== Benkei ==

There are some parallels between this episode and the famous Japanese story/folklore of Benkei.
Benkei was a big warrior, usually depicted with a naginata (a type of big lance), that challenged samurai on duels to win their swords.
Until he dueled against Minamoto no Yoshitsune (a smaller warrior) on a bridge and was defeated, later becoming Yoshitsune's loyal retainer.
After fighting many battles together, they were encircled in a castle. Yoshitsune went into the castle to commit seppuku and Benkei stood guard at the bridge in front of the gate to protect Yoshitsune during the ritual. The soldiers were afraid of coming near Benkei and engaging in combat, so they showered him with arrows. A famous passage from this story tells Benkei died standing upright.
So, in this context, Ash's Galarian Farfetch'd would be Benkei (strong, with big weapon, challenging for duels on a bridge, being defeated and joining the winner and also standing upright after being defeated), and Goh's Kantonian Farfetch'd/Ash's Riolu would be Minamoto no Yoshitsune ("sword fight" with a lighter weapon/winning the duel).--[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] ([[User talk:KurowaSan|talk]]) 17:24, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
: I think that's a little loose, in the same vein you could say Farfetch'd is Little John to Riolu's Robin Hood - which would have British undertones what with them being in Galar, there would need to be more explicit evidence for it to be a legitimate reference [[User:Azure42|Azure/ChromeVoid42]] ([[User talk:Azure42|talk]]) 19:48, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
:: Benkei is also known for always carrying seven weapons, not just a naginata.--[[User:ShallowShaddoll|ShallowShaddoll]] ([[User talk:ShallowShaddoll|talk]]) 21:14, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
:::I believe that at least the bridge duel thing and the standing upright after defeat are very direct references to Benkei's story, as those are the things that usually stand out the most when this story is referenced.　--[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] ([[User talk:KurowaSan|talk]]) 21:51, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

==Trivia==
* MT (Mecha-Tyranitar) is a reference to {{wp|Mecha-Godzilla}}, also referred to as MG, a robotic replica of the giant monster {{wp|Godzilla}}.
* UFO 2 and F-00 have [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique type combinations]].
** In addition, prior to [[Generation VI]] and the introduction of {{p|Inkay}} and {{p|Malamar}}, Brycen-Man's typing was also unique.
* Through the use of [[cheating]], Pokéstar Studios opponents can be made to appear in the wild in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, although as the game will attempt to bring up a nonexistent [[Pokédex]] entry upon capture, the game will [[game freeze|freeze]]. If they are obtained, they can only reside in the {{pkmn|Storage System}}, as any attempt to move them to the [[party]] will cause them to turn into [[Bad Egg]]s.
* Both UFO and UFO 2's designs look similar to {{p|Cascoon}}.

KurowaSan: /* Japanese name pun */

Are we updating the hit ratios to the current 2:2:1:!, as oppossed to the stated 3:3:1:1?

[[User:Dogfish44|Dogfish44]] 18:16, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

==Average damage==
Shouldn't the average damage of Bullet Seed be ~79.17 rather than 75?

Math ->> (25*2)/3 + (25*3)/3 + (25*4)/6 + (25*5)/6 =~ 79.1666666666667

The same should go for the other multi-strike moves (but obviously with different numbers)

[[User:Katrinuh|Katrinuh]] ([[User talk:Katrinuh|talk]]) 13:55, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

:Thanks for bringing it up, but 0.333 is not the same as 1/3, nor is 0.167 the same as 1/6. With the correct proportions, 79.2 is the average power. I'll get the other moves' average powers done as well. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWanna]]BeThe[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|VeryBest]] 15:31, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Uh, what do you mean they're not the same? Obviously 0.333 is just 1/3 rounded to the thousandths place; the same goes for 0.167 and 1/6. We got the same average power (except yours was rounded one place higher), so I don't understand what you mean.

[[User:Katrinuh|Katrinuh]] ([[User talk:Katrinuh|talk]]) 05:32, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
:The difference is presumably that the games themselves use 0.333 and 0.167, not 1/3 and 1/6, so using the fractions will produce different values — minisculely different, yes, but different nonetheless. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 05:45, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

== Japanese name pun ==

The Japanese name of the move is Tane Mashingan (literaly Seed Machine Gun). Obviously, "Mashingan" is just the spelling of machine gun in Japanese, but there is a japanese firearm used by samurai named Tanegashima, which sounds pretty close. I think that might be an intended pun.[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] ([[User talk:KurowaSan|talk]]) 17:03, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
:They really don't sound similar enough that I'd consider it anywhere near likely to be a name origin.--[[User:Funktastic~!|'''It's''' '''Funktastic~!''']][[User talk:Funktastic~!|''話してください'']] 17:13, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
::Really? I don't speak Japanese, but as the original poster presented the situation (i.e., disregard this if they left out key information), it looks like a pretty straightforward pun: ga-shi-ma gets inverted and interpolated with "n"s to produce ma-shi-(n)-ga-(n). It sounds to me like a vaguely reasonable type of thing for us to note. (Again, unless the original poster left out some kind of key information.)

::::I didn't realize it was mentioned in the Japanese wiki. I think that pretty much settles it.

== Evolution ==

I'm not saying it has been confirmed, but who here thinks it is NOT related to Litleo? It either evolves directly from it or evolves from another fiery lion that Litleo evolves into similar to Luxray's relation to Shinx. If the origin of its name has been acknowledged as "pyro" and "roar" I feel this should as well. [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 10:46, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

:It shouldn't be, because we don't know whether the line will go Litleo -> Pyroar or Litleo -> something else -> Pyroar.

I also agree that it has the kanji for fire in it's mane. I'm not sure if seeing other angles will make it anymore obvious though, as it is only visible when seen head on, and is probably the reason the artwork's head is drawn head on. [[User:CoolDudeAl|CoolDudeAl]] ([[User talk:CoolDudeAl|talk]]) 01:29, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Turns out the Pyroar we saw on IGN was a male one. [http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/other_pokemon/ The X and Y site] showed off female artwork along with it.

==Origin/Name Origin==

It seems to be based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amargasaurus as that was a sauropod that had spines running down its neck like Amarusu has. Also the name Amarus just seems to be a contraction of Amaragasaurus. [[User:Zeb|Zeb]] ([[User talk:Zeb|talk]]) 09:00, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
:Completely agree with that. In Japanese, it becomes even more evident, as it's written as アマルガサウルス (AMARUgasauruSU).[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] ([[User talk:KurowaSan|talk]]) 03:15, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

KurowaSan:

==Origin==
I think ''Tyrannosaurus'' would be more accurate origin for Chigorasu than ''Allosaurus''. Given that Chigorasu has short arms and a large head with strong jaws, it has more in common with ''Tyrannosaurus'' in terms of appearance than with ''Allosaurus''. ''Allosaurus'' didn't have much of a bite force like ''Tyrannosaurus'' did and the arm length between the two species is different. ''Allosaurus'' has longer arms as seen here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:AMNH_Allosaurus.jpg and the arms are shorter on ''Tyrannosaurus''. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tyrannosaurus_Rex_Holotype.jpg --[[User:Poke'fan07|Poke'fan07]]
:It's safe to assume it's based on any theropod dinosaur from the family [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrannosauridae Tyrannosauridae] (Small hands with 2 fingers, big heads...), it could be Tarbosaurus, Albertosaurus, or most likely Tyrannosaurus. Perhaps it even shares some traits with [http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abelisauridae Abelisaurids] like Carnotaurus given it also has horns and very, very small hands (We'll have to wait until its evolution is finally revealed to confirm this). At this moment, it's most likely based on a Tyrannosaurus -- [[User:Jomarori|Jomarori]] ([[User talk:Jomarori|talk]]) 17:59, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
::Indeed, I meant ''Tyrannosaurus'' or any other member of the Tyrannosauridae. I do know quite a bit about dinosaurs. It does seem to share traits of ''Carnotaurus'' as you mentioned. --[[User:Poke'fan07|Poke'fan07]]

== Physiology ==

"Chigorasu are dinosaurian Pokemon, closely resembling theropods like {{Wp|Tyrannosaurus}}. Their bodies are a stony grayish-brown color, with lighter gray on their bellies and lower jaw. The back comes to a peaked hump, and the tail is short and pointed. They have tiny forelimbs with only two, white, clawed digits, but their hind legs are robust and end in three white claws and a rear claw which is the same color as the rest of the body. The front part of each leg also features two, armor-like plates which are rectangular in shape. Spiky, white "fluff", similar to the primitive feathering on many dinosaurs, extends from the back of the neck. Their heads are proportionally large, with a ridged snout and powerful jaws. They have two fangs in the lower jaw, and the upper jaw features tooth-like projections on either side and a slightly-decurved hook at the end. Their large white eyes are semicircular with a black border along the lower curve. Orange, triangular horns extend from above each eye and point backwards. A similar projection juts out of the tail."
[[User:Togeknight|~Destruction on Wings~]] ([[User talk:Togeknight|talk]]) 22:28, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

== Name Origin ==

Possibly from chigo (稚児), meaning baby, child, and tyrannosaurus (ティラノサウルス tiranosaurusu).[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] ([[User talk:KurowaSan|talk]]) 03:12, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

I have no idea what che- means (maybe from {{wp|Chevrolet}} lol), but I'm pretty sure that -vrumm/-vroum comes from the sound that a car makes when the engine is revving.

'''Route 3''' (Japanese: '''３ばんどうろ''' ''Route 3'') is a route in northwest [[Kanto]], connecting [[Pewter City]] to {{rt|4|Kanto}} and [[Mt. Moon]].

==Route description==
For its western half, Route 3 is a split-level [[route]]. Heading east from [[Pewter City]], the {{player}} encounters a small clearing with some natural obstacles that create a fork in the road, forcing travel north or south, of which the south path curves east and leads to a group of {{m|Rock Smash|rocky}} pits ([[Generation IV]] only) and a dead end. In order to progress, the player must turn north and then east along the northern half (which, in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, is packed with {{pkmn|Trainer}}s). At any point, the player can jump the ledges located here to access a middle section of the route between the two ledges. Most of this middle area contains [[item]]s, as well as another Trainer waiting for battle. By hopping a ledge again, the player is able to travel west toward the pits and then north back to the clearing at the start of the route.

East of the second section of the ledges, the route curves south and then east near a large patch of [[tall grass]] containing [[wild Pokémon]], which takes up most of the area. This patch, which contains another Trainer, follows the route until it turns north ahead of a hill. (In [[Generation IV]], the player can go through the grass to reach a ledge running along the southern edge of the route.) From this point, the route makes a backward "S" curve, turning east past the hilly terrain, south past another ledge that leads the route to a large clearing, east again, and finally north, passing a second patch of grass near the end, which has a fence around it as well as a [[signpost]] for directions. (In Generation IV, however, the eastern half of the route only goes south-east and does not bring the player north until the second patch of grass.)

The only obstacles along the remainder of the route are a few ledges on either side, which are easily bypassed as the player proceeds north towards the mysterious [[Mt. Moon]] cave and {{rt|4|Kanto}} beyond. Beside the entrance to the cave is a [[Pokémon Center]], one of only two in [[Kanto]] that is not located in a populated area (the other one is on {{rt|10|Kanto}} at the north entrance to [[Rock Tunnel]]). In Generation III, {{m|Fly}} is able to return the player to this location instantly, but not in any other [[Generation]]s. In the Pokémon Center, a [[Magikarp salesman|man]] attempts to scam Trainers by selling them the laughably common {{p|Magikarp}} for relatively high prices.

==Differences among generations==
===Generations I and III===
The only changes along Route 3 between these two [[Generation]]s are cosmetic, such as the reconstruction of the surrounding landscape. The barriers on either side of the route are removed in the Generation III remakes, while the large patch of tall grass in the center of the route becomes considerably smaller. Also the set of trees have been removed in Generation I and have been replaced by a rocky mountain setting. Other than this, most of the route remains the same.

===Generation II===
Many changes were made to Route 3 in [[Generation II]]. First, the route was shortened significantly. Also, the number of {{pkmn|Trainer}}s along the path was reduced to four. Similarly, the size of the grass patches were reduced by nearly 50%.

Traveling east from [[Pewter City]], the route passes two barriers on either side of the road, and cuts to a clearing that creates a fork in the road, and allows travel north or south, with south curving around eastern and then leading to a dead end. In order to progress, Trainers must turn north after the route opens up and progress east along the northern half. For its western half, Route 3 is a split-level route, so at any point, Trainers can jump the ledges located south of this path, to access a middle section of the route between two ledges, and then again, so Trainer are able to travel west which curves north back to the clearing at the start of the route.

East of the second pair of ledges, the route curves south before returning east near a small patch of [[tall grass]]. The size of the tall grass has been reduced by about half. This patch follows the route until the path turns north ahead of a hill. From this point, the route makes a backward "S" curve, turning east past the hilly terrain, south past another ledge taking the route to a large clearing, east again which travels across the clearing, and, finally, to the north, passing the second patch of grass which has also been reduced in size, which has a fence as well as a [[signpost]], which gives out directions.

Part of Route 4 has been combined with Route 3 so now only one route connects Pewter with [[Mt. Moon]], however, the Pokémon Center is no longer there. There are no obstacles along the remainder of the route as it proceeds north towards [[Mt. Moon]].

===Generation IV===
[[File:Kanto Route 3 meteorites HGSS.png|thumb|200px|The meteorites located at the southwest end of Route 3]]
In [[Generation IV]], the route is different from other generations, with some area changes, as well as major aesthetic features enhanced, including depth and sprite changes. The trees removed in Generation III return, and the east area of the route changes too. Hills, rocks, and {{m|Rock Smash|smashable rocks}} are added near [[Mt. Moon]], now part of this route like in Generation II. An additional area at the southwest end of the route allows players to change their {{p|Deoxys}}'s current form by interacting with different meteorites. Also, a new hill is placed south of the [[tall grass]].

For its western half, Route 3 is a split-level route. Heading east, Trainers must turn north after the route opens up and progress east along the northern half. The southern half of the route is only accessible by hopping down ledges that will lead Trainers into the paths of more rival Trainers. East of the second pair of ledges, the route curves south before returning east near a large patch of grass containing wild Pokémon. This patch follows the route until the path turns north ahead of a hill. From this point, the route makes a backward "S" curve, turning east, south, east and, finally, to the north, passing the second patch of grass on the route. There are no obstacles along the remainder of the route as it proceeds north towards Mt. Moon. Just before the entrance to the cave, there is a Pokémon Center.

Three unique items have also been scattered around the place, including a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Big Root}}, located near a {{tc|Firebreather}}; a {{DL|Valuable item|Star Piece}}, located near the meteors; and a {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}}, hidden near the [[Pokémon Center]]. The number of Trainers along the path has been increased to eleven. The Pokémon Center at the entrance of [[Mt. Moon]] returns but the area around it was reduced significantly in size.

==In the anime==
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} hiked along Route 3 in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''. They were on their way to [[Mt. Moon]], when they encountered a man being attacked by a flock of {{p|Zubat}}. Ash ordered {{AP|Pikachu}} to fire a {{m|ThunderShock}}. The Zubat flew away, and the man, who was wearing a lab coat, squeezed Ash and thanked him profusely. He introduced himself as [[Seymour]] the scientist.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Red}} passed through Route 3 in ''[[PS006|Gyarados Splashes In!]]'' in the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, when a [[Gyara]]dos belonging to [[Misty]] was out of control. With Misty's help, Red was able to capture Gyarados (even though that should not have been possible, since Misty already owned it). There was also a [[Pokémon Center]] where Red contacted {{adv|Professor Oak}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Route 3 shorts Gen I.png|thumb|200px|right|The original quote in Generation I]]
* The music that plays in Route 3 is one of the most common location-specific themes in the {{pkmn|games}}, playing in [[Route]]s 3, {{rtn|4|Kanto}}, {{rtn|5|Kanto}}, {{rtn|6|Kanto}}, {{rtn|7|Kanto}}, {{rtn|8|Kanto}}, {{rtn|9|Kanto}}, {{rtn|10|Kanto}}, {{rtn|16|Kanto}}, {{rtn|17|Kanto}}, {{rtn|18|Kanto}}, {{rtn|19|Kanto}}, {{rtn|20|Kanto}}, {{rtn|21|Kanto}}, and {{rtn|22|Kanto}}. It also plays in {{rt|24|Kanto}} and {{rtn|25|Kanto}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and on {{rt|2|Kanto}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.
* Although there are seven breakable rocks around the Pokémon Center in HeartGold and SoulSilver, there are no wild Pokémon to be found under them. As a result, Route 3 is the best place for collecting items found via {{m|Rock Smash}}.
* When {{tc|Bug Catcher}} Colton first approaches the {{player}}, he says, "I saw you in [[Viridian Forest]]," though there is no Bug Catcher named Colton in Viridian Forest. He also says, "You beat me again!" after defeat. This is also true in the Japanese versions, as there is no Bug Catcher named Hisashi in Viridian Forest. This error is a carryover from [[Generation I]], where no Bug Catcher, nor any other [[Trainer class]] aside from [[Elite Four]] members and [[Gym Leader]]s, had specific names (making it presumable that one could encounter the same Trainer twice in different areas).
* Route 3 is the scene of a famous quote among Pokémon fans, where {{tc|Youngster}} Ben exclaims, "Hi! I like shorts! They're comfy and easy to wear!" Further along in the route, another Youngster exclaims "Hey! You're not wearing shorts!"
** In [[Humilau City]], a {{tc|Lady}} will make a reference to Ben, saying, "This dress is comfy and easy to wear..."

'''Route 3''' (Japanese: '''３ばんどうろ''' ''Route 3'') is a route in northwest [[Kanto]], connecting [[Pewter City]] to {{rt|4|Kanto}} and [[Mt. Moon]].

==Route description==
For its western half, Route 3 is a split-level [[route]]. Heading east from [[Pewter City]], the {{player}} encounters a small clearing with some natural obstacles that create a fork in the road, forcing travel north or south, of which the south path curves east and leads to a group of {{m|Rock Smash|rocky}} pits ([[Generation IV]] only) and a dead end. In order to progress, the player must turn north and then east along the northern half (which, in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, is packed with {{pkmn|Trainer}}s). At any point, the player can jump the ledges located here to access a middle section of the route between the two ledges. Most of this middle area contains [[item]]s, as well as another Trainer waiting for battle. By hopping a ledge again, the player is able to travel west toward the pits and then north back to the clearing at the start of the route.

East of the second section of the ledges, the route curves south and then east near a large patch of [[tall grass]] containing [[wild Pokémon]], which takes up most of the area. This patch, which contains another Trainer, follows the route until it turns north ahead of a hill. (In [[Generation IV]], the player can go through the grass to reach a ledge running along the southern edge of the route.) From this point, the route makes a backward "S" curve, turning east past the hilly terrain, south past another ledge that leads the route to a large clearing, east again, and finally north, passing a second patch of grass near the end, which has a fence around it as well as a [[signpost]] for directions. (In Generation IV, however, the eastern half of the route only goes south-east and does not bring the player north until the second patch of grass.)

The only obstacles along the remainder of the route are a few ledges on either side, which are easily bypassed as the player proceeds north towards the mysterious [[Mt. Moon]] cave and {{rt|4|Kanto}} beyond. Beside the entrance to the cave is a [[Pokémon Center]], one of only two in [[Kanto]] that is not located in a populated area (the other one is on {{rt|10|Kanto}} at the north entrance to [[Rock Tunnel]]). In Generation III, {{m|Fly}} is able to return the player to this location instantly, but not in any other [[Generation]]s. In the Pokémon Center, a [[Magikarp salesman|man]] attempts to scam Trainers by selling them the laughably common {{p|Magikarp}} for relatively high prices.

==Differences among generations==
===Generations I and III===
The only changes along Route 3 between these two [[Generation]]s are cosmetic, such as the reconstruction of the surrounding landscape. The barriers on either side of the route are removed in the Generation III remakes, while the large patch of tall grass in the center of the route becomes considerably smaller. Also the set of trees have been removed in Generation I and have been replaced by a rocky mountain setting. Other than this, most of the route remains the same.

===Generation II===
Many changes were made to Route 3 in [[Generation II]]. First, the route was shortened significantly. Also, the number of {{pkmn|Trainer}}s along the path was reduced to four. Similarly, the size of the grass patches were reduced by nearly 50%.

Traveling east from [[Pewter City]], the route passes two barriers on either side of the road, and cuts to a clearing that creates a fork in the road, and allows travel north or south, with south curving around eastern and then leading to a dead end. In order to progress, Trainers must turn north after the route opens up and progress east along the northern half. For its western half, Route 3 is a split-level route, so at any point, Trainers can jump the ledges located south of this path, to access a middle section of the route between two ledges, and then again, so Trainer are able to travel west which curves north back to the clearing at the start of the route.

East of the second pair of ledges, the route curves south before returning east near a small patch of [[tall grass]]. The size of the tall grass has been reduced by about half. This patch follows the route until the path turns north ahead of a hill. From this point, the route makes a backward "S" curve, turning east past the hilly terrain, south past another ledge taking the route to a large clearing, east again which travels across the clearing, and, finally, to the north, passing the second patch of grass which has also been reduced in size, which has a fence as well as a [[signpost]], which gives out directions.

Part of Route 4 has been combined with Route 3 so now only one route connects Pewter with [[Mt. Moon]], however, the Pokémon Center is no longer there. There are no obstacles along the remainder of the route as it proceeds north towards [[Mt. Moon]].

===Generation IV===
[[File:Kanto Route 3 meteorites HGSS.png|thumb|200px|The meteorites located at the southwest end of Route 3]]
In [[Generation IV]], the route is different from other generations, with some area changes, as well as major aesthetic features enhanced, including depth and sprite changes. The trees removed in Generation III return, and the east area of the route changes too. Hills, rocks, and {{m|Rock Smash|smashable rocks}} are added near [[Mt. Moon]], now part of this route like in Generation II. An additional area at the southwest end of the route allows players to change their {{p|Deoxys}}'s current form by interacting with different meteorites. Also, a new hill is placed south of the [[tall grass]].

For its western half, Route 3 is a split-level route. Heading east, Trainers must turn north after the route opens up and progress east along the northern half. The southern half of the route is only accessible by hopping down ledges that will lead Trainers into the paths of more rival Trainers. East of the second pair of ledges, the route curves south before returning east near a large patch of grass containing wild Pokémon. This patch follows the route until the path turns north ahead of a hill. From this point, the route makes a backward "S" curve, turning east, south, east and, finally, to the north, passing the second patch of grass on the route. There are no obstacles along the remainder of the route as it proceeds north towards Mt. Moon. Just before the entrance to the cave, there is a Pokémon Center.

Three unique items have also been scattered around the place, including a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Big Root}}, located near a {{tc|Firebreather}}; a {{DL|Valuable item|Star Piece}}, located near the meteors; and a {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}}, hidden near the [[Pokémon Center]]. The number of Trainers along the path has been increased to eleven. The Pokémon Center at the entrance of [[Mt. Moon]] returns but the area around it was reduced significantly in size.

==In the anime==
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} hiked along Route 3 in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''. They were on their way to [[Mt. Moon]], when they encountered a man being attacked by a flock of {{p|Zubat}}. Ash ordered {{AP|Pikachu}} to fire a {{m|ThunderShock}}. The Zubat flew away, and the man, who was wearing a lab coat, squeezed Ash and thanked him profusely. He introduced himself as [[Seymour]] the scientist.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Red}} passed through Route 3 in ''[[PS006|Gyarados Splashes In!]]'' in the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, when a [[Gyara]]dos belonging to [[Misty]] was out of control. With Misty's help, Red was able to capture Gyarados (even though that should not have been possible, since Misty already owned it). There was also a [[Pokémon Center]] where Red contacted {{adv|Professor Oak}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Route 3 shorts Gen I.png|thumb|200px|right|The original quote in Generation I]]
* The music that plays in Route 3 is one of the most common location-specific themes in the {{pkmn|games}}, playing in [[Route]]s 3, {{rtn|4|Kanto}}, {{rtn|5|Kanto}}, {{rtn|6|Kanto}}, {{rtn|7|Kanto}}, {{rtn|8|Kanto}}, {{rtn|9|Kanto}}, {{rtn|10|Kanto}}, {{rtn|16|Kanto}}, {{rtn|17|Kanto}}, {{rtn|18|Kanto}}, {{rtn|19|Kanto}}, {{rtn|20|Kanto}}, {{rtn|21|Kanto}}, and {{rtn|22|Kanto}}. It also plays in {{rt|24|Kanto}} and {{rtn|25|Kanto}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and on {{rt|2|Kanto}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.
* Although there are seven breakable rocks around the Pokémon Center in HeartGold and SoulSilver, there are no wild Pokémon to be found under them. As a result, Route 3 is the best place for collecting items found via {{m|Rock Smash}}.
* When {{tc|Bug Catcher}} Colton first approaches the {{player}}, he says, "I saw you in [[Viridian Forest]]," though there is no Bug Catcher named Colton in Viridian Forest. He also says, "You beat me again!" after defeat. This is also true in the Japanese versions, as there is no Bug Catcher named Hisashi in Viridian Forest. This error is a carryover from [[Generation I]], where no Bug Catcher, nor any other [[Trainer class]] aside from [[Elite Four]] members and [[Gym Leader]]s, had specific names (making it presumable that one could encounter the same Trainer twice in different areas).
* Route 3 is the scene of a famous quote among Pokémon fans, where {{tc|Youngster}} Ben exclaims, "Hi! I like shorts! They're comfy and easy to wear!" Further along in the route, another Youngster exclaims "Hey! You're not wearing shorts!"
** In [[Humilau City]], a {{tc|Lady}} will make a reference to Ben, saying, "This dress is comfy and easy to wear..."

While not confirmed, its name almost definitely means it was a {{type2|Fire}}. In the alpha it was a {{type2|Fire}}, and knew the moves Ember, Scratch, and Leer; it was the Fire-type starter. Given its name refers to it as a bear, some fans believe it could have been an early version of the {{p|Teddiursa}} evolution family, but that seems doubtful.}}

Given its name refers to it as a bear, some fans believe it could have been an early version of the {{p|Teddiursa}} evolution family, but that seems doubtful.}}

Since Dolly, the cloned sheep, was born several months after the release of Pokémon Red and Green in Japan, it's more likely that this Pokémon would have been intended for [[Generation II]].}}

Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta

2012-02-25T06:11:53Z

KurowaSan: /* Pokémon */ Fixed link.

Several things were originally going to be added to {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} during their development. Some were dropped or changed, and some of the dropped concepts of the prototypes can still be found in the games' programming.

==Gameplay==
===Battles===
It seems that wild [[double battles]] were planned to occur in these games in addition to the double battles against [[Trainers]]. This is evidenced by a piece of text found in the games' code: "''Wild \v[&H05] and \v[&H03] appeared!''", with '''\v[&H05]''' and '''\v[&H03]''' being placeholder values used by the game to display the names of the Pokémon that the {{player}} would encounter. This mechanic would later be introduced in [[Generation IV]].

===Prototype music===
====Generation II music====
Some remastered [[Generation II]] music exists, inaccessible in the coding of Ruby and Sapphire. Known pieces include:
* Background music used on [[Route]]s {{rtn|38|Johto}} and {{rtn|39|Johto}}.
* Background music used in the [[Pokémon Communication Center]].
* Background music used in [[Saffron City]] during Generation II.
* Background music used in battles with the [[legendary beasts]] in {{game|Crystal}}.
* [[Team Rocket]]'s theme.

All of these themes came from {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. These may either be early pieces of music used as stand-ins, or may have hinted at [[Game Freak]] having an intent to develop remakes of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} (which were later [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|done in Generation IV]]) instead of or in addition to [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|one]] of {{2v2|Red|Green}}, or even including [[Johto]] and/or [[Kanto]], à la Gold, Silver, and Crystal. It is possible that this music was only for tests, as they appear in the game programming before the actual music played during the game.

====Other music====
The [[Pokémon Contest|Contest]] theme, which plays during the appeals round, appears both as its whole variation in addition to four sub-tracks which combine to play the full tune. The sub-tracks are next to the normal music in the games' coding, indicating that they were initially intended to be used, though with what purpose is unknown.

Another song in the programming is a variation of the [[Littleroot Town]] theme, which lacks the introduction and instead goes straight to the loop point.

===Abilities===
An ability known as {{a|Cacophony}} was found within the games' programming; however, no Pokémon have it (unless they are hacked to have it). It is identical to {{a|Soundproof}}, another sound-based ability, and it allows the Pokémon to avoid all sound-based moves. Since it is identical to Soundproof (thus including it in the final version would have been redundant), some Pokémon with Soundproof may have originally been intended to have Cacophony instead, such as {{p|Whismur}}'s evolutions {{p|Loudred}} and {{p|Exploud}}, well-known for their loudness.

A Pokémon that has been hacked to have Cacophony will regain the normal ability it should have (according to its [[personality value]]) if it is migrated to [[Generation IV]]. However, it has not been fully confirmed that the ability is not present within the coding of the Generation IV games.

===Pokémon===
In an interview in Nintendo Power, it was revealed that {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}} were originally designed for [[Generation III]] instead of [[Generation IV]]. These are not the forms in the final versions, however; [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl beta|Diamond and Pearl's programming code]] reveals a back sprite for both Pokémon, but no front sprite. Shellos's sprite is pink, like its [[form differences|West Sea variation]], and seems to combine the western variation's head with the [[form differences|eastern variation]]'s body, while Gastrodon's sprite is brown and looks like its western variation, but with more rock-like protrusions on its body.

There were also numerous changes to Pokémon included in the games. An early version of {{p|Torchic}} is nearly identical to the current designs, aside from the large floppy ears. There is another design though that shows it inside an eggshell with lots of fluff on its neck. Another curious picture depicts a creature with traits of both {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Blaziken}}, along with an unused {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Concept art of {{p|Treecko}} also shows numerous designs for the Pokémon before the final design was decided, mainly with less elongated head shapes and less round nose than the final design. {{p|Groudon}} also had a picture of its early design shown and it had a different shape to its eyes, one more set of spikes on the torso, one less spike on the tail, one of the spikes on the neck was moved to the head on the final design, overall shapes are much less sharp, head details became much more elongated, and the [[weather trio]] signature body markings are still not present.

==Graphics==
Some unused graphical elements have been found within the games' coding. Official screenshots also reveal a different representation of certain parts of the graphics. Examples of this include:
* '''[[Team Aqua]] sprite''' - An alternate, unused sprite of a member of Team Aqua is found in the game; this sprite is identical to that of male {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt|Aqua Grunt}}s with the exception of a mirrored body, modified coloration, the addition of a mustache, and a bandanna around the Grunt's left arm.
* '''[[Pokédex]] sprite''' - What appears to be a prototype model of the sprite that is used for a Pokémon the [[Player character|player]] has not seen is two blocky, big and white question marks instead for the round and black one with a white circle and a white question mark.
* '''Tilesets''' - There is data for an unused tileset, which could have been intended for the [[Mossdeep City]] [[Mossdeep Gym|Gym]] or the [[Trick House]].
* '''[[Poké Mart]]''' - In some early screenshots, Poké Mart roofs are colored red instead of blue.
* '''HP bar''' - There is an HP bar that was different from the final version.
* '''Beta Pokémon sprites''' - There are beta sprites of several Pokémon drawn in a style different from the released game, including {{p|Shroomish}}, {{p|Duskull}}, {{p|Wailmer}}, {{p|Wynaut}}, and {{p|Sharpedo}}.

A demo was available at the [[Pokémon Festa]] 2002 in Japan. There were beta versions of {{rt|104|Hoenn}} and the [[Pretty Petal Flower Shop]], which is 'not yet open' according to the lady inside. There is also an unfinished version of the party screen, alongside a battle system more thoroughly developed in comparison to what was seen in older screenshots. When the battle starts, it is not possible to see how many Pokémon the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s have. Some moves, like {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Faint Attack}}, are depicted with different animations than those seen in the final version. It is also shown that {{p|Sharpedo}} has no [[ability]] in the demo; it could mean that not all Pokémon could have abilities. Given {{p|Sharpedo}}'s low level in the demo, it could also mean that {{p|Carvanha}} didn't exist at the time.

===Remnants of the demo===
The alternative versions of {{rt|104|Hoenn}} and the [[Pretty Petal Flower Shop]] still exist within the coding of the final release; though the associated tileset data for the beta Route 104 has since been removed.

The music used in the demo for {{pkmn|Trainer}} battles was used for [[wild Pokémon]] battles in the final version.

Unused dialogue data, associated with the [[Pokémon Festa]] 2002 demo exists within the final game. The text remains untouched in the Japanese versions but has been translated in localized versions of the game.

{{youtubevid|sXd_FG0MLSc|xdanielDZD|Ruby}}

==Older text==
===Pokémon AGB===
Certain text refers to Pokémon AGB (short for Pokémon Advanced Game Boy), the once tentative title for Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. They are presumably from the early alpha stages of development.

*"''Message 1: This is sample message 1. Welcome to the world of POKéMON AGB! We hope you enjoy this!''"
*"''Message 2: This is sample message 2. Welcome to the world of POKéMON AGB! We hope you enjoy this!''"
*"''Message 3: This is sample message 3. Welcome to the world of POKéMON AGB! We hope you enjoy this!''"

===Day-Care Mail===
Additional unused text makes reference to a Pokémon raised in the [[Pokémon Day Care|Day-Care]] receiving a piece of [[Mail]], presumably if raised with a Pokémon from another {{pkmn|Trainer}}. It is not known why this mentioned feature did not make it into the final game. This piece of text reads:

"''By the way, about your (PKMN) it seemed to be friendly with (TRAINER?)'s (PKMN2). I may even have seen it receiving a piece of MAIL.''"

===Debug menu===
Leftover text remains from a prototype version of Pokémon Ruby<ref>[http://forums.hidden-palace.org/viewtopic.php?t=2895 Pokémon Ruby Debug]</ref>. Some of the text is not present within the final game, though there are still references to some of the options such as "Init comm. data", "Set highest score", "Reset highest score" and "Set all art museum items".

===Prototype Ruby===
A German-language prototype version of Pokémon Ruby was apparently sold by a [[Nintendo]] representative to an anonymous user "drx". The prototype has many debugging features, which can be accessed by scrolling through a section presumably relevant to who developed that aspect of the game. For example, choosing "WATANABE" attempts to save the game (though unsuccessfully) and selecting "KAGAYA" allows the player to view his or her {{ga|Trainer Card}}, the opponent's Trainer Card or activate the [[Game Corner|slot machine]] interface.
{{youtubevid|mzCwu1JiUbQ|Gligar13Vids|Ruby}}

==Limitations==
[[Junichi Masuda]] stated that while developing {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, [[Game Freak]] considered changing the number of Pokémon the player can have and the number of moves a Pokémon can learn; however, the idea was later scrapped. It is currently unknown what sort of potential changes were to be made, and as of [[Generation V]], no changes like this have been made to the series.

Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta

2012-02-25T06:10:25Z

KurowaSan: /* Pokémon */ Added new Torchic beta design and Groudon's early design.

Several things were originally going to be added to {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} during their development. Some were dropped or changed, and some of the dropped concepts of the prototypes can still be found in the games' programming.

==Gameplay==
===Battles===
It seems that wild [[double battles]] were planned to occur in these games in addition to the double battles against [[Trainers]]. This is evidenced by a piece of text found in the games' code: "''Wild \v[&H05] and \v[&H03] appeared!''", with '''\v[&H05]''' and '''\v[&H03]''' being placeholder values used by the game to display the names of the Pokémon that the {{player}} would encounter. This mechanic would later be introduced in [[Generation IV]].

===Prototype music===
====Generation II music====
Some remastered [[Generation II]] music exists, inaccessible in the coding of Ruby and Sapphire. Known pieces include:
* Background music used on [[Route]]s {{rtn|38|Johto}} and {{rtn|39|Johto}}.
* Background music used in the [[Pokémon Communication Center]].
* Background music used in [[Saffron City]] during Generation II.
* Background music used in battles with the [[legendary beasts]] in {{game|Crystal}}.
* [[Team Rocket]]'s theme.

All of these themes came from {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. These may either be early pieces of music used as stand-ins, or may have hinted at [[Game Freak]] having an intent to develop remakes of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} (which were later [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|done in Generation IV]]) instead of or in addition to [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|one]] of {{2v2|Red|Green}}, or even including [[Johto]] and/or [[Kanto]], à la Gold, Silver, and Crystal. It is possible that this music was only for tests, as they appear in the game programming before the actual music played during the game.

====Other music====
The [[Pokémon Contest|Contest]] theme, which plays during the appeals round, appears both as its whole variation in addition to four sub-tracks which combine to play the full tune. The sub-tracks are next to the normal music in the games' coding, indicating that they were initially intended to be used, though with what purpose is unknown.

Another song in the programming is a variation of the [[Littleroot Town]] theme, which lacks the introduction and instead goes straight to the loop point.

===Abilities===
An ability known as {{a|Cacophony}} was found within the games' programming; however, no Pokémon have it (unless they are hacked to have it). It is identical to {{a|Soundproof}}, another sound-based ability, and it allows the Pokémon to avoid all sound-based moves. Since it is identical to Soundproof (thus including it in the final version would have been redundant), some Pokémon with Soundproof may have originally been intended to have Cacophony instead, such as {{p|Whismur}}'s evolutions {{p|Loudred}} and {{p|Exploud}}, well-known for their loudness.

A Pokémon that has been hacked to have Cacophony will regain the normal ability it should have (according to its [[personality value]]) if it is migrated to [[Generation IV]]. However, it has not been fully confirmed that the ability is not present within the coding of the Generation IV games.

===Pokémon===
In an interview in Nintendo Power, it was revealed that {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}} were originally designed for [[Generation III]] instead of [[Generation IV]]. These are not the forms in the final versions, however; [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl beta|Diamond and Pearl's programming code]] reveals a back sprite for both Pokémon, but no front sprite. Shellos's sprite is pink, like its [[form differences|West Sea variation]], and seems to combine the western variation's head with the [[form differences|eastern variation]]'s body, while Gastrodon's sprite is brown and looks like its western variation, but with more rock-like protrusions on its body.

There were also numerous changes to Pokémon included in the games. An early version of {{p|Torchic}} is nearly identical to the current designs, aside from the large floppy ears. There is another design though that shows it inside an eggshell with lots of fluff on its neck. Another curious picture depicts a creature with traits of both {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Blaziken}}, along with an unused {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Concept art of {{p|Treecko}} also shows numerous designs for the Pokémon before the final design was decided, mainly with less elongated head shapes and less round nose than the final design. Groudon also had a picture of its early design shown and it had a different shape to its eyes, one more set of spikes on the torso, one less spike on the tail, one of the spikes on the neck was moved to the head on the final design, overall shapes are much less sharp, head details became much more elongated, and the [[weather trio]] signature body markings are still not present.

* '''[[Poké Mart]]''' - In some early screenshots, Poké Mart roofs are colored red instead of blue.

* '''Beta Pokémon sprites''' - There are beta sprites of several Pokémon drawn in a style different from the released game, including {{p|Shroomish}}, {{p|Duskull}}, {{p|Wailmer}}, {{p|Wynaut}}, and {{p|Sharpedo}}.

2012-02-25T01:19:34Z

KurowaSan: /* Game-on Exhibition */

== Name ==

This page needs to be renamed, to something like "Unused Artwork" or "Unused Concept Art", due to the fact that somethings are not Pokémon. Also, am I the only one who sees a massive relation between {{p|Raichu}} and Honouguma, {{p|Cyndaquil}}? Nah it looks to me to be more of a possible Raichu evolution. - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]] 19:32, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

> Why would Raichu evolve into a Pokemon without "chu" in it's name, who according to it's own name is a Fire-type? {{unsigned|Zeta}}

They were trying something different maybe? It just seems to bear an amazing resemblance. - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]]

Did you guys think it was a pre-version of Teddiursa, but maybe scrapped when it was too related to Raichu. It is a bear, and a bear pokemon was released in Johto.
[[User:Firemaker|Firemaker]]

== Article ==

So, Bulbapedia has an article about Unreleased Pokémon, huh? Now all we need is an article on ''Fake'' Pokémon. - [[User:Pokencyclopedia|Pokencyclopedia]]

== Validity issues ==

I've always found those sketches rather dubious now that I think about it. Where did they originally come from? Is there any proof at all that they are original concept art? - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]] 22:40, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

: Excellent question. However, I do know I remember seeing them way back then on PokéFor (note the fine print on the images) around the release of G/S. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 02:19, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

:The ones that were obviously scanned look like Sugimori's style, especially the trainers. So, at the very least, "Unnamed Mammal" and "Unnamed Turtle" are real. One can even see the turtle with Tyranitar in the Male Trainer art. I don't know what those other rough sketches are, though. They aren't Sugimori. --[[User:Argy|Argy]] 05:04, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

== Commentary issues ==

'''Unnamed mammal'''

''The Unnamed mammal has been said to resemble Hitmontop or Meowth''
:Really? I definately see some {{p|Wigglytuff}} in there! [[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] 17:20, 26 November 2005 (CST)
::This is gonna sound weird, but something about the design reminds me of {{p|Snubbull}}. It's the blue collar on a pink creature thing, I think. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 14:58, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

'''Kurusu'''

''This creature resembles a seal, but doesn't seem to have much relation to any Pokémon as of yet''
: [[Image:Alpha kurusu.png]][[Image:086Seel.png|200px]]
: --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] 14:52, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

'''Unnamed turtle'''

''A turtle Pokémon that was never released. It's possible it was later heavily reworked into Torkoal.''
:Am I the only one who sees Swampert's head in there? --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] 14:52, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

== Pictures ==

What website are those pictures from?--[[User:Ambipom|Ambipom]]--

== Other names and additional info ==

Back when Gold and Silver were about to come out, i remember there was an article in Gamepro magazine about the Japanese Gold and Silver that had a LOOONG list of beta Japanese names for the new pokemon, and the same article also had a few temporary English names. The ones I remember: Artibull instead of Smeargle and Xoqo instead of Xatu. Only problem is, that article is long gone. Can anyone help out?

:Seems as if some, like Flaaffy and Skiploom, are flipped. --'''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 22:52, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

::Wow, I actually remember those lists from back when G/S wasn't out in English yet. Every site had their own list of names that were confirmed, then had potential names that had been registered as copyrights or whatever listed somewhere and had people try to figure out which name went to which Pokémon.

::So, of course, the reason a few of them are mixed around is because the list was made when we could see what names had been registered (domain names of each Pokémon's name usually get registered by Nintendo ahead of time, or something like that); nobody knew what a Skiploom actually was, so Flaaffy ended up with the name Skiploom in most fans' lists (I guess nobody noticed the hop-skip-jump thing.)

::There's even a few of the common misspellings of the Japanese names that showed up in a lot of magazines and stuff before G/S's English release. "Hane"/"Popo" instead of Hanekko/Popokko, for example. With those in the list, I'm actually surprised the list doesn't have "Yanyan" listed as Umbreon/Burakki's Japanese name--that was a disturbingly common slip-up that magazines used to make back then.

::I do remember some of those names, but as far as I know "Natee" and "Natotem" never actually came from any sort of official source (either stated in Nintendo Power or registered online somewhere)--I actually remember talking about how "Xatu" and "Xoqo" (the guesses for Natu and Xatu's names at the time) were good names once, and someone randomly butted in and said that they should be named "something like Naytee or Natotem" instead. So yeah, those two are definitely fan-made names, probably made by people who wanted Cheesy Cram-Two-Words-Together Names and didn't like the much-more-interesting ones like Xatu. I also don't remember "Octorock" as a name for Tsubotsubo--and it's extremely unlikely that Nintendo was ever considering it, since it's already the name of a well-known Zelda monster.

All of the Kanto names mentioned on these and other websites are genuine beta names. The poster included with my first edition 2BA Master CD had about 15 out 150 pokemon with the bizarre beta names like "dragoon" and "Guardia". These names are on the Pokemon's individual pages but they should be collected together. Same with the gold and silver names, at least a paragraph explaining the confusion that occurred among the fans. Sorry if this entry is too long and rambly :) [[User:Jurgen200|Jurgen200]]

I remember something like that in a magazine too, with beta images of the pokemon w/beta names. I lost it though. I think it was in Beckett.

== Unown ==

Those "unreleased" Unown don't have to be unreleased.

*They don't count as Beta Pokémon because they were revealed after the release of Gold/Silver.
*I doubt they were ever meant to exist in games. They might be just anime-made.
*The pictures of Unowns seen in third movie are just pictures of several drawings of Unown. They may be a pure fiction. That's possible that these Unowns never existed, but someone drew them like that.

This page is about Pokémon which didn't make it to the final game. Those Unowns aren't one of them. They are anime-wank and no one says they were ever meant to exist. Those pictures in the movie were just DRAWINGS made by PEOPLE, not photos of real Unown. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 18:15, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

:::well the film was released not long before Kecleon, Wailmer and Azurill were revealed, a year I think, and their designs were exactly the same as they look now, so they had possibly finalized a good number Ruby/Sapphire pokemon by then (I dont know when the pics of Treecko, Torchic and 'Latiken' were taken however, I am also unsure how long it takes them to make the films(they are usually crap so probably not long)), besides they could have just used pics of the 26 original unowns[[User:Vuvuzela2010|Vuvuzela2010]] 21:13, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

== Green? It's BLUE! and other conflicts involving the Character section ==

I was reading a scanlation of Pokémon Special when I saw one of the pics that's in
this article in it!(It's the black-and-white pic of Red, Green, and Blue with thier fully-evolved starters.) I was immediatly reminded of the article and went to it, sure that the page
said that the pic was beta art.

And I was wrong, but I saw something else!

The page said that the girl in the aforementioned pic was Green.

Either Green had a gender change or the article's wrong!

Here's who's who- with the boys equated with their Anime counterparts-

Red-"Ash"

Green-"Gary"

Blue-the girl

The article needs fixing, but since this also goes into parts I don't know about-
I'm still reading Red-Green-Blue- I can't fully proofread it.

Also, I think the book under the color pic showing Red, Green, and Blue with
thier unevolved starters is Pokemon Special- at least a copy of it.

== Unnamed Turtle And Shuckle? ==

Though the article states it is similar to Squirtle, could it possibly be an evolved form of Shuckle? They both have a shell, they both have similarly shaped heads and considering Shuckle was introduced in generation II, it could have been an expansion on the family. Think of the expansions on gen II families in gen IV. This could have been the same thing. I do agree, however, it does look like Squirtle though.

I think that We should add the ones mentioned above as they are ''presumably'' pokémon and I think we should add a section for pokemon appearing only in the manga that have no natural explanation such as Zapmolcuno and the manga dialga/palkia fusion statue at eterna city (there is a picture of it on the eterna city talk page).--[[User:Nobody777|Nobody777]] 17:58, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

If Bellossom is on here for a color change, shouldn't Jynx be as well? To be honest I feel like Bellossom being on here is a little sketchy since the dark blue coloring was obviously released. However, if Bellossom is valid, Jynx should be on here too, right? [[User:Ikarishipper900|Ikarishipper900]] 03:59, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

== Moving to Prototype Pokemon and characters... ==

I'd like to suggest that this article be moved to "Prototype Pokémon and characters". Not only does this article list things that have been unreleased, but it also lists Pokemon whose designs had simply been alerted, and are therefore still technically released. "Prototype" can easily refer to both kinds, so I'd like to suggest that the article be moved to that. [[User:Rai Marshall|Rai Marshall]] 19:49, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

::Sprite error? "Error" implies accident. This doesn't look like an accident. There's no artwork from that era which contradicts that "error", hence no proof that it's an error. And the fact that Bellossom's artwork wasn't changed means that it's to be treated as a final thing. And compared to the other prototypes we have, it's a really minor change. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 14:18, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

::::In response to the Bellossom point. The alterations to Bellossom are the same as those that Jynx undertook.

Seriously... Who? I thought the fish was Basculin but the name does not match, then we have that... Siloutte thing next to Deerling that does not match any of the forms of neither Deerling or Sawsbuck, Alomomola design is noticeable different (and shares traits with Luvdisc: Shape, "blush sticker" and mouth, I think it was once planned to be an evolution) and Pansage is fat.

I also noticed the battle sprites are similar to those of Generation IV, same half-body back-sprites.

== Even more designs ==

Recently, this year [http://bbs.tgbus.com/viewthread.php?action=printable&tid=1932117 users on TGBUS] revealed a few more designs, and annotated some of the existing ones in English e.g. "The inside of a hotel. You can see a device for healing your Pokémon inside". I've seen the former sprites (below) on 2chan, but was unsure of its legitimacy, since its marked December 1997. It would be most appreciated if someone could translate it. I have heard that Nyosuka and others were mentioned once on Gamefreak's official Japanese website, but I can't find the original page and I'm unsure if images of them were ever officially revealed. Sorry, if that's a lot to ask for though.

(Japanese: '''株式会社ゲームフリーク''' ''{{wp|Kabushiki gaisha}} Game Freak'') is a Japanese game development company founded on April 26, 1989 by [[Satoshi Tajiri]], [[Ken Sugimori]], and [[Junichi Masuda]], and the main company responsible for the [[Pokémon]] games, most especially the [[main series|main series versions]].

Originally independent, since the release of {{game|Red and Green|s}} in 1996, Game Freak has been a {{wp|second-party developer}} for [[Nintendo]], developing games exclusively for their hardware while remaining a separate company. The company currently employs a staff of 73 as of April, 2010<ref>http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/company/about.html</ref>, while Satoshi Tajiri serves as its current CEO. Its headquarters are on the 22nd floor of the {{wp|Carrot Tower}} in {{wp|Setagaya, Tokyo}}, {{wp|Japan}}.

==History==
===Early history===
[[File:GameFreakCover1.jpg|thumb|Covers for volumes 4, 5, 7 and 8 of Game Freak magazine.]]
Game Freak, at the time unincorporated, originated as a video game magazine in the early 1980's. Run chiefly by Tajiri, with art made by Sugimori, the magazines typically were released at a length of around 28 pages and at a price of ¥300 (roughly US$3). Initially, the magazine was handwritten, but Tajiri later outsourced this to a professional printing company.

In 1989, Tajiri published his first video game, Quinty, which was localized as {{wp|Mendel Palace}} for its North American release. In the same year, Game Freak was officially incorporated, and began work on several video games for the two largest players in the industry at the time, Nintendo and {{wp|Sega}}. Among these games were licensed titles such as {{smw|Yoshi (game)|Yoshi}} and {{smw|Mario & Wario}}, as well as original games such as {{wp|Pulseman}} and {{wp|Smart Ball}}.

===Pokémon===
Though the idea for what would become the Pokémon games had existed in Tajiri's mind for a while, actual development of the Pokémon idea began as [[Capsule Monsters]] in 1990. Tajiri pitched this idea to Nintendo, however, it was rejected, and issues copyrighting the name led Tajiri to change it, first shortening it to CapuMon, then changing it to Pocket Monsters. With further revision of the idea, Tajiri pitched it again to Nintendo, and with the confidence of [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] swaying the decision, development was finally greenlighted.

Though the franchise is currently the second-most successful game franchise in the world (placing shortly behind {{smw|Mario (series)|Mario}}), development of {{game|Red and Green|s}} was incredibly difficult for the team at Game Freak, with the six-year development period and low finances of the company causing many of the staff to leave for other employment. Tajiri himself worked long hours, many of them unpaid, in order to bring Pokémon out, finally releasing them on February 27, 1996. An international success overnight, Game Freak became recognized as one of the best game developers Nintendo had working for them, leading to their second-party status.

Since Red and Green, Game Freak has developed all main series versions; other games, including the battle arena games and [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] RPGs {{g|Colosseum}} and {{XD}}, have been developed by other Nintendo affiliates and subsidiaries. The [[Game Boy Camera]], more of an add-on to the Game Boy than a game itself, had its image editing software developed by Game Freak as well.

===Later non-Pokémon work===
Though Game Freak has mainly developed the Pokémon series since its 1996 debut, it is responsible for two games released since then that were not Pokémon-related. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDqSZub7Dag Click + Medic], a Japan-only medical simulation game for the {{wp|PlayStation}}, plays similarly to Pokémon, though instead of monsters, features a doctor using various vaccines and antibodies to fight against viruses and other maladies inside of a patient's body.

Another game, {{wp|Drill Dozer}}, was released for the [[Game Boy Advance]] in the interim between the release of {{game|Emerald}} and {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, featuring a young girl who operates a drilling machine in order to take down enemies in each of the worlds.

==Philosophy==
Game Freak's philosophy, as stated on their website, is "To give the people of the world enjoyment, fun and discovery by continuously creating games of superior quality. And to encourage bravery, hope, kindness, dreams and an adventurous spirit." This philosophy is easily seen in the Pokémon games, where the player must fight bravely against the various [[villainous teams]], journeying across their region with their Pokémon by their side.

==Key people==
* [[Satoshi Tajiri]] (田尻　智), founder, CEO, chairman of the board
* [[Ken Sugimori]] (杉森　建), board member, art director
* [[Jun'ichi Masuda]] (増田順一), board member, head of development
* Takenori Ōta (太田健程)
* [[Shigeki Morimoto]] (森本茂樹)
* [[Motofumi Fujiwara]] (藤原基史)

==In the games==
Game Freak employees appear in each of the main series games, with their headquarters on the third floor of the [[Celadon Condominiums]]. In the games in which [[Kanto]] is not visitable, they appear on vacation, with a group in [[Lilycove City]], staying in the [[Cove Lily Motel]], and a single member staying at the [[Hotel Grand Lake]] in [[Valor Lakefront]]. The main reason to visit them is to obtain a [[diploma]], awarded after the completion of the [[Pokédex]]. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the sound designer gives the [[GB Sounds]] after the player has obtained all 8 Kanto badges. Game Freak has its own building in [[Castelia City]] in {{game|Black and White|s}}, where a character representing [[Shigeki Morimoto]] can be battled after stopping [[Team Plasma]]. Game Freak is found on 22F, just like in their real-world office in {{wp|Carrot Tower}}.

'''Lance''' (Japanese: '''ワタル''' ''Wataru'') is a {{pkmn|Master}} {{type2|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, a member of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]] and the [[Pokémon Champion]] in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]].

==In the games==
In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, Lance is the fourth and final member of the [[Elite Four]]. He must be defeated before facing {{ga|Blue}}, the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. By the [[Generation II]] games, he has proceeded to become Pokémon League Champion, due to Red going to Mt. Silver to train and leaving him his charge as Champion.
He raises {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon, which are both hard to catch and raise. He prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan-following. Lance also seems to have a liking for capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the [[Celadon Department Store]].

Lance's grandfather is the elder of a famous clan of Dragon Masters. [[Clair]] is his cousin, and his hometown is [[Blackthorn City]].

In Generation II and their remakes, the player first encounters Lance at the [[Lake of Rage]] where he watches the player battle the [[red Gyarados]].
Lance also appeared in [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket in [[Johto]]. Lance rewards the player with the {{m|Whirlpool}} HM for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans.

===={{g|Stadium 2}}====
In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the Champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that he or she used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any [[Gym Leaders]] in the Kanto region at any time.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lance anime.png|right|200px|thumb|Lance in the anime]]
[[File:Lance TR Disguise.png|left|180px|thumb|Lance disguised as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}]]
Lance is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] famous in the [[Pokémon League]]. He is a member of an organization called the [[Pokémon G-Men]].

Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} there, saving the children from some formidable {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a {{shiny|Red}} {{p|Gyarados}} so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the [[Red Gyarados]] at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

Lance later appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', where he helped stop the rampage of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Lance Adventures.png|300px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon. Apparently also from [[Viridian Forest]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the Viridian Forest as {{adv|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds. Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

He first appears at Vermilion before the start of the Vermilion City Surfing Competition. The {{p|Dragonair}} that was to be offered as a prize to the winner was actually his. He then attacked Vermilion City and destroyed it, saying he was looking for something. When Yellow came after him he tried to capture [[Pika]] to please Agatha and Lorelei but once Pikachu learned Surf he too failed. Before the battle could continue, he mysteriously disappeared.

He next appeared on [[Cerise Island]] battling Blaine and Yellow. When Blaine released Mewtwo Blaine and Yellow were able to gain the upper hand against Lance's Aerodactyl and his two Dragonair. However, due to Blaine's link with Mewtwo they could only battle together for about three minutes and with time running out Blaine decided to target Lance's Poké Balls so he couldn't call out any other Pokémon and would have to battle with his weakened Pokémon that were already out. He succeeded in destroying the balls only for Blaine to be knocked unconscious due to Mewtwo's time out being run too long. Lance then chuckled to himself, revealing that he had called his Pokémon out of their balls before the battle even began.

[[File:Lance HGSS Adventures.png|left|thumb|210px|Lance during the ''HGSS'' chapter]]During Lance's battle with Yellow both of them were equally matched, Lance luring the battle out onto the top of Cerise Island, a volcano. Lance then once again gained the upper hand by having his Gyarados and Dragonair make green, red, and blue bubbles so they could not be detected in sunlight. Just when it seemed when Yellow was about to lose, Giovanni arrived and helped subdue Lance, using his {{p|Rhyhorn}} to create a sandstorm to make the bubbles visible. But this capturing only proved to be part of his plan, as he needed Giovanni's badge since it was the last badge he needed for the Badge Energy Amplifier to summon Lugia, so he lured Giovanni to the middle of the island so the Earth Badge would be automatically ripped from him and the Amplifier would automatically activate, summoning Lugia. Lance wanted Lugia to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away once they evolved and Yellow was able to channel their power into Pika's [[Moves not in the Pokémon games|Megavolt]]. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{adv|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar (which Silver promptly returned after awakening from his comatose state following the incident at the [[Lake of Rage]]). Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Masked Man]]. After this was fulfilled, Lance is briefly seen flying on his {{p|Aerodactyl}} watching the horizon during part of {{adv|Professor Oak|Oak's}} speech on the radio.

The recently started {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} heavily centers around Lance, or his disappearance, rather, which both {{adv|Gold}} and Silver are assigned to investigate on.

|epnum=PS060
|epname=Breath of the Dragonair Part 1
|desc=These {{p|Dragonair}} are Lance's mainly-used ones in his Dragonair army. One of them first appeared in a Surfing Contest as a prize. During the contest, Lance brainwashes the Dragonair and it starts launching Whirlpools at the surfers, bringing them down to the sea. Yellow finds out that Lance was responsible for this and battles his Dragonair and loses. Lance used two of his Dragonair to shield himself from the lava at Mt. Cerise by using bubbles. Yellow is once again in his clutches as they, along with Gyarados were responsible for the shaking of the mountain. The four Dragonair each serve a purpose: the first is used to cross the seas and skies, the second changes the direction of energy blasts, the third is used to control the weather (which is used in Lance's first fight against Yellow), and the fourth is used to combine its attack and fight the opponents. Lance usually uses only the first two when fighting opponents, the third against stronger ones, and all four only a very few times.

Dragonair's known moves are {{m|Agility}}, {{m|Wrap}}, {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Whirlpool}}, {{m|BubbleBeam}}, {{m|Slam}}, and {{m|Hyper Beam}}.}}

Tyranitar made its first official appearance when it was battling Gold and easily defeating Gold's entire team until it got subdued by [[Togebo]]'s {{m|Double-Edge}}. After battling Lugia at the Whirl Islands, Tyranitar was returned to Lance as Silver was not able to fully control it.

Tyranitar's only known move is {{m|Sandstorm}}, and it has a Quirky nature.}}

|epnum=PS089
|epname=The Might of... Metapod?!
|desc=Lance summoned {{p|Lugia}} to complete his plans of creating a utopia for Pokémon where humans that abuse Pokémon or destroy their habitats would be no more. However, this plan did not work as Lance was eventually beaten, and the Badge Amplifier energy Lugia had absorbed transferred to the soils of mainland Kanto, where it would spread life instead of bringing about death. As a result, it fled from Lance.

It was seen again in the [[Whirl Islands]] where it was on a rampage after being controlled by the [[Masked Man]], who caught it just as {{adv|Gold}}, {{adv|Silver}}, and {{adv|Crystal}} were about to. Using its {{m|Aeroblast}} with {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s {{m|Sacred Fire}} to demolish the league, the two remained nearly unstoppable until {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Raikou}} appeared alongside [[Misty|their]] [[Blaine|new]] [[Lt. Surge|trainers]] to fight the villain and free them. Eventually, after much turmoil, Lugia once again fled along with Ho-Oh.

Lugia's known moves are {{m|Whirlpool}}, {{m|Psychic}}, {{m|Fly}}, and {{m|Aeroblast}}.}}

==Trivia==
[[File:Lance Aerodactyl Rock Slide Gold.png|200px|thumb|Lance's Aerodactyl using Rock Slide in {{v2|Gold and Silver|s}}]]
* In the games, Lance is depicted as being from Blackthorn City, but the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga depicts Lance as being from Viridian Forest (albeit of Blackthorn descent).
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the Aerodactyl that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the Dragonite that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in Red and Blue. Furthermore, all his Dragonite from [[Generation II]], as well as in the double battle against Team Rocket and the first battle against him in the Pokémon League in [[Generation IV]], are underleveled.
**Though Aerodactyl could have Rock Slide through an event.
* Starting in {{game|Yellow}}, Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released.
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. All six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
** Additionally, the non-Dragon-type Pokémon used by Lance in the main series ({{p|Gyarados}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Charizard}}) are all part Flying-type, as well as partially or fully resembling dragons.
* Lance is the only member of the Johto Elite Four who, on the second time through, still does not have a team of only his type, with {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Gyarados}} not being Dragon-types.
** Additionally, both of them are part-{{type|Flying}} Pokémon.
[[File:Lance Team Magma.png|right|200px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Magma Grunt]]
* In the {{Pkmn|anime}}, Lance disguised himself as a member of a [[villainous team]] twice, as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} in ''[[EP235|Talkin' Bout an Evolution]]'', and later as a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}} in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''.
* Lance is the only Trainer the {{player}} can battle with in a double battle ([[Team Rocket HQ]]), against in a double battle ([[Dragon's Den]]), and against in a single battle (as {{pkmn|Champion}}) so far. Furthermore, the tag battle with him against [[Ariana]] and a Grunt can be seen parallel to the tag battle the player has with [[Steven Stone]] in {{game|Emerald}} against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]].
* Despite taking place three years later, Lance's Pokémon are at a lower level in Generation II than they were in Generation I. The same thing occurs with [[Bruno]].
* Lance appears as an opponent in [[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]. He uses a {{p|Dragonite}} in battle.
* From Generations {{gen|I}} to {{gen|III}}, all of his Pokémon know {{m|Hyper Beam}}. This was no longer the case in [[Generation IV]], possibly because Hyper Beam was changed to a [[special move]].
* Lance, [[Koga]], [[Bruno]] and [[Caitlin]] are the only Elite Four members who have appeared in more than one generation (excluding [[remake]]s).
** Lance, Koga, and Bruno are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all the generations prior to [[Generation V]].
* Excluding [[remake]]s, Lance is the only Champion that was introduced in a previous generation, and the only Champion to use only Pokémon introduced in a previous generation.
* Lance's Gyarados, Charizard and Dragonite can appear to level down, if the player decides to battle him and [[Clair]] in [[Dragon's Den]] before collecting all 16 badges and the Elite Four upgrading their teams in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, as they are level 68 - 75 in the [[tag battle]] and are level 48 - 50 when re-challenged at the [[Indigo League]].
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, in the [[Mahogany Town]] souvenir store, Lance commands his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} to use {{m|Hyper Beam}}, yet the attack Dragonite uses more closely resembles {{m|Giga Impact}}.
* In the manga, Lance and the [[Elite Four]]'s motivations are similar to the plans of [[N]] and [[Team Plasma]]. Both pretend to summon a legendary Pokémon ({{p|Lugia}} or {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} respectively) in order to create an utopia for Pokémon.
* In Generation {{gen|IV}}, all of his Pokémon except {{p|Aerodactyl}} suffer double weakness. {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, and {{p|Dragonite}} suffer double weakness against {{type2|Ice}}, {{p|Gyarados}} for {{type2|Electric}}, and {{p|Charizard}} with {{type2|Rock}}.

:More than 1900 of them exist on the {{wp|list of jōyō kanji}}, the official list of kanji used by the Japanese government and taught to students in Japanese schools. Hiragana and katakana, however, amount to just about 100 when put together. Considering Pokémon's supposed to be for all ages, they don't throw in difficult-as-hell kanji that kids won't know, especially ones that look really indistinguishable on a small screen.

What, no mention of Lance's Gamesharky tendencies? He's had two Pokémon with moves they couldn't actually learn--the Dragonite with Barrier (which it has ''never'' been able to learn) in Red/Blue and the Aerodactyl with Rock Slide (which it couldn't learn at the time) in Gold/Silver. [[User:Zdododododo|Zdododododo]] 02:53, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

== Red/Blue Dragonite ==

I've heard that Lance's Dragonair/Dragonite in Red/Blue will not use Slam or Hyper Beam if you send out a Grass- or Poison-type Pokémon against him. It's partially mentioned [http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/gameboy/file/367023/37094 here]. I've unintentionally tested this myself during a normal playthrough, where I had only a Level 40 Weezing against Lance's Dragonite. The battle took forever, but Dragonite used only Agility and Barrier against Weezing. Could this be added to the article? Thanks. [[User:Ultraflame|Ultraflame]] 19:35, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[[User:RovingTrainer|RovingTrainer]]

==Not a Gym Leader?==
Lance is in the Gym leader category, but on his edit page there is no place to remove the Gym Leader Category tag, so I couldn't remove it. Lance is not a gym leader, so I'm not sure why he's been put in that category. [[User:Jacobe|Jacobe]] 20:03, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

== Clair's and Lance's names ==

Could it be possible that Clair's and Lance's are related to the word clairvoyance? If you take the L out of Lance, the two have their names in clairvoyance. I know clairvoyance would be more related to psychic than dragon, but dragons are mystical creatures and clairvoyance is a mystical ability.

I'm waiting for a third Dragon trainer called Voy (or something like that) to show up if this is true.

Why is his Dragonite a single Pokémon? Why not make it like Steven's? Maybe I'd understand it if it was his only Pokémon, but still, it's pretty weird. {{color|00DD00|--[[User:Bulbafan|Bulbafan]] 23:50, 28 September 2009 (UTC)}}

:Seems as if some, like Flaaffy and Skiploom, are flipped. --'''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 22:52, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

::Wow, I actually remember those lists from back when G/S wasn't out in English yet. Every site had their own list of names that were confirmed, then had potential names that had been registered as copyrights or whatever listed somewhere and had people try to figure out which name went to which Pokémon.

::So, of course, the reason a few of them are mixed around is because the list was made when we could see what names had been registered (domain names of each Pokémon's name usually get registered by Nintendo ahead of time, or something like that); nobody knew what a Skiploom actually was, so Flaaffy ended up with the name Skiploom in most fans' lists (I guess nobody noticed the hop-skip-jump thing.)

::There's even a few of the common misspellings of the Japanese names that showed up in a lot of magazines and stuff before G/S's English release. "Hane"/"Popo" instead of Hanekko/Popokko, for example. With those in the list, I'm actually surprised the list doesn't have "Yanyan" listed as Umbreon/Burakki's Japanese name--that was a disturbingly common slip-up that magazines used to make back then.

::I do remember some of those names, but as far as I know "Natee" and "Natotem" never actually came from any sort of official source (either stated in Nintendo Power or registered online somewhere)--I actually remember talking about how "Xatu" and "Xoqo" (the guesses for Natu and Xatu's names at the time) were good names once, and someone randomly butted in and said that they should be named "something like Naytee or Natotem" instead. So yeah, those two are definitely fan-made names, probably made by people who wanted Cheesy Cram-Two-Words-Together Names and didn't like the much-more-interesting ones like Xatu. I also don't remember "Octorock" as a name for Tsubotsubo--and it's extremely unlikely that Nintendo was ever considering it, since it's already the name of a well-known Zelda monster.

All of the Kanto names mentioned on these and other websites are genuine beta names. The poster included with my first edition 2BA Master CD had about 15 out 150 pokemon with the bizarre beta names like "dragoon" and "Guardia". These names are on the Pokemon's individual pages but they should be collected together. Same with the gold and silver names, at least a paragraph explaining the confusion that occurred among the fans. Sorry if this entry is too long and rambly :) [[User:Jurgen200|Jurgen200]]

== Unown ==

Those "unreleased" Unown don't have to be unreleased.

*They don't count as Beta Pokémon because they were revealed after the release of Gold/Silver.
*I doubt they were ever meant to exist in games. They might be just anime-made.
*The pictures of Unowns seen in third movie are just pictures of several drawings of Unown. They may be a pure fiction. That's possible that these Unowns never existed, but someone drew them like that.

This page is about Pokémon which didn't make it to the final game. Those Unowns aren't one of them. They are anime-wank and no one says they were ever meant to exist. Those pictures in the movie were just DRAWINGS made by PEOPLE, not photos of real Unown. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 18:15, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

== Green? It's BLUE! and other conflicts involving the Character section ==

I was reading a scanlation of Pokémon Special when I saw one of the pics that's in
this article in it!(It's the black-and-white pic of Red, Green, and Blue with thier fully-evolved starters.) I was immediatly reminded of the article and went to it, sure that the page
said that the pic was beta art.

And I was wrong, but I saw something else!

The page said that the girl in the aforementioned pic was Green.

Either Green had a gender change or the article's wrong!

Here's who's who- with the boys equated with their Anime counterparts-

Red-"Ash"

Green-"Gary"

Blue-the girl

The article needs fixing, but since this also goes into parts I don't know about-
I'm still reading Red-Green-Blue- I can't fully proofread it.

Also, I think the book under the color pic showing Red, Green, and Blue with
thier unevolved starters is Pokemon Special- at least a copy of it.

== Unnamed Turtle And Shuckle? ==

Though the article states it is similar to Squirtle, could it possibly be an evolved form of Shuckle? They both have a shell, they both have similarly shaped heads and considering Shuckle was introduced in generation II, it could have been an expansion on the family. Think of the expansions on gen II families in gen IV. This could have been the same thing. I do agree, however, it does look like Squirtle though.

== Moving to Prototype Pokemon and characters... ==

I'd like to suggest that this article be moved to "Prototype Pokémon and characters". Not only does this article list things that have been unreleased, but it also lists Pokemon whose designs had simply been alerted, and are therefore still technically released. "Prototype" can easily refer to both kinds, so I'd like to suggest that the article be moved to that. [[User:Rai Marshall|Rai Marshall]] 19:49, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
: I concur ''[[User:Sui|'''Sui''']][[User talk:Sui|'''Scorpio''']]'' 02:23, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

::Because half of this page is "altered", not "unreleased", I think the more universal term "prototype" is better suited. '''[[User:Toon Ganondorf|Toon Ganondorf ]] [[User Talk:Toon Ganondorf|(t]] [[Special:Contributions/Toon Ganondorf|c)]]''' 06:34, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
:::First, I think that early Capsule Monsters should be covered separately and things like Bellossom should be deleted. It doesn't fit here. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 07:41, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

::::Even if a listing of Capsule Monsters do get their own page, there's still other kinds of Pokemon designs that were still simply alerted, like those Gen II alters. There's still a reason for this to be called "Prototype Pokémon and characters". [[User:Rai Marshall|Rai Marshall]] 20:03, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::Why should Bellossom be deleted? It was altered before release, and is relevant to the article. '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 20:09, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
::::::Also, I would support the move. '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 20:11, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::::Actually, the artwork with purple Bellossom is its actual GS artwork (a final thing, not an early sketch like the rest). So, it's not really unreleased. At the same logic, we should also add Slowpoke here because it had a stripped belly in the original GSC. Many Pokemon has been given cosmetic design changes over the generations and it's really hard to call their older designs "prototype". --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 07:54, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
[[File:1999 Bellossom Artwork.png|thumb|right]]
:The Bellossom artwork was like that years before G/S were released, they just never bothered changing it. And Slowpoke is hardly the same, that was just a sprite error. '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 09:36, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
::Sprite error? "Error" implies accident. This doesn't look like an accident. There's no artwork from that era which contradicts that "error", hence no proof that it's an error. And the fact that Bellossom's artwork wasn't changed means that it's to be treated as a final thing. And compared to the other prototypes we have, it's a really minor change. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 14:18, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
:::I support the move: I just think that a word better than prototype could be chose. It sounds too mechanical. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 14:25, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
::::In response to the Bellossom point. The alterations to Bellossom are the same as those that Jynx undertook. They were both one color-scheme up until some time after their release, and then they were both changed post-release. If one should be included here then so should the other I would think. Thanks.

:::::Error does not always mean accidental, it can also mean they screwed it up. A good example is the 'upside down' Koffing from Red and Blue (or any other sprite from Red/Green/Blue), obviously intentional. And Slowpoke's striped belly has not been seen in the anime, TCG, or any other media, even though it should be partially visible in [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:SabrinaSlowpokeGymHeroes95.jpg its TCG artwork] and [http://pkmncollectors.livejournal.com/3016560.html its Ken Suginori Bandai artwork].

::That's like saying that Charmander was 'prototype' because it once had spikes on its back. Ken Sugimori's early art had a lot of things depicted that were either changed or remove in subsequent games. Likewise with in-game sprites, such as the GRB Machamp with spikes on its head. But in all honesty, this section is supposed to be for discussion on whether this article should be moved, NOT whether Bellossum or Slowpoke was prototype. Can someone please split this up?

:Both are video quality's fault. When the screenshot of Wynaut surfaced, we have already had its artwork revealed and it looked just like now, so there was never a design change.

== Buizel ==

I remember I saw once a scan of a magazine released before the release of D&P showing a black siloutte of Buizel with two "collars" instead of one. If I find it again may this added to this page? Also the Unnamed turtle actually have legs, it isn't "just a head sticking out of a shell". --[[User:SamuStar|SamuStar]] 16:27, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

== Altered human designs ==

There's a template for Altered Pokemon Designs, so why not for the humans? I can think of a few who received design overhauls.. As said Silver's hair was shorter in the concept art, Kris seems to have gotten a design overhaul from the beta to the main product, and that seems to be Red in the Capsule Monster sketches.

Seriously... Who? I thought the fish was Basculin but the name does not match, then we have that... Siloutte thing next to Deerling that does not match any of the forms of neither Deerling or Sawsbuck, Alomomola design is noticeable different (and shares traits with Luvdisc: Shape, "blush sticker" and mouth, I think it was once planned to be an evolution) and Pansage is fat.

I also noticed the battle sprites are similar to those of Generation IV, same half-body back-sprites.

Here's a [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:Contributions/Chickasaurus whole bunch of stuff to add] for someone who has the time to add it in. [[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']][[Koffing (Pokémon)| ☠]] 19:36, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
:I plan on adding these soon. They supposedly originated on Game Freak's blog in one of the archived posts, though I wasn't able to find it; I read about it as a recent addition on the Japanese Pokémon Wiki, and I believe its been [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/members/1970/30491/index6.html considered] before about adding these when SmearglePaints ({{user|Redstar}}) brought it up on the forums last year.

:There is a [http://hakuda2.web.fc2.com/ir/poke4/trust.html Japanese website] focusing on lost Pokémon which hosts that artwork and has further information about more Generation II lost Pokémon other than the three 'starters' and variations (namely 'Akua', 'Akueria', 'Netamon' and 'Elekingu') which were apparently seen in the [[Nintendo World|Nintendo Space World 1997]] demo but had only their names shown. The Japanese Pokémon Wiki also had these and more variations which none of the other sources mention, though I don't know of the validity. I uploaded the Japanese Pokémon Blue artwork because of some of the ambiguous designs, I don't know if they should count though. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 20:58, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

== Some early designs ==

Early artwork on the pocket monsters cardass trading cards page shows a pikachu with a white belly and large execute with small ones the designs are the same as what they looked like in there red blue and green sprites so i think they should be on this page because the kakuna and rhyhorn with the same story are on there. Also there is a graveler with golden fingures on that page too.

== Unnamed Turtle ==

I think the unnamed turtle could be a Pokémon with no roots in any other Pokémon, meaning it was originally going to be a seperate Pokémon but was completely scrapped, and perhaps it was related to Kurusu. Can anyone shoot me down with fact?

== Even more designs ==

Recently, this year [http://bbs.tgbus.com/viewthread.php?action=printable&tid=1932117 users on TGBUS] revealed a few more designs, and annotated some of the existing ones in English e.g. "The inside of a hotel. You can see a device for healing your Pokémon inside". I've seen the former sprites (below) on 2chan, but was unsure of its legitimacy, since its marked December 1997. It would be most appreciated if someone could translate it. I have heard that Nyosuka and others were mentioned once on Gamefreak's official Japanese website, but I can't find the original page and I'm unsure if images of them were ever officially revealed. Sorry, if that's a lot to ask for though.

'''Brock's Chansey''' (Japanese: '''タタケシのラッキー''' ''Takeshi's Lucky'') is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{an|Brock}} hatched from an {{pkmn|egg}} as a {{p|Happiny}} in ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]''. She is the second [[baby Pokémon]] Brock has {{pkmn2|caught}}, after {{TP|Brock|Bonsly|Sudowoodo}}, and the second egg he took care of after {{TP|Misty|Togepi|Togetic}}. She is the overall tenth Pokémon Brock has ever caught.

==History==
[[File:Happiny egg.png|thumb|200px|left|Happiny's egg]]
Brock won Happiny's {{pkmn|egg}} in a Pokémon cosplay contest in ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere To Go!]]'' by entering his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} dressed up as a {{p|Politoed}}. He was overjoyed to take care of the egg, as he showed in [[DP034|the next episode]] when he rubbed his cheek against it affectionately.

In ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'', while traveling on [[Sinnoh Route 206|Cycling Road]], the egg began to glow. After taking it to a [[Pokémon Center]] and receiving assistance from [[Nurse Joy]], the egg hatched into Happiny. Soon after birth, she began crying for a stone to hold as a fake egg. Brock found a white stone and polished it into an egg-like shape for her. [[Team Rocket]] snatched Happiny away before he could give the stone to her. Eventually Happiny was returned to Brock and received her "egg". Immediately after, she offered it back to Brock as a sign of friendship. He gave it back to her and then captured her in a [[Poké Ball]].

Like most baby Pokémon, she became very attached to her {{pkmn|Trainer}} very quickly. She was upset when taken out of Brock's care, and refused to cooperate with Team Rocket completely. Unlike Bonsly, however, she did not cry and fuss; she actually fought back against {{cat|Team Rocket's Pokémon}} after Brock had been hurt: Happiny quickly knocked {{MTR}}, {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}}, and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} out of her way and flung [[Jessie's Seviper]] by the tail so she could get back to her trainer, who she then launched several meters into the air.

[[File:Brock Happiny.png|thumb|right|250px|As a Happiny]]
Happiny has a cheerful personality, and is playful and energetic. Rather than walking, she is usually held in Brock's arms, much like {{an|Misty}} did with her Togepi. She also is sometimes seen sleeping or playing with {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. Sometimes she was seen riding on {{AP|Pikachu}}'s back, as seen in ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]'' and ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''.

Happiny has extraordinary strength for a baby Pokémon. Examples of this appear in ''[[DP057|Bibarel Gnaws Best!]]'', where she carried many heavy boulders, and in ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]'' and ''[[DP073|Crossing Paths]]'', where in both she lifted and threw a big boulder. She saved Team Rocket, Dawn, and their Pokémon from falling in ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', and saved Brock and {{si|Autumn}} from falling off a bridge by hurling them high through the air to the other side of it in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''.

She was also seen walking in [[Canalave City]] whilst lifting {{AP|Ash's Grotle|Torterra}}—who was comically tired due to its new form—with one arm in ''[[DP103|Jumping Rocket Ship!]]''. She was also able to stop {{an|Dawn}}'s {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine|Mamoswine}} from rampaging in ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'' with help of her strength. Later, on ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', when {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} tossed Dawn up into the air, Happiny caught her just in time.

[[File:Happiny strong.png|thumb|250px|left|Happiny's strength]]
The only times where her strength was not enough were in ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'' (where she tried to pull off a tight manhole cover, but failed), and in ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]'' (where she tried lifting a massive boulder, but collapsed under the weight and was knocked out). Any other time, she successfully brought out her special and uncommon power.

In ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' Happiny learned how to use {{m|Secret Power}} in order to save Autumn and Ilta from a group of Beedrill. She also used {{m|Secret Power}} later on in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' to put Team Rocket to sleep so that Brock and Autumn could get away.

Brock was going to use Happiny in her first battle against [[Marilyn]]'s {{p|Shellder}} in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]'', but right before the battle started, Team Rocket interrupted and tried to steal Marilyn's other Pokémon. Before they could, Happiny was able to send them flying with her powerful {{m|Pound}} attack.

In ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]'', a group of {{p|Tentacruel}} attacked the boat that {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} were taking back to [[Twinleaf Town]]. Their {{m|Poison Sting}} attack caused many of the [[Baby Pokémon]] to become poisoned. Despite all that Brock and the others were doing to help, they were not getting any better. After seeing this Happiny evolved into {{p|Chansey}} in order to help the baby Pokémon. After she evolved into Chansey, she was able to heal Pichu and all of the baby Pokémon of the {{status|poison}} with her newly learned {{m|Softboiled}} move.

[[File:Brock Sudowoodo Happiny.png|thumb|200px|Happiny and Sudowoodo]]
* Chansey was first revealed as a Happiny in a Japanese movie poster for ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''.
* Chansey is the first {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon owned by Brock.
* For ''[[DP070|The Bells are Singing!]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Brock's Happiny.
* As a Happiny, she was the first among the main characters' Pokémon to have been given and kept a held item, in this case, an {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Oval Stone}} made by Brock.
* Although Chansey learned {{m|Secret Power}} as Happiny in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories]]'', she hasn't used the move since that episode.
* Of Pokémon obtained during the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, Happiny took the longest to evolve, at 152 episodes.
** Out of all Pokémon belonging to the main cast, Happiny also took the longest to evolve while her Trainer was continuously part of the main cast, with said Pokémon never leaving the Trainer's [[Party|possession]].
*She is Brock's first female confirmed Pokémon.

Talk:Mewtwo (Pokémon)

2011-11-22T19:10:21Z

KurowaSan: /* Niue Coin */ new section

== Lucario ==

Nice touch with the line about it not evolving given all the speculation about Lucario. ([[User:Argy|Argy]])

These pages deal with known data, not random speculation. On top of that, there is no history of any legendary Pokemon evolving.
--[[User:Jshadias|Jshadias]] 00:14, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

That was what I was referring to- the random, unfounded speculation going on at various forums. Before I saw that all non-evolving Pokemon had that line, I thought it was a nice touch to emphasize reality. ([[User:Argy|Argy]])

== Movie ==

Wait a minute... what was the second movie Mewtwo was the subject in? (Given Mewtwo Strikes Back is the first) If there was one before it, is there a reason it isn't listed in the movie section? -OmegaPlatinum

:[[Mewtwo Returns]]. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 12:24, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

::And the only reason why it wasn't listed in the movie section was because it really wasn't a movie. It was a TV special under the same lines of [[Raikou: The Legend Of Thunder]]. 4Kids thought that they could change the wording and certain dialogue so it WOULD seem like an ACTUAL movie even though it really wasn't.

::[[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 23:55, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

==only one==
is there only one mewtwo or is there more?
:One per game. One in the anime. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 09:29, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

In the Anime, yes there WAS only one, but it was hinted that they could have made many more of his species had he not destroyed their lab (Random scientist: Very Good, Excellent! Let's work on Mewthree!
-Pokemon the first movie). And as for the games, yes, they made it quite clear in the games that Mewtwo is unique and one of a kind (the stadium games and the Mystery dungeon series don't count [and by stadium games, I mean just Pokemon Stadium ZERO (the unreleased japanese version), Pokemon Stadium, and Pokemon Stadium 2. I consider Colosseum/XD/Battle Revolution to be a different series from Stadium.].)

[[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 23:55, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

But in FireRed and LeafGreen, they never mentioned about making another Mew clone. [[User:BlueJirachi|BlueJirachi]] 14:45, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Well, they never had it appear in Gold/Silver, they never had it appear in the Colosseum games, they never even had it appear in the Ranger games. the only games it appeared in besides Gen I and it's remakes is the Mystery Dungeon series and the Stadium games, which really don't count in regards to the games canon (heck, the Mystery dungeon games don't even take PLACE on the main Pokemon world.). and of course they didn't mention making another mew clone, because Mewtwo blew up the place before they could even record the idea. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 15:38, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

== "Born" or "created" ==

Nevermind, I found them. I was mistaken and Mew did give birth to Mewtwo.--[[User:Ceol|Ceol]] 16:05, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

:No, Mew did not physically give birth to Mewtwo. Mewtwo is a genetically inhanced clone of Mew. The whole concept of "Mew gave birth" is a metaphor for the fact that after a long time of creating clones of Mew that didn't survive the cloning process, the scientists were finally able to create a living clone from Mew's DNA. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 22:02, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
::Well, but a clone once created, must be implanted on a mother's womb to survive and grow. So, mew actually ''gave birth to Mewtwo''. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 23:41, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
:::Mewtwo was never in or near Mew when he was created. He was in his cloning tank until he finally broke it open when he was grown. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 20:31, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Go and read about cloning in the read world and you'll understand. Don't guide yourself by the anime. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 23:57, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
:I know about cloning in the real world, thank you. But by the anime, Mewtwo was in a tank for the first part of his life and no where else. And because he is a fictional cartoon/video game character, there is no other side to the story, meaning if being implanted wasn't shown or mentioned, then it didn't happen. People can make up theories of what they assume is truth but assuming is not truth and fictional characters don't have alternative sides because they are not real. And even if Mew "gave birth", how did the scientists get their hands on a Mew to implant Mewtwo? It was only mentioned that they found a fossilized eyebrow of a Mew. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 22:44, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
::“Mew gave birth” is only in the games. Things from the show (eyebrow, tank etc.) are not relevant to how the ''games'' do things. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 05:00, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
:::The anime is based off of the games and the anime goes indepth with almost everything in Pokemon. It was never mentioned in the game how Mewtwo was cloned or if he was implanted. "Mew gave birth" is considered a metaphor for the fact that the scientists were finally able to successfully create a clone of Mew. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 15:22, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
::::False. The anime is LOSELY based off the games. Hence the anime's Magnemites and Koffings don't need "partners" of the same specie in order to evolve, Red and Green are named Ash and Gary, and Mewtwo is a clone which wasn't created on Cinnabar Island. {{unsigned|Spideym}}
:::::The anime is based on the games in therms of major events, such as catching Pokémon, battling, encountering some characters, etc., not because of it shows some Pokémon before the time (such as Kecleon or Wynaut) it goes in depth of everything on Pokémon, it means that it is just media where Satoshi Tajiri wants to give an update of what's coming. So, according to the games (and basing on how cloning works on real world), Mewtwo was born from Mew. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 01:06, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
::::::Choose to believe what you want but Mewtwo was cloned in the anime and the games and was not technically born. Mewtwo's Red and Blue entry "It was created by a scientist after years of horrific gene splicing and DNA engineering experiments" meaning it was cloned. It was never stated that Mewtwo was inplanted in Mew and there is no proof of that. The book that said "Mew gave birth" is all you have to go by and it's most likely a metaphor and not a literal statement.--'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 22:33, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
Cloned and born is the same. There is no clone that grows in a tank. If the anime showed something like that is just because it's children-oriented and some children just don't know how they born. Also I don't think it's important either, this looks like a forum thread. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 04:18, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
:You and I both know that the Pokémon world works differently from our own. So, having a clone grow inside a tank in the Pokémon world is highly possible considering all the other technology that is used. And clones are different from naturally created creatures. They are not created the same way. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 22:34, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
:: To be honest, as much as we say giving birth is a metaphor, etc. At the end of the day, things stated as fact in the anime are NOT considered to be true in the games. In the games, disregarding all evidence from the anime, we are told nothing about Mewtwo's creation other than that it was cloned (I think this first appears in Yellow's dex, but I'm not sure) and that Mew gave birth to it. We also know that these two events are possible to both be true. Additionally, I seem to recall the information about Mew giving birth to Mewtwo being written in someone's log of events - it seems unlikely that they would use metaphors in a log of events. Basically, what I'm trying to say is, based on the evidence exhibited in the games, NOT IN THE ANIME, clearly, Mewtwo was cloned from Mew, and Mew gave birth to Mewtwo.- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Gastly's mama|Gastly's mama]] ([[User talk:Gastly's mama|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Gastly's mama|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''
:::Unless you can prove its a metaphor, its stays. It gave birth. Says so in the game, and last time i checked, this is the game article.[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((曲奇饼妖怪]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Spy on My Edits))]]
::::You make it sound like Mewtwo was conceived. "It was created by a scientist after years of horrific gene splicing and DNA engineering experiments."-Mewtwo's Red/Blue Pokédex entry. Technically by this, Mewtwo was created by a scientist after years of DNA experiments. All of Mewtwo's Pokédex entries except Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Stadium 2; mention something about genetic mutation and engineering. It was never stated that after the scientific genetic engineering, Mewtwo was implanted into Mew. Sure, in the real world, a clone is implanted into a parent, but you and i know that the real world and the Pokémon world can be quite different from each other. And with this being an encyclopedia, you can't just assume something took place because that's what would really happen. Either it was a metaphor refering to the fact that after years of attempting to successfully clone something from Mew, the scientists were finally able to create something (something being born of Mew's DNA), or Nintendo/GameFreak really wanted to confuse people on how Mewtwo was created, in the games anyway. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 01:20, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
:I will find the screenshot. it Literally says "Mew gave Birth TYoday, we called it Mewtwo. Check in fir red, journal on the third floor.[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((曲奇饼妖怪]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Spy on My Edits))]]
:: What I was trying to say was that (in agreement with DCM) since in the games it says that it was both spliced (pokedex entry) and born (pokemon journal), and we know it is possible for both to happen at once, surely the only reasonable conclusion to draw
is that both DID happen? [[User:Gastlys mama|Gastlys mama]] 18:39, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

== Shiny coloration ==

Just stating that the gold may have been a poor excuse for a type of olive green or the such, and they decided to define it more in the coming generations. - [[User:JWhitt|J]][[User_talk:JWhitt|Whitt]] 13:40, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
:Wait, how do you get a shiny Mewtwo in Gold and Silver?[[User:Shadow1337|Shadow1337]] 17:24, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
::I'm not 100% sure but i think that if your Mewtwo has an IV value less than 8 in your blue, red, or yellow game, and you trade him over to your silver, gold, or crystal game, it will become shiny. --'''[[User:InuMimi|いぬ]][[User talk:InuMimi|みみ]]''' 18:55, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

:::What's with this green coloration? I thought it was black. Or is that just the Mewtwo i obtained through a Brainboy cheat device? It looks black on the GBC screen, and on Pokémon stadium 2 in both the stadium and during gameboy mode. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 02:34, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

::::So can anyone tell me whats with the difference. I'm kind of figuring that somewhere in the extraction process the sprites colors were messed up. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 19:37, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

==Dodging Balls==
I haven't seen ANYTHING on this page pointing out that Mewtwo would actually dodge Poké Balls in Red, Blue, and Yellow. I think it should be included, since it's the only catchable Pokémon that's ever done so. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 16:48, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
:The only Pokemon that dodges Poke Balls is the ghost Marowak. Poke Balls thrown at Mewtwo can miss, yes, which is different from "break out without shaking"—but this is the case for any "special" Pokemon in RBY, including Snorlax. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 22:08, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
::A pokemon that has Dug, Flown, etc cant be caught, and I distinctly remember Zapdos pokeballs--[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((Nag at Me!]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Edits))]]

::::In the original games?--[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((Nag at Me!]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Edits))]]
:::::In the original games, and in fact all games, Dig and Fly make no difference in whether a monster can dodge the ball. It is based solely on whether the encounter is special (legends, Snorlax) or if the player is in the Safari Zone. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 01:44, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
In the original games, there was a very slim chance of Pokémon dodging, see [[Poké Ball#Poké Ball Accuracy|this article]] for details. It's limited to Safari Zone, Snorlax and Legendaries (which would include Mewtwo). ←{'''[[User:Berrymaster|Berrymaster]]|[[User_talk:Berrymaster|Talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Berrymaster|Contrib]]'''}→ 22:39, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
:I'm sure it wasn't that slim. I remember (unless using Master Ball) having to put all legendaries to sleep before the ball would hit them. Snorlax too, but it wasn't exactly difficult to get Snorlax to sleep... [[User:Gastly's mama|Gastly's mama]] 21:01, 20 November 2008 (UTC) [[User:Gastly's Mama|Gastly's Mama]]

== Diet... ==

No one is really quite sure if Mewtwo even eats, so shouldn't something be done about the diet section? We've never really seen Mewtwo eat. [[User:Animine|Animine]] 01:49, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
:Pokémon food's the basic answer for it all. Plus, um, try feeding poffin or Pokéblocks to Mewtwo, it eats those in the games. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 02:02, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

== Manga... ==

{{spoilers}}
The Mewtwo in Special is actually quite a prominent character, having appeared in the series which starred Red as a main character. While it doesn't make much of an appearance in the RGB saga, it actually makes a difference in the Yellow saga, with Yellow imitating the Psywave attack to supposedly defeat Lance. Even after that, in the FRLG saga, Mewtwo actually becomes part of the crew, having defeated R once, rescued Green's parents, beating the shit out of Deoxys and being the main reason why Red, Blue, Green, Yellow and Silver were turned to stone. So why not have an extra page for it? '''[[User:Optimatum|<sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Optimatum|Talk]]|[[User:Optimatum/sig/Pikachu|Links]] 09:46, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

== Super Smash Bros Melee ==

Isn't "''Mewtwo is considered to be the poorest character when played at the highest metagame. It is easy to knock off the stage due to its large body and light weight. In addition, Mewtwo is slow, does not have any fast defensive options and also has general problems with some of its other moves. This all leads to Mewtwo's position in the bottom tier.''" an opinion? I thought we are supposed to represent a neutral point of view? In my opinion Mewtwo actually ''isn't'' that bad. [[User:Firestorm|--Fire]][[User talk:Firestorm|storm]] 03:09, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
:What you're saying is a personal opinion. What you've quoted is actually considered to be true by a lot of people, plus it's almost all true anyway - Mewtwo is slower than Ganondorf, Has NO offensive moves (besides Shadow Ball, which takes forever to charge, and then loses it if you get hit in the middle of charging), and falls about as fast as Metal Mario. Personally, I remember him being a heavyweight, but...yea. He pretty much sucked all by himself Me and my fellow torchics agree on this - [[User:Sk8torchic|Sk8torchic]]. 21:51, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
::Pretty much everything metagame is an opinion, so.... eh. If it was me, I'd delete it, though. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 08:12, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

== Similarity to Giegue/Giygas ==

Is it worth mentioning that Mewtwo has a similar appearance to Giygas [http://earthbound.wikia.com/wiki/Giygas] from the Mother series' form in the original Mother? Obviously the whole "resembles Freeza from Dragon Ball Z" thing is way too out of whack, but both Mewtwo and Giygas have various similarities, including the tails, the ears, the similar bad tempers, the white bodies and the fact that the team that worked on the Mother series also worked on the Pokémon series.--[[User:Jake|Jake]] 16:56, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
:Do we have any... real art of Giygas that actually shows him as a whole being? That's tiny art at best, and at that size, Gold looks like Red. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 17:13, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
::Real art, no and I will admit that it having "similar ears" is a bit sketchy, but it's confirmed to have a tail in the game via dialogue. The tail is fairly visible if you mainly look at the Mewtwo looking thing in the middle and not the orb/shield thing around it.--[[User:Jake|Jake]] 14:24, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

== false info? ==

The article says mewtwo is the first pokemon to use a genII move, but i think that's false.

for one thing I'm pretty sure Mewtwo doesn't use that spherical attack until his battle with mew.

From how Mewtwo acts using psychic in Stadium, and given that psychic can be in a spherical form it might just be psychic he's using.

Donphan uses Rollout at the opening battle. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 19:37, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

:Well how are you so sure Donphan is using Rollout? We have just as much evidence that it uses Rollout as Mewtwo's using Shadow Ball: on the basis that it looks like that traditional attack. Also, SSBM Mewtwo, who is obviously based on the movie Mewtwo, has Shadow Ball as an attack. I will give you that Donphan most likely displayed the first Gen II move but Mewtwo most likely used Shadow Ball. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 21:13, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

::Well it does get hard to tell when the creators can't keep a conform appearance to moves. Psychic has been used as balls of energy, common levelitation of the opponent then throwing the opponent. I think its even been used as a force field.

::I'm pretty sure Donphan takes the goal for first II gen move used. If i remember the beginning of the movie right, mewtwo mostly just used shock wave like attacks and levitation. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 21:19, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
:::Levitation. That's how Psychic is shown in the anime. Mewtwo definitely used Shadow Ball. But Donphan did technically use Rollout earlier in the movie. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 21:26, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Its not my oppinion, even TTE said Donphan used Rollout earlier in the movie. A mod and a article both says that a move was used by donphan who does it before mewtwo so the Trivia is false. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 21:49, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

== Ruby/Sapphire, FireRed/LeafGreen Sprites ==

The Ruby and Sapphire sprite for Mewtwo is the same as the FireRed and LeafGreen sprite, so is there a reason to why [[Image:Spr 3f 150.png]] and it's Shiny counterpart do not have Sprites uploaded?
If it's because they are the same, then why hasn't the Sprite Template for Mewtwo been edited so it just shows the same image for Ruby & Sapphire as for FireRed & LeafGreen? Just a thought... [[User:ASecondOpinion1501|ASecondOpinion1501]] 15:55, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:If they are ''exactly'' the same then the page on the archives needs to be redirected to the RS sprite, rather than the same sprite being uploaded again. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 18:25, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Do you you think that this article should mention is the trivia that the fire+leaf mewtwo can't hurt saybleye? I know it is pretty irrelevent, but if I would have known that, then I would have another master ball. as a note, spirtitomb is also immune, but he is in gen. 4 {{unsigned|The snargret guy}}

In Pokemon HG and SS Mewtwo's battle song is a remix of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl's wild battle song. -[[User:Pkmn master|Pkmn master]] 11:35:39, 13 Febuary 2010
:Uh.. no it's not. It's battle song is the same as any other Wild Pokémon in Kanto.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] 16:39, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

== Amber/Movie Content ==

I don't think the whole Amber/"Mewtwo Returns" stuff should be mentioned here. That part has nothing to do with the games and it was added to the story of the first movie much later. Maybe the whole movie content shouldn't be mentioned. I think that belongs to the page [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Mewtwo_(anime) Mewtwo (anime)] only. {{unsigned|Aicona}}
:A lot of what we get for the behavior sections comes straight from the anime or manga. Barely any of it is explained in the games for any Pokémon. The only reason Amber is mentioned for Mewtwo is because her loss is part of what psychologically changed his way of thinking. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 21:34, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

== Trivia Too Long ==
I think the trivia on Mewtwo's page is way too long, and could really use a trim-down. Especially things that are not unique to Mewtwo, like noting that it and Rayquaza are the only Pokémon with their base stat total not to have signature moves. I'd be willing to go in and clean this up, along with trivia sections on the rest of the species pages, if the admins would like me to. --[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]][[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 07:11, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

== Nocturnal? ==

At the end of Mewtwo Returns, it was stated that Mewtwo had chosen to roam freely at night. Being the only one, this would make its species nocturnal. Should this be added to the behavior section? --'''[[User:EpicShadow|Epic]][[User talk:EpicShadow|Shadow]]''' 03:58, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

:: Ihave no doubt that was the reason. But even with a reason it still makes him nocturnal.

:::::::Yes, the article refers to Mewtwo as it. That's because in all canons there is only one of them. It doesn't mean that it is the same one in all the canons.

 [[User:Pgj1997|Pgj1997]]
:It's a lie. There are users here who have sucessfully caught Mewtwo in a regular Poké Ball. Also, please don't put a linebreak before your signature. A space is fine. Thanks. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 08:10, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

== Incorrect Trivia ==

Mewtwo has not got the highest base stat total of all psychic-type pokemon as arceus with a plate has 720. {{unsigned|Mattrules161}}
:I think the trivia entry was supposed to mean he has the highest base stat total of all natural psychic-type pokémon. Arceus doesn't quite count since it needs a psychic plate to even become psychic type, and is by default a normal type. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 14:45, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

== Niue Coin ==

About the trivia for the Niue coin, I found this one, a ten-dollar coin: www.ngccoin.com/poplookup/WorldCoinPrices.aspx?category=105024&worldcoinid=272241
But searching on this same site, other Niue coins featuring Mewtwo, with different values (1 dollar and 50 dollars, I think) appear too.
Also, other Pokémon were featured according to this site and to a quick search on eBay: http://search.reviews.ebay.com/?satitle=pokemon&ucat=6213&uqt=r
These pokémon also have different types of coins each.
How should this be portraited in the trivia? [[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 19:10, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

== Stone Edge ==

For looking at the moves schema, Roggenrola should be younger to learn Stone Edge. Also the animation of Stone Edge and Rock blast resemble each other a lot. Is there any implications to convince that it actually used Stone Edge in episode BW0037? {{unsigned|Quim}}
:It was stone edge without a doubt. Also, Iris did call it "stone edge" at 04:22 if you want to check out yourself. Along with that, the old animation of Rock Blast and Stone Edge was pretty similar but the animation has changed a lot in Best Wishes series and Rock Blast has not been used in this series as of yet so we can't judge it. ♫♪[[User:Adyniz|'''エイデ''']][[User talk:Adyniz|'''ィニズ''']]♪♫ 17:33, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

== Sturdy ==

Right at the beginning of the episode, when Roggenrola takes on Tepig's Flame Charge, Iris states that Roggenrola's ability is Sturdy.

Signature move

2011-01-07T20:33:24Z

KurowaSan:

'''Signature moves''' are [[move]]s that can only be learned by a single Pokémon or a very small select group of Pokémon by level-up, (unless the move cannot be learned by any Pokémon via level-up, in which case other methods are considered) usually in the same evolutionary line. Note that any of the moves included in this classification (except for {{m|Chatter}}) can be learned by {{p|Smeargle}} by use of {{m|Sketch}}, making Sketch and Chatter the only moves that are truly exclusive to one Pokémon legitimately. Also, some of these moves can be passed down via {{pkmn|breeding}} to other Pokémon.

==One-off signature moves==
This is a list of signature moves that at only one point, another Pokémon had the ability to acquire:

* A {{p|Dratini}} that knows '''{{m|ExtremeSpeed}}''' is obtainable in {{game|Crystal}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} after answering a quiz in the [[Dragon's Den]].
* An egg will be given by the daycare man in {{game|Crystal}} that hatches into a random baby Pokémon that knows '''{{m|Dizzy Punch}}'''.
* A {{p|Skitty}} with '''{{m|Pay Day}}''' can be obtained from a special {{Pkmn|egg}} after depositing 500 Pokémon in [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire]] from a Game Boy Advance game pak.
** Also, in Generation I, various other Pokémon can learn '''{{m|Pay Day}}''' through the use of [[TM16]].
* After [[Shadow Lugia|Lugia]] from [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] has been purified, it learns '''{{m|Psycho Boost}}''' and '''{{m|FeatherDance}}'''.
* Similarly, after {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Moltres}} from Pokémon XD have been purified, they all learn '''{{m|Extrasensory}}'''.
* A {{p|Darkrai}} with '''{{m|Roar of Time}}''' and '''{{m|Spacial Rend}}''' was available as a special giveaway to commemorate the [[M10|10th movie]].
* An {{p|Arceus}} with '''{{m|Roar of Time}}''', '''{{m|Spacial Rend}}''' and '''{{m|Shadow Force}}''' was available as a special giveaway to commemorate the [[M12|12th movie]].

==Other signature move examples==
* Although other Pokémon are capable of learning '''{{m|Drill Peck}}''', {{p|Fearow}}, {{p|Dodrio}}, and {{p|Zapdos}} are shown to be the most common Pokémon to use it.
* The {{p|Squirtle}} evolution family and {{p|Sharpedo}} are the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Skull Bash}}''' by leveling up, but other Pokémon could learn it through [[TM40]] in [[Generation I]].
* Although '''{{m|Megahorn}}''' was no longer {{p|Heracross}}'s signature move starting in [[Generation III]], it was still the only {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon that could learn the move prior to [[Generation V]], where Megahorn is now learnable by {{p|Pendra}}, {{p|Kaburumo}} and {{p|Shubarugo}}.
* {{p|Sudowoodo}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Mimic}}''' by leveling up in [[Generation II]], but other Pokémon could learn it through [[TM31]] in [[Generation I]] and [[move tutor]] in [[Generation III]].
* {{p|Lucario}} is usually associated with '''{{m|Aura Sphere}}''' and '''{{m|Force Palm}}''', but eight Pokémon (including Lucario) can learn Aura Sphere in total. Seven Pokémon (including Lucario) can learn Force Palm. In Generation V, Lucario an Kojondo are the only Fighting-type Pokémon to learn Aura Sphere naturally.
* {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Blastoise}} have traditionally been associated with '''{{m|Flamethrower}}''', '''{{m|SolarBeam}}''', and '''{{m|Hydro Pump}}''', respectively since [[Generation I]], despite the fact that many other Pokémon can learn those moves. In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], it even refers to {{m|Flamethrower}} as {{p|Charizard}}'s signature move.
* Eight Pokémon can currently learn {{p|Arcanine}}'s former signature move, '''{{m|ExtremeSpeed}}'''.
* {{p|Goldeen}} and {{p|Seaking}} had '''{{m|Waterfall}}''' as their signature move in [[Generation I]], before it was changed to a [[HM]]. They are still the only ones to learn it by level up.
* In [[Generation]]s {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}} is the only Pokémon who can learn '''{{m|Mega Kick}}'''. However, in Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, others could learn it through [[TM]] and [[move tutor]] respectively.
** As for '''{{m|Jump Kick}}''', it was its signature move for the first three generations; however, it was discovered that {{p|Buneary}} and {{p|Lopunny}} can learn it in Generation IV.
* Electrode are most commonly seen using {{m|Explosion}}, with it being shown to use it most in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* {{p|Jolteon}} and {{p|Vaporeon}}'s signature moves are said to be '''{{m|Pin Missile}}''' and '''{{m|Acid Armor}}''', respectively. Both abilities are alluded to in both Pokémon's various Pokédex entries. However, many Pokémon learn both moves by leveling up, and some through {{pkmn|breeding}}. Likewise, {{p|Umbreon}}'s '''{{m|Moonlight}}''' matches {{p|Espeon}}'s '''{{m|Morning Sun}}''', though others can learn it even in its introductory generation.
* {{p|Suicune}}, being known as the Aurora Pokémon, is associated with the move '''{{m|Aurora Beam}}'''.
* {{p|Ditto}} has '''{{m|Transform}}''' as its only move and is most associated with it; however, {{p|Mew}} is also able to learn it.
* {{P|Unown}} can learn only '''{{m|Hidden Power}}'''; however, almost every other Pokémon can learn it via [[TM10]] in [[Generation II]] and beyond.
* Each of {{p|Rotom}}'s forms has its own signature move that cannot be carried over to any of its other forms. However, none of these five moves are exclusive to it.
* Although several Pokémon can learn it by TM, until Generation III only {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}} could learn '''{{m|Dig}}''' by level up.
* Until Generation III, {{p|Koffing}} and {{p|Weezing}} were the only Poison-type Pokémon capable of learning '''{{m|Smog}}'''. As of Generation IV, they are still the only Poison-types to learn the move naturally, and all other Poison-types must be bred the move to have it.
* Though many others can learn it through TM or breeding, {{p|Skarmory}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Steel Wing}}''' by leveling up.
** Also, this trait is shared with '''{{m|Volt Change}}''', which only {{p|Emonga}} can learn via level-up.
* Prior to [[Generation V]], {{p|Vigoroth}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Focus Punch}}''' by leveling up.
* {{p|Porygon-Z}} is the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Trick Room}}''' by leveling up, although that move can be learned via [[TM92]].
* Almost every Pokémon is able to learn '''{{m|Facade}}''' via [[TM42]]. However, {{p|Chimchar}} is the only one to learn it by leveling up prior to Generation V.
* Although only {{p|Hiyappu}} and {{p|Hiyakkie|its evolution}} are the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Boiling Water}}''' by leveling up, other Pokémon can learn it via [[TM55]].
** Also, {{p|Yanappu}} is currently the only Pokémon to learn '''{{m|Grass Knot}}''' by leveling up, other Pokémon can learn it via [[TM86]].
*'''[[Sacred Sword]]''' is not technically considered a signature move in the traditional sense because it is not involved in a sole evolutionary line, but it is uniquely learned by the [[musketeer quartet]].

== Trivia ==
* So far, {{p|Hitmonlee}} has had the most signature moves, with four. However, three of them were only temporarily Hitmonlee's signature moves, and now can be learned by other Pokémon. The other was also previously available to other Pokémon through [[TM]]s and [[Move Tutor]]s.
** However, as of Generation V the Pokémon who possess the most signature moves is {{p|Vespiquen}}, with three which all of them are associated with {{t|Bug|its typing}}.

Talk:Ash's Swellow

2010-12-03T06:39:07Z

KurowaSan: /* Swellows ability */

i think Ash's Swellow is male because of it voice if it was a female it look pettey {{unsigned|Lindsayoris15}}

:Eh?? Anyway, until it is stated in the anime, Swellow's gender is unverified. ~[[User:SaturnYoshi|'''$aturn''']][[User:SaturnYoshi|'''¥oshi''']] [[User talk:SaturnYoshi|THE VOICES]] 01:16, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

::Swellow doesn't have gender differences, so appearance wouldn't mean squat anyway when it comes to gender. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:08, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

== Swellows ability ==

Well, since we can say Croagunk has Anticipation, i think we can assume that Swellow has Guts. And no, this is not one of those "it only has one ability" things, i have a reason. Thunder Armor. The non-Electric type Swellow would usually suffer from being shocked, but its power actually increased. [[User:Flyingtypefan|Flyingtypefan]] 18:32, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

that was more of a deus ex machina than an ability ([[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 18:55, 20 July 2010 (UTC))

:Hmm I was thinking. The Pokémon Trivia Quiz for AG147 was a question about what battle were they showing in a blurred and scrambled video. The answer was a battle between Ash's Pikachu VS Ash's Taillow in AG004 and the hints they gave were Static and Guts. (Notice that the Thunder Armor was in AG100). Does it suffice to confirm Guts as Swellow's ability? I think it might. [[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 03:09, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
::Just complementing what I said: The very anime told us Ash's Taillow's ability is Guts.[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 07:06, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Even though it seems plainly obvious throught that, I think the admins would be able to accept at least Guts (confirmed in dub only). I have added it to the article as it can be reverted if for some reason there is disagreement. [[User:Torngentleman2|MAMOSWINEPwnz! (TaleOfTheToaster)]] 19:50, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
:The confirmation I was talking about before, in the Pokémon Trivia Quiz, was in the Japanese version, not the dub. lol [[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 06:39, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

'''Crasher Wake''' (Japanese: '''マキシマム{{tt|仮面|かめん}}''' ''Maximum Mask''), otherwise known simply as '''Wake''' (Japanese: '''マキシ''' ''Maxi''), is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pastoria City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Pastoria Gym]]. He hands out the [[Badge#Fen Badge|Fen Badge]] to [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainers]] who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Water}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the games==
Crasher Wake uses {{type2|Water}} Pokémon in his battles. Trainers receive the {{Badge|Fen}}, {{TM|55|Brine}} and are able to use {{m|Defog}} outside of battle. Wake has a jovial, enthusiastic, and bombastic personality. Wake's strategy is nothing more than choosing moves that will make his battles more fun, and encourages everyone not to take battles too seriously, and to remember they're supposed to be fun. Crasher Wake uses the prize money he gets from competitive Pokémon battles to help the unfortunate. Crasher Wake has his Pokémon use {{m|Defog}} to keep the weather of Pastoria City clear.

He later appears in the [[Battle Zone]], talking to the player's [[rival]], {{ga|Barry}}. The rival also mentions that Wake was born overseas. However, he speaks clearly, without any foreign accent. This may mean he is simply from another region, but this has little evidence.

In {{v|Platinum}}, he is first met when players try to enter [[Veilstone Gym]]. In Pastoria City, he sings his own theme song, and the {{ga|Barry|rival}} wants him to be his mentor. Wake also acts when a Galactic Bomb goes off at the [[Great Marsh]]. On [[Stark Mountain]], he mentions that he'll be entering a tournament. Wake can also be battled again, like the other Sinnoh Gym Leaders, at the [[Battleground]]. His wrestling matches will occasionally be shown on the TV as part of the {{DL|Jubilife TV|Pokémon Variety Hour}}, which he always wins.

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, he appears in the [[Celadon Department Store]] to give the player some Sinnoh {{pkmn2|starter}} accessories. He can be found again later, on {{rt|47|Johto}}.

*Before battle
:''"Welcome! I don't get challenged very often! The glory you are now beholding is the Pastoria Gym Leader! That's right, I'm Crasher Wake! My Pokémon were toughened up by stormy white waters! They'll take everything you can throw at them and then pull you under! Victory will be ours! Come on, let's get it done!"''

*After sending out last Pokémon:
:''"Hey! That there! That was a good move!"''

*During battle
:''"This is where it gets exciting!"''

*When defeated
:''"Hunwah! It's gone and ended! How will I say... I want more! I wanted to battle a lot more!"''

*After being defeated
:''"It seems the undertow pulled me under... But I had a great time battling with you! You've earned this!"''

:''"The styles of battling and winning are as widely varied as Trainers are. Do you want to know how I battle? I battle so I can say I had fun at the end, whether I win or lose!"''

*The theme song: 
:''"The ring is my roiling sea. ♪'' 
:''The towering waves shaped me.''

You are that mask-fanatic Trainer I saw at the Celadon Dept. Store! I heard about the great waterfall near Cianwood and decided to come see it. This waterfall is awesome! No human or Pokémon can survive without water, yet the same water can sometimes cause great suffering. You must be a Trainer from this region, right? I hope you'll become a Trainer with the qualities of water--strong, tough to beat, yet refreshing. Good luck, mask-fanatic <player>!"''

==In the manga==
===[[Pokémon Adventures]]===
[[File:Maylene and Wake manga.png|thumb|right| Crasher Wake with his Floatzel and Maylene with her Riolu]]
Crasher Wake is introduced in ''[[PS364|VS. Skorupi]]''. {{adv|Platinum}} begins to battle him for the {{badge|Fen}} in ''[[PS365|VS. Carnivine]]''; their battle concludes in ''[[PS366|VS. Floatzel]]'', during which [[Platinum's Empoleon]] is able to defeat his Floatzel, only to lose to Quagsire. Afterwards, the [[Wig|Torterra]] she borrowed from {{Adv|Diamond}} defeats the second Pokémon with its {{m|Giga Drain}} when Wake concluded Platinum drowned, only to rise back up from the other side and counterattack. Afterwards, he is impressed by Platinum's adaptability and awards her the [[Fen Badge]].

Later, he reappears in [[Lake Valor]] to save [[Rad Rickshaw]] and {{adv|Pearl}} after the Galactic Bomb's explosion dried the lake, and [[Saturn]] defeated the latter. He then had his {{p|Quagsire}} and {{p|Floatzel}} to refill the lake using {{m|Rain Dance}}. Soon, after the boy recovers, Wake coaches him to catch a Floatzel much like his own (after noting that he wouldn't give him ''his''), but when he proves unable, instead tells Pearl to try his luck with the weaker {{p|Buizel}}, which he succeeds in. However, having grown intensely distrustful of humans after the incident, it turned out very disobedient, prone to often attack its owner rather than fight for him.

Like in the games, he pays for the facilities and maintenance of [[Pastoria City]] with the prize money he earns.

He makes a brief cameo in ''[[DPA07|Dialga's Secret Keys]]'', where he is defeated by Hareta. In ''[[DPA11|The Legendary Pokémon, Captured]]'' Wake and other Gym leaders appear at Lake Valor saying they will take care of things there and that he should worry about protecting the legendary Pokémon. He appears in ''[[DPA12|A Battle Of Wills]]'' as Byron comes to, he asks Wake what's going on to find that Hareta is battling Saturn. In ''[[DPA13|The Battle Rages On]]'' Wake is amazed by the size of the wave made by [[Hareta's Piplup]].

==Trivia==
* His Japanese Leader title is {{tt|ウォーター　ストリーム　マスクマン|Water Stream Maskman}}.
* Crasher Wake's use of his prize money to help the disadvantaged is a common cliché in tales of fictional luchadores, inspired by the real-life luchador {{wp|Fray Tormenta}}.
* Crasher Wake is a {{type2|Water}} trainer with a {{wp|Wrestling|pastime involving fighting}}, in comparison with [[Brawly]], a {{type2|Fighting}} trainer with a {{wp|Surfing|pastime involving water}}.
* All of Wake's Pokémon are ones that have [[gender differences]] except {{p|Sharpedo}}.
* Despite the game claiming that he uses {{m|Defog}} for Pastoria City, none of the Pokémon he uses in battle can learn it. Though it is possible he has a Pokémon capable of using it he doesn't use in battle, he would not be the only Gym Leader to do so if this was the case, as Fantina has a Drifblim she only uses in contests and not battles.
* With the release of Pokémon Platinum, the order of three Gym battles in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are now shifted: instead of being fourth, Crasher Wake is now fifth in the line-up. Had {{Ash}} fought [[Fantina]] previous to [[Maylene]], he would have inadvertently gone out of order compared to the D/P line-up, but in order for the Platinum line-up. Ash battled the three shifted Gym Leaders in the order designated by D/P, as Platinum was not released until after Ash fought Crasher Wake, but before Fantina.
* Crasher Wake is repeatedly referred to in in-game dialog by characters as "Wake, I mean Crasher Wake". This is a jab at the games' inability to hold his full name during battle (where he is identified as "Leader Wake"), and is also present in the Japanese version (where he is called マキシ ''Maxi'' instead).

KurowaSan: /* Photon Blaster */ new section

The only Pokémon who can use this move never receives STAB from it? --[[User talk:Venomoth|☯ ]][[User:Venomoth|*Ɣℯ№ӎօṫհ*]][[User talk:Venomoth| ☯]] 22:47, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
:It would appear so --[[User:Joeshie|+ Joeshie +]] ''([[User talk:Joeshie|is Mæ!]])'' 22:50, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
::Not that it would be impossible to get this move to be a STAB. You'd need to sketch it to a Smeargle, and then use it. Then it would gain stab from Smeargle as long as Smeargle’s type is still normal and not affected by a type changing move like Conversion and that the Smeargle does not hold a Cassette. The Smeargle could of course hold a Cassette, but then the added step of changing Smeargle's type to match the Cassette somehow comes into affect as well as having the move Techno Buster sketched. Anyway you do it, there is a way of getting it as a STAB move, a convoluted way at that.--[[User:QX Deoxys|QX Deoxys]] 06:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Where did anything like this got translated from? O_o The attack description just says "Releases light bullets at the opponent. The type changes according to the held Cassette." It doesn't even mention photon (光子 or フォトン) anywhere.[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 23:23, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

:'''Jessie:''' Prepare for trouble from up on the ridge!
:'''James:''' And make it double, 'cause we've raided the fridge!

== Dragonite ==

shouldn't there be a page for his Dragonite.? After all it has appeared for most of the episode, helped {{Ash}} and co., and also battled the Red gyrados?? not to mention it's his main battler.
[[User:RovingTrainer|RovingTrainer]]

==Not a Gym Leader?==
Lance is in the Gym leader category, but on his edit page there is no place to remove the Gym Leader Category tag, so I couldn't remove it. Lance is not a gym leader, so I'm not sure why he's been put in that category. [[User:Jacobe|Jacobe]] 20:03, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
:I fixed it. It was in [[Template:Elite Four of Kanto|the template]]. --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User Talk:Theryguy512|512]]''' 20:10, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

== Clair's and Lance's names ==

Could it be possible that Clair's and Lance's are related to the word clairvoyance? If you take the L out of Lance, the two have their names in clairvoyance. I know clairvoyance would be more related to psychic than dragon, but dragons are mystical creatures and clairvoyance is a mystical ability.

I'm waiting for a third Dragon trainer called Voy (or something like that) to show up if this is true.

== Moving it ==

We're not gonna. {{TR|Lance}} will obviously get a name change in English like Charon did. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 22:15, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

== Salamence (HG/SS Team) ==

His Salamence is holding a Lum Berry. I'd add it to the page, but pretty much all of the HG/SS-related pages are locked right now, so... {{unsigned|Leo058}}

Why is his Dragonite a single Pokémon? Why not make it like Steven's? Maybe I'd understand it if it was his only Pokémon, but still, it's pretty weird. {{color|00DD00|--[[User:Bulbafan|Bulbafan]] 23:50, 28 September 2009 (UTC)}}

What does it mean with "illegal Pokemon", since when are there pokemon which are illegal to own? [[User:OMG|OMG]] 06:10, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
:It isn't that they are illegal to own, it's that they are impossible to obtain without the use of a cheating device - {{p|Aerodactyl}} can't learn {{m|Rock Slide}} in generation II and {{p|Dragonite}} can't learn {{m|Barrier}} in generation I, yet his Pokémon have those moves. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 06:20, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

'''Ash Ketchum''' (Japanese: '''サトシ''' ''Satoshi'') is the main character of both the [[Pokémon anime]] and the ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]'' manga, and is believed to be based on the {{ga|Red|protagonist}} of the [[Generation I| first generation]] Pokémon games. He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean "wisdom" or "reason" (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, "[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]]."

{{spoilers}}

==In the anime==
===Character===
[[File:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]
Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.
[[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|200px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]
However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.

Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.

[[File:Ash AG.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]
Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.
[[File:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]
Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.

In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of "best friend" is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.

He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.
[[File:SatoshiDP.png|thumb|right|200px|Ash in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}]]
Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be "The Chosen One" - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.
[[File:AshWallace.png|thumb|left|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]
He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.

During his battles in the [[Suzuran Conference]], he managed to advance to the Top 4, during which time he defeated his long-time Sinnoh rival [[Paul]], and fought against [[Takuto]], becoming the only Trainer to defeat his {{p|Darkrai}}. Though he lost later on in the battle, he seems to be okay with losing, as he has become closer to his Pokémon than ever before.

Ash is now currently in his venture to [[Isshu]], bringing along only his Pikachu as he did in Hoenn.

===Family===
[[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]
Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.

His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, and that he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.

Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.
 

===Pokémon===
As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care. Ash's battle style is generally spontaneous and fairly unorthodox, and his Pokémon often reflect these traits.

==In the manga==
===In the Ash and Pikachu manga===
Ash is a starring character in [[Ash and Pikachu]], a manga series based on the [[Johto]] saga of the Pokémon anime.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[File:Ash Ketchum Electric Tale.png|thumb|right|Ash in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga]]
Ash Ketchum is a starring character in [[Electric Tale of Pikachu|The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], a manga series based on the anime. Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].

While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash appears to be indifferent to love and romance, the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree.

Ash's appearance differs in the manga as well. He wears a red jacket, much like {{ga|Red}}'s, instead of the blue he wears in the anime. Also, for the duration of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]], he wears a different hat, which is solid red with a "PM" on the front. Beginning in ''[[ET05|The Human Race and the Pokémon Race]]'', his hat is changed to match the one he wears in the anime.

Ash owns many of the same Pokémon as in the anime, with a few exceptions: he captures a {{AP|Fearow}} and an {{p|Oddish}}. He also captures a {{p|Mankey}}, which he trades to a shady salesman for a map of [[Mt. Moon]], and a giant {{p|Slowpoke}}, which he trades to [[Gary Oak]].

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
[[File:Ash and Brock MPJ.jpg|thumb|right|Ash and Brock in Magical Pokémon Journey]]
Ash, along with {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}}, make cameo appearances in bonus chapters of the [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] manga. In the bonus chapters, Ash and co. have mistakenly wandered into the world Magical Pokémon Journey is set in. The bonus chapters chronicle their attempts to return to their own world (of the {{pkmn|anime}}) and their encounters with various aspects of the Magical Pokémon Journey canon which differ from the anime's canon (such as the use of [[Poké Ball]]s).

==Trivia==
===Pokémon===
[[File:Ash catches a Pokemon.png|thumb|250px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]
* Ash typically catches similar teams in each region he travels through.
** Ash's teams often feature the starter Pokémon of each region. In both the [[Timeline of events in the anime#Kanto|Kanto]] and [[Timeline of events in the anime#Johto|Johto]] story arcs, Ash managed to capture all three of the starter Pokémon for both regions.
** Up until the {{series|Best Wishes}}, he had caught each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita}}, {{AP|Treecko}} and {{AP|Turtwig}}.
** He also caught the three {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] whose English names begin with a 'C' and whose Japanese names begin with a 'ヒ' ''hi'': {{AP|Charmander}} (''Hitokage''), {{AP|Cyndaquil}} (''Hinoarashi''), and {{AP|Chimchar}} (''Hikozaru'').
** He always catches each region's local bird-like Pokémon: {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh, and {{AP|Mamepato}} in Isshu. Thus far, Ash has evolved each species to its final form, except for {{AP|Mamepato}}, which was only captured recently.
** Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}). None of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.
** He has captured, befriended, used, or otherwise had under his command at least one Pokémon of every type except for {{type2|Dark}} and {{type2|Steel}}.
* As of the thirteenth movie, Ash has encountered every legendary Pokémon from the first four generations at least once.
* Ash has only caught Pokémon when he does not have a full party of six with one exception: his capture of {{AP|Krabby}}.
* Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and {{AP|Aipom}}. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.
* Ash has several Pokémon in common with {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.

===Challenge/Gym related===
* In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.
* In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case.
* Ash battled four legendary Pokémon. He has defeated two of these.
* Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.
* The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.

===Miscellaneous===
[[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]
* The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.
* Ash has crossdressed three times. The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.
** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.
* Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the "red ash", "green ash", and "blue ash", for the first three games, but also the "indigo ash", for the [[Indigo Plateau]].
* [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.
* When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary "Adventures in Voice Acting", she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time. This name would later be given to a {{an|Casey|recurring character from Johto}}.
* In Ash's Isshu design, his eye irises are larger to match most other people in the anime, like artwork of Red from Generation III.
** Besides clothing, this is Ash's first physical change since his debut in EP001.

KurowaSan: /* Champion? */ new section

So, why isn't there anything here? You could just put the basic stuff that is known about N, and a good picture, lock it, and that would make sure it's not flooded with speculation. I just feel like it seems very odd to have [[Bel]] and [[Cheren]] but not N. --[[User:ArcLumin|ArcLumin]] 23:12, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
:[[User:Umeko/N|We have an article on him with known information]]. But not enough for a main space article. --[[User:PsychicRider|'''Psy''']][[User talk:PsychicRider|'''ライダー''']]''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|'''☮''']]'' 23:15, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
Ah. Hadn't noticed it, it doesn't come up very high on a site search. --[[User:ArcLumin|ArcLumin]] 23:16, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
:BP is having users create BW articles in their userspaces before being moved into the mainspace, which may explain that. --[[User:PsychicRider|'''Psy''']][[User talk:PsychicRider|'''ライダー''']]''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|'''☮''']]'' 23:22, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
::Makes sense. Although there may be conflicting articles when BW gets released. Oh well, it's not a big deal. --[[User:ArcLumin|ArcLumin]] 23:26, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

==Missing Battle==
You're missing a battle between Raimon City and the final match. I fought him in the Magnetic Cave and he used a team including Giar and Denchura's pre-evo. Wish I could give you more but that's what I remember. --[[User:The Great Butler|The Great Butler]] 02:59, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

== Legendaries ==

-does a double take at that- um, shouldn't there be some trivia on his article about him being the only trainer not part of some battle facility to use Legendary Pokémon against the player or something?--[[User:Darknesslover5000|Darknesslover5000]] 05:38, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
:Well there is [[Greevil]]..but that doesn't count now does it? [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 05:42, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

== To settle it once and for all! ==
Like --The Great Butler said, there is another missing battle with N which takes place at route 6, in the cave. His team is: [[Gantoru]] lv. 28, [[Bachuru]] lv. 28, [[Giaru]] lv. 28 and [[Tesshido]] lv. 28. Here is a video of the battle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehV6YGzcPJc&feature=related. Now could Someone PLEASE add this to the article? [[User:TheBlackPokemonMaster]]
:You have to understand that we need not only the Pokemon he uses, but their entire movesets, too. We'll get to it when we get to it. I'm almost there in my game, so I'll do it then if someone doesn't beat me to it. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 18:45, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

== Champion? ==

It's never said in the game if he ever won this title. It seems he only battled Adeku and did not battle the Elite Four before and that he didn't want to be a Champion, as he wanted to make every trainer release their Pokémon after his victory over Adeku. But he did defeat all of Adeku's team and them claimed to be way stronger than the champion. Also, it isn't show the moment of registration of your team into the Hall of Fame, but the PC does register the team of your first time clearing the Pokémon League... So I have this doubt about his status when you last meet N.[[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 08:19, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Professor Oak's Pokémon Lecture

2010-10-03T07:14:38Z

KurowaSan:

[[File:Oaks lecture DP.png|thumb|300px|Diamond & Pearl logo]]
'''Professor Oak's lecture''', also named '''Professor Oak's Big Encyclopedia''' (Japanese: '''オーキド博士のポケモン大検定''') in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} and '''Professor Oak's Live Caster''' (Japanese: '''オーキド博士のポケモンライブキャスター''') in the {{series|Best Wishes}}, is a segment featured at the end of {{pkmn|anime}} episodes in Japan.

Generally, the lecture will start with [[Professor Oak]] using the reels of a {{wp|slot machine}} to show the silhouette of a [[Pokémon]]. The display on his computer will switch to show the image of the Pokémon, surrounded by some general information. He will then show some clips of the Pokémon in the anime as he discusses it. After this, he will show a live example of the Pokémon in [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|his laboratory]]. Frequently, the Pokémon will attack or hurt him shortly after. The lecture sometimes closes with Professor Oak reciting a [[Pokémon senryū]].

'''Pokémon senryū''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン川柳''') are {{wp|haiku}}-like poems about Pokémon or Pokémon-related themes. Composing them is a hobby of [[Professor Oak]] and it's usually used to close his lectures in the anime.

{{wp|Senryū}} are generally light-hearted or humorous, and they consist of three lines with 17 or fewer {{wp|morae}}. Unlike haiku, senryū do not require a {{wp|kigo}} (season word). The art form was created in the {{wp|Edo era}} of real-world Japan by Senryū Karai (柄井川柳, 1718-1790).

There are also some special lectures, such as those which will promote an upcoming {{pkmn|movie}} or discuss one of the characters. For example, in [[DP075]], the Pokémon senryū was replaced by ''Pikachu's Movie Memory'', as part of a countdown to ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

The segment was replaced by the [[Pokémon Trivia Quiz]] beginning with [[AG105]] until it returned with the beginning of the Diamond & Pearl series.

The segment has never been used in the dub, though footage from the lecture of {{p|Alakazam}} was used to introduce the VHS release of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
