KyraMara: /* Alternate Coloration */

== Alternate Coloration ==

Since it seems like it's been debated, rather than reverting an edit I'd prefer it discussed here. Since being made of crystal isn't the official alternate colour of Onix, I don't think it should be listed. Also, alternate coloration was not officially introduced yet ([[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Gold/Silver]] wasn't released, and the concept wasn't formally introduced into the anime until [[EP154]]. Could a compromise be made by putting a link in the 'see also' section? ←{'''[[User:Berrymaster|Berrymaster]]|[[User_talk:Berrymaster|Talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Berrymaster|Contrib]]'''}→ 01:31, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Don't forget that a crystal Onix is alternate '''materialization'''--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 01:33, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
:Well we say the [[Pink Butterfree]] is an alternate colored Pokémon, matter of fact the first to appear in the anime, yet it's not what the shiny version looks like. And that was way before the Crystal Onix. The meaning of alternate coloration doesn't mean it's "Shiny". It just simply means it's a different color then the norm of its species. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 01:34, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
::The Pink Butterfree appeared in the anime before Shiny Pokémon had even been invented, and they just made the Butterfree pink to show that it was female. Still, I think it should still be on the list of Shiny Pokémon. But maybe the Crystal Onix should be in a sub-category called "Other Special Pokémon" or something like that. [[User:Taromon777|Taromon777]] 09:40, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
::: Taromon777 - This fact is not valid to the argument you are trying to make about the pink Butterfree for a couple of reasons, when Ash releases his Butterfree to travel with the Pink Butterfree there is only one Pink Butterfree there, all the other Butterfree, both male and female look the same. I feel like the existence of the Pink Butterfree is actually explained in the Orange Islands Episode "In the Pink" where it is revealed that Pinkin Berries affect the coloring of the Pokémon that eat them. Personally, I believe that the Pink Butterfree at some point visited the Orange Islands and ate Pinkin Berries. -- [[User:KyraMara|KyraMara]] ([[User talk:KyraMara|talk]]) 18:49, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

== Anime's take on the "Diamond Onix" Pokédex entry? ==
Could this have been a reference to the "Onix's body becomes more like diamond than rock if it lives for long enough" Pokédex entry from one of the early games? Can't remember which off the top of my head, but I know one of the earlier games (1st-generation) had an entry like that.

And though I'm sure it was a coincidence (I doubt the anime people knew exact details of Steelix and its weaknesses that far ahead of time), the "more resistant to water, but weaker against fire" thing also makes me think of the change from Rock to Steel that comes when an Onix evolves into Steelix... --[[User:FnrrfYgmSchnish|FnrrfYgmSchnish]] ([[User talk:FnrrfYgmSchnish|talk]]) 06:02, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Many of the recurring wild Pokémon don't even have their own pages, so why should some Pokémon of the day which could quiet easily be merged with existing pages like many others already are be any different.

Onix and Butterfree are self explanatory, and Puka is a possible reference to the surfing Pikachu. That, along with having major roles in the episodes they appeared in. As for why it's only those that appeared in the original series that get articles, that's because the anime never does these things anymore. They've never had a Pokemon show up that was uniquely different to its own species. The Pokemon you've listed aren't that different from any other of their species.

The only unique factor is its physical attribute of being made of crystal, so it can be fully explained on the different coloration page like the others. I think Puka can still be amalgamated with Victor's page, as much of the information across the two pages is the same and the more specific info for Puka can be in the infobox on Victor's page.

{{indent}}Pardescan, the Crystal Onix doesn't fall under the recurring Pokemon rule as it is '''not''' a recurring Pokemon. It falls under rule 7, because it is a character of the day. That's why it's notable.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:10, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

== Deletion ==

I feel this page should stay because it is not like the normal Onix which is weak against water and strong against fire. The Crystal Onix, on the other hand, is almost resistant to water and is weak against fire. So it deserves a separate page and not be included as a part of the Onix page.
--[[User:Gryffinbird914|Gryffinbird914]] ([[User talk:Gryffinbird914|talk]]) 06:01, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

== Notes about all these points: ==

1) Alternate coloration does not mean the Pokémon is Shiny and if you recall, a major aspect of the entire Orange Islands story arc, where this episode takes place is the fact that because of the tropical climate of the islands the Pokémon have different patterns and colorations from the Kanto Pokémon. This fact is later expanded upon and exemplified with the introduction of Region specific Pokémon.

2) The COD Project is specific for characters, not Pokemon that appear one time in the anime. For this reason the characters of Marissa and her older brother should be included in that project if they are not already however the Crystal Onix does not qualify.

3) Within Project Anime there should be at least a section about the Crystal Onix as it is an aspect of the anime.

4) During the episode 'In the Pink' which occurs directly after 'The Crystal Onix' it was made obvious that outside factors such as food can influence a Pokémon's appearance.

5) Shown in 'Snowman Snorlax' it is once again demonstrated that climate can affect a Pokémon's appearance.

6) In the episode 'All that Glitters is not Gold' Ash encounters a Sudowoodo that was turned to gold during a science experiment where its trainer was attempting to make it immune to water attacks.

In all, I believe that while the Crystal Onix does not completely qualify for its own page, the information about it should be preserved. My personal recommendation would be to create a new section within the page that is dedicated to the episode "The Crystal Onix" that focuses on the Pokémon.

2) The COD Project is specific for characters, not Pokemon that appear one time in the anime. For this reason the characters of Marissa and her older brother should be included in that project if they are not already however the Crystal Onix does not qualify.

3) Within Project Anime there should be at least a section about the Crystal Onix as it is an aspect of the anime.

4) During the episode 'In the Pink' which occurs directly after 'The Crystal Onix' it was made obvious that outside factors such as food can influence a Pokémon's appearance.

5) Shown in 'Snowman Snorlax' it is once again demonstrated that climate can affect a Pokémon's appearance.

6) In the episode 'All that Glitters is not Gold' Ash encounters a Sudowoodo that was turned to gold during a science experiment where its trainer was attempting to make it immune to water attacks.

In all, I believe that while the Crystal Onix does not completely qualify for its own page, the information about it should be preserved. My personal recommendation would be to create a new section within the page that is dedicated to the episode "The Crystal Onix" that focuses on the Pokémon.

KyraMara: /* Notes about all these points: */ new section

== Alternate Coloration ==

Since it seems like it's been debated, rather than reverting an edit I'd prefer it discussed here. Since being made of crystal isn't the official alternate colour of Onix, I don't think it should be listed. Also, alternate coloration was not officially introduced yet ([[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Gold/Silver]] wasn't released, and the concept wasn't formally introduced into the anime until [[EP154]]. Could a compromise be made by putting a link in the 'see also' section? ←{'''[[User:Berrymaster|Berrymaster]]|[[User_talk:Berrymaster|Talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Berrymaster|Contrib]]'''}→ 01:31, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

You make a good point, but I accept the revert--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 01:32, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Don't forget that a crystal Onix is alternate '''materialization'''--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 01:33, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
:Well we say the [[Pink Butterfree]] is an alternate colored Pokémon, matter of fact the first to appear in the anime, yet it's not what the shiny version looks like. And that was way before the Crystal Onix. The meaning of alternate coloration doesn't mean it's "Shiny". It just simply means it's a different color then the norm of its species. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 01:34, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
::The Pink Butterfree appeared in the anime before Shiny Pokémon had even been invented, and they just made the Butterfree pink to show that it was female. Still, I think it should still be on the list of Shiny Pokémon. But maybe the Crystal Onix should be in a sub-category called "Other Special Pokémon" or something like that.

== Typing ==

Crystal Onix is still Rock/Ground typing isn't it? It was able to repel and even live in water, which rock and ground type cannot do.--[[User:Darknesslover5000|Darknesslover5000]] 05:00, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

:Concerning the typing of the Crystal Onix... I realize that fan-created sites are not canon, but can it be mentioned as trivia that on '''Global PokedeX Plus''' the Crystal Onix is a 'Novelty' Pokemon whose type is Rock/Ice? [[User:ILOVETOGETIC|I♥Togetic]] 19:11, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

== Anime's take on the "Diamond Onix" Pokédex entry? ==
Could this have been a reference to the "Onix's body becomes more like diamond than rock if it lives for long enough" Pokédex entry from one of the early games? Can't remember which off the top of my head, but I know one of the earlier games (1st-generation) had an entry like that.

And though I'm sure it was a coincidence (I doubt the anime people knew exact details of Steelix and its weaknesses that far ahead of time), the "more resistant to water, but weaker against fire" thing also makes me think of the change from Rock to Steel that comes when an Onix evolves into Steelix... --[[User:FnrrfYgmSchnish|FnrrfYgmSchnish]] ([[User talk:FnrrfYgmSchnish|talk]]) 06:02, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
: "As it grows, the stone portions of its body harden to become similar to a diamond, but colored black." ~ [[Onix_(Pokémon)#Pokédex_entries_3|Pokémon Red and Blue]] It could be a possible reference, though I am not sure we could make use of this without it becoming speculation. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 06:26, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

:::::::::I stand by my earlier comment on all four examples provided. I did see [[Meowzie]]'s page, but that character is very important to Meowth's backstory plus she was featured in the manga as well, though most importantly her Trainer couldn't be identified.
:::::::::I need to ask why many of these so called Pokémon of the day are only from the original series, surely there would be other "notable examples", [[Pietra]]'s surfing Rhydon in [[EP204]], the Clamperl with a blue pearl in [[AG093]], the Evil Togepi in [[DP145]] or even Larvitar's mother Tyranitar. Many of the recurring wild Pokémon don't even have their own pages, so why should some Pokémon of the day which could quiet easily be merged with existing pages like many others already are be any different. Also Pershie who I've been trying to get its own page for a while has actually been featured in several episodes.[[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 10:19, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
::::::::::And the Pink Butterfree isn't important to Ash's Butterfree? Meowzie has an article because it is an important character [of the day], not because its trainer couldn't be identified.
::::::::::Apart from Orville, all three Pokemon you've listed have something distinct that makes them different from other Pokemon of their species. Onix and Butterfree are self explanatory, and Puka is a possible reference to the surfing Pikachu. That, along with having major roles in the episodes they appeared in. As for why it's only those that appeared in the original series that get articles, that's because the anime never does these things anymore. They've never had a Pokemon show up that was uniquely different to its own species. The Pokemon you've listed aren't that different from any other of their species. As for Pershie, I've already explained to you '''''thrice''''' why that's not notable, Pershie didn't do anything notable.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:05, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
:::::::::::The Crystal Onix was important to the plot of the episode, but was simply battled, and the underdeveloped nature of the page reflects this. All of which is already explained in the characters and location page related to that episode. I just noticed an underdeveloped befriended section on [[Mateo]]'s page, that's where all the info can go. The only unique factor is its physical attribute of being made of crystal, so it can be fully explained on the different coloration page like the others. I think Puka can still be amalgamated with Victor's page, as much of the information across the two pages is the same and the more specific info for Puka can be in the infobox on Victor's page.
:::::::::: I'll agree with Pink Butterfree remaining separate given that it has multiple references across manga and cross-canons.
::::::::::How about Larvitar's mother? Major backstory, key to an arc and an episode plot, plus its feature in the Spurt opening? Should it be featured on Ash's Larvitar's page to save duplication of information or its own?
:::::::::: And for Pershie … since when does a recurring character of any sort not have its own page? It may not have had a backstory revealed, but it served more of a running gag causing trouble across its appearances [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 12:34, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
:::::::::::It's still a character of the day, as is Puka. Larvitar's mother, you can try make a page in the userspace as it is an important character. For Pershie, please refer to the notability requirements. It needs to have a significant impact on the plot. Simply appearing (in more than three episodes) does not make it notable.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:56, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
::::::::::::This page should still be deleted. In light of the changes to the [[Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime]], where many of the not-so notable examples were unable to get a page of their own and are now simply a sub-section on the respective Pokémon species page, the Crystal Onix should go the same way. The List of alternately colored Pokémon in the anime should be restructured like the recurring wild Pokémon in the anime page as well. Also, Mateo's page now contains a better description of Crystal Onix. [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 00:52, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Now I haven't watched that many anime episodes (since I haven't been into Pokemon for that long) so I don't exactly know how important my 2¢ will be, but here's my take anyway. Crystal Onix is still important to the plot of the episode even if it only appeared in this episode. Appearing in only one episode should not be a reason to believe this is not notable, especially as said before it plays a major role in the plot of the episode. Notability rule #7 says [[Bulbapedia:Manual of style/Anime#Notability requirements|"''an exception may be made if the Pokémon itself was a character of the day.''"]] Crystal Onix imo is a character of the day so I'd say this article should stay. Well, that's my opinion anyway. [[User:Supatoad64|SupaToad64]] ([[User talk:Supatoad64|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Supatoad64|contributions]]) 03:01, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

{{indent}}Pardescan, the Crystal Onix doesn't fall under the recurring Pokemon rule as it is '''not''' a recurring Pokemon. It falls under rule 7, because it is a character of the day. That's why it's notable.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:10, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
: I don't think the article necessarily needs a deletion. It is a notable Pokémon on its own enough to remain as a stand-alone page. → [[User:Rockapheller|'''R'''ockap]][[User_talk:Rockapheller|heller]] 14:38, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

== Deletion ==

I feel this page should stay because it is not like the normal Onix which is weak against water and strong against fire. The Crystal Onix, on the other hand, is almost resistant to water and is weak against fire. So it deserves a separate page and not be included as a part of the Onix page.

'''Ten Carat Hill''' (Japanese: '''テンカラットヒル''' ''Ten Carat Hill'') is a location on [[Melemele Island]] in [[Alola]] accessed via {{rt|1|Alola}}, located west of the {{DL|Alola Route 1|Pokémon Research Lab}}. It requires [[Poké Ride|Tauros Charge]] to access initially, although it can be accessed later with only [[Poké Ride|Charizard Glide]].

An isolated area of Ten Carat Hill can be accessed from [[Melemele Sea]] using [[Poké Ride|Sharpedo Jet]]. An isolated part of Ten Carat Hill: Farthest Hollow can be accessed from the east side of Ten Carat Hill's cave; in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] only, [[Poké Ride|Machamp Shove]] is required to do this.

In the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version]], a man at the northwest end of [[Hau'oli City]] by the Pokémon Center will guide the player here. He will also guide the player back to the city from the hill. In the demo, the area comprises the cave and the Farthest Hollow, as well as an open area which does not appear in the full game.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ten Carat Hill anime.png|thumb|250px|Ten Carat Hill in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Ten Carat Hill first appeared in ''[[SM047|A Masked Warning!]]'', in which {{Ash}} was {{m|teleport}}ed there by [[Nebby]] while thinking about {{an|Gladion}}. There, he found Gladion training with his {{p|Type: Null}}. The two had a talk about {{an|Lillie}}'s past and the [[Ultra Beast]]s, after which they had a battle between Type: Null and {{AP|Lycanroc}}, which ended in Gladion's victory.

The area reappeared in ''[[SM048|Night of a Thousand Poses!]]'', when Lillie was thinking about Gladion.

Walkthrough:Pokémon Platinum/Part 1

2018-02-21T00:07:15Z

KyraMara: Temporary fix to the distortion of the sign under Twinleaf Town. I'm looking for a more permanent solution

==Starting the game==

[[File:Player Bedroom DPPt.png|thumb|left|150px|The player's room]]
[[File:Diamond Pearl Rowan.png|thumb|right|100px|Professor Rowan]]
The game loads with [[Giratina]] being shown on the bottom title screen. Press Start, A, or tap the screen to go to the main menu, then start a new game. You will be greeted by [[Professor Rowan]], who will ask if you need advice about playing the game.

Afterward, Rowan will ask you about yourself. Here, choose your gender, name, and the name of {{ga|Barry|your rival}}. None of these can be changed later on, so be sure you're happy with each choice before continuing to the next one.

After choosing your rival's name, you will be brought to your house in [[Twinleaf Town]].
{{-}}
==Twinleaf Town==
[[File:Twinleaf Town Pt.png|right|thumb|200px|Twinleaf Town]]
{{sign|DPcitymap|header}}
{{sign|DPcitymap|map| Twinleaf Town }}
{{sign|DPcitymap|title| Twinleaf Town }}
{{sign|DPcitymap| Fresh and Free! }}
{{sign|DPcitymap|footer}}
The game starts with you at the TV, watching the tail end of a show featuring [[Professor Rowan]]. As you try to move, you will be greeted by your [[rival]], who will briefly be distracted by your [[PC]], and will then tell you to meet him outside as he dashes off. Follow him downstairs, where you'll have a short conversation with your [[Johanna|mom]]. Just before you leave, your mom will tell you to stay away from the [[tall grass]].

Twinleaf Town is cold, with patches of {{Weather|snow}} on the ground. As you explore the town, be sure to visit the house in the north-west corner of the town. Here, your rival will bump into you as you try to enter. He'll head back in immediately, however, because he forgot something. Head upstairs and your rival will ask you to meet him at {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}. Leave his house and head north. Soon, you'll find yourself on Route 201.

==Route 201==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 201 Pt.png|right|thumb|300px|Route 201]]
[[Lake Verity]] is to the west, while [[Sandgem Town]] is to the east. As you go north, you meet up with your rival for a chat. He suggests that the two of you go to [[Sandgem Town]] to get Pokémon from Professor Rowan. When you point out you shouldn't go into the tall grass, he naively suggests running through the tall grass so fast that wild Pokémon have no chance to jump out at you (running through tall grass actually increases the chance that you'll be attacked by a wild Pokémon). Just as he's about to enter the grass, an old man shouts at him to halt.

The man is Professor Rowan, and he is not happy! He tells you two not to go to tall grass, then quizzes you about your love for Pokémon; eventually {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} will appear, and the professor will ask you to pick your very first Pokémon.

{{p|Turtwig}} has high HP, Attack, and Defense, and its final evolution gains {{t|Ground}} as a secondary type; few moves are [[Damage#Super_effective|super effective]] or [[Damage#Not_very_effective|not very effective]] against this combination. Its Grass/Ground typing will be effective in more [[Gym]]s than Piplup, but in fewer than Chimchar.

{{p|Chimchar}} has high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed. Its second evolution gains the {{t|Fighting}} type, a combination that means its attacks will be very effective against the most Gyms out of the three choices, not to mention the Pokémon League. However, its very low Defense and Special Defense mean it will be vulnerable even to types it resists.

{{p|Piplup}} is similar to Turtwig; it has high Defense and Special Attack, and its final form gains {{t|Steel}} as the secondary type. This combination will resist many different move types, though {{t|Fire}}-type moves will become normally effective. Piplup will have a harder time with Gyms, but its wide range of resistances combined with its high Defense allow it to take quite the pounding.

Once you made your choice, in true [[Rival]] fashion, Barry will pick the one that has the type advantage over your choice. Rowan will point out that these Pokémon are inexperienced with the world and need you to help them grow before he and Lucas/Dawn return to Sandgem Town. Barry will then challenge you to an immediate battle. You don't have to win this battle, but winning awards [[Experience]] points for your new starter, as well as a small amount of spending money.

After the battle you will immediately go home.

==Twinleaf Town==
Back at home, your mom is happy that you and Barry met Professor Rowan, since he stopped you from being attacked by wild Pokémon. She then asks for you to thank him properly in Sandgem Town and gives you the ever-useful [[Running Shoes]].

==Lake Verity (first visit)==
[[File:Lake Verity Pt.png|right|thumb|200px]]
After arriving back on Route 201, you'll meet up with {{ga|Barry}} again. He reveals that he's also planning to go to [[Sandgem Town]], and he asks you to come with him to [[Lake Verity]] first to find and catch the rumored legendary Pokémon to show to Professor Rowan.

Once at Lake Verity you will see [[Cyrus]], the leader of [[Team Galactic]]. He boasts to the legendary Pokémon of the lake that he will one day take control of Time and Space, then leaves the scene. When Barry is ready to press forward, you will hear this {{p|Mesprit|legendary Pokémon}}, and he is ready to catch it only to realize that neither of you have any [[Poké Ball]]s to catch it with. Barry then recalls that Professor Rowan said to come to him if they needed anything, so Barry then departs for Sandgem Town. With nothing more to do here, follow him south and then east along Route 201.

==Route 201==
Once past Verity Lakefront, you are free to explore the tall grass, though you can't catch any wild Pokémon yet. Talk to the [[Poké Mart]] employee near the entrance to Sandgem Town to receive a free [[Potion]], then head east to reach the town.

==Sandgem Town==
[[File:Sandgem Town Pt.png|thumb|200px|Sandgem Town]]
Once you arrive, Lucas/Dawn are waiting to escort you inside Rowan's laboratory. Just as you're about to enter, Barry comes rushing out, commenting that Rowan is not as scary as he appears to be, before he dashes off. Once inside, the Professor takes a look at your Pokémon and approvingly allows you to keep it. Seeing the growing bond between you and your Pokémon, the Professor gives you a [[Pokédex]] and requests that you travel across Sinnoh and record data on the various Pokémon you meet.

Outside the lab, Rowan gives you {{TM|27|Return}}. Lucas/Dawn will show you around town, then suggest that you talk with your mom about what you've so quickly agreed to do. Before you go, you may want to head south of Sandgem to Route 219 and grab the Antidote waiting there, heal up your Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Center]], and maybe even buy some [[Poké Ball]]s in the [[Poké Mart]] by speaking to the cashier. As far as Pokémon to catch, {{p|Bidoof}} are very versatile and can learn 6 out of 8 of the [[Hidden Machine]]s that are necessary for navigating the whole of Sinnoh, while {{p|Starly}} are a solid addition to any team (though they will not be very useful in the first [[Gym]]).

Finally, head west out of Sandgem and use the ledges to return to Twinleaf.

==Twinleaf Town==
Enter your house, where your mom agrees that you should go on this adventure, and gives you a {{key|IV|Journal}} to record it. Barry's mother shows up looking for her son, and asks you to give him a {{key|IV|Parcel}}, suggesting that Barry is likely in Jubilife City by now.

Now, return to Sandgem.

When you first arrive here, you'll have a quick encounter with {{ga|Barry}} who will mention [[Seals]] and the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. A man on the left side of the path north to [[Route 210]] will give you the [[Pokétch]] app [[Pokétch|Pokémon History]].

Next to the [[Pokémon Center]] is the [[Pokémon News Press]]. One of the men inside asks the player each day to show him a different Pokémon the player has already seen or caught (because of this the Pokémon he wants to see is often simple to obtain), awarding Poké Balls if the request is granted. A player who accomplishes this task within 24 hours will be rewarded with three of any type of [[Poké Ball]], except for [[Master Ball]]s, {{ball|Premier}}s, {{ball|Cherish}}s, {{ball|Safari}}s, and {{ball|Park}}s. He will also award a {{DL|Exchangeable item|Heart Scale}} along with them.

[[File:Solaceon Town Day Care Center Pt.png|left|thumb|180px|Pokémon Day Care]]
If you travel east along the northern border of Solaceon Town, you will see three sets of ledges to jump down. Take the middle one, then jump down the next two and you will arrive at the house of the seal woman who will give you the [[Seal Case]], and her son, who will hand over an alphabet Seal for each corresponding {{p|Unown}} you show him (including ? and !).

Most notably in [[Solaceon Town]] is the [[Pokémon Day Care]] in the northwest corner of the town. You can deposit up to two Pokémon that you want to be trained by talking to the Day-Care Lady. It will cost {{PDollar}}100 as a starting fee and {{PDollar}}100 more for each level the Pokémon gains. The Pokémon deposited gain one [[Experience|exp. point]] per step you walk, however they won't grow to be as strong as Pokémon raised to an equivalent level solely through battling. When you deposit a Pokémon into the Day Care for the first time, a man will appear at the table inside. When spoken to, he will give you the [[Pokétch]] app [[Pokétch|Day Care Checker]]. This is where you can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] Pokémon by depositing two of the same [[Egg Group]].

When you're done in the Day Care, head back to the three ledges and take the final set of ledges down into the [[Solaceon Ruins]].

East of the town are the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. You will be able to catch all 28 forms of {{p|Unown}} here, and this is also the location of the HM for {{m|Defog}}. Right now, you will only be able to find 26 of these forms and by catching them, the [[Maniac Tunnel]] on {{rt|214|Sinnoh}} will expand. When you have collected all 26, you can travel through the Maniac Tunnel to access the hidden second floor where the last two Unown forms (? and !) are. Make sure to encounter at least one wild Unown since no Trainer uses an Unown and you need it to complete your Sinnoh Dex.

Twenty of the Unown can be found in the dead-end rooms, and since not all of them can be randomly found in the same room, you will have to do some exploring. The remaining six forms are located in all the main hallways, excluding the entrance, and only one form can be found in each hallway.

If you have trouble reading the inscription at the north end of the entrance hallway, it says: 
'''<sc>Top right''' 
'''Lower left''' 
'''Top right''' 
'''Top left''' 
'''Top left''' 
'''Lower left</sc>''' 
Follow the corresponding stairways to find a room with {{HM|05|Defog}}, the {{DL|Plate|Mind Plate}}, and the {{DL|Incense|Odd Incense}} (for producing a {{p|Mime Jr.}} egg when breeding a {{p|Mr. Mime}}). Once Defog is in your possession, your mission here should be complete. A {{evostone|Fire Stone}}, {{evostone|Water Stone}}, and {{evostone|Thunder Stone}} are hidden in the boulders in three of the dead end rooms.

Once you're done, return to the [[Lost Tower]] on {{rt|209|Sinnoh}}.

While the first two floors are easy to navigate, on the last three you will need HM05 to remove the thick fog. If you come here during the [[Time#Generation IV|night]], you can find wild {{p|Duskull}}.

Once you've left the Lost Tower, return north to Solaceon Town and heal up for the journey ahead, then go north to {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}.

Head into the left hand patch of grass and up the western muddy ramp, and continue north past the Twins and jump over the ledge. Head back south along the path between the two grassy areas, east along the hill and then north to find a woman looking out over a Honey Tree and the Cafe Cabin. Speak to her, and she'll hand over {{TM|51|Roost}}. Backtrack to the top of the path between the grass, and enter the [[Café Cabin]].

In the [[Café Cabin]], there are a number of Trainers to battle, and you can buy one bottle of [[Moomoo Milk]] (which restores a Pokémon's HP by 100 points) for {{PDollar}}500 or {{PDollar}}6000 for a case of 12. Since a group of [[Psyduck]] are blocking access to the northern section of Route 210, head east instead to {{rt|215|Sinnoh}} instead.

Route 215 is packed with Trainers and items, and the constant [[rain]]fall boosts the power of {{type|Water}} moves by 50% (and decreases the power of {{type|Fire}} moves by 50%), so this is a good place to train Water-type Pokémon. Bring a Pokémon that knows [[Cut]] - it will make travel significantly easier and will allow you to collect all the items on your way to [[Veilstone City]]. Head east a short distance, then circle around anticlockwise up and across the first bridge. Follow the path until you reach the third bridge, make a detour to fight the [[Black Belt]] to its south, then Cut your way through to another Black Belt to collect the [[Fist Plate]] and jump over the ledge. Use Cut on the tree below the next hill to harvest some Berries, then head up the hill, detour south across the fourth and final bridge. Follow the path onward collecting all the items that are of interest, making sure to Cut your way through to {{tm|34|Shock Wave}} just below the largest grassy patch.

== Size parameter ==

This template needs a size parameter so we can stop the whining of "exploding" templates due to new a teeny-weeny larger animated images (particularly those of Typhlosion). No, we can't make it smaller AND have the animation, because that would be loss in quality, and no, we can't let it be non-animated either because Gen IV sprites should be animated.

So, add the size parameter now. Thanx. '''UltimateSephiroth''' ([[User:UltimateSephiroth|about me]] · [[User talk:UltimateSephiroth|chat]] · [[Special:Contributions/UltimateSephiroth|edits]]) 14:45, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

It'll be resolved once we decide on the best approach. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''electAbuzz''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']] 14:50, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
::Okay... :p Now that I know there is a fix under way, I can let the sprites stay stationary for a while (the situation looked like only the sprites were reverted and nothing else was done). '''UltimateSephiroth''' ([[User:UltimateSephiroth|about me]] · [[User talk:UltimateSephiroth|chat]] · [[Special:Contributions/UltimateSephiroth|edits]]) 14:56, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

== Dual gender and abilities ==

The Pokémon without [[gender]] and [[ability]] '''[[Primo#Given away (as eggs)|like]] [[Lucas (game)#Caught in tutorial|these]]''' seems sucks! It should listed at least dual gender for gendered Pokémon and the possible abilities. Can someone add those parameter, also for another similar templates like this {{template|Pokémon/5}}, please? ~~ [[Special:Random|'''AKUro?''']] [[User talk:Akurochan|あくロ]][[Special:Contributions/Akurochan|ちゃん]] 04:09, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

== PBR Box Sprites ==

May I ask an admin to add a parameter to this template to use the [[a:Category:Pokémon Battle Revolution box sprites|Pokémon Battle Revoultion Box Sprites]] similar to how {{tl|Pokémon/3}} uses the Box Sprites from Pokémon Colosseum and XD? Thanks. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 01:17, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

== Cleaner Template Code ==

Hey, I have been going through the various 'mega templates' and noticed that a lot of them are using complex links rather than templates that already are in place. some examples for this template would include:
 '''''<nowiki>[[{{{type2|Unknown}}} (type)|{{color|FFFFFF|'''{{{type2|Unknown}}}'''}}]]</nowiki>'''''
 Rather than using the more concise and readable:
 
'''''<nowiki>{{tcolor|{{{type2|Unknown}}}|FFFFFF|'''{{{type2|Unknown}}}'''}}</nowiki>'''''
 when put into the template both look exactly the same.
 
{| style="background: #000;"
|[[{{{type2|Unknown}}} (type)|{{color|FFFFFF|'''{{{type2|Unknown}}}'''}}]]
|}
{| style="background: #000;"
|{{tcolor|{{{type2|Unknown}}}|FFFFFF|'''{{{type2|Unknown}}}'''}}
|}
I have almost this entire template redone in that way and I am working on some of the others. If anyone able to edit the major templates is interested in seeing how I have changed the code for this template and others please let me know.

[[User:KyraMara|KyraMara]] ([[User talk:KyraMara|talk]]) 05:19, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
:Using templates within a template can be problematic in the first place. (FYI, I don't altogether understand the specifics of why myself, so I can't explain it well.) This is particularly sensitive when a template constitutes a significant portion of the page, as with most of the "mega" templates (or so I presume). And tcolor is a bigger template than color, which I understand also increases the potential for problems; if anything, templates are more likely to be removed (expanded out) as has happened with some templates when there have been issues. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:33, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
:: I think that makes sense, not entirely sure though. I mean the color template is designed to for non-link usage so wouldn't it make sense to at the very least use the color2 template? (Sorry it's almost 1am here so I'm very tired and trying to find logic where there might not be any to begin with.) Let us finish this conversation in the morning. [[User:KyraMara|KyraMara]] ([[User talk:KyraMara|talk]]) 05:51, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
:::It might be basically reasonable. It's at least very close to the same size as color. But it's not an update that's going to happen any time soon. Such widely used templates impact the wiki when they are updated, so such a trivial update is not going to be reason enough to make any changes. (And this template has few reasons to be updated otherwise.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:43, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
::::Yea I am a web programmer (like that's my degree) so when I see stuff like this it confuses me and such. Plus I have a hobby of taking the templates from wikis and translating them into pure PHP to look for delays ect to see if I can find ways to decrease load times which is how I realized that those links could be converted into the more user-friendly versions. ((It's fine not to take me seriously just let me know you aren't going to be taking me seriously lol) [[User:KyraMara|KyraMara]] ([[User talk:KyraMara|talk]]) 16:37, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

If you have the [[Event Pokémon]] {{p|Shaymin}} in your party, you can show it to the young woman near the entrance to receive the [[Gracidea]] flower. Since this is the first area in which you can encounter wild Berries, you can collect and then replant some. The Sprayduck can help you collect more Berries if you water the plants correctly within their growth cycle. Tell the girl in the north-western house that you like berries and she'll hand over {{TM|88|Pluck}}.

After this, exit Floaroma Town to the east and continue walking to {{rt|205|Sinnoh}}. Near the bridge, a young girl comes up to you and asks you to rescue her papa from the [[Valley Windworks]].

If you want to, you can face the [[Galactic Grunt]] here who is guarding the door. After defeating him, he will run inside the Valley Windworks and lock the door. However, he will tell you that his comrades in Floaroma Meadow have a spare key. So, return to Floaroma Town and enter the [[Floaroma Meadow|meadow]] to the north.

===Floaroma Meadow===
As you enter the meadow, you notice that two Galactic Grunts appear to be fighting with an old man. You ''don't'' have the option of facing these two first before facing the grunt at the entrance of Valley Windworks.

The two grunts will disappear, leaving behind their [[Works Key|Valley Windworks key]]. The man they were trying to rob thanks you, then gives you ten [[Sweet Honey]]s as a gift. Now that you have the Works Key, return to the Windworks and open the door.

Also, later on in the game (after acquiring the ability to use {{m|Surf}}), you can use the hidden entrance to the meadow around [[Fuego Ironworks]] to find some more items.

===Inside Windworks===

When you enter the Windworks, you will startle the grunt who had previously blocked the door. He quickly turns and runs away to warn [[Mars|the Commander]]. Follow him, battling the two grunts along the way. The Commander notices you and talks to you about Team Galactic, providing some information. She promptly challenges you to a battle.

The danger here is that Mars' Level 17 {{p|Purugly}} is tough to beat unless if your team was well prepared beforehand. If you started with {{p|Chimchar}}, having it evolve into {{p|Monferno}} (at Lv. 14) to learn {{m|Mach Punch}} is useful. {{p|Machop}} and its {{m|Karate Chop}} attack will also work as an alternative. Other good Pokémon to use would be {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Staravia}} or {{p|Luxio}}. Upon defeat, Mars will gather her grunts and leave the Windworks after [[Charon|another Commander]] reminds her that they've already collected enough energy from the Windworks for their plans.

The little girl's father thanks you for rescuing him, and his daughter runs in happily, thanking you as she passes. You now may continue north on Route 205, which was previously blocked by Galactic Grunts. After leaving the Windworks, [[Looker]] shows up and mentions that he heard of the attack on the Windworks and at first is in disbelief that you drove Team Galactic away. He then mentions that Team Galactic is rumored to have a [[Team Galactic Eterna Building|hideout]] in [[Eterna City]]. Before continuing north, return to Floaroma Town and heal up your team.

As stated before, the {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt|Galactic Grunt}}s who were blocking you from entering {{rt|205|Sinnoh}} are now gone with Commander Mars. You can cross the small bridge and then continue heading north until you get to Eterna Forest. Ascend to the raised western side of the route, and battle your way to the the house at the top, where the woman ininside can heal your Pokemon. Jump down the ledges on the eastern side of the route, battling all the trainers and collecting all the items on the lower level, then head left just before the last ledge and ascend back up to the top of the route and enter Eterna Forest.

Now that you have the ability to use {{m|Rock Smash}} outside of battle, you'll be able to smash the small rocks in the northern part of the [[Oreburgh Gate]]'s main floor to descend to the basement. For the moment, you'll only be able to collect {{TM|70|Flash}} and the [[Big Pearl]], but if you come back once you've obtained the [[Bicycle]], as well as the HM moves {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Strength}}, you'll be able to collect the remaining items. Now travel back through the same {{rt|203|Sinnoh|route}} you used to get to Oreburgh and return to Jubilife City.

After you have an encounter with [[Looker]], who talks about the [[Pal Pad]] upon entering the city, head to the North exit and you'll see [[Professor Rowan]] and {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}} being confronted by two male [[Galactic Grunt]]s who are demanding to know something from his research. After threatening to get violent you'll team up with Lucas/Dawn in a tag battle to deal with these grunts.

Afterwards, you'll learn it has to do with the Professor's study on Pokémon evolution and the energy the Pokémon releases when it evolves. Although the Professor believes it's something beyond their control, Team Galactic seems interested in trying to harness its power. After they leave, a person from Jubilife TV will come and give you the [[Fashion Case]] as a reward for this amazing performance and tells you that the TV station is now open to visitors. Additionally, the Global Trade Station will also be open.

The [[Pokémon Lottery Corner]] is located on the ground floor of the [[Jubilife TV]] building, where it is conducted by a receptionist named [[Felicity]]. The winning ID number changes daily, and the game looks for matches by examining the IDs of all Pokémon in the player's party and in all PC boxes (but not Pokémon in the {{pkmn|Day Care}}). You may check for matches multiple times in one day; however, after winning a prize, you may not participate again for the rest of the day.

On the second floor, Trainers can dress up their Pokémon using their [[Accessory|Accessories]]. The saved photo of a dressed-up Pokémon is displayed in the gallery just outside the Fitting Room, along with up to ten photos from Trainers that the player has [[Record mixing|mixed records]] with. After dressing up a Pokémon and taking a photo, an {{tc|Interviewer}} will appear outside of the entrance to the gallery to ask the player about the photo. In the main area, a man will give the player the mask of the [[Starter Pokémon|Pokémon that they started with]].

{{Itemlist|None|sprite=Accessory Piplup Mask Sprite|[[Accessory]]; if the player started with {{p|Piplup}}|Pt=yes|display=Piplup Mask}}
{{Itlistfoot|building}}

On the third floor there are two rooms off-shooting from the main room: the Group Ranking Room and the Global Ranking Room, which detail rankings from players in the player's [[group]] and all players, respectively. There are three machines in each room, each detailing different concepts to be ranked in. A man in the yellow-carpeted area is a TV producer who asks the player for their opinion on TV. By answering EVERYONE HAPPY for the first question and Wi-Fi CONNECTION for the second question, the player can unlock [[Mystery Gift]]. Additionally, certain phrases that vary based on game version, language, and [[Trainer ID number]] can be told to the TV producer to unlock eight special wallpapers. The passwords can be retrieved from the Daisuki Club website or [http://www.filb.de/games/tools/aikotoba?l=en Filb.de's secret phrase generator].

Several people are on the fourth floor, but there is nothing of interest here.

The Global Trade Station (GTS for short) is the worldwide network over which you can trade Pokémon via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Now that you have Coal Badge, the GTS is also open. There is a large globe called the Geonet, which you can indicate their location, and on which small dots representing players you have traded with will appear. When you first logs on to Geonet, you will be asked where you live in. Talk to the woman at the counter. She will direct you into a room in which you can either put up a Pokémon to be traded or trade a Pokémon you own for one that has been put up.
Pokémon searches, after being confined to one species that has been seen by the player, can be further narrowed down to level, gender and the country where the person is trading it from is. By level, players can search for and request Pokémon Lv.9 or below, Lv.10 or above, Lv.20 or above and so on until Lv.100, or they can search for Pokémon of any level. Gender is similar, with the player being able to search for male, female or either gender of the selected Pokémon; searching for genderless species automatically sets the gender to 'either'.
Pokémon offerings are similarly governed, as the requested Pokémon in return cannot be any Pokémon that the player has not seen. Pokémon that are offered cannot be bargained, as the player has to choose one Pokémon he or she wants for it, instead of having a more flexible list. Like normal trades, a Pokémon can also hold an item when being offered or traded. Pokémon that evolve after a trade will do so in the same manner they would after a normal trade. The GTS also allows individuals to trade between two different games without having two Nintendo DS systems. It is recommended to check up on a deposited Pokémon every so often, as the Pokémon may flee if it is kept in the GTS for an extended period of time.

Afterwards you can travel to the [[Pokétch Company]] and get an upgrade for your Pokétch from the company president. You can get three more upgrades later in the game when you get three, five, and seven Badges. Anyway, head through the north exit to {{rt|204|Sinnoh}}. You may want to heal up at the Pokémon Center first, as there are a lot of Trainers.

From the entrance of the route, walk north, battling the Youngster and the two Lasses, until you reach a small cave, the [[Ravaged Path]]. Later in the game you can come back with {{m|Surf}} to get the {{DL|Incense|Sea Incense}} that will allow you to produce a {{p|Azurill}} egg when you have a {{p|Marill}} or {{p|Azumarill}} [[held items|hold]] it when breeding.

Enter the [[Ravaged Path]]. {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}} is a short distance behind the {{m|Rock Smash|smashable rock}} to your north. The exit of this cave is just on the other side of the rocks to the right of the stairs. Once out, you arrive on the upper part of the Route 204. Come back later after getting the HM Surf and you can find {{TM|03|Water Pulse}} along with the {{DL|Incense|Luck Incense}} that will allow you to produce a {{p|Happiny}} egg through breeding.

Upon entering the short, flower-filled route, turn left and take the flight of stairs. As you walk along the route, pick up an [[Awakening]] and {{TM|09|Bullet Seed}}. Walk through the grass patch and battle the Bug Catcher and the Twins. To battle the Twins, you must have two usable Pokémon. At the end of the route, you'll arrive in [[Floaroma Town]].

Afterwards you can travel along battling Trainers and picking up items. Right here is where you first encounter a wild {{p|Abra}}. It may be useful to know that they have a 5% of holding a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|TwistedSpoon}}, an item that can enhance the power of any {{type|Psychic}} moves your Pokémon may have. However, it is recommended that you come back later with a Pokémon that knows {{m|Thief}}, {{m|Covet}}, or {{m|Trick}} to collect this item in order to make it easier to get. Also, since they {{m|Teleport}} away on the first turn of battle, you may find it very difficult to catch one until you have a more effective variant of [[Poké Ball]] on hand.

A hiker greets you at the entrance of Oreburgh Gate. He gives you {{HM|06|Rock Smash}}, but you can't use it outside of battle until you have the {{badge|Coal}}. Proceed east and you have the option to battle a Camper and Picnicker, respectively. If you chose {{p|Chimchar}} as your starter, catching a {{p|Psyduck}} in this tunnel and raising it to learn {{m|Water Gun}} may be a big help in the upcoming [[Gym]] match.

Note that the basement level of Oreburgh Gate is inaccessible until you can use Rock Smash. After getting through the tunnel, you'll arrive in Oreburgh City.

This city is the location of your first Gym challenge... but the [[Gym Leader]] isn't awaiting your challenge: He's in [[Oreburgh Mine]], located south of the Pokémon Center. From this city, you also have the option of heading through the north exit to {{rt|207|Sinnoh}} to find some new wild Pokémon.

In one of the houses here, there is a woman, Hilary, who will [[trade]] you her {{p|Abra}}, nicknamed Kazza, in exchange for a Machop. Additionally, remember the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]], as it will be useful if you find [[Fossil]]s later in the game.

If you need a {{p|Machop}} for the upcoming Gym Battle you can travel here to Route 207 and find one, as well as a {{p|Ponyta}}. Ponyta is the only wild {{type|Fire}} you can find at this point in the game, and you should consider adding it to your team if you chose a starter other than Chimchar. Beside that, you won't be able to travel far on this Route until much later in the game.

After walking down the steps leading to the inside of the mine, you will enter a rectangular room. Upon reaching the large block of coal in the center of the room, turn right, and then walk south until you reach the end of the wall, at which point you should see a red-haired man in a mining helmet a few steps to your left. Talk to him, and he will introduce himself as [[Roark]], the town's Gym Leader, and show you how to use Rock Smash. He then tells you that he will be back at the Gym, ready to challenge you. Exit the mine and head to the Gym.

==Oreburgh Gym==
[[File:Oreburgh Gym DPPt.png|thumb|Interior of Oreburgh Gym.]]
This Gym, as you have probably figured out, specializes in {{type|Rock}} Pokémon. The toughest Pokémon you'll face is Level 14, so be prepared. Rock-type moves are [[Damage modification|supereffective]] against {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Flying}}-, {{t|Ice}}-, and {{t|Fire}}-types, so obviously you don't want to use Pokémon of those types in this battle. Also, you will want Pokémon with {{t|Water}}-, {{t|Grass}}-, {{t|Fighting}}-, and/or {{t|Ground}}-type attacks. You should bring a few [[Potion]]s to this battle, just in case.

After retrieving [[Roark]] from the mine, you may enter the Gym and battle the two Trainers, or you can take the first set of stairs, go across the bridge and walk up the second set of stairs to avoid battling. Then, you may challenge Gym Leader Roark.

Roark's first two Pokémon shouldn't be too much trouble. The {{p|Geodude}} knows {{m|Rock Throw}} and {{m|Stealth Rock}}, and its best stat is [[Defense]]. Stealth Rock will damage any Pokémon you switch into battle (Most Pokémon will lose 1/8 of their [[HP]] if hit. It will damage more if the Pokémon is weak to Rock-type moves, and less if it is resistant.). Rock Throw is just an attack, which is thankfully somewhat inaccurate. A good Grass- or Water-type attack will likely take Geodude out in one hit. Roark's {{p|Onix}} may be a bit more challenging, mostly because it has more Defense and [[Speed]], and can use {{m|Screech}} to lower your Pokémon's Defense in addition to Rock Throw and Stealth Rock. If you get hit with Screech, you may want to switch before Roark sends out Cranidos. Cranidos is rather fast for this point of the game, and has a scary amount of [[Attack]] that will do massive damage with {{m|Headbutt}} or {{m|Pursuit}}, particularly if Onix used Screech or if Cranidos previously used {{m|Leer}} against you. Try switching in a Pokémon with Intimidate like Shinx or Luxio to lower Cranidos's threat, but beware of Stealth Rock. It doesn't have the best defenses though, so one Water or Grass-type move should send it out for the count.

After being defeated, Roark will give you the {{badge|Coal}} and {{TM|76|Stealth Rock}}. The Badge will give you the ability to use {{m|Rock Smash}} outside of battle.

Your business in Oreburgh is done for now. Next, you'll be returning to [[Jubilife City]] so you can travel north to [[Floaroma Town]].

==Learning to Catch Pokémon==
Leave [[Sandgem Town]] between the [[Pokémon Center]] and the [[Poké Mart]] to enter {{rt|202|Sinnoh}}, carry on along the route to meet {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} who will teach you how to catch a Pokémon.

Dawn/Lucas and Player walk into grass, and you meet a wild {{p|Bidoof}}. Dawn/Lucas will demonstrate how to catch a Pokémon.

You can now continue to Route 202 after.

==Route 202==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 202 Pt.png|thumb|right|200px|Route 202]]

After the demonstration on how to catch a Pokémon, {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} will give you 5 [[Poké Ball]]s to get you started. Go further along the route, it's pretty straightforward. You can use the ledges to escape the grass if you need to heal, and after fighting through 3 {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, keep going west to find a [[Potion]] in a patch of grass. After this, head north to reach [[Jubilife City]].

Upon entrance to Jubilife, you will notice that it is a much larger town that either [[Twinleaf town|Twinleaf]] or Sandgem. As soon as you walk into Jubilife City, Dawn/Lucas will come up to you and talk to you for a while. Dawn/Lucas will then take you up the main street for a while, until you see [[Looker]] hiding behind a lamp post between the [[Pokémon Center]] and the Trainer's School. Looker will then talk to you for a short time. After that he will give you the [[Vs. Recorder]] and be on his way.

====Trainer's School====
One of the first things you should do in Jubilife is visit the Pokémon Trainer's School. Inside the school will be your rival! Go up to talk to him, and deliver the parcel from his mom. Your rival notices that there are two town maps, so he gives you one of them. Your rival leaves promptly after this. Inside the school, you can study the blackboard to learn about [[status condition]]s, or you can battle the two Trainers in the northeast corner of the room. There is also an {{DL|Battle Item|X Attack}} hidden among some of the books on the west side.

Once you leave the Trainer's School and start heading north, a man will interrupt you and tell you about a promotion for the [[Pokétch]]. If you find the three clowns and receive all the coupons, you will be given a free Pokétch!

; Clown 1
: Can be found in the area of the [[Poké Mart]].
: Question: "Does a Pokémon grow by defeating others and gaining EXP Points?"
: The answer to this clown's question is "Yes".
; Clown 2
: This one is standing in front of the Pokétch Company in the northwest corner of town.
: Question: "Just like Pokémon types, do the moves also have types?"
: The answer to this clown's question is "Yes".
; Clown 3
: This clown is blocking the entrance to the [[Jubilife TV]] station.
: Question: "Can a Pokémon hold an item?"
: The answer to this clown's question is "Yes".

Next, it is a good idea to head west to {{rt|218|Sinnoh}} to obtain the {{DL|Fishing|Old Rod}} from a [[Fisherman]]. That's the only thing you'll find there for now, until you can use {{m|Surf}}. After you have obtained the coupons, return to the man and receive your Pokétch. After you are finished exploring Jubilife City, your next destination is {{rt|203|Sinnoh}}.

Be prepared for a rival battle, though, so heal up your Pokémon at the [[Pokémon Center]] before continuing and train if necessary.

KyraMara: changing from complicated links to appropriate template

==Starting the game==

[[File:Player Bedroom DPPt.png|thumb|left|150px|The player's room]]
[[File:Diamond Pearl Rowan.png|thumb|right|100px|Professor Rowan]]
The game loads with [[Giratina]] being shown on the bottom title screen. Press Start, A, or tap the screen to go to the main menu, then start a new game. You will be greeted by [[Professor Rowan]], who will ask if you need advice about playing the game.

Afterward, Rowan will ask you about yourself. Here, choose your gender, name, and the name of {{ga|Barry|your rival}}. None of these can be changed later on, so be sure you're happy with each choice before continuing to the next one.

After choosing your rival's name, you will be brought to your house in [[Twinleaf Town]].

==Twinleaf Town==

The game starts with you at the TV, watching the tail end of a show featuring [[Professor Rowan]]. As you try to move, you will be greeted by your [[rival]], who will briefly be distracted by your [[PC]], and will then tell you to meet him outside as he dashes off. Follow him downstairs, where you'll have a short conversation with your [[Johanna|mom]]. Just before you leave, your mom will tell you to stay away from the [[tall grass]].

Twinleaf Town is cold, with patches of {{Weather|snow}} on the ground. As you explore the town, be sure to visit the house in the north-west corner of the town. Here, your rival will bump into you as you try to enter. He'll head back in immediately, however, because he forgot something. Head upstairs and your rival will ask you to meet him at {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}. Leave his house and head north. Soon, you'll find yourself on Route 201.

==Route 201==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 201 Pt.png|right|thumb|300px|Route 201]]
[[Lake Verity]] is to the west, while [[Sandgem Town]] is to the east. As you go north, you meet up with your rival for a chat. He suggests that the two of you go to [[Sandgem Town]] to get Pokémon from Professor Rowan. When you point out you shouldn't go into the tall grass, he naively suggests running through the tall grass so fast that wild Pokémon have no chance to jump out at you (running through tall grass actually increases the chance that you'll be attacked by a wild Pokémon). Just as he's about to enter the grass, an old man shouts at him to halt.

The man is Professor Rowan, and he is not happy! He tells you two not to go to tall grass, then quizzes you about your love for Pokémon; eventually {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} will appear, and the professor will ask you to pick your very first Pokémon.

{{p|Turtwig}} has high HP, Attack, and Defense, and its final evolution gains {{t|Ground}} as a secondary type; few moves are [[Damage#Super_effective|super effective]] or [[Damage#Not_very_effective|not very effective]] against this combination. Its Grass/Ground typing will be effective in more [[Gym]]s than Piplup, but in fewer than Chimchar.

{{p|Chimchar}} has high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed. Its second evolution gains the {{t|Fighting}} type, a combination that means its attacks will be very effective against the most Gyms out of the three choices, not to mention the Pokémon League. However, its very low Defense and Special Defense mean it will be vulnerable even to types it resists.

{{p|Piplup}} is similar to Turtwig; it has high Defense and Special Attack, and its final form gains {{t|Steel}} as the secondary type. This combination will resist many different move types, though {{t|Fire}}-type moves will become normally effective. Piplup will have a harder time with Gyms, but its wide range of resistances combined with its high Defense allow it to take quite the pounding.

Once you made your choice, in true [[Rival]] fashion, Barry will pick the one that has the type advantage over your choice. Rowan will point out that these Pokémon are inexperienced with the world and need you to help them grow before he and Lucas/Dawn return to Sandgem Town. Barry will then challenge you to an immediate battle. You don't have to win this battle, but winning awards [[Experience]] points for your new starter, as well as a small amount of spending money.

After the battle you will immediately go home.

==Twinleaf Town==
Back at home, your mom is happy that you and Barry met Professor Rowan, since he stopped you from being attacked by wild Pokémon. She then asks for you to thank him properly in Sandgem Town and gives you the ever-useful [[Running Shoes]].

[[File:Lake Verity Pt.png|right|thumb|200px]]
After arriving back on Route 201, you'll meet up with {{ga|Barry}} again. He reveals that he's also planning to go to [[Sandgem Town]], and he asks you to come with him to [[Lake Verity]] first to find and catch the rumored legendary Pokémon to show to Professor Rowan.

Once at Lake Verity you will see [[Cyrus]], the leader of [[Team Galactic]]. He boasts to the legendary Pokémon of the lake that he will one day take control of Time and Space, then leaves the scene. When Barry is ready to press forward, you will hear this {{p|Mesprit|legendary Pokémon}}, and he is ready to catch it only to realize that neither of you have any [[Poké Ball]]s to catch it with. Barry then recalls that Professor Rowan said to come to him if they needed anything, so Barry then departs for Sandgem Town. With nothing more to do here, follow him south and then east along Route 201.

Once past Verity Lakefront, you are free to explore the tall grass, though you can't catch any wild Pokémon yet. Talk to the [[Poké Mart]] employee near the entrance to Sandgem Town to receive a free [[Potion]], then head east to reach the town.

==Sandgem Town==
[[File:Sandgem Town Pt.png|thumb|200px|Sandgem Town]]
Once you arrive, Lucas/Dawn are waiting to escort you inside Rowan's laboratory. Just as you're about to enter, Barry comes rushing out, commenting that Rowan is not as scary as he appears to be, before he dashes off. Once inside, the Professor takes a look at your Pokémon and approvingly allows you to keep it. Seeing the growing bond between you and your Pokémon, the Professor gives you a [[Pokédex]] and requests that you travel across Sinnoh and record data on the various Pokémon you meet.

Outside the lab, Rowan gives you {{TM|27|Return}}. Lucas/Dawn will show you around town, then suggest that you talk with your mom about what you've so quickly agreed to do. Before you go, you may want to head south of Sandgem to Route 219 and grab the Antidote waiting there, heal up your Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Center]], and maybe even buy some [[Poké Ball]]s in the [[Poké Mart]] by speaking to the cashier. As far as Pokémon to catch, {{p|Bidoof}} are very versatile and can learn 6 out of 8 of the [[Hidden Machine]]s that are necessary for navigating the whole of Sinnoh, while {{p|Starly}} are a solid addition to any team (though they will not be very useful in the first [[Gym]]).

Finally, head west out of Sandgem and use the ledges to return to Twinleaf.

==Twinleaf Town==
Enter your house, where your mom agrees that you should go on this adventure, and gives you a {{key|IV|Journal}} to record it. Barry's mother shows up looking for her son, and asks you to give him a {{key|IV|Parcel}}, suggesting that Barry is likely in Jubilife City by now.

Now, return to Sandgem.

==Route 201==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 201 Pt.png|right|thumb|300px|Route 201]]
[[Lake Verity]] is to the west, while [[Sandgem Town]] is to the east. As you go north, you meet up with your rival for a chat. He suggests that the two of you go to [[Sandgem Town]] to get Pokémon from Professor Rowan. When you point out you shouldn't go into the tall grass, he naively suggests running through the tall grass so fast that wild Pokémon have no chance to jump out at you (running through tall grass actually increases the chance that you'll be attacked by a wild Pokémon). Just as he's about to enter the grass, an old man shouts at him to halt.

The man is Professor Rowan, and he is not happy! He tells you two not to go to tall grass, then quizzes you about your love for Pokémon; eventually {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} will appear, and the professor will ask you to pick your very first Pokémon.

{{p|Turtwig}} has high HP, Attack, and Defense, and its final evolution gains {{t|Ground}} as a secondary type; few moves are [[Damage#Super_effective|super effective]] or [[Damage#Not_very_effective|not very effective]] against this combination. Its Grass/Ground typing will be effective in more [[Gym]]s than Piplup, but in fewer than Chimchar.

{{p|Chimchar}} has high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed. Its second evolution gains the {{t|Fighting}} type, a combination that means its attacks will be very effective against the most Gyms out of the three choices, not to mention the Pokémon League. However, its very low Defense and Special Defense mean it will be vulnerable even to types it resists.

{{p|Piplup}} is similar to Turtwig; it has high Defense and Special Attack, and its final form gains {{t|Steel}} as the secondary type. This combination will resist many different move types, though {{t|Fire}}-type moves will become normally effective. Piplup will have a harder time with Gyms, but its wide range of resistances combined with its high Defense allow it to take quite the pounding.

Once you made your choice, in true [[Rival]] fashion, Barry will pick the one that has the type advantage over your choice. Rowan will point out that these Pokémon are inexperienced with the world and need you to help them grow before he and Lucas/Dawn return to Sandgem Town. Barry will then challenge you to an immediate battle. You don't have to win this battle, but winning awards [[Experience]] points for your new starter, as well as a small amount of spending money.

After the battle you will immediately go home.

==Twinleaf Town==
Back at home, your mom is happy that you and Barry met Professor Rowan, since he stopped you from being attacked by wild Pokémon. She then asks for you to thank him properly in Sandgem Town and gives you the ever-useful [[Running Shoes]].

After arriving back on Route 201, you'll meet up with {{ga|Barry}} again. He reveals that he's also planning to go to [[Sandgem Town]], and he asks you to come with him to [[Lake Verity]] first to find and catch the rumored legendary Pokémon to show to Professor Rowan.

Once at Lake Verity you will see [[Cyrus]], the leader of [[Team Galactic]]. He boasts to the legendary Pokémon of the lake that he will one day take control of Time and Space, then leaves the scene. When Barry is ready to press forward, you will hear this [[Mesprit (Pokémon)|legendary Pokémon]], and he is ready to catch it only to realize that neither of you have any [[Poké Ball]]s to catch it with. Barry then recalls that Professor Rowan said to come to him if they needed anything, so Barry then departs for Sandgem Town. With nothing more to do here, follow him south and then east along Route 201.

==Route 201==
Once past Verity Lakefront, you are free to explore the tall grass, though you can't catch any wild Pokémon yet. Talk to the [[Poké Mart]] employee near the entrance to Sandgem Town to receive a free [[Potion]], then head east to reach the town.

Once you arrive, Lucas/Dawn are waiting to escort you inside Rowan's laboratory. Just as you're about to enter, Barry comes rushing out, commenting that Rowan is not as scary as he appears to be, before he dashes off. Once inside, the Professor takes a look at your Pokémon and approvingly allows you to keep it. Seeing the growing bond between you and your Pokémon, the Professor gives you a [[Pokédex]] and requests that you travel across Sinnoh and record data on the various Pokémon you meet.

Outside the lab, Rowan gives you {{TM|27|Return}}. Lucas/Dawn will show you around town, then suggest that you talk with your mom about what you've so quickly agreed to do. Before you go, you may want to head south of Sandgem to Route 219 and grab the Antidote waiting there, heal up your Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Center]], and maybe even buy some [[Poké Ball]]s in the [[Poké Mart]] by speaking to the cashier. As far as Pokémon to catch, {{p|Bidoof}} are very versatile and can learn 6 out of 8 of the [[Hidden Machine]]s that are necessary for navigating the whole of Sinnoh, while {{p|Starly}} are a solid addition to any team (though they will not be very useful in the first [[Gym]]).

Finally, head west out of Sandgem and use the ledges to return to Twinleaf.

==Twinleaf Town==
Enter your house, where your mom agrees that you should go on this adventure, and gives you a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Journal}} to record it. Barry's mother shows up looking for her son, and asks you to give him a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Parcel}}, suggesting that Barry is likely in Jubilife City by now.

Now, return to Sandgem.

'''Smoochum''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムチュール''' ''Muchul'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ice|Psychic}} [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation II]].

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

==Biology==
Smoochum is a small, humanoid Pokémon that resembles a baby. It has a large head with blonde hair that reaches its shoulders and has large bangs. There are several tufts of hair sticking up on top of its head. Its skin is light purple with a cream-colored chest, arms and feet. It has large, blue-green eyes and a pair of large, pink lips. These lips are sensitive enough that Smoochum uses them to identify and examine objects that it sees for the first time, and are kept moist by its daily application of tree sap.

When walking, Smoochum rocks its head back and forth. This Pokémon is very active and runs about, although it often falls. Being very conscious of its appearance, it will check is reflection when given the chance to make sure it is not dirty.

==Trivia==
* No Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Smoochum and its evolution, {{p|Jynx}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Smoochum is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Lovely Kiss}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no male Pokémon in the {{egg2|Human-Like}} can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg Move]] in those games. In [[Generation VI]], {{p|Jynx}} would have been able to pass down the move due to changes in breeding mechanics allowing mothers to pass down Egg Moves.
* Smoochum has the lowest base {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type|Ice}} Pokémon.
** Smoochum is tied with {{p|Abra}} for having the lowest base Defense of all {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Smoochum may be based on ガン黒 ''{{wp|ganguro}}'', blonde-haired, tanned Japanese girls, but is meant to resemble an otherwise normal human child. {{wp|Yuki Onna}}, a possible origin for Jynx, is sometimes shown as holding a seemingly human child. Smoochum could also be based on the legend of ''{{wp|Kintarō}}'', a human child raised by the {{wp|Yama Uba}}, another possible origin of Jynx.

====Name origin====
Smoochum is derived from ''smooch'' (a {{wp|kiss}}). It also may be a combination of ''smooch'' and ''chum'' (friend). It may also be a pun on "smooch 'em."

Muchul is a combination of 夢中 ''muchū'' (daze or trance) and ちゅう ''chu'' (the sound of a kiss).

==In other languages==

Walkthrough:Pokémon Diamond and Pearl/Part 15

2018-02-19T04:04:57Z

KyraMara: change Lucas to {{ga|Lucas}} -- Removes redirect!

==Now that you can use {{m|Strength}}......==
There are many places you can access with Strength, such as the secret part of [[Wayward Cave]] (this will be further introduced). You can also get some items you previously couldn't get.

If you haven't got {{HM|04|Strength}}, go back to {{rt|209|Sinnoh}}. Explore [[Lost Tower]]. Refer to Section 8 for details.
===[[Oreburgh Gate]] (Basement)===
'''You need to bring Pokémon with {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Rock Smash}}.'''

Go to the basement. Surf to where you fought Veteran Grant. Go down the stairs and use Strength to push the boulder. Collect the [[Earth Plate]]. Then go north and use Rock Smash first. After that, push the boulder to the west. You can get the {{TM|01|Focus Punch}}.

==={{rt|211|Sinnoh}} (East)===
There is a boulder for you to push. But you'll get totally nothing. You can simply ignore it. Go into Mt. Coronet for items.
===[[Mt. Coronet]] (Northern area)===
'''You need to bring a Pokémon with {{m|Rock Smash}}.'''

You can get some items here. You can also get to Routes 216-217, Lake Acuity and Snowpoint City, but this is not recommended. There is a blizzard on Route 217, so it is very hard to get through. If you are determined to get through this route now, '''be prepared for the worst situation''', as the [[Town Map]] mentioned. To get to Route 216, '''Pokémon with {{m|Defog}} is also required.'''

Go to {{rt|206|Sinnoh}} again. {{m|Cut}} down the trees and access the route under the Cycling Road. There is a hidden entrance of [[Wayward Cave]] under the Cycling Road west of the main entrance of the cave. Enter it and use {{m|Flash}}. You will find 5 boulders blocking your way. These 5 boulders form a cross. Use {{m|Strength}} to push the boulder in the middle to the north, then go through the stairs to the basement.

There are a lot of ramps and slopes. You need your [[Bicycle]] to get through. You will also need to switch gears at the right time to get the items. Use [[Repel]]s, [[Super Repel]]s or [[Max Repel]]s to repel the wild Pokémon, so that you can get the items successfully. Max Repels will help the most.

This basement is the only place to find wild {{p|Gible}}. Gible is a {{t|Dragon}}/{{t|Ground}}-type Pokémon. It evolves into {{p|Gabite}} at Level 24 and {{p|Garchomp}} at Level 48. Gible's evolutionary line has a high Attack stat and learns a lot of good Dragon-type and Ground-type moves (such as {{m|Dragon Claw}} and {{m|Dig}}). It also learns some {{type|Dark}} moves like {{m|Crunch}}. However, you will find Gible at Level 15 to 17, which is a distance from your Pokémon's level -- your Pokémon's level should be around Lv.40 by now. Using it or not, it's up to you.

There is another set of stairs in the southeast corner of the basement. This leads to the an isolated area in the main cave, which contains {{TM|26|Earthquake}}.

==Canalave Library==
Return to [[Canalave City]]. Go to [[Canalave Library]]. Head to the top floor, and [[Rival]] {{ga|Barry}} will lead you to the desk, which [[Professor Rowan]] and his aide {{ga|Lucas}} or {{ga|Dawn}} are waiting there.

Professor Rowan then talks about some results of his research about Pokémon [[evolution]], and mentions the [[Lake guardians]] -- {{p|Mesprit}}, {{p|Uxie}} and {{p|Azelf}}. He instructs his aide to go to [[Lake Verity]], you to [[Lake Valor]] and Barry to [[Lake Acuity]], saying that he needs a tough Trainer to go there. Barry says that he doesn't have a PokéDex, while Professor replies:

''"... And who was it that bolted from the lab before I had a chance to give you a PokéDex?"''

Then Professor says that witnessing a Pokémon with eyes are also important.

When Professor finishes talking, an "earthquake" suddenly occurred!

After the "earthquake", Professor Rowan, his aide and Barry immediately head outside. Professor tells you to be careful of the aftershock. When you regain control, you may talk to the other people in the library, and you'll find that everyone talks something different. Especially the librarian, she was obviously scared, but she claims that she is 'not the one who screamed, "Giyaaaah!" Or yelled out, "Heeeelp meeee!"'

Go out immediately. You will find everyone (Professor, his aide, Barry). A sailor comes and talks to all of you. He says that an explosion has occurred at Lake Valor, and the sound was very loud, like:

'''"Ka-Boom!"'''

So the "earthquake" was an explosion, after all! Professor Rowan tells you to go to Lake Valor immediately. He is very worried about what happened there. Professor Rowan and his aide will also head off to Lake Verity. Barry will head off to Lake Acuity, too.

Fly to either [[Pastoria City]] or [[Veilstone City]], then head to [[Valor Lakefront]]. If you fly to Pastoria City, head east to {{rt|213|Sinnoh}} and go through [[Hotel Grand Lake]]. If you fly to Veilstone City, go south to {{rt|214|Sinnoh}}.

==Valor Lakefront==
'''Heal up your Pokémon before proceeding.'''

Go all the way south from Route 214 (if you flew to Veilstone City). Or go east through Route 213, then turn north to go through Hotel Grand Lake. No matter which way you choose, you will arrive in Valor Lakefront again. Yes, where you arrive in is where you chased the Galactic Grunt all the way to and where [[Cynthia]] gave you the Secret Potion.

This time, no one is blocking the lake entrance. Go inside. You will be in Lake Valor.
==Lake Valor==
You will find the lake was dried up after the explosion. Many {{p|Magikarp}} are flopping around. It was terrible. What a mess! Who did this to the lake? You're probably furious about this, aren't you?
[[File:Lake Valor Dry DP.png|thumb|right|250px|The dried-up Lake Valor. Note the numerous {{p|Magikarp}} flailing.]]

Head west, and go down the stairs. You will find a grunt saying that they used a Galactic Bomb. It was none other [[Team Galactic]]! (Remember after the Pastoria Gym battle, a grunt outside the [[Great Marsh]] delivered a Galactic Bomb to Lake Valor, and you tailed him?) This should have infuriated everyone.

Head to the northwest corner, where a lot of Magikarp are flopping, and use your Dowsing Machine to help you collect a hidden [[HP Up]]. Then fight all of the grunts.

After fighting all of the grunts, go to the middle of the lake. Head inside the cave and you will be in the [[Valor Cavern]].
===Valor Cavern===
'''Heal up your Pokémon before proceeding.'''

There is almost nothing here, other than the final Team Galactic {{tc|Commander}} you encounter in the game— [[Saturn]]. Talk to him. He says that he has caught Azelf. He then recognizes you and challenges you to a battle.

This battle shouldn't be a big problem because you beat Canalave Gym Leader [[Byron]].

After beating you defeat Saturn, he tells you that Commander [[Mars]] should have caught Mesprit in Lake Verity by this time. Fly home to [[Twinleaf Town]] because this is the closest place to [[Lake Verity]].
==Lake Verity==
As you need to fly to Twinleaf Town, you may stop by your home (which is where you land) and talk to your in-game [[Johanna|Mom]] to heal your Pokémon.

'''Make sure that you heal your Pokémon before proceeding.'''

Now head north to {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}, head west and go through [[Verity Lakefront]], just like how you go to Lake Verity at the start of your game. But you have to go faster this time.

Go inside. You will find Professor Rowan arguing with a grunt. He notices you and yells out that his aide Lucas/Dawn needs your help! Fight all grunts and proceed.

You will see Lucas/Dawn having difficulty fighting against Mars. Talk to Lucas/Dawn, and he/she will request you to help him/her. Talk to Mars. She recognizes you, too (you beat her in [[Valley Windworks]]). She guesses that you have forgotten who she was and re-introduces herself. Then she will battle you again.

This battle wouldn't be too difficult for you, either. Be careful that Mars' {{p|Purugly}} might start off with {{m|Fake Out}} that will surely make your Pokémon flinch and force your Pokémon to skip a turn.

After beating her once again, Professor Rowan will tell you that he is worried about Barry.

The water level of the lake has risen, so surf around. Luckily, there is no damage and there is an item for you to get. Nothing is found inside [[Verity Cavern]], though.

What to do next, then? If you have gone all the way to [[Snowpoint City]] after beating Canalave Gym, fly to Snowpoint City now and head to Lake Acuity. But you probably have not. So, get ready for a long and tough journey. Head to either [[Eterna City]] or [[Celestic Town]] whenever you are ready because you will head to Routes 216 to 217 through [[Mt. Coronet]] and get to Lake Acuity. However, '''do not set off yet'''! Do some serious preparation first.

KyraMara: change Lucas to {{ga|Lucas}} -- Removes redirect!

==Route 215==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 215 DP.png|thumb|350px|Route 215]]
On this route, it is generally raining which weakens {{type|Fire}} moves while strengthening {{type|Water}} moves. Once you climb up the stairs near the entrance, cross the bridge to find a honey tree. Then follow the path east and talk to the guy in the Black Belt clothes to receive {{TM|66|Payback}}. Once you follow the path north and defeat the Black Belt Trainer, use {{m|Cut}} on the small tree to find another Black Belt Trainer, along with the {{DL|Plate|Fist Plate}}, which enhances {{type|Fighting}} attacks.

The very large building in the northeast corner is the headquarters of [[Team Galactic]], known as [[Galactic HQ]]. While the first floor has no problems, a door is blocking the stairs to the second floor, so there is nothing you can do at the moment until you have the proper key.
===Meteorites===
East of the [[Pokémon Center]] is a bunch of Meteorites. If you have a {{p|Deoxys}}, you can use them to transform it between its various {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Formes}}.
===Veilstone Department Store===
{{sign|DPcity|header}}

On this floor you can purchase a [[TM]]. Some good choices here are {{TM|54|False Swipe}}, which can help make it easier to catch Pokémon such as {{p|Unown}} at the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. Also if you need an extra copy to teach to a Pokémon to light up a cavern, {{TM|70|Flash}} will be a good choice because this former [[HM]] can help with places like [[Wayward Cave]].

If you head to the wall on the other side of the escalator and talk to the man there, you will receive a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Sticky Barb}}, a hold item that hurts the user unless if the foe uses a physical contact move which transfers the item to them.

===Massage Girl===

Once you are ready head to the south-west where the Gym is located. As you approach {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}} will appear and see that you are tougher and say that they've seen the Game Corner and have been working on their Pokédex before leaving. This Gym is a {{type|Fighting}} Gym so you will need a {{type|Flying}} or {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon to take advantage of the weaknesses of Fighting-type Pokémon, or a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon to shut them down due to the immunity. It is also recommended to also bring a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon such as {{p|Monferno}} or {{p|Ponyta}}, a {{type|Ground}} Pokémon (a {{p|Shellos}} with {{m|Mud Bomb}} may also work) or your own Fighting-type Pokémon like Monferno or {{p|Machoke}} for help in dealing with Maylene's {{p|Lucario}} which is part {{type|Steel}}, that can cause only normal damage with Flying-type and Psychic-type Pokémon.

'''Make sure that you heal your Pokémon before going into the Gym.''' It is also recommended that you should train your Pokémon until they are at Level 27 or above.

The puzzle in the Gym is to move the special walls around to go through the small room blocks so you can line up the boxes in the middle to get to Leader [[Maylene]]. First head for the walls on the right and then move the ones between right and middle side blocks. Next, go through the walls to get the ones on right side corner of the Gym. This will help you reach the movable wall above for the top box in the middle row that will get you to Maylene.

Next deal with the movable walls on the left row. First head to the middle row and move the two walls, that should help you get to eventually move ones of the left side to get to the top of the left row to move the last wall. With the middle road clear you can now reach Maylene.

Once you've have defeated Maylene, she will give you the {{DL|Badge|Cobble Badge}} that will allow you to use Fly outside of battle. Maylene will also give you {{TM|60|Drain Punch}}.
==Getting back Lucas'/Dawn's Pokédex==
Once you leave the Gym, Lucas/Dawn will be waiting for you, and explain that after dropping their Pokédex, Team Galactic found and took it, and needs you at the Galactic warehouse to get it back. It should be located near the Department store where the entrance is guarded by two male Team Galactic grunts. When ready talk to Lucas/Dawn to enter a Tag Battle.

Once you defeat both grunts they return the stolen Pokédex and run away, but not before mentioning that contents from their warehouse has been moved to [[Pastoria City]] already. Lucas/Dawn thanks you and mentions that the Pastoria has the [[Great Marsh]] where many kinds of Pokémon are found. Quickly head into the warehouse to pick up {{HM|02|Fly}}. Now that you have the Badge, you can use it outside of battle. Nothing else can be done here now. Use the southern gate to reach Route 214.

[[File:Canalave Gym 3F DPPt.png|left|thumb|250px|Canalave Gym 3F]]
[[File:Canalave Gym 4F DPPt.png|thumb|250px|Canalave Gym 4F]]

Be aware that the toughest Pokémon you'll face here is Level 41. The layout of the [[Canalave Gym]] is a maze consisting of multiple elevator platforms. As you may already know, it specializes in {{type|Steel}}s. You'll want {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, and/or {{t|Fighting}}-type Pokémon with you. Steel-types [[Damage modification#Not very effective|resist]] attacks of almost every other type, and are completely immune to {{type|Poison}} moves. Also, most of the Pokémon in this Gym have high [[Defense]], so [[Special Attack|Special]] moves will do the most damage to them. {{p|Lucario}}'s {{m|Aura Sphere}} is one of the most dangerous moves to Steel-type Pokémon in the game right now.

To deal with the maze, first head to the easternmost elevator out of the set of four you'll find on 1F. Then, take the elevator south of you on 2F to reach the southeast area of 1F. The next one will take you back up to 2F. Then, use the moving lift hooked up to a wire to get across the ledge. Take the regular elevator there to reach 3F, where you will find more moving lifts to take you across the wires. First, use the moving lift north of you to reach the north area of 3F with two moving lifts side-by side. Take the northern lift and then keep following the path that will take you back down to 2F. Another elevator will take you to the northern area of the 1F. There, an elevator with a red outline will take you up to 4F where [[Byron]], the Gym Leader and the father of [[Oreburgh City]] Gym Leader [[Roark]] is.

Byron starts by sending out {{p|Magneton}}, whose weak Sp. Defense makes it vulnerable to moves like {{m|Flamethrower}}. Also, a Ground-type move like {{m|Earthquake}} could easily take it out in one hit due to its Steel/{{t|Electric}} typing. Beware of {{m|Flash Cannon}} if your Earthquake user is part {{type|Rock}}. {{m|Metal Sound}} will harshly lower your Pokémon's Special Defense, causing {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Tri Attack}}, and Flash Cannon to do even more damage, so be careful. With Magneton out of your way, Byron sends in his {{p|Steelix}}. It's best to use Special attacks on it because of its high Defense stat. It will dispose of Fire-types with Earthquake unless you have a Fire-type strong and fast enough to take it out in one hit. It also uses {{m|Ice Fang}}, which {{p|Torterra}} has a 4× weakness to. {{m|Sandstorm}} powers up Ground-type moves, so use that to your advantage if you can. Don't worry too much about Steelix knowing Flash Cannon, as its Special Attack isn't the best. The last Pokémon you'll face is {{p|Bastiodon}}, which is high-leveled but can easily be defeated by a powerful Fighting- or Ground-type attack due to it's type combo of Rock/Steel. Be sure to take it out in one hit (which isn't too hard), or your Pokémon will be on the receiving end of {{m|Metal Burst}}, which does 1.5 times the damage your previous attack did to Bastiodon. {{m|Stone Edge}} poses a threat to Fire-types, and {{m|Iron Defense}} will sharply raise Bastiodon's already high Defense stat. {{m|Taunt}} will only allow your Pokémon to use attacking moves, which shouldn't be much of a concern. Get Bastiodon out of your way as quickly as possible, and you'll have saved your team some pain and earned yourself the {{badge|Mine}} without too much trouble!

Once you defeat Byron, he will give you the Mine Badge, which causes all traded Pokémon up to Level 70 obey you without question and allows for {{m|Strength}} to be used outside of battle. He'll also give you {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, a Steel-type Special attack that occasionally lowers the enemy's Special Defense stat.

==Canalave City==
When you step out the door, your rival {{ga|Barry}} will be there waiting for you. After congratulating you on getting the Mine Badge he asks you to come with him to the Canalave Library. Meet him there, then head in the building and go up to the 3F. It turns out that [[Professor Rowan]] is there with his assistant {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}} and wanted you to be part of this conversation. Rowan explains that during his exploration of Pokémon evolution, he learned of the [[Lake guardians]] that might shed some light on the mystery of evolution he is trying to solve. He is therefore going to investigate the lakes where these three guardians live, and while he is going with his assistant to [[Lake Verity]], you will go to [[Lake Valor]], and Barry is going to [[Lake Acuity]]. Just then a tremor goes off, and you'll learn there was an explosion at Lake Valor, and so the group then separates to head to each of their destinations. First you will need to finish your assignment at Lake Valor to progress the game, but since you now have six badges you can backtrack for items you couldn't get before in places such as the basement at [[Oreburgh Gate]] since you now have Strength. See [[Appendix:Platinum walkthrough/Section 4#Oreburgh Gate Basement|this section]] for more details.

==Lake Valor (First visit)==

Turns out [[Team Galactic]] is responsible for the tremors due to using a large bomb to dry out the lake to find the area where {{p|Azelf}} sleeps. You won't be able to find any wild Pokémon while the lake is in this condition. Time to face some Galactic Grunts.

Once you get past them and enter the cave, you'll find it is too late, Azelf has been taken by Team Galactic and instead you will have to face the leader of this unit, Commander Saturn.

Saturn's Golbat can easily be knocked out with an {{t|Electric}} or {{type|Rock}} move. His Bronzor should be no problem with a Fire-type special move just like in the Canalave Gym. His star Pokémon is a {{p|Toxicroak}}. It takes a 4× weakness to a {{type|Psychic}}. If you do use a Psychic-type make sure it is gifted in speed along with having a good move like {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Alakazam}} since a slower Psychic-type like {{p|Gardevoir}} can't handle Toxicroak's {{m|Faint Attack}}, a {{type|Dark}} move. A {{type|Flying}} type can also handle Toxicroak.

After the battle Saturn will gloat how pointless it is to stand up to Team Galactic and mentions that Commander Mars should have caught the guardian at Lake Verity by now before leaving. It is time to head to Lake Verity, so make sure to have your team ready before flying back to [[Twinleaf Town]] and then heading to Lake Verity.

When you arrive you'll find Rowan holding off one of the grunts while Lucas/Dawn is up ahead facing Mars and needs your help. After going through two [[Double Battle]]s you will face off against Mars who wishes to get back at you for screwing up her previous mission at the [[Valley Windworks]].

Her team is about the same as Saturn's team, but with the difference of {{p|Purugly}} instead of Toxicroak. Since your Fighting-type diversity has greatly improved since last time it shouldn't have been hard to have found a Fighting-type to use against her to defeat Purugly. Be careful since it is fast and can put you asleep with {{m|Hypnosis}}. After the battle, despite fretting about losing again, Mars is satisfied with having captured {{p|Mesprit}}. She also deduces that Saturn's operation of catching Azelf it made it easier to catch Mesprit due to it sensing that Azelf is in danger and made the cave appear to head out. Mars then leaves with the warning of the power they are about to possess.

After Professor Rowan is up to speed on what happened at Lake Valor, he decides to send you to Lake Acuity in the far north where Barry is, believing that Barry may be in danger due to Team Galactic going there. It is time to head to {{rt|211|Sinnoh}} which is east of [[Eterna City]] or west of Celestic Town.

==Route 211==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 211 Pt.png|thumb|350px|Route 211]]
There is nothing of value here now, except going into Mt. Coronet's north area. However, you can visit this place earlier in the game if you wish when you first get to Eterna City for the West side of this route or Celestic Town for the East side and find basic stuff here.

You can now continue to Route 202 after.

==Route 202==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 202 Pt.png|thumb|right|200px|Route 202]]

After the demonstration on how to catch a Pokémon, {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} will give you 5 [[Poké Ball]]s to get you started. Go further along the route, it's pretty straightforward. You can use the ledges to escape the grass if you need to heal, and after fighting through 3 {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, keep going west to find a [[Potion]] in a patch of grass. After this, head north to reach [[Jubilife City]].

Upon entrance to Jubilife, you will notice that it is a much larger town that either [[Twinleaf town|Twinleaf]] or Sandgem. As soon as you walk into Jubilife City, Dawn/Lucas will come up to you and talk to you for a while. Dawn/Lucas will then take you up the main street for a while, until you see [[Looker]] hiding behind a lamp post between the [[Pokémon Center]] and the Trainer's School. Looker will then talk to you for a short time. After that he will give you the [[Vs. Recorder]] and be on his way.

====Trainer's School====
One of the first things you should do in Jubilife is visit the Pokémon Trainer's School. Inside the school will be your rival! Go up to talk to him, and deliver the parcel from his mom. Your rival notices that there are two town maps, so he gives you one of them. Your rival leaves promptly after this. Inside the school, you can study the blackboard to learn about [[status condition]]s, or you can battle the two Trainers in the northeast corner of the room. There is also an [[X Attack]] hidden among some of the books on the west side.

Once you leave the Trainer's School and start heading north, a man will interrupt you and tell you about a promotion for the [[Pokétch]]. If you find the three clowns and receive all the coupons, you will be given a free Pokétch!

; Clown 1
: Can be found in the area of the [[Poké Mart]].
: Question: "Does a Pokémon grow by defeating others and gaining EXP Points?"
: The answer to this clown's question is "Yes".
; Clown 2
: This one is standing in front of the Pokétch Company in the northwest corner of town.
: Question: "Just like Pokémon types, do the moves also have types?"
: The answer to this clown's question is "Yes".
; Clown 3
: This clown is blocking the entrance to the [[Jubilife TV]] station.
: Question: "Can a Pokémon hold an item?"
: The answer to this clown's question is "Yes".

Next, it is a good idea to head west to {{rt|218|Sinnoh}} to obtain the [[Old Rod]] from a [[Fisherman]]. That's the only thing you'll find there for now, until you can use {{m|Surf}}. After you have obtained the coupons, return to the man and receive your Pokétch. After you are finished exploring Jubilife City, your next destination is {{rt|203|Sinnoh}}.

Be prepared for a rival battle, though, so heal up your Pokémon at the [[Pokémon Center]] before continuing and train if necessary.

KyraMara: changing Lucas to {{ga|Lucas}} to remove the redirect.

==Starting the game==

[[File:Player Bedroom DPPt.png|thumb|left|150px|The player's room]]
[[File:Diamond Pearl Rowan.png|thumb|right|100px|Professor Rowan]]
The game loads with [[Giratina]] being shown on the bottom title screen. Press Start, A, or tap the screen to go to the main menu, then start a new game. You will be greeted by [[Professor Rowan]], who will ask if you need advice about playing the game.

Afterward, Rowan will ask you about yourself. Here, choose your gender, name, and the name of {{ga|Barry|your rival}}. None of these can be changed later on, so be sure you're happy with each choice before continuing to the next one.

After choosing your rival's name, you will be brought to your house in [[Twinleaf Town]].

==Twinleaf Town==
[[File:Twinleaf Town Pt.png|right|thumb|200px|Twinleaf Town]]
{{sign|DPcitymap|header}}
{{sign|DPcitymap|map| Twinleaf Town }}
{{sign|DPcitymap|title| Twinleaf Town }}
{{sign|DPcitymap| Fresh and Free! }}
{{sign|DPcitymap|footer}}
The game starts with you at the TV, watching the tail end of a show featuring [[Professor Rowan]]. As you try to move, you will be greeted by your [[rival]], who will briefly be distracted by your [[PC]], and will then tell you to meet him outside as he dashes off. Follow him downstairs, where you'll have a short conversation with your [[Johanna|mom]]. Just before you leave, your mom will tell you to stay away from the [[tall grass]].

Twinleaf Town is cold, with patches of {{Weather|snow}} on the ground. As you explore the town, be sure to visit the house in the north-west corner of the town. Here, your rival will bump into you as you try to enter. He'll head back in immediately, however, because he forgot something. Head upstairs and your rival will ask you to meet him at {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}. Leave his house and head north. Soon, you'll find yourself on Route 201.

==Route 201==
[[File:Sinnoh Route 201 Pt.png|right|thumb|300px|Route 201]]
[[Lake Verity]] is to the west, while [[Sandgem Town]] is to the east. As you go north, you meet up with your rival for a chat. He suggests that the two of you go to [[Sandgem Town]] to get Pokémon from Professor Rowan. When you point out you shouldn't go into the tall grass, he naively suggests running through the tall grass so fast that wild Pokémon have no chance to jump out at you (running through tall grass actually increases the chance that you'll be attacked by a wild Pokémon). Just as he's about to enter the grass, an old man shouts at him to halt.

The man is Professor Rowan, and he is not happy! He tells you two not to go to tall grass, then quizzes you about your love for Pokémon; eventually {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} will appear, and the professor will ask you to pick your very first Pokémon.

{{p|Turtwig}} has high HP, Attack, and Defense, and its final evolution gains {{t|Ground}} as a secondary type; few moves are [[Damage#Super_effective|super effective]] or [[Damage#Not_very_effective|not very effective]] against this combination. Its Grass/Ground typing will be effective in more [[Gym]]s than Piplup, but in fewer than Chimchar.

{{p|Chimchar}} has high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed. Its second evolution gains the {{t|Fighting}} type, a combination that means its attacks will be very effective against the most Gyms out of the three choices, not to mention the Pokémon League. However, its very low Defense and Special Defense mean it will be vulnerable even to types it resists.

{{p|Piplup}} is similar to Turtwig; it has high Defense and Special Attack, and its final form gains {{t|Steel}} as the secondary type. This combination will resist many different move types, though {{t|Fire}}-type moves will become normally effective. Piplup will have a harder time with Gyms, but its wide range of resistances combined with its high Defense allow it to take quite the pounding.

Once you made your choice, in true [[Rival]] fashion, Barry will pick the one that has the type advantage over your choice. Rowan will point out that these Pokémon are inexperienced with the world and need you to help them grow before he and Lucas/Dawn return to Sandgem Town. Barry will then challenge you to an immediate battle. You don't have to win this battle, but winning awards [[Experience]] points for your new starter, as well as a small amount of spending money.

After the battle you will immediately go home.

==Twinleaf Town==
Back at home, your mom is happy that you and Barry met Professor Rowan, since he stopped you from being attacked by wild Pokémon. She then asks for you to thank him properly in Sandgem Town and gives you the ever-useful [[Running Shoes]].

[[File:Lake Verity Pt.png|right|thumb|200px]]
After arriving back on Route 201, you'll meet up with {{ga|Barry}} again. He reveals that he's also planning to go to [[Sandgem Town]], and he asks you to come with him to [[Lake Verity]] first to find and catch the rumored legendary Pokémon to show to Professor Rowan.

Once at Lake Verity you will see [[Cyrus]], the leader of [[Team Galactic]]. He boasts to the legendary Pokémon of the lake that he will one day take control of Time and Space, then leaves the scene. When Barry is ready to press forward, you will hear this [[Mesprit (Pokémon)|legendary Pokémon]], and he is ready to catch it only to realize that neither of you have any [[Poké Ball]]s to catch it with. Barry then recalls that Professor Rowan said to come to him if they needed anything, so Barry then departs for Sandgem Town. With nothing more to do here, follow him south and then east along Route 201.

==Route 201==
Once past Verity Lakefront, you are free to explore the tall grass, though you can't catch any wild Pokémon yet. Talk to the [[Poké Mart]] employee near the entrance to Sandgem Town to receive a free [[Potion]], then head east to reach the town.

==Sandgem Town==
[[File:Sandgem Town Pt.png|thumb|200px|Sandgem Town]]
Once you arrive, Lucas/Dawn are waiting to escort you inside Rowan's laboratory. Just as you're about to enter, Barry comes rushing out, commenting that Rowan is not as scary as he appears to be, before he dashes off. Once inside, the Professor takes a look at your Pokémon and approvingly allows you to keep it. Seeing the growing bond between you and your Pokémon, the Professor gives you a [[Pokédex]] and requests that you travel across Sinnoh and record data on the various Pokémon you meet.

Outside the lab, Rowan gives you {{TM|27|Return}}. Lucas/Dawn will show you around town, then suggest that you talk with your mom about what you've so quickly agreed to do. Before you go, you may want to head south of Sandgem to Route 219 and grab the Antidote waiting there, heal up your Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Center]], and maybe even buy some [[Poké Ball]]s in the [[Poké Mart]] by speaking to the cashier. As far as Pokémon to catch, {{p|Bidoof}} are very versatile and can learn 6 out of 8 of the [[Hidden Machine]]s that are necessary for navigating the whole of Sinnoh, while {{p|Starly}} are a solid addition to any team (though they will not be very useful in the first [[Gym]]).

Finally, head west out of Sandgem and use the ledges to return to Twinleaf.

==Twinleaf Town==
Enter your house, where your mom agrees that you should go on this adventure, and gives you a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Journal}} to record it. Barry's mother shows up looking for her son, and asks you to give him a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Parcel}}, suggesting that Barry is likely in Jubilife City by now.

Now, return to Sandgem.

KyraMara: Oak's -> Oak's Parcel

==Viridian City==
[[File:Viridian City RBY.png|thumb|right|Viridian City]]

[[Viridian City]] is a small city, and the first one you reach with a Pokémon Gym. However, the mysterious [[Gym Leader]] is out of town, and the Gym has been closed indefinitely.

===Pokémon Center===
The first building you'll reach is the [[Pokémon Center]]. This Pokémon hospital will heal your team to full health and normal status, and Trainers are free to use the PC in the corner. In addition to accessing your item storage, these PCs can also access your Pokémon storage. Since you can only carry six with you at once, any others are immediately transferred to storage upon capture. It is typically a good idea to heal up and save your progress whenever you enter a Pokémon Center.

===Poké Mart===
Behind the Pokémon Center is the local [[Poké Mart]]. These stores offer a variety of {{ball|Poké}}s, [[Potion]]s, and other items. When you step inside, the cashier asks you to deliver {{key|I|Oak's Parcel|a parcel}} to [[Professor Oak]]. The cashier will not sell anything until the delivery is made.

===Pokémon Academy===
This school teaches young Pokémon Trainers about the basics of battle. If you inspect the blackboard in the front of the room, you can learn about the five {{DL|Status condition|Non-volatile status|status ailments}} that can affect a Pokémon.

===Oak's Lab===
When you deliver the parcel to the professor, {{ga|Blue|his grandson}} runs in and starts yelling about how much his Pokémon has grown. {{prof|Oak}} gives you both a [[Pokédex]], a high-tech Pokémon encyclopedia. This little machine will record all available data on the Pokémon you encounter, and will be complete when you catch a member of {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|every species}}. Visit your rival's sister [[Daisy Oak|Daisy]] before leaving town to get a [[Town Map]].

==Viridian City==
The old man that had blocked your way northward has had his coffee now. When you pass him, he tries to show you how to catch a Pokémon. It doesn't work though, and he runs off to buy more Poké Balls. Before heading north, detour to {{rt|22|Kanto}} in order to battle {{ga|Blue|your rival}} and catch some new Pokémon.

==Route 22==
{{rt|22|Kanto}} is a short route that runs west of {{ci|Viridian}}. The path is a dead-end right now, but you can battle {{ga|Blue|your rival}} and hunt for new Pokémon here.

Keep in mind that your rival's team later in the game is dependent upon the outcome of this battle along with the previous one.

If you want your rival's Eevee to evolve into a [[Water (type)|Water type]], you had to have lost the first battle and either lose or skip this battle. If you want your rival's Eevee to evolve into a [[Fire (type)|Fire type]], then win this battle if you lost the first one or either lose or skip this battle if you won the first one.

A '''Bug Catcher''' (Japanese: '''むしとりしょうねん''' ''Bug Catcher Boy'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation I]] games. They are generally depicted as little boys in hats, carrying nets and what appears to be their lunchboxes, or containers to keep caught bugs in, held by a strap after [[Generation II]]. Most Bug Catchers have been considered just hobbyists. Some Bug Catchers move around areas, and don't always stay in the same place each day. Experienced Bug Catchers may become {{tc|Bug Maniac}}s.

Bug Catchers are usually one of the first Trainer classes encountered during the course of the games' storylines, mostly appearing on earlier [[route]]s. In [[Generation I]], Bug Catchers are the first Trainer class that the player encounters. They first appear in [[Viridian Forest]], while the last one is on {{rt|9|Kanto}}. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Bug Catchers appear again on the [[Sevii Islands]], in the [[Pattern Bush]]. In [[Generation II]], Bug Catchers appear on {{rt|30|Johto}}, but they are not the first Trainer class seen in the game, and are actually more uncommon in this Generation than any other in which they appear. In [[Generation III]], there are a few Bug Catchers, appearing between {{rt|102|Hoenn}}, through {{rt|119|Hoenn}}. The number of Bug Catchers in Generation III surpasses each other generation except the first. In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, Bug Catchers don't appear until {{rt|204|Sinnoh}}, after the player defeats the first Gym Leader, which is unusually late in the game. There are only four Bug Catchers, most of them appearing in the [[Eterna Forest]]. There are no Bug Catchers in the [[Unova]], [[Kalos]] and [[Alola]] regions.

In Pokémon Stadium, they are referred to as '''Bug Boys'''.

[[File:Samurai.png|thumb|220px|[[Samurai]]]]
[[Samurai]] is a [[character of the day]] who lives in [[Viridian Forest]] and dresses up in samurai armor. Like Bug Catchers, he specializes in {{type|Bug}} Pokémon and has a bug-catching net. His sole appearance was in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]''.

In ''[[EP134|Charizard's Burning Ambitions]]'', {{TRT}}'s [[Team Rocket's mechas|Gigantic Mistake mecha]] is modeled after a Bug Catcher.

In ''[[AG036|The Spheal of Approval]]'', a boy named {{OBP|Marius|AG036}} strongly resembled the Bug Catchers in the game, but did not own any Bug-type Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* Bug Catcher's sprite from the main series [[Generation II]] games resembles the class' artwork from Pokemon Yellow.
* The first Bug Catchers battled in all [[Generation III]] games are named Rick.
* In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, a show on the <sc>Variety</sc> channel mentions that {{EF|Aaron}} used to be a Bug Catcher and a [[Gym Leader]] before joining the [[Elite Four]].
* A Bug Catcher in the {{gdis|Battle Tower|II|Johto Battle Tower}} is named Tajiri; this could be possibly a reference to the creator of the Pokémon series, [[Satoshi Tajiri]], who liked bug-catching as a child.
* In Pokémon Emerald, Bug Catcher Davis on {{rt|123|Hoenn}} uses the overworld sprite of a {{tc|Youngster}}.
