[[File:Johto Route 36 GS.png|thumb|Route 36 in Gold and Silver]]
'''Route 36''' (Japanese: '''３６ばんどうろ''' ''Route 36'') is route in central [[Johto]] connecting {{rt|37|Johto}}, [[Violet City]], and [[National Park]]. The northern entrance to the [[Ruins of Alph]] is located at eastern end of the route. The route also contains a shortcut to {{rt|35|Johto}}.

==Route description==
===Ecruteak–Violet===
Heading south from Ecruteak, Route 36 is split in half by a series of trees. The western half proceeds south, passing a Trainer duo before merging with the eastern half southwest of a grass patch that blankets the southern portion of the eastern half. Now one route, Route 36 continues south, turning to the east and becoming extremely narrow as it meets the Route 35 connector path. At this junction, Trainers have encountered {{p|Sudowoodo}} several times, using a {{key|IV|SquirtBottle}} to move the Pokémon. In the games, the SquirtBottle can only be obtained after the player has obtained the [[Plain Badge]].

East of the junction, a man will give away the move {{m|Rock Smash}} in the form of [[TM08]] in [[Generation II]] or [[HM06]] in [[Generation IV]], however in Generation II the Sudowoodo must first be cleared. To his northeast on Thursdays, [[Week Siblings|Arthur of the Week Siblings]] will give Trainers a [[Hard Stone]] the first time they meet him, and a {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Careless Ribbon}} the second time and all others (Generation IV only). South of this point is the north entrance to the Ruins of Alph, which also has an entrance on {{rt|32|Johto}}.

The route continues due east before turning south as it arrives in the west side of Violet.

===Route 35 Connector===
This path is an extension of Route 36 that links Route 36 to Route 35 and the National Park. Heading south from its northern terminus at the "Sudowoodo Junction," the route curves west, passing {{tc|Schoolboy}} Alan and a grass patch before arriving at a T-intersection. To the north is another Trainer, an [[Ice Berry]] tree, and the east entrance to the National Park. To the south is Route 35 (however, without {{m|Cut}}, this path is a dead end).

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Route 36 briefly appeared in ''[[PS453|All About Arceus II]]'', where {{adv|Gold}} and [[Bugsy]] traveled through the route while pursuing {{adv|Arceus}}, eventually leading them to the Ruins of Alph.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
[[File:Johto Route 36 C.png|thumb|Route 36 in Crystal]]
* In {{game|Crystal}}, a small patch of grass was added to the route in the area north of the entrance to the Ruins of Alph, allowing the player to catch the Pokémon of this route on their first visit to Violet City. The levels of the wild Pokémon were adjusted for this earlier availability. This patch of grass is absent in Gold, Silver and their remakes.

===Long grass===
[[File:Long grass.png|thumb|200px|Long grass on Route 119]]
'''Long grass''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|長|なが}}い{{tt|草|くさ}}むら''' ''long grass'') is a type of tall grass that is taller than usual. These patches of grass have grown longer than the usual grass patches, containing different species of Pokémon. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was impossible to ride a [[bicycle]] through this type of grass (and impossible to run through it in [[Generation III]]). Some Trainers hide in the long grass patches, concealing themselves from view and surprising the player to a battle. Long grass was introduced in [[Generation II]]. In [[Johto]], it appears in [[National Park]] and {{rt|47|Johto}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}; in [[Hoenn]], it appears on {{rt|119|Hoenn}}, {{rt|120|Hoenn}}, {{rt|121|Hoenn}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}, and the [[Hoenn Safari Zone]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}; in [[Sinnoh]], it appears on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}} and {{rt|214|Sinnoh}}; in [[Unova]], it appears on {{rt|7|Unova}}; in [[Kalos]], it appears on {{rt|6|Kalos}} and {{rt|16|Kalos}}; and it also appears in [[Faraway Island]]{{sup/3|E}}.

In [[Generation V]], long grass can be normal or dark, and behaves just like standard grass: normal long grass can [[Phenomenon#Rustling grass|rustle]], while dark long grass may cause double wild encounters to occur.

===Seaweed===
[[File:Dive III OW.png|thumb|200px|Patch of seaweed]]
'''Seaweed''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|海草|かいそう}}''' ''sea grass'') is located [[underwater]] in [[Hoenn]] as an underwater equivalent to tall grass on land. In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, seaweed can be found underwater on [[Route]]s {{rtn|124|Hoenn}} and {{rtn|126|Hoenn}}. In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, it appears underwater on [[Route]]s {{rtn|107|Hoenn}}, {{rtn|124|Hoenn}}, {{rtn|126|Hoenn}}, {{rtn|128|Hoenn}}, {{rtn|129|Hoenn}}, and {{rtn|130|Hoenn}}. The chance of encountering Pokémon in seaweed is lower than that of tall grass.

===Dark grass===
'''Dark tall grass''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|濃|こ}}い{{tt|色|いろ}}の{{tt|草|くさ}}むら''' ''dark tall grass'') is exclusive to [[Generation V]]. In dark grass, not only are Pokémon found usually at much higher levels than those in regular grass, but there is a chance of encountering two wild Pokémon at a time, in a [[Double Battle]]. Pokémon encountered in dark grass are often similar to those found in normal grass areas of the route, but not identical (in particular, Pokémon encountered in dark grass may be slightly [[catch rate|more difficult to catch]]). Often, Pokémon which are rare in normal grass are more common in dark grass.

Patches of dark grass are typically separated from patches of normal grass. Dark grass does not rustle. There is also long dark grass, which behaves like both types of grass simultaneously.

===Rustling grass===
{{main|Phenomenon#Rustling grass|Phenomenon}}
'''Rustling grass''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|揺|ゆ}}れる{{tt|草|くさ}}むら''' ''rustling tall grass'') is found in [[Generation V]], in virtually any area with patches of tall grass. Occasionally, a patch of grass can be seen shaking. Entering such a patch triggers a battle with a wild Pokémon. The Pokémon found in rustling grass differ from route to route, but all areas (except Route 19) contain {{p|Audino}}. In most areas, it is possible to encounter in rustling grass the evolved forms of Pokémon found in regular grass. Regular tall grass has a chance to start rustling for every step the player takes. Rustling grass will stop shaking if the player enters a battle, or if they leave the area (even if that specific grass patch remains on the screen). Dark grass does not rustle.

===Flowers===
'''Flowers''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|花畑|はなばた}}''' ''flower bed'') are a kind of overworld tile introduced in [[Generation VI]] that function like tall grass. Flowers may be found on Routes {{rtn|4|Kalos}}, {{rtn|7|Kalos}}, {{rtn|8|Kalos}}, {{rtn|10|Kalos}}, {{rtn|12|Kalos}}, {{rtn|15|Kalos}}, {{rtn|16|Kalos}}, {{rtn|18|Kalos}}, {{rtn|19|Kalos}}, {{rtn|20|Kalos}}, {{rtn|21|Kalos}}, and {{rtn|22|Kalos}}, along with the [[Pokémon Village]], and can be yellow, red, or purple. The Pokémon that can be found in one color of flowers may be different than those found in another color or in tall grass; especially with {{p|Flabébé}} (whose flower generally matches which patch it is found in).

{{incomplete|needs=Additional information on the Generation VII species}}
[[File:Cherrim Sunshine Form anime.png|thumb|{{p|Cherrim}} changing between forms in the anime]]
Some Pokémon have official major [[Variant Pokémon|variations]] between individuals, known as '''forms''' (Japanese: '''すがた''' ''form''). These variations all have differing sprites in the games and are recognized by the "forms" section of the [[Pokédex]].

Starting in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, every official different form has a name given by the [[Pokédex]], but {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Genesect}}, and {{p|Furfrou}}'s alternate forms were not registered in the Pokédex prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. From Generation II to IV, whichever sprite is seen first will be the one displayed in the Pokédex by default; e.g., if West Sea {{p|Shellos}} was encountered first its sprite will appear in the Pokédex by default, whereas if East Sea Shellos was encountered first its sprite will. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the sprite displayed in the Pokédex can be changed after interacting with [[Cedric Juniper]] in [[Mistralton City]], even to a {{Shiny}} sprite, if it has been encountered. This option is automatically applied in {{game|Black 2 and White 2|s}}. In Generation VI onwards, the sprite can be changed as long as the player has owned the Pokémon.

At times, these differences are purely cosmetic and have no bearing on the difference in the Pokémon's stats from another; however, several Pokémon differ in stats (other than HP), [[type]], and [[Ability]] depending on their form. Among these are several {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], whose unique forms can be changed between at will and are usually spelled as '''Formes''' (Japanese: '''フォルム''' ''Forme'').

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], [[regional variant]] Pokémon were introduced. The species of Pokémon that adapted to the environment of [[Alola]] are called Alola Forms, and have different appearances, types and abilities to Pokémon of the same species found elsewhere.

==Pokémon with multiple forms==
===Pikachu===
====Cosplay Pikachu====
{{main|Cosplay Pikachu}}
Cosplay {{p|Pikachu}} is a unique female Pikachu who has a black heart-shaped mark near the end of its tail. This unique Pikachu is able to be dressed up into different costumes corresponding to each of the five [[Contest condition|conditions]] ({{OBP|Cool|condition|Coolness}}, {{OBP|Beautiful|condition|Beauty}}, {{OBP|Cute|condition|Cuteness}}, {{OBP|Clever|condition|Cleverness}}, and {{OBP|Tough|condition|Toughness}}) and learn an exclusive [[move]] associated with that condition. Cosplay Pikachu can switch costumes anytime at any [[Contest Hall]]. It will lose the move it had with the last costume (if it still knows it), and gain the move from the new costume. If Cosplay Pikachu removes its costume while the only move it knows is the move tied to its costume, it learns {{m|Thunder Shock}}.

Unlike other Pikachu, it cannot [[Evolution|evolve]] or [[Pokémon breeding|breed]]. Additionally, Cosplay Pikachu cannot be deposited into [[Pokémon Bank]]; instead, it can only be traded between copies of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. Cosplay Pikachu is not present in any other games.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} (the only games it appears in), after the player takes part in their first {{pkmn|Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectacular}}, a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} will give the player Cosplay Pikachu.

====Pikachu in a cap====
{{main|Ash's Pikachu#Pikachu in a cap|Ash's Pikachu → Pikachu in a cap}}
These cap-wearing Pikachu are {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive Pokémon that debuted in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], and are being distributed in celebration of the [[Pokémon anime]]'s [[M20|20th movie]], and by extension, the anime's 20th anniversary. Like [[Ash's Pikachu]], these Pikachu are always [[gender|male]] and cannot [[evolution|evolve]] or {{pkmn|breeding|breed}}. They also have access to the exclusive [[Z-Crystal]], {{DL|Z-Crystal|Pikashunium Z}}, and its [[Z-Move]], {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}}.

Six variants exist in Sun and Moon, one for each of [[Ash's hat]]s between the anime's [[original series]] and its {{series|Sun & Moon}}. A seventh variant debuts in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], wearing the (Japanese: キミにきめたキャップ ''I Choose You Cap''), Ash's hat from the [[M20|20th movie]].

|}

===Pichu===
{{main|Spiky-eared Pichu}}
Spiky-eared {{p|Pichu}} is a unique female Pichu who has a tuft of hair on the end of its left ear. Spiky-eared Pichu's [[Pokéathlon]] [[performance]] stats are different than a normal Pichu's. She cannot [[Evolution|evolve]] or be [[trade]]d, and she cannot be [[Poké Transfer|transferred]] to the [[Generation V]] games.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} (the only games it appears in), if the player takes a {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Pikachu-colored Pichu}} to the [[Ilex Forest]], Spiky-eared Pichu will join the player.

| Spiky-eared [[File:Spiky-eared Pichu DP 1.png|96px]] {{typecolor|Electric}}
|}

===Unown===
{{p|Unown}} has many forms, each corresponding to a typographical character. It was the first Pokémon to have multiple forms in the games. From its debut in [[Generation II]], there are 26 forms of Unown, each corresponding to each of the twenty-six letters of the {{wp|Latin alphabet}}. Starting in the [[Generation III]] games, Unown has two additional forms, corresponding to the {{wp|question mark}} and {{wp|exclamation mark}}. These forms are not interchangeable.

In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there is a special [[Unown Mode]], an upgrade to the Pokédex that was developed by the researchers at the [[Ruins of Alph]] to record the different forms of Unown, which is available after the player has caught several Unown. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there is the [[Unown Report]], which is obtainable after the player completes the first tile puzzle in the [[Ruins of Alph]].

In the Generation II games, Unown's form is determined by its {{IV}}s, which results in some strange phenomena; for example, in Generation II, only Unown I and V can be {{Shiny}} due to Shiniess also being determined by IVs in these games. In the [[Generation III]] games, Unown's form is determined by its [[personality value]]. From the Generation IV games onward, an independent value determines the Pokémon form.

Though the form has no bearing on [[base stats]], punctuation Unown have different [[performance]] stats to alphabetical Unown.

===Castform===
{{p|Castform}} has four different forms, which its [[Ability]] {{a|Forecast}} causes it to change between in different types of [[weather]]. It is the first Pokémon to have interchangeable forms in battle in the games.

Normally, Castform is {{type|Normal}} and has a plain appearance with a gray body. It takes on this form in clear weather, in any weather without a specific form, and if the weather has its effects negated by {{a|Cloud Nine}} or {{a|Air Lock}}.

In [[harsh sunlight]], Forecast changes Castform to its Sunny Form, which is {{type|Fire}} and resembles the sun. In [[rain]], Forecast changes Castform to its Rainy Form, which is {{type|Water}} and resembles a raindrop. In {{weather|hail}}, Forecast changes Castform to its Snowy Form, which is {{type|Ice}} and resembles a snowy cloud. Castform reverts to its normal form when [[Recall|withdrawn]] from battle.

In Generation III and IV, if Castform's Ability {{a|Forecast}} is suppressed or replaced, Castform will remain in its current form (regardless of the weather). In Generation V onward, if Castform's Ability {{a|Forecast}} is suppressed or replaced, Castform will revert to its normal form (regardless of the weather).

Castform's [[stats]] do not change between any of these forms.

===Deoxys===
{{p|Deoxys}} has four different forms which it can switch between. It was the first Pokémon whose [[base stats]] and [[move]] compatibility differed depending on its form.

In the [[Generation III]] games, Deoxys's forms are game-specific, such that it will always be in one particular form while in the player's possession (although it will be in Normal Forme in the wild).
*In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{g|Colosseum}} and {{XD}}, it will be in Normal Forme.
*In {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed|s}}, it will be in Attack Forme.
*In {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, it will be in Defense Forme.
*In {{game|Emerald}}, it will be in Speed Forme.

From Generation IV onward, the player can switch between its forms using meteorites found in the game.
*In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, using meteorites outside in [[Veilstone City]].
*In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, using meteorites outside on {{rt|3|Kanto}}.
*In {{4v|Black|White|2}}, using meteorites in the {{DL|Nacrene City|Nacrene Museum}} in [[Nacrene City]].
*In {{g|X and Y}}, using meteorites in the {{DL|Ambrette Town|Fossil Lab}} in [[Ambrette Town]].
*In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, using the meteorite in [[Professor Cozmo]]'s house in [[Fallarbor Town]].
* In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, using the meteorite next to [[Sophocles]] in the [[Hokulani Observatory]] in [[Mount Hokulani]].

Deoxys's Normal Forme is the default form it takes, as well as the form it appears in in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. In this form, its stats are more balanced, though it is notably far more offensive than it is defensive.

Deoxys's Attack Forme has higher {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} than its other forms (being the non-Mega Evolved Pokémon with the highest Attack and Special Attack) and learns more offensive moves. Its {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} are abysmal, much lower than its Normal Form. Its {{stat|Speed}} remains the same as its Normal Forme.

Deoxys's Defense Forme has much higher {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} than its other forms and learns more defensive moves. Its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} are much lower than its Normal Forme, and its {{stat|Speed}} is also significantly lower than its Normal Forme.

Deoxys's Speed Forme has much higher {{stat|Speed}} than its other forms (being the Pokémon with the highest Speed) and learns many increased [[priority]] moves.

Deoxys has the same {{stat|HP}} stat in all of its forms.

===Burmy and Wormadam{{anchor|Burmy}}{{anchor|Wormadam}}===
Both {{p|Burmy}} and its female evolution, {{p|Wormadam}}, have three separate forms. Burmy can change form freely, changing its cloak depending on the environment in which it last participated in a battle (so [[Exp. Share]] alone will not change its form). Wormadam cannot change form; when a Burmy evolves into Wormadam, it retains its cloak.

Apart from {{pkmn|breeding}} and [[evolution]], Burmy's cloak is purely cosmetic; conversely, different cloaks of Wormadam have different [[type]]s, stats and learnsets. Bred Burmy will have the same cloak as the mother, will be in the same cloak as a Burmy or Wormadam bred with Ditto, or will be in Plant Cloak if bred from a {{p|Mothim}} and a {{p|Ditto}}.

If a Burmy last battled in a grassy area or water, it changes into its Plant Cloak. If female, Plant Cloak Burmy will evolve into Plant Cloak Wormadam, which is a {{2t|Bug|Grass}} Pokémon. This cloak is composed of leaves and twigs.

If a Burmy last battled in a sandy or rocky area, it changes into its Sandy Cloak. If female, Sandy Cloak Burmy will evolve into Sandy Cloak Wormadam, which is a {{2t|Bug|Ground}} Pokémon. This cloak is composed of sand and rocks.

If a Burmy last battled in a building or urban area, it changes into its Trash Cloak. If female, Trash Cloak Burmy will evolve into Trash Cloak Wormadam, which is a {{2t|Bug|Steel}} Pokémon. This cloak is composed of pink {{wp|building insulation|insulation}}.

===Cherrim===
{{p|Cherrim}} changes form depending on the [[weather]]. During [[harsh sunlight]], it changes into Sunshine Form; otherwise, it is in its Overcast Form. Due to its Ability {{a|Flower Gift}}, its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} will also increase in its Sunshine Form.

In Generation IV, Cherrim changes form independently of its Ability. Starting in Generation V, it is Cherrim's Ability that changes its form.

In Japanese, the names of Cherrim's forms use 「フォルム」 ''form'', the term otherwise only used in the names of forms localized as Forme in English.

===Shellos and Gastrodon{{anchor|Shellos}}{{anchor|Gastrodon}}===
{{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}} differ in appearance depending on where they were caught. This is purely a cosmetic change, and these Pokémon cannot change between forms.

In [[Sinnoh]], West Sea Shellos and Gastrodon are encountered west of [[Mt. Coronet]], and are pink in color; East Sea Shellos and Gastrodon are encountered east of Mt. Coronet, and are blue in color. There is also a slight difference in bodily appearance depending on the form.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Shellos are the same form as their mother, or the same form as the Shellos or Gastrodon parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

===Rotom===
{{redirect|Heat|the Badge given by [[Flannery]]|Badge#Heat Badge|Badge → Heat Badge}}
[[File:Rotom parts.png|thumb|Rotom and the appliances]]
{{p|Rotom}} has five alternate forms it can change between, in addition to its normal form. To take on these alternate forms, Rotom possesses a different {{wp|household appliance}}, and each has its own special [[move]]. These alternate forms were introduced in {{game|Platinum}}.

*Normal Rotom, which has not possessed an appliance, is {{2t|Electric|Ghost}}
*Heat Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|microwave oven}}, knows {{m|Overheat}} and is {{2t|Electric|Fire}}
*Wash Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|washing machine}}, knows {{m|Hydro Pump}} and is {{2t|Electric|Water}}
*Frost Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|refrigerator}}, knows {{m|Blizzard}} and is {{2t|Electric|Ice}}
*Fan Rotom, which has possessed an {{wp|mechanical fan|electric fan}}, knows {{m|Air Slash}} and is {{2t|Electric|Flying}}
*Mow Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|lawn mower|lawnmower}}, knows {{m|Leaf Storm}} and is {{2t|Electric|Grass}}

In [[Generation IV]], all forms of Rotom are {{2t|Electric|Ghost}}-type; from Generation V onward, the appliance forms replace the Ghost type with the type of their associated move. All appliance forms have the same base stats, with a higher total than that of normal Rotom; the only base stat of normal Rotom that is higher than its appliance forms is its Speed.

*In Pokémon Platinum, the appliances are located in [[Rotom's Room]] in the [[Team Galactic Eterna Building]], which can only be accessed by using the {{key|IV|Secret Key}}.
*In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the appliances are located in [[Rotom's Room]] in [[Silph Co.]], which can be accessed when entering the broken elevator with Rotom as the [[walking Pokémon]].
*In {{4v|Black|White|2}}, the appliances are located in boxes in the basement of [[Shopping Mall Nine]].
*In {{g|X and Y}}, the appliances are located in boxes on the second floor of the Sycamore Pokémon Lab in [[Lumiose City]].
*In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the appliances are located in boxes in [[Professor Birch]]'s lab in [[Littleroot Town]].
*In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, the appliances are located in boxes in [[Professor Kukui]]'s lab in [[Alola Route 1|Hau'oli Outskirts]].
Using these locations, Rotom can also return the appliance to change back to normal form.

Upon changing from an appliance form, it will forget the special move associated with that appliance form. Upon changing into an appliance form, it will learn the special move associated with the form. When changing form, if Rotom knows four moves but not the special move of its previous form, the player will be prompted to replace a move with the new exclusive move (Rotom cannot change to an appliance form unless it does). If Rotom's only known move is its special move and it changes to its normal form, then the Rotom will learn {{m|Thunder Shock}}. In [[Generation IV]] and {{gen|V}}, if Rotom forgets the move that is tied to its appliance form, it changes back into its normal form; in Generation VI, Rotom can remain in an appliance form even if it forgets the associated special move.

[[Pokémon Egg|Hatched]] Rotom are always in normal form.

In [[Generation IV]], Rotom changes back to its normal form when taken into the [[Union Room]] or [[Wi-Fi Club]], or when deposited in the {{pkmn|Day Care}}.

Rotom's appliance forms first appeared as silhouettes in August 2008, shortly before the Japanese release of {{game|Platinum}}, with a statement that indicated that these Pokémon would be in the game. Days before the game's release, it was revealed that these Pokémon were the alternate forms of Rotom. These new forms made their debut in Pokémon Platinum, and have been included in every [[core series]] game since.

===Giratina===
{{p|Giratina}} has two forms it can change between. The Origin Forme was introduced in {{game|Platinum}}.

In the [[Pokémon world]], it is normally in its Altered Forme, which is a winged hexapod; in the [[Distortion World]] or while holding a {{DL|Timespace orbs|Griseous Orb}}, it is in its Origin Forme, which is serpentine with six appendages.

The two forms have different stats and Abilities; the Origin Forme is more offense-oriented, while the Altered Forme is more defense-oriented.

===Shaymin===
{{p|Shaymin}} has two forms it can change between. The Sky Forme was introduced in {{game|Platinum}}.

Normally, Shaymin is in its Land Forme, which is {{type|Grass}} and resembles a hedgehog. When exposed to a [[Gracidea]], Shaymin transforms into its Sky Forme, which is {{2t|Grass|Flying}}-type and white in color; however, Shaymin's Sky Forme will change back into its Land Forme at night, while {{status|frozen}}, when deposited into the [[PC]] (prior to Generation VII), when withdrawn from the PC (Generation VII), when deposited into [[Pokémon Bank]], or when deposited in the [[Pokémon Day Care]]/[[Pokémon Nursery]].

The two forms have different stats, {{Abilities}}, [[type]]s, learnsets, and [[cry|cries]].

===Arceus===
{{p|Arceus}} has eighteen different type form variations, which correspond to the eighteen different [[type]]s.

Arceus's type depends on its held [[Plate]] or type-specific [[Z-Crystal]], becoming the same type as the type that Plate enhances or the Z-Crystal corresponds to, remaining {{type|Normal}} when not holding a Plate or Z-Crystal.

While its base stats remain constant despite its changing type, its [[Pokéathlon]] performance differs. Additionally, it can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}} only while holding the [[Draco Plate]].

In the [[Generation IV]] games, there is unused data and a sprite programmed for a {{type|???}} {{p|Arceus}}, but it cannot be obtained in the games as there is no ???-type Plate. This data no longer exists in [[Generation V]] due to the removal of the ??? type.

Prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Arceus's alternate forms are not registered in the [[Pokédex]].

===Basculin===
{{p|Basculin}} has two different forms, the Red-Striped Form and the Blue-Striped Form. The Red-Striped Form has a red stripe with wide eyes and spiky fins; the Blue-Striped Form has a blue stripe with squinted eyes and smooth fins. These forms are non-interchangeable.

*In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black}} and {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2}}, red-striped Basculin can be encountered normally, while blue-striped Basculin can only be encountered by {{m|surf}}ing on or [[fishing]] in [[Phenomenon|rippling water]].
*In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon White}} and {{game|Black and White|s 2|White 2}}, blue-striped Basculin can be encountered normally, while red-striped Basculin can only be encountered by surfing on or fishing in rippling water.
*In {{pkmn|X and Y|Pokémon X}}, blue-striped Basculin can only be encountered using a {{DL|Fishing|Good Rod}} while red-striped Basculin can only be encountered using a {{DL|Fishing|Super Rod}}. This order is reversed in {{pkmn|X and Y|Pokémon Y}}, with red-striped Basculin requiring a Good Rod and blue-striped Basculin requiring a Super Rod. {{rt|21|Kalos}} is the exception, where only red-striped Basculin can be caught with either rod.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Basculin are the same form as their mother, or the same form as the Basculin parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

Wild red-striped Basculin have a 5% chance of holding a [[Deep Sea Tooth]] while wild blue-striped Basculin have a 5% chance of holding a [[Deep Sea Scale]].

In Pokémon Black and White, blue-striped Basculin have the same two standard possible Abilities as red-striped Basculin—{{a|Reckless}} and {{a|Adaptability}} (and are listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D]]); however, the blue-striped Basculin that can be obtained via in-game trade in Pokémon White has the Ability {{a|Rock Head}}. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, wild blue-striped Basculin's two standard possible Abilities are {{a|Rock Head}} and {{a|Adaptability}}, while red-striped Basculin's stay the same (and are listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D Pro]]); however, blue-striped Basculin [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 have Reckless and Adaptability as their two standard Abilities. When a blue-striped Basculin with Reckless is transferred from [[Generation V]] to [[Generation VI]], its Ability is changed to Rock Head.

===Darmanitan===
If {{p|Darmanitan}} has {{a|Zen Mode}} as its Ability, it changes from Standard Mode into Zen Mode when its HP drops to below half in battle. It can only remain in Zen Mode in battle.

Standard Mode Darmanitan is {{type|Fire}} and red in color. Zen Mode Darmanitan is {{2t|Fire|Psychic}}-type and blue in color.

The two forms have different stats, such that Zen Mode Darmanitan swaps the Attack and Special Attack of Standard Mode, and has higher defenses but lower Speed.

===Deerling and Sawsbuck{{anchor|Deerling}}{{anchor|Sawsbuck}}===
{{p|Deerling}} and {{p|Sawsbuck}} have four different interchangeable forms, each corresponding to a [[seasons|season]]. These forms are purely cosmetic.

In the [[Generation V]] games, Deerling and Sawsbuck will only change their form to match the current season if they are in the player's [[party]] when: the player steps outside from a [[cave]] or building such that the season changes, the player receives an {{pkmn|Egg}} from the [[Pokémon Day Care|Day-Care]] Man, or a saved game is loaded. All wild, [[Pokémon breeding|bred]], or NPC Trainer-owned Deerling and Sawsbuck will match the current season, with the exception of Trainers in the [[Battle Subway]] and the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] where these Pokémon are always in Spring Form.

In [[Generation VI]], all wild and NPC Trainer-owned Deerling and Sawsbuck appear in Spring Form. Because seasons have been abandoned as a mechanic, Deerling and Sawsbuck do not change appearance, and their Summer, Autumn, and Winter forms must be [[Poké Transporter|transferred]] from a [[Generation V]] game. Bred Deerling are the same form as their mother, or the same form as the Deerling or Sawsbuck parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

===Forces of Nature{{anchor|Tornadus}}{{anchor|Thundurus}}{{anchor|Landorus}}===
The [[Forces of Nature]]—{{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}—have two interchangeable forms each.

Normally, they are in their Incarnate Forme. When exposed to a [[Reveal Glass]], they change into their Therian Forme. Their Therian Formes were introduced in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]].

The two forms have different stats, {{Abilities}}, and [[cry|cries]]. Even if they have their Hidden Ability, in Therian Forme each Pokémon only has one possible Ability.

In the [[Generation V]] games, they cannot be traded while in their Therian Forme.

|}

===Kyurem===
{{p|Kyurem}}, in addition to its normal form, has two other forms: White Kyurem and Black Kyurem. They are the [[game mascot]]s of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], which they were introduced in.

In the games, Kyurem changes its form through the use of the [[DNA Splicers]], which fuses it with {{p|Reshiram}} or {{p|Zekrom}}. The combination retains Kyurem's Poké Ball and [[held item]]. This fusion is reversible, with Reshiram or Zekrom remaining unaltered from before being fused, including whatever item it may have been holding. The DNA Splicers can only fuse one Kyurem at a time. White Kyurem and Black Kyurem cannot be deposited into [[Pokémon Bank]], nor can they be [[trade]]d.

White Kyurem has the Ability {{a|Turboblaze}}, learns the moves {{m|Fusion Flare}} and {{m|Ice Burn}}, and its cry is a combination of normal Kyurem and Reshiram's cries.

Black Kyurem has the Ability {{a|Teravolt}}, learns the moves {{m|Fusion Bolt}} and {{m|Freeze Shock}}, and its cry is a combination of normal Kyurem and Zekrom's cries.

===Keldeo===
{{p|Keldeo}} has two interchangeable forms: Ordinary Form and Resolute Form. These forms are mostly cosmetic. The Resolute Form was introduced in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]].

If Keldeo is taught {{m|Secret Sword}} from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 onward, it will change into Resolute Form. If it forgets Secret Sword, it returns to Ordinary Form. Keldeo taught Secret Sword in {{game|Black and White|s}} remain in Ordinary Form in other games.

===Meloetta===
{{p|Meloetta}} has two interchangeable forms: Aria Forme and Pirouette Forme. Aria Forme is {{2t|Normal|Psychic}}. Pirouette Forme is {{2t|Normal|Fighting}}.

Normally, it is in Aria Forme, which is the only form it can take outside of battle. If Meloetta uses the move {{m|Relic Song}} in battle, it changes between the two forms. It reverts to Aria Forme if withdrawn.

===Genesect===
In the games, {{p|Genesect}} changes forms when a [[Drive]] is attached to its back. These forms have no direct effect, although they do change the type of Genesect's [[signature move]] {{m|Techno Blast}}.

*If no Drive is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Normal}} and Genesect will appear to have a dark yellow Drive.
*If a [[Shock Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Electric}} and Genesect will appear to have a light yellow Drive.
*If a [[Burn Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Fire}} and Genesect will appear to have a red Drive.
*If a [[Chill Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Ice}} and Genesect will appear to have an ice blue Drive.
*If a [[Douse Drive]] is held, Techno Blast will be {{type|Water}} and Genesect will appear to have a blue Drive.

Prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Genesect's alternate appearances are not registered in the [[Pokédex]].

===Greninja===

In the [[S19|''XY&Z'' arc]] of the {{pkmn|anime}}'s {{series|XY}}, [[Ash's Greninja]] gained the ability to transform into a stronger form known as "Ash-Greninja" through an occurrence known as the [[Bond Phenomenon]]. In the games, a {{p|Greninja}} with the Ability {{a|Battle Bond}} will transform into Ash-Greninja after it causes an opponent to [[fainting|faint]]. In this form, the move {{m|Water Shuriken}} will become more powerful and always hit 3 times. Greninja will stay in this form until the end of battle or it faints. A {{p|Greninja}} with Battle Bond can be transferred to [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] from the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version|Special Demo Version]].

Greninja with the Ability {{a|Battle Bond}} is always [[gender|male]] and cannot {{pkmn|breeding|breed}}.

===Vivillon===
{{p|Vivillon}} has 18 different distinct patterns depending on the set geographic location of the [[Nintendo 3DS]] system on which the {{p|Scatterbug}} was generated (for {{pkmn|Egg}}s, this means the game in which the Egg was created). This form cannot be changed. The pattern of Vivillon encountered within a game is set when the save file is created.

Bred {{p|Scatterbug}} will evolve into {{p|Vivillon}} with the same pattern as that of the breeding player's game, regardless of its parents.

The Poké Ball Pattern resembles a standard {{ball|Poké}}, and was first [[List of local event Pokémon distributions in Generation VI#Paris Poké Ball Pattern Vivillon|distributed]] in Paris, France to promote the temporary {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store}} store. The Fancy Pattern was [[GTS Fancy Pattern Vivillon|distributed]] via the [[Nintendo Network]] from July 8 to 31, 2014 to celebrate the GTS's 100 millionth Pokémon trade.

===Flabébé, Floette, and Florges{{anchor|Flabébé}}{{anchor|Floette}}{{anchor|Florges}}===
{{p|Flabébé}}, {{p|Floette}}, and {{p|Florges}} can hold five different-colored flowers: red, yellow, orange, blue, and white. The flower color is maintained through [[evolution]] and cannot be changed. In {{g|X and Y}}, if a Pokémon in this evolutionary family is encountered in a flower patch, the color of the flower it holds will depend on the color of that flower patch.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Flabébé have the same color flower as their mother, or the same form as the Flabébé, Floette, and Florges parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

Since only Blue Flower, Red Flower, and Yellow Flower Floette can appear in the [[Friend Safari]], only these forms of Flabébé, Floette and Florges can have their Hidden Ability {{a|Symbiosis}}.

[[File:AZ's Floette.png|thumb|200px|AZ's unique Floette]]
In the storyline of {{g|X and Y}}, there is also a unique Floette who [[AZ]] befriended 3,000 years ago. The flower it wields has a different design than normal, resembling the structure of the ancient [[ultimate weapon]] constructed by AZ; the flower also has a blue, red, and white color instead of green, yellow, and white, reflecting the colors of the {{wp|Flag of France|French tricolor}}. The [[Generation VI]] and {{gen|VII}} games include unused data for a trainable unique Floette. Unlike the other forms, it can learn the move {{m|Light of Ruin}}, and is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon able to do so]].

===Furfrou===
{{p|Furfrou}} can be groomed into one of ten different trims. These trims will only last five days after the {{player}} has groomed the Pokémon. They are also lost if the player deposits Furfrou at the [[Pokémon Day Care]] or, prior to [[Generation VII]], in the [[PC]].

Furfrou can be groomed at {{DL|Lumiose City|Friseur Furfrou}} in [[Lumiose City]], at the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Slateport City]] or by a {{tc|Punk Girl}} at [[Malie City]]'s salon. At these locations, grooming costs {{PDollar}}500. At Friseur Furfrou, the player cannot initially select from all of the trims, with trims being unlocked gradually as the player becomes more [[Lumiose City#Style|stylish]].

Prior to [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Furfrou's trims are not registered in the [[Pokédex]].

===Aegislash===
{{p|Aegislash}}, due to its Ability {{a|Stance Change}}, can change forms in battle depending on the move it uses. Initially in Shield Forme, using a damaging move will change it to Blade Forme, while using {{m|King's Shield}} will change it back into Shield Forme. Outside of battle it is always in Shield Forme.

Shield Forme Aegislash has high {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}, while Blade Forme Aegislash has high {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}}.

===Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist{{anchor|Pumpkaboo}}{{anchor|Gourgeist}}===
{{p|Pumpkaboo}} and {{p|Gourgeist}} can be of Small, Average, Large and Super Size. Larger sizes of Pumpkaboo are rarer to encounter in the wild.

Different sizes have different base stats. For Pumpkaboo, with each increase in size, its base HP stat increases by 5 points while its base Speed stat decreases by 5 points. For Gourgeist, with each increase in size, its base HP stat increases by 10 points and its base Attack stat increases by 5 points while its base Speed stat decreases by 15 points. Consequently, the base stat total of a Pumpkaboo or Gourgeist does not vary with size.

[[Pokémon breeding|Bred]] Pumpkaboo are the same size as their mother, or the same form as the Pumpkaboo or Gourgeist parent if bred with {{p|Ditto}}.

Wild Super Size Pumpkaboo will always hold a {{DL|Type-enhancing held item|Miracle Seed}}, whereas other sizes will never hold an item in the wild. Super Size variants have different, lower pitched cries than the other forms.

Only Average Size and Super Size Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist can have their Hidden Ability {{a|Insomnia}}. Average Size can be obtained with its Hidden Ability from the [[Friend Safari]]; Super Size could be obtained with its Hidden Ability from {{pkmn2|event}}s.

The different sizes of Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist do not use different menu sprites.

===Xerneas===
{{p|Xerneas}} has two forms: Neutral Mode and Active Mode. There is no gameplay difference between them; Xerneas appears in Active Mode in battle, and appears in Neutral Mode in situations outside of battle, such as cutscenes, the Pokédex, the [[Party|Pokémon]] screen, and [[Pokémon-Amie]]. According to the Pokédex, Xerneas shares everlasting life while it is in Active Mode.

Xerneas's horns and some highlights in its fur are light blue in Neutral Mode and light gold in Active Mode. In Active Mode, the protrusions on its horns as well as its back spots light up in several colors.

===Zygarde===
{{p|Zygarde}} has three different Formes, as well as two distinct constituent parts. The 50% Forme debuted in [[Pokémon X and Y]]. The other two Formes and both constituent parts debuted in the {{pkmn|anime}} during the ''{{DL|List of XY series episodes|XY&Z}}'' arc of the {{series|XY}}, and made their [[core series]] debut in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]].

A Zygarde Cell is a single cell of Zygarde. They can be found scattered throughout the region. They do not have thoughts or will, and can communicate with Zygarde Cores via telepathy. They are incapable of performing [[move]]s.

A Zygarde Core is a "brain" of Zygarde. They can communicate with Zygarde Cells and other Cores via telepathy. They take action when the region's ecosystem is threatened.

Zygarde 10% Forme is a Zygarde with 10% of its cells. It has razor-sharp teeth, and can reach speeds up to 60 mph (100 km/h). It can change into Complete Forme with its Ability {{a|Power Construct}}.

Zygarde 50% Forme is a Zygarde with 50% of its cells. It watches over and maintains the local ecosystem. It can change into Complete Forme with its Ability {{a|Power Construct}}.

In battle, a Zygarde with the {{a|Power Construct}} Ability will change into Complete Forme when its HP falls below half in a battle.

Zygarde Complete Forme is a Zygarde with 100% of its cells. Zygarde only takes on this form when the ecosystem is under threat and it believes Zygarde 50% Forme is unable to deal with it. Its power is said to exceed that of {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], the player can assemble Zygarde 10% Forme and Zygarde 50% Forme on {{rt|16|Alola}} on [[Ula'ula Island]] out of Zygarde Cores and Cells, which can be collected in the overworld after obtaining the [[Zygarde Cube]]. A 10% Forme Zygarde with the Aura Break Ability can be assembled with 10 Cells and Cores, a 50% Forme Zygarde with Aura Break can be assembled with 50 Cells and Cores, and a 50% Forme Zygarde with the Power Construct Ability can be assembled with 100 Cells and Cores. A Zygarde with Aura Break cannot change Formes, but a Zygarde with Power Construct can be changed between 10% and 50% Forme using the Zygarde Cube.

Multiple Zygarde can be assembled at this location as long as the player possess enough Cores and Cells. 5 Cores and 95 Cells can be found in the overworld, but the player can accrue additional ones by separating any Zygarde with the Aura Break Ability. A Zygarde separated into Cells will be lost forever, and any Zygarde assembled from those Cells will be treated as a completely new Zygarde. A Zygarde with the Power Construct Ability cannot be separated.

===Hoopa===
{{p|Hoopa}} has two Formes it can change between, using the [[Prison Bottle]] to temporarily change to its more powerful Forme.

Normally, Hoopa Confined is the Forme taken by Hoopa, which is {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}}. When exposed to a [[Prison Bottle]], Hoopa transforms into Hoopa Unbound, which is {{2t|Psychic|Dark}}. Hoopa Unbound was introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

Hoopa Unbound will change back into Hoopa Confined after three days have passed since using the Prison Bottle. It will also revert if it is deposited at the [[Pokémon Day Care]] or, prior to [[Generation VII]], in the [[PC]].

The two forms have different stats, [[type]]s, learnsets, and [[cry|cries]]. Unlike other Pokémon with form differences, Hoopa has more than one [[Pokémon category|category]].

===Oricorio===
{{p|Oricorio}} has four distinct styles. Depending on which island the player is on, the form that is encountered will be different. Baile Style is only found on [[Ula'ula Island]], Pom-Pom Style on [[Melemele Island]], Pa'u Style on [[Akala Island]], and Sensu Style on [[Poni Island]]. Oricorio can manually change forms by sipping the [[Nectar]] of certain flowers. Each of Oricorio's four styles has a different primary type; Oricorio's [[signature move]] {{m|Revelation Dance}} changes type to match the user's primary type.

The forms have different [[type]]s and [[cry|cries]].

Both Midday Form and Midnight Form can be caught in the wild in both Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon. Dusk Form will appear in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]; only special {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive Rockruff can evolve into Dusk Form Lycanroc.

'''Alto Mare''' (Japanese: '''アルトマーレ''' ''Altomare''), Italian for "high sea" and also known as the ''city of water'' (Japanese: 水の都), is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive town and the setting of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]''.

==In the anime==
Alto Mare is an isolated island south of [[Azalea Town]]. It is accessible via ferries near [[Cherrygrove City]]. It is a city of canals; a major mode of transport is by gondola.

The city is guarded by the {{pkmn2|legendary}} Eon Pokémon {{mov|Latias|Latias|5}} and {{mov|Latios|Latios|5}}. Many other species of Pokémon can be found in Alto Mare, including {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Yanma}}, {{p|Murkrow}}, {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Chinchou}} and {{p|Remoraid}}.
[[File:Alto Mare guardians.png|thumb|220px|right|The guardians of Alto Mare]]
The [[Tour de Alto Mare]], a water chariot race, is held annually. Trainers race on floating platforms pulled by their Pokémon. One year, the competition was won by {{an|Misty}} and her {{TP|Misty|Corsola}}. Winners are awarded a medal, depicting Latias and Latios.

It is also the site of Alto Mare Museum, where it exhibits the [[Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare]] (DMA). The fossil of pre-historic Pokémon, such as {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}} can also be seen in the museum's floor. [[Lorenzo]] and his granddaughter, {{mov|Bianca}}, are the caretakers of the museum.

The [[Secret Garden (location)|Secret Garden]], where Latias and Latios reside, is found near the museum. Located in a small pond is the [[Soul Dew]]. If removed, it can be used to control the DMA, but this will cause all the water to drain from the city. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the two Eon Pokémon to protect the Soul Dew.

[[File:Alto Mare gate Entei.png|thumb|200px|right|A gate featuring the image of Entei]]
* Alto Mare is the first movie-made city based on a real city outside Japan.
* The large numbers of Pidgey found in Alto Mare seems to be a reference to the pigeons of Venice.
* A gate in Alto Mare that Team Rocket tries to climb over features an image of Entei.
* Alto Mare contains a lot of Easter eggs, such as a gondola based on Lugia and some (mural) drawings that resemble Pokémon.
* A town similar in appearance to Alto Mare appears in the opening sequence of ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', along with Latios and Latias.

Headbutt tree

2015-12-08T18:19:56Z

Mastication clover:

{{incomplete|article|Generation IV mechanics}}
'''Headbutt trees''' are special trees found in the [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]] regions that a Pokémon can use {{m|Headbutt}} on to encounter [[wild Pokémon]]. They are only found in the games that contain Johto: {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

==Generation II==
[[File:Headbutt II OW.png|thumb|{{m|Headbutt}}ing a tree in [[Generation II]]]]
{{incomplete|section|Confirm that formulas/algorithms apply to both Gold/Silver and Crystal (and not only to one)}}
In [[Generation II]], most outdoor areas contain a number of special trees ([[File:GSC Headbutt.png]]) that Pokémon can use {{m|Headbutt}} on. These trees are distinct from other trees that either take up two vertical paces or that have rounded tops. When a Pokémon uses Headbutt on a tree, a wild Pokémon may drop out of the tree. Depending on the [[time]] of day, the Pokémon that falls out may be {{status|Sleep|asleep}}. Some Pokémon can only be caught by this method (e.g., {{p|Pineco}}, {{p|Heracross}}).

All headbuttable trees contain wild Pokémon, but different trees have different chances of creating an encounter after Headbutt is used. The headbuttable trees in an area also generate their encounters from different sets of Pokémon depending on whether they have moderate encounter chances or low encounter chances. For example, on {{rt|44|Johto}}, trees with moderate encounter chances may only contain {{p|Spearow}} or {{p|Aipom}}, while trees with a low encounter chance may also contain {{p|Heracross}}.

===Mechanics===
Every headbuttable tree can be associated with an index from 0 to 9. Depending on the player's [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID]], half of those indices correspond to trees with moderate encounter chances, while the other half correspond to trees with a low encounter chance.

A tree's index depends on its X and Y coordinates in the map; that is, its distance from, respectively, the westmost and and northmost edges.

:<code>''index'' = ( ( ''X'' * ''Y'' + ''X'' + ''Y'' ) / 5 ) [[wp:modulo operation|%]] 10</code>

To gain some insight into this formula, it is possible to "fix" one dimension and traverse the other, since ''X'' and ''Y'' are freely interchangeable. Substituting "Z" for one axis (the fixed axis) and "n" for the other (the axis that will be traversed), the formula becomes:
:<code>( ( ''Z'' * ''n'' + ''Z'' + ''n'' ) / 5 ) % 10</code>
which then becomes:
:<code>( ( (''Z'' + 1) * ''n'' + ''Z'' ) / 5 ) % 10</code>

This result shows that, if a single row or column of trees is traversed (i.e., if ''n'' changes), moving from one tree to the next changes the index (before the modulo operation) by <code>(''Z'' + 1) / 5</code>, where ''Z'' is the distance of that row or column from its origin edge (north or west). In short, the closer a row or column is to the edge (the smaller ''Z'' is), the slower the indices of those trees will change as the row or column is traversed.

The encounter chances associated with a tree of a given index are determined by a "pivot" index determined by the player's Trainer ID.

:<code>''pivot'' = ''trainer_id'' % 10</code>

If a tree's index matches the pivot index, its encounter chances are 80%; the next four tree indices (effectively, <code>( ''pivot'' + ''n'' ) % 10</code>, where ''n'' = 1...4) have encounter chances of 50%; and the remaining indices have encounter chances of 10%. The 80% and 50% indices make up the "moderate" encounter chances referred to above, and share a common set of Pokémon from which encounters are created, while the 10% indices draw from a different set of Pokémon for encounters.

==Generation IV==
[[File:Headbutt IV OW.png|thumb|{{m|Headbutt}}ing a tree in [[Generation IV]]]]
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Pokémon are not grouped by terrain, but now appear in specific locations. Unlike [[Generation II]], not all trees will guarantee an encounter with a wild Pokémon. However, if a tree does cause a wild Pokémon to appear, there is a high chance of encountering a Pokémon again next time, even if [[Repel]] is being used. Likewise, if no Pokémon appears when a tree is Headbutted, no Pokémon will ever appear for that tree.

Also, the population of Pokémon differs from tree to tree, as illustrated below.

For example, a tree in [[Pewter City]] may house {{p|Hoothoot}}, {{p|Pineco}} and {{p|Wurmple}}, while another in the same locality may house only Hoothoot and Wurmple. The level ranges may also differ for the same Pokémon. As such, not all Pokémon may be found in one tree within a specific location; the (Pewter City) table only reflects the lowest and highest possible level of all Pokémon found in the entire location.

This also explains why some Pokémon can only be found in a ''specific tree'' within that location (e.g. {{p|Starly}} in Pewter City or {{p|Taillow}} in [[Cherrygrove City]]). These trees are usually hidden, or only accessible via an [[HM]] like {{m|Surf}} or {{m|Rock Climb}}.

'''Ilex Forest''' (Japanese: '''ウバメのもり''' ''Ubame Forest'') is a dense [[forest]] located in southern [[Johto]], directly west of [[Azalea Town]]. The forest's trees are so close together that all light is blocked out, and the forest seems to be in a perpetual night.

There is a [[#Ilex Forest Shrine|Shrine]] for the guardian of the forest, {{p|Celebi}}. In {{game|Crystal}}, if [[Kurt]] has already examined the [[GS Ball]], placing it in the shrine will cause a [[level]] 30 {{p|Celebi}} to face the player; however, the GS Ball was never distributed to non-Japanese games. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Shrine also may initiate a special event in which Celebi will take the player back in time.

==Geography==
Ilex Forest is a winding path through dense trees connecting [[Azalea Town]] and {{rt|34|Johto}}. There are many patches of [[long grass]] on the ground where low-leveled Pokémon can be found. Travelers can enter at either end with no trouble at all, but to pass through to the other side they must be able to use the move {{m|Cut}} outside of battle.

===Cut===
When the player enters the forest, the only way to proceed through the next section of the forest is to return a runaway {{p|Farfetch'd}} for the regional cutting master's son, thus receiving {{HM|01|Cut}} as a reward, allowing the player to clear the path from a cuttable tree.

In [[Generation II]], this is done by using the forest's layout to chase it back, using a looped path on the far eastern side, as well as a [[ledge]]d area. In order to tactically return the runaway Farfetch'd to its owner, the player must corner it and lead it into the direction of the owner.

In [[Generation IV]], there are two Farfetch'd and each needs to be approached while they are facing the other way. The player can do this by walking over sticks and, by doing so, causing them to rustle. This grabs the Farfetch'd's attention and, if no other sticks are rustled, may allow them to be approached from behind. Once the Farfetch'd are returned, the player will receive {{HM|01|Cut}}.

===Headbutt===
In the center of the forest is a man who, in Generation II, will hand out {{TM|02|Headbutt}}. Using Headbutt on one of the trees in the forest can sometimes yield a wild Pokémon, which Trainers may wish to capture.

In Generation IV, as Headbutt is no longer a TM, the man is instead a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach Headbutt for free an unlimited number of times. Now all trees in all locations can be Headbutted, but not all will yield a Pokémon.

===Ilex Forest Shrine===
[[File:HGSS Prerelease Shiny Pichu event.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Spiky-eared Pichu]] near the shrine]]
{{main|Ilex Forest shrine}}
{{Template:Spoilers}}
The shrine is a small structure located in the Ilex Forest. It is used in obtaining two event-exclusive Pokémon. It can be found in the deepest part of Ilex Forest, situated right in the center of the forest itself.

Players of Japanese versions of {{game|Crystal}} can place the [[GS Ball]] on the shrine, to make a level 30 Celebi appear. The player then has the opportunity to capture the {{2t|Psychic|Grass}} Pokémon.

Players of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} are able to unlock a special Pichu here, [[Spiky-eared Pichu]]. This Pichu is unique from others as it has a different pattern on one of its ears. If the shrine is approached with a promotional event {{p|Celebi}} as the [[walking Pokémon|partner Pokémon]], Celebi will take the player back in time—in which they witness the secret to [[Silver (game)|Silver]]'s past, and in which they {{pkmn|battle}} his father, [[Giovanni]] the boss of [[Team Rocket]], in [[Tohjo Falls]], before he responds to the hijacked [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]]'s broadcast pleading for his return.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ilex Forest anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Ilex Forest in the anime]]
[[File:Ilex Forest shrine anime.png|thumb|right|200px|Ilex Forest shrine in the anime]]
Ilex Forest appeared in a number of episodes in the {{pkmn|anime}}, as {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} traveled from [[Azalea Town]] to [[Goldenrod City]]. The first episode it was seen in was ''[[EP145|A Farfetch'd Tale]]'', where Ash encounters the [[Ilex Forest shrine|shrine]] dedicated to the forest's protector. He would later revisit the shrine—or perhaps one of many different shrines—in ''[[M04|Pokémon 4Ever]]''. [[Ash's Noctowl]] was caught within the forest in ''[[EP154|Fowl Play!]]'', one of the final episodes set here.

The forest is much larger in the anime than the games, which is why it was the setting for so many episodes. People are shown to be living in it, and there are small villages scattered throughout, and even a [[Pokémon Center]].
{{-}}

==Name origin==
"Ubame" comes from ウバメガシ ''ubamegashi'', Ubame oak (''Quercus phillyraeoides''), a species of tree used to make {{wp|binchōtan}} charcoal.

"Ilex" is the genus of {{wp|holly}}. Considering its Japanese name, it may also be derived from ''{{wp|Quercus ilex}}'', the holm oak or holly oak, another tree commonly used in charcoal manufacture.

==Trivia==
* It is the only forest where [[wild Pokémon]] appear without any tall grass.
* In the Generation II games, the in-game maps made it appear that a route existed between Azalea Town and Ilex Forest, despite players entering the forest immediately after leaving the town. This was corrected for the in-game maps in [[Generation IV]].

'''Ilex Forest''' (Japanese: '''ウバメのもり''' ''Ubame Forest'') is a dense [[forest]] located in southern [[Johto]], directly west of [[Azalea Town]]. The forest's trees are so close together that all light is blocked out, and the forest seems to be in a perpetual night.

In {{game|Crystal}}, if [[Kurt]] has already examined the [[GS Ball]], placing it in the shrine will cause a [[level]] 30 {{p|Celebi}} to face the player. However, the GS Ball was never distributed to non-Japanese games.

==Geography==
Ilex Forest is a winding path through dense trees connecting [[Azalea Town]] and {{rt|34|Johto}}. There are many patches of [[long grass]] on the ground where low-leveled Pokémon can be found. Travelers can enter at either end with no trouble at all, but to pass through to the other side they must be able to use the move {{m|Cut}} outside of battle.

===Cut===
When the player enters the forest, the only way to proceed through the next section of the forest is to return a runaway {{p|Farfetch'd}} for the regional cutting master's son, thus receiving {{HM|01|Cut}} as a reward, allowing the player to clear the path from a cuttable tree.

In [[Generation II]], this is done by using the forest's layout to chase it back, using a looped path on the far eastern side, as well as a [[ledge]]d area. In order to tactically return the runaway Farfetch'd to its owner, the player must corner it and lead it into the direction of the owner.

In [[Generation IV]], there are two Farfetch'd and each needs to be approached while they are facing the other way. The player can do this by walking over sticks and, by doing so, causing them to rustle. This grabs the Farfetch'd's attention and, if no other sticks are rustled, may allow them to be approached from behind. Once the Farfetch'd are returned, the player will receive {{HM|01|Cut}}.

===Headbutt===
In the center of the forest is a man who, in Generation II, will hand out {{TM|02|Headbutt}}. Using Headbutt on one of the trees in the forest can sometimes yield a wild Pokémon, which Trainers may wish to capture.

In Generation IV, as Headbutt is no longer a TM, the man is instead a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach Headbutt for free an unlimited number of times. Now all trees in all locations can be Headbutted, but not all will yield a Pokémon.

===Ilex Forest Shrine===
[[File:HGSS Prerelease Shiny Pichu event.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Spiky-eared Pichu]] near the shrine]]
{{main|Ilex Forest shrine}}
The shrine is a small structure located in the Ilex Forest. It is used in obtaining two event-exclusive Pokémon. It can be found in the deepest part of Ilex Forest, situated right in the center of the forest itself.

Players of Japanese versions of {{game|Crystal}} can place the [[GS Ball]] on the shrine, to make a level 30 Celebi appear. The player then has the opportunity to capture the {{2t|Psychic|Grass}} Pokémon.

Players of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} are able to unlock a special Pichu here, [[Spiky-eared Pichu]]. This Pichu is unique from others as it has a different pattern on one of its ears. If the shrine is approached with a promotional event {{p|Celebi}} as the [[walking Pokémon|partner Pokémon]], Celebi will take the player back in time where they can {{pkmn|battle}} the [[Team Rocket]] boss, [[Giovanni]].

Sky Gift

2015-11-23T01:11:39Z

Mastication clover:

{{incomplete}}

A '''Sky Gift''' (Japanese: '''そらのおくりもの''' ''Sky Gift'') is a treasure in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]] that is meant for giving; If the player finds one and opens it, it will be empty. It is a box in wrapping paper with a [[Gracidea]], a flower that conveys gratitude on special occasions, tied in its bow.

A Sky Gift can only be found in one of the ten dungeons of [[Sky Peak Mountain Path]]. The {{p|Pachirisu}} from [[Spinda's Café]] gives the player one if talked to while climbing Sky Peak as thanks for saving the world. A {{p|Delibird}} can occasionally be found at the ninth station, and will give the player a Sky Gift. A {{p|Numel}} may be found at one of the clearings and will give a Sky Gift if the player gives it the Orb it requests. A {{p|Happiny}} gives the player a Sky Gift in exchange for various kinds of Apples. A {{p|Jumpluff}} found at one of the stations, when encountered, will also yield a Sky Gift. Sky Gifts can be sent to Pokémon at [[Wigglytuff's Guild]] and the player's partner from [[Shaymin Village]]. The Pokémon will then send the player a letter of thanks, along with an item, which is often either a [[Sitrus Berry]] or a Gold Ticket. The player is then able to pick the letter up at Spinda's Café.

'''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン不思議のダンジョン　時の探検隊''' ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time'') and '''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン不思議のダンジョン　闇の探検隊''' ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness'') are a matched pair of Pokémon games for the [[Nintendo DS]]. These games are the second pair of entries in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], an adaptation of the {{wp|Mystery Dungeon}} games for Pokémon.

The games are successors to [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]. They include the new [[Generation IV]] Pokémon and have some Wi-Fi features, as well as more dual-screen features than their predecessor for the same system (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team).

An [[SS020|anime adaptation]] of these games has been produced.

These games feature 491 Pokémon; {{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Arceus}} were excluded for they had yet to be officially revealed when the games were released. The games were released on April 20, 2008.

[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|A third installment]] was developed by [[Chunsoft]] and was released on April 18, 2009 in Japan.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
The story begins with a cut-scene where the {{player}} is to have been unconscious on a beach due to a time-traveling accident, causing him/her to become a Pokémon. Meanwhile, the partner is nervous about joining the [[Wigglytuff's Guild]], a local exploration club, and gives up early. Walking along the beach, the partner encounters the player, and informs that the player has been turned into a Pokémon. The [[Relic Fragment]] the partner holds is then stolen by {{p|Zubat}} and {{p|Koffing}}, members of [[Team Skull]], which the player helps recover. After a brief exchange, the partner explains their motivation for joining the guild. The player's partner loves legend and lore and their life dream is to find the secret of their personal treasure—a Relic Fragment with a strange pattern on it. The partner, reinvigorated by the player's courage, joins the Guild as a new team with the player.

Over the next few days, the team gets accustomed to life at the Guild and the nearby [[Treasure Town]]. Among the folks they meet are {{mdc|Wigglytuff|2}}, the kindhearted Guild Leader, {{mdc|Chatot|2}}, the hot-tempered yet well-meaning second-in-command, {{mdc|Bidoof|2}}, the newest recruit prior to the team joining, the Guild chef {{p|Chimecho}} (also in charge of maintaining the team), {{p|Diglett}} and {{mdc|Loudred|2}}, the Guild sentries, {{p|Dugtrio}}, maintainers of the job boards, {{p|Magnezone}}, the local sheriff, and other exploration teams. As they are introduced to the Guild, they learn of the fact that rogue Pokémon have been wreaking havoc in the world due to the disruption of time, Pokémon cannot [[evolution|evolve]], and new "Mystery Dungeons" have been revealed and open to exploration.

The player discovers not too long after that he/she has the ability to spontaneously see things in the past and future, but only when touching an object of some kind. This is known as the [[Dimensional Scream]], as revealed later by {{mdc|Dusknoir|2}}.

===The legend of the Time Gears===
One stormy night, the partner finds the player unconscious on the beach, at which point the player realizes that they have been transformed. A Zubat and Koffing come and steal the partner's prized possession, the Relic Fragment. The player helps get it back and the two form an exploration team. They go to Wigglytuff's Guild to register their team. The team does their first job the next day and it ends in a success. That night, the partner tells the player the story of the [[Time Gear]]s; the artifacts that maintain the flow of time in their respective regions. The partner theorizes that if a Time Gear is stolen, time in that area will stop. Despite this, a mysterious thief is seen stealing a Time Gear.

One day, the player and partner, along with the Guild and Team Skull (as special guests), make an expedition to a location called [[Fogbound Lake]], a lake seemingly covered in fog. Arriving there, the player recalls the place as being familiar, but cannot ascertain as to why. At the top, they find and defeat {{p|Groudon}} to find out that it was only an illusion made by the [[Lake guardians|Lake Guardian]], {{mdc|Uxie|2}}, who is said to be able to erase the memories of all who arrive there. Uxie does not trust the Guild, fearing that they may take the Time Gear at the center of the lake, hence the reason for erasing the memories. However, after an appeal from the partner, the Guild earns Uxie's trust, and Uxie decides not to erase the memories of the Guild or the lake's treasure.

Returning home, they meet a famous explorer named {{mdc|Dusknoir|2}}, who explains that the player's ability to see through time is called the [[Dimensional Scream]]. Asking Dusknoir how the player had arrived in their condition, they surprisingly get no results. Nevertheless, Dusknoir offers their help in uncovering the secret behind the player's transformation. Just then, however, the Guild reports that the Time Gear from Fogbound Lake has been stolen, and an all-points bulletin has been posted for the arrest of {{mdc|Grovyle|2}}. As a result, Wigglytuff has the Guild focus their energies on bringing Grovyle to justice, to which Dusknoir also offers his assistance. The Guild splits up to look for the other Time Gears, while the player's team eventually discovers an underground lake beneath the Northern Desert, which is home to a Time Gear. The Time Gear is guarded over by {{p|Mesprit}}, which the team defeats. Just as the partner explains that they are not there to steal the Time Gear, Grovyle appears. Grovyle easily dispatches the team and the weakened Mesprit, and steals the Time Gear. Fortunately, the team and Mesprit manages to escape before they are frozen in time.

Back at the guild, the failure of the team to stop Grovyle meant that there are no leads to his next location. However, Dusknoir determines that, as Uxie is the being of knowledge, and Mesprit is the being of emotion, thus {{p|Azelf}}, the being of willpower, is likely to be guarding another Time Gear. Dusknoir further explains that as Uxie and Mesprit were encountered in lakes, Azelf is also likely to be found in a lake area. Hoping to find a lead, Dusknoir asks the player to touch a treasure that Bidoof took with him at [[Crystal Cave]], in order to trigger a Dimensional Scream. Indeed, after touching it, the player sees a vision where Azelf is defeated at the hands of Grovyle. However, Chimecho is unsure—because the Dimensional Scream cannot tell the difference between past and future, Grovyle may have already made off with the Time Gear. Dusknoir remains confident that it is of the future, as the partner had never heard Azelf's name before Dusknoir had mentioned it. Because there is a chance that the Dimensional Scream is describing the future, the Guild decides to have all hands search the cave. The team arrives at the lake in the middle of the cave, where they find Azelf about to be defeated by Grovyle. However, just as Grovyle is about to steal the Time Gear, Azelf activates a fail-safe trap. The trap covers the lake in crystals, preventing Grovyle from submerging underwater and reaching the Time Gear. This does not deter Grovyle, and the team is knocked unconscious and the partner is badly wounded. Before Grovyle can finish the partner off, Dusknoir appears. The team discovers that Dusknoir and Grovyle have been long acquainted, but before they can delve any further, Grovyle makes his getaway, and Dusknoir chases after the Pokémon. Just then, the Guild finds the team, and cart them back to the guild.

Some time later, the team reawakens back at the guild. The partner recalls the exchange between Dusknoir and Grovyle, and the information is shared with the Guild and Azelf. Just then, the Guild's emergency alarm sounds, requiring everyone to be in attendance at a town meeting. In town, they find Dusknoir, who reminds everyone that Grovyle is still at large. Dusknoir further claims that Grovyle is a Pokémon from the future—there, Grovyle was a criminal, who fled to the past to avoid being captured. He plots to steal the Time Gears, which in turn would freeze the world in time, thus causing the planet's paralysis. Water would not flow, the sun would not rise, the seasons would not change, and darkness would cover the world. When {{p|Corphish}} is curious as to why Dusknoir knows all of this, Dusknoir reveals that he, too, is from the future, sent back in time to capture Grovyle and bring him to justice. The Guild and townsfolk all agree to help Dusknoir stop Grovyle. Azelf has a plan to trap Grovyle—as the Time Gear in Crystal Lake still remains, they are certain that Grovyle will return for it. In order to lure Grovyle, the townsfolk spread a false rumor that the lake trio will try to seal the Time Gear away permanently, while the trio will be defending the Time Gear, awaiting the moment to make the jump on Grovyle. Although everyone wants to help, Dusknoir insists on doing so alone as to avoid suspicion.

A few days later, a report from Magnezone arrives, indicating that Grovyle has been captured, and that Dusknoir plans to take Grovyle back to the future to face justice. To do so, Dusknoir has opened a Dimensional Hole in the middle of town square. In town, the townsfolk find the Dimensional Hole, but no sign of Dusknoir. As the lake trio explain to the partner that the Time Gears were recovered and were returned, Dusknoir appears with Grovyle and two {{p|Sableye}}. As Grovyle is carted off into the Dimensional Hole, Dusknoir gives his farewell. But before he steps through the portal, he asks the player's team to step forward. When they step next to the portal, the partner explains a sad farewell, but then, Dusknoir suddenly grabs the team and drags them into the portal. Before the townsfolk can give chase, the Dimensional Hole closes and disappears suddenly.

===Escape from the future===
The player is woken up by the partner, who reveals that they have been locked in a cell. Just then, they encounter some guards—a group of {{p|Sableye}}. Six Sableye blindfold them and take them to another room, where they find themselves bound to a pole, awaiting execution. Along with the two is Grovyle, also tied up. Dusknoir appears, giving the orders to the Sableye to execute the three. Grovyle convinces the team to cooperate - while the Sableye to attack the ropes that tie them to the stake, there is a slight chance of breaking the ropes, and it may allow the three to escape. Fortunately, the ropes break free, and the three overwhelm the Sableye. This allows Grovyle to use a {{DL|Wonder Orb|Luminous Orb}}, and take the team to safety. Back outside, Grovyle reveals that they are indeed in the future, but despite the lake trio returning the Time Gears back to their original places, the planet has been paralyzed.

Continuing to elude the Sableye, the partner loses confidence on whether they will ever return home. The player then proposes to the partner to catch up to the Grovyle, and ask how he had traveled back to the past in the first place. They eventually catch up to Grovyle, and save him from the {{p|Spiritomb}} who had knocked him out earlier. Though Grovyle is reluctant to help them (because the partner still does not trust him), he proceeds to tell his side of the story. The world's paralysis dated back to the present day, with the collapse of the Temporal Tower, governed by {{mdc|Dialga|2}}, the legendary Pokémon that controls time. When the tower collapsed, Dialga lost control of time, and it too lost all control. Dialga turned berserk, becoming [[Primal Dialga]]. Seeking only self-preservation, Primal Dialga tried to prevent history from changing, and hence its need to exterminate Grovyle and the team. The partner is visibly shocked by this revelation—and even more so when Grovyle reveals that he collected the Time Gears to prevent the tower from collapsing. Grovyle continues, claiming that the time stop caused by the removal of the Time Gears is merely temporary—the area affected would return to normal once the gears were placed in Temporal Tower. Grovyle then further revealed that Dusknoir is an agent of Primal Dialga sent to stop him and the team, and had everyone in the past played for fools.

Though the partner does not believe Grovyle, the player believes that Grovyle's assertions are reasonable, and that the partner cannot seem to accept the truth. The partner even thought of going back to the stockade and ask Dusknoir to reveal the truth. Grovyle leaves to find {{mdc|Celebi|2}}, the time-traveling Pokémon, to start his mission anew. Although the player is determined to follow Grovyle, the partner is more reluctant. Nevertheless, the partner agrees to follow, if only to find a way to return to the present. The group eventually manages to find Celebi, who replied that the player is Grovyle's friend. However, Grovyle didn't hear what Celebi said, and before the team can react, Grovyle reminds the team to get a move on. Celebi leads the group to the Passage of Time—a secret corridor spanning multiple dimensions. However, before they can go through the passage, they are stopped by Dusknoir and the Sableye, who had caught up to them. Surrounded, the group has no choice but to overpower Dusknoir and the Sableye. However, when Primal Dialga appears, Grovyle, believing that they are outmatched, has no choice but to surrender. He contends that at least hope will remain, for he had not time traveled alone before. When he first traveled back to the past, he and his human partner had been separated. Dusknoir, however, believes otherwise, and forces Grovyle to tell the name of his partner - the player. The partner is surprised at this revelation—and Grovyle and Celebi are even more surprised that the player is standing with them. Grovyle refuses to believe that the player has been turned into a Pokémon, but Dusknoir had planned to eliminate the player and Grovyle, and had merely befriended the team and the Guild so as to destroy them all in one shot.

The partner is shocked by the revelation, partly because at one point they had idolized Dusknoir, and partly from sticking with the player. The partner has a plan to elude Dusknoir and his underlings—all that is needed is to have Celebi teleport them closer to the Passage. Although Celebi recognizes that Dialga could detect them, Celebi agrees to the partner's idea. They fail to escape Dusknoir, but they get to the Passage. Celebi implores the rest of the group to leave through the Passage, leaving Dusknoir to herself. It is believed that Celebi managed to elude capture as the group returned back to the present.

===Racing the clock===
Arriving back to the present, the partner explains that the beach that they are on was where the player was first found. However, before the partner can lead Grovyle back to the Guild to plan their next move, he reminds them that in the present time, Grovyle is a criminal. The partner, seeing the complications this may cause, instead takes the player and Grovyle to a cliff known as [[Sharpedo Bluff]] (named as the cliff is in the shape of a {{p|Sharpedo}}), which was the home of the partner prior to joining the Guild. That night, Grovyle explains to the partner the common history between himself and the player. The player and Grovyle had been a formidable team investigating the planet's paralysis. The player had the ability to perform the Dimensional Scream, but only in the presence of a trusted partner. Grovyle further explains that the Dimensional Scream is set off by triggers tied to places where Time Gears were hidden. The partner realizes that the player had a lot of trust in them, largely due to having witnessed the Dimensional Scream. However, the partner also realizes that perhaps Dimensional Screams had worked differently in the past, as the player had experienced them in incidents unrelated to Time Gears. In any event, the three quickly agree to plot a new plan to take the Time Gears.
Later, the partner shares their story of the Relic Fragment with Grovyle. Grovyle and the partner agree that the player has a connection to the both of them - the player had made each of them stronger. The trio redoubles their efforts to retake the Time Gears, starting with the one in Treeshroud Forest, where Grovyle had found the one unguarded. However, after arriving there, they find that, despite the presence of the Time Gear, time has stopped—a sign that [[Temporal Tower]] is already starting to collapse.

That night, back at Sharpedo Bluff, the partner reveals, after a fact-finding mission, that time in other places is also stopped, despite the return of the Time Gears. It appears that the only way to restore time is to take the Time Gears to Temporal Tower. This is easier said than done, though; the Tower is located in the [[Hidden Land]], and no one knows where the Hidden Land is. Desperate, and running out of options and time, the player convinces the partner to return back to the Guild. The Guild is surprised to find that the team has returned, but is more surprised when the team reveals their story. The Guild, though shocked at the revelations brought forth by the team, agrees to help retrieve the Time Gears, and tells the lake trio to allow Grovyle to reclaim the ones they guard. The team is recommended by Wigglytuff to see {{mdc|Torkoal|2}}, the town elder, for advice on finding the Hidden Land. At the hot springs, Torkoal reveals that the Hidden Land is a place beyond the oceans, but also a place which only appears to those with sufficient "proof". However, Torkoal does not recall what is needed for such "proof". The next day, however, Torkoal arrives at the Guild Hall with one new recollection—the "proof" is an inscription of a certain pattern—the same pattern found in the Relic Fragment. What is more surprising is that Wigglytuff and Chatot have also seen the same pattern—found in a distant place called [[Brine Cave]], where bandits had scared the two in an earlier adventure. Nevertheless, the Guild decides to make an expedition to Brine Cave. Meanwhile, the team hears word that Grovyle has taken all the Time Gears, but warns that Dusknoir may also return from the future to hunt them down.

The next day, The Guild (without Wigglytuff) arrives at Brine Cave, where they split up to reach the innermost part, with Chatot following the team. However, partway into the cave, they are ambushed by Team Skull, who steal the Relic Fragment. Though Chatot gives chase and manages to catch them, by the time the team manages to catch up, they find both Team Skull and Chatot severely wounded, due to themselves having been ambushed by two {{p|Omastar}} and {{p|Kabutops}}. After dispatching them, the team tend to Chatot. Just then, Wigglytuff and Grovyle arrive, with the rest of the Guild in tow. Wigglytuff is particularly concerned, as Chatot had been severely injured by the Omastar and Kabutops protecting Wigglytuff in their last trip to Brine Cave. Urging the team and Grovyle to continue, the Guild return home to tend to Chatot's wounds. Further in, the team discovers a rock wall pointing out to sea, on which is a wall pattern similar to the one found on the Relic Fragment. When the Relic Fragment is presented, a light shines out towards the sea. Just then, a {{mdc|Lapras|2}} arrives. At the same time, back at the Guild, Wigglytuff explains to the Guild the story of how he and Chatot had previously encountered the pattern on the Relic Fragment: Chatot had been injured by Omastar and Kabutops while protecting Wigglytuff. Though Wigglytuff had fended off the Omastar and Kabutops, he had felt helpless because he could not help Chatot. Just then, Lapras had appeared to help Chatot, on the condition that they not explore the wall pattern further. Back with the team, Lapras, while ferrying the team and Grovyle, explains that she is the gatekeeper to the Hidden Land, a land that exists in a different dimension—within a moment of time. The Hidden Land is as such because Dialga had feared that interference by exploration teams or bad Pokémon could affect the flow of time. Dialga had, however, left one key to entering the Hidden Land, within the Relic Fragment. Wigglytuff had known this, and had realized that the promise to Lapras could not be kept in the interests of saving the world, and thus had set off towards Brine Cave ahead of the Guild to find Lapras. Lapras explained to Wigglytuff then that the Relic Fragment chooses who may visit the Hidden Land, and it had chosen the partner due to the partner's purity of heart. Now, it lies upon the team to explore the land and save the world.

===Saving the world===
Arriving at the [[Hidden Land]], Lapras tells them that in order to reach the Temporal Tower, they must take the Rainbow Stoneship, located inside an old ruin. Finding the ruin, the partner is astounded at what they can find—pictures of legendary Pokémon {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Dialga}}, and {{p|Palkia}} engraved on the wall. Proceeding further, they find a temple where, at the top, they find the Ruin Fragment pattern. The team discovers that the temple itself is the Rainbow Stoneship, and in order for the ship to operate, the Relic Fragment must be slotted in one of the indentations. But before the partner can do so, they are captured by Dusknoir and the Sableye entourage. Dusknoir takes their captives to a nearby Dimensional Hole, but before the team can be put through it, they overwhelm the Sableye, prompting Dusknoir to fight back. The team is able to defeat Dusknoir in battle, but while the partner goes to activate the Rainbow Stoneship, Dusknoir warns that should they succeed in their quest, the Pokémon of the future, including the player and Grovyle, will be erased from existence, because they are from a future that will no longer exist. Grovyle admits that this is the case, but that their sacrifice is worth the trouble if it means that the future can be saved. The player accepts this fate, even though the player knows that the partner will not take it as easily as the player or Grovyle.

Meanwhile, the partner succeeds in activating the Rainbow Stoneship, but Dusknoir manages to recover and attack the player before either the player or Grovyle is on board. Just as Dusknoir tries to finish off the player, Grovyle intervenes. In a move of desperation, Grovyle pushes Dusknoir towards the Dimensional Hole, hoping that in his own sacrifice, Grovyle will erase Dusknoir from existence. Dropping the Time Gears, Grovyle pushes Dusknoir and himself through the Dimensional Hole, but not without giving his last goodbye. The partner recovers the Time Gears, and the team proceed on the Rainbow Stoneship, with the player keeping silent to the partner about his/her fate. With a heavy heart, the team head towards Temporal Tower to take on their final mission.

Arriving at the top of Temporal Tower as the tower itself is collapsing, they find a mystical relic with five indentations. Before the partner slots in the Time Gears into the indentations, the team is attacked by none other than Primal Dialga, having just gone berserk. Realizing that there is no reasoning with Primal Dialga, the team prepare to battle it out to the end. After a long battle, Primal Dialga is defeated, and the partner takes the opportunity to install the Time Gears. The earthquakes destroying the tower eventually stop, and Dialga is restored back to normal. Dialga quickly uses its powers to restore the world back to normal, though Temporal Tower remains heavily damaged. Dialga explains that the world's paralysis has been prevented with the installation of the Time Gears, and that peace has been restored. Dialga says its thanks to the team, but also warns that the world can only be back to normal in time. Dialga shows the team out of the Temporal Tower, where the Rainbow Stoneship and Lapras are awaiting them for their ride home.

On the way back, the player feels the effects of being slowly erased from existence. The partner notices this, and wonders what is wrong. The player says his/her goodbyes, regretting that the partner was kept in the dark on the player's situation. The player slowly fades out of existence as the partner makes their tearful goodbye. The partner returns home, crying, but knowing that the player has made the partner stronger. Back home, the partner tells the townsfolk and the guild everything—how they had traveled across the [[Hidden Land]], how Grovyle and the player had sacrificed themselves, and how they had saved the world.

Months have passed since the incident. The damages from time have slowly been healed, and life has returned to normal for most... but not for the partner, still mourning over the player's disappearance. At the beach, the partner is taking a walk, when the partner is reminded of the player and their adventures together, and how now the player is gone—erased from existence. The partner collapses on the beach out of extreme sadness, and starts crying. The end credits roll at this point.

After the credits, Dialga feels the partner's great sorrow in the distance. Using its powers, Dialga brings the player back to life, as thanks for bringing it back in control. The player reappears at the beach, where the partner and Bidoof are crying, overjoyed to find the player alive.

===Post-game story===
As with previous games, there is a post-credits story. Several months after the player was brought back, {{mdc|Wigglytuff|2}} decides that the player's team is ready for an exam to qualify for graduation from the Guild (apparently only accepting one team per year). They are told to go find the treasure found in [[Luminous Spring]], a place where Pokémon used to go to evolve, but are also warned to avoid the "grand master of all things bad" who lives there with his minions. Although {{p|Loudred}} is not allowed to speak of the test, having taken it the year before, {{p|Ursaring}} and {{p|Teddiursa}}, two Treasure Town locals, claim of going to the springs before and meeting no such "Grand Master". Upon reaching the spring, the team run into Ursaring and Teddiursa and conclude that the "Grand Master" does not exist before falling into the lair of the "Grand Master", who turns out to be none other than Wigglytuff and the guild members (revealed by a slip up by {{mdc|Bidoof|2}}, who continues to deny it till the end). After defeating the whole guild, the team continues their journey with Ursaring and Teddiursa. They find that the treasure is actually a {{DL|Food (Mystery Dungeon)|Perfect Apple}} left in a chest by Wigglytuff himself (through the help of the player's [[Dimensional Scream]]). They also find the Luminous Spring to be able to evolve Pokémon again, as Teddiursa evolves into an Ursaring after she steps into the spring and made her choice to evolve. The team, however, is told by the voice of the spring that they couldn't evolve yet, due to time being distorted. Later, they return the treasure to the guild and graduate, finding that the only benefit is that they can explore on their own and change the group leader, but they still have to give most of their reward money to the guild. Having graduated, the team moves their headquarters to Sharpedo Bluff.

Then, {{p|Mr. Mime}} appears in Treasure Town stating the famous explorer {{p|Scizor}} has been missing in a place called the [[Blizzard Island]]. The team pays a visit and finds Scizor frozen solid by {{p|Froslass}}. After they rescue Scizor, Scizor gives the team the "[[Rank (Mystery Dungeon)|Secret Rank]]" which the team and everyone else knows nothing about. This rank is used for the 7 dungeons home to the great [[Seven Treasures]].

One day, the player finds Corphish at the Guild's intersection, saying to go talk to {{mdc|Sunflora|2}} about something. When Sunflora is found on the lower level, she says that there is a land that has recently become possible to enter. This dungeon is called the [[Surrounded Sea]], supposedly home to hundreds of rare treasures brought by the currents that run through it. At the end of Surrounded Sea, there are three Deluxe Boxes and a {{pkmn|Egg|Wonder Egg}}, along with a warp tile that will get the player out of the dungeon. The next morning, the Egg hatches into a {{p|Manaphy}}. The team goes to see Chatot, who says that Manaphy are extremely rare. This makes the team take extra good care of it. A day later, the team takes Manaphy for a walk by the beach, which makes baby Manaphy incredibly happy. That night, however, when the team is asleep, Manaphy stays up and longingly stares out at the sea, eventually resorting to go to the shore. When the team wakes and finds Manaphy missing in the morning, they run around in a panic, trying to find it. They finally find it at the beach, where it suddenly keels over in the sand. Once the team reports to Chatot, the bird says that Manaphy are really supposed to grow up in the ocean. However, Manaphy's current ailment could only be cured by the Phione Dew, located in [[Miracle Sea]]. At the end of the dungeon, there are six {{p|Phione}}, who are driven away suddenly by an enraged, treasure-seeking {{p|Gyarados}}. After defeating Gyarados, he runs away, and in their thanks, the Phione gives the player the Phione Dew. After Manaphy is cured and with a few days of rest, a Pokémon named {{p|Walrein}} is told by Chatot to take care of Manaphy under the sea. With a tearful farewell, Manaphy is taken to its home.

After the player saves Manaphy and after a couple of days of plain jobs, [[Team Charm]] pays a visit to the Guild. Team Charm consists of {{p|Lopunny}}, {{p|Medicham}}, and {{p|Gardevoir}}. This trio is legendary for their rank, which is the Master Rank, and for their style of treasure hunting. A former member, surprisingly, is Wigglytuff. Team Charm came because they're stuck on a hunt for treasure because they don't have a key. They ask Wigglytuff and Wigglytuff "claims" that he doesn't have it. But just before everyone thinks Team Charm will leave, Lopunny gives Wigglytuff a Perfect Apple and Wigglytuff finds the key with a big bang from his room. When Team Charm is leaving, everyone asks if they can go to the [[Aegis Cave]], including the player's team. Lopunny, the leader of Team Charm, agrees and says everyone can go after they open Aegis Cave with the key. The treasure of Aegis Cave is guarded by three legendary beings, {{p|Regice}}, {{p|Regirock}}, and {{p|Registeel}}. After defeating them, Team Charm assists the player in fighting {{p|Regigigas}}.

Later, {{mdc|Darkrai|2}} (disguised as {{p|Cresselia}}) appears in the player's dreams and tells the player that their continued existence is causing a distortion in space. On the night before going to {{mdc|Palkia|2}} for an explanation, Palkia itself attacks the team, spiriting them away to its domain, the [[Spacial Rift]]. They battle Palkia for answers, but it gets trapped in a nightmare. Darkrai (still disguised as Cresselia) tries to finish off the team using Palkia, but it is stopped by another Cresselia, who reveals that the first was an impostor by the name of Darkrai, who reveals itself to be the one distorting space. Although Darkrai invites the team to stop him, Cresselia thinks it is a trap, because normally Darkrai run away when found, doing its work in the shadows and only coming out to finish the job. The team decides to heed Darkrai's call, and Darkrai reveals his plans, by stopping time or space, the world would stop and be covered in darkness, and all Pokémon would share an everlasting nightmare, in which Darkrai would rule. In addition to this, Darkrai also reveals that he had been responsible for everything right from the beginning, from the collapse of Temporal Tower to the player's very own transformation and memory loss. Darkrai lets the team decide if they want to join him ruling the world in darkness. The player's partner decides that it's useless to resist, so he/she decides to join Darkrai, but it's not real. The player realizes this is just another illusion, and breaks free of it. With the partner back on the player's side, the team battles Darkrai and his minions and wins hopefully. Darkrai attempts to flee through a portal, but Palkia arrives and attempts to stop Darkrai from leaving by unleashing an attack on him. But instead of destroying him, he attacks the Dimensional Hole, thus erasing Darkrai's memories, much like what happened to the player. Darkrai has no more memory of his evil ambitions for good, and wanders the Pokémon world; his location is at that point unknown.

==Wonder Mail exclusives==
Like the previous [[Mystery Dungeon]] games, some dungeons are unlocked through [[Wonder Mail]] codes. However, unlike those in the previous game, the bosses (listed below) are obtained through these codes. There is no reward, other than the treasure, for the Guardians of the [[Seven Treasures]]. They are all top-secret and self-deleting. {{p|Gabite}}'s is more like a normal Wonder Mail mission. To take any of these missions players must have gained Secret Rank, excluding the mission involving Gabite.

==Version-exclusive items==
There are also certain items that are only available in certain versions.

===Exclusive to Time===
* {{DL|Seed|Vile Seed}} — Reduces Defense and Special Defense when eaten.
* {{DL|Wonder Orb|Foe-Hold Orb}} — An item that afflicts all enemies on the floor with the Petrified status condition.
* {{DL|Mystery Dungeon evolutionary items|Sun Ribbon}} — An item that is used for Pokémon that usually evolve in the daytime.

===Exclusive to Darkness===
* {{DL|Seed|Violent Seed}} — Boosts Attack and Special Attack stats when eaten.
* {{DL|Wonder Orb|Foe-Seal Orb}} — An item that afflicts all enemies in the room with a Paused status condition.
* {{DL|Mystery Dungeon evolutionary items|Lunar Ribbon}} — An Item used for Pokémon that usually evolve at nighttime.

==Dungeon Tips==
* If the player remains on one floor of a dungeon for too long, this will happen:
** It will say "Something is stirring".
** It will say "Something is approaching".
** It will say "It's coming closer".
** It will say "It's right near! It's gusting hard!" Then the player's character will faint and be kicked out of the dungeon, suffering the same conditions as if they were defeated (see below), and cannot be prevented in any way (even if they have Reviver Seeds in their bag) other than proceeding to the next floor before it happens. The amount of turns the player can stay on one floor before this happens varies depending on the dungeon.
* Pokémon with the Float terrain Ability who try to cross magma will get burned (unless they have the "All-Terrain Hiker" IQ skill or are also {{type|Fire}}), but for {{t|Water}} type and the lake parts, it will be able to cross.
* Fully evolved Pokémon can be recruited in the game. However, they will have lower recruit rates.
* If the player or their partner is defeated in a dungeon before the post-game story, the team exits the dungeon and all of the player's money and some of the player's items are lost.

==Trivia==
* Unlike the previous [[Mystery Dungeon]] games, which only had a few characters with confirmed [[gender]]s, this game provides a gender for most of the characters. Even [[Legendary Pokémon]], who are usually genderless in the [[Core series|main series]] games, have a gender in this game.
* The names of [[Temporal Tower]] and [[Spacial Rift]] are based directly on the {{pkmn|category}} names of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, who are respectively the "Temporal Pokémon" and the "Spatial Pokémon". This is not the case in the Japanese version, however, where Spacial Rift is named ''Sky Fissure'' and Temporal Tower is named ''Dimension Tower''.

}}
'''Sea Mauville''' (Japanese: '''シーキンセツ''' ''Sea Kinsetsu'') is a decrepit research facility in the [[Hoenn]] region located to the north of {{rt|108|Hoenn}}. The second part of the structure can only be accessed by using {{m|Dive}} and contains the {{key|VI|Scanner}}.

Sea Mauville includes both the decrepit platform itself as well as the water area and sandbar outside of the facility; the northern exterior can only be accessed by travelling underwater inside the platform using {{m|Dive}}.

Sea Mauville takes the place of the [[Abandoned Ship]] from {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

==Geography==
In Omega Ruby, a portal appears at the end of the beam that extends a significant distance west and upwards from the platform if the player has the {{key|VI|Clear Bell}}; interacting with this portal will initiate a battle with {{p|Ho-Oh}}. In Alpha Sapphire, a portal appears at control desk in the submerged control room if the player has the {{key|VI|Tidal Bell}}; interacting with this portal will initiate a battle with {{p|Lugia}}.

After defeating or capturing {{p|Kyogre}}/{{p|Groudon}}, in the first (southeastern/lower left) room of the northern (right-hand) dry corridor, when the player enters the room the message "It feels as though you're being watched" will be displayed. If the player examines the left section of the bookcase in the upper-lefthand corner of the room, they will find a worn report regarding the history of the facility, after reading which the same message appears. Immediately after this, if the player opens a menu such that they cannot see the overworld, upon returning the screen to display the overworld the [[Odd Keystone]] appears, enabling the player to battle {{p|Spiritomb}}. The Odd Keystone will also appear if the player saves immediately after reading the worn report and loads that save; in this case, this effectively means that the player cannot continue without battling Spiritomb.

==History==
Sea Mauville was a facility commissioned by [[Greater Mauville Holdings]] and led by [[Wattson]] to extract the natural resources of the ocean. Members of the staff included [[Captain Stern]], [[Dock]], [[Professor Cozmo]]'s father [[Raizoh]], and Cap'n Salty. Due to several incidents, such as the closure of [[New Mauville]], the facility was closed. After its closure, an environmental survey discovered that the ruins had created a unique habitat for Pokémon and plants, such as {{wp|mangrove}}s, which only grow there and in [[Mossdeep City]]. Because of this, its demolition was canceled, and the ruin was revived as a natural preserve.

===Slogans===
:"''There is a worn-out sign. Sea Mauville's 10 slogans for a cheerful and fun workplace.''"
:"''01. Say good morning very loudly.''"
:"''02. Don't bring Pokémon to your workplace.''"

:"''04. Lay your life on the line in safety checks.''"
:"''05. Take joint responsibility for teamwork.''"
:"''06. Obey your superior's orders absolutely.''"
:"''07. Maintain top quality. Give up your sanity.''"
:"''08. Worship and praise the founder.''"

:"''1. The daybreak shines on Route 108. Wake up, our towering fort. For the bright future Hoenn, We won't take our days off. Dig through, dig out great energy. Ah, Sea Mauville, Sea Mauville, Sea Mauville.''"
:"''2. The bright light shines on Route 108. Intensely shiny, our fort. Swear your selfless devotion. Unionization is out of the question. Dig through, dig out great energy. Ah, Sea Mauville, Sea Mauville, Sea Mauville.''"
:"''3. Darkness descends on Route 108. Tonight again sleepless, our fort. Drive away our competitors. We won't take our overtime pay. Dig through, dig out great energy. Ah, Sea Mauville, Sea Mauville, Sea Mauville.''"

===Old note===
:"''There's an old note at the back of the cabinet with broken glass.''"
:"''Finally, the date of closing has been decided. I can't say thank you enough to Stern, who invited us to his shipyard when we would have been left adrift. Dock, who's done a dirty job, and I can both start with a clean slate. The only way we can repay him is to support his business with our skills.''"

===Apology===
The bookshelf that the player examines in order to fight {{p|Spiritomb}} holds papers describing that Raizoh Cozmo was held responsible for losing an [[Odd Keystone]] that was donated to the Sea Mauville by the [[Oreburgh Mine]] in [[Sinnoh]].

:"''The file folder holds a stack of ragged papers.''"

:"''The rest of the magazine has been torn away...''"

===Notebook===
The man with no power may be the same as the one in {{DL|Mauville City|Apartment 11}} in Mauville Hills.

:"''It's an old, hide-bound notebook.''"
:"''The damage caused by the cancellation of the New Mauville project has been catastrophic. As a member of the management, much of the blame and the debts will fall upon me. But that will be little consolation to the employees working under me who will lose their livelihoods. I couldn't do a thing for them... I'm a man with no power... Protecting nature and Pokémon and the environment... It's great as an idea. It's a fine ideal to aspire to. And Wattson is a great man for dreaming of it all. But cruel reality and the organization that I must try to preserve have dashed those dreams. I couldn't do a thing for him... I'm a man with no power..." This is the last page with writing on it. Other pages have been torn out.''"

===Newsletter===
:"''There are dirty papers inside the cabinet...''"
:"''Sea Mau—nal Newsletter #389''"

===Letters===
Five letters, a photograph, and a drawing are found in the northeastern (lower-right) room in the northern (right-hand) dry corridor:

* First:
:"''Dear [[Raikoh Cozmo|Daddy]],''
:"''How are you? Are you working really hard? I'm doing well. I'm doing all my homework, and I'm helping at home, too. Mommy's working hard and makes us dinner every night. Do you have to work this weekend? Are you going to come home? If you come home, take me to see the star show, OK?''
:"''—[[Takao Cozmo]]''
:"''P. S. I'm going to send you the picture I drew at the [[Trainers' School]].''"

* Second:
:''It looked like another letter, but it's a drawing. The drawing is of a boy's face, and written next to it are the words "I love you, Daddy."''

* Third:
:"''Dear Daddy,''
:"''How are you? Are you working really hard? I was sad that you didn't come last weekend. But Mommy didn't seem so sad. She went out with her friend. I finally got that telescope that I've been wanting. It was from you, wasn't it? Thanks, Daddy. I really, really wanted it. I like looking at the sky, Daddy. When I look at the stars, I wonder if you are looking at the same stars, too. Let's look at the stars together, next time you come home.''
:"''—Takao Cozmo''"

* Fourth:
:"''Dear Daddy,''
:"''How are you? You aren't working too hard, are you? You never come home anymore. I'm worried if you're OK. Mommy goes out with her friends a lot. It seems like fun, so I guess she's doing OK. The {{p|Shelgon}} that you gave me evolved the other day. But I liked it better when it was a Shelgon and it looked like a [[Meteorite]]. {{p|Salamence}} was kind of a letdown, so I asked a friend to trade it for his {{p|Solrock}}. I'm sorry, Daddy. I know it was a present, but I think Solrock is cooler. When it gets dark tonight, I'm going to look at the stars again. I'll think of you when I do.''
:"''—Takao Cozmo''"

* Fifth:
:"''Dear Daddy,''
:"''I was really, really happy to get to meet you the other day. It was so fun playing together again and going to see the star show, too, even if it was just the two of us. It was sad that Mommy couldn't go, and even more sad when you and Mommy fought that night. I'll study hard, just like you told me, and I'll be a good boy, so don't fight. But let me keep watching the stars, even if I have to do all my homework, too. When I grow up, I want to be a professor and study the stars.''
:"''—Takao Cozmo''"

* Sixth:
:"''Dear Daddy,''
:"''Thank you for writing to me. I'm doing really well here, so please don't worry about me. I hope I'll see you again someday. I dream about it all the time. I brought the telescope you bought me to our new house. Please don't work too hard, Daddy. I hope you are OK. I will always, always love the stars, and I will always, always love you.''
:"''—Takao Cozmo''
:"''P. S. I'll give you my Hi {{p|Skitty}} doll. Please take care of it for me.''"

* Seventh:
:''It looked like another letter, but it's a photo. There's a little boy holding a telescope, with a woman beside him, looking bored.''

==Items==
Due to the rotation of the camera upon stepping on the platform from the southern exterior, the player needs to press left on the D-pad or circle pad to move north, with all other cardinal directions rotated accordingly. While the camera is not oriented this way while the player is in the southern exterior, it is while in the northern exterior.

Sea Mauville cannot be accessed without {{m|Surf}}, so all items located here require Surf to obtain.

Oreburgh Mine

2015-11-05T05:01:25Z

Mastication clover:

{{Infobox location
|image=Oreburgh Mine B2F Pt.png
|type=cave
|location_name=Oreburgh Mine
|japanese_name=クロガネたんこう
|translated_name=Kurogane Mine
|location=[[Oreburgh City]]
|region=Sinnoh
|generation={{gen|IV}}
|map=Sinnoh Oreburgh City Map.png
}}
The '''Oreburgh Mine''' (Japanese: '''クロガネたんこう''' ''Kurogane Mine'') is located in [[Oreburgh City]] and operated by [[Roark]]. It is one of the main features in the city, as well as the city's leading energy source. In order to battle Roark, the first Gym Leader of Sinnoh, the player must explore the mine and find him. After finding him, he will show the player how to use {{m|Rock Smash}} and then finally leave to go back to his Gym.

==Geography==
The Oreburgh Mine is one of the main features in the city, as well as the city's leading energy source. It is the livelihood of the town. Vents in the town allow steam to escape and fresh air to enter the mine, likely also clearing the mine of any poison gas (which is historically the bane of coal miners). The mine is operated with the utmost care to avoid causing damage to the natural habitats of wild Pokémon. The system of taking coal out of the mine is automated. Roark lets Trainers from the town train their Pokémon in the mine. The mine itself extends not only under the town, but the seafloor as well. All of the miners have their own Pokémon, usually {{p|Machop}}, to assist them in the mine.

The first part of the cave is the entrance where there is a stairwell that will gradually make its way down to the underground cavern. There are steel drums and crates located around the area, as well as a small conveyor belt, that, in {{game|Platinum}} extends to the undersea floor.

The sub floor, which contains a large piece of slab in the middle, is more complex. There are a few workers digging at the slab, but there are some who are training their Pokémon and are eager for a battle. There are two ways of getting around the slab, but only by traveling counter-clockwise can a player make a full rotation around the slab, as there is a small ledge blocking the path. There are a couple of crates located on this floor as well.

Poké Ball

2015-05-23T04:13:52Z

Mastication clover:

{{Featured|May 9, 2007}}
[[File:Allballs2.png|thumb|250px|right|The 26 Poké Ball variants found in the [[core series]]]]
[[File:Poké Ball sketch.png|thumb|right|Original concept]]
A '''Poké Ball''' (Japanese: '''モンスターボール''' ''Monster Ball'') is a type of [[item]] that is critical to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s quest, used for {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} and storing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Both a general term used to describe the various kinds as well as a specific term to refer to the most basic among these variations, Poké Balls are ubiquitous in the modern Pokémon world. Up to six Pokémon can be carried with a {{pkmn|Trainer}} in Poké Balls, while any number of other Poké Balls can be held in the [[Bag]] for later use. These six Pokémon in the Poké Balls can be attached to the user's belt for carrying them around. Some Pokémon do not like to be carried around in Poké Balls, such as [[Ash's Pikachu]].

The strength of a Poké Ball is determined by how much it raises a [[wild Pokémon]]'s [[catch rate]], and may in fact vary depending on the conditions of the battle. Poké Balls limit the power of Pokémon contained inside, taming them, though they do not cause the Pokémon inside to always obey the Trainer.

The [[History of Poké Balls|invention of Poké Balls]] apparently occurred in the [[Johto]] region, where [[Apricorn]]s grow; these fruit were cut apart and carved out, then fitted with a special device, and used to catch wild Pokémon prior to the mass production of the Balls that occurs in modern times under [[Silph Co.]] and the [[Devon Corporation]]. Some Trainers still use Poké Balls made from Apricorns, while [[Kurt]], a resident of [[Azalea Town]], still constructs them. In a [[Memory Link#A New Light|Memory Link]] in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], [[Drayden]] claims that Poké Balls did not exist during his childhood; however, due to Poké Balls being in the sunken ship in ''[[EP095|A Shipful of Shivers]]'', it is implied that in the {{pkmn|anime}}, Poké Balls were first made at least 300 years ago.

Prior to the invention of Poké Balls, Pokémon were referred to as magical creatures (Japanese: {{tt|魔獣|まじゅう}} ''majū''), indicating that the name Pokémon, short for Pocket Monster, did not come into common parlance as a term until Poké Balls allowed the various magical creatures to be stored easily.

Stylized Poké Balls are used in many places to symbolize Pokémon in general: the logos of both [[Battle Frontier]]s feature a Poké Ball in their design, while several Poké Balls can be seen in every Pokémon Center. The headgear of the protagonists of [[Kanto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]]-based games feature Poké Ball designs, as do the [[Bag]]s of the protagonists of [[Johto]]-based games. {{ga|Ethan}}'s headgear is also similar to the top half of an Ultra Ball, and {{ga|Lucas}}'s Bag prominently features a Poké Ball.

==Mechanics and design==
[[File:Anime Poke Ball Mechanics.jpg|thumb|280px|right|A schematic displaying Poké Ball size, storage and mechanics]]

Though the technology behind a Poké Ball remains unknown and has evolved through the centuries to accommodate the diverse requirements of their creators, the basic mechanics are simple enough to understand and tend to remain constant: in a [[Pokémon battle]], once an opposing wild Pokémon has been weakened, the Pokémon Trainer can throw a Poké Ball at it. When a Poké Ball hits the Pokémon, as long as it is not deflected, the Poké Ball will open, convert the Pokémon to a form of energy, pull it into its center, and close. A Pokémon in this state is given a chance to struggle to attempt to break free from the ball and escape, being instantly re-converted from energy into matter. Should a Pokémon escape a Poké Ball, the device will either be destroyed (in the games and some manga) or will return to the Trainer (anime), who can attempt once again to capture the Pokémon. A Pokémon who does not escape the ball will be {{pkmn2|caught}}.

[[File:Poke Ball Interior.png|thumb|250px|right|Interior of a Poké Ball from the anime]]

Poké Balls are specifically constructed for Pokémon capture, transport and training. As well as being physically difficult to escape from (as they seal tightly shut as soon as a Pokémon is taken into them) the environment of a Poké Ball is designed to be attractive to Pokémon also; according to Lucian of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], weakened Pokémon instinctively curl up tight in an attempt to heal themselves, an action that the environment of the Poké Ball encourages. Furthermore, while it is not known how a captured Pokémon perceives their time inside their Ball, the device is said to replicate a "Pokémon-friendly" environment that is "designed for comfort". All of these factors strongly discourage Pokémon from escaping their Balls. In the manga, Bugsy refers to his "capture net" as being the net that is supposedly inside a Poké Ball, but visible and already deployed. According to Kurt, this invisible net captures and physically stores a Pokémon.

Poké Balls are not always at full size. Pressing the button on the front will convert it between its full size, about the size of a {{wp|Baseball (object)|baseball}}, to a smaller size, about that of a {{wp|Table tennis#The ball|ping-pong ball}}, and back again. The larger size makes throwing the ball easier, while the smaller one makes for easier storage on a belt clip, in pockets, and in Bags.

As mentioned, the generic Poké Ball design is not constant and has been remodelled and altered innumerable times in order to create new Poké Balls that are adapted for specific conditions. For example, it is seen in several anime episodes such as ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down!]]'' and ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]'' that normal Poké Balls have difficulty catching Pokémon which are extremely large or extremely heavy. In the latter episode, it is revealed that ancient civilizations overcame this issue by constructing immense Poké Balls many times the size of the standard model known today, and made from stone instead. Other civilizations such as [[Pokémopolis]] also discovered new technologies that more closely resembled modern Poké Ball technology, such as the [[Pokémopolis#Pokémopolis artifacts|Dark Device]] and the [[Pokémopolis#Pokémopolis artifacts|Unearthly Urn]], which were also adapted for the capture and storage of massive Pokémon but in small containers. However, devices like these became lost to the ages and their roles were subsequently supplanted by Heavy Balls in the modern world.

When a Pokémon is released from a Poké Ball, it will be accompanied by a distinctive sound effect and a bright light as it returns from its energy form and materialize nearby, often on the ground. This bright light has been shown to vary depending on the type of Ball in which the Pokémon is contained in the games, while it has always been shown to be white in the anime. Pokémon are recalled to their Poké Ball by holding up the Poké Ball with its button pointed at the Pokémon. A beam of red, white, and/or blue light will shoot from the button, converting the Pokémon back into energy and returning it to the Ball. The beam, however, has a limited range, and can be dodged by the Pokémon. If the beam hits a person, they will be stunned for a moment, but aside from that no ill effects will make themselves apparent. Releasing Pokémon from a Trainer's ownership, unlike normally sending the Pokémon out, will bathe the Pokémon in a blue glow, and the Poké Ball will no longer mark it, making it able to be caught by another Trainer's Poké Ball.

A Poké Ball can also be broken, which will release it from ownership, and if a Trainer has done so accidentally, it must somehow be fixed before the Pokémon can be recalled. In the manga, if a Poké Ball is broken before a Pokémon is sent out, then that particular Pokémon can't be used until their Poké Ball has been repaired. This happened several times in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, such as during {{adv|Red}}'s battle against {{adv|Giovanni}}, where the opening mechanism for the Poké Balls of Red's [[Saur|Venusaur]] and [[Gyara]]dos were damaged, preventing either of them from being used in the match.

Pokémon appear to be conscious while inside Poké Balls. Several Pokémon have shown the ability to leave and return to their Poké Balls at will, most notably among them [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]], [[Misty's Psyduck]], [[Ash's Oshawott]], and [[Brock's Croagunk]], which tend to do so in every episode they appear in. In ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett!]]'', many Pokémon belonging to [[Gary Oak]], as well as other Trainers, including Ash Ketchum, demonstrated the ability to prevent themselves from being sent from their Poké Balls, as they refused to fight against the Diglett, though this has not been demonstrated since. Pokémon have also shown to be able to hear orders given by their Trainer right before they are sent out.

Poké Balls are able to communicate with a Trainer's [[Pokédex]], as the system updates itself with information on newly-caught Pokémon, and keeps track of how many Pokémon the Trainer has with them. If a Trainer catches a new Pokémon with the full six already with them, the Pokédex will automatically send the newly-caught Pokémon in its Poké Ball to the [[Pokémon Storage System]] that the Trainer is using. As shown in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]'', a Pokémon caught by a Poké Ball is "marked" by it, and thus most Poké Balls thrown at it will have no effect aside from temporarily stunning it. In the games, as well as in ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]'', however, the Trainer of the Pokémon will block a Poké Ball thrown by another, though it is possible that this is more out of courtesy to their Pokémon than to prevent capture outright. In ''[[EP011|Charmander – The Stray Pokémon]]'', Ash was able to catch his {{AP|Charmander}} in a Poké Ball despite his previous ownership by [[Damian|another Trainer]], though it may have lost its "mark" when it abandoned its previous Trainer by refusing to return to its old Poké Ball. Earlier in the same episode, Ash failed to catch the same Charmander while it still held its loyalty, despite its weak condition.

Other wireless capabilities of Poké Balls are shown in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', as when the electricity of the city is down, {{mov|Rebecca}} claims that the "Poké Ball Management System" was no longer working without power. There has been no mention of any such system since.

Poké Balls are able to be decorated to no ill effect, with several Poké Balls that have been painted with special colors being seen in the anime. In the games, a [[Ball Capsule]] and [[seal]]s can release special effects when the Pokémon is sent out.

==Poké Ball accuracy==
In some scenarios, a Poké Ball can miss the wild Pokémon completely (in contrast to breaking if the Poké Ball does not successfully capture the Pokémon) or cannot be thrown:

* In [[Generation I]] games, it was possible for a ball to miss the Pokémon when the likelihood of catching the Pokémon in question was particularly low—rather than the ball throwing animation playing and the ball wiggling zero times, a message would come up stating "You missed the <sc>Pok</sc>é<sc>mon</sc>!".
* In Generation I as well as in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the {{OBP|ghost|literal}}s in [[Lavender Town]]'s [[Pokémon Tower]] would dodge any ball thrown at them unless they were unmasked by the [[Silph Scope]]. The [[Marowak (ghost)|Marowak ghost]] will dodge even if it is unmasked.
* A Poké Ball cannot be thrown during a wild [[Double Battle]] or [[Horde Encounter]] unless all wild Pokémon are defeated except one, with the game claiming "It's no good! It's impossible to aim unless there is only one Pokémon!" in Horde Encounters, and "It's no good! It's impossible to aim when there are two Pokémon!" in Double Battles. However, in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, it is possible to snag a [[Shadow Pokémon]] even if there are two on the opposing side of the field.
* In [[Generation V]], when encountering two wild Pokemon in [[dark grass]] (without the aid of an NPC partner), it is not possible to issue commands to a Pokémon during the same turn as throwing a Poké Ball (though it is still possible to throw a Poké Ball if one Pokémon is in the middle of a two-turn move).
* From {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} onward, it is not possible to use a Poké Ball on a Pokémon which is in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable state}} of a move (such as {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Dig}}).

==Types of Poké Balls==
[[File:PBR Battle Start.jpg|thumb|right|A Double Battle begins in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]]]
In the Pokémon games so far, there have been 26 different varieties of Poké Balls, all differing from each other in some effect, whether it be an increased ability to catch a Pokémon from the wild or an effect which occurs only after the Pokémon has been caught. From Generation III onward, each variety of the Poké Ball has a unique animation when they open to draw in a Pokémon and when a Pokémon is sent out, and the type of Poké Ball used to catch the Pokémon is preserved on its status screen.

Prior to Generation VI, all hatched Pokémon are in a standard Poké Ball. In [[Generation VI]], a [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] Pokémon will be in the same Poké Ball as its mother, unless its mother was in a Cherish Ball or Master Ball in which case the Pokémon will be in a Poké Ball; Pokémon bred from a male or genderless Pokémon and {{p|Ditto}} will hatch in a standard Poké Ball.

===Introduced in Generation I===
The following Poké Balls were introduced in {{game|Red and Green|s}}, and have appeared and been available in all games since then, with the exception of the Safari Ball, which is only available in Generations I, III, and IV. They were developed by [[Silph Co.]], with the development of the [[Master Ball]] factoring into the plot of the Generation I games and their remakes heavily.

===Introduced in Generation II===
The following Poké Balls were introduced in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. These Poké Balls were not available in [[Generation III]] or in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, but made their return in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. Seven of them are made from [[Apricorn]]s by [[Kurt]], while the only one that is not is seen by some to be a counterpart to the Safari Ball in that it is only used in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]] in [[National Park]]. All eight of these Poké Balls have the same animation as a normal Poké Ball when sending out or recalling a Pokémon, rather than the variety of colors and special effects the Poké Ball variants released in other generations have.

When a Pokémon in one of these Balls is used in a link battle in Generation IV, it will appear as an ordinary Poké Ball, regardless of if the link is made with a Johto or Sinnoh-based game. Using a Pokémon in one of these Balls in one of the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}} facilities will show it as it should appear during the battle, but as an ordinary Poké Ball if the battle is saved to the [[Vs. Recorder]] and played back. Trading a Pokémon in one of these Poké Ball variations into {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} or registering it in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] will cause it to display as a normal Poké Ball, though if the Pokémon is traded back into a Johto-based game or transferred forward into Generation V, it will regain its variant Ball.

In Generation IV, none of these Poké Balls can be held due to not existing in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

In Pokémon data, information for these Poké Balls on the status screen and in battle is stored in a separate location from the variants introduced in other generations, so that the Pokémon can be traded back to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum from HeartGold and SoulSilver and display an ordinary Poké Ball there (the data space for these balls being ignored in the earlier games).

===Introduced in Generation III===
The following Poké Balls were introduced in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. While the main four Poké Balls and the Safari Ball returned to central usage, these specialty Balls were only available at certain [[Poké Mart]]s in the Hoenn region, and the Luxury Ball only available via completion of certain quests in the games. Generally, they can be seen to be counterparts to Generation II's Apricorn Balls, which were not available in the Generation III games, with the Nest Ball and Level Ball, Net Ball and Lure Ball, and Luxury Ball and Friend Ball being very similar in effect to each other.

The Premier Ball is functionally identical to the standard Poké Ball; it is simply a premium (hence the name) given with the purchase of ten Poké Balls. Only one is given with each purchase of ten or more, so buying 20 or more Poké Balls still only yields one gift Premier Ball. To obtain multiple Premier Balls, the Poké Balls must be purchased in separate transactions of 10 at a time.

These Ball variants continued to be available in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, though most must be traded in from a Hoenn-based game, with only the Timer Ball and Repeat Ball available to be bought, and even then, only in {{OBP|Two Island|town}}. The Dive Ball's effect was altered, with it now having greater chance to catch Pokémon encountered on water rather than under it, as Hoenn-based games are the only ones where wild Pokémon can be encountered while using {{m|Dive}}. In Generation IV, all but the Dive Ball are readily available to be bought, though the Dive Ball can still be obtained through use of [[Pal Park]] and other special events. The Johto-based HeartGold and SoulSilver make the Timer, Repeat, and Luxury Balls hard to find once more, though the returning Apricorn Balls help to take their place. All of these Poké Balls can be purchased in Generation V. Additionally, the Timer Ball's effectiveness now increases much more quickly as the battle goes on.

Unlike the Poké Balls introduced in Generation I, these Poké Balls were developed by the [[Devon Corporation]].

===Introduced in Generation V===
Only one new Poké Ball was introduced in {{game|Black and White|s}}, though all Poké Balls of previous generations are programmed into the game, both as items and on the status screen. If the {{player}} cheats to get them into the game, the Apricorn Balls, Sport Ball, and Park Ball cannot be used to catch wild Pokémon, though the Safari Ball and Cherish Ball can. If a Pokémon is transferred to Generation V from an earlier generation with the [[Poké Transfer]], it will appear to have the same ball it was originally caught with.

In the [[Entralink|Entree Forest]], when a player "speaks" to a Pokémon, a Dream Ball appears in the player's Bag. As Poké Balls never fail in the Entree Forest and the Dream Ball can only be used there, the Dream Ball effectively never fails. However, any Poké Ball in the Bag can be used in the Entree Forest, not just the Dream Ball. Pokémon transferred from [[Pokémon Dream Radar]] are obtained in Dream Balls.

==In the anime==
===In the core series===
[[File:Ashball.png|thumb|220px|right|{{Ash}} pulling out a Poké Ball, preparing to catch a Pokémon]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the basic Poké Ball is the most commonly used of all varieties, with other varieties appearing either very few times or not at all. A vast majority of Pokémon are shown to be stored in regular Poké Balls, to the point that large collections of Poké Balls can be seen with no variation among them. Even [[Ash's Pikachu]], the most prominent Pokémon in the anime which spends all its time [[walking Pokémon|outside with Ash]], has a plain Poké Ball that differs from others only by the small yellow lightning bolt symbol on it, as seen in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''.

Despite this, the various other types of Poké Ball have been seen in the anime, usually to illustrate a special property about that particular ball. The lack of the different types is unsurprising, however, due to the fact that, when the anime was first created, the games themselves did not even keep track of the Poké Ball that a Pokémon was caught in, and thus, it made no difference in sending a Pokémon out.

The first time that a Poké Ball aside from the normal variation was seen was in [[EP035]], where Ash was given 30 Safari Balls in order to compete in the Safari Game. With these 30 Safari Balls, Ash attempted to catch various rare Pokémon; however, he only managed to capture an entire herd of {{AP|Tauros}}. They appeared in Safari Balls in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-Ké Corral]]''; however, whenever Ash uses one of his Tauros in a battle, it is sent out from a standard Poké Ball.

The [[GS Ball]] was the second of the variant Poké Balls to [[EP083|appear in the anime]], this time with a special purpose. This mysterious ball was unable to be opened by [[Professor Ivy]], and served as the reason for Ash's journeys to the [[Orange Archipelago]] (to pick it up) and [[Johto]] (to deliver it to [[Kurt]]), so that what was contained within it could be discovered. {{p|Celebi}} was long rumored to be related to the ball, something which the [[Pokémon Adventures]] and game canons verify, while [[Masamitsu Hidaka|a director of the anime]] confirmed that, had it not been insisted that {{mov|Celebi|Celebi|04}} appear in a central role in [[M04|the fourth movie]], the GS Ball arc would have concluded with Celebi being released from the ball and traveling with Ash and his friends.
[[File:Poke Ball Recent Capture.png|thumb|240px|left|A Poké Ball after catching a Pokémon in the anime]]
Also related to Kurt, as in the games, the first non-standard Poké Ball variants, the [[Apricorn]] balls, made an appearance in the anime, and several were given to the members of the main cast. All three members of the main cast received Fast Balls in ''[[EP143|Going Apricorn!]]'', with {{an|Brock}} using his to catch a {{TP|Brock|Pineco}} shortly after receiving it. In the [[EP144|next episode]], Brock received a Heavy Ball, while Ash and {{an|Misty}} received Lure Balls. While Brock's Heavy Ball and Ash and Misty's Fast Balls would remain unused (and have not been mentioned since), both Ash and Misty would use their Lure Balls to capture a {{AP|Totodile}} and {{TP|Misty|Corsola}}, respectively. Another Heavy Ball appeared in ''[[AG065|Gulpin It Down]]'', where it was used to capture a giant {{p|Gulpin}}, though this was not the one belonging to Brock.

The Master Ball itself has only appeared once as an actual Poké Ball, in ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]'', where it was used by [[Sullivan]] in a last resort attempt to catch a wild {{p|Whiscash}} called "[[Nero]]". Despite the fact that a Master Ball cannot be escaped from, the Whiscash ''swallowed'' the Master Ball, thus preventing capture, and disappeared back into the water. While not a Poké Ball itself, Misty owns a beach ball that is designed like the Master Ball, which can be seen in ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]'' and ''[[EP167|A Hot Water Battle]]''.
[[File:Ash Poké Ball.png|thumb|right|240px|Ash calling out a Pokémon]]
The Generation III specialty balls have only been seen in cameos, with only the Repeat Ball and Luxury Ball appearing, in the opening of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. These balls contained {{ga|Brendan}}'s {{p|Shiftry}} and {{p|Aggron}}, respectively.

The debut of most of the specialty balls, both from Generation III and IV, came in the ending [[Which One ~ Is It?]], which contained the first appearance of the Great Ball and Ultra Ball, as well as the first anime appearance of the Premier, Heal, Net, Dusk, Nest, Quick, Timer, and Dive Balls.

Many other Poké Balls have been shown in the anime; however, most of these are cosmetic alterations alone, such as Poké Balls with gold plating, diamond studded Poké Balls, and Poké Balls with special designs on them, usually to denote an organization.

Most notably, a broken Poké Ball, snapped in half at its rusted hinges, is kept by both {{Ash}} and {{Gary}}, symbolizing their rivalry.

In ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', it was shown that if a Trainer catches a Pokémon while they already have six on hand, it is automatically sent to the regional {{pkmn|professor}}. This was again demonstrated in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. ''[[BW018|Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest]]'' shows a major difference in what happens after a Pokémon is captured. Instead of being automatically sent to the regional Professor, the Poké Ball is sealed and the button becomes red. The Pokémon is kept inactive until it is switched out by another actively in the Trainer's party.

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Kanto}}

===In Pokémon Origins===
Besides the regular Poké Ball, the other Generation I variations of it were also seen during the [[Pokémon Origins]] mini-series. In ''[[PO03|File 3 - Giovanni]]'', it was shown that [[Giovanni]] kept his strongest Pokémon, {{p|Rhyhorn}} and {{p|Rhydon}}, within Ultra Balls. In ''[[PO04|File 4 - Charizard]]'', {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was seen catching an {{p|Arbok}} with a Great Ball and a {{p|Chansey}} with a Safari Ball. He also used Ultra Balls to capture the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}}.

The Master Ball only appeared in a demonstration in ''[[PO03|File 3 - Giovanni]]'', as it was still under development at the time. After [[Team Rocket]] was driven out of the [[Silph Co.]] building by Red, the development of the Master Ball was put on hold for a while.

Additionally, in Pokémon Origins, the sound effects and bright light used when a Trainer is catching, sending out, or recalling a Pokémon differ in comparison to the sound effects and lights that are used in the main Pokémon anime, more resembling the effects seen in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:Poké Ball EToP.png|thumb|right|A Poké Ball in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]]]
In the various [[Pokémon manga]], Poké Balls have been shown to appear differently, as an attempt to explain how a Trainer knows which Pokémon is in which ball, as most Pokémon manga series were, like the anime, developed at a time when the games could not keep track of the ball a Pokémon was contained in.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In the manga [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], the rules are more similar to the anime; however, Poké Balls are numbered on the outside, on the button, so that a Trainer knows which member of their team they are sending into battle. In The Electric Tale of Pikachu, Trainers must obtain a license before they are legally allowed to purchase Poké Balls.

It is also possible for a Pokémon to be placed inside a Poké Ball without it being owned by a Trainer. In ''[[ET11|Days of Gloom and Glory]]'', [[Meowzie]] steals a Poké Ball from a shop and puts her kitten in it so that it will not be hurt by a flood affecting the city.

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
In [[Magical Pokémon Journey]], the main characters generally do not capture Pokémon, rather, they befriend them. Although [[Almond]], one of the main characters, is known to be a [[Pokémon Trainer]], he is not actually depicted capturing or raising any Pokémon. In fact, in the bonus materials of {{Vol|Magical Pokémon Journey|2}}, in which the cast of the manga meet {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in a series of crossovers, it is revealed that [[Hazel]] and [[Coconut]] do not even know what Poké Balls are. When Ash and Misty explain that they are used to capture Pokémon, they both proceed to attempt to use them to capture Almond, as he is each of their love interest.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Yellow Seadra Poké Ball.png|thumb|left|{{adv|Yellow}}'s {{p|Seadra}}'s Poké Ball in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, the tops of Poké Balls are semitransparent, allowing the Pokémon inside, which is miniaturized, to be seen through the ball, while the Pokémon can likewise see out of the ball it is contained in. In this manga, unlike in the anime, Pokémon already captured can be recaught in another Poké Ball, as is seen when {{adv|Red}} recatches Misty's Gyarados (though {{adv|Blue}} states that catching a Pokémon that belongs to another is not possible in ''[[PS050|Lapras Lazily]]''). Like in the anime and games, specialty balls do exist, and {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}} received a Friend Ball and Heavy Ball, respectively. It has also been shown that unlike the games, Pokémon placed in their balls recover from status conditions; however, like in the games, they do not recover health points. Additionally, the three original types of Poké Ball are used to identify the Trainer's rank; most Trainers keep their Pokémon in Poké Balls, [[Gym Leader]]s use Great Balls, and [[Elite Four]] members and [[Frontier Brain]]s use Ultra Balls.

===In the Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All manga===
In [[Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All]], Poké Balls are depicted as solid, with no visual identification as to which Poké Ball is which. In ''[[GDZ15|Special Chapter - Get Pikachu!]]'', it is revealed that when [[Shu]] met {{TP|Shu|Pikachu}}, Pikachu's Poké Ball had been abandoned in a forest because it was defective and it was causing Pikachu's electricity to be released throughout the surrounding area.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
In [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]], Poké Balls are often shown as transparent to identify when a Pokémon is inside. They usually have their typical appearance from far away, suggesting that they may not always be transparent, or are only see-through from up close. Pokémon appear to be able to see the world outside of their Poké Balls, as shown in ''[[PM003|Bring Down the Powerful Opponent Onix!!]]'', when {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} sees [[Red's Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)|Pikachu]] inside his Poké Ball, and they talk to each other. In ''[[PM001|Introducing the Pokémon Clefairy!!]]'', when {{PPM|Green}} is choosing Charmander as his [[starter Pokémon]], he is shown to be able to pick up and lift Charmander directly from the Poké Ball without throwing it first.

==In the TCG==
[[File:Rocket Sneak Attack artwork.png|thumb|Ultra Ball]]
Several variants of Poké Ball have been released in card form in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], ranging from the standard variants found in the games and other media to variants specific to the TCG.

* The standard {{TCG ID|Jungle|Poké Ball|64}} card, which was the first released, debuted in the {{TCG|Jungle}} expansion and has since been featured in many others. It features a TCG-centric mechanic, requiring a {{TCG|coin}} flip to search the deck for a {{TCG|Pokémon}} to be put in the hand. Most of the Poké Ball variants, both adapted from the games and exclusive to the TCG, are similar to this, with several requiring coin flips to use their effect.
* The Ultra Ball can be seen in the artwork of {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Rocket's Sneak Attack|16}}, from the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} expansion. The 'H' on this Ultra Ball is derived from its Japanese name, ''Hyper Ball''. The [[Ultra Ball (Dark Explorers 102)|Ultra Ball]] itself would appear in [[Dark Explorers (TCG)|Dark Explorers]], with its effect requiring the player to discard 2 cards from the hand to search the deck for a Pokémon.
* The {{TCG ID|EX FireRed & LeafGreen|Great Ball|92}}, which first appeared in the {{TCG|EX FireRed & LeafGreen|TCG expansion}} coinciding with the {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|remakes}} of the [[Generation I]] games, is somewhat of an upgrade to the Poké Ball, and does not require the coin flip that the Poké Ball does, instead restricting the search to Basic Pokémon. Later, in {{TCG|Emerging Powers}}, {{TCG ID|Emerging Powers|Great Ball|93}}'s effect was changed to have the player search the top 7 cards of the deck for any one Pokémon card and put it in the hand.
* The [[Master Ball (Gym Challenge 116)|Master Ball]], first appearing in the {{TCG|Gym Challenge}} expansion, and in the games the most powerful of the Poké Balls, provides a vastly different effect than the standard. Rather than searching the entire deck, only the top seven cards may be searched. One {{TCG|Pokémon}} found in these seven can be put into the hand, while the rest must be shuffled back into the deck. In {{TCG|Plasma Blast}}, {{TCG ID|Plasma Blast|Master Ball|94}} was changed to an [[Ace Spec]] that allowed the player to search the entire deck for any one Pokémon.
* Debuting in the {{TCG|Skyridge}} expansion, the {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Lure Ball|128}} is different from the basic Poké Balls in that it draws from the {{TCG|discard pile}} rather than the deck. For each heads flipped, with a maximum of three, an {{TCG|Evolution card}} can be returned from the discard pile and put into the hand. It has not appeared since.
* Also debuting in Skyridge, the {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Friend Ball|126}}, another [[Apricorn]] Ball, has a unique effect entirely, allowing the user to search their deck for a Pokémon of the same {{TCG|type}} as one of the opponent's Pokémon, making it effective in decks that typically match up well against their own type. It also has not appeared since.
* The {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Fast Ball|124}} allows the player to go through their deck, turning over cards one at a time until they find the first evolution card, and then taking that into their hand, shuffling afterward. Like the other two Apricorn Balls, it debuted in Skyridge and has not appeared since.
* The {{TCG ID|Great Encounters|Premier Ball|101}}, debuting in the {{TCG|Great Encounters}} expansion, is special, much as in the games, and allows the player to search either the deck ''or'' the discard pile for a {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}} to put into their hand.
* The {{TCG ID|Stormfront|Luxury Ball|86}}, first found in the {{TCG|Stormfront}} expansion, is among the rarest of the Poké Ball varieties in the games, though its catch rate is the same as that of a normal Poké Ball. Likewise it is so with the TCG, allowing a non-{{TCG|Pokémon LV.X|LV.X}} Pokémon to be searched from the deck, but only if another Luxury Ball card is not in the discard pile.
* The {{TCG ID|Mysterious Treasures|Quick Ball|114}} released in the {{TCG|Mysterious Treasures}} expansion has a similar effect to the Fast Ball released in Skyridge, allowing the player to uncover cards from their deck until they find a Pokémon. An expansion of the Fast Ball's use, any Pokémon can be found, though this may prove an issue if the player is looking for an Evolution card specifically and finds a Basic Pokémon first, and vice versa.
* The {{TCG ID|Mysterious Treasures|Dusk Ball|110}}, also first found in Mysterious Treasures, features an effect somewhat opposite from the Master Ball's: Instead of the top seven cards being searched, only the bottom seven cards may be, and a Pokémon found there may be put into the player's hand.
* The {{TCG ID|Next Destinies|Heavy Ball|88}}, first found in {{TCG|Next Destinies}}, allows the player to search through their deck for a Pokémon who has a retreat cost of 3 or more and put it in their hand, whereas the {{TCG ID|Next Destinies|Level Ball|89}}, also found in {{TCG|Next Destinies}}, allows them to do the same with a Pokémon that has 90 HP or less.

==In the Super Smash Bros. series==
The Pokémon series is represented in the {{sbw|Super Smash Bros. series}} by a Poké Ball icon. The first two games show the Poké Ball with both halves and the center filled in, while the third and fourth goes with Generation IV's redesigned icon with only the top half filled in.

[[File:Poké Ball SSBB.png|thumb|right|Render of a Poké Ball from [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
Poké Balls in their base design are an item in the Super Smash Bros. series. First appearing in the original game, they can be picked up and thrown by the characters to do damage, and, on striking the ground, release a random Pokémon. In the original, the Pokémon that can be released are {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Koffing}}, {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, or {{p|Starmie}}. In [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]], the listing changes, and now the Pokémon released include Generation II Pokémon, with {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Weezing}}, {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Staryu}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Marill}}, {{p|Unown}}, {{p|Wobbuffet}}, {{p|Scizor}}, {{p|Porygon2}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, or {{p|Celebi}} appearing. {{p|Ditto}} was also planned to appear, acting as a clone of the character who released it for a short while, but was dummied out of the final game and can only be accessed through [[cheating]], where it does nothing. In the third installment, [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]] Pokémon were added, and now {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Staryu}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Wobbuffet}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Torchic}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Gulpin}}, {{p|Metagross}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Piplup}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, {{p|Munchlax}}, {{p|Weavile}}, or {{p|Manaphy}} can be released from a Poké Ball that is thrown. Fourth installment adds [[Generation V]] and [[Generation VI]] Pokémon, with the 3DS version having {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Goldeen}}, {{p|Staryu}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Metagross}}, {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Abomasnow}}, {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Oshawott}}, {{p|Zoroark}}, {{p|Kyurem}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, {{p|Genesect}}, {{p|Chespin}}, {{p|Fennekin}}, {{p|Fletchling}}, {{p|Spewpa}}, {{p|Gogoat}}, {{p|Swirlix}}, {{p|Inkay}}, {{p|Dedenne}} and {{p|Xerneas}}

Also, in the Subspace Emissary, Pokémon Trainer is shown to push the button on the Poké Ball to send out the Pokémon; this has not been shown in the anime.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] Trophy information===
''These balls are used to catch and contain wild Pokémon. Most Pokémon must be weakened in some way before they can be caught, but once they're inside a Poké Ball, they enjoy their new home, since Poké Balls contain an environment specially designed for Pokémon comfort. [[Master Ball]]s are the strongest type.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] Trophy information===
''"An item used for capturing Pokémon and calling them out into battle. Pokémon live in these items which despite appearances, actually contain a wide, comfortable Pokémon-friendly world inside them. In Super Smash Bros., Pokémon give temporary support to who calls them out. You never know which you will get, but some are devastatingly powerful."''

'''NA''': ''An item used to call out different Pokémon. Which Pokémon emerges is a mystery, but it will aid whoever threw the Poké Ball. Some of the Pokémon contained inside are extremely powerful and will really intensify the battle. It's definitely worth beating your opponents to these!''

'''PAL''': ''A ball holding one of any umber of Pokémon just waiting to burst out and help you in battle. Which kind will it be? Well, that's a surprise, but whichever one it is, it'll definitely up the intensity of the battle! If you see one, make sure you're the one to grab it!''

==Other variants==
The following Poké Ball variants are found outside of the standard games. They are often very unusual compared to the 26 types found in the games, and it is sometimes questionable whether or not they even qualify as Poké Balls. Many have separate articles, where their unique properties are described in greater detail.

===In the games===
* [[Pester Ball]]s: These objects, which appear similar to Poké Balls at a glance, are not used to catch Pokémon, and instead will release a Pokémon repellent on contact. They are only found in {{g|Snap}}.
* The [[GS Ball]] is an event item that appears only in {{game|Crystal}}, where it was part of a giveaway on the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]], much as event items are given out in [[Generation IV]] games over the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. It was not used to catch any Pokémon, and was placed in the [[key items]] pocket. If given to [[Kurt]] for inspection, it will activate an event where the player can catch a {{p|Celebi}} in [[Ilex Forest]].
* A [[Snag Ball]] is a Poké Ball variant that has been "unlocked" by the Snag Machine, allowing it to [[snagging|snag]] an already-[[caught Pokémon]] during a {{pkmn|battle}}. While it is ''able'' to be used on any Pokémon, [[Rui]] will only allow [[Wes]] to use it on [[Shadow Pokémon]], while [[Michael]]'s Aura Reader will render the Snag Machine inoperable when a Pokémon other than a Shadow Pokémon is targeted.
* When transferring Pokémon via [[Poké Transfer]], a blue-colored Poké Ball is used to catch the Pokémon in the mingame. They are shot using a bow.
* Typing Balls are used in [[Learn with Pokémon: Typing Adventure]]. They are thrown after one successfully types a Pokémon's name. It has the overall design like that of a normal Poké Ball, only having an additional vertical line at the bottom, resembling the letter "T".
* In the [[Timegate Traveler Series]] featured in [[Pokéstar Studios]], the future is ruled by {{type|Bug}} Pokémon that capture wild humans in Human Balls (Japanese: '''ヒューマンボール''' ''Human Ball'') instead of the other way around.

===In the anime===
* A green Poké Ball appeared in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. Interestingly, the cover of the book {{OBP|Grass Pokédex|book}} greatly resembles this Poké Ball, and is labeled as a Safari Ball.
** In addition to this, the artwork of {{ga|Brendan}}, in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, features Brendan holding a green Poké Ball.
* Several objects were used to contain and control Pokémon before Poké Balls themselves were developed. Large monumental objects have been shown several times in episodes to be containers for large ancient Pokémon, as seen most notably in ''[[EP072|The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]''. Smaller objects have also been used, such as the staff belonging to [[Sir Aaron]], which contained his partner, {{mov|Lucario|Lucario|8}}, until {{Ash}} released it in the current era. Special armor developed by [[Marcus]] was used to control Pokémon in ancient [[Michina Town]], though it did not directly ''contain'' the Pokémon; unlike other methods of using Pokémon, these Pokémon were enslaved, instead of befriended, and they turned against him the moment the armor was broken.
* {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}} had a collection of strange Poké Balls in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', which incorporated an eye into their design, and were used primarily to capture Pokémon to be cloned. These balls had no trouble catching Pokémon which were already captured—even if they were already inside of Poké Balls. They have been called by several names by fans, such as "Mewtwo Balls" and "Clone Balls".
* [[Molly Hale]], whose imagination caused the power of the {{mov|Unown|Unown|3}} to change the world around them, was able to use strange, crystalline Poké Balls when she challenged {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]''. The Pokémon sent from these appeared normally, but dissolved into crystal, rather than being recalled. These crystal Poké Balls only appeared when used by her imagined older selves, and do not appear to actually exist.
* A special variant of Poké Ball, the Lake Ball, was used during the [[Seaking Catching Day|Seaking Catching Competition]] in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''; this is viewed by many to be similar to the Sport Ball used in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]]. They appear as blue and white Poké Balls, with a fish pattern around the edge, and a yellow arrow on the top and bottom of the ball. They don't shake after capture, implying an automatic catch.
* Older Poké Balls have also appeared in the anime, specifically the one carried by [[Sam|Sammy]] in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'', which was colored differently, and it had a knob that needed to be twisted before the Pokémon inside could be sent out. While it is unknown how these types were manufactured, it is likely that they were made by hand using Apricorns, prior to the standardization and mass production of modern-day Poké Balls.
* The [[Iron-Masked Marauder]], an agent of [[Team Rocket]], used special [[Dark Ball]]s that corrupted Pokémon caught inside them and made them into mindless servants of the Trainer, as well as raising their power significantly. Multiple Pokémon were caught in these Poké Balls, including the legendary {{mov|Celebi|Celebi|4}} and a powerful {{p|Tyranitar}}. They seem capable of catching any Pokémon without fail.
* As in the games, the [[GS Ball]] appeared in the anime, and was the primary motivation for Ash's trip to the [[Orange Archipelago]], where he would compete in his second Pokémon League. It also served as the catalyst for his journey to [[Johto]], as he needed to deliver the ball to [[Kurt]]. Former director [[Masamitsu Hidaka]] revealed that a shelved storyline, that would have concluded the GS Ball's arc, involved a {{p|Celebi}} that would have traveled with Ash and his friends through at least part of Johto. The storyline was viewed as redundant after the decision was made to introduce Celebi in the fourth movie instead.
* In ''[[AG104|Claydol, Big and Tall]]'', the "Stone Ball", a huge Poké Ball made of stone used to keep an evil, giant {{p|Claydol}} that levied destruction everywhere. This Poké Ball is about the size of a 2-story house.
* In ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'', a specially marked Poké Ball, called the "Fishing Poké Ball", was used in the fake fishing contest set up by {{TRT}}. This Poké Ball highly resembled the regular red and white Poké Ball, except that it had a dark fish mark on its red part.

===In the manga===
====In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga====
* In ''[[ET04|Haunting My Dreams]]'', a giant Poké Ball named the Enormo Poké Ball-X1 (Japanese: '''ビッグモンスターボールX1''' ''Big Monster Ball-X1'') or EPB-X1 for short, was created to capture the gigantic {{p|Haunter}}, [[Black Fog]]. It was destroyed when the Black Fog used {{m|Explosion}} to free itself after being captured.

====In the Pokémon Adventures manga====
In addition to various Poké Balls introduced in the games, Pokémon Adventures also has several Trainers modifying their Poké Balls to suit their fighting styles.

* [[Bruno]] has modified his Poké Balls so that they are fitted onto the ends of his {{wp|Nunchaku|nunchucks}}. By swinging them quickly and throwing the nunchuck forward, Bruno can have his Pokémon quickly attack his opponent, giving him the advantage.
* [[Koga]] and his daughter [[Janine]] modified their Poké Balls into {{wp|shuriken}} to fit their ninja theme. In addition to being used as weapons, they can also be used to have their Pokémon pop up from different locations to surprise the opponent or to hold items to help an ally.
* [[Bugsy]] had [[Kurt]] modify his butterfly net into something he calls a Capture Net. His net has a Poké Ball nested into the middle of it. The bag of the net is made of the same material of the inside of a Poké Ball. Once a Pokémon is covered in the bag, they will automatically be sucked into the Poké Ball.
* [[Falkner]] has modified his Poké Balls into boomerangs using the feathers of his {{p|Skarmory}}. Because of Skarmory's feathers being transparent, they have the tendency to turn invisible, confusing enemies when Falkner throws them in random directions only for them to turn around and go straight for them.
* [[Erika]] modified her Poké Balls to be at the end of her arrows.

===In the TCG===
* The {{TCG ID|Expedition|Dual Ball|139}} is merely two Poké Balls together, and has a similar effect to using two plain Poké Ball cards, requiring two coin flips to search for up to two Pokémon, depending on how many heads appear.
* The {{TCG ID|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua|Team Magma Ball|80}} is [[Team Magma]]'s Poké Ball variant, found only in the {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} expansion. It works similarly to a Poké Ball, however, it only can be used to find Team Magma's Pokémon, and will still allow a player to find a Pokémon, though only a {{TCG|Basic Pokémon|Basic one}}, if the coin flip results in tails.
* The {{TCG ID|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua|Team Aqua Ball|75}} is [[Team Aqua]]'s Poké Ball variant, also found only in the {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} expansion. It works ''exactly'' the same as the Team Magma Ball, with the exception that it can only search out Team Aqua's Pokémon instead.
* The {{TCG ID|EX Team Rocket Returns|Rocket's Poké Ball|89}} is the [[Team Rocket]] variation on the Poké Ball, found in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion. No coin flip is required, and it simply allows the player to search for a {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}.
* The {{TCG ID|Plasma Freeze|Team Plasma Ball|105}} is the Team Plasma variant of the Poké Ball, found in the {{TCG|Plasma Freeze}} expansion. It allows the user to search for a Team Plasma Pokémon without a coin flip required.

==Item balls==
{{main|Item#Obtaining items|Item → Obtaining items}}
[[File:Itemball.png|thumb|200px|left|{{ga|Red}} finds an item ball on {{rt|2|Kanto}}]]
[[File:Rice Ball Poké Ball.png|right|200px|thumb|Ash catches a [[rice ball]] thrown by a wild {{p|Mankey}}]]
In both the anime and games, it has been shown that [[item]]s can be contained in Poké Balls, apparently able to be captured in much the same way as a Pokémon. The anime has used this as a gag on several occasions, most notably in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', where {{Ash}} accidentally catches a rice ball when he throws a Poké Ball in an attempt to catch a wild Mankey.

Items contained in Poké Balls have been present from the very first games, with many items that are found on the field being found in Poké Balls in conspicuous locations. These items are sometimes important, and usually will be among the required items for pickup along the way. Sometimes, even Poké Ball variants can be found in item balls, though it may be that the item ball itself is supposed to represent the ball that is found. Many other items, however, are hidden, and are not in item balls, instead being directly on the field, and can be found more easily using an Itemfinder or [[Dowsing Machine]].

{{p|Voltorb}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Foongus}}, and {{p|Amoonguss}} often appear as item balls in the overworld, but attack when interacted with except the Foongus in [[Accumula Town]].

====Generation V====
The Apricorn Poké Balls and the Sport Ball, while programmed into the game, cannot be used to catch Pokémon and can be seen only in the Pokémon summary screen or when sending out a Pokémon. Sprites seen below are at full size as they are seen as they are when player's Pokémon is sent out after a switch.

==Trivia==
* While any Pokémon species can be caught by any Poké Ball, due to Pokémon distribution, no Pokémon species can legitimately be in all of the 26 in-game Poké Ball variants. The Pokémon that come the closest are the {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Venonat}} families, as they are found in the wild in all five generations that introduced Poké Balls, and can be obtained in the [[Pokémon Dream World]], a [[Safari Zone]] that allows the player to use Safari Balls, the [[Bug Catching Contest]] and the [[Pal Park]]; the only Ball they cannot be legitimately contained in is the Cherish Ball, as they have not been given out as an event Pokémon during Generation IV, V, or VI.
* In {{g|Pinball}}, the Poké Balls serve as the balls in the machine; they can be used to capture Pokémon and are upgraded depending on the multiplier bonus at the time.
* Many of the types of Poké Balls introduced in [[Generation III]] function similarly to those introduced in [[Generation II]]: the Nest Ball, like the Level Ball, is better if used on Pokémon of lower levels, the Net and Dive Balls are both useful against Pokémon found while in the water, much like the Lure Ball, and the Luxury Ball raises a Pokémon's [[friendship]] quickly, similarly to a Friend Ball. Excluding the Sport Ball, which many see as a parallel to the Safari Ball (which made its return in Generation III), the specialty Balls made by the Devon Corporation in Hoenn number seven, the same amount as the Apricorn Balls made by Kurt.
* In Generation II, the Park Ball's name is written as one word on the catch screen menu in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]], rather than as two separate words, as the rest of the Poké Balls are. However, it will appear spelled correctly in the [[Bag]] if obtained illegitimately there.
* In some early artwork for {{game|Red and Green|s}}, Poké Balls are shown on the ground in two pieces while the Pokémon are in battle, rather than in the more familiar hinged form they take now. This may be a carryover from when Pokémon was known as Capsule Monsters, as the Poké Ball sprites in Generation I also do not show the button on the ball. In [[Generation II]], Poké Balls split in half when capturing a Pokémon as part of their animation, while the anime had been using the hinge style since the very first episode.
* Poké Balls are inspired by the capsules for {{wp|gashapon}} machines, which contain small, handheld toys.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver and the {{Trading Card Game}}, Lure Balls are shown to have a green outer coloring; however, in official artwork and the anime, they are shown to have a blue outer coloring.
** However, in Generation V, the Lure Ball has both its Bag sprite, status screen sprite, and battle animation altered to the official blue color.
** Similarly, the Fast Ball is shown to be red in official art; however, it is orange in its Bag and status screen sprites, and only appears red in battle in Generation V.
* Item description data for the Safari Ball in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and {{2v2|Black|White}} is unchanged from {{v2|Platinum}}, hence its description still states that it can only be used within the [[Great Marsh]].
* While most Poké Balls cannot capture Pokémon that have already been caught, there are some types that can easily catch a Pokémon that already is owned. These are usually rare or use-restricted balls.
** The [[Generation IV]] Park Ball, which is used to capture Pokémon migrated from a Generation III game to a Generation IV game, is one of these. It reverts to the original ball used to catch the migrated Pokémon in the Summary screen.
** In the anime, Mewtwo's "Mewtwo Balls", seen only in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', can catch any Pokémon despite being owned. These Balls have been shown to even catch owned Pokémon even when inside of their Poké Balls. After the Pokémon's DNA is extracted through Mewtwo's cloning device, "Mewtwo Balls" automatically release the caught Pokémon.
** [[Snag Ball]]s, exclusive to {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD}}, are used for catching [[Shadow Pokémon]], all of which are already owned.
* While the Apricorn Balls and the Sport Ball exist in the internal data of the [[Generation V]] games, they are completely unobtainable. If they are illegitimately obtained into the Bag, they cannot be held by a Pokémon, much as in HeartGold and SoulSilver, and will not be recognized by the game as Poké Balls for in-battle use. Despite this, a Pokémon caught in one of these Poké Balls in HeartGold and SoulSilver will retain the Ball in Generation V.
** The sprite color of the Lure Ball was altered in Pokémon Black and White, changing its base color to a light blue color as opposed to the green it had in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
** The Moon Ball, while it returns in HeartGold and SoulSilver and appears in the internal data of the Generation V games, cannot legitimately contain Pokémon in the {{p|Skitty}} and {{p|Munna}} families, even though both evolve with the Moon Stone. This is due to their unavailability in the wild in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
* In Generation II, after catching a Pokémon, the Poké Ball's color palette changes to that of the Pokémon that was just caught. It then changes back to normal thereafter.
* Generations II and III introduced more types of Poké Balls than any other generation, with seven each. Generation VI introduced the fewest: zero.
* The Safari Ball has a catching animation programmed into Black and White despite not being legitimately able to be used, as there is no Safari Zone.
* Both the Safari Ball and Generation II Park Ball appeared in the anime prior to sprites being introduced for items in the games, in [[EP035]] and ''[[EP161|The Bug Stops Here]]'', respectively. In these appearances, their designs were vastly different from their later-introduced in-game sprites.
* In [[Generation V]], {{m|Dive}} regained its [[field move]] status. However, since there are no wild Pokémon underwater in [[Unova]], the Dive Ball retained its new effect that boosts its catch rate while {{m|Surf}}ing or [[fishing]].
* {{p|Surskit}} is {{2t|Water|Bug}}-type, the two types that improve the Net Ball's odds of capture. However, it does not get an increased bonus for being both types.
* When the player uses a Master Ball in Generation II, stars appear and a sound effect is played before the ball closes and captures the Pokémon.
** A similar effect would later be used in subsequent generations for all Poké Ball captures (regardless of the variety of Poké Ball used), beginning with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* Starting in [[Generation III]], all Poké Ball types have a special effect that appears whenever the ball is opened. These special effects also can be seen in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. It is not until [[Generation IV]] that customizable special effects are available through [[Seal]]s.
* Although the Hyper Ball was renamed the Ultra Ball in the English versions of the games, its design still incorporates a stylized H on the top half.
* In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], the Great Ball is twice as effective as the Poké Ball.

Memory Link

2015-05-23T04:05:05Z

Mastication clover:

'''Memory Link''' (Japanese: '''おもいでリンク''' ''Memory Link'') is a feature in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]. Memory Link allows players to sync either of the original {{2v2|Black|White}} games with Black 2 and White 2 via [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] or DS Wireless Communications. With this feature, the player can access new game features and interactions in Black 2 and White 2. The player will need to progress their Pokémon Black or White game to specific points in the main story in order to unlock certain flashbacks via the Memory Link.

==Events==
There are several events that take place via Memory Link.
===Flashbacks===
Certain [[Non-player character|NPCs]] will reflect on the past when spoken to after Memory Link has been activated. These memories will explain some of the events that happen in the two year gap that led to the current Unova. Here is a list of the NPCs' flashbacks that occur within the game via Memory Link, how to unlock them and their locations:

====A Triple Team====
[[File:A Triple Team flashback.png|thumb|A Triple Team flashback]]
''A Triple Team'' (Japanese: '''さんにんそろって''' ''The Trio Gathered'')
* Location: Inside the [[Striaton City]] [[Striaton Gym|restaurant]]
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the Trio Badge in Black and White
* Memory: Discover why the [[Striaton Gym]] [[Gym Leader|Leader]]s abdicated their position.
=====Quotes=====
:''Cilan: Chili, are you listening to me? We have to study hard and become full-fledged Gym Leaders as soon as possible ...
:''Chili: About that. If we had gone to N's Castle a year ago, the Seven Sages and the Shadow Triad wouldn't have escaped! Then, nobody would say something like "Three of you together make..."
:''Cress: I guess you're right.
:''Cilan: You think so? But it isn't that big of a deal. We may not have made it in time, but Team Plasma is still gone.
:''Chili: Argh! It's because you say things like that. That's why people treat us like a joke! Like it takes all three of us together to make one great Trainer!
:''Cress: You're overthinking it, but I can't say the possibility is zero.
:''Cilan: Come on, you two... Don't you think it's a bit strange to get recognition and respect as Gym Leaders just for beating bad guys?
:''Chili: I understand what you're saying. But if things go on like this, nothing will ever change. Even if we train, the other Gym Leaders will become that much stronger as well.
:*Shadow Triad member appears
:''???: Then... We'll battle you.
:*Other two Shadow Triad members appear. "!" above Cress and Chili. "?" above Cilan.
:''Cress: Based on your appearance, you must be the Shadow Triad. But why are you here?
:''Shadow Triad: We came on a whim... To vent... To pass time... It doesn't matter.
:''Chili: Three on three! The first one to beat them is the strongest among us!
:*Battle commences
:''Shadow Triad: Too easy...
:''Shadow Triad: These three aren't worth worrying about. We must focus on the other Gym Leaders so that next time they won't get in our way...
:''Shadow Triad: Well... Lord Ghetsis is waiting. We must catch that Pokémon.
:*Shadow Triad depart
:''Chili: C'mon! What was that? Come back here and say that again!
:''Cilan: I mean... They were overwhelmingly strong.
:''Cress: We have to admit it. The three Leaders of Striaton City make one full-fledged Trainer.
:''Cilan: You're right. Chili. Cress. I think as long as the three of us act like the Gym Leaders we are now, nothing will ever change.
:''Chili: I didn't think you would be the first to say that.
:''Cress: Of course, I, Cress, was thinking about that, too.
:''Cilan: All right. Let's resign as Gym Leaders and start our training over from the ground up. Then, I'm sure one of us will become a Trainer everyone recognizes as great.
:''Chili: We're triplets. What we think is the same. So we just have to become as strong as each other, and then we can be Gym Leaders together again!
:''Cress: OK. So as for the replacement Gym Leader...
{{-}}

====Different Bones and Dreams====
[[File:Different Bones and Dreams flashback.png|thumb|Different Bones and Dreams flashback]]
''Different Bones and Dreams'' (Japanese: '''それぞれのホネとユメ''' ''Respective Bones and Dreams'')
* Location: Inside the {{DL|Nacrene City|Nacrene Museum}}
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Quake}} in Black and White
* Memory: See [[Burgh]] come to Lenora and talk about his artist's block. [[Clay]] also reveals his incentive for building [[Clay Tunnel]].
=====Quotes=====
:''Lenora: Why hello, Burgh. What's up? Suffering from artist's block again?
:''Burgh: Hmm... Bones, perhaps...
:''Lenora: Bones...? This is a museum, so of course we have bones. What are you looking for? You next motif?
:''Burgh: Maybe... Or maybe not... Many Bug-type Pokémon have hard coverings, right? Their so-called exoskeletons. So I don't quite understand bones. Not at all, actually.
:''Lenora: So, did you think you would understand something about bones if you came here? Sure thing! Make yourself at home! If you'd like, I can have my husband explain them to you.
:''Burgh: Hmm... Well, for starters, what do bones mean to you?
:''Lenora: When I was little, my dad worked in a mine, and he would always bring home bones he dug up. I was just a child, but I was brought under the spell of bones. What did the bones look like when they were part of a living being? Why are they shaped the way they are? Things like that captivated me.
:''Burgh: Oohhh... I kind of understand. I'm also fascinated by the functional, efficient designs of Bug-type Pokémon, such as the shape of their legs.
:''???: Hey there! What's everyone all gathered up for?
:*Clay approaches.
:''Burgh: What brings you here?
:''Clay: Found a Fossil in Twist Mountain. I came to have Lenora look at it and see if ya wanted to keep it here or somethin'.
:''Burgh: Clay. What do bones mean to you?
:''Clay: Hmm? Well now... No matter who ya are or when ya die, bones are all that'll be left of ya. When ya think about it, it's amazin'. Even if ya die, ya can make money! Some Fossils are worth a lot, ya know!
:''Lenora: I can't tell if you're kidding, but of course you would think that way. Burgh is trying hard to think about what bones mean to him. Don't be so flippant! So what kind of Fossil have you got there? Let me see.
:''Clay: Here ya go! Whaddaya think? It's gotta be worth a mint as a specimen or as a collectible! Which is it?
:''Lenora: Well, I mean thus in a good way, but it's an ordinary Fossil. If it isn't worth much as a specimen, you can't sell it for much. But I'm curious about the soil attached to the Fossil...
:''Burgh: What do you mean?
:''Lenora: It's a very subtle, but it's a bit different from the soil I usually see from Twist Mountain.
:''Clay: That so? Guess my Twist Mountain still has unlimited potential! All right! I'll keep on diggin' my Clay Tunnel! Here, Burgh! That plain ol' Fossil's yours! Have a look at it and think about what bones mean to ya.
:''Burgh: Thank you, Lenora. I guess it's OK that I have my own perspective on what bones mean to me, right?
:''Lenora: Why not? You, me, Clay... We all have a different way of thinking about what bones mean to us. It would be kind of creepy if we all felt the exact same way, right? Anyways, I feel sorry for this Fossil. It's just resting, minding its own business, and everyone is saying this and that about it.
:''Burgh: I know. I'll thank this Fossil by using it as a motif for one of my works. See you, Lenora.

====Hearts' Desire====
[[File:Hearts' Desire flashback.png|thumb|Hearts' Desire flashback]]
''Hearts' Desire'' (Japanese: '''もとめるココロ''' ''Searching Hearts'')
* Location: Inside the [[Icirrus Gym]].
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Freeze}} in Black and White
* Memory: See Brycen telling [[Alder]] he wishes to resign as Gym Leader. Alder also declares that he will resign as Champion.
=====Quotes=====
:''Alder: I see!
:''Brycen: Yes.
:''Alder: Mmmh!
:''Brycen: Well then...
:''Alder: Looking forward to it.
:''???: (shouts) Sensei! You called?
:''Alder: You're looking well!
:*Marshal approaches in a hurry
:''Marshal: Hey, I heard you're going back to acting!
:''Brycen: Indeed! Team Plasma's actions stirred the hearts of the public. People even worry about how to interact with Pokémon. Of course, it's good to think about that relationship, but still...
:''Alder: Even if you're told to find an answer on your own... It's not exactly an easy thing to do now is it?
:''Brycen: That's why... If people can see my bond with my Pokémon when they're watching my movies, it might ease their worries... That was my reasoning...
:''Marshal: Oh! I get it now! Can't communicate that just by holing up in the Gym and talking to challengers. But, are you gonna be all right? What if you get hurt during filming again?
:''Alder: Marshal... Brycen has already decided. Sometimes worrying can destroy potential.
:''Brycen: I'm fine. I have no doubts about my decision. Also, I appreciate Marshal's concern. I was young... I thought I could do any kind of action scene. So I would put myself in unnecessary danger. I thought this bravery was my value as a person. So... Instead of trying to communicate something through my acting, I simply sought amazing action. That was how I got hurt.
:''Marshal: I think I understand. If you seek strength for its own sake, the reason why you wanted it in the first place becomes vague. And you end up desiring victory and nothing else.
:''Alder: That's why I've also made an important decision. I'm going to resign as Champion! We in particular need to take another look at what it means to live together with Pokémon. The world at large is still shaken by uncertainty. So I have to show everyone a new hope.
:''Marshal: Well, if that's what you've decided, Sensei. Even if I argue, that won't change your decision, will it?
:''Alder: You've grown so much since you sought me out and asked to be my pupil. Could that be it? Did becoming part of the Elite Four help you grow up in its own way?
:''Marshal: I thought that if I were strong, my Pokémon would become stronger. Maybe I grew up because my Pokémon taught me that this isn't always the case... Well then, will you spar with me?
:''Brycen: I will observe.
:''Alder: Thank you. I want to be sure my Pokémon are in top condition to challenge the Trainer who will become the next Champion. (shouts) To strength!
:''Marshal: (shouts) To Pokémon!

====A New Light====
[[File:A New Light flashback.png|thumb|A New Light flashback]]
''A New Light'' (Japanese: '''あらたなひかり''' ''A New Light'')
* Location: Outside Drayden's House in [[Opelucid City]]
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Legend}} in Black and White
* Memory: Learn how [[Iris]] became the current {{pkmn|Champion}} of [[Unova]].
=====Quotes=====
:''Iris: Yay! I did it! Haxorus, thank you! I won because of you!
:''Drayden: Well done, Iris.
:''Iris: What did you want to talk to me about, Grandpa?
:''Drayden: Ah yes... I was thinking about the past. I traveled all over the world looking for a successor. I even went to remote places such as the Village of Dragons. That's where I met you, Iris.
:''Iris: Yep! I was the strongest!
:''Drayden: Yes. I was surprised. You were one with your Pokémon and battling with so much joy. Just watching you made me smile. Your opponents felt disappointed by their defeat, but at the same time they enjoyed the battle. It was completely natural for me to decide I wanted to make you my successor.
:''Iris: I'm so glad I came to Unova! There are many different people and so many different Pokémon! And you know what... In the Village of Dragons, people take living alongside Pokémon for granted. I was surprised some people in Unova didn't think that way!
:''Drayden: I found your reactions to be a breath of fresh air. And as a condition to leave the [[Village of Dragons]], you wanted to broaden your experiences and become the Champion... So as I promised, I've been training you as a Trainer and as a Gym Leader. An order directly from Alder came as I was training you.
:''Iris: Alder was smiling, though.
:''Drayden: He lost to N and retained himself. He asked me to help him with his special training, but it was ghastly. He wanted to become an immense obstacle for you, the new Champion... For that alone, he pushed himself incredibly hard.
:''Iris: Alder was really, really, strong! And even when I felt a bit weak, he encouraged us! He said that even when their backs are against the wall, my Pokémon have an intense look in their eyes. So, that's why I won, but I feel like I still have a lot to learn.
:''Drayden: Don't forget that feeling. And now, if I may change the subject... When you came to Opelucid City, I gave you those clothes, right? You're the Champion, now. It's all right to dress up a little.
:''Iris: Are these new clothes? OK. I'll change into them right now!
:*Iris spins and changes clothes
:''Iris: Wooow! It's such a flowing dress!
:''Drayden: What is important is your mental preparation as the Champion, Iris. When I was little, [[Poké Ball]]s didn't exist yet. Sometimes Pokémon would run away from awful Trainers who didn't try to understand them.
:''Iris: But you were fine, right? I can tell! Your Haxorus loves you very much! I've already decided! I know what kind of Champion I will be! There's a [[Sinnoh myths#Sinnoh Region's Mythology|myth in Sinnoh that says the reason why Pokémon jump out is because they want to thank people]]. I'm sure that we and Pokémon have helped each other and enriched the world since ancient times. These memories have been engraved in each Pokémon's heart! So, I want Pokémon and people to get closer and closer! As the Champion, I want to tell that to everybody!
:''Drayden: Good! If anyone can do it, you can.

''Taking it to The Next Level'' (Japanese: '''ついきゅうハイセンス!!''' ''Pursuing the High Sense!!'')
* Location: In front of the [[Mistralton Gym]]
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Jet}} in Black and White
* Memory: [[Elesa]] talks to [[Skyla]] about her image.
=====Quotes=====
:''Elesa: Skyla, can I ask you a favor?
:''Skyla: Sure, what's up?
:''Elesa: I've decided I need a PR makeover! I wanted to try out my new ideas with you, Skyla!
:''Skyla: A PR makeover?
:''Elesa: That's right! Here's the thing. I make what everyone thinks is cool into a reality, right? Well, I get to do what I want to do, and while being a model may be difficult, most importantly, it's fun! But the hard parts are really hard. I mean, everyone judges me simply based on my appearance. People say that I'm reserved, and that I don't look like the type who would tell jokes!
:''Skyla: ...
:''Elesa: So, I've been thinking about it constantly since then! A sophisticated joke! How should I put it... My looks suggest that I'm not a lot of fun. But I'll tear down that mistaken image with my own hands! I'll say something silly and give someone an opportunity to call me out, so we can all have a good laugh!
:''Skyla: Uh... OK...
:''Elesa: OK, get a load of this! Throw that misbehaving Klink in the clink!
:''Elesa: Cofagrigus is so cool! Don't you *cough* agree, Gus?
:''Elesa: You bought those Fossils from Clay? Did you buy them on Clay-away?
:''Skyla: ...
:''Skyla: Elesa... Those are just a bunch of bad puns. Where's the joke?
:''Elesa: Exactly! If I make bad puns when I'm supposed to be telling a joke, doesn't it give people even more of an opportunity to tease me and start a funny back-and-forth?
:''Skyla: Um... That's a little too sophisticated for me. Actually, it's really hard to understand.
:''Elesa: Really? I guess I'll just rethink my fashion first.
:''Skyla: Sounds good! Hey, as long as we're hanging out, surely you wouldn't mind having a Pokémon battle with me, right?
:''Elesa: You bet! And don't call me Shirley!
:''Skyla: Oh, Elesa...

====White and Black====
[[File:White and Black flashback.png|thumb|White and Black flashback]]
''White and Black'' (Japanese: '''しろとくろ''' ''White and Black'')
* Location: Inside the house of [[Team Plasma]] in [[Driftveil City]]
* Unlocked by: Defeating [[N]] and [[Ghetsis]] in Black and White
* Memory: Two Team Plasma Grunts are shown talking about N. When they leave, N appears.
=====Quotes=====
:''Grunt 1: Did you hear?
:''Grunt 2: Did I hear what?
:''Grunt 1: Well, I ran into some of our old allies.
:''Grunt 2: Oh! Those who are still in Team Plasma?
:''Grunt 1: They tried to convince me to rejoin Team Plasma.
:''Grunt 2: Seriously? Well, quite a few of them are still in Team Plasma. Lord Ghetsis... No, just Ghetsis. I guess he was actually pretty good. He's awesome! Haha. Just kidding!
:''Grunt 1: What? How dare you say that? How can you say such a thing even after you know what he's done to Lord N?!
:''Grunt 2: Of course, that was disgusting. But even if you live honestly, I'm telling you, the world is cold. As if you were surrounded by Cryogonal.
:''Grunt 1: Yeah, you're right. It has flaws, but Team Plasma is Team Plasma.
:''Grunt 2: Don't you think we could have gone to a region far away? Organizations like Team Plasma must exist everywhere. We might have gotten favorable treatment because of our experience!
:''Grunt 1: (shouting) Stupid, stupid, stupid! And did I mention stupid? It all adds up to nincompoop!
:Grunt 1 hits Grunt 2
:''Grunt 2: Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch! owwwww!
:''Grunt 1: We have to do something for Pokémon. Did you forget that?
:''Grunt 2: Honestly, I'm sorry. But Pokémon have a hard time, too. Don't you think? Once they are in [[Poké Ball]]s, that's it... That might happen. Still, do they really like their Trainers?
:''Grunt 1: Yeah! But Lord N was listening to such feelings and words from Pokémon... Just imagining it can break my heart.
:''Grunt 2: Lord N... I wonder where he is... Now let's go find the Pokémon in N's Castle. We have to protect them.
:*Grunt 1 and Grunt 2 leave. N emerges from behind the archway.
:''N: I'm here, though... I've been worried about the people who believed in me... But it seems they know what they can do for Pokémon in their own ways. Compared to them... What was I doing? What I really should have done was tell people about how Pokémon feel...! The legendary Dragon-type Pokémon knew that. It lived long and known many people. It knew humans and Pokémon have lived and will live together. It knew that in this relationship, humans' actions have an enormous impact on Pokémon. That's why it helps the one who searches for truth... the one who opens the way to the future. It's not necessary... Separating black from white and humans from Pokémon! If you think in terms of each individual life, this world was in a state that couldn't be divided any further. Possibilities are born out of combining and fusing these different lives! There are some things we can understand only by doing this. It will give form to unseen things. These formulae will restructure the world and make it richer! From their Poké Balls, I can hear the many different feelings Pokémon have about their Trainers! More than anything, I can hear their joy that they me people who need them! I'll go... For Pokémon, for Trainers, and for all lives... And for my friends who saved me!

====Farewell, Beloved Sister====
[[File:Farewell Beloved Sister flashback.png|thumb|Farewell, Beloved Sister flashback]]
''Farewell, Beloved Sister'' (Japanese: '''さらばあいすべきスター''' ''Farewell, Beloved Star'')
*Location: Upstairs in the Pokémon Musical (or downstairs, in case the player immediately chooses to receive the {{key|V|Prop Case}} from the linked player)
*Unlocked by: Participating in Pokémon Musical in Black and White
*Memory: The Pokémon Musical owner will talk to himself about whether Hilbert/Hilda dropped the Prop Case on purpose or by accident.
*Note: Before the flashback, the owner will give the contents of the Prop Case to Nate/Rosa.
=====Quotes=====
:''Leaving the Prop Case behind... Huh. Did <Player> do that accidently or on purpose? Whatever the reason, there's no doubt that <Player> had a great talent for coordinating Pokémon Props! Open the Prop Case--and voilà! Colorful Props for Pokémon! Aw, yeah! It's time to play Dress Up! The Top Hat is an elegant Prop that adds class to any Pokémon's head! How about Blue Barrettes on a Pokémon's ears? The Square Glasses are eye catching. They nicely frame a Pokémon's face! Maraca, Maraca, Maraca! It's a sharp look for a Pokémon's arm. The Umber Belt accentuates a waistline. Belts are decorative as well as useful. Putting a Tie on a Pokémon's body makes it look dignified or charming--or both! There's nothing to worry about. If <Player> comes back, we'll return this trusty Prop Case in a trice. In the meantime, we see in you a worthy successor to <Player>. Yes! You'll do! With your talent and this Prop Case, we foresee the rising of a future star! Props to you!

====Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye====
[[File:Meeting Friends Saying Good-Bye flashback.png|thumb|Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye flashback]]
''Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye'' (Japanese: '''トモダチとであいとわかれ''' ''Meeting and Parting with Friends'')
* Location: Inside any [[Pokémon Center]]
* Unlocked by: Defeating N and Ghetsis in Black and White
* Memory: See N inside [[Chargestone Cave]], talking about releasing his Pokémon, separating Pokémon and people, and facing the player character from Black and White.
=====Quotes=====
:''N: Thank you, my friend. Return to the peaceful life you lived before.
:''Grunt: Lord N. Why are you releasing your Pokémon?
:''N: I can't... I just can't keep Pokémon confined in [[Poké Ball]]s! Also, if they stay with their Trainers, Pokémon will battle, and they will be hurt... Even if it is for changing the world to protect Pokémon... It's too hard for me to put them through such pain...
:''Grunt: But... Ever since we were young, we've caught Pokémon and made them battle. That's just how the world works, isn't it?
:''N: Who decided that catching Pokémon and making them battle each other is how the world works? That wasn't how things were before Poké Balls were invented... The rules that govern this world are wrong!
:''Grunt: Th-that's true... Well, I guess I'll let my Pokémon go, then.
:''N: Not yet! The world hasn't changed yet! The time to free your Pokémon will be when I befriend the Unova region's legendary Dragon-type Pokémon, surpass the Champion, and become the hero!
:''Grunt: Well then, I'll head to the next destination.
:*Grunt leaves.
:''N: I will separate Pokémon and people, and black and white will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! But then why... Why did those Pokémon seem so sad to leave me? <Player>! Is it because of that Trainer that my heart wavers now? Were the words of the Pokémon in Accumula Town really true? Does that mean <Player> is an ideal Trainer? The cries of the suffering Pokémon filling that room... The borderline between Pokémon and humans... I exist on that line. I live in the margins between everyone, so I will save them! I will change the world! And to that end, I must fight to the finish with <Player>!
{{-}}

===Player's room===
If the player has achieved certain goals in the original Black and White, such as a certificate for the [[Pokédex]] and trophies from the [[Battle Subway]], then they can be transferred to the player's room in Black 2 and White 2 and can be observed from there.

===Musical Props===
The player may receive the [[Prop]]s for the [[Pokémon Musical]] that were previously owned by the player. The owner will claim that they have dropped it accidentally and will give the player the props if they had not already received a {{key|V|Prop Case}}. However the case won't be obtainable if the player already received a new one in Black 2 and White 2.

===Loblolly's Studio===
Items can be brought over to the player's [[Pokémon Dream World|Dream World]] home from the player's Dream World home from Black and White if the player assists Loblolly picking items for creation which end up in the Dream World in Black and White.

===N's Pokémon===
{{main|N's Pokémon}}
The player may {{p|Zorua|obtain}} and capture some of [[N]]'s Pokémon that he previously had during his adventure in the original Black and White, excluding the Pokémon that N had used during the final battle against the player in Black and White.

==Trivia==
* Although the ''White and Black'' flashback is referred in the Memory List not to be unlocked until the player has participated once in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], it is possible to view it before doing so.
* The flashback さらばあいすべきスター ''Farewell, Beloved Star'' was mistranslated to ''Farewell, Beloved Sister'' in English releases.
* The Memory List text for the flashback ''Taking it to The Next Level'' reads: ''"After your visit to Lentimas Town, Skyla stares blankly while standing in front of the Mistralton City Gym. She wants to talk to someone about something that's worrying her."'' This is highly inconsistent with the actual flashback.
** Also, near the end, Elesa says, "You bet! And don't call me Shirley." This is a possible reference to a line in the movie ''{{wp|Airplane!}}''
* All flashbacks use {{2v2|Black|White}}'s ''[[Pokémon Black & Pokémon White: Super Music Collection|An Unwavering Heart]]'' as background music.

Memory Link

2015-05-23T03:58:20Z

Mastication clover: /* Quotes */

'''Memory Link''' (Japanese: '''おもいでリンク''' ''Memory Link'') is a feature in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]. Memory Link allows players to sync either of the original {{2v2|Black|White}} games with Black 2 and White 2 via [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] or DS Wireless Communications. With this feature, the player can access new game features and interactions in Black 2 and White 2. The player will need to progress their Pokémon Black or White game to specific points in the main story in order to unlock certain flashbacks via the Memory Link.

==Events==
There are several events that take place via Memory Link.
===Flashbacks===
Certain [[Non-player character|NPCs]] will reflect on the past when spoken to after Memory Link has been activated. These memories will explain some of the events that happen in the two year gap that led to the current Unova. Here is a list of the NPCs' flashbacks that occur within the game via Memory Link, how to unlock them and their locations:

====A Triple Team====
[[File:A Triple Team flashback.png|thumb|A Triple Team flashback]]
''A Triple Team'' (Japanese: '''さんにんそろって''' ''The Trio Gathered'')
* Location: Inside the [[Striaton City]] [[Striaton Gym|restaurant]]
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the Trio Badge in Black and White
* Memory: Discover why the [[Striaton Gym]] [[Gym Leader|Leader]]s abdicated their position.
=====Quotes=====
:''Cilan: Chili, are you listening to me? We have to study hard and become full-fledged Gym Leaders as soon as possible ...
:''Chili: About that. If we had gone to N's Castle a year ago, the Seven Sages and the Shadow Triad wouldn't have escaped! Then, nobody would say something like "Three of you together make..."
:''Cress: I guess you're right.
:''Cilan: You think so? But it isn't that big of a deal. We may not have made it in time, but Team Plasma is still gone.
:''Chili: Argh! It's because you say things like that. That's why people treat us like a joke! Like it takes all three of us together to make one great Trainer!
:''Cress: You're overthinking it, but I can't say the possibility is zero.
:''Cilan: Come on, you two... Don't you think it's a bit strange to get recognition and respect as Gym Leaders just for beating bad guys?
:''Chili: I understand what you're saying. But if things go on like this, nothing will ever change. Even if we train, the other Gym Leaders will become that much stronger as well.
:*Shadow Triad member appears
:''???: Then... We'll battle you.
:*Other two Shadow Triad members appear. "!" above Cress and Chili. "?" above Cilan.
:''Cress: Based on your appearance, you must be the Shadow Triad. But why are you here?
:''Shadow Triad: We came on a whim... To vent... To pass time... It doesn't matter.
:''Chili: Three on three! The first one to beat them is the strongest among us!
:*Battle commences
:''Shadow Triad: Too easy...
:''Shadow Triad: These three aren't worth worrying about. We must focus on the other Gym Leaders so that next time they won't get in our way...
:''Shadow Triad: Well... Lord Ghetsis is waiting. We must catch that Pokémon.
:*Shadow Triad depart
:''Chili: C'mon! What was that? Come back here and say that again!
:''Cilan: I mean... They were overwhelmingly strong.
:''Cress: We have to admit it. The three Leaders of Striaton City make one full-fledged Trainer.
:''Cilan: You're right. Chili. Cress. I think as long as the three of us act like the Gym Leaders we are now, nothing will ever change.
:''Chili: I didn't think you would be the first to say that.
:''Cress: Of course, I, Cress, was thinking about that, too.
:''Cilan: All right. Let's resign as Gym Leaders and start our training over from the ground up. Then, I'm sure one of us will become a Trainer everyone recognizes as great.
:''Chili: We're triplets. What we think is the same. So we just have to become as strong as each other, and then we can be Gym Leaders together again!
:''Cress: OK. So as for the replacement Gym Leader...

====Different Bones and Dreams====
[[File:Different Bones and Dreams flashback.png|thumb|Different Bones and Dreams flashback]]
''Different Bones and Dreams'' (Japanese: '''それぞれのホネとユメ''' ''Respective Bones and Dreams'')
* Location: Inside the {{DL|Nacrene City|Nacrene Museum}}
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Quake}} in Black and White
* Memory: See [[Burgh]] come to Lenora and talk about his artist's block. [[Clay]] also reveals his incentive for building [[Clay Tunnel]].
=====Quotes=====
:''Lenora: Why hello, Burgh. What's up? Suffering from artist's block again?
:''Burgh: Hmm... Bones, perhaps...
:''Lenora: Bones...? This is a museum, so of course we have bones. What are you looking for? You next motif?
:''Burgh: Maybe... Or maybe not... Many Bug-type Pokémon have hard coverings, right? Their so-called exoskeletons. So I don't quite understand bones. Not at all, actually.
:''Lenora: So, did you think you would understand something about bones if you came here? Sure thing! Make yourself at home! If you'd like, I can have my husband explain them to you.
:''Burgh: Hmm... Well, for starters, what do bones mean to you?
:''Lenora: When I was little, my dad worked in a mine, and he would always bring home bones he dug up. I was just a child, but I was brought under the spell of bones. What did the bones look like when they were part of a living being? Why are they shaped the way they are? Things like that captivated me.
:''Burgh: Oohhh... I kind of understand. I'm also fascinated by the functional, efficient designs of Bug-type Pokémon, such as the shape of their legs.
:''???: Hey there! What's everyone all gathered up for?
:*Clay approaches.
:''Burgh: What brings you here?
:''Clay: Found a Fossil in Twist Mountain. I came to have Lenora look at it and see if ya wanted to keep it here or somethin'.
:''Burgh: Clay. What do bones mean to you?
:''Clay: Hmm? Well now... No matter who ya are or when ya die, bones are all that'll be left of ya. When ya think about it, it's amazin'. Even if ya die, ya can make money! Some Fossils are worth a lot, ya know!
:''Lenora: I can't tell if you're kidding, but of course you would think that way. Burgh is trying hard to think about what bones mean to him. Don't be so flippant! So what kind of Fossil have you got there? Let me see.
:''Clay: Here ya go! Whaddaya think? It's gotta be worth a mint as a specimen or as a collectible! Which is it?
:''Lenora: Well, I mean thus in a good way, but it's an ordinary Fossil. If it isn't worth much as a specimen, you can't sell it for much. But I'm curious about the soil attached to the Fossil...
:''Burgh: What do you mean?
:''Lenora: It's a very subtle, but it's a bit different from the soil I usually see from Twist Mountain.
:''Clay: That so? Guess my Twist Mountain still has unlimited potential! All right! I'll keep on diggin' my Clay Tunnel! Here, Burgh! That plain ol' Fossil's yours! Have a look at it and think about what bones mean to ya.
:''Burgh: Thank you, Lenora. I guess it's OK that I have my own perspective on what bones mean to me, right?
:''Lenora: Why not? You, me, Clay... We all have a different way of thinking about what bones mean to us. It would be kind of creepy if we all felt the exact same way, right? Anyways, I feel sorry for this Fossil. It's just resting, minding its own business, and everyone is saying this and that about it.
:''Burgh: I know. I'll thank this Fossil by using it as a motif for one of my works. See you, Lenora.

====Hearts' Desire====
[[File:Hearts' Desire flashback.png|thumb|Hearts' Desire flashback]]
''Hearts' Desire'' (Japanese: '''もとめるココロ''' ''Searching Hearts'')
* Location: Inside the [[Icirrus Gym]].
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Freeze}} in Black and White
* Memory: See Brycen telling [[Alder]] he wishes to resign as Gym Leader. Alder also declares that he will resign as Champion.
=====Quotes=====
:''Alder: I see!
:''Brycen: Yes.
:''Alder: Mmmh!
:''Brycen: Well then...
:''Alder: Looking forward to it.
:''???: (shouts) Sensei! You called?
:''Alder: You're looking well!
:*Marshal approaches in a hurry
:''Marshal: Hey, I heard you're going back to acting!
:''Brycen: Indeed! Team Plasma's actions stirred the hearts of the public. People even worry about how to interact with Pokémon. Of course, it's good to think about that relationship, but still...
:''Alder: Even if you're told to find an answer on your own... It's not exactly an easy thing to do now is it?
:''Brycen: That's why... If people can see my bond with my Pokémon when they're watching my movies, it might ease their worries... That was my reasoning...
:''Marshal: Oh! I get it now! Can't communicate that just by holing up in the Gym and talking to challengers. But, are you gonna be all right? What if you get hurt during filming again?
:''Alder: Marshal... Brycen has already decided. Sometimes worrying can destroy potential.
:''Brycen: I'm fine. I have no doubts about my decision. Also, I appreciate Marshal's concern. I was young... I thought I could do any kind of action scene. So I would put myself in unnecessary danger. I thought this bravery was my value as a person. So... Instead of trying to communicate something through my acting, I simply sought amazing action. That was how I got hurt.
:''Marshal: I think I understand. If you seek strength for its own sake, the reason why you wanted it in the first place becomes vague. And you end up desiring victory and nothing else.
:''Alder: That's why I've also made an important decision. I'm going to resign as Champion! We in particular need to take another look at what it means to live together with Pokémon. The world at large is still shaken by uncertainty. So I have to show everyone a new hope.
:''Marshal: Well, if that's what you've decided, Sensei. Even if I argue, that won't change your decision, will it?
:''Alder: You've grown so much since you sought me out and asked to be my pupil. Could that be it? Did becoming part of the Elite Four help you grow up in its own way?
:''Marshal: I thought that if I were strong, my Pokémon would become stronger. Maybe I grew up because my Pokémon taught me that this isn't always the case... Well then, will you spar with me?
:''Brycen: I will observe.
:''Alder: Thank you. I want to be sure my Pokémon are in top condition to challenge the Trainer who will become the next Champion. (shouts) To strength!
:''Marshal: (shouts) To Pokémon!

====A New Light====
[[File:A New Light flashback.png|thumb|A New Light flashback]]
''A New Light'' (Japanese: '''あらたなひかり''' ''A New Light'')
* Location: Outside Drayden's House in [[Opelucid City]]
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Legend}} in Black and White
* Memory: Learn how [[Iris]] became the current {{pkmn|Champion}} of [[Unova]].
=====Quotes=====
:''Iris: Yay! I did it! Haxorus, thank you! I won because of you!
:''Drayden: Well done, Iris.
:''Iris: What did you want to talk to me about, Grandpa?
:''Drayden: Ah yes... I was thinking about the past. I traveled all over the world looking for a successor. I even went to remote places such as the Village of Dragons. That's where I met you, Iris.
:''Iris: Yep! I was the strongest!
:''Drayden: Yes. I was surprised. You were one with your Pokémon and battling with so much joy. Just watching you made me smile. Your opponents felt disappointed by their defeat, but at the same time they enjoyed the battle. It was completely natural for me to decide I wanted to make you my successor.
:''Iris: I'm so glad I came to Unova! There are many different people and so many different Pokémon! And you know what... In the Village of Dragons, people take living alongside Pokémon for granted. I was surprised some people in Unova didn't think that way!
:''Drayden: I found your reactions to be a breath of fresh air. And as a condition to leave the [[Village of Dragons]], you wanted to broaden your experiences and become the Champion... So as I promised, I've been training you as a Trainer and as a Gym Leader. An order directly from Alder came as I was training you.
:''Iris: Alder was smiling, though.
:''Drayden: He lost to N and retained himself. He asked me to help him with his special training, but it was ghastly. He wanted to become an immense obstacle for you, the new Champion... For that alone, he pushed himself incredibly hard.
:''Iris: Alder was really, really, strong! And even when I felt a bit weak, he encouraged us! He said that even when their backs are against the wall, my Pokémon have an intense look in their eyes. So, that's why I won, but I feel like I still have a lot to learn.
:''Drayden: Don't forget that feeling. And now, if I may change the subject... When you came to Opelucid City, I gave you those clothes, right? You're the Champion, now. It's all right to dress up a little.
:''Iris: Are these new clothes? OK. I'll change into them right now!
:*Iris spins and changes clothes
:''Iris: Wooow! It's such a flowing dress!
:''Drayden: What is important is your mental preparation as the Champion, Iris. When I was little, Poké Balls didn't exist yet. Sometimes Pokémon would run away from awful Trainers who didn't try to understand them.
:''Iris: But you were fine, right? I can tell! Your Haxorus loves you very much! I've already decided! I know what kind of Champion I will be! There's a [[Sinnoh myths#Sinnoh Region's Mythology|myth in Sinnoh that says the reason why Pokémon jump out is because they want to thank people]]. I'm sure that we and Pokémon have helped each other and enriched the world since ancient times. These memories have been engraved in each Pokémon's heart! So, I want Pokémon and people to get closer and closer! As the Champion, I want to tell that to everybody!
:''Drayden: Good! If anyone can do it, you can.

''Taking it to The Next Level'' (Japanese: '''ついきゅうハイセンス!!''' ''Pursuing the High Sense!!'')
* Location: In front of the [[Mistralton Gym]]
* Unlocked by: Obtaining the {{badge|Jet}} in Black and White
* Memory: [[Elesa]] talks to Skyla about her image.
=====Quotes=====
:''Elesa: Skyla, can I ask you a favor?
:''Skyla: Sure, what's up?
:''Elesa: I've decided I need a PR makeover! I wanted to try out my new ideas with you, Skyla!
:''Skyla: A PR makeover?
:''Elesa: That's right! Here's the thing. I make what everyone thinks is cool into a reality, right? Well, I get to do what I want to do, and while being a model may be difficult, most importantly, it's fun! But the hard parts are really hard. I mean, everyone judges me simply based on my appearance. People say that I'm reserved, and that I don't look like the type who would tell jokes!
:''Skyla: ...
:''Elesa: So, I've been thinking about it constantly since then! A sophisticated joke! How should I put it... My looks suggest that I'm not a lot of fun. But I'll tear down that mistaken image with my own hands! I'll say something silly and give someone an opportunity to call me out, so we can all have a good laugh!
:''Skyla: Uh... OK...
:''Elesa: OK, get a load of this! Throw that misbehaving Klink in the clink!
:''Elesa: Cofagrigus is so cool! Don't you *cough* agree, Gus?
:''Elesa: You bought those Fossils from Clay? Did you buy them on Clay-away?
:''Skyla: ...
:''Skyla: Elesa... Those are just a bunch of bad puns. Where's the joke?
:''Elesa: Exactly! If I make bad puns when I'm supposed to be telling a joke, doesn't it give people even more of an opportunity to tease me and start a funny back-and-forth?
:''Skyla: Um... That's a little too sophisticated for me. Actually, it's really hard to understand.
:''Elesa: Really? I guess I'll just rethink my fashion first.
:''Skyla: Sounds good! Hey, as long as we're hanging out, surely you wouldn't mind having a Pokémon battle with me, right?
:''Elesa: You bet! And don't call me Shirley!
:''Skyla: Oh, Elesa...

====White and Black====
[[File:White and Black flashback.png|thumb|White and Black flashback]]
''White and Black'' (Japanese: '''しろとくろ''' ''White and Black'')
* Location: Inside the house of [[Team Plasma]] in [[Driftveil City]]
* Unlocked by: Defeating [[N]] and [[Ghetsis]] in Black and White
* Memory: Two Team Plasma Grunts are shown talking about N. When they leave, N appears.
=====Quotes=====
:''Grunt 1: Did you hear?
:''Grunt 2: Did I hear what?
:''Grunt 1: Well, I ran into some of our old allies.
:''Grunt 2: Oh! Those who are still in Team Plasma?
:''Grunt 1: They tried to convince me to rejoin Team Plasma.
:''Grunt 2: Seriously? Well, quite a few of them are still in Team Plasma. Lord Ghetsis... No, just Ghetsis. I guess he was actually pretty good. He's awesome! Haha. Just kidding!
:''Grunt 1: What? How dare you say that? How can you say such a thing even after you know what he's done to Lord N?!
:''Grunt 2: Of course, that was disgusting. But even if you live honestly, I'm telling you, the world is cold. As if you were surrounded by Cryogonal.
:''Grunt 1: Yeah, you're right. It has flaws, but Team Plasma is Team Plasma.
:''Grunt 2: Don't you think we could have gone to a region far away? Organizations like Team Plasma must exist everywhere. We might have gotten favorable treatment because of our experience!
:''Grunt 1: (shouting) Stupid, stupid, stupid! And did I mention stupid? It all adds up to nincompoop!
:Grunt 1 hits Grunt 2
:''Grunt 2: Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch! owwwww!
:''Grunt 1: We have to do something for Pokémon. Did you forget that?
:''Grunt 2: Honestly, I'm sorry. But Pokémon have a hard time, too. Don't you think? Once they are in Poké Balls, that's it... That might happen. Still, do they really like their Trainers?
:''Grunt 1: Yeah! But Lord N was listening to such feelings and words from Pokémon... Just imagining it can break my heart.
:''Grunt 2: Lord N... I wonder where he is... Now let's go find the Pokémon in N's Castle. We have to protect them.
:*Grunt 1 and Grunt 2 leave. N emerges from behind the archway.
:''N: I'm here, though... I've been worried about the people who believed in me... But it seems they know what they can do for Pokémon in their own ways. Compared to them... What was I doing? What I really should have done was tell people about how Pokémon feel...! The legendary Dragon-type Pokémon knew that. It lived long and known many people. It knew humans and Pokémon have lived and will live together. It knew that in this relationship, humans' actions have an enormous impact on Pokémon. That's why it helps the one who searches for truth... the one who opens the way to the future. It's not necessary... Separating black from white and humans from Pokémon! If you think in terms of each individual life, this world was in a state that couldn't be divided any further. Possibilities are born out of combining and fusing these different lives! There are some things we can understand only by doing this. It will give form to unseen things. These formulae will restructure the world and make it richer! From their Poké Balls, I can hear the many different feelings Pokémon have about their Trainers! More than anything, I can hear their joy that they me people who need them! I'll go... For Pokémon, for Trainers, and for all lives... And for my friends who saved me!

====Farewell, Beloved Sister====
[[File:Farewell Beloved Sister flashback.png|thumb|Farewell, Beloved Sister flashback]]
''Farewell, Beloved Sister'' (Japanese: '''さらばあいすべきスター''' ''Farewell, Beloved Star'')
*Location: Upstairs in the Pokémon Musical (or downstairs, in case the player immediately chooses to receive the {{key|V|Prop Case}} from the linked player)
*Unlocked by: Participating in Pokémon Musical in Black and White
*Memory: The Pokémon Musical owner will talk to himself about whether Hilbert/Hilda dropped the Prop Case on purpose or by accident.
*Note: Before the flashback, the owner will give the contents of the Prop Case to Nate/Rosa.
=====Quotes=====
:''Leaving the Prop Case behind... Huh. Did <Player> do that accidently or on purpose? Whatever the reason, there's no doubt that <Player> had a great talent for coordinating Pokémon Props! Open the Prop Case--and voilà! Colorful Props for Pokémon! Aw, yeah! It's time to play Dress Up! The Top Hat is an elegant Prop that adds class to any Pokémon's head! How about Blue Barrettes on a Pokémon's ears? The Square Glasses are eye catching. They nicely frame a Pokémon's face! Maraca, Maraca, Maraca! It's a sharp look for a Pokémon's arm. The Umber Belt accentuates a waistline. Belts are decorative as well as useful. Putting a Tie on a Pokémon's body makes it look dignified or charming--or both! There's nothing to worry about. If <Player> comes back, we'll return this trusty Prop Case in a trice. In the meantime, we see in you a worthy successor to <Player>. Yes! You'll do! With your talent and this Prop Case, we foresee the rising of a future star! Props to you!

====Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye====
[[File:Meeting Friends Saying Good-Bye flashback.png|thumb|Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye flashback]]
''Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye'' (Japanese: '''トモダチとであいとわかれ''' ''Meeting and Parting with Friends'')
* Location: Inside any [[Pokémon Center]]
* Unlocked by: Defeating N and Ghetsis in Black and White
* Memory: See N inside [[Chargestone Cave]], talking about releasing his Pokémon, separating Pokémon and people, and facing the player character from Black and White.
=====Quotes=====
:''N: Thank you, my friend. Return to the peaceful life you lived before.
:''Grunt: Lord N. Why are you releasing your Pokémon?
:''N: I can't... I just can't keep Pokémon confined in Poké Balls! Also, if they stay with their Trainers, Pokémon will battle, and they will be hurt... Even if it is for changing the world to protect Pokémon... It's too hard for me to put them through such pain...
:''Grunt: But... Ever since we were young, we've caught Pokémon and made them battle. That's just how the world works, isn't it?
:''N: Who decided that catching Pokémon and making them battle each other is how the world works? That wasn't how things were before Poké Balls were invented... The rules that govern this world are wrong!
:''Grunt: Th-that's true... Well, I guess I'll let my Pokémon go, then.
:''N: Not yet! The world hasn't changed yet! The time to free your Pokémon will be when I befriend the Unova region's legendary Dragon-type Pokémon, surpass the Champion, and become the hero!
:''Grunt: Well then, I'll head to the next destination.
:*Grunt leaves.
:''N: I will separate Pokémon and people, and black and white will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! But then why... Why did those Pokémon seem so sad to leave me? <Player>! Is it because of that Trainer that my heart wavers now? Were the words of the Pokémon in Accumula Town really true? Does that mean <Player> is an ideal Trainer? The cries of the suffering Pokémon filling that room... The borderline between Pokémon and humans... I exist on that line. I live in the margins between everyone, so I will save them! I will change the world! And to that end, I must fight to the finish with <Player>!
{{-}}

===Player's room===
If the player has achieved certain goals in the original Black and White, such as a certificate for the [[Pokédex]] and trophies from the [[Battle Subway]], then they can be transferred to the player's room in Black 2 and White 2 and can be observed from there.

===Musical Props===
The player may receive the [[Prop]]s for the [[Pokémon Musical]] that were previously owned by the player. The owner will claim that they have dropped it accidentally and will give the player the props if they had not already received a {{key|V|Prop Case}}. However the case won't be obtainable if the player already received a new one in Black 2 and White 2.

===Loblolly's Studio===
Items can be brought over to the player's [[Pokémon Dream World|Dream World]] home from the player's Dream World home from Black and White if the player assists Loblolly picking items for creation which end up in the Dream World in Black and White.

===N's Pokémon===
{{main|N's Pokémon}}
The player may {{p|Zorua|obtain}} and capture some of [[N]]'s Pokémon that he previously had during his adventure in the original Black and White, excluding the Pokémon that N had used during the final battle against the player in Black and White. To find N's Pokémon, the player must defeat N and [[Ghetsis]] in Black and White.

===Battles===
When Memory Link is used, the player can battle [[Bianca]] and [[Cheren]], who have their old [[Party|team]] from the original Black and White, depending on who the [[starter Pokémon]] was in Black and White. The player must have defeated [[N]] and [[Ghetsis]] in Black and White in order to have these one-time battles.

==Trivia==
* Although the ''White and Black'' flashback is referred in the Memory List not to be unlocked until the player has participated once in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], it is possible to view it before doing so.
* The flashback さらばあいすべきスター ''Farewell, Beloved Star'' was mistranslated to ''Farewell, Beloved Sister'' in English releases.
* The Memory List text for the flashback ''Taking it to The Next Level'' reads: ''"After your visit to Lentimas Town, Skyla stares blankly while standing in front of the Mistralton City Gym. She wants to talk to someone about something that's worrying her."'' This is highly inconsistent with the actual flashback.
** Also, near the end, Elesa says, "You bet! And don't call me Shirley." This is a possible reference to a line in the movie ''{{wp|Airplane!}}''
* All flashbacks use {{2v2|Black|White}}'s ''[[Pokémon Black & Pokémon White: Super Music Collection|An Unwavering Heart]]'' as background music.

Cry

2015-02-28T17:57:15Z

Mastication clover:

:''Cry redirects here. If you were looking for the move, see {{m|Growl}}.''

[[File:Regigigas cry.png|frame|The cry of {{p|Regigigas}}, as seen in the [[Pokédex]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}]]
A Pokémon's '''cry''' (Japanese: '''なきごえ''' ''cry'') is the sound it makes. Depending on the continuity, this can either be a unique sound, or only the Pokémon's name and various phrases derived from its name. There are also several instances of [[talking Pokémon]].

==In the games==
When a Pokémon is released from its [[Poké Ball]], it will call out its cry, which consists of an electronically made "noise." It will also cry out when using certain moves, such as {{m|Growl}}, {{m|Roar}}, and {{m|Hyper Voice}}. Since [[Generation III]] onward, when the Pokémon faints, or when it comes into {{pkmn|battle}} or is checked in the [[stats#gallery|status screen]] when injured or with a [[status condition]], its cry will sound but will be altered noticeably.

Pokémon related by [[evolution]] (e.g., {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Charmeleon}}) and association (e.g., {{p|Pansage}}, {{p|Pansear}}, and {{p|Panpour}}) will often have notably similar cries, though others may sound very different ({{p|Remoraid}} and {{p|Octillery}}), especially if from different [[Generation]]s (e.g., {{p|Kirlia}} and {{p|Gallade}}). When Pokémon undergo [[Mega Evolution]] or [[Primal Reversion]], their cry is altered, sometimes dramatically. Many [[alternate form]]s, such as those of the [[Forces of Nature]], {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Kyurem}}, also have different cries.

Despite there being 151 Pokémon in Generation I, there are only 37 completely different cries in the Generation I games. However, similar cries are distinguished by differences in pitch, speed, echo, or disabling one of the sound channels. For example, {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Charmeleon}}'s base cries are the same, but Charmeleon's is lower-pitched than Charmander's. Another example is that Metapod and Abra have the same base cry, but Metapod's only plays one sound channel. In [[Generation II]], there were 30 new base cries introduced, applying the same techniques as before. The only Generation II cries based on older ones belong to {{p|Crobat}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, both of which evolve from Generation I Pokémon.


Before [[Generation VI]], six pairs of [[Generation I]] Pokemon shared near-identical cries:
* {{p|Charizard}}'s cry was very slightly higher-pitched and shorter than {{p|Rhyhorn}}'s, by 0.006 of a second.
* {{p|Caterpie}}'s cry was slightly longer than {{p|Goldeen}}'s, by 0.071 of a second.
* {{p|Wigglytuff}}'s cry was slightly lower-pitched and longer than {{p|Poliwhirl}}'s, by 0.006 of a second.
* {{p|Vileplume}}'s cry was slightly higher-pitched and longer than {{p|Aerodactyl}}'s, by 0.059 of a second.
* {{p|Poliwag}}'s cry was very slightly lower-pitched than {{p|Ditto}}'s.
* {{p|Machop}}'s cry was slightly lower-pitched and shorter than {{p|Omanyte}}'s, by 0.002 of a second.

Possibly due to improved technology, very few Pokémon introduced since [[Generation III]] have had similar cries, and those that do are usually related by [[evolution]] or association as they were in Generation I. As the generations pass, the calls of new Pokémon sound more refined and realistic, while the cries of Pokémon released in previous generations sound comparatively more like the electronic beeps they are. For unspecified reasons, the cries of Generation III games are actually played at 0.9× the speed of the original samples. Cries introduced since [[Generation IV]] are mostly recognizable, digitized sounds, such as birds chirping for {{p|Starly}} or a xylophone for {{p|Kricketot}}. In {{g|X and Y}}, the cries of most Pokémon from previous Generations were updated through the {{wp|Nintendo 3DS}}'s technology. The cries of some Pokémon, such as {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Corphish}}, and {{p|Shiftry}}, were almost completely changed.

In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], each Pokémon's original cry was remade through the {{wp|Nintendo 64}}'s technology. Although most of these cries resemble the Game Boy versions closely, some Pokémon were given special cries that closely resemble actual animals, or are a combination of of the two. This was not carried over into later console games, which use the same cries as the handheld games.

In {{5v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, cries of the Pokémon found in the player's current location can occasionally be heard while walking in the overworld. In {{game|Emerald}}, these cries are heard more often if the first Pokémon in the player's [[party]] has the [[Ability]] {{a|Swarm}}.

===Pikachu's cry===
Although Pikachu has a traditional cry, in some games, it has been given special cries, similar to the anime. This makes it the only Pokémon to have multiple cries without changing forms.

In {{game|Yellow}}, the [[Red's Pikachu (game)|starting Pikachu]] has a total of forty cries, though only two occur in battle. Like the anime, all are variations of its name and voiced by [[Ikue Ohtani]].<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNV4P3DFPps Pikachu's 40 cries in Yellow</ref> Because the [[Game Boy]] lacks high-quality sound, Game Freak had to think of different ways to recreate Pikachu's cry. [[Junichi Masuda]] converted the sound into one-bit data, recreating the sound of Ohtani's voice.<ref>[http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=144 Game Freak blog]</ref> This is also the case if the starter Pikachu is brought to battle in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} or {{g|Stadium 2}}.

The feature returned in {{g|X and Y}} with all-new voice recordings. In these games, Pikachu has 15 cries, two of which occur in battle and the rest in [[Pokémon-Amie]].

==In the anime==
Most Pokémon will only say their names and communicate using those syllables. For example, [[Ash's Pikachu]] has been known to use the three syllables in the word "Pikachu" in various combinations to refer to several characters, including {{Ash}} (''Pikapi''), {{an|Misty}} (''PiKachupi''), {{an|Brock}} (''PikaChu''), {{an|Dawn}} (''Pikaka''), {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} (''Pipipi''), [[Team Rocket]] (''Pipikachu''), {{AP|Bulbasaur}} (''Pikakapika'') and "My name is Pikachu" (''Pika, Pikachu'').

Due to Pokémon being dubbed, the original cry of a Pokémon is sometimes preserved in the anime, more often than not if the name is either similar or the same in Japanese and English. One example is {{p|Charizard}}, which can be heard to cry out ''Lizardon'' if listened to closely enough. Likewise, an {{p|Onix}} roar sounds like ''Iwark'' and Wooper's cry sounds like "Upah!". Plus, the cries of Skitty & Delcatty sound like "ene"; the first 3 letters of their Japanese names. Arbok, in addition, is heard to hiss "Charbok(a)," despite both its English and Japanese names being "Arbok."

Some Pokémon's cries are entirely unrelated to their names in any language. For example, {{p|Victreebel}} screeches loudly, {{p|Staryu}} quickly yells "Heah!" in an echoing male voice, and {{p|Starmie}} says "Hoo!" in a breathy, echoing female voice. Most Legendary Pokémon that cannot speak to humans instead roar, screech, or make other sounds. {{p|Krabby}}'s and {{p|Kingler}}'s cry, which sounds similar to "cookie", is sometimes used as an internet meme.

The Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer]] and [[Pokémon Origins]] make realistic, animal-like sounds that differ from both their in-game and anime cries.

==Gallery==
{{incomplete|section|XY and ORAS}}
The cry page exists neither in the [[Generation I|first]] [[Generation II|two]] generations nor {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|their|s}} {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|remakes|s}}. Instead, the cry plays if the word "Cry" is selected in the Pokédex. In [[Generation VI]], the cry page is shared with the [[form differences|forms]] page.

==Trivia==
* As of Generation V, {{p|Jynx}} has the longest cry at 2.238 seconds, while {{p|Pidgey}}'s is the shortest at 0.181 seconds.
* In Generation I, when a player's Pokémon has low HP in battle, its cry will be distorted. This is likely due to the game performing two simultaneous processes: one for the alarm sound of low HP and another to play the Pokémon's cry. This problem was fixed in Generation II.
** This situation occurs both when the Pokémon is sent out into battle and when its information is checked.
** This may have been inspiration for the alteration to cries that occurs when an injured Pokémon is sent into battle from Generation III to Generation V.
* The Pokémon with the most cry changes throughout the series is {{p|Haunter}}, having been changed in Generations II, III, and VI. In Generation I, it is a high-pitched, four-note beeping with low-pitched buzzing in the background. In Generation II, the beeping was replaced by a three-note jingle. The jingle was absent in Generations III through V, leaving just the buzz. In Generation VI, its cry was overhauled to sound like an update of its original one.
* In Generation IV, if the Nintendo DS is put into sleep mode in the middle of a Pokémon's cry, the cry will start over when the DS is opened again. This happens both when a Pokémon is coming into battle and fainting.
* Despite not being a Pokémon, [[Dark Rust]] has its own cry in {{g|Rumble Blast}}.
** Similarly, all [[Pokéstar Studios opponents]] have their own cries despite not being Pokémon.

Due to Pokémon being dubbed, the original cry of a Pokémon is sometimes preserved in the anime, more often than not if the name is either similar or the same in Japanese and English. One example is {{p|Charizard}}, which can be heard to cry out ''Lizardon'' if listened to closely enough. Likewise, an {{p|Onix}} roar sounds like ''Iwark'' and Wooper's cry sounds like "Upah!". Plus, the cries of Skitty & Delcatty sound like "ene"; the first 3 letters of their Japanese names. Arbok, in addition, is heard to hiss "Charbok(a)," despite both its English and Japanese names being "Arbok."

Some Pokémon's cries are entirely unrelated to their names in any language. For example, {{p|Victreebel}} screeches loudly, {{p|Staryu}} quickly yells "Heah!" in an echoing male voice, and {{p|Starmie}} says "Hoo!" in a breathy, echoing female voice. Most Legendary Pokémon that cannot speak to humans instead roar, screech, or make other sounds. {{p|Krabby}}'s and {{p|Kingler}}'s cry, which sounds similar to "cookie", is sometimes used as an internet meme.

The Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer]] and [[Pokémon Origins]] make realistic, animal-like sounds that differ from both their in-game and anime cries.

==Trivia==
* As of Generation V, {{p|Jynx}} has the longest cry at 2.238 seconds, while {{p|Pidgey}}'s is the shortest at 0.181 seconds.
* In Generation I, when a player's Pokémon has low HP in battle, its cry will be distorted. This is likely due to the game performing two simultaneous processes: one for the alarm sound of low HP and another to play the Pokémon's cry. This problem was fixed in Generation II.
** This situation occurs both when the Pokémon is sent out into battle and when its information is checked.
** This may have been inspiration for the alteration to cries that occurs when an injured Pokémon is sent into battle from Generation III to Generation V.
* The Pokémon with the most cry changes throughout the series is {{p|Haunter}}, having been changed in Generations II, III, and VI. In Generation I, it is a high-pitched, four-note beeping with low-pitched buzzing in the background. In Generation II, the beeping was replaced by a three-note jingle. The jingle was absent in Generations III through V, leaving just the buzz. In Generation VI, its cry was overhauled to sound like an update of its original one.
* In Generation IV, if the Nintendo DS is put into sleep mode in the middle of a Pokémon's cry, the cry will start over when the DS is opened again. This happens both when a Pokémon is coming into battle and fainting.
* Despite not being a Pokémon, [[Dark Rust]] has its own cry in {{g|Rumble Blast}}.
** Similarly, all [[Pokéstar Studios opponents]] have their own cries despite not being Pokémon.

Cry

[[File:Regigigas cry.png|frame|The cry of {{p|Regigigas}}, as seen on the [[Pokédex]]]]
A Pokémon's '''cry''' (Japanese: '''なきごえ''' ''cry'') is the sound it makes. Depending on the continuity, this can either be a unique sound, or only the Pokémon's name and various phrases derived from its name. There are also several instances of [[talking Pokémon]].

==In the games==
When a Pokémon is released from its [[Poké Ball]], it will call out its cry, which consists of an electronically made "noise." It will also cry out when using certain moves, such as {{m|Growl}}, {{m|Roar}}, and {{m|Hyper Voice}}. Since [[Generation III]] onward, when the Pokémon faints, or when it comes into {{pkmn|battle}} or is checked in the [[stats#gallery|status screen]] when injured or with a [[status condition]], its cry will sound but will be altered noticeably.

Pokémon related by [[evolution]] (e.g., {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Charmeleon}}) and association ({{p|Pansage}}, {{p|Pansear}}, and {{p|Panpour}}) will often have notably similar cries, though others may sound very different ({{p|Remoraid}} and {{p|Octillery}}), especially if from different Generations ({{p|Kirlia}} and {{p|Gallade}}). When Pokémon undergo [[Mega Evolution]] or [[Primal Reversion]], their cry is altered, sometimes dramatically. Many [[alternate form]]s, such as those of the [[Forces of Nature]], {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Kyurem}}, also have different cries.

Despite there being 151 Pokémon in Generation I, there are only 37 completely different cries in the Generation I games. However, similar cries are distinguished by differences in pitch, speed, echo, or disabling one of the sound channels. For example, {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Charmeleon}}'s base cries are the same, but Charmeleon's is lower-pitched than Charmander's. Another example is that Metapod and Abra have the same base cry, but Metapod's only plays one sound channel. In [[Generation II]], there were 30 new base cries introduced, applying the same techniques as before. The only Generation II cries based on older ones belong to {{p|Crobat}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, both of which evolve from Generation I Pokémon.


Before [[Generation VI]], six pairs of [[Generation I]] Pokemon shared near-identical cries:
* {{p|Charizard}}'s cry was very slightly higher-pitched and shorter than {{p|Rhyhorn}}'s, by 0.006 of a second.
* {{p|Caterpie}}'s cry was slightly longer than {{p|Goldeen}}'s, by 0.071 of a second.
* {{p|Wigglytuff}}'s cry was slightly lower-pitched and longer than {{p|Poliwhirl}}'s, by 0.006 of a second.
* {{p|Vileplume}}'s cry was slightly higher-pitched and longer than {{p|Aerodactyl}}'s, by 0.059 of a second.
* {{p|Poliwag}}'s cry was very slightly lower-pitched than {{p|Ditto}}'s.
* {{p|Machop}}'s cry was slightly lower-pitched and shorter than {{p|Omanyte}}'s, by 0.002 of a second.

Possibly due to improved technology, very few Pokémon introduced since [[Generation III]] have had similar cries, and those that do are usually related by [[evolution]] or association as they were in Generation I. As the generations pass, the calls of new Pokémon sound more refined and realistic, while the cries of Pokémon released in previous generations sound comparatively more like the electronic beeps they are. For unspecified reasons, the cries of Generation III games are actually played at 0.9× the speed of the original samples. Cries introduced since [[Generation IV]] are mostly recognizable, digitized sounds, such as birds chirping for {{p|Starly}} or a xylophone for {{p|Kricketot}}. In {{g|X and Y}}, the cries of most Pokémon from previous Generations were updated through the {{wp|Nintendo 3DS}}'s technology. The cries of some Pokémon, such as {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Corphish}}, and {{p|Shiftry}}, were almost completely changed.

In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], each Pokémon's original cry was remade through the {{wp|Nintendo 64}}'s technology. Although most of these cries resemble the Game Boy versions closely, some Pokémon were given special cries that closely resemble actual animals, or are a combination of of the two. This was not carried over into later console games, which use the same cries as the handheld games.

In {{5v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, cries of the Pokémon found in the player's current location can occasionally be heard while walking in the overworld. In {{game|Emerald}}, these cries are heard more often if the first Pokémon in the player's [[party]] has the [[Ability]] {{a|Swarm}}.

===Pikachu's cry===
Although Pikachu has a traditional cry, in some games, it has been given special cries, similar to the anime. This makes it the only Pokémon to have multiple cries without changing forms.

In {{game|Yellow}}, the [[Red's Pikachu (game)|starting Pikachu]] has a total of forty cries, though only two occur in battle. Like the anime, all are variations of its name and voiced by [[Ikue Ohtani]].<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNV4P3DFPps Pikachu's 40 cries in Yellow</ref> Because the [[Game Boy]] lacks high-quality sound, Game Freak had to think of different ways to recreate Pikachu's cry. [[Junichi Masuda]] converted the sound into one-bit data, recreating the sound of Ohtani's voice.<ref>[http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=144 Game Freak blog]</ref> This is also the case if the starter Pikachu is brought to battle in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} or {{g|Stadium 2}}.

The feature returned in {{g|X and Y}} with all-new voice recordings. In these games, Pikachu has 15 cries, two of which occur in battle and the rest in [[Pokémon-Amie]].

==In the anime==
Most Pokémon will only say their names and communicate using those syllables. For example, [[Ash's Pikachu]] has been known to use the three syllables in the word "Pikachu" in various combinations to refer to several characters, including {{Ash}} (''Pikapi''), {{an|Misty}} (''PiKachupi''), {{an|Brock}} (''PikaChu''), {{an|Dawn}} (''Pikaka''), {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} (''Pipipi''), [[Team Rocket]] (''Pipikachu''), {{AP|Bulbasaur}} (''Pikakapika'') and "My name is Pikachu" (''Pika, Pikachu'').

[[File:Young N.png|left|thumb|N as a child]]
[[File:NClose.png|200px|right|thumb|A close-up of N in [[N's Castle|his castle]] after the final battle]]
When N was young, he was orphaned and left in the woods; here, he was raised by Pokémon. One day, [[Ghetsis]] came, claiming to be his father, and raised him to be king of [[Team Plasma]]. According to [[Anthea and Concordia|Concordia]], "N's heart is pure and innocent."

As a child, he was raised together with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and was isolated from [[human]]s. Ghetsis would only let N see Pokémon that had been hurt by humans. Based on the contents of his room in [[N's Castle]], as a child he appeared to be interested in skateboarding, transportation (such as planes and trains), basketball, and darts. He also had many brand new toys. Pokémon have played with his toys, as his skateboard is covered in claw marks and scratches. The [[Seven Sages]] educated him in many subjects.

In the opening of Black and White, N is clothed in special garb and is crowned by Ghetsis in the throne room of [[N's Castle]]. During the ceremony, as the other sages watch, N remembers his childhood spent with his Pokémon friends.

In Black and White, N serves as an anti-villain, being the secondary antagonist, yet a good natured person who sees Pokémon as his friends and is generally rather amicable toward the {{player}} as well. At several points during the game he appears before the player to battle.

[[File:N B2W2 Trailer.png|250px|thumb|N at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] in a flashback during [[Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer|Black 2 and White 2's trailer]]]]
In Black and White, the player first meets N in [[Accumula Town]] after Team Plasma's public rally and Ghetsis' speech, where he challenges the player to a [[Pokémon battle]]. He again appears outside of the [[Nacrene Gym]], for another battle, and later at [[Nimbasa City]], where he asks the player to talk to him while riding the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel. During this excursion, N reveals that he is the leader of Team Plasma; Ghetsis had asked him to assist him in Team Plasma's liberation of Pokémon. It is confirmed after the ride, when a group of Plasma Grunts address him as their leader, and he battles the player to allow them time to get away. He is again encountered at the [[Chargestone Cave]], where he battles the player, and lastly, in [[Dragonspiral Tower]], where he found {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} for his plans.

When the player challenges the {{un|Pokémon League}}, after beating the [[Elite Four]], the player finds N with [[Alder]], the {{pkmn|Champion}}, arguing over the use of Pokémon as tools. When the player arrives, N summons [[N's Castle|his Castle]] from the earth, which attaches itself to the Pokémon League, and as he enters the Castle, he challenges the player to face him. [[Cheren]] arrives, and he and Alder ask the player to stop him.

Within the castle's throne room, N tells the player that his goal is to create separate worlds for both humans and Pokémon, saying that he is willing to battle even if his Pokémon are hurt. To combat the player, he summons {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}. As N's dragon appears, the player's {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Light Stone|Light}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone|Dark}}{{sup/5|W}} Stone is revived into the opposing dragon, and N encourages the player to battle it.

Once the dragon is caught, N will challenge the player. After N is defeated, Ghetsis appears and reveals he revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} for N to use, calling him a disappointment. Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon—separate worlds—is shown to be a lie. Ghetsis manipulated N and Team Plasma to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon so that he could dominate the region. Alder and Cheren both hear this. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away.

After the battle, N apologizes, walks to a hole to outside on edge of the throne room, lets out his legendary Pokémon, and bids a final farewell to the player. Then, after the credit-roll, an epilogue movie plays in which {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}, with N on top, hovers above the clouds and, activating its tail's engine, accelerates away.

After the player finds the other six sages for [[Looker]], Looker says that he has heard that N was seen in a distant land with a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.

In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], N returns to save {{p|Kyurem}} from [[Ghetsis]] riding {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W2}}. When his legendary dragon is absorbed by Kyurem to transform to Black Kyurem{{sup/5|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup/5|W2}}, he pleads the player to stop Ghetsis and get it back.

On {{rt|23|Unova}} on the way to {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}}, he will give the player {{HM|05|Waterfall}}.

After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], N will appear in [[Nimbasa City]] at the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel on [[Days of the week|Fridays]], and N's Zoroark will appear on {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}}, leading the player to the ruins of [[N's Castle]], which N and the player walk around. In the throne room, N asks the player to battle him and his {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W2}}. When the player defeats him, N reverts his dragon to its dormant state—the [[Dragon Stone|Dark Stone]]{{sup/5|B2}}/[[Dragon Stone|Light Stone]]{{sup/5|W2}}—and gives it to the player to summon it at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] to catch.

After catching or knocking out {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W2}}, N arrives to congratulate the player and informs that Kyurem has returned to the [[Giant Chasm]]. After Kyurem has been caught or knocked out by the player, N can be met at the [[Rondez-View Ferris Wheel]] on a Friday. N then returns to the ruins of his castle, which now form part of {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}}, for a rematch with different Pokémon depending on the [[Seasons|season]].

==Quotes==
==={{game|Black and White|s}}===
====[[Accumula Town]]====
* Before battle
:''"Your Pokémon... Just now, it was saying..."''
:''"Yes, they're talking. Oh. Then, you two can't hear it, either... How sad. My name is N."''
:''"The [[Pokédex]], eh? So... You're going to confine many, many Pokémon in [[Poké Ball]]s for that, then. I'm a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, too, but I can't help wondering... Are Pokémon really happy that way?"''
:''"Well, <player>, is it? Let me hear your Pokémon's voice again!"''

* After taking a hit
:''"More! Let me hear the voice of your Pokémon!"''

* After being defeated
:''"I never expected to hear Pokémon say such things..."''

* After the battle
:''"As long as Pokémon are confined in Poké Balls... Pokémon will never become perfect beings. I have to change the world for Pokémon, because they're my friends."''

====[[Nacrene City]]====
:''"I... want to see things no one can see. The truths of Pokémon inside Poké Balls. The ideals of how Trainers should be. And a future where Pokémon have become perfect... Do you feel the same?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"That so? I think my friends and I should test you to see if you can see this future, too."''
::'''No''': ''"Huh. I expected more from you. Now pay attention. My friends and I will test you to see if you can see this future, too."''

* After being defeated
:''"I cannot see the future yet... The {{pkmn|world}} is still to be determined..."''

* After battle
:''"Right now, my friends aren't strong enough to save all Pokémon. Maybe I can't solve the equation that will change the world. So, I need power... Power enough to make anyone agree with me."''
:''"Now I know what power I need. {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}! The [[legendary Pokémon]] that, along with the hero, created the [[Unova]] region. It's my turn to become that hero--and you and I will be friends!"''

====[[Nimbasa City]]====
:''"You're looking for Team Plasma, right? They ran into the amusement park. Come with me."''
:''"They're not here. Let's ride the Ferris wheel and see if we can spot them. I love Ferris wheels. The circular motion… The mechanics… They're like collections of elegant formulas."''
:''"First, I must tell you... I am the king of Team Plasma. Ghetsis asked me to work with him to save Pokémon. I wonder how many Pokémon exist in this world..."''
:''"There's no problem. You're part of the people we brought in to help us save the Pokémon. So, you're under my protection, as well. Go, quickly, and let my battle cover your retreat. ...Now then, <player>, do you follow my logic?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"If true, your words please me. Ah. Then... The future I envision... Perhaps I can't beat you here and now, but I'll battle you to buy time for these members of Team Plasma to get away!"''
::'''No''': ''"So that's how it is... That's unfortunate. Ah. Then... The future I envision... Perhaps I can't beat you here and now, but I'll battle you anyway to buy time for these members of Team Plasma to flee."''

* After the first move
:''"Your Pokémon look happy."''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Even if I lose, is it different from the future I saw?"''

* Upon defeat
:''"The result was the same... But you... Who are you?"''

* After battle
:''"You're quite strong. But I have a future that I must change. And, for that future... I'll defeat the Champion and become unbeatable, unlike any other! I'll make all Trainers free their Pokémon! Just try and stop me! If you want to be together with Pokémon, your only hope is to collect the Badges from each area and head for the Pokémon League! Try and stop me there, if you dare! If your conviction is not strong enough, you will never be able to defeat me."''

====[[Chargestone Cave]]====
:''"Ah, yes. That was the [[Shadow Triad]], just now. [[Ghetsis]] enlisted them in [[Team Plasma]]. Apparently, they were the ones who prepared the {{p|Galvantula}} nest at the cave entrance."''
:''"Chargestone Cave... I like this place. Formulas express {{t|electric}}ity and its connection to Pokémon... If people did not exist, this would be an ideal place. You have been chosen, you know. Does it surprise you I said that?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"Of course. Such news should be a surprise."''
::'''No''': ''"Hmph. If you don't understand what that means, it's not likely to surprise you."''
:''"I told Ghetsis about you and your friends. After I did, he apparently used the Shadow Triad to find out about you. [[Cheren]] is pursuing the ideal of strength. Poor [[Bianca]] has faced the sad truth that not everyone can become stronger. And you are not swayed either way--more of a neutral presence. Which is apparently a good thing. Team Plasma will be waiting for you ahead. Ghetsis wants to see what kind of Pokémon Trainer you really are."''

* Before battle
:''"Many different values mix together, and the world becomes gray... That is unforgivable! I will separate Pokémon and people, and [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|black and white]] will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! Yes, that is my dream! That is the dream I must fulfill! <player>, do you have a dream of your own?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"You have a dream... That's wonderful. I'll learn just what kind of dream you have--in battle!"''
::'''No''': ''"As if a person without a dream could ever understand me! Eh... I guess... I have to crush your will here!"''

*After takes a hit
:''"Do you believe that [[Pokémon battle]]s help us understand one another?"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I will show you that my love for my friends permeates every cell of my body. Behold!"''

* Upon defeat
:''"My friends getting hurt... That's what a Pokémon battle is."''

* After battle
:''"Tsk! Why? Is it impossible for me to win while feeling bad about being a Trainer? As if I could pursue my ideals{{sup/5|Bl}}/the truth{{sup/5|W}} with something as meaningless as a battle! As if that could make me worthy to become friends with the [[legendary Pokémon]]!"''

:''"[[Professor Juniper]], what are you thinking? You appear to have no qualms about the relationship between Pokémon and people. You put Pokémon into categories using arbitrary rules and think you can understand them like that... The very idea of a Pokédex revolts me. What do you have to say for yourself?"''

:''"You're saying I should just allow people to think whatever they want and treat Pokémon however they want, no matter whether the Pokémon suffer? I refuse to tolerate the existence of a world like that!"''

====[[Mistralton City]]====
:''"They may say it is for understanding one another better, but what Trainers really use battles for is to compete... And they hurt each others' Pokémon! Am I the only one who finds this terribly painful? Whatever... I'm going to talk to your Pokémon. I've been living with Pokémon since I was born, so it's easier for me to talk with them than with people. ...Because Pokémon never tell lies."''
:''"Hey, <lead Pokémon>. Would you tell me what kind of Trainer <player> is?"''
:''"OK, OK, got it. So <player> was born in [[Nuvema Town]], lives with [[Mom]], and was given the Pokédex to start off a journey to see the world. Still, this <lead Pokémon> trusts you for some reason. That's good! If every person and Pokémon cared about one another like you two do, I could watch over the future of people and Pokémon without having to liberate Pokémon from people who just use them."''
:''"Ghetsis is using Team Plasma to search for some special stones--the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Light Stone}} and the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone}}... These stones hold the essence of two legendary Pokémon. It is said that when they lost their physical form, they fell into a slumber and were transformed. Now, they wait for the hero's arrival... I shall resurrect a legendary {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon from one of these stones, and become its friend. That will show the world that I am the new hero. Everyone will follow what I say!"''
:''"My vision is to change the world without using force. Trying to change the world by force will just make others resist. If people resist, the ones that will be hurt are the innocent Pokémon used by foolish Trainers. You understand. Pokémon are not just tools for people to use!"''
:''"As a result... Pokémon and Trainers who care about one another, like you and your Pokémon, will be separated. And that does break my heart a little."''

====[[Dragonspiral Tower]]====
:''"What do you think, <player>? How do you like the powerful{{sup/5|Bl}}/beautiful{{sup/5|W}} form of the Pokémon who appears before and fights beside the hero that will lead the way to a new world?"''
:''"Now, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} and I will head to the Pokémon League and defeat the Champion! This will be the last of the Pokémon battles that hurt Pokémon so. A world for Pokémon alone... It's finally going to be a reality."''
:''"If you want to stop me, you must become a hero as well! That's right! When Zekrom{{sup/5|Bl}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W}}'s counterpart, Reshiram{{sup/5|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup/5|W}}, recognizes you, we will finally be even, and then you can try to stop us!"''
:''"Well, what will you do? My prediction... If the future that I see is true, you will meet Reshiram{{sup/5|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup/5|W}}. The Pokémon with you believe in you so strongly... Will you be the one who interferes with my formula for changing the world? If you want to protect the bonds between Pokémon and people, you must search for Reshiram{{sup/5|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup/5|W}}! I'm sure it is waiting for you in the form of the Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}}."''

====[[Pokémon League]]====
:''"It's over! Never again will Pokémon be made to suffer or be held captive by humans. It's all thanks to my friend, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}! You may have the title of Champion… But you can't stop me with just a title. Your soft heart has left you weak. Years ago, you lost your Pokémon, your partner, to sickness. In order to forget the pain in your heart, you wandered Unova… Who knows how long it's been since you've had to fight with your full strength? I actually kind of like that about you, though. As a Trainer who far outmatches the Champion, I shall issue an order across Unova: Trainers of the world, free your Pokémon!"''
:''"You and I both put our beliefs on the line and fought with all our strength. And I won. Do not say another word."''
:''"...I've been waiting. In the future I envisioned, you obtained a stone. And, indeed, you have. That Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}}... {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} is responding to it. Stop. This is not a suitable for the legendary dragons! From the ground, rise up! The castle of Team Plasma! Surround the Pokémon League!"''
:''"What has just appeared is Team Plasma's castle. The king's words will resound from the heights to all below. You must come to the castle, as well. Everything will be decided there. Whether Pokémon will be liberated from people, or whether Pokémon and people will live together… We will see whose belief is stronger... And our result will change the world."''

====[[N's Castle]]====
:''"What I desire is a world for Pokémon, and Pokémon alone. I will separate Pokémon from people, so Pokémon can regain their original power."
:''"It's time to settle this once and for all! My determination is absolute! I will prove the value of my beliefs even if it means my Pokémon friends get hurt! Since you've come this far, I believe you are equally determined. If that's so, prove it to me! Show me the depth of your determination!"''
:''"You came all this way to battle me… But {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} is not responding. You haven't yet been recognized as the hero, have you? How disappointing. I actually kind of liked you a little. Through our many battles, I got the feeling that you might be a Trainer who truly cares for Pokémon!"''
:''"But I was kidding myself. The idea of Trainers getting to know each other through battles is ridculous! You have two options. Challenge me to a fight you can't win, or leave this place and watch the birth of a new world where Pokémon are free of people! {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}! Come to me!"''
:''"Your Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}} is… I mean, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} is…"''
:''"Zekrom and Reshiram… They were once one life. One Pokémon. Complete opposites, yet the same. Zekrom and Reshiram are Pokémon that appear before the hero they recognize. Ah… I see. You really are a hero, too. I'll tell you what that Pokémon is saying to you. "I want to battle with you. Try to make me your friend and ally." It plans to test you to see if you are really pursuing truth{{sup/5|Bl}}/ideals{{sup/5|W}}. I, also, am curious to see how powerful you are. Now, catch {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} and make it your ally!"''
:''"Get ready! Go after it! Reshiram will incinerate people who fail to keep truth in their heart."''{{sup/5|Bl}}
:''"Get ready! Go for it! Zekrom will bare its fangs at people who fail to follow their ideals."''{{sup/5|W}}
:''"Ah… I see. {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}}, who is said to lend its power to the hero who searches for truth{{sup/5|Bl}}/ideals{{sup/5|W}}, has recognized your power and now agrees to stand by your side…"''
:''"Hold on. Your Pokémon are hurt. There is no triumph to be gained in battling a weakened opponent."''
:''"'''Now, I will create the future I desire! I shall sweep you before me!'''"''{{tt|*|Should the player lose, N will repeat this sentence and start the battle}}

* First hit
:''"Do you really think you can stop us with that?"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last friend... Please share your courage with me!"''

* Last Pokémon at low health
:''"Is the world going to choose you, and not me?!"{{sup/5|Bl}}''
:''"Is the world going to choose you-- and not me?!"{{sup/5|W}}''

* Upon defeat
:''"Everything's ruined. The ideals{{sup/5|Bl}}/truth{{sup/5|W}} I held… The dreams Pokémon shared…"''

* After battle
:''"… … {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} and I were beaten. Your truth{{sup/5|Bl}}/ideals{{sup/5|W}}… Your feelings… They were stronger than mine, it seems… Reshiram{{sup/5|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup/5|W}} and Zekrom{{sup/5|Bl}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W}}… Each of them choosing a different hero… Is that even possible? Two heroes living at the same time— one that pursues truth{{sup/5|Bl}}/ideals{{sup/5|W}} and one that pursues ideals{{sup/5|Bl}}/truth{{sup/5|W}}. Could… Could{{sup/5|Bl}}/Could…could{{sup/5|W}} they both be right? I don't know. It's not by rejecting different ideas, but by accepting different ideas that the world creates a chemical reaction. This is truly the formula for changing the world."''
:''"<player>!"''
* After defeating Ghetsis
:''"But…I have no right to be the hero!"''
:''"Acting like you understand… Up till now, we've been fighting each other over our beliefs! Yet, despite that… Why?!"''
:''"I want to talk to you about something."''
:''"It's about when I first met you in Accumula Town. I was shocked when I heard what your Pokémon was saying. I was shocked because that Pokémon said it liked you. It said it wanted to be with you."''
:''"I couldn't understand it. I couldn't believe there were Pokémon that liked people. Because, up until that moment, I'd never known a Pokémon like that. The longer my journey continued, the more unsure I became. All I kept meeting were Pokémon and people who communicated with one another and helped one another. That was why I needed to confirm my beliefs by battling with you. I wanted to confront you hero-to-hero. I needed that more than anything."''
:''"There's no way a person like me, someone who understands only Pokémon— No, actually… I didn't understand them, either. No way could I measure up to you, when you had met so many Pokémon and were surrounded by friends…"''
:''"The Champion has forgiven me, and… What I should do now is something I'll have to decide for myself."''

* In Black:
::'''Replied yes at [[Chargestone Cave]]''': ''"<Player>! You said you have a dream… That dream… Make it come true! Make your wonderful dream a reality, and it will become your truth! <Player>! If anyone can, it's you! Well, then… Farewell!"''
::'''Replied no at [[Chargestone Cave]]''': ''"Dream your dream! Follow the path of truth to make that dream a reality, and someday you will achieve all that you dreamed of! Well, then... Farewell!"''

* In White:
::'''Replied yes at [[Chargestone Cave]]''': ''"<Player>! You said you have a dream… That dream… Make it come true! Wonderful dreams and ideals give you the power to change the world! If anyone can, it's you! <Player>! Well, then… Farewell!"''
::'''Replied no at [[Chargestone Cave]]''': ''"Dream your dream! Then, pursue the ideals to make that dream a reality, and someday you will achieve all that you dreamed of! Well then… Farewell!"''

=====Meeting Friends, Saying Good-Bye=====
:''"Thank you, my friend. Return to the peaceful life you lived before."''
:''"I can't... I just can't keep Pokémon confined in Poké Balls! Also, if they stay with their Trainers, Pokémon will battle, and they will be hurt... Even if it is for changing the world to protect Pokémon... It's too hard for me to put them through so much pain..."''
:''"Who decided that catching Pokémon and making them battle each other is how the world works? That wasn't how things were before Poké Balls were invented... The rules that govern this world are wrong!"''
:''(To {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt|grunt}}) "Not yet! The world hasn't changed yet! The time to free your Pokémon will be when I befriend the Unova region's legendary {{Type|Dragon}} Pokémon, surpass the {{pkmn|Champion}}, and become the hero!"''
:''"I will separate Pokémon and people, and black and white will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! But then why... Why did those Pokémon seem so sad to leave me?"''
:''"<linked player>! Is it because of that Trainer that my heart wavers now? Were the words of the Pokémon in Accumula Town really true? Does that mean <linked player> is an ideal Trainer?"'''
:''"The cries of the suffering Pokémon filling that room... The borderline between Pokémon and humans... I exist on that line. I live in the margins between everyone, so I will save them! I will change the world! And to that end, I must fight to the finish with <linked player>"'''

=====White and Black=====
:''"I'm here though..."'''
:''"I've been worried about the people who believed in me... But it seems they know what they can do for Pokémon in their own ways."'''
:''"Compared to them... What was I doing? What I really should have done was tell people how Pokémon feel...! The legendary Dragon-type Pokémon knew that. It has lived long and known many people. It knew humans and Pokémon have lived and will live together. It knew that in this relationship, humans' actions have an enormous impact on Pokémon. That's why it helps the one who searches for the ideal{{sup/5|B}}/truth{{sup/5|W}}... the one who opens the way to the future."'''
:''"It's not necessary... Separating the black from white and humans from Pokémon! If you think in terms of each individual life, this world was in a state that couldn't be divided any further. Possibilities are born out of combining and fusing these different lives! There are some things we can understand only by doing this. It will give form to unseen things. These formulas will restructure the world and make it richer!"'''
:''"From their Poké Balls, I can hear the many different feelings Pokémon have about their Trainers! More than anything, I can hear their joy that they met people who need them!"'''

By being with Pokémon, humans can continue toward new horizons. By being with humans, Pokémon can exhibit their true power. That's what Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} taught me: the ideal{{sup/5|B2}}/truth{{sup/5|W2}} for Pokémon and me.

Everyone can see what wonderful things the others have to contribute! That's right! Accepting different ideas--different beings--changes the world like a chemical reaction! Pokémon battles are like a catalyst: a small component that leads to big changes! My friend Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} taught me that...

=====N's Room=====
:''"This place... was my world."''
:''"When I was little, I was abandoned deep in the woods."''
:''"The ones who took me in and raised me were the Pokémon who lived there."''
:''"Then, one day, a man appeared, claiming to be my father. That was...Ghetsis."''

*While walking
:''"I remember...This is the place where Anthea and Concordia took care of me as a child. The Seven Sages all taught me different things..."''

=====Throne Room=====
:''"That's the place!"''
:''"It was two years ago. For the sake of Pokémon... For my ideal world... I put my beliefs on the line and battle a certain Trainer! And I lost... But at the same time, I learned something important. To make a the world better,you must accept different ideas."'''

:''"Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}, come!"''
:"''Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} always want to know what ideals{{sup/5|B2}}/truths{{sup/5|W2}} you seek and how good of a trainer you are."''
*Before battle
:''"Battle with me. Are you prepared?"''
:'''No''': ''"I'm ready whenever you are! I'll wait as long as it takes!"''
:'''Yes''': ''"Show me the depth of your determination!"''
'''After battle'''
:''"Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} and I were defeated. You feelings, your desire to know the truth— that's what surpassed us. Battling with you reminded me of two years ago..."''
:''"It may just be a little, but I know you better... That's how I feel.
*To Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}
:''"And Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}...thanks for everything. My journey with you has been truly wonderful! From now on, I want you to use your power to help this Trainer realize his/her dreams."''
:''"I know. I'll miss you, too... But your task is to help humans who seek ideals{{sup/5|B2}}/truth{{sup/5|W2}}. I learned so much from you. I'll do my best to tell everyone else what I learned on my own."''
:''"'I'll be OK! I can talk to Pokémon!"''
:''"I'll become the bridge between Pokémon and Humans! That's my ideal{{sup/5|B2}}/truth{{sup/5|W2}}!"''

'''First time'''
:''"How surprising... I didn't expect you'd come here."''
:''"Well, that is the formula for understanding other Trainers, after all... You're OK with a Pokémon battle, right?"''
'''Second time onwards'''
:''"Your Pokémon are saying they want to battle with my friend..."''
:''"What would you like to do? Will you have a Pokémon battle with me?"''
'''Either way'''
:'''''Yes'''''
:''"Good..."''
:'''''No'''''
:''"Very well... You're free to choose that, too."''
'''During battle'''
*After damaging his Pokémon
:''"More! Let me hear the voice of your Pokémon!"''
*Last Pokémon
:''"For the sake of my friend who saved me, I will never give up!"''
*Defeated
:''"Your Pokémon are happy... They are happy to be with you."''
'''After battle'''
:''"I remember something Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} told me once..."''
:''"Zekrom and Reshiram are searching for new possibilities by walking alongside humans..."''
:''"Meanwhile, those that live in the wild try to better themselves without relying on anyone else."''
:''"There are many different Pokémon..."''
:''"And their different ways of living... That is the true freedom of Pokémon. That is what connects Pokémon to us."''
:''"I will set off on another journey."''
:''"There are still many Pokémon in the world I should talk to."''
:''"And there is also a Trainer I want to tell how I feel..."''

====At Dragonspiral Tower====
*After Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} is caught
:''"Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} has recognized you as the new hero. That right! As a Trainer with the will strong enough to change to world! I have something to tell you. Go to [[Giant Chasm]]! Kyurem has returned. That's what my friend had told me."''
:''"<Player>! The world that you desire for Pokémon and humans... I look forward to seeing how full of love that world is."''
:''"Someday... Pokémon and humans will be bound together without Poké Balls. They will simply trust and help one another. Make that kind of world."''

====Ferris Wheel - Friday====
'''First time'''
:''"This sure takes me back..."''
:''"You! Ride this Ferris wheel with me!"''
'''Subsequent times'''
:''"I love Ferris wheels."''
:''"So, you there! Come with me!"''

:(N and player enter Ferris wheel)
:''"You... remind me of that Trainer."''
:''"Now that I think about it, we both rode this Ferris wheel, too."''
:''"Making dreams come true is hard... I wonder if we will meet again..."''
:(N and player exit Ferris wheel)

'''First time'''
:''"...That made me remember that day. ...Sorry. I'll be going."''
'''Subsequent times'''
:''"Ferris wheels sure are great."''
:''"But that can't be proved with numbers. It's the {{wp|incompleteness theorem}}..."''

{{main|N (anime)}}
[[File:N anime.png|200px|thumb|right|N in the anime]]
N appears as a recurring character in the [[Pokémon anime]]. He is a mysterious young man with the ability to understand what Pokémon are saying. After encountering {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}}, N joins them on their search for the [[White Ruins]] and their battle against [[Team Plasma]].
{{-}}

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:N Adventures.png|thumb|right|150px|N as he appears in Pokémon Adventures]]
N first appears in ''[[PS464|Black's First Trainer Battle]]'', where he watches {{adv|Black}} set off to battle his first Gym. After Black manages to save an [[Xtransceiver]] commercial shooting from a wild {{p|Galvantula}} attack, N sheds tears from seeing Pokémon being used by humans.

In [[Accumula Town]], N appears to confront and battle Black. He expresses his disgust at the Pokédex by claiming that Trainers lock up his "friends" in Poké Balls to fill the Pokédex with information, thus making them nothing more than a source for said information. Eventually, Black's [[Tep]] manages to defeat his Tympole, so N decides to take his leave after learning that there are Pokémon that enjoy the company of Trainers. After leaving, Black reveals that N isn't really a bad person after his [[Musha]] used his ability to eat dreams and show the contents of them to others.

At [[Nimbasa City]], N knocks {{adv|White}} into one of the Ferris wheel cars and climbs into it. After a brief talk, N forces White's [[Gigi]] to fight his Servine. After Gigi wins, N concludes that White had been neglecting Gigi's battle skills. When White tries to escape, she is shocked to see Gigi side with N instead of her and falls hard to ground below. As the two watch from the Rondez-View Ferris wheel, N sends his Servine to White's aid.

Later, N and Gigi arrive at the [[Dragonspiral Tower]]. As he stares at the building, N muses over the location where Truth and Ideals meet while Gigi watches him. Later, he successfully awakens Zekrom, but initially has trouble connecting with it and convincing it to join his side. Eventually, he manages to convince it to join his cause, making him the Hero of Ideals. At {{rt|6|Unova}}, N encounters [[Alder]] and challenges the Champion to a Double Battle. As they battle, Black, White, and [[Iris]] all arrive to witness N defeating Alder with Zorua and Gigi. Reacting to N's Zekrom, the Light Stone in Black's possession turns into Reshiram, but quickly reverts, signifying that Black doesn't have full control over it. Having defeated the Pokémon League Champion, N believes that more people will listen Team Plasma's ideal.

As he attempts to leave, N is attacked by a {{p|Samurott}} owned by [[Cedric Juniper]] who demands to know where the captured Gym Leaders are. Together, Black, White, and Cedric defeat Gigi and Zorua. Cedric reveals that a year ago, N broke into his lab and liberated the set of starter Pokémon that he was going to give to new Trainers, leaving Snivy with N, Tepig in an unknown location, and Oshawott to stay with Cedric. N accuses Professor Juniper as the cause of the suffering of Pokémon with her distributing of starters, but is stopped by Black's Pokémon. Before they can do anything, N points that they can't win, causing Black's team to back off. Confused, Black attempts to use Musha to clear his head and allow him to think properly, but the Dream Eater Pokémon simply runs away. N reveals that Musha doesn't like the taste of Black's dreams anymore, so he has no reason to stay at Black's side anymore. The shock of his Pokémon leaving him causes Black to faint from the shock. N leaves on Zekrom and has his Pokémon take the third Unova Pokédex and destroy it. As he flies away, N hears Zekrom's voice and learns that it wants to battle Black again when he has Reshiram fully awakened.

Once the League tournament ended, Team Plasma begins their attack by summoning their castle from the depths of the earth. N, along with the Seven Sages begin their assault as the Grunts surround the people below. Black, having awakened Reshiram, battles N at the top of the castle. Black initially has trouble fighting with Reshiram, but gets help from Cedric Juniper to better learn Reshiram's types and Abilities. By exploiting the power of {{m|Fusion Flare}}, Black deals heavy damage to Zekrom, but it and N escape to inside the castle with Black and Reshiram following after. Once inside, the two continue their battle, but a second Zekrom appears to assist the first, much to the shock of both. Black sees through the ruse and attacks the real Zekrom, defeating it. The second Zekrom reveals itself to be Zorua, who had remained to help N despite him releasing all of his friends prior to the attack on the League. Black tells N that despite the release, Zorua truly cares for N and wants to stay with it. N understands Zorua's wishes, but quickly passes out. After Black defeats Ghetsis and meets up with White, N awakens. He thanks Black and White for helping him see the error of his ways. He decides to go on his own path and bids them farewell as he leaves on Zekrom's back, leaving Zorua behind.

After being stolen by the Shadow Triad, the Dark Stone was delivered by Ghetsis to N, who immediately revived Zekrom from it. Although initially hostile towards N, Zekrom eventually turned over to N's side and chose him as the Hero of Ideals. When Black obtained the Light Stone, Zekrom expressed the desire to fight Black as the Hero of Truth once he fully awakened Reshiram. Zekrom's wish was granted at the Pokémon League, where it and N fought Black and Reshiram atop of N's Castle. Since Black didn't have full control over Reshiram, he initially struggled, but eventually Zekrom was defeated when Reshiram fired a {{m|Fusion Flare}}, made stronger by {{m|Fusion Bolt}}, at it. At the end of the Black and White chapter, N said his goodbyes and flew off on Zekrom after learning the error of his ways.

===In the Pocket Monsters BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder manga===
[[File:N FAT.png|thumb|N in Pocket Monsters BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder]]
N appears in every chapter of [[Pocket Monsters BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder]] as the king of [[Team Plasma]], known for harshly punishing any failure by grunts and wishing to turn [[Unova]] into a country inhabited only by Pokémon. He is first seen wearing a cape in a town in Unova, where he is approached by Shin who asks him for a battle, impressed by his {{p|Purrloin}}. He responds that he is not a Pokémon Trainer, but merely a Traveler. Several Team Plasma grunts then appear and snatch up his Purrloin, not realising that he is their boss. Shin is angry about them stealing Pokémon, but N states that he should not get involved because it'd be dangerous for him, but Shin replies that he doesn't mind.

As they follow the grunts, N questions Shin's reasons for desperately trying to rescue his Purrloin if he is just a Pokémon Trainer who uses Pokémon as tools, to which he replies that traveling together with a Pokémon is just more fun. N overhears a pair of {{p|Pidove}} talking, to which Shin begs N to teach him how to understand Pokémon language, leading N to call him an odd Pokémon Trainer.

Catching up with Togari in a rocky plateau, he wonders why humans give orders to Pokémon to make them hurt each other, and tells Shin he is just saving Pokémon to make himself feel good, which he rejects, stating that being with a Pokémon is more fun for both the Trainer and the Pokémon as N hears Shin and his {{TP|Shin|Tepig}}'s voices in unison.
N feels that Shin is stirring some emotion within him, saying that Shin really is an odd Pokémon Trainer for getting Purrloin back for him, and Shin decides to travel together with N as his journey will be more fun if they're together.

The second chapter starts as Shin and N are trying to return a {{p|Blitzle}} to its {{p|Zebstrika}} herd, but though having being asked to by the Blitzle, the Zebstrika are too scared to think because they are humans. N, realising this when Shin attacks with his {{p|Pignite}}, jumps in the way and takes the attack instead, getting severely burned upon his arms. He says that despite being in pain, it's fine if to stop a Pokémon from being hurt, explaining his dream to create a world where Pokémon can live happily by using the power of legendary Pokémon.

Shin replies that it's a dream he'll support too, but N advises him to find his own dream. As they arrive at [[Dragonspiral Tower]], N and Shin are separated by a falling pillar. N suggests that they should each make their separate way to the top floor where the legendary Pokémon resides, but as Shin tries to ascend the tower, he is met by Togari who blocks him upon the orders of his "King"—to give him time to befriend Zekrom.

Finally, Shin arrives, and is surprised that no-one is there but N. N introduces Shin to his new friend who will fulfill his dream, {{p|Zekrom}}, this time stating in full that his dream is to free Pokémon from foolish humans and create a place they can live happily by making a country just for Pokémon. Shin realises his dream is the same as the dream of the "King" of [[Team Plasma]], to which N replies is him himself, and argues that there is no other choice as the world as it exists just gets Pokémon hurt. As he flies off upon Zekrom's back, he tells Shin that though he despises humans, Shin alone he'll allow to live in the world he creates.

In chapters three and four N is shown standing on the rubble of the Pokémon League having defeated the Elite Four and states [[Alder]] is next; and is explained by Alder that N told him that nobody but a Pokémon Trainer by the name of Shin could stand up to him, and sent Alder to help him become the Hero of Fire by controlling Reshiram.

In the final chapter Shin arrives at the secret headquarters of [[Team Plasma]], [[N's Castle]] to fight N. N decides that Shin is after all just another human who cannot hear the weeping voices of Pokémon, summoning Zekrom to do battle and easily defeating Shin, saying that the strength of the legendary Pokémon depend on how strong their hero's ideal or truth is, with his being the strongest having heard the weeping voices of Pokémon for so long, and the pain of separation will be only an instant of pain among a future free of it, as while humans live together with Pokémon, there will always be Pokémon hurt and crying somewhere.

Shin replies that if he was a real hero he'd save everyone, not just Pokémon, to which N replies that if that is true, show him his resolution through Reshiram. However, Shin gets defeated again, with him and Reshiram getting trapped under rubble, and {{p|Emboar}} unable to produce a flame. Yet he proclaims that he'll never give in until the very end, and Reshiram sets Emboar's fist on fire with its flame, to give it the power to attack through Zekrom's shield of thunder. However, as Emboar attempts to punch through it, instead it combines with the flame on his fist to become a piece of the Original Pokémon's power, a ball of flaming thunder, and Shin states that while N may be strong alone, Emboar's power now is a power they have only created by everyone working together, and Emboar punches out Zekrom.

Some time later, N lies together with Shin on the roof of his castle, realising that perhaps the world is not as black and white as he calculated, and that he will disband Team Plasma and rework his ideals over again from the start. Admitting that he too enjoyed their battle, he bids farewell to Shin as he flies off on Zekrom, wishing that perhaps one day they may meet and battle again.

====Pokémon====
N refuses to call the Pokémon he befriends "his Pokémon," instead naming them "his friends."

==Trivia==
{{bulbanews|Junichi Masuda reveals information on N}}
* The cube hanging from N's belt is a sliding puzzle similar to a {{wp|Void Cube}}, and has been in his possession since childhood. It's one of many design elements reflecting the character's mathematical motif, and also resembles the first iteration of a {{wp|Menger sponge}}, a geometric figure that simultaneously has infinite surface area and zero volume.
** N's concept artwork and the accompanying notes indicate that the puzzle cube might have been relevant to the game's plot at one point and was going to show a central cube with a keyhole that would appear when the puzzle was solved.
* Counting from middle C = 1, the notes in the four ascending arpeggios at the start of N's battle themes correspond to the first eight prime numbers (D, E, G, B, F', A', E<nowiki>'', G''</nowiki> = 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19).
* According to [[Junichi Masuda]], N is rumored to have been born from Pokémon.<ref name="Masuda blog 539 (English)">http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?m=201110</ref>
* N, [[Bianca]], and [[Cheren]] are the only Trainers in {{game|Black and White|s}} with animated battle sprites.
* Unlike most recurring characters, N battles with a completely different team in every appearance. This stems from his belief that Pokémon should not be used as tools, as every Pokémon he uses (except for the last battle against him) can be found in the surrounding area.
* Even if the player battles his Zekrom or Reshiram in Easy Mode or Challenge Mode, where it is levels 65 and 75 respectively, it will still be level 70 when the player battles it at Dragonspiral Tower.
* N has used all 17 [[type]]s of Pokémon that existed in Generation V.
* Of the four seasonal teams he uses in Black 2 and White 2, his winter team is the only one to have a Pokémon introduced in Generation V: {{p|Vanilluxe}}.
* Over the course of the games he appears in, N uses Pokémon of 42 different {{OBP|Pokémon|species|species}}, more than any other NPC in the Pokémon games.
* N is fought more times than any other villainous team leader. However, he uses the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|As a Trainer class|Pokémon Trainer}} class during his first two battles.
* N is the only villainous team leader who keeps his Japanese name.
* N speaks very quickly, as indicated by the fact that his dialogue is printed faster than that of other characters and by Cheren's comment upon first meeting him: "Slow down. You talk too fast." Regardless of what speed the player has the dialogue set at, N's dialogue prints at the fastest speed. If the dialogue is set to "fast," N's speech will print even faster.
* According to [[Junichi Masuda]], N is rumored to have been born from Pokémon.<ref name="Masuda blog 539 (English)">http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?m=201110</ref>
* N is 1.80 m tall (5'11").
* An article in the May 2013 edition of ''PASH!'' estimated that N is about 20 years old.
* N's [[Trainer ID number]] is 00002.

'''AZ''' (Japanese: '''AZ''') is a mysterious man who appears in [[Pokémon X and Y]]. He is the former king of the [[Kalos]] region and the creator of the ultimate weapon.

==In the games==
AZ is first seen on {{rt|13|Kalos}}. When the player encounters him, he mutters about "the flower Pokémon," then leaves.

He appears once again much later, being held prisoner by [[Lysandre]] in the lowest levels of [[Lysandre Labs]]. When he is found, he explains the story of Kalos's history from three thousand years prior: there once was a man who had a Pokémon he loved very much. A war broke out in Kalos, and that Pokémon went to fight in the war, where it was killed. The man received the body of his beloved Pokémon some time later, and out of unspeakable grief, he built a giant device to restore it to life. He succeeded, but he was unable to overcome his despair and turned the machine into a weapon, with which he destroyed both sides of the war to bring it to an end. His Pokémon, disgusted with the fact that his machine was powered by the life energy of Pokémon, left him. Lysandre reveals that AZ's name is the same as the king from three thousand years ago, and that he had the key to the weapon around his neck; Lysandre has taken him prisoner and claimed the key in order to use the weapon to destroy all of humanity except for [[Team Flare]].

After the player defeats Lysandre once and for all in the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] beneath [[Geosenge Town]], AZ, now freed from his prison, approaches and thanks them for stopping the weapon from being used again.

AZ makes a final appearance in [[Lumiose City]] after the player has defeated [[Diantha]] and become [[Champion]]. During the parade arranged by [[Professor Sycamore]] to celebrate the player's success, AZ approaches the stage and challenges the player to a battle, wishing to learn about what a [[Trainer]] truly is. After the battle, AZ smiles, thanking the player for freeing him from his long torment - thus revealing that he is indeed the man from his story. Just then, he spots a sparkle in the sky; having sensed the liberation of AZ's heart, his beloved {{p|Floette}} - who was granted eternal life alongside him three thousand years ago - finally returns to him. AZ collapses to his knees, overjoyed that his Pokémon has finally returned.

'''Alexa''' (Japanese: '''パンジー''' ''Pansy'') is a journalist from [[Lumiose City]] in [[Pokémon X and Y]].

==In the games==
Alexa appears in [[Pokémon X and Y]], working for a company as a journalist from [[Lumiose City]]. Her sister is the [[Santalune City]] [[Gym Leader]], [[Viola]].
Alexa is first met in Santalune City, where she prevents the player from going to {{rt|4|Kalos}} until her sister, [[Viola]], is defeated. After Viola is defeated, she will let the player pass and also give them an [[Experience Share]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Alexa anime.png|thumb|left|Alexa in the anime]]
[[File:Alexa magazine.png|thumb|left|A magazine detailing Alexa's journalism]]
Alexa first appeared in ''[[BW134|The Journalist from Another Region!]]'', with her {{p|Gogoat}} and {{p|Helioptile}}.

When Helioptile bumped into {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} on [[Harvest Island]], Ash used his {{AP|Pikachu}} to battle it, but Helioptile fired an electric move, then Alexa arrived with Gogoat, and mentioned that the Helioptile is hers. Since both of Alexa's Pokémon were not native to the region at the time, Ash's Pokédex could not recognize them. Alexa then introduced herself, and mentioned that she came all the way from the [[Kalos]] region to write an article about the [[Grand Harvest Festival]], which was the tradition of Harvest Island.

While there, she learned about a [[Pokémon Sumo Tournament]] that was going to take place there. When Ash was bumped by [[Rodney]], who became Ash's new rival for the tournament, Alexa comforted him. At the end of the tournament, when Ash had won, Alexa had filmed the tournament, including Ash giving Rodney an apple after he lost. After the tournament was officially finished, Alexa decided to travel with the group.

In ''[[BW135|Mystery on a Deserted Island!]]'', she went to an {{OBP|Unnamed island|BW135|island}} with the group where it was known to have some treasure. After arrival, she filmed some footage about a sunken ship there and then passed through a gate that took her to some wild Pokémon that evolved from some stones. Continuing onward with a group of three {{p|Eevee}}, she found a secret passageway which led her to the treasure chest. After Alexa found the treasure and got the Eevee to evolve, the Pokémon began to respect her and the others on the island. Afterwards, she left with the group and waved her farewells to the Pokémon.

In ''[[BW136|A Pokémon of a Different Color!]],'' after Alexa arrived on [[Cave Island]], she temporarily left the group and rode on her Gogoat to find something to film. At the end of the episode, she returned to Ash and his friends and as she missed out on a {{Shiny}} {{p|Druddigon}} who lived on the island, [[Clair]] showed the Druddigon to her as she caught it earlier.

In ''[[BW138|Go, Go Gogoat!]],'' it was revealed that Gogoat was Alexa's first Pokémon; she caught it after it helped her back up a cliff to her campsite.

In [[BW141]], while Ash parted ways with {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}}, Alexa remained with him and followed him to [[Pallet Town]]. The [[BW142|next episode]], she tells Ash that [[Viola|her sister]] is a [[Gym Leader]] in the Kalos region. At the end of the {{series|Best Wishes}}, Alexa accompanies Ash as he travels to Kalos.

In ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', Alexa arrived in [[Kalos]] with Ash by plane. When Ash wanted to challenge her sister, Alexa explained that her gym isn't in [[Lumiose City]], but rather [[Santalune City]] instead. She then makes a call off-screen to her sister, but reveals to Ash that she'll be gone for a while. After showing Ash the map of Lumiose City, she parts ways with Ash and wishes him good luck.

Alexa is set to re-appear in ''[[XY005]]'' and ''[[XY006]]'' to watch Ash's battle against Viola.

===Character===
Since her debut, Alexa is shown to be rather forgetful, a trait her Gogoat seems to have gotten used to. She carries out her work with pleasure as well as seriousness, often working late into the night. In [[BW141]] she became so engrossed in her work that she failed to realize the crisis Team Rocket was causing. She gets along very well with Ash, calming him down after his confrontation with [[Rodney]] and comforting him after saying farewell to Iris and Cilan. She is very cheerful and is often smiling and enthusiastic.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Alexa's Pokémon in the [[Pokémon anime]].

|desc={{p|Helioptile}} is Alexa's first known Pokémon. It is very shy, and often hides behind Alexa when it encounters something new. Helioptile first appeared jumping out of a flower field after getting lost, where it encountered {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. When Ash tried to capture it, Helioptile became scared and attacked him in retaliation, until Alexa came and explained that Helioptile belonged to her. Later, Helioptile acted as a charger when Alexa needed to charge her recording equipment after the battery was low.

While was initially hesitant of Ash, Helioptile would eventually befriend him as Alexa predicted, running into the young Trainer's arms in [[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]. In [[BW142]] Helioptile showed it had developed a good relationship with {{AP|Pikachu}}, often linking their electricity. When {{an|Professor Oak}} began to study Helioptile, he was shocked by the timid Pokémon.

Helioptile will return alongside her trainer in [[XY005]] and [[XY006]]

Helioptile's known moves are {{m|Parabolic Charge}}.}}

During her travels in the [[Grand Harvest Festival]] on [[Harvest Island]], Gogoat helped Alexa find where she had placed the magazine showing examples of her work. It later also helped her find her recording equipment in order for it to get charged.

In ''[[BW138|Go, Go Gogoat!]],'' Gogoat was briefly left under the care of {{Ash}}, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} while Alexa was reporting on the Pokémon Center. Since they knew little about Gogoat, it became distant to the group. A boy named [[Tony]] approached Gogoat and bonded with it by touching its horns. Gogoat helped take Tony to go see his [[Tony's parents|father]] and later went back to its Trainer.

In [[BW142]], Gogoat allowed {{an|Professor Oak}} to ride on its back as he studied it.

Noivern was then fed and returned to its Poké Ball. Noivern is completely loyal to Alexa but will bite someone if it isn't fed immediately after work.

Noivern's known moves are {{m|Dragon Pulse}}, {{m|Bite}}, and {{m|Boomburst}}.}}

Weather Institute

[[File:Weather Institute RS.png|thumb|The Weather Institute in Ruby and Sapphire]]
The '''Weather Institute''' (Japanese: '''てんきけんきゅうじょ''' ''Weather Research Institute'') is a weather research building located on {{rt|119|Hoenn}} in the region of [[Hoenn]], in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

The Weather Institute is like a bureau for the Hoenn region. It checks and keeps track of weather conditions throughout Hoenn. Its main project is the weather control machine which allows them to change the weather in areas. The Weather Institute has created a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} named {{p|Castform}} which can do this.

==Geography==
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, on the first trip through Route 119, the {{player}} will find that [[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|Sa}} or [[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|Ru}} have invaded the Institute, looking for information about {{p|Kyogre}} or {{p|Groudon}}, respectively, and the rare Pokémon, Castform. The team has also blockaded the bridge, preventing further progress. The team must be defeated, and Castform received, before advancing to [[Fortree City]].

In {{game|Emerald}}, like in Pokémon Sapphire, Team Aqua must be defeated before further progress can be made. Again, once they are defeated, Castform will be given to the player. This facility is used to find Groudon and Kyogre after defeating the [[Elite Four]]. By speaking to the meteorologist inside, players will learn of unusual weather patterns in certain routes. If he says there is a drought, Groudon slumbers in the [[Terra Cave]]; if downpours are coming down, Kyogre awaits in the [[Marine Cave]]. The other [[legendary Pokémon]] cannot be located until the first is captured or defeated.

The Weather Institute has two accessible stories, both with many desks and computers. On the far left side of the bottom floor is a [[PC]] and bed which can heal the Pokémon in one's [[party]].

===First floor===
Upon entering, the first floor is accessible. By going west along the entrance hallway, there will be another opening to three rooms. The room on the western side is a rest area which contains a [[PC]] and bed which can heal the Pokémon in a Trainer's [[party]].

The room on the eastern side is the research area where scientists work on projects and study weather patterns within the region. There are four workstations each containing a computer. There is also a computer positioned at the north side of the room, that will study and record all weather patterns within the [[Hoenn]] region. On the north-western corner of the room, there are bookshelves crammed with books and there are plants scattered around the room. The stairs to the second floor is located on the north-western corner of the room.

===Second floor===
More workstations are located on this floor along with the head of the Weather Institute's office being up here. In total, there are ten workstations each containing a computer, one of them however is missing a chair. On the north-western corner of the room, there are bookshelves crammed with books and there are plants scattered around the room.

Right on the far western side of the room is the head of the Weather Institute's office. This is the location that [[Team Magma]]/[[Team Aqua]] rounded up the residents and scientists of the Weather Institute.

===Castform===
Once the player defeats the villainous team and saves the Weather Institute, the professor of the institute will give the player a Castform.

In ''[[AG083|Unfair Weather Friends]]'', {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} travel to the Weather Institute, where they get caught up in a takeover by Team Aqua. Team Aqua plans to steal all of the weather data but its plan is stopped by a disguised Team Magma member named [[Brodie]], who escapes with the data himself.

The Weather Institute contains many rooms with many different machines. A weather data machine stores data like temperature and weather patterns on a large computer so they can do tests and experiments later. There is a huge satellite outside the institute called the Weather Control Machine that can control the weather. There is also a study filled with books and scrap paper.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Ruby}}, along with a male {{tc|Swimmer}}, ended up behind the Weather Institute while escaping from a wild {{p|Zangoose}} and {{p|Seviper}}. It was there that [[Norman]] had tracked Ruby down and battled him.

==Trivia==
* A woman in {{rt|212|Sinnoh}} west of [[Pastoria City]] in [[Sinnoh]] says she used to work at the Weather Institute of Hoenn. She will trade [[TM]]s of weather-changing moves for shards.

This is the house where the {{player}} lives before beginning their journey. The [[Mom|player's mother]] lives here, and after the player has left town for the first time, going home and talking to her will fully rest/restore all of the player's Pokémon, just like a [[Pokémon Center]].

There are two levels to the house, the first being a living room and kitchen area, while upstairs on the second level is the player's [[bedroom]]. It contains a [[Wii]] controlled with a [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]], connected to a [[television]], and a [[PC]] which reads: ''"Pokémon Basics... People live alongside Pokémon in this world. The people that battle Pokémon are called Pokémon Trainers."'' Due to the PC no longer having the item storage functionality, {{ga|Lucas}} or {{ga|Dawn}}'s PC only gives hints on how to play the game. A sign on the wall next to the stairs reads:
<center>{{sign|DPtip|header}}
{{sign|DPtip|The X Button}}
{{sign|DPtip|opens the menu!}}
{{sign|DPtip|footer}}</center>

[[File:Player Bedroom DPPt.png|thumb|left|The player's bedroom is located upstairs. The player begins the game in here]]
===Rival's house===
This is the house where the player's rival and his mother reside in. Like the player's house, there are two levels, the first being a living room and kitchen area, while upstairs on the second level is the rival's bedroom.

==In the anime==
[[File:Twinleaf Town anime.png|thumb|220px|right|Twinleaf Town in the anime]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Twinleaf Town is the [[hometown]] of {{an|Dawn}}, her [[Mom#In the anime|mother]] [[Johanna]], her childhood friend and {{pkmn|Contest}} [[rival]] {{si|Kenny}}, and {{an|Barry}}. [[Izzy and Cara|Izzy, Cara]], and [[Sayer]] also live here. It debuted in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]''; Dawn left the town to go to [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab in [[Sandgem Town]] to receive her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]]. {{DL|Grand Festival|Top Coordinator}} Johanna teaches a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} class in the town. She has a battlefield behind her house for instructing her students.

Dawn returned for [[Twinleaf Festival|the town's annual festival]] in ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''. The [[Ash's friends|group]] spent four episodes in Twinleaf, where, together with Barry, they participated in the festival's {{pkmn|battle}} tournament. Ash eventually won the tournament, thus earning the chance to battle {{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}}. However, the [[Frontier Brain]] proved stronger and defeated him.

The town was visited again in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'', where Ash and {{an|Brock}} boarded the ship sailing towards the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. As observed by Ash, Twinleaf Town is very similar to [[Pallet Town]], having dirt trails and wide open grass fields.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Twinleaf Town is the hometown of {{adv|Diamond}}, [[Johanna]] who is Diamond's mother, {{adv|Pearl}} and supposedly {{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}}, who is Pearl's father.

==Trivia==
* Twinleaf's Japanese motto is {{tt|わかばがいぶくばしょ|Where new leaves breathe}}.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, footprints can be seen after walking on the snow, but [[bicycle]] tracks cannot.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, a rearranged, music-box version of the background music of Twinleaf Town can be played on the [[Villa decoration|Music Box]] that can be obtained at the [[Villa]] in the [[Resort Area]].
* Despite the player's and the rival's house having two chimneys, neither of the houses have a fireplace.
* The roads of this town form the kanji 土 (earth, soil).

'''Lilycove City''' (Japanese: '''ミナモシティ''' ''Minamo City'') is located in eastern [[Hoenn]] and is one of the many cities that is connected to the sea.

Despite Lilycove lacking a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]], it offers a wide range of attractions. The Hoenn region's [[Department Store]], the [[Lilycove Department Store]], is located at the top of the hills offering numerous amounts of supplies for visiting Trainers. Lilycove houses a harbor in which the [[S.S. Tidal]] provides transportation to [[Slateport City]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}. Lilycove also houses the [[Lilycove Museum]] and the [[Cove Lily Motel]] for tourists to stay in. Finally, it is home to the Move Deleter.

Lilycove is located southeast of {{ci|Fortree}}, near the sea. The western entrance of the city is {{rt|121|Hoenn}}, leading to [[Mt. Pyre]] and the {{safari|Hoenn}}. To the east is {{rt|124|Hoenn}}, the open sea, and the [[Aqua Hideout|hideout]] of either [[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}} or [[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|R}}.

==Places of interest==
[[File:Lilycove City RS.png|thumb|200px|left|Lilycove City in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}]]
===Pokémon Contest Hall===
{{main|Contest Hall}}
[[File:Contest Hall RS.png|thumb|200px|The Lilycove Contest Hall in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}]]
One of the major features in Lilycove is the grand [[Contest Hall]], which, in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} holds the Master rank [[Pokémon Contest]]s, while in {{game|Emerald}}, all of the [[Pokémon Contest]]s take place here. It is located in the southern half of the city, south of the [[Pokémon Center]] and west of the Cove Lily Motel. These Contests attract many prize-winning Trainers and Pokémon from around the country to watch and participate in the events. A lot of citizens are honored to have the hall located right at their doorstep. Inside, there are two reception counters and four [[Berry Blender]]s for making [[Pokéblock]]s. There are also photo frames for winning Pokémon, that are painted by a skilled artist. People are also allowed to watch Pokémon Contests as they take place by going their one of two audience entrances.

People can also enter Contests here, however some credentials and [[Ribbon]]s may be needed to enter some Contests. A {{pkmn|Coordinator}} enters {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in one of five [[Contest categories|categories]]: [[Cool Contest|Coolness]], [[Beauty Contest|Beauty]], [[Cute Contest|Cuteness]], [[Smart Contest|Smartness]], or [[Tough Contest|Toughness]] and compete against three other Coordinators in two rounds. First, the audience preliminarily votes on which four competing Pokémon looks the coolest, most beautiful, cutest, smartest, or toughest, depending on what category the Contest is in. Attributes that the audience likes and the Pokémon's overall luster also beneficially influences the audience. In the secondary phase, the four Pokémon take turns [[appeal]]ing, using certain [[moves]] in front of an appointed judge. In one Contest, there are five rounds of Appealing, in which each Pokémon may make appeals once or not at all, depending on the moves it and the other Pokémon have used in the previous round.

The player must win Pokémon Contests in order, starting with Normal Rank in [[Verdanturf Town]], then the Super Rank in [[Fallarbor Town]], then the Hyper Rank in [[Slateport City]], and then finally the Master Rank in Lilycove City. The player must enter one of their Pokémon one of the five Contest categories, and win all of the Contests in that category and receive the corresponding Ribbon. In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, if the player scores high enough while at the same time winning a Master Rank [[Pokémon Contest]], an artist will come and talk to him or her, saying that he has painted the Pokémon that won. After winning the Master Rank, the painter located in the [[Contest Hall]] will then paint the player's Pokémon, and put it on display in the museum. As more paintings are put up, more people come into the museum, eventually prompting the curator to give the aforesaid item.

===Cove Lily Motel===
{{main|Cove Lily Motel}}
[[File:Cove Lily Motel E.png|thumb|200px|The Cove Lily Motel]]
The Cove Lily Motel is a local motel in Lilycove. It is located east of the Contest Hall. Due to the fact that [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] were situated in Lilycove City, the city has become an unpopular tourist destination for a time, so the Cove Lily Motel has become empty. However, once the villainous teams were scared away by the player, the Game Freak staff decided to stay there after the player beats the [[Elite Four]].

The motel has a very simple layout. The lower level only contains a man watching a TV set. If the player attempts to check the TV, he or she will be shoved away by the man for blocking his view. The upper level contains the Game Freak staff, as it is where they are staying while in Hoenn. Players will find the Graphic Artist, the Programmer, and the Game Designer. The Game Designer will give the player the Poké [[Diploma]] after completing the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]].

===Lilycove Museum===
{{main|Lilycove Museum}}
[[File:Lilycove Museum Curator RSE.png|thumb|200px|left|Meeting the curator]]
Northern Lilycove is home to the [[Lilycove Museum]], where fine art and paintings are on display. The museum is located west of the Lilycove Department Store and the western-most attraction in town. An art dealer is often seen walking around the entrance. The first floor, or the ground floor as it is known, is the main exhibition floor of the museum; there are many statues here, including a few that are replicas of real statues, as well as a few paintings. Many people wander around this floor for inspiration or to just marvel at the fantastic pieces of artwork. It is this hall that features the classical artwork of Pokémon, and the symbolization of Pokémon, while most artwork originated during the ancient times.

The curator will introduce the second floor to the player as the "special exhibit hall", and give out their future plans for the design. The second floor, as the curator explains, was made for modern and vibrant artworks that feature Pokémon springing forth into glorious life, a great change from the first floor which displays classical paintings. There seems to be nothing at first; however, the paintings that the artist does of the player's Pokémon will hang here, and if all five (one for each [[Contest category]]) are done, the curator of the museum will give the player a {{DL|Ornament|Glass Ornament}} for his or her [[secret base]]. If the {{player}} scores high enough while at the same time winning a Master Rank [[Pokémon Contest]], an artist will come and talk to him or her, saying that he has painted the Pokémon that won. After winning the Master Rank, the painter located in the [[Contest Hall]] will then paint the player's Pokémon, and put it on display in the museum. As more paintings are put up, more people come into the museum, eventually prompting the curator to give the aforesaid item.

===Lilycove Department Store===
{{main|Lilycove Department Store}}
Adjacent to the museum and one of the main attractions of the city is the Lilycove Department Store, the largest store in Hoenn. The receptionist on the left welcomes visitors, and the one on the right gives out Pokémon Loto Tickets for the [[Pokémon Lottery Corner]], with the winning number changing daily. Prizes are awarded for winning numbers, which must match any of the player's Pokémon's [[original Trainer]]'s [[Trainer ID number|ID numbers]] from the last digit to the first one. The second floor is where items to fulfill Trainers' basic needs are available, such as [[Poké Ball]]s, [[Potion]]s, [[Mail]], and other [[item]]s. The third floor sells items that raise the [[stats]] of Pokémon, while the fourth floor sells four offensive and four defensive [[TM]]s, and the fifth floor sells [[Decoration|furniture]] for [[secret base]]s. The rooftop has a couple of [[vending machine]]s and hosts a random rooftop sale, which is advertised beforehand.

===Lilycove City Harbor===
The wharf is a large seaside building located on the southernmost extent of the city's headland, southwest of the Pokémon Contest Hall. From here, players may catch the [[S.S. Tidal]] and travel to [[Slateport City]] and either the {{ho|Battle Tower}} if in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} or the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, but, by having a range of tickets, other locations can also be reached. The tickets required are game-dependent, and only one can be obtained in-game: the {{key|III|S.S. Ticket}}, which leads to a special area after the {{DL|Elite Four|Hoenn Elite Four|Elite Four}} has been defeated. The rest must be obtained in a [[Event Pokémon|Nintendo event]], but all give access to an island where a [[legendary Pokémon]] awaits capture.

===Pokémon Trainer Fan Club===
{{main|Pokémon Trainer Fan Club}}
Fans at the Pokémon Trainer Fan Club discuss popular [[Pokémon Trainer]]s and [[Gym Leader]]s. Once the {{player}} has defeated the [[Hoenn League|Pokémon League]], several members of the fan club announce themselves as fans of the player. In addition to this, and before the completion of the Pokémon League, there will be other members who are fans of some non-player characters including [[Gym Leader]]s such as [[Norman]], [[Elite Four]] members such as [[Glacia]], and the {{pkmn|Champion}} {{Steven}}, and also the most recent person to have [[mixing records|mixed records]] with the player's game cartridge.

===Move Deleter's house===
{{main|Move Deleter}}
The Move Deleter is located on the northern side of the city, just east of the Lilycove Department Store. He is the only Move Deleter in [[Hoenn]]. Although not a hugely important place to visit, the Move Deleter is helpful for deleting moves that can't be deleted otherwise. He is a very forgetful man, and lives alone. For no charge, the Move Deleter will make a Pokémon forget a [[move]] it knows. This is the only way for a Pokémon to forget [[HM]] moves such as {{m|Cut}} or {{m|Fly}}. In order to delete an HM move, one must first have another Pokémon with that same move in order for it to be deleted. This is done so that a player will not get stuck in an area where an HM move is required to continue. In addition, a Pokémon's move will not be forgotten if it is the only move it knows.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire===
The population of Lilycove City is 123, making it by far the largest city in [[Hoenn]], and the fourth largest in the [[Pokémon world]], behind [[Unova]]'s [[Castelia City]] and [[Nimbasa City]], and [[Johto]]'s [[Goldenrod City]].

==In the anime==

[[File:Lilycove Contest Hall.png|thumb|200px|left|Lilycove Contest Hall]]
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} reached Lilycove City in ''[[AG090|Pokéblock, Stock, and Berry]]''. Originally, they had intended to make a stop here just because it was en route to the [[Gym]] in [[Mossdeep City]]. They met up with [[Kelly]], a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] who lives in Lilycove City. They followed Kelly, who took them to her mother's [[Pokéblock]] shop.

{{an|May}}, as well as Kelly and [[Jessie]], decided to enter the Lilycove City [[Contest]]. May battled Jessie in the semi-finals, and Kelly in the final, during ''[[AG091|Lessons in Lilycove]]'', but May ultimately won and claimed her third [[Ribbon]]. During the Contest, Ash had {{AP|Swellow}} train under [[Vladimir]] to teach it the move {{m|Aerial Ace}}. In ''[[AG092|Judgment Day!]]'' Ash and his friends left for Mossdeep City.

"Cool beauty" [[Katie]], a challenger of the Ever Grande Conference Victory Tournament, is considered to be the pride of Lilycove City.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, the headquarters for [[Hoenn TV]] is located here, which is the station [[Gabby and Ty]] work for. [[Archie]] secretly controls it.

==Trivia==
* A rearranged, bossa nova version of the background music of Lilycove City can be found in {{game|Platinum}}. It is played on the [[Villa decoration|Audio System]] that can be obtained at the [[Villa]] in the [[Resort Area]].

A '''Villa decoration''' is a type of [[item]] exclusive to {{game|Platinum}}. This is used to describe the items one can decorate the [[Villa]] with. These items are purchased from a catalog and are the most expensive decorations one can purchase with [[Pokémon Dollar]]s. Unlike many other places where furniture can be kept, the furniture in the villa is placed automatically and cannot be moved.
