If they meant Turquoise Mask, they'd have said Ao, Aomidori, or Seiryokushoku, not Midori. I know that English and other languages have chosen to translate it more in the Cyan-range (Teal, Turquoise, etc), but when depicting Japanese text in our English articles, we should strive for accurate transliteration.</p>

'''The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask''' (Japanese: '''ゼロの{{ruby|秘|ひ}}{{ruby|宝|ほう}}前編・{{ruby|碧|みどり}}の{{ruby|仮面|かめん}}''' ''The Hidden Treasure of Zero Part 1: The Green Mask'') is the first expansion in [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]] [[DLC]] for {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. It was released on September 13, 2023 at 10 a.m. JST.<br />
<br />
It is followed by [[The Indigo Disk]]. In order to begin the main story of The Teal Mask, the player must have reached the start of the Treasure Hunt in the main story of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/dlc_intro/</ref><br />
<br />
==Plot==<br />
{{spoilers}}<br />
[[Jacq]] contacts the {{player}}, informing them that they, along with three other students, have been chosen to partake in a trip to the land of [[Kitakami]] in the east. Guiding the academy students to this new land is [[Briar]], a teacher from [[Naranja Academy]]'s{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]'s{{sup/9|V}} sister school in [[Unova]], [[Blueberry Academy]]. Introducing herself to the player, Briar reveals that she is a descendant of {{ga|Heath}} and posseses an uncensored manuscript of the [[Scarlet Book]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Violet Book]]{{sup/9|V}} that he wrote, which mentions a Pokémon called {{p|Terapagos}}, which she hopes to find in order to restore the creditability of Heath's name. However, she is still waiting to obtain permission to enter [[Area Zero]] from the [[Paldea League|Pokémon League]].<br />
<br />
With all the chosen students gathered, the trip to Kitakami begins. Upon arriving in the foreign land, the player makes their way to [[Mossui Town]] and meets [[Carmine]] and [[Kieran]], local siblings who are also students at Blueberry Academy, with the former acting aggressively towards foreigners and her timid younger brother. Once the students have settled down at the local community center, their [[caretaker]] tasks them with forming interschool pairs and finding three signboards around Kitakami and reading the tale they describe. At Carmine's suggestion, the player forms a pair with Kieran and visits the first two signboards, which describe the tale of the trio of Pokémon known as the [[Loyal Three]] and an ogre they sacrificed their lives fighting against years ago. Unlike his sister, however, Kieran is a fan of the ogre, and takes the player to visit its supposed home, the [[Dreaded Den]], on [[Oni Mountain]].<br />
<br />
The player and Kieran choose to leave finding the last signboard until the next day in order to participate in the first day of the yearly celebration known as the [[Festival of Masks]], where the Loyal Three are honored. During the celebration, the player and Carmine have an unexpected encounter with the ogre, {{ga|Ogerpon}}, who accidentally drops her [[Teal Mask]]. Carmine chooses to keep the encounter a secret from her brother for now. The next day, the player shows the mask to Kieran and Carmine’s grandfather [[Yukito and Hideko|Yukito]], who reveals the true story of Ogerpon and the Loyal Three: ages ago, a man arrived in Kitakami with Ogerpon, but they were shunned due to their unusual appearances, forcing them to live on Oni Mountain. Only the village's mask maker pitied them, creating them a set of masks adorned with jewels the man had brought with him, which allowed the man and Ogerpon to hide their faces and take part in the village festival. However, the word of the beautiful masks attracted the [[Loyal Three|three greedy Pokémon]] to Kitakami. They attacked the man and stole three of the four masks he tried to protect. Finding her home in ruins, Ogerpon, full of anger, donned the remaining mask, found the three Pokémon with the masks they had stolen, and defeated them. The townspeople, not understanding what had happened, assumed the three Pokémon had fallen trying to protect them from the violent ogre and named them the Loyal Three. Ogerpon subsequently returned to the mountain alone and was not seen again.<br />
<br />
Carmine is outraged upon finding out that the people of Kitakami have been worshipping evil Pokémon for all this time, but Yukito tells her not to reveal the secret to anyone, as the mask maker, who had known the truth, had been labeled as a heretic for speaking against the Loyal Three in the past. Since the Teal Mask was chipped when it was dropped, the player leaves it for Yukito to be repaired while they visit the last signboard with Kieran, unaware that he had secretly listened to his grandfather's story and is feeling betrayed for having been lied to regarding the player's encounter with Ogerpon. The next day, the player and Carmine visit the [[Crystal Pool]] at the summit of Oni Mountain to gather a [[Crystal Cluster]] required to fix the Teal Mask. At the summit, the player has a brief encounter with Briar, who reveals that the crystals found there emit energy similar to [[Terastal energy]], which she hopes to use to make the [[Terastal phenomenon]] usable outside of [[Paldea]].<br />
<br />
Upon returning to Mossui Town, the player and Carmine find out that Kieran has stolen the Teal Mask. Chasing him down to [[Loyalty Plaza]], he accuses the player and Carmine for treating him no better than the townspeople of the past treated Ogerpon, and challenges the player to a {{pkmn|battle}} over the mask. Upon losing, Kieran punches the Loyal Three Monument in rage and returns the Teal Mask before running away. Suddenly, a burst of light erupts from the monument, and the Loyal Three are inexplicably resurrected from their grave. They make their way to [[Kitakami Hall]], where the townspeople, still unaware of the truth, hand [[Hearthflame Mask|the]] [[Wellspring Mask|three]] [[Cornerstone Mask|masks]] kept there to them and feed them [[mochi]], making them bigger and more powerful. After saving Ogerpon from the Loyal Three, the player and Carmine set out to retrieve the masks, while Kieran stays behind to do something else.<br />
<br />
The player and Carmine track down the empowered Loyal Three and defeat them, retrieving Ogerpon's masks one by one. Once they're done, Kieran tells them to come back to Mossui Town, where he's succeeded in convincing the townspeople of Ogerpon and the Loyal Three's true natures, clearing Ogerpon's name. The player, Carmine, and Kieran escort Ogerpon back to her home, where she expresses her desire to come with the player. Kieran suddenly demands that he should get to be Ogerpon's partner instead and challenges the player to a battle over her. After defeating Kieran, the player proceeds to battle Ogerpon with all of her masks and {{pkmn2|Caught|catch}} her. Distraught, Kieran runs away and locks himself in his room. After one more battle with Carmine, the player is informed that Briar, Carmine, and Kieran are heading back to Blueberry Academy early due to a development involving the [[Great Crater of Paldea]], though Carmine invites the player to come and see them again [[The Indigo Disk|later]]. Back at Blueberry Academy, Kieran continues obsessing over getting strong enough to defeat the player and starts preparing for their next battle.<br />

The [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Ogerpon}} debuts in The Teal Mask.

<br />
===New activities===<br />
====Timeless Woods====<br />
A side quest in [[Kitakami]] involves the player working together with [[Perrin]] in the Timeless Woods, an area in Kitakami where people rarely visit. The main goal is to help Perrin look for a mysterious Pokémon, revealed to be {{form|Ursaluna|Bloodmoon}} {{p|Ursaluna}}. The player will take snapshots of Pokémon living in the forest while searching for the mysterious Pokémon.<ref name="twoods" /> The side quest is unlocked after capturing 150 Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Kitakami Pokédex number|Kitakami Pokédex]] and speaking to Perrin.<br />
<br />
====Ogre Oustin’====<br />
[[Ogre Oustin']] is a minigame the player can participate in, which involves the player collecting [[Berry|Berries]] by popping Ogre Balloons while riding {{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}} and bringing them back to the Berry Tables for points. Up to three other players can join either online or via local play. Some tasks players can focus on are collecting far-away Berries or driving away greedy Pokémon seeking to eat the collected berries. The reward for finishing the minigame is [[Mochi]].<ref name="newways">https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_ways_to_play/</ref> Clearing all three difficulty levels of Ogre Oustin' grants the player a {{Shiny}} {{p|Munchlax}} as a reward.<br />
<br />
====Mass outbreak events====<br />
Limited-time [[mass outbreak]] events differ from a normal mass outbreak, in which the same species of a Pokémon will appear in multiple mass outbreaks for a limited time as part of an online event. Pokémon in these outbreaks will have a higher chance of having a [[Mark]] without the added effects of a [[Sandwich]]. The first Mass Outbreak Event announced featured {{p|Clefairy}}, which ran from {{DL|Poké Portal News|September 29 to October 1, 2023}} in both [[Paldea]] and [[Kitakami]].<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/mass_outbreaks/</ref><br />
<br />
====Kitakami Ogre Clan====<br />
[[Kitakami Ogre Clan]] members are eight Trainers that specialize in a [[type]] or a specific battle style. As the name suggests, members are exclusively found across [[Kitakami]] and are significantly more challenging compared to other {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es in the game. The player will need to defeat seven members to be able to challenge the eighth member. The first seven will have four Pokémon each, two of which will have a [[held item]]. The eighth Trainer will award the player with items commonly used for competitive battling, an item for each member defeated, and will also battle the player with a team of five, three of which will have a held item.<br />
<br />
===Moves===<br />
Several new moves have been introduced for The Teal Mask. <br />
* {{m|Syrup Bomb}}, the [[signature move]] of {{p|Dipplin}}.<ref name="dipp" /><br />
* {{m|Blood Moon}}, the signature move of Bloodmoon {{p|Ursaluna}}.<br />
* {{m|Matcha Gotcha}}, the signature move of {{p|Sinistcha}}.<br />

Turquoise is usually written 青緑色 ( せいりょくしょく Sei-ryoku-shoku = Blue-Green-Color) or as 青緑 ( あおみどり Ao-Midori = Blue-Green), or トルコ石色 (トルコいしいろ Turquoise-Stone-Color). Yes, some other languages like French call this the Turquoise Mask, but Midori alone as a word was invented in Japanese to disambiguate Greens from Blues. If the Japanese name intended Turquoise (or the similar Teal and Cyan), it would have been Ao Mask or Aomidori Mask or whatnot.</p>

'''Ogerpon ''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オーガポン''' ''Ogerpon'') is a {{type|Grass}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced during [[Generation IX]], in [[The Teal Mask]].<br />
<br />
While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Ogerpon has four [[#Form data|forms]] which are determined by the mask it is wearing. Each mask changes its [[type]] and comes with its own unique [[Terastal phenomenon#Unique Terastallized states|Terastallized state]].<br />
<br />
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Teal Mask]] by default, it is in its '''Teal Mask''' form, and is a pure {{type|Grass}} (regardless of whether it is in the Terastallized state or not).<br />
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Wellspring Mask]], it is in its '''Wellspring Mask''' form, and is dual-type {{2t|Grass|Water}} normally, becoming pure Water-type in its Terastallized state.<br />
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Hearthflame Mask]], it is in its '''Hearthflame Mask''' form, and is dual-type {{2t|Grass|Fire}} normally, becoming pure Fire-type in its Terastallized state.<br />
* While Ogerpon is wearing the [[Cornerstone Mask]], it is in its '''Cornerstone Mask''' form, and is dual-type {{2t|Grass|Rock}} normally, becoming pure Rock-type in its Terastallized state.<br />
<br />
Teal Mask Ogerpon is the [[game mascot]] of [[The Teal Mask]], appearing in [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]]. It is associated with the [[Loyal Three]] and their leader, {{p|Pecharunt}}, and it is the last Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Kitakami Pokédex number|Kitakami Pokédex]].<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
Ogerpon is a predominantly green, humanoid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Its green torso is spotted with white flowers and yellow dots, and it is capable of extending prehensile branches and vines of ivy. Its long legs have an outer layer of black, but otherwise appear as if split from a tree trunk: their innermost sides are flat and of a woody ash-brown color. The soles of its two-toed feet are also of this color, and show matching portions of {{wp|Dendrochronology|growth rings}}. Between the toes on each foot, two green leaves sprout, evoking the image of {{wp|Zori#Hanao|''hanao'' sandal thongs}}. Its torso is mostly covered by a large, green, multicolored cloak-like structure that extends from a stem on top of its head. This cloak frames its face with a large, black, thorny vine, the two uppermost thorns resembling horns. The cloak appears prehensile, and its "sleeves" serve as Ogerpon's arms, able to grasp and manipulate objects; Ogerpon is never seen without the cloak. Ogerpon has an orange face, yellow eyes with white, star-shaped pupils and small green leaves at the edges that loosely resemble eyelashes, a three-pointed leaf that serves as hair, small black markings on its eyebrows and cheeks, and two pointed fangs in its upper jaw. Its face is usually hidden behind [[:Category:Masks|one of its masks]], and in {{Pkmn|battle}}, it wields {{m|Ivy Cudgel|a large, spiky cudgel wrapped in ivy}}; these tools are stored under its cloak when not in use.<br />
<br />
{{Spoilers}}<br />
Ogerpon is a very intelligent Pokémon with a playful, mischief-loving side. It's full of curiosity about the lives of people and other Pokémon, usually spending time with [[human]]s while wearing a mask to blend in with them in [[Kitakami]]'s [[Festival of Masks]]. It is known to often cause trouble, such as by stealing snacks from [[Mossui Town]]'s food supply or making off with items that caught its eye.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/ogerpon/ Ogerpon | Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet]</ref> It fights by confusing its opponents with its nimble movements and kicks, and it draws [[type]]-based energy from its masks, imbuing its cudgel with different elements. Ogerpon becomes weaker if its masks are taken away, and its full power can be restored to it by returning its masks. By using them, it is capable of {{Tera}}stallizing without the need of a [[Tera Orb]], supposedly due to the masks being made of [[Tera Shard]]s, just like Tera Orbs. Ogerpon is known to have a very long lifespan; {{ga|Ogerpon|one specimen}} is confirmed to have been alive for hundreds of years. It is mortal enemies with the [[Loyal Three]] and their leader {{p|Pecharunt}}, mainly due to the group's actions towards it in the past. In [[Kitakami]] [[Myths and legends involving Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|myths]], it is described as "the ogre".<br />
<br />
Ogerpon is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the move {{m|Ivy Cudgel}}. It is also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Embody Aspect}} as an [[Ability]] in any of its [[Terastal phenomenon#Unique Terastallized states|Terastallized states]].<br />

===Forms===<br />
Ogerpon has four different forms, corresponding to each of its four masks, which accordingly change the color of its cloak, its vines, and the aura of its cudgel. Additionally, the way that Ogerpon attacks from both close-quarters, as well as at a long-distance range with its vines, differs depending on the forms. Each standard form also has a unique {{Tera|Terastallized state}} that causes a giant protective replica of the mask formed by [[Terastal energy]] to appear around the original, with ogresque crystal horns, floating in front of Ogerpon, and being so immense that it hides all but its legs when viewed from the front. Ogerpon's unique Terastallization comes from the intense emotions it feels, {{a|Embody Aspect|filling its heart and boosting its powers}}. Because its {{Tera|Tera Type}} is wholly determined by the energy in its mask, it cannot be changed at the [[Treasure Eatery]], unlike other Pokémon.<br />

| colspan="4" style="padding:5px 5px 0px" | The [[Teal Mask]] is primarily teal and green in color, and sports a mischievous expression that is sometimes described as fearsome.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_pokemon/ Introducing the Legendary Pokémon You’ll Meet in This DLC | Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet]</ref> The grinning mouth is tan, with two extensions beneath it that resemble pincers. On each side of the mouth is a group of three green leaves, each one larger than the leaf beneath. The top of the mask features five teal leaves that form a crown of sorts, with the four outer leaves each having a hole cut towards the center. The mask contains nine Tera Shards: two that resemble squinting eyes, six as the "veins" of the green leaves, and one large, four-pointed star-shaped crystal set in the central teal leaf as the crown jewel.<br />
<br />
When Ogerpon Terastallizes, a giant replica of the mask is formed by Terastal energy around the original and floats in front of it. The Terastal symbol appears in the crown jewel, two branching crystal horns protrude from its forehead, and the mouth opens up wider in a terrifying grin. Numerous green leaves and vines grow out from behind the sides of the giant mask.<br />
<br />
The Teal Mask draws upon the power of grass; while wearing it, Ogerpon's Tera Type is always {{t|Grass}}. It is said to have the power to restore life to withered plants. Teal Mask Ogerpon will toy with its opponents with swift movements and kicking attacks.<br />

| colspan="4" style="padding:5px 5px 0px" | The [[Wellspring Mask]] is predominantly blue and white in color, and sports a somber expression. The entire mask is framed by blue hair that forms a heart shape, with a streak of lighter blue hair on each side. The face is white with circular, light blue eyebrows, simple black lines for a closed mouth and eyes. The mask contains two Tera Shards that resemble large tears beneath the eyes.<br />
<br />
When Ogerpon Terastallizes, a giant replica of the mask is formed by Terastal energy around the original and floats in front of it. The mask's hair flares out to the sides, the Terastal symbol appears in its left tear, and two flat crystal horns protrude from its forehead. Water waves also flow out from behind the sides of the giant mask.<br />
<br />
The Wellspring Mask draws upon the power of water; while wearing it, Ogerpon's Tera Type is always {{t|Water}}. With this mask, Ogerpon excels in both offense and defense, its unrelenting kicks and ivy strikes resembling the ceaseless gushes of spring water. It is said to be able to stop the flow of a river.<br />

|-<br />
| colspan="4" style="padding:5px 5px 0px" | The [[Hearthflame Mask]] is mainly red and orange in color, and sports an angry expression. Its whole shape and profile is flame-like, with a protruding brow of swirling flames and a bright orange mane bordering most of the mask. Its possesses black pupils within its eyes and a small amount of black coloration between the eyes and nose. Its mouth and nose are bright blue, and it has two sharply pointed fangs jutting from its lower jaw. The mask contains three Tera Shards: two shaped like eyes around its pupils and a four-pointed star on its forehead.<br />
<br />
When Ogerpon Terastallizes, a giant replica of the mask is formed by Terastal energy around the original and floats in front of it. The Terastal symbol appears in the crystal on its forehead, its eyes are surrounded by more black coloration, two sharp crystal horns protrude from its forehead, and its mouth opens up wide as if bellowing in rage. Bright-orange flames also erupt from behind the sides of the giant mask.<br />
<br />
The Hearthflame Mask draws upon the power of fire; while wearing it, Ogerpon's Tera Type is always {{t|Fire}}. True to the mask's expression, Ogerpon becomes more aggressive while wearing it, mercilessly spearing its enemies with thorny ivy and bombarding them with the intensity of a hearth's fire. It is said to be capable of rousing a candle's flame into a raging inferno.<br />

|-<br />
| colspan="4" style="padding:5px 5px 0px" | The [[Cornerstone Mask]] is mostly gray in color, and sports a joyful expression. It has a craggy profile, with uneven extensions towards the top of the mask. Its mouth prominently juts out, and has two large, black, blunt-tipped fangs that curve upward. Its eyes are yellow, it has a small, flat nose just over its mouth, and it has a bright-blue feature that begins behind its nose and curves upward beneath its eyes, forming a strange sort of moustache. The mask contains five Tera Shards: two serving as pupils in its eyes and three as teeth between its black fangs.<br />
<br />
When Ogerpon Terastallizes, a giant replica of the mask is formed by Terastal energy around the original and floats in front of Ogerpon. The Terastal symbol appears in its right pupil, two craggy crystal horns protrude from its forehead, and its mouth opens up even more. Strands of diamond-shaped black hair also extend from the sides of the giant mask.<br />
<br />
The Cornerstone Mask draws upon the power of stone; while wearing it, Ogerpon's Tera Type is always {{t|Rock}}. Ogerpon's defense brims with the solidarity of the cornerstones that support houses; its body becomes rock-solid and easily absorbs impacts, protecting it from all manner of attacks. It is said to be able to break even the hardest stone in two.<br />

===Form data===<br />
Ogerpon has four forms, corresponding to each of its four masks: the Teal Mask, Wellspring Mask, Hearthflame Mask, and Cornerstone Mask.<br />
<br />
When {{Tera}}stallized, each form changes into a unique Terastallized state that causes the mask to transform, gain ogresque crystal horns, float in front of Ogerpon, and grow in size.<br />
<br />
(Refer to the [[#Forms|Forms]] section for images of Ogerpon's unique Terastallized states.)<br />
<br />
When not holding an item, Ogerpon is always in its standard [[Teal Mask]] form. Ogerpon can change into the [[Wellspring Mask]], [[Hearthflame Mask]], and [[Cornerstone Mask]] forms when holding the respective masks of the same names. Each of Ogerpon's other three mask forms has a different secondary [[type]]; Ogerpon's [[signature move]] {{m|Ivy Cudgel}} changes type to match this secondary type.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* The types of all three non-default masked forms of Ogerpon were [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique type combinations]] prior to their introduction:<br />
** [[Wellspring Mask]] Ogerpon's dual-type {{2t|Grass|Water}} was previously unique to {{p|Lotad}}'s evolutionary line.<br />
** [[Hearthflame Mask]] Ogerpon's dual-type Grass/{{t|Fire}} was previously unique to {{p|Scovillain}}.<br />
** [[Cornerstone Mask]] Ogerpon's dual-type Grass/{{t|Rock}} was previously unique to {{p|Lileep}}'s evolutionary line.<br />
* Ogerpon cannot have its {{Tera|Tera Type}} be changed under normal circumstances in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. Even if [[Cheating|the game is modified]] to force Ogerpon to have a different Tera Type, the game will {{DL|Game freeze|Softlocking|softlock}} upon trying to Terastallize, forcing the player to restart the console. It shares this distinction with {{p|Terapagos}}.<br />
** This makes Ogerpon the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} available in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} incapable of being {{type|Stellar}}.<br />
** {{a|Illusion}}, {{a|Imposter}}, and {{m|Transform}} will also not work if either Ogerpon or the Pokémon with them Terastallizes.<br />
* Ogerpon in its Wellspring Mask form is the first Water-type Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by gender ratio|100% female ratio]]. The same is true for its Cornerstone Mask form and the Rock type.<br />
* Ogerpon is tied with {{p|Urshifu}} for the lowest non-increasable base stat total of all fully evolved [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary Pokemon]] at only 550. {{p|Zygarde}} and {{p|Terapagos}} have [[Form|alternate forms]] with lower base stat totals, but these can be increased by switching to their other forms.<br />
* Ogerpon is the first Pokémon that has never been a {{type|Normal}} to learn {{m|Follow Me}} by level-up, as the {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Togepi}} families were pure Normal prior to [[Generation VI]].<br />
* If Ogerpon is sent out during the {{pkmn|battle}} against {{p|Pecharunt}} at the end of the [[Mochi Mayhem]] epilogue, Ogerpon will recognize it and react with distress and anger, yelling out "GRAH! Pon PON!!!" at it.<br />
<br />
===Concept and development===<br />
Ogerpon and all of its forms were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref name=Designer>[https://archive.is/Bj5mI Ariga confirming he designed Ogerpon, including all of its forms.]</ref><br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Ogerpon is based on 鬼 ''{{wp|oni}}'', creatures from Japanese folklore that are often referred to as demons or ogres in English. In particular, it may be based on the villainous oni who live in Onigashima from the story of ''{{wp|Momotarō}}'', albeit with Ogerpon as the hero instead of the villain. Given that the land of Kitakami is inspired by {{wp|Tōhoku region|Northeast Japan}}, it may also be based on Akuro-ō, the Oni in the local {{jwp|坂上田村麻呂伝説|legend}}s of {{wp|Sakanoue no Tamuramaro}}. Its cudgel appears to be based on a {{wp|kanabō}}, a type of club often wielded by oni in myths.<br />
<br />
The overall design of Ogerpon may draw inspiration from local festivals and folktales about ''oni'' in Northeast Japan. It may also be inspired by Onikenbai, or {{wp|Devil's Sword Dance}}, a traditional Buddhist ritual dance and {{wp|Kitakami Michinoku Traditional Dance Festival|festival}} from the real-life city named {{wp|Kitakami, Iwate|Kitakami}} in {{wp|Iwate Prefecture}}. Another inspiration may be {{wp|Namahage}} from {{wp|Akita Prefecture}}, where performers in ''oni'' masks and ''{{wp|Mino (straw cape)|mino}}'' received {{wp|mochi}} from households in the 20th century but nowadays give away mochi. This also ties to the [[Ogre Oustin']] minigame and the [[mochi]] which can be earned there. The Terastallized states of Ogerpon may be inspired by ''Nebuta'' floats of the {{wp|Aomori Nebuta Matsuri|Aomori Nebuta Festival}} from {{wp|Aomori Prefecture}}, which feature large {{wp|papier-mâché}} half statues of mythical or historical figures with exaggerated facial expressions.<br />
<br />
Ogerpon's masks may have local inspiration from the Tōhoku region. The leaves on the Teal Mask may be inspired by the 丸に笹竜胆 ''maru-ni sasarindō'' {{wp|Mon (emblem)|mon}} on the attire of Kitakami Onikenbai. The [[Wellspring Mask]] may draw inspiration from the folktale of {{wp|Lake Tazawa}} and Tatsuko, where a maiden longing for eternal beauty is turned into a dragon and dives into the lake with much regret after parting with her mother and fellow villager. In the plot of [[The Teal Mask]], the item was brought by {{p|Munkidori}} to [[Six Wonders of Kitakami|Wisteria Pond]], the [[PKWorld#Kitakami|Pokémon world's equivalent]] of Lake Tazawa. The association of ''oni'' and the [[Hearthflame Mask|hearth]] may be inspired by a local legend of {{wp|Watanabe no Tsuna}} in {{wp|Shibata District, Miyagi|Ubagafutokoro}}, {{wp|Miyagi Prefecture}}, where {{wp|Ibaraki-dōji|the demon of Ichijō Modorihashi}} retrieved its severed limb from the residence of the hero and escaped along the pothook (''jizaikagi'') of the {{wp|irori}}. The [[Cornerstone Mask]] could be based on {{wp|Onigawara}}, roof ornamentations with the face of an ''oni''. Early examples of Onigawara with ''oni'' faces have been excavated from the {{wp|Isawa Castle|Isawa Castle site}} in Iwate.<br />
<br />
The masks also appear to be based on those used in the {{wp|Nōgaku}} theatre, including {{wp|Noh}} and {{wp|Kyōgen}}, with strong ties to Buddhist and Shinto rituals. Together they may represent joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness (fulfilment) - the four moods of East Asian theatre from the {{wp|Confucianism|Confucian}} {{wp|Book of Rites}}; known as 喜怒哀楽 ''kidoairaku'' in Japanese.<br />
*Specifically, the [[Teal Mask]] resembles the 翁面 ''okina-men'', a genre of masks that represents old men with a smiling or grinning face commonly used in {{jwp|式三番|Shiki-sanba}} performances at temples and shrines.<br />
*The [[Wellspring Mask]] resembles the 女面 ''onna-men'', masks of female characters that usually depict a sorrowful or weeping face; and in its Terastallized state, the 生成 ''namanari'' mask, ''oni'' masks with short horns and a painful face, but less fierce than the more iconic ''{{wp|hannya}}'' mask. Ogerpon's Terastallization in this state may be inspired by the transformation of sorrowful, vengful, or envious women into {{wp|onryō}}, a common trope of the Noh theatre.<br />
*The [[Hearthflame Mask]] resembles several genres of furious 鬼面 ''oni-men'', such as the 顰 ''shikami'' ("lion's frowning gaze") or the 獅子口 ''shishi-guchi'' ("lion's maw"). This is further evidenced by the mane-like flames around the mask in its Terastallized state.<br />
*The [[Cornerstone Mask]] resembles the now-rare 仏面 ''butsu-men'' genre of Noh masks, including 天神 ''{{wp|Kami|Tenshin}}'' and 不動 ''{{wp|Acala|Fudō}}'', used to depict resolute and powerful deities who facilitate unworldly achievements or bring forth {{wp|Vipāka}}.<br />
The fact that it has four masks could be inspired by the {{jwp|藤原千方の四鬼|four Oni summoned by Fujiwara no Chikata}}, a feudal lord who plotted high treason with the help of demons in a legend passed down in {{wp|Mie Prefecture}} and {{wp|Iwate Prefecture}}.<br />
<br />
Ogerpon's plant-based body and orange fruit-like face may be based on a {{wp|citrus}} shrub, like its name suggests. Its face specifically resembles ''{{wp|dekopon}}'', a hybrid between ''{{wp|ponkan}}'' and ''{{wp|kiyomi}}''. It also appears to be based on {{wp|Hedera|ivy}}, although its thorny appearance is more similar to plants like {{wp|Rubus|bramble bush}}es. Its thorns may be also a visual pun on {{wp|Ibaraki-dōji}}, a mountain-dwelling oni whose name includes 茨 ''ibara'' (briar, thorn) and who is synonymous to the aforementioned demon of Ichijō Modorihashi. Its green face in its shiny coloration makes it resemble that of an unripe {{wp|orange (fruit)|orange}} or dekopon, which are typically a shade of green rather than the usual orange color. It may also draw inspiration from the ''{{wp|yuzu}}'', which has a larger variant called ''oni yuzu''. Its vines and the {{m|Ivy Cudgel}} could also be based on {{wp|Vitis|grapevines}}; the Japanese name of the move includes the name of a few kinds of grapevine. The inspiration from citrus fruits and grapes may be a reference to [[Naranja Academy|Naranja]] and [[Uva Academy]].<br />
<br />
Ogerpon also seems to draw inspiration from ヤマンバ ''yamanba'' or マンバ ''manba'', styles that originated from ''{{wp|ganguro}}'', a fashion style that derivates from {{wp|''gyaru''}} subculture. The makeup worn in these fashion styles resembles Ogerpon's orange face. Sparkly eyes are also commonly associated with the gyaru subculture, just like the use of the suffix ''-pon'', presented in Ogerpon's name and cries during [[The Teal Mask]] dialogues. 山姥 ''{{wp|Yamanba}}'' (mountain hag) is also a ''{{wp|yōkai}}'' that, just like Ogerpon, dwells in a mountain.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Ogerpon may be derived from ''{{wp|ogre}}'' and ''{{wp|ponkan}}'' or ''{{wp|dekopon}}'' (varieties of orange), as well as {{j|～ぽん}} ''-pon'', a cutesy suffix applied to names as a form of endearment.<br />

== Alakazam's lvl33 move (FireRed) ==<br />
<br />
When Alakazam reaches lvl 33, the move that is learned is “Calm Mind” not “Role Play” <B><br />
Here's a video I got http://www.4shared.com/file/56702273/180a520b/Movie.html </B><br />
<br />
== 2nd Most Intelligent? ==<br />
<br />
In the Behavior section, it says Alakazam is the second most intelligent pokémon. Who's smarter than it? Me and my fellow torchics agree on this - [[User:Sk8torchic|Sk8torchic]]. 17:17, 3 May 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Uxie is theoretically omniscient; if true nothing in existence could be "smarter." In practice (Mystery Dungeon 2) he's considerably less effective than that, but so are most legendaries/pokemon in general. --[[User:Barakku|Barakku]] 02:33, 6 May 2009 (UTC)<br />
::This is wrong, Alakazam is the most intelligent Pokémon, and Uxie is the '''smartest''' one, not the most intelligent one. Intelligence is not the same thing as knowledge. Someone should change this. [[User:Mutak|Mutak]] 06:57, 13 September 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Houdini ==<br />
<br />
He was not a stage magician, he was an escape artist.--[[user:Mtn otter|Mtn otter]] We are the Void 00:19, 4 October 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Mosst people are still going to call that stage magic. It's still an illusion that's already set up. Here we also have {{wp|Magic (illusion)|Wikipedia's definition}}: "Magic is a performing art that entertains an audience by creating illusions of seemingly impossible or supernatural feats, using purely natural means. These feats are called magic tricks, effects or illusions.....One who performs such illusions is called a magician or an illusionist. Some performers may also be referred to by names reflecting the type of magical effects they present, such as prestidigitators, conjurors, mentalists, '''escape artists''', and ventriloquists."—[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 01:54, 4 October 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Are we sure that Alakazam wasn't named after Houdin, the so-called father of Stage Magic, rather than Houdini? [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] ([[User talk:Kumori Satosuke|talk]]) 06:14, 22 December 2025 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Fix it up... ==<br />
<br />
A lot of the things in the behavior section should really be listed under special abilities. I'm gonna fix that up and do some research to improve the Behavior section.--[[User:TheLastCharmander|TheLastCharmander]] 20:57, 11 February 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Back sprites ==<br />
<br />
The article mentions that Alakazam is the only poke to have two different Gen-III back sprites... so how come there's only one shown in the sprite box? It seems like teasing to bring this up and not even say where the two different sprites are found. ~ [[User:CZeke|CZeke]] 05:48, 14 October 2010 (UTC)<br />
:Because the sprite box is in need of a redesign. And it certainly isn't the only one. Many Gen I Pokémon (in particular. A few other did as well) had redesigned backsprites for FRLG. Same for Gen II Pokémon (again, among others) with HGSS. The current sprite box isn't set up for multiple backsprites. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 07:44, 14 October 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Fighting Moves ==<br />
<br />
"Although Alakazam is quite fragile and prefers to use its psychic abilities for movement and battle, it is quite capable of learning a broad range of fighting moves."<br />
<br />
Why does it say this if the only Fighting-type move it can learn is Focus Blast? [[User:King Riolu|King Riolu]] 11:40, 27 April 2011 (UTC)<br />
:I think it means physical moves such as Giga Impact and Psycho Cut. Not Fighting type moves.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#444444">'''F'''</span>]][[Reshiram (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#858585">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#C3C3C3">'''F'''</span>]][[Zekrom (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#D8D8D8">ire</span>]] 12:35, 27 April 2011 (UTC)<br />
Well, should it be changed so that is says "physical moves" then? [[User:King Riolu|King Riolu]] 19:02, 27 April 2011 (UTC)<br />

== May i use this? ==<br />
<br />
I was thinking of picking up a few sprites for my signature. Is this allowed? How do i do it?[[User:Bobosmith01|~Bobo Spr_2c_147_s.gif]] 13:01, 30 April 2011 (UTC)<br />
:Sorry, we're not allowed to have pictures in our signatures. You can use them in your userspace, however!

<br />
==Trivia;counterpart.==<br />
<br />
I just read through the trivia of Alakazam, and I wrote that it could be seen as a counterpart of Machamp, but isn't it more like a counterpart of Gengar? They are both the end of a 3-staged evolution, which can only be achieved by trading, both have mega evolution, Gengar is weak against Psychic moves and Alakazam is weak against Ghost moves, so they are weak and at the same time strong against each other. They have the same length, and both get smaller when they mega evolve. Their base friendship is also the same, with 70. In the animé episode: ''The ancient puzzle of Pokémopolis'' there are a Gengar and a Alakazam put against each other. Since Generation VI, they both have a Base stat total of 500. Both are weak to Dark type Pokémon. <br />
[[User:Danny199]]<br />
<br />
== Alakazam's taboo origin ==<br />
<br />
So, I won't even try to add this since it will probably be removed.<br />
Yes, they reference famous magicians and spoon benders. But what are your opinions about considering Alakazam's family as also being based on {{wp|Baphomet}}? <br />
They're all anthropomorphic goat creatures, with occult/supernatural powers, similar body structure, and star on the head (in Kadabra and Alakazam's Red&Green sprite). Should this be added for information's sake or should be avoided to prevent polemics?<br />
<br />
I personally would appreciate having it added, the whole stigma around religion isn't so present when referencing mythology from non-Catholic religions, so I think it would be fair to not discriminate it like that. I, however, feel like this should be decided by the community or by the staff so I'd like to hear your opinion about this.<br />

<br />
== A Ridiculous Origin ==<br />
<br />
I know that this statement is stupid, but it worth asking. Could Alakazam's Japanese name Foodin could also have the word food, referencing its spoons? [[User:MageMagius|MageMagius]] ([[User talk:MageMagius|talk]]) 06:56, 20 July 2021 (UTC)<br />
:It's as you said, it's ridiculous and really related. [[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]] ([[User talk:Animaltamer7|talk]]) 09:17, 20 July 2021 (UTC)<br />
::*unrelated, I meant unrelated. [[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]] ([[User talk:Animaltamer7|talk]]) 13:31, 20 July 2021 (UTC)<br />
::Foodin is a close transliteration of Fūdin as the Japanese alphabet lacks a character for "Fo." They instead have "Fu," which when translated sounds similar to "Foo." It is the closest one can get to translating Houdini's name to Japanese as far as I know.

<div>[[File:Mystri Stage artwork.png|thumb|250px|Various forms of {{p|Unown}}]]<br />
{{TOC right}}<br />
Some {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} have major [[Variant Pokémon|variations]] between individuals, known as '''[[form]]s''' (Japanese: '''すがた''' ''form''). These variations all have differing appearances and are recognized by the [[Pokédex]]. The process of form change allows some Pokémon to change between their different forms, such as {{p|Castform}}, while other Pokémon have forms that are not interchangeable, such as {{p|Unown}}. Additionally, there are unique individuals that have distinct appearances that are not achieved through form change or [[Evolution]], such as {{fd|Ursaluna|Bloodmoon}} {{p|Ursaluna}}. Other form differences include: '''[[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]]''', '''[[regional form]]s''', '''[[Mega Evolution]]s''', and '''[[Gigantamax]]''' forms.<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
Form differences were introduced in [[Generation II]], in which Unown was the only Pokémon to have them. All subsequent [[generation]]s have introduced multiple Pokémon with form differences. Pokémon able to change between their forms were first introduced in [[Generation III]].<br />
<br />
At times, these differences are purely cosmetic and have no bearing on the Pokémon's attributes besides its appearance; however, several Pokémon differ in [[stat]]s, [[type]], [[Ability]], [[move]]s they can learn, etc. depending on their form. Among these are several {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], whose alternate forms are usually named using the French word '''Forme''' (Japanese: '''フォルム''' ''Forme'') instead.<br />
<br />
Starting in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, every official different form has a name given by the [[Pokédex]], though {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Genesect}}, and {{p|Furfrou}}'s alternate forms were not recognized separately in the Pokédex until {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. In [[Generation II|Generations II]], {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|IV}}, whichever form is encountered first will be the sprite displayed in the Pokédex by default; for example, if West Sea {{p|Shellos}} was encountered first, its sprite will appear in the Pokédex by default, whereas if East Sea Shellos was encountered first, its sprite will. In Generation II, the Pokédex has a separate [[Unown Mode]] to show the forms of Unown. In Generation IV, the "forms" section was added to the individual entries of each Pokémon, showing form differences that have been encountered, as well as [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]]. In [[Generation V]], the forms section returns and displays [[Shiny Pokémon]] as separate forms (if they have been encountered); additionally, the sprite displayed in the Pokédex can be changed using the forms section. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the forms section is only available after interacting with [[Cedric Juniper]] in [[Mistralton City]], while in {{B2W2}}, it is available from the start. Starting in [[Generation VI]], the Pokédex does not have a separate forms section; instead, a Pokémon's forms (including Shiny forms and gender differences) that have been encountered can be switched between in the Pokémon's entry, and this changes the image shown in the Pokédex.<br />
<br />
Additionally, there exist form-like transformations and technical forms that are not recognized by the Pokédex, but otherwise appear or behave like unique forms or are treated as such in game code.<br />

Alcremie's form depends on two different parameters: its cream and type of [[Sweet]]. Cream affects the color of Alcremie's body, while the Sweet affects its eye color and head ornaments. There are nine different types of cream and seven different types of Sweet. Any type of cream can be paired with any Sweet, resulting in 63 different non-[[Gigantamax]] forms of Alcremie, not including its {{Shiny}} coloration.<br />

==Pokémon with technical forms==<br />
Some Pokémon have forms which are only distinguished internally within the game's programming. Most of these forms are not visually distinct from one another, but may still have an impact on gameplay.<br />
<br />
==={{p|Pikachu}} and {{anchor|Eevee|{{p|Eevee}}}}===<br />
{{FormGroupHeader|cols=2}}<br />

{{FormGroupFooter}}<br />
<br />
The {{ga|Partner Pokémon|partner}} Pikachu and partner Eevee given to the player in {{LGPE}} are each considered separate forms internally. They use higher quality models, have higher base stats, and are unable to evolve, along with many other minor differences.<br />
<br />
For more details, see '''{{fd|Pikachu|Pikachu → Form data}}''' and '''{{fd|Eevee|Eevee → Form data}}'''.<br />
<br />
==={{p|Mothim}}===<br />

<br />
The 10% and 50% Formes of Zygarde with the [[Ability]] {{a|Aura Break}} are each treated as separate forms from the 10% and 50% Formes of Zygarde with the Ability {{a|Power Construct}}. This explains why the [[Ability Capsule]] can't be used to change Zygarde's Ability, only the [[Zygarde Cube]] can.<br />
<br />

<br />
Vivillon patterns are each treated as separate forms. Because Vivillon's pattern is determined by the location the Scatterbug is generated in, each of Vivillon's 20 patterns has a corresponding form for both Scatterbug and Spewpa.<br />

<br />
==In other games==<br />
===Pokémon Shuffle===<br />
{{main|List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number}}<br />
In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], Pokémon with different forms have different {{OBP|Skill|Shuffle}}s and can have different Attack Powers and max levels.<br />
<br />
Most Pokémon with forms in the core series games also have those forms in Pokémon Shuffle. Many Pokémon have a "Winking" form, notably including most of the [[first partner Pokémon]]. There are also a few Pokémon with a "Spooky" or "Holiday" form. Pikachu has a large variety of forms, mostly unique to Pokémon Shuffle.<br />
<br />
===Pokémon GO===<br />
{{main|List of Pokémon with form differences (GO)}}<br />
The majority of Pokémon in [[Pokémon GO]] have their forms determined at the time of capture and impossible to change, with the exceptions of {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Furfrou}}, and {{p|Hoopa}}. Although every species has one [[Pokédex]] entry each, a Pokémon is considered different from any of its alternate forms; this means that even if a player has one form of the Pokémon species registered in the Pokédex, an alternate form will still appear as a silhouette in the Nearby screen, and receiving one in a [[trade]] will be considered a Special Trade.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* As of [[Generation IX]], four Pokémon have form differences that remain unobtainable. These are:<br />
** {{type|???}} {{p|Arceus}}, which only existed in the code for the [[Generation IV]] games and is unavailable without hacking.<br />
** Eternal Flower {{p|Floette}}, which only exists in the code for the [[Generation VI]] and [[Generation VII]] games, and remains in the data of [[Pokémon HOME]].<br />
** Eternamax {{p|Eternatus}}, which is only seen in the climax of {{g|Sword and Shield}} and when Eternatus uses {{m|Eternabeam}}.<br />
** {{p|Revavroom}}'s Starmobile forms, which are only seen being used by the bosses of [[Team Star]].<br />
* Some of the Pokémon with form differences have unique distinctions:<br />
** {{p|Darmanitan}} and {{p|Tauros}} are the only Pokémon whose [[regional form]]s have further form differences.<br />
** {{p|Hoopa}} is the only Mythical Pokémon whose form change outright increases base stats, rather than re-distributing them.<br />
** {{p|Urshifu}} is the only Pokémon whose [[Gigantamax]] form has form differences.<br />
*** Although {{p|Toxtricity}} and {{p|Alcremie}} have multiple alternate forms, they each have only one Gigantamax form.<br />
** {{p|Koraidon}} and {{p|Miraidon}} have the highest number of forms that are obtainable in some capacity yet unusable in battle, as they each use three forms solely for travel and are obtained in their fourth 'low-power' forms, yet can only battle in their ‘high-power’ forms.<br />
*** {{p|Rotom}} has five forms that are unusable in battle (Pokédex, Phone, Bike, Rotomi, Drone), but Rotomi and Rotom Drone are completely unobtainable.<br />

'''Route 41''' (Japanese: '''４１ばんすいどう''' ''Water Route 41'') is a [[water route]] in western [[Johto]] connecting {{rt|40|Johto}} and [[Cianwood City]]. The [[Whirl Islands]] lie in the center of the route.<br />
<br />
==Route description==<br />
Route 41 consists of the [[Whirl Islands]] and their surrounding area. The entrances to the four islands are inaccessible due to {{OBP|whirlpool|obstacle}}s until the Trainer has the [[HM]] {{m|Whirlpool}} to traverse them. Three of the four islands yield valuable Pokémon and items, but if the {{player}} has the [[Silver Wing]] in their [[Bag]], {{p|Lugia}} can be found through the northeast portal. This route is also home to {{p|Mantine}}, which is only found in this area in Pokémon Gold, Crystal and HeartGold.<br />
<br />
A Trainer may {{m|Surf}} around the Islands in any way they please; however, directly south of the southernmost of the Whirl Islands, the route turns due west towards [[Cianwood City]].<br />

<hr />
<div>==Terminology==<br />
If Poltchageist is the only one that has been officially called "ecologically similar" and is also the only one that actually ''is'' ecologically similar (ghosts that possess tea, live in houses, and eat people's life force), then it doesn't seem to me like the term can be extrapolated to Wiglett and Toedscool, and with no official term referring to the category in general, it would make more sense to use "convergent". [[User:Pikcahu|Pikcahu]] ([[User talk:Pikcahu|talk]]) 15:02, 17 September 2023 (UTC)<br />
:"Convergent" is a misnomer (they aren't filling the same niches) so whatever the case, "convergent" is unlikely to be used, especially because Poltchageist is not a product of evolution.--[[User:MissDelibirda|MissDelibirda]] ([[User talk:MissDelibirda|talk]]) 15:06, 17 September 2023 (UTC)<br />
::Filling the same niche is not a requirement and "convergent" describes better the relation between these Pokemon.--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#CC0000">Rocket</span>]] [[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#666666">Grunt</span>]]''' 15:21, 17 September 2023 (UTC)<br />
:::So we should change rather instead to "Physiologically similar Pokémon" or "Phenotypically similar Pokémon". As it stands this article's name is misleading at best.[[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] ([[User talk:Kumori Satosuke|talk]]) 21:17, 19 April 2024 (UTC)</div>Kumori Satosukehttps://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Koraidon_(game)&diff=3992220Koraidon (game)2024-04-19T19:20:00Z<p>Kumori Satosuke: /* Appearance */ Fixed two apparent copypaste errors of calling Koraidon "Miraidon"</p>

'''Koraidon''' (Japanese: '''コライドン''' ''Koraidon'') is a {{pkmn2|Legendary}} [[Paradox Pokémon|Paradox]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and a major character in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet]].<br />
<br />
==In the core series games==<br />
{{spoilers}}<br />
<br />
=== Character profile ===<br />
{{Main|Koraidon (Pokémon)}}<br />
Koraidon has a meek and gentle personality. Though initially wary, it bonds with the player and accompanies them during their journey throughout the Paldea [[region]]. Koraidon shows compassion towards [[Arven]]'s {{p|Mabosstiff}} and curiosity towards [[Penny]], despite the former's initial distaste of it and the latter's shyness. Throughout the journey, it slowly regains its strength, allowing Koraidon to utilize additional forms to help the player navigate Paldea's terrain. Koraidon is initially hesitant to enter Area Zero due to its previous encounter with the other Koraidon, but with the support of the player and friends, Koraidon finds the courage to face its old nemesis and finally defeat it.<br />
<br />
It is shown to have a voracious appetite. During the Path of Legends quest, Koraidon develops a taste for Herba Mystica [[sandwich]]es, much to Arven's initial perplexity. After completing the story of The Indigo Disk, Amarys gives the player an ample supply of Flying Build supplements, but Koraidon immediately and eagerly gobbles them all in one go.<br />
<br />
=== Background ===<br />
Around 10 years ago, Koraidon was brought from either an ancient past or another timeline to [[Area Zero]] by [[Professor Sada]]'s [[time machine]]. She eventually brought the Pokémon to her home, where her son [[Arven]] lived with his {{p|Maschiff}}. Koraidon lived with the family in secret for some time until, one day, it attacked several wild Pokémon and attracted unwanted attention, forcing Sada to take it back to Area Zero.<br />
<br />
At some point, a second Koraidon was brought through the time machine, but this one proved far more belligerent and aggressive than the first. One day, the aggressive Koraidon forced a violent territorial dispute which ended with Research Station No. 4 being destroyed and Sada being gravely injured trying to protect the passive Koraidon. Wounded and traumatized, the timid Koraidon flew away from Area Zero.<br />
<br />
=== Pokémon Scarlet ===<br />
It flies out of the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] before it loses consciousness and crash lands on a beach below [[Poco Path]]. The [[Player character|player]] happens to fall to the beach where Koraidon is resting in its Limited Build and offers it their [[Sandwich (item)|sandwich]], which revitalizes it enough to assume its Apex Build. As Koraidon leads the player through [[Inlet Grotto]], a group of {{p|Houndour}} led by a {{p|Houndoom}} start to harass Koraidon. Though it tries to scare them off by roaring, this only causes the Houndour to attack the player instead, forcing Koraidon to grab them and escape. However, this uses up its remaining strength, reverting it to its Limited Build again. The player meets Arven at Poco Path, who regards Koraidon with contempt and gives the player [[Koraidon's Poké Ball]] after losing to them in a battle, all too glad to have Koraidon off his hands.<br />
<br />
==== Path of Legends ====<br />
After the player attends [[Naranja Academy]] and begins the Treasure Hunt, Koraidon regains enough strength to access its Sprinting Build, allowing the player to ride it across the [[Paldea]] region. One of the player's long-term objectives is to find and defeat the five [[Titan Pokémon]], helping Arven find the source of their strength: the [[Herba Mystica]]. Arven creates recipes with the Herba Mystica to help his wounded {{p|Mabosstiff}} recover from its injuries. Koraidon, having acquired a taste for sandwiches, eagerly prompts the player to share their Herba Mystica sandwiches with it, despite Arven's objections. Eating the sandwiches causes Koraidon to regain its strength and unlock more abilities to traverse Paldea with.<br />
<br />
==== ★ Starfall Street ★ ====<br />
Everytime the player defeats one of the bosses of [[Team Star]] and leaves their bases, [[Penny]] appears outside to congratulate and pay the player for their work, Koraidon however, comes out of its Poké Ball and starts to playfully lick Penny all over, showing great affection to her even against her will.<br />
<br />
==== The Way Home ====<br />
After the player completes all three story paths, they, [[Nemona]], Arven, and Penny prepare to enter Area Zero, but Koraidon fearfully hesitates due to its trauma. The player and company force it to carry them down into the crater anyway, but while it manages to get them all down there (despite a rough landing), Koraidon returns to its Poké Ball and refuses to come out. It is finally called back out in front of the [[Zero Lab]] before the door is opened, but as this happens, Koraidon encounters its old nemesis, the aggressive Koraidon, who immediately threatens it before entering the now-opened Zero Lab. This leaves it too scared to help the player and friends fend off the other hostile [[Paradox Pokémon]] from the Zero Lab, but Arven, who is piecing together the truth of his and Koraidon's past, encourages it to face its enemy inside the lab while he holds back the Paradox Pokémon outside.<br />
<br />
The player and Koraidon meet the late Professor Sada's AI counterpart inside the lab, and when the other Koraidon approaches them, she returns it to its [[Master Ball]]. The player heeds AI Sada's request to shut down the professor's [[time machine]] before it releases enough ancient Pokémon to destroy Paldea's ecosystem, but the time machine resists by overriding the AI and making it battle the player. After the AI's team is defeated, the Paradise Protection Protocol initializes in response, locking all Poké Balls not registered to Professor Sada's ID and forcing the AI to send out the aggressive Koraidon. The player's only option is to send out Koraidon, since its Poké Ball is still registered to Sada's ID. Having recovered its strength, and with moral support from the player and friends, Koraidon assumes its Apex Build and faces its nemesis, finally defeating it thanks to [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallization]] and its friends's support. From this moment on, the player can freely switch Koraidon between serving as their Ride Pokémon in its Sprinting Build (and other associated Builds) or a member of their party in its Apex Build.<br />
<br />
==== The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask ====<br />
During the player's schooltrip to [[Kitakami]], Koraidon comes out of its Poké Ball again as it hears the word sandwich, surprising [[Kieran]] that the player possesses such an amazing and rare Pokémon.<br />
<br />
==== The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk ====<br />
Later on, the player enters [[Blueberry Academy]]'s BB League. One of the BB League's [[Elite Four]], [[Amarys]], requires the player to pass her Flying Time Trial, in which challengers must clear the course on flight-capable Ride Pokémon within a certain amount of time. To enable this, Amarys gives the player a supplement made from herbs growing in the [[Terarium]] that temporarily enables Koraidon to enter its Flying Build, allowing it to freely fly through the air. Later on, after the player, Kieran, [[Carmine]] and [[Briar]] travel all the way into [[Area Zero Underdepths]], Kieran, determined to defeat the player using [[Terapagos (Pokémon)|Terapagos]], Terastallizes it and causes it to lose control and almost kill him with a Terastal energy blast, being saved just in time by Koraidon who was sent out to protect him by the player. <br />
<br />
After the story is completed, Amarys offers more supplements so the player and Koraidon can fly whenever they need to, but to her surprise, Koraidon devours all of the supplements right away, causing it to power up and gain permanent access to its Flying Build. Later on, when the player travels to Kitakami's [[Crystal Pool]] having with them, both Terapagos and [[Briar's Book]], Terapagos will use its powers and the stones in the Crystal Pool to temporarily bring a Professor Sada from a parallel timeline, there. In excitement, Koraidon comes out of its Poké Ball once again to excitedly greet their former owner, who it clearly cares and misses deeply, becoming saddened as Sada returns to her own timeline now with Briar's Book<br />
<br />
====Appearance====<br />

In Pokémon Scarlet, Koraidon can assume a series of Builds which can be used for travel. By pressing +, the player can enter and use Koraidon's Sprinting Build. In this Build, the player can ride on Koraidon, replacing the [[bike]] and [[Ride Pokémon]] from previous games.<br />
<br />
At first, Koraidon can only be ridden in its Sprinting Build. It can jump by pressing B, and swim in bodies of water inside settlements. Koraidon will be given an upgrade after each [[Titan Pokémon]] the player defeats:<br />
<br />
* Defeating the Stony Cliff Titan grants Koraidon the ability to dash, giving it a higher-speed option when pressing the left stick. It may be possible to activate dash from jumping or sliding down steep hills.<br />
* Defeating the Open Sky Titan grants Koraidon the full ability to use its Swimming Build, allowing it to swim outside of cities and towns, replacing the {{m|Surf}} [[HM]] from earlier games.<br />
* Defeating the Lurking Steel Titan grants Koraidon the ability to jump higher by holding the B button.<br />
* Defeating the Quaking Earth Titan grants Koraidon the full ability to use its Gliding Build. Working similarly to [[Ride Pokémon (Hisui)|Braviary]], pressing B while in the air gives Koraidon the ability to fall slower and travel in the air for a short time before dropping. <br />
* Defeating the False Dragon Titan grants Koraidon the ability to climb. Similar to [[Ride Pokémon (Hisui)|Sneasler]], by jumping and touching a wall, Koraidon can attach itself to said wall if the player presses B, allowing it to climb the wall in all directions. Pressing the B button again allows Koraidon to detach itself from the wall.<br />
* When confronting its fellow Koraidon at the end of the game, Koraidon regains access to the Apex Build it used at the beginning of the game, allowing the player to subsequently use it in proper battle.<br />
* After completing [[The Indigo Disk]]'s main story, the player can talk to [[Amarys]] in Classroom 3-2 of [[Blueberry Academy]]. Doing so grants Koraidon access to its Flying Build. Working somewhat similarly to [[Soaring in the sky|Soar]], pushing down the Left Stick while in Gliding Build allows Koraidon to fly freely around the map.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Koraidon and {{ga|Miraidon}} are the only [[Legendary Pokémon]] available to the player at the start of the game, although they can't be used in battle until the end of the main story.<br />
* Despite it originally being registered to Sada's ID, by the time the player can use it in battle, it is registered to the player's ID. The same is also true with Miraidon and [[Professor Turo]]. However, this is not the case in the battle against the Paradise Protection Protocol, as Koraidon's met data is incomplete at that time.<br />

<div>==Points accumulation ==<br />
I've been playing with my friend and the one point per turn doesn't seem accurate. We sometimes end up with different numbers of points even if neither of us have used an item! Anyone have any ideas on how it actually works? [[User:Zappyton|Zappyton]] 23:03, 25 May 2011 (UTC)<br />
:If I recall correctly, it ''might'' have something to do with how well you performed during that turn (such as use of super effective attacks or something). I'm not very sure though. [[User:Blueapple128|Blueapple128]] 19:30, 29 May 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Wrong sprites ==<br />
<br />
It should use the Wonder Launcher sprites of all items. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 08:51, 14 June 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== How does each ability react to ability urge? ==<br />
<br />
E.g. How would, say, Static choose a target in a double battle? And how does, say Huge Power work at all? Could we get a section containing abilities that work with the Wonder Launcher's Ability Urge item and what changes, if any, each has? --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] 23:45, 8 May 2012 (UTC)<br />
:I think that would be a great idea. If anyone would be willing to research this, it would be great. Same goes for Item Urge. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:57, 10 May 2012 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Where and How to Participate? ==<br />
Article should cite where you can participate in this type of battle. It's unclear, and I can't recall how you trigger the Wonder Launcher battles. And I PLAYED all 4 of these games. Unfamiliar readers would be confused without this information.

===Compatible Pokémon formerly not in any Sword and Shield Pokédex===<br />
These Pokémon were compatible with {{g|Sword and Shield}} in an earlier version than the one which added them to one of the Sword and Shield Pokédexes.<br />
<br />
Galarian Slowpoke was added to {{g|Sword and Shield}} in Version 1.1.0. All other Pokémon on this list were compatible with Sword and Shield in Version 1.0.0, but were not made available until {{g|HOME}}'s release. All of the Pokémon on this list had Sword and Shield Pokédex entries viewable in HOME prior to them being viewable in Sword and Shield.<br />

<br />
'''Legendary Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|伝説|でんせつ}}のポケモン''' ''Legendary Pokémon'') are a group of incredibly rare and often very powerful {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, generally featured prominently in the legends and myths of the [[Pokémon world]] with some even going so far as to view them as deities.<br />
<br />
[[Special Pokémon]] is a subcategory of the Legendary Pokémon that are restricted or banned from certain official tournaments, battle facilities, and link battle formats. Most Special Pokémon are Legendary [[game mascot]]s.<br />
<br />
No explicit criteria defines what makes a Pokémon a Legendary Pokémon. Instead, the only way to identify a Pokémon as belonging to this group is through statements from official media, such as the {{pkmn|games}} or {{pkmn|anime}}.<br />
<br />
==Terminology==<br />
{{main|Terminology of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon}}<br />
<br />
[[Mythical Pokémon]] are a related but separate group of Pokémon, which are usually {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive. In Western language media, Mythical Pokémon were considered to be Legendary Pokémon prior to [[Generation V]]; in Japanese and Korean media, the two groups have always been considered distinct.<br />
<br />
In some cases, the term "Legendary Pokémon" was still used referring to Mythical Pokémon even after the Generation V games. For instance, in a painting of {{p|Arceus}} in the [[Lilycove Museum]] from [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], as well as {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Shaymin}}'s trophies in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]].<br />

Legendary Pokémon are usually encountered as interactable or [[roaming Pokémon]]. Starting in {{v2|Platinum}}, Legendary Pokémon will reappear when the player defeats the {{pkmn|Champion}} if the Pokémon fainted earlier.<br />
<br />
The [[gender]] of most Legendary Pokémon is unknown (though there are 15 notable exceptions: {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, {{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, {{p|Landorus}}, {{p|Kubfu}}, {{p|Urshifu}}, {{p|Enamorus}}, {{p|Okidogi}}, {{p|Munkidori}}, {{p|Fezandipiti}}, {{p|Ogerpon}}, and {{p|Terapagos}}). In the [[core series]] games, no Legendary Pokémon can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] or hatch from an {{pkmn|Egg}}. With the exception of {{p|Type: Null}}, {{p|Cosmog}}, and {{p|Kubfu}}, and their respective evolutionary families, Legendary Pokémon cannot [[Evolution|evolve]], although many are able to [[List of Pokémon with form differences|change form]] and are part of a group, such as a [[Legendary group|duo]], a [[Legendary group|trio]], a quartet and even a quintet.<br />
<br />
Much like [[starter Pokémon]] appear at the beginning of each [[regional Pokédex]] and their generation's portion of the [[National Pokédex]], Legendary Pokémon typically appear just before the end, with [[Mythical Pokémon]] immediately after them.<br />
<br />

<br />
====Multiple Legendary Pokémon====<br />
Many Legendary Pokémon can be obtained at most once per save file (excluding [[Event Pokémon|Pokémon events]]); in order to obtain multiple, a player would need to [[trade]] Pokémon between games. However, in some cases, there are multiple Legendary Pokémon of the same species either found or mentioned in-game, even though they may not be available to the player.<br />
<br />
* The existence of [[regional form]]s with the [[legendary birds]] {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} implies that a trio separate from [[Kanto]] existed in an isolated peripheral population (in this case [[Galar]]) and hence formed a new species.<br />
* In some cases, the [[Pokédex]] mentions multiple Legendary Pokémon of the same species.<br />
** The Pokédex says about {{p|Latias}}: "''They make a small herd of only several members.''"<br />
** The Pokédex says about {{p|Entei}}: "''It is said that one is born every time a new volcano appears.''"<br />
** The Pokédex says about {{p|Cobalion}}: "''From the moment it's born, this Pokémon radiates the air of a leader.''" implying its birth is a repetitive occurrence.<br />
** The Pokédex says about [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Terapagos|Normal Forme]] {{p|Terapagos}}: "''It’s thought that this Pokémon lived in ancient Paldea until it got caught in seismic shifts and went extinct.''"<br />
* {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Kubfu}}, {{p|Urshifu}}, and {{p|Terapagos}} are the only Legendary Pokémon that can be of either gender, which may imply the existence of at least two individuals of their species.<br />
** In [[The Isle of Armor]], the player receives a Kubfu, while [[Mustard]] also has one. Mustard's Kubfu will evolve into an Urshifu of the form corresponding to the [[Towers of Two Fists|tower]] not chosen by the player.<br />
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}} and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player can see a wild {{p|Articuno}} at the {{rt|15|Kanto}} gate to [[Fuchsia City]] through a pair of binoculars at any time, even after catching Articuno at the [[Seafoam Islands]].<br />
* In {{LGPE}}, the legendary birds are rare spawns, which allows the player to encounter and catch multiple of each in a single save file.<br />
* In {{game|Scarlet and Violet|s}}, the player can obtain two {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}. Both were brought into [[Paldea]] through a time machine created by [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}}.<br />
* Because {{p|Type: Null}} and {{p|Silvally}} are synthetic species, it was possible for humans to create multiple individuals. Three were confirmed to have been created in [[Alola]] by the [[Aether Foundation]]: one is owned by [[Gladion]], and another was given to {{ga|Elio}}/{{ga|Selene}} by Gladion. The whereabouts of the third Type: Null are unknown. A fourth individual was later created in [[Galar]] by [[Macro Cosmos]] using notes stolen from the Aether Foundation.<br />
* {{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}} are capable of together creating a {{p|Cosmog}} supposedly as their unique way of breeding but it appears they're rarely seen in the same [[Pokémon universe|universe]] at the same time, making this a rare event. Three Cosmog were confirmed to exist, one stolen from [[Aether Paradise]] by [[Lillie]], nicknamed [[Nebby]], one created by Nebby and a Lunala{{sup/7|S}}/Solgaleo{{sup/7|M}} found in another universe's [[Lake of the Moone]]{{sup/7|S}}/[[Lake of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|M}} and one found by an old lady in [[Freezington]] in the [[Crown Tundra]], nicknamed Fwoofy.<br />
* Most Legendary Pokémon can be encountered multiple times in [[Dynamax Adventures]] in the Crown Tundra. However, the player can only catch one of each.<br />
* Legendary Pokémon that are eligible to do so may appear in [[Battle facility|Battle facilities]] and may be used by multiple Trainers, including the facilities' leaders. This can occur regardless of whether or not the player possesses any of these Pokémon.<br />
** For instance, [[Palmer]] has {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Heatran}}, and {{p|Cresselia}}, which are also available to the player in the [[Sinnoh]]-based games.<br />
* Sometimes, multiple Legendary Pokémon seem to be present by comparing multiple games in the [[Core series#Timeline|timeline]].<br />
** For instance, [[Brandon]] has the three [[legendary birds]],{{sup/3|E}} while these birds are also found as wild Pokémon in [[Kanto]].{{sup/3|FRLG}} Three years later, they are still found as wild Pokémon in Kanto{{sup/4|HGSS}} as well as [[Sinnoh]]{{sup/4|Pt}}.<br />
<br />
===In the spin-off games===<br />
====Trading Card Game series====<br />
{{main|Legendary Cards}}<br />
In [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and [[Pokémon Trading Card Game 2: The Invasion of Team GR!]], there are four [[Legendary Cards]], which are central to the plot: {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Articuno|P03}}, {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Zapdos|P10}}, {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Moltres|P02}}, and {{TCG ID|Pokémon Card GB|Dragonite|promo}}. The latter is a [[Pseudo-legendary Pokémon|pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon.<br />
<br />
===In the anime===<br />
Legendary Pokémon typically make their anime debut in a {{pkmn|movie}}, rather than first appearing in a normal episode. Many are worshipped as {{wp|deity|gods}} by particular groups of people. In the anime, they are often only seen by special {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, usually [[Ash Ketchum]] and people who have a special connection to them. Ill-intentioned people often seek to possess them, due to their power and rarity. Sometimes, some Legendary Pokémon have stubborn behavior that they didn't trust humans like Raikou.<br />
<br />
Trainers using Legendary and Mythical Pokémon that they have in [[Poké Ball]]s, or even as a non-owned Pokémon, are not unheard of. [[Noland]] has befriended and fought official {{pkmn|battle}}s with an {{TP|Noland|Articuno}}. Likewise, {{an|Brandon}} in the anime owned the three {{TP|Brandon|legendary giants}} in Poké Balls and trained them. {{si|Tobias}} was seen participating in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] with the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Latios}}. Another Trainer was seen entering the same tournament with a {{p|Heatran}}. A [[Nurse Joy]] who visited the [[Pewter Gym]] under assignment of the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency|PIA]] kept a {{p|Latias}} in a Poké Ball. {{an|Gladion}} stole a {{p|Type: Null}}, which he managed to evolve into a {{TP|Gladion|Silvally}}. [[Goh]] has also succeeded in catching several Legendary Pokémon, including {{TP|Goh|Eternatus}}, a {{TP|Goh|Suicune}}, and a {{p|Regieleki}}. [[Project Mew]] members [[Quillon]] and [[Danika]] both own an {{p|Urshifu}} each, and the former has also caught the three original legendary giants for research purposes. {{Gary}} was seen catching a {{p|Regidrago}} as a part of a Project Mew mission, while [[Horace]] was later revealed to have caught a {{p|Virizion}} during his own simultaneous mission.<br />
<br />
In the anime, there are some cases in which Legendary Pokémon are implied to breed in the wild, as seen with {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Latios}}, and {{p|Latias}}.<br />
<br />
==List of Legendary Pokémon==<br />
Of the {{numpkmn}} Pokémon species, 71 are Legendary Pokémon ({{#expr: (71/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}%). Each released [[generation]] has introduced at least three Legendary Pokémon.<br />
{{spoilers}}<br />
<br />
===Generation I===<br />
Four Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation I]], with one trio and one standalone Legendary Pokémon.<br />
<br />
====Legendary birds====<br />
{{main|Legendary birds}}<br />
[[File:LGPE Legendary birds.png|thumb|200px|{{ga|Chase}} and {{ga|Elaine}} battling {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}}]]<br />
The three legendary birds, also known as the winged mirages, are the resident [[Legendary group|Legendary trio]] of the [[Kanto]] region. Each of them is based on a mythical bird, and each is associated with a {{season}} (though none of the three is associated with autumn).<br />
<br />
In the games, all three are available in the Kanto region in all of its appearances except for [[Generation II]]. {{p|Articuno}} takes up residence in the [[Seafoam Islands]] in the south, {{p|Zapdos}} in the [[Kanto Power Plant|Power Plant]] (next to it in Generation IV) in the east, and {{p|Moltres}} in a variety of places, {{ka|Victory Road}}, [[Mt. Ember]], or [[Mt. Silver Cave]], depending on the generation. In {{game|Platinum}}, they are also found {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Sinnoh]]. One also appears in Generation VI {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Kalos]] before heading to the [[Sea Spirit's Den]], where it can be battled and caught.<br />
<br />
In [[The Crown Tundra]], each bird gains a [[Galarian form]].<br />
<br />
In the anime, the legendary birds appear together in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', in which they rule over the islands surrounding [[Shamouti Island]]. If they are disturbed and begin to fight, only {{OBP|Lugia|M02}} can stop them, though it will fail without additional help from the Chosen One. Separately, Articuno appears in ''[[EP187|Moving Pictures]]'', ''[[EP188|Spring Fever]]'', ''[[EP189|Freeze Frame]]'', ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'', ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]'', and ''[[JN102|Battling in the Freezing Raid!]]'', while Zapdos appears in ''[[EP242|As Clear As Crystal]]'', ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'', ''[[XY110|An Electrifying Rage!]]'', and ''[[JN040|A Crakling Raid Battle!]]'', and Moltres appears in ''[[EP074|All Fired Up!]]'', ''[[HS18|The Search for the Legend]]'', ''[[XY086|A Legendary Photo Op!]]'', and ''[[JN068|Advice to Goh!]]''.<br />
<br />
====Mewtwo====<br />
[[File:PE Mewtwo scene.png |thumb|left|250px|{{ga|Elaine}} encountering {{p|Mewtwo}} in the [[Cerulean Cave]]]]<br />
{{p|Mewtwo}} is a catlike Pokémon which is an enhanced clone of the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}}. Mewtwo has two [[Mega Evolution]]s, which increase its [[base stat]] total to 780.<br />
<br />
In the games, Mewtwo was too powerful for its creators and escaped from the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}, wrecking it in the process. Mewtwo then made its home in [[Cerulean Cave]], where all kinds of powerful Pokémon live.<br />
<br />
In the anime, {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} was featured prominently, appearing in several episodes of the [[original series]], [[M01|the first movie]], and [[Mewtwo Returns|the first special episode]] and reappeared in ''[[JN046|Getting More Than You Battled For!]]''. In the anime, Mewtwo was created by a group of scientists funded by [[Team Rocket]] boss {{an|Giovanni}} to create an enhanced clone of {{p|Mew}} for his own use. Although Mewtwo is initially a very angry Pokémon, viewing all humans as evil due to the acts of the scientists and Giovanni, after [[Ash Ketchum]] sacrifices himself to stop the fighting between Mew and Mewtwo, Mewtwo's heart softens, and it learns that some humans do care about their, and all, Pokémon. Meeting up with Ash again, Mewtwo is further shown that, despite being a genetically-enhanced clone of Mew, it and the other clones are no different to normal Pokémon, and because it erased Ash and his friends' memory at the end of their first meeting, realizes that Ash himself truly does care for others, even if he doesn't know them. It later appears on Cero Island where Ash and Goh, the later having mistaken it for Mew due to his obsession with catching it, challenge it to a battle, where it easily won.<br />
<br />
In the anime, another {{OBP|Mewtwo|M16}} appeared in ''[[M16|Pokémon the Movie: Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', who also appeared as Mega Mewtwo Y.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
===Generation II===<br />
More Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation II]], adding five more Legendary Pokémon for a running total of 9. The Legendary Pokémon introduced in this generation down can be separated into a trio and a duo.<br />
<br />
====Legendary beasts====<br />
{{main|Legendary beasts}}<br />
[[File:Entei Raikou Suicune.png|thumb|220px|[[Eusine]] and {{ga|Lyra}} discover {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}} in the basement of the [[Burned Tower]], drawn by Kenkichi Toyama<ref>https://twitter.com/El_Aleph87/status/1304929135966539777</ref>]]<br />
Like the legendary birds of the previous generation, a second trio of similar types was introduced in the neighboring [[Johto]] region. These Legendary beasts, so named because their features are based on many different creatures, both real and mythical, as well as mythological deities, were trapped in the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] when it was struck by lightning and burned to the ground, resulting in their death. The trio was revived by the power of {{p|Ho-Oh}} and now [[roaming Pokémon|roam across the land]] because of their great power. It is unknown whether the three were already a Suicune, Raikou, and Entei when they died, or whether they were simply three non-Legendary Pokémon, and Ho-Oh reincarnated them as the first Legendary beasts. In the case of the latter, it is possible that these three would be the original three beasts, who created multiple descendants. For example, a new Entei is said to be born whenever a new volcano is formed.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet]], a sketch resembling the members of the Legendary Beasts can be found in the [[Scarlet Book]], dubbed "An Imagined Pokémon". Later, in the game's [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]] DLC, [[Paradox Pokémon|Paradox counterparts]] of Suicune, Entei and Raikou are discovered in the form of {{p|Walking Wake}}, {{P|Gouging Fire}} and {{p|Raging Bolt}}, that were all brought to [[Area Zero]] at some point by [[Professor Sada]] through her [[time machine]].<br />
<br />
In the games, more than one of each exists, with only the trio that roams Johto after being discovered in Brass Tower's basement during [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] being that of the legend. Each was captured and changed into a [[Shadow Pokémon]] by [[Cipher]] in {{g|Colosseum}}, while one of the three, depending on the player's [[starter Pokémon]] choice, roams Kanto in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, {{p|Entei}} for {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Raikou}} for {{p|Squirtle}}, and {{p|Suicune}} for {{p|Charmander}}.<br />
<br />
In the anime, the Legendary beasts did not appear together until [[M13|the thirteenth movie]], despite being introduced in Generation II. It appears that an initial plan for the three Johto-era {{pkmn|movie}}s was to have each feature one of the Legendary beasts in a central role, with {{OBP|Entei|M03}} taking a central role in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'' and {{OBP|Suicune|M04}} taking the stage in ''[[M04|Celebi: The Voice of the Forest]]''. This did not pan out, however, possibly due to the canning of Johto's {{p|Celebi}} plotline, and Raikou was relegated to a role in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', featuring anime characters based on {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Kris}}, rather than [[M05|the fifth movie]], which focused on Legendary Pokémon from the then-upcoming [[Generation III]] instead.<br />
<br />
Each of the beasts has made an episodic appearance, as well, with Entei appearing in ''[[EP259|Entei at Your Own Risk]]'', Raikou briefly appearing in ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]'', and Suicune having the most prominence (as in the games) through its appearance in ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile]]'', ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]'', ''[[DP028|Drifloon On the Wind!]]'', ''[[JN053|Healing the Healer!]]'' and ''[[JN107|Big Brother to the Rescue!]]''. In ''Healing the Healer!'', a {{TP|Goh|Suicune}} was {{pkmn2|caught}} by [[Goh]], making him the first character in the anime to officially own a Legendary beast.<br />
<br />
====Tower duo====<br />
{{main|Tower duo}}<br />
[[File:2020 Legendary Pokemon Gen II.jpg|thumb|left|200px|{{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}} flying over [[Ecruteak City]]]]<br />
The first [[game mascot]]s that were also Legendary Pokémon, {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}} are a pair of legendary birds which formerly resided in [[Ecruteak City]] atop tall towers, leading to their designation. However, when the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]], the home of Lugia, was struck by lightning and burned to the ground, they both flew away, Lugia resolving to make its new home in the [[Whirl Islands]] and Ho-Oh to search the world for a pure-hearted Trainer. The two are thought to be as closely related as they are polar opposites, being based on the eastern legends of the {{wp|Fenghuang}} and {{wp|Ryūjin}}.<br />
<br />
In the games, Lugia does not play a central role in the Generation II storyline, instead being mentioned only as having lived in Ecruteak City before the Brass Tower burned. It is found in the Whirl Islands in the Generation II games and their {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|remakes}} if the player holds a [[Silver Wing]]. It reaches prominence in the storyline of {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, in which [[Shadow Lugia|one]] is corrupted by [[Cipher]] to become the ultimate [[Shadow Pokémon]], unable to be purified. It is also available on [[Navel Rock]] in Generation III, as an event-exclusive Legendary Pokémon.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Lugia is featured in a central role in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', in which it is revealed that {{Ash}} is the Chosen One who must help it to quell the fighting of the [[legendary birds]]. Another pair of them appeared when Ash and his friends traveled to the Whirl Islands in Johto. Likewise, in ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]'', {{OBP|Latios|M05}} was stated to have a father. This implies that some Legendary Pokémon can breed in the wild. Lugia appeared again in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]''.<br />
<br />
Ho-Oh has a much greater focus during Generation II, being named as the creator of the Legendary beasts. It can be found, if the player has a [[Rainbow Wing]], atop the [[Bell Tower]] in the Generation II games and their remakes. It makes an appearance in {{g|Colosseum}}, as well, as a reward for purifying all Shadow Pokémon and clearing [[Mt. Battle]]'s 100-battle challenge, and on [[Navel Rock]] like Lugia.<br />
<br />
In the anime, {{an|Ho-Oh}} is notably the first Legendary Pokémon that appeared (outside of the [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|opening animation]], at least), flying over a rainbow as [[Ash Ketchum]] started his journey, at the end of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. Ash has subsequently seen it several times over the course of his journey, but has never come face-to-face with it. Ho-Oh featured in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'' in a prominent role.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
===Generation III===<br />
Many more Legendary Pokémon were added to the roster in [[Generation III]], with the eight new Legendary Pokémon bringing the total to 17. At this point in the series, Legendary Pokémon began to have a greater role in the storyline of the core series games, with the [[villainous team]]s plotting to reawaken the ancient Legendary Pokémon for their own use.<br />
<br />
Many of the stories regarding the legendaries were slightly changed, or given a new perspective in the [[remakes]] of the first Generation III core series games, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. Five of them also received new forms.<br />
<br />
====Legendary giants====<br />
{{main|Legendary giants}}<br />
[[File:Brandon legendary titans Adventures.png|thumb|200px|{{p|Regice}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regirock}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]<br />
This third former trio of Legendary Pokémon, based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend, is featured minimally in [[Hoenn]] legend. This Legendary trio, as well as its leader, {{p|Regigigas}}, is commonly considered to have the most complicated method of in-game availability, with puzzles made of [[braille]] in the Hoenn region being the keys to unlocking their mystery.<br />
<br />
As complex as the method in which they are obtained is the legend of the giants, which is told in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and finally completed in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Long ago, an ancient Pokémon, {{p|Regigigas}}, was said to have moved the continents into their present positions by pulling them with ropes. After it was finished, it created in its image three Pokémon: {{p|Regirock}}, from clay, {{p|Regice}}, from ice, and {{p|Registeel}}, from magma. Ancient people, seeing that the Pokémon was so powerful, sealed it away in the [[Snowpoint Temple]], while those it had created were separated from it and taken to the Hoenn region, sealed in three chambers, and left in the hopes that one day, someone would unlock the chambers and be able to tame the three so as to tame Regigigas. They are available in the [[Desert Ruins]], [[Island Cave]], and [[Ancient Tomb]] in Hoenn; as well as the {{si|Rock Peak Ruins}}, {{si|Iceberg Ruins}}, and {{si|Iron Ruins}} in [[Sinnoh]] with an event {{p|Regigigas}}; the [[Underground Ruins]] in [[Unova]]. In [[Galar]]'s [[Crown Tundra]], they are found in the similarly named {{gal|Rock Peak Ruins|Rock Peak}}, {{gal|Iceberg Ruins|Iceberg}}, and {{gal|Iron Ruins}}.<br />
<br />
In the anime, the [[Legendary giants (M08)|three legendary giants]] starred together guarding the [[Tree of Beginning]] in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', as well as members of {{an|Brandon}}'s team in the Battle Frontier saga.<br />
<br />
In [[The Crown Tundra]] of [[Generation VIII]], the trio becomes a quintet with two more introduced members: {{p|Regieleki}} and {{p|Regidrago}}.<br />
<br />
====Eon duo====<br />
{{main|Eon duo}}<br />
[[File:ORAS Latios Latias Southern Island.png|thumb|left|250px|{{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} flying around {{ga|Brendan}} and {{ga|May}}]]<br />
While {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} do not have a distinct legend behind them, they are incredibly rare, with only one of the two available in normal gameplay and the other available through an event.<br />
<br />
Latios and Latias take on counterpart availability in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} as well as {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, with Latios being a [[roaming Pokémon]] in Ruby and SoulSilver, and Latias doing the same in Sapphire and HeartGold. In Emerald, after the player has defeated [[Wallace]], their mother will ask if the Pokémon mentioned on TV was red or blue, and depending on that, one of the two will be roaming Hoenn. The other member of the duo will be found on [[Southern Island]], accessible by [[Eon Ticket]], in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and in [[Pewter City]], through the [[Enigma Stone]] event, in HeartGold and SoulSilver.<br />
<br />
In Generation VI, Latias and Latios gained the ability to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the Eon duo plays a much larger role in the main game's plot. They sense the grave danger Hoenn is about to face from the actions of Team Magma{{sup/6|OR}}/Aqua{{sup/6|AS}}, and while the {{player}} is talking to {{Steven}} on the east side of {{rt|118|Hoenn}}, {{p|Latias}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Latios}}{{sup/6|AS}} appears before the two, asking for their help. The player and Steven ride the Eon Pokémon to protect its counterpart from [[Courtney]]{{sup/6|OR}}/[[Matt]]{{sup/6|AS}} and their subordinate. After the fight {{p|Latios}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Latias}}{{sup/6|AS}} joins the player's party, holding its respective [[Mega Stone]]. Noticing the Mega Stone, Steven also gives the player a [[Mega Bracelet]]. After defeating Groudon{{sup/6|OR}}/Kyogre{{sup/6|AS}}, the player receives an item called the [[Eon Flute]] from Steven, highlighting the special bond between the two. The items enables the player to summon the Eon Pokémon and use it to [[soaring in the sky|soar]] through the skies of Hoenn.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Latios and Latias were the stars of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]'', in which the two guarded the city of [[Alto Mare]]. With a strong connection to the [[Soul Dew]], the two were responsible for protecting it from {{OBP|Annie|M05}} and [[Oakley]], who wished to steal it. In the main series, {{si|Tobias}} used a Latios against Ash, as his second Pokémon in the first semi-final battle of the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]]. A [[Nurse Joy]] had a Latias when testing the Pewter Gym in [[DPS02]]. Both Latios and Latias appeared in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''; in this film, both of them were capable of Mega Evolution. In ''[[JN137|The Road Most Traveled!]]'', a Latias started following Ash and Pikachu after she was found and rescued by them. A Latios also appears in ''[[JN145|Rocket Revengers!]]'' as well, although he is stubborn Pokémon and distrustful towards humans.<br />
<br />
====Super-ancient Pokémon====<br />
{{main|Super-ancient Pokémon}}<br />
[[File:Super-ancient Pokémon.png|thumb|220px|A cataclysmic battle between {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}, drawn by [[Ken Sugimori]]]]<br />
This trio of Super-ancient Pokémon, known by fans as the weather trio due to their [[weather]]-related [[Ability|Abilities]], serve as the [[game mascot]]s of {{3v|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, and are the first Legendary trio to all be game mascots. The trio represents the three major components of the Earth: the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the atmosphere. Said to have expanded the land and sea, {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} are among the most powerful Legendary Pokémon, while {{p|Rayquaza}} prevents the two from quarreling.<br />
<br />
During the course of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, [[Team Magma]] or [[Team Aqua]], depending on the version, seeks out Groudon or Kyogre respectively, with the intention of awakening them to make more homes for Pokémon of the land or sea. Eventually, the plan goes wrong, and the player is forced to defeat or capture the Legendary Pokémon to stop a global disaster. In {{game|Emerald}}, instead, both teams are on the loose, intending to awaken their respective Legendary Pokémon, and only by interference from the player and {{p|Rayquaza}} does the fight end up resolved.<br />
<br />
The three members of the trio received new forms in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. Rayquaza is now able to Mega Evolve, and Groudon and Kyogre can undergo [[Primal Reversion]] while holding their respective Orb. Primal Reversion is considered the opposite of Mega Evolution. The latter is the outcome of the connection between Pokémon and human, and the former is derived solely from the Pokémon itself. While Groudon{{sup/6|OR}}/Kyogre{{sup/6|AS}} are again sought by Team Magma{{sup/6|OR}}/Aqua{{sup/6|AS}}, Rayquaza is the target of a mysterious girl named [[Zinnia]] during the post game plot called Delta Episode.<br />
<br />
In the game, their history is revealed: thousands of years ago, during the primal age, the world was overflowing with natural energy. Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre fought over that energy in endless furious clashes. In the face of Primal Groudon and Kyogre's great power, people could do nothing. However, Rayquaza intervened, and its power overwhelmed that of the two Primal Pokémon, and peace returned to the world. A thousand years later, a meteoroid hit the earth, causing cracks in the ground that unleashed natural energy, causing Groudon and Kyogre to re-battle each other. Humans had a collective memory of how Rayquaza saved their race long ago, and that wish combined with the power of the Meteorite allowed Rayquaza to Mega Evolve for the first time and calm the two from quarreling.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Groudon and Kyogre appeared in the two-part episode consisting of ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''. In these episodes, Team Magma and Team Aqua finally succeed in awakening the two, as in the games, though their conflict is resolved very quickly. Rayquaza appeared in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', where it fought against the pair of {{OBP|Deoxys|M07}}. The super-ancient Pokémon all made a starring appearance in their Primal/Mega Forms in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', engaging in a violent clash with many other legendaries.<br />
<br />
===Generation IV===<br />
Nine more Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation IV]], bringing the total to 26 Legendary Pokémon. Many of the Legendary Pokémon of this generation have little connection to the plot of the games, instead being minor, post-[[Hall of Fame]] sidequests for the player to go on. Three of the newly introduced Legendary Pokémon (four prior to the {{game|Platinum}} expansion of the Pokédex) are not in the Sinnoh [[regional Pokédex]], appearing only in the [[National Pokédex]].<br />
<br />
====Lake guardians====<br />
{{main|Lake guardians}}<br />
[[File:Lake guardians anime.png|thumb|250px|{{p|Azelf}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Uxie}} coming out of a portal in the anime]]<br />
The lake guardians, [[Sinnoh]]'s resident Legendary trio, represent the spirit of all consciousness, with {{p|Uxie}} embodying knowledge, {{p|Mesprit}} embodying emotion, and {{p|Azelf}} embodying willpower. According to legend, having been created by {{p|Arceus|the Original One}}, the trio have the power to tame the powerful dragons it also created.<br />
<br />
In the games, Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf are found in the caverns of [[Lake Acuity]], [[Lake Verity]], and [[Lake Valor]], though Mesprit will roam Sinnoh after the player has encountered it, rather than battle immediately as the other two will. The trio are captured by [[Team Galactic]]'s {{tc|Commander}}s, [[Jupiter]], [[Mars]], and [[Saturn]], and subjected to the experiments of [[Charon]] to draw out the [[Red Chain]] from the gems in their bodies. [[Cyrus]] summons {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, and alone, the lake guardians' power is not enough to stop them. {{p|Giratina}} interferes and draws Cyrus into the Distortion World, where the lake guardians assist the player in navigation through Giratina's lair.<br />
<br />
In the anime, the lake guardians appeared, first in spirit form, in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'', ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals]]'', and ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', to {{an|Dawn}}, {{Ash}}, and {{an|Brock}}. They were captured by [[J]], who had been hired by [[Team Galactic]], in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', and were freed by Ash, Dawn, and Brock to stop the power of Dialga and Palkia in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''.<br />
<br />
====Pokémon of Myth====<br />
{{main|Pokémon of Myth}}<br />
[[File:Dialga-Palkia-Giratina.png|thumb|left|220px|{{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} confronting Origin {{p|Giratina}} at [[Spear Pillar]]]]<br />
The Legendary creators of the Pokémon universe, the Pokémon of Myth consist of {{p|Dialga}} of time, {{p|Palkia}} of space, and {{p|Giratina}} of antimatter. Like the super-ancient Pokémon before them, they each serve as the mascots of [[Sinnoh]]'s trio of games, {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.<br />
<br />
In the games, Dialga and Palkia are sought by [[Cyrus]] to destroy and then remake the universe without spirit, a feature he hates about humanity. In Diamond and Pearl, Dialga or Palkia can be caught at [[Spear Pillar]], while Giratina may be obtained after the Pokémon League has been conquered. In Platinum, however, Giratina interferes with Cyrus's planned destruction of the universe and may be captured in its home, the [[Distortion World]], while Dialga and Palkia cannot be found until [[Cynthia]] has been defeated.<br />
<br />
In the anime, {{mov|Dialga}} and {{mov|Palkia}} appeared together, fighting in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', while Dialga and {{mov|Giratina}} appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. The three appeared together in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' and ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''. Dialga and Palkia were also summoned at the Spear Pillar and chained by Cyrus in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', but were freed when he escaped into another universe and the Red Chain was shattered by Ash, Dawn, Brock, and their Pokémon.<br />
<br />
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} only, Dialga and Palkia were referenced as "mythical Pokémon" (Japanese: 神話のポケモン ''mythical Pokémon''); however, this pre-dates the term [[Mythical Pokémon]] (Japanese: 幻のポケモン ''Illusory Pokémon'') and has a different Japanese name.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
====Cresselia====<br />
[[File:Cresselia anime.png|thumb|250px|{{p|Cresselia}} in the anime]]<br />
{{p|Cresselia}} is a {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon who represents the {{wp|crescent moon}}, a sign of hope and good dreams.<br />
<br />
In the games, Cresselia can be found on [[Fullmoon Island]] as part of a post-League quest to rid {{tc|Sailor}} [[Eldritch]]'s son of a nightmare. She will flee immediately, roaming Sinnoh and leaving behind a [[Lunar Feather]], which will heal the boy. In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], Cresselia can be found on [[Marvelous Bridge]] after visiting the [[Strange House]].<br />
<br />
Cresselia made her debut appearance in the anime in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]'', in which she fought briefly against a {{p|Darkrai}}.<br />
<br />
====Heatran====<br />
[[File:Ranger 3 Heatran mission art.png|thumb|left|220px|{{ra|Ben}} and {{ra|Summer}} battling {{p|Heatran}}, drawn by [[Kouki Saitou]]]]<br />
{{p|Heatran}} is the embodiment of the planet's boiling {{wp|core}}, appearing in [[Stark Mountain]] in [[Sinnoh]], [[Reversal Mountain]] in [[Unova]], and [[Scorched Slab]]{{sup/6|ORAS}} in [[Hoenn]], where it was said to have been born at the same time Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina created Sinnoh at the [[Spear Pillar]] and created the [[Battle Zone]].<br />
<br />
Heatran first appeared in the anime in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the control of [[Marcus]], and later appeared in ''[[DP169|Pokémon Ranger: Heatran Rescue!]]'' as part of a Pokémon Ranger rescue mission.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
====Regigigas====<br />
[[File:Regigigas PG.png|thumb|250px|{{p|Regigigas}} at [[Snowpoint Temple]] in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]<br />
{{p|Regigigas}} is the master of the [[legendary giants]], having created them in ancient times and was said to have moved the continents in place, pulling them by rope.<br />
<br />
In the games, Regigigas is found at the [[Snowpoint Temple]]{{sup/4|DPPt}}, [[Twist Mountain]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}, and the [[Island Cave]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}, though it will not awaken unless the first three members of the legendary giants are in the player's party. It is found in the [[Ultra Space Wilds|Cave World]] of the [[Ultra Space Wilds]]{{sup/7|UM}} with no prerequisites. It is also found in a certain [[Pokémon Den]] in [[Giant's Bed]]{{sup/8|SwSh}}, but will only awaken if all legendary giants (now including {{p|Regieleki}} and {{p|Regidrago}}) are in the party. Since the player can choose to capture only one of the two new giants, they must obtain the other through [[trade|trading]].<br />
<br />
Regigigas appeared in the anime in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', in which it attempted to stop a glacier from destroying [[Ten'i Village]]. Another appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', in which it was hunted by [[J]] and defended by {{an|Brandon}}.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
===Generation V===<br />
Nine additional Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation V]], totaling 35 Legendary Pokémon. {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} played a large role in the storyline of {{game|Black and White|s}}, with the respective mascot Pokémon being a necessary and unavoidable capture to progress to the end of the game.<br />
<br />
====Swords of Justice====<br />
{{main|Swords of Justice}}<br />
[[File:Swords of Justice M15.png|thumb|250px|{{p|Terrakion}}, {{p|Cobalion}} and {{p|Virizion}} in the anime]]<br />
{{p|Cobalion}}, {{p|Terrakion}}, and {{p|Virizion}} are a trio of Legendary Pokémon based on the titular characters of the 1844 French novel ''{{wp|The Three Musketeers}}'', and partially on hooved mammals such as deer, antelopes, oxen, goats, and horses. According to legend, they protect Pokémon from having their habitats destroyed by humans and have been known to have attacked human castles during the Middle Ages. Like the Three Musketeers, they are considered a trio but have a fourth, younger member in the form of {{p|Keldeo}}, a Mythical Pokémon, whom the other three rescued and raised after its home was destroyed by fire. All four of them can use their horns like swords, and learn their former [[signature move]], {{m|Sacred Sword}}, at level 42 (43 for {{p|Keldeo}}, most likely a reference to it becoming part of the group later and therefore requiring more training to hone its sword skills).<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet]], a sketch resembling the members of the Swords of Justice can be found in the [[Violet Book]], dubbed "An Imagined Pokémon". Later, in the game's [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]] DLC, [[Paradox Pokémon|Paradox counterparts]] of Virizion, Terrakion and Cobalion are discovered in the form of {{p|Iron Leaves}}, {{P|Iron Boulder}} and {{p|Iron Crown}}, that were all brought to [[Area Zero]] at some point by [[Professor Turo]] through his [[time machine]].<br />
<br />
They made their anime debut together, in the fifteenth Pokémon film ''[[M15|Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice]]'', where Keldeo was responsible for the freezing of the other three during a battle against {{OBP|Kyurem|M15}}, and sought help from {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. In the movie, Cobalion acts as the leader of the {{OBP|Swords of Justice|M15}}, protecting Pokémon and humans alike through the world.<br />
<br />
==== Forces of Nature====<br />
{{main|Forces of Nature}}<br />
[[File:Forces of Nature myth.png|thumb|left|250px|{{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}} in the anime]]<br />
{{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}} are a trio of Pokémon based on {{wp|kami}}: {{wp|Fūjin}}, god of wind, {{wp|Raijin}}, god of thunder and lightning, and {{wp|Inari Ōkami|Inari}}, a fertility deity. Together the three represent the heavens and the nourishing effect the sky has upon the earth. According to a folktale retold by children at the [[Abundant Shrine]], Landorus punished Tornadus and Thundurus for destroying the land with gales and thunderstorms, and a shrine was built in honor of him. In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]] they receive a new Forme, the Therian Forme, with their old Forme known as the Incarnate Forme; the Formes can be switched between with the [[Reveal Glass]].<br />
<br />
In the anime, the Forces of Nature were sought by [[Team Rocket]] in Unova from ''[[BW056|The Lonely Deino!]]'' until they were able to awaken them on [[Milos Island]] in ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'' and ''[[BW060|Part 2]]''. Tornadus and Thundurus fought on the island, while Ash and his friends awakened Landorus to put a stop to the fight (they all appeared in Incarnate Forme during these episodes). They debuted in Therian Forme in ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', when Team Rocket once again attempted to capture them as the final goal of Operation Tempest. Together, they are said to have the power to control nature, which can be harnessed by one who possesses both {{an|Meloetta}} and the Reveal Glass.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]] of [[Generation VIII]], the trio becomes a quartet with the introduction of {{p|Enamorus}}.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
====Tao trio====<br />
{{main|Tao trio}}<br />
[[File:Tao trio.png|thumb|220px|{{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} confronting {{p|Kyurem}}]]<br />
{{p|Zekrom}} and {{p|Reshiram}} represent balance through the aspects of {{wp|Tao|Yin and Yang}}, respectively. Originally, they were a single dragon that helped found the Unova region's nation, but fighting between the [[Heroes of Truth and Ideals|two brothers]] who founded the nation split them into two halves. Despite this, the two Pokémon do not willingly fight each other.<br />
<br />
In the games, [[Team Plasma]] hunt either Reshiram or Zekrom in {{game|Black and White|s}} in order to use them to liberate all Pokémon from their owners. [[N]] captures one of them and defeats [[Alder]]. The other dragon emerges from the [[Dragon Stones|Dragon Stone]] the player possesses, and the player must capture it and use it to defeat N. After his defeat, N rides off on his dragon to a far-off region. In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], which take place two years later, [[Ghetsis]] revives Team Plasma and captures Kyurem in order to freeze and take control of the Unova region. N confronts him with Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}, but Ghetsis seizes the opportunity to fuse the Tao dragon with Kyurem using the [[DNA Splicers]] to create Black Kyurem{{sup/5|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup/5|W2}}. The player defeats Kyurem and Ghetsis, restoring balance to the region.<br />
<br />
Reshiram and Zekrom are the stars of [[M14|''Pokémon The Movie: White—Victini and Zekrom'' and ''Pokémon The Movie: Black—Victini and Reshiram'']] along with Victini. Zekrom debuted in ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]'' causing [[Ash's Pikachu]]'s electric crisis, and appeared in numerous flashbacks and fantasies afterward. Reshiram also debuted in a cameo at the beginning of ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]'' and had a large role in the "Episode N" arc, as [[Team Plasma]]'s target, appearing in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]''. Reshiram and Zekrom make a cameo appearance in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''.<br />
<br />
{{p|Kyurem}} is related to Reshiram and Zekrom and represents {{wp|Wuji (philosophy)|wuji}}, which is the absence of yin and yang. Using the [[DNA Splicers]], Kyurem can be fused with Reshiram or Zekrom into White Kyurem or Black Kyurem, respectively; with the same item, the fusion can be undone.<br />
<br />
Kyurem is the star of ''[[M15|Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice]]'' along with Keldeo, where it seems like a ferocious Pokémon and can change forms without the DNA Splicers. It is also capable of this when it appears in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''.<br />
<br />
===Generation VI===<br />
Three additional Legendary Pokémon were introduced in [[Generation VI]], totaling 38 Legendary Pokémon. This is the first generation to introduce fewer Legendary Pokémon than the generation before it.<br />
<br />
====Aura trio ====<br />
{{main|Aura trio}}<br />
[[File:Xerneas artwork.png|thumb|left|220px|{{p|Xerneas}} healing a forest, drawn by [[Yusuke Ohmura]]]]<br />
[[File:Z2 50 Percent Forme.png|thumb|220px|{{p|Zygarde|Zygarde 50% Forme}} inside a cavern in the anime]]<br />
[[File:Yveltal artwork.png|thumb|left|220px|{{p|Yveltal}} destroying a city, drawn by [[Yusuke Ohmura]]]]<br />
[[File:Zygarde Complete Forme anime.png|thumb|220px|{{p|Zygarde|Zygarde Complete Forme}} in the anime]]<br />
The Legendary [[game mascot]]s of [[Pokémon X and Y]] are {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}, and they form the [[aura trio]] along with {{p|Zygarde}}. Xerneas and Yveltal represent life and destruction, respectively, while Zygarde is said to monitor the balance of the ecosystem and reveal its power when the ecosystem is disrupted. Xerneas has the power to share eternal life, while Yveltal absorbs the life force of everything around it. Xerneas sleeps in the form of a tree, while Yveltal sleeps in the form of a cocoon. Xerneas and Yveltal have the Abilities {{a|Fairy Aura}} and {{a|Dark Aura}}, respectively, while Zygarde's {{a|Aura Break}} reverses the effects of these Abilities.<br />
<br />
Xerneas has {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Xerneas|two Formes}}, appearing in Active Mode in battle and Neutral Mode otherwise. Yveltal has no form differences. Zygarde appeared only as Zygarde 50% Forme in Pokémon X and Y, but had {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Zygarde|two other Formes}} and two further components introduced in the anime and in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]]. Zygarde's other Formes are Zygarde 10% Forme, a dog-like Forme that includes 10% of Zygarde's full power, and Zygarde Complete Forme, whose power is said to exceed that of Xerneas and Yveltal. Its further components are Zygarde Cells, tiny cell-like creatures that make up Zygarde's body, and Zygarde Cores, cell-like creatures said to be its mind.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon X and Y]], [[Lysandre]] captures Xerneas or Yveltal to use their power in the [[ultimate weapon]] to create a "beautiful world" in his image. Either Xerneas or Yveltal are captured by the player at the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] upon awakening from their dormant forms. Zygarde 50% Forme can be found in [[Terminus Cave]] after the player enters the Hall of Fame.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Xerneas and Yveltal starred in the movie ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'', along with Diancie, where Xerneas and Yveltal are shown to be residents of the [[Allearth Forest]]. Xerneas made a minor appearance in ''[[XY041|Foggy Pokémon Orienteering!]]'', being responsible for causing Ash and his friends to get lost in fog during the orienteering activity.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Zygarde debuted in ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'' in its 50% Forme alongside a Zygarde Core. A Zygarde Core has traveled alongside Ash and his friends, nicknamed [[Squishy]] by Bonnie, since the beginning of the {{DL|List of Pokémon the Series: XY episodes|XY&Z|''XYZ'' arc}}, and another Zygarde Core referred to as [[Z2]] was captured by [[Team Flare]]. Both of these Cores have appeared in all three Formes of Zygarde.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
===Generation VII===<br />
[[Generation VII]] introduced eleven Legendary Pokémon, totaling 49 Legendary Pokémon. For the first time, Legendary Pokémon capable of evolution are introduced—six of these Pokémon are part of [[Pokémon Evolution|evolutionary chains]].<br />
<br />
====Type: Null and Silvally====<br />
{{main|Beast killer project}}<br />
[[File:Gladion Type Null.png|thumb|left|200px|[[Gladion]]'s {{p|Type: Null}} in the anime]]<br />
[[File:Gladion_with_Silvally.png|thumb|200px|Gladion's {{p|Silvally}} having its typing changed, drawn by [[Hitoshi Ariga]]]]<br />
{{p|Type: Null}} and its evolution {{p|Silvally}} are [[artificial Pokémon]] originally created by the [[Aether Foundation]] for the ''beast killer project'' (BKP) under the direction of Aether President [[Lusamine]],<ref>[[Lusamine]]: "The [[Lillie|daughter]] who stole my {{p|Cosmog}} from me and the [[Gladion|son]] who took '''my''' Type: Null!"({{g|Sun and Moon}})</ref><ref>Faba's blog from {{g|Sun and Moon}}: "My [[Lusamine|superior]]'s [[Gladion|family]] stole the results of our research and ran off."</ref> which aimed to create a Pokémon as an ''Anti-UB Fighting life-form'', Pokémon created to fight against the [[Ultra Beast]]s. Originally dubbed as '''beast killer''' (shortened as '''BK'''), '''Type: Full''' (Japanese: '''タイプ：フル''' ''Type: Full'') was created with data collected from [[Sinnoh]]'s [[Canalave Library]], allowing the Pokémon to change their [[type]] to any of the 18, similar to that of {{p|Arceus}}, with usage of their {{a|RKS System}}. Three models of Type: Full were created by the Aether Foundation in Generation VII. The research on the Pokémon were then stolen by an unknown source and more was created in the [[Galar]] region, being distributed by [[Macro Cosmos]].<br />
<br />
The beast killer project was deemed a failure as the subjects of the project were known to go berserk and resisted their RKS System programming. The three Type: Full were given helmets to restrict the RKS System's effects, renamed to Type: Null, and then were put into cryogenic stasis. Aether Branch Chief [[Faba]] was involved with the creation of the helmet used to suppress the RKS System and was created without the permission of Lusamine. [[Gladion]] managed to evolve a stolen Type: Null that became [[Gladion's Silvally#In the games|his partner]]. He named the evolution Silvally.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Type: Null debuted in ''[[SM037|Rising from the Ruins!]]'' under the nickname "Silvally" and owned by {{an|Gladion}}. It later evolved into Silvally in ''[[SM049|Mission: Total Recall!]]''.<br />
<br />
====Guardian deities====<br />
{{main|Guardian deities}}<br />
[[File:Guardian deities anime.png|thumb|left|250px|The [[Tapu Bulu (Pokémon)|Tapu Bulu]], [[Tapu Koko (Pokémon)|Tapu Koko]], [[Tapu Fini (Pokémon)|Tapu Fini]] and [[Tapu Lele]] at the [[Altar of the Sunne]] in the anime]]<br />
The guardian deities are {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} who protect the islands of the [[Alola]] region. Each of the four main islands in Alola has a guardian deity: {{p|Tapu Koko}} on [[Melemele Island]], {{p|Tapu Lele}} on [[Akala Island]], {{p|Tapu Bulu}} on [[Ula'ula Island]], and {{p|Tapu Fini}} on [[Poni Island]]. The [[island kahuna]]s are each chosen by their island's guardian deity. According the Light of Alola, a book owned by [[Acerola]]'s family found in [[Malie City|Malie Library]], the tapu fought off against a beast from another [[dimension]] and lost. They were rewarded with the [[Tapunium Z]], their signature [[Z-Crystal]]. The beast then created multiple {{p|Cosmog}} for the tapu to take care of and protect as they grow up before returning to [[Ultra Space]]. The Tapu are known to be very kinda in certain situations, lending gifts, but they can also be very cruel, destroying certain locations or harming others when feeling angered. [[Grand trial]]s are often done in favor and praise of the Tapu. Multiple statues can be found throughout the region resembling the tapu, including in front of [[Pokémon League (Alola)|Alola's Pokémon League]] at [[Mount Lanakila]]. Many [[Strange Souvenir]]s in the shape of the guardians are given out to tourists and can be bought in the [[Thrifty Megamart]].<br />
<br />
In the story of Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, [[Lillie]] is tasked with researching Alola's ruins, as [[Nebby]], her Cosmog, finds interest in exploring them. On her way to the [[Ruins of Conflict]], Nebby gets trapped on an unsteady plank bridge being attacked by wild Pokémon, the player swings in to save Nebby. With both falling in danger, Tapu Koko saves them and gifts the player with a [[Sparkling Stone]]. All four of the guardian tapu are seen coming to aid the island in assistance with the island kahuna to fend off a swarm of [[Ultra Beast]]s that were summoned by [[Lusamine]] on [[Aether Paradise]]. Through the events that the player comes across at Poni Island, Hapu is granted the title of kahuna of Poni by Tapu Fini, after her grandfather had [[Death in the Pokémon world|passed away]]. At the end of Sun and Moon only, Lillie and the player return to Tapu Koko's shrine to give it their thanks, there, Tapu Koko initiates a battle with the player where they can defeat, catch, run or lose to the deity and will be rewarded with their own Tapunium Z.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Tapu Koko first appeared in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'' and gave Ash a [[Z-Ring]]. Tapu Lele debuted in ''[[SM020|Partner Promises!]]'', in which it healed Ash. Tapu Bulu and Tapu Fini both debuted in ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]'', in which all four tapu sensed [[Nebby]]'s birth. All four later appeared in ''[[SM051|Family Determination!]]'' and ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'', in which they helped Nebby evolve into {{p|Solgaleo}}.<br />
{{-}}<br />
<br />
====Cosmog and Cosmoem====<br />
{{main|Light trio}}<br />
{{main|Nebby}}<br />
[[File:Lillie and Gladion and Lusamine Cosmog Merchandise 1.jpg|thumb|left|220px|[[Nebby]] the {{p|Cosmog}} and [[Lillie]], drawn by [[Megumi Mizutani]]]]<br />
[[File:Nebby Cosmoem Evolutions.png|thumb|200px|Nebby the {{p|Cosmoem}} in Lillie's hands in [[Pokémon Evolutions]]]]<br />
{{p|Cosmog}} and {{p|Cosmoem}} are {{type|Psychic}} Legendary Pokémon introduced in {{g|Sun and Moon}}, they are the pre-evolutions of {{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}}. Cosmog has a major role in the game as a Pokémon being studied by the [[Aether Foundation]]. As a part of the research on [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and [[Ultra Beast]]s by [[Mohn|Professor Mohn]], the Aether Report in [[Aether Paradise|Secret Lab B]] suggests that Cosmog is a type of Ultra Beast that can create Ultra Wormholes when put in life-taking stress. Cosmog and its evolution line are hypothesized to have come from another [[dimension]] known as [[Ultra Space]]. The Aether Foundation plans to create a device to manipulate Ultra Wormholes using Cosmog. Ultra Wormholes can be created using gasses extracted by Cosmog,<ref>[[Lusamine]], {{g|Sun and Moon}}:''"I was able to open the Ultra Wormhole using just the gases we'd extracted from Cosmog when it was in Aether Paradise, wasn't I?"''</ref> however, more can be created in heavier doses using the Pokémon as a whole. In [[Malie City#Malie Library|Alola legend]], Cosmog were given to the [[Guardian deities]] by [[Light trio|Solgaleo and Lunala]] as heirs of the region, with the guardian tapu watching over the Cosmog until it can grow up and evolve. Cosmog evolves into Cosmoem under extreme stress, causing the Pokémon to condense into a smaller immobile form resembling a cocoon. With the help of the [[Sun Flute|Sun]] and [[Moon Flute]]s being played during certain times of the day, Cosmoem will evolve into either Solgaleo or Lunala when brought to the [[Altar of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|SUS}} or the [[Altar of the Moone]]{{sup/7|MUM}}.<br />
<br />
In the story of {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, [[Lillie]], the daughter of the Aether Foundation's president, [[Lusamine]], spirits a Cosmog away and nicknames it [[Nebby]], hiding it in her bag as she tries to learn more about it by visiting the [[guardian deities]] and their ruins. Throughout the game, Nebby evolves into a Cosmoem and eventually the [[version mascot]] of the game: the {{2t|Psychic|Steel}}-type Solgaleo in Pokémon Sun and the {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}}-type Lunala in Pokémon Moon. Another Cosmog can be obtained by the player at the [[Lake of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|MUM}} or the [[Lake of the Moone]]{{sup/7|SUS}}.<br />
<br />
In the anime, both Solgaleo and Lunala debuted in ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter]]'', in which they emerged from an [[Ultra Wormhole]] at [[Altar of the Sunne]] to create a Cosmog, which Ash found and cared for. {{an|Lillie}} named this Cosmog [[Nebby]]. It evolved into Cosmoem in ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'' and then into Solgaleo in ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]''.<br />

====Light trio====<br />
{{main|Light trio}}<br />
{{main|Nebby}}<br />
[[File:Ultra Sun Ultra Moon Necrozma Solgaleo Lunala artwork.png|thumb|220px|{{p|Solgaleo}}, {{p|Lunala}}, and {{p|Necrozma}}]]<br />
The Light trio is a fan-made term used to describe the group consisting of {{p|Solgaleo}}, {{p|Lunala}}, and {{p|Necrozma}} who resemble the [[Ultra Beast]]s. The Pokémon are written about in a book found in the [[Malie City|Malie Library]] known as the Light of Alola. Like their prevolutions, Cosmog and Cosmoem, Solgaleo and Lunala are said to have come from another world, [[Ultra Space]]. In The Light of Alola, it's written that they were known for giving light to the Alola region when it was first created. According to legends, when Solgaleo and Lunala appeared from an [[Ultra Wormhole]], the ancient kings of Alola bowed down to them and worshiped them. The Guardian Deities battled them and lost, gifting them the [[Tapunium Z]] after their defeat. According to [[Hapu]], an ancient ceremony was given to the legendary Pokémon, by climbing to [[Poni Island|Poni]]'s altar found at the end of the [[Vast Poni Canyon]]. The [[Sun Flute|Sun]] and [[Moon Flute]]s, are then played to summon them. One flute found in [[Ula'ula Island|Ula'ula]]'s Lake, and the other found on [[Exeggutor Island]]. In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Solgaleo and Lunala play an important role in the story, after [[Lillie]]'s Cosmog, [[Nebby]], evolves into Cosmoem, she brings it the altar, along with the player character, in order to summon the legendary, who turns out to be Nebby. Nebby takes the two to the [[Ultra Deep Sea]] so Lillie can confront [[Lusamine|her mother]]. The Legendary Pokémon is then caught by the protagonist under Lillie's direction.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ultra Sun Ultra Moon Necrozma Dusk Mane Dawn Wings.png|thumb|left|225px|Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma]]<br />
Necrozma was believed to have come from an [[Ultra Space|alternate dimension]] long ago. It has a major role in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, where as the "Blinding One", it once shared light across [[Alola]] and Ultra Space before an unknown injury caused Necrozma to lose its true form. This resulted in Necrozma becoming extremely vicious and constantly in pain, which made it steal light from other worlds or the Solgaleo and Lunala in order to sustain itself and regain the form it once had. In the story of the games, Lusamine and the Aether Foundation, with help from the [[Ultra Recon Squad]], have done research on Necrozma, swearing that she would protect Alola from Necrozma or any involved Ultra Beasts. At Poni's altar, Necrozma comes out from an Ultra Wormhole, along with Lusamine, who begs the player and Lillie to get away. Necrozma takes over the body of Nebby, who had just evolved into either Solgaleo{{sup/7|US}} or Lunala{{sup/7|UM}} and flees back to [[Ultra Megalopolis]], where the player must defeat it and return light back to the Alola Region. In the original Sun and Moon, Necrozma can be found in the post game, it's described as being similar to an Ultra Beast, however the [[International Police]] did not see it as such. [[Z-Power]] is known to have come from light produced by Necrozma,<ref>[[Dulse]], {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}: ''"These...auras...must have been particularly strong at the trial locations. And the Z-Power for the Z-Moves... It is also similar to the auras of the Totem Pokémon. Both came to Alola as Necrozma's light!"''</ref> while [[Z-Crystal]]s and [[Sparkling Stone]]s (and [[Z-Ring]]/[[Z-Power Ring]]s by extension) are pieces of Necrozma that channel the Z-Power in order to produce a Z-Move. <br />
<br />
Solgaleo and Lunala have form like-transformations known as {{form|Solgaleo and Lunala|Radiant Sun phase and Full Moon phase}} respectively when using their powers. Necrozma has three additional forms introduced in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]. It transforms into the first two, called Dusk Mane Necrozma and Dawn Wings Necrozma, when it has absorbed Solgaleo and Lunala, respectively. Either of these two forms can further transform into the third, Ultra Necrozma, after absorbing enough light to restore its true form. All three have their own unique Z-Crystals, the [[Solganium Z]], the [[Lunalium Z]] and the [[Ultranecrozium Z]]. Necrozma, while transformed into either Dusk Mane or Dawn Wings, can make use of the other two's Z-Crystals.<br />
<br />
In the anime, Solgaleo and Lunala both debuted in ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]'', where the pair emerged from two [[Ultra Wormhole]] at [[Altar of the Sunne]] to create a {{p|Cosmog}}, which it then gave to the [[guardian deities]] to be placed in a location when it will be found by {{Ash}}. Ultra Necrozma debuted in ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]'' in a book mentioned by [[Acerola]], which revealed how Ultra Necrozma, Solgaleo and Lunala brought light to [[Alola]] and how Ultra Necrozma earned the title of the "Blinding One".<br />

Zacian and Zamazenta work together to protect the [[Galar]] region from any great calamity. 3000 years ago, a cataclysmic event known as the [[Darkest Day]] was caused by Eternatus's awakening, Zacian and Zamazenta awakened as well to defend the region with the help of [[Ancient Galarian Kings|two human heroes]]. Together, they managed to take Eternatus down, forcing it back into another slumber, with Eternatus's defeat and the Darkest Day stopped, the two wolves retreated to the [[Slumbering Weald]] to return to their slumber, turning into statues while the two human heroes became Galar's new kings. <br />
<br />
As the years passed, the two Pokémon were nearly forgotten by history, fake stories were made overtime; at the hall of the Budew Drop Inn, a statue of a single young hero, bearing a sword and a shield was built, said to be the one who defeated all gigantic Pokémon and saving the region, but in Hammerlocke Vault, four tapestries were made, depicting two young men using a sword and a shield to reverse the storm above them and afterwards, being crowned as kings. In the present day though, the truth behind the legend was finally discovered by [[Sonia]], after [[Bede]] destroyed a colorful ancient mural, revealing the stone statues of Zacian, Zamazenta and the two ancient kings of Galar. Sonia eventually published the truth of the legend in [[Sonia's Book|a book]], and became a point of contention from two brothers, [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]], who claimed to be the descendants for the old kings.<br />

In the present day, president [[Rose]] tried to reawaken this Pokémon and bring about the Darkest Day once again, hoping it can fill the region for more years to come, Eternatus escaped though and thanks to [[Leon]], [[Hop]] and the player, Eternatus was stopped once again in its Eternamaxed form with the help of the Hero duo as the player catch the Legendary dragon once and for all, so it causes no more harm to the Galar region.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, {{adv|Casey}} implied that it could be possible to coexist with Eternatus, in which [[Oleana]] claims she'll try to find a way to. In the [[Pokémon Journeys]] anime though, this is ultimately proven where Eternatus is unsealed by [[Sonia]], [[Magnolia]] and [[Leon]] work together to teach Eternatus to coexist with exist, it works so well that during the battle between Leon and [[Ash]], in which a large amount of Dynamax energy is released, Eternatus uses its control over the energy to stable it down, preventing any possible damage.<br />

In the [[The Crown Tundra]], the [[regional form]]s of the legendary birds are introduced. These variants migrate every several decades to the Dyna Tree at [[Dyna Tree Hill]] in the [[Crown Tundra]]. The trio fight each other over it every time they meet, but they don't appear to have such a strong rivalry like their Kantonian counterparts have. For a time, the Galarian legendary birds were believed be the same as the Kantonian [[legendary birds]] due to them possessing similar characteristics to {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fire}}, respectively. The trio shares the same secondary [[type]], [[Flying (type)|Flying]], as their Kantonian counterparts, but they have a different primary type and [[Ability]] each.<br />
<br />
It's still unknown what their true origins are, but it's confirmed that their names don't come from their first-discovered counterparts, but were thought due to their characteristics that possess similarities to the ice, electric and fire Types, making the true connection between both bird trios, mysterious. The Trio can be encountered at [[Dyna Tree Hill]] which triggers a cutscene which all three flee to the three different spots in [[Galar]]. Articuno can be found in the [[Crown Tundra]], Zapdos in the [[Wild Area]], and Moltres in the [[Isle of Armor]].<br />

====Loyal Three====<br />
[[File:The Loyal Three and Pecharunt.png|thumb|250px|The Loyal Three alongside their [[Legendary group|leader]], {{p|Pecharunt}}]]<br />
{{main|Loyal Three}}<br />
The Loyal Three was first introduced in [[The Teal Mask]], the first [[DLC]] package for [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]]. They were believed to have protected [[Kitakami]] from {{p|Ogerpon}}, whose appearance frightened the villagers. In doing so, they were worshiped as heroes. After the truth about them was revealed, [[Carmine]] renamed them the '''Lousy Three''' or '''"Loyal" Three'''.<br />
<br />
In truth, the Loyal Three were among many ruffians who traveled to Kitakami after hearing of Ogerpon and its partner's masks. They snuck into the cave they settled in and stole the Wellspring, Hearthflame, and Cornerstone Masks, leaving only the Teal Mask behind. Upon returning to its cave, an enraged Ogerpon donned the mask and went out to the village, cudgel in hand, to search for its friend. Upon meeting the Loyal Three, gloating over their stolen masks, Ogerpon attacked and defeated them, before leaving. The villagers, misunderstanding the situation, believed that the Loyal Three were protecting the village, creating a shrine and festival to celebrate their perceived heroism. <br />
<br />
The player encounters the trio after they are revived, following [[Kieran]] punching the shrine in a rage. Later on, the player faces off against each member alongside [[Carmine]] as [[Titan Pokémon]]. When they are defeated, each member drops a stolen mask, allowing Ogerpon to recover it. They can be caught after clearing The Teal Mask storyline.<br />
<br />

[[File:Ogerpon and defeated Loyal Three.png|thumb|left|230px|Teal Mask {{p|Ogerpon}} after slaying the [[Loyal Three]]]]<br />
{{p|Ogerpon}} is a Legendary Pokémon first introduced in [[The Teal Mask]]. It has four forms, Teal Mask, Wellspring Mask, Hearthflame Mask, and Cornerstone Mask, each form possessing a unique {{Tera}}stallized state. It is said to have terrorized the land of Kitakami before being stopped by the [[Loyal Three]], {{p|Okidogi}}, {{p|Munkidori}} and {{p|Fezandipiti}}. However, it was later revealed to be only a misunderstanding, as it defeated the trio for stealing three of its mask and hurting its human companion, however, the villagers watching it, assumed it had come to attack the village, now seeing it as a terrible ogre, meant to be avoided. Only one knew the true story though, that being the mask maker who made Ogerpon's masks to begin with, telling the real story to his descendants ever since.<br />
<br />
[[Florian]]/[[Juliana]] and [[Carmine]] encounters Ogerpon during the events during Kitakami's Festival of Masks, it loses its Teal Mask during the Festival and as the duo fixes it up, the Loyal Three are somehow revived and go to take revenge on Ogerpon with the three masks they had still. Eventually the three are beaten and Ogerpon's remaining masks are retrieved, as Ogerpon's true identity was revealed up by [[Kieran]], allowing the villagers to apologize for their mistakes and declare it as the true hero of [[Kitakami]] instead of the Loyal Three. Florian/Juliana can then capture it at the [[Dreaded Den]] after fighting Kieran who couldn't just let them have it instead of him.<br />

<br />
====Terapagos ====<br />
[[File:The Indigo Disk Key Art 2.png |thumb|250px|Terastal Form {{p|Terapagos}} in [[Area Zero Underdepths]]]]<br />
{{p|Terapagos}} is a Legendary Pokémon first introduced in [[The Indigo Disk]]. It is the origin of the [[Terastal phenomenon]] and was seen as only fiction by many in the Scarlet Book{{sup/9|S}}/Violet Book{{sup/9|V}}, the only ones knowing about its existence being [[Heath]] and [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}}. Terapagos has three {{fd|Terapagos|forms}}: Normal Form, Terastal Form, and Stellar Form. Around two million years ago, Terapagos lived on the surface of [[Paldea]] during ancient times until seismic shifts caused it to fall underground. There it remained asleep for many years as the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] is formed along with [[Area Zero]] and [[Area Zero Underdepths]].<br />
<br />
200 years ago, Terapagos was firstly discovered and then named by a man named [[Heath]], a member of the Area Zero Expedition survey team, a group sponsored by one of the past directors of the [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}, the team entered the great crater and found the first ever Paradox Pokémon in Area Zero in same area along with Terapagos. These were a {{p|Great Tusk}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Iron Treads}}{{sup/9|V}}, that mortally wounded one of the team's members, and a {{p|Koraidon|Winged King}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon|Iron Serpent}}{{sup/9|V}} that became the cover of Heath's [[Scarlet Book]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Violet Book]]{{sup/9|V}}. At some point, Heath ended up straying from the rest of the team and somehow got into the Area Zero Underdepths, also meeting Terapagos for the very first time, while it was in its Stellar Form.<br />
<br />
After the player manages to beat all of the [[BB League]]'s [[Elite Four]] members and its [[Champion]], [[Kieran]], they are, along with Kieran, [[Carmine]] and [[Drayton]] called to Briar's classroom for something. There, Briar, [[Geeta]] and [[Rika]] explain explains the dangers of the depths of Area Zero, requesting the students to follow Briar there to uncover its mysteries and most importantly, so Briar can find Terapagos and prove that her ancestor, Heath, was not a liar. Drayton denies the request but the rest agreed to go, descending together with the [[Indigo Disk]], which allows the group to access the Area Zero Underdepths, where they start to walk deeper and deeper into the caverns, eventually finding Terapagos in its slumbering state. Kieran, frustrated at his inability to overcome the player, frees Terapagos from its resting place, causing it to reawaken. It attempts to walk towards the player, right before being caught by Kieran in a [[Master Ball]]. Determined to win, Kieran sends out Terapagos to battle the player. After losing the battle once again, Kieran is told by Briar to Terastallize Terapagos into its Stellar Form. However, this causes Terapagos to not only lose control but destroy the Master Ball as well. The player along with [[Carmine]] and later Kieran, proceeds to battle Terapagos until it is defeated. The player then proceeded to capture it.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* There have been Legendary Pokémon of every type except {{t|Bug}} type (excluding Silvally holding a [[Bug Memory]]).<br />
*Every Special and Mythical Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon)|Alola Pokédex]] is marked by a special golden background in its [[Pokédex]] page instead of a regular blue one; other Legendary Pokémon and Ultra Beasts are marked by a special green one.<br />
*{{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Kubfu}}, {{p|Urshifu}}, and {{p|Terapagos}} are the only Legendary Pokémon that can be either gender.<br />
**Heatran and Terapagos have an equal chance of being either gender, while Kubfu and Urshifu both have a 7:1 chance of being male.<br />
***While Terapagos is coded to have an equal chance of being either gender, the Terapagos caught in [[The Indigo Disk]] will always be male.<br />
*In an interview promoting the launch of {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[Junichi Masuda]] stated that Legendary Pokémon are the most difficult to design names for because Game Freak strives to make sure that the names of Legendary Pokémon are universal across the different translations, so extra work must be put into their names to make sure that they work universally in all languages.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20101228065540/http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/interview/irbj/sp/index5.html 女子大生が訊く『ポケットモンスターブラック・ホワイト』] (archive)</ref> This is consistent with the relatively small number of Legendary Pokémon that have had their names changed significantly outside of Japan (currently 21: the [[legendary birds]], the [[lake guardians]], the [[Forces of Nature]], {{p|Type: Null}}, {{p|Silvally}}, the [[guardian deities]], {{p|Eternatus}}, {{p|Kubfu}}, {{p|Urshifu}}, {{p|Glastrier}}, {{p|Spectrier}}, {{p|Calyrex}}, and—in [[Pokémon in Greater China|Chinese]] only—the [[Mew duo]]).<br />
*Each member of the [[Legendary beasts]] and the [[Tao trio]] has its own remix of each trio's designated battle theme:<br />
**In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Suicune's theme uses bells, Entei's theme uses an electric guitar, and Raikou's theme is synthesized.<br />
**Reshiram's theme employs a burning fire effect, Zekrom's theme employs a crackling thunder effect, and normal Kyurem's theme features an extra slapped bass part playing in the background.<br />
*The [[Generation I]] games and their later remakes are the only [[core series]] games where:<br />
**The main plot does not involve any Legendary Pokémon.<br />
*Prior to [[Generation VI]], the core series games which serve as region debuts did not have any Legendary Pokémon from previous generations available without trades, transfers, or events.<br />
**From [[Generation III]] onwards, all upper versions, sequels, and remakes in the core series have Legendary Pokémon from multiple generations available without trades, transfers, or events.<br />
* The legendary birds are the Legendary Pokémon that have been available in the wild in the greatest number of core series games, each being able to be caught in twenty core series games ([[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue]], {{v2|Yellow}}, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, LeafGreen]], {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, SoulSilver]], [[Pokémon X and Y|X, Y]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon]], {{LGPE|Let's Go, Pikachu!, Let's Go, Eevee!}}, [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Sword, Shield]], [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Shining Pearl,]] [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Scarlet, and Violet]]).<br />
*Every Legendary Pokémon has slow [[List of Pokémon by experience type|leveling rate]].<br />
* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Sky]], the [[Adventure Log]] lists recruiting Unown as an accomplishment. The Adventure Log otherwise only lists Mythical and Legendary Pokémon recruits, with the exception of {{p|Rotom}}.<br />
*Rotom happens to be the only non-Legendary Pokémon to have the battle music of a Legendary Pokémon during at least one of its encounters, this encounter being in the [[Old Chateau]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl}}, {{v2|Platinum}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl}}.<br />
** In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky, Rotom has only one exclusive item that is found behind a locked door in a specific dungeon. It and {{p|Spiritomb}} are the only Pokémon that are neither Legendary nor Mythical that do this.<br />
*So far, there is at least one Legendary Pokémon directly or indirectly related to each "battle gimmick" introduced in their respective regions:<br />
**The [[Aura trio]] (specifically Xerneas and Yveltal) are theorized to be indirectly responsible for creating [[Mega Evolution]] in the [[Kalos]] region, while {{p|Rayquaza}} is believed to be responsible for Mega Evolution occurring in the [[Hoenn]] region.<br />
**The [[Light trio]] and [[Guardian deities]] are directly related to [[Z-Move]]s.<br />
**Eternatus is directly responsible for [[Dynamax]] and [[Gigantamax]].<br />
**Terapagos is directly responsible for the [[Terastal phenomenon]].<br />

[[File:Pokémon Fossil Museum.jpg|thumb|300px|Fossil Pokémon and their real life inspirations as displayed by the real-world [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/index_en.html|Official Pokémon Fossil Museum]]]<br />
A '''Fossil''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|化石|カセキ}}''' ''Fossil'') is a trace or piece of an organism from the past, such as a skeleton, shell, or leaf, preserved in the earth.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon world]], Fossils of prehistoric Pokémon are [[item]]s which can be revived into living Pokémon using techniques developed by the [[Devon Corporation]] and a research laboratory on [[Cinnabar Island]]. The two institutions purportedly developed their techniques independently of each other at around the same time. There are also other scientists around the Pokémon world who can revive Fossils using these techniques.<br />
<br />
Pokémon revived from Fossils are commonly called '''Fossil Pokémon'''.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
Scientists who can revive Fossils can be found in every [[core series]] game except the [[Generation II]] games and {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet and Violet}}.<br />

Prior to Generation IV, Fossils were Key Items. However, from Generation IV and on, they are normal items, meaning that they can be traded freely between games. The table below summarizes the natural availability of the Fossils in the core series games.<br />

In the games, relatively few [[Pokémon Trainer]]s possess Pokémon revived from Fossils, since they are considered rare and difficult to obtain.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation I]]===<br />
In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the first three Fossils were introduced. They have also appeared in most of the later games. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{kanto color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{kanto color}}"<br />

|-<br />

| style="background:#{{water color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{water color dark}}|Dome Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{flying color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{flying color dark}}|Old Amber|Old Amber}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
The Helix and Dome Fossils are chosen near the end of the second basement passage in [[Mt. Moon]], being guarded by a Super Nerd, but the player may only choose one to keep. The other one that the Super Nerd takes will be revived and put on display in the [[Fuchsia City]] zoo in front of the [[Safari Zone]]. The Old Amber is located in the secret part of the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], which can only be accessed with [[HM01]] Cut. In the regularly accessible portion of the museum are complete fossilized skeleton displays of {{p|Kabutops}} and Aerodactyl.<br />
<br />
A scientist in the Pokémon Lab on [[Cinnabar Island]] can revive the Fossils. The resulting Pokémon are level 30. <br />
<br />
During this generation, all Fossils are Key Items, and cannot be traded to other games to be revived.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]] is the first Trainer to be seen with a Fossil Pokémon, possessing an Aerodactyl due to its draconic appearance.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation II]]===<br />
No new Fossils were introduced in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and the three Fossils from Generation I have been removed from the games' data. In-game, the player simply doesn't happen to find any Fossil during their adventure, while the previously introduced Cinnabar Lab has been destroyed.<br />
<br />
However, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Kabuto}}, and {{p|Aerodactyl}} are prominently featured in the puzzles located at [[Ruins of Alph]]. Of the three, only Aerodactyl is actually obtainable in the games via an in-game [[trade]] with an NPC in Kanto (for {{p|Chansey}}). Omanyte and Kabuto must be traded from Generation I.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]], who is now the [[Pokémon Champion]], continues to have an Aerodactyl on his team. In addition, [[Brock]], being a Fossil enthusiast, has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} in this generation's games, as well as the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Stadium games]] in [[Gym Leader Castle]]. His fondness of Fossils is referenced again in the next generation of games when a man in [[Mt. Moon]] mentions that Brock helps excavate Fossils at the location, which implies that he excavated Omastar and Kabutops's Fossils himself.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation III]]===<br />
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, two new Fossils were introduced. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{hoenn color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{hoenn color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Root Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|345|Lileep}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Claw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|347|Anorith}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{grass color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{grass color dark}}|Root Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{bug color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{bug color dark}}|Claw Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
In Ruby and Sapphire, the player can choose one of either the Root or Claw Fossils at {{rt|111|Hoenn}}, and upon choosing, the other will sink away into the sand. In Emerald, however, while the player can only choose one initially at the [[Mirage Tower]], they can retrieve the other later at the end of the [[Desert Underpass]]. In all three versions, Fossils may be revived by a scientist in the [[Devon Corporation]] building in [[Rustboro City]] and the newly resurrected Pokémon are obtained at level 20.<br />
<br />
In the {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Generation I remakes|s}}, the player can obtain the same Fossils as in the original versions: a required choice of the [[Helix Fossil|Helix]] or the [[Dome Fossil]] after fighting a Super Nerd in the second basement of [[Mt. Moon]], and the [[Old Amber]] from a scientist in the secret area of the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. Likewise, a Scientist on [[Cinnabar Island]] can still revive the fossils; however, the newly resurrected Pokémon are this time obtained at level 5. <br />
<br />
In {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, the [[Champion]] [[Steven Stone]] has two Fossil Pokémon, {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}}. In {{v2|Emerald}}, over the course of rematches, [[Roxanne]] will eventually gain a {{p|Kabutops}}, an {{p|Omastar}}, and an {{p|Aerodactyl}} for her team. In this game, Steven is no longer the Champion, but he may be encountered at [[Meteor Falls]] with a higher level variation on his original team that still includes his Fossil Pokémon partners. In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, Lance continues to have Aerodactyl on his team, the resurrected form of the fossil that wasn't chosen at Mt. Moon can still be viewed at the zoo in [[Fuchsia City]], and complete fossilized skeletons of Kabutops and Aerodactyl are still on display at the Pewter Museum of Science. <br />
<br />
In Generation III, all Fossils are Key Items, and cannot be traded to other games to be revived.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IV]]===<br />
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, two new Fossils were again introduced:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{sinnoh color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{sinnoh color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Skull Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|408|Cranidos}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Armor Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|410|Shieldon}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Skull Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{steel color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{steel color dark}}|Armor Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be turned into level 20 Pokémon at the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]].<br />
<br />
In Diamond and Pearl, for the first time in the series, the Fossils the player is able to receive are dependent on the version played: Skull Fossils are available in Diamond only and Armor Fossils in Pearl only. In Platinum, whichever Fossil a player digs up will depend on whether the Trainer ID is even or odd. If the Trainer ID is even, the player will dig up Armor Fossils only, and if the Trainer ID is odd, the player will dig up Skull Fossils only.<br />
<br />
In [[Sinnoh]], when players travel [[the Underground|underground]], they can find most of the Fossils by digging, along with several other rare items, potentially. After getting the [[National Pokédex]], they can also find the five Fossils from the previous three generations. However, the chances of finding most of the previous generation Fossils, much like with several other items, follows a similar formula to the Sinnoh Fossils. This makes it easier to find certain Fossils which are found uncommonly, while the others become more difficult in the opposite version which instead are found very rarely. For example, the Helix and Claw Fossils have an easier chance to be found if the Skull Fossil is available, or the Dome and Root Fossil if the Armor Fossil is available. The Old Amber is the only Fossil whose ratio remains unchanged regardless of version as it will always be found rarely.<br />
<br />
In [[Johto]]'s [[Generation IV]] games, the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Helix Fossil|Helix]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils as well as the [[Old Amber]] can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s outside [[Ruins of Alph]]. [[Root Fossil|Root]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Claw Fossil|Claw]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the [[Cliff Cave]] after entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Fossils found in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} can be revived as level 20 Pokémon at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. The Skull and Armor Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon revived from them, must be transferred from Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum.<br />
<br />
Starting in this generation, Fossils are considered to be normal items. As such, they can be held by a Pokémon and traded to another game.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]] has a Cranidos, while his father, [[Byron]], has a {{p|Bastiodon}}. {{p|Rampardos}} and Shieldon are also used by two minor Trainers. After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be spotted with other Trainers.<br />
<br />
As in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, [[Brock]] has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} on his team in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and also uses a Rampardos in rematches. [[Lance]] continues to have Aerodactyl on his initial team, but it is not used in rematches. <br />
<br />
===[[Generation V]]===<br />
{{game|Black and White|s}} once again brought a new set of Fossils to the Pokémon world:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{unova color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{unova color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{water color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Cover Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|564|Tirtouga}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Plume Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|566|Archen}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Cover Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{flying color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{flying color dark}}|Plume Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be revived into level 25 Pokémon using a machine in the [[Nacrene City]] Museum.<br />
<br />
In Pokémon Black and White, one of these two Fossils will be given away by a person in [[Relic Castle]], similar to how the Helix and Dome Fossils are originally obtained in the Kanto-based games.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|sequels]] to these games, the Cover and Plume Fossils are instead given away by former Gym Leader [[Lenora]] at the Nacrene City Museum itself, which is only accessible after defeating [[Iris]] and entering the Hall of Fame. <br />
<br />
After defeating [[Ghetsis]]{{sup/5|BW}} or [[Iris]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}, Fossils that were introduced in previous generations will be given out by a {{tc|Worker}} in [[Twist Mountain]], with one being given out per day. In addition, after defeating Iris and achieving Rank 15 for [[Join Avenue]], the Antique Shop on Join Avenue has a chance of selling a mystery box that could contain any fossil, whether introduced in Generation V or earlier. And as with Generation IV, Fossils are regular items and may be held by Pokémon and traded to other games.<br />
<br />
In [[Chargestone Cave]], a couple of {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s battle with a {{p|Tirtouga}} and an {{p|Archen}} in both sets of games. The potential Pokémon used by opponents on the [[Battle Subway]] are inclusive of both Fossil Pokémon and their evolutions, and {{tc|Subway Boss}} [[Emmet]] uses {{p|Archeops}} in one of his rematch battles. <br />
<br />
In Black and White, both {{p|Carracosta}} and Archeops are used by [[N]] in the final battle against him within [[N's Castle|his castle]]. <br />
<br />
In Black 2 and White 2, two {{tc|Backpacker}}s on {{rt|1|Unova}} also use teams entirely made out of Fossil Pokémon, and new Gym Leader [[Marlon]] uses {{p|Carracosta}} in all battles against him. During [[Pokémon World Tournament]] competitions, many contenders use teams that may include of Fossil Pokémon: {{ga|Blue}} has {{p|Aerodactyl}}; [[Brock]] has {{p|Omastar}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, and Aerodactyl; [[Erika]] has {{p|Cradily}}; [[Falkner]] has Aerodactyl; [[Bugsy]] has {{p|Armaldo}}; [[Roxanne]] has Cradily, Armaldo, and Carracosta; [[Steven Stone|Steven]] has Cradily, Armaldo, and Archeops; [[Roark]] has {{p|Rampardos}} and Archeops; Byron has {{p|Bastiodon}}; [[Skyla]] has Archeops; [[Marlon]] has Carracosta; Ace Trainer X has Archeops; and Ace Trainer Makina has Tirtouga. In the Rental Tournaments, all four Generation V fossil Pokémon are available to rent by both the player and all other competing trainers. <br />
<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VI]]===<br />
Two Fossil Pokémon were introduced for {{g|X and Y}}.<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{kalos color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{kalos color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Jaw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|696|Tyrunt}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Sail Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|698|Amaura}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{dragon color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{dragon color dark}}|Jaw Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{ice color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{ice color dark}}|Sail Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
One of the two Fossils is given to the player in [[Glittering Cave]] and can be restored at the research facility in [[Ambrette Town]]. The resulting Pokémon are level 20. The [[Old Amber]] can also be collected after this by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the back of Glittering Cave.<br />
<br />
Gym Leader [[Grant]] uses {{p|Tyrunt}} and {{p|Amaura}} and their evolved forms in subsequent rematches. Champion [[Diantha]] also uses {{p|Tyrantrum}} and {{p|Aurorus}}.<br />
<br />
After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], the player can return to Glittering Cave and smash rocks to find the Skull, Armor, Plume, and Cover Fossils, regardless of version, as well as Root and Claw Fossils{{sup/6|X}} or Dome and Helix Fossils{{sup/6|Y}}. <br />
<br />
In Hoenn's Generation VI games, the Root and Claw Fossil are collected and restored the same way as the original Ruby and Sapphire games. Restoring Fossils can be done at the second floor of the [[Devon Corporation]]. After battling {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}}, a number of other Fossils can be collected by smashing [[breakable rock]]s at the [[Mirage spot]]s. While the Old Amber can be found regardless of version, the Dome, Armor, and Plume Fossils are exclusive to Omega Ruby and the Helix, Skull, and Cover Fossils are exclusive to Alpha Sapphire. The Jaw and Sail Fossils are absent from both games, but may be transferred from X and Y - for as with Generations IV and V, Fossils are regular items and may be held by Pokémon and traded to other games.<br />
<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VII]]===<br />
Generation VII introduces no new Fossils, but the player may obtain most of the previous Fossils depending on the game. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], only the Fossils from Sinnoh and Unova are available. Their location is at [[Olivia]]'s jewelry shop in [[Konikoni City]], where the player can buy a [[Skull Fossil]] and a [[Cover Fossil]] in Pokémon Sun or an [[Armor Fossil]] and a [[Plume Fossil]] in Pokémon Moon. <br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], this has been expanded to include more of the previous Fossils which were absent from the original games. The [[Helix Fossil|Helix]], [[Claw Fossil|Claw]], and [[Jaw Fossil|Jaw]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Skull and Cover Fossils in Ultra Sun, and the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]], [[Root Fossil|Root]], and [[Sail Fossil|Sail]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Armor and Plume Fossils in Ultra Moon. Additionally, unlike the original games, any of these fossils can now also be obtained from Isle Aphun at [[Poké Pelago]] regardless of version. This is done from conducting a Rare Treasure-Hunting expedition (or an Interesting Item-Hunting expedition once the island has reached Development Level 3), where any of these Fossils have a very rare chance of being obtained. <br />
<br />
The Fossils can be revived at the Fossil Restoration Center on {{rt|8|Alola}}. The newly revived Pokémon come at level 15.<br />
<br />
Unlike the other Fossils, the [[Old Amber]] is unobtainable in [[Alola]]. Instead, an {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be obtained at [[Seafolk Village]] as a [[gift Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
Several minor Trainers use some of these Fossil Pokémon or their evolved forms as part of their teams. In addition for Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon only, [[Olivia]] uses both {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Anorith}} during her grand trial. Later, when the player faces Olivia at the {{al|Pokémon League}}, they have evolved into {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}} respectively as part of her upgraded team. At the [[Battle Tree]], {{tc|Battle Legend}} {{ga|Blue}} uses Aerodactyl, much as he had in for the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], all three Kanto Fossils are obtainable in the same locations as they were in Generations I and III. On the second basement of [[Mt. Moon]], the player must still make a choice of either the [[Helix Fossil|Helix]] or [[Dome Fossil]] to proceed with the main story, and the [[Old Amber]] may still be obtained from a scientist in the restricted annex at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]] after their first partner Pokémon has learned the Secret Technique [[Chop Down]]. All three fossils may be revived at the lab on [[Cinnabar Island]], but this time the resulting Pokémon are obtained at level 44. <br />
<br />
Additional instances of the Kanto fossils may be obtained in these versions; a first for the [[Generation I]] [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|games]] [[Pokémon Yellow Version|and]] [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|their]] [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|remakes]]. All three fossils may be found on the second floor of [[Cerulean Cave]], where random rare items spawn occasionally.<br />
<br />
During rematches, [[Brock]] adds an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} to his team in a reflection of their usages in [[Generation II]], {{2v2|Heart Gold|Soul Silver}}, and Black 2 and White 2. [[Lance]] still uses an Aerodactyl on both his teams, as does Blue in his rematch team in a reflection of its usage in his teams in Black 2 and White 2, Sun and Moon, and Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Either {{p|Omanyte}} or {{p|Kabuto}} may still be seen at the Zoo in [[Fuchsia City]], depending on which fossil was not chosen in Mt. Moon, and the fossilized skeletons of Aerodactyl and Kabutops are still on display in the Pewter Museum's normally accessible floors. <br />
<br />
===[[Generation VIII]]===<br />
Generation VIII introduced four new Fossils, the most of any generation. Reviving Fossils in {{g|Sword and Shield}} is a much different process than it has been in the past generations. Two completely different Fossils must be combined, by [[Cara Liss]] on {{rt|6|Galar}}, to form a chimeric Fossil Pokémon. These Pokémon all start at [[level]] 10, their [[Gender unknown|genders are unknown]], and [[No Eggs Discovered (Egg Group)|cannot breed]]. These are also the only Fossil Pokémon that are not {{type|Rock}}.<br />

<br />
Most previous Fossil Pokémon can be encountered in the {{pkmn2|wild}} in the [[Crown Tundra]], often as [[wanderer]]s, with possible exceptions being {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Omastar}} (exclusive to Sword), {{p|Kabuto}} and {{p|Kabutops}} (exclusive to Shield), and [[Generation IV]] Fossil Pokémon (unavailable in both versions). While no attention is brought to the reason for their presence as wild Pokémon in modern times, with most of their [[Pokédex]] entries in Sword and Shield either mentioning they were revived from Fossils or glossing over their status as Fossil Pokémon entirely, {{p|Omanyte}}'s entry in Pokémon Sword specifically mentions specimens that either escaped or were [[Released Pokémon|released]] after their revival. The only other clearly stated case is {{p|Kabuto}}, whose Pokédex entries have been mentioning its status as a {{wp|living fossil}} since [[Generation II]]. Data for their respective Fossils still exists in the games, but they cannot be obtained.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, it is for the most part the same as {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, with only the Fossils from the first four generations available, with Skull Fossils being exclusive to Brilliant Diamond and Armor Fossils being exclusive to Shining Pearl. They can be dug up in the Underground's replacement, the [[Grand Underground]]. Unlike the originals, the Fossils from the first three Generations are available earlier; the requirement for them to appear in the Grand Underground is to defeat or capture {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/8|SP}} on the [[Spear Pillar]], rather than obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]. Like in the originals, [[Roark]] uses a {{p|Cranidos}} and his father [[Byron]] uses a {{p|Bastiodon}}, both as their highest-leveled Pokémon. {{p|Rampardos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} are used by a few Trainers, and the former evolves from Roark's Cranidos in the [[rematch]] with him, which can be done once per day after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtaining the National Pokédex. In said rematch, Roark additionally uses an {{p|Aerodactyl}} and an {{p|Armaldo}}, two other Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Fossils do not exist at all, in the game's coding or otherwise. Rather, only {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} can be obtained, and they can be found as rare spawns in [[space-time distortion]]s in the [[Coronet Highlands]].<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IX]]===<br />
There are no new Fossils to acquire in {{2v2|Scarlet|Violet}}, and thus no new Fossil Pokémon, and similar to in Generation II there is no way to obtain old Fossils and the Pokemon therein, rendering all previous Fossil Pokémon unavailable.<br />

==In spin-off games==<br />
===Pokémon Quest===<br />
[[File:Quest Fossil.png|thumb|100px|A Fossil in Pokémon Quest]]<br />
A Fossil is an ingredient that can be used in {{OBP|cooking|Quest}} to attract wild Pokémon in [[Pokémon Quest]].<br />
<br />
====Description====<br />
{{movedesc|items}}<br />
{{movedescentry|'''{{color2|{{orange color dark}}|Pokémon Quest|Quest}}'''|Hard and small ingredients.}}<br />
|}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
====Acquisition====<br />
Fossil is a possible ingredient that can be obtained by completing [[Tumblecube Island|expeditions]]. It can also be obtained randomly by recycling [[Power Stone]]s.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
===Main series===<br />
[[File:Dome Fossil anime.png|thumb|250px|Dome Fossil in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]<br />
[[File:Sunkern leaf fossil.png|thumb|250px|A fossilized {{p|Sunkern}} leaf in the anime]]<br />
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, some Fossil Pokémon are in fact, not extinct, but have simply been hibernating underground for millions of years, as seen in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', ''[[EP089|Shell Shock!]]'', and ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]''. However {{Gary}} has used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[HS15|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl!]]''. Unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}, where Fossils of ancient Pokémon are resurrected into the skeletons of the prehistoric using a machine that recreates the missing organs that had decomposed away from the genes extracted in the remains, this Aerodactyl was in fact completely revived from a Fossil that was fully preserved inside of an Old Amber for millions of years and thus still had the memories of its past life.<br />
<br />
[[Butler]] tried to create a {{p|Groudon}} for [[Team Magma]] in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'' from a fossilized remnant, but the experiment failed and Butler left Team Magma. [[Professor Proctor]] used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[AG102|Where's Armaldo?]]''.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]], as he does in the {{pkmn|games}}, has a Cranidos which evolves into a {{TP|Roark|Rampardos}}. Roark and his team retrieve Fossils from the [[Oreburgh Mine]] and give them to the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]]. The museum's director [[Dr. Kenzo]] uses the Fossils for their Fossil revitalization program. Roark's Pokémon, as well as several other Fossil Pokémon revived by the Fossil Restorer Machine, appear in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]'', and ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]''. [[Byron]], Roark's father, also has quite a collection in [[Canalave Gym|his Gym]]. This includes the Fossil Pokémon {{p|Kabuto}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Omastar}}, {{p|Cradily}}, and {{p|Armaldo}}, as well as a giant Claw Fossil. He also kept a {{p|Sunkern}} leaf Fossil that Roark found when he was a child.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene City Museum!]]'', a {{p|Kabuto}} Fossil was first seen chasing [[Hawes]], as he claimed it to be doing, but was later seen safely placed in a display case. Hawes later explained what it was to the trio. It was later revealed that the {{p|Yamask}} in the Nacrene City Museum was using its move {{m|Psychic}} to make the Dome Fossil float and chase after Hawes after he put its mask in a display case, thinking that it was a replica Yamask mask given to him as a gift from the company that made a {{p|Cofagrigus}} replica after purchasing it from them for the museum.<br />
<br />
[[Lenora]] gave a Plume Fossil to [[Professor Juniper]] and [[Fennel]] prior to ''[[BW036|Archeops In The Modern World!]]''. They successfully resurrected a female {{p|Archen}} from the Fossil using {{p|Musharna}}'s dream energy. With the help of {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Tranquill}}, Archen learned how to fly and then evolved into {{p|Archeops}}.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW075|A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1]]'', {{TRT}} stole a Cover Fossil from [[Ferris]]. [[Dr. Zager]] revived it into a {{p|Tirtouga}} as part of a plot to open a Time Gate beneath [[Twist Mountain]], but the Tirtouga subsequently escaped, evolved into {{p|Carracosta}} and returned to the past through the Time Gate in [[BW076|the next episode]].<br />
<br />
{{an|Kiawe}} found two Fossils in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'', during the [[Poké Ride|Stoutland Search]] treasure hunt set up for Ash and his classmates by [[Olivia]]. On the first round, he found a Skull Fossil, and on the second one, he found a Plume Fossil.<br />
<br />
[[Goh]] found an Old Amber in ''[[JN038|Restore and Renew!]]'' during a Fossil excavation. It was later revived into an {{TP|Goh|Aerodactyl}} and caught by him.<br />
<br />
In ''[[JN050|A Pinch of This, a Pinch of That!]]'', Ash, Goh, and [[Chloe]] traveled to [[Galar]] to dig up Fossils in the [[Wild Area]]. With the help of [[Cara Liss]] and [[Bray Zenn]], they found four Fossils and revived them into a {{AP|Dracovish}} and an {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Arctozolt}}, which Ash and Goh, respectively, later caught.<br />
<br />
===Pokémon Origins===<br />
[[File:Super Nerd PO.png|thumb|250px|Dome and Helix Fossils in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]<br />
The Dome and Helix Fossils were seen briefly in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', being hogged by a {{tc|Super Nerd}} whom {{OBP|Red|Origins}} encountered on [[Mt. Moon]].<br />
<br />
In ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]'', Red was seen using a {{p|Kabutops}} in his battle against [[Giovanni]], presumably revived from a Dome Fossil. Since Red is mentioned to have caught all 150 [[Generation I]] Pokémon (excluding {{p|Mew}}) by the time of ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', it means that he has also obtained the other Kanto Fossil Pokémon, presumably also revived from Fossils. As {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} was mentioned to have collected 148 Pokémon, it is likely that he had also collected all Kanto Fossil Pokémon.<br />

===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, Lance and Brock both have Fossil Pokémon, just as in the games. Misty also temporarily has an {{p|Omanyte}}, but she gives this to {{adv|Yellow}}. In addition, {{adv|Red}} uses [[Blaine]]'s laboratory to revive an [[Aero]]dactyl. In [[Hoenn]], {{adv|Ruby}} fights a revived {{p|Lileep}} and an {{p|Anorith}} at [[Professor Cozmo]]'s laboratory in [[Fallarbor Town]]. In [[Sinnoh]], [[Roark]] has a {{p|Cranidos}} like in the games, and [[Byron|his father]] a [[Don|Shieldon]], which he later gives to {{adv|Diamond}}. In [[Unova]], [[N]] had an {{p|Archeops}}, which he released, and {{adv|Black}} has a [[Costa|Carracosta]], which was owned by [[Marshal]] as a {{p|Tirtouga}}. {{adv|Blake}} also has a {{p|Kabutops}}. In [[Kalos]], [[Grant]] has an {{p|Aurorus}} and a {{p|Tyrantrum}}. In [[Galar]], [[Marvin]] obtained a {{p|Dracovish}} after saving it from several [[Macro Cosmos]] employees.<br />

==In the TCG==<br />
[[File:UnidentifiedFossilUltraPrism134.jpg|thumb|250px|The {{TCG ID|Ultra Prism|Unidentified Fossil|134}} from the Sun & Moon Series]]<br />
All Fossils have appeared in the TCG at one point or another, usually being released in the same expansion as the Pokémon which are revived from them, and being released as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s. Initially, only the {{TCG|Mysterious Fossil}} card existed, which could be evolved into any of the three Generation I Fossil Pokémon; however, its use was eventually discontinued in favor of individual {{TCG|Dome Fossil}}, {{TCG|Helix Fossil}}, and {{TCG|Old Amber}} cards to match the {{TCG|Claw Fossil|Claw}}, {{TCG|Root Fossil|Root}}, {{TCG|Skull Fossil|Skull}}, {{TCG|Armor Fossil|Armor}}, {{TCG|Cover Fossil|Cover}}, {{TCG|Plume Fossil|Plume}}, {{TCG|Jaw Fossil|Jaw}}, and {{TCG|Sail Fossil|Sail}} Fossil cards. {{TCG|Ultra Prism}} brought the return of a shared Trainer card which could evolve into any Fossil Pokémon released during the Sun & Moon Series, this time known as {{TCG|Unidentified Fossil}}.<br />
<br />
In addition, there are some other Fossil (related) cards, like {{TCG|Buried Fossil}} from {{TCG|Skyridge}} (the only non-Trainer Fossil cards, which is a {{TCG|Colorless}} {{e|Colorless}} type Pokémon instead); {{TCG|Fossil Egg}} from {{TCG|Neo Discovery}}; and {{TCG|Holon Fossil}} from {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}.<br />
<br />
The following is a list of Fossil items unique to the Trading Card Game, with cards played as {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} listed first. For listings of cards corresponding to specific game Fossils, see their individual item pages.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* The [[Generation I]] Fossil Pokémon are the only {{type|Rock}} Pokémon of that generation that are not part {{type|Ground}}.<br />
* {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Rampardos}} are the only Fossil Pokémon that are pure-Rock type.<br />
* {{p|Tirtouga}} and {{p|Carracosta}} are the only Fossil Pokémon to have Rock as their secondary type.<br />
* {{p|Archen}} and {{p|Archeops}} are the only Fossil Pokémon without Hidden Abilities.<br />
* {{p|Aerodactyl}} is the only Fossil Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]].<br />
* [[Generation VIII]] is the only generation to have Fossil Pokémon that are not Rock types, are gender unknown, and are incapable of {{pkmn|breeding}}.<br />
* The Fossilized Drake and Fossilized Fish appear to have an inventory sprite mix up, as the Fossilized Fish offers the "-vish" head for {{p|Arctovish}} and {{p|Dracovish}}, but the item itself looks more like the Draco- body, with the same being said for the Fossilized Drake looking like the "-vish" head but offers instead the "Draco-" body for Dracovish and {{p|Dracozolt}}.<br />
* [[Generation III]] also introduces {{p|Relicanth}}, a ancient Pokémon which is partially Rock-type which is often considered a {{wp|living fossil}}, as it has survived extinction for a hundred million years. Since [[Generation II]], various Pokédex entries for {{p|Kabuto}} have suggested that it too may be a living fossil. However, since Relicanth is only ever able to be caught in the wild and never revived from a fossil, it is not included in the Fossil Pokémon group.<br />
* In {{g|Colosseum}}'s Story Mode, various characters use {{p|Lileep}}, {{p|Anorith}}, {{p|Cradily}}, and Armaldo}}, in contrast to the scarcity of fossil Pokémon usage in the core series games. The most famous of these users are [[Miror B.]] and [[Gonzap]], each of whom at some point has an Armaldo on his team. However, in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], Lileep, Anorith, Cradily, and Armaldo only appear once, although an {{p|Aerodactyl}} also appears on [[Greevil]]'s team once his [[Shadow Pokémon]] have been Snagged.<br />
* While it cannot be revived via Fossil, the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Genesect}} is known to have been created by [[Team Plasma]] by reviving a prehistoric Pokémon and upgrading it by attaching a cannon to its back. <br />
* Similarly, the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}} had a fossilized eyebrow in [[M01|the anime's first movie]] from which its genetic material was used to create {{p|Mewtwo}}. However, in the games, no mention of this fossil is made, and the journal entries in the [[Pokémon Mansion]] on [[Cinnabar Island]] suggest that a living Mew was captured and "gave birth" to the clone Mewtwo. Mew's introduction to the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] in the Japanese version of the {{TCG|Fossil}} Expansion could be considered a reference to this part of the anime. <br />
* Fossil Pokémon are featured in a Japan-only nationwide traveling exhibition, Pokémon Fossil Museum (Japanese: ポケモン化石博物館). Visitors can learn about the real-life prehistoric animals that inspired the designs of Fossil Pokémon and compare between them, and view conceptual artwork depicting the skeletal anatomy of certain Fossil Pokémon, as well as real life replicas of said skeletons. <ref>, Official Pokémon Fossil Museum site [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/index_en.html (English)], [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/ (Japanese)]</ref><br />

[[File:Pokémon Fossil Museum.jpg|thumb|300px|Fossil Pokémon and their real life inspirations as displayed by the real-world [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/index_en.html|Official Pokémon Fossil Museum]]]<br />
A '''Fossil''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|化石|カセキ}}''' ''Fossil'') is a trace or piece of an organism from the past, such as a skeleton, shell, or leaf, preserved in the earth.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon world]], Fossils of prehistoric Pokémon are [[item]]s which can be revived into living Pokémon using techniques developed by the [[Devon Corporation]] and a research laboratory on [[Cinnabar Island]]. The two institutions purportedly developed their techniques independently of each other at around the same time. There are also other scientists around the Pokémon world who can revive Fossils using these techniques.<br />
<br />
Pokémon revived from Fossils are commonly called '''Fossil Pokémon'''.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
Scientists who can revive Fossils can be found in every [[core series]] game except the [[Generation II]] games and {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet and Violet}}.<br />

Prior to Generation IV, Fossils were Key Items. However, from Generation IV and on, they are normal items, meaning that they can be traded freely between games. The table below summarizes the natural availability of the Fossils in the core series games.<br />

In the games, relatively few [[Pokémon Trainer]]s possess Pokémon revived from Fossils, since they are considered rare and difficult to obtain.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation I]]===<br />
In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the first three Fossils were introduced. They have also appeared in most of the later games. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />

| style="background:#{{flying color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{flying color dark}}|Old Amber|Old Amber}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
The Helix and Dome Fossils are chosen at the end of [[Mt. Moon]], being guarded by a Super Nerd, but the player may only choose one to keep. The other one that the Super Nerd takes will be revived and put on display in the Safari Zone. The Old Amber is located in the secret part of the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], which can only be accessed with [[HM01]] Cut.<br />
<br />
A scientist in the Pokémon Lab on [[Cinnabar Island]] can revive the Fossils. The resulting Pokémon are level 30. <br />
<br />
During this generation (and their [[Generation III]] {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|remakes|s}}), all Fossils are Key Items, and cannot be traded to other games to be revived.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]] is the first Trainer to be seen with a Fossil Pokémon, possessing an Aerodactyl due to its draconic appearance.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation II]]===<br />
No new Fossils were introduced in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and the three Fossils from Generation I have been removed from the games' data. In-game, the player simply doesn't happen to find any Fossil during their adventure, while the previously introduced Cinnabar Lab has been destroyed.<br />
<br />
However, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Kabuto}}, and {{p|Aerodactyl}} are prominently featured in the puzzles located at [[Ruins of Alph]]. Of the three, only Aerodactyl is actually obtainable in the games via an in-game [[trade]] with an NPC in Kanto (for {{p|Chansey}}). Omanyte and Kabuto must be traded from Generation I.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]], who is now the [[Pokémon Champion]], continues to have an Aerodactyl on his team. In addition, [[Brock]], being a Fossil enthusiast, has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} in this generation's games, as well as the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Stadium games]] in [[Gym Leader Castle]]. His fondness of Fossils is referenced again in the next generation of games when a man in [[Mt. Moon]] mentions that Brock helps excavate Fossils at the location, which implies that he excavated Omastar and Kabutops's Fossils himself.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation III]]===<br />
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, two new Fossils were introduced. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{hoenn color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{hoenn color}}"<br />

<br />
In Ruby and Sapphire, the player can choose one of either the Root or Claw Fossils at {{rt|111|Hoenn}}, and upon choosing, the other will sink away into the sand. In Emerald, however, while the player can only choose one initially at the [[Mirage Tower]], they can retrieve the other later at the end of the [[Desert Underpass]]. In all three versions, Fossils may be revived by a scientist in the [[Devon Corporation]] building in [[Rustboro City]] and the newly resurrected Pokémon are obtained at level 20.<br />
<br />
In the Generation I remakes, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player can obtain the same Fossils as in the original games: a required choice of the [[Helix Fossil|Helix]] or the [[Dome Fossil]] in the 2nd basement of [[Mt. Moon]], and the Old Amber from a scientist in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. As in the original versions, a Scientist on [[Cinnabar Island]] can revive the fossils; however, the newly resurrected Pokémon are this time obtained in these games at level 5. <br />
<br />
[[Steven Stone]], a rock collector whose father is head of the Devon Corporation, has two Fossil Pokémon, {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}}. In {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Roxanne]] will eventually gain a Kabutops, an Omastar, and an Aerodactyl for her team. Also, in FireRed and LeafGreen, Lance continues to have Aerodactyl on his team.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IV]]===<br />
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, two new Fossils were again introduced:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{sinnoh color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{sinnoh color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Skull Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|408|Cranidos}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Armor Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|410|Shieldon}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Skull Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{steel color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{steel color dark}}|Armor Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be turned into level 20 Pokémon at the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]].<br />
<br />
In Diamond and Pearl, for the first time in the series, the Fossils the player is able to receive are dependent on the version played: Skull Fossils are available in Diamond only and Armor Fossils in Pearl only. In Platinum, whichever Fossil a player digs up will depend on whether the Trainer ID is even or odd. If the Trainer ID is even, the player will dig up Armor Fossils only, and if the Trainer ID is odd, the player will dig up Skull Fossils only.<br />
<br />
In [[Sinnoh]], when players travel [[the Underground|underground]], they can find most of the Fossils by digging, along with several other rare items, potentially. After getting the [[National Pokédex]], they can also find the five Fossils from the previous three generations. However, the chances of finding most of the previous generation Fossils, much like with several other items, follows a similar formula to the Sinnoh Fossils. This makes it easier to find certain Fossils which are found uncommonly, while the others become more difficult in the opposite version which instead are found very rarely. For example, the Helix and Claw Fossils have an easier chance to be found if the Skull Fossil is available, or the Dome and Root Fossil if the Armor Fossil is available. The Old Amber is the only Fossil whose ratio remains unchanged regardless of version as it will always be found rarely.<br />
<br />
In [[Johto]]'s [[Generation IV]] games, the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Helix Fossil|Helix]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils as well as the [[Old Amber]] can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s outside [[Ruins of Alph]]. [[Root Fossil|Root]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Claw Fossil|Claw]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the [[Cliff Cave]] after entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Fossils found in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} can be revived as level 20 Pokémon at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. The Skull and Armor Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon revived from them, must be transferred from Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum.<br />
<br />
In this generation, Fossils are considered to be normal items. As such, they can be held by a Pokémon and traded to another game.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]] has a Cranidos, while his father, [[Byron]], has a {{p|Bastiodon}}. {{p|Rampardos}} and Shieldon are also used by two minor Trainers. After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be spotted with other Trainers.<br />
<br />
As in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, [[Brock]] has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} on his team in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and also uses a Rampardos in rematches. [[Lance]] continues to have Aerodactyl on his initial team, but it is not used in rematches.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation V]]===<br />
{{game|Black and White|s}} once again brought a new set of Fossils to the Pokémon world:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{unova color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{unova color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{water color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Cover Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|564|Tirtouga}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Plume Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|566|Archen}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Cover Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{flying color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{flying color dark}}|Plume Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be revived into level 25 Pokémon using a machine in the [[Nacrene City]] Museum.<br />
<br />
In Pokémon Black and White, one of these two Fossils will be given away by a person in [[Relic Castle]], similar to how the Helix and Dome Fossils are originally obtained in the Kanto-based games.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|sequels]] to these games, the Fossils are instead given away by former Gym Leader [[Lenora]].<br />
<br />
In [[Chargestone Cave]], a couple of {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s battle with a {{p|Tirtouga}} and an {{p|Archen}}. In Black 2 and White 2, two {{tc|Backpacker}}s on {{rt|1|Unova}} also use teams entirely made out of Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
The two final evolutions of the Fossil Pokémon released in this generation ({{p|Carracosta}} and {{p|Archeops}}) are used by [[N]] in the final battle against him in [[N's Castle]].<br />
<br />
After defeating [[Ghetsis]]{{sup/5|BW}} or [[Iris]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}, Fossils of previous generations will be given out by a {{tc|Worker}} in [[Twist Mountain]], with one being given out per day.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VI]]===<br />
Two Fossil Pokémon were introduced for {{g|X and Y}}.<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{kalos color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{kalos color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Jaw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|696|Tyrunt}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Sail Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|698|Amaura}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{dragon color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{dragon color dark}}|Jaw Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{ice color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{ice color dark}}|Sail Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
One of the two Fossils is given to the player in [[Glittering Cave]] and can be restored at the research facility in [[Ambrette Town]]. The resulting Pokémon are level 20. The [[Old Amber]] can also be collected after this by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the back of Glittering Cave.<br />
<br />
Gym Leader [[Grant]] uses {{p|Tyrunt}} and {{p|Amaura}} and their evolved forms in subsequent rematches. Champion [[Diantha]] also uses {{p|Tyrantrum}} and {{p|Aurorus}}.<br />
<br />
After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], the player can return to Glittering Cave and smash rocks to find the Skull, Armor, Plume, and Cover Fossils, regardless of version, as well as Root and Claw Fossils{{sup/6|X}} or Dome and Helix Fossils{{sup/6|Y}}.<br />
<br />
In Hoenn's Generation VI games, the Root and Claw Fossil are collected and restored the same way as the original Ruby and Sapphire games. Restoring Fossils can be done at the second floor of the [[Devon Corporation]]. After battling {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}}, a number of other Fossils can be collected by smashing [[breakable rock]]s at the [[Mirage spot]]s. While the Old Amber can be found regardless of version, the Dome, Armor, and Plume Fossils are exclusive to Omega Ruby and the Helix, Skull, and Cover Fossils are exclusive to Alpha Sapphire. The Jaw and Sail Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon that are revived from them, must be transferred from X and Y.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VII]]===<br />
Generation VII introduces no new Fossils, but the player may obtain most of the previous Fossils depending on the game. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], only the Fossils from Sinnoh and Unova are available. Their location is at [[Olivia]]'s jewelry shop in [[Konikoni City]], where the player can buy a [[Skull Fossil]] and a [[Cover Fossil]] in Pokémon Sun or an [[Armor Fossil]] and a [[Plume Fossil]] in Pokémon Moon. <br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], this has been expanded to include more of the previous Fossils which were absent from the original games. The [[Helix Fossil|Helix]], [[Claw Fossil|Claw]], and [[Jaw Fossil|Jaw]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Skull and Cover Fossils in Ultra Sun, and the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]], [[Root Fossil|Root]], and [[Sail Fossil|Sail]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Armor and Plume Fossils in Ultra Moon. Additionally, unlike the original games, any of these fossils can now also be obtained from Isle Aphun at [[Poké Pelago]] regardless of version. This is done from conducting a Rare Treasure-Hunting expedition (or an Interesting Item-Hunting expedition once the island has reached Development Level 3), where any of these Fossils have a very rare chance of being obtained. <br />
<br />
The Fossils can be revived at the Fossil Restoration Center on {{rt|8|Alola}}. The newly revived Pokémon come at level 15.<br />
<br />
Unlike the other Fossils, the [[Old Amber]] is unobtainable in [[Alola]]. Instead, an {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be obtained at [[Seafolk Village]] as a [[gift Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
Several minor Trainers use some of these Fossil Pokémon or their evolved forms as part of their teams. In addition for Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon only, [[Olivia]] uses both {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Anorith}} during her grand trial. Later, when the player faces Olivia at the {{al|Pokémon League}}, they have evolved into {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}} respectively as part of her upgraded team.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], all three Kanto Fossils are obtainable in the same locations as they were in Generations I and III. On the second basement of [[Mt. Moon]], the player must still make a choice of either the [[Helix Fossil|Helix]] or [[Dome Fossil]] to proceed with the main story, and the [[Old Amber]] may still be obtained from a scientist in the back room at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. All three fossils may be revived at the lab on [[Cinnabar Island]], but this time are obtained at level 44. <br />
For a first time for the [[Generation I]] [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|versions]] [[Pokémon Yellow Version|and]] [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|their]] [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|remakes]], additional instances of all three original fossils can be found on the second floor of [[Cerulean Cave]], where random rare items spawn occasionally.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VIII]]===<br />
Generation VIII introduced four new Fossils, the most of any generation. Reviving Fossils in {{g|Sword and Shield}} is a much different process than it has been in the past generations. Two completely different Fossils must be combined, by [[Cara Liss]] on {{rt|6|Galar}}, to form a chimeric Fossil Pokémon. These Pokémon all start at [[level]] 10, their [[Gender unknown|genders are unknown]], and [[No Eggs Discovered (Egg Group)|cannot breed]]. These are also the only Fossil Pokémon that are not {{type|Rock}}.<br />

<br />
Most previous Fossil Pokémon can be encountered in the {{pkmn2|wild}} in the [[Crown Tundra]], often as [[wanderer]]s, with possible exceptions being {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Omastar}} (exclusive to Sword), {{p|Kabuto}} and {{p|Kabutops}} (exclusive to Shield), and [[Generation IV]] Fossil Pokémon (unavailable in both versions). While no attention is brought to the reason for their presence as wild Pokémon in modern times, with most of their [[Pokédex]] entries in Sword and Shield either mentioning they were revived from Fossils or glossing over their status as Fossil Pokémon entirely, {{p|Omanyte}}'s entry in Pokémon Sword specifically mentions specimens that either escaped or were [[Released Pokémon|released]] after their revival. The only other clearly stated case is {{p|Kabuto}}, whose Pokédex entries have been mentioning its status as a {{wp|living fossil}} since [[Generation II]]. Data for their respective Fossils still exists in the games, but they cannot be obtained.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, it is for the most part the same as {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, with only the Fossils from the first four generations available, with Skull Fossils being exclusive to Brilliant Diamond and Armor Fossils being exclusive to Shining Pearl. They can be dug up in the Underground's replacement, the [[Grand Underground]]. Unlike the originals, the Fossils from the first three Generations are available earlier; the requirement for them to appear in the Grand Underground is to defeat or capture {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/8|SP}} on the [[Spear Pillar]], rather than obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]. Like in the originals, [[Roark]] uses a {{p|Cranidos}} and his father [[Byron]] uses a {{p|Bastiodon}}, both as their highest-leveled Pokémon. {{p|Rampardos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} are used by a few Trainers, and the former evolves from Roark's Cranidos in the [[rematch]] with him, which can be done once per day after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtaining the National Pokédex. In said rematch, Roark additionally uses an {{p|Aerodactyl}} and an {{p|Armaldo}}, two other Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Fossils do not exist at all, in the game's coding or otherwise. Rather, only {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} can be obtained, and they can be found as rare spawns in [[space-time distortion]]s in the [[Coronet Highlands]].<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IX]]===<br />
There are no new Fossils to acquire in {{2v2|Scarlet|Violet}}, and thus no new Fossil Pokémon, and similar to in Generation II there is no way to obtain old Fossils and the Pokemon therein, rendering all previous Fossil Pokémon unavailable.<br />

==In spin-off games==<br />
===Pokémon Quest===<br />
[[File:Quest Fossil.png|thumb|100px|A Fossil in Pokémon Quest]]<br />
A Fossil is an ingredient that can be used in {{OBP|cooking|Quest}} to attract wild Pokémon in [[Pokémon Quest]].<br />
<br />
====Description====<br />
{{movedesc|items}}<br />
{{movedescentry|'''{{color2|{{orange color dark}}|Pokémon Quest|Quest}}'''|Hard and small ingredients.}}<br />
|}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
====Acquisition====<br />
Fossil is a possible ingredient that can be obtained by completing [[Tumblecube Island|expeditions]]. It can also be obtained randomly by recycling [[Power Stone]]s.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
===Main series===<br />
[[File:Dome Fossil anime.png|thumb|250px|Dome Fossil in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]<br />
[[File:Sunkern leaf fossil.png|thumb|250px|A fossilized {{p|Sunkern}} leaf in the anime]]<br />
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, some Fossil Pokémon are in fact, not extinct, but have simply been hibernating underground for millions of years, as seen in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', ''[[EP089|Shell Shock!]]'', and ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]''. However {{Gary}} has used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[HS15|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl!]]''. Unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}, where Fossils of ancient Pokémon are resurrected into the skeletons of the prehistoric using a machine that recreates the missing organs that had decomposed away from the genes extracted in the remains, this Aerodactyl was in fact completely revived from a Fossil that was fully preserved inside of an Old Amber for millions of years and thus still had the memories of its past life.<br />
<br />
[[Butler]] tried to create a {{p|Groudon}} for [[Team Magma]] in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'' from a fossilized remnant, but the experiment failed and Butler left Team Magma. [[Professor Proctor]] used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[AG102|Where's Armaldo?]]''.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]], as he does in the {{pkmn|games}}, has a Cranidos which evolves into a {{TP|Roark|Rampardos}}. Roark and his team retrieve Fossils from the [[Oreburgh Mine]] and give them to the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]]. The museum's director [[Dr. Kenzo]] uses the Fossils for their Fossil revitalization program. Roark's Pokémon, as well as several other Fossil Pokémon revived by the Fossil Restorer Machine, appear in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]'', and ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]''. [[Byron]], Roark's father, also has quite a collection in [[Canalave Gym|his Gym]]. This includes the Fossil Pokémon {{p|Kabuto}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Omastar}}, {{p|Cradily}}, and {{p|Armaldo}}, as well as a giant Claw Fossil. He also kept a {{p|Sunkern}} leaf Fossil that Roark found when he was a child.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene City Museum!]]'', a {{p|Kabuto}} Fossil was first seen chasing [[Hawes]], as he claimed it to be doing, but was later seen safely placed in a display case. Hawes later explained what it was to the trio. It was later revealed that the {{p|Yamask}} in the Nacrene City Museum was using its move {{m|Psychic}} to make the Dome Fossil float and chase after Hawes after he put its mask in a display case, thinking that it was a replica Yamask mask given to him as a gift from the company that made a {{p|Cofagrigus}} replica after purchasing it from them for the museum.<br />
<br />
[[Lenora]] gave a Plume Fossil to [[Professor Juniper]] and [[Fennel]] prior to ''[[BW036|Archeops In The Modern World!]]''. They successfully resurrected a female {{p|Archen}} from the Fossil using {{p|Musharna}}'s dream energy. With the help of {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Tranquill}}, Archen learned how to fly and then evolved into {{p|Archeops}}.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW075|A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1]]'', {{TRT}} stole a Cover Fossil from [[Ferris]]. [[Dr. Zager]] revived it into a {{p|Tirtouga}} as part of a plot to open a Time Gate beneath [[Twist Mountain]], but the Tirtouga subsequently escaped, evolved into {{p|Carracosta}} and returned to the past through the Time Gate in [[BW076|the next episode]].<br />
<br />
{{an|Kiawe}} found two Fossils in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'', during the [[Poké Ride|Stoutland Search]] treasure hunt set up for Ash and his classmates by [[Olivia]]. On the first round, he found a Skull Fossil, and on the second one, he found a Plume Fossil.<br />
<br />
[[Goh]] found an Old Amber in ''[[JN038|Restore and Renew!]]'' during a Fossil excavation. It was later revived into an {{TP|Goh|Aerodactyl}} and caught by him.<br />
<br />
In ''[[JN050|A Pinch of This, a Pinch of That!]]'', Ash, Goh, and [[Chloe]] traveled to [[Galar]] to dig up Fossils in the [[Wild Area]]. With the help of [[Cara Liss]] and [[Bray Zenn]], they found four Fossils and revived them into a {{AP|Dracovish}} and an {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Arctozolt}}, which Ash and Goh, respectively, later caught.<br />
<br />
===Pokémon Origins===<br />
[[File:Super Nerd PO.png|thumb|250px|Dome and Helix Fossils in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]<br />
The Dome and Helix Fossils were seen briefly in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', being hogged by a {{tc|Super Nerd}} whom {{OBP|Red|Origins}} encountered on [[Mt. Moon]].<br />
<br />
In ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]'', Red was seen using a {{p|Kabutops}} in his battle against [[Giovanni]], presumably revived from a Dome Fossil. Since Red is mentioned to have caught all 150 [[Generation I]] Pokémon (excluding {{p|Mew}}) by the time of ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', it means that he has also obtained the other Kanto Fossil Pokémon, presumably also revived from Fossils. As {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} was mentioned to have collected 148 Pokémon, it is likely that he had also collected all Kanto Fossil Pokémon.<br />

===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, Lance and Brock both have Fossil Pokémon, just as in the games. Misty also temporarily has an {{p|Omanyte}}, but she gives this to {{adv|Yellow}}. In addition, {{adv|Red}} uses [[Blaine]]'s laboratory to revive an [[Aero]]dactyl. In [[Hoenn]], {{adv|Ruby}} fights a revived {{p|Lileep}} and an {{p|Anorith}} at [[Professor Cozmo]]'s laboratory in [[Fallarbor Town]]. In [[Sinnoh]], [[Roark]] has a {{p|Cranidos}} like in the games, and [[Byron|his father]] a [[Don|Shieldon]], which he later gives to {{adv|Diamond}}. In [[Unova]], [[N]] had an {{p|Archeops}}, which he released, and {{adv|Black}} has a [[Costa|Carracosta]], which was owned by [[Marshal]] as a {{p|Tirtouga}}. {{adv|Blake}} also has a {{p|Kabutops}}. In [[Kalos]], [[Grant]] has an {{p|Aurorus}} and a {{p|Tyrantrum}}. In [[Galar]], [[Marvin]] obtained a {{p|Dracovish}} after saving it from several [[Macro Cosmos]] employees.<br />

==In the TCG==<br />
[[File:UnidentifiedFossilUltraPrism134.jpg|thumb|250px|The {{TCG ID|Ultra Prism|Unidentified Fossil|134}} from the Sun & Moon Series]]<br />
All Fossils have appeared in the TCG at one point or another, usually being released in the same expansion as the Pokémon which are revived from them, and being released as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s. Initially, only the {{TCG|Mysterious Fossil}} card existed, which could be evolved into any of the three Generation I Fossil Pokémon; however, its use was eventually discontinued in favor of individual {{TCG|Dome Fossil}}, {{TCG|Helix Fossil}}, and {{TCG|Old Amber}} cards to match the {{TCG|Claw Fossil|Claw}}, {{TCG|Root Fossil|Root}}, {{TCG|Skull Fossil|Skull}}, {{TCG|Armor Fossil|Armor}}, {{TCG|Cover Fossil|Cover}}, {{TCG|Plume Fossil|Plume}}, {{TCG|Jaw Fossil|Jaw}}, and {{TCG|Sail Fossil|Sail}} Fossil cards. {{TCG|Ultra Prism}} brought the return of a shared Trainer card which could evolve into any Fossil Pokémon released during the Sun & Moon Series, this time known as {{TCG|Unidentified Fossil}}.<br />
<br />
In addition, there are some other Fossil (related) cards, like {{TCG|Buried Fossil}} from {{TCG|Skyridge}} (the only non-Trainer Fossil cards, which is a {{TCG|Colorless}} {{e|Colorless}} type Pokémon instead); {{TCG|Fossil Egg}} from {{TCG|Neo Discovery}}; and {{TCG|Holon Fossil}} from {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}.<br />
<br />
The following is a list of Fossil items unique to the Trading Card Game, with cards played as {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} listed first. For listings of cards corresponding to specific game Fossils, see their individual item pages.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* The [[Generation I]] Fossil Pokémon are the only {{type|Rock}} Pokémon of that generation that are not part {{type|Ground}}.<br />
* {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Rampardos}} are the only Fossil Pokémon that are pure-Rock type.<br />
* {{p|Tirtouga}} and {{p|Carracosta}} are the only Fossil Pokémon to have Rock as their secondary type.<br />
* {{p|Archen}} and {{p|Archeops}} are the only Fossil Pokémon without Hidden Abilities.<br />
* {{p|Aerodactyl}} is the only Fossil Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]].<br />
* [[Generation VIII]] is the only generation to have Fossil Pokémon that are not Rock types, are gender unknown, and are incapable of {{pkmn|breeding}}.<br />
* The Fossilized Drake and Fossilized Fish appear to have an inventory sprite mix up, as the Fossilized Fish offers the "-vish" head for {{p|Arctovish}} and {{p|Dracovish}}, but the item itself looks more like the Draco- body, with the same being said for the Fossilized Drake looking like the "-vish" head but offers instead the "Draco-" body for Dracovish and {{p|Dracozolt}}.<br />
* [[Generation III]] also introduces {{p|Relicanth}}, a ancient Pokémon which is partially Rock-type which is often considered a {{wp|living fossil}}, as it has survived extinction for a hundred million years. Since [[Generation II]], various Pokédex entries for {{p|Kabuto}} have suggested that it too may be a living fossil. However, since Relicanth is only ever able to be caught in the wild and never revived from a fossil, it is not included in the Fossil Pokémon group.<br />
* In {{g|Colosseum}}'s Story Mode, various characters use {{p|Lileep}}, {{p|Anorith}}, {{p|Cradily}}, and Armaldo}}, in contrast to the scarcity of fossil Pokémon usage in the core series games. The most famous of these users are [[Miror B.]] and [[Gonzap]], each of whom at some point has an Armaldo on his team. However, in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], Lileep, Anorith, Cradily, and Armaldo only appear once, although an {{p|Aerodactyl}} also appears on [[Greevil]]'s team once his [[Shadow Pokémon]] have been Snagged.<br />
* While it cannot be revived via Fossil, the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Genesect}} is known to have been created by [[Team Plasma]] by reviving a prehistoric Pokémon and upgrading it by attaching a cannon to its back. <br />
* Similarly, the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}} had a fossilized eyebrow in [[M01|the anime's first movie]] from which its genetic material was used to create {{p|Mewtwo}}. However, in the games, no mention of this fossil is made, and the journal entries in the [[Pokémon Mansion]] on [[Cinnabar Island]] suggest that a living Mew was captured and "gave birth" to the clone Mewtwo. Mew's introduction to the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] in the Japanese version of the {{TCG|Fossil}} Expansion could be considered a reference to this part of the anime. <br />
* Fossil Pokémon are featured in a Japan-only nationwide traveling exhibition, Pokémon Fossil Museum (Japanese: ポケモン化石博物館). Visitors can learn about the real-life prehistoric animals that inspired the designs of Fossil Pokémon and compare between them, and view conceptual artwork depicting the skeletal anatomy of certain Fossil Pokémon, as well as real life replicas of said skeletons. <ref>, Official Pokémon Fossil Museum site [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/index_en.html (English)], [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/ (Japanese)]</ref><br />

[[File:Pokémon Fossil Museum.jpg|thumb|300px|Fossil Pokémon and their real life inspirations]]<br />
A '''Fossil''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|化石|カセキ}}''' ''Fossil'') is a trace or piece of an organism from the past, such as a skeleton, shell, or leaf, preserved in the earth.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon world]], Fossils of prehistoric Pokémon are [[item]]s which can be revived into living Pokémon using techniques developed by the [[Devon Corporation]] and a research laboratory on [[Cinnabar Island]]. The two institutions purportedly developed their techniques independently of each other at around the same time. There are also other scientists around the Pokémon world who can revive Fossils using these techniques.<br />
<br />
Pokémon revived from Fossils are commonly called '''Fossil Pokémon'''.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
Scientists who can revive Fossils can be found in every [[core series]] game except the [[Generation II]] games and {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet and Violet}}.<br />

Prior to Generation IV, Fossils were Key Items. However, from Generation IV and on, they are normal items, meaning that they can be traded freely between games. The table below summarizes the natural availability of the Fossils in the core series games.<br />

In the games, relatively few [[Pokémon Trainer]]s possess Pokémon revived from Fossils, since they are considered rare and difficult to obtain.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation I]]===<br />
In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the first three Fossils were introduced. They have also appeared in most of the later games. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />

<br />
The Helix and Dome Fossils are chosen at the end of [[Mt. Moon]], being guarded by a Super Nerd, but the player may only choose one to keep. The other one that the Super Nerd takes will be revived and put on display in the Safari Zone. The Old Amber is located in the secret part of the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], which can only be accessed with [[HM01]] Cut.<br />
<br />
A scientist in the Pokémon Lab on [[Cinnabar Island]] can revive the Fossils. The resulting Pokémon are level 30. <br />
<br />
During this generation (and their [[Generation III]] {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|remakes|s}}), all Fossils are Key Items, and cannot be traded to other games to be revived.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]] is the first Trainer to be seen with a Fossil Pokémon, possessing an Aerodactyl due to its draconic appearance.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation II]]===<br />
No new Fossils were introduced in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and the three Fossils from Generation I have been removed from the games' data, making this generation the only generation to not feature Fossils in any capacity. In-game, the player simply doesn't happen to find any Fossil during their adventure, while the previously introduced Cinnabar Lab has been destroyed.<br />
<br />
However, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Kabuto}}, and {{p|Aerodactyl}} are prominently featured in the puzzles located at [[Ruins of Alph]]. Of the three, only Aerodactyl is actually obtainable in the games via an in-game [[trade]] with an NPC in Kanto (for {{p|Chansey}}). Omanyte and Kabuto must be traded from Generation I.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]], who is now the [[Pokémon Champion]], continues to have an Aerodactyl on his team. In addition, [[Brock]], being a Fossil enthusiast, has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} in this generation's games, as well as the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Stadium games]] in [[Gym Leader Castle]]. His fondness of Fossils is referenced again in the next generation of games when a man in [[Mt. Moon]] mentions that Brock helps excavate Fossils at the location, which implies that he excavated Omastar and Kabutops's Fossils himself.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation III]]===<br />
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, two new Fossils were introduced. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{hoenn color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{hoenn color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Root Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|345|Lileep}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Claw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|347|Anorith}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{grass color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{grass color dark}}|Root Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{bug color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{bug color dark}}|Claw Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
In Ruby and Sapphire, the player can choose one of either the Root or Claw Fossils at {{rt|111|Hoenn}}, and upon choosing, the other will sink away into the sand. In Emerald, however, while the player can only choose one initially at the [[Mirage Tower]], they can retrieve the other later at the end of the [[Desert Underpass]]. In the Generation I remakes, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player can obtain the same Fossils as in the original games: either the Helix or the Dome Fossil, and the Old Amber.<br />
<br />
Additionally, {{p|Relicanth}} is also an ancient Pokémon which is partially Rock-type, and it can be considered a {{wp|living fossil}}. However, since it survived extinction for approximately a hundred million years and can be caught in the wild instead of being revived from a Fossil, it is rarely included in the Fossil Pokémon group.<br />
<br />
[[Steven Stone]], a rock collector whose father is head of the Devon Corporation, has two Fossil Pokémon, {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}}. In {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Roxanne]] will eventually gain a Kabutops, an Omastar, and an Aerodactyl for her team. Also, in FireRed and LeafGreen, Lance continues to have Aerodactyl on his team.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Colosseum}}'s Story Mode, various characters use the [[Hoenn]] Fossils, as well as Relicanth. The most famous of these users are [[Miror B.]] and [[Gonzap]], each of whom at some point has an Armaldo on his team. In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], this relative ubiquity is cut considerably, with Lileep, Anorith, Cradily, and Armaldo only appearing once. With that said, Relicanth deserves special mention as a member of [[Zook]]'s team, while an Aerodactyl will appear on [[Greevil]]'s team once his [[Shadow Pokémon]] have been Snagged.<br />
<br />
FireRed and LeafGreen Fossils are obtained the same way as in Generation I, while Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald Fossils may be revived by a scientist in the [[Devon Corporation]] building in [[Rustboro City]]. Newly resurrected Pokémon are level 20 in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald and level 5 in FireRed and LeafGreen.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IV]]===<br />
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, two new Fossils were again introduced:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{sinnoh color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{sinnoh color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Skull Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|408|Cranidos}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Armor Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|410|Shieldon}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Skull Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{steel color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{steel color dark}}|Armor Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be turned into level 20 Pokémon at the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]].<br />
<br />
In Diamond and Pearl, for the first time in the series, the Fossils the player is able to receive are dependent on the version played: Skull Fossils are available in Diamond only and Armor Fossils in Pearl only. In Platinum, whichever Fossil a player digs up will depend on whether the Trainer ID is even or odd. If the Trainer ID is even, the player will dig up Armor Fossils only, and if the Trainer ID is odd, the player will dig up Skull Fossils only.<br />
<br />
In [[Sinnoh]], when players travel [[the Underground|underground]], they can find most of the Fossils by digging, along with several other rare items, potentially. After getting the [[National Pokédex]], they can also find the five Fossils from the previous three generations. However, the chances of finding most of the previous generation Fossils, much like with several other items, follows a similar formula to the Sinnoh Fossils. This makes it easier to find certain Fossils which are found uncommonly, while the others become more difficult in the opposite version which instead are found very rarely. For example, the Helix and Claw Fossils have an easier chance to be found if the Skull Fossil is available, or the Dome and Root Fossil if the Armor Fossil is available. The Old Amber is the only Fossil whose ratio remains unchanged regardless of version as it will always be found rarely.<br />
<br />
In [[Johto]]'s [[Generation IV]] games, the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Helix Fossil|Helix]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils as well as the [[Old Amber]] can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s outside [[Ruins of Alph]]. [[Root Fossil|Root]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Claw Fossil|Claw]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the [[Cliff Cave]] after entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Fossils found in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} can be revived as level 20 Pokémon at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. The Skull and Armor Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon revived from them, must be transferred from Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum.<br />
<br />
In this generation, Fossils are considered to be normal items. As such, they can be held by a Pokémon and traded to another game.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]] has a Cranidos, while his father, [[Byron]], has a {{p|Bastiodon}}. {{p|Rampardos}} and Shieldon are also used by two minor Trainers. After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be spotted with other Trainers.<br />
<br />
As in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, [[Brock]] has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} on his team in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and also uses a Rampardos in rematches. [[Lance]] continues to have Aerodactyl on his initial team, but it is not used in rematches.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation V]]===<br />
{{game|Black and White|s}} once again brought a new set of Fossils to the Pokémon world:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{unova color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{unova color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{water color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Cover Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|564|Tirtouga}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Plume Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|566|Archen}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Cover Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{flying color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{flying color dark}}|Plume Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be revived into level 25 Pokémon using a machine in the [[Nacrene City]] Museum.<br />
<br />
In Pokémon Black and White, one of these two Fossils will be given away by a person in [[Relic Castle]], similar to how the Helix and Dome Fossils are originally obtained in the Kanto-based games.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|sequels]] to these games, the Fossils are instead given away by former Gym Leader [[Lenora]].<br />
<br />
In [[Chargestone Cave]], a couple of {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s battle with a {{p|Tirtouga}} and an {{p|Archen}}. In Black 2 and White 2, two {{tc|Backpacker}}s on {{rt|1|Unova}} also use teams entirely made out of Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
The two final evolutions of the Fossil Pokémon released in this generation ({{p|Carracosta}} and {{p|Archeops}}) are used by [[N]] in the final battle against him in [[N's Castle]].<br />
<br />
After defeating [[Ghetsis]]{{sup/5|BW}} or [[Iris]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}, Fossils of previous generations will be given out by a {{tc|Worker}} in [[Twist Mountain]], with one being given out per day.<br />
<br />
While it cannot be revived via Fossil, {{p|Genesect}} is known to have been created by [[Team Plasma]] by reviving a prehistoric Pokémon and upgrading it by attaching a cannon to its back.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VI]]===<br />
Two Fossil Pokémon were introduced for {{g|X and Y}}.<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{kalos color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{kalos color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Jaw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|696|Tyrunt}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Sail Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|698|Amaura}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{dragon color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{dragon color dark}}|Jaw Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{ice color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{ice color dark}}|Sail Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
One of the two Fossils is given to the player in [[Glittering Cave]] and can be restored at the research facility in [[Ambrette Town]]. The resulting Pokémon are level 20. The [[Old Amber]] can also be collected after this by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the back of Glittering Cave.<br />
<br />
Gym Leader [[Grant]] uses {{p|Tyrunt}} and {{p|Amaura}} and their evolved forms in subsequent rematches. Champion [[Diantha]] also uses {{p|Tyrantrum}} and {{p|Aurorus}}.<br />
<br />
After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], the player can return to Glittering Cave and smash rocks to find the Skull, Armor, Plume, and Cover Fossils, regardless of version, as well as Root and Claw Fossils{{sup/6|X}} or Dome and Helix Fossils{{sup/6|Y}}.<br />
<br />
In Hoenn's Generation VI games, the Root and Claw Fossil are collected and restored the same way as the original Ruby and Sapphire games. Restoring Fossils can be done at the second floor of the [[Devon Corporation]]. After battling {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}}, a number of other Fossils can be collected by smashing [[breakable rock]]s at the [[Mirage spot]]s. While the Old Amber can be found regardless of version, the Dome, Armor, and Plume Fossils are exclusive to Omega Ruby and the Helix, Skull, and Cover Fossils are exclusive to Alpha Sapphire. The Jaw and Sail Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon that are revived from them, must be transferred from X and Y.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VII]]===<br />
Generation VII introduces no new Fossils, but the player may obtain most of the previous Fossils depending on the game. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], only the Fossils from Sinnoh and Unova are available. Their location is at [[Olivia]]'s jewelry shop in [[Konikoni City]], where the player can buy a [[Skull Fossil]] and a [[Cover Fossil]] in Pokémon Sun or an [[Armor Fossil]] and a [[Plume Fossil]] in Pokémon Moon. <br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], this has been expanded to include more of the previous Fossils which were absent from the original games. The [[Helix Fossil|Helix]], [[Claw Fossil|Claw]], and [[Jaw Fossil|Jaw]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Skull and Cover Fossils in Ultra Sun, and the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]], [[Root Fossil|Root]], and [[Sail Fossil|Sail]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Armor and Plume Fossils in Ultra Moon. Additionally, unlike the original games, any of these fossils can now also be obtained from Isle Aphun at [[Poké Pelago]] regardless of version. This is done from conducting a Rare Treasure-Hunting expedition (or an Interesting Item-Hunting expedition once the island has reached Development Level 3), where any of these Fossils have a very rare chance of being obtained. <br />
<br />
The Fossils can be revived at the Fossil Restoration Center on {{rt|8|Alola}}. The newly revived Pokémon come at level 15.<br />
<br />
Unlike the other Fossils, the [[Old Amber]] is unobtainable in [[Alola]]. Instead, an {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be obtained at [[Seafolk Village]] as a [[gift Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
Several minor Trainers use some of these Fossil Pokémon or their evolved forms as part of their teams. In addition for Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon only, [[Olivia]] uses both {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Anorith}} during her grand trial. Later, when the player faces Olivia at the {{al|Pokémon League}}, they have evolved into {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}} respectively as part of her upgraded team.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], all the Kanto Fossils are obtainable in the same locations as they were in Generations I and III. In addition, more of them can be found on the second floor of [[Cerulean Cave]], where random rare items spawn occasionally.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VIII]]===<br />
Generation VIII introduced four new Fossils, the most of any generation. Reviving Fossils in {{g|Sword and Shield}} is a much different process than it has been in the past generations. Two completely different Fossils must be combined, by [[Cara Liss]] on {{rt|6|Galar}}, to form a chimeric Fossil Pokémon. These Pokémon all start at [[level]] 10, their [[Gender unknown|genders are unknown]], and [[No Eggs Discovered (Egg Group)|cannot breed]]. These are also the only Fossil Pokémon that are not {{type|Rock}}.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
Most previous Fossil Pokémon can be encountered in the {{pkmn2|wild}} in the [[Crown Tundra]], often as [[wanderer]]s, with possible exceptions being {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Omastar}} (exclusive to Sword), {{p|Kabuto}} and {{p|Kabutops}} (exclusive to Shield), and [[Generation IV]] Fossil Pokémon (unavailable in both versions). While no attention is brought to the reason for their presence as wild Pokémon in modern times, with most of their [[Pokédex]] entries in Sword and Shield either mentioning they were revived from Fossils or glossing over their status as Fossil Pokémon entirely, {{p|Omanyte}}'s entry in Pokémon Sword specifically mentions specimens that either escaped or were [[Released Pokémon|released]] after their revival. The only other clearly stated case is {{p|Kabuto}}, whose Pokédex entries have been mentioning its status as a {{wp|living fossil}} akin to {{p|Relicanth}} since [[Generation II]]. Data for their respective Fossils still exists in the games, but they cannot be obtained.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, it is for the most part the same as {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, with only the Fossils from the first four generations available, with Skull Fossils being exclusive to Brilliant Diamond and Armor Fossils being exclusive to Shining Pearl. They can be dug up in the Underground's replacement, the [[Grand Underground]]. Unlike the originals, the Fossils from the first three Generations are available earlier; the requirement for them to appear in the Grand Underground is to defeat or capture {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/8|SP}} on the [[Spear Pillar]], rather than obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]. Like in the originals, [[Roark]] uses a {{p|Cranidos}} and his father [[Byron]] uses a {{p|Bastiodon}}, both as their highest-leveled Pokémon. {{p|Rampardos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} are used by a few Trainers, and the former evolves from Roark's Cranidos in the [[rematch]] with him, which can be done once per day after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtaining the National Pokédex. In said rematch, Roark additionally uses an {{p|Aerodactyl}} and an {{p|Armaldo}}, two other Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Fossils do not exist at all, in the game's coding or otherwise. Rather, only {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} can be obtained, and they can be found as rare spawns in [[space-time distortion]]s in the [[Coronet Highlands]].<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IX]]===<br />
There are no new Fossils to acquire in {{2v2|Scarlet|Violet}}, and thus no new Fossil Pokémon, and similar to in Generation II there is no way to obtain old Fossils and the Pokemon therein, rendering all previous Fossil Pokémon unavailable.<br />

==In the anime==<br />
===Main series===<br />

[[File:Sunkern leaf fossil.png|thumb|250px|A fossilized {{p|Sunkern}} leaf in the anime]]<br />
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, some Fossil Pokémon are in fact, not extinct, but have simply been hibernating underground for millions of years, as seen in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', ''[[EP089|Shell Shock!]]'', and ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]''. However {{Gary}} has used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[HS15|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl!]]''. Unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}, where Fossils of ancient Pokémon are resurrected into the skeletons of the prehistoric using a machine that recreates the missing organs that had decomposed away from the genes extracted in the remains, this Aerodactyl was in fact completely revived from a Fossil that was fully preserved inside of an Old Amber for millions of years and thus still had the memories of its past life.<br />
<br />
[[Butler]] tried to create a {{p|Groudon}} for [[Team Magma]] in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'' from a fossilized remnant, but the experiment failed and Butler left Team Magma. [[Professor Proctor]] used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[AG102|Where's Armaldo?]]''.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]], as he does in the {{pkmn|games}}, has a Cranidos which evolves into a {{TP|Roark|Rampardos}}. Roark and his team retrieve Fossils from the [[Oreburgh Mine]] and give them to the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]]. The museum's director [[Dr. Kenzo]] uses the Fossils for their Fossil revitalization program. Roark's Pokémon, as well as several other Fossil Pokémon revived by the Fossil Restorer Machine, appear in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]'', and ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]''. [[Byron]], Roark's father, also has quite a collection in [[Canalave Gym|his Gym]]. This includes the Fossil Pokémon {{p|Kabuto}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Omastar}}, {{p|Cradily}}, and {{p|Armaldo}}, as well as a giant Claw Fossil. He also kept a {{p|Sunkern}} leaf Fossil that Roark found when he was a child.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene City Museum!]]'', a {{p|Kabuto}} Fossil was first seen chasing [[Hawes]], as he claimed it to be doing, but was later seen safely placed in a display case. Hawes later explained what it was to the trio. It was later revealed that the {{p|Yamask}} in the Nacrene City Museum was using its move {{m|Psychic}} to make the Dome Fossil float and chase after Hawes after he put its mask in a display case, thinking that it was a replica Yamask mask given to him as a gift from the company that made a {{p|Cofagrigus}} replica after purchasing it from them for the museum.<br />
<br />
[[Lenora]] gave a Plume Fossil to [[Professor Juniper]] and [[Fennel]] prior to ''[[BW036|Archeops In The Modern World!]]''. They successfully resurrected a female {{p|Archen}} from the Fossil using {{p|Musharna}}'s dream energy. With the help of {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Tranquill}}, Archen learned how to fly and then evolved into {{p|Archeops}}.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW075|A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1]]'', {{TRT}} stole a Cover Fossil from [[Ferris]]. [[Dr. Zager]] revived it into a {{p|Tirtouga}} as part of a plot to open a Time Gate beneath [[Twist Mountain]], but the Tirtouga subsequently escaped, evolved into {{p|Carracosta}} and returned to the past through the Time Gate in [[BW076|the next episode]].<br />
<br />
{{an|Kiawe}} found two Fossils in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'', during the [[Poké Ride|Stoutland Search]] treasure hunt set up for Ash and his classmates by [[Olivia]]. On the first round, he found a Skull Fossil, and on the second one, he found a Plume Fossil.<br />
<br />
[[Goh]] found an Old Amber in ''[[JN038|Restore and Renew!]]'' during a Fossil excavation. It was later revived into an {{TP|Goh|Aerodactyl}} and caught by him.<br />
<br />
In ''[[JN050|A Pinch of This, a Pinch of That!]]'', Ash, Goh, and [[Chloe]] traveled to [[Galar]] to dig up Fossils in the [[Wild Area]]. With the help of [[Cara Liss]] and [[Bray Zenn]], they found four Fossils and revived them into a {{AP|Dracovish}} and an {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Arctozolt}}, which Ash and Goh, respectively, later caught.<br />
<br />
===Pokémon Origins===<br />
[[File:Super Nerd PO.png|thumb|250px|Dome and Helix Fossils in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]<br />
The Dome and Helix Fossils were seen briefly in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', being hogged by a {{tc|Super Nerd}} whom {{OBP|Red|Origins}} encountered on [[Mt. Moon]].<br />
<br />
In ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]'', Red was seen using a {{p|Kabutops}} in his battle against [[Giovanni]], presumably revived from a Dome Fossil. Since Red is mentioned to have caught all 150 [[Generation I]] Pokémon (excluding {{p|Mew}}) by the time of ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', it means that he has also obtained the other Kanto Fossil Pokémon, presumably also revived from Fossils. As {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} was mentioned to have collected 148 Pokémon, it is likely that he had also collected all Kanto Fossil Pokémon.<br />

===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, Lance and Brock both have Fossil Pokémon, just as in the games. Misty also temporarily has an {{p|Omanyte}}, but she gives this to {{adv|Yellow}}. In addition, {{adv|Red}} uses [[Blaine]]'s laboratory to revive an [[Aero]]dactyl. In [[Hoenn]], {{adv|Ruby}} fights a revived {{p|Lileep}} and an {{p|Anorith}} at [[Professor Cozmo]]'s laboratory in [[Fallarbor Town]]. In [[Sinnoh]], [[Roark]] has a {{p|Cranidos}} like in the games, and [[Byron|his father]] a [[Don|Shieldon]], which he later gives to {{adv|Diamond}}. In [[Unova]], [[N]] had an {{p|Archeops}}, which he released, and {{adv|Black}} has a [[Costa|Carracosta]], which was owned by [[Marshal]] as a {{p|Tirtouga}}. {{adv|Blake}} also has a {{p|Kabutops}}. In [[Kalos]], [[Grant]] has an {{p|Aurorus}} and a {{p|Tyrantrum}}. In [[Galar]], [[Marvin]] obtained a {{p|Dracovish}} after saving it from several [[Macro Cosmos]] employees.<br />

==In the TCG==<br />
[[File:UnidentifiedFossilUltraPrism134.jpg|thumb|250px|The {{TCG ID|Ultra Prism|Unidentified Fossil|134}} from the Sun & Moon Series]]<br />
All Fossils have appeared in the TCG at one point or another, usually being released in the same expansion as the Pokémon which are revived from them, and being released as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s. Initially, only the {{TCG|Mysterious Fossil}} card existed, which could be evolved into any of the three Generation I Fossil Pokémon; however, its use was eventually discontinued in favor of individual {{TCG|Dome Fossil}}, {{TCG|Helix Fossil}}, and {{TCG|Old Amber}} cards to match the {{TCG|Claw Fossil|Claw}}, {{TCG|Root Fossil|Root}}, {{TCG|Skull Fossil|Skull}}, {{TCG|Armor Fossil|Armor}}, {{TCG|Cover Fossil|Cover}}, {{TCG|Plume Fossil|Plume}}, {{TCG|Jaw Fossil|Jaw}}, and {{TCG|Sail Fossil|Sail}} Fossil cards. {{TCG|Ultra Prism}} brought the return of a shared Trainer card which could evolve into any Fossil Pokémon released during the Sun & Moon Series, this time known as {{TCG|Unidentified Fossil}}.<br />
<br />
In addition, there are some other Fossil (related) cards, like {{TCG|Buried Fossil}} from {{TCG|Skyridge}} (the only non-Trainer Fossil cards, which is a {{TCG|Colorless}} {{e|Colorless}} type Pokémon instead); {{TCG|Fossil Egg}} from {{TCG|Neo Discovery}}; and {{TCG|Holon Fossil}} from {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}.<br />
<br />
The following is a list of Fossil items unique to the Trading Card Game, with cards played as {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} listed first. For listings of cards corresponding to specific game Fossils, see their individual item pages.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* The [[Generation I]] Fossil Pokémon are the only {{type|Rock}} Pokémon of that generation that are not part {{type|Ground}}.<br />
* {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Rampardos}} are the only Fossil Pokémon that are pure-Rock type.<br />
* {{p|Tirtouga}} and {{p|Carracosta}} are the only Fossil Pokémon to have Rock as their secondary type.<br />
* {{p|Archen}} and {{p|Archeops}} are the only Fossil Pokémon without Hidden Abilities.<br />
* {{p|Aerodactyl}} is the only Fossil Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]].<br />
* [[Generation VIII]] is the only generation to have Fossil Pokémon that are not Rock types, are gender unknown, and are incapable of {{pkmn|breeding}}.<br />
* The Fossilized Drake and Fossilized Fish appear to have an inventory sprite mix up, as the Fossilized Fish offers the "-vish" head for {{p|Arctovish}} and {{p|Dracovish}}, but the item itself looks more like the Draco- body, with the same being said for the Fossilized Drake looking like the "-vish" head but offers instead the "Draco-" body for Dracovish and {{p|Dracozolt}}.<br />
* Fossil Pokémon are featured in a Japan-only nationwide traveling exhibition, Pokémon Fossil Museum (Japanese: ポケモン化石博物館). Visitors can learn about the real-life prehistoric animals that inspired the designs of Fossil Pokémon and compare between them, and view conceptual artwork depicting the skeletal anatomy of certain Fossil Pokémon, as well as real life replicas of said skeletons.<ref>Official Pokémon Fossil Museum site [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/index_en.html (English)], [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/ (Japanese)] </ref><br />

A '''Fossil''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|化石|カセキ}}''' ''Fossil'') is a trace or piece of an organism from the past, such as a skeleton, shell, or leaf, preserved in the earth.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon world]], Fossils of prehistoric Pokémon are [[item]]s which can be revived into living Pokémon using techniques developed by the [[Devon Corporation]] and a research laboratory on [[Cinnabar Island]]. The two institutions purportedly developed their techniques independently of each other at around the same time. There are also other scientists around the Pokémon world who can revive Fossils using these techniques.<br />
<br />
Pokémon revived from Fossils are commonly called '''Fossil Pokémon'''.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
Scientists who can revive Fossils can be found in every [[core series]] game except the [[Generation II]] games and {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet and Violet}}.<br />

Prior to Generation IV, Fossils were Key Items. However, from Generation IV and on, they are normal items, meaning that they can be traded freely between games. The table below summarizes the natural availability of the Fossils in the core series games.<br />

In the games, relatively few [[Pokémon Trainer]]s possess Pokémon revived from Fossils, since they are considered rare and difficult to obtain.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation I]]===<br />
In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, the first three Fossils were introduced. They have also appeared in most of the later games. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />

|}<br />
<br />
The Helix and Dome Fossils are chosen at the end of [[Mt. Moon]], being guarded by a Super Nerd, but the player may only choose one to keep. The other one that the Super Nerd takes will be revived and put on display in the Safari Zone. The Old Amber is located in the secret part of the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], which can only be accessed with [[HM01]] Cut.<br />
<br />
A scientist in the Pokémon Lab on [[Cinnabar Island]] can revive the Fossils. The resulting Pokémon are level 30. <br />
<br />
During this generation (and their [[Generation III]] {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|remakes|s}}), all Fossils are Key Items, and cannot be traded to other games to be revived.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]] is the first Trainer to be seen with a Fossil Pokémon, possessing an Aerodactyl due to its draconic appearance.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation II]]===<br />
No new Fossils were introduced in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and the three Fossils from Generation I have been removed from the games' data, making this generation the only generation to not feature Fossils in any capacity. In-game, the player simply doesn't happen to find any Fossil during their adventure, while the previously introduced Cinnabar Lab has been destroyed.<br />
<br />
However, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Kabuto}}, and {{p|Aerodactyl}} are prominently featured in the puzzles located at [[Ruins of Alph]]. Of the three, only Aerodactyl is actually obtainable in the games via an in-game [[trade]] with an NPC in Kanto (for {{p|Chansey}}). Omanyte and Kabuto must be traded from Generation I.<br />
<br />
[[Lance]], who is now the [[Pokémon Champion]], continues to have an Aerodactyl on his team. In addition, [[Brock]], being a Fossil enthusiast, has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} in this generation's games, as well as the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Stadium games]] in [[Gym Leader Castle]]. His fondness of Fossils is referenced again in the next generation of games when a man in [[Mt. Moon]] mentions that Brock helps excavate Fossils at the location, which implies that he excavated Omastar and Kabutops's Fossils himself.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation III]]===<br />
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, two new Fossils were introduced. They can be resurrected into these respective Pokémon:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{hoenn color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{hoenn color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Root Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|345|Lileep}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Claw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|347|Anorith}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{grass color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{grass color dark}}|Root Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{bug color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{bug color dark}}|Claw Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
In Ruby and Sapphire, the player can choose one of either the Root or Claw Fossils at {{rt|111|Hoenn}}, and upon choosing, the other will sink away into the sand. In Emerald, however, while the player can only choose one initially at the [[Mirage Tower]], they can retrieve the other later at the end of the [[Desert Underpass]]. In the Generation I remakes, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the player can obtain the same Fossils as in the original games: either the Helix or the Dome Fossil, and the Old Amber.<br />
<br />
Additionally, {{p|Relicanth}} is also an ancient Pokémon which is partially Rock-type, and it can be considered a {{wp|living fossil}}. However, since it survived extinction for approximately a hundred million years and can be caught in the wild instead of being revived from a Fossil, it is rarely included in the Fossil Pokémon group.<br />
<br />
[[Steven Stone]], a rock collector whose father is head of the Devon Corporation, has two Fossil Pokémon, {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}}. In {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Roxanne]] will eventually gain a Kabutops, an Omastar, and an Aerodactyl for her team. Also, in FireRed and LeafGreen, Lance continues to have Aerodactyl on his team.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Colosseum}}'s Story Mode, various characters use the [[Hoenn]] Fossils, as well as Relicanth. The most famous of these users are [[Miror B.]] and [[Gonzap]], each of whom at some point has an Armaldo on his team. In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], this relative ubiquity is cut considerably, with Lileep, Anorith, Cradily, and Armaldo only appearing once. With that said, Relicanth deserves special mention as a member of [[Zook]]'s team, while an Aerodactyl will appear on [[Greevil]]'s team once his [[Shadow Pokémon]] have been Snagged.<br />
<br />
FireRed and LeafGreen Fossils are obtained the same way as in Generation I, while Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald Fossils may be revived by a scientist in the [[Devon Corporation]] building in [[Rustboro City]]. Newly resurrected Pokémon are level 20 in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald and level 5 in FireRed and LeafGreen.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IV]]===<br />
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, two new Fossils were again introduced:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{sinnoh color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{sinnoh color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Skull Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|408|Cranidos}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Armor Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/6|410|Shieldon}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Skull Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{steel color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{steel color dark}}|Armor Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be turned into level 20 Pokémon at the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]].<br />
<br />
In Diamond and Pearl, for the first time in the series, the Fossils the player is able to receive are dependent on the version played: Skull Fossils are available in Diamond only and Armor Fossils in Pearl only. In Platinum, whichever Fossil a player digs up will depend on whether the Trainer ID is even or odd. If the Trainer ID is even, the player will dig up Armor Fossils only, and if the Trainer ID is odd, the player will dig up Skull Fossils only.<br />
<br />
In [[Sinnoh]], when players travel [[the Underground|underground]], they can find most of the Fossils by digging, along with several other rare items, potentially. After getting the [[National Pokédex]], they can also find the five Fossils from the previous three generations. However, the chances of finding most of the previous generation Fossils, much like with several other items, follows a similar formula to the Sinnoh Fossils. This makes it easier to find certain Fossils which are found uncommonly, while the others become more difficult in the opposite version which instead are found very rarely. For example, the Helix and Claw Fossils have an easier chance to be found if the Skull Fossil is available, or the Dome and Root Fossil if the Armor Fossil is available. The Old Amber is the only Fossil whose ratio remains unchanged regardless of version as it will always be found rarely.<br />
<br />
In [[Johto]]'s [[Generation IV]] games, the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Helix Fossil|Helix]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils as well as the [[Old Amber]] can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s outside [[Ruins of Alph]]. [[Root Fossil|Root]]{{sup/4|SS}} and [[Claw Fossil|Claw]]{{sup/4|HG}} Fossils can be found randomly by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the [[Cliff Cave]] after entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Fossils found in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} can be revived as level 20 Pokémon at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]]. The Skull and Armor Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon revived from them, must be transferred from Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum.<br />
<br />
In this generation, Fossils are considered to be normal items. As such, they can be held by a Pokémon and traded to another game.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]] has a Cranidos, while his father, [[Byron]], has a {{p|Bastiodon}}. {{p|Rampardos}} and Shieldon are also used by two minor Trainers. After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be spotted with other Trainers.<br />
<br />
As in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, [[Brock]] has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} on his team in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and also uses a Rampardos in rematches. [[Lance]] continues to have Aerodactyl on his initial team, but it is not used in rematches.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation V]]===<br />
{{game|Black and White|s}} once again brought a new set of Fossils to the Pokémon world:<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{unova color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{unova color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{water color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Cover Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|564|Tirtouga}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Plume Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|566|Archen}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{rock color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{rock color dark}}|Cover Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{flying color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{flying color dark}}|Plume Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
These Fossils can be revived into level 25 Pokémon using a machine in the [[Nacrene City]] Museum.<br />
<br />
In Pokémon Black and White, one of these two Fossils will be given away by a person in [[Relic Castle]], similar to how the Helix and Dome Fossils are originally obtained in the Kanto-based games.<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|sequels]] to these games, the Fossils are instead given away by former Gym Leader [[Lenora]].<br />
<br />
In [[Chargestone Cave]], a couple of {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s battle with a {{p|Tirtouga}} and an {{p|Archen}}. In Black 2 and White 2, two {{tc|Backpacker}}s on {{rt|1|Unova}} also use teams entirely made out of Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
The two final evolutions of the Fossil Pokémon released in this generation ({{p|Carracosta}} and {{p|Archeops}}) are used by [[N]] in the final battle against him in [[N's Castle]].<br />
<br />
After defeating [[Ghetsis]]{{sup/5|BW}} or [[Iris]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}, Fossils of previous generations will be given out by a {{tc|Worker}} in [[Twist Mountain]], with one being given out per day.<br />
<br />
While it cannot be revived via Fossil, {{p|Genesect}} is known to have been created by [[Team Plasma]] by reviving a prehistoric Pokémon and upgrading it by attaching a cannon to its back.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VI]]===<br />
Two Fossil Pokémon were introduced for {{g|X and Y}}.<br />
<br />
{| class="roundy" style="margin:auto; text-align:center; background:#{{kalos color dark}}; border:5px solid #{{kalos color}}"<br />
|-<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Jaw Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|696|Tyrunt}}<br />
| width="120px" style="background:#{{rock color}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | [[File:Bag Sail Fossil Sprite.png]] →{{MSP/8|698|Amaura}}<br />
|-<br />
| style="background:#{{dragon color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{dragon color dark}}|Jaw Fossil}}<br />
| style="background:#{{ice color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" | {{color2|{{ice color dark}}|Sail Fossil}}<br />
|}<br />
<br />
One of the two Fossils is given to the player in [[Glittering Cave]] and can be restored at the research facility in [[Ambrette Town]]. The resulting Pokémon are level 20. The [[Old Amber]] can also be collected after this by smashing [[breakable rock]]s in the back of Glittering Cave.<br />
<br />
Gym Leader [[Grant]] uses {{p|Tyrunt}} and {{p|Amaura}} and their evolved forms in subsequent rematches. Champion [[Diantha]] also uses {{p|Tyrantrum}} and {{p|Aurorus}}.<br />
<br />
After entering the [[Hall of Fame]], the player can return to Glittering Cave and smash rocks to find the Skull, Armor, Plume, and Cover Fossils, regardless of version, as well as Root and Claw Fossils{{sup/6|X}} or Dome and Helix Fossils{{sup/6|Y}}.<br />
<br />
In Hoenn's Generation VI games, the Root and Claw Fossil are collected and restored the same way as the original Ruby and Sapphire games. Restoring Fossils can be done at the second floor of the [[Devon Corporation]]. After battling {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/6|AS}}, a number of other Fossils can be collected by smashing [[breakable rock]]s at the [[Mirage spot]]s. While the Old Amber can be found regardless of version, the Dome, Armor, and Plume Fossils are exclusive to Omega Ruby and the Helix, Skull, and Cover Fossils are exclusive to Alpha Sapphire. The Jaw and Sail Fossils are absent from both games, so either they, or the Pokémon that are revived from them, must be transferred from X and Y.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VII]]===<br />
Generation VII introduces no new Fossils, but the player may obtain most of the previous Fossils depending on the game. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], only the Fossils from Sinnoh and Unova are available. Their location is at [[Olivia]]'s jewelry shop in [[Konikoni City]], where the player can buy a [[Skull Fossil]] and a [[Cover Fossil]] in Pokémon Sun or an [[Armor Fossil]] and a [[Plume Fossil]] in Pokémon Moon. <br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], this has been expanded to include more of the previous Fossils which were absent from the original games. The [[Helix Fossil|Helix]], [[Claw Fossil|Claw]], and [[Jaw Fossil|Jaw]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Skull and Cover Fossils in Ultra Sun, and the [[Dome Fossil|Dome]], [[Root Fossil|Root]], and [[Sail Fossil|Sail]] Fossils may be purchased alongside the Armor and Plume Fossils in Ultra Moon. Additionally, unlike the original games, any of these fossils can now also be obtained from Isle Aphun at [[Poké Pelago]] regardless of version. This is done from conducting a Rare Treasure-Hunting expedition (or an Interesting Item-Hunting expedition once the island has reached Development Level 3), where any of these Fossils have a very rare chance of being obtained. <br />
<br />
The Fossils can be revived at the Fossil Restoration Center on {{rt|8|Alola}}. The newly revived Pokémon come at level 15.<br />
<br />
Unlike the other Fossils, the [[Old Amber]] is unobtainable in [[Alola]]. Instead, an {{p|Aerodactyl}} can be obtained at [[Seafolk Village]] as a [[gift Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
Several minor Trainers use some of these Fossil Pokémon or their evolved forms as part of their teams. In addition for Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon only, [[Olivia]] uses both {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Anorith}} during her grand trial. Later, when the player faces Olivia at the {{al|Pokémon League}}, they have evolved into {{p|Cradily}} and {{p|Armaldo}} respectively as part of her upgraded team.<br />
<br />
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], all the Kanto Fossils are obtainable in the same locations as they were in Generations I and III. In addition, more of them can be found on the second floor of [[Cerulean Cave]], where random rare items spawn occasionally.<br />
<br />
===[[Generation VIII]]===<br />
Generation VIII introduced four new Fossils, the most of any generation. Reviving Fossils in {{g|Sword and Shield}} is a much different process than it has been in the past generations. Two completely different Fossils must be combined, by [[Cara Liss]] on {{rt|6|Galar}}, to form a chimeric Fossil Pokémon. These Pokémon all start at [[level]] 10, their [[Gender unknown|genders are unknown]], and [[No Eggs Discovered (Egg Group)|cannot breed]]. These are also the only Fossil Pokémon that are not {{type|Rock}}.<br />

|}<br />
<br />
Most previous Fossil Pokémon can be encountered in the {{pkmn2|wild}} in the [[Crown Tundra]], often as [[wanderer]]s, with possible exceptions being {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Omastar}} (exclusive to Sword), {{p|Kabuto}} and {{p|Kabutops}} (exclusive to Shield), and [[Generation IV]] Fossil Pokémon (unavailable in both versions). While no attention is brought to the reason for their presence as wild Pokémon in modern times, with most of their [[Pokédex]] entries in Sword and Shield either mentioning they were revived from Fossils or glossing over their status as Fossil Pokémon entirely, {{p|Omanyte}}'s entry in Pokémon Sword specifically mentions specimens that either escaped or were [[Released Pokémon|released]] after their revival. The only other clearly stated case is {{p|Kabuto}}, whose Pokédex entries have been mentioning its status as a {{wp|living fossil}} akin to {{p|Relicanth}} since [[Generation II]]. Data for their respective Fossils still exists in the games, but they cannot be obtained.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, it is for the most part the same as {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, with only the Fossils from the first four generations available, with Skull Fossils being exclusive to Brilliant Diamond and Armor Fossils being exclusive to Shining Pearl. They can be dug up in the Underground's replacement, the [[Grand Underground]]. Unlike the originals, the Fossils from the first three Generations are available earlier; the requirement for them to appear in the Grand Underground is to defeat or capture {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/8|SP}} on the [[Spear Pillar]], rather than obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]. Like in the originals, [[Roark]] uses a {{p|Cranidos}} and his father [[Byron]] uses a {{p|Bastiodon}}, both as their highest-leveled Pokémon. {{p|Rampardos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} are used by a few Trainers, and the former evolves from Roark's Cranidos in the [[rematch]] with him, which can be done once per day after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtaining the National Pokédex. In said rematch, Roark additionally uses an {{p|Aerodactyl}} and an {{p|Armaldo}}, two other Fossil Pokémon.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Fossils do not exist at all, in the game's coding or otherwise. Rather, only {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Shieldon}} can be obtained, and they can be found as rare spawns in [[space-time distortion]]s in the [[Coronet Highlands]].<br />
<br />
===[[Generation IX]]===<br />
There are no new Fossils to acquire in {{2v2|Scarlet|Violet}}, and thus no new Fossil Pokémon, and similar to in Generation II there is no way to obtain old Fossils and the Pokemon therein, rendering all previous Fossil Pokémon unavailable.<br />

[[File:Quest Fossil.png|thumb|100px|A Fossil in Pokémon Quest]]<br />
A Fossil is an ingredient that can be used in {{OBP|cooking|Quest}} to attract wild Pokémon in [[Pokémon Quest]].<br />
<br />
====Description====<br />

{{movedescentry|'''{{color2|{{orange color dark}}|Pokémon Quest|Quest}}'''|Hard and small ingredients.}}<br />

<br />
====Acquisition====<br />
Fossil is a possible ingredient that can be obtained by completing [[Tumblecube Island|expeditions]]. It can also be obtained randomly by recycling [[Power Stone]]s.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
===Main series===<br />
[[File:Dome Fossil anime.png|thumb|250px|Dome Fossil in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]<br />
[[File:Sunkern leaf fossil.png|thumb|250px|A fossilized {{p|Sunkern}} leaf in the anime]]<br />
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, some Fossil Pokémon are in fact, not extinct, but have simply been hibernating underground for millions of years, as seen in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', ''[[EP089|Shell Shock!]]'', and ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]''. However {{Gary}} has used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[HS15|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl!]]''. Unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}, where Fossils of ancient Pokémon are resurrected into the skeletons of the prehistoric using a machine that recreates the missing organs that had decomposed away from the genes extracted in the remains, this Aerodactyl was in fact completely revived from a Fossil that was fully preserved inside of an Old Amber for millions of years and thus still had the memories of its past life.<br />
<br />
[[Butler]] tried to create a {{p|Groudon}} for [[Team Magma]] in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'' from a fossilized remnant, but the experiment failed and Butler left Team Magma. [[Professor Proctor]] used research to directly revive Fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[AG102|Where's Armaldo?]]''.<br />
<br />
[[Roark]], as he does in the {{pkmn|games}}, has a Cranidos which evolves into a {{TP|Roark|Rampardos}}. Roark and his team retrieve Fossils from the [[Oreburgh Mine]] and give them to the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]]. The museum's director [[Dr. Kenzo]] uses the Fossils for their Fossil revitalization program. Roark's Pokémon, as well as several other Fossil Pokémon revived by the Fossil Restorer Machine, appear in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]'', and ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]''. [[Byron]], Roark's father, also has quite a collection in [[Canalave Gym|his Gym]]. This includes the Fossil Pokémon {{p|Kabuto}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Omastar}}, {{p|Cradily}}, and {{p|Armaldo}}, as well as a giant Claw Fossil. He also kept a {{p|Sunkern}} leaf Fossil that Roark found when he was a child.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW014|A Night in the Nacrene City Museum!]]'', a {{p|Kabuto}} Fossil was first seen chasing [[Hawes]], as he claimed it to be doing, but was later seen safely placed in a display case. Hawes later explained what it was to the trio. It was later revealed that the {{p|Yamask}} in the Nacrene City Museum was using its move {{m|Psychic}} to make the Dome Fossil float and chase after Hawes after he put its mask in a display case, thinking that it was a replica Yamask mask given to him as a gift from the company that made a {{p|Cofagrigus}} replica after purchasing it from them for the museum.<br />
<br />
[[Lenora]] gave a Plume Fossil to [[Professor Juniper]] and [[Fennel]] prior to ''[[BW036|Archeops In The Modern World!]]''. They successfully resurrected a female {{p|Archen}} from the Fossil using {{p|Musharna}}'s dream energy. With the help of {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Tranquill}}, Archen learned how to fly and then evolved into {{p|Archeops}}.<br />
<br />
In ''[[BW075|A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1]]'', {{TRT}} stole a Cover Fossil from [[Ferris]]. [[Dr. Zager]] revived it into a {{p|Tirtouga}} as part of a plot to open a Time Gate beneath [[Twist Mountain]], but the Tirtouga subsequently escaped, evolved into {{p|Carracosta}} and returned to the past through the Time Gate in [[BW076|the next episode]].<br />
<br />
{{an|Kiawe}} found two Fossils in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'', during the [[Poké Ride|Stoutland Search]] treasure hunt set up for Ash and his classmates by [[Olivia]]. On the first round, he found a Skull Fossil, and on the second one, he found a Plume Fossil.<br />
<br />
[[Goh]] found an Old Amber in ''[[JN038|Restore and Renew!]]'' during a Fossil excavation. It was later revived into an {{TP|Goh|Aerodactyl}} and caught by him.<br />
<br />
In ''[[JN050|A Pinch of This, a Pinch of That!]]'', Ash, Goh, and [[Chloe]] traveled to [[Galar]] to dig up Fossils in the [[Wild Area]]. With the help of [[Cara Liss]] and [[Bray Zenn]], they found four Fossils and revived them into a {{AP|Dracovish}} and an {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Arctozolt}}, which Ash and Goh, respectively, later caught.<br />
<br />
===Pokémon Origins===<br />
[[File:Super Nerd PO.png|thumb|250px|Dome and Helix Fossils in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]<br />
The Dome and Helix Fossils were seen briefly in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', being hogged by a {{tc|Super Nerd}} whom {{OBP|Red|Origins}} encountered on [[Mt. Moon]].<br />
<br />
In ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]'', Red was seen using a {{p|Kabutops}} in his battle against [[Giovanni]], presumably revived from a Dome Fossil. Since Red is mentioned to have caught all 150 [[Generation I]] Pokémon (excluding {{p|Mew}}) by the time of ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'', it means that he has also obtained the other Kanto Fossil Pokémon, presumably also revived from Fossils. As {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} was mentioned to have collected 148 Pokémon, it is likely that he had also collected all Kanto Fossil Pokémon.<br />

[[File:Old Amber revive.png|150px|right|thumb|{{p|Aerodactyl}} being revived from [[Old Amber]] in [[Blaine]]'s lab]]<br />
===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, Lance and Brock both have Fossil Pokémon, just as in the games. Misty also temporarily has an {{p|Omanyte}}, but she gives this to {{adv|Yellow}}. In addition, {{adv|Red}} uses [[Blaine]]'s laboratory to revive an [[Aero]]dactyl. In [[Hoenn]], {{adv|Ruby}} fights a revived {{p|Lileep}} and an {{p|Anorith}} at [[Professor Cozmo]]'s laboratory in [[Fallarbor Town]]. In [[Sinnoh]], [[Roark]] has a {{p|Cranidos}} like in the games, and [[Byron|his father]] a [[Don|Shieldon]], which he later gives to {{adv|Diamond}}. In [[Unova]], [[N]] had an {{p|Archeops}}, which he released, and {{adv|Black}} has a [[Costa|Carracosta]], which was owned by [[Marshal]] as a {{p|Tirtouga}}. {{adv|Blake}} also has a {{p|Kabutops}}. In [[Kalos]], [[Grant]] has an {{p|Aurorus}} and a {{p|Tyrantrum}}. In [[Galar]], [[Marvin]] obtained a {{p|Dracovish}} after saving it from several [[Macro Cosmos]] employees.<br />

==In the TCG==<br />
[[File:UnidentifiedFossilUltraPrism134.jpg|thumb|250px|The {{TCG ID|Ultra Prism|Unidentified Fossil|134}} from the Sun & Moon Series]]<br />
All Fossils have appeared in the TCG at one point or another, usually being released in the same expansion as the Pokémon which are revived from them, and being released as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s. Initially, only the {{TCG|Mysterious Fossil}} card existed, which could be evolved into any of the three Generation I Fossil Pokémon; however, its use was eventually discontinued in favor of individual {{TCG|Dome Fossil}}, {{TCG|Helix Fossil}}, and {{TCG|Old Amber}} cards to match the {{TCG|Claw Fossil|Claw}}, {{TCG|Root Fossil|Root}}, {{TCG|Skull Fossil|Skull}}, {{TCG|Armor Fossil|Armor}}, {{TCG|Cover Fossil|Cover}}, {{TCG|Plume Fossil|Plume}}, {{TCG|Jaw Fossil|Jaw}}, and {{TCG|Sail Fossil|Sail}} Fossil cards. {{TCG|Ultra Prism}} brought the return of a shared Trainer card which could evolve into any Fossil Pokémon released during the Sun & Moon Series, this time known as {{TCG|Unidentified Fossil}}.<br />
<br />
In addition, there are some other Fossil (related) cards, like {{TCG|Buried Fossil}} from {{TCG|Skyridge}} (the only non-Trainer Fossil cards, which is a {{TCG|Colorless}} {{e|Colorless}} type Pokémon instead); {{TCG|Fossil Egg}} from {{TCG|Neo Discovery}}; and {{TCG|Holon Fossil}} from {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}.<br />
<br />
The following is a list of Fossil items unique to the Trading Card Game, with cards played as {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} listed first. For listings of cards corresponding to specific game Fossils, see their individual item pages.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* The [[Generation I]] Fossil Pokémon are the only {{type|Rock}} Pokémon of that generation that are not part {{type|Ground}}.<br />
* {{p|Cranidos}} and {{p|Rampardos}} are the only Fossil Pokémon that are pure-Rock type.<br />
* {{p|Tirtouga}} and {{p|Carracosta}} are the only Fossil Pokémon to have Rock as their secondary type.<br />
* {{p|Archen}} and {{p|Archeops}} are the only Fossil Pokémon without Hidden Abilities.<br />
* {{p|Aerodactyl}} is the only Fossil Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]].<br />
* [[Generation VIII]] is the only generation to have Fossil Pokémon that are not Rock types, are gender unknown, and are incapable of {{pkmn|breeding}}.<br />
* The Fossilized Drake and Fossilized Fish appear to have an inventory sprite mix up, as the Fossilized Fish offers the "-vish" head for {{p|Arctovish}} and {{p|Dracovish}}, but the item itself looks more like the Draco- body, with the same being said for the Fossilized Drake looking like the "-vish" head but offers instead the "Draco-" body for Dracovish and {{p|Dracozolt}}.<br />
* Fossil Pokémon are featured in a Japan-only nationwide traveling exhibition, Pokémon Fossil Museum (Japanese: ポケモン化石博物館). Visitors can learn about the real-life prehistoric animals that inspired the designs of Fossil Pokémon and compare between them, and view conceptual artwork depicting the skeletal anatomy of certain Fossil Pokémon, as well as real life replicas of said skeletons.<ref>Official Pokémon Fossil Museum site [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/index_en.html (English)], [https://www.kahaku.go.jp/pokemon/ (Japanese)] </ref><br />

'''Jasmine''' (Japanese: '''ミカン''' ''Mikan'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Olivine City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Olivine Gym]]. She [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and she gives the {{Badge|Mineral}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her in {{pkmn|battle}}. She also appears in [[Sinnoh]] to give Trainers {{HM|07|Waterfall}} and to compete in Sinnoh's {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s.<br />
<br />
==In the core series==<br />
Jasmine appears in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} as the Gym Leader of the [[Olivine Gym]]. Her title in these games is "The Steel-Clad Defense Girl." She also appears in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, and [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|their remakes]].<br />
<br />
Jasmine is a shy girl who has trouble speaking. She is compassionate, and when [[Amphy]], the {{p|Ampharos}} in the [[Glitter Lighthouse]], falls ill, Jasmine looks after it. Amphy will only take the medicine the {{player}} brings from Jasmine.<br />
<br />
When the player first meets Jasmine, she will refuse to battle, as she is busy caring for Amphy. She requests that a [[Secret Medicine|special medicine]] be brought from the [[Cianwood City]] pharmacy. When it is retrieved, she uses it to heal the Ampharos and returns to the Gym afterwards. In battle, she uses the newly-discovered {{type|Steel}} Pokémon, but a {{tc|Gentleman}} in the Lighthouse says she used to train {{type|Rock}} Pokémon such as {{p|Onix}}. Once defeated, she will yield the {{Badge|Mineral}} and {{tm|23|Iron Tail}}.<br />
<br />
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Jasmine can be fought multiple times in [[Saffron City]]'s [[Fighting Dojo]]. She will use a stronger team here but will not appear until her [[Pokégear]] phone number has been obtained at the Olivine City diner. She goes there every afternoon, between 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM, and will afterwards travel to [[Kanto]] for battles on Wednesday afternoons. After defeating all of the [[Kanto]] Gym Leaders and exchanging numbers at the diner, visiting Jasmine at her Gym in Olivine will cause her to offer to make a trade with the player, although the player will need to talk to Jasmine a second time because she will be nervous about it. She offers a {{p|Steelix}} nicknamed Rusty that holds a [[Soothe Bell]]. She will accept any Pokémon in exchange, being the first in-game trade where this is possible. Rusty isn't the same as her battling Steelix, as Rusty is male whereas the other is female.<br />
<br />
[[File:Jasmine Pt.png|thumb|Jasmine in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}]]<br />
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, and their respective [[remake]]s, {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, Jasmine is staying in [[Sunyshore City]] for a while, which she says reminds her of home with [[Vista Lighthouse|its lighthouse]] and its location on the sea. She also occasionally enters [[Rank (Contest)|Master Rank]] {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s with her Steelix, [[nickname]]d Rusty. She gives the player [[HM07]]{{sup/4|DPPt}}/[[TM99]]{{sup/8|BDSP}} ({{m|Waterfall}}) after defeating the eighth [[Gym Leader]], [[Volkner]]. A conversation with [[Erika]] in HeartGold and SoulSilver would seem to suggest Jasmine's appearance in [[Sinnoh]] occurs after the plot of the [[Johto]] games.<br />

===Main series===<br />
====History====<br />
=====[[Original series]]=====<br />
[[File:Jasmine Johto.png|thumb|250px|Jasmine in the [[original series]]]]<br />
Jasmine debuted in ''[[EP208|Fight for the Light!]]'', where she interrupted {{Ash}}'s [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} because her apprentice [[Janina]] was pretending to be the official [[Gym Leader]]. Jasmine went on to dismiss Janina for impersonating her and also covering her {{p|Onix}} in wax to repel normally effective {{t|Water}} attacks. Jasmine apologized to Ash on Janina's behalf and added that she would battle him when her {{p|Ampharos}} was feeling better.<br />
<br />
Ash and {{ashfr}} later visited the [[Glitter Lighthouse|Shining Lighthouse]] and met up with Jasmine, her grandfather {{OBP|Myron|EP208}}, and her Ampharos, [[nickname]]d Sparkle. Later, Jasmine and the others fled the lighthouse after [[James]] had his {{TP|James|Weezing}} smother them with its thick {{m|Smog}}. {{TRT}} then kidnapped Sparkle, and incidentally {{an|Brock}}, though Janina and her Onix managed to rescue the pair, after which Ash sent the trio blasting off. After seeing Janina's heroism, Jasmine sent her young apprentice along with Ash and his friends to collect some medicine for Sparkle from [[Cianwood City]].<br />
<br />
In ''[[EP209|Machoke, Machoke Man!]]'', Ash and the others arrived in Cianwood, and Janina then took an express service back to Olivine City to deliver the medicine. Janina later called Ash to inform him that Jasmine was still not up to battling because she was concerned for Sparkle. Following [[Chuck]]'s suggestion, the group took a detour through the [[Whirl Islands]] and later returned to Olivine City in ''[[EP223|Throwing in the Noctowl]]'' for Ash's match.<br />
<br />
Jasmine and her {{TP|Jasmine|Steelix}} helped Ash recover his {{AP|Pikachu}} from Team Rocket before sending them blasting off in ''[[EP224|Nerves of Steelix!]]''. Ash and Jasmine later had their Gym battle. Though Pikachu defeated Jasmine's {{p|Magnemite}} in the first round, he was left exhausted and was later defeated by Steelix. In the final round, {{AP|Cyndaquil}} faced off against Steelix. The round proved to be difficult for both sides, but Cyndaquil eventually claimed victory after it used {{m|Flamethrower}} to transform Steelix's {{m|Sandstorm}} attack into a powerful {{wp|fire whirl}}. Jasmine subsequently gave Ash his sixth Badge, the {{Badge|Mineral}}.<br />
<br />
She later reappeared in a flashback in ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]''.<br />
<br />
=====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''=====<br />
[[File:Jasmine Sinnoh.png|thumb|250px|Jasmine in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'']]<br />
After a long absence, Jasmine reappeared in [[Sunyshore City]], wearing her [[Generation IV]] outfit, in ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]''. Ash and his friends were surprised to see her again as she watched {{si|Kenny}} practice some of his [[Contest combination]]s. Jasmine explained that she was traveling around and studying [[Contest Battle]]s to become stronger. After {{EF|Flint}} rescued the group from Team Rocket, Jasmine asked him for a battle and he accepted. Jasmine's battle style hadn't changed much, however, and Flint's {{p|Infernape}} knocked out her Steelix with a {{m|Flare Blitz}}.<br />
<br />
Jasmine then joined Ash and his friends back at the [[Pokémon Center]], where she told {{an|Dawn}} about her fears about being a Gym Leader and explained that it was important for a person to follow their own path. The following day, Jasmine announced that while she enjoyed her {{pkmn|journey}}, she would return to her position as the Olivine Gym Leader to continue her {{pkmn|training}}.<br />
<br />
====Character====<br />
Jasmine is typically gentle and soft-spoken, though in {{pkmn|battle}}, she is markedly more confident and somewhat aggressive. In ''[[EP224|Nerves of Steelix!]]'', she was not afraid to take on {{TRT}} and was quite vocal in letting {{Ash}} know that she wouldn't go easy on him during battle. Jasmine holds herself to account in her role as [[Olivine City]]'s [[Gym Leader]] and also expects these standards to be upheld by her apprentices. She is, however, very mindful of her limitations and will seek time away from her Gym Leader duties to collect herself.<br />
<br />
Her battle strategy is simply to attack her opponent's Pokémon. Jasmine's handling of {{TP|Jasmine|Steelix}} in ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]'' was much the same as her strategy during her battle against Ash in ''Nerves of Steelix!''. In both cases, she was reliant on Steelix's {{m|Iron Tail}} and {{m|Sandstorm}}. She, however, hopes to implement changes like adding offensive techniques to improve her skills as Gym Leader.<br />

===GOTCHA!===<br />
Jasmine briefly appeared in [[GOTCHA!]].<br />
<br />
==In the manga==<br />
===Pokémon Adventures===<br />
[[File:Janine Jasmine Adventures.png|thumb|230px|Jasmine in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]<br />
====History====<br />
====={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}=====<br />
Jasmine debuted in ''[[PS107|Gligar Glide]]'', being called by the [[Day-Care Couple|Day-Care Man]]. She was told to come over, as the Egg her two {{p|Togetic}} produced hatched into {{adv|Gold}}'s {{p|Togepi}}, [[Togebo]]. As she passed through [[Ecruteak City]] on her way there, an earthquake caused by [[Team Rocket]] ravaged the area. She managed to escape most of the chaos by escaping to the [[Bell Tower]], but the shaking caused her to get caught in the rubble. Using [[Amphy]] as a distress signal, she caught the attention of both {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}}, who arrived to help. They managed to rescue her before the tower collapsed and sent Jasmine off to safety on Amphy's back. Unaware of the identities of her saviors, Jasmine helped with getting Ecruteak City back to normal.<br />
<br />
In ''[[PS113|Delibird Delivery - 1]]'', Jasmine appeared in [[Professor Elm]]'s fantasy when informing Gold that the [[Masked Man]] may be a Gym Leader.<br />
<br />
Jasmine was seen again in ''[[PS152|Buzz Off, Butterfree!]]'', where she supervised the rebuilding of the Tin Tower in [[Morty]]'s absence. She soon met {{adv|Yellow}} and [[Wilton]], where Yellow was able to put out a fire at the [[Burned Tower]] and free the {{adv|Legendary beasts}} that were imprisoned inside.<br />
<br />
At the [[Indigo Plateau]], Jasmine arrives with her fellow Johto Gym Leaders to participate in an exhibition tournament for the Pokémon League against the Kanto Gym Leaders. In the first round, she faces off against the [[Pewter City]] Gym Leader, [[Brock]]. She surprises everyone by using {{p|Steelix}}, a new Pokémon that no one had known about. Since he knew nothing about Steelix or even its type, Brock is eventually defeated. {{adv|Professor Oak}} reveals to everyone the discovery of the new {{type|Steel}}, in which Jasmine specializes. When the Masked Man attacks the Pokémon League, Jasmine and the other Gym Leaders combat his army of mind-controlled {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. The fight takes them to the [[Magnet Train]], which is used as a diversion to get the Gym Leaders away from the stadium. After the Masked Man is defeated, Jasmine returned to her usual duties as a Gym Leader.<br />
<br />
====={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}=====<br />
In ''[[PS351|Perturbed by Pachirisu]]'', Jasmine makes a cameo appearance. She is seen together with [[Fantina]], on their way to the Master Rank {{pkmn|Super Contest}} in [[Hearthome City]].<br />
<br />
====={{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}=====<br />
It is revealed that Jasmine left to the [[Sinnoh]] region so that she may partake in Pokémon Contests and refuses to come back until she had mastered them.<br />

[[File:Jasmine Golden Boys.png|thumb|200px|Jasmine in Pokémon Gold and Silver: The Golden Boys]]<br />
[[File:Young Jasmine Golden Boys.png|thumb|left|220px|Jasmine when she was younger]]<br />
Jasmine first appeared in ''[[GB17|A Spectacular Battle To Save Ampharos]]'' where she wanted {{GnB|Gold}} to lend her his {{TP|Gold|Croconaw}}. She wanted his Croconaw because she needed to get to [[Cianwood City]] to get medicine to cure her [[Amphy|Ampharos]]'s sickness. Jasmine, Gold, and {{GnB|Chris}} went around Olivine City to find a big {{type|Water}} Pokémon. They had no luck though. She found a {{p|Gyarados}} fighting a {{p|Wartortle}} in the middle of a busy street.<br />
<br />
Even though it belonged to {{GnB|Black}}, Gold wanted to borrow it and they had a battle. Black chose Gyarados as the Pokémon to battle with against [[Gold's Pikachu]]. Jasmine tried convincing Black to not use Gyarados but Black retorted by saying that nothing is fair in a real battle. When Pikachu stood no chance against Gyarados, Jasmine took Gold's place. Using her {{TP|Jasmine|Steelix}}, it finished Gyarados with one {{m|Iron Tail}}. As Gyarados got defeated, the group was unable to use it.<br />
<br />
The town volunteered to build a raft for the group to use while the captain provided a map for them to go to Cianwood City. As they got on, it was unable to carry them as it can only carry two people. Jasmine decided to go there by herself but Gold and Chris were willing to go there instead. Jasmine stayed behind to look after Amphy while Gold and Chris went on to Cianwood City.<br />
<br />
Gold and Chris got the medicine. They went to the messenger Pidgey shop to send the medicine to Jasmine.<br />
<br />
Later, Jasmine and the citizens of Olivine City came to Gold's rescue while the [[Black Tyranitar]] was on a rampage.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Jasmine's Japanese Leader title is {{tt|鉄壁ガードの女の子|Iron wall-guarded girl}}.<br />
* In [[Generation III]], a Jasmine lookalike, along with [[Whitney]] and [[Pryce]]'s, can be seen as an audience member in a [[Pokémon Contest]].<br />
* When rematched in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the [[level]]s of Jasmine's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are the highest of all of the [[Johto]] [[Gym Leader]]s, despite her typically being the sixth Gym Leader. Her Steelix reaches level 62, while the maximum of any other Johto Gym Leader is level 60.<br />
* As seen in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Jasmine's [[Trainer ID number]] is 26491.<br />
** She shares her Trainer ID number with an NPC in the [[Generation II]] games named Kim who offers an {{p|Aerodactyl}} for a {{p|Chansey}} on {{rt|14|Kanto}}.<br />
* Jasmine is the first Trainer known to have changed her type specialization overall, the second being [[Bede]], who used to train {{type|Psychic}} before becoming the {{type|Fairy}} expert he currently is.<br />
* In all the [[Johto]]-based games, Jasmine appears before Pryce in the [[Badge]] case, but her Steelix's [[level]] is higher than the levels of all of Pryce's Pokémon.<br />

<div>== Likeness? ==<br />
<br />
How do we know if that character from the new movie has a hairstyle that resembles Cresselia's head. There has to be like, proof for it. A picture of her, maybe?[[User:BlueJirachi|BlueJirachi]] 19:03, 4 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Her page says that her hair is styled to look like the infinity symbol and the only resemblance to Cresselia is the color... ~[[User:SaturnYoshi|<font color="midnightblue" face="comic sans ms">'''$aturn'''</font>]][[User:SaturnYoshi|<font color="green" face="comic sans ms">'''¥oshi'''</font>]] <sup>[[User talk:SaturnYoshi|<font color="maroon">THE VOICES</font>]]</sup> 19:15, 4 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
<br />

== So... when is Cresselia's Platinum Pokedex entry going to be updated? ==<br />
<br />
I'm asking since Cresselia's pokedex entry for Platinum has gone untranslated for far too long, IMO, and really needs a translation, quick. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 22:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
:you have the pokedex description? '''[[User:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#008800">h</span><span style="color:#000000">fc</span>]][[User talk:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#000000">2</span><span style="color:#008800">X</span>]]''' 02:36, 28 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
::have the pokedex description? I don't even own Platinum (even if I did, I can't read Japanese (the best i can do is basic Hiragina, basic Katakana, and basic romanji.). I was wondering if you guys could get it. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 02:41, 28 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::Now that it's on the Japanese branch I'll translate it. That's the only thing I've been waiting for...although I bet most of them are up by now.

== Special Abilities ==<br />
"She can also heal psychological scars if the sufferer looks at her."<br />
Where was this stated?

== Blizzard? ==<br />
<br />
Can't Cresselia learn Blizzard by TM? I gave mine Blizzard. O_o But it's not on/in the moveset. --[[User:Sivart345|<span style="color:#4DC000">Sivart</span>]][[User talk:Sivart345|<span style="color:#00FF60">3</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Sivart345|<span style="color:#00FFA0">4</span>]][[User:Firestorm|<span style="color:#7FFFF7">'''5'''</span>]] 06:01, 7 February 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Gender ==<br />
<br />
Is it really female? I thought Legendaries were genderless. --[[User talk:Venomoth|☯ ]][[User:Venomoth|*Ɣℯ№ӎօṫհ*]][[User talk:Venomoth| ☯]] 15:41, 8 October 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Necessary? ==<br />
<br />
Is it really necessary to put that she can learn Psychic at a higher level than other Pokémon? [[User:FrankTheTank000|FrankTheTank000]] 19:25, 19 June 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== name origin ==<br />
<br />
I think ''elia'' may just be a feminine ending [[User:0danmaster0|0danmaster0]] ([[User talk:0danmaster0|talk]]) 15:25, 29 July 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Platinum Sprite Trivia ==<br />
<br />
Would it be a good idea if I noted that Cresselia's static sprite has the colors of the arc on its back scrambled? In all official artwork, the thing on its back goes from darker to lighter from bottom to top, but in her sprite on Platinum, the darkest stripe is in the middle and the lightest stripe is at the bottom? [[User:ArtistKyurem|ArtistKyurem]] ([[User talk:ArtistKyurem|talk]]) 21:30, 21 December 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Stat set ==<br />
<br />
I believe that in Pokemon: Platinum, Cresselia's Nature and IVs are set when you encounter it at Full Moon Island, despite the fact that you don't actually engage it in battle. I believe this because after saving before going to the island, capturing it, then reseting, the stats and nature changed while, after visiting the island, THEN saving, capturing Cresselia, and reseting, the stats and nature remained the same. Does anyone else have evidence to support this and, if so, is it worth mentioning in the main article? [[User:Legionaireb|Legionaireb]] ([[User talk:Legionaireb|talk]]) 06:47, 28 December 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== "Heavenly maiden who created the Milky Way." ==<br />
<br />
In Cresselia's Hisuian Pokédex entry it states: "''Cresselia is reminiscent of the crescent moon. It leaves a brilliant line of light in its wake as it flies across the night sky. I daresay '''it resembles the heavenly maiden who created the Milky Way'''.''" I think that this reference to a "heavenly maiden who created the Milky Way" might be a nod to Cresselia's real-world origin. I have found 2 myths that fit the criteria of a maiden creating the Milky Way which I will link here: {{wp|Milky Way (mythology)#Khoisan|Khoisan Milky Way myth}} and {{wp|Milky Way (mythology)#Finno-Ugric|Finnish and Estonian Milky Way maiden myth}}. I think that there might be enough evidence of Cresselia being based on one of these myths to put it in the "Origin" section of this article. [[User:Mew07777|Mew07777]] ([[User talk:Mew07777|talk]]) 02:54, 13 February 2022 (UTC)<br />
::More likely a reference to the Shepherd and the Weaver, one of many Tennin-type Swan Maiden tales from East Asia.03:07, 26 January 2023 (UTC)</div>Kumori Satosukehttps://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Talk:Shedinja_(Pok%C3%A9mon)&diff=3659285Talk:Shedinja (Pokémon)2023-01-23T15:14:04Z<p>Kumori Satosuke: /* Possible Name Origin: Shedim */</p>

<div>== HP ==<br />
<br />
Does the HP of Shedinja ever raise above one with leveling? {{unsigned|Viridis.net@gmail.com}}<br />
<br />
Nope. It stays 1 forever. --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] 19:07, 7 September 2006 (UTC)<br />
<br />
The article says the only way to know Shedinja's HP IV is finding out its "brother" Ninjask IV, but couldn't we figure it out by knowing Hidden Power type and power? [[User:Diby esp|Gabriel Rocha (Diby esp)]] 23:49, 2 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:I think you are confusing {{stat|HP}} and {{m|Hidden Power|HP}}. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 23:52, 2 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
::But isn't {{m|Hidden Power|HP}} determined by IVs such as {{stat|HP}}'s? [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|You enter a poorly lit room...]] 23:57, 2 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::{{m|Hidden Power}}'s type and power depend on every stat IV. If you know the Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense and Speed IV, then knowing our Shedinja's Hidden Power type and power would take us to an obvious conclusion of its HP IV, wouldn't it? [[User:Diby esp|Gabriel Rocha (Diby esp)]] 00:43, 3 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::No, it wouldn't. The formula for calculating the strength and type of Hidden Power relies only on the IVs modulo 2 and modulo 4. For example, if you could change a Shedinja's HP IV from 1 to 29, the type and power of Hidden Power would not change. This is because 1 and 29 are congruent modulo 2 and modulo 4. For more information, see the "Number of possible Hidden Powers" section of the Hidden Power calculation article. [[User:Ali 247|Ali 247]] 17:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Best type? ==<br />
<br />
Due to Shedinja's ability, Wonder Guard, is there any combined set of types that would leave it immune to damage (not counting status-affecting moves and weather)? [[User:Casmith 789|Casmith 789]] 15:18, 17 August 2007 (UTC)<br />
:Dark/Ghost and Ghost/Dark, the types of {{p|Spiritomb}} and {{p|Sableye}}, combine to have no weakness (except when Foresight, Odor Sleuth, and/or Miracle Eye are used). Neither of them have Wonder Guard, though. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000;">T</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000;">T</span>]][[wp:Echidna|<span style="color:#FF0000;">E</span><span style="color:#0000FF;">chidna</span>]]''' 03:09, 18 August 2007 (UTC)<br />
::Thanks, after finally catching a Spiritomb I figured this out for myself! [[User:Casmith 789|Casmith 789]] 08:46, 8 September 2007 (UTC)<br />
maybe it would be more usable with the Focus Sash?<small>- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Logicalfighter666|Logicalfighter666]] ([[User talk:Logicalfighter666|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Logicalfighter666|contribs]]){{ #if: | &#32;{{{2}}} |}}''</small><br />

*Staryu uses Reflect Type. Shedinja, who is slower than Staryu, uses Mimic on Staryu. The foes do anything but [[faint]] Shedinja<br />
*Staryu switches out into {{p|Sableye}}/{{p|Spiritomb}}. Shedinja uses Mimic-Reflect Type on Spiritomb. The foes do anything but faint Shedinja before it uses Mimic-Reflect Type<br />
*Shedinja is now invincible to any means of direct damage.<br />

== 1 HP trivia: composed of assumptions? ==<br />
<br />
''"If Shedinja obtains Sturdy in Generation V, it can survive any direct attack"''<br />

Impossible because:<br />
* A Pokemon can only have one ability. It cannot have two. For this to happen you would need both Wonder Guard and Sturdy.<br />
* Trivia implies that this will only be possible if the game introduces two abilities for a single Pokemon. <br />
<br />
This is an assumption based on personal thoughts. Its like saying that "if GameFreak introduced this feature, this Pokemon would be the most strongest one in the entire world".

::: I interpreted it wrong when I first read the statement. Before Gen V, sturdy only blocks [[One-hit knockout move]]s which is not just 'any' attack. However on Gen V, when a Pokemon is brought from full HP to 0 HP, instead of being KO'd it has 1HP remaining instead.

== Final Gambit ==<br />
<br />
Is the trivia that {{m|Final Gambit}} does 1 damage when used by Shedinja necessary? Based on the description, it seems kind of obvious. The same thing would happen if a totally random Pokémon had 1 HP left.

== Gen VI Move List ==<br />
<br />
So, here's a section where we can compile the movelist before editing the main page. Just add any move you know and when it learns it. So far, it appears its low-level moves are the same, but it doesn't learn Mind Reader before Lv.20 anymore. Then again, it's possible that it just copied my Nincada's moveset (Fury Swipes, Harden, Leech Life, Sand Attack), I really don't know how move inheritance works with Sheddy.<br />

:Confirmed. You can see in it's Stats section that its maximum HP is 1, even with 252 EVs and an IV of 31, meaning that, no matter what you do, you cannot EV or Super Train a (legitimate) Shedinja in HP.

== Does it have to be a normal Pokéball? ==<br />
<br />
I just tried getting me one, and I had four non-normal Pokéballs varieties in my bag and a extra space in my party and I didn't get a Shedinja. So do you have to have a normal Pokéball or will any ball type do? If not, what prevents it from using up a master ball? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 06:01, 30 December 2013 (UTC)<br />

== Wait, what? ==<br />
<br />
So acordding to this, Shedinja can't learn Hyper Beam of Giga Impact in generation VI.<br />
<br />
Am I seriously supposed to believe that?<br />
<br />
Since when can Pokémon no longer learn a TM in future generations? I can't think of a single situation where that's the case. If anything Pokémon are able to learn TMs it couldn't learn before in future generations.<br />
<br />
Of course there is no way for me to test this as I don't have a Shedinja in X/Y.<br />
<br />
But yeah, I find that odd that according to this page Shedinja can't learn those two moves in the sixth generation, but it is able to learn them in Gen 5 and further back.<br />
<br />
What? [[User:TheBlazikenMaster|Blaze The Movie Fan]] ([[User talk:TheBlazikenMaster|talk]]) 19:43, 1 March 2014 (UTC)<br />
:"No way"? You can always catch a Nincada and evolve it. Anyways, those moves aren't listed just because the list is incomplete, presumably because the user didn't have all TMs.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#AB0909">電</font><font color="#063A73">禅</font>]]<small>[[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#fff" face="Tahoma"><span style="text-shadow:#000 0.2em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Den Zen</span></font>]]</small>''' 19:52, 1 March 2014 (UTC)<br />

== Studies on Shedinja being afflicted by Forest's Curse. ==<br />
<br />
As we all well know, Trick-or-Treat/Forest's Curse actually inserts a third typing onto a Pokémon, right, providing the target doesn't have the types already? So, if it was made Bug/Ghost/Grass, it would obviously affect Wonder Guard. Here's a chart I drew up for that.<br />
<br />
*Normal: 0x<br />
*Fighting: 0x<br />
*Flying: 4x<br />
*Poison: 0x<br />
*Ground: 0x<br />
*Rock: 2x<br />
*Ghost: 2x<br />
*Steel: 0x<br />
*Bug: 0x<br />
<br />
*Fire: 4x<br />
*Water: 0x<br />
*Grass: 0x<br />
*Electric: 0x<br />
*Psychic: 0x<br />
*Ice: 2x<br />
*Dragon: 0x<br />
*Dark: 2x<br />
*Fairy: 0x<br />
<br />
The detriments:<br />
*Shedinja loses its' immunity to Ice-types.<br />
<br />
The benefits:<br />
*Shedinja would be immune to the effects of Leech Seed.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Inconsistencies with the type effectiveness chart ==<br />
<br />
Currently the list accounts for Shedinja's ability - all supereffective types are listed as supereffective (obviously), and all other types are listed as immune.<br />
<br />
I feel this should be changed to match the standard, and should ignore Shedinja's ability, as there are various circumstances that make the standing chart confusing. Notably, there are several moves and abilities which can change Shedinja's ability (worry seed, mummy, simple beam, etc), and inverse battles obviously change what is and isn't able to hit Shedninja.<br />
<br />
When considering both of these, what is normally, not very, and ineffective against Shedinja is arguably crucial information. Removing Shedinja's ability does not make it vulnerable to normal or fighting type moves (under standard battle conditions), and it does not become vulnerable to, say, dragon attacks while in inverse battles. However, the existing type effectiveness chart implies that one (or both) of these may be the case. While anyone familiar with type effectiveness could easily figure out that that isn't the case...the chart is usually meant for people less familiar with type effectiveness, who are most likely to be confused by this.<br />
<br />
I feel it may be better to write out the weakness/resistance chart per the norm, but in the references for the table, add something to the effect of "Note that, under normal circumstances, because of Wonder Guard Shedinja is immune to all direct attacks which are not supereffective. If sent out in an inverse battle, Shedinja will be immune to all types it its types indicate that it is resistant against or immune to. If Shedinja's ability is changed, it will be one-shot by all damaging attacks that are not normal or fighting type".<br />
<br />
I would change this myself, but I am currently on mobile (and will likely forget about this when I'm back on my computer) and I feel this is a substantial change that I don't want to make without some consensus.

<div>Don't you think this is overdoing it a bit? -[[User:Happy Mask Man|Happy Mask Man]] 17:24, 17 February 2007 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I agree. This reads a bit more like fanfiction/fan terminology than anything. --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] 17:50, 17 February 2007 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Eh, I figured it needed to have a name. After all, there is a definite relationship between the birds and Lugia, the beasts and Ho-oh, and the Regis and Regigigas.<br />
<br />
Think it should just be a subpage of [[Legendary trio]]? [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 20:35, 17 February 2007 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Forget a subpage, just merge it into the main trio article as a section. That article is short anyway. --WikidSmaht 09:09, 19 February 2007 (UTC)<br />

<br />
Isn't Arceus the master of Trio masters?--[[User:Kuki|<span style="color:#b00000;">Kuki</span>]][[User talk:Kuki|<span style="color:#2c40a4;">Ta</span><span style="color:#049440;">lk</span>]] 16:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
:All we know is it's the master of the lake trio. Ho-Oh, Lugia, and Regigigas... well, they actually seem to be overlords of sky, sea, and land. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#FF0000">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 16:45, 4 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
i thought Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza were the overlords of the land, sea, and sky. I kind of pictured Ho-Oh and Lugia as guardians. and i'm not even sure what to think of Regigigas as of yet. [[User:InuMimi|InuMimi]] 12:39, 19 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
Remember that while Kyogre expanded the seas, Groudon expanded the continents, and Rayquaza brought neutral ground (and not ground as in Groudon, but you get what I mean) with the sky, they are very much beings of these domains, and have never been shown to watch over the effects of the domains they represent. Rayquaza may keep the balance between Kyogre and Groudon, but it seems to simply be a leader of the Sky World, rather than its Guardian. The Hebrew mythological/legendary/Biblical creatures known as Behemoth, Leviathan, and Ziz are seen as the Great Beasts of the Earth, Sea, and Sky (respectively), but not as the Guardians of these domains. They simply are the Greatest of the inhabitants of these domains. I'm not saying that Pokémon has to adhere to the stories that its Legendaries are based on, but they do provide a hint. Now, granted, Kyogre and Groudon's information in the version they do not appear in is important in that is states that Kyogre brought the relief of rain to those caught in drought, and Groudon brought and end to the monsoon-like rains that tormented various regions. But these are born from aspects of their nature - the ability to expand the seas or earth with Drizzle and Drought respectively. This would seem to state that Kyogre is actually the guardian of the Earth - as it brought balance back to regions suffering drought, the negative aspects of Groudon - and that Groudon is the guardian of the Seas, for precisely the equal and opposite reasons. Of course, they are not the guardians of each others' domains, though they do keep each other in check somewhat, when they're not sleeping, that is. And when they are both awake - well it seemed that they actually didn't want to fight each other in the games at least, and that it was the Orbs that drove them out of control. The citizens of Sootopolis in Emerald state that the two look like they actually don't want to be fighting each other, as if they are being forced to by the Red and Blue Orbs (which may or may not be man-made). And Rayquaza has been seen to keep them in check when this does happen (though somehow Lance and Ash and co. were able to stop them without Rayquaza in the anime). But even Rayquaza has been seen as very defensive of its area - in Movie 7 it attacked Deoxys on sight simply because Deoxys entered it's domain. That's more like an attack dog than a guardian trying to keep the balance of the skies. <br />
<br />
Lugia has shown multiple times that if it existed in the sky, it would cause catastrophic events that could effect the entire world, but by maintaining its powers beneath the sea it is able to keep the balance of the world's water, and therefore the source of life (as seen in a traditional Buddhist sense, as well as in, say, Movies 1, 2, 4, 5, and 9). Ho-oh has been seen as the maker of Rainbows and the being that ends the storms that could cause pain and suffering to the world, so it is the guardian of the Sky World. Ironically, the Legendary Birds and their actions affect the sea and are governed by Lugia, while the Legendary beasts are governed by Ho-oh. <br />
<br />
The Regi trio seem to have been made by Man, the class of beings often associated with the Earth, as bone and muscle and flesh are very Earthy substances. But Regigigas has been known as the being that pulled the Continents together by towing them with ropes, and it is also seen in Movie 11 as providing its phenomenal strength and its mastery over the great beasts that walk the Earth (here being Mammoswine) to prevent catastrophes such as that of the Glacidia glacier moving and causing much devastation across the Earth. Regigigas is perhaps the most Deus ex Machina a Pokémon movie character could get (though Kyogre in Movie 9 comes close), as he basically solves the final crisis of the movie, when Ash and co. couldn't. Regigigas' role of herding Megafauna is very Earth-based as well - see the Ground egg group, and it's role with Mammals (or HSOWA). Mammals almost define Earth and its denizens, though they certainly are not the only ones; but their association with humans and agriculture and also with the ancient Megafauna that dominated this world in the early Cenozoic are definitely indications that Regigigas is like a human of the ancient world, and how humans see themselves as the Stewards of Earth (or at least should...). <br />
<br />
So my point here is that while Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza represent the elemental energies that empower the three domains of Earth, Sea, and Sky, respectively, it is Regigigas, Lugia, and Ho-oh (again respectively) that are the stewards of these domains. Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza represent a trio (though a statistically imbalanced trio as Rayquaza is stronger than the other two), but one without a Trio Master because they keep each other in-balance ability-wise (and if Kyogre has some possible connection with "the Beast of the Sea", than it may be that the Trio Masters each keep the Weather Trio member in their domain balanced as well, though that's getting more into speculation). Regigigas, Lugia, and Ho-oh are Trio Masters because of their Pokédex and series lore about their roles, which connect them with both the Trios they control and their domains of Land, Sea, and Sky. The association with Lugia and the Moon and Ho-oh and the Sun - that's another story that has absolutely no basis save the opening screens of Silver and Gold versions. <br />
<br />
Arceus has yet to have been shown as the Master of Trio Masters, as has he yet to have been shown as the Master of the Dragon Trio (though this will probably be revealed next summer with Movie 12). So until then, Arceus remains as the Trio Master of the Lake Trio, only. But having created the entire world and its planes, I would assume he could be considered the master of the Weather Trio, the Dragon Trio, as well as relegating the Beast Trio, Bird Trio, and Regi Trio to Ho-oh, Lugia, and Regigigas. That, however, is speculation for now. Thank you for your time. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 03:53, 16 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Arceus ==<br />
<br />
Isn't he the trio master of the dragons as well.We know for sure he created Dialga and Palkia (and he probably created Giratina to start the reverse world but that is just speculation) which is like how Ho-oh created the Beasts and Ho-oh is the beast master so Arceus should be noted as the Dragon Trio Master or as Master of Dialga and Palkia.<br />
[[User:Sailor Earth|Sailor Earth]] 16:22, 16 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
True, but if he's only the master of Dialga and Palkia, then he's not a Trio Master, just a Duo Master, so to speak.<br />
<br />
:Please add your sig with the four tildes after you comment. Arceus is almost certainly the Trio Master of the Dragon Trio as well; however, his relationship with Giratina is still not yet confirmed, while it's been established that he either created Dialga and Palkia or else they are warring aspects of himself (sorry for using the masculine noun-forms). Until Movie 12 comes out, we probably won't have an answer to that, so for now, Arceus remains only as the Trio Master of the Lake Trio.

:A little late, but this should merged into the legendary trio article. Anyone oppose? [[User:DanPMK|MK]] 03:12, 11 September 2008 (UTC)<br />
::Naw, it's a good article. It could be fleshed out a bit more, and after Movie 12, it will probably be bigger with the Dragon Trio added. I say keep it for now. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 03:58, 16 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::I agree with Maxim here. The article is inconsistent and attempts to reveal patterns that don’t exist. Lugia definitely isn’t the master of the birds in the games, for example, and Ho‐oh is not the master of the beasts in the anime (AFAIK; bear in mind that I haven’t watched the show in years). The fact that we ''repeat'' Rayquaza really shows that this is just shoehorning. [[Legendary trio]]s this is not. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 22:13, 24 December 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Lake Trio Giratina==<br />
I'm starting to think that the lake trio is led by Giratina. After all, they did ''kinda'' summon him and lead the player to him ''and'' he appears in the fourth lake of Sinnoh. This is purely speculation but so are the others, except the Golems.[[User:Shadow1337|Shadow1337]] 23:57, 13 October 2008 (UTC)<br />

== Real History ==<br />
<br />
I'm from Portugal and when they distributed Arceus for Diamond, Pearl and Platinum versions they gave me a booklet telling the history. I quote:<br />
<br />
''Arceus is regarded as the Pokémon God, the creator of the Pokémon universe''.<br />
<br />
''This is a legendary Pokémon, Alpha species and normal type. ''Though, if it have some elemental plates it can be transformed in one of 17 types of Pokémon.'' This is its powerful multi-type ability.''<br />
<br />
''The story goes that Arceus was born from an egg in chaos even before the outbreak of the cosmos.''<br />
<br />
''Arceus began creating Pokémon to put everything in place. The first thing he did was to create Mew to take account of the universe, this one and Arceus are the Pokémon that accompanied the formation process of the cosmos.''<br />
<br />
''Then he had to create Shaymin so that nature arise and to maintain balance. Arceus created Dialga, which in turn gave rise to time, and Palkia, which led to the space. Giratina created to control the death and, if necessary, act as mediator between Dialga and Palkia.''<br />
<br />
''After that, it created Jirachi that put the stars on firmament. Once created light, thanks to Jirachi, immediatly Darkrai could be seen in Arceus' shadow. Arceus thought to give a mystic touch to the universe and created Cresselia, the first Pokémon with feelings. This created the moon and, thanks to the feelings, wanted some help and company, so it created the legendary trio formed by Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf and later the Clefairy. This legendary trio was later charged with providing living beings with feelings, like emotion, knowledge and will, basic features that represent each.<br />
'''Welcome to the Pokémon Universe.'''''<br />
<br />
That means Arceus created Mew, Shaymin, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Jirachi and Cresselia. Cresselia created Clefairy, Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf. Darkrai was created by Arceus' shadow.<br />
<br />
For people who knows portuguese:<br />
<br />
''Arceus é considerado como o Pokémon Deus, criador do universo Pokémon.''<br />
<br />
''Trata-se de um Pokémon lendário, da especie Alpha e de tipo Normal. No entanto, se possuir algumas das elemental plates pode transformar-se num dos 17 tipos de Pokémon. esta é a sua poderosa capacidade multi-tipo.''<br />
<br />
''Reza a história de que Arceus nasceu de um ovo imerso no caos ainda antes de eclodir o cosmos.''<br />
<br />
''Arceus começou a criar Pokémon para colocar tudo no seu lugar. A primeira coisa que fez foi criar Mew para que tomassse conta do universo, pelo que este último e Arceus são os Pokémon que acompanharam o processo de formação do cosmos.''<br />
<br />
''Depois teve de criar Shaymin para que a natureza surgisse e para manter o equilibrio. Arceus criou Dialga, que por sua vez deu origem ao tempo, e Palkia, que deu origem ao espaço. Criou Giratina para que controlasse a morte e, se necessário, agisse como mediador entre Dialga e Palkia.''<br />
<br />
''Posteriormente criou Jirachi que colocou as estrelas no firmamento. Uma vez criada a luz, graças a Jirachi, imediatamente foi possível ver Darkrai na sombra de Arceus. Arceus pensou dar ao universo um toque místico pelo que criou Cresselia, o primeiro Pokémon com sentimentos. Este criou a lua e, graças aos seu sentimentos, desejou ter ajuda e companhia, pelo que criou o trio lendário formado por Uxie, Mesprit e Azelf e posteriormente os Clefairy, este trio lendário ficou encarregue de mais tarde dotar os seres vivos de sentimentos, como a emoção, a sabedoria e a vontade, cracterísticas básicas que representam cada um dele.''<br />

Probably<br />
<br />
the only possible explanation is that nintendo wanted to release this as a surprise goodie to stir things up along with the figures, so they cancelled it in all over world but forgot potugal, so its a company mistake, although that thing revealed alot such as creation of darkrai, one can see the two having some slight resemblance only by the shape of the head (somewhat), and thus arceus and darkrai are somewhat of a duo, somewhat, and some what of a trio if a crescelia is considered, and if so this is the first time that a trio master is part of a trio, but i'm still sceptical, didnt anybody else get such a booklet in portugal??? {{unsigned|Nobody777}}<br />

Since this new movie is featuring Kyurem and the musketeer Pokemon, is it possible that Kyurem is their master? Or is it to early to tell?

:Besides the movie, what does Kyurem have in common with the musketeers?

== duo+master=/=trio ==<br />
<br />
Doesn't "trio" imply three equal parts?<br />
For example I find it silly that it's the "weather trio" when 2 of them cause weather, and the stronger one neutralizes it (not to mention the dozen other ways Rayquaza is superior to them, including a more intelligent guardian-like role, instead of wreaking havoc). A weather-duo with an anti-weather-guardian would be the right direction. Same for the cloud demons. And the musketeers; if anything Cobalion is at least part of the trio, Keldeo the adoptee is the one whos place in it is in the air for now. But even then, Cobalion being their master, based on its vague role in the family, with nothing else that would make it stick out in any way (unlike Keldeo) is too much. They don't have a master, just a student. Also the word master feels so misleading (it's not like they own or control each other), but.. there is no fitting word for meaningless obvious connections between legendaries that I know of.<br />
<br />
I also want to note that the pokemon fanbase is exaggerating the creation myths/legends part of legendary pokemon when it comes to this kind of speculation (which may be what GF were aiming for though XD). The only things that really presents these creatures as supernatural beings with godlike powers, are their myths. The facts are simply that pokemon exist, who are stronger than usual and have some neat abilities (affecting the weather, manipulating dimensions a bit). They don't even show any sign of near human-like intelligence, actually they can happen to get caught into pokeballs by strong trainers and battle for them like usual (unless one considered anime canon, but its kind of hard to take serious when they disregard lots of things from the games and make up just as much own crap as they go along). Think of it that way; in the old times, some people witnessed a legendary like Groudon or Arceus, saw water evaporating wherever it went/saw it call a bunch of Unowns to make an egg or two fall out of the sky, and as they passed the info on, it turned into myth starring Groudon as the landmass god or Arceus as the creator of the universe. Same for the rest. They didn't create anything, they're just very rare/gone/hidden and best at manipulating specific things.

:: Well alright, but what makes the difference between the Regis being a trio with master instead of being a quartet, if not that the three share more similarities between each other than with Regigigas? If the Regis aren't a quartet then Groudon and Kyogre are a duo with a master/guardian (as they have so many similarities while Rayquaza sticks out as superior on multiple levels, even design-wise), same for the Kami. Also at the moment we have no idea what will become of Kyurem and how it really relates to the other 2, but in the current state they're not a trio by that logic (even if Kyurem gets buffed up, itd be a Rayquaza situation in the end).--[[User:Saiph charon|Saiph charon]] 11:03, 23 January 2012 (UTC)<br />
:::Rayquaza doesn't really stick out from Groudon and Kyogre to me. They all have something to do with weather (neutralizing weather still involves weather), have similar markings, their movesets are even slightly similar. I can see how the Regis and Regigigas could be a quartet, except that Regigigas came out in a different generation. I feel like that sets it farther apart from the other Regis than Rayquaza is from Groudon and Kyogre. Plus, I find that the reference to Regigigas creating the Regi trio also sets it apart. If it created them, shouldn't it be their master and not part of their group? Like Ho-oh and the Legendary Beasts. These are just my opinions, though.

It has 3 different colors of markings (red, black AND yellow) instead of just 1 (red or black). It has 2 types instead of 1.

Black Kyurem and White Kyurem are more "proof" of Ghetsis (and later the player character) ruling over Reshiram/Zekrom than Kyurem doing so.

== Meloetta the Kami Trio's Master ==<br />
<br />
We've placed Landorus as the Kami Trio's in house Trio master...but wouldn't Meloetta also fit the bill since it controlled their transformation in the anime, and got them back under control after they went berserk.<br />
<br />
I know its just in the anime, but we consider Lugia the bird trio's master and that was in a movie.<br />
<br />
'''Evidence:''' Meloetta, like the Kami trio, also has a form change.<br />
<br />
Meloetta is needed, at least in the anime, to help the Trio achieve their Therian Forme.<br />
<br />
When all three went berserk, it was Meloetta who calmed them, and then changed them back to their Incarnate forme.<br />
<br />
The evidence of Meloetta being the true Trio master is piling up. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 22:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
But the game doesn't have enough evidence to support that. Plus, they dont share similarities in origin. However, If you look at the base stats, Meloetta does have a base stat equivalent to landorus. However, I dont think there are very concrete evidence that support this. --[[User:Nobody777|Nobody777]] ([[User talk:Nobody777|talk]]) 03:45, 3 February 2013 (UTC)<br />

<br />
I really think this should be discussed. Meloetta, albeit in the anime only, is definitely fitting for the role. Also as I've mentioned, Lugia got its title from a movie which isn't much different than the anime. Meloetta is needed to call upon the trio to the ruins, transform them into their Therian forms, control them, calm them and turn them back to their Incarnate forms. It also (as pointed out by Nobody777) has the same stat total with other similarities such as gaining atk in their alternate forms.

:This will not be discused, because Trio Masters are dictated by the games' canon. Since it's established in the games that Landorus is the Trio Master, there is no discussion in that regard. In the case of Lugia, there's no mention wether if it is or not, hence, another continuity's canon had to be adopted, since its role in the movie was fitting that of a Master. If the games said otherwise, it would be removed of this list.

== Suggested merge ==<br />
<br />
This is a fan term for a phenomenon that's only loosely present in the games, and no explicit connection/comparison between trio masters has (to my knowledge) ever been made in canon, suggesting to me that there is not a pressing need for them to be grouped together in the mainspace. Furthermore, virtually every instance of the subject matter itself is pretty debatable:<br />
* Lugia is a trio master only in the anime<br />
* Ho-Oh is a trio master only in the games<br />
* Rayquaza and Landorus (and Kyurem, if you subscribe to that theory, which is mentioned in Trivia but not in the main body of the page) are already members of their trios, making them not quite fit the pattern<br />
* Regigigas and Arceus are said to have created the trios they're supposedly "trio master" of, but there's otherwise no indication they actually have any sway over them the way other trio masters are supposed to<br />
* The Swords of Justice are properly a quartet, not a trio, and if we're going to single any of them out, it should really be Keldeo since it's the one that ''canon actually does single out as different from the others'' (but more importantly, the Swords canonically don't fit the trio-and-master dynamic to begin with, so they shouldn't be here at all even if the page continues to exist)<br />
So yeah, basically, I don't believe there's any actual canonical justification for this to be a mainspace page. I think we should do what we did with Electric rodents: pare it down to the essentials and use that to expand its section on [[Appendix:Fan terminology]].

== Other 'references' ==<br />
<br />
I'm a little unsure about some of the things that appear in the {{DL|Trio master|other references to trio masters}} section. To me, some of them really don't seem like references at all, namely having to purify all of the Shadow Pokémon in Colosseum and having to befriend all 300 Pokémon in the Oblivia Browser in Guardian signs in order to encounter Ho-oh and Lugia, respectively. Yes, in each of these cases the befriending of a legendary trio is required to meet their master, but befriending the trio ''specifically'' is not. The three legendary birds are indeed needed to encounter Lugia in Guardian Signs, but so are 297 other Pokémon. That doesn't seem like much of a reference to me. It's not even like they're the only legendary trio that appear in the Oblivia Browser anyway. This also applies to the legendary golems in Shadows of Almia. I think that these three points should be removed from the page. [[User:Dannyboy601|Dannyboy601]] ([[User talk:Dannyboy601|talk]]) 16:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)<br />

== Why does this exist? ==<br />
<br />
Why has this fanfiction page returned to dominance? It makes no sense to have this on every legendary page and only even begins to make sense by combining sources from difference canon. Lugia is not a "trio master" in the games and it's not a term that's ever even uttered in the anime or manga, any details that this page tells us can be told on the appropriate section of each Pokemons page (such as Lugias relation to the legendary birds in the anime). This is an eyesore on an otherwise factual and accurate wiki and needs to be mass deleted.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:14, 16 July 2016 (UTC)<br />
:I fully agree, but as far as I'm aware this has been brought up before and never gained much traction.

::I disagree, this page is useful in describing a recurring relationship between legendary Pokémon in the games. While I agree that Lugia's inclusion is perhaps questionable, the others are clearly trio masters. Ho-oh resurrected the dogs, regigagas is clearly the master of the regis, arceus created the creation and lake trio, Rayquaza and Landorus are clearly internal leaders. It's clear that whenever there's a trio, there's usually a clear external or internal leader/master/overseer (whatever you want to call them).

Each "master's" status over the respective trio are supported by canon. This relation between one more powerful Pokémon and a trio (or two others, thus creating a trio) isn't exactly disputable.

<br />
The deletion template has been on the page for years. The conversation should probably still continue because having so many of them is quite annoying. I'll say the page and concept should be moved over to fan terminology. Based way too much on speculation and non-specific evidence. The information is however important, but the actual term is complete speculation. I'd suggest a page that describes the relationships between Legendary and Mythical Pokemon, Which would also include some extra information on Pokemon who AREN'T duos/trios such as the Tapu with Solgaleo/Lunala, who have lore with eachother but isn't mentioned very much on their own pages. The legendary titans aren't really a trio anymore either, but all the information relating to them is on their own page, making a "Trio Master" page for them completely redundant unless you want a page with quick summaries (which is what I'm suggesting). But even then it's a bit redundant knowing how there is a page for [[Myths and legends involving Legendary Pokémon]] also exists and has most of the information people are likely looking for.

== Rather than deleting this page, here's my take... ==<br />
<br />
I think this page is necessary, and it already makes it clear that "trio master" is a fan term and not particularly elucidated by the games in every instance. While it can be argued Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Arceus being "trio masters" is fanon due to the fact that they only have very loose, very roundabout in-game associations with their respective trios, it is an established fact that Rayquaza is the master of the weather trio, Regigigas is the master of the titans, and Landorus is the master of the Forces of Nature. Each one of those either keeps the other members of its trio in check or created the members of its trio. Lugia on the other hand was only referenced in the game canon as tied to the legendary birds via Sea Spirit's Den, and otherwise, very much unrelated. Ho-Oh has absolutely nothing to do with the legendary beasts other than reviving them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the three don't worship it, the three don't follow its commands, nor does anyone make a clear connection between the four. Arceus was the creator of the lake guardians and creation trio, but does that necessarily mean it itself is part of those trios? Like the prior examples, it is otherwise a standalone Pokemon with no common design/type/name themes. I think this page simply needs to be reworked rather than deleting it or considering it in its entirety as fanon.<br />

From the beginning, Legendaries were for fun and challenge. The birds were hard to find, hard to catch. Should these beings not have higher authorities within their worlds?

== Expand/Rename/Merge to cover Legendary Groupings ==<br />
So deleting the Regis from this article broke a number of comments on the article that refer to the Regis, and belies a history of Regigigas' relationship with the Regis as their Trio Master. They may be a Quintet now, but that doesn't mean there shouldn't be a role for discussing assymetrical Legendary relationships. We already saw in Gen VII that GameFreak is willing to break their normal rules and introduce Legendary Quartets instead. The Swords of Justice are another example: within normal gameplay, they're clearly a Legendary Trio but given Keldeo as a normally unobtainable in-game mythical Pokémon (not a Legendary by definition), they are considered a Quartet too. Could we merge Duos, Trios, and Trio Masters into a single article about the relationships of Legendaries & Mythicals and their overseer legendaries & mythicals? I believe that would be the most comprehensive response to the nuance of these matters given that GameFreak clearly documented in the games and anime and other material these overseers and relationships, but they're not necessarily Trios or Duos+Overseer or Trios+Overseer, or Duos without Overseer, etc. There's a lot of nuance. That's not reason for deletion, it IS reason to broaden rather than restrict the scope unnecessarily and cut out key parts of the article. Just like Rayquaza and Landorus oversee Duos, Regigigas oversees a Quintet. That's worth documenting and comparing against other overseers like Ho-oh and Arceus.

==Honoguma==<br />
It is in fact much *less* likely to be Honoguma if it was revealed around the same time because early prototypes and final prototypes would never get released at the same time, that would be like releasing a prototype Pokemon and the final version simultaneously. It is vastly more likely to be related to Teddiursa as it was released around the same time as the development of Gold and Silver.

:The bear has a much stronger resemblace to Honoguma than Teddiursa, hence why the picture is there, for comparision. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#007FFF; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span></small> 12:14, 4 August 2011 (UTC)<br />
::The bear does not have a much stronger resemblace to Honoguma than Teddiursa. It seems obvious that Teddiursa and the artifact are vastly similar, ears, colour, face etc, while Honoguma has none of these similarities, only 'bear' in its name. Plus as I said before it is just speculation that there is any prototypical link, because early prototypes and final prototypes would never get released at the same time.

== Bug Type ==<br />
<br />
This (http://dogasu.bulbagarden.net/manga/pocket_monsters/newpoke.jpg) is a pokémon caught in the Pocket Monster manga, see info here: http://dogasu.bulbagarden.net/manga/pocket_monsters/characters_pokemon.html<br />
It should be added. --[[User:SamuStar|SamuStar]] 12:36, 4 August 2011 (UTC)<br />
:Hmm, I'm not sure if it belongs here, since there is no disputing that is ''is'' a Pokemon, just a manga-exclusive one. I will add it for now, but I really think this deserves its own page. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#007FFF; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span></small> 13:26, 4 August 2011 (UTC)<br />

:The first are mentioned by Bill to be nothing but toys (although he was trying to breed artificial Pokemon that look like this), the second picture are Blue's toys (among them is one of Anakubo's cats - Chinmi. Chinmi and Aiya make cameo appearances in the comics pretty often). The third picture is Brock's collection (yeah, some living Pokemon finally). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 15:59, 4 August 2011 (UTC)<br />

==Beast Trio Origin==<br />
Entei, Suicune, and Raikou were created from three Pokémon that died when the tower in Ecruteak burned down. It's never explicitly stated what Pokémon died, so I think we could add them to the page. [[User:JesusofSuburbia|JesusofSuburbia]] 23:03, 24 November 2011 (UTC)<br />

==Unknown Creature In Pokemon Origins?==<br />
I've searched around the internet a couple times, and there is absolutely no information whatsoever on this strange statue in Brock's Gym, featured only in Pokemon Origins. The design is very simple - a cat-like creature with wings. Should it be added to this page?<br />
<br />
You can spot it behind the Charmander - <br />

:It's a creative take on the statues that exist in the gyms. They don't reflect any real Pokémon - I always thought of them as a cross between Rhydon and Cubone but with dragon wings. It doesn't belong on this page unless it's looped into a section discussing what the mysterious the gym/league statues that date back to Red & Green might represent.

== More stuff from Pokemon Pocket Monsters, maybe ==<br />
<br />
[http://www.mangapanda.com/pocket-monster-kin-gin-golden-boys/1/21 Here] and [http://www.mangapanda.com/pocket-monster-kin-gin-golden-boys/1 here]. I'm not sure these count- the former might be Pokemon that're just hard to recognise in that manga's style, and the latter might just be generic non-Pokemon butterflies. What do you guys think? [[User:Yamiidenryuu|Yamiidenryuu]] ([[User talk:Yamiidenryuu|talk]]) 03:33, 24 July 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Yes, they may be generic butterflies, but there's no evidence saying they /are/ or /aren't/ Pokémon, so I say add them both. [[User:Jdrawer|Jdrawer]] ([[User talk:Jdrawer|talk]]) 05:31, 12 February 2015 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Some Disputed Pokemon Hats in Mcworld (maybe) ==<br />
A code in Mcworld can unlock a Pikachu Hat and some five disputed pokemon hats rather why wasn't the hats as a Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Minccino, and Basculin? Also, can I add this to the page?http://digiponythedigimon.deviantart.com/art/Possibly-Disputed-Pokemons-or-Fakemons-498580969[[User:ThePokeDigiFan|ThePokeDigiFan]] ([[User talk:ThePokeDigiFan|talk]]) 23:04, 6 December 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== "Pokémon" identification, perhaps? ==<br />
<br />
The statue from Pokémon Origins looks like a creature from the Mother series. This may be off, but the "Unknown Monster" from the third movie draws similarities to Unown. Could someone give me confirmation or denouncement before I add these tidbits? [[User:Jdrawer|Jdrawer]] ([[User talk:Jdrawer|talk]]) 05:34, 12 February 2015 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Possible additions ==<br />
<br />
In the anime (I believe it's a movie), we see [http://icaro382.deviantart.com/art/Candilix-387894759 this], which appears to be a Pokémon, though heavily undetailed. Attached is an artist's rendition. Also, in games, we see [http://jdrawer01.tumblr.com/post/113385185150/what-is-dis a similar situation] in the paintings in many games. This one also has an artist's depiction. In the former, no word is given on whether what we see is actually a Pokémon, but the paintings oftentimes have titles that state the subject to be a Pokémon. Could/should these be added? [[User:Jdrawer|Jdrawer]] ([[User talk:Jdrawer|talk]]) 00:40, 12 March 2015 (UTC)<br />
:The Swirlix look-alike is just a random amorphous blob because it appears in a far away shot. It doesn't mean anything. The second is just that, a painting. Could just be weird Bellsprout. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 01:01, 12 March 2015 (UTC)<br />
:: I think that first one might be from the first XY episode- I remember a screenshot from the previews being thrown around with a while llama-shaped creature in it. If that's it it's probably a Furfrou. [[User:Yamiidenryuu|Yamiidenryuu]] ([[User talk:Yamiidenryuu|talk]]) 22:16, 13 March 2015 (UTC)<br />

== The Reawakening ==<br />

<br />
== Baby Celesteela ==<br />
<br />
In SM069, Sophocles retells his favorite legend which includes a "Princess Kaguya" who is represented by what looks like a "baby" version of Celesteela. It resembles a bamboo shoot and a swaddled infant. [[User:PDL|PDL]] ([[User talk:PDL|talk]]) 23:19, 19 April 2018 (UTC)<br />
: [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/9/99/SM069_3.png That's the image] - not sure if perfect quality, I didn't see this episode yet.

==Clear weather==<br />
Just gonna post this here so anyone has a chance to say how I'm wrong, but I think the three Isle of Armor caves only have clear weather, and - I'm not 100% sure here - I think the spawns start significantly into the caves, so you can't trick other weathers in either. This would mean that it's impossible to find Psyduck here, for example. If that's untrue, feel free to call me out, but else I think impossible weathers and associated encounters shouldn't be on location pages (and of that I'd like to hear other people's opinions).

== Why Archipelago? ==<br />
<br />
Even the main map uses Islands, and so does practically everything else. Why do we call it "Orange Archipelago" instead of "Orange Islands"? --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 02:08, 27 September 2012 (UTC)<br />
:Taking a quick search around the internet seems to show that it was just to be formal. The template for locations does use "Orange Islands" at the moment. I would say that unless the anime or the manga, The Electric Tale of Pikachu call it the Orange Archipelago it would be alright to change it. [[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 07:33, 27 September 2012 (UTC)<br />
::I support the name change since "Orange Islands" is more common. Sorry for butting in. --[[User:PokeAwesome94|PokeAwesome94]] ([[User talk:PokeAwesome94|talk]]) 13:34, 18 October 2012 (UTC)<br />
:::I would not say that it is butting in since this is a public discussion. In any case, should we tag the article for potential moving or should we wait a bit more time for some more comments? --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 06:14, 19 October 2012 (UTC)<br />
::::Either way is fine with me, if you feel like waiting for more comments you could maybe wait until October 27th. That way a month will have passed and most people who want to have a say in this will have gotten a fair chance. --[[User:PokeAwesome94|PokeAwesome94]] ([[User talk:PokeAwesome94|talk]]) 09:53, 19 October 2012 (UTC)<br />
:::::Except Orange Archipelago is the name given to the "region" in the actual anime canon. I don't recall which episode exactly, but likely when Oak assigns Ash to travel there to get the GS Ball. The area could be bigger than just the islands. (Think of it like {{wp|Oceania}} and the {{wp|Pacific Islands}}.) That's just my theory any way. This isn't a name we just made up, it was a name used in the show. <sup>[[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup>[[User:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">Jo the Marten</span>]]<sup>[[Flygon (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup> [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">ಠ_ಠ</span>]][[Cilan (anime)|<span style="color:#90C870;">♥</span>]] 10:08, 19 October 2012 (UTC)<br />
::::::True, but the same area/region is given the name of Orange Islands in the subtitle of the second season - [[Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands]]. It can potentially be said that the name was changed when the subtitle was added to the season. (The GS Ball plot began in EP081 according to the same article.) {{unsigned|Super goku}}<br />
:::::::Jo the Marten, I don't think that your personal speculations should have any impact on this decision. It has, as far as I know, never been said that the region is bigger than the islands and there will probably never be any confirmation to that since Orange Islands was a filler season that will probably never be visited again. --[[User:PokeAwesome94|PokeAwesome94]] ([[User talk:PokeAwesome94|talk]]) 10:04, 20 October 2012 (UTC)<br />

== Official Orange Islands, Sevii Islands and New Island map ==<br />
<br />
I found this official map with the Sevii Islands, New Island and the Orange Islands. It's part of [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:RegionsMoviesMap.jpg File:RegionsMoviesMap.jpg], which is an anime map of all the movie locations up to the 10th movie.<br />

== Possible relation to Sun and Moon ==<br />
<br />
I can't help but notice that Alola, the region featured in the newest core series games, Sun and Moon, seems to have a lot of similarities to the Orange Islands/Archipelago. Aside from the obvious fact that they're both islands, they also both have alternate color variants of previous regions' pokemon, and instead of Gym battles they feature "challenges" where the trainer and their Pokemon have to do something other than simply battling a gym leader. I can't help but wonder if these games were, at least in part, somewhat inspired by the Orange Archipelago, perhaps as a 20th anniversary nod to the many kids who watched that iteration of the show and wondered why there was never a game that took place in that region. If anyone could find any references about this and add it to the article I would be grateful.

== Potential origin ==<br />
<br />
Is it possible the Orange Islands are based on either the entirety of the {{wp|Nanpō Islands}}, an archipelago located south of the Kanto region which does somewhat resemble the Orange Islands, with the top two islands (Izu Islands and Bonin Islands) also being the basis for the Sevii Islands, or the at least the {{wp|Volcano Islands}}, located south the aforementioned two islands, just like how the Orange Islands are south of the Sevii Islands? [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 03:40, 23 July 2018 (UTC)<br />
:Very possible, given that the Orenjishima (Orange Islands) seem to originally been based on the same locations as the Nanashima (Sevii Islands), per the map Oak looks at in M2. In either case, their location as a massive and round-shaped archipelago per the maps in this article are unrelated to any real world Japanese island chain. They're round because they're shaped like an Orange, as part of the nominal joke and as appeared in an artbook shortly after. The map from Oak's PC screen is much more clearly designed after the Nanpōshima, and should be taken as canon but for some reason editors of this wiki prefer artbook designs to what appeared in the context of the actual anime on screen. :_: [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] ([[User talk:Kumori Satosuke|talk]]) 21:37, 2 June 2020 (UTC)</div>Kumori Satosukehttps://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Talk:List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_Kanto_Pok%C3%A9dex_number&diff=2898325Talk:List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number2018-12-16T13:31:09Z<p>Kumori Satosuke: /* Fairy-type 2 */</p>

== Fairy-type 2 ==<br />
<br />
This article still lists Pokémon such as Clefairy and Jigglypuff as Normal-type... Shouldn't Pokémon that had their type changed to Fairy in Gen VI have their type changed here to reflect that, as the article is "a list of Pokémon in the order dictated by the Kanto regional Pokédex" and not a list of Pokémon as they appeared in that Pokédex? (This goes for lists of Pokédexes Gen 2-5 on the wiki as well.) --[[User:Celadonkey|Celadonkey]] 23:48, 13 October 2018 (UTC)<br />
:We decided to keep these lists as their normal typing and not have them updated to reflect the status of the games that they appeared in I believe. Since the Kanto Pokedex, only appears (currently) in Gen VI onwards, and no other previous dexes have been included in another game it was decided to leave them until such a point. With the upcoming advent of Let's Go, we will be reexamining this condition depending on how it's handled within the game and whether they decided to do some renumbering or not (such as to introduce evolutions/pre-evolutions etc. It's for the same reasoning that we don't include the Alolan Pokemon in this list, and also why Magnemite has it's secondary Steel type listed. --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 00:02, 14 October 2018 (UTC)<br />

:::On the Regional Dex page, LGPE KDex is separated out from RGBYFRLG KDex. However, both links go to this same page, which only has been updated to include Meltan and Melmetal, and thus gives false information to players of LGPE about Clefairy, Clefable, Jigglypuff, Wigglytuff, and Mr. Mime, and entirely ignores the availability of Alolan forms, which are still included in the local Dex as alternate forms. Either we need to fully update this page and put asterixes next to those types like the National Dex does, or we need a split and disamb.

'''Mahalo Trail''' (Japanese: '''マハロ{{tt|山道|さんどう}}''' ''Mahalo Mountain Trail'') is a location in [[Alola]]. It connects [[Iki Town]] and the [[Ruins of Conflict]].<br />
<br />
In the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version]], a woman at the east end of the road in front of the [[Hau'oli City]] Pokémon Center will guide the player here. She will also guide the player back to the city from the trail. At the top of the trail, the player will encounter a "mysterious" man in a red shirt who will give the player [[Stardust]] to transfer to their full game. The player can revisit him, but the man will have no further gifts for them.<br />
<br />
==Geography==<br />
The Mahalo Trail is a narrow trail that winds upward through mountainous terrain. The trail cuts through the terrain in a switchback fashion, forming steep walls to either side. The top of these walls often rises into more cliffs and hills, or grows wild with a variety of trees and bushes. In some places, stout statues dot the sides of the trail, with some statues positioned atop the walls of the trail as well. It leads to the Plank Bridge, a wooden bridge spanning a wide ravine with a river running through it. Near the start of the game, [[Nebby]] destroys the bridge, but after the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}{{sup/7|SM}}/defeats [[Ilima]] at [[Hau'oli Cemetery]]{{sup/7|USUM}} during [[Mina|Mina's]] Trial, it will be restored.<br />
<br />
In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, after defeating Ilima in Hau'oli Cemetery during the course of Mina's Trial, the player can return to Plank Bridge to meet Lillie, who asks that the player take Nebby, now a {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|US}} or {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|UM}}, in their care. They can then battle Nebby, and in the process, give it any [[nickname]].<br />
<br />
In the demo, smashable rocks block the trail, requiring [[Poké Ride|Tauros Charge]] to pass. In the demo only, the trail eventually comes to a dead end where four statues sit in a square, each facing the center.<br />

Mahalo Trail appeared in ''[[SM061|A Mission of Ultra Urgency!]]'', where {{Ash}} and {{ashcl}} confronted a {{p|Buzzwole}} there during their first mission as the [[Ultra Guardians]]. While the others tended to healing a {{p|Snorlax}} that Buzzwole had drained of energy, Ash started battling Buzzwole in order to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. With its amazing strength and speed, Buzzwole was more than a match for [[Ash's Pikachu]]. However, it soon turned out that Buzzwole was more into watching {{an|Kiawe}} and Ash flexing with it than battling. Using this distraction to their advantage, the group was then able to capture Buzzwole with a {{ball|Beast}}, allowing them to take it to [[Melemele Meadow]] to be returned to its home world through an [[Ultra Wormhole]].<br />

==In the manga==<br />

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===<br />
Mahalo Trail debuted in [[PASM04]], where {{adv|Moon}} and [[Lillie]] traveled there after [[Nebby]] escaped from Lillie's bag and ran off. Upon arriving, they found Nebby being attacked by a group of wild {{p|Spearow}}. Moon stepped in to save Nebby, but Nebby caused an explosion that broke the bridge they were standing on, causing both to fall into the water. They were saved by {{p|Tapu Koko}}, who caught Moon and Nebby and brought them to safety.<br />

<div>== WakeUp Slap - Unconfirmed and likely to be fake ==<br />
<br />
This new attack "WakeUp Slap" was reported on Blue SkY Blog, right. It first reported the names of new starters (it was real information). But it recently became infamous of posting FAKE informations. One of them first leader's name, Zack. He was revealed to be named Hyouta few days. And second is three fake Pokémon Names (Marsula, Garinan, Samusamu). There is no sign about these Pokémon and one of the infamous Fake Pokémon was named "Samu" (only two final characters of the name can be seen). So, the most recent informations on this blog are likely to be fake. And they're still unconfirmed. So, they should be removed from Bulbapedia until official announce of the attacks (It will prove if it's real or fake). The Blue SkY Blog is no longer a reliable source! - Maxim (Sorry for bad grammar, I am not native english speaker)<br />

== Deletion ==<br />
<br />
Should we delete this talk page? It was only used for an unanswered question posted by the early days of Maxim on the 'pedia, back in 2006. [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 12:17, 8 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:It seems to have been relevant back then. It's not hurting anyone or anything by existing. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 12:22, 8 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Mimic? ==<br />
<br />
Wouldn't it be possible to breed Mimic onto a Mime Jr, then level it up once to get a level two Mr. Mime? -[[User:Smeargle|Smeargle]] 20:01, 1 July 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Yes. And since it is on the Egg Move list, only the Father would need to know it. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] 20:22, 1 July 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Legs==<br />
Does this pokemon have legs, if not could we mention that two of the new baby pokemon are opposites (in that bonsly has legs and no arms, Mime jr. has arms and no legs.) --[[User:Titan|TiT]][[User_Talk:Titan|An]] 12:45, 16 August 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
The legs issue, another common example would be Jynx and Smoochum, Smoochum has legs, or at least feet, when Jynx's dress gets in the way at evolution. But seeing how Mime Jr are able to walk in the anime without need of levitation, one could say it has legs.--[[User:KAWAWA|KAWAWA]] 07:41, 7 January 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Mimic Evolution Timing ==<br />
<br />
I was levelling up my Mime Jr.; it got to 15, learned Mimic, and then immediately evolved. To my understanding from past games and the wording of evolution article, this article, and Mr. Mime article, this ordering shouldn’t happen unless something’s changed. The article says you need to know Mimic and then level up. Here I levelled up, learned Mimic, and didn’t have to level up again knowing Mimic. Did something change or have we just worded move-based evolutions poorly?

'''Route 27''' (Japanese: '''２７ばんどうろ''' ''Route 27'') is a route in southwest [[Kanto]], connecting {{rt|26|Kanto}} and [[New Bark Town]] in [[Johto]].<br />
<br />
==Route description==<br />
Route 27 begins as a [[Water tile|water]]-logged [[route]] at its western terminus, requiring {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to {{m|surf}} east from [[New Bark Town]] to reach the first area of land along the route. After making landfall for the first time, a helpful Trainer near the shore will notify other Trainers that they have officially entered [[Kanto]]. The route continues east to a three-way intersection. The east path leads to the lower portion of a ledge and, ultimately, a dead end. The lack of a through route to the east forces Trainers to the north, where the path meets the western portal of the [[Tohjo Falls]].<br />
<br />
A Trainer awaits at the eastern portal, battling unsuspecting Trainers who exit the area. Also around this area is a house owned by a woman who can detect how devoted a {{player}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is to them. If a Trainer shows her that their lead Pokémon is attached to them, the woman will give them {{TM|37|Sandstorm}}. This prize is only attainable once regardless of how many different Pokémon are shown to her. South of the house is the aforementioned ledge used to bypass the Tohjo Falls when heading west along the route.<br />
<br />
The route crosses a pond before resuming its course on land. This area of the route is home to the lone patch of grass along Route 27. The path of Route 27 follows the grass southeast, passing a Trainer amongst the grass, before arriving at a bridge. There are two Trainers near the starting point, with a third, {{tc|Ace Trainer|Cooltrainer}} Reena{{sup/2|GSC}} / {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Reena{{sup/4|HGSS}}, on a north-south segment east of the starting location. The beginning of this segment is also the western terminus of an express path that originates on {{rt|26|Kanto}}.<br />
<br />
After {{pkmn|battle|battling}}, Reena will offer to exchange numbers in the [[Pokégear]] for future rematches.<br />
<br />
East of Reena, the bridge turns east once again, becoming Route 26 eight paces to the east.<br />
<br />
There are two water paths, both of which are optional.<br />
<br />
===Western water path===<br />
Directly south of the west entrance to the [[Tohjo Falls]] is a shoreline separating the land-bound route from a [[Water tile|water]] path. The path on water turns east shortly after heading south from the shore, paralleling Route 27 to its terminus on a tiny patch of land containing a {{DL|Vitamin|Rare Candy}}.<br />
<br />
===Eastern water path===<br />
The eastern [[Water tile|water]] path is a southern extension to the large water body that encompasses most of eastern Route 27 and southern {{rt|26|Kanto}}. The start of the path is at a {{wp|whirlpool}} southeast of Reena's location. The use of {{m|Whirlpool}} is necessary to pass. The path then turns east, landing on an island containing {{tc|Bird Keeper}} Jose, another {{pkmn|Trainer}} who will offer to exchange numbers in the [[Pokégear]], as well as {{TM|22|SolarBeam}}{{sup/2|GSC}} or {{TM|02|Dragon Claw}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}.<br />

==Differences among generations==<br />
In the [[Generation II]] games, although it is located in [[Kanto]], this [[route]] uses only [[Johto]] tile sets as opposed to Kanto's. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the tile sets are instead Johto-style on the west end and Kanto-style on the east end.<br />
<br />
Also in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, after beating the {{DL|Elite Four|Kanto/Johto Elite Four|Elite Four}} for the first time and boarding the [[S.S. Aqua]], the {{pkmn|battle}} music changes from the Johto style to the Kanto style. This change was not present in the original {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} nor in {{game|Crystal}}. This also occurs in the [[Tohjo Falls]], {{ka|Victory Road}}, {{rt|26|Kanto|Routes 26}} and {{rtn|28|Kanto}}.<br />
<br />
Like on Route 28 in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the {{player}} is unable to {{m|fly}} to Johto from this route but can fly to both Kanto and Johto from Route 26 and the [[Indigo Plateau]] despite Route 27 being closer to Johto. In Generation II, the player can only fly to Johto from Route 26-27 and Indigo Plateau prior to boarding the S.S. Aqua the first time. After arriving in [[Vermilion City]], the player cannot fly to Johto from anywhere in Kanto, which includes Routes 26 to 28 and the Indigo Plateau.<br />

'''Route 27''' (Japanese: '''２７ばんどうろ''' ''Route 27'') is a route in southwest [[Kanto]], connecting {{rt|26|Kanto}} and [[New Bark Town]] in [[Johto]].<br />
<br />
==Route description==<br />
Route 27 begins as a [[Water tile|water]]-logged [[route]] at its western terminus, requiring {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to {{m|surf}} east from [[New Bark Town]] to reach the first area of land along the route. After making landfall for the first time, a helpful Trainer near the shore will notify other Trainers that they have officially entered [[Kanto]]. The route continues east to a three-way intersection. The east path leads to the lower portion of a ledge and, ultimately, a dead end. The lack of a through route to the east forces Trainers to the north, where the path meets the western portal of the [[Tohjo Falls]].<br />
<br />
A Trainer awaits at the eastern portal, battling unsuspecting Trainers who exit the area. Also around this area is a house owned by a woman who can detect how devoted a {{player}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is to them. If a Trainer shows her that their lead Pokémon is attached to them, the woman will give them {{TM|37|Sandstorm}}. This prize is only attainable once regardless of how many different Pokémon are shown to her. South of the house is the aforementioned ledge used to bypass the Tohjo Falls when heading west along the route.<br />
<br />
The route crosses a pond before resuming its course on land. This area of the route is home to the lone patch of grass along Route 27. The path of Route 27 follows the grass southeast, passing a Trainer amongst the grass, before arriving at a bridge. There are two Trainers near the starting point, with a third, {{tc|Ace Trainer|Cooltrainer}} Reena{{sup/2|GSC}} / {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Reena{{sup/4|HGSS}}, on a north-south segment east of the starting location. The beginning of this segment is also the western terminus of an express path that originates on {{rt|26|Kanto}}.<br />
<br />
After {{pkmn|battle|battling}}, Reena will offer to exchange numbers in the [[Pokégear]] for future rematches.<br />
<br />
East of Reena, the bridge turns east once again, becoming Route 26 eight paces to the east.<br />
<br />
There are two water paths, both of which are optional.<br />
<br />
===Western water path===<br />
Directly south of the west entrance to the [[Tohjo Falls]] is a shoreline separating the land-bound route from a [[Water tile|water]] path. The path on water turns east shortly after heading south from the shore, paralleling Route 27 to its terminus on a tiny patch of land containing a {{DL|Vitamin|Rare Candy}}.<br />
<br />
===Eastern water path===<br />
The eastern [[Water tile|water]] path is a southern extension to the large water body that encompasses most of eastern Route 27 and southern {{rt|26|Kanto}}. The start of the path is at a {{wp|whirlpool}} southeast of Reena's location. The use of {{m|Whirlpool}} is necessary to pass. The path then turns east, landing on an island containing {{tc|Bird Keeper}} Jose, another {{pkmn|Trainer}} who will offer to exchange numbers in the [[Pokégear]], as well as {{TM|22|SolarBeam}}{{sup/2|GSC}} or {{TM|02|Dragon Claw}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}.<br />

==Differences among generations==<br />
In the [[Generation II]] games, although it is located in [[Kanto]], this [[route]] uses only [[Johto]] tile sets as opposed to Kanto's. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the tile sets are instead Johto-style on the west end and Kanto-style on the east end.<br />
<br />
Also in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, after beating the {{DL|Elite Four|Kanto/Johto Elite Four|Elite Four}} for the first time and boarding the [[S.S. Aqua]], the {{pkmn|battle}} music changes from the Johto style to the Kanto style. This change was not present in the original {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} nor in {{game|Crystal}}. This also occurs in the [[Tohjo Falls]], {{ka|Victory Road}}, {{rt|26|Kanto|Routes 26}} and {{rtn|28|Kanto}}.<br />
<br />
Like on Route 28 in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the {{player}} is unable to {{m|fly}} to Johto from this route but can fly to both Kanto and Johto from Route 26 and the [[Indigo Plateau]] despite Route 27 being closer to Johto. In Generation II, the player can only fly to Johto from Route 26-27 and Indigo Plateau prior to boarding the S.S. Aqua the first time. After arriving in [[Vermillion City]], the player cannot fly to Johto from anywhere in Kanto, which includes Routes 26 to 28 and the Indigo Plateau.<br />

'''Marill''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マリル''' ''Maril'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Fairy}} Pokémon. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Water}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Azurill}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]] and evolves into {{p|Azumarill}} starting at [[level]] 18.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
Marill is a small, blue bipedal Pokémon. It has a nearly spherical shape with a white belly, and has round ears with red insides. These sensitive ears can detect distant sounds. Its arms and feet are short and possess no visible digits. There is a blue, bubble-like ball at the tip of its zigzagging black tail. The tail is flexible and configured to stretch, and the ball is full of oil. The oil is lighter than water, and keeps Marill afloat in the water. [[AG032|In the anime]], Marill was shown to be able to bounce on its tail.<br />
<br />
Marill is able to swim in strong water currents without being slowed down by the water's resistance, due to its water-repellent fur. Marill feeds on aquatic plants in addition to fishing for food. When it dives, its tail can be seen bobbing on the water's surface. It will anchor its tail around a tree when fishing at the edge of a fast moving stream. It lives on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water's edge}}.<br />
<br />

''This Aqua Mouse Pokémon evolves into Azumarill. The round ball on the end of its tail acts like a flotation device, so it can float safely on the roughest of water conditions. It resides on [[Mt. Mortar]] in seclusion; few of the creatures are ever seen. Marill's cuteness has earned it a large and loyal fan base.''<br />

==Trivia==<br />
[[File:Alpha mariru.png|thumb|150px|Early concept art for Marill]]<br />
* Marill's early design had a pink body instead of blue, noticeably smaller ears, and lacked the erratic tail pattern.<br />
* For months prior to the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Marill was often incorrectly referred to as "Pikablu", likely because of its slight resemblance to {{p|Pikachu}}.<br />
** It is even referred to as "Pikablu" on the [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards|Topps trading cards for the first movie]].<br />
* Because {{p|Azurill}}'s gender ratio does not match that of its evolved forms and its evolution is not dependent on gender, being female 75% of the time while Marill and Azumarill are female only 50% of the time, female Azurill have a one in three chance of evolving into a male Marill prior to [[Generation VI]]. Whether or not this will happen is determined by its [[personality value]]. Azurill is the only Pokémon to do this.<br />
* Marill's name was originally spelled '''Marril''', as shown in some merchandise for [[M01|the first movie]].<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Marill may be based upon a combination of a {{wp|mouse}} and a {{wp|beach ball}} or possibly a {{wp|personal flotation device}} or {{wp|lifebuoy}}. Its body and ears also resemble a {{wp|water molecule}}.<br />
<br />
It may be possibly based on the {{wp|rakali}} (''Hydromys chrysogaster''), who are said to live in burrows on the banks of rivers, lakes and estuaries, and are commonly known as {{wp|water rat}}s.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Marill and Maril may be a combination of 丸い ''marui'' (''round'' or ''circular'') or 鞠 ''mari'' (ball), 瑠璃 ''ruri'' ({{wp|lapis lazuli}}), and possibly ''rill'' (a small river or brook). It may also be derived from マリンブルー ''marine blue'', an old name for {{wp|navy blue}}.<br />

'''Azurill''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルリリ''' ''Ruriri'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Fairy}} [[baby Pokémon]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Marill}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]], which evolves into {{p|Azumarill}} starting at [[level]] 18.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
Azurill is a round, blue mouse Pokémon. It has circular ears with pink insides. There are two white dots on its cheeks, and it has black eyes. Its thin, black, zigzagging tail has a large blue ball at the end. The ball is bouncy and packed with the nutrients it needs to be able to grow. The ball can also be used as a flotation device. It can be seen bouncing and playing on this rubbery tail. The tail can also be spun around like a lasso. When the tail is thrown, the body can go as far as 33 feet (10 meters). It uses its tail for fighting opponents bigger than itself. It lives at the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water's edge.}}<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Azurill has the lowest base stat total of all {{t|Normal}}- and {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon.<br />
* Azurill is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 190.<br />
* With Huge Power, Azurill can reach the highest Attack stat of all Baby Pokémon, capping at a maximum of 304.<br />
* Polka dots are known in Japan as 水玉 ''mizutama'', literally meaning water balls. This might explain why Azurill is known as the Polka Dot Pokémon.<br />
** This name also reflects the way Azurill is indirectly related with {{t|Water}}.<br />
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], because Azurill's gender ratio does not match that of its evolved forms and its evolution is not dependent on gender, being female 75% of the time while Marill and Azumarill are female only 50% of the time, female Azurill has a 1/3 chance of evolving into a male Marill (depending on its [[personality value]]). Azurill is the only Pokémon to do this. In Generation VI, Azurill retains its gender upon evolving, despite the gender ratios still differing.<br />
* Azurill, along with {{p|Wailmer}} and {{p|Kecleon}}, was one of the first {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} revealed, in early March 2001.<br />
** This is similar to how its evolved form {{p|Marill}} was introduced before [[Generation II]].<br />
* Azurill has the lowest base stat total of all baby Pokémon.<br />
* Azurill is the only Pokémon which evolves through [[friendship]] whose evolved form evolves by level.<br />
* Azurill is the shortest {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Azurill appears to be a {{wp|mouse}} combined with a {{wp|beach ball}} or possibly a {{wp|personal flotation device}} or {{wp|buoy|lifebuoy}}.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Azurill is a combination of ''{{wp|Azure (color)|azure}}'' (a shade of blue) or ''azul'' (Spanish and Portuguese for ''blue'') and ''rill'' (a small river or brook).<br />
<br />
Ruriri may be a corruption of 瑠璃 ''ruri'' ({{wp|lapis lazuli}}) which is theoretically in {{p|Marill}}'s—its evolution—name, or it may be a variation of {{wp|azurite}} (a blue rock).<br />

== Title ==<br />
<br />
According to the first line of this article, the in-game term is "Multi Battle," not "Tag Battle." Why, then, is this page located at the latter? [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 17:31, 7 February 2014 (UTC)<br />
:I think it may be at that because whoever named the article didn't attempt using the link battle feature in gen. 3 or 4, and named it with the animé's name.

::As no action had been made for several months, and there was no dissent against making the move, I moved the article and modified its contents accordingly.

:::For the record, I agree that this page should use the game terminology than the anime one. Though I don't exactly like how this was moved without an admin approval.

== Two unrelated trainers? ==<br />
<br />
Is it true that two unrelated trainers can see the player at the same time, and it would start a multi battle? I thought all multi battles were specifically programmed into the game as such. And you can face more than 6 Pokemon?<br />
<br />
I've never seen this.<br />
<br />
[[User:Flarn2006|Flarn2006]] ([[User talk:Flarn2006|talk]]) 22:19, 8 September 2015 (UTC)<br />
:I think the "two unrelated Trainers can see the player at the same time" thing mostly happened in RSE or so. At any rate, I think they've pretty much abandoned that sort of situation; I think these days they avoid placing Trainers in positions where that might (theoretically at least) be possible. So in recent games, yes, Multi Battles are generally programmed (i.e., not optional). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:47, 8 September 2015 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Definition ==<br />
<br />
In my opinion, our current definition is way too vague; two Trainers teaming up against one or two opponents would basically involve any battle against {{tc|Sis and Bro}}, and I guess those should not be Multi Battles. I've browsed Bulbanews for information about Multi Battles, but couldn't find anything helpful. I found an [http://www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/about/video-game-glossary/ official definition] from pokemon.com, however, that says a Multi Battle is "a variation of Double Battles, where two Pokémon battle at a time for each team, but each Pokémon is controlled by a separate Trainer". So, if there are no counter-arguments/objections, I would like to redifine our definition accordingly (here, at [[Double Battle]], and at [[Pokémon battle]]). Notably, this would imply that, opposed to what our page currently says, battles against wild Pokémon and battles triggered when two different Trainers see the player (and only him) at the same time, are actually ''not'' Multi Battles (but Double Battles). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:22, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
:In that case, I believe this page should be adjusted to fit the official definition, and any information that needs to be removed should be relocated to the Double Battle article. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:30, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
::I don't really like moving battles between the player and two separate Trainers to [[Double Battle]]. Frankly, the same Pokemon.com page defines Double Battle as "each team [battling] with two Pokémon at a time". Admittedly, this isn't quite as clear as Multi Battle, but the player vs two separate Trainers is still, at best, somewhere ''between'' those two strict definitions. And IMO it's better described as a Multi Battle instead of a Double Battle.<br />
::As far as {{cat|Double Battle Trainer classes}}, I think we could refine the definition of Multi Battle (or make a point of clarifying) to talk about the ''[[party|parties]]'' that each side draws from. Double Battle Trainer classes still only have one party, and the player has one party: that's a Double Battle, at least in the storyline of the games. You'll still never be able to wipe out "one opponent" in a Double Battle Trainer class before the other (i.e., while the other person still has more than one Pokemon they can send out).<br />
::I suppose I can see, from a sort of high-level view, how, in battling against a pair of siblings, you "should" consider them "separate" Trainers (each controlling Pokemon in the battle separately), but those Double Battle Trainer classes are still fundamentally different than what we currently call Multi Battles... (There may not actually be an entirely pretty way to resolve this. I tend to think that the mechanical differences should "win" out, though; i.e., how you can't just target and exhaust a specific "Trainer" in Double Battle Trainer classes.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:47, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::According to their definitions, battles against two separate Trainers are Double Battles, but they are not Multi Battles. (And also not between the lines.) Who are we to define? The parties idea is good for the Trainer classes, but those should be just like two different cases of Double Battles then (one where you can wipe out one Trainer/party, one where you cannot). Also, battles against two wild Pokémon should still be Double Battles, just sayin'. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:08, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::You may be right. (Multi Battles are a subset of Double Battles.) I don't like the idea that it takes away some granularity from how we could use "Multi Battle", but it appears we [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=%22battle+with%22+incategory%3Aroutes&go=Go already] just refer to those two-Trainers-vs-the-player situations as Double Battles (so at least we wouldn't have to go "fixing" all that).<br />
::::...Is there actually even any place we've called a battle between one Trainer on one side and two on another a Multi Battle, or is that problem just in the definition/intro? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:22, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::::As I said, I searched tha 'news, where we have not. For the games, I tend to believe no, as there are no prominent examples on this page (and I cannot think of any that's just missing here). For the anime, this page seems to imply that Jessie and James initiate Tag Battles all along, or at least at their first appearance, when they see Ash or someone. From a brief look, the episode articles (and [[EP002]] in particular) seem not to say so, unless it really ''is'' a proper Tag/Multi Battle. Maybe someone who has the episode at hand could clarify whether Misty says something like "Hey, TR, these Tag Battles are against the rules", or just "Hey, TR, this is against the rules" (and we've just called it a Tag Battle on sight). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:56, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::::I like how Double Battle starts off the anime section with "While Team Rocket had conducted "illegal" Double Battles since the third episode, the first official Double Battle occurred in...", and believe that (or similar) should be used as the wording here. Ash's first Multi Battle should then be in ''[[AG072|The Bicker the Better]]'', as mentioned on the page.<br />
::::::(Side note: [[EP108]]'s Japanese title seems to refer to a Double Battle with タッグバトル, but also might just refer to nothing, or to something else.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 12:09, 18 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::::::I've changed it (but I decided not to actually ''quote'' the glossary, as its scope is limited to video games). I also noted that the quotes in this article support the redefinition. And I moved "Team Battle" out of here as well. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 13:07, 21 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Revisiting this topic… Twins Harper and Sarah (Lana's sisters) call their Double Battle (3 trainers total; 2-on-1) a Multi Battle. I think it's safe to say then that the terminology is in fact a Multi Battle for all battles that include multiple trainers on either side, regardless of whether it's 2-on-1 or 2-on-2. The 2-on-1 trainer battles should be returned to this Multi Battle article. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] ([[User talk:Kumori Satosuke|talk]]) 00:24, 13 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:Could you quote them? In the [[User:Abcboy#Text dumps|text dump]], I can't find it. (But if they said so, that would be a ''contradiction'' to what the glossary says.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:22, 17 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::Unfortunately, I'm well past that point in the game. Maybe there's a let's play or something that could provide video evidence? I wrote this message last month right after I beat them because I was surprised that they called it that, given the way Multi Battle is defined here.

<div>'''Easter eggs''' are hidden parts of a game or software that are usually discovered by more experienced players. There have been a number of Easter eggs throughout the Pokémon franchise. In the {{pkmn|games}}, there are several items, locations and events that are considered by some to be Easter eggs.<br />
<br />
==Easter eggs in the games==<br />
===Truck===<br />
[[File:SS Truck.png|thumb|200px|right|The truck, as it appears in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}]]<br />
A major Easter egg in the game is [[S.S. Anne#Rumors|the truck]] from the [[Generation I|first generation]] games. In Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as their remakes {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, there is a truck which appears in the S.S. Anne's port which serves no evident purpose except as scenery. With scenery being very sparse in the [[Generation I]] games, and this being one of the few sprites with no other purpose than to exist in one spot, fans began speculating that another purpose existed for this truck, and that it could perhaps be moved with {{m|Strength}}. Thus, a popular rumor sprang up that a [[Poké Ball]] containing {{p|Mew}} could be found underneath. The only flaw with this was that the [[HM]] for {{m|Strength}} could only be obtained after getting Cut, which required the S.S. Anne leaving. There were a number of ways that players went around this problem. The first, and most obvious was trading a Pokémon that knew Cut into their game. The second involved getting the HM from the Ship's Captain then battling a Trainer and losing, having them run to the [[Pokémon Center]] without the ship leaving. They could progress through the game until Surf and Strength were acquired and then attempt the truck. The rumor was proven false.<br />
<br />
Later, in the [[Generation III]] remakes of Red and Blue, the truck is still present, however, there is actually something of a point to get to it this time around. On its pier, if the player walks down a bit, they can find a hidden {{DL|Status condition healing item|Lava Cookie}}, unavailable until [[Sevii Islands|later in the game]]. The truck had been positioned there, as an Easter egg, due to the old, popular rumors that were spreading during the time of Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}.<br />
<br />
===Diamond dust===<br />
[[File:Diamond Dust IV.png|frame|right|Diamond dust in Snowpoint]]<br />
Diamond dust (Japanese: '''ダイヤモンドダスト''' ''diamond dust'') is a special variation of {{weather|Hail|snow}} that has appeared in select locations and at select times in [[core series]] games since [[Generation IV]]. Diamond dust has no effect in battle.<br />
<br />
On January 10, 2008, Director [[Junichi Masuda]] [[:n:Masuda: 'Please play Pokémon Diamond/Pearl on Jan. 12'|announced]] on his blog that fans should play {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} on January 12, his birthday, for a surprise. The surprise was discovered to be sparkling diamond dust falling in [[Snowpoint City]] instead of the normal, light snow.<br />
<br />

[[File:Secret wallpaper.png|frame|right|Team Galactic Wallpaper]]<br />
Another Easter egg in the games is secret wallpapers for the [[Pokémon Storage System]] that can only be unlocked via outside resources in {{game|Emerald}}, {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, and {{game|Heart Gold and Soul Silver|s}}. A special phrase must be entered in-game to unlock these wallpapers, with the phrase depending on the player's [[Trainer ID number|ID number]]. Online generators at places like [[Filb.de]] can be used to obtain these phrases.<br />
<br />
In {{game|Emerald}}, the player may speak to the father of a sick girl named [[Walda]] in [[Rustboro City]] to obtain a "Friends" wallpaper by telling him a word that will make Walda laugh. It is possible to unlock a variety of wallpapers, with different combinations of background and patterns and colors, by telling the father different words, but only one Friends wallpaper may be unlocked at a time.<br />
<br />
In the [[Generation IV]] games, eight wallpapers can be unlocked. Unlike in Emerald, all eight wallpapers can be unlocked at the same time, each requiring its own unique phrase. These wallpapers differ between the Diamond and Pearl, Platinum, and HeartGold and SoulSilver games. In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the player may speak to a TV producer at [[Jubilife TV]] to unlock the wallpapers. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player may speak to [[Primo]] in the [[Violet City]] [[Pokémon Center]] to unlock them.<br />
<br />
===Other Easter eggs===<br />
[[File:Sakurai cat.png|thumb|right|The hidden cat]]<br />
*In {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, when the player uploads a {{p|Pikachu}} from {{v2|Yellow}}, it will be voiced by [[Ikue Ohtani]] and have unique sound effects. Likewise, if a Pikachu or {{p|Raichu}} that knows {{m|Surf}} is used, it will have a unique attack animation. This animation also occurs in {{Pokémon XD}} and [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]].<br />
*An Easter egg can be found in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] while the player is playing in {{OBP|Pokémon Stadium 2|stage}} stage when the stage is in Ice Mode. If the player angles the camera and looks through the window of the cabin that Snorunt is in, a poster of a pet cat can be seen on the wall. The cat is rumored to belong to Sakurai, but he announced that it is false.<br />

== Does switching out reduce Toxic to normal poison? ==<br />
<br />
"The N value of Toxic resets via Haze, switching or ending the battle, but not by Rest." - OK, but is the N value specific to each mon? If they switch out and then switch back in, does the counter reset? Are they still badly poisoned or just normal poisoned? Also does fainting (and later being revived) reset the counter? [[User:HyperHacker|⬡]] ([[User talk:HyperHacker|talk]]) 21:26, 7 March 2016 (UTC)<br />
:Updated from the {{status|poison}} page. Some of that does contradict this page, though... [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:30, 7 March 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Poisons Steel-types in Gen VII!?? ==<br />
I was fighting a Salazzle with my Metang, and it used Toxic on Metang. The badly poisoned status was induced, but then it immediately expelled the poison with the dialogue used by Pokémon that are affectionate from Pokémon Amie/Refresh. I assume that's just because my Metang loves me, not because that happens with Steel-types in general. I didn't think Steel-types could be poisoned? Is this a new game change?

::::That's a relatively arbitrary distinction. All Pokémon names are written in Katakana for emphasis – the same way Pokémon without nicknames in the English versions used to be written in all-caps. The meaning is the same. Yes, some moves are written in katakana, but mostly just those that are drawing on foreign language words, such as in the case of Aqua Jet. This is a case where kairiki is a proper Japanese term for "Super Strength," is the pun behind Machamp, is Machamp's signature technique, and is also the reason that Machamp is used as the Ride Pokémon to replace Strength in Alola. It's definitely notable trivia. Perhaps you'd like to rewrite the trivia in a fashion that you deem most proper, but otherwise I plan to rewrite this myself, taking into account these grammatical caveats you've pointed out.

'''Strength''' (Japanese: '''かいりき''' ''Super Strength'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[HM04]] in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} through {{gen|VI}}. In [[Generation VII]], it is the [[signature move]] of {{p|Machamp}}.<br />
<br />
==Effect==<br />
===In battle===<br />
Strength inflicts damage and has no secondary effect.<br />
<br />
===Outside of battle===<br />
====Generations I to III====<br />
Players can move round boulders around the field by walking into them whilst Strength is active. Many puzzles in the games require boulders to be moved around in a certain way with Strength. If the area is left, the boulders will resume their original positions and the puzzle needs to be solved again if the player wishes to go back through the area. However, the boulders will not reset after being dropped from one floor to the floor below, such as in the [[Ice Path]] and [[Blackthorn Gym]].<br />
<br />
Strength can be activated at any time.<br />
<br />
====Generation IV====<br />
Strength can now only be activated when there is a boulder in the vicinity.<br />
<br />
====Generation V====<br />
Boulders are now significantly bigger in size and are required to be pushed into holes and walked across, as opposed to pushed into corners and walked around. Once pushed into a hole, the boulders typically do not reset upon subsequent visits, and they do not need to be pushed again.<br />
<br />

Strength sends the target flying to another tile in the room. The thrown Pokémon will bounce off of a single hostile Pokémon before landing as long as at least one is in range, causing both of them take 10 damage. <!--If no additional hostile Pokémon is in range, the thrown Pokémon will land on a tile adjacent to one of the user's teammates.--><br />

==Trivia==<br />
* * Strength shares its Japanese name, かいりき ''kairiky,'' with [[Machamp (Pokémon)|Machamp]]. As of [[Generation VII]], Strength has become the [[signature move]] of Machamp. <br />
* If {{m|Secret Power}} is used in a building in Generation III, it will display the animation of Strength.<br />
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], [[Hoenn]] was the only region without holes for boulders to fall into. With the release of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, this is no longer true.<br />
* Although HM moves can't be used outside of battle in [[Orre]], [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] has three locations housing puzzles similar to Strength puzzles in other regions:<br />
** The first two puzzle are located at the [[S.S. Libra]] and [[Cipher Key Lair]], where several areas are blocked off by big wooden crates, which the [[Michael|player]] must push to either clear way, close a gap, or press a big switch in order to proceed or access an item. Similar to Strength boulders before Generation V, these crates will reset if the player leaves and re-enters the area.<br />
** The third puzzle can be found at [[Citadark Isle]], where the player must push big metal blocks down small cliffs to stop flows of lava in order to progress and access certain items. These blocks will not reset once pushed down to their proper spots.<br />

<div>I was playing LeafGreen, got the strenght move and gave it to Snorlax. I went over to the boulder to the right in the house where you obtained the HM, tried to use it, and it told me that I need to have a special badge to do this. Could any one help me out here? --[[User:Bentendo|Bentendo]] 02:18, 22 March 2007 (UTC)<br />
<br />
See [[Badges]] to see which are needed for which HM moves. In this case, it's the Rainbowbadge. --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] 02:30, 22 March 2007 (UTC)<br />

== Outside of battle ==<br />
<br />
''"The Pokémon using it will grow and you will have the ability to push a boulder(only in HeartGold and SoulSilver versions)."''<br />
<br />
This phrasing is somewhat misleading - it seems to suggest that the ability to push boulders with Strength is exclusive to HG and SS, while it probably means to say that the visual growth effect is only in those games. Can it be reworded a bit? --[[User:Tayrtahn|Tayrtahn]] 16:25, 13 January 2011 (UTC)<br />
: They never grew when using it outside of battle for me unless they were on steroids or something I don't know about. [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 16:42, 13 January 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
==Gen V?==<br />
should it be put somewhere that prior to gen v, when one left the area the Boulder will respawn at the same place, but in gen v, once its pushed into a hole it stays there? <[[User:Plokool|Plokool]] 18:21, 6 November 2011 (UTC)><br />
<br />
:Probably in the same area where it notes the size difference in boulders.

An SOS Battle is a battle in which a [[wild Pokémon]] calls for help from allies, turning a normal one-on-one wild battle into a two-on-one battle.<br />
<br />
In Pokémon Sun and Moon, once the player clears the first trial with [[Ilima]] at [[Verdant Cavern]], battles with wild Pokémon can turn into SOS Battles. Trial Pokémon (except Totem Pokémon), [[Island Scan]] Pokémon, [[Legendary Pokémon]], [[Ultra Beast]]s, and the [[guardian deities]] do not call for help. [[Totem Pokémon]] always call for help, but use different mechanics to other wild Pokémon.<br />
<br />
==Mechanics==<br />
===Totem Pokémon===<br />
In battles with a Totem Pokémon, at the end of the first turn, it will always call for help. A Totem Pokémon's calls are always answered. Totem Pokémon only have a preset set of allies they can call during battle (usually two); once those allies have [[fainting|fainted]], they cannot be called again.<br />
<br />
If a Totem Pokémon has multiple possible allies it can call, the ally it calls depends on the Totem Pokémon's current {{stat|HP}}.<br />
<br />
===Non-Totem Pokémon===<br />
In battles with non-Totem Pokémon, at the end of the turn, a wild Pokémon that can call for help may call for an ally; however, its call is not always answered. The likelihood of a wild Pokémon calling for help depends on its species. Some species (including most Pokémon that can appear exclusively as allies in SOS Battles) cannot call for help.<br />
<br />
Most Pokémon can summon allies of the same [[Pokémon (species)|species]], but some can summon other Pokémon in their [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|family]], and some can summon other unrelated Pokémon. For some species, the Pokémon that a wild Pokémon can call varies with location.<br />
<br />
Non-Totem Pokémon are more likely to call for help after the player sends out a Pokémon with {{a|Intimidate}}, {{a|Pressure}} or {{a|Unnerve}} as its Ability or uses an [[Adrenaline Orb]]. The Adrenaline Orb can only be used once per battle and will fail if used repeatedly (wasting a turn without being consumed).<br />
<br />
Non-Totem Pokémon that have a {{DL|status condition|non-volatile status|non-volatile status condition}}<!--paralysis, poison and burn tested and confirmed; have not yet tested sleep and freeze, but it seems very likely that they would act the same way--> or are in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move such as {{m|Dig}} will not attempt to call for allies.<br />
<br />
If there is only one wild Pokémon present, non-Totem Pokémon may call for help again. Within an SOS Battle, the chance for the called Pokémon to be {{Shiny}} or have perfect {{IV}}s increases with the number of answered calls. After 255 Pokémon have been called into battle, the counter rolls over and these rate go back to their default values but will continue to rise as usual after more Pokémon are called in. Regardless of this, whenever a normal wild battle becomes an SOS Battle, the [[Effort value|EV]] yields of all new Pokémon are doubled until the battle ends entirely.<br />
<br />
====SOS Battle allies====<br />
Most non-Totem Pokémon only call for allies of the same species as themselves. The list below describes all Pokémon that can summon allies that are not of the same species as the original encounter.<br />

According to the first line of this article, the in-game term is "Multi Battle," not "Tag Battle." Why, then, is this page located at the latter? [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 17:31, 7 February 2014 (UTC)<br />

== Two unrelated trainers? ==<br />
<br />
Is it true that two unrelated trainers can see the player at the same time, and it would start a multi battle? I thought all multi battles were specifically programmed into the game as such. And you can face more than 6 Pokemon?<br />
<br />
I've never seen this.<br />
<br />
[[User:Flarn2006|Flarn2006]] ([[User talk:Flarn2006|talk]]) 22:19, 8 September 2015 (UTC)<br />
:I think the "two unrelated Trainers can see the player at the same time" thing mostly happened in RSE or so. At any rate, I think they've pretty much abandoned that sort of situation; I think these days they avoid placing Trainers in positions where that might (theoretically at least) be possible. So in recent games, yes, Multi Battles are generally programmed (i.e., not optional). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:47, 8 September 2015 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Definition ==<br />
<br />
In my opinion, our current definition is way too vague; two Trainers teaming up against one or two opponents would basically involve any battle against {{tc|Sis and Bro}}, and I guess those should not be Multi Battles. I've browsed Bulbanews for information about Multi Battles, but couldn't find anything helpful. I found an [http://www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/about/video-game-glossary/ official definition] from pokemon.com, however, that says a Multi Battle is "a variation of Double Battles, where two Pokémon battle at a time for each team, but each Pokémon is controlled by a separate Trainer". So, if there are no counter-arguments/objections, I would like to redifine our definition accordingly (here, at [[Double Battle]], and at [[Pokémon battle]]). Notably, this would imply that, opposed to what our page currently says, battles against wild Pokémon and battles triggered when two different Trainers see the player (and only him) at the same time, are actually ''not'' Multi Battles (but Double Battles). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:22, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
:In that case, I believe this page should be adjusted to fit the official definition, and any information that needs to be removed should be relocated to the Double Battle article. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:30, 14 August 2016 (UTC)<br />
::I don't really like moving battles between the player and two separate Trainers to [[Double Battle]]. Frankly, the same Pokemon.com page defines Double Battle as "each team [battling] with two Pokémon at a time". Admittedly, this isn't quite as clear as Multi Battle, but the player vs two separate Trainers is still, at best, somewhere ''between'' those two strict definitions. And IMO it's better described as a Multi Battle instead of a Double Battle.<br />
::As far as {{cat|Double Battle Trainer classes}}, I think we could refine the definition of Multi Battle (or make a point of clarifying) to talk about the ''[[party|parties]]'' that each side draws from. Double Battle Trainer classes still only have one party, and the player has one party: that's a Double Battle, at least in the storyline of the games. You'll still never be able to wipe out "one opponent" in a Double Battle Trainer class before the other (i.e., while the other person still has more than one Pokemon they can send out).<br />
::I suppose I can see, from a sort of high-level view, how, in battling against a pair of siblings, you "should" consider them "separate" Trainers (each controlling Pokemon in the battle separately), but those Double Battle Trainer classes are still fundamentally different than what we currently call Multi Battles... (There may not actually be an entirely pretty way to resolve this.

:::According to their definitions, battles against two separate Trainers are Double Battles, but they are not Multi Battles. (And also not between the lines.) Who are we to define?

::::You may be right. (Multi Battles are a subset of Double Battles.)

:::::As I said, I searched tha 'news, where we have not. For the games, I tend to believe no, as there are no prominent examples on this page (and I cannot think of any that's just missing here).

From a brief look, the episode articles (and [[EP002]] in particular) seem not to say so, unless it really ''is'' a proper Tag/Multi Battle. Maybe someone who has the episode at hand could clarify whether Misty says something like "Hey, TR, these Tag Battles are against the rules", or just "Hey, TR, this is against the rules" (and we've just called it a Tag Battle on sight).

Revisiting this topic… Twins Harper and Sarah (Lana's sisters) call their Double Battle (3 trainers total; 2-on-1) a Multi Battle. I think it's safe to say then that the terminology is in fact a Multi Battle for all battles that include multiple trainers on either side, regardless of whether it's 2-on-1 or 2-on-2. The 2-on-1 trainer battles should be returned to this Multi Battle article.

<div>==Weather and SOS Battles==<br />
I'm not sure how we will want to handle this on the page and on the other location pages but, weather does affect the Pokémon that appear in an SOS Battle. Pokémon such as [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATxHlTuSt44 Castform], Goomy, Poliwhirl, Poliwrath, and Politoed only appear if it is raining. Other Pokémon may also appear with the other weather conditions in play. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 01:18, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:I've so far been able to try an SOS Battle once while it was raining in [[Lush Jungle]]. I ran into a {{p|Trumbeak}}, used an Adrenaline Orb...and it called 14 Trumbeak before I gave up on it.<br />
:I, for one, have only the ''least'' idea what all the conditions of this are. About how common/rare are they when these special allies ''can'' be called? (Can ''only'' the special Pokemon be called, or can the Pokemon's normal allies still be called?) Does it ''matter'' who the original encounter is? (I.e., is there one Pokemon that can call Castform, and another that can call Goomy, and another for Poliwhirl, and another for Poliwrath, and another for Politoed?) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:28, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::Okay, I did a small scale test in Malie Garden during the day in Moon. I can, in part, answer your questions.<br />
::1. Pokémon can summon their normal allies as well as the special Pokémon. They will more commonly summon their normal allies than a special Pokémon (with 10 successful calls from Psyduck in the rain, nine were Psyduck and one was a Poliwhirl). <br />
::2. All Pokémon in the area can summon any of the special Pokémon, as I was able to encounter at least one Poliwhirl with each specie I tested. My guess is that each special Pokémon has a different chance of being summoned for each area (example: Poliwhirl, Poliwrath (day only), Politoad (night only), and Castform are all obtainable through SOS Battles in the rain in Malie Garden, but on Route 17 under the same circumstances, only Castform can be found). This will need to be tested further for more exact percentage chances.<br />

::::Do you guys have reliable/approved encounter slots? I believe there's one for sun, one for rain, one for hail, one for sandstorm (in that order, so maybe try to get your Poliwhirl '''in sun''').

They appear to be called less likely than their species (but that could also be some SOS mechanic like chains or idk what).

<br />
I just realized the Pokedex will show the locations of these weather allies, and Castform appears to be everywhere. Double-checking with the guide (via a third party), I've filled in that table now so it's hopefully complete. Thanks for clarifying some of the things above so we could add this info! I think I know a way to add this to locations, so later on I'll see about doing that.<br />

As a note to myself as much as anything, it may also be nice to note the times these weathers are in effect. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:26, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:Are you sure about the Castforms? I believe they're "the rest of weathers" (all other wheathers than the other weather-exclusives). I have not (yet?) seen a Castform in sand at Haina Desert. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:38, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::More than anything, just look up Castform's locations in the Pokedex. But the guide does list Castform and [something else] in every location listed (and its form matches the indicated weather...Sunny Form notwithstanding). (I'm not 100% certain what you mean, though, so if you do find Castform somewhere, I'd be very happy to know the details.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:44, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::I mean: Does the guidebook say Castform shows up in weather <whatever you listed>? Or just in some weather/at all? Pokédex just says it's there, no weather details. My idea is: you remove whatever weather you need to get something other than Castform, you get only Castform. I found five Gabite, not one Castform in Haina Desert ''in sandstorm''. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:00, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::The guide says things like, ''"When it rains, Castform (Rainy Form) and Sliggoo may appear in battles."'' (This is also specifically about SOS allies.) And the Pokedex shows all the weather allies basically the same, whether Castform or Goomy or whoever. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 19:06, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::::I did a decent amount of battles in Haina Desert. In nearly half an hour during sunshine, neither Gabite nor Castform appeared. (Relating to what I said above, I believe the slot I initially thought to be "sun" is "rain" as well. Which makes senses for the Polis final forms, I'll get back to that below.) In rain, Castform appeared after ten minutes (and immediately transformed to Rainy Form), and/but no Gabite appeared. Same-species allies always appeared, more often.<br />
:::::To summarize: I believe that '''between rain, hail, and sandstorm''', extra species can appear in a specific weather per location (Gabite in Haina Desert in sandstorm, Goomy on Route 17 in rain, etc.); if you change the weather to something else of those, Castform can appear instead. In sun, nothing additional can ever appear (I'm not 100% sure on that one, but fairly certain, despite that being very odd).<br />
:::::In addition, the German page Malie Garden says Politoed can show up at night in both Sun and Moon. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 20:44, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::::Can you clarify for me: what's the natural weather condition(s) in Haina Desert?<br />
::::::And are you saying you used something like Sunny Day and Castform appeared?<br />
::::::(If so) By that logic, can you use Rain Dance and get Poliwhirl (or some such, depending on where you are)? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 20:52, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::::::There's a sunny and a sandstorm part. Castform appeared in the sunny part after I used Rain Dance. All other tests I've done were in the sandy part (with or without Drought). Poliwhirl would be in Malie Garden, and according to Adamws above, yes (I don't think there's natural rain, at least not for me now). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 20:56, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::::::Since this requires that the guide be wrong, it'd be best if we can verify Castform appearing in weather it "shouldn't" in each place. If this is verified for a given place, feel free to change it in the table. (And please explain that in-battle weather-changing effects can influence these allies.) FYI, the guide also said Malie Garden gets rain just before night, which jives with what I've seen the one time I saw rain at Brooklet Hill and Lush Jungle (about an hour before night).<br />

:::::::::Castform appeared ''where it shouldn't''. According to what you wrote, it ''should'' appear in sandstorm, but it did in rain (and in everything I've done, it didn't in sandstorm). If what you wrote is what the guide says, I cannot (by nature) verify it is wrong, but it is at least incomplete.<br />
:::::::::I'm a Champion. Haina Desert can be accessed once you completed [[Acerola]]'s trial, Malie Garden as soon as you land on Ula'ula (and Lush Jungle is on Akala). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 21:22, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::::::::I'm not arguing what you wrote or anything...? I'm basically saying, do exactly what you did, and update the table when you can verify something different from what it claims for Castform. (Although, for the sake of completeness, I'd actually be more comfortable if you could also verify that making rain with Rain Dance/whatever in the sandstorm area can also yield Castform.)<br />
::::::::::(And yes, I mean go ahead and presume that it can't be found in the weather the guide indicated. If anyone does find it in that weather later, we can revisit it.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:32, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />

{{indent}}Just sharing what I have now: datamining suggests there are apparently six "slots" for weather SOS allies, where the odd ones include Goomy, Poliwhirl, Sliggoo (1), Vanillite, Vanillish (3), and Gabite (5) in locations where they should appear in rain (1), snow (3) and sandstorm (5) respectively. I'm sure they do. Politoed/wrath is in slot 0 for day/night, everything else is always Castform in weather SOS locations. So, everything would make perfect sense if the even slots were for rain, snow, and sandstorm as well, but with a smaller probability; the guidebook wouldn't have lied, it would just have been largely incomplete and veeery misleading. And it would additionally make sense that a user recently found Castform in rain on Exeggutor Island, which is where it should be according to the guidebook. The only problem is that ''I cannot find Castform in Haina Desert's sandstorm''. I've tested for hours, and there's not a single Castform, so the probability is either ''below'' 1% (and very much harder than to find a Shiny), or there is some special requirement. I thought that special requirement to be that the odd-slot ally itself calls for help, except that Gabite don't ever call for help. Having seen the "call rates" from below (Gabite at 0, but ''not'' Poliwhirl), I'm still willing to test it a Malie Garden (but I can't explain the Exeggutor Island thing).

:Castform definitely appears in rain in Lush Jungle. Even if we're not sure what other weathers it appears in, we should add Rain in instead of "Unknown" since it's clear that rain is a known quantity. I've caught it twice during SOS, but only during the afternoon rainfall on my way home from work. I've tried using Rain Dance and other weathers to trigger, but it's so finnicky and the PP limit makes it tough to trigger Castform under Sunny Day/Hail/Sandstorm conditions, at least without weather ability 'mons like Hidden ability Ninetales.

==Chaining SOS Battles==<br />
There appears to be perks for chaining an SOS Battle. I have gotten a Poliwag with 4 perfect IVs and with its Hidden Ability after chaining about 50 Pokémon. This probably should be researched more for other perks, like increased shiny chance. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 01:18, 4 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:According to various sources, chaining an SOS Battle can net you Pokémon with hidden abilities and a maximum of four perfect IVs. Can't test it myself, I have no idea how to do it. But I think it's about time this was added to the article but as well as that, I think the redirect for "chaining" should no longer lead to "Poké Radar" and instead go to a disambiguation page between this one and that one.

== Underlevelled Pokémon ==<br />
<br />
Should it be noted (maybe in a trivia section for example) that it is possible to obtain underlevelled Pokémon through SOS battles (and very easily at that)? It barely requires any effort to find a level 15 Gyarados or a level 30 Wailmer (or a level 10 Salamence, but you'd need a lot of patience for this one). In other games underlevelled Pokémon are usually restricted to a small amount of places, whereas now you can just get them at almost any fishing spot.

<br />
== Breaking a chain ==<br />
<br />
In reponse to [[Special:Diff/2552827|this]], I'll go ahead and share some of my thoughts/experience.<br />
<br />
First: I have encountered a Metapod who called Caterpie and then accidentally fainted Metapod, and the calls continued.<br />
<br />
But my thought was, this could be because both Caterpie and Metapod are in the encounter data; i.e., they have lists of allies if the game is looking up "Does this Pokemon have allies to call here?".<br />
<br />
So, if we want to know if the chain really survives so long as someone in the same family remains active, Metapod/Caterpie aren't really the best way to check it. A number of the other listed SOS allies would work fine, though (particularly the baby Pokemon who often have good call rates), like fainting an Elekid after it calls Electabuzz.<br />
<br />
Another interesting potential consequence of my hypothesized game logic above is, even if a Pokemon wouldn't normally have any allies it could call, if you're in a location with potential weather allies, would it be able to call those? (Say, a Trumbeak called by Oranguru/Passimian in Lush Jungle.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:53, 8 December 2016 (UTC)<br />
:Just tested out the former situation at Wela Volcano Park, and found that Magmar can call more Magby. I tried to see whether it would also call more Magmar, but couldn't get it to do so before it ran out of PP (80 turns) and Struggled itself to death. I didn't keep an exact count, but I'm sure I got a lot more "Its help didn't appear!"s from Magmar than I've ever had from a non-SOS-exclusive Pokémon, as well as far more turns where it didn't even try to call for help than I usually have from a battle in which I've used an Adrenaline Orb. As a result, I have to wonder whether SOS-exclusive Pokémon are perhaps programmed to call for help less often and less successfully? Obviously this is something we can only probably get from datamining, but it's worth keeping in mind.

::I haven't really (consciously) thought about it that way, so Metapod was perhaps about the only bad guy I could've come up with. But I can say that one Gabite I was trying to get to call for help didn't do so (in ~5-10 turns, before it died off Take Down recoil), and the sandstorm was still ongoing. I'm going to try it again with a Ghost mon maybe (especially after what Pumpkinking said), cause it calling Castform ''then'' would really make so much sense for the above section.<br />
::And to Pumpkinking, SnorlaxMonster added that "(t)he likelihood of a wild Pokémon calling for help depends on its species", which would/could explain why Magmar does not call for help as often as Magby do. Also, I'm under the (vague!) impression that calls remain unanswered more often when the AI thinks you're behind or on the edge of losing, when your own HP are low (or something like it, and something else maybe); so ''maybe'' that Magmar was "too strong"???

::::They apparently have the values datamined, but they only believe they're related to SOS Battles, and they certainly don't have a formula.
