page for Volume 19 I won't list the chapters as 3 chapters until I get the book since I won't go against you on this. Also for X and Y, I'll only perform a page move on X's Khangskhan if it's nickname will be different. For the volume I'll leave it alone and report back what I learn first, though I'll still handle the chapter pages' titles myself. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 05:16, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
:Once you get Volume 19, feel free to add the rounds to Volume 20 as well since it's the last volume. I just feel more comfortable waiting until Volume 19's rounds are confirmed :P I think Garu and Kogaru might get new English nicknames since their names are based on Garura (Kangaskhan's Japanese name) but we'll see when the volume comes out tomorrow and move it then ;) as for the volume itself, if it turns out to be different like I predicted, you can make a page for it [[Pokémon Black and White volume 1|based on this]] if you want otherwise I'll do it myself if you tell me which rounds are in it. If it turns out like the Japanese volume (extremely unlikely but whatevs) then you can just add the publications. I'll be getting it on Wednesday anyway so it's all good. Cheers!

==Final Results==
As you predicted Viz has released only three chapters with their release (as least it keeps the Japanese releases ahead). I took care of the translation of the titles for both X and Y, as well as Black and White, along with do the page move to create the [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga]] page. I'll let you deal with creating a page like the "Pokémon XY Vol. 1" (and Vol. 2 page) using the titles I translated and modifying the X and Y (chapter) page to improve what I started last night and updating VIZ's profile with the X and Y data if you want. Also I created Volume 20 for Black and White but I need help disabling the next template as there will not be a volume 21 and as easily predicted both 19 and 20 do in fact have 3 chapters each. At this point Viz will only be releasing 3-4 chapters for the mini-volumes. I also had Pattyman aid me with the Archive-related work for the Kanga and Li'l Kanga business -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 23:38, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

'''Pokémon Black and White: Ash's Triple Threat''' by [[Simcha Whitehill]] is a Pokémon book designed for beginning readers. It was published by [[Scholastic]] in September 2011 and is 32 pages in length.

==Plot==
This book is based on the anime episode ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]''

Ash arrives in Striaton City with Pikachu, Iris, and Axew, excited for his first Gym battle in Unova. Cilan walks by them, commenting on the rarity of Ash's Pikachu, and introduces himself as a Pokémon connoisseur. After Ash asks where the Striaton Gym is, Cilan offers to show him the way. Arriving at the Gym, Ash is shocked to find out that there are three Gym Leaders, and Cilan is one of them. After each of the brothers send out their respective Pokémon, Ash decides to battle all three. The leaders accept, on the condition that he must win two of the three matches in order to earn the Gym Badge. In the first match, Ash's Tepig defeats Chili's Pansear. Cress is up next, and his Peanpour defeats Ash's Pikachu. In the final match, Cilan's Pansage is narrowly defeated by Ash's Oshawott. Happily leaving the Gym after earning his badge, Cilan chases after Ash and asks to join his group. Ash and Iris agree and they leave on their journey through the rest of Unova.

===Blurb===
'''It's triple trouble for Ash and his Pokémon!'''

Ash can't wait for his first Gym battle in Unova. But when he arrives at the Striaton City Gym, he finds not only one Gym Leader waiting for him, but three! Ash decides to battle them all.

Now, Ash's new Pokémon are going head-to-head with three very tough Pokémon: Pansear, Panpour, and Pansage. Ash better look out, because this battle is starting to heat up!

Ki:

HIS NAME IS JUAN? What is the world coming to? Can we pleeeease keep the Japanese name on all the articles? -[[User:Greengiant|Greengiant]] 04:30, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It may not be the best name, but it does provide an alternative for those of us sick of trying to figure out exactly what his Japanese name *is*. --BJG

Ah, you mean like [[Jirarudan|Lawrence III]]. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 09:08, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

That's dirty pool. Besides, there was no debate about his name in Japanese, we just couldn't figure out where the heck his name *came* from until a few months ago--BJG.

== International Juan ==

Does anyone know the French, German, Italian and Spanish traductions of his name? {{unsigned|Siegfried}}

== English name meaning ==

I doubt his name is based on Don Juan like the article currently implies. I've always assumed it was just because the "Jua" in his name sounded like the "Wa" in water.
...Actually, looking at his name meanings from other countries, I guess it is likely. But I do think the "Wa" was intentional.--[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 10:15, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
:No, it doesn't. His name was mispronounced in the show. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 14:05, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
::Really? How is it pronounced then?--[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 08:20, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
:::I suck at writing pronounciation but real pronounciation of Juan is something like ''Hoo-ahn'', not "''One''". --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 08:26, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
::::I'm still a little unsure, I understand that it makes sense for the original pronunciation for Don Juan to be intact, but it still seems like something you can't exactly claim is official. The waste of a water pun that's pretty close seems weird to me.
Also, are you taking into account that Juan would be pronounced in an Americanized way? Your two pronunciations seem to me to only be different in that sort of way. (Mexico vs. Me-hee-co, for example)--[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 08:18, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
:::::Americanized? It's still Spanish. Mexico is the word which IS in English (I mean, you can find Mexico in English dictionary) and it's pronounced differently. Juan is not. It's still Spanish. Ib Americanized way, it would be pronounced John, because that's english equivalent of spanish Juan. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 08:27, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
::::::I see what you're getting at. I suppose you're trying to say the "One"-esque pronunciation is nothing more than a common mistake. I'd argue that a bit more, but honestly I'm no expert. I'd figure this at least warrants a note, maybe, but I'm not going to make a further case of it. --[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 09:02, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
:::::::From Wikipedia -
*"Don Juan ([[Byron]])":
A recurring joke throughout the poem is that most of the Spanish words and names are rhymed in a way which indicates that the names are being pronounced incorrectly. For example:
<blockquote>
Till, after cloying the gazettes with cant,
 The age discovers he is not the '''true one''';
 Of such as these I should not care to vaunt,
 I'll therefore take our ancient friend '''Don Juan'''

In the above passage, "Juan" is rhymed with "true one", as if the word were being read according to the phonetic rules of the English language. The correct pronunciation of ''Juan'' is ''Hwan''.

In fact, "JOO-un" is the traditional English pronunciation of ''Juan'', though not a name traditionally used in England.

*"Juan":
Juan (IPA: [xwan]) is a Spanish form of the given name John.

Ice (type)

2014-12-12T22:48:49Z

Ki: /* Trivia */

{{types}}
The '''Ice type''' (Japanese: '''こおりタイプ''' ''Ice type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Ice-type Pokémon are [[Lorelei]] of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]], [[Pryce]] of [[Mahogany Town]], [[Glacia]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, [[Candice]] of [[Snowpoint City]], [[Brycen]] of [[Icirrus City]], and [[Wulfric]] of [[Snowbelle City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Ice-type moves were [[special move|special]], but they may now also be [[physical move|physical]] depending on the attack.

|resisted1=Ice
|resisted2=Water
}}

===Generation II onwards===
Ice-type Pokémon are immune to {{weather|Hail}} weather damage.

Starting in [[Generation IV]], Ice-type Pokémon are immune to the {{status|Frozen}} [[status condition]].

}}

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
The Ice type is considered by many to be the worst of all types defensively. It only resists itself and is immune to [[Freeze (status ailment)|freezing]], while carrying weaknesses to {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Steel}}, making it weak to moves such as {{m|Stealth Rock}}, {{m|Bullet Punch}} and {{m|Fire Blast}}. Their sole resistance is nullified by {{p|Swinub|the}} {{p|Piloswine|Swinub}} {{p|Mamoswine|line's}} {{t|Ground}}, {{p|Articuno}}'s and {{p|Delibird}}'s {{t|Flying}}, {{p|Snover|The}} {{p|Abomasnow|Snover}} line's {{t|Grass}}, and {{p|Kyurem}}'s Dragon. Even with a second type, all but two Ice-type Pokémon—{{p|Froslass}} and {{p|Rotom|Frost Rotom}}—have more weaknesses than resistances and immunities, and certain Ice-type Pokémon such as Articuno, Delibird, the Snover line, and the Amaura line have at least one double weakness.

===Offense===
Offensive-wise, because only two non-Ice types ({{p|Empoleon}} and {{p|Heatran}}, which are both {{t|Steel}} types), doubly resist Ice, and the fact that double weaknesses to Ice are fairly common (largely due to {{t|Dragon}} types, whose final forms are often doubly weak), Ice is, along with {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Fire}}, one of the most commonly used attacking types. Ice also pairs well with other common attacking types, notably {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Electric}}. {{type|Water}} Pokémon can also effectively use Ice attacks, which cover their major weakness of {{t|Grass}}, as well as {{t|Dragon}}, which resists their moves.

Similarly, an Ice-type Pokémon can often use {{type|Water}} moves, which covers their weakness of Fire and Rock.

===Contest properties===
When used in Contests, Ice-type moves become {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves, while only a single move is regarded as a {{OBP|Cool|condition}} move.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 35 Ice-type Pokémon or 4.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the second-rarest type, behind {{t|Ghost}}.

When it is {{weather|hailing}}, {{a|Forecast}} will transform the user into the Ice-type. Pokémon with the ability {{a|Color Change}} will be changed into an Ice-type after it is hit with a Ice-type move. {{a|Protean}} will change its user into the Ice-type when it uses an Ice-type move. When a Pokémon with {{a|Multitype}} holds an [[Icicle Plate]], it will become an Ice-type Pokémon. When a Pokémon with {{a|Imposter}} is sent out and its opposite opponent is Ice-type, it will transform into that Pokémon and have its Ice-typing.

==Trivia==
* Generation V introduced the most Ice-type Pokémon of any generation, with {{tt|eight|including Frost Rotom}}, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ice-type Pokémon, with four.
* Generation I introduced the most Ice-type moves of any generation, with six, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Ice-type moves, with only {{m|Freeze-Dry|one}}.
* Although the Ice type existed since Generation I, pure Ice-type Pokémon were not introduced until [[Generation III]].
** The {{p|Kyurem|only dual-type Ice-type}} Pokémon introduced in Generation V was a [[Legendary Pokémon]].
* In [[Generation III]], all Ice-type moves were {{OBP|Beauty|condition}} moves.
* Only the {{t|Normal}} type has a lower number of resistances than the Ice type, having no resistances (but one immunity). Ice only resists itself.
* There has been a [[Gym Leader]] or [[Elite Four]] member who specializes in the Ice type introduced in each generation. Three of the Ice-type [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Pryce]], [[Candice]], and [[Brycen]], are the seventh Gym Leaders in their respective region. [[Wulfric]] is the exception, being the eighth in his region.
* Ice is the only type that is super effective against the {{t|Flying}} type that does not in turn resist {{type|Flying}} moves.
* Ice-type attacks are resisted by all types that {{type|Water}} Pokémon resist.
* No Ice-type status moves change stats other than reverting changes and changing weather.

==Characteristics==
===Offense===
Electric-type Pokémon often have high {{stat|Speed}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} stats. Also, the fact that they are immune to [[Paralysis (status ailment)|Paralysis]] as of Generation VI (unless said type is removed by moves such as {{m|Soak}}) makes many of them ideal Special sweepers. The Electric type's ability to hit the very common {{t|Water}} and {{t|Flying}} types super effectively is also important for many offensive Pokémon. Moreover, the Electric-type pairs well with other common attacking types, including {{t|Ghost}}, {{t|Dragon}} and {{t|Ice}}. Despite a lack of reliable powerful moves, {{m|Thunderbolt}} is one of the most commonly used moves due to its mix of power, accuracy and type coverage. {{m|Thunder}} also sees common usage on {{m|Rain Dance}} based teams due to its perfect accuracy in rain. Additionally, {{m|Thunder Wave}}, being one of the most reliable forms of inducing paralysis, is commonly seen on a wide variety of defensive Pokémon. The resistances to the Electric type are also largely redundant, with the obvious exception of the {{t|Ground}} type's immunity.

===Defense===
On average, Electric types have average {{stat|Defense}} and above average {{stat|Special Defense}}. As a single type, Electric is one of only two types to have only one weakness, the other being the {{t|Normal}} type. The downside to this is that Ground attacks are very common types offensively. While they also have a small number of resistances, many dual-type Electric-type Pokémon have secondary types giving them a large total number of resistances, such as {{p|Magnezone}} who, along with its pre-evolved forms, has the most resistances of all Pokémon. Additionally, {{p|Eelektross}} and its family, pure Electric-type Pokémon, have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, effectively giving them no weaknesses. Regardless, the two resistances (other than themselves) are rarely used offensively.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contests}}, Electric-type moves are typically {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves. None of them are considered {{OBP|Tough|condition}}.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 48 Electric-type Pokémon, or 6.5% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 8th rarest type.

==Trivia==
* Generation V introduced the most Electric-type Pokémon of any generation, with eleven, and Generation VI introduced the fewest, with three.
* Generation VI introduced the most Electric-type moves of any generation, with seven, and Generation II introduced the fewest, with two.
* Generation III is the only generation that introduced no dual Electric-type Pokémon.
* Generation VI is the only generation that introduced no pure Electric-type Pokémon.
* All Electric-type moves introduced in Generation I begin with the word ''Thunder''.
* Electric is the type represented by a Gym Leader in the greatest number of regions, with five—an Electric-type Gym is present in every region except for [[Johto]], which lacks one due to the [[Vermilion Gym]] in [[Kanto]] also being accessible in games featuring Johto.
** Therefore, an Electric-type Gym is present in every [[core series]] Pokémon game.
* Prior to Generation V's {{p|Zekrom}}, no Pokémon had a double resistance to Electric-type attacks.

Steel (type)

Ki: /* Trivia */

{{search|in-game type|the TCG type|Metal (TCG)}}
----
{{types}}
The '''Steel type''' (Japanese: '''はがねタイプ''' ''Steel type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Steel-type Pokémon are [[Jasmine]] of [[Olivine City]]; [[Steven Stone]], former {{pkmn|Champion}} of [[Hoenn]]; [[Byron]] of [[Canalave City]]; and [[Wikstrom]] of the [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all Steel-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

The Steel type was introduced in [[Generation II]]. As well as introducing new Pokémon with the Steel type, {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} were changed to be dual-type {{t|Electric}}/Steel Pokémon.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, Steel types are considered to be one of the best types of Pokémon to use. Until Generation VI, pure steel Pokémon had resistances to 11 of the 17 types, which can make for a good physical and special {{DL|Appendix:Metagame terminology|tank}} in battle. Since Generation VI, that number has decreased to 10 out of the now 18 types. Steel types also have an immunity to {{type|Poison}} attacks and cannot be {{status|poison}}ed (except when using {{m|Twineedle}} in Generation II or if poisoned while not Steel-type). They can hold up to many attacks, because of their typically high Defense.

However, all three of the Steel type's weaknesses—{{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fire}}—are very common and popular types. This makes it weak to common moves of those types, including the extremely common {{m|Earthquake}}. Fortunately, most Steel types are dual types, which defends usually against one of these types; however, it is possible for dual-type Steel Pokémon to develop double weaknesses to some of these moves.

Pokémon purely of the Steel type have the 2nd greatest amount of resistances in the game. {{p|Magnemite}}, {{p|Magneton}}, and {{p|Magnezone}}, being Steel and {{t|Electric}}, are the most resistant Pokémon in the game, having 11 resistances plus an immunity to Poison. The added Electric type means these Pokémon are also resistant to Electric moves, and have a double resistance to {{t|Flying}} and Steel moves. However, they also have a double weakness to {{type|Ground}} moves (though this can be negated with the move {{m|Magnet Rise}}, giving them a second immunity).

===Offense===
Offensively, it is only recommended that Steel-type moves be used for STAB or for hitting {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon super effectively. There are only three types weak to Steel: {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Fairy}}, the prior two of which are rarely used defensively. Furthermore, the types that do resist Steel — {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Water}} and itself — are very common. There are only five pure Steel-type Pokémon; thus, most have a second type able to provide more effective moves that could offset this disadvantage. Steel-type Pokémon typically have good Attack and below-average Special Attack, though there are some high-powered outliers in either the Physical or Special fields, with a handful in both categories. Said outliers are used often, so STAB on Steel-type moves can prove valuable. All in all, Steel can be a useful type offensively if combined with STAB, paired with another type for support and boosted by a high base total of at least one of the attacking stats.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Steel-type moves are typically {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 43 Steel-type Pokémon or 5.8% of all Pokémon (counting [[Form differences|forms]] and [[Mega Evolution]]s that change typing as different Pokémon), making it the 5th rarest type.

==Trivia==
* Generation V introduced the most Steel-type Pokémon of any generation (minus Generation I), with 12, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Steel-type Pokémon, with four.
* Generation IV introduced the most Steel-type moves of any generation (minus Generation I), with seven, and Generation VI introduced the fewest Steel-type moves, with only {{m|King's Shield|one}}.
* Out of all the types, Steel has the most resistances and the highest average {{stat|Defense}}.
* In Generation II, the Steel type saw one type change in a Pokémon family ({{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}}), but no change in moves. The opposite is true for the {{t|Dark}} type, which saw one type change in a move ({{m|Bite}}), but no change in a Pokémon.
* All Steel-type moves affect only one Pokémon at a time. Similarly, it is the only type to lack a move that functions differently in [[Double Battle]]s.
* Prior to Generation VI, Steel was the only type that didn't have a neutral type match-up with any of the seventeen existing types, considering both the offense and defense of both types. In Generation VI, it was changed so it no longer resisted Dark or Ghost-type moves.
* Each of the three starter types have a different effectiveness when attacking a pure Steel-type Pokémon. Grass does ½× damage, Water does 1× damage, and Fire does 2× damage.
* A pure Steel-type Pokémon has more resistances than any dual-type Pokémon that is not part Steel.

The '''third generation''' of Pokémon games, also sometimes known as the '''advance''' or '''advanced generation''', is the third set of Pokémon games released, and is described by some to be a "{{wp|reboot (fiction)|resetting}}" of the series.

Centering around {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} on the [[Game Boy Advance]], released in 2002 and 2004 respectively (2003 and 2005 outside of Japan), Generation III broke from the continuous storyline that had been established between [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], opting instead to move players to the [[Hoenn]] region, an island [[region]] disconnected from [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]]. The games themselves are incompatible with the previous two generations as well, due to using 4 hexadecimal places instead of 2 for all Pokémon, initially causing many complaints due to the unavailability of many popular Generation I and II Pokémon in Ruby and Sapphire. This problem was remedied, however, between the release of Hoenn's paired versions and third version, with remakes of Generation I's {{game|Red and Green|s}} appearing as {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} on the Game Boy Advance, as well as [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] on the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]].

Details in the Hoenn- and Kanto-based games hint that the storyline of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald is contemporaneous with that of FireRed and LeafGreen (and due to this, contemporaneous with Generation I as well), placing Generation III three years before Generation II and [[Generation IV]], themselves contemporaneous. It is unknown where the storylines of [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] fall in the timeline, being five years apart from each other but making no reference to their time period relative to any of the main series games.

==Advances in gameplay==
Through its incompatibility with [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], Generation III enhanced the Pokémon world the most yet, bringing about the most changes to the world of Pokémon. The advances include:
* The addition of {{cat|Generation III Pokémon|135 new Pokémon}}, the most added since Generation I (at the time of its release), bringing the total to 386. Many new Pokémon have previously unseen type combinations, while {{p|Wynaut|only}} {{p|Azurill|two}} of them are related by evolution to {{p|Wobbuffet|older}} {{p|Marill|Pokémon}}.
* Two new forms of {{p|Unown}} are also introduced.
* The addition of 103 new [[move]]s, bringing the total to 354.
* Pokémon may now have one or two of 77 different [[Ability|Abilities]] which can change the tide of battle or affect out-of-battle gameplay.
* The [[Pokémon Storage System]] has changed from a text-based interface to a full-color graphical user interface. Boxes, while remaining at 14, now have 10 extra spaces, allowing for storage of 140 additional Pokémon (for a total of 420 Pokémon).
* The introduction of [[Pokémon Contest]]s, where Pokémon show off their style in one of five [[Contest condition]]s, with Contest stats enhanced by [[Pokéblock]]s. Through this and other methods [[Ribbon]]s can be won for Pokémon, which they will retain when transferred to a Generation IV game.
* A brand-new region, [[Hoenn]], with its own set of eight [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Elite Four]]. Player characters are also different from before.
* Seven new {{DL|Poké Ball|Introduced in Generation III|Poké Ball}} variants, replacing those found in Johto.
* New [[villainous teams]], [[Team Aqua]] and [[Team Magma]], whose focus is on capturing the legendary Pokémon {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}, respectively.
* [[Weather conditions]], introduced before, can now be found on the field and activate at the start of battle, while one more, hail, has been added.
* [[Double Battle]]s, where both sides use two Pokémon at a time, introduced.
* Communication capabilities with the [[e-Reader]] to activate certain [[events]].
* All handheld Generation III games have a framerate of 60, allowing for smoother animations.
* Link trades and battles are made possible between Japanese and international releases due to the use of a worldwide character set. Due to the fact that online trading was introduced only in Generation IV, however, most are not made aware of this.

===Major alterations from Generation II===
* A complete overhaul of the Pokémon data structure; Pokémon now have an individual [[personality value]] which can range up to a number above four billion. [[Ability|Abilities]] and [[nature]]s, also newly introduced, are determined based on this value, as is a Pokémon's [[gender]], while the {{IV}} system has been overhauled for greater variance (0-31 rather than 0-15 as it was before). {{shiny|Shininess}} is now based on a calculation between the personality value and [[Original Trainer]]'s [[Trainer ID number]] and secret ID number with the same rarity.
* An overhaul of the [[Berry]] system introduced in Generation II: old Berries rejected in favor of Berries which grow individually as plants and can be picked and planted elsewhere. The effects of the first ten new Berries are similar to the ten Generation II Berries.
* Each Pokémon has its own status screen sprite, for ease of use in the party screen or PC.

===Further additions in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}===
* Wireless communication between games (requires adapter boxed with FireRed and LeafGreen).
* The ability to move multiple Pokémon in the PC at once.
* The [[Sevii Islands]], a collection of nine islands that contain many Pokémon otherwise only found in the [[Johto]] region.

===Further additions in Emerald===
* [[Tag Battle]]s, where two opponent Trainers encounter the player at once and battle in a Double Battle.
* A {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}, adding to the original {{Gdis|Battle Tower|III}}, and featuring [[Frontier Brain|Trainers who head each facility]].

===Alterations from Generation II===
* The function of the [[time|built-in clock]] was greatly reduced. There are no cosmetic changes during different times of day and Pokémon appearances are not affected by time. Also, the day of the week is no longer tracked.
* The seven [[Poké Ball]]s made from [[Apricorn]]s, along with Apricorns themselves, are unavailable in Generation III.

==Regions==
===Hoenn===
[[File:HoennIIIE.png|thumb|250px|Hoenn]]
{{main|Hoenn}}
The [[Hoenn]] region, situated somewhat southwest of [[Johto]], was introduced in Generation III. It is more tropical than either [[Kanto]] or Johto, featuring {{rt|119|Hoenn|rainforests}}, {{rt|111|Hoenn|deserts}}, and [[Fiery Path|volcanic caves]], as well as areas deep [[underwater]].

This region's geography is mostly rural on the interior of the continent, with major cities springing up near its ample coasts. [[Route]]s between the cities can be treacherous, with densely-forested area covering much of the land. [[Legendary Pokémon]] are said to have created the region long ago, with its shape reminiscent of a {{wp|Taijitu|yin-yang symbol}} reflecting the balance between land and sea.

Several ancient ruins are found around the region; their purpose remains to be discovered by the player, though ancient writings found deep beneath the sea south of the region indicate that within them are ancient Pokémon who were sealed away due to their power.

====Starter Pokémon====
Like before, the starter trio follows the Grass-Fire-Water alignment, with new Pokémon {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, and {{p|Mudkip}} being the three Pokémon the player has to choose from to save [[Professor Birch]] from a wild {{p|Poochyena}} ({{p|Zigzagoon}} in {{v2|Emerald}}) at the start of the game.

====Gym Leaders====
Being that there are only 17 types, and [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]], during Generation I and II, had [[Gym]]s specializing in 16 of them, all of the types of the [[Gym Leader]]s of Hoenn are the same as that of a Gym Leader in one of the previous regions. As before, all Gym Leaders give out Badges and [[TM]]s on their defeat.

===Kanto===
[[File:FRLG Kanto.png|thumb|250px|Kanto]]
{{main|Kanto}}
Kanto, which in Generation II lacked some features from its original appearance, returned in a state closer to its original form in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, with all features from [[Generation I]] brought back and improved.

====Starter Pokémon====
As the Generation III games taking place in Kanto are remakes of Generation I games, the starters are the same as in that generation; they are the {{type|Grass}} {{p|Bulbasaur}}, the {{type|Fire}} {{p|Charmander}}, and the {{type|Water}} {{p|Squirtle}}.

====Gym Leaders====
Like the starter Pokémon, the Kanto Gym Leaders are also the same as they were before, with each giving out a TM for the player to use freely as well as their Badge.

===Sevii Islands===
{{main|Sevii Islands}}
The Sevii Islands, appearing only in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, are a smaller region without a [[Pokémon League]] where the player can journey later in the game. These islands make available many {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} to players of the Generation III games, and through events, allow for the capture of Generation II's [[version mascot]]s {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} and the mysterious Pokémon {{p|Deoxys}}.

==Other Generation III games==
[[Pokémon Colosseum]], for the [[Nintendo GameCube]], features a new land called [[Orre]] where several [[Generation II]] and Generation III Pokémon are altered by two teams called [[Cipher]] and [[Team Snagem]]. Players must "snag" the "[[Shadow Pokémon]]" and cure them of their darkness. Once this is completed, the Pokémon may be transferred to the other Generation III games. Pokémon Colosseum is the first 3D Pokémon RPG. This game also features an advanced [[Stadium Mode]] similar to those of the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Pokémon Stadium]] games.

{{g|Box Ruby & Sapphire}} is another Generation III game for the Nintendo GameCube. It allows:
* Storage of up to 1500 Pokémon from Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, LeafGreen and Emerald Versions.
* Playing Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire on the television through emulation.

[[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], also for the Nintendo GameCube, follows a storyline that takes place a few years after the story of Colosseum. It allows for snagging of rare Generation I, II, and III Pokémon as well, and includes a difficult-to-purify final Shadow Pokémon, a [[Shadow Lugia]].

Six spin-off Pokémon games are based on Generation III: [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]], [[Pokémon Dash]], {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, [[Pokémon Trozei!]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]].

==Discussion of Generation III==
While the opinion of the fandom shifts from time to time, Generation III is notable for drawing the most criticism for the series yet. The sense of a reboot when players were thrust into Hoenn (which excludes 184 of the older 251 Pokémon from availability) with no way to recover their old Pokémon drew ire from some fans. The game also saw a jump in newly-introduced legendary Pokémon, with 10 more introduced, a significant increase from Generation II, which only introduced 6.

Later games improved this, however, with Emerald's return to Hoenn being a welcome addition to the series (and including the first {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} in the series as well). FireRed and LeafGreen brought back nostalgic fans who decided to pass on Hoenn's primary paired versions, as well as bringing new fans to the Kanto region, only previously available in its fullest state on the [[Game Boy]].

===Hoenn thematic motif===
The third generation of Pokémon games were more directed towards nature and relationships. The three starters were collectively more symbolic to their elements than previous starters: {{p|Mudkip}} is based on a fish which thrives only in {{t|Water}}, {{p|Torchic}} is a chick (which, in the real world, needs warmth in order to hatch) holding its {{t|Fire}} internally, and {{p|Treecko}} is a gecko that lives only in forests with {{t|Grass}}. The main antagonists were either [[Team Magma]] and/or [[Team Aqua]] who want to expand the land or sea respectively. Once they awaken one of the legendary Pokémon {{p|Kyogre}} or {{p|Groudon}}, the world is flooded by rain or dried by drought. It's up to the player to set nature back on course by defeating their version's mascot or capturing it. Hoenn's people are far more attuned to nature than previous regions: [[Fortree City]] is built alongside Pokémon in the trees, while [[Pacifidlog Town]] is built on wooden rafts in the sea atop a {{p|Corsola}} colony, even though Corsola cannot be found there in the games. With {{m|Secret Power}}, a player can make a [[Secret Base]] out of trees, caves, or clumps of grass.

There are far more Pokémon that share relationships with other Pokémon in this generation of games, especially the legendary Pokémon. The [[legendary golems]] are more obvious of this; however, the version mascots all share a relationship as the [[weather trio]]. {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} are both Eon Pokémon that must be chased around the region. Pokémon such as {{p|Lunatone}}, {{p|Illumise}}, {{p|Plusle}}, and {{p|Wailord}} are related to other Pokémon, namely {{p|Solrock}}, {{p|Volbeat}}, {{p|Minun}}, and {{p|Relicanth}}, in relationships ranging from explicit to loose symbiosis, to intense rivalry in the case of {{p|Zangoose}} and {{p|Seviper}}.

==Trivia==
* Generation III introduced the most Abilities to the series, with {{tt|77|including Cacophony}}.
* Generation III was the first generation to:
**Include both a mother and [[Norman|father]] for the main character and the rival.
**Introduce two [[Weather trio|legendary]] [[Legendary golems|trios]].
**Introduce two {{pkmn2|Pseudo-legendary|pseudo-legendaries}}.
**Not introduce any new [[Eeveelution|evolutions]] for {{p|Eevee}}.
**Introduce a pure {{type|Steel}} and pure {{type|Ice}} Pokémon.
**Not allow the customization of a rival character's name.
**Have multiple paired versions, one set of which is a set of [[remake]]s.
* Generation III does not introduce any evolved forms of Pokémon from previous generations (a trait shared with [[Generation V]]), with the only cross-generational relatives being [[baby Pokémon]] {{p|Azurill}} and {{p|Wynaut}}.
* Generation III introduced the most Pokémon [[List of Pokémon that are not part of an evolutionary line|that are unable to evolve]], with a total of 21 at the time.
* Generation III has the largest number of total games, with fifteen. It is tied with [[Generation IV]] for the largest number of main series games, with five each.
* Starting with Generation III, [[Ken Sugimori]]'s art style shows noticeable differences from that of [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}}. This can be seen when comparing the artwork for {{ga|Red}}, {{ga|Ethan}}, and {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|Generation I}} and {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|II}} Pokémon from their original games to that of those games' remakes.
* Most of the Generation III Pokémon that are not in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] have only one sprite in the [[Generation IV]] games. {{cat|Generation IV Pokémon}} received sprite updates in {{game|Platinum}}, while Generation I and II Pokémon received updates in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Almost all the backsprites of non-Generation III Pokémon are revamps of the backsprites in the [[Generation II]] games.
* Generation III is the longest generation in North America, lasting slightly over four years.
* All of Generation III's games for the Game Boy Advance were in the Top 10 selling games for the GBA, with Ruby and Sapphire coming first, FireRed and LeafGreen second, Emerald third, and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team coming ninth.{{fact}}
* Generation III is the only generation not able to communicate with games from the previous generation.

Talk:Poison (status condition)

2014-12-12T00:01:51Z

Ki:

== Bad image ==

I think the image for this article--Ash's Gliscor poisoned--is a poor example of the Poison status ailment and should be replaced. I mean, I can't even tell what's going on; are those skyblue bubbles his eyes (like when cartoons get punched their eyes bulge out of their head)?

I personally suggest using a screenshot from the video game, like this one ([http://www.serebii.net/games/poison.png link]) which shows the key aspects of being poisoned: the "PSN" icon, purple-tinted Pokémon, and the poison bubbles popping above its head. -- [[User:Nick15|Nick15]] 23:59, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
:Gliscors glows purple and bubbles start to appear, just like the games. I can't see how it's a poor example.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F''']][[Reshiram (Pokémon)|orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F''']][[Zekrom (Pokémon)|ire]] 02:37, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
::I'm with OP, it's impossible to recognize. I'd go with an in-game image of a poisoned pokemon of the most recent generation, right now being gen V. -- [[User:Kirixa|Kirixa]] 17:27, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

== Twineedle ==

The Twineedle_(move) article states that both Steel-type and Poison-type Pokémon can be poisoned by Twineedle, but in this article only Steel-type is mentioned to have this weekness. --[[User:SHoggard|sHoggard - rookie Pokéwiz]] 08:39, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
:Someone was testing this a while ago for me, and they couldn't poison a Poison type with Twineedle. I think it is only Steel types. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:28, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

== Poison in the anime ==

Ok, I'm not the first to notice this, I'm totally sure. But, uh, isn't the way normal poison completely different than the way it is seen in the battle between Ash and Paul in the Sinnoh League? Usually, the Poison is seen as a typical fever or something. Yet, in the battle, it was shown to be exactly the way it appears in the game (and is a much more accurate way). Should this be noted? [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 23:55, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
:The Sinnoh League seemed to have everything act more like the games. Spikes acted like the games rather than its previous depictions, and moves that wouldn't usually be seen due to their difficulty to explain in-universe, like Trick Room and Power Trick, were used. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:28, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

== Badly poisoned count between battles ==

If a badly poisoned Pokémon gets up to, say, its third round of being badly poisoned, then leaves the battle, it will still be badly poisoned when it enters its next battle. Will it start at round 4 of being badly poisoned, or will that reset itself between battles? ~ [[User:Serial Colour|Serial Colour]] 16:24, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
:"Switching a badly poisoned Pokémon out or a battle ending will turn the badly poisoned status into normal poison." --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 16:47, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
:: Gen V: "Switching a Pokémon out no longer changes the status to normal poison." ~ [[User:Serial Colour|Serial Colour]] 16:56, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
:::That only applies to switching. Bad poison turns to normal poison after battle. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 17:05, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
:::: Ah, okay. I thought because the Pokémon had come out of battle, it would remain badly poisoned indefinitely, not just until the end of that battle. I assume the bad poison count is saved during the battle, so that if my example switched back in later on it would be at count 4. A bit of rewording of the article is in order, then. ~ [[User:Serial Colour|Serial Colour]] 17:08, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

== Wait. ==

Is it just me, or regular and bad poison have different animation in Gen IV? [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 19:40, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
:I'm not seeing it, but it could be there. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 03:04, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
::It is there. There's one extra toxic bubble added. --[[User:YoshisWorld|'''☆Yoshis''']][[User talk:YoshisWorld|'''World☆''']] 12:40, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
:::Oh. Now just wait to Archives to be available again. ARGH IT'S LIKE 6 (14 if counting since 20th, "the original lock") days since Pedia is unlocked but Archives aren't. ;___; [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 12:47, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

==Gen V pic==
So, Poison types still can't be poisoned, right? But isn't that Dustox poisoned? I'm slightly confused. [[User:Ikarishipper900|Ikarishipper900]] 15:49, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
:I'm assuming it was poisoned by changing its type then poisoning it. However, I think it is not a good idea to use it as an example. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 16:25, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

== Gen IV pic ==

The picture for Gen IV still shows a poisoned Dustox. Is this some sort of fan craze or something? That should be changed too. '''''[[Shadow Sneak (move)|Sneaking]] from page to page... It's the page-editing purple ghost... [[User:Gengarzilla|Gengar]][[User talk:Gengarzilla|zilla!]]''''' 15:01, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
:It's probably just a poisoned Cascoon evolved into a Dustox. It would probably be better to use a Pokémon that is not Steel or Poison though. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 15:41, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
::Yeah, that's what I was getting at. '''''[[Shadow Sneak (move)|Sneaking]] from page to page... It's the page-editing purple ghost... [[User:Gengarzilla|Gengar]][[User talk:Gengarzilla|zilla!]]''''' 15:42, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

== My Pokémon survived !! ==

I was playing my Platinum version and my Grotle got poisoned, but after I walked they said " Grotle survived the poison. The poison faded away! " WHAAAT ?!!! {{unsigned|Youssef The Lucario}}
:That's how it works in Gen IV. In first three Generations, the poison damage outside the battle drops the HP until Pokémon faints, in Gen IV it drops until it reaches 1, and it was totally removed in Gen V, making it more like Burn but without the Attack reduction. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 22:42, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

== Toxic damage counter ==

In the 'Other in-game effects' section, it says, ''"If a poisoned Pokémon gains the Ability Immunity through the use of Skill Swap, Trace or another method, the poison or bad poison status will be removed, but once Immunity is lost, the poison status will be regained, with bad poison keeping its damage counter."''

Does this mean that the counter will resume from the point it was before the Pokémon gained Immunity, or will the counter count all of the turns that the Pokémon had Immunity as well? And is there a better way of phrasing it to indicate that? [[User:Ki|Ki]] ([[User talk:Ki|talk]]) 00:01, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Walda

2014-12-08T04:57:24Z

Ki:

==Screenshot==

Can anyone get a pic of Walda's room for me? We'd really be able to expand the article.[[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 03:21, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
:I've uploaded a pic. It's pretty small but at least it's something.[[User:ElectricRat|ElectricRat]] 22:18, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
::Thanks a ton. I haven't played Emerald for a while. [[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 23:55, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

==She's sick?==

I thought that it was just that she was a new baby and that's why she's in bed. (Despite using the same sprite as little girls)

Here's what the father says(At least in the English version):

''Oh, hello! Welcome to the PEPPER household. I have a question for you. Have you ever baby-sat? You see, I'm a new father, so raising a child is all new to me. And I have a problem. My daughter WALDA doesn't laugh enough. I think she'd laugh for me if I told her something funny. Do you know of a funny word of phrase you can tell me?'' --[[User:ElectricRat|ElectricRat]] 16:24, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
:You do know what baby-sitting is right?--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:09, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
::So which is it? I'm confuzzled. --[[User:Pringles|Pringles]] ''([[User talk:Pringles|Discussions]])'' 19:58, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

== Wally counterpart ==

Could she be a counterpart to [[Wally]]? They're both sick, and they both get cheered up somewhat... They have similar names, too. [[User:Pringles|A delicious, low-sugar potato/rice crisp]] 02:31, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

== Walda Pepper? ==

Since Walda's full name is Walda Pepper, should we move this page to [[Walda Pepper]]? We generally use the full names of characters when applicable, even ones with bit parts (i.e. [[Characters of the day]]). - [[User:Chosen|Chosen]] of [[User talk:Chosen|Mana]] 16:49, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

- Not necessarily, they're the Pepper ''household'', not Pepper family. This means they're not related as in two parents and a kid, they're just friends. And it's possible that "pepper" only refers to them being hotheaded, not any family identifiers. Maybe that "dad" is actually just in his late twenties, and that "mom" is just in her mid-twenties, as before Diamond and Pearl, sprites actually looked nothing like the appearance of the character. And he could have be born looking bald and not being able to grow any hair there, seeing as some gym leaders have weirder hair than a premature baldness. While Walda does look like an younger kid, she might be just small, so maybe she's around 17-18 living with two twenty-somethings. And for the man calling himself a "new father"... maybe the man and woman consider Walda to be like their daughter? So it's just a 28-year-old man with a bald-looking sprite, a 26-year-old woman with a sprite making her look like she has motherly curves, and a short 17-year-old girl who fell ill from a Pokèmon attack just the day after moving in with the other two. Maybe she's a Pokèmon trainer, maybe the Pokèdolls actually being her Pokèmon (but with sprites not making them looking like how they actually look) and having started her journey years ago, being from another region like Sinnoh. It's possible that this type of households are common in the Pokèmon world. Maybe the reason you live with Mom in the games is not because you live with your mom, but because you happen to live with an unrelated trainer whose name happens to be Mom. (i do not actually believe that, though...)--[[User:Kaiko Mikkusu|Kaiko Mikkusu]] ([[User talk:Kaiko Mikkusu|talk]]) 22:33, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

== Seriously ==

IS she a counterpart to Wally, like I said a year and a half ago? They both are really sick, the player helps that in some way, their names are pretty close, they're both exclusive to Gen III. Isn't there some similarity here, something significant? Please, somebody, confirm my suspicions. - [[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 20:40, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
:I doubt it. Their Japanese names aren't similar, the way you help her out (putting in codes for wallpaper) isn't particularly similar to the way you help Wally (helping him catch Pokemon/battling with him) and she doesn't do anything particularly important enough that they'd be likely to be a counterpart. --[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 20:44, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

== Still a stub? ==

Why is this in the stub category, is this level of detail still considered a stub? It looks pretty thorough to me. [[User:Ki|Ki]] ([[User talk:Ki|talk]]) 04:57, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

Cail

2014-12-08T03:30:26Z

Ki: Sorry, left a formatting error on my previous edit.

{{samename|Kail of the [[Pokémon anime]]|Invincible Pokémon Brothers}}
----
[[File:Cail Colo.png|thumb|right|150px|Cail in Colosseum]]'''Cail''' (Japanese: '''マサ''' ''Masa'') is a Rogue that appears in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. He has green hair and wears a black jumpsuit. He stands at the entrance of [[Pyrite Town]] for the duration of the game and will battle [[Wes]] several times throughout it. He is a good but unwilling source of information who only "spills the beans" upon being defeated in battle. He is the only character in the games to have the [[Trainer class]] '''Rogue''' (Japanese: '''ゴロツキ''' ''Rogue'').

==History==
He is first seen when Wes and [[Rui]] first enter Pyrite Town. He tricks [[Officer Johnson]] into letting him go with only a warning. As Johnson walks away, Cail chuckles at the man's incompetence.

Later, after Wes has visited the [[Pyrite Colosseum]] and hears about Cail having an odd {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from a local {{tc|Hunter}}, Wes approaches Cail and they battle. After losing, Cail gripes about being scammed by Miror B.s claim about [[Shadow Pokémon]] and tells Wes that he got his own Shadow Pokémon (a {{p|Furret}}) from the Pyrite Colosseum.

After Wes has defeated [[Miror B.]] Cail will battle him again and will have evolved his three normal Pokémon and replaced his Furret with a {{p|Granbull}}. He will battle as many times as the player wishes, one just has to leave town and come back.

After Wes has defeated [[Evice]] he receives and e-mail on his [[P★DA]] from [[Secc]]. He goes to meet him and he tells him that Cail saw a strange Pokémon. Cail and Wes battle, with Cail losing again and telling Wes that he battled a Trainer in a flashy outfit who used a Shadow Pokémon. It will be the Pokémon that is strong against the [[Johto]] [[Starter Pokémon]] that Wes chose to Snag in [[Phenac City]]. Cail directs Wes to [[Snagem Hideout]]. During this battle, all of Cail's applicable Pokémon will have evolved again.

After that battle, for an unknown reason, Cail's levels and evolutions revert to what they were after Wes defeated Miror B.

In Pokémon XD, Cail is the self-appointed gatekeeper of Pyrite Town. When spoken to, Cail claims that will not let [[Michael]] into Pyrite Town without a battle, although it is entirely possible to just run right past him. Other than that, he plays no significant role.

[[File:Cail Colo.png|thumb|right|150px|Cail in Colosseum]]'''Cail''' (Japanese: '''マサ''' ''Masa'') is a Rogue that appears in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. He has green hair and wears a black jumpsuit. He stands at the entrance of [[Pyrite Town]] for the duration of the game and will battle [[Wes]] several times throughout it. He is a good but unwilling source of information who only "spills the beans" upon being defeated in battle. He is the only character in the games to have the [[Trainer class]] '''Rogue''' (Japanese: '''ゴロツキ''' ''Rogue'').

==History==
He is first seen when Wes and [[Rui]] first enter Pyrite Town. He tricks [[Officer Johnson]] into letting him go with only a warning. As Johnson walks away, Cail chuckles at the man's incompetence.

Later, after Wes has visited the [[Pyrite Colosseum]] and hears about Cail having an odd {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from a local {{tc|Hunter}}, Wes approaches Cail and they battle. After losing, Cail gripes about being scammed by Miror B.s claim about [[Shadow Pokémon]] and tells Wes that he got his own Shadow Pokémon (a {{p|Furret}}) from the Pyrite Colosseum.

After Wes has defeated [[Miror B.]] Cail will battle him again and will have evolved his three normal Pokémon and replaced his Furret with a {{p|Granbull}}. He will battle as many times as the player wishes, one just has to leave town and come back.

[[File:Cail XD.png|thumb|left|250px|Cail as the Pyrite Town Gatekeeper in ''Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness'']]
After Wes has defeated [[Evice]] he receives and e-mail on his [[P★DA]] from [[Secc]]. He goes to meet him and he tells him that Cail saw a strange Pokémon. Cail and Wes battle, with Cail losing again and telling Wes that he battled a Trainer in a flashy outfit who used a Shadow Pokémon. It will be the Pokémon that is strong against the [[Johto]] [[Starter Pokémon]] that Wes chose to Snag in [[Phenac City]]. Cail directs Wes to [[Snagem Hideout]]. During this battle, all of Cail's applicable Pokémon will have evolved again.

After that battle, for an unknown reason, Cail's levels and evolutions revert to what they were after Wes defeated Miror B.

In Pokémon XD, Cail is the self-appointed gatekeeper of Pyrite Town. When spoken to, Cail claims that will not let [[Michael]] into Pyrite Town without a battle, although it is entirely possible to just run right past him. Other than that, he plays no significant role.

A '''Rider''' (Japanese: '''ライダー''' ''Rider'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation III]] games, appearing in {{g|Colosseum}}. There are male and female versions, and they appear to be men and women in cowboy outfits. Like many of [[Orre]]'s Trainer classes, they do not specialize in any particular strategy or Pokémon.

The first Trainer that [[Wes]] battles in Pokémon Colosseum is Rider [[Willie]], who battles with two {{p|Zigzagoon}}. He is seen again in {{Pokémon XD}}.

A '''Newscaster''' (Japanese: '''ニュースキャスター''' ''Newscaster'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation III]] games, appearing in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD}}. Like many of [[Orre]]'s Trainer classes, they do not specialize in any particular strategy or Pokémon.

They are similar to {{tc|Reporter}}s.

In Colosseum, Newscasters could only be battled in Colosseums, and the only one with a name was [[Ancha]], who appeared at the very end of the game at the battle with [[Fein]]. In {{Pokémon XD}}, Ancha now works for [[ONBS]], and Newscasters can be found at [[Mt. Battle]].

A '''Hunter''' (Japanese: '''ハンター''' ''Hunter'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation III]] games, appearing in {{g|Colosseum}}. They are depicted as men wearing hunting gear and goggles. There is also a female variation with bright blue hair and overalls, orange undershirt, as well as a brown vest and boots. [[Miror B. Peon]]s [[Reath]] and [[Ferma]] resemble the female variation. Like many of [[Orre]]'s Trainer classes, they do not specialize in any particular strategy or Pokémon.

== Game Systems ==
There any many emulators of Nintendo Gaming Systems. Shouldn't Bulbapedia have a small article about that since users play Pokemon Games on their PCs too ? [[User:PikaTepig999|PikaTepig999]] ([[User talk:PikaTepig999|talk]]) 10:14, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
:The use of emulators and ROMs are a copyright violation and are used for illegal gameplay of Pokémon games, something that Bulbapedia or Bulbagarden as a whole, shouldn't be promoting. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 15:15, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you, but I need to know how to post my favorite song on my namespace to where it don't look confusing. {{unsigned|Pnjfandubs}}
:I'm going to to need a little more information in order for me to try to help. Are trying to post it as a link? In an infobox?

'''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 00:37, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

== Editing request ==

Can you edit my userspace to where the text about me is in the right place, and that my favorite song shows? My favorite song is [[Pokémon Ondo]]. [[User:Pnjfandubs|PNJスターデオの月山ニ郎]] ([[User talk:Pnjfandubs|talk]]) 03:25, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
Well, actually, you wouldn't have my favorite song here, but it's my favorite as far as Pokémon music. [[User:Pnjfandubs|PNJスターデオの月山ニ郎]] ([[User talk:Pnjfandubs|talk]]) 03:31, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

== Jessie's Woobat ==

Why is the trivia being taken down? {{unsigned|Rahl}}
:Other editors have given reasons such as "she has all of four Pokemon with confirmed genders, though it's not really necessary to note on this page regardless" and it being "too obvious". '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 23:00, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
Okay then explain about Emolga's trivia being the only confirmed female in Iris's team. {{unsigned|Rahl}}
:It'd be best to ask the users who reverted you, since they were the ones who removed the trivia in question. Or, read the history of the page where all the edit summaries are listed. Also, please remember to sign with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 00:25, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

== New unimportantly Pokémon-related page I added ==

I'm surprised y'all haven't deleted and warned me about {{redlink|Pokémon Dubstep}}. {{unsigned|Pnjfandubs}}
:It's one thing to create a bad article while trying to contribute the site, but it's another to knowingly create a bad article and taunt the administration about it.

'''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 01:08, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
"and taunt the administration about it": I didn't know that was taunting. Also, I didn't exactly know how to write it well.

== That Talk Page HP Bar ==

So, I've seen this on alot of user talk pages around here, and I have not been able to figure it out. Perhaps you can explain to me how that bar works and how to implement one of my own? Because I am ''really'' curious about that. [[User:Schiffy|Schiffy]] ([[User_talk:Schiffy|Speak to me]]|[[Special:Contributions/Schiffy|What I've done]]) 00:27, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
:It's basically a template that's built to decrease as your talk page fills up (though there are versions where you can manually update the number as well). The best example I can show you is [[User:Werdnae/Archive|here]]. Kinda hard to explain exactly how it works, but that's an example of the coding for it, I'm sure you could probably manipulate it to personalize it to your liking. I hope this helps, I'm not the best with explaining templates and such. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 00:38, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

== Espurr ==

I thought I was undoing Pokemon nomekop's edit, but it seemed I wasn't and I didn't notice that...and then I tried to just use a previous version of the page and it got an error... So I'll leave that to others now. =( Sorry. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:47, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

::I actually see what happened. Your edit had the same timestamp, but even though (by its ID) it occurred later, it was listed below Pokemon nomekop's, so I thought his was most recent and tried to undo it and...actually, I don't really know how that ended up restoring his edit then, but yeah... Still, I didn't actually check the page, I was just looking at contribs/history. Oops. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:55, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

:The number to become autoconfirmed is unspecified in order to prevent people from abusing the system and editing just enough to create a userpage.

== Question on Name Origin Policies and Disputes ==

A Name Origin dispute has occurred on the {{p|Aggron}} page between myself and Relicant. Boss is already listed as one of the possible derivatives of the name Bossgodora. I put that the god in Bossgodora could derive from ''"Godfather"'' which beyond meaning a crime boss also has less ''"Tony, the don says take him for a ride and give him a pair cement shoes"'' meanings. However, Relicant repeatedly undid the edit, saying he did not see it and did not further deliberate on it.

Anyways, what is the best course of action in this dispute? I tried looking for the policies page but I am not the most tech-savy and couldn't navigate the site to find it. Even if i did, I am afraid I am also not the best when it comes to reading what I suspect would be a confusing wall of text. I am vaguely sure if I were to undo their edit again it would violate a policy (not sure, I just vaguely have memory of a three-edit limit on something) Well, I'm off to warm up my new 2DS before charging it (again, not a tech-savey person but I am pretty sure it being freezing cold from the UPS truck, its not a good idea to plug it in right away) -cheers! [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 19:37, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
:The best and most immediate action would be to bring up the dispute on the talk page and discuss your reasoning for including it, so others can have a chance to comment their opinions on it as well, then see how that goes before deciding whether or not to add it to the page again. It'd be wise not to add it back anymore for now as an additional revision would be getting into edit war territory. There's no real policy specifically for Name Origin sections (If I'm recalling correctly), we just try to use our best judgement in that area. I hope this helps and let me know if you're having any more issues with this. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 19:45, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

==Archive?==
Just a quick question. What does archive mean? I kinda don't really know what that means. Can you explain that to me of what mean. Also, I apologize for removing that comments on my talk page, I forgot that It was one of the rules of not to do that on my talk page, It was my mistake. Thanks for reminding me, I won't remove them anymore again. [[User:Marioiscool765|Marioiscool765]] ([[User talk:Marioiscool765|talk]]) 23:46, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
:You can archive your talk page by clicking the move tab, then renaming your talk page "User talk:Marioiscool1765/Archive 1" or something along those lines. You may then start new with the original, (just remove the redirect link once you're complete). Let me know if you have any further questions. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 23:58, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

== Editing for blocked users ==

Well, what do you know... I thought it was okay to do it if it was unrelated to the reason of blocking. I'm sorry, it won't happen again. --[[User:Gabo 2oo|Gabo 2oo]] ([[User talk:Gabo 2oo|talk]]) 04:31, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

== My2ndaccount ==

That username might mean a sockpuppet of the original one or the user might have created a first one in another site. I'll let you decide on that since I don't have the authority to determine if the username is bad or not. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 05:16, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

I want to upload a new version of [[a:File:Missingno_glitch_walking_players.png]], but I don't quite know how.

:Firstly, all image uploads are handled on the [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page Bulbagarden Archives]. You can become autoconfirmed by editing pages and helping out with small tasks on both the Archives and Bulbapedia (though they're separate, so being autoconfirmed on one doesn't necessarily equal being autoconfirmed on the other. Another factor is how new to the site you are. Since it looks like you only just registered, you're going to have to spend a little more time editing first before you can become autoconfirmed.

== Learnset Template error ==

Ok so I recently discovered the form=mega tag, where it makes the legend read "Italic indicates a move that gets STAB only when used by a Mega Evolution of <Pokémon>"

So I started adding it to the Pokémon who now have Mega Evolution, so that their articles would properly reflect this change if appropriate.

However, I noticed that if there are no moves that a Pokémon would get stab for while in a Mega evolved state, the legend will read "Italic indicates a move that gets STAB only when used by an evolution of <Pokémon>"

I thought I would bring the issue up since this could be misleading to less knowledgeable editors and readers. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 04:56, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

== Gen VI effect - same or different? ==

I've demonstrated that {{m|Trick-or-Treat}} adds a Ghost type ''without'' replacing the Pokemon's original typing (yes, Trick-or-Treat + dual-typed Pokemon = three-typed Pokemon). Since Soak is a move of similar purpose, can somebody check how it works in [[Pokemon X and Y]]?

Namely, we need to know:
* Check if it works or fails against an already-Water-typed Pokemon.
* Soak a pure Ground type (e.g. {{p|Diglett}} family) and check if they are vulnerable to Electric or Ice.
* Soak a dual-Ground type (e.g. {{p|Geodude}} or {{p|Rhyhorn}} families) and check if they are vulnerable to Electric or Ice.

In Generation V, Soaking any Pokemon meant they became pure Water (vulnerable to Electric, resistant to Ice), but if this move was changed to a Water-type variation of Trick-or-Treat, Grounders should retain the immunity to Electric and lose the vulnerability to Ice. --''[[User:Stratelier|Stratelier]]'' 18:48, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

I had to check another source to see if Soak's effect persisted even if the "Soaked" Pokémon switched out, which it does not. The wording of this sentence: "Soak changes the target's type to pure Water; the effect lasts as long as the target is in battle", makes it vague (in my opinion) as to what "in battle" specifically means. Is there a way we could change the wording so as to make that more clear? [[User:Ki|Ki]] ([[User talk:Ki|talk]]) 19:45, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
