Lucairo123: /* Intro */

Hi! I am a 14 year old grl who loves pokémon and animals. The misspelling of lucario in my username is purposefull as people are less likely to have taken it.I have the games Emerald ,Diamond,Pearl ad Heartgold . Diamond and Pearl do not work.my old DS makes DS cartidges slowly stop working (don't ask me why) but I now have a new DSi to play Heartgold on.I got Pearl when Diamond stoppd working. In emerald I got to the elite four but never beat them (they seem impossible). In Pearl I defeated them.In Heartgold I also did and have all eight Kanto badges.I am curently trying to level up my pokemon more in prepartion for my battle with red.I am also catching legendaries.i caught ho-oh and articuno and accidentally defeated moltres. I have only ever seen two shiny pokémon,a golbat in emerald who I met at victory road and did not manage to catch and the red gyrados in Heartgold which i caught. my favorite pokemon is lucairo(obviously )but i also love anything cutr. i am also known as lucairo123 in ruesape where i am a level 41 member. i am looking forward to Generation V and to continue contributing to this site. By the way ,please don't lower your expectations of me because I'm a kid.I know some of the articles I wrote suck but I believe I'm capable of doing great things!

The '''Mystery Zone''' (Japanese: '''なぞのばしょ''' ''Mystery Place''{{sup|DPPt}}, '''----'''{{sup|HGSS}}) is an area in the [[Generation IV]] games that serves as "filler space" between normally accessible outdoor and indoor areas. It exists all around Sinnoh, to facilitate the precise entry into [[the Underground]], which has tunnels that travel under areas where no routes or cities exist.

==Geography==
The geography is made predominantly of trees, water, or blank void space. The area itself is named "Mystery Zone", with the location header popping up to display this name when the area is entered. No Pokémon or items are found in the Mystery Zone.

===Access===
The Mystery Zone is normally inaccessible, but can be entered by means of [[tweaking]] and the [[surf glitch]] and by using the walk through walls cheat on the [[action replay]]

==Music==
In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the music is a slightly off-key version of the theme of [[Route]]s {{rtn|206}}, {{rtn|207}}, {{rtn|208}}, {{rtn|220}} and {{rtn|221}}; in {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the background music is the theme of {{rt|29}}. Sometimes, the background music used in [[the Underground]] may also be played.

==Glitches caused==
In Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, the menu cannot be opened, and the touchscreen menu cannot be used, however a registered [[key item]] can be used to refresh the graphics in the area at any time.

When walking through mountainous terrain in the Mystery Zone, the player may become hidden by the terrain. The screen may also appear to zoom in as one enters the zone. Walking too far into the Mystery Zone will cause a [[game freeze]].

By using the Mystery Zone, the on-field [[weather conditions]] can be tricked into not loading or loading incorrectly.

'''Fling''' (Japanese: '''なげつける''' ''Throw'') is a damage-dealing {{type2|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

==Effect==
The power of Fling is determined by the held item. The move will fail if the user has no held item, or if the item is not one listed below. After using Fling, the item disappears--this can be problematic if Fling throws an item that can only be obtained once.

The power of Fling is calculated as:

If the user hits its opponent with a Berry, the effect of the Berry will be activated. Additionally, some items will cause other effects when used with Fling:

|{{status|Poison|Badly poisons}} the target
|-

|}

Fling will fail if used by an {{p|Arceus}} holding a Plate or a {{p|Giratina}} holding the Griseous Orb, though neither Pokémon can normally have this move. It will also fail if used when the Pokémon is holding any type of Poké Ball.

'''Spoink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バネブー''' ''Baneboo'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Grumpig}} starting at [[level]] 32.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Spoink is a gray-colored, piglike Pokémon with dark, circular eyes, stubby arms, a large gray nose, and small ears. Spoink is most notable in that it leads an unusually fragile existence. It possesses no hind legs and motion is achieved by bouncing on its spring like tail. However, the bouncing serves a far more vital function in that it keeps its heart beating; if it's stopped from bouncing, it'll go into cardiac arrest and die. It also wears a pearl produced by a {{p|Clamperl}} on top of its head to amplify its psychic powers. However, if it loses the pearl, it begins to weaken, so Spoink is in constant danger from either ceasing to bounce or losing its pearl.

====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
The pearl on Spoink's head magnifies its psychic powers. It is able to constantly bounce, even while sleeping, which is imperative to its existence. This is due to the previously mentioned risk of cardiac arrest. Spoink was also one of the few Pokémon originally able to use the move {{m|Bounce}}, though this move now can be used by a decent quantity of Pokémon.

===Behavior===
Spoink are constantly on the search for a bigger pearl, which will most likely strengthen its psychic powers when it does so. Due to this factor, Spoink are known to steal round objects that it may confuse for a pearl. They seem to be kleptomaniac Pokémon.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Spoink are mostly found on rocky mountains or on route paths. In the games, Spoink is found at the {{l|jagged pass}}.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

They seem to love mushrooms that grow underground. How they manage to get at them while bouncing is unknown. However, they also seem to be sometimes found with the [[Tanga Berry]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Spoinkanime.jpg|right|thumb|[[Spoink (anime)|A Spoink]] without a pearl on its head.]]
{{an|Spoink}} first appeared in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. The Bounce Pokémon had lost its pearl and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} helped find the missing pearl. Spoink happened to be a kleptomaniac for anything round (especially round Pokémon) when it didn't have its pearl.

The same Spoink appeared again in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]'', where it loses its pearl once again. Ash and friends go searching for another pearl, but [[Team Rocket]] stole the only {{p|Clamperl}} that had one.

{{Ash}} used a Spoink in the first leg of the Pokémon Triathlon ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.

==Trivia==
* Despite saying that it would die if it stopped bouncing, it has been seen not bouncing many times in the anime.
* Spoink's cry is very similar to that of a frog.
* The pearl on Spoink's head darkened in its Generation IV sprites.
* Oddly, a shiny Spoink's pearl is gray, but a shiny {{p|Clamperl}}'s pearl is gold.
===Origin===
It is possible the inspiration for Spoink came from the Biblical phrase {{wp|Pearls Before Swine|"do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet."}} The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who would not appreciate the teachings. Spoink and {{p|Grumpig}} appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their psychic powers. It is also possible that Spoink was a literal interpretation for a spring pig. It is obviously based off a {{wp|pig}}.

====Name origin====
Spoink's name is possibly a combination of ''{{wp|Spring (device)|spring}}'' and ''oink'', the sound a pig makes.

''Baneboo'' is probably derived from 発条 ''bane'', spring, and ブーブー ''būbū'', the sound of grumbling or oinking. The end of its name may also be a shortening of 豚 ''buta'', pig.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Spoink
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Spoink
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 피그점프 ''Pigjump''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 跳跳豬 ''Tiào Tiào Zhū'' - "Springing pig".

==Trivia==
* At 6.6 lbs, Jumpluff is the lightest Pokémon that has undergone two evolutions.
* Jumpluff is one of ten non-{{t|Bug}}, {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon that cannot learn {{m|Fly}}.
* Jumpluff is the only non-[[starter Pokémon|starter]] {{type2|Grass}} that has undergone two evolutions and does not use an [[evolutionary stone]] to undergo the second one.
*In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], the shadows of Jumpluff's spores are square. In addition, the spores are always facing the same way relative to the camera, and as such, the player is the only able to see one side of them.
* Jumpluff's Silver Pokédex entry states that it uses spores to produce offspring, despite the fact that Pokémon breed to produce eggs.
* Jumpluff's cotton spores get bigger in the back sprites throughout the generations.
* Jumpluff can become the fastest Pokémon, however only in Sunny Day conditions and with the Chlorophyll ability.
* Jumpluff is the only Pokémon introduced in Generation II that's name starts with the letter J.
===Origin===
Jumpluff appears to be based on the final stage in the lifespan of a {{wp|dandelion}}. Its movements in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] gives it a look of a {{wp|cheerleader}}.

====Name origin====
Jumpluff's name is a combination of ''jump'' and ''fluff''. It could also be a corruption of the word plush, meaning a soft object or an object made of felt. The names of all stages of its evolutionary line are likely based on the phrase, "Just a hop, skip, and a jump away". Its Japanese name is based on 綿 ''wata'', cotton and 根っ子 ''nekko'', root.

Lucairo123: /* Characteristics of moves */

[[File:DPVolttackleani.gif|thumb|right|200px|{{p|Pikachu}} using {{m|Volt Tackle}} against {{p|Staravia}}]]

A '''move''' ('''わざ''' ''move''), also known as an ''attack'' or ''technique'', is what Pokémon have primarily used in battle ever since the [[Generation I]] games. In battle, a Pokémon uses one move each turn. Some moves (including those learned by [[HM|Hidden Machine]]) can be used outside of battle as well, usually for the purpose of removing obstacles or exploring new areas.

==In the games==
===Characteristics of moves===
A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time, which are drawn from a pool of 491 total moves. No single Pokémon has access to each move, however; all 495  Pokémon has a given movelist with a limited amount of moves that relate to its type and the concept of the species. The amount of moves in each movelist varies between species: some Pokémon, such as {{p|Ditto}} and {{p|Unown}}, only have one move to learn, while {{p|Mew}} can learn 112 moves as of Generation IV and {{p|smeargle}} can learn any move via {{m|sketch}}. Sometimes, even, Pokémon's movelists vary between [[evolution]]ary relatives. This often is tied to a secondary [[elemental type|type]] gained or lost on evolution, but can also provide incentive to prevent a Pokémon's evolution to a higher stage.

Pokémon are limited in the way that they may use their moves in battle. The amount of times they can use each move is restricted by the move's [[power points]]. Power points vary from move to move, but typically stronger moves have fewer power points than weaker moves. The amount of power points for each move may be altered by items such as {{DL|Vitamin|PP Up}}. The only move that is not affected by power points is {{m|Struggle}}.

The strength of a move is measured by its [[Power]], and other factors such as [[Accuracy]] affect whether it does damage or not. Some moves have additional effects that cause [[status ailment]]s on the target, and some do no damage at all. Moves that do not explicitly cause harm to their target are known as [[status move]]s; the remaining moves are divided into [[physical move|physical]] and [[special move]]s depending on the individual move's characteristics; the category of the move determines whether the move's power relies on the {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}} stat. It is important to note that prior to [[Generation IV]], the move's category was dependent on the move's elemental type, rather than a distinct variable.

===Learning and unlearning===
Since {{game|Red and Green|s}}, there have been three main methods of acquiring moves on a Pokémon: by [[Experience|leveling up]], by use of [[TM|Technical Machines]] and by use of Hidden Machines. [[Generation II]] added two further methods: [[egg moves]] learned through {{pkmn|breeding}}, and moves learned by a non-player character [[move tutor]]. These two newest methods have been part of all further Pokémon handheld games.

A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time. In order to learn new moves once four have been learned, it must forget one old move for every new move. Some moves cannot be forgotten naturally, such as moves learned by HM. To remove these, a Trainer must incorporate the help of a [[move deleter]]. Forgotten moves can be relearned thanks to the [[move relearner]].

===Unique moves===
Some Pokémon have moves specific to themselves or their evolutionary line. These unique moves are known as [[signature move]]s. Some of these moves are powerful moves that only certain legendary Pokémon can learn, but other moves serve as "gimmicks" for [[novelty Pokémon]]. One example is {{p|Smeargle}}'s {{m|Sketch}}, which allows it to learn almost every conceivable move.

==In the anime==
[[File:MewtwoBarrier.png|thumb|right|250px|{{an|Mewtwo}} using {{m|Barrier}}]]
Moves in the anime often appear different to how they are depicted in the games. [[Ash's Pikachu]] often uses {{m|Agility}} as a physical attacking move, rather than a move that merely raises {{stat|Speed}}. The almost limitless nature of the anime lends itself to many more [[differences between the games and anime]] in relation to Pokémon's moves. Pokémon are able to use many more moves [[field move (main series)|outside of battle]], such as {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s {{m|Vine Whip}}. In battle, moves may used in unorthodox manners, especially to overcome type disadvantage—perhaps best exampled with the battle between Ash's Pikachu and Blaine's Rhydon. Invented, {{DL|Moves not in the Pokémon games|In the anime|anime-exclusive moves}} have existed since the third episode, and custom-made moves have been prevalent in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.

The process in which moves are learned is changed slightly; TMs and HMs do not seem to exist, and the concept of move tutors has not been mentioned in any episode. Consequently, all moves learned by anime Pokémon appear to have been learned by level-up, including special egg moves such as {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

==Trivia==
* During an in-game [[double battle]], after a move is issued, if that Pokémon levels up before its in-battle turn and replaces the move currently awaiting execution with a new move, the new move will be used instead of the old one.
** Multiple turn moves such as {{m|Outrage}} will continue to be performed even if the move is deleted between turns. This can happen in both single and double battles.

Lucairo123: /* Intro */

Hi! I am a 14 year old grl who loves pokémon and animals. The misspelling of lucario in my username is purposefull as people are less likely to have taken it.I have the games Emerald ,Diamond,Pearl ad Heartgold . Diamond and Pearl do not work.my old DS makes DS cartidges slowly stop working (don't ask me why) but I now have a new DSi to play Heartgold on.I got Pearl when Diamond stoppd working. In emerald I got to the elite four but never beat them (they seem impossible). In Pearl I defeated them.In Heartgold I also did and have all eight Kanto badges.I am curently trying to level up my pokemon more in prepartion for my battle with red.I am also catching legendaries.i caught ho-oh and articuno and accidentally defeated moltres. I have only ever seen two shiny pokémon,a golbat in emerald who I met at victory road and did not manage to catch and the red gyrados in Heartgold which i caught. i am looking forward to Generation V and to continue contributing to this site. By the way ,please don't lower your expectations of me because I'm a kid.I know some of the articles I wrote suck but I believe I'm capable of doing great things!

Evolution

2010-04-23T19:49:47Z

Lucairo123: /* Two-evolution families */

[[Image:Evolution.gif|frame|right|{{p|Ivysaur}} evolves into {{p|Venusaur}}, depicted in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]]]]

During the course of a Pokémon's development, under certain circumstances specific to that Pokémon's species, it may '''evolve''' (Japanese: {{tt|進化|しんか}} ''shinka'') into a different Pokémon. This change is not merely physical, however, as Pokémon of a higher evolutionary stage have different (and usually more powerful) [[base stats]] than their predecessors, may have different [[move]]s that can be learned, and sometimes change their [[Elemental types|type]]s, though usually at least one of the types of the previous form is preserved. Other statistics, such as [[nature]] and [[EVs]], as well as {{pkmn2|shiny|alternate coloration}}, are preserved.

[[Professor Rowan]] is the leading expert in Pokémon evolution. According to his research, over 90% of all Pokémon are connected to at least one other through evolution. Rowan is currently investigating whether evolution is a form of maturity in Pokémon, and looking at the implications this process has on legendary Pokémon, which don't evolve.

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

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

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

====Two-evolution families====
{{main|:category:Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line|Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line}}
Perhaps the most well-known types of evolution families are those that feature two separate evolutionary events in the Pokémon's development. Indeed, this type of evolution family is what all of the [[starter Pokémon]] in the [[main series]] are a part of, including {{p|Pikachu}} ahlough in {{game|yellow}} ,the game it was the starter for {{p|pichu}} did not yet exsist and it could not be evovled into {{p|raichu}}. An example of this type of evolution family is below.

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

====Pokémon that do not evolve====
{{main|List of Pokémon that do not evolve}}
The least common type of evolution family, of course, is that in which no evolutionary event takes place, meaning that it is made up of only one member. Many of the Pokémon that have no evolutionary event are, of course, [[legendary Pokémon]]. However, there are still 42 other Pokémon that do not evolve. Below is a list of all non-legendary Pokémon that do not evolve.

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

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

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

A listing of the stat focuses is below.

==Methods of evolution==
{{main|Methods of evolution}}
The various triggers for a Pokémon's evolution are almost as varied as the Pokémon themselves. The most common of them is evolution by leveling up at or above a certain level. Other methods include leveling up when [[happiness]] has reached a high level, [[trade|trading]] the Pokémon, trading the Pokémon [[evolution-inducing held item|holding an item]], leveling up holding an item, or even using an [[evolutionary stone]] on it. Additionally, holding an [[Everstone]] prevents a Pokémon from evolving.

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

Some Pokémon have different evolutions depending on their gender. Usually, only one gender of the species will evolve, and the other will remain at the unevolved form. For example, only female {{p|Combee}} can evolve into {{p|Vespiquen}}; male Combee cannot evolve at all.

==In the anime==
[[File:Branched evolution.png|thumb|200px|right|Gloom's evolutionary line as shown in the anime]]
In the anime, evolution happens in much the same way as it does in the games; though [[level]]-based evolution nor [[trade]]-based evolutions do not occur using those methods, there are similarities in the way they come about. For example, [[Misty]]'s {{p|Poliwhirl}} evolved into {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} because it found {{Ash}}'s {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} and was holding it when Misty sent it out, while in the games it is required that Poliwhirl be traded while holding the King's Rock for the evolution to take place. When a {{p|Beedrill}} attacked Ash's {{p|Metapod}}, it caused a crack to appear on its shell, which {{AP|Butterfree}} came out of.

Additionally, a difference can be noted in the fact that Pokémon evolve ''during'' a battle, as opposed to after it. There are also several instances of an evolutionary trigger being incorrect, such as ''[[EP043|March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'' where several {{p|Exeggcute}} evolve into {{p|Exeggutor}} without the aid of a {{evostone|Leaf Stone}} (Although it should be noted that the episode in question implies that there was radiation emitted by Leaf Stones buried underground that caused the evolution to be triggered). Pokémon may also evolve when they are needed to, for an extra boost of power, instead of after a set amount of training, such as when Ash's {{p|Charmeleon}} evolved into {{AP|Charizard}}. In addition, Pokémon can sometimes choose not to evolve, even if they evolve by a 'natural' method such as leveling up. It appears that evolution has emotional implications for Pokémon - some Pokémon, such as Team Rocket's {{MTR}}, dislike their evolved forms, while others such as Ash's {{AP|Pikachu}} simply want to prove they can be powerful without evolving. Conversely, when Pokémon do evolve, this can often be linked with an experience that causes them to mature emotionally or deal with an emotional issue, such as when the {{p|Poochyena}} in ''[[AG011|A Bite to Remember]]'' evolved, or the {{p|Paras}} in ''[[EP044|The Problem With Paras]]''. Poochyena, for some reason, had an aversion to using the move {{m|Bite}}, while Paras was extremely timid and weak in battle. Both of them evolved shortly after overcoming these issues.

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

==In the TCG==
{{main|Evolution (TCG)}}
Evolution in the TCG functions similarly in many aspects to that of the games, however, there is no different requirement that needs to be met depending on the Pokémon species to be evolved to move on to the next stage.

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

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

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

However, this does not necessarily mean that evolution in real-world terms does not exist in the Pokémon world; the existence of "extinct" Pokémon backs this up, or also in the alternately colored Pokémon of the Orange Archipelago.

Oddish looks like a blue plant bulb with round feet, beady red eyes, and five leaves sprouting from its head.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Oddsh, like many other {{type2|Grass}}s, can utilize the [[sun#Intense sunlight|sun]] to become faster in sunlight. Oddish is also able to learn spore-based moves like {{m|PoisonPowder}} and {{m|Sleep Powder}}, and restore health in moonlight.
===Behavior===
Oddish searches for fertile, nutrient-rich soil, then plants itself. During the daytime, while it is planted, its feet are thought to change shape and become similar to the roots of trees. Oddish grows by absorbing moonlight, and the more fertile the soil, the glossier its leaves become. As only its leaves are exposed aboveground when it is buried into the soil, in order to avoid detection by enemies, it is said to look like a clump of weeds. It is also said to scream loudly if anyone tries to yank it out. Oddish is nocturnal, and awakes upon being exposed to moonlight. Upon awakening, it roams about actively, walking nearly 1,000 feet and scattering its seeds to create more Oddishes.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Oddish live in grassy plains, and can also be found in tropical areas such as jungles and swamps, where the ground is rich in nutrients. They are very common, being native to [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], and even [[Sinnoh]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Oddish most likely {{m|Ingrain|absorb some nutrients}} from the ground when they are buried.

==In the anime==
[[File:Oddish anime.png|thumb|right|Two Oddish in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
An Oddish owned by {{jo|Mariah}} wanted to fly with its {{p|Hoppip}} friends in ''[[EP137|Foul Weather Friends]]'', even trying to color itself pink like a Hoppip. While it never flies, it still proves powerful enough to defeat [[Team Rocket]] on its own.

===Minor appearances===
Oddish are commonly found in the anime. Most of the time they play the victim and are usually being chased or attacked.

{{an|Misty}} attempts to catch an Oddish in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' despite not being a {{type2|Water}} because she thought it was cute. She is prevented from doing so by a {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. Misty later apologized to it for trying to catch it while in the Hidden Village.

[[James]]'s fiancée, [[Jessiebelle]], had an Oddish when she was a little girl, before it evolved into a Gloom and soon after, into a Vileplume.

Oddish is one of Pokémon in the [[Pichu Brothers]]' Possé.

An Oddish was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

An Oddish appeared in ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]'' at the ship’s Pokémon Center.

An Oddish appeared in ''[[AG143|The Saffron Con]]'' as a Pokémon owned by a Coordinator.

Oddish also appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.

An Oddish appeared in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''.

==Trivia==
*In [[Generation II]], [[Bill]]'s grandfather asks the player to bring him a ''round, '''green''' Pokémon that has leaves growing on its head'', which is obviously Oddish. However, in those games, and in subsequent generations, Oddish's body (unless it is {{shiny2}}) is blue. This is fixed in Heartgold and Soulsilver.
*Oddish is the only Pokémon so far to be revealed to have a scientific name: ''Oddium Wanderus''.
*In Pokémon Platinum, Oddish is the one of the few Pokémon not in the Sinnoh Pokédex, and not introduced in Generation IV, to have a new sprite. {{p|Muk}}, {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Ninetales}}, {{p|Primeape}}, and {{p|Registeel}} are the others.
===Origin===
Oddish is most likely based on a {{wp|mandrake (plant)|mandrake}}.
====Name origin====
Oddish's name is a combination of the words ''odd'' and the vegetable known as ''{{wp|radish}}'', although ''oddish'' is a word in itself, meaning somewhat odd. ''Nazonokusa'' may be taken to mean 謎の草, enigmatic grass.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Myrapla - Probably from ''mysteriös'' (mysterious) and ''plant''.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Mystherbe - From ''mystère'' (mystery) and ''herbe'' ({{wp|herb}}). The whole word sounds very similar to just ''mystère''.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 뚜벅쵸 ''Ttubakchyo''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 走路草 (Zou Lu Cao) - "Walking grass".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 行路草 (Xing Lu Cao) - "Walking grass" in Cantonese.

Hi! I am a 14 year old grl who loves pokémon and animals. The misspelling of lucario in my username is purposefull as people are less likely to have taken it.I have the games Emerald ,Diamond,Pearl ad Heartgold . Diamond and Pearl do not work.my old DS makes DS cartidges slowly stop working (don't ask me why) but I now have a new DSi to play Heartgold on.I got Pearl when Diamond stoppd working. In emerald I got to the elite four but never beat them (they seem impossible). In Pearl I defeated them.In Heartgold I also did and have six Kanto badges. I have only ever seen two shiny pokémon,a golbat in emerald who I met at victory road and did not manage to catch and the red gyrados in Heartgold which i caught. i am looking forward to Generation V and to continue contributing to this site. By the way ,please don't lower your expectations of me because I'm a kid.I know some of the articles I wrote suck but I believe I'm capable of doing great things!

* Gust is one of the four moves to have its type changed in [[Generation II]], the others being {{m|Karate Chop}}, {{m|Bite}}, and {{m|Sand-Attack}}. Coincidentally, they all were {{type2|Normal}} moves in [[Generation I]].

Lucairo123: /* Trivia */

[[Image:Regis.png|thumb|right|250px|Regice, Registeel and Regirock]]

'''Legendary golems''' is the collective term used to refer to the [[Legendary trio|trio]] of {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}. They are also known as the '''Regi trio''' or just the '''Regis''', based on their names.

Unlike previous trios, the golems share very similar names, and their types are further estranged from the original {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Ice}}, and {{t|Electric}} that the [[legendary birds|birds]] take on (2 of the [[legendary beasts|beasts]] share types with the birds, while only {{p|Regice|one of the golems}} does). Like them, however, these three have a master (and like the beasts, a creator) in {{p|Regigigas}}.

Also shared among the members of this trio is a weakness to {{type2|Fighting}} moves. Each has seven dots for eyes, arranged in a different pattern, similar to the [[braille]] that is connected to their legend. Though unlike the birds and beasts, the golems do not have {{a|Pressure}} as their ability, they do share one in {{a|Clear Body}}.

In the anime and outside ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', they appeared as somewhat less important than the previous two trios, even being trained, in [[Poké Ball]]s, no less, by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}, while the birds are said to cause a cataclysm if even one is captured (as happened in [[M02|the second movie]]) and the beasts are unable to be captured by conventional means.

One of the many reasons why this trio is seen as "easily attainable" is because of the legends surrounding them. Long ago, Regigigas is said to have pulled the continents into place, and then created the three from an icy mountain, rocks, and magma in its image. Regigigas was apparently worshiped at one time, alongside the other three, by ancient people. Due to it being so powerful, Regigigas was sealed away in the basement of [[Snowpoint Temple]], while the ones it created were spirited to the far-off [[Hoenn]] region and locked away in three stone structures, which were then sealed themselves. A message was left in braille to whoever would come to discover the [[Sealed Chamber]], whose only access was via an [[underwater]] cavern, in the hopes that one day the Pokémon could be {{pkmn2|Caught|tamed}}.

==In the games==
===Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald===
In the Hoenn [[Generation III]] games, Regirock is found in the [[Desert Ruins]], on Route 111. To encounter Regirock, the player must go two steps to the left, two steps down and then use {{m|Rock Smash}}. Regice is found in the [[Island Cave]], on Route 105 and to encounter it a clockwise lap around the walls of the cave must be taken. Registeel is found in the [[Ancient Tomb]], on Route 120 and it is required to go to the middle of the room and use {{m|Fly}} to open up Registeel's cave.

===Pokémon Platinum===
The three golems are only obtainable in Pokémon Platinum if the {{player}} has a level 100, fateful encounter {{p|Regigigas}} in their party. Regirock is obtainable in the [[Rock Peak Ruins]] on Route 228, Regice is obtainable in the [[Iceberg Ruins]] in Mt. Coronet and Registeel is obtainable in the [[Iron Ruins]] on Iron Island.

==Trivia==
[[Image:The_Three_Regis.png‎|thumb|250px|right|All three Regis in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'']]
* In {{g|Colosseum}}, the event needed to unlock the legendary golems is referenced in Battle Mode's Single Battle Mount Battle. The 90th trainer, [[Area Leader]] Axley has a party consisting of Regirock, Regice, Registeel, {{p|Flygon}}, {{p|Relicanth}}, and {{p|Wailord}}. Flygon is likely included because it can know {{m|Dig}}, required to unseal the golems.
* The trio can be caught in {{game|Platinum}}, upon an encounter, a remixed version of the music used in {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} is played. There are three other instances in the [[main series]] that a legendary trio or one of its members can be caught in a place that is not their native region (one of the [[legendary beasts]] can be caught in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the [[legendary birds]] are available for capture in Platinum, roaming [[Sinnoh]], and {{p|Moltres}} is available for capture in [[Johto]]'s [[Mt. Silver]]).
**Also in Platinum, the trio became able to learn {{m|Stomp}}, which may have been added to prevent any of the trio knowing {{m|Explosion}} upon being encountered in the wild; The golems are encountered at Level 30, and thus with the addition of Stomp have passed the point where they would know Explosion.
* There have been two situations where the capturing method has had some sort of reversal. First, in [[Generation III]], the party positions of {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Relicanth}} neded to open the sealed chamber are switched between {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{game|Emerald}}. Then, in [[Generation IV]], players need to migrate the trio into {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} in order to capture {{p|Regigigas}}, while a special [[fateful encounter|event]] {{p|Regigigas}} will allow players to capture the other three in Platinum.
* All three Regis are weak to the {{type2|Fighting}}.
** Their [[Trio master]], {{p|Regigigas}}, is also weak to the {{type2|Fighting}}.
* Regirock, Regice, and Registeel are the only Pokémon that, after the release of {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, can only be captured in Generation III (without a special event).
* It is the only legendary trio not to appear in the [[Super Smash Bros.]] series.
* Their types could have been a reference to the 3 major ages in history, the Stone Age, Ice Age, and the Iron Age. Their master, Regigigas, could also be a reference to the era of Pangea, as it is famed by legend to have towed the continents simulating continental drift in the Pokémon world.

'''Cresselia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クレセリア''' ''Creselia'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Cresselia has a blue, swan-like body with a yellow underside, and two magenta tufts that form an arc across her chest. The yellow ornaments on the sides of her head give her head the appearance of a crescent moon. Cresselia also has glowing, pink, ring-like wings on her sides and back with paw like protrusions resting on Cresselia's chest.
====Gender differences====
Cresselia is a female-only species with no male counterpart, but rather a {{p|Darkrai|genderless counterpart}}.

====Special abilities====
Cresselia has the power to dispel the nightmares, including ones induced by {{p|Darkrai}}, and in return induce pleasant dreams. She can also heal psychological scars if the sufferer looks at her. Some fans say Cresselia is the "{{wp|Sandman}}" of the Pokémon world.

Cresselia is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learns {{m|Lunar Dance}}.

===Behavior===
She appears to be gentle, worrying for the ill and giving peace to those tormented by Darkrai. However, as seen in the [[Pokémon anime|anime]], she can be quite hostile towards her counterpart, Darkrai.
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]], her opposition to {{mdc|Darkrai|2}} becomes clearly evident, with the story showing scenes of Cresselia chasing it.

===Habitat===
Cresselia lives at [[Fullmoon Island]]. It also travels around the [[Pokémon world]], dispelling the terrible nightmares others suffer and chasing Darkrai.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Cresselia anime.jpg|right|thumb|210px|Cresselia in the anime]]
A Cresselia first appeared in a short {{wp|Cameo appearance|cameo}} in the beginning of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

Cresselia made her debut appearance in the anime in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle]]''. Cresselia normally comes to its shrine on [[Fullmoon Island]] during a certain time of the year when a {{p|Darkrai}} also comes by to cause nightmares. It may also leave its [[Lunar Wing|feathers]], which people find to help stop the nightmares. It the episode, Cresselia helps {{Ash}} and the other residents of [[Canalave City]] get better sleep by stopping Darkrai.

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}



==In the TCG==
{{main|Cresselia (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===Super Smash Bros. Brawl===
Cresselia appears on the {{st|Spear Pillar}} stage as one of three Pokémon who appear in the center (the others being Dialga and Palkia). Cresselia acts completely different than the other two in terms of attacks she uses. She'll often shoot {{m|Psycho Cut}}s around the field, and sometimes shoot one large Psycho Cut as if it were a boomerang, hitting anyone that touches it.

====Trophy Information====
''A Lunar Pokémon. Cresselia appears on [[Fullmoon Island]] and, once discovered, flies around different areas of Sinnoh. Its signature [[move]], {{m|Lunar Dance}}, causes Cresselia to faint but recovers all the HP and cures the status conditions of the next Pokémon its Trainer sends out. Cresselia excels at recovery techniques and is unusual in that it appears only in female form.''

==Game data==

==Trivia==
* When Cresselia is encountered, the music is the same as an ordinary [[wild Pokémon]], instead of a [[legendary Pokémon]] theme. She shares this trait with {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Latias}}, and {{p|Latios}}.
* Cresselia can be seen as an [[legendary duo|opposite]] of {{p|Darkrai}}, as Darkrai causes nightmares, where Cresselia prevents them. Also, their islands are shaped and named opposite of each other, and their types are frequently known as opposites.
** Furthermore, in the TCG, one of the attacks on [[Darkrai (Great Encounters 3)|Darkrai 3/106 of Great Encounters]], Darkness Pursuit, has a base damage of 100 if Cresselia is the opposing Pokémon. Otherwise, it deals 50 damage.
* Cresselia is one of four legendary Pokémon that has a definite gender, the other two being {{P|Latias}} (a female-only species) ,{{P|Latios}} (a male-only species) and {{P|heatran}} who can be either.
* [[Tower Tycoon Palmer]], [[Cheryl]], and [[Buck]] all own a Cresselia; they use these at the {{si|Battle Tower}}.
* Cresselia is the last Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order as of [[Generation IV]] with a definite type of {{type2|Psychic}}, due to {{p|Arceus}}'s ability, {{a|Multitype}}.
* Cresselia's three main colors (pink, yellow and blue) are the same as the main colors of the [[Lake guardians]].
* Cresselia is the second Pokémon with information about it relating it to an aurora, the first being {{p|Deoxys}}.
** In Deoxys's case, it can project aurora-like light patterns, as shown in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', while in Cresselia's case, it can release aurora-like particles from its tail, and can learn {{m|Aurora Beam}}.
* Cresselia is one of two non-water types that can learn Aurora Beam; with the other being {{p|Delibird}}.
** Cresselia also learns {{m|Psychic}} in the highest level of any Pokémon (93).
===Origin===
Cresselia is based after a {{wp|swan}} with features of heavenly bodies such as a crescent moon-shaped head and rings like {{wp|Saturn}}'s around its body.

Cresselia shares characteristics with {{wp|Sarimanok}}, a colorful being from Philippine mythology.

====Name origin====
Her name is derived from {{wp|Lunar phase|crescent}}, referring to a {{wp|phase of the moon}}. The ''selia'' in her name may be derived from {{wp|Selene}}, the Greek goddess of the Moon.

Pokémon Champion

2010-04-13T00:38:40Z

Lucairo123: /* In the games */

{{Merge|Champion}}
A '''Pokémon champion''' or '''League champion''' (Japanese: '''リーグ優勝者''' ''League champion'' or simply '''チャンピオン''' ''Champion'') is the highest known level of rank for a [[Pokémon Trainer]]. It usually refers to a Trainer who has completed a [[Pokémon League]] by collecting all the necessary [[badge]]s, and either winning a regional Pokémon tournament or defeating the [[Elite Four]] and the previous Pokémon champion. There is usually only one Pokémon champion per region at a time. It is assumed that the champion must defend their title against challengers, although this is never explicitly stated.

In the games, [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] share a League champion, while the other regions with a Pokémon League have their own.

Players who become the Pokémon Champion will notice that it is mostly a symbolic honor, as they are unable to battle challengers or take up any other league duties. In addition, the former champion will still remain at the [[Pokémon League]] and can be battled again even after being deposed.

The path to becoming Champion differs between the anime and the games. Instead of fighting the Elite Four, there is a [[Pokémon League Conference|tournament]] among accomplished Trainers; however [[Lucian]] [[DP035|mentioned]] that the winner of the Sinnoh League has the opportunity to battle the Elite Four and their Champion.

==List of Champions==
===In the games===
* {{ga|Blue}} of [[Pallet Town]] - [[Indigo League]]
* [[Lance]] of [[Blackthorn City]] - [[Johto League]]
* [[Steven Stone]] of [[Mossdeep City]] - [[Hoenn League]] in [[game|ruby and saphire]]
* [[Wallace]] of [[Sootopolis City]] - [[Hoenn League]] in [[game|emerald]]
* [[Cynthia]] of [[Celestic Town]] - [[Sinnoh League]]
* {{player|The player}} of [[Pallet Town]], [[New Bark Town]], [[Littleroot Town]], or [[Twinleaf Town]] (depending) - All games, once defeating the previous Champion

===In the anime===
* [[Jon Dickson]] of [[Sento Cherry Town]] - [[Silver Conference]]
* {{ho|Tyson}} of [[Mauville City]] - [[Ever Grande Conference]]
* {{oi|Captain}} - [[Orange League]]

'''Articuno''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フリーザー''' ''Freezer'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ice|Flying}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

It is, along with {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Moltres}}, one of the three [[legendary birds]] of [[Kanto]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Articuno takes the form of a large bird with predominantly blue plumage. Its coloring is darkest on its long streamer-like tail and head crest. Its head crest is fairly simple, consisting of three rhombus-shaped feathers on its forehead. Its body is a sky-blue, growing lighter on its chest and belly. Its most distinctive feature is its large wings, which look like they are made of ice. It has a small gray beak and thin, similarly-colored legs.

====Gender differences====
Articuno is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
When Articuno flaps its wings, it can chill the moisture in the air around it, making snow fall.

===Behavior===
Articuno is one of the [[legendary birds]] of Kanto. Articuno is more passive than its counterparts; due to its isolation in the highest mountains, Articuno dislikes battling. It also flies from icy mountain to icy mountain. It is a poorly understood species, believed by many to be pure myth. According to legend, it appears before doomed travelers lost in icy regions. It is impossible to tell if these are valid sightings (as doomed travelers would have no way of passing on their story of the sighting), or merely delusions of the dying. It is described as being spectacular in flight: with its long tail streaming behind it, and its wings shining like ice. It is said to cause snow to fall when it flies, and has the potential ability to create {{m|blizzard}}s.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Rare.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rare Pokémon|Rare Pokémon]]]]
Articuno lives in cold, isolated locations, such as mountain peaks. An Articuno is known to roost inside the [[Seafoam Islands]] of Kanto. Articuno is an extremely rare Pokémon. In [[Pokémon Platinum Version|Pokémon Platinum]], it roams around Sinnoh, showing that it can withstand warmer temperatures.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Articuno movie 2.png|thumb|250px|right|{{DL|Legendary birds (The Power of One)|Articuno}} from ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====''[[M02|The Power of One]]''====
Articuno first appeared in the second movie. [[Lawrence III]] attempted to collect {{DL|Legendary birds (The Power of One)|Articuno}} and the two other [[legendary birds]] in his scheme to capture {{p|Lugia}}.

====Other====
Another was seen in the episode ''[[EP189|Freeze Frame]]''. It appears to Team Rocket early in the episode, and then to Ash, Todd, Misty, and Brock. Travelers say that the Articuno watch over them on their journeys through the mountains of [[Johto]]. [[Nurse Joy]] says that Articuno has a nest in all the high mountains and cold places in the world, and flies from nest to nest bringing cold weather with it.

Also, the [[Frontier Brain]] {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} uses an {{TP|Noland|Articuno}} against certain challengers, as seen in the episode ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'' and ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]'', when he accepted {{Ash}}'s challenge and battled against him.

The [[Mirage Master]] briefly wielded the power of a {{pkmn2|Mirage}} Articuno in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
Articuno is shown to seal itself in a block of ice when it senses the presence of an enemy. It strongly dislikes confrontation. However, in [[Pokémon Adventures volume 3]], [[Team Rocket]] was able to temporary get hold of it, together with {{p|Moltres}} and {{p|Zapdos}}. It was used by the then-Rocket Executive [[Koga]] to try and finish {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} and succeeded in freezing them, but that turned out to be a strategy to let the ninja master's guard down and attack him from behind when [[Blue's Charizard]] unfroze them. After his defeat, it is called upon by [[Sabrina]]'s {{p|Kadabra}} with Zapdos and merged to form [[Zapmolcuno]], a combination that proved almost unstoppable until [[Saur]], the {{p|Ivysaur}} it knocked out of the wall, saved its trainers with a web created using {{m|Vine Whip}} and evolved to {{p|Venusaur}} to deliver the final blow with {{OP|Blue|Charizard}} and [[Blasty]]. It at last regains its freedom after the defeat and splits from its fellow birds.

Much later, in the [[Gold, Silver, & Crystal chapter (Adventures)|GSC saga]], it reappears under {{adv|Green}}'s possession with its fellow birds and is lent to Red in the battle against [[Will]] and [[Karen]], who nearly overwhelmed the three with {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}}. Since it has not been seen since, its has either been kept in the box or released, its true status unknown.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Articuno (TCG)}}

==Merchandise==
Articuno was one of the first four Pokémon designs revealed when the [[Pokémon 151]] brand was first announced. In the shirt design, an Articuno is rising out of the right side with the number 144 on its chest.

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Articuno will use a {{m|Blizzard}} attack that freezes any opponent that is caught in it for a few seconds.

====Trophy information====
Clouds gather, the barometer plunges, and fresh snow falls from the frigid air when this [[legendary Pokémon]] takes wing. Graceful and elegant, it boasts long tail feathers that flap in the wind and are lovely to behold. As would be expected, its combat moves are based on its cold nature; they include {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Blizzard}}.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]: Articuno is the guardian of the [[Seven Treasures|Icy Flute]].

==Trivia==
* In the [[EP002|second episode]] of the anime, there is a engraving on the Viridian City Pokémon Center's wall that depicts the [[legendary birds]]. Ash mistakes the Articuno engraving as {{p|Ho-Oh}}. Though the blue coloration of the stone indicates the ice element, and the wings and crest feathers are those of Articuno, the tail feathers are more similar to those of Ho-Oh.
* In {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there are binoculars in the guardhouse separating [[Fuchsia City]] from {{rt|15}}, through which Articuno can be seen flying toward the sea. In a bout of continuity, or possibly an oversight by the designers, it is still visible in the binoculars if it is captured or defeated in the [[Seafoam Islands]].
* In the opening of ''[[EP188|Spring Fever]]'', [[Todd Snap|Todd]] points out a tall mountain that is Articuno's home. This mountain is, on the outside, the same as [[Ice Island|Articuno's home]] in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.
* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]], it is the only one in its trio that cannot be encountered unless the player enters an event password.
* Articuno is the first legendary Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.
* Articuno was the last Generation I Pokémon to be introduced in the anime, and the only one that did not appear in Season 1, if movies and banned episodes are included ({{p|Mew}} is the last if its appearances in movies are not counted).
* Articuno is the only Pokémon other than {{p|Smeargle}} and {{p|Poliwrath}} who can learn an accuracy-focusing move and an OHKO move, learning {{m|Mind Reader}} and {{m|Sheer Cold}}.
* Articuno received some noticeable color changes in [[Generation IV]] in that its entire body was changed from a very light blue to a very rich blue. Also, its legs and beak were changed from blue to a dark brown.

===Origin===
This Pokémon's appearance is based on the Arabic Anka myth, deriving from the Persian رخ {{wp|rukh}}, which is that of a giant arctic bird. The bird is similar to the {{wp|phoenix}} as it is known to resurrect itself and appear to doomed people in the mountains. Also, its long tail and small body may be reference to the rare bird, the {{wp|quetzal}}. It also anatomically resembles the {{wp|Blue Jay}}.

====Name origin====
Articuno's name is a combination of a corrupted version of the word ''arctic'', the far northern regions of the globe, and ''uno'', the {{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} word for one, indicating that it is the first in the series of [[Kanto]] [[legendary birds]]. Its Japanese name is simply ''Freezer'', one who freezes.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Arktos - Related to ''arktisch'' (arctic).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Artikodin - From ''arctique'' (Arctic) and the Norse god ''{{wp|Odin}}''.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 프리져 ''Freezer''

'''Zapdos''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サンダー''' ''Thunder'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Flying}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

It is, along with {{p|Articuno}} and {{p|Moltres}}, one of the three [[legendary birds]] of [[Kanto]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Zapdos has the form of a large bird with black and yellow plumage. Its spiky feathers make it look like it is made of lightning. Its tail feathers stick out in several directions, furthering this illusion. A large crest of feathers decorates its head, and distinctive black rings encircle its eyes. Its beak is very long and thin. While Zapdos is the smallest and lightest of the legendary birds, it is still a [[List of Pokémon by weight#110.2 lbs to 120.0 lbs (80 Power Grass Knot/Low Kick)|fairly large]] Pokémon.

====Gender differences====
Zapdos is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
When Zapdos flaps its glittering wings, it releases electricity, potentially causing thunderstorms.

===Behavior===
Zapdos is one of the [[legendary birds]] of Kanto. It is a poorly understood species, believed by many to be pure myth. It is always seen in conjunction with thunderstorms, leading many to believe that it gathers energy from the electricity in the atmosphere. It is also reported to cause massive crackling and snapping sounds when it flies; these are contributed to the lightning bolts it is said to shed when airborne.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Zapdos is usually always seen during electrical storms, and appears to live in thunderclouds. One is said to live in an abandoned power plant in Kanto. It can be construed that it is attracted by the electricity of the plant. They are extremely rare.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Zapdos movie 2.png|thumb|right|250px|Zapdos in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'']]
===Major appearances===
====''[[M02|The Power of One]]''====
{{DL|Legendary birds (The Power of One)|Zapdos}} made its first true appearance in ''The Power of One''. [[Lawrence III]] wanted to capture the three Kanto Legendary Birds as well as {{p|Lugia}}.

====Other====
The Electric Pokémon made another appearance in ''[[EP242|As Clear As Crystal]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] made an attempt to steal a crystal that gave a lake the ability to heal {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, they were side-tracked when Zapdos showed up and changed their objective to capture Zapdos instead.

===Minor appearances===
The first time Zapdos was seen was in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''. However, it wasn't a real Zapdos, just a machine.

A Zapdos made an appearance in the credits of ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''. [[Jackie]] had captured it with a [[Capture Styler]] and flew away on it.

A Zapdos made a cameo appearance in ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]''. This may have been taken from {{game|Platinum}}, where in this version, there is a Zapdos [[Roaming Pokémon|roaming]] Sinnoh.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Johto}}
{{Animedexbody|EP242|Zapdos|Ash's Pokédex|Zapdos, the Electric Pokémon. Zapdos has both {{t|electric}} and {{t|flying}} elements and the flappage of its wings can create lightning.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
Having captured this legendary bird in the abandoned [[Power Plant]] as in the games, [[Lt. Surge]] appears with Zapdos in his team during the events of {{PAV|3}}, using it as a neverending power source for his Electric-types, allowing them to continually shock {{adv|Red}} at full force, a strategy that turns against him when Red uses [[Saur]]'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the supply cords and his insulating underwear with them. After having been merged with {{p|Articuno}} and {{p|Moltres}} into [[Zapmolcuno|an undiscovered Pokémon]], the three Pallet Town trainers are able to defeat the combined monster, so it leaves his team, and [[Team Rocket]] afterwards to go back to the wild.

{{adv|Green}} later captures Zapdos before the {{chap|Gold, Silver, & Crystal}} and uses it against [[Will]] and [[Karen]], having caught it and its legendary bird companions on her personal training journey to overcome her fear of birds. During this battle, it is lent to {{adv|Blue}} when things get rough. Once returned, it is put back in its [[Poké Ball]] and isn't seen again, meaning it has either been deposited into her box or released.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Zapdos (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Zapdos uses a powerful {{m|ThunderShock}} that hits opponents several times to produce a substantial amount of damage.

====Trophy information====
Zapdos flaps its wings, and summer storms appear, throwing lightning every which way. It's said that you can hear this legendary Pokémon coming, as its wings make a very distinctive popping sound as it flies. In addition to electrical moves like the dreaded {{m|Thunder}}, it also wields a vicious move called {{m|Drill Peck}}.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* Zapdos is the first legendary Pokémon encountered in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]. After it kidnaps {{p|Shiftry}}, the player must fight it at the top of [[Mt. Thunder]]. It is possible to recruit Zapdos by returning for another fight after the credits.

==Trivia==
* Of all legendary Pokémon with fixed in-game locations, Zapdos can be obtained with the fewest number of badges: 3. In the [[Generation I]] games and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|their remakes]], one can catch Zapdos with only the {{badge|Boulder}}, {{badge|Cascade}}, and {{badge|Soul}} alougth it is far to strong for most trainers at the time,at level 50
* In Generation I, Zapdos was the only dual-type Electric Pokémon, as {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} did not gain a secondary type until {{t|Steel}} was introduced in [[Generation II]].
* Zapdos shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Elekid}} and {{p|Electabuzz}}. They are all known as Electric Pokémon.
* Zapdos and {{p|Jolteon}} have almost the same Japanese name, a final ''s'' being the only difference.
* Zapdos and the {{p|Chinchou}} evolution family (without {{a|Volt Absorb}}) are the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon that receive neutral damage from Electric-type moves.
* Zapdos is the only one of the [[legendary birds]] to not have a double weakness to {{t|Rock}}.
* It is so far [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|the only]] dual-type {{2t|Electric|Flying}} Pokémon.
* Zapdos shares its cry with [['M]].
* Zapdos is the only one of the legendary birds to never be seen on its feet in a sprite: it is always in the air.
* In Generation II, Zapdos was given an additional toe pointing forward on each foot giving it three. However, {{g|Stadium 2}} shares the same 3-D model for Zapdos as its Generation I 3-D games, {{Eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and {{g|Snap}}, so in that game, it still only has two.

===Origin===
Zapdos is based on the {{wp|Native American}} legend of the {{wp|thunderbird (mythology)|thunderbird}}. The thunderbird was known for being the spirit of thunder, lightning, and rain in the form of a giant bird. The beating of the wings was said to create thunder.

====Name origin====
Zapdos's name is a combination of the word ''zap'' and the {{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} word for two, ''dos'', indicating that it is the second in the series of [[Kanto]] [[legendary birds]]. Its Japanese name is simply ''Thunder''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Zapdos
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Electhor - A combination of ''electric'' and {{wp|Thor}}, the Norse god of thunder.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 썬더 ''Thunder''

'''Thunder''' (Japanese: '''かみなり''' ''Thunder'') is a damage-dealing {{type2|Electric}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Thunder deals damage and has a 10% chance of {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} the target.

Thunder can't paralyze a target that has a {{m|Substitute}} or already has a major status ailment.

===Generation II===
Thunder has an accuracy of 100% when used during heavy rain and 50% if used during bright sunlight. It also has a 30% chance of paralyzing the target. It can also hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Fly}}.

===Generation III===
Same as previous generations, but also dealing double damage on a Pokémon using {{m|Bounce}}.

===Generation IV===
Same as previous generations, but if used in heavy rain, it can penetrate through {{m|Protect}} or {{m|Detect}}. This does not happen anymore in {{game|Platinum}} or {{ game|HeartGold/SoulSilver.}}

==Trivia==
* In some copies of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, using Thunder or {{m|Thunderbolt}} may cause the game to freeze during the moves' animation sequences. This can be remedied by turning off the [[battle animation]]s in the options menu. Also, in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the sound of Thunder or Thunderbolt may get stuck until the game resets.
* The TM for Thunder is the same number as {{p|Pikachu}}'s [[National Pokédex]] number. Pikachu is also the first Pokémon [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|by National Pokédex order]] to learn it via level up.
* Zapdos is the only Pokémon that learns Thunder by leveling up that isn't a pure {{type2|Electric}}.
* Thunder shares its name with {{p|Zapdos}}'s Japanese name.

Outsider Pokémon

2010-04-07T22:18:20Z

Lucairo123: /* Methods of obtaining outsider Pokémon */

An '''outsider Pokémon''' is a class of [[Pokémon]] in the [[Pokémon games]] that is not originally from the same game cartridge as the player.

==Description==
[[File:Chding.png|thumb|right|250px|Once on {{ga|Red}}'s game, Elyssa's {{p|Farfetch'd}} is classed as an outsider Pokémon.]]
A Pokémon is recognized as an outsider if its [[Original Trainer]] identification does not match up with the current saved game. This means that if a Pokémon is traded out of a game that is later restarted, and the Pokémon is traded back in, it will be treated as an outsider.

While appearing no different to any Pokémon caught by the {{player}} (apart from the OT name and [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID]]), an outsider Pokémon may behave in a different manner to those found in-game. If the [[Pokémon Trainer]] in possession of the outsider Pokémon has less than the sufficient amount of [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s, the outsider may choose to disobey commands in battle. This can range from using a different [[move]] from the one instructed, "loafing around", or even {{status|sleep|taking a nap}}.

The in-game reasoning provided for this is that Pokémon respect Trainers who have defeated [[Gym Leader]]s: thus, by earning more Badges, a player will gradually cause an increased number of Pokémon to listen to him or her. Also, this rule arguably stands to prevent someone from trading in a high-leveled Pokémon trained on to another game, and easily beating his or her game.

While there is a chance that the Pokémon will not listen to its new Trainer, it will grow faster once traded. Outsider Pokémon gain 1.5 times the normal [[experience]] points awarded for participating in {{pkmn|battle}}s; outsider Pokémon from other countries will gain 1.7x the normal experience. This is denoted in-game with "<sc>Pokémon</sc> gained a boosted X Exp. Points!"

Even if two different saved games have the same Trainer name, and (although rare) a matching ID number, Pokémon from the games may be outsiders to each other because of a third value: a hidden, [[secret ID]]. In the event that all three values match, the Pokémon may be traded without being classed as outsiders. This has a 1 in 4,294,967,296 (232) chance of occurring.

==Methods of obtaining outsider Pokémon==
Outsider Pokémon can be obtained in a number of ways. If the {{player}} has multiple game packs and {{cat|game systems}}, a Pokémon may be exchanged in a [[trade]]. they may also trade with a freinds game and in [[generation IV]] via [[gts]]Trading is possible in-game, as well, and each [[version|main series]] game has a number of [[non-player character]]s who will [[list of in-game trades|trade]] one of their Pokémon (which may or may not be otherwise obtainable) for one of the player's.

Sometimes, non-player characters will give out Pokémon with no exchange: usually, though, these Pokémon will have the same ID and OT name as the player. In some instances, however, such as {{jo|Webster}}'s {{p|Spearow}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and their remakes, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the Pokémon given to the player will be recognized as an outsider, and thus have the experience boost and potential disobedience.

Friendship

2010-04-07T22:02:00Z

Lucairo123: /* Generation IV */

{{outdated}}
'''Happiness''' is a measurement of how much a Pokémon loves its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and enjoys being in their care, there a few species whose evolution depends on it. As a full feature, it was introduced in [[Generation II]]. Happiness also determines the power of {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}.

==Generation I==
A prototype of the happiness system used by later games was introduced in {{game|Yellow}}, the last [[main series]] game of [[Generation I]]. Like the later system, its value ranged between 0 and 255 inclusive, however, this value was only applied to the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} the player [[starter Pokémon|started with]].

Unlike later games, since Pikachu is outside of its Poké Ball, the player can turn and look at it at any time as it follows him around the overworld. Pikachu will then indicate its happiness in a small window that appears. At maximum happiness, Pikachu will jump up and down before the window appears.

Like later games, Pikachu's happiness will rise when it gains a level. If its Trainer uses an item on Pikachu, its happiness will also rise, even if it is an item that has no effect on Pikachu (such as a [[Potion]] at full HP). In this manner, Pikachu is much easier to make happy than Pokémon in future generations.

Pikachu's happiness drops if it is put into [[Bill's PC]] or faints. Trading it to another game will reset its happiness to 0.

Happiness is not recorded for any other Pokémon in Generation I, while the happiness of Pikachu does not affect much: the only real effect it has is whether or not [[Melanie]] will give {{p|Bulbasaur}} away in [[Cerulean City]], which she will only do if its happiness is 147 or higher.

==Generation II==
In [[Generation II]] the happiness system became fully implemented, building on the system used in Yellow by tracking the happiness of any Pokémon owned by the Trainer. Like before, it is a single byte with a value between 0 and 255.

Happiness is set when a Pokémon is brought under a Trainer's control: that is, it is 70 when a Pokémon is captured from the wild, and reset to 70 when a Pokémon is traded from another game. When a Pokémon is hatched from an {{pkmn|egg}}, its value is set to 120. If a Pokémon is captured in a [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Friend Ball]], rather than any other kind, its happiness is set to 200 instead.

Another function was given to happiness in Generation II, the evolution of certain Pokémon, which has continued until the present, with new Pokémon which evolve through happiness being introduced in each generation. Happiness-based evolutions occur when a Pokémon's happiness is 220 or higher.

Unlike in Generation I, happiness will not increase if an item that cannot be used is used on a Pokémon: for example, using [[HP Up]]s on a Quilava which already has the maximum HP it can have will not result in raised happiness.

However, some things, though frequently reported, aren't part of the Generation II modifier. The following are things that do not affect a Pokémon's happiness, either positively or negatively:
*Putting a Pokémon in Bill's PC
*Healing the Pokémon when weak and injured
*Giving a Pokémon a hold item
*Using a Pokémon in battles
*Winning battles with a Pokémon
*Letting a Pokémon's HP fall to critical status
*Letting your Pokémon get a status condition like Paralysis
*Walking when your Pokémon has a status condition

==Generation III==
Happiness in [[Generation III]] works much the same as before; however, additions were made to happiness-altering events. If a Pokémon is caught in a [[Luxury Ball]], all happiness-raising events will rise by one point more, while happiness-lowering events are not affected. Likewise, a Pokémon holding a [[Soothe Bell]] will also rise by one additional point per happiness-raising event. These effects stack on each other, meaning a Pokémon in a Luxury Ball holding a Soothe Bell gets two additional points per event.

Pokémon now have a base happiness per species; however, most catchable Pokémon have the standard 70 points as their starting level.

==Generation IV==
Happiness in [[Generation IV]] is much the same as it is in [[Generation III]], though the conditions are altered slightly. The Luxury Ball now causes a Pokémon to have a separate rise in happiness than Pokémon in other Balls.

In [[Eterna City]], a girl in the [[Pokémon Center]] will give away a [[Pokétch]] app that shows how much the Pokémon in the player's [[party]] like the player. Maximum happiness is represented by two big hearts.

In [[Hearthome City]], a member of the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] will rate a Pokémon's happiness in a standardized manner similar to previous generations.

[[Dr. Footstep]], the sole resident of the Footstep House on {{rt|213}}, will also tell a Pokémon's happiness, albeit in a roundabout way which differs among Pokémon species. At maximum happiness, he will give the Pokémon in question a [[ribbon]].

===Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia===
Happiness also has a slight effect in the second Ranger game. The [[Partner Pokémon]] can have the condition of ''Fine'', ''Happy'', or ''Very Happy''. When it is happy, black musical notes come out of it. Multicolored musical notes come out when it is very happy. This may happen whether or not it is with the player. This condition increases the speed the Partner Gauge fills up.

==Evolutions==
Several Pokémon evolve when their happiness level is at or above 220:

==Happiness raters==
Happiness raters are different [[NPC]]s that may be talked to to indicate the happiness of the first Pokémon in the player's party. Some will give away certain items depending on the happiness, while others just tell how happy the Pokémon is.

*[[Verdanturf Town]], in the house in the south of the town.
*[[Pacifidlog Town]], Once every seven days, gives away one of either {{TM|27|Return}} (happiness above 150) or {{TM|21|Frustration}} (happiness below 100).
*[[Pallet Town]], at Rival's house, [[Daisy Oak|Daisy]] will judge a Pokémon's happiness. ([[Generation III]] only)
*[[Hearthome City]], in the [[Pokémon Fan Club]].

In addition, the [[Pokétch]] App, Friend Checker, will display a Pokémon's happiness on a scale of one to two small or big hearts.

== Trivia ==
*The only [[regional Pokédex]] that contained all Pokémon that evolve by happiness at the time was the [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|old Johto Pokédex]]. Neither the Hoenn Pokédex, Sinnoh Pokédex (before or after the expansion) nor the New Johto Pokédex contained all happiness-evolvers as of their respective generation, with the Sinnoh Pokédex excluding only {{p|Igglybuff}} and its family.

Lucairo123: /* Generation IV */

{{outdated}}
'''Happiness''' is a measurement of how much a Pokémon loves its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and enjoys being in their care, there a few species whose evolution depends on it. As a full feature, it was introduced in [[Generation II]]. Happiness also determines the power of {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}.

==Generation I==
A prototype of the happiness system used by later games was introduced in {{game|Yellow}}, the last [[main series]] game of [[Generation I]]. Like the later system, its value ranged between 0 and 255 inclusive, however, this value was only applied to the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} the player [[starter Pokémon|started with]].

Unlike later games, since Pikachu is outside of its Poké Ball, the player can turn and look at it at any time as it follows him around the overworld. Pikachu will then indicate its happiness in a small window that appears. At maximum happiness, Pikachu will jump up and down before the window appears.

Like later games, Pikachu's happiness will rise when it gains a level. If its Trainer uses an item on Pikachu, its happiness will also rise, even if it is an item that has no effect on Pikachu (such as a [[Potion]] at full HP). In this manner, Pikachu is much easier to make happy than Pokémon in future generations.

Pikachu's happiness drops if it is put into [[Bill's PC]] or faints. Trading it to another game will reset its happiness to 0.

Happiness is not recorded for any other Pokémon in Generation I, while the happiness of Pikachu does not affect much: the only real effect it has is whether or not [[Melanie]] will give {{p|Bulbasaur}} away in [[Cerulean City]], which she will only do if its happiness is 147 or higher.

==Generation II==
In [[Generation II]] the happiness system became fully implemented, building on the system used in Yellow by tracking the happiness of any Pokémon owned by the Trainer. Like before, it is a single byte with a value between 0 and 255.

Happiness is set when a Pokémon is brought under a Trainer's control: that is, it is 70 when a Pokémon is captured from the wild, and reset to 70 when a Pokémon is traded from another game. When a Pokémon is hatched from an {{pkmn|egg}}, its value is set to 120. If a Pokémon is captured in a [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Friend Ball]], rather than any other kind, its happiness is set to 200 instead.

Another function was given to happiness in Generation II, the evolution of certain Pokémon, which has continued until the present, with new Pokémon which evolve through happiness being introduced in each generation. Happiness-based evolutions occur when a Pokémon's happiness is 220 or higher.

Unlike in Generation I, happiness will not increase if an item that cannot be used is used on a Pokémon: for example, using [[HP Up]]s on a Quilava which already has the maximum HP it can have will not result in raised happiness.

===Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia===
Happiness also has a slight effect in the second Ranger game. The [[Partner Pokémon]] can have the condition of ''Fine'', ''Happy'', or ''Very Happy''. When it is happy, black musical notes come out of it. Multicolored musical notes come out when it is very happy. This may happen whether or not it is with the player. This condition increases the speed the Partner Gauge fills up.

==Happiness raters==
Happiness raters are different [[NPC]]s that may be talked to to indicate the happiness of the first Pokémon in the player's party. Some will give away certain items depending on the happiness, while others just tell how happy the Pokémon is.

===Locations===
*[[Goldenrod City]], in the house northeast of the bike shop.

*The only [[regional Pokédex]] that contained all Pokémon that evolve by happiness at the time was the [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|old Johto Pokédex]]. Neither the Hoenn Pokédex, Sinnoh Pokédex (before or after the expansion) nor the New Johto Pokédex contained all happiness-evolvers as of their respective generation, with the Sinnoh Pokédex excluding only {{p|Igglybuff}} and its family.

'''Steven Stone''' (Japanese: '''ツワブキダイゴ''' ''Daigo Tsuwabuki'') is the Elite [[Champion]] in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, and a powerful wandering {{pkmn|Trainer}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, having relegated his title to [[Wallace]]. He is a {{pkmn|master}} of the {{type2|Steel}}, with a {{p|Metagross}} being the cornerstone of his team.

Steven is the son of the president of the [[Devon Corporation]], and he and his father both collect rare stones. Steven makes his home on {{Ci|Mossdeep}}, and when the Elite Four are beaten in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, he will have left a {{p|Beldum}} and a note for the player.

==In the games==
[[Image:Steven-rs.png|left|thumb|Battling Steven Stone]]
His strategy in battle is to use {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon to find the opponent's weakness.

Steven is the Champion in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}. In Emerald, [[Wallace]] replaces him in this role.

In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, after Steven is defeated, he offers a {{p|Beldum}} at his house at {{ci|Mossdeep}}.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Steven is a powerful wandering trainer who gave up competing seriously to spend more time looking for rare rocks and stones. He claims to be willing to {{m|Waterfall|climb waterfalls}} to find rare stones. With this hint, he can be found and challenged in the upper area of [[Meteor Falls]] after defeating the Elite Four.

He also appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. The player will first meet him after they have left the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] after collecting the [[Copycat]]'s Clefairy Doll, in which he will appear and inform the player that there's reports of either a {{p|Latios|blue}} or {{p|Latias|red}} Pokémon {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Kanto]]. The next time the player will meet him after beating {{ga|Red}} on [[Mt. Silver]], where he will appear in the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]] and let the player choose one of the Hoenn [[starter Pokémon]]. He can afterwards be found in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], offering to trade a {{p|Beldum}} for a {{p|Forretress}}.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Steven Stone.jpg|210px|thumb|Steven in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Steven's only appearance in the [[Pokémon anime]] was in ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]''. He helped {{Ash}}, {{Ashfr|his friends}}, and [[Team Rocket]] escape from an underground cavern.

At the end of the episode, Ash vowed to train harder so one day he could be powerful enough to battle Steven.

===Pokémon===
Steven uses these Pokémon in the anime:
{{TrainerPoké

|type1=Steel
|type2=Rock
|img=StevenAron.png
|epnum=AG022
|epname=A Hole Lotta Trouble
|desc=Steven Stone's {{p|Aron}} was throughout the episode outside its [[Poké Ball]], when its owner was in [[Granite Cave]] looking for [[Evolutionary stone|stones]], it helped out {{m|dig}}ging at the ground. When [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} where setting another pitfall trap for {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, {{an|Brock}} and [[Max]], they also fell down being split up. Aron and its trainer try to find the source of the crash, they found Max, Meowth and {{AP|Pikachu}}, the trio tells Steven what happened. Finding a large hole and where the others were, a group of rampaging Aron head traight towards them which they succeed to dodge them. After sending [[Team Rocket]] blasting off, they found a {{evostone|Fire Stone}}. Aron and Steven said their farewells to the group as they headed off into the distance on a sailing boat.

Aron's known moves are {{m|Dig}} and {{m|Roar}}.}}

{{TrainerPoké

Aggron's only known move is {{m|Hyper Beam}}.}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Steven Adventures.png|right|thumb|300px|Steven and his {{p|Metagross}} in ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'']]Steven met {{adv|Ruby}} while looking through the Granite Cave. During a battle with wild {{p|Mawile}}, Ruby's {{p|Skitty}} bumped into one of Steven's Moon Stones, causing it to evolve.

Steven was well-aware of the danger [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] presented, and extended an invitation to Ruby to join the fight against them. Steven invited him to help, but Ruby declined because he didn't like battling. The armlets on Steven's arms are devices he can chip away stone with, to grab and retrieve rocks he sees that are out of reach.

Later in the series, Steven confessed that he and his father, the owner of the [[Devon Corporation]], knew about the schemes of [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] quite long ago. [[Mr. Stone]] built the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] so that Steven can seal the Seafloor Cavern and no one would be able to wake {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}. The backup plan in case it fails would be to unseal {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}.

Steven later assembles the rest of the Hoenn Elite Four in order to fight against Kyogre and Groudon. With the help of {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Relicanth}}, Steven and the [[Elite Four]] unsealed the Regis. Steven took control of Registeel and gave the other two Regis to the other members of the Elite Four.

Knowing he would die in Kyogre and Groudon's battle, Steven stepped down from the position of Champion, and gave it back to [[Wallace]], who was actually the true Champion while Steven had only been a runner-up. After Kyogre and Groudon returned to their respective domains, Steven apparently died from the strain of controlling the Regis, but was later revived under mysterious circumstances when Ruby released his {{p|Celebi}}.

Steven later traveled to Sinnoh to collect the rare stones found in the region. He had purchased a [[Villa]] but sold it to {{adv|Platinum}} and returned to Hoenn at the start of the {{chap|Platinum}}.

Steven uses his Metagross to fly around Hoenn. Its magnetism allows him to float atop it.

==Quotes==
===Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire===
''"Welcome, <{{player}}>. I was looking forward to seeing you here one day. You... What did you see on your journey with Pokémon? What did you feel, meeting so many other Trainers like you? What has awoken in you? I want you to hit me with it all! Now, bring it!"''

''"I, the Champion, fall in defeat... Kudos to you, <player>! You are a truly noble Pokémon Trainer!"''

Pick on the foe's weakness.

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
The ultimate Steel Pokémon

'''Self-Introduction''' -
When it comes down to it, I'm still the strongest!

===Pokémon Emerald===
''"Oh, wow, <player>. I'm amazed you knew where to find me. Do you, uh...maybe think of me as just a rock maniac? No, that can't be right. We battled alongside each other at the Sootopolis Space Center. You should have a very good idea about how good I am. Okay, <player>, if you're going to mount a serious challenge, expect the worst!"''

''"You... I had no idea you'd become so strong..."''

''"Come to think of it, ever since our paths first crossed in [[Granite Cave]] in {{to|Dewford}}, I had this feeling. I thought that you would eventually become the {{pkmn|Champion}}. My predictions usually come true. And where will you go from here? ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Fufufu, even I couldn't tell you that."''

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Emerald}}, when the {{player}} speaks to him in [[Meteor Falls]] before their battle, he makes an error. He talks of their encounter in the [[Sootopolis City]] Space Center. The Space Center is actually in [[Mossdeep City]], and this dialog may result from the encounter the player has with him in Sootopolis in Ruby and Sapphire.
* Also, the battle with Steven against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]] is the only occasion in the [[Generation III]] games where the player teams up with an ally for a double battle. Several others are available in the Battle Frontier and multiple times in [[Generation IV]].
** During this tag battle, by hacking the game, it is possible to level up Steven's Pokémon (this would not happen normally, as not enough experience is given to do so).
* In the anime, Steven is the Champion with the least amount of screen time (counting Gary as Blue), appearing in one episode, while everyone else has appeared more than once. He is also the only Champion not to play a significant role in the anime.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, the person who gives the player their [[villa]] in the [[Resort Area]] mentions that the guy who gave him the villa came to [[Sinnoh]] to collect rare stones. After collecting the stones, he left the region with all the items in the villa. This mysterious previous owner may in fact be Steven, who himself sold the villa to {{adv|Platinum}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]] and subsequently appeared in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
**Interestingly, the Beldum that he trades is holding a Dawn Stone, which has not appeared in Hoenn but has in Sinnoh, meaning that this could be one of the rare stones he sought.
* He is the only champion with no Water-type Pokémon. Ironically, he is replaced in {{game|Emerald}} by [[Wallace]] who uses ''only'' Water-type Pokémon.
* In the anime, Steven is portrayed as having blue-green eyes, however, in [[Pokemon Adventures]] he is portrayed as having yellow eyes.
* In the anime, the games, the Japanese version of Pokemon Adventures and the back cover of the English Version of [[Pokémon Adventures volume 21]], Steven's hair sticks out on the right, but in the English version of Pokemon Adventures his hair sticks out on the left.
** This is because the artwork for the English version is printed in reverse of the Japanese Version.
*steven is simmalar to {{red}}'s role in ((game|Gold and Silver}} in emrald as they are both former champions who can be batled after defeating the elite four

'''Kirlia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''キルリア''' ''Kirlia'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It evolves from {{p|Ralts}} starting at [[level]] 20. It can either evolve into {{p|Gardevoir}} starting at [[level]] 30, or, if male, into {{p|Gallade}} when exposed to radiation from a {{evostone|Dawn Stone}}.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Kirlia has a white body and looks as if it's wearing a mini-skirt. Kirlia has skinny, green legs. Kirlia's hair doesn't block its eyes as much as {{p|Ralts}}'s hair does. Kirlia's hair has bangs that reach down to its shoulders and the two red horns have shifted their position, making them look like hair pins.

====Gender differences====
Kirlia has no physical gender differences, but its evolutionary pattern can depend on gender: only a male Kirlia can evolve into a {{p|Gallade}}, although Kirlia of both genders may become {{p|Gardevoir}}.

===Special abilities===
Kirlia's abilities are mostly about the same as Ralts's are, only stronger. Whenever Kirlia uses its {{t|Psychic}} abilities, the space around it becomes distorted, creating mirages of nonexistent scenery. Kirlia also has the power to see into the future and create a rip in the dimensions.

===Behavior===
Kirlia's beauty is said to grow whenever it receives positive feelings from its Trainer. Kirlia like to dance during sunny mornings.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Kirlia anime.png|thumb|250px|right|Kirlia in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Kirlia first appeared in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. [[Butler]] used the Emotion Pokémon for a magic act and to fight {{p|Absol}}.

Elijah used a Kirlia in a movie for ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]''. The Emotion Pokémon had a "damsel-in-distress" role for the movie it was used in.

Kirlia also appeared in ''[[AG109|Do I Hear a Ralts?]]'' as well as its evolved form, Gardevoir. Both of them sent [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} flying when the Rocket Trio cornered [[Max]] and [[Ash's Snorunt]] while they were hurrying to send Ralts to the [[Pokémon Center]]. However, Kirlia and Gardevoir thought that Max was also stealing Ralts, too. When Ralts blocked Kirlia and Gardevoir's {{m|Psychic}}, all hostilities were ignored and the two other Psychic Pokémon left. Kirlia and Gardevoir appeared once more at the near-end of the episode to send James flying (Ralts already launched Jessie and Meowth for posing themselves as a Gardevoir and Kirlia).

===Minor appearances===
A Kirlia was living in an abandoned mining colony in ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]''. [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]] fell in love with the Emotion Pokémon.

Two Kirlia appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''. One appearing in a flashback, being one of [[J|Pokémon Hunter J]]'s stolen Pokémon, and the other used by Melodi so Ash and his friends can find out where Pokémon Hunter J and [[J's henchmen|her minions]] will strike next after [[Ash's Pikachu]], Melodi's Gardevoir and Team Rocket's Meowth were stolen.

Kirlia made an appearance in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' as one of the Pokémon attacked by {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} and having nightmares. [[Alicia]], [[Alice]]'s grandmother, treated Kirlia and woke it up, along with {{p|Roserade}} and {{p|Luxray}}.

[[Zoey]] was shown to have caught a Kirlia in ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}
{{Animedexbody|DP020|Kirlia|Dawn's Pokédex|Kirlia, the Emotion Pokémon. Kirlia uses the horns on its head to amplify its Psychic powers, and when this occurs reality becomes warped, and future events can be seen.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{Adventures|Ruby}} has a {{p|Ralts}} which evolved into a Kirlia, nicknamed Ruru. While he was with [[Wally]], Wally wound up keeping Ruru after an earthquake separated Ruby and Wally. Ruru was returned to Ruby when he met up with Wally again.

==Trivia==
*Kirlia shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Mesprit}}. They are both known as Emotion Pokémon.
*Kirlia's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] is the same: 158. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising thirteen Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one [[Pokédex]]-like listing.
*In Platinum , it is availible via Pokéradar on the same route as it's pre- evolution is availible normally
===Origin===
Kirlia resembles a {{wp|ballerina}}.
====Name origin====
Kirlia's name is derived from ''{{wp|Kirlian photography}}'', a special way of taking pictures that supposedly reveals psychic energy auras around subjects.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Kirlia
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Kirlia

'''Kirlia''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''キルリア''' ''Kirlia'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It evolves from {{p|Ralts}} starting at [[level]] 20. It can either evolve into {{p|Gardevoir}} starting at [[level]] 30, or, if male, into {{p|Gallade}} when exposed to radiation from a {{evostone|Dawn Stone}}.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Kirlia has a white body and looks as if it's wearing a mini-skirt. Kirlia has skinny, green legs. Kirlia's hair doesn't block its eyes as much as {{p|Ralts}}'s hair does. Kirlia's hair has bangs that reach down to its shoulders and the two red horns have shifted their position, making them look like hair pins.

====Gender differences====
Kirlia has no physical gender differences, but its evolutionary pattern can depend on gender: only a male Kirlia can evolve into a {{p|Gallade}}, although Kirlia of both genders may become {{p|Gardevoir}}.

===Special abilities===
Kirlia's abilities are mostly about the same as Ralts's are, only stronger. Whenever Kirlia uses its {{t|Psychic}} abilities, the space around it becomes distorted, creating mirages of nonexistent scenery. Kirlia also has the power to see into the future and create a rip in the dimensions.

===Behavior===
Kirlia's beauty is said to grow whenever it receives positive feelings from its Trainer. Kirlia like to dance during sunny mornings.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Kirlia anime.png|thumb|250px|right|Kirlia in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Kirlia first appeared in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. [[Butler]] used the Emotion Pokémon for a magic act and to fight {{p|Absol}}.

Elijah used a Kirlia in a movie for ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]''. The Emotion Pokémon had a "damsel-in-distress" role for the movie it was used in.

Kirlia also appeared in ''[[AG109|Do I Hear a Ralts?]]'' as well as its evolved form, Gardevoir. Both of them sent [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} flying when the Rocket Trio cornered [[Max]] and [[Ash's Snorunt]] while they were hurrying to send Ralts to the [[Pokémon Center]]. However, Kirlia and Gardevoir thought that Max was also stealing Ralts, too. When Ralts blocked Kirlia and Gardevoir's {{m|Psychic}}, all hostilities were ignored and the two other Psychic Pokémon left. Kirlia and Gardevoir appeared once more at the near-end of the episode to send James flying (Ralts already launched Jessie and Meowth for posing themselves as a Gardevoir and Kirlia).

===Minor appearances===
A Kirlia was living in an abandoned mining colony in ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]''. [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]] fell in love with the Emotion Pokémon.

Two Kirlia appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''. One appearing in a flashback, being one of [[J|Pokémon Hunter J]]'s stolen Pokémon, and the other used by Melodi so Ash and his friends can find out where Pokémon Hunter J and [[J's henchmen|her minions]] will strike next after [[Ash's Pikachu]], Melodi's Gardevoir and Team Rocket's Meowth were stolen.

Kirlia made an appearance in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' as one of the Pokémon attacked by {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} and having nightmares. [[Alicia]], [[Alice]]'s grandmother, treated Kirlia and woke it up, along with {{p|Roserade}} and {{p|Luxray}}.

[[Zoey]] was shown to have caught a Kirlia in ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]''.

==In the manga==
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{Adventures|Ruby}} has a {{p|Ralts}} which evolved into a Kirlia, nicknamed Ruru. While he was with [[Wally]], Wally wound up keeping Ruru after an earthquake separated Ruby and Wally. Ruru was returned to Ruby when he met up with Wally again.

'''Ponyta''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポニータ''' ''Ponyta'') is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Rapidash}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Ponyta's physiology is similar to that of a horse. However, its mane and tail are made of flame rather than the usual hair. Its fur is cream all over. It is capable of leaping tall buildings in a single bound.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Ponyta's [[ability]], {{a|Flash Fire}}, causes it to power up if it is hit by a {{type2|Fire}} move, and causes the move to have no effect. Ponyta, as a Fire-type, is capable of using a variety of Fire-type moves, and is one of the few Fire-type Pokémon capable of using {{m|Flame Wheel}}. As Ponyta’s hooves are quite hard, being ten times harder than diamonds, it is able to trample anything flat in little time.

===Behavior===
Ponyta is generally a docile Pokémon, that allows humans to ride on its back occasionally. However, if angered, it may choose to burn its rider.

A newborn Ponyta is a weak runner and is actually barely able to stand, but its legs gradually become stronger and faster by chasing after its parents. An hour after its hatching, its fiery mane and tail grow out, which is said to give it an impressive appearance. Ponyta is capable of jumping extremely high, training by jumping over grass that grows longer every day. Its hooves and sturdy legs absorb the impact of a hard landing. Ponyta runs in fields and mountains all day, and it kicks back with its hind legs at any presence it senses behind it.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Ponyta live in grasslands, on plains, or anywhere that they can find plenty of grass to eat and run freely. One is likely to find them in [[Kanto]] and [[Sinnoh]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Ponyta is an herbivore, mainly eating grasses, small shrubs, berries, etc. It seems to have a special taste for the [[Shuca Berry]], being found holding them often.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Lara Laramine with her Ponyta.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Ponyta in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Ponyta is first seen under the care of [[Lara Laramie]] in ''[[EP033|The Flame Pokémon-athon]]''. {{Ash}} uses it in a race, in which it evolves to {{p|Rapidash}}.

In ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'', [[Santa Claus]] had Ponyta to pull his sleigh at a time before {{p|Stantler}} was introduced.

[[Wings Alexander]] also had two Ponyta in ''[[EP223|Throwing in the Noctowl]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Ponyta was also a member of [[Stella]]'s circus in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]''.

Little [[Nurse Joy|Joy]] owned a Ponyta in ''[[SS013|Celebi and Joy]]''.

A Ponyta appeared in ''[[AG035|Win, Lose, or Drew!]]'' as a Pokémon in the Contest.

==Trivia==
*Ponyta is able to learn the move {{m|Horn Drill}} via breeding despite it lacking an apparent horn. Its evolution, {{p|Rapidash}}, has a horn, however.
*Ponyta and Rapidash are the only {{type2|Fire}}s in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number#Diamond and Pearl edition|original Sinnoh Pokédex]] besides the region's [[starter Pokémon]], {{p|Chimchar}}, {{p|Monferno}}, and {{p|Infernape}}. This is especially apparent when facing {{EF|Flint}}, whose only Fire-type Pokémon are Rapidash and Infernape. More Fire-types were added in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Platinum expansion}}.
*In August of 2007, employees of Game Freak put [[List of Nintendo event Pokémon in 2007#Jun Psyduck, GTS, August 19-30, 2007|a Japanese Psyduck]] up on [[Global Trade Station]] for American Ponyta.
*Ponyta is one of fourteen Pokémon that it is possible to collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
*Ponyta and its {{p|Rapidash|evolution}}, are currently the only Pokémon based on horses.
*despite the pokedex entry for diamondsaying it takes an hour after birth for its flame to start it's flames are viible immeaditely after one hatchs

===Origin===
It would seem that Ponyta, along with its evolution Rapidash, are based on Pyrios, Aeos, Aethon, and Phlegon, the "fiery steeds" that carried the Greek God {{wp|Helios}}'s Chariot of the Sun around the world each day.
====Name origin====
Ponyta's name is derived from ''{{wp|pony}}''. It may also be partly based on the Spanish word "bonita", meaning "beautiful". It could also be a shortened form of the word ''ponytail''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Ponita
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Ponyta
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 포니타 ''Ponita''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 小火馬 - Literally "little fire horse".

'''Cascoon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マユルド''' ''Mayuld'') is a {{type2|Bug}} [[Pokémon]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wurmple}} starting at [[level]] 7, and it evolves into {{p|Dustox}} starting at level 10.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Cascoon is very similar to {{p|Silcoon}} in design, being a spiked, cocoon-like Pokémon with two red eyes. However, it has a slightly darker, more purple coloration.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Cascoon has a tough cocoon, built to repel attacks taken from enemies. It can endure all attacks until evolution, where it can seek [[payback (move)|revenge]].

===Behavior===
It remains motionless while hanging from a tree inside its cocoon. It does not stir even if it is attacked, in which case Cascoon {{m|harden}}s. If it were to flinch in the slightest way, it would have insufficient strength upon [[evolution]]. However, once it evolves, it is hostile towards those who attacked it. To avoid detection by its enemies, it hides motionlessly beneath large leaves and in the gaps of branches. It also attaches dead leaves to its body for camouflage. It is hot inside its cocoon, and all the cells in Cascoon's body create the energy for it to evolve. When cracks appear, evolution is near.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Forest.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Forest Pokémon|Forest Pokémon]]]]
Cascoon prefer to hide and can be rare to find. They prefer to live in dark forests.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:JessieCascoon.png|thumb|right|Cascoon in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Jessie's Dustox|Jessie's Cascoon]]====
[[Jessie]]'s Wurmple evolved into Cascoon in ''[[AG024|A Corphish out of Water]]''. Jessie thought it was a {{p|Silcoon}}, however. Because of this, [[James]] and {{MTR}} were worried that Jessie would be furious when Cascoon evolved into {{p|Dustox}}.

==Game data==
===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex
|type=bug
|gen=3
|rubydex=Cascoon makes its protective cocoon by wrapping its body entirely with a fine silk from its mouth. Once the silk goes around its body, it hardens. This Pokémon prepares for its [[evolution]] inside the cocoon.
|sapphiredex=If it is attacked, Cascoon remains motionless however badly it may be hurt. It does so because if it were to move, its body would be weak upon evolution. This Pokémon will also not forget the pain it endured.
|emeralddex=To avoid detection by its enemies, it hides motionlessly beneath large leaves and in the gaps of branches. It also attaches dead leaves to its body for camouflage.
|firereddex=Its body, which is made of soft silk, hardens over time. When cracks appear, evolution is near.
|leafgreendex=Its body, which is made of soft silk, hardens over time. When cracks appear, evolution is near.

==Trivia==
*Cascoon shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, and {{p|Silcoon}}. They are all known as Cocoon Pokémon.
*Cascoon and Silcoon have the exact same base stats.
* Cascoon, {{p|Vigoroth}}, and {{p|Seadra}} are the only Pokémon that lose their pre-evolution's ability, then regain it upon evolution to their final form. (Wurmple and Dustox have the same ability, {{a|Shield Dust}}.)
*In {{game|Platinum}}, Cascoon can learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by evolution from {{p|Wurmple}}, despite not having a visible mouth.
*In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Cascoon, along with Silcoon was depicted without the spike-like protrusions on their bodies.
**However, [[James]]'s cards containing info about Pokémon showed that Silcoon and Cascoon have spikes.
*Cascoon is the only cocoon Pokémon whose Defense stat does not decrease upon evolution.
*Although it has been established that Cascoon has two eyes, none of its sprites show it with two eyes.
*Along with silcoon it can be found at level 5 in petalburg forest in ruby saphire and emrald even though it evolvs at level 7

===Origin===
Cascoon is based on the {{wp|chrysalis}} or cocoon stage of a {{wp|butterfly}} or {{wp|moth}}.
====Name origin====
Cascoon's name is likely a combination of {{tt|cask|Container, often cylindrical}} and ''{{wp|cocoon}}''. It could also be derived from ''cast'', a shell meant for immobilizing part of the body or the method of creating said shell.

''Mayuld'' is based on 繭 ''mayu'', cocoon, and ''shield''.

'''Cascoon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マユルド''' ''Mayuld'') is a {{type2|Bug}} [[Pokémon]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wurmple}} starting at [[level]] 7, and it evolves into {{p|Dustox}} starting at level 10.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Cascoon is very similar to {{p|Silcoon}} in design, being a spiked, cocoon-like Pokémon with two red eyes. However, it has a slightly darker, more purple coloration.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Cascoon has a tough cocoon, built to repel attacks taken from enemies. It can endure all attacks until evolution, where it can seek [[payback (move)|revenge]].

===Behavior===
It remains motionless while hanging from a tree inside its cocoon. It does not stir even if it is attacked, in which case Cascoon {{m|harden}}s. If it were to flinch in the slightest way, it would have insufficient strength upon [[evolution]]. However, once it evolves, it is hostile towards those who attacked it. To avoid detection by its enemies, it hides motionlessly beneath large leaves and in the gaps of branches. It also attaches dead leaves to its body for camouflage. It is hot inside its cocoon, and all the cells in Cascoon's body create the energy for it to evolve. When cracks appear, evolution is near.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Forest.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Forest Pokémon|Forest Pokémon]]]]
Cascoon prefer to hide and can be rare to find. They prefer to live in dark forests.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Jessie's Dustox|Jessie's Cascoon]]====
[[Jessie]]'s Wurmple evolved into Cascoon in ''[[AG024|A Corphish out of Water]]''. Jessie thought it was a {{p|Silcoon}}, however. Because of this, [[James]] and {{MTR}} were worried that Jessie would be furious when Cascoon evolved into {{p|Dustox}}.

==Trivia==
*Cascoon shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, and {{p|Silcoon}}. They are all known as Cocoon Pokémon.
*Cascoon and Silcoon have the exact same base stats.
* Cascoon, {{p|Vigoroth}}, and {{p|Seadra}} are the only Pokémon that lose their pre-evolution's ability, then regain it upon evolution to their final form. (Wurmple and Dustox have the same ability, {{a|Shield Dust}}.)
*In {{game|Platinum}}, Cascoon can learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by evolution from {{p|Wurmple}}, despite not having a visible mouth.
*In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Cascoon, along with Silcoon was depicted without the spike-like protrusions on their bodies.
**However, [[James]]'s cards containing info about Pokémon showed that Silcoon and Cascoon have spikes.
*Cascoon is the only cocoon Pokémon whose Defense stat does not decrease upon evolution.
*Although it has been established that Cascoon has two eyes, none of its sprites show it with two eyes.
along with silcoon it can be found at level 5 in petalburg forest in ruby saphire and emrald even though it evolvs at level 7

===Origin===
Cascoon is based on the {{wp|chrysalis}} or cocoon stage of a {{wp|butterfly}} or {{wp|moth}}.
====Name origin====
Cascoon's name is likely a combination of {{tt|cask|Container, often cylindrical}} and ''{{wp|cocoon}}''. It could also be derived from ''cast'', a shell meant for immobilizing part of the body or the method of creating said shell.

''Mayuld'' is based on 繭 ''mayu'', cocoon, and ''shield''.

Lucairo123: /* Underleveled Pokémon */

'''Levels''' are a measurement of how strong a [[Pokémon]] currently is. They are portrayed differently in the {{pkmn|anime}}, {{pkmn|games}}, and {{pkmn|manga}}.

==In the games==
[[File:Level.PNG|thumb|right|The opponent's level bar in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
Levels are featured predominantly in the Pokémon games. They are determined by how much [[experience]] that Pokémon has. A Pokémon's level will range from 1 to 100. When a Pokémon gains a level, its stats increase by a small amount. It may also learn a new [[move]] or [[evolution|evolve]]. Opponent's levels may be viewed in-battle, and {{player}}s may see their own Pokémon's levels in-battle, in the [[PC]] or by using the [[menu]].

A Pokémon's level will also affect its [[happiness]], raising it slightly when the Pokémon levels up. This means that a {{p|Pichu}} trained in battle will eventually evolve into a {{p|Pikachu}}, with its happiness going up slightly each level. Using Rare Candies will also raise happiness, though for a long time people thought it did not, due to a Pokémon's happiness also being raised by the large amount of walking that a player must do in long grass to encounter wild Pokémon or recharge such items as the [[Vs. Seeker]].

In [[Generation]]s {{gen|III}} and {{gen|IV}}, when a Pokémon has reached level 100, and has not gained maximum EV's, it cannot continue gaining [[Effort values|Effort Points]] through battle. [[Vitamin]]s can still be used to raise EV's. In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, the player can use the [[box trick]].

By exploiting the [[Missingno.]] glitch in Generation I or using other cheats, a [[Pokémon]] can temporarily acquire a level higher than 100. However, whenever this [[Pokémon]] gains any amount of [[experience]], its level will revert to 100.

In Generations I and II, Pokémon assigned to the [[Experience#Experience to level|"Medium Slow" experience formula]] (1,059,860 Exp. at level 100) were unavailable at a level below 2 due to the "Medium Slow" formula generating a negative Exp. value at level 1; this resulted in such a level 1 Pokémon jumping straight to level 100. Pokémon eggs, therefore, hatched at a standard level of 5. The Generation III overhaul addressed this error; however, eggs still hatched at level 5, likely to maintain continuity. Generation IV finally set all hatched eggs to level 1.

===Underleveled Pokémon===
Through some unique circumstances, it is possible to have Pokémon at a lower level than they are usually available. Underleveled Pokémon appeared as early as [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red and Green]], with level 4-6 {{p|Kakuna}} and {{p|Metapod}} available in [[Viridian Forest]]. Kakuna and Metapod cannot be obtained by evolution until level 7.


In [[Generation II]], by using the [[Super Rod]] in the lake at the south end of {{rt|45}}, underleveled {{p|Dragonair}} can be encountered at level 10. Also, in {{g|Yellow}}, [[James's Koffing]] evolves at a lower level than it would naturally.
in [[Generation III]] you can get level 5 {{p|Cascoon}} and {{p|Silcoon}} in [[Petalburg Woods]]
In [[Generation IV]], the key item [[PokéRadar]] lets players find rare Pokémon from outside of the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]]. Some of these, such as {{p|Kirlia}} can be found underleveled alongside their pre-evolutionary forms; an underleveled male Kirlia can also evolve into underleveled {{p|Gallade}} if given a [[Dawn Stone]].

{{p|Drapion}} is another example, which can be found fairly commonly in the [[Great Marsh]] at Levels 20-26 in [[Pastoria City]], while {{p|Skorupi}} doesn't evolve into Drapion until Level 40. Other underleveled Pokémon also be found in certain locations when utilizing the [[dual-slot mode]].

[[Lance]] has three underlevelled {{p|Dragonite}} in the [[Generation II]] games. Also, [[Mars]] has a {{p|Purugly}} at level 16 in D/P and 17 in Platinum, while {{p|Glameow}} evolves at Level 38.

Many other in-game Trainers also possess underleveled Pokémon; this is primarily done to fill the player's Pokédex at a faster rate.

In {{game|Emerald}}, the [[Pomeg glitch]] allowed players to obtain any stage of a Pokémon capable of being hatched from an egg at level 5, such as a {{p|Tyranitar}}.

===Disobedience===
When a Pokémon is obtained in a trade, it oftentimes will not obey the player's commands if it is at too high a level. The Pokémon will either ignore orders and use a different move, do nothing at all and loaf around, or go to sleep. This can be corrected if the player has the proper badges. Having less than two badges means that no traded Pokémon whose level is above 10 will obey the player, while having all eight makes all Pokémon obey the player. The specific badges that cause a rise in the level of obeying Pokémon can be found on their page, though they are typically the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth badges obtained.

==In the anime==
The concept of levels of Pokémon is not as detailed, nor as frequently mentioned, in the {{pkmn|anime}}. The first time levels were referred to was by students at the [[Pokémon Tech|Academy]] in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''. {{ka|Joe|One of them}} was able to quote the levels at which {{p|Pidgey}} and the rest of its family [[evolution|evolve]] and learn certain [[move]]s. The main characters and their Pokémon, however, remain seemingly oblivious to the idea.

[[Misty]] mentions them in ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]'' where she says "That {{p|Rhyhorn}} must be at a ''high level''!" referring to a trainer's Rhyhorn's formidable strength as it uses [[Take Down]] on [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]'s [[Ash's Bulbasaur|Bulbasaur]], severely injuring it. This confirms that she is aware of levels and that the ability to inflict damage on certain Pokémon becomes easier when a Pokémon grows a level.

[[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]] comments that [[Ash's Charizard]] is on a higher level than he thought.

[[Brock]] mentions them once, in [[EP201|''Doing What Comes Natu-rally!'']]. He states that moves become more powerful as a Pokémon's level is raised; and {{Ash}} adds that the best way to raise levels is by battling. Despite this, Ash's most used Pokémon, {{AP|Pikachu}}, doesn't show signs of being at a higher level than any other Pokémon. After appearing in more than 600 episodes, and battling in most of them, its level would be expected to be very high: but it is still defeated easily by some other Trainers' Pokémon, even those with only average strength.

[[Dawn's Piplup]] also shows that the anime doesn't strictly follow the games' system. In its debut episode, it used {{m|Bide}}, a move Piplup normally doesn't learn until level 18, by which point it would be showing signs of evolution. This did not happen until ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]''. Therefore, level up moves can generally be learned at any time in the anime.

In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!|two Mystery]] [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness|Dungeon specials]], levels are mentioned, but not explained. This may mean that Pokémon themselves understand the concept of levels in the anime but humans do not.


==Trivia==
*Before [[Generation IV]], it was impossible to get a Pokémon at level 1 without the aid of a glitch or cheating device. The lowest level Pokémon would be at level 2 in the wild, and eggs would hatch at Lv. 5. In Generation IV however, eggs are hatched at level 1, and {{p|Regigigas}} and {{p|Magikarp}} can be caught at level 1 in {{game|Platinum}}.
*In [[Generation I]], it was possible to encounter and capture Pokémon at levels over 100 through means of [[Old man glitch|a glitch]].

'''Spearow''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オニスズメ''' ''Onisuzume'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Fearow}} starting at [[level]] 20.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Spearow is a brown avian Pokémon that is very small. It has rough plumage on its head, with a beak shape similar to that of raptors, being short but hooked. Spearow’s underside is beige in coloration, with a patterning of two thin stripes. Spearow’s light-pink feet have three talons, and its wings are a pinkish-red with lighter edges. Spearow’s back is black in coloration, and it has three brown-colored tail feathers.

====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Although inept at other aspects of its flying, such as height and distance, Spearow is still capable of flying quickly to protect its territory. Spearow is described as being frail, but still allegedly capable of being a tough Pokémon due to its ability to use {{m|Mirror Move}}.

===Behavior===

Spearow are easily angered and very protective of their territory, and may chase after foes in large flocks. Spearow is required to flap its wings at incredibly high speeds to stay airborne, and thus is inept at flying high or for long distances. However, it is still capable of flying very quickly to protect its territory, and while doing such, it makes a high-pitched cry. Spearow’s cry is very loud and can be heard half a mile away, and if the cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger. Spearow is also depicted to see in black and white.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rough-terrain Pokémon|Rough-terrain Pokémon]]]]
Spearow are hardy and are usually found in rough terrain, such as desolate wastelands and fields. It is found in [[Kanto]], [[Johto]] and [[Sinnoh]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Spearow usually eat weak bug-like Pokémon such as {{p|Caterpie}} and {{p|Weedle}}. They have also been known to eat {{p|Dunsparce}} and {{p|Pidgey}} eggs.

==In the anime==
[[File:Spearow anime.png|250px|thumb|Spearow in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
{{Ash}} was attacked by a large flock of Spearow in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' after he hit one Spearow on the head with a rock to weaken it (because {{AP|Pikachu}} refused to obey and battle). The flock of Spearow returned, with the leader, the very same Spearow that Ash had hit in the first episode, as a {{p|Fearow}} in ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic!]]'' The flock reappeared in a flashback in [[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]].

===Minor appearances===
[[Ash's Charizard|Ash's Charmander]] was attacked by a flock of Spearow in ''[[EP011|Charmander – The Stray Pokémon]]''.

A [[Three punks|Trainer]] that attacked a {{AP|Lapras}} had a Spearow in ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]''.

It also appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.

Another flock of Spearow appeared in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]'', similar to the first episode.

==Trivia==
*According to the animé, Spearow cannot see color. This is seen in ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]''.
*Spearow is the only Pokémon that doesn't have three heads and isn't related to the {{p|Porygon}} family that can learn {{m|Tri Attack}}, though only via {{pkmn|breeding}}.
*Spearow shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Natu}}. They are all known as Tiny Bird Pokémon, though Natu has also been called a Little Bird Pokémon.
* Despite multiple Pokédex entries testifying to its inability to fly long distances, as well as its diminutive stature, Spearow can learn {{m|Fly}}.
* The English names of the Spearow family and {{p|Beedrill}} are almost reversed from the Japanese in that Beedrill is named Spear and {{p|Fearow}}, Spearow's evolution, is called Onidrill.

===Origin===
It has been suggested that Spearow resembles a {{wp|falcon}} of some sort rather than a {{wp|sparrow}}. Its stocky appearance is more sparrow-like, however.
====Name origin====
Spearow's name may be a combination of the words ''spear'' and ''{{wp|sparrow}}''. Its Japanese name can be taken to mean 鬼雀, demon sparrow.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Habitak - From ''Habicht'' ({{wp|hawk}}) and ''Attacke'' (attack). Also a possible allusion to ''Habitat''.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Piafabec - From ''piaf'' (sparrow) and ''bec'' (beak).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 깨비참 ''Kkaebicham''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 烈雀 ''Lìe Qîao'' - Means "fiery(-tempered) sparrow".
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 鬼雀 ''Gűi Que'' - Literally "ghost bird".

'''Koffing''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドガース''' ''Dogars'') is a {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Weezing}} starting at [[level]] 35.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Koffing is a round, purple [[Pokémon]] filled to the brim with toxic gases. Several crater-like protrusions on this Pokémon's body give it the resemblance of a naval mine. Koffing has a skull and cross-bones below its blissful face. Koffing has been considered to be related to {{p|Grimer}}, who is also a purple {{t|Poison}}-type Pokémon that associates with pollutants. Koffing may also be related to {{p|Drifloon}}, who is also a floating, round, purple, "X"-bearing Pokémon with a tendency to explode.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Koffing spews out poisonous gases whenever it gets upset. Koffing on the other hand exhales fresh, clean gases whenever it becomes happy or overjoyed. Koffing has also been known to explode from over inflating its body. Koffing is also capable of launching {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Electric}}al attacks.

===Behavior===
If Koffing becomes agitated, it raises the toxicity of its internal gases and then jets them out from all over its body. Koffing is prone to overinflating its round body before it {{M|Selfdestruct|self-destructs}}.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Urban.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Urban Pokémon|Urban Pokémon]]]]
Koffing are a very common sight around burned down buildings, abandoned buildings and power plants.

The Koffing had several powerful attacks like {{m|Sludge Bomb}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and {{m|Gyro Ball}}, but Conway's {{p|Slowking}} and [[Dawn's Piplup]] were able to defeat it.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
Koffing is seen as one of [[Koga]]'s Pokémon. When Koga and {{adv|Blue}} are ambushed by [[Agatha]]'s {{p|Gengar}} in {{PAV|7}}, Koga uses Koffing's smoke to relay his tactical plan to Blue without Gengar noticing.

==Trivia==
* Koffing is the mascot of [[Smogon]], [[Dogasu's Backpack]], and [[Pokemopolis]].
* Koffing and Weezing are the the only pure Poison-type Pokémon immune to {{type2|Ground}} attacks, due to their ability, {{a|Levitate}}.
* Koffing's original English name was going to be "Ny", representing New York City's polluted air.
* Koffing was depicted as having its skull-and-crossbones pattern being ''above'' its face in {{game|Red and Blue|s}} and the Japanese [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Pokémon Blue]], rather than the pattern being ''under'' its face as portrayed in the original versions of {{game|Red and Green|s}} and later games. It is unknown if this was purposely done or if it was a sprite error (similar to the error of {{p|Raikou}}'s sprite in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}).
* According to a question of a Pokémon Exam the characters of the anime participated in, Koffing was supposedly first discovered in a public bathhouse. However, the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} expansion's {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Koffing|58}} card states that Koffing was first discovered in a weapons factory. This may be either because [[Jessie]] answered the question incorrectly, or due to an inconsistency between the TCG and anime.
* Despite Koffing's diet of rotten garbage, it is unable to learn [[Gunk Shot]].

===Origin===
Considering its looks, its ability to float, and its tendency to explode, it may have been based upon a floating {{wp|naval mine}}.
====Name origin====
Koffing's name is a corruption of the word ''coughing''. Its Japanese name is a combination of 獰 ''dō'', meaning bad, or 毒 ''doku'', meaning poisonous, and ''{{wp|gas}}''. Its Japanese name also can come from the brazilian expression ''droga'', wich means something bad, rotten.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Smogon - Based on the English word ''{{wp|smog}}''.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Smogo - Based on the English word ''{{wp|smog}}''.

Recruitment

2010-01-11T18:01:06Z

Lucairo123: /* Recruitment rate by level */

{{incomplete}}
[[Image:Join_Horsea.JPG|thumb|right|Asking {{p|Horsea}} to join the team]]
'''Recruitment''' is [[Mystery Dungeon game mechanics|the method]] of obtaining new [[Pokémon]] in the first [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|its sequel]]. After defeating an enemy in a dungeon, it will occasionally offer to join the player's team. In the first games, offers will only be made if there is space in the current party. But in the sequels, this requirement was removed. Instead, excess members simply warp out of the dungeon. In explorers of sky, players can choose which member to send home. The games contain items that increase the chance of Pokémon asking to be recruited. These are important as the base recruit rate of certain Pokémon, most notably {{p|Kecleon}}, is below zero.

==Recruitment rate modifiers==

===basic rules of recruitment===
1.you can't recruit a pokemon who's level is higher than yours
2.in the first mystrery dungeoun games you can't recruit fully evolved pokemon and they still have low ratesin the sqeul

===Fast Friend===
The [[IQ]] Skill "Fast Friend" raises the recruitment rate by 1%. It's important to notice this 1% is crucial for recruiting Kecleon, which has a recruitment rate of -49.5% (-33.9% in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 1]]), making it impossible to be recruited with only a high level Pokémon and a Golden Mask/Amber Tear.

Fast Friend is learned only by Pokémon in IQ Groups [[List_of_Pokémon_by_IQ_group#Group B|B]] and [[List_of_Pokémon_by_IQ_group#Group H|H]].

===Recruitment-affecting items===

====[[File:MDBag Scarf Sprite.png]] Friend Bow====

*'''Sell for:''' N/A
*'''Where to find:''' [[Mt. Faraway]] (key required), shops in [[Joyous Tower]]/[[Zero Isle North]]
*'''Use:''' Raises the recruitment rate of the user's Pokémon by 10%.

In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Red and Blue versions]], the only such item to increase recruitment is the Friend Bow. When held by the leading Pokémon, it raises the recruitment rate by 10%. The bow is located behind a door needing a [[key]] to open on floor 30 of [[Mt. Faraway]]. Further Friend Bows can be purchased from {{p|Kecleon}} shops in [[Joyous Tower]]. In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Time and Darkness versions]], the Friend Bow is supplemented with a number of other items, but can still be bought from Kecleon Shops in [[Zero Isle North]].

====[[File:MDBag Amber Tear Sprite.png]] Amber Tear====
*'''Price:''' N/A
*'''Sell for:''' N/A
*'''Where to find:''' [[Zero Isle West]]
*'''Use:''' "Maximally raises" the user's recruitment rate, i.e., raises it by 24%.

The Amber Tear can only be found in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2. The Amber Tear can be located on floor B40F of [[Zero Isle West]], or given as a reward for a mission in search of the Amber Tear. It has the ability to maximally raise the user's recruitment rate.

*'''Price:''' N/A
*'''Sell for:''' N/A
*'''Where to find:''' [[Zero Isle North]]

Photography

2009-12-22T21:05:43Z

Lucairo123: /* pokemon diamond pearl and platinum */

[[File:HGSSphoto.jpg|thumb|right|{{ga|Gold}} takes a picture with his [[party]]]]
The concept of '''photography''' has appeared in many Pokémon games. Starting with its introduction in the game [[Pokémon Snap]], photography has appeared in several other games since.

==In the games==
===Pokémon Snap===
In {{g|Snap}}, the entire game is based around the concept of photography. In Pokémon Snap, the player (as [[Todd Snap]]) must take the best possible photographs of the 63 Pokémon findable on [[Pokémon Island]] for [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Pokémon Report]].

The player controls the [[camera]] from a first-person perspective. To view through the camera lens, the player must hold the "Z" button. The shutter button is operated with the "A" button. In the game, the player can receive tools to aid their picture-taking such as [[Pokémon food]], [[Pester Ball]]s, and the [[Poké Flute]].

For a period of time after the release of Pokémon Snap, '''Pokémon Snap Sticker Stations''' were available at {{wp|Blockbuster (movie rental store)|Blockbuster Video}} stores, which allowed a player to print out their photos on stickers for $3. These Sticker Stations were available in the USA and Canada. In the [[Wii]] [[Virtual Console]] version, players can post them to the Wii's Address book.

===pokemon diamond pearl and platinum===

===Pokémon Stadium===
In {{OBP|Pokémon Stadium|English}}, there is a "Gallery" mode where players can take photographs of their Pokémon. A player may photograph Pokémon from their [[Generation I]] [[Game Boy]] game (using the [[Transfer Pak]]) or they may photograph the game's [[rental Pokémon]]. The controls are identical to that of Pokémon Snap, but without the extra items such as the [[Pester Ball]]s. Photos taken in Gallery Mode could be printed on stickers at the Pokémon Snap Sticker Stations.

===My Pokémon Ranch===
In [[My Pokémon Ranch]], players are able to take photos of their Pokémon during any of the random ranch events (such as the Clock and the Totem Pole) or when they are playing with any of the toys that a player may buy for their Pokémon. The quality of the photo can be increased with the "Focus Lock" function. 

===Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver===
[[File:HGSS_Photo.png|thumb|right|{{ga|Kotone}} and {{p|Slowbro}} take a picture with [[Professor Oak]]]]
[[File:HGSS Photographer.png|thumb|right|A photographer in the [[Dragon's Den]]]]
In [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions]], there are many areas in [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]] where the player may take photos of {{ga|Gold|him}}/{{ga|Kotone|her}}self and their [[Walking Pokémon|partner]], although the player will often be able to photograph themselves with their entire party. These photos are recorded in a photo album (which stores up to 36 photos in the [[PC]]). A man will periodically be found in both Kanto and Johto at varying times. He will take pictures of the player's party and the surrounding area.

In ''[[DP103|Jumping Rocket Ship!]]'', Team Rocket disguise themselves as photographers in an attempt to capture the Pokémon of {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr|his friends}}.

===Behavior===
Extremely rare in the wild, Chansey is said to bring happiness to those who are lucky enough to capture it. Chansey lays a new egg every day. The egg is extremely nutritious and tasty.

==Trivia==
* Chansey originally was given her Japanese name, Lucky, as her English beta name.
* Chansey has the second-highest base HP of all Pokémon. The highest is Chansey's evolution, Blissey.
** Both of them however, have the lowest base stat for both Attack and Defense in the games.
* Chansey has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with its family {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Blissey}}, and {{p|Arceus}}. That means a Chansey would yield 13,933 experience points when defeated if it is at [[level]] 100 and belongs to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.
* Chansey is one of five Pokémon that initially did not evolve into or from another Pokémon, but now is part of a three-stage evolutionary line (the other four being {{p|Electabuzz}}, {{p|Magmar}}, {{p|Porygon}} and {{p|Roselia}}). Interestingly, while Electabuzz and Magmar gained a pre-evolution in [[Generation II]] and an evolution in [[Generation IV]], Chansey did exactly the reverse in both generations.
* Chansey, and her evolution family, Blissey and Happiny, have the most in-game items associated with them. This includes: [[Lucky Punch]], [[Lucky Egg]], {{DL|Incense|Luck Incense}}, and the [[Oval Stone]].
* Chansey shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Exeggcute}}. They are both known as the Egg Pokémon.
* {{p|Golbat}} and Chansey are the only Pokémon that evolve by [[happiness]] that are already evolved.
* Chansey and the other members of her evolution family share the same abilities as both forms of {{p|Shaymin}}.
* In Generation II and beyond, when breeding was introduced, Chansey hatch from an egg with an egg already in their pouch. The same oddity occurs with {{p|Kangaskhan}}, which hatch with a baby in their pouches, and {{p|Happiny}}, which hatch with a rock in their pouches.
** Its {{V2|Platinum}} Pokédex entry states that it lays eggs, confirming that Pokémon are able to do so (as it has been mentioned that nobody has seen Pokémon lay eggs); however, these eggs are apparently not Happiny eggs, but eggs that are high in nutrition instead. Theoretically, these eggs could possibly be undeveloped Happiny eggs.

===Origin===
Her tendency to carry eggs in a pouch is very {{wp|monotreme}}- or {{wp|marsupial}}-like. She may also just be based on a general concept of females and motherhood.
====Name origin====
Chansey's name is a corruption of ''chance''; like her Japanese name, ''Lucky'', it seems to refer to Chansey's rarity.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Chaneira
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Leveinard - From ''Le veinard'' ("The lucky one").
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 럭키 ''Rakki'' - Transliteration of the English word ''Lucky''.

'''Chansey''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラッキー''' ''Lucky'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.

She [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Happiny}} when [[level]]ed up holding an [[Oval Stone]] during the day, and evolves into {{p|Blissey}} via [[happiness]].

===Physiology===
Chansey have pink, egg-shaped bodies. They have hair-like outgrowths on the side of their heads instead of a pigtail she had as a Happiny. Chansey have stubby limbs and has grown a short tail. Chansey's lower body is fully developed and they now have a pouch that holds an egg.

====Special abilities====

===Behavior===
Extremely rare in the wild, Chansey is said to bring happiness to those who are lucky enough to capture it. Chansey lays a new egg every day. The egg is extremely nutritious and tasty.

==Trivia==
* Chansey originally was given her Japanese name, Lucky, as her English beta name.
* Chansey has the second-highest base HP of all Pokémon. The highest is Chansey's evolution, Blissey.
** Both of them however, have the lowest base stat for both Attack and Defense in the games.
* Chansey has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with its family {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Blissey}}, and {{p|Arceus}}. That means a Chansey would yield 13,933 experience points when defeated if it is at [[level]] 100 and belongs to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.
* Chansey is one of five Pokémon that initially did not evolve into or from another Pokémon, but now is part of a three-stage evolutionary line (the other four being {{p|Electabuzz}}, {{p|Magmar}}, {{p|Porygon}} and {{p|Roselia}}). Interestingly, while Electabuzz and Magmar gained a pre-evolution in [[Generation II]] and an evolution in [[Generation IV]], Chansey did exactly the reverse in both generations.
* Chansey, and her evolution family, Blissey and Happiny, have the most in-game items associated with them. This includes: [[Lucky Punch]], [[Lucky Egg]], {{DL|Incense|Luck Incense}}, and the [[Oval Stone]].
* Chansey shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Exeggcute}}. They are both known as the Egg Pokémon.
* {{p|Golbat}} and Chansey are the only Pokémon that evolve by [[happiness]] that are already evolved.
* Chansey and the other members of her evolution family share the same abilities as both forms of {{p|Shaymin}}.
* In Generation II and beyond, when breeding was introduced, Chansey hatch from an egg with an egg already in their pouch. The same oddity occurs with {{p|Kangaskhan}}, which hatch with a baby in their pouches, and {{p|Happiny}}, which hatch with a rock in their pouches.
** Its {{V2|Platinum}} Pokédex entry states that it lays eggs, confirming that Pokémon are able to do so (as it has been mentioned that nobody has seen Pokémon lay eggs); however, these eggs are apparently not Happiny eggs, but eggs that are high in nutrition instead. Theoretically, these eggs could possibly be undeveloped Happiny eggs.

===Origin===
Her tendency to carry eggs in a pouch is very {{wp|monotreme}}- or {{wp|marsupial}}-like. She may also just be based on a general concept of females and motherhood.
====Name origin====
Chansey's name is a corruption of ''chance''; like her Japanese name, ''Lucky'', it seems to refer to Chansey's rarity.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Chaneira
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Leveinard - From ''Le veinard'' ("The lucky one").
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 럭키 ''Rakki'' - Transliteration of the English word ''Lucky''.

===Major Appearances===
{{Ash}}, [[Misty]], and [[Professor Oak]] have owned Seaking in the past, though Ash and Misty released theirs only a short time after capturing it, due to the rules of the competition. It should be noted that Professor Oak's Seaking was invented by the [[dub]].

[[Juan]] also owns a Seaking, which was used in a [[Gym]] battle against Ash in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]''. Juan's Seaking was able to block {{t|Electric}} attacks with {{m|Horn Drill}} and send them back at its opponent.

==Trivia==
*Seaking's prototype name was "{{wp|Neptune}}", named after the god of the sea in Roman mythology.
*Seaking is the subject of a meme on the *chan sites: "F*** YEAH SEAKING." This meme centers around Seaking destroying things.
*Seaking and Goldeen are the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Waterfall}} through leveling up. This makes it one of few Pokémon released to be able to learn an HM move by level-up.
*Despite being called '''Sea'''king, it is found in fresh water, like real life {{wp|goldfish}}.
**In the [[Pal Park]], it is found in the Pond Area.
* Seakings's number in the [[sdex|Sinnoh Dex]] and the [[jdex|Johto Dex]] is the same: 079. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising thirteen Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one [[Pokédex]]-like listing.
*In the anime, Seaking is the only Pokémon that both Ash and Misty have owned.
**Ironically, both Seaking were caught and released in a single episode.
*Seaking bears an odd resemblance to the ''Looney Tunes'' version of Peter Lorre, with the black marks on its head and under its eyes, its large, round eyes, oversized lips, and two-teethed overbite.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on a species of {{wp|goldfish}} known as Azuma Nishiki (東錦). The horn part may be based on Matsya, an avatar that the hindu god {{wp|Vishnu}} assumed, which is sometimes depicted as a fish with a horn.
====Name origin====
Seaking's name is simply a combination of ''sea'' and ''king'' (seeking?). Its Japanese name may be based on 小豆鱒 ''azukimasu'', {{wp|rock cod}} and 魔王 ''ma-ō'', devil king. Interestingly enough, its Japanese name may also be taken to literally mean 東王 ''azuma-ō'', East king. Furthermore, an アズマニシキ ''azumanishiki'' is a kind of goldfish. Likely the name is meant to compliment Goldeen's "queenliness" with a combination of the Azuma Nishiki (東錦) goldfish and the Japanese word for king, ''ou'' (王).

==In other languages==
* [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Golking
* [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Poissoroy - From ''poisson'' (fish). ''Roy'' could be a mispelling of ''roi'' (king).
* [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 왕콘치 ''Wangkonchi''

{{bulbanews|game}}
'''My Pokémon Ranch''' (Japanese: '''みんなのポケモン''' ''Everyone's Pokémon Ranch'') is a WiiWare title that was announced at Nintendo's fall 2007 conference. It was developed by [[Ambrella]] and can be purchased for 1,000 Wii Points. [[Pokémon]] can be transferred from {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} and stored on a farm. The {{player}} can use up to 8 Diamond and Pearl games to send their Pokémon, which then can be organized in the ranch by factors like height and weight. Hayley will give the player information on the Pokémon, which will be different from the info in the games. She will also bring a Pokémon each day to the ranch for which the player can trade. She will ask what type of Pokémon she will bring to the ranch next.

The farm is owned by [[Hayley]], a friend of [[Bebe]]'s. Players can sort, take pictures, and interact with up to 1,000 of their Pokémon.

It is essentially a [[Generation IV]] version of [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire|Pokémon Box]]. However, it is notable that Pokémon Ranch is similar to [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] in that it will only interact with specific save files. This means that if a Pokémon is placed on the ranch, only the game from which it was placed onto the ranch may take the Pokémon back off it. This prevents people storing Pokémon and starting a new game - something for which previous storage titles were quite useful.

'''The title is not compatible with Pokémon Platinum outside of Japan.'''

==Features==
*My Pokémon Ranch is able to connect, store and withdraw Pokémon from 8 different {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} or {{game|Platinum}} (in Japan only) game cards using the [[Nintendo DS]]'s connectivity. It is able to store up to 1,000 Pokémon at a time; however, the number rises to 1,500 after the Platinum update is applied.
*Pokémon and Miis can interact in full 3D on the Wii. A Pokémon's behavior in the ranch can be determined by the Pokémon's [[nature]], [[moves]], etc.
*The player is able to take pictures at any time when on the ranch and save them to the message board or a SD card. Taking pictures of objects can be made easier by applying a Focus Lock or spinning the screen around using the Nunchuk.
*Using WiiConnect24, the player can send pictures he or she has taken on the ranch to other friends.
*On occasions, the player and [[Hayley]] can trade Pokémon on the ranch. Her traded Pokémon can be withdrawn onto the player's {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} or {{game|Platinum}} game card.
*A Pokémon's {{shiny2}} coloring, alternate forms, and [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]] are visible in the game.
*If a Pokémon came from a special place or is [[level 100]], they will sparkle in a green or blue hue, respectively.

==Pokémon==
[[Image:Yukari.png|250px|thumb|left|Hayley]]
===Wanted Pokémon===
[[Image:RanchRequestGliscor.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Details on how to catch a Wanted Pokémon]]
Once a player has stored Pokémon for the first time, Hayley will take the player's [[Pokédex]] data and from it, request "Wanted Pokémon", Pokémon that are typically not yet in the player's Pokédex (although once the player has caught a lot of Pokémon, she may request one that the player has already caught). The game will provide the player with all the information on acquiring the listed Pokémon, including information on a Pokémon's pre-evolved form, and if an item is needed to evolve it, where that item can be found. This can be used to both assist and motivate said player into completing their Pokédex. The player is given 10 days to acquire this Pokémon until the post is removed and a new one is made. "Wanted Pokémon" requests are tied to specific game cards, if one trainer deposits a Pokémon that is on another's wanted list, nothing will happen. If all of a player's Wanted posts expire, Hayley will occasionally ask the player to connect their DS so new ones can be made.

===Hayley's Trades===
{{main|Hayley's trades}}

Whenever the player brings in one of the "Wanted Pokémon", Hayley will offer to trade one of her Pokémon for it, and the Pokémon received will be one of the following twenty and will know a TM, egg move, or have something else that makes them unique.

All of these Pokémon will have the [[Original Trainer|OT]] Hayley (English) or ユカリ (Japanese) and the [[Trainer ID number]] 01000. Note that all of the Pokémon with specific natures cannot have a different nature, gender, and ability and they cannot be shiny.

===Special Pokémon===
These two Pokémon are only available once some requirements are filled. Once 250 Pokémon are present on the ranch, the ranch will expand and jump to a new level. When this level is obtained, Hayley will add a new Pokémon to the "Wanted" board, {{p|Leafeon}}. When Leafeon is brought to the ranch, she will offer to trade it for her {{p|Phione}}. When 999 Pokémon are present, the ranch will expand and jump to level 25, the maximum level. Once this level is obtained, a new wanted Pokémon will be added. Hayley is now asking for any [[Pokémon egg]]. When the egg is brought, she will offer to trade it for her Mew.

* Attractor - A magnetic device that Miis can use to draw Pokémon to them.
* Balloons - Balloons that a Pokémon can attach to their head in order to fly around.

* Burst ball - A large round explosive that explodes whenever Pokémon touch it, sending them flying.
* Challenger - A dummy for Pokémon to use their attacks on.

==Club Look-See==
{{main|Club Look-See}}

[[Club Look-See]] is a group of people that will come to the Ranch and invite the player to see their ranch. Each member is assigned a number (#1, #2, and so on) and they will appear in order of their number. Each member's ranch has a certain theme, this means that each of their ranches is filled with a certain Pokémon. Each member's Mii also typically bears some resemblance to the Pokémon they have. These are special occurrences that will happen periodically.

==Reception==
My Pokémon Ranch received generally negative reviews. The largest criticisms of the game was the lack of interaction with the game,[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/wiiware-my-pokemon-ranch-and-pop-review] and the fact that the player has to own a copy of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} for the majority of the game's features to be accessible.[http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/881/881343p1.html] In addition, some reviewers criticized the game's Mii-like graphics, with IGN calling it "the ugliest Pokémon game to hit any video game system".[http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/881/881343p1.html] The game received an average score of 47% on [http://www.metacritic.com/search/process.shtml?page=3&sid=MTIzMDk4MzM1OTU2Ny44MjUxNzcz&sort=relevance&ts=pokemon&y=7&termType=all&ty=3&x=19 Metacritic.]

==Trivia==
*Hayley appears in the [[Generation IV]] games in [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s with her {{p|Buneary}} named "Floppy". This is a reference to her Buneary in this game that players can trade another Pokémon for and transfer to the DS.

{{bulbanews|game}}
'''My Pokémon Ranch''' (Japanese: '''みんなのポケモン''' ''Everyone's Pokémon Ranch'') is a WiiWare title that was announced at Nintendo's fall 2007 conference. It was developed by [[Ambrella]] and can be purchased for 1,000 Wii Points. [[Pokémon]] can be transferred from {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} and stored on a farm. The {{player}} can use up to 8 Diamond and Pearl games to send their Pokémon, which then can be organized in the ranch by factors like height and weight. Hayley will give the player information on the Pokémon, which will be different from the info in the games. She will also bring a Pokémon each day to the ranch for which the player can trade. She will ask what type of Pokémon she will bring to the ranch next.

The farm is owned by [[Hayley]], a friend of [[Bebe]]'s. Players can sort, take pictures, and interact with up to 1,000 of their Pokémon.

It is essentially a [[Generation IV]] version of [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire|Pokémon Box]]. However, it is notable that Pokémon Ranch is similar to [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] in that it will only interact with specific save files. This means that if a Pokémon is placed on the ranch, only the game from which it was placed onto the ranch may take the Pokémon back off it. This prevents people storing Pokémon and starting a new game - something for which previous storage titles were quite useful.

'''The title is not compatible with Pokémon Platinum outside of Japan.'''

==Features==
*My Pokémon Ranch is able to connect, store and withdraw Pokémon from 8 different {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} or {{game|Platinum}} (in Japan only) game cards using the [[Nintendo DS]]'s connectivity. It is able to store up to 1,000 Pokémon at a time; however, the number rises to 1,500 after the Platinum update is applied.
*Pokémon and Miis can interact in full 3D on the Wii. A Pokémon's behavior in the ranch can be determined by the Pokémon's [[nature]], [[moves]], etc.
*The player is able to take pictures at any time when on the ranch and save them to the message board or a SD card. Taking pictures of objects can be made easier by applying a Focus Lock or spinning the screen around using the Nunchuk.
*Using WiiConnect24, the player can send pictures he or she has taken on the ranch to other friends.
*On occasions, the player and [[Hayley]] can trade Pokémon on the ranch. Her traded Pokémon can be withdrawn onto the player's {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} or {{game|Platinum}} game card.
*A Pokémon's {{shiny2}} coloring, alternate forms, and [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]] are visible in the game.
*If a Pokémon came from a special place or is [[level 100]], they will sparkle in a green or blue hue, respectively.

==Pokémon==
[[Image:Yukari.png|250px|thumb|left|Hayley]]
===Wanted Pokémon===
[[Image:RanchRequestGliscor.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Details on how to catch a Wanted Pokémon]]
Once a player has stored Pokémon for the first time, Hayley will take the player's Pokédex data and from it, request "Wanted Pokémon", Pokémon that are typically not yet in the player's Pokédex (although once the player has caught a lot of Pokémon, she may request one that the player has already caught). The game will provide the player with all the information on acquiring the listed Pokémon, including information on a Pokémon's pre-evolved form, and if an item is needed to evolve it, where that item can be found. This can be used to both assist and motivate said player into completing their Pokédex. The player is given 10 days to acquire this Pokémon until the post is removed and a new one is made. "Wanted Pokémon" requests are tied to specific game cards, if one trainer deposits a Pokémon that is on another's wanted list, nothing will happen. If all of a player's Wanted posts expire, Hayley will occasionally ask the player to connect their DS so new ones can be made.

===Hayley's Trades===
{{main|Hayley's trades}}

Whenever the player brings in one of the "Wanted Pokémon", Hayley will offer to trade one of her Pokémon for it, and the Pokémon received will be one of the following twenty and will know a TM, egg move, or have something else that makes them unique.

All of these Pokémon will have the [[Original Trainer|OT]] Hayley (English) or ユカリ (Japanese) and the [[Trainer ID number]] 01000. Note that all of the Pokémon with specific natures cannot have a different nature, gender, and ability and they cannot be shiny.

===Special Pokémon===
These two Pokémon are only available once some requirements are filled. Once 250 Pokémon are present on the ranch, the ranch will expand and jump to a new level. When this level is obtained, Hayley will add a new Pokémon to the "Wanted" board, {{p|Leafeon}}. When Leafeon is brought to the ranch, she will offer to trade it for her {{p|Phione}}. When 999 Pokémon are present, the ranch will expand and jump to level 25, the maximum level. Once this level is obtained, a new wanted Pokémon will be added. Hayley is now asking for any [[Pokémon egg]]. When the egg is brought, she will offer to trade it for her Mew.
