'''Salamence''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ボーマンダ''' ''Bohmander'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Shelgon}} starting at [[level]] 50. It is the final form of {{p|Bagon}}.

Salamence can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Salamence''' using the [[Salamencite]]. Mega Salamence was introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

It is referred to as a [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] by fans.

The [[Paradox Pokémon]] {{p|Roaring Moon}} is said to be an ancient relative of Mega Salamence or a version of it from a parallel timeline.

==Biology==
[[File:Sugimori Salamence AG.jpg|thumb|left|250px|{{aniseries|AG}} reference sheet]]
Salamence is a quadrupedal, draconic {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a long, tapering tail. It is primarily blue with a gray lower jaw and thickly scaled underside. There are red markings on its throat, the underside of its tail, and stripes on the inner surface of its legs. Additionally, there are raised red ridges above its eyes. Three flat fins protrude from either side of its head, possibly acting in the same manner that a {{wp|Canard (aeronautics)|Canard}} would on an aircraft. It has two pairs of pointed teeth, one in the upper jaw and one in the lower. Each of its short legs has three claws, capable of slicing through nearly any material. Salamence is considered an unusual Pokémon due to the circumstances of its Evolution; its fervent desire to fly triggered a cellular mutation that allowed it to suddenly grow large, red wings.

Its long-held dream fulfilled at last, Salamence constantly flies around and releases intense blasts of fire as an expression of its joy. It only stops flying when it gets exhausted and needs to sleep. If enraged, it loses all sense of self and flies into an uncontrollable rampage, destroying everything around it until it tires itself out. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain}}, and it competes with {{p|Garchomp}} in midair for food. As mentioned in the [[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]], Salamence flutters its wings even while it sleeps.

===Forms===
Salamence can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Salamence.

As Mega Salamence, its wings meld together into a single huge, crescent-shaped wing. Its face, neck, body, and tail are narrower, and its tail is noticeably shorter in length. The ridges above its eyes are now far less prominent, and it no longer possesses the thick, gray scaling over its lower jaw. Instead, the smooth red flesh underneath has been left exposed, increasing its streamlined appearance. The upper pair of fins resting on the sides of its head are now elongated and tapered. The lower pair has not changed much. However, the middle set now takes the form of quarter-arches, spanning towards the bridge of the nose. The remnants of its shelled underbelly have been drastically transformed into a segmented, more aerodynamic, vest-like armored frame. This frame encases its chest and shoulders with the pieces interlocking whenever Mega Salamence tucks in its front forelegs.

According to ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', the hard, yet very flexible properties of its wings allow them to be used as blades in mid-air battles. The stress of Salamence's vaunted wings becoming misshapen in its Mega Evolution aggravates it to the point of rampaging. This fuels its already brutal nature and makes it likely to turn against the Trainer who raised it. Because of this, Mega Salamence is feared as "the blood-soaked crescent". It is an extremely fast and nimble flier, able to navigate complex topography with ease, and any object in Salamence's path gets sliced in two by its blade-like wings, posing no interruption to its flight.<ref>[http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/new-mega-evolutions/mega-salamence Mega Salamence | Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20150207095003/http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/new-mega-evolutions/mega-salamence archived])</ref>

{{p|Roaring Moon}} bears a resemblance to Mega Salamence, but it’s unclear if there is any connection between the two. According to [[AI Sada]], the Pokémon is an ancestor of Salamence from the ancient past. However, according to a version of [[Professor Sada]] that was summoned at the [[Crystal Pool]], it is a counterpart of Salamence from a {{pkmn|multiverse|parallel timeline}}.

===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]]: Salamence is a member of {{OBP|Munna|Gates to Infinity}}'s gang, working for {{OBP|Kyurem|Gates to Infinity}} to stop any humans called upon by {{OBP|Hydreigon|Gates to Infinity}} from destroying the [[Bittercold]]. He aids his companions in pursuing the player and their partner, but are outmaneuvered by Hydreigon. Salamence, along with two {{p|Chandelure}}, later attempt to stop the player and their allies from reaching the [[Glacier Palace]], but are defeated.

===Pokémon Adventures===
{{main|Zinnia's Salamence}}
When {{adv|Ruby}} was a child, he {{pkmn|battle}}d a Salamence that attacked him and {{adv|Sapphire}} while the two were playing outside. After being defeated by Ruby and having scarred his forehead with its {{m|Dragon Claw}} in the process, the Salamence went on a rampage and destroyed a lab, freeing {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}}, which was in captivity at that time, in the process. This resulted in [[Norman]] being banned from the [[Gym Leader]] test for five years. This encounter changed both Ruby and Sapphire and their views on Pokémon, as well as themselves. In Ruby's case, he felt he was too strong, and in order to keep himself back, he focused on [[Pokémon Contest]]s. Sapphire, on the other hand, felt weak after the encounter and decided she had to become stronger, and spent much of her time in the wild honing her battle skills. It appeared in a flashback in ''[[PS252|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV]]''. In the {{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, where [[Zinnia]] was revealed to be its owner, it had obtained a [[Salamencite]], allowing it to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Salamence.

In ''[[PS304|Swanky Showdown with Swalot]]'', [[Tucker]] is shown to be in possession of another Salamence, with which he defeats Sapphire. While Sapphire acknowledges the man's overwhelming skill, she also adds that such a Pokémon is a hard one to fight against with her phobic old experience many years back.

A Salamence appeared in a flashback in ''[[PS580|Flabébé Blooms]]''.

In ''[[PS600|Gorebyss Changes Color]]'', a Salamence appeared as a silhouette during {{Steven}}'s explanation about the [[Draconid people]].

[[Anabel]] owns a Salamence, which first appeared in ''[[PASM23|Battle in Vast Poni Canyon]]''.

===Pokémon Battle Frontier===

==In the TFG==
One Salamence figure has been released.
* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Salamence|13}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Salamence appears as a {{sbw|Spirit}}.

==Trivia==
* Salamence shares its {{pkmn|category}} with the {{p|Horsea}} and {{p|Dratini}} evolutionary lines, along with [[Kalos]]ian {{p|Goodra}}. They are all known as the Dragon Pokémon.
* From Generations [[Generation IV|IV]] through [[Generation VII|VII]], Salamence is unable to learn {{m|Iron Defense}} from a Move Tutor, while its pre-Evolution can.
* Salamence is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon introduced before [[Generation IX]] who is not known to be owned by a member of the current [[World Coronation Series|Masters Eight]] in {{aniseries|JN}}.
* Excluding {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], Mega Salamence is the only [[Mega Evolution]] introduced in [[Generation VI]] that is not present in {{g|Champions}} as of [[Regulation Set M-B]].

===Origin===
Salamence seems to be based on the archetypal {{wp|European dragon}}. It may also be based on a {{wp|salamander}}, most likely the {{wp|Hida salamander}} or {{wp|Anderson's salamander}}; this is backed up by Salamence featuring three prominent finlets on either side of its head, which can be interpreted as {{wp|external gills}}. These external gills are typical for many species of amphibians. Alternatively, it might take inspiration from the {{wp|Salamanders in folklore|mythical animal of the same name}}, which is often conflated with dragons or treated as a dragon, as evidenced by its ability to learn numerous {{type|Fire}} moves by leveling up, and its [[Pokédex]] entry describing its propensity for breathing fire.

Mega Salamence's wing and head shape resemble that of a {{wp|Fighter aircraft|fighter jet}}. Mega Salamence tucking in its front legs into the gaps on its belly, as well as its stiff yet flexible wings, may be based on {{wp|Hang gliding|hang gliding}}. Its name, "the blood-soaked crescent", could be a reference to {{wp|Lunar eclipse|blood moons}}.

====Name origin====
Salamence may be a combination of ''{{wp|Salamander (disambiguation)|salamander}}'' and ''menace'', ''vengeance'', ''vehemence'', ''violence'', or ''immense''.

Bohmander may be a combination of 暴 ''bō'' (violent) and ''salamander''.

'''Zygarde''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジガルデ''' ''Zygarde'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ground}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VI]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Zygarde has three main [[#Form data|forms]]: '''10% Forme''', '''50% Forme''', and '''Complete Forme'''. Zygarde, exclusively in its Complete Forme, can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Zygarde''' using the [[Zygardite]]. All forms of Zygarde are composed of '''[[Zygarde Core]]s''' and '''[[Zygarde Cell]]s'''.

Zygarde can switch between its 10% and 50% Formes at the [[Reassembly Unit]] or with the [[Zygarde Cube]]. If its [[Ability]] is {{a|Power Construct}} and its [[HP]] drops below half, then Zygarde in either form will change into its Complete Forme. (Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Form data|Game data→Form data]] for these details.)

Zygarde, {{p|Xerneas}}, and {{p|Yveltal}} are often collectively referred to as the [[Aura trio]] by fans.

Zygarde 50% Forme was introduced in {{g|X and Y}}, having no forme name originally. Zygarde 10% Forme and Zygarde Complete Forme, as well as the Zygarde Cells and Zygarde Cores, were revealed in the October 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine and later introduced in {{g|Sun and Moon}}. Mega Zygarde was introduced in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}.

{{ga|Zygarde}} plays a [[Game mascot|central role]] in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, serving as one of the game's key figures. A [[Squishy|Zygarde Core]] plays an important role in the ''[[S19|XY&Z]]'' arc of {{aniseries|XY}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Zygarde Core SM concept art.png|thumb|left|170px|Zygarde Cores make up the brain of the species]]
Zygarde is a green and black {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} composed of smaller units known as [[Zygarde Core]]s and [[Zygarde Cell]]s, who collectively define its appearance and power by assembling in different percentages. In all of Zygarde's forms, the various Cores and Cells are represented as green and black hexagons that glow when it attacks. It has also been shown to be able to fly in all of its forms.

Zygarde is the guardian of the [[Pokémon world]]'s ecosystem,<ref>[[Legendary and Mythical Guidebook: Deluxe Edition]]: ''"It is said this [[Legendary Pokémon]] is a guardian of the ecosystem."''</ref><ref>[https://legends.pokemon.com/en-us/story-world/pokemon/zygarde50 Zygarde 50% Forme | Pokémon Legends: Z-A]</ref> and is responsible for monitoring it for abnormalities from caves such as [[Kalos]]'s [[Terminus Cave]] and [[Alola]]'s [[Resolution Cave]]. Zygarde is described as a being that seeks to correct excess, find moderation, and restore balance. It is capable of {{a|Aura Break|reversing}} the effects of {{p|Xerneas}}'s {{a|Fairy Aura}} and {{p|Yveltal}}'s {{a|Dark Aura}}, thus ensuring the equilibrium of the cycle of life and death are kept in check.<ref>''"[[Kalos]]ian Legends: {{p|Xerneas}}, the Life Pokémon, and {{p|Yveltal}}, the Destruction Pokémon, both hail from the beautiful Kalos [[region]]. While they stand in opposition, the Order Pokémon Zygarde is said to help keep the ecosystem in equilibrium."'' - ''[[Pokémon Ultra Sun & Pokémon Ultra Moon: The Official Alola Region Strategy Guide]]'', page 282</ref> Normally, Zygarde avoids getting involved in conflicts unless the ecosystem is in grave danger.<ref>[http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/legendary_pokemon/ Pokémon X and Pokémon Y | Legendary Pokémon!] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160219214237/http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/legendary_pokemon/ archived])</ref> It is also known to ask for [[human]]s to assist it in protecting the ecosystem when necessary, but can still be wary of those it does not trust. In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga and in {{aniseries|PTS}}, it has been referred to as "Z". In the animated series, a Zygarde Core and two Zygarde in their 50% Forme have had the green coloration on their bodies changed to red as a result of the influence of [[Team Flare]]'s [[Mega Evolution]] energy weapon; moreover, all of their formes were depicted as capable of [[Talking Pokémon|human speech]] via telepathy.

Zygarde is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the [[move]]s {{m|Land's Wrath}}, {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, {{m|Thousand Waves}}, and {{m|Core Enforcer}}. It is also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Aura Break}} and {{a|Power Construct}} as its {{Abilities}}.

===Zygarde Cores and Zygarde Cells===

| class="roundy" width="50%" style="background:#{{unknown color light}}; padding:5px" | {{color2|000|Zygarde Core}} [[File:718Zygarde-Core.png|100px]]

|}
Physically, a Zygarde Core and a Zygarde Cell are almost identical. Both are small, green, cell-like blobs that resemble a {{wp|planarian}}. Their bodies are gelatinous, semitranslucent, and can be segmented into three sections: a large, round head, an abdomen with a colored hexagon, and a stubby tail. They have two eyes, though one is larger and has a pupil, and can stand on their tail (a trait most associated with the Core). The difference between a Core and a Cell is subtle: Cores have a black pupil and a red hexagon embedded inside their abdomen, while these are both green on Cells.

On their own, neither Cores nor Cells have the power to battle, needing to assemble in order to take action. The Cells exist in far greater numbers than the Cores and, therefore, make up the majority of any given form of Zygarde. However, they lack wills of their own and can only act in accordance to the orders of a Core. The Cores act as Zygarde's brain,<ref name=CoresCells>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygardes-cores-and-cells/ Zygarde's Cores and Cells | Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160814031551/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygardes-cores-and-cells/ archived])</ref> and Zygarde may have up to five of them. It can also use its Cells for [[move|attacks]], such as raining them down like {{m|Thousand Arrows|arrows}} or scattering them throughout the ground in {{m|Thousand Waves|waves}} before they're recalled into its body. When Zygarde exhausts all of its power, it splits back into individual Cores and Cells and scatters all over the world, reaching even far-off lands. While in this state, they absorb the native power of said lands and may request assistance from [[human]]s in order to reassemble.<ref>[[Lysandre|L]]: ''"When Zygarde used up its strength protecting {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from the light of [[ultimate weapon]]... its parts scattered to far-off places, absorbing the power of those lands and seeking [[human]]s who would give it aid."'' ({{g|Legends: Z-A}})</ref> As seen in various media, the Zygarde Cells demonstrated some form of will of their own and are capable of moving independently, without a Zygarde Core commanding them.

===Forms===
Zygarde has three forms: 10% Forme, 50% Forme, and Complete Forme, which are composed of [[Zygarde Core]]s and [[Zygarde Cell]]s. Zygarde Complete Forme can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Zygarde.

====10% Forme====
[[File:Zygarde 10 Percent SM concept art.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Concept art of Zygarde's 10% Forme]]
Zygarde 10% Forme is a relatively small {{wp|Canis|canine}} Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, though its neck, muzzle, mouth, eyebrows, and left front paw are green. Additionally, it has two green hexagons on its chest and a single one on its rear. From its neck, a green ribbon-like extension comes out, next to an elongated red hexagon, giving the impression of a leash and dog tag, respectively. Its eyes are white hexagons with no discernible pupils, and there is a thin white line on its forehead. Its mouth is fitted with razor-sharp fangs. On each of its legs are black hexagonal extensions: two on the back of each elbow, one behind each knee, and two on each hip. One of the hip extensions is longer than the other on each hip.

Zygarde's 10% Forme is assumed in cases of emergency.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-10-forme/ Zygarde 10% Forme | Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160705143708/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-10-forme/ archived])</ref> It is created when only a tenth of its Cells have gathered, and is the result of its Cores calling Cells across the land when it needs to fight.<ref>[https://legends.pokemon.com/en-us/story-world/pokemon/zygarde10 Zygarde 10% Forme | Pokémon Legends: Z-A]</ref> Zygarde 10% Forme contains only one Core. It is skilled at close-range combat, overwhelming its opponents by leaping at their chests and sinking its sharp fangs into them. It is also capable of running at speeds greater than 60 mph (100 km/h). However, it cannot maintain this form indefinitely, and it will eventually fall apart. Concept art of Zygarde shows that it can wrap its "leash" around the arm of someone it trusts.
{{left clear}}

====50% Forme====
Zygarde 50% Forme is a large {{wp|Snake|serpentine}} Pokémon. Most of its back, head, and neck are black, while the underbelly and the tip of its tail are green. Its eyes are made of four green hexagons, similar to an insect with {{wp|compound eye}}s, and there is a thin, white line down the center of its face. Across the back of its neck is a large frill made of five long, flat protrusions that each have two small, green hexagons on them. There are three short tendrils on either side of its chest; they are black on the right and green on the left. Its tail also ends in five tendrils. It has several small, green hexagons on its body that occasionally glow white.

Zygarde 50% Forme is assembled from half of its Cores and Cells reuniting.<ref>[http://legends.pokemon.com/en-us/story-world/pokemon/zygarde50 Zygarde 50% Forme | Pokémon Legends: Z-A]</ref> Zygarde 50% Forme can contain up to 3 Cores. Despite only using half of its full potential, its power is capable of overwhelming anyone who stands in its way.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-50-forme/ Zygarde 50% Forme | Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20171003202529mp_/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-50-forme/ archived])</ref> The 50% Forme is known to be both ruthless and merciless. There are rumors that an even greater power lies hidden within it, being capable of {{a|Power Construct|changing}} to a more powerful form when battling those who threaten the ecosystem. Its frill can be shown vibrating as it attacks. As seen in ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Zygarde 50% Forme can summon and control massive roots for attacks and covering areas.

====Complete Forme====
Zygarde Complete Form is a large, humanoid Pokémon. There are several flat protrusions around its head and triangular protrusions around its neck. These protrusions create a crown shape. On its face are three white hexagonal marks: one in the middle of its forehead with a line through it and two that act as eyes. There are an additional five green hexagons on its face: four along the bottom and one in the middle of a short protrusion on top. Each shoulder has two serpentine wings protruding from it. The wings all have an undulating pattern and a hexagon near the tip: blue on the right side and red on the left. There are multiple white protrusions on its body: three on each hand acting as claws, one on each knee, and one and the front of each foot. Additionally, there are green hexagons surrounding its wrists and two under the white protrusions on its knees and feet. Its abdomen has a vertical, hexagonal pattern with a thin, white line on either side. Across its chest is a thin, zigzagging mouth that when opened, reveals five hexagons colored red, orange, white, cyan, and blue, respectively. It has a long tail similar to Zygarde 50% Forme's.

The Complete Forme is Zygarde's perfected form, created when 100% of its Cells and Cores are gathered. In this state, Zygarde can fight at full power and complete its duty of protecting the ecosystem by suppressing those who willingly endanger it. Zygarde Complete Forme contains 5 Cores, one for each of its wings and its tail. In this case, each Core can make decisions and act independently of the others.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-complete-forme/ Zygarde Complete Forme | Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160715204745/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-complete-forme/ archived])</ref> The Zygarde Cores can freely change the shapes of the four wings and tail for a variety of roles. Notably, the tip of its wings can form snake-like heads that can be used to attack with energy beams, propel itself, and restore an unbalanced ecosystem back to normal, as seen in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]''. The zigzagging mouth on its chest can radiate enough high-powered energy to destroy everything around it, even firing energy beams from within it.<ref>[https://legends.pokemon.com/en-us/story-world/pokemon/zygarde-complete Zygarde Complete Forme | Pokémon Legends: Z-A]</ref> It has also been shown to form a green, protective barrier to shield itself and its allies. It has also been shown using Core Enforcer as a rush attack, leaving a Z-shaped carving in its opponents while dashing through them before it explodes. The Complete Forme is only used to neutralize huge threats to the ecosystem, such as [[Lysandre]]'s [[Giant Rock]], the [[Laquium|Laquium Core]], the [[ultimate weapon]], [[Ultra Burst|Ultra]] {{Adv|Necrozma}}, and {{DL|Ange|Hyperrogue Ange Floette}}. It is powerful enough to overwhelm even {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}.

====Mega Zygarde====
Overall, Mega Zygarde retains most of Zygarde Complete Forme's humanoid structure, but the Cells composing its body have been strategically relocated. Notably, it has lost most, if not all, of the hexagons composing Zygarde Complete Forme's lower body, arms, and wings, exposing its light green body. As a result of this, Mega Zygarde has completely lost its wings, having seemingly replaced them with six smaller arm-like structures. On its legs, only the three hexagons on each knee remain, though they changed from symmetrical white and green to asymmetrical black and white. The lower part of Zygarde Complete Forme's chest, starting from the multicolored mouth, has also opened, giving the impression it has ripped into strands of black hexagons similar to tree roots. The green, eye-like patterns on its chest now have each a differently colored hexagon on them (one red, one blue). Underneath the chest plate, a series of five white hexagons cover the true body. White, chain-like hexagonal patterns run down Mega Zygarde's uncovered torso, arms, and legs, as well as on its back and under its feet. Its arms don't end in hands, but split into three hexagonal digits. Mega Zygarde's headpiece and tail remain mostly unchanged from its base form, only having lost the green hexagons on its face and having more of those on its tail. Its crown is lit up by a green flame, and its eyes are green as well.

Mega Zygarde is said to be born as a result of people's emotions during an unprecedented crisis, allowing it to calm the situation with its unmatched power. Its defining feature is the giant cannon held above Mega Zygarde's head by its six smaller arms. The cannon has a cylindrical shape, somewhat resembling a tree trunk, decorated with several shapes and lines similar to Zygarde 10% Forme's leash. The cannon is mostly black, with dark blue and dark red patches circling its length. At the cannon's muzzle, there is a pink symbol resembling a cross between an "X" and a "Y" surrounded by red, blue, and pink lines. Its interior features a circle, three hexagons, and a central circle, while its back has a dark green hexagon at the center. When Mega Zygarde attacks with its cannon, the muzzle pattern shines in the shape of an "X", "Y", and "Z" before opening up, unleashing a {{m|Nihil Light|beam of light that defies nature itself}}, which has been likened to the [[Z-Move]]s found in the [[Alola]] [[region]].<ref>[[Lysandre|L]]: ''"And now that I think of it... The moves that Zygarde used when it [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]]—they reminded me of [[Z-Moves]], like those used in the [[Alola]] region."'' ([[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]])</ref> Such an attack was powerful enough to overpower Hyperrogue Ange Floette's powered-up {{m|Light of Ruin}}, which threatened to annihilate all of [[Lumiose City]], as well as to break through the [[Laquium]] Core's defenses and heavily damage it, as seen in [[HZ136]]. It has been referred to as "Lumiose's Guardian"<ref>[[Research Task (HOME)|Kalos Region Tasks]]</ref> due to it saving Lumiose City from Hyperrogue Ange Floette.

Mega Zygarde is the only known Pokémon capable of using the move {{m|Nihil Light}}, an upgraded version of {{m|Core Enforcer}}.

{{Candy|Zygarde}}10 and {{Stardust}}2,000 are needed to change Complete Forme Zygarde into its 50% Forme.

Zygarde cannot be [[Released Pokémon#Pokémon GO|transferred]], [[Trade (GO)|traded]], or transferred to {{g|HOME}} via the [[GO Transporter]].
|}

===Form data===
Zygarde has three forms: 10% Forme, 50% Forme, and Complete Forme. [[Zygarde Cell]]s and [[Zygarde Core]]s appear in the story in some games, but they are not catchable {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and are not included in the [[Pokédex]]; they make up Zygarde's forms and are not forms themselves.

In [[Generation VI]], Zygarde's only form is its 50% Forme, which was unnamed at the time. The 10% Forme and Complete Forme were introduced to the games in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]]. It can switch between its 10% Forme and 50% Forme using the [[Reassembly Unit]] or the [[Zygarde Cube]], and can enter its Complete Forme in {{pkmn|battle}} if it has {{a|Power Construct}}.

Zygarde's 10% Forme and 50% Forme can have {{a|Aura Break}} or Power Construct as their [[Ability]]. Internally, Zygarde's Ability difference is itself a separate form. This makes it impossible to change Zygarde's Ability with [[Ability Capsule]]s or [[Ability Patch]]es; the Reassembly Unit or the Zygarde Cube must be used instead.

;Zygarde with {{a|Aura Break}}
In [[Generation VI]], Zygarde can only have {{a|Aura Break}} as an [[Ability]] and has no other forms.

In [[Generation VII]], a Zygarde with Aura Break can be transformed by the [[Reassembly Unit]]. This machine can create a 10% Forme or 50% Forme Zygarde with Aura Break or change a 10% Forme Zygarde with Aura Break to a 50% Forme Zygarde. It can also change either to a 50% Forme Zygarde with {{a|Power Construct}}.

Since [[Generation VIII]], the [[Zygarde Cube]]'s "Change form" function can change Zygarde with Aura Break between 10% Forme and 50% Forme. Its "Change Ability" function can also change its Ability to Power Construct.

;Zygarde with {{a|Power Construct}}
The [[Zygarde Cube]]'s "Change form" function ("Change Forme" in Generation VII) can change Zygarde with Power Construct between 10% Forme and 50% Forme. Since Generation VIII, its "Change Ability" function can also change its Ability to Aura Break.

Any Zygarde with Power Construct will change to Complete Forme in battle if its [[HP]] drops below half. When the battle ends, it returns to its original form with the same HP it ended the battle with (within its original form's maximum HP).

Zygarde has a unique form change animation when changing to its Complete Forme, which shows Zygarde Cells (represented by green hexagons) gathering to change its form.

In [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]], due to the lack of Abilities, the distinction between Zygarde with Aura Break and Zygarde with Power Construct does not exist. Instead, any 10% Forme or 50% Forme Zygarde will change into Complete Forme when its HP is reduced to half or less, increasing its maximum HP and gaining current HP equal to the amount of maximum HP gained. If Zygarde's HP is reduced below the threshold while it is using a [[move]], it will transform when the move finishes. Zygarde is invulnerable while changing into Complete Forme. It will change back to its previous form if it is recalled while out of battle, retaining the HP it had at that time; if this is above the maximum HP of its original form, its HP will become equal to its maximum HP.

Zygarde's [[base stats]] differ between its three forms. Additionally, it can only [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] when it is in its Complete Forme. If it knows the move {{m|Core Enforcer}} when it Mega Evolves, the move will be replaced with {{m|Nihil Light}} until the Mega Evolution ends.

===Pokémon Adventures===
{{main|Zygarde (Adventures)}}
Zygarde debuted in ''[[PS584|Hawlucha Attacks]]''. It first appeared in [[Anistar City]], where it was {{pkmn2|caught}} by [[Emma|Essentia]]. It was later used by her against [[Team Flare]]'s enemies at [[Pokémon Village]]. Eventually, she started to rebel, prompting [[Lysandre]] to take direct control of Zygarde. When [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} reverted to their dormant forms, Zygarde lost the need to keep itself active and disintegrated.

Zygarde also played a notable role in the {{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}. Having been sent to [[Alola]] to find it, [[Dexio]] and [[Sina]] hired {{adv|Sun}} to gather the Zygarde Cells and Cores scattered around Alola. During the climax of the arc, Zygarde used the Reassembly Unit on {{rt|16|Alola}} to transform into its Complete Forme, before joining the battle against {{adv|Necrozma}} at [[Mount Lanakila]] alongside {{adv|Solgaleo}} and {{DL|Nebby|Pokémon Adventures|Lunala}}.

===Origin===
Zygarde's 10%, 50%, and Complete Formes may be inspired in part by the three children of {{wp|Loki}} and {{wp|Angrboða}} in {{wp|Norse mythology}}: {{wp|Fenrir}}, {{wp|Jörmungandr}}, and {{wp|Hel (being)|Hel}}.

Zygarde 10% Forme may be based on the wolf Fenrir. The green leash-like object around its neck could be based on {{wp|Gleipnir}}, the rope that binds Fenrir. Its left front paw has a different color from the others, being green instead of black, which is possibly a reference to Fenrir biting off the god {{wp|Týr}}'s right hand in reprisal for being bound by him. This forme could also draw inspiration from {{wp|Garmr}}, the watchdog that guards {{wp|Hel (location)|Helheim}}'s gate. In appearance, it resembles a {{wp|Dobermann|Doberman Pinscher}}.

Zygarde 50% Forme's appearance may be based on a serpent in the shape of the letter Z. It may also draw inspiration from Jörmungandr, a sea serpent that encircles the earth; and {{wp|Níðhöggr}}, a dragon that gnaws at the roots of {{wp|Yggdrasil}}, the world tree. Jörmungandr is said to "dwell in the world sea, encircling the Earth (Midgard)", which may allude to Zygarde's {{t|Ground}} type ("Earth") and the 50% Forme being the middle forme ("Midgard"). Its flat shape and wriggling movement may be inspired by the {{wp|tsuchinoko}}, a Japanese {{wp|yokai}}, often described as being snake-like.

According to model sheet of Zygarde Complete Forme for {{g|Sun and Moon}}, it may also form a stylized letter Z when it lifts its cape over its head to attack. This forme of Zygarde may be based on Hel, the ruler of {{wp|Helheim}}, the realm of the dead in Nordic myth. The colors on its Complete Forme's chest match the colors of the real-world {{wp|flag of France}}, the country which inspired the [[region]] of [[Kalos]]. These three colors match Kalos' pentagonal emblem that is split between three sections matching each section of Kalos' sub regions: blue on the left depicting [[List of Pokémon by Coastal Kalos Pokédex number|Coastal Kalos]], red on the right depicting [[List of Pokémon by Mountain Kalos Pokédex number|Mountain Kalos]], and white in the middle depicting [[List of Pokémon by Central Kalos Pokédex number|Central Kalos]]. The blue and red colors also match the colors of {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}. Design-wise, it resembles a humanoid {{wp|Mecha anime and manga|giant mecha}} despite its organic basis; its light-up technological appearance, "transforming"/"combining" gimmick, and the face-like pattern on its chest are all tropes commonly used for fictional mecha.

Mega Zygarde's cannon might be based on either a railgun or a laser cannon. As Mega Zygarde is styled after its Complete Forme, it may also resemble a stylized Z and a mech, with its cannon posed where the "head" of the Z is placed. Similarly, many of its hexagonal patterns are also blue and red, representative of Xerneas and Yveltal, justified the X, Y and Z markings on the front of its cannon.

[[Zygarde Cell]]s and [[Zygarde Core]]s may be based on cells or other single-celled organisms, such as {{wp|slime mold}}s and members of ''{{wp|Euglena}}'', as well as {{wp|flatworm}}s (specifically {{wp|planarian}}). The hexagons within them may represent a {{wp|cell nucleus}}. The concept of the different forms of Zygarde being composed of smaller individuals useless by themselves may be based off {{wp|Colony (biology|colonial organisms}}. Zygarde's themes of the ecological balance of life may be thematically inspired by {{wp|zygote}}s, a type of cell that forms first development stage of an animal's life span. Zygarde's [[Form|forme change]] from its snake-like appearance in 50% Forme into its human-like Complete Forme may be inspired by {{wp|nāga}}, a class of snake entities in South and Southeast Asian cultures that may feature human-like qualities.

====Name origin====
Zygarde begins with the letter {{wp|Z}}, following the pattern established by {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}. It may also be derived from ζυγωτός ''zygōtos'' (Greek for "joined") or ''{{wp|zygote}}'', ''garde'' (French for "guard"), and ''garðr'' (Old Norse for enclosure; realm).

'''Mallow''' (Japanese: '''マオ''' ''Mao'') is a {{TCG|Supporter card}}. It was first released as part of the {{TCG|Guardians Rising}} expansion.

==Card text==
{{TCGTrainerText
|class=Supporter
|rule=Supporter
|effect=Search your deck for 2 cards, shuffle your deck, then put those cards on top of it in any order.
}}

==Release information==
This card was included as both a Regular card and a {{TCG|Full Art card}} in the {{TCG|Guardians Rising}} expansion, first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Alolan Moonlight}} expansion. The Regular print features artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]], while the Full Art print features artwork by [[Megumi Mizutani]]. The Regular print was reprinted as a Mirror Holofoil print in the Japanese {{TCG|GX Battle Boost}} subset. Another Mirror Holofoil print, this time a {{TCG|SM-P Promotional cards|SM-P Promotional card}}, was awarded to winners of DeckBuildBattle events held at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues across Japan, which featured different formats each month. This print was available at events using the June format, the {{TCG|Sky-Splitting Charisma}} Feature Battle, as well as the August format, the {{TCG|Fairy Rise}} Feature Battle. Both formats required players to construct a Standard-regulation deck using at least 6 cards from the featured expansion or subset. The Sky-Splitting Charisma Feature Battle was held at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues throughout June 2018; the Fairy Rise Feature Battle was held at venues starting August 3, 2018 and ran until September 6, 2018.

==Trivia==
* This card has the same effect as {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Oracle|138}}, released in the {{TCG|Skyridge}} expansion. {{TCG ID|Temporal Forces|Ciphermaniac's Codebreaking|145}}, released later in the {{TCG|Temporal Forces}} expansion, also has the exact same effect text, although it is a [[Future (TCG)|Future]] card.

===Origin===
[[Mallow]] is the [[Trial Captain|captain]] of [[Akala Island]]'s [[Lush Jungle]], which is featured in the Regular print's illustration.

Hi, I'm Madi and I'm probably a little too obsessed with Pokemon for my own good.

I dabble in programming, game development, I do playtesting for some games in my freetime as well. In terms of Pokemon, I like torturing myself with ridiculous shiny hunts. I also like mid evo cat starters.

They were the exclusive licensing agent for merchandise, TV, and home video rights for ''[[Pokémon]]'' outside of Asia from 1998<ref name="ani98">[https://books.google.com/books?id=40AgAAAAIBAJ&pg=PA26 ''U.S. may get cartoon series'' - Sarasota Herald Tribune (January 1, 1998)]</ref> to 2005, though produced their final dubs for the Series in late 2006.<ref name="pk05">[https://web.archive.org/web/20060212111424/http://www.4kidsentertainment.com/docs/news/2005-1223.pdf ''Pokémon USA Moves Licensing In-House In 2006'' - KSCA Public Relations Worldwide (December 23, 2005)]</ref> They were the main producers of English-language [[Pokémon animation]] during that period, and a number of their dubs in other languages have been based around their work. The rights 4Kids once had, are now held by [[The Pokémon Company International]].

==History==
4Kids and [[Nintendo|Nintendo of America]] had been business partners since 1987, when the company was known as '''Leisure Concepts'''.<ref>[https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/58592/0000950168-97-000827.txt 10-K Index: "Agreement between Nintendo of America, Inc. and the Registrant dated December 17, 1987 (4)"]</ref> 4Kids licensed {{aniseries|PTS}} after a February 1997 trip to [[Shogakukan|ShoPro]]'s offices,<ref name="wsj99">[https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB934753154504300864 ''Creating the Craze for Pokemon: Licensing Agent Bet on U.S. Kids'' - The Wall Street Journal (August 16, 1999)]</ref> and their plans to dub it in English were revealed shortly after the "[[Pokémon Shock]]" incident.<ref name="ani98"/> The animated series was announced at NATPE 1998<ref>[https://www.awn.com/animationworld/natpe-1998-its-tough-market-someone-selling ''NATPE 1998: It's A Tough Market But Someone is Selling...'' - Animation World Network (February 1, 1998)]</ref> and production started the following May at [[TAJ Productions]]. The animated series premiered on September 7 in syndication, with an order of 52 episodes.<ref>[https://www.awn.com/news/pok-mon-hits-world ''Pokémon Hits The World'' - Animation World Network (October 3, 1998)]</ref> Shortly after this, 4Kids sub-licensed the animated series to parties in other parts of the world like Canada, Latin America, and Europe.<ref>[https://www.awn.com/news/pok-mon-hits-world ''Pokémon Hits The World'' - Animation World Network (October 3, 1998)]</ref><ref>[https://www.awn.com/news/pok-mon-sold-latin-america-broadcasters ''Pokémon sold to Latin America broadcasters'' - Animation World Network (February 14, 1999)]</ref><ref>[https://www.awn.com/news/pokemon-sold-europe ''POKEMON sold to Europe'' - Animation World Network (April 2, 1999)]</ref> At the same time, 4Kids served as a licensing agent for Pokémon merchandise on behalf of Nintendo of America.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=oHkhAAAAIBAJ&pg=PA63 ''Pocketing the Pokemon'' - The Hour (May 27, 1998)]</ref>

Prior agreements 4Kids had with Nintendo were replaced with two new ones in October 2001; one was with the newly-formed Pokémon USA and gave 4Kids the same Pokémon rights they always had,<ref name="pk01">[https://web.archive.org/web/20051024051709/http://www.4kidsentertainment.com/docs/news/2001-1010b.pdf ''4Kids Entertainment Signs New Five-Year Agreement With Pokémon USA'' - KSCA Public Relations Worldwide (October 10, 2001)]</ref> while the other was with Nintendo of America and gave 4Kids some exclusive licensing rights for other Nintendo properties (like ''{{fzw|F-Zero: GP Legend (anime)|F-Zero}}'' and ''{{wk|Kirby: Right Back at Ya!|Kirby}}'') outside of Japan.<ref name="noa01">[https://web.archive.org/web/20051024051642/http://www.4kidsentertainment.com/docs/news/2001-1010a.pdf ''4KIDS ENTERTAINMENT SIGNS LONG-TERM AGREEMENT WITH NINTENDO OF AMERICA'' - KSCA Public Relations Worldwide (October 10, 2001)]</ref> Additionally, 4Kids continued to outsource Pokémon dubbing projects to TAJ until 2003, when they took it in-house (their first dubbed episode in-house was ''[[EP263|Address Unown!]]'').

By the time their deal with Pokémon USA expired in 2005,<ref name="pk05"/> 4Kids' dubs consisted of the first 8 seasons of ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'', its first 8 tie-in movies, a few specials and games, several English theme songs, the [[Pokérap]], [[Pokémon Chronicles]], songs that appeared in [[Pikachu's Jukebox]] and [[Pokémon Karaokémon]], and the [[2.B.A. Master]] album. Pokémon USA (now known as [[The Pokémon Company International]]) took over 4Kids' Pokémon-related roles after the expiration; their first dubs were the TV special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'' and season 9 of ''Pokémon the Series''.

On December 5, 2012, 4Kids Entertainment announced that it had ended a dispute over the so-called Pokémon agreement with The Pokémon Company International, under which TPCi would get a $1 million general, unsecured claim against the debtor.

Despite their massive contributions to the animated series and the Pokémon franchise as a whole, there had been many critics. Some fans felt that some important information, facts, or emotions expressed in the original version were lost in translation. Frequent move errors, type matchup errors, and most infamously, poor quality in the [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]] segments have led fans to believe 4Kids had very little knowledge of the Pokémon franchise as a whole.

===Post-Pokémon===
In May 2008, {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Kids' WB!}} was replaced with {{wp|The CW4Kids}} (later known as {{wp|Toonzai}}), a block ran entirely by 4Kids. On March 24, 2011, {{wp|TV Tokyo}} and {{wp|Nihon Ad Systems}} sued 4Kids Entertainment due to "underpayments, wrongful deductions, and unmet obligations" concerning the ''Yu-Gi-Oh'' franchise. TV Tokyo and NAS claimed that 4Kids' collaboration with {{wp|Funimation Entertainment}} violated their original contract and enabled 4Kids to hide income amassed from home video production. They sought $4,792,460.36 USD in damages as a result.<ref>[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-03-29/tv-tokyo-nihon-ad-terminate-yu-gi-oh-deal-sue-4kids ''TV Tokyo, Nihon Ad Terminate Yu-Gi-Oh! Deal, Sue 4Kids'' - Anime News Network] (retrieved September 27, 2022)</ref> In the midst of the lawsuit, 4Kids filed for {{wp|Chapter 11 Bankruptcy}} protection on April 6, 2011. The lawsuit was settled on February 29, 2012, with 4Kids retaining rights to the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise after a judge ruled that TV Tokyo and NAS had improperly terminated their agreement with 4Kids.<ref>[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-12-31/4kids-yu-gi-oh-license-is-still-in-force-court-rules ''4Kids' Yu-Gi-Oh! License Is Still in Force, Court Rules'' - Anime News Network] (retrieved September 27, 2022)</ref>

In June 2012, {{wp|Saban Brands}} purchased the rights to several of 4Kids' {{wp|anime}} properties, including ''{{wp|Dragon Ball Z}}'', ''{{wp|Sonic X}}'', ''{{wp|Cubix}}'', and the Toonzai block. Rights to the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise were sold to {{wp|Konami}}, who also acquired 4Kids Productions and reincorporated it as 4K Media. Toonzai was replaced by the Saban-run {{wp|Vortexx}}, and it lasted until 2014. 4Kids reincorporated as '''4Licensing Corporation''' in December 2012, and continued to exist until a Chapter 11 bankruptcy plan of theirs went into effect on February 7, 2017.

==Typical edits==
Common complaints from fans concern 4Kids' tendency to edit some parts of {{aniseries|PTS}} to make it more appropriate for the American audience, primarily children and pre-teenagers. These edits can be broken down into several categories.

* Cultural changes: Scenes relating to Japanese culture were often edited to be more accessible to American audiences. One example of this is the renaming of [[rice ball|onigiri]], which have been called a variety of things from donuts to popcorn balls, though on occasion sporadically they would also retain the rice balls.
* Dialog edits: Sometimes a character's lines were edited so as to change the meaning. For example, in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'''s dub, Attila is Hun's new partner, whereas they had known each other for years in the original.
* Puns: Occasionally, puns made were lost in translation. Frequently, puns would be inserted instead where they were not before, such as in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', where Meowth ''pun''-ishes Jessie and James. Puns were also used in the episode titles, a practice which [[The Pokémon Company International]] decided to continue.
* Music edits: In most (not all) episodes of the first three seasons of the Anime dub, 4Kids kept most of the original Japanese music in the dub and often added their own pieces to fill moments of silence. Conversely, 4Kids replaced most of the Japanese music in the first three Movie dubs, with the first and third being completely rescored.
* In contrast, all of the original Japanese music was kept from the [[M04|fourth movie]] onward to their final dub of [[M08|eighth movie]], excluding openings and endings and the title screen music for the fourth and [[M05|fifth]] movies. From seasons [[S04|four]] to [[S08|eight]] (including Pokémon Chronicles), 4Kids replaced most of the Japanese music with their own music, except for scenes that feature music from the games, such as in ''[[AG005|In the Knicker of Time]]''. And despite this, it should be noted that 4Kids' dubs of seasons [[S04|four]] to [[S08|eight]] still managed to retain more of the Japanese music than the end of the TPCi dub in-house from seasons [[S16|sixteen]] to the final one in season [[S25|twenty five]].
* Paint edits: Paint edits were usually made to remove Japanese text, but they were also done for things such as turning an onigiri into a sandwich in ''[[AG092|Judgment Day!]],'' a practice which [[The Pokémon Company International|''The Pokémon Company International'']] also ended up continuing from the XY Series onward into JN via orders to OLM in Japan.
* Cuts: Some scenes were removed completely, sometimes due to time constraints. Often, however, they were removed in the name of censorship, such as with James's breast scene in ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]'' or in cases of 'excessive' violence.
* Scene switches: Occasionally, scenes were moved around. For example, several attacks are performed out of order in ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War!]]''.
* Motto: Team Rocket's motto usually changed slightly in each episode in the dub, yet, in most cases, it stayed exactly the same in the original.
* Openings/endings: 4Kids created their own openings using their own music. While the original had its own unique ending, the dub would either simply run a shorter version of the opening along the left side of the screen or use an instrumental version of the opening song for the ending, again a practice which [[The Pokémon Company International]] decided to continue.
* [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: Often, the Pokémon, layout, and presentation were different in the original. During the [[S01|first season]], the Pokémon were usually the same as in the Japanese version. In the [[S02|second]] and [[S03|third]] seasons, the segment mostly had a Pokémon starring in the following episode. From seasons [[S04|four]] to [[S06|six]], the Pokémon were completely random. Although this feature stopped in Japan at the end of the Johto saga, it continued through the dub season [[S06|Pokémon: Advanced]]. For [[S07|Pokémon: Advanced Challenge]] and [[S08|Pokémon: Advanced Battle]], this was replaced by {{pkmn|Trainer's Choice}}.
* [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokérap]]/[[Pikachu's Jukebox]]/[[Pokémon Karaokémon]]: These music video segments shown in the early seasons of the dub were not present in the original.

'''Gibeon''' (Japanese: '''ギベオン''' ''Gibeon'') is a recurring character and the main antagonist of {{aniseries|HZ}}. He is the current leader of the [[Explorers]], one of its founders, as well as the founder and chairman of [[Exceed]]. Additionally, he is [[Amethio]]'s grandfather.

==History==
===Pre-series===
[[File:The original Explorers.png|250px|left|thumb|Gibeon, [[Lucius]], and [[Rystal]], the original [[Explorers]]]]
100 years prior to the events of the series, Gibeon was a traveling {{pkmn|Trainer}} searching for the Pokémon paradise [[Laqua]] alongside his {{shiny|White}} {{p|Zygarde}}. One day, while at a saloon, he overheard two other patrons deriding a pair of travelers who had come to ask for information regarding Laqua. He presented them with an extensive document of all the research he had conducted proving Laqua existed. Later, the two travelers, [[Lucius]] and [[Rystal]], invited him to accompany them on their {{pkmn|journey}} to locate the paradise, and he agreed. The group adopted the name of the [[Explorers]] and traveled around the {{pkmn|world}}, ultimately locating Laqua after several days lost at sea.
[[File:Younger Gibeon.png|250px|right|thumb|Younger Gibeon]]
In Laqua, Gibeon studied the local Pokémon, seeking to understand what could have created such a lush environment. The trio pushed on deeper into Laqua, discovering evidence of plant life that had withered from an unknown force. They eventually came across a growth of pink crystals named [[Laquium]] that generate a pink mist. Gibeon approached the growth to take a sample, observing the intense levels of energy the crystal possessed. Lucius, fearing what kind of effect the crystals could have on his group, instructed Gibeon and Rystal to leave Laqua with him, while Rystal agreed, Gibeon did not listen. Driven mad by the power of the mist, Gibeon used Zygarde in an attempt to force more crystals to grow, unleashing more mist in the process. The mist, in turn, caused the Pokémon nearby to begin rampaging, forcing Lucius and Rystal to fight them off. Zygarde, realizing the effect the mist was having on its Trainer, shed some of its cells in an attempt to seal the crystals' energy away, but this measure failed. The crystals' explosive growth ruptured the ground beneath Gibeon's feet, causing him to fall into a fissure. Following his fall, Rystal's {{p|Terapagos}} [[Pagogo]] and Lucius's Pokémon the [[Six Heroes]] worked together to seal the Laquium inside a giant energy barrier, Lucius was trapped inside it and Rystal left the paradise.

Gibeon's role in Lucius's adventures was largely forgotten overtime. However, he survived the fall thanks to the Laquium shard he had with him, the sun was blotted out for three days due to the explosion in Laqua and once the sun reappeared, Gibeon left the paradise, walking down the [[Kumuri Mountain]] and into [[Kumuri Town]], where his injuries were treated by the mother of a {{OBP|Matriarch|HZ084|3 year old girl}}. Thanks to the power of the Laquium shard he had, he managed to expand his lifespan through the mist it produced. During this time, he organized the modern incarnation of the Explorers and founded the [[Paldea]] company known as [[Exceed]] to serve as the group's scientific research front, specifically on Laquium. Since then, he sought to return to Laqua and harvest the Laquium to better the lives of both [[human]]s and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

He later met [[Hamber]], who had become lost and aimless in his path as an adventurer, but Gibeon guided and recruited him into the Explorers. He also sought to recruit Hamber's old friend [[Diana]], Lucius and Rystal's granddaughter, but she turned down Hamber's invitation. At one point, Gibeon also got married and fathered a [[Amethio's mother|daughter]], who would grow up and marry a man named [[Cervantis]]. Cervantis joined the Explorers and was apparently tasked with carrying on Gibeon's legacy, but through unknown circumstances, Cervantis strayed from this path and failed to live up to Gibeon's expectations, eventually being expelled from the Explorers. Cervantis and Gibeon's daughter had a child of their own, [[Amethio]], who Gibeon later brought into the Explorers with the same task, to find Laqua once again. At some point, Gibeon's daughter died in a car accident, but his reaction to this event is currently unknown.

==={{aniseries|HZ}}===
[[File:Explorers Admins HZ006.png|thumb|250px|left|Gibeon communicating with the [[Explorers]] admins]]
Gibeon was mentioned for the first time in ''[[HZ004|The Treasure After the Storm!]]'', when [[Hamber]] questioned [[Amethio]] about the results of his mission.

In ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'', Gibeon appeared communicating with his Admins regarding Amethio's mission to [[Roy's hometown]]. Believing that Amethio did not carry out his mission properly, he dismissed him and sent [[Spinel]] to investigate the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. When all the members left the meeting, Hamber and Gibeon realized that they had finally found their true purpose.

In ''[[HZ025|Rivals in the Dark of Night!]]'', Gibeon contacted Hamber during the events in [[Galar]]. After the battle ended, Hamber was seen talking to Gibeon again by the monolith, informing him that events had finally begun to move again. Gibeon, in response, expressed that their wishes would soon come true.

In ''[[HZ034|Respective Departures]]'', Amethio sought an audience with Gibeon following his mission with the [[Black Rayquaza]] in the [[HZ033|previous episode]]. Gibeon, awakening, spoke to Amethio about the battle and inquired how he felt while fighting Rayquaza. After Amethio claimed that he felt Rayquaza was not taking the battle seriously, Gibeon suggested that it was either testing him or toying with him, then informed Amethio that Rayquaza and {{TP|Liko|Terapagos}} were the keys to his paradise, Laqua.
[[File:Gibeon debut HZ045.png|250px|thumb|right|Gibeon in his chamber, using [[Laquium]] mist to keep himself young]]
Gibeon made his first physical appearance in ''[[HZ045|From So Far Away]]''. He presided over another meeting of the Explorers following the failure of their plan to collectively battle the Black Rayquaza. In the light of their failure, he ordered a change of tactics, directing his subordinates to spy on the Rising Volt Tacklers and allow them to gather the Six Heroes, while also ordering [[Coral]] and the others to monitor Liko and Terapagos. Following the conclusion of the meeting, Gibeon was seen in his personal chamber, musing to himself about his desire to return to Laqua and how [[Lucius]]'s adventure wasn't yet over.

In ''[[HZ054|The Treasure of Eternity]]'', Gibeon summoned Amethio to meet with him in-person. During this meeting, it was revealed that Amethio was Gibeon's grandson, and his heir in the search for Laqua. Amethio swore he would prove himself worthy of carrying Gibeon's blood by finding the paradise and the [[Laquium]] within, thus succeeding where his father, Gibeon's son, had failed.

In ''[[HZ065|Liko and Amethio]]'', after an operation against the Rising Volt Tacklers concluded in [[Glaseado Mountain]], Spinel presented evidence that Amethio had betrayed the organization by allowing Liko to leave with Terapagos. The other admins believed his claim, while Hamber was willing to listen to his defence. Before Amethio could explain anything, Gibeon chimed in, questioning whether Amethio was straying from the path much like his own son did. He then made the decision to expel Amethio, seemingly unaware that he was being manipulated by Spinel and coldly told his grandson not to show his face again after his explusion.

In [[HZ075]], Liko and the Rising Volt Tacklers learned about the Explorers' past from Rystal after summoning her through time at the [[Crystal Pool]]. Gibeon was later seen resting in his chamber while Spinel and [[Chalce]] schemed to usurp the position at his side once he returned to Laqua.

In [[HZ083]], Gibeon was informed by [[Sidian]] that the Rising Volt Tacklers had successfully obtained the Six Heroes, restored Terapagos to full strength, and had left to find Laqua. He told the Explorers that they would ambush the Rising Volt Tacklers in Laqua once the seal had been lifted. Later, in a meeting with Spinel and Chalce, Gibeon expressed his joy at the anticipation of finally obtaining more Laquium.

In [[HZ086]], with the barrier to Laqua removed, Gibeon began heading towards where the Laquium was located. Accompanied only by his Zygarde, Gibeon muttered to himself about finally achieving his goals as he approached his destination.

==Character==
In the past, Gibeon was a determined, scientifically-minded adventurer. He habitually gathered volumes of information on his goals, recording all of his research into Laqua on a scroll that reached a significant length. He also did not tolerate what he deemed as foolishness regarding topics such as whether Laqua existed or not. Although he was generally flat emotionally, he did display some signs of appreciation and happiness during his time with [[Lucius]] and [[Rystal]]. When the three [[Explorers]] reached Laqua, he immediately tried to satisfy his scientific curiosity, seeking to understand how the paradise gained its rich environment.
[[File:Gibeon obsession over Laquium.png|250px|thumb|right|Gibeon's obsession with Laquium's power]]
However, following his exposure to the mist given off by the Laquium, Gibeon's character changed significantly for the worse. He grew maniacal and reckless in his efforts to cultivate more Laquium, behaving in a way that displayed no concern over the rampaging Pokémon around him or the risk to the world posed by the Laquium's growth. When his {{p|Zygarde}} turned against him and tried to seal the Laquium, he grew enraged and berated Zygarde for its betrayal. Later on, it's also revealed that Gibeon sees Lucius attempts to seal the Laquium as a betrayal as well.

In the present, he initially appears to be a calm, detached leader, mostly delegating the day-to-day work of running the Explorers to [[Hamber]]. He tends to directly involve himself only when major events relating to his goals take place, and is pragmatic in managing his resources at these times, as seen when he replaces [[Amethio]] with [[Spinel]] on the mission to obtain Liko's pendant. When he discovered that Hamber, [[Coral]], and [[Sidian]] had gone to [[Galar]] in an attempt to confront the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], he immediately contacted Hamber; however, he later overlooked this insubordination due to the value of the intelligence they had gathered. He is generally cold-hearted and callous, displaying a willingness to do anything regardless of morality to achieve his goals. Gibeon is also secretive in his activity; few know that he is the chairman of Exceed and no employees are known to have ever met him face-to-face.

His hatred of betrayal remains, however, and is no stronger than it is with his family members. Gibeon disowned and exiled his son-in-law from the Explorers when he strayed from the path of Gibeon's wishes, and did the same after discovering his grandson Amethio's apparent betrayal. He did not allow Amethio a chance to defend himself, instead assuming that he was going down the same path as Cervantis and dismissed him, considering him a disgrace for his actions.

Gibeon's subordinates hold him in high, almost reverential regard, typically referring to him as "Master Gibeon", behaving in a highly deferential way when in his presence, and identifying the Explorers as "only existing to fulfill" his wishes. His followers must specifically seek out time when they wish to speak to him, for which he awakens until he chooses to conclude that subordinate's audience with him. In [[HZ083]], it was shown that despite Gibeon being over 100 years old, he has aged slowly. Due to his advanced age, Gibeon's health is very poor, which causes him to be confined to an advanced wheelchair in a room filled with a mist resembling that given off by Laquium. When he does meet with someone directly instead of using his holographic monolith, they must speak with him from the other side of a barrier and cannot enter his chamber. In [[HZ086]], Gibeon is shown to have little mobility, requiring the use of his motorized wheelchair to navigate Laqua.

| desc = The '''{{shiny|White}} {{p|Zygarde}}''' (Japanese: '''白いジガルデ''' ''White Zygarde'') is Gibeon's only known Pokémon. It is usually seen at Gibeon's side, out of its [[Poké Ball]]. It is kept in a silver, mechanical-looking Poké Ball.

100 years prior to the events of the series, Gibeon and his Zygarde, in its 50% Forme at the time, travelled alongside [[Lucius]] and [[Rystal]] to the Pokémon paradise [[Laqua]]. There, Gibeon attempted to extract the [[Laquium]] crystals for their otherworldly properties. Seeing how dangerous they truly were, Zygarde went against its Trainer's orders and attempted to seal it away with 40% of its [[Zygarde Cell|Cells]]. Though this attempt failed, [[Pagogo]] transformed into its [[Stellar Form]] and succeeded in sealing the crystals away, along with Lucius and the aforementioned Cells.

Since then, Zygarde remained in its 10% Forme, and remained Gibeon's partner Pokémon despite its "betrayal" in Laqua. It kept Lucius informed of the events surrounding the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], the Explorers, and their attempts to reach Laqua. It also left one Cell in the care of [[Hamber]]; [[Amethio]] speculated that this was a sign of Gibeon's trust in him.

In [[HZ087]], Zygarde returned to Laqua and regained its cells, transforming back into its 50% Forme in the process. As Gibeon commanded it to dig up more Laquium, it rammed itself into the mass of crystals, revealing that its true goal was to unseal Lucius. Despite all this, and its role as the protector of the ecosystem, Zygarde gave in to Gibeon's pleas to assist him in battle, and it faced off against Liko, Roy, Dot, and Amethio.

Zygarde's known moves are {{m|Thousand Arrows}} and {{m|Land's Wrath}}.

Hi, I'm a trans girl who's probably a little too obsessed with Pokemon for her own good.

I dabble in programming, game development, I do playtesting for some games in my freetime as well. In terms of Pokemon, I like torturing myself with ridiculous shiny hunts. I also like mid evo cat starters.

'''Ann''' (Japanese: '''アン''' ''Ann'') is a character in {{aniseries|HZ}}. She is a student at [[Indigo Academy]] and a friend and roommate of [[Liko]].

==In animation==
===History===
[[File:Liko and Ann.png|left|250px|thumb|Ann and Liko]]
Ann first appeared in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]''. She met [[Liko]] when she arrived at the room they were sharing together. After getting the [[Pokédex]] installed on her [[Rotom Phone]], she selected {{p|Oshawott}} to be her [[first partner Pokémon]]. The next day, Ann had her first ever Pokémon battle, using Oshawott to battle against [[Liko's Sprigatito]], which was soon called off. One night, Ann spotted Liko looking at [[Diana|her grandmother]]'s pendant and asked about it.

After Liko noticed how close she and Oshawott were compared to how close she was with her Sprigatito, Ann gave her advice. When the time came for a school break, Ann headed home, leaving Liko at the academy.

Ann reappeared in ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', when she spoke to Liko after she had joined the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]].

In ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens]]'', Ann spoke to Liko when she attended a class online. During the conversation, the two talked about the live stream that [[Dot|Nidothing]] would do in a few hours.

In ''[[HZ021|The Lonely Hatenna]]'', she contacted Liko and revealed that she had acquired her second Pokémon in the form of her {{p|Sandshrew}}.

In ''[[HZ035|The Wild Pair, Friede and Cap!]]'', Ann spoke with Liko before class and noted that she had caught a {{TP|Liko|Hatenna}}. Ann appeared again when Liko gave her presentation for class.

In [[HZ046]], Ann arrived at [[Naranja Academy]], having enrolled as a temporary student to train for [[Terastal Training]]. After reuniting with Liko, she met [[Roy]] and [[Dot]] and had a battle with Liko, using her {{p|Dewott}} to battle against {{p|Floragato}}. After a tough battle, Liko emerged victorious.

During her Terastal Training journey, Ann received her challenge, and managed to pass her first exam.
[[File:Ann Vs Luka HZ066.png|250px|thumb|Ann battling Luka in the [[Course Students Battle Tournament]]]]
In [[HZ054]], Ann met up again with Liko and her friends and, after being introduced to {{TP|Liko|Terapagos}}, she spent the day with them. During the return to Naranja Academy, Ann revealed to Liko her real feelings as a Trainer and together they arrived at [[Mesagoza]]. In the [[HZ055|next episode]], Ann stayed with Liko and her friends while they received information that they would participate in a battle against members of [[Paldea]]'s [[Elite Four]]. During the battles, Ann watched the matches with Liko. In [[HZ056]], she watched her friend and [[Katy]]'s battle against [[Rika]] alongside [[Nemona]] and Roy.

In [[HZ057]], Ann was seen with the other students during [[Clavell]]'s speech that began the second part of the Training. Despite this, her Gym challenge was not revealed.

In [[HZ066]], Ann participated in the [[Course Students Battle Tournament]] at the Naranja Academy, where she faced {{OBP|Luka|HZ053}}. In the [[HZ067|next episode]], Ann took care of {{an|Terapagos}} while Liko battled Roy, and during the climax of the battle, Ann joined the others in cheering for her friends. After the conclusion of Terastal Training and the tournament, Ann revealed to Liko that she was returning to [[Kanto]] to continue her studies at Indigo Academy and that she would like to face Liko again when she is stronger.

===Character===
[[File:Ann Sandshrew.png|250px|thumb|Ann and her Pokémon prior to [[HZ046]]]]
Ann is an energetic girl who is very extroverted. She has a habit of being messy, but is shown to be considerate, keeping her mess to herself. She expresses concern and encourages her close friend [[Liko]] to try and understand her partner Pokémon.

In ''[[HZ021|The Lonely Hatenna]]'', Ann revealed that she wants to be a {{pkmn|Trainer}} that focuses on {{pkmn|battle}}s, while Liko was still figuring out her path at the time. In [[HZ054]], Ann revealed that her main goal was the [[Pokémon League]].

===Pokémon===
Ann's Pokémon are very close and friendly to each other. Ann is also very attached to her Pokémon, to the point that she considers them the biggest reason she follows through on her dreams.

Despite being a beginner {{pkmn|Trainer}} like [[Liko]], her Dewott managed to stand its ground despite her Pokémon's weakness against Floragato. Ann is also a versatile Trainer, using specific [[move]]s on her Pokémon to cover their weaknesses, as analyzed by [[Rika]].

It reappeared in [[HZ046]], where it was revealed to have evolved into a Dewott. It had a [[rematch]] against Liko's Floragato, but lost.

In [[HZ066]], Dewott was used to face {{OBP|Luka|HZ053}}'s {{p|Roserade}} in [[Naranja Academy]]'s [[Course Students Battle Tournament]].

'''Zygarde''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジガルデ''' ''Zygarde'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ground}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VI]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Zygarde has three [[#Form data|forms]]: '''10% Forme''', '''50% Forme''', and '''Complete Forme'''.

Additionally, there are two basic components of Zygarde: '''[[Zygarde Core]]s''', which act as the brains of Zygarde, and '''[[Zygarde Cell]]s''', which compose Zygarde's forms and are non-sentient. Neither Zygarde Cores nor Zygarde Cells can use [[move]]s or are useful in battles by themselves. They are stored inside a [[Zygarde Cube]].

Zygarde 50% Forme was introduced in {{g|X and Y}}. The Zygarde Cells, Zygarde Cores, Zygarde 10% Forme, and Zygarde Complete Forme were revealed in the October 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine and later introduced in {{g|Sun and Moon}}.

A [[Squishy|Zygarde Core]] played an important role in {{aniseries|XY}} during the ''XY&Z'' arc.

Zygarde, {{p|Xerneas}}, and {{p|Yveltal}} are often collectively referred to as the [[Aura trio]] by fans.

==Biology==
Zygarde is a green and black {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} whose form depends on the percentage of [[Zygarde Core]]s and [[Zygarde Cell]]s it has gathered together. Zygarde's Cores and Cells do not have the power to battle alone and can only fight when combined to form Zygarde. Zygarde serves as the protector of the planet's ecosystem. Zygarde is shown to be capable of [[Land's Wrath (move)|gathering the energy of the land]] and focus it on its foes, damaging them. It has the ability to divide its cells from its body temporarily, using them as weapons, either as {{m|Thousand Arrows|arrows}} or {{m|Thousand Waves|waves}}. Zygarde usually stays out of the sight of others. It has been referred to as a "guardian of the ecosystem"<ref>[[Legendary and Mythical Guidebook: Deluxe Edition]]: :''"It is said this Legendary Pokémon is a guardian of the ecosystem."''</ref> due to its role to defend the world's order. In both [[Pokémon Adventures]] and ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'', it has been referred to as "'''Z'''". Zygarde keeps a close watch on the planet and on its two counterparts {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}, ensuring the equilibrium of the planet and the cycle of life and death are kept in check. Additionally it is capable of {{a|Aura Break|reversing}} the effects of its counterpart's abilities {{a|Fairy Aura}} and {{a|Dark Aura}}. Normally, Zygarde avoids getting involved in conflicts unless the ecosystem is in grave danger. Examples of it are battles between Xerneas and Yveltal and invasions from [[Ultra Beast]]s.

Zygarde is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the moves {{m|Land's Wrath}}, {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, {{m|Thousand Waves}}, and {{m|Core Enforcer}}. It is also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Aura Break}} and {{a|Power Construct}} as its {{Abilities}}.

===Forms===
Zygarde has three forms: 10% Forme, 50% Forme, and Complete Forme, which are composed of [[Zygarde Core]]s and [[Zygarde Cell]]s.

;Zygarde Cores and Zygarde Cells
[[File:Zygarde Core SM concept art.png|thumb|left|200px|Zygarde Cores are individuals who can combine with Zygarde Cells to make a whole being]]
[[File:Zygarde Cells flying towards a Zygarde Core.png|thumb|right|200px|Zygarde Cells flying towards a Zygarde Core]]
Zygarde Cores are the brains of the Zygarde, and a Zygarde may contain up to five Cores. A Zygarde Core is a small, green Pokémon with a gelatinous body. It has a large, round head with a beak-shaped protrusion on the front, a thin, hook-shaped tail, and a red hexagon suspended in its body. Within its head is a single eye with a black pupil; beside this eye is another white oval that may be a second eye.

The Zygarde Core remains in watch of the region, usually living in caves. The Cores have their own will and are sometimes able to act on their own. The Zygarde Core can send a signal to Zygarde Cells, commanding them to fly towards it to form Zygarde's body in order to protect the ecosystem.<ref name=CoresCells>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygardes-cores-and-cells/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Zygarde’s Cores and Cells] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160814031551/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygardes-cores-and-cells/ archive])</ref> Zygarde Cores are capable of absorbing sunlight to regain their strength, can speak telepathically, communicate with other Cores, and use the Cells to observe the ecosystem, as depicted in the {{aniseries|XY}} episode ''[[XY095|Love Strikes! Eevee, Yikes!]]''. Zygarde Cores can also turn invisible.

Zygarde Cells make up every other part of Zygarde and appear nearly identical to the Zygarde Core. Unlike the Core, it has a flat body and head. It has a green pupil, a simpler, unhooked tail, and a darker green, more elongated hexagon within its midsection.

Zygarde Cells tend to be scattered around the [[Pokémon world]], allowing the Zygarde Cores to observe the ecosystem, seeing through their eyes, as depicted in ''Love Strikes! Eevee, Yikes!''. The Zygarde Cells form the rest of Zygarde's body and are only able to act on the Core's orders<ref name=CoresCells/>. The Cells also have the ability to fly in amazing speed, allowing them to reach a Zygarde Core from far away. Even though they are scattered all over the world, they're extremely hard to find as they are almost always invisible.

;10% Forme
[[File:Zygarde 10 Percent SM concept art.jpg|thumb|right|200px|The 10% Forme resembles a canine and has impressive speed]]
The 10% Forme has a relatively small canine body. It is primarily black with a green collar and a leash-like extension on its neck. Additional green markings include two hexagon markings on its chest, a small hexagon over each eye, the area around its mouth, and its front left paw. There is an elongated, red hexagon marking attached to the collar marking. Its eyes are white hexagons with no discernible pupils and there is a thin, white line on its forehead. On each of its legs are hexagonal extensions: two on the back of each elbow, one behind each knee, and two on each hip. One of the hip extensions is longer than the other on each hip. Zygarde 10% Forme also has razor-sharp teeth.

10% Zygarde is created when a Zygarde Core combines with only a tenth of the total Zygarde Cells. The 10% Forme is skilled at close range combat. It is also capable of running at speeds greater than 60 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour). A single Core acts as the brain for the 10% form. This allows it to take action separately from Zygarde's 50% Forme, which comprises its main body, for a short time before separating.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-10-forme/ Pokémon Sun and Moon Site | Zygarde 10% Forme] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160705143708/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-10-forme/ archive])</ref>
{{left clear}}

;50% Forme
[[File:Encountering Zygarde XY.png|thumb|left|Encountering the {{fd|Zygarde|50% Forme}} in Pokémon X and Y]]
The 50% Forme has a serpentine body with green and black markings. Most of its back, head, and neck are black, while the underbelly and the tip of its tail are green. Its eyes are made of four green hexagons, similar to an insect with {{wp|compound eye}}s, and there is a thin, white line down the center of its face. Across the back of its neck is a large frill made of five long, flat protrusions that each have two small, green hexagons on them. There are three short tendrils on either side of its chest; they are black on the right and green on the left. Its tail also ends in five tendrils. It has many small, green hexagon markings on its body capable of glowing.

The 50% Forme of Zygarde is formed from half of its Cores and Cells reuniting. Zygarde is thought to monitor those who destroy the ecosystem from deep within its cave. This form of Zygarde is known to be both ruthless and merciless, destroying anyone who stands in its way. Zygarde can summon and control massive roots, which it can use to attack and cover areas, as depicted in the episode ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]''. In the same episode, it was also shown that the green color on Zygarde's body had changed to red while under the influence of Team Flare's Mega Evolution energy weapon.

;Complete Forme
[[File:Zygarde Complete SM concept art.jpg|thumb|200px|Zygarde Complete Forme's complex biology]]
The Complete Forme has a large, humanoid body with a long tail similar to Zygarde 50% Forme's body. There are several flat protrusions around its head and triangular protrusions around its neck. These protrusions create a crown shape. On its face are three white hexagonal marks: one in the middle of its forehead with a line through it and two that act as eyes. There are an additional five green hexagons on its face: four along the bottom and one in the middle of a short protrusion on top. Each shoulder has two serpentine wings protruding from it. The wings all have an undulating pattern and a hexagon near the tip: blue on the right side and red on the left. There are multiple white protrusions on its body: three on each hand acting as claws, one on each knee, and one and the front of each foot. Additionally, there are green hexagons surrounding its wrists and two under the white protrusions on its knees and feet. Its abdomen has a vertical, hexagonal pattern with a thin, white line on either side. Across its chest is a thin, zigzagging opening that when opened, reveals five hexagons colored red, orange, white, cyan, and blue, respectively.

The Complete Forme of Zygarde is formed when 100% of its Cells and Cores [[Power Construct (Ability)|come together]]. Zygarde Complete Forme contains separate Cores for each of its wings and its tail. In this case, each Core can make decisions and act independently of the others.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-complete-forme/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Zygarde Complete Forme] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160705143718/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-complete-forme/ archive])</ref> In ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', Zygarde is shown capable of using the mouths of its tail and wings to [[Extreme Speed (move)|propel itself]] by shooting beams out of them. In the same episode, Zygarde Complete Forme is shown to restore an unbalanced ecosystem and weather back to normal. The opening on its chest can radiate enough energy to destroy everything around it. This form only appears to neutralize huge threats to the ecosystem. Examples of it are [[Lysandre]]'s [[Giant Rock|Zygarde-like creature]] and [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Necrozma|Ultra]] {{p|Necrozma}}.

===Form data===
Zygarde has three forms: 10% Forme, 50% Forme, and Complete Forme. [[Zygarde Cell]]s and [[Zygarde Core]]s also appear in the story of the [[Generation VII]] games, but they are not catchable Pokémon or registered in the Pokédex; they make up Zygarde's forms and are not forms themselves.

In [[Generation VI]], Zygarde's only form was 50% Forme (unnamed at the time).

Since [[Generation VII]], all three forms are available. Zygarde's 10% Forme and 50% Forme can be changed with the help of external tools: the [[Reassembly Unit]] and the Zygarde Cube. Zygarde can enter its Complete Forme during battle, and only if it has the Ability Power Construct.

The 10% Forme and 50% Forme of Zygarde can have the {{Abilities}} {{a|Aura Break}} or {{a|Power Construct}}. Internally, these are all separate forms. This makes it impossible to switch Zygarde's Ability with [[Ability Capsule]]s or [[Ability Patch]]es; the [[Reassembly Unit]] or the [[Zygarde Cube]] must be used instead.

;Zygarde with {{a|Aura Break}}
In [[Generation VI]], Zygarde could only have Aura Break and had no forms.

In [[Generation VII]], a Zygarde with Aura Break could be transformed by the [[Reassembly Unit]]. This machine could create a 10% or 50% Zygarde with Aura Break or upgrade a 10% Zygarde with Aura Break to 50%; it could also upgrade either to a 50% Zygarde with Power Construct.

Since [[Generation VIII]], the [[Zygarde Cube]]'s "Change form" function can change Zygarde with Aura Break between 10% Forme and 50% Forme. Its "Change Ability" function can also change its Ability to Power Construct.

;Zygarde with {{a|Power Construct}}
The [[Zygarde Cube]]'s "Change Forme"{{sup/7|SMUSUM}}/"Change form" function can change Zygarde with Power Construct between 10% Forme and 50% Forme. Since [[Generation VIII]], its "Change Ability" function can also change its Ability to Aura Break.

Any Zygarde with Power Construct will change to Complete Forme in battle if its [[HP]] drops below half. At the end of battle, a Complete Forme Zygarde will return to its original form with the same HP it ended the battle with (within its original form's maximum HP).

==In animation==
[[File:Z2 50 Percent Forme.png|thumb|250px|Zygarde 50% Forme in {{aniseries|XY}}]]
===Main series===
====Major appearances====
=====[[Squishy]]=====
Zygarde is a major target of [[Team Flare]] in {{aniseries|XY}}. Zygarde Cells and one of its Cores debuted in ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''. With the help of [[Mairin]]'s {{p|Chespin}}, [[Chespie]], this Core managed to escape [[Lysandre Labs]], and it subsequently came across {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. {{an|Bonnie}} was immediately taken with it and [[nickname]]d it "Squishy". It traveled in Bonnie's bag alongside {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}. Squishy later transformed into its 10% and 50% Formes to defend itself against [[Bryony]] and her subordinates, thus marking the debut of both forms. In ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'', when Alva used his laser weapon onto the [[Azoth Kingdom]], it transformed into its Complete Forme to protect the kingdom, thus marking the form's debut.

Squishy is known by the code name '''Z1''' by Team Flare.

=====[[Z2]]=====
A Zygarde known by the code name '''Z2''' by Team Flare appeared as a 50% Forme Zygarde in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. It managed to escape Team Flare by using {{m|Land's Wrath}}. It appeared as a Zygarde Core during ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', being contacted by [[Squishy]].

Unlike Squishy's red core, Z2 has a blue core.

=====Other=====
A Zygarde appeared in ''[[XYS05|The Legend of X, Y, and Z!]]'' during a flashback, where it was seen in its 50% Forme. In the flashback, it destroyed the kingdom ruled by [[Veofum]] with {{m|Land's Wrath}}.

A {{Shiny}} 10% Forme Zygarde appeared in ''[[HZ045|From So Far Away]]'', under the ownership of [[Gibeon]]. It has since made further appearances in {{aniseries|HZ}}.

====Minor appearances====
Zygarde's Complete Forme's first appearance in the animated series was in ''[[XY098|Dream a Little Dream from Me!]]'', where it appeared in a dream.

A Zygarde appeared in its 50% Forme in the opening sequence of ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''.

===Pokémon Generations===
[[File:Zygarde Complete Forme PG.png|thumb|250px|Zygarde Complete Forme in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
A Complete Forme Zygarde appeared in ''[[PG01|The Adventure]]'', where {{ga|Red}} and his {{TP|Red|Pikachu}} encountered it at the end of [[Terminus Cave]].

===GOTCHA!===
A Zygarde briefly appeared in both its 10% and 50% Formes as a silhouette in [[GOTCHA!]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Zygarde Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Zygarde 50% Forme in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
{{main|Zygarde (Adventures)}}
Zygarde debuted in ''[[PS584|Hawlucha Attacks]]''. It first appeared in [[Anistar City]], where it was {{pkmn2|caught}} by [[Emma|Essentia]]. It was later used by her against [[Team Flare]]'s enemies at [[Pokémon Village]]. Eventually, she started to rebel, prompting [[Lysandre]] to take direct control of Zygarde. When [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} reverted to their dormant forms, Zygarde lost the need to keep itself active and disintegrated.

Zygarde also played a notable role in the {{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}. Having been sent to [[Alola]] to find it, [[Dexio]] and [[Sina]] hired {{adv|Sun}} to gather the Zygarde Cells and Cores scattered around Alola. During the climax of the chapter, Zygarde used the Reassembly Unit on {{rt|16|Alola}} to transform into its Complete Forme, before joining the battle against {{adv|Necrozma}} at [[Mount Lanakila]].

==Other appearances ==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Zygarde's 50% Forme and Complete Forme appear as {{sbw|Spirits}}.

==Trivia ==
*Zygarde is currently the [[List of Pokémon by name|last Pokémon in alphabetical order]].
*Zygarde Complete Forme has several distinctions:
**It is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 708.
**It has the highest base {{stat|HP}} stat of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon.
** It is the only changeable form of a Pokémon with a different HP stat than the forms it changes from. This gives it several more unique traits:
***Zygarde is the only Pokémon that can change its maximum HP total in battle.
*** Because the difference in HP is added to Zygarde's current HP, transformation into Zygarde Complete is the only way a Pokémon affected by {{m|Heal Block}} can heal itself.
***Transformation back from Zygarde Complete is the only time a Pokémon's maximum HP can lower on its own.
*Zygarde Core and Zygarde Complete Forme were first shown in a preview for ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'' at the end of ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''.
*Zygarde is the only Pokémon that has two standard [[Ability|Abilities]] but does not have a [[Hidden Ability]].

===Origin===
Zygarde's 10%, 50%, and Complete Formes may be inspired in part by the three children of {{wp|Loki}} and {{wp|Angrboða}} in {{wp|Norse mythology}}: {{wp|Fenrir}}, {{wp|Jörmungandr}}, and {{wp|Hel (being)|Hel}}.

Zygarde 10% Forme may be based on the wolf Fenrir. The green leash-like object around its neck could be based on {{wp|Gleipnir}}, the rope that binds Fenrir. Its left front paw has a different color from the others, being green instead of black, which is possibly a reference to Fenrir biting off the god {{wp|Týr}}'s right hand in reprisal for being bound by him. This Forme could also draw inspiration from {{wp|Garmr}}, the watchdog that guards {{wp|Hel (location)|Helheim}}'s gate. In appearance, it resembles a {{wp|Dobermann|Doberman Pinscher}}.

Zygarde 50% Forme's appearance is based on a serpent in the shape of the letter Z. It may also draw inspiration from Jörmungandr, a sea serpent that encircles the earth; and {{wp|Níðhöggr}}, a dragon that gnaws at the roots of {{wp|Yggdrasil}}, the world tree. Jörmungandr is said to “dwell in the world sea, encircling the Earth (Midgard),” which may allude to Zygarde's partial Ground typing (“Earth”) and the 50% Forme being the middle forme (“Midgard”). Its flat shape and wriggling movement may be inspired by the {{wp|tsuchinoko}}, a Japanese cryptid, and its snakelike appearance may be inspired by {{wp|nāga}}, a class of snake entities in South and Southeast Asian cultures.

Zygarde Complete Forme may be based on Hel, the ruler of {{wp|Helheim}}, the realm of the dead in Nordic myth. The colors on its Complete Forme's chest match the colors of the real-world {{wp|flag of France}}, the country which inspired the [[region]] of [[Kalos]]. These three colors match Kalos' pentagonal emblem that is split between three sections matching each section of Kalos' sub regions: blue on the left depicting Coastal Kalos, red on the right depicting Mountain Kalos, and white in the middle depicting central Kalos. The blue and red colors also match the colors of {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}. Design-wise, it resembles a humanoid {{wp|Mecha anime and manga|giant mecha}} despite its organic basis; its light-up technological appearance, "transforming"/"combining" gimmick, and the face-like pattern on its chest are all tropes commonly used for fictional mecha.

[[Zygarde Cell]]s and [[Zygarde Core]]s may be based on cells as well as {{wp|flatworm}}s (specifically {{wp|Planarian|planaria}}) and single-celled organisms such as {{wp|slime mold}}s and members of ''{{wp|Euglena}}''. Some planarians' {{wp|Simple eye in invertebrates#Ocelli|ocelli}} also resemble eyes, which may have inspired the designs for the Cell and Core Zygarde. The hexagons within them may represent a {{wp|cell nucleus}}.

====Name origin====
Zygarde begins with the letter {{wp|Z}}, following the pattern established by {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}. It may also be derived from ζυγωτός ''zygōtos'' (Greek for joined) or ''zygote'', ''garde'' (French for guard), and ''garðr'' (Old Norse for enclosure; realm).

Regional form

2024-07-07T18:24:32Z

MadiStarcloud: /* In the TCG */ rewrite this section

[[File:Vulpix anime.png|thumb|350px|[[Kanto]]nian and [[Alola]]n {{p|Vulpix}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A '''regional form''' (Japanese: '''リージョンフォーム''' ''region form''), also known as a '''regional variant''', is an alternate [[form]] of a Pokémon [[Pokémon (species)|species]] that is found in a specific [[region]]. These forms differ from those found in the region where the Pokémon was introduced, usually even to the point of having a different [[type]].

The following regional forms are currently known:
* [[Alolan form]] in [[Alola]].
* [[Galarian form]] in [[Galar]].
* [[Hisuian form]] in [[Hisui]].
* [[Paldean form]] in [[Paldea]].

54 Pokémon currently have regional forms, and 57 regional forms currently exist in total (55 and 58, respectively, if White-Striped {{p|Basculin}} is counted as a regional form). Apart from {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Tauros}}, which have two and three respectively, each Pokémon with a regional form has only one.

Some regional forms have a different evolution method than their counterparts from other regions.

==Terminology==
{{main|Terminology of regional forms}}
In [[Generation VII]], they were introduced as '''regional variants''', which is also mentioned in some [[Pokémon GO]] [[Community Day]] events from 2023. From [[Generation VIII]] onwards, they have been consistently known as '''regional forms''' in the core series games.

The place name adjective (such as "Alolan") is used before the Pokémon species. In running text, both the original form and the new regional forms are sometimes treated this way, such as "Kantonian {{p|Meowth}}" and "Alolan {{p|Meowth}}". Conversely, sometimes the Pokémon species are simply mentioned in running text without using the regional adjective. For instance, if the player encounters a wild Galarian {{p|Meowth}}, the battle dialogue would simply indicate "You encountered a wild {{p|Meowth}}!"

In [[Generation VII]] games, the [[Pokédex]] displays "Alola Form" as the title of this form. From [[Generation VIII]] onwards (including in [[Pokémon HOME]]), the adjectives for the place names are consistently used instead. For instance, "Alolan Form", "Galarian Form", "Hisuian Form", and "Paldean Form". The original form (such as Kantonian Meowth) is not named in the Pokédex.

In running text (as seen on [[Pokémon.com]]), the word "form" has been consistently written in lowercase. In the [[Generation VII]] era, this used to be "Alola form". From [[Generation VIII]] onwards, this includes "Kantonian form", "Alolan form", "Galarian form", etc.

==In the core series games==
In the [[Alola]], [[Galar]], [[Hisui]], and [[Paldea]] regions, certain Pokémon species have regional forms.

Pokémon with regional forms have uniquely adapted to habitats that are different than those where its species naturally live in other parts of the {{pkmn|world}}. As such, many things may be different about them, from their appearance and way of living to even their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[base stats]], [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]]. This is analogous to a form of real-world {{wp|evolution}} known as {{wp|peripatric speciation}}, where a population that is isolated from the rest of the species develops unique traits and may eventually evolve into a new species.

When {{pkmn|breeding}} Pokémon whose offspring have a regional form, the offspring will normally take on the form corresponding to the region in which it was bred, regardless of its parents' forms. However, if one of the parents of the same evolutionary family held an [[Everstone]] when the Egg was produced, the offspring will be the same form as that parent. This does not apply to White-Striped {{p|Basculin}} and {{p|Basculegion}}, which always produce White-Striped Basculin—regardless of region or held Everstones—when they are the mother or non-{{p|Ditto}} parent. If the parents are the same species but different forms and in different balls, then the offspring has a 50 percent chance of inheriting either parent's ball regardless of what form the offspring takes.

If a Kantonian Tauros is bred in Paldea and is not holding an Everstone, then the resulting offspring will always be Combat Breed Paldean Tauros and never the Blaze Breed or Aqua Breed Paldean Tauros.

If a Pokémon without a regional form evolves into a Pokémon with a regional form, it will evolve into the form native to the region it is currently in.

Regional forms introduced from [[Generation VIII]] onward may have an evolution that their regular form does not have, or evolve into a different species than the regular form, becoming something similar to a [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branched evolution]].

==In the spin-off games==
===Super Smash Bros. Ultimate===
Alolan Raichu, Vulpix, and Exeggutor appear as Pokémon that can appear from [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate#Poké Ball and Master Ball Pokémon|Poké Ball]]s in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].

===Pokémon Shuffle===
{{main|Alolan form|section=Pokémon Shuffle}}

[[Alolan form]]s appear in [[Pokémon Shuffle]].

===Pokémon GO===
:''For a list of the regional forms, see [[Alolan form#Pokémon GO|Alolan form → Pokémon GO]], [[Galarian form#Pokémon GO|Galarian form → Pokémon GO]], [[Hisuian form#Pokémon GO|Hisuian form → Pokémon GO]], and [[Paldean form#Pokémon GO|Paldean form → Pokémon GO]]''

In [[Pokémon GO]], they are [[Terminology of regional forms#Pokémon GO|referred to in the game dialogue]] as '''regional variants'''. They often have special requirements to be obtained as opposed to simply encountering them in the {{pkmn2|wild}}.

[[Alola]]n Pokémon first appeared in Pokémon GO on May 30, 2018, with the appearance of Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}}. Initially, Alolan Pokémon were exclusive to [[List of Eggs in Pokémon GO|7 km Eggs]] and {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s, but have occasionally reappeared in the wild since their debuts.

[[Galar]]ian Pokémon first appeared on November 16, 2019, with the appearance of Galarian {{p|Weezing}}.

[[Hisui]]an Pokémon first appeared on January 30, 2022, with the appearance of Hisuian {{p|Voltorb}}.

[[Paldea]]n Pokémon first appeared on November 5, 2023, with the appearance of Paldean {{p|Wooper}}.

===Pokémon Duel===
{{main|Alolan form|section=Pokémon Duel}}
Certain Alolan forms were included in [[Pokémon Duel]].

===Pokémon Masters EX===
:''Main articles: [[Alolan form#Pokémon Masters EX|Alolan form → Pokémon Masters EX]], [[Galarian form#Pokémon Masters EX|Galarian form → Pokémon Masters EX]] and [[Hisuian form#Pokémon Masters EX|Hisuian form → Pokémon Masters EX]]''

In [[Pokémon Masters EX]], the regional forms currently available are from [[Alola]], [[Galar]], and [[Hisui]]. However, they inconsistently use different naming systems: "Alola Form" and "Galarian Form".

===New Pokémon Snap===
Alolan {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Sandslash}}, and {{p|Vulpix}} can be found and photographed in the [[Lental]] region.

===Pokémon UNITE===
{{UNITE|Alolan Ninetales}} is a playable Pokémon in {{g|UNITE}}. Alolan {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Persian}} also appear as wild Pokémon in the [[Shivre City]] stage. In [[Panic Parade]], Alolan Meowth, Alolan Persian, and Paldean {{p|Tauros}} appear as wild Pokémon opposing the players.

==In the TCG==
[[File:GalarianSirfetch'dDarknessAblaze98.jpg|thumb|200px|A [[Galarian Sirfetch'd (Rebel Clash 95)|"Galarian Sirfetch'd"]] from the {{tcg|Darkness Ablaze}} expansion]]
:''Main articles: [[Alolan form#In the TCG|Alolan form → In the TCG]], [[Galarian form#In the TCG|Galarian form → In the TCG]], [[Hisuian form#In the TCG|Hisuian form → In the TCG]], and [[Paldean form#In the TCG|Paldean form → In the TCG]]''

Regional variants are featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] as Alolan, Galarian, Hisuian, and Paldean Pokémon. Notably, evolutions exclusive to regional variants have the same descriptors used for their pre-evolutions appended to the name of the evolution. For example, "Galarian" is used as a descriptor for both Galarian form Pokémon and their evolutions, as seen with {{TCG ID|Battle Styles|Galarian Mr. Mime|34}} and {{TCG ID|Battle Styles|Galarian Mr. Rime|35}} from {{TCG|Battle Styles}}. This is because some cards refer to Pokémon that are of a specific regional variant. For example, {{TCG ID|Lost Thunder|Aether Foundation Employee|168}} refers to "Pokémon that have 'Alolan' in their names".

While Galarian and Paldean Pokémon have no other exclusive mechanics, Alolan and Hisuian Pokémon have the distinction of often featuring {{TCG|attack}}s that cost zero {{TCG|Energy}} to use. Before the Sun & Moon Series, this mechanic had been absent from the TCG since the HeartGold & SoulSilver Series. Free attacks were exclusive to Alolan and Hisuian Pokémon until the Scarlet & Violet Series, when they were also once again seen on [[baby Pokémon]] cards.

===Variant Pokémon===
{{main|Variant Pokémon}}
[[File:Orange Islands Butterfree.png|thumb|220px|A [[Valencia Island]] Butterfree]]
Prior to [[Generation VII]], there were already certain Pokémon that had variations depending on their native geographical area, but, unlike regional forms, these Pokémon do not appear to have any functional difference from their original forms; rather, their differences are purely aesthetic, with their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]] remaining the same.
* The [[Generation I]] {{DL|Arbok (Pokémon)|Pokédex entries}} for {{p|Arbok}} state that there are six variations of its face-like hood markings that differ between areas. Eight designs are known, but only three have appeared in the [[core series]] games (with a fourth in {{vg|Pokémon Ranger}}). In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Arbok gains a special ability depending on its pattern.
* In [[Sinnoh]], {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}} have [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Shellos and Gastrodon|different appearances]] on each side of [[Mt. Coronet]]. East Sea Shellos and Gastrodon only appear east of Mt. Coronet, whereas West Sea Shellos and Gastrodon only appear on the west side.
* {{p|Mantyke}}'s Pokédex entry in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s|Pokémon Pearl}} says that the pattern on its back varies from region to region. While it has the same appearance in all [[Generation IV]] games (due to using the same sprites), the "face" from [[Generation V]] onward appears wider.
* {{p|Vivillon}}, which was introduced in Generation VI, has a [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Vivillon|different appearance]] depending on where the game it was created in is from in the real world.
* In the {{pkmn|anime}} episode ''[[EP083|Poké Ball Peril]]'', a number of alternately colored Pokémon were seen on [[Valencia Island]], including {{p|Butterfree}}, {{p|Raticate}}, {{p|Nidoran♂}}, {{p|Nidoran♀}}, {{p|Vileplume}}, {{p|Paras}}, and {{p|Weepinbell}}. [[Professor Ivy]], the [[Pokémon Professor]] of the [[Orange Archipelago]], studies these variations.
* The episode ''[[EP211|Fly Me to the Moon]]'' featured {{p|Pidgey}} native to [[Pudgy Pidgey Isle]] that were too heavy to fly due to an abundance of food and a lack of predators.
* In the [[Pikachu short]] ''[[PK09|Snorlax Snowman]]'', several ice-blue {{p|Snorlax}} adapted to more frigid climates appeared.
* In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] chapter ''[[PS121|Off Course with Corsola]]'', {{adv|Bill}} mentioned that [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] share many of the same Pokémon, but their colors and patterns are different between regions.

===δ Delta Species===
{{main|δ Delta Species (TCG)}}
[[File:PikachuEXHolonPhantoms79.jpg|thumb|200px|right|A {{TCG|Metal}} type {{p|Pikachu}}]]
The Pokémon Trading Card Game introduced Delta Species Pokémon in [[Generation III]]. Like regional forms, these Pokémon would undergo a type change, but their appearance would stay generally the same. The backstory of {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} states that these changes were not due to natural adaptation but rather a mutation brought on by exposure to electromagnetic waves.

This seems to be an exclusive phenomenon on the island of [[Holon]], the aforementioned waves a product of experiments by scientists in the area searching for the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}}. Delta Species Pokémon appeared in the TCG from {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} to {{TCG|EX Dragon Frontiers}}.

===Bloodmoon Ursaluna===
{{main|Ursaluna (Pokémon)}}
Bloodmoon Ursaluna, a specific Ursaluna with a unique form is found in the [[Timeless Woods]] at the land of [[Kitakami]], has a similar concept to the regional forms, being a Pokémon that moved away from their original region and adapted to the new different environment, but instead of changing types, it kept its original ones and gained special powers such as {{m|Blood Moon}} and {{a|Mind's Eye}}.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* The only [[type]] not possessed by any regional form is {{t|Bug}}.
** Additionally, there are no {{type|Flying}} regional forms that were not already that type in their original form.
* {{t|Dark}} is the most common type among regional forms, with 11, while {{t|Water}}, {{t|Dragon}}, and {{t|Fairy}} are tied for the least common type, with only 3 regional forms each.
* Out of the generations that introduced Pokémon that would later have regional forms, [[Generation I]] introduced the most, at 33, while [[Generation VII]] introduced the fewest, at one.
** Generations {{gen|IV}}, {{gen|VIII}}, and {{gen|IX}} are the only generations to not introduce any Pokémon that have regional forms.
* Out of the generations that introduced regional forms, Generation VIII introduced the most, with 36, while Generation IX introduced the fewest, with four (or only two if all three {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Tauros|Paldean Tauros breeds}} are counted as a single regional form).
* {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} are the only [[core series]] games following the introduction of regional forms to not feature them.
* {{g|Legends: Arceus}} is the only core series game in which a regional form exists but its respective original form does not.
** The only regional forms in the game whose original forms are also present are {{p|Sneasel}} and {{p|Vulpix}}.
* According to the [[Pokédex]], researchers initially believed {{p|Wiglett}} and {{p|Wugtrio}} to be regional forms of {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}}, respectively, before concluding they were [[Ecologically similar Pokémon|separate species entirely]].

Area Zero

'''Area Zero''' (Japanese: '''エリアゼロ''' ''Area Zero'') is an area located within the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] at the center of the [[Paldea]] [[region]]. It is initially accessed from the [[Zero Gate]]. After the {{player}} has entered Area Zero for the first time, they may also enter it by falling through the clouds over the Great Crater of Paldea.

The area is strictly off-limits to most people, though the [[Flying Taxi]] service still covers it. An official school rule, explicitly stated by Director [[Clavell]], forbids any student of [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} from entering Area Zero during the Treasure Hunt due to the aggressive {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that live there and the hazardous geography of the area. It contains various [[wild Pokémon]], including [[Paradox Pokémon]], that usually cannot be encountered anywhere else. Additionally, it is where the [[Terastal phenomenon]] originated; [[Tera Orb]]s are made out of the crystals found in Area Zero. Furthermore, if the player Terastallizes their own Pokémon within Area Zero, the Tera Orb will automatically be recharged at the end of the {{pkmn|battle}}.

During the events of [[The Indigo Disk]], the player is accompanied by [[Briar]], [[Carmine]], and [[Kieran]] to the [[Area Zero Underdepths]], a location below the [[Zero Lab]], and by extension, Area Zero.

==History==
[[File:Lower Area Zero.png|thumb|left|250px|The depths of Area Zero]]
2,000 years ago, the Paldean emperor attempted many expeditions into Area Zero, starting off the Great Age of Exploration. The reason was due to a rumor, claiming there was treasure located at the bottom. However, this decision led to the empire declining after 1,000 years. 800 years later, [[Heath]] and the Area Zero expedition team would be the first to reach Area Zero's bottom. Here, Heath proceeds to take many notes on the area, [[Herba Mystica]], the various wild Pokémon and first encounter with the mysterious [[Paradox Pokémon]]. He would later record his research into the [[Scarlet Book]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Violet Book]]{{sup/9|V}}. However, people accused Heath of fabricating his story, and the whole expedition was widely discredited. The expedition team also took the Herba Mystica with them outside of the crater for a research project. The project failed due to local Pokémon consuming the herbs and transforming into the [[Titan Pokémon]].

60 years after the expedition, the [[Terastal phenomenon]] would be discovered for the first time in Area Zero. However, the phenomenon could not be achieved outside of Area Zero. 53 years later, a research station was built in Area Zero in order for research to be continued at the location. Ten years before the events of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} started an expedition into Area Zero, setting up the [[Zero Lab]]. The professor would find a way to achieve the Terastal phenomenon outside of Area Zero through the use of [[Tera Orb]]s. Eventually, the professor moved permanently into the Zero Lab to continue more research on Area Zero and the Paradox Pokémon as part of the Tera Project, leaving their son [[Arven]] behind to take care of himself. Not long before the events of the game, Arven would enter Area Zero in an attempt to find his parent, only for his {{p|Mabosstiff}} to be attacked by a creature he describes as either "rampaging"{{sup/9|S}} or "metallic, machine"{{sup/9|V}}. This injures it to the point where all attempts at using traditional medicine failed to heal it, until he decides to ask the {{player}} for assistance, setting into motion the events of the game.

==Places of interest==
===Research Stations===
There are four Research Stations located around Area Zero. Upon entering Area Zero for the first time, [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} request that the {{player}}, [[Arven]], [[Nemona]], and [[Penny]] visit all four Research Stations to deactivate the locks of the [[Zero Lab]], where they reside. Each of the Research Stations have a [[warp tile]] which can teleport the player to the [[Zero Gate]] or any of the other Research Stations, if they have already been visited. There is also a bed in each, where the player can rest and heal their [[party]].

Each of the Research Stations have journals which describe Professor Sada's{{sup/9|S}}/Professor Turo's{{sup/9|V}} efforts in studying the [[Terastal phenomenon]], as well as {{p|Koraidon}} and the ancient past{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}} and the distant future{{sup/9|V}}.

===Zero Lab===
{{main|Zero Lab}}
The Zero Lab is where Professor Sada{{sup/9|S}}/Professor Turo{{sup/9|V}} conducted their research. It is located at the very bottom of Area Zero.

===Strange symbols===
A huge cavern where the ground has strange symbols inscribed on its ground. It's unknown who or what inscribed them there, but [[Heath]] ponderd if they could've been left by past explorers sent by the Paldean empire or even older still.

===Metal plate===
A big metalic plate inscribed with symbols similar to Paldea's present day map located in the same cavern the previous strange symbols were inscribed in. The material the plate is made of is extremely resistent and it's unknown how and why it was created.

===Area Zero Underdepths===
[[File:Area Zero Underdepths.png|thumb|200px|The Area Zero's Underdepths]]
{{Main|Area Zero Underdepths}}
A large cavern and an extension of Area Zero, located about 3,300 feet under the surface, it appears to have formed about 2 million years ago. It is located under the Zero Lab and by extension, under Area Zero itself. It is solely inhabited by {{p|Glimmet}}, {{p|Glimmora}}, {{p|Carbink}}, and several wild {{Tera}} Pokémon. It is also where the only known living {{p|Terapagos}} slumbers.

{{incomplete|section|needs=Image of Miraidon}}
[[File:SV Koraidon.png|thumb|200px|Koraidon at the bottom of Area Zero]]
After finishing {{DL|Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|The Way Home}}, the player can encounter the other Koraidon{{sup/9|S}}/Miraidon{{sup/9|V}} on a small, raised plateau at the very bottom of Area Zero.

Koraidon will always have an Adamant [[Nature]], while Miraidon will always have a Modest Nature. If defeated, they can be battled again after the game has been rebooted, provided that over one hour has passed in [[Nintendo Switch]]'s [[Time|internal clock]] since their defeat. They are coded to never be {{Shiny}}.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
Area Zero was first mentioned in [[HZ057]]. [[Geeta]] revealed that it is managed by Paldea's [[Pokémon League (Paldea)|Pokémon League]], and that a Pokémon resembling [[Terapagos (Pokémon)|Terapagos]] was once sighted there. [[Liko]], [[Roy]] and [[Dot]] showed interest in seeing the place in person, but [[Clavell]] revealed that an accident happened there recently, and that entering wasn't possible at the moment. Geeta assured the trio that she'd accompany them there someday.
==In the TCG==
[[File:ExplorerGuidanceTemporalForces147.jpg|thumb|200px|Area Zero as seen in the background art of Explorer's Guidance]]
Area Zero makes a minor appearance in the background of a card from the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], being {{TCG ID|Temporal Forces|Explorer's Guidance|147}} from {{TCG|Temporal Forces}}, a set with a focus on various [[Paradox Pokémon]]. The card depicts an explorer within the upper fields of Area Zero, carrying a copy of the [[Scarlet Book]].

==Trivia==
* Despite the area's heavy association with the [[Terastal phenomenon]], {{DL|Terastal phenomenon|wild Tera Pokémon}} cannot be found in Area Zero, except in the {{FB|Area Zero|Underdepths}}.
* The [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number|Paldean Pokédex]] does not list Area Zero as a spawn location for any of the Pokémon that spawn there, and is also the only area in the game without any form of map.
* The Paldean Pokédex states that {{p|Glimmet}} has a "very rare" spawn chance. However, they are quite common in Area Zero, despite appearing rarely in the rest of Paldea, potentially implying some connection between Glimmet and Area Zero.
** This connection is reinforced by also commonly being found around the [[Crystal Pool]].
* The fact that {{form|Floette|White Flower}} {{p|Floette}} is the only form that spawns in Area Zero may be referencing the [[Death in the Pokémon world|death]] of [[Professor Sada]]/[[Professor Turo]], due to the fact that white blossoms, (specifically the white {{wp|Chrysanthemum}} flower in Japan), symbolize grief, and are often used in funerals.
* Every {{wp|moth}}-based Pokémon present in {{game|Scarlet and Violet|s}} can be found in Area Zero, namely {{p|Venomoth}}, {{p|Masquerain}}, {{p|Volcarona}}, {{p|Frosmoth}}, {{p|Slither Wing}}{{sup/9|S}}, and {{p|Iron Moth}}{{sup/9|V}}. This may be a reference to moths' perceived attraction to light, given Area Zero's extremely bright surface and caverns filled with glowing crystals. It may also be another reference to death, which moths often symbolize.
* Area Zero is internally referred to as {{wp|Atlantis}} in the game's files.

'''Cinccino''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''チラチーノ''' ''Chillaccino'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Minccino}} when exposed to a [[Shiny Stone]].

==Biology==
[[File:Cinccino cleaning.png|thumb|left|250px|Cinccino cleaning itself]]
Cinccino is a furry, gray, chinchilla-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has large ears located to the sides of its head, with red insides partly covered by tufts of fur. Its eyes are large and brown, with a small, rounded nose. Its limbs are somewhat rounded and small, and its tail is long, fluffy, and incredibly white in color. Cinccino also has two large long fluffs on its head that wrap around its back. Cinccino uses its long fur as a scarf. 

Cinccino's fur is coated in a special oil that repels enemy attacks. Cinccino also uses this oil to coat its nest, protecting it from dust. The oil can also be used as a skin treatment, and is sold for a high price. Cinccino's fur feels amazing to touch, and it repels dust and prevents static electricity buildup.

Prior to [[Generation VIII]], {{m|Tail Slap}} was its [[signature move]], but other Pokémon could still inherit it via {{pkmn|breeding}}.

===Evolution===
Cinccino evolves from {{p|Minccino}}.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

==Game data==

=== NPC appearances ===

* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]], Cinccino runs the [[Gift Shop]], and is friends with the Box Buster's {{P|Rampardos}} but is oblivious to his affections to her. She reappears in [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]] and can be recruited after passing a letter between her and Rampardos. Aside from Rampardos, she is also connected with a female {{P|Wobbuffet}}.

==Trivia==
* Due to an error, Cinccino is unable to learn {{m|Thief}} via [[TM]] in {{game|Black and White|s}}, while its pre-evolved form Minccino does. This issue was later fixed in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.
* Cinccino and its pre-evolved form were designed by [[Atsuko Nishida]], and almost no changes were made to her original designs. They were intended to be parallels of [[Kanto]]'s {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}; Pokémon that everyone would think was cute. Nishida was hired specifically for her reputation in [[Game Freak]] for her skill in designing cute characters.<ref name="Atsuko">''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 201, January 2011 ([http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-3/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref>
* Cinccino is the only fully-evolved Pokémon to appear first when the player starts a [[new game]].

===Origin===
Cinccino seems to be based on a {{wp|chinchilla}}. Its white "hair" is very similar in appearance to {{wp|1600–1650 in Western European fashion#Style gallery 1600–1620|high-class women's hairstyles in the early 1600s}}. The white fur draped around its neck resembles {{wp|shawl}}s, {{wp|scarf|scarves}}, and {{wp|feather boa|boas}}, possibly a reference to how chinchillas are controversially hunted for their fur.

====Name origin====
Cinccino and Chillaccino may be a combination of ''{{wp|chinchilla}}'' and ''{{wp|chino cloth}}''. The suffix ''-ino'' or ''-cino'' is also a diminutive to denote something small.

'''{{tt|Takeshi's|Brock's}} Paradise''' (Japanese: '''タケシのパラダイス''' ''Takeshi no Paradise'') is the ninth Japanese ending theme of the [[original series]]. It debuted in [[EP157]], replacing [[Exciting² Pokémon Relay]]. It was replaced by [[Exciting Pokémon Relay]] in [[EP163]]. It was also used as the first ending theme for the [[Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station]] side story episodes, being used in [[HS01]]. Much later, it returned as the fourth Japanese ending theme for ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', being used in [[JN139]].

Since the ending debuted, it has been used as part of a running gag in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Often, Brock will be left to entertain a crowd. It starts well but he will continue singing this song over and over again because "it's the only song I know". At various times, he has received some help in this from his {{TP|Brock|Lombre}} or [[Ash's Corphish]].

==Ending animation==
===Synopsis===
The animation starts with a pair of {{i|Poké Ball}}s falling in front of bright patterns. In mid-bounce, it cuts to a pair of {{wp|maraca}}s with Poké Ball designs held in front of clouds and being shaken by Brock. It then cuts to a larger shot of him wearing a purple and red outfit with pink frilled sleeves and a {{wp|sombrero}}; he is dancing with the maracas in front of a {{wp|cactus|cacti}} and Diglett pattern. It cuts to a full shot of him dancing on a beach with a pair of Exeggutor. During this whole first segment, all the backgrounds retain a unique woven fabric texture.

[[File:Brock Takeshi Paradise outfit.png|thumb|220px|Brock striking a pose while saying "{{tt|O-ne-e-sa-n!|a respectful way to address a woman}}"]]
It then shifts to the delivery of the line, ''"O-ne-e-sa-n!"'' For each syllable of the word, Brock strikes a pose in front of a solid-colored background, except for the last syllable where he squirms as if with giddy joy.

Brock is next seen standing in his original clothes, next to a floating image with a cut-out appearance of Officer Jenny with a Growlithe. He smiles at it, then turns and starts to drift after it with hearts for eyes, but it fades and he returns to the ground, sad. Behind him, a second image appears in the same style, this one of Nurse Joy with her Chansey. He notices it, and leaps joyfully towards it with hearts for eyes again. Soon, hearts in a rainbow of colors start to fall all around.

It cuts to a pile of these hearts, which Pikachu and Vulpix dig themselves out of, then shifts to the top of the pile where Brock is sitting waist-deep in these hearts, giddy and giving a lovestruck swoon; beside him, Psyduck attempts to eat one of the hearts.

The focus returns to a heart-eyed Brock swooning over another cut-out, this one of Daisy, Violet and Lily with their Seel. He jumps with his arms spread wide, but when he tries to embrace the image, it disappears and he crashes to the ground; Pineco and Pikachu sigh in response. He floats after a cut-out of the Nurse Joy from the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] with a Slowpoke, but it turns into a giant Magikarp and knocks him away; Togepi and Vulpix laugh at this. He continues to jump after these images, but they disappear before he can grab them every time: first Officer Jenny, then Nurse Joy, then one which floats in front of the camera, never showing the image on the other side, but turns sideways and vanishes to show Brock leaping towards the camera where it was, then trying to stop and falling forward.

It switches back to backgrounds in the style of the start of the ending, this time with red tropical flowers and Brock's hands moving in a hula motion. It cuts again to a larger image, showing Brock wearing a {{wp|lei (Hawaii)|lei}} and doing the {{wp|hula}} in front of a {{wp|pineapple}} background. The full image is again Brock dancing on the beach, doing the hula in a grass skirt as a quartet of Oddish hop from foot to foot around him.

He delivers the line, ''"O-ne-e-sa-n!"'' again, and this time each syllable shows women: Officer Jenny, Nurse Joy, {{an|Misty}}'s sisters, the Orange Islands Joy, and then as a joke a Jynx who winks and blows a {{m|Lovely Kiss}}. It cuts to a small shot of an unhappy Brock getting a large hug and a sloppy kiss on the cheek from the Jynx, and finishes with a picture of him in the first outfit in the maracas surrounded by the shape of a heart.

===English===
While no full, official English translation of Takeshi's Paradise has been released, the scenes where Brock sings a segment of the song were kept in the English dub.

4Kids lyrics:
{{Schemetable|Johto}}
! English
|-
| <ab>''So la la la, look at my smiling face.
There are lots of girls, I'm in my happy place.
So la la la, this is my paradise'll live on.
Oh-lé-Yeah-Yo-Mmm. Oh!''</ab>
|}
|}

The TPCi dub took a slightly different direction with the song, calling it '''For The Girls'''. In ''[[AG184|Strategy Tomorrow - Comedy Tonight!]]'', Brock sings these lyrics:
{{Schemetable|Johto}}
! English
|-
| <ab>''La la la la la la,
I kinda like this song.
La la la la la la,
Why don't you sing along?
La la la la la la,
I sing my la la la,
For the Girls.
For! The! Girls! Yeah! Mmm!''</ab>

==Trivia==
[[File:EDJ09 Seel.png|thumb|220px|[[The Sensational Sisters]] with a {{p|Seel}}]]
* In ''[[EP043|March of the Exeggutor Squad]]'', {{an|Brock}} is seen wearing a white outfit with pink frills on the sleeves and cuffs of the pants and holding a pair of maracas. Due to similarities between the two, these clothes may have been inspiration for the trademark outfit Brock wears in the Takeshi's Paradise ending.
* [[Two Perfect Girls]] could be seen as the English equivalent of this song, though it puts more focus on [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]].
* "Takeshi's Paradise" has been used as part of a running gag in the {{pkmn|anime}} episodes:
** In ''[[EP243|Same Old Song and Dance]]'', Brock performs it continuously for the audience of a "Brittany and the Loony Balloons" concert while {{OBP|Brittany|EP243}}, Ash, and Misty try rescue her Brittany's two {{p|Igglybuff}}, named Gigglybiff and Gigglybuff, from {{TRT}}, to the audience's eventual frustration, until he finally collapses.
** In ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]'', Brock performs the song with his {{TP|Brock|Lombre}} to an audience of children in an emergency intermission at the screening of [[Elijah]]'s {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} film while he, Ash, {{an|May}}, and [[Max]] retrieve his stolen projector from Team Rocket. Once again, it's the only song he has prepared, and the children grow bored by the time he finishes.
** In ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]'', when Lombre is accidentally stolen by Team Rocket at the Shooting Star talent show, Ash, May, Max, and [[Samantha]] go after them. May once again suggests Brock can stall them. Brock asks lovelorn {{AP|Corphish}} to join him for the performance instead. By the time everyone gets back, he's worn out, but the audience reaction is unclear.
** In ''[[AG184|Strategy Tomorrow - Comedy Tonight]]'', Brock breaks out new lyrics for his performance for the children at a hospital, accompanied by a new dance routine by Corphish.
** In ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]'', Brock attempts to distract a group of {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Psyduck}} using the song, dragging {{an|Dawn}} along, wearing the same ensemble, complete with the sombrero and the maracas. Brock initially chants "For! The! Girls!" over and over, but by the time he starts singing the fuller second version, Dawn is visibly confused, and also concerned that the diversion isn't working very well.
** In ''[[JN145|Rocket Revengers!]]'', Brock distracts [[Jessie's Yanmega]] and [[James's Amoonguss]] by having his {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} use {{m|Teeter Dance}} on them while he and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} dance along. The song, however, is replaced in the English dub.
* The PopUp.Version of [[By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~]] references the song, with a picture of Brock wearing the outfit he uses for the song and dancing with his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} and {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. In updated versions of the ending, after Brock wins a [[Pokémon Egg]], he takes a seat in the image and Croagunk is the one dancing instead, complete with Brock's hat, mustache, and maracas.
* This is the only Japanese ending which has been dubbed into [[Pokémon in South Asia|Hindi]].
** The Jynx shown at the end appears in its updated appearance with a purple skin instead of black.
* In the ending's animation, {{an|Misty}}'s sisters, {{an|Daisy}}, {{an|Violet}}, and {{ka|Lily}}, are seen with a {{p|Seel}}. It is unknown whether this is supposed to be the [[Cerulean Gym]]'s Seel that had evolved into a {{OBP|Dewgong|Cerulean Gym}} in ''[[EP061|The Misty Mermaid]]'', another Seel that occupies the Gym (as seen, for example, in ''[[HS05|The Blue Badge of Courage]]''), or merely a fantasy Seel.
* An edited version of the ending with a recolored {{p|Jynx}} is available on [[Prime Video]] in Japan. This version is also used for the airing of [[JN139]].

'''Riding on Lapras''' (Japanese: '''ラプラスにのって''' ''Riding on {{tt|Laplace|Lapras}}'') is the sixth Japanese ending theme of the [[original series]]. It debuted in [[EP105]], replacing [[Type: Wild]]. It was replaced by [[Meowth's Party]] in [[EP117]]. It was also used as the ending theme for some of the [[Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station]] side story episodes, being used in [[HS02]], [[HS11]], [[HS16]]. Much later, it returned as the fifth Japanese ending theme for ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', being used only in [[JN143]].

==Ending animation==
[[File:EDJ06 room.png|thumb|250px|left|The empty room]]
===Synopsis===
Inside an empty room a painting hangs on the wall, on the painting is a picture of {{Ash}}, {{Tracey}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} riding on {{AP|Lapras}}. The painting is moving, and depicts the group riding Lapras throughout the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]]. As they ride across the ocean {{AP|Charizard}} flies overhead breathing fire. Night soon falls, and the group falls asleep on Lapras' shell. They fail to notice {{an|Jigglypuff}} and {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} floating by on balloons. Day comes again and everybody wakes up, as the shot zooms out we see that they're floating across a giant circle in the shape of a yin yang symbol. The shot continues to zoom out until the circle is replaced by the TV Tokyo logo.

==Trivia==
* The vocalist in this song is [[Mayumi Iizuka]], who provides the Japanese voice of {{an|Misty}}.
* On {{rt|41|Johto}} in the [[Johto]] region, a female {{tc|Swimmer}} named Susie asks, "Wasn't there a hit song about a boy riding a Lapras?"

Pappa para pappaa! (Wobbuffet!)
Pappa parapara paraparapara!
P-Q-R-S-Team Rocket!

We finally make it back to our hideout
A worn out Team Rocket
Why were we defeated today?
Okay! Let the review meeting begin!

Let's glance back
At today's fight
We should have done this when that happened....
Okay! Review meeting adjourned!

Five seconds is enough moping time
What's more important is food for tomorrow!

Our motivation is rising, rising, rising, rising up!
Hope is facing, facing, facing towards us
Facing-forward Team Rocket!

(Wobbo wobbo, Wobbuffet!)

Give us more scenes!
And longer lines!
While you're at it, change the title!
Yes! "Go Forth, Team Rocket!"

Someday we'll surely be the lead roles!
And then we'll be superstars!
On top of that, we'll have the {{wp|People's Honour Award}}!
Yes!　Go forth, Team Rocket!

Those are our meager, humble wishes
All our fans, please cheer for us!

Team Rocket is creating a bright future!
You can't live without us, P-Q-R-S Team Rocket!

Our motivation is rising, rising, rising, rising up!
Hope is facing, facing, facing towards us
Facing-forward Team Rocket!

(Wobbo wobbo, Wobbuffet!)

Pappa parapara paraparapara
Pappa para pappaa!
Pappa parapara paraparapara
P-Q-R-S Team Rocket!
Facing-forward Team Rocket!!

(Wobbuffet!!)''</ab>

==Trivia==
* The line "Our motivation is rising" is a play on words, as the word for "rising" is also the word for "forest", and the video shows a forest in the background.
** The line "Hope is facing toward us" is also a play on words, as the word for "facing" is similar to the word "peel", and they are shown peeling bananas in the video.

'''Type: Wild''' (Japanese: '''タイプ：ワイルド''' lit. ''Taipu: Wairudo'') is the fifth Japanese ending theme of the [[original series]]. It debuted in [[EP069]], replacing [[Pokémon Ondo]]. It was used until [[EP105]], when it was replaced by [[Riding on Lapras]]. A newly arranged version sung by [[Shōko Nakagawa]] replaced [[Notebook of the Heart]] as the fourth and final Japanese ending theme of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' in [[SM129]]. The original version returned as the seventh and final Japanese ending theme of ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', being used only in [[JN147]].

An English-language version of the song was also produced for [[Pocket Monsters Encore]], which was sung by Robbie Danzie and translated by Donessa Perry.

==Ending animation: TV ED 5==
===Synopsis===
{{Ash}}'s [[Pokédex]] floats around before opening up. As it opens the running silhouettes of Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} appear on the side of the screen while Ash and Pikachu themselves appear on the bottom. The screen of the Pokédex displays scenes from several of Ash's adventures as he reminisces about his life before becoming a [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He then reaffirms his dream of becoming a [[Pokémon Master]]. The song ends with a picture of Ash and Pikachu on the screen of the Pokédex.

===Characters===
Excluding Ash and his Pikachu, all other characters only appear on the Pokédex.
* {{Ash}}
* Pokémon Lovers Club members
* Fossil hunters

| <ab>Let's go!

Remembering the days
I trained hard and I played
In our [[Pallet Town]].
Feeling so proud of the {{AP|friends}} that I made
Knowing our goals are the same.
The sneakers that I wear,
The coolest of all pair,
Take me everywhere.
You'll only find them in Pallet Town,
Worn out but the best you will find.
They help me get through
My journeys time after time.

Oh, yeah!

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
Keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

Yeah! Oh yeah! Pallet Town! Oh yeah!

Traveling by day,
Competing along the way,
Is my destiny.
No guides, no maps to tell me where I'm going,
My heart just leads the way.
The friends I made while traveling
Help me to keep going.
A {{pkmn|Master}} is what I'm gonna be.
I'm getting there, but not easily.
But I can't stop
Trying to be what I wanna be.

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
Keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
I'm gonna keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

For I know, this will be reality
So follow all your dreams.</ab>

'''Facing Forward Team Rocket!''' (Japanese: '''前向きロケット団！''' ''Maemuki Roketto-dan!'' exact, ''Maemuki Rocket-dan!'') is the eleventh Japanese ending theme of the [[original series]]. It debuted in [[EP192]], replacing [[To My Best Friend]]. It was replaced by [[Pocket-ering Monster-ing]] in [[EP239]]. It returned as the sixth Japanese ending theme of [[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]], being used only in [[JN145]].

It was also used for the first 15 episodes of [[Pokémon Sunday]].

==Ending animation==
===Synopsis===
The scenes in this ending alternate between [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} dancing on a [[Team Rocket]] themed stage with their Pokémon and a scene with the trio in a forest recovering from their latest defeat. They sing about how despite being defeated once again, they have chosen to focus on the future instead of dwelling on their past failures. Filled with new energy they prepare themselves for their next big scheme.

==Trivia==
* The line "Our motivation is rising" is a play on words, as the word for "rising" is also the word for "forest", and the video shows a forest in the background.
** The line "Hope is facing toward us" is also a play on words, as the word for "facing" is similar to the word "peel", and they are shown peeling bananas in the video.

'''Type: Wild''' (Japanese: '''タイプ：ワイルド''' lit. ''Taipu: Wairudo'') is the fifth Japanese ending theme of the [[original series]]. It debuted in [[EP069]], replacing [[Pokémon Ondo]]. It was used until [[EP105]], when it was replaced by [[Riding on Lapras]]. A newly arranged version sung by [[Shōko Nakagawa]] replaced [[Notebook of the Heart]] as the fourth and final Japanese ending theme of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' in [[SM129]]. The original version returned as the seventh and final ending theme of ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', being used only in [[JN147]].

An English-language version of the song was also produced for [[Pocket Monsters Encore]], which was sung by Robbie Danzie and translated by Donessa Perry.

==Ending animation: TV ED 5==
===Synopsis===
{{Ash}}'s [[Pokédex]] floats around before opening up. As it opens the running silhouettes of Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} appear on the side of the screen while Ash and Pikachu themselves appear on the bottom. The screen of the Pokédex displays scenes from several of Ash's adventures as he reminisces about his life before becoming a [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He then reaffirms his dream of becoming a [[Pokémon Master]]. The song ends with a picture of Ash and Pikachu on the screen of the Pokédex.

===Characters===
Excluding Ash and his Pikachu, all other characters only appear on the Pokédex.
* {{Ash}}
* Pokémon Lovers Club members
* Fossil hunters

| <ab>Let's go!

Remembering the days
I trained hard and I played
In our [[Pallet Town]].
Feeling so proud of the {{AP|friends}} that I made
Knowing our goals are the same.
The sneakers that I wear,
The coolest of all pair,
Take me everywhere.
You'll only find them in Pallet Town,
Worn out but the best you will find.
They help me get through
My journeys time after time.

Oh, yeah!

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
Keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

Yeah! Oh yeah! Pallet Town! Oh yeah!

Traveling by day,
Competing along the way,
Is my destiny.
No guides, no maps to tell me where I'm going,
My heart just leads the way.
The friends I made while traveling
Help me to keep going.
A {{pkmn|Master}} is what I'm gonna be.
I'm getting there, but not easily.
But I can't stop
Trying to be what I wanna be.

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
Keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
I'm gonna keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

For I know, this will be reality
So follow all your dreams.</ab>

Even though I would somehow be bound
To think back to some painful thoughts
But before I even know it, all of my stuff
Had fallen out of the hole on my backpack

Hi, the name's Emma or Hoshi. I'm a trans girl who's probably a little too obsessed with Pokemon for her own good.

I dabble in programming, game development, I do playtesting for some games in my freetime as well. In terms of Pokemon, I like torturing myself with ridiculous shiny hunts. I also like mid evo cat starters.

(Japanese: '''ブランカ''' ''Blanca'') is a supporting character who appeared in [[HZ041]]. She is [[Dot]]'s mother and [[Murdock]]'s younger sister.

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
Before Dot joined the Rising Volt Tacklers, Blanca and Dot decided that they'd have a trial period to evaluate whether the experience was what Dot wanted. Blanca tasked Murdock with taking care of Dot, and keeping her up-to-date on her daughter's life aboard the Brave Olivine.
====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Dot and Blanca.png|250px|thumb|left|Dot and Blanca]]
Blanca was briefly mentioned, albeit not by name, by Murdock in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]''.

In [[HZ041]], after some time without answers from Murdock or Dot, Blanca traveled with Friede to Brave Olivine to personally check on her daughter and bring her back home. Upon arriving at the airship, Blanca met [[Liko]], [[Roy]] and introduced herself to the others, shortly after, she decided to talk about Dot's situation in the group with her daughter's friends, after that, with Liko's insistence, Blanca let her Liko and Roy try to talk to Dot.

Upon seeing Dot opening up to her friends and that she has two Pokémon partners, Blanca decided to challenge her daughter to a Pokémon battle. After Dot finally managed to open up to her mother in battle, Dot's {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} managed to learn {{M|Low Kick}} and defeat her mother's {{p|Lycanroc}}. After this, Blanca gave her approval for Dot to continue traveling.
{{-}}

===Character===
Blanca is an overly expressive person that says a lot about her family members. She is often stopped by her Lycanroc from getting off topic.

Similar to Dot, Blanca puts her hair back when she's getting serious or entering a battle. Just like her older brother, Blanca has a Pokémon from {{P|Rockruff}}'s evolutionary line, although in her case it is a Midnight Form {{p|Lycanroc}}. This choice seems to reflect on the way she dresses, as Blanca wears clothes and accessories with similar patterns to Lycanroc's forms, as well as a pair of Rockruff slippers.

===Pokémon===
====On hand====

Whenever its Trainer begins talking too much and going off-topic, Lycanroc tends to help Blanca stop talking and focus on the task at hand. It later battled {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} aboard the [[Brave Olivine]]'s battlefield, where it managed to keep Quaxly at bay for the majority of the battle, but once Quaxly learned {{m|Low Kick}}, Lycanroc was knocked out, giving Dot and Quaxly the win.

Lycanroc’s known moves are {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Rock Throw}}.}}

'''Murdock''' (Japanese: '''マードック''' ''Murdock'') is a supporting character in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. He is a skilled chef and a member of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Murdock past.png|250px|left|thumb|Murdock during his days as a patisserie chef]]
As revealed in ''[[HZ019|The Bittersweet Truth]]'', Murdock used to work as a team with {{OBP|Mitchell|HZ019}}, selling cakes with the help of his {{p|Milcery}}. Using Milcery's cream, they were able to make abundance of cakes, Murdock preferred strawberry flavor, whilst Mitchell prefers matcha flavor. Though there was a slight rivalry between them, they both took it lightheartedly. One day, Murdock found out that Milcery [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Alcremie}}, after she grabbed a [[Strawberry Sweet]] then spun herself around. Murdock was happy for his Alcremie because he can make Strawberry Ruby Swirl decorated cakes, but Mitchell wasn't because he couldn't make matcha flavor with Alcremie, which led him to resent her. After getting into an argument with Mitchell, Murdock ended his partnership with him and their relationship became strained.

Eventually, Murdock joined the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] when he decided to use his cooking skills to make everyone happy. Murdock also took in his niece [[Dot]] when she joined the Rising Volt Tacklers as well. He was tasked with keeping his younger sister and Dot's mother, [[Blanca]], up-to-date about Dot's life aboard the Brave Olivine, although he'd occasionally find himself unable to keep up with his sister's pace.

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
Murdock debuted in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]'' alongside the other members of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. He and his teammates were searching for [[Liko]] at [[Indigo Academy]] but to no avail. In [[HZ002|the following episode]], he met and introduced himself to Liko aboard the [[Brave Olivine]]. He later took over the wheel from [[Friede]] when the [[Explorers]]' infiltrated the airship.
[[File:Murdock and Liko.png|250px|thumb|Murdock and Liko]]
In ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', Murdock, his {{p|Rockruff}}, and Friede went to the nearest town to go looking for the Explorers, who had kidnapped [[Liko's Sprigatito]]. Due to Rockruff's strong sense of smell, they quickly managed to detect an undercover [[Onia]] due to her still having some of Sprigatito's scent in her body. As Liko joined them in the chase, Murdock decided to stay behind to help some townspeople who were knocked over by Onia. At the end of the day, Murdock and the rest of the Rising Volt Tacklers took Liko as one of their own.

In ''[[HZ005|Found You, Fuecoco!]]'', Murdock briefly battled alongside [[Orla]] against [[Zirc]] and Onia. As [[Roy]] approached alongside a group of {{type|Bug}} [[wild Pokémon]], they ran back to the Brave Olivine to fix its balloon gasbag, leaving [[Mollie]] to face off against Zirc.

In ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens]]'', it was revealed that Murdock and Friede had teamed up in order to get Dot to eat some sweets since she only ate the very essentials for a day. Every night, he left a box of donuts in a cupboard for his niece to take, but she never interacted with this food. A few nights later, after Liko insisted on approaching Dot, Murdock discovered that his niece finally decided to eat the sweets.
[[File:Murdock and Mitchell.png|250px|thumb|left|Murdock and his [[rival]]ry with Mitchell]]
In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', Murdock helped Liko set up a [[picnic]] for Dot and [[Ludlow]] at Brave Olivine. When his niece sent Liko a photo dressed as Nidothing, Murdock told Friede that Dot should be the one to tell Liko the truth about Nidothing's identity. Soon after, Murdock and Friede talked about being proud of their growth since they started traveling with them. In the [[HZ014|next episode]], Murdock took Liko out shopping, thanking her for everything she had done for Dot. Later, when Roy trained a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{TP|Roy|Wattrel}}, he tracked the progress the boy made. The next day, Murdock gave Roy a {{i|Poké Ball}} so that the little Storm Petrel Pokémon could join his team.

In ''[[HZ018|Flying Pikachu, Rising Higher and Higher!]]'', Murdock was asked by Dot and her friends as to how [[Captain Pikachu]] was able to fly during his battle against Roy in the [[HZ017|previous episode]], but couldn’t give them an answer because he didn't know himself. However, Murdock did become curious and he decided to help the younger members get an answer from Friede, which they were able to do as he tells them how he met Captain Pikachu and the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In ''[[HZ019|The Bittersweet Truth]]'', Murdock visited the [[Battle Café]] in [[Motostoke]] with Liko and Roy where he reunited with Mitchell. Through a suggestion from Liko, Murdock and Mitchell decided to do a [[Double Battle]], but it ended up turning into a bake-off. During the bake-off, Murdock and Mitchell settled their differences and became friends again.

In [[HZ031]], Murdock joined Mollie in helping Friede in his plan to lure a {{p|Lapras}}, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon, to come to them by bringing out their storage of Pokémon food. When the planed worked, Murdock and Mollie saw two Pokémon on crates that stored their Pokémon food. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Murdock attempted to keep the Pokémon from stealing their food until [[Diana]] arrived to help.

In [[HZ034]], Murdock attended a surprise party for [[Diana]], as she was planning to resume traveling alone. Once they bid farewell to Diana, the Rising Volt Tacklers resumed their search for the remaining Six Heroes. However, Murdock was informed by Friede that they were heading to [[Paldea]] first in order to gain information on {{an|Terapagos}}.

In [[HZ039]], upon seeing that Dot wanted to go to a nearby town to buy a new microphone, Murdock was against it, being quite happy for her safe return. After a chase after a [[Orthworm (Pokémon)|Pokémon]] that destroyed the Brave Olivine's hardware, he witnessed Dot's bravery in defending the ship and her catching a {{p|Tinkatink|new friend}}. Seeing the situation from afar, Murdock began to cry with happiness at the growth of his beloved niece.

In [[HZ041]], Blanca was picked up by Friede and came to visit the Rising Volt Tacklers in person. On her way, she tried to message Murdock and Dot, but they were sidetracked by a commotion caused by Dot's Tinkatink, causing them to leave her on read. While she briefly grilled the two over this, she quickly got sidetracked and moved on. After Dot disappeared, Murdock tried to help Blanca find the best way to get Dot to open up to her. Later, when Blanca challenged Dot to a battle, Murdock watched the battle with the other members. After Dot managed to win the battle, he helped his sister's {{p|Lycanroc}} recover.

In [[HZ046]], Murdock received a photo and a message talking about Dot's experiences thus far at [[Naranja Academy]].

===Character===
[[File:Murdock family.png|250px|thumb|Murdock and his family]]
Murdock is a caring person. As seen in ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', he likes to shower his Pokémon with affection and praises them. Murdock is also mindful to his teammates, such as when he asked [[Liko]] whether or not she have any allergies or food she dislikes right after she decided to join the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. Not only is he skilled at cooking, but at sewing too, to the point of [[Orla]] asking him to fix the patches on the blimp. Although he's good at cooking various things, Murdock preferred making sweets, due to once being a patisserie chef, and usually uses his {{TP|Murdock|Alcremie}} to make them.

Despite trying his best, Murdock has a rather strained relationship with [[Dot]], where he would be worried or nags, almost to the point that she was close to blocking him from communicating with her. However, Murdock did became motivated to try specific approaches to dealing with Dot's withdrawal and indifference to other team members. Murdock also seems to be happy that Dot became friends with Liko and [[Roy]], due to them being around her age. In ''[[HZ021|The Lonely Hatenna]]'', Murdock had his first small personal interaction with Dot in months, which for him was a victory, even though they only exchanged a few words. In addition, Murdock seems to be fond of Liko and Roy as he enjoys their company in shopping for supplies. Murdock seems to be great friends with Friede and get along well, but tends to get annoyed with him when he forgets to give important details to him and their friends. Murdock is also good friends with the rest of his teammates.

===Pokémon===
[[File:Murdock and his Pokémon.png|thumb|250px|Murdock and his Pokémon]]
Murdock's team consists of Pokémon who help him in the kitchen, such as his Alcremie. Also, Murdock's Pokémon are good in battle, but sometimes can get overwhelm by stronger opponents. In addition, Murdock would only use his Rockruff for its sense of smell to help him find lost individuals and Pokémon battles.

'''Murdock''' (Japanese: '''マードック''' ''Murdock'') is a supporting character in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. He is a skilled chef and a member of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Murdock past.png|250px|left|thumb|Murdock during his days as a patisserie chef]]
As revealed in ''[[HZ019|The Bittersweet Truth]]'', Murdock used to work as a team with {{OBP|Mitchell|HZ019}}, selling cakes with the help of his {{p|Milcery}}. Using Milcery's cream, they were able to make abundance of cakes, Murdock preferred strawberry flavor, whilst Mitchell prefers matcha flavor. Though there was a slight rivalry between them, they both took it lightheartedly. One day, Murdock found out that Milcery [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Alcremie}}, after she grabbed a [[Strawberry Sweet]] then spun herself around. Murdock was happy for his Alcremie because he can make Strawberry Ruby Swirl decorated cakes, but Mitchell wasn't because he couldn't make matcha flavor with Alcremie, which led him to resent her. After getting into an argument with Mitchell, Murdock ended his partnership with him and their relationship became strained.

Eventually, Murdock joined the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] when he decided to use his cooking skills to make everyone happy. Murdock also took in his niece [[Dot]] when she joined the Rising Volt Tacklers as well. He was tasked with keeping his younger sister and Dot's mother, [[Blanca]], up-to-date about Dot's life aboard the Brave Olivine, although he'd occasionally find himself unable to keep up with his sister's pace.

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
Murdock debuted in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]'' alongside the other members of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]. He and his teammates were searching for [[Liko]] at [[Indigo Academy]] but to no avail. In [[HZ002|the following episode]], he met and introduced himself to Liko aboard the [[Brave Olivine]]. He later took over the wheel from [[Friede]] when the [[Explorers]]' infiltrated the airship.
[[File:Murdock and Liko.png|250px|thumb|Murdock and Liko]]
In ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', Murdock, his {{p|Rockruff}}, and Friede went to the nearest town to go looking for the Explorers, who had kidnapped [[Liko's Sprigatito]]. Due to Rockruff's strong sense of smell, they quickly managed to detect an undercover [[Onia]] due to her still having some of Sprigatito's scent in her body. As Liko joined them in the chase, Murdock decided to stay behind to help some townspeople who were knocked over by Onia. At the end of the day, Murdock and the rest of the Rising Volt Tacklers took Liko as one of their own.

In ''[[HZ005|Found You, Fuecoco!]]'', Murdock briefly battled alongside [[Orla]] against [[Zirc]] and Onia. As [[Roy]] approached alongside a group of {{type|Bug}} [[wild Pokémon]], they ran back to the Brave Olivine to fix its balloon gasbag, leaving [[Mollie]] to face off against Zirc.

In ''[[HZ008|The Door That Never Opens]]'', it was revealed that Murdock and Friede had teamed up in order to get Dot to eat some sweets since she only ate the very essentials for a day. Every night, he left a box of donuts in a cupboard for his niece to take, but she never interacted with this food. A few nights later, after Liko insisted on approaching Dot, Murdock discovered that his niece finally decided to eat the sweets.
[[File:Murdock and Mitchell.png|250px|thumb|left|Murdock and his [[rival]]ry with Mitchell]]
In ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', Murdock helped Liko set up a [[picnic]] for Dot and [[Ludlow]] at Brave Olivine. When his niece sent Liko a photo dressed as Nidothing, Murdock told Friede that Dot should be the one to tell Liko the truth about Nidothing's identity. Soon after, Murdock and Friede talked about being proud of their growth since they started traveling with them. In the [[HZ014|next episode]], Murdock took Liko out shopping, thanking her for everything she had done for Dot. Later, when Roy trained a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{TP|Roy|Wattrel}}, he tracked the progress the boy made. The next day, Murdock gave Roy a {{i|Poké Ball}} so that the little Storm Petrel Pokémon could join his team.

In ''[[HZ018|Flying Pikachu, Rising Higher and Higher!]]'', Murdock was asked by Dot and her friends as to how [[Captain Pikachu]] was able to fly during his battle against Roy in the [[HZ017|previous episode]], but couldn’t give them an answer because he didn't know himself. However, Murdock did become curious and he decided to help the younger members get an answer from Friede, which they were able to do as he tells them how he met Captain Pikachu and the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In ''[[HZ019|The Bittersweet Truth]]'', Murdock visited the [[Battle Café]] in [[Motostoke]] with Liko and Roy where he reunited with Mitchell. Through a suggestion from Liko, Murdock and Mitchell decided to do a [[Double Battle]], but it ended up turning into a bake-off. During the bake-off, Murdock and Mitchell settled their differences and became friends again.

In [[HZ031]], Murdock joined Mollie in helping Friede in his plan to lure a {{p|Lapras}}, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon, to come to them by bringing out their storage of Pokémon food. When the planed worked, Murdock and Mollie saw two Pokémon on crates that stored their Pokémon food. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Murdock attempted to keep the Pokémon from stealing their food until [[Diana]] arrived to help.

In [[HZ034]], Murdock attended a surprise party for [[Diana]], as she was planning to resume traveling alone. Once they bid farewell to Diana, the Rising Volt Tacklers resumed their search for the remaining Six Heroes. However, Murdock was informed by Friede that they were heading to [[Paldea]] first in order to gain information on {{an|Terapagos}}.

In [[HZ039]], upon seeing that Dot wanted to go to a nearby town to buy a new microphone, Murdock was against it, being quite happy for her safe return. After a chase after a [[Orthworm (Pokémon)|Pokémon]] that destroyed the Brave Olivine's hardware, he witnessed Dot's bravery in defending the ship and her catching a {{p|Tinkatink|new friend}}. Seeing the situation from afar, Murdock began to cry with happiness at the growth of his beloved niece.

In [[HZ041]], she was picked up by Friede and came to visit the Rising Volt Tacklers in person. During their reunion, Murdock tried to help Blanca find the best way to get Dot to open up to her. Later, when Blanca challenged Dot to a battle, Murdock watched the battle with the other members. After Dot managed to win the battle, he helped his sister's {{p|Lycanroc}} recover.

In [[HZ046]], Murdock received a photo and a message talking about Dot's experiences thus far at [[Naranja Academy]].

Terastal phenomenon

2024-04-03T22:06:55Z

MadiStarcloud: /* Main series */

[[File:Terastal phenomenon.png|thumb|300px|Artwork of the Terastal phenomenon]]
The '''Terastal phenomenon''' or '''Terastallization''' (Japanese: '''テラスタル''' ''Terastal'') is a temporary transformation affecting {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that was introduced in [[Generation IX]]. It gives Pokémon a gem-like appearance and [[type change|changes their type]].

==Terminology==
[[File:Terastal Pikachu artwork.png|thumb|250px|A Terastallized {{p|Pikachu}} with the {{type|Flying}} Tera Jewel]]
Some terms related to this game mechanic include:
* '''Terastal phenomenon''' or '''Terastallization''' (Japanese: '''テラスタル''' ''Terastal'') is the transformation.
* '''Terastallize''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルする''' ''Terastallize'') is the related verb for this transformation.
* '''Tera Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルポケモン''' ''Terastal Pokémon''), also known as '''Terastallized Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルしたポケモン''' ''Terastallized Pokémon''), are [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] affected by this transformation.
* '''Terastallized state''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルした姿''' ''Terastal Appearance'') refers to the crystallized appearance of a Pokémon after Terastallizing. Two Pokémon ({{p|Ogerpon}} and {{p|Terapagos}}) have unique Terastal states that further change the Pokémon's appearance.
* '''[[Terastal energy]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルエネルギー''' ''Terastal energy'') is the energy involved in this transformation.
* The '''Tera Type''' (Japanese: '''テラスタイプ''' ''Teras Type'') is the [[type]] of the Terastallized Pokémon.
* The '''Tera Jewel''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルジュエル''' ''Terastal Jewel'') is the jewel on top of the head of a Terastallized Pokémon.
* The '''[[Tera Orb]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルオーブ''' ''Terastal Orb'') is the [[Key Item]] that allows a Pokémon to Terastallize.
* '''[[Tera Shard]]s''' (Japanese: '''テラピース''' ''Tera Piece'') are any of the [[:Category:Tera Shards|items]] that change a Pokémon's Tera Type. There are 19 Tera Shards, one for each type, including {{t|Stellar}}.
* A '''[[Tera Raid Battle]]''' (Japanese: '''テラレイドバトル''' ''Tera Raid Battle'') is a type of [[Pokémon battle]].
* There are two moves related to this phenomenon:
** '''{{m|Tera Blast}}''' (Japanese: '''テラバースト''' ''Tera Burst'') is a move that deals damage based on the user's Tera Type if the user has Terastallized.
** '''{{m|Tera Starstorm}}''' (Japanese: '''テラクラスター''' ''Tera Cluster'') is Terapagos's [[signature move]]. It deals super effective damage on Terastallized targets.
* There are three {{Abilities}} related to this phenomenon, all [[Signature Ability|exclusive]] to a form of {{p|Terapagos}}:
** '''{{a|Tera Shift}}''' (Japanese: '''テラスチェンジ''' ''Tera Change'') is exclusive to its Normal Form. It causes Terapagos to change into its Terastal Form when it enters in battle.
** '''{{a|Tera Shell}}''' (Japanese: '''テラスシェル''' ''Tera Shell'') is exclusive to its Terastal Form. It causes all damage-dealing moves to become [[Type#Type effectiveness|not very effective]] on Terapagos while its [[HP]] is full.
** '''{{a|Teraform Zero}}''' (Japanese: '''ゼロフォーミング''' ''Zero-Forming'') is exclusive to its Stellar Form. It negates all effects of [[weather]] and [[terrain]].
* '''[[List of Pokémon with form differences#Terapagos|Terastal Form]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルフォーム''' ''Terastal Form'') is a form taken in battle by Terapagos through its Tera Shift Ability.

Some examples of in-game dialogue from {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}:
* ''"When it is charged with energy, it can be used to cause Pokémon to '''Terastallize'''."'' (excerpt from the description of [[Tera Orb]])
* ''"If the user has '''Terastallized''', it unleashes energy of its '''Tera Type'''."'' (excerpt from the description of {{m|Tera Blast}})
* ''"If an opponent’s Pokémon '''Terastallizes''' during battle... observe a Pokémon's '''Tera Jewel''' closely to see which type it has become!"'' ([[Hassel]])
* ''"'''Terastallizing''' gives a real boost, see!"'' ([[Nemona]])

==In the core series games==
===History===
{{spoilers}}
There is a lot of mystery surrounding the Terastal phenomenon and why it only happens in Paldea. [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} was known to be researching this mysterious transformation.<ref name=Terastal/> It is later revealed that the Terastal phenomenon also occurs in [[Kitakami]] and has even been replicated by technological means in the grounds of [[Blueberry Academy]] in [[Unova]], through the use of materials from Paldea and Kitakami.

The Terastal phenomenon was first discovered 140 years ago in [[Area Zero]] along with Terastallized Pokémon at the bottom of the [[Great Crater of Paldea]]. However, attempts to remove Terastallized Pokémon from the crater caused the light to disappear. Further details of the Terastal phenomenon thus remained unclear for a while.

Ten years before the events of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the game's professor began investigating the phenomenon, and discovered that the energy emitted from shining crystals in Area Zero is what triggers it. The [[Tera Orb]]s were then created by the professor from the Terastal energy located in Area Zero, with support from [[Clavell|Director Clavell]]. This allowed people to Terastallize their Pokémon outside of Area Zero. The Tera Orb was then shared to the [[Paldea League]] and [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}.

At some point, the Terastal energy was used by the professor to create a [[time machine]], [[Time travel|bringing]] in [[Paradox Pokémon]] from the ancient past{{sup/9|S}}/distant future{{sup/9|V}}, including a pair of {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}.

The crystalline petals of {{p|Glimmora}} seem to resemble the Tera Jewels that appear during the Terastal phenomenon. It is unknown if there is a connection between Glimmora and the Terastal phenomenon, though many of them (along with its pre-evolution, {{p|Glimmet}}) can be found in Area Zero, the place where the phenomenon originated. Additionally, eight [[TM Material|Glimmet Crystal]]s are needed to make {{TM|171|Tera Blast}}, a move that changes type upon Terastallizing.

The [[Scarlet Book]]/[[Violet Book]] makes cryptic hints that it may be linked to an unknown Pokémon resembling a disk made of layers of overlapping hexagons, but the truth of this has yet to be confirmed. [[Area Zero journals|A journal in Research Station No. 1]] further implies its existence and relationship to the phenomenon. The journal reads:
<blockquote>"We've determined that this energy crystallization is linked to the being we call ▊▊▊▊▊▊. The interlocking hexagonal plates that comprise ▊▊▊▊▊▊'s shell must somehow cause this phenomenon—which I've dubbed 'Terastallizing.'"</blockquote> This Pokémon is ultimately confirmed to be {{p|Terapagos}}. A nineteenth Tera Type, the {{t|Stellar}} type, was later discovered and named by Professor Sada{{sup/9|S}}/Professor Turo{{sup/9|V}}.<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_tera_type/</ref>
{{endspoilers}}

===Effects===
[[File:Tera jewel concept art.jpg|thumb|250px|Concept art of Fire-type and Water-type Tera Jewels from {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}]]
{{pkmn|Trainer}}s who obtain a [[Tera Orb]] are able to use it to Terastallize their Pokémon, which makes a Tera Jewel appear above the Pokémon's head and causes the Pokémon's body to glisten like polished, faceted gemstones. This changes the Pokémon's defensive [[type]](s) to its Tera Type, removing all other types, but gives a weakness to {{type|Stellar}} attacks, which can only be used by Stellar-type Tera Pokémon. Terastallized Pokémon are identified by having "Tera" in front of their name.

While Terastallized, Pokémon receive [[STAB]] on moves matching their Tera Type, in addition to moves matching the types they had immediately before Terastallizing. If the Pokémon's Tera Type is the same as one of its original types, moves of that type receive a ×2 power boost instead of the usual ×1.5.<ref name=Terastal/>

During this time, {{a|Adaptability}} works only for the Tera Type (with ×1.5 becoming ×2, and ×2 becoming ×2.25). Additionally, moves of the Tera Type that have a [[base power]] below 60 are increased to 60 base power; this is checked for after {{a|Technician}}'s boost <ref>https://twitter.com/skittyve/status/1599911349764571137</ref>. The boost does not apply to [[multi-strike move]]s or moves with increased [[priority]]. [[:Category:Moves that power up|Moves that increase in power]] (such as {{m|Rollout}}) are boosted if its base power would be below 60 when used, but moves with [[:Category:Moves that have variable power|variable power based on other factors]] (such as {{m|Water Spout}}) are not boosted, regardless of what its base power would be when used. Pokémon can only have one Tera Type. The move {{m|Tera Blast}} changes type to the Pokémon's innate Tera Type upon Terastallizing.<ref>(August 21, 2022). "[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/master_terastal/ Master Using the Terastal Phenomenon in Battle!]" Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website</ref>

Terastallized Pokémon cannot have their type changed from moves and Abilities such as {{m|Soak}}, {{m|Double Shock}}, {{a|Protean}}, or {{m|Transform}}. A Pokémon using {{m|Transform}} before Terastallizing will not copy its opponent's Tera Type and will instead keep its own.

The Terastal phenomenon lasts until the battle ends or the Terastallized Pokémon faints. After being used once, the Tera Orb loses all its Terastal energy and has to be recharged by either touching crystals containing Terastal energy or by visiting a [[Pokémon Center]].<ref name=Terastal/> An exception to this can be found in Area Zero, where the Tera Orb will automatically recharge at the end of each battle after it is used. Upon capturing Terapagos at the end of [[The Indigo Disk]], the Tera Orb will be infused with Terapagos' energy and will no longer require charging.

After beating the [[Medali Gym]], the player can change their Pokémon's Tera Type at the [[Medali|Treasure Eatery]] by exchanging 50 [[Tera Shard]]s of a given type with the chef, but this can't be done for {{p|Ogerpon}} or {{p|Terapagos}}.

The Terastal phenomenon is currently only known to be found in certain areas of the [[Pokémon world]]: [[Paldea]], apparently due to the Terastal energy seeping from the ground of the region<ref name=Terastal>(August 3, 2022). "[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/terastal_phenomenon/ Pokémon Shine and Glimmer Like Gems Thanks to the Terastal Phenomenon]." Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website</ref>, [[Kitakami]], due to the energy found in the [[Crystal Pool]], and [[Blueberry Academy]]'s [[Terarium]] in [[Unova]], due to the Terarium Core hanging from the roof of the facility.

===Catching Tera Pokémon===
Normal wild Pokémon found in Paldea typically have a Tera Type that matches one of their normal types. This Tera Type does not reflect their potential evolutions and cannot be passed down through {{pkmn|breeding}}. For example, a {{p|Charcadet}} will always have a {{t|Fire}} Tera Type. Typically, there are only two ways to obtain a wild Tera Pokémon with unique typing: either catch a wild Tera Pokémon scattered around Paldea, or participate in a [[Tera Raid Battle]]. These Pokémon may know [[TM]] [[move]]s that match this set Tera Type.

====Wild Tera Pokémon====
There are 68 wild Tera Pokémon scattered around Paldea, the majority with unique Tera Types. In [[Kitakami]], there are 22 wild Tera Pokémon scattered around the land. In the [[Terarium]], there are 21 wild Tera Pokémon scattered around the facility, the majority with unique Tera Types. They can be found in fixed locations and typically have Tera Types different from their base types, a notable exception being the eight [[Eeveelution]]s, who have Tera Types that match their base types, and would normally have a {{t|Normal}} Tera Type if [[evolution|evolved]] from {{p|Eevee}}. The wild Tera Pokémon are indicated by a bright glow emitting from their bodies, which is different if the Tera Type is {{t|Stellar}}.

When battled against, they will immediately Terastallize. Wild Tera Pokémon cannot be caught while Terastallized until after they lose their Tera Jewel, which will happen after sustaining a certain amount of damage from direct attacks. When they lose their Tera Jewel, they are unable to move for the remainder of the turn. Once this threshold is reached, the damage the Pokémon has taken will be capped until they lose their Tera Jewel, even from [[multi-strike move]]s. They will always have a perfect 31 in at least three of their [[individual value|IVs]] and their scale value is in a higher range than normal. When caught of defeated, the player is rewarded with [[League Point]]s, and with 10 [[Stellar Tera Shard]]s if their Tera Type is {{t|Stellar}} (other Tera Types do not reward any [[Tera Shard]]s).

Wild Tera Pokémon will eventually respawn at the same location after being caught or defeated: each real-time day, they have a chance to respawn. Contrary to other wild Tera Pokémon, {{t|Stellar}} ones do not always respawn as the same species: instead, the specie is chosen at random in a pool specific for each one.

====Tera Raid Battle====
[[Tera Raid Battle]]s occur all over Paldea, with the locations changing at random each real-life day at midnight. These locations are indicated on the map, and in the overworld are indicated by a large, colored "shining crystal", with a beam of sparkling lights shooting into the sky.

===Unique Terastallized states===
Some Pokémon species have unique Terastallized states, which change their appearance significantly upon Terastallizing, beyond the standard crystallized appearance of Terastallization. There is no official name for this class of Terastallized state.

{{p|Ogerpon}} and {{p|Terapagos}} are the only Pokémon known to have their own distinct Terastallized states, as well as the only ones which cannot otherwise change their Tera Types. This makes Ogerpon the only Pokémon incapable of being {{type|Stellar}}, and Terapagos the only Pokémon incapable of being a non-Stellar Tera Type. Ogerpon's Terastallized states are not recognized as separate forms, while Terapagos's Terastallized state is recognized as its Stellar Form.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Tera Crown anime.png|thumb|250px|Tera Jewels in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
The Terastal phenomenon debuted in ''[[HZ010|Nemona and Brassius and…]]'', where [[Brassius]] Terastallized his {{p|Sudowoodo}} into a {{t|Grass}} [[type]] during his battle with [[Roy]]. After the battle, [[Nemona]] explained how the phenomenon works to [[Liko]] and Roy.

In ''[[HZ014|Fly! Wattrel!!]]'', [[Friede]] Terastallized his {{TP|Friede|Charizard}} into a {{t|Dark}} type during his fight against [[Spinel]]'s {{p|Magneton}} and {{p|Beheeyem}}.

In ''[[HZ025|Rivals in the Dark of Night!]]'', Friede Terastallized his Charizard into a Dark type again in his battle against [[Amethio]]'s {{TP|Amethio|Ceruledge}} in [[Diana]]'s [[ancient castle]]. This showed that Terastallization is possible in regions not related to Paldea, as they were in the [[Galar]] region at the time.

In [[HZ034]], [[Hamber]] Terastallized his {{p|Dusknoir}} into a {{t|Ghost}} type during his training battle with Amethio. In the same episode, [[Dot|Nidothing]] published a video about the Terastal phenomenon, having her {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} dress up as if it Terastallized into a {{t|Water}} and a {{t|Normal}} type.

In [[HZ045]], Amethio used his newly obtained [[Tera Orb]] to Terastallize his Ceruledge into a Ghost type to battle the [[Black Rayquaza]]. Right after him, Friede Terastallized his Charizard into a Dark type as well and joined forces with Amethio in the battle against Rayquaza.

Terastallization debuted in [[PASV01]], when [[Nemona]] Terastallized her {{p|Pawmi}} into an {{t|Electric}} [[type]], while {{adv|Scarlet}} Terastallized her {{p|Pikachu}} into a {{t|Flying}} type.

In [[PASV05]], {{adv|Violet}} used his newly obtained [[Tera Orb]] to Terastallize his {{p|Nymble}} so that it could defeat the Segin [[Starmobile]].

In [[PASV06]], [[Katy]] Terastallized her {{p|Teddiursa}} during her Gym battle with Scarlet. It defeated her {{p|Sprigatito}}, but lost to her Terastallized Pikachu.

{{main|Pokémon ex (TCG)}}

Terastallized Pokémon were first introduced in the English {{TCG|Scarlet & Violet}} expansion (the Japanese {{TCG|Scarlet ex}} and {{TCG|Violet ex}} expansions) as {{TCG|Pokémon ex}} cards. These Pokémon are known as '''Tera''' (Japanese: '''テラスタル''' ''Terastal'') Pokémon ex. While on the Bench, Tera Pokémon ex do not receive any damage from attacks done by either player.

Some Tera Pokémon ex can have types that differ from their usual ones. These so-called "type-shifted" Tera Pokémon ex use the same Energy as their usual type for attacks, while their Weakness and Resistance will correspond with the shifted type. For instance, {{TCG ID|Obsidian Flames|Charizard ex|125}} from {{TCG|Obsidian Flames}} is a {{ct|Darkness}} Pokémon, but its Burning Darkness attack requires {{ct|Fire}} {{TCG|Energy}}.

==Trivia==
* Prior to the introduction of [[Crispin]] in [[The Indigo Disk]], if the {{player}} chooses {{p|Fuecoco}}, no [[Non-player character|NPC]] {{pkmn|Trainer}} in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} Terastallizes their Pokémon into the {{t|Fire}} type.
* [[Katy]] is the only [[Non-player character|NPC]] {{pkmn|Trainer}} to use a Terastallized Pokémon that is unevolved in her final team, as {{p|Ursaring}} is unable to evolve into {{p|Ursaluna}} in Scarlet and Violet.
* Terastal phenomenon is one of the few transformation gimmicks that can be found in more than one [[region]], along with [[Mega Evolution]].

The '''Explorers''' (Japanese: '''エクスプローラーズ''' ''Explorers'') are a mysterious organization led by [[Gibeon]], and the main antagonists of ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. They've pursued {{an|Terapagos}}, the [[Black Rayquaza]], and the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], becoming their enemies in the process. All of this has been in furtherance of their main goal of reaching [[Lakua]], although their motivations behind this goal are unknown.

==History==
{{spoilers}}
====Pre-series====
Originally the Explorers was a group made of friends of Lucius. Although neither their purpose nor ensuing fate are known, the organization managed to exist in the present, well after Lucius found Lakua.

At some point in the past, [[Hamber]] joined the Explorers and approached {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}, an old friend of his, with an offer to join the organization under the pretext of introducing her to [[Gibeon|someone who could aid her adventures]]. However, this was actually an attempt to obtain her pendant, which she refused to hand over. After that, the Explorers decided to pursue the pendant until they found out that it was in the possession of Diana's granddaughter [[Liko]], at which point they decided to find her in order to take it. Eventually, they were able to find Liko attending the [[Indigo Academy]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]].

===''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''===
[[File:Amethio HZ001.png|thumb|left|250px|Amethio battling Friede for the first time]]
The Explorers debuted in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]''. One day, [[Amethio]] approached Liko at Indigo Academy's dormitories and, while under the guise of a representative of Diana, lied about being entasked to pick up the pendant in order to return it to her grandmother. Feeling something was amiss, Liko attempted to escape from him and his cohorts, [[Zirc]] and [[Onia]], but ended up cornered in a rooftop until [[Friede]] swooped in at the right time and engaged Amethio in a battle. Upon witnessing the collateral damage the battle was causing, Liko tried to run away and almost got hit by a stray {{m|Psycho Cut}} if not by her pendant suddenly generating an energy field in order to shield her, which Friede used as an opening to escape with her to the [[Brave Olivine]]. The Explorers, however, did not give up and [[HZ002|followed them to the airship]], even amidst a vicious thunderstorm. There, Friede and Amethio clashed again, albeit briefly, as this time, Liko stepped in, having her {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} unleash a {{m|Leafage}} powerful enough to break the barrier around the battlefield and expose everyone to the unrelenting weather. This forced the Explorers to retreat, but not without taking the {{pkmn|category|Grass Cat Pokémon}} as a hostage.
[[File:Explorers Admins.png|250px|thumb|Gibeon communicating with Explorers leaders after Amethio's mission in [[Kanto]]]]
In ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', Amethio battled against Friede once again; this time, however, the {{pkmn|Professor}} was just distracting him to allow Liko to find Sprigatito in the warehouse where they were hiding. While this was happening, Zirc managed to plant a tracker on Brave Olivine's hull. This allowed for the Explorers to follow the ship all the way to [[Roy's hometown|Roy's island]] via submarine, where both parties clashed once more in ''[[HZ005|Found You, Fuecoco!]]'' and ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]''. As Liko's Sprigatito and [[Roy]]'s soon-to-be {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}} were being overwhelmed by [[Amethio's Ceruledge]], the girl's pendant synced with the boy's {{DL|Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball}}, which finally opened up. From the artifact, emerged a mighty [[Black Rayquaza]], who indiscriminately rained devastation all over the the beach with a singular {{m|Draco Meteor}}, forcing the Explorers to retreat. Later, during a meeting with the other Explorers's higher-ups, [[Gibeon]], the organization's leader, removed Amethio from the mission of collecting the pendant and assigned it to [[Spinel]]. Afterwards, Amethio communicated to Zirc and Onia that he was going to pursue the Black Rayquaza from now on, believing its connection with the pendant to hold the key to the mystery behind it.
[[File:Spinel Beheeyem Teleport.png|left|250px|thumb|Spinel confronting Friede in [[Paldea]]]]
In ''[[HZ012|The Future I Choose]]'', it was revealed that Spinel was spying on the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] during their time in [[Paldea]] in order to learn more about them. The knowledge he acquired was put to use over the following episodes, as he commenced his attack on them. First, in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', he positioned his fleet of {{p|Magneton}} around the Brave Olivine to create an electromagnetic interference to mess with the data array of the ship, rendering it powerless during a system reboot. After successfully scaring them away at the beginning of the [[HZ014|following episode]], Friede followed one of the Magneton all the way to [[Levincia]], where he was ambushed by it and Spinel's {{p|Beheeyem}}, which were being commanded from a distance by their {{pkmn|Trainer}}, seemingly in order to have his strength tested. The next day, Spinel created a false advertisement for some Spicy [[Herba Mystica]] to lure Liko into a back alley in Levincia. There, he had his Beheeyem put her on a trance with its psychic powers, allowing him to collect her pendant without any mishaps. Over the [[HZ015|next episode]], a dazed Liko was left wandering around the city while the Rising Volt Tacklers were caught on a web of misinformation laid out by Spinel, which pointed her whereabouts to [[Artazon]] instead. At the end of the day, with the collective efforts of Roy and [[Dot]], she was able to fully regain her memory.

In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]'', Friede and the young Rising Volt Tacklers begun their counterattack to find the culprit and get the pendant back. The Professor went after a leaving cruise, where he was greeted and challenged by a [[Trainer (HZ016)|mysterious man]]—this, however, was one more red herring from Spinel. While this was happening, Dot and her {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} managed to pinpoint the pendant's location to a docked cargo ship and alerted her friends. The three of them battled against Spinel's Magneton and Beheeyem and won, but were not match to his {{p|Umbreon}}. At that moment, backed up against a wall, Liko's feelings begun resonating with the pendant, which shone brightly and gave Spinel's hiding location off. After Sprigatito returned the item to her Trainer, the pendant activated again and released {{p|Arboliva}} of the Six Heroes from its Ancient Poké Ball. Then, the group grabbed hold at the {{pkmn|category|Olive Pokémon}}'s arms before it jumped overboard, leaving Spinel at the ship with the understanding that Liko herself is the key to the pendant's secrets.

In ''[[HZ021|The Lonely Hatenna]]'', Amethio, Zirc, and Onia arrived in [[Galar]] after tracking the Black Rayquaza to [[Galar Mine]]. In the [[HZ022|following episode]], their path once again crossed with the Rising Volt Tacklers's: Amethio immediately engaged Friede in battle, while Zirc and Onia faced off against Roy, Liko, and [[Captain Pikachu]]. However, the battles came to a rather abrupt end when a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Moltres}} with an Ancient Poké Ball appeared and started attacking them. At the end of the [[HZ023|next episode]], it was revealed that the Explorers had witnessed the recapture of Moltres and Liko's pendant turning into a {{an|Terapagos|mysterious Pokémon}}, with Amethio deciding to go after the Rising Volt Tacklers in order to steal it.

In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', Amethio, Zirc, and Onia reported their findings to Hamber, which quickly contacted other Admins to head with him to the Galar region: he recruited [[Coral]] and [[Sidian]], as Spinel and [[Chalce]] were occupied in the Explorers's laboratory. Amethio's team followed Liko, Roy, and Friede to an [[ancient castle]] near [[Hammerlocke]], where they surrounded them in order to take the mysterious Pokémon away. The confrontation extended into the [[HZ025|following episode]] and ended up with Amethio's first official loss to Friede. Meanwhile, Hamber and his {{p|Dusknoir}} arrived at the place and confronted Diana, who questioned him about the Explorers's motives to target them. Then, a commotion provided by the arrival of Coral and Sidian allowed for her to escape the scene, as well as for Amethio's team to leave before being caught in the crossfire. The two Admins cornered Liko and Roy, only for Captain Pikachu to arrive and rescue them, fending off her {{p|Glalie}} and his {{p|Garganacl}} at once. This, however, made Coral snap and recklessly order her Glalie to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, allowing the Rising Volt Tacklers to escape and leaving the ancient castle in ruins.
[[File:Explorers Admin HZ027.png|thumb|250px|Explorers' Admins gathered to discuss their next steps]]
In ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]'', while the Rising Volt Tacklers had been once again caught in false information spread by Spinel, the Explorers Admins had a meeting to discuss their next move. They eventually concluded that the best course of action would be pursuing the Black Rayquaza itself instead of Terapagos in order to stay ahead. In [[HZ033]], Amethio's team detected that the Black Rayquaza in the [[Lapras Sea]], and as such they immediately went after it. However, despite his best efforts, he lost very easily when trying to battle it. Amethio also witnessed Terapagos transforming into its {{form|Terapagos|Terastal Form}} as it conjured up strength in order to protect Liko. In the [[HZ034|following episode]], after asking Hamber to train him in order to become stronger, they held a training match between their {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, which ended up with a victory to Hamber after he {{Tera}}stallized his Dusknoir. Afterwards, he gave a [[Tera Orb]] to Amethio and set him in the direction of mastering the Terastal phenomenon in order to draw out its full power.

After Amethio's failure, Spinel came up with a new plan to catch the Black Rayquaza, aided by Coral, Sidian, and Chalce. Prior to [[HZ042]], the Explorers led the construction of a tower on an island near Levincia as part of the plan, which the Rising Volt Tacklers were made aware of in [[HZ043]] and started being enacted in [[HZ044]]. The tower itself was a red herring; its true purpose was to separate Friede from the rest of the group. The real plan involved attracting Rayquaza by simulating Terapagos's energy signature through a resonance generator, wearing it down by attacking him with powerful, super effective moves, and finally catching it in an [[Ultra Ball]]. The Rising Volt Tacklers managed to stall the Explorers for time enough to allow Dot to create a shutdown program and disable the resonance generator, allowing Rayquaza to free itself from the onslaught of attacks. Once again, Coral let her temper overcome her better judgment and commanded Glalie to use Self-Destruct, which collided with Rayquaza's {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. The resulting explosion was powerful enough to blast the Legendary Pokémon directly into the hull of the Brave Olivine. In the [[HZ045|following episode]], the four Admins retreated. As Liko, Roy, and Friede were battling against the Black Rayquaza, Amethio arrived at the scene and worked in conjunction with them. Despite his Ceruledge and [[Friede's Charizard]] having Terastallized, they ended up defeated by a single {{m|Dragon Ascent}}.

The '''Explorers''' (Japanese: '''エクスプローラーズ''' ''Explorers'') are a mysterious organization with a distant connection with [[Lucius]] that is after [[Liko]]'s pendant, the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]]' sworn enemy, and the main antagonistic organization in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. As revealed in [[HZ034]], the Explorers' goal is to find [[Lakua]]'s location, although why is still unknown.

==History==
{{spoilers}}
====Pre-series====
Originally the Explorers was a group made of friends of Lucius. Although neither their purpose nor ensuing fate are known, the organization managed to exist in the present, well after Lucius found Lakua.

At some point in the past, [[Hamber]] joined the Explorers and approached {{OBP|Diana|Horizons}}, an old friend of his, with an offer to join the organization under the pretext of introducing her to [[Gibeon|someone who could aid her adventures]]. However, this was actually an attempt to obtain her pendant, which she refused to hand over. After that, the Explorers decided to pursue the pendant until they found out that it was in the possession of Diana's granddaughter [[Liko]], at which point they decided to find her in order to take it. Eventually, they were able to find Liko attending the [[Indigo Academy]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]].

===''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''===
[[File:Amethio HZ001.png|thumb|left|250px|Amethio battling Friede for the first time]]
The Explorers debuted in ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]''. One day, [[Amethio]] approached Liko at Indigo Academy's dormitories and, while under the guise of a representative of Diana, lied about being entasked to pick up the pendant in order to return it to her grandmother. Feeling something was amiss, Liko attempted to escape from him and his cohorts, [[Zirc]] and [[Onia]], but ended up cornered in a rooftop until [[Friede]] swooped in at the right time and engaged Amethio in a battle. Upon witnessing the collateral damage the battle was causing, Liko tried to run away and almost got hit by a stray {{m|Psycho Cut}} if not by her pendant suddenly generating an energy field in order to shield her, which Friede used as an opening to escape with her to the [[Brave Olivine]]. The Explorers, however, did not give up and [[HZ002|followed them to the airship]], even amidst a vicious thunderstorm. There, Friede and Amethio clashed again, albeit briefly, as this time, Liko stepped in, having her {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} unleash a {{m|Leafage}} powerful enough to break the barrier around the battlefield and expose everyone to the unrelenting weather. This forced the Explorers to retreat, but not without taking the {{pkmn|category|Grass Cat Pokémon}} as a hostage.
[[File:Explorers Admins.png|250px|thumb|Gibeon communicating with Explorers leaders after Amethio's mission in [[Kanto]]]]
In ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', Amethio battled against Friede once again; this time, however, the {{pkmn|Professor}} was just distracting him to allow Liko to find Sprigatito in the warehouse where they were hiding. While this was happening, Zirc managed to plant a tracker on Brave Olivine's hull. This allowed for the Explorers to follow the ship all the way to [[Roy's hometown|Roy's island]] via submarine, where both parties clashed once more in ''[[HZ005|Found You, Fuecoco!]]'' and ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]''. As Liko's Sprigatito and [[Roy]]'s soon-to-be {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}} were being overwhelmed by [[Amethio's Ceruledge]], the girl's pendant synced with the boy's {{DL|Poké Ball|Ancient Poké Ball}}, which finally opened up. From the artifact, emerged a mighty [[Black Rayquaza]], who indiscriminately rained devastation all over the the beach with a singular {{m|Draco Meteor}}, forcing the Explorers to retreat. Later, during a meeting with the other Explorers's higher-ups, [[Gibeon]], the organization's leader, removed Amethio from the mission of collecting the pendant and assigned it to [[Spinel]]. Afterwards, Amethio communicated to Zirc and Onia that he was going to pursue the Black Rayquaza from now on, believing its connection with the pendant to hold the key to the mystery behind it.
[[File:Spinel Beheeyem Teleport.png|left|250px|thumb|Spinel confronting Friede in [[Paldea]]]]
In ''[[HZ012|The Future I Choose]]'', it was revealed that Spinel was spying on the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] during their time in [[Paldea]] in order to learn more about them. The knowledge he acquired was put to use over the following episodes, as he commenced his attack on them. First, in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', he positioned his fleet of {{p|Magneton}} around the Brave Olivine to create an electromagnetic interference to mess with the data array of the ship, rendering it powerless during a system reboot. After successfully scaring them away at the beginning of the [[HZ014|following episode]], Friede followed one of the Magneton all the way to [[Levincia]], where he was ambushed by it and Spinel's {{p|Beheeyem}}, which were being commanded from a distance by their {{pkmn|Trainer}}, seemingly in order to have his strength tested. The next day, Spinel created a false advertisement for some Spicy [[Herba Mystica]] to lure Liko into a back alley in Levincia. There, he had his Beheeyem put her on a trance with its psychic powers, allowing him to collect her pendant without any mishaps. Over the [[HZ015|next episode]], a dazed Liko was left wandering around the city while the Rising Volt Tacklers were caught on a web of misinformation laid out by Spinel, which pointed her whereabouts to [[Artazon]] instead. At the end of the day, with the collective efforts of Roy and [[Dot]], she was able to fully regain her memory.

In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]'', Friede and the young Rising Volt Tacklers begun their counterattack to find the culprit and get the pendant back. The Professor went after a leaving cruise, where he was greeted and challenged by a [[Trainer (HZ016)|mysterious man]]—this, however, was one more red herring from Spinel. While this was happening, Dot and her {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} managed to pinpoint the pendant's location to a docked cargo ship and alerted her friends. The three of them battled against Spinel's Magneton and Beheeyem and won, but were not match to his {{p|Umbreon}}. At that moment, backed up against a wall, Liko's feelings begun resonating with the pendant, which shone brightly and gave Spinel's hiding location off. After Sprigatito returned the item to her Trainer, the pendant activated again and released {{p|Arboliva}} of the Six Heroes from its Ancient Poké Ball. Then, the group grabbed hold at the {{pkmn|category|Olive Pokémon}}'s arms before it jumped overboard, leaving Spinel at the ship with the understanding that Liko herself is the key to the pendant's secrets.

In ''[[HZ021|The Lonely Hatenna]]'', Amethio, Zirc, and Onia arrived in [[Galar]] after tracking the Black Rayquaza to [[Galar Mine]]. In the [[HZ022|following episode]], their path once again crossed with the Rising Volt Tacklers's: Amethio immediately engaged Friede in battle, while Zirc and Onia faced off against Roy, Liko, and [[Captain Pikachu]]. However, the battles came to a rather abrupt end when a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Moltres}} with an Ancient Poké Ball appeared and started attacking them. At the end of the [[HZ023|next episode]], it was revealed that the Explorers had witnessed the recapture of Moltres and Liko's pendant turning into a {{an|Terapagos|mysterious Pokémon}}, with Amethio deciding to go after the Rising Volt Tacklers in order to steal it.

In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', Amethio, Zirc, and Onia reported their findings to Hamber, which quickly contacted other Admins to head with him to the Galar region: he recruited [[Coral]] and [[Sidian]], as Spinel and [[Chalce]] were occupied in the Explorers's laboratory. Amethio's team followed Liko, Roy, and Friede to an [[ancient castle]] near [[Hammerlocke]], where they surrounded them in order to take the mysterious Pokémon away. The confrontation extended into the [[HZ025|following episode]] and ended up with Amethio's first official loss to Friede. Meanwhile, Hamber and his {{p|Dusknoir}} arrived at the place and confronted Diana, who questioned him about the Explorers's motives to target them. Then, a commotion provided by the arrival of Coral and Sidian allowed for her to escape the scene, as well as for Amethio's team to leave before being caught in the crossfire. The two Admins cornered Liko and Roy, only for Captain Pikachu to arrive and rescue them, fending off her {{p|Glalie}} and his {{p|Garganacl}} at once. This, however, made Coral snap and recklessly order her Glalie to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, allowing the Rising Volt Tacklers to escape and leaving the ancient castle in ruins.
[[File:Explorers Admin HZ027.png|thumb|250px|Explorers' Admins gathered to discuss their next steps]]
In ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]'', while the Rising Volt Tacklers had been once again caught in false information spread by Spinel, the Explorers Admins had a meeting to discuss their next move. They eventually concluded that the best course of action would be pursuing the Black Rayquaza itself instead of Terapagos in order to stay ahead. In [[HZ033]], Amethio's team detected that the Black Rayquaza in the [[Lapras Sea]], and as such they immediately went after it. However, despite his best efforts, he lost very easily when trying to battle it. Amethio also witnessed Terapagos transforming into its {{form|Terapagos|Terastal Form}} as it conjured up strength in order to protect Liko. In the [[HZ034|following episode]], after asking Hamber to train him in order to become stronger, they held a training match between their {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, which ended up with a victory to Hamber after he {{Tera}}stallized his Dusknoir.

===Other===
* In ''[[HZ006|The Ancient Poké Ball]]'' and several subsequent episodes, the Explorers leadership are shown using a virtual reality space to meet with each other and give reports to Hamber and Gibeon. The individual members use hologram technology to project themselves into this space, which appears and disappears upon their entering and leaving it. While Hamber and the five Explorers admins move around and interact with each other in this space as if it is real, Gibeon speaks through a holographic monolith that stands at the center of the space.
* In [[HZ044]], the Explorers are seen using a resonance generator that can transmit energy at long distances. After observing {{an|Terapagos}} using his equipment, Spinel was able to recreate Terapagos's energy signature on the resonance generator to attract the [[Black Rayquaza]].

'''Diana''' (Japanese: '''ダイアナ'' '''Diana'') is a supporting character in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. She is [[Liko]]'s grandmother and [[Lucca]]'s mother.

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Young Diana.png|250px|thumb|left|Diana in her childhood, finding the mysterious pendant]]
A few years before turning ten, Diana found in her home an old trunk containing a pendant and a book with memories of an [[Lucius|old Trainer]]'s journey. The text that Diana found in this book motivated her to travel on her own journey to find out if these stories were real. Together with her {{p|Growlithe}}, who would later [[Evolution|become]] a huge {{p|Arcanine}}, Diana traveled the world in search of answers, but was unable to find any.

In the midst of her journey in search of answers, Diana met several people, such as [[Tepen]] who became a frequent guest on her adventures and who was once trapped for days tied to a net made by the web of an {{p|Ariados}} next to Diana and also met [[Hamber]], who she also traveled with a few times in the past.

On one of her trips, Diana sought to learn about the myth of a {{p|Lapras}} that was seen by navigators around the world, but when she arrived at the place she was unable to find what she was looking for as she did not have the right equipment at the time. Although Diana tried several times to solve this mystery, there came a time when she gave up looking.
[[File:Adult Diana.png|250px|thumb|Diana as a young woman]]
However, about thirty years after starting her journey, Diana decided to stop looking for answers about the legend of Lucius and seek information about other myths. Some time later, she became a mother and had a daughter named [[Lucca]], who grew up somewhere in the [[Kanto]] region until she eventually moved to [[Paldea]] and lived there.

At some unspecified point in the past, she told her daughter, the story of Lucius. This story was also told to her [[Alex (Horizons)|son-in-law]], which inspired him to use it as the subject of one of his books.

Approximately one year before the events of ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]'', Diana gave a mysterious pendant to her [[Liko|granddaughter]]. She told Liko that she should trust her Pokémon to face fear and that this pendant would become important for her in the future. Some time after this, Hamber returned, wanting to introduce Diana to [[Gibeon]], who he said had the answers she was looking for. However, she realized that the man she knew was just another member of the [[Explorers]] that was after the pendant. This caused her to suggest that Lucca call the group of adventurers called the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] to protect Liko and the pendant.

====''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''====
[[File:Lucca Liko and Diana.png|250px|thumb|left|Diana with Lucca and Liko]]
In ''[[HZ001|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One)]]'', [[Amethio]] introduced himself to Liko as someone sent by her grandmother, however this turned out to be a lie and his interest was only in the pendant and the power it possessed.

In ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', she was briefly seen in Liko's dream. In the dream, Liko remembered the day she received the pendant as a gift.

Diana reappeared in ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'' during a flashback to Liko's earlier dream.

In ''[[HZ012|The Future I Choose]]'', it was revealed that Diana was living somewhere in the [[Galar]] [[region]]. Liko and the other members of the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] then decided to travel there.
[[File:Diana and Hamber HZ025.png|250px|thumb|Diana confronting Hamber]]
In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', Diana was at her [[ancient castle]], where she reunited with Liko and met her friends [[Roy]] and [[Friede]], who was one of Lucca's student. Diana also met Liko's Pokémon partners {{TP|Liko|Sprigatito}} and {{TP|Liko|Hatenna}}, which excited her. Also, Diana reunited with {{an|Terapagos}} and explained her past to Liko and her friends. However, the [[Explorers]], who have been following Liko and her friends, arrived at their location.

In the [[HZ025|next episode]], Diana tried to escape with the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]], taking with her research items on [[Lucius]], but she was confronted again by [[Hamber]]. After a brief but harsh conversation, she decided to escape through a collapsed wall, leaving her former friend behind. Later, Diana briefly joined the Rising Volt Tacklers and revealed to Liko some of the secrets she discovered about Lucius and the identities of the other Pokémon he had in ancient times.

In ''[[HZ026|Terapagos's Adventure!]]'', Diana attended a lunch with the Rising Volt Tacklers, and later, when she saw that Liko was having difficulty with Terapagos, she helped her and later told more about this Pokémon's past. After that, Diana handed Liko Lucius's belt and entrusted her granddaughter with the care of Terapagos.

In ''[[HZ027|As Long as I'm with My Friends]]'', Diana attended a get-together with the Rising Volt Tacklers in the [[Wild Area]]. At night, at the Brave Asagi, she talked to Roy about his goal of finding {{p|Rayquaza}}. Diana also revealed that she would introduce Liko and Roy to a friend of hers who works with antiques. In the [[HZ028|next episode]], Diana revealed that she was translating a text about Rakua, and indicated the place where [[Tepen]]'s store was to Liko, Roy and Friede. After discovering that the text was a fraud, Diana met with her granddaughter and her friends who were battling her former traveling partner who had stolen Roy's ancient Poké Ball. Diana then used Tepen's {{p|Bronzor}} to show him a reflection of his true character, inspiring him to return to his old self and reveal who he intended to sell the Poké Ball to.
[[File:Diana Friede HZ032.png|250px|thumb|left|Diana meets Lucius' Rayquaza alongside the Rising Volt Tacklers]]
In [[HZ030]], Diana was seen talking to Liko about a mysterious liquid that was found aboard the [[Brave Olivine]]. Upon hearing the reports, Diana decided to do an experiment with an antique teacup. After the group discovered that it was caused by a wild {{p|Polteageist}}, Diana joined the Rising Volt Tacklers for another get-together, when Friede drank the liquid that was in the antique teacup, Diana revealed that her experiment had worked and a {{p|Sinistea}} emerged from the cup, who joined the other Pokémon aboard the ship.

In [[HZ031]], Diana heard rumors about the {{p|Lapras}} again, who happened to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, after they got a led through a ship crew that saw the Transport Pokémon. After they group failed to get Lapras to come out, as there was {{m|Mist}} covering it and two Pokémon appeared on the ship, Diana witness a plan Friede devised to get the Transport Pokémon to come back, which worked. In the [[HZ032|next episode]], Diana helped her friends battle the Pokémon that were attempting to steal food from them. Diana even helped her friends get out of Lapras's {{m|Ice Beam}}, after the Transport Pokémon used the move to freeze the Brave Olivine. After Lapras decided to join the group, Diana and her friends witness the Black Rayquaza arriving at their location.

In [[HZ033]], Diana witnessed [[Amethio]] arrive and battle the Black Rayquaza, but he was defeated and Terapagos transformed to battle the Legendary Pokémon. However, after the Black Rayquaza left, Diana told Friede that she planned to travel alone again, intending to investigate the Explorers. Later, Diana did a training battle with Liko and Roy, but the match was called off. In the [[HZ034|next episode]], Diana attended a surprise party that Like and Roy setup for her departure, which she appreciated. Before leaving, Diana gave Liko her adventure log. Diana then bid farewell to Liko and the Rising Volt Tacklers.

Diana appeared in a flashback to Liko and Roy's journey in [[HZ045]].

===Character===
[[File:Diana Horizons Trainer.png|200px|thumb|Diana in her early days as a Trainer]]
As described by [[Liko]], her grandmother is an adventurer, who travels all over the {{pkmn|world}} and this ends up with her not having a fixed residence, never revealing her whereabouts to her family. Diana has a very strong appetite, quickly eating her breakfast before others and always requesting seconds. While friendly and cheerful, Diana can also show a very strong temper, as upon discovering her old friend [[Tepen]] scammed her, she ordered her Arcanine to burn him to a crisp, but quickly calmed down at Liko's behest.

Since she began traveling with the Rising Volt Tacklers, Diana quickly became part of the group, participating in interactions and meetings with members. During this period, Diana settled on the Brave Olivine's observation deck, where she often uses the telescope and has quick access to the outside of the ship. It's [[HZ031|later]] revealed that Diana managed to form a friendship with [[Dot]], who, despite the girl being quite closed to people, managed to find a lot in common with the adventurer.

In [[HZ030]], Diana revealed to Liko that she likes to be alone in a quiet place, especially to read, and occasionally talk while doing so.

In [[HZ033]], Diana revealed that she doesn't do well with technology, which is why she prefers to rely on her Squawkabilly than own a [[Rotom Phone]] to communicate with people.

In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', it was revealed that Arcanine was one of Diana's first Pokémon, accompanying her since it was a {{p|Growlithe}} during Diana's [[Pokémon journey]]. Around 30 years ago, already [[Evolution|evolved]], Arcanine appeared with Diana when she was already a young adult.

In the present day, Arcanine first appeared when [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Friede]] arrived at Diana's [[Old castle|castle]] near [[Hammerlocke]]. As the [[Explorers]] invaded the castle, Arcanine tried to warn Diana of the danger that surrounded them. In the [[HZ025|next episode]], after [[Coral]] had her {{p|Glalie}} use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, Arcanine helped its Trainer to escape from the explosion.

Despite its imposing posture, Arcanine is a very kind Pokémon towards Diana's friends and family.

It then flew off into the sunset, to eventually return to Diana in [[Galar]]. In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', it encountered [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and Friede as they approached [[Hammerlocke]] and showed them the way to the [[ancient castle]] where Diana was at. In the [[HZ025|next episode]], Squawkabilly tried to help Liko and Roy escape the [[Explorers]]' advance on the castle. After Liko and Roy were safe, Squawkabilly returned to its Trainer.

None of Squawkabilly's moves are known.}}

'''Ash's Rowlet''' (Japanese: '''サトシのモクロー''' ''Satoshi's Mokuroh'') is the first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{Ash}} {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Alola]] [[region]], and his forty-ninth overall. It is often seen [[Walking Pokémon|outside of its Poké Ball]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''====
=====As a wild Pokémon=====
[[File:Pikipek Egg.png|thumb|left|250px|Rowlet's Egg (far back) among Pikipek Eggs]]
Rowlet debuted in ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]''. A flashback revealed that Rowlet had been born into a flock of {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Pikipek}}, led by a {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Toucannon}} and {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Trumbeak}}, and they took it in as one of their own. Later, it joined its flock to gather fruit from a town on [[Melemele Island]]. Rowlet mistook a wind chime for food and brought its bounty to its nest, only to be scolded by Trumbeak that evening and being sent back to gather more.
[[File:Rowlet leaving its nest.png|thumb|250px|Rowlet being encouraged by Toucannon to go with Ash]]
The next day, a tired Rowlet noticed a sweet smell being produced by [[Mallow's Bounsweet]]. Believing it to be fruit, Rowlet tried to take Bounsweet, only to be deflected each time it tried. Eventually, the exhausted Rowlet fell out of the sky, but was caught in time by {{Ash}}. Rowlet was given a bunch of fruit to eat and after finishing its meal, it took a watermelon and returned to its nest, prompting Ash and {{an|Mallow}} to follow it.

Ash and Mallow soon found Rowlet's nest, but their reunion was cut short by {{TRT}}, who arrived to take back the {{Berries}} the flock had taken from {{an|Bewear}}. After trapping the flock in nets, Team Rocket set their sights on {{AP|Pikachu}}. While Pikachu battled [[Jessie's Mimikyu]], Rowlet freed its friends and then used {{m|Leafage}} to save Pikachu from Mimikyu's attack. Before the battle could go on any longer, Bewear returned and carried Team Rocket back to its den. Ash thanked Rowlet for saving the day before saying goodbye, not wanting to separate it from its family in its nest. Seeing how it wanted to join Ash, Toucannon gave Rowlet its permission to leave the nest. Rowlet happily dove into Ash's [[bag|backpack]] and waved goodbye to its family. Delighted, Ash threw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Rowlet and caught it.

=====With Ash=====
[[File:Ash and Rowlet.png|thumb|left|250px|Rowlet and Ash]]
Rowlet participated in its first official {{pkmn|battle}} in ''[[SM008|Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!]]'', where it went up against [[Hobbes]] and his {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Oricorio|Pom-Pom Style}} {{p|Oricorio}}. Hobbes showed off his great battling skills by having Oricorio gracefully dodge Rowlet's Leafage and shock it afterwards with {{m|Revelation Dance}}. Furthermore, Oricorio was able to counter Rowlet's {{m|Tackle}} with {{m|Mirror Move}}. Rowlet, however, was able to overpower Oricorio and knock it back using its sheer leg strength. Eventually, Oricorio used {{m|Teeter Dance}} which {{status|confusion|confused}} Rowlet, allowing the Dancing Pokémon to knock it out with {{m|Double Slap}}.

In ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', Rowlet was used in Ash's first [[island challenge]] trial in [[Verdant Cavern]]. Alongside Pikachu, it first fought a {{p|Yungoos}} and {{p|Gumshoos}}. The two {{type|Normal}}s showed to be tough opponents, as they were able to use {{m|Sand Attack}} to obstruct Rowlet and Pikachu's sight and movements before hitting them with their attacks. Ash came up a similar tactic using its Leafage, allowing it to knock Yungoos out with Tackle, while Pikachu defeated Gumshoos. Afterwards, Rowlet and Pikachu had to face a {{pkmn2|Totem}} Gumshoos. Rowlet attempted to assist Pikachu in battle, but it was defeated by a single hit from Gumshoos's {{m|Fling}}.

In ''[[SM010|Trial and Tribulation!]]'', Ash used Rowlet as his first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[Melemele Island]] grand trial, where it battled against [[Hala]]'s {{DL|Hala|Crabrawler}}. It managed to hit Crabrawler with a super effective {{m|Peck}} after dodging a {{m|Bubble Beam}}. Rowlet's attempt to hit a second Peck was stopped however, allowing Crabrawler to hurl it in the air using {{m|Brutal Swing}} followed by a hit from {{m|Power-Up Punch}}. Using a collision between Leafage and Bubble Beam, Rowlet turned the tables by sneaking up on Crabrawler and hit it with a series of Pecks. After barely dodging another Power-Up Punch, it managed to outmaneuver Crabrawler and defeat it with Tackle. Afterwards, Rowlet fell asleep, preventing Ash from using it for the next battle.

In ''[[SM016|They Might Not Be Giants!]]'', Rowlet was asleep on the beach while Ash, {{an|Lana}}, Mallow, Pikachu, and {{AP|Rockruff}} watched [[Lana's Popplio]] practice making balloons. However, as Popplio was making a balloon, Mallow's Bounsweet sneezed, and blasted out its sweet scent by accident. The scent promptly awoke Rowlet and it flew towards Bounsweet, who instinctively deflected it. Rowlet was sent flying at a high speed into Popplio, and the two eventually floated away in Popplio's balloon. While the others looked for the duo, Rowlet accidentally popped the balloon, causing the duo to fall straight onto a radar that Team Rocket was constructing, with Rowlet getting caught in a ring that was part of the machinery. With this ring, Rowlet was unable to fly. Popplio distracted Team Rocket by using {{m|Bubble Beam}}, then bounced Rowlet on its nose so the two could escape. The two were confronted by {{MTR}} and [[James's Mareanie]], but were saved by a {{AP|Litten}}. Litten took the duo to its home, where {{an|Stoutland}} advised it to take the two back to their Trainers. During their long search, the trio got caught by Team Rocket. However, they managed to escape thanks to Litten and blasted Team Rocket off with their combined attacks. Afterwards, Rowlet and Popplio were reunited with their Trainers, with Ash removing Rowlet's ring.
[[File:Ash Rowlet defending Litten.png|thumb|250px|Rowlet protecting Litten during the Lush Jungle trial]]
In ''[[SM035|Currying Favor and Flavor!]]'', Rowlet was sent out to assist Litten in battling a Totem {{p|Lurantis}} and its ally {{p|Castform}} in the [[Lush Jungle]] trial. When Litten was tired and about to be hit by a super effective {{m|Water Gun}} from Castform, Rowlet jumped in and took the attack, easily shaking it off and knocked out the Castform with a single Tackle, getting rid of the {{m|Sunny Day}} it had set up in the process. This allowed Litten to defeat Lurantis, meaning Ash cleared the trial and earning him a [[Grassium Z]].

In ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', Rowlet was used in the [[Akala Island]] grand trial alongside Rockruff, battling [[Olivia's Lycanroc]] and {{p|Probopass}}. Despite their opponents giving them tough times with their combination tactics, Rowlet eventually managed to defeat Probopass with {{m|Bloom Doom}}. Unfortunately for Ash, Rockruff impulsively attacked Rowlet in a fit of aggression, accidentally knocking it out and leaving the Puppy Pokémon to face Lycanroc alone.

In ''[[SM053|Rescuing the Unwilling!]]'', Rowlet and Litten joined Lana, {{an|Sophocles}}, and Mallow in the fight against {{an|Lusamine}}'s {{p|Mismagius}}, {{p|Milotic}}, and {{p|Lilligant}}, which were being controlled by {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Nihilego}}. Rowlet used Tackle to free [[Ash's friends]] and their Pokémon from Lilligant's Teeter Dance, but Lilligant drew Rowlet towards it with its {{m|Sweet Scent}} move. In [[SM054|the next episode]], Mallow's Steenee emitted its own Sweet Scent to bring Rowlet back to her. Rowlet was launched into the air by Steenee's Double Slap and afterwards kicked back towards the ground, allowing Rowlet to perform a high-speed Peck attack, dubbed "Rowlaunch" by Lana, on Lilligant. The attack angered Lilligant, causing it to charge up its {{m|Solar Beam}} attack, but Litten interrupted the move with {{m|Fire Fang}}. Although Lilligant appeared to have been defeated by this move, Nihilego made it get back up and continue battling. The battle ended when Ash and Pikachu performed {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}} to defeat Nihilego.

In ''[[SM075|Some Kind of Laziness!]]'', Ash went to see {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Bulu}} so it could help train for a rematch with [[Nanu]]. After agreeing to help, Tapu Bulu used its powers to make several large trees grow instantly before resting on them to absorb their energy. When Rowlet decided to roost on the trees, it absorbed some of the trees' energy as well, causing it to learn {{m|Razor Leaf}}.

In ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', Rowlet joined the rest of Alola in showering {{an|Necrozma}} with light so it could return to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|normal form}}.
[[File:Everstone SM anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Rowlet's Everstone]]
In ''[[SM097|No Stone Unturned!]]'', Rowlet was used in Ash's battle against [[Hau]], where it went up against its evolved form {{p|Dartrix}}. Rowlet's tendency to fall asleep caused trouble for it, and it was eventually defeated when Ash ended up dropping his Grassium Z while trying to use it. That night, Rowlet became serious, attacking the {{m|Substitute}} {{pkmn|doll}} in {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s house. The next day, Ash and Rowlet visited Rowlet's old foster family, who demonstrated how to use {{m|Bullet Seed}}, despite {{Rotom}} telling Ash that Rowlet can't learn the move. While searching for small rocks suitable for its Bullet Seed training, Rowlet found an [[Everstone]] and swallowed it, much to Ash's horror. Even though Rowlet was able to spit out the stone, it immediately swallowed it again, having taken a liking to it. Using the example of its foster parents, it subsequently learned to use {{m|Seed Bomb}} with the Everstone. The next day, Rowlet and Ash had a rematch against Hau, managing to pull off a win this time around with Bloom Doom.

In ''[[SM111|Show Me the Metal!]]'', a {{AP|Meltan}} approached Rowlet as it slept at the [[Pokémon School]]. When Rowlet woke up, Meltan was startled and dropped the hex nut on its head to the school roof, from which it was almost taken by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Murkrow}}, but Rowlet managed to get the hex nut first and returned it to its proper owner, making Meltan like Rowlet. As Rowlet subsequently flew into Ash's backpack to sleep, Meltan followed it, and was thus unknowingly taken to Professor Kukui's house by Ash later.
[[File:SM118.png|thumb|250px|Rowlet battling Zweilous and Druggigon]]
In ''[[SM112|Got Meltan?]]'', Rowlet helped Meltan when it lost its nut head. Later, when Team Rocket attempted to capture Meltan, Rowlet stepped in, protecting it from multiple {{m|Fury Swipes}} until Meltan stepped up and defeated Team Rocket with {{m|Flash Cannon}}. Meltan was later caught by Ash.

In ''[[SM118|Aiming for the Top Floor!]]'', Ash decided to use Rowlet during his battle against [[Ryuki]] at the [[Kantonian Gym]], intending to use Rowlet's laid-back nature to prevent it from getting distracted by Ryuki's music, which had gotten [[Kiawe's Marowak]] defeated shortly earlier. Although the strategy worked, Rowlet was soon caught by Ryuki's {{p|Zweilous}}'s {{m|Bite}}. Seeing its friend in trouble, Meltan angrily retaliated by eating away some of the decorations on Ryuki's suit. Ryuki changed the battle into a [[Double Battle]], with Ash using Rowlet and Meltan against Ryuki's Zweilous and {{p|Druddigon}}. Due to its slow movements, Meltan was unable to dodge Druddigon's {{m|Dragon Claw}}s and was forced to try to protect itself with {{m|Harden}}. As Meltan's endurance was running low, Rowlet's {{m|Peck}} suddenly evolved into {{m|Brave Bird}}, allowing it to save Meltan from being defeated. Rowlet and Meltan launched a combination attack at Zweilous and Druddigon, defeating them and winning the battle for Ash.

In ''[[SM131|The Battlefield of Truth and Love!]]'', Ash chose to use Rowlet in his upcoming battle against Hau and his {{p|Decidueye}}. Upon learning this, Rowlet flew into the sky and approached a wild {{p|Wingull}}, asking it to bring its foster family to the [[Manalo Stadium]].
[[File:Ash Rowlet Decidueye costume.png|thumb|250px|left|Rowlet's Decidueye cloak]]
In ''[[SM132|Imitation Is the Sincerest Form of Strategy!]]'', Ash and Rowlet were training for their battle when its family arrived at the stadium. Toucannon and Trumbeak demonstrated to Rowlet how to use the move {{m|Feather Dance}}. Rowlet attempted to master it afterwards, but before it could do so, the battle was already about to begin. Trumbeak and the Pikipek returned with a cloak resembling Decidueye, prompting Lana to refer to Rowlet as '''Decidulet''' (Japanese '''ジュナクロー''' ''Junakroh'') and the battle started. Ash and Rowlet attempted to attack Decidueye with Bloom Doom, but Decidueye was able to dodge it before trapping Rowlet with {{m|Spirit Shackle}}. This nearly left Rowlet unable to avoid {{m|Sinister Arrow Raid}}, but it barely avoided the attack by making it hit its cloak instead.

The match continued in [[SM133|the next episode]], with Rowlet enduring a series of powerful {{m|Leaf Blade}} and {{m|Razor Leaf}} attacks. Ash had Rowlet retaliate with {{m|Brave Bird}}, which Decidueye intercepted with {{m|Sky Attack}}. When the smoke cleared, Decidueye eventually got back on its feet while Rowlet lay face-down on the ground. However, just as Nanu was about to award the victory to Hau, Hala quickly realized that Rowlet was sleeping instead and allowed the match to continue. After being hit by Spirit Shackle, Rowlet was able to master Feather Dance while avoiding Sky Attack, molting the entirety of its surface plumage. Afterwards, it knocked Decidueye out with Brave Bird, winning the match.

In ''[[SM142|A Full Battle Bounty!]]'', Rowlet was the third Pokémon Ash used during his [[Full Battle]] against Professor Kukui. Again donning the Decidueye cloak, it went up against his {{p|Braviary}}, which had just defeated {{AP|Lycanroc}}. After an aerial struggle, Rowlet was able to dodge Braviary's [[Superpower (move)|Superpower]] and strike with Brave Bird to defeat Braviary. Rowlet then went up against Kukui's {{p|Venusaur}} and ended up getting trapped inside his flower while trying to use Brave Bird. Though Rowlet was able to escape from a {{m|Solar Beam}} by using the cloak-substitution strategy with Feather Dance, it was soon defeated by a combination of a super-effective {{m|Sludge Bomb}} and a powerful {{m|Vine Whip}}.

Following Ash's decision to travel the {{pkmn|world}}, he left Rowlet, along with his other Alolan Pokémon, with Professors Kukui and {{an|Professor Burnet|Burnet}}, before heading back to [[Pallet Town]].

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
In ''[[JN037|That New Old Gang of Mine!]]'', Rowlet greeted Ash upon his return to Alola and also met [[Goh]].

In ''[[JN112|Helping the Hometown Hero!]]'', Rowlet attended a party to celebrate the return of Lillie and her family after they found [[Mohn]].

In ''[[JN131|Paring Pokémon While Parrying!]]'', Rowlet was seen watching Ash's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] match against {{an|Leon}} at the [[Pokémon School]]. In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Rowlet appeared as a vision to Pikachu during his battle against [[Leon's Charizard]].

In ''[[JN138|A Fated Face-Off!]]'', Rowlet was shown to have rejoined Ash's team. During the episode, it met {{an|Misty}} and later watched as she and Ash battled over a wild {{TP|Misty|Clauncher}}.

===Personality and characteristics===
[[File:Ash Rowlet Nebby backpack.png|thumb|250px|left|Rowlet sleeping in Ash's backpack with Nebby]]
Rowlet is somewhat naive and absentminded. In ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]'', it brought a wind chime from a market on [[Hau'oli City]] to its nest, thinking it was fruit. When {{Ash}} asked it to find {{an|Lillie}} in ''[[SM014|Getting to Know You!]]'', it returned with a watermelon instead. Its carefree nature can also be seen in the way it dealt with the [[Everstone]] it found in ''[[SM097|No Stone Unturned!]]'': unlike other Pokémon that have prevented themselves from evolving, like [[Ash's Pikachu]] or [[Dawn's Piplup]], Rowlet doesn't seem uninterested in [[evolution]] or shows a desire to become stronger just as it is—it appears to have done so unintentionally, having decided it simply liked the Everstone better than any other rock it found on the ground. It is irresistibly drawn to the aroma of {{m|Sweet Scent}}, which is mainly seen with [[Mallow's Tsareena]], and will be attracted to it even if the user is an opponent, such as {{an|Lusamine}}'s {{p|Lilligant}} in ''[[SM053|Rescuing the Unwilling!]]''. Similarly, Rowlet is easily distracted by the smell of {{TRT}}'s honey donuts, which can be seen in ''[[SM067|Love at First Twirl!]]'' and ''[[SM112|Got Meltan?]]''.

Ash and Rowlet quickly bonded after meeting each other. Seeing how much it wanted to join him, {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Toucannon}} encouraged Rowlet to go with Ash as they were parting ways. Rowlet likes to roost and sleep in the tight space of his [[Bag|backpack]] and does not mind having company inside the bag as well, having shared it at different points with {{DL|Nebby|In the anime|Nebby}} and {{AP|Meltan|Melmetal}}. Its closeness to Ash can be seen when it sits or sleeps on his head or shoulders. Rowlet seems to lack some level of experience and likes to please its caretakers, as seen in ''First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!'', when it stayed up all night searching for fruit to take back to its nest, and ''[[SM016|They Might Not Be Giants!]]'', when it was shown to be happy at the thought that Ash would be brought to tears of joy after it reunites with its Trainer. In the same episode, it also revealed a cowardly side to itself, cowering in fear at the presence of a {{an|Stoutland}} due to its appearance.
[[File:Rowlet sleeping during battle.png|thumb|250px|Rowlet sleeping amidst a battle]]
It has also been shown to be a very relaxed Pokémon, such as in ''[[SM005|Yo, Ho, Ho! Go, Popplio!]]'', when it spent most of the episode not being bothered by whatever was going on around it, including being splashed by water of being kidnapped by Team Rocket. During the events of ''They Might Not Be Giants!'', Rowlet remained somewhat carefree about the whole situation, even taking naps at some points, much to {{TP|Lana|Popplio|Primarina}}'s dismay. In ''[[SM118|Aiming for the Top Floor!]]'', it was shown to not be distracted by music, having been specifically chosen by Ash to battle [[Ryuki]] for this very reason. Rowlet is often seen sleeping during the day, only waking up when it is needed by someone else, mainly for battling. This trait was shown in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', ''[[SM035|Currying Favor and Flavor!]]'', and ''Aiming for the Top Floor!'', when Ash called Rowlet out to battle, only to find it asleep. Moreover, it has been shown to sleep in almost any situation, be it mid-air, as seen in ''[[SM010|Trial and Tribulation!]]'', whilst being buried under sand, as seen in ''[[SM109|A Grand Debut!]]'', or even in the middle of a battle, such as in ''[[SM133|Battling on the Wing!]]''. In its time as a [[wild Pokémon]], Rowlet was even seen nodding off as it was being lectured by {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Trumbeak}}. However, this does not seem to be a trait common to Rowlet as a species, as {{Rotom}} noted that it shouldn't be sleeping so much in ''[[SM029|Lulled to La-La Land!]]''.
[[File:Rowlet Decidueye Rivalry.png|thumb|250px|left|Rowlet's rivalry with Decidueye]]
Like its species is known for, Rowlet is capable of flying silently and delivering powerful kicks, traits which can be seen as soon as its debut episode. It is also a fast flyer, capable of dodging a [[Z-Move]] with {{AP|Rockruff|Lycanroc}} in tow during Ash's [[Akala Island]] Grand Trial in ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]''. In ''To Top a Totem!'', it took initiative by cornering an opposing {{p|Yungoos}} without being commanded. Additionally, in ''Currying Favor and Flavor!'', it was shown instinctively shielding {{AP|Litten|Incineroar}} from getting hit by a super-effective {{m|Water Gun}}, and in ''Got Meltan?'', Rowlet protected Meltan from a flurry of {{MTR}}'s {{m|Fury Swipes}}. These situations show that Rowlet is an independent and quick-thinking Pokémon, as well as loyal to its friends. Rowlet has taken a more serious approach to battling after its loss to [[Hau]]'s {{p|Dartrix}} in ''No Stone Unturned!'', to the point of returning to its nest in order to get some training with its old foster family. Since then, Rowlet has developed a rivalry with {{p|Decidueye}}. While normally friendly, they can be extremely competitive, as seen in ''[[SM131|The Battlefield of Truth and Love!]]'', when they interacted aggressively and passionately upon learning they would be facing each other in the [[Manalo Conference]].
[[File:Ash Rowlet Melmetal.png|thumb|250px|Rowlet and Melmetal]]
Starting in ''[[SM111|Show Me the Metal!]]'', Rowlet formed a close friendship with a Meltan. In fact, it was this closeness between the two Pokémon that allowed Ash to catch Meltan. This particular Meltan approached Rowlet while it was asleep and started to take a nap, but ended up being frightened by Rowlet as it woke up and ended up losing its hex nut. Rowlet managed to return it back to Meltan, swooping in before a wild {{p|Murkrow}} could do so. Rowlet spent the next day taking care of Meltan, who had lost its hex nut after almost being kidnapped by a Murkrow. Rowlet's protectiveness of its friends saw it take Meowth's Fury Swipes in the place of Meltan until it, moved by Rowlet's actions, decided to retaliate with a {{m|Flash Cannon}}, evidencing the strong bond they had formed in a short period of time. A similar thing occurred in ''Aiming for the Top Floor!'', when Rowlet gathered its resolve and learned {{m|Brave Bird}} to fight Ryuki's Pokémon after Meltan was the receiving end of a series of {{m|Dragon Claw}} attacks.

Rowlet often had to prevent Meltan from causing damage, such as in ''[[SM116|The Secret Princess!]]'', when it stopped the Hex Nut Pokémon from eating a frying pan. Despite being asleep during Meltan's evolution into Melmetal in ''[[SM138|Final Rivals!]]'', Rowlet instantly recognized its friend upon waking up, congratulating it and finding a nice place to rest inside the hole in its stomach, called '''Mel-Row-Tan''' (Japanese: '''メタルモロー''' ''Metalmoroh'') by Ash.

'''Lycanroc''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルガルガン''' ''Lugarugan'') is a {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Rockruff}} starting at [[level]] 25. The [[#Form data|form]] Rockruff evolves into depends on the {{DL|Time|Time-based evolutions|time}}, as well as its [[Ability]], which corresponds to one of Rockruff's [[Rockruff (Pokémon)#Form data|two visually indistinct forms]].
* Rockruff with the Abilities {{a|Keen Eye}}, {{a|Vital Spirit}}, or {{a|Steadfast}} evolve into:
** '''Midday Form''' Lycanroc when leveled up during the day.
** '''Midnight Form''' Lycanroc when leveled up at night.
* Rockruff with the Ability {{a|Own Tempo}} evolve into '''Dusk Form''' Lycanroc when leveled up during the evening.
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for these details.)

==Biology==
Lycanroc is a canine {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling a wolf. It has three possible forms: Midday Form, Midnight Form, and Dusk Form. The first two forms are influenced by {{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}} when bathed in solar or lunar energy. The third form is said to have been influenced by the setting sun of the evening. Lycanroc are used by humans as guards, to protect their fields from prey {{p|Deerling}}.

;Midday Form
In its Midday Form, Lycanroc resembles a quadrupedal, light brown wolf. It has a white underbelly that extends up around its muzzle and eyes in a mask-like marking. It has pointed ears with dark brown tips and pink insides, big blue eyes, and a triangular, dark brown nose. There are four sharp fangs in its mouth: two in the upper jaw and two in the lower. Large tufts of brown fur extend from the sides of its head; three tufts on each side. A bushy, white mane covers its neck. Four dark brown rocks poke out of its mane, creating a shape similar to a stylized sun. The rocks are said to be razor-sharp. The lower portions of this form's legs are white, and each foot has three dark brown claws. It also has a long, fluffy white tail.

The Midday Form has a calm, collected, and cautious personality. In order to avoid needless fighting, the Midday Form prefers to live alone and does not form a pack with others of its kind. However, it is a fiercely loyal partner to Trainers that accept it during its unruly stage. In battle, it darts past opponents while attacking them with the rocks in its mane. These swift movements leave many foes bewildered and backed into a corner.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190504015619/https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/lycanroc-midday-form/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Midday Lycanroc (Archived)]</ref> It always aims for the foes' weak spot using its fangs. Broken fragments of its stone mane are considered good luck.

;Midnight Form
In its Midnight Form, Lycanroc instead resembles a slouched, bipedal wolf or werewolf. It has short red fur with white on its lower legs and a white streak that covers its face, underbelly, and tail. It has pointed, {{wp|Canine terminology#Ears|button ears}} with black tips, three large tufts of fur on each side of its face, a triangular black nose, and a mouth full of sharp teeth. While the sclerae, irises, and pupils of its eye are visible, they all glow a pinkish red and no distinctive colors are visible. A mane of fur covers its back and shoulders, sweeping forward over its head to form a crescent moon shape. On either side of its body, just below the shoulders, two small rocks resembling claws poke out of the mane. A single, bigger stone projects out of the front of the mane over its head. Each of this form's paws has three black claws, and it has a stubby tail covered in long fur.

In contrast, Lycanroc's Midnight Form is thrilled by battling and becomes more excited the stronger its opponent. This excitement is what causes its eyes to glow.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190504015619/https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/lycanroc-midnight-form/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Midnight Lycanroc (Archived)]</ref> The Midnight Form is known to be reckless along with extremely vicious temper. Its strategy consists of closing in on its opponent and encouraging attack, then countering with a powerful blow that knocks out its opponent. The full force of its headbutts can destroy giant boulders. Trainers that can draw out its power earn its trust, but it despises those that it disagrees with or who try to force it to fight.

;Dusk Form
In its Dusk Form, Lycanroc resembles a combination of its Midday and Midnight Forms. Its body is similar to Midday Form with the same white color except with orange-gold fur. It retains the three brown claws for all four feet. The white fluffy mane resembles a sun with part of the crescent moon. It also has four rocks around its neck like a sun as well along with a single, bigger stone coming from the mane over its head. Its face resembles Midday Form Lycanroc's but is orange-gold with bright green eyes, which can change to bright glowing red when angry or attacking.

The Dusk Form Lycanroc shares traits from the previous two forms. Its stance, calm demeanor, and loyal nature are shared with the Midday Form. However, it also shares the Midnight Form's fighting spirit, including the red, glowing eyes at the moment of attack. Dusk Form Lycanroc never barks, unlike its two other forms. Upon entering battle, Lycanroc will relentlessly drive its opponents into a corner. Due to only evolving at sunset, the Dusk Form is considered the rarest of the three forms.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170815175546/https://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/secrets-of-lycanroc-dusk-form-revealed Dusk Lycanroc Revealed (Archived)]</ref> The Dusk Form of Lycanroc is rather difficult to train due to its temperamental nature. Because of this, Dusk Form Lycanroc is considered the most troublesome of its three forms.

They train themselves by running around. Rockruff evolves into Lycanroc, which has two different forms based on when it evolves. It evolves into Midday Form Lycanroc during the day and Midnight Form Lycanroc during the night. Furthermore, when it gets close to evolving, Rockruff's temperament becomes more aggressive, and it tends to act more independent.

===Form data===
{{p|Lycanroc}} has three non-interchangeable forms: Midday Form, Midnight Form, and Dusk Form.

Internally, the games consider {{p|Rockruff}} with {{a|Own Tempo}} to be a [[Rockruff (Pokémon)#Form data|separate form]] to Rockruff with {{a|Keen Eye}}, {{a|Vital Spirit}}, or {{a|Steadfast}}, and Rockruff with Own Tempo and Dusk Form Lycanroc can {{pkmn|breeding|breed}} to produce more Rockruff with Own Tempo. After initially being {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive, Own Tempo Rockruff and Dusk Form Lycanroc were later made accessible within normal gameplay starting in [[Generation VIII]].

Lycanroc's forms have different [[base stats]], {{Abilities}}, [[move]]s they can learn, and [[cry|cries]].

|}

===Evolution data===
Lycanroc [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Rockruff}} starting at [[level]] 25. The [[#Form data|form]] Rockruff evolves into depends on the {{DL|Time|Time-based evolutions|time}}, as well as its [[Ability]], which corresponds to one of Rockruff's [[Rockruff (Pokémon)#Form data|two visually indistinct forms]].

Rockruff with the Abilities {{a|Keen Eye}}, {{a|Vital Spirit}}, or {{a|Steadfast}} evolve into Midday Form Lycanroc when leveled up during the day, and Midnight Form Lycanroc when leveled up at night. In [[Generation VII]], Rockruff only evolves into Midday Form Lycanroc in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, and Midnight Form Lycanroc in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}.

Rockruff with the Ability {{a|Own Tempo}} is a separate form that can only evolve into Dusk Form Lycanroc.

==Trivia==
* The [[QR Code]] displayed in the [[Pokédex]] entry for Dusk Form Lycanroc is actually that of Midday Form Lycanroc.
* Lycanroc and {{p|Mr. Mime}} are the only two Pokémon known to have six possible {{Abilities}} between their forms, the most of any Pokémon.
* In [[Generation IX]], prior to the Version 2.0.1 update of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, Dusk Form Lycanroc was unable to learn {{m|Mud-Slap}} and {{m|Body Slam}} via [[TM]], while its pre-evolution could.

===Origin===
Overall, Lycanroc shares traits with the extinct {{wp|Japanese wolf|Japanese}} and {{wp|Hokkaido wolf|Hokkaido wolves}} in particular. Its {{t|Rock}} typing seems to be a reference to the link between {{wp|Wolf|wolves}} (also called as 山犬 ''yamainu'', lit. mountain dog) and mountains in Japan.

Lycanroc's Midday and Dusk Forms appear to be based on a wolf, while its Midnight Form appears to be based on a {{wp|werewolf}}. The duality between Midday and Midnight Forms may be a reference to the {{wp|okuri-inu}}, a mountain wolf creature that could take either a protective approach, similar to Midday Form's behavior; or an aggressive one much like Midnight Form's.

The coloration of Dusk Form Lycanroc appears to be based on sunrises and sunsets. Its orange fur resembles the sky during these times, and its green eyes are possibly inspired by the rare optical phenomenon known as the {{wp|green flash}}, a brief flash of green light that can sometimes be seen above the sun. This is supported by Dusk Form Lycanroc’s evolution method, and Ash’s {{AP|Lycanroc}} in the anime evolving during a sunset in which a green flash is visible.

====Name origin====
Lycanroc may be a combination of ''{{wp|werewolf|lycanthrope}}'' and ''rock''.

Lugarugan may be a combination of ''{{wp|rougarou}}'', ''loup-garou'' (French for ''werewolf''), ガルル ''garuru'' (a dog's growling), and 岩 ''gan'' (rock).

==Blurb==


Ash and Pikachu are doing what they love as they travel to different places. But when Ash’s mom asks to meet at a nearby Pokémon Center, he heads out right away—his dad will be there, too! On the way, Ash befriends a boy named Sunny, who eventually leads him to a berry patch near a house. There, Ash meets a man and woman who reveal that Sunny is their son who passed away a year ago. Ash returns Sunny’s hat to them, then helps Sunny pet Pikachu before they part ways. At the Pokémon Center, Ash’s dad has already departed, but he left Ash a present—a brand-new hat!

==Plot==
{{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}} is swimming in a river, filled with many {{t|Water}} Pokémon, when a {{p|Gyarados}} comes towards him and lifts him out of the water. Ash calls {{AP|Pikachu|Pikachu (M20)}} for help, jumping off Gyarados before Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the {{pkmn|category|Atrocious Pokémon}}. The young {{pkmn|Trainer}} throws a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Gyarados, but after a few shakes, Gyarados escapes the attempted {{pkmn2|Caught|capture}} and swims away. Taking the loss well, Ash waves Gyarados goodbye before turning his attention to {{OBP|Len|JNS05}}, another Trainer who had been swimming with him. Once both of them are in their proper clothes, they have a brief {{pkmn|battle}}, which ends with Pikachu defeating Len's {{p|Machamp}} with a Thunderbolt. Ash and Pikachu subsequently make their way to a [[Pokémon Center]], where Ash's mother {{Delia}} contacts them and tells Ash that she's in [[Tonari Town]], where she's going to be meeting Ash's father the next day. Excited at the thought of seeing his father again after a long time, Ash sets off towards Tonari Town. Behind him, the [[Team Rocket trio]] sheds their latest [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguises]] and bolts off after him, once again aiming to steal Pikachu.

After passing through a tunnel under a giant tree, Ash enters a forest teeming with Pokémon. He and Pikachu settle down for the night, but when Ash is woken up by a {{p|Lickitung}} the next morning, he notices that Pikachu is gone. A boy appears and offers to lead Ash to Pikachu, revealing to him that Pikachu was taken away by some weird people in weird clothes. They quickly find Team Rocket in the midst of celebrating their apparent success and seemingly inevitable admin promotion. Ash descends down a cliff to confront the three, who have sealed Pikachu inside an insulated capsule, with the only key to it being in their possession. However, while they routinely perform their {{motto}}, Ash casually takes the key from them and frees Pikachu, who proceeds to send them blasting off, ending yet another one of their schemes in failure.

Ash thanks the boy, who introduces himself as {{OBP|Sunny|JNS05}}, for his help, and offers to shake his hand. Instead of taking the offered hand, however, Sunny asks what touching Pokémon is like, since he's never experienced it himself, despite loving Pokémon very much. Ash describes the sensation as warming and soft, and offers to find a Pokémon from the forest for Sunny to touch. Unfortunately, each of these attempts ends in failure, until the escape from a horde of {{p|Beedrill}} leads the two boys in the middle of an [[Oran Berry]] orchard next to a house. Inside they see a man painting pictures of the sky, with Sunny pointing out the painting that he considers his favorite. A woman named [[So and Sue|Sue]] appears, while her husband, [[So and Sue|So]], briefly comes out of the house. Ash turns around to address Sunny, only see that he's gone. So tells Ash he can take as as many Oran Berries as he wants, while Sue offers to help Ash to pick some. The gathered Oran Berries are piled in a basket, with Sue also throwing in a couple of breads made from the {{Berries}} in the forest. Ash thanks her and leaves, reuniting with Sunny as soon as the house is out of sight. Sunny apologizes for leaving unexpectedly and says he just chased after a Pokémon he saw. Ash offers him one of the breads he got, but Sunny claims he's already eaten a plentiful breakfast and lets Ash have both. While confused by this, Ash accepts this and sits down to eat with Pikachu.

Seeing how well Ash understands Pikachu, Sunny asks Ash's help with something and leads him to a pack of {{p|Mankey}}, one of whom is wearing a cap that Sunny acknowledges as his favorite hat. Ash recalls how his {{AP|hat}} was also once stolen by a {{AP|Mankey|Primeape}} and agrees to help, but refrains from using Pikachu in order to avoid damaging the hat with his {{t|Electric}} attacks. Instead, he confronts the Mankey and tells them to return the hat. The Mankey refuse, forcing Ash to chase the one wearing the cap, until it ends up accidentally running onto an {{p|Onix}}. Ash saves Mankey from falling off from Onix and retrieves the hat. Mankey is upset from losing the hat it liked, so Ash gives it his own hat as compensation. He tries to return Sunny's hat, but Sunny keeps moving ahead every time he approaches him, eventually leading him back to So and Sue's house. Seeing Sunny's hat in his hands, they ask where he found it. When Ash explains that Sunny asked him to retrieve it, So accuses him of lying, while Sue breaks down in tears.

Inside the house, Ash learns that Sunny is actually So and Sue's son, who got very sick a year earlier and died as a result, explaining why he had refused to shake Ash's hand or eat anything. He had loved to play with the forest Pokémon every day and dreamed of becoming a Pokémon Trainer once he grew up. Ever since losing him, So has only been able to paint the skies that his son loved to watch. Ash points out the painting that Sunny had named as his favorite, which Sue reveals to be from one of the rare times when the entire family had been together at the same time. Losing Sunny had taught her that the comforts of life that she had taken for granted will not be around forever, so now she always remembers to thank each of them for being there. Once Ash leaves the house, So decides to start painting more than just skies now, wanting to also immortalize the forests and the Pokémon that Sunny had loved.

While making his way through the forest, Ash encounters Sunny once more. Remembering that Sunny never got to touch a Pokémon, he offers him a chance to touch Pikachu. Sunny tries to do so, but his [[Ghosts in the Pokémon world|ghostly]] hand just phases through Pikachu. Ash knows what to do, so he embraces Sunny and has him bring his hand on top of his, using his [[Aura]] to transfer the sensation of touching Pikachu into Sunny, who finds the experience just as comforting as Ash had described. When Ash opens his eyes again, Sunny has disappeared. Leaving the forest through another tunnel under a big tree, Ash sees a sky that looks exactly like Sunny's favorite sky. Remembering Sue's words, he takes a moment to thank Pikachu for being there.

Arriving in Tonari Town at dusk, Ash is disappointed to learn from Delia that his father has already left due to an emergency, although he did leave him a present in the form of a new hat. Delia makes Ash some {{wp|croquette}}s to satisfy his hunger, even offering some to a disguised and starving Team Rocket in the next table over. While eating, Ash finds himself crying, though he's not sure why he's feeling sad.

The next day, Ash prepares to head out once more, [[M20|having heard]] that an {{p|Entei}} has been spotted nearby, and everyone is trying to find and catch it. Delia manages to feed him a mouthful of toast before he runs off, pursued by Team Rocket, who take a moment to thank Delia for the croquettes before resuming their endless pursuit. Dashing through the woods, Ash enters a wide open field, continuing his journey under the distant blue sky.

==Trivia==
[[File:JNS05 Title Card JP.png|thumb|250px|Japanese title card]]
[[File:JNS05 Title Card.png|thumb|250px|English title card]]
* This special ties into the alternate continuity from ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]'', and ''[[M23|Secrets of the Jungle]]''.<ref>https://youtu.be/IdZPeSiiVxE?si=5mIzud7RXKCaLDfN&t=1015</ref>
* This is one of the few episodes storyboarded by the original executive director [[Kunihiko Yuyama]].
* [[Shinji Miyazaki]]'s music from ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'', ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'', and ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' is reused as background music in this special.
* This episode does not have a title card segment, with the episode title instead appearing as part of the logo at the end of the episode.
** The English dub instead displays only the Pokémon logo, with the episode title appearing only in episode listings and television programming guides.
* A {{p|Mankey}} stealing a hat from {{OBP|Sunny|JNS05}} and {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}} is a reference to {{Ash}} getting his hat stolen from a {{AP|Mankey|Primeape}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]''.
** Ash also mentions this event with Mankey during the episode, which means that part of the events in said episode also happened in this timeline.
** Ash receives a new {{AP|hat}} from {{Delia}} at the end of this special, which is the same Pokémon League Expo hat that Ash wore in the [[original series]].
* This is the fourth time that Ash's father has been mentioned in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* [[Unshō Ishizuka]] was added into the credits for this episode, with archived audio of his voice being used for the [[narrator]].
* [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]] is the only Pokémon introduced after [[Generation I]] to be featured in this special.
* This is the last episode where [[Carter Cathcart]] is the script adapter and a voice actor for the English [[dub]], as he opted to retire from the anime following his diagnosis of cancer.
* In the English dub, this episode was aired after ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]'', as the season finale of [[S25|Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series]].
** Similarly, the [[XYS05|season finale]] of [[S19|Pokémon the Series: XYZ]] was also a special episode. However, this is the first special episode included as part of a dub [[season]] to not be counted by the official websites, rental DVD releases, or video-on-demand streaming services as an episode of the main series in the original Japanese version.
** It is also counted as the 12th and final episode of the ''Pokémon: To Be a Pokémon Master'' arc in the dub, even though it was released separately from the aforementioned story arc in the original Japanese version.

===Errors===
* In the English dub:
** The closed captions incorrectly identify {{p|Goldeen}}'s [[cry]] as "good evening" instead of "Goldeen".
** The credits erroneously credit 篠原隆 ''Takashi Shinohara'' as one of the animation directors instead of 岩根雅明 ''[[Masaaki Iwane]]''.
** [[With You]] is credited as the opening theme, even though the episode has no opening or closing themes.
** The Netflix listings omit the exclamation mark in the episode title.

===Dub edits===
* Delia refers to [[Tonari Town]] as "the town next to the one you're in now", not revealing a dub name for the location.
