'''Seel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''パウワウ''' ''Pawou'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Dewgong}} starting at [[level]] 34.

==Biology==
Seel is a {{wp|pinniped}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a thick hide covered in bluish-white fur. It has a pale tan canine maw with a large red tongue and a pair of tusks on its lower jaw. It has circular eyes, prominent black eyebrows (it’s one of the few Pokémon that has eyebrows) and a black nose that is capable of closing when it swims. There is a small horn on its forehead, which it uses in combination with its tusks to bore through ice floes. It has two flippers on its chest, and two more on the end of its tail. When the tail is raised, it resembles a waterspout.

Seel lives on icebergs in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|frigid ocean waters.}} Its warm fur and thick hide allow it to swim in waters as cold as −40° Fahrenheit (−40° Celsius). It thrives in these cold environments, becoming more active as the temperature drops and tires easily in warm waters. Preferring to sleep during the day, it hunts for prey under sheets of ice in the late day and evening hours. While it is a graceful swimmer, it is awkward and struggles to move on dry land.

===Evolution===
Seel evolves into {{p|Dewgong}}.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
In the [[Poké Floats]] stage, Seel appears as a Poké Float, arriving alongside {{p|Venusaur}}. After the second half of Venusaur is revealed, the screen moves continually to the right without stopping, so fighting does not stay on Seel for very long.

==Merchandise==
Seel was featured as:
* a beanbag plush toy in the [[1998 KFC promotional Pokémon toys]].

==Trivia==
* Seel shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Dewgong}} and {{p|Popplio}}. They are all known as the Sea Lion Pokémon.
* Seel is the only non-{{type|Ice}} Pokémon that can have {{a|Ice Body}} as its [[Ability]]. Consequently, Seel is the only Pokémon with Ice Body to benefit from its {{weather|hail}} immunity, since all other Pokémon with the Ability are naturally immune to hail damage due to their typing.
* Seel is the only [[Shadow Pokémon]] with a shadow boost of +4.

===Concept and development===
[[File:Man Who Created Pokémon manga unidentified 1.png|thumb|150px|[[List of unused Pokémon and character designs|Early design]] of Seel]]
An early design for Seel was revealed in the 2018 educational manga ''[[Satoshi Tajiri: The Man Who Created Pokémon]]'', appearing on a board among the Popularity Poll entry sheets. Although it does not resemble Seel's final design, its Japanese name, ''Pauwau'' (パウワウ), is identical.

===Origin===
Seel may be based on an {{wp|earless seal}}, particularly a {{wp|harp seal}} pup due to its white fur and icy habitat. It also shares characteristics with other {{wp|aquatic mammal}}s that live in the {{wp|Arctic Ocean}}. Its long, white body is similar to a {{wp|beluga whale}}, its horn may be inspired by a {{wp|narwhal}}, and its tusks may be inspired by a {{wp|walrus}}. The shape of its tail resembles a stylized {{wp|waterspout}} or {{wp|geyser}}.

====Name origin====
Seel is derived from ''{{wp|Pinniped|seal}}''.

Pawou may be derived from an onomatopoeia of a seal's bark.

==In other languages==

List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A

2026-11-03T03:44:29Z

Meeper12346: /* Vivillon Challenge Spewpa */ clarity

This is a reverse-chronological '''list of event Pokémon distributions''' that were given away through the [[Mystery Gift]] function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}. A subscription to [[Nintendo Switch Online]] is not required to claim [[Mystery Gift]]s on Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 games.

Events can be distributed to the game in 3 ways: Internet events can be received without the need to input any password or serial code. Serial "codes" are one-time use codes. "Passwords" are codes that can be used by any number of people, but are usually limited to one redemption per save file.

Mystery Gift is found in the [[Link Play]] menu, once the rewards feature is unlocked in [[Mable's research]].

While most Pokémon have been given [[Ribbon]]s in their Wonder Card data, the game lacks the code required to set any Ribbons on a Pokémon. As such, these Pokémon will not carry a Ribbon even when transferred to another [[core series]] game, or any [[title]]s even when transferred to {{g|Champions}}.<ref name="anubis ribbon">https://x.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1979661542309462405</ref>

==List of event Pokémon==

[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/shop/pokecen/birthday/ This] {{p|Audino}} was distributed via [[serial code]] to players of [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]] at {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store}} stores in Japan, Singapore, Thailand, and Taiwan from November 1, 2026 to October 31, 2027, if they visited during the month of their birthday, but only if they provided proof of their date of birth. Visitors could also receive {{DL|List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon HOME|2026-27 Pokémon Center Birthday Audino|a similar Audino}} via the Mystery Gift function of [[Pokémon HOME]] on their smartphones.

Additionally, the physical code pamphlets also contained a serial code that could be redeemed {{DL|List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|2026-27 Pokémon Center Birthday Fidough|an Fidough}} in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].

===Vivillon Challenge Spewpa===
[https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/receive-a-spewpa-that-can-evolve-into-a-random-vivillon-pattern-in-pokemon-legends-z-a These] {{p|Spewpa}} were distributed to commemorate the Vivillon Challenge. They could be received in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} via [[Mystery Gift]] from October 29, 2026 to November 18, 2026. One of sixteen Spewpa could be received at random, each evolving into a different {{p|Vivillon}} pattern (excluding the Meadow, Marine, Garden, and Poké Ball Patterns). These Spewpa are otherwise indistinguishable from each other until they evolve, with the exception of those which evolve into Sandstorm Pattern Vivillon as they uniquely have {{m|Protect}} as a [[Plus Move]] due to that form of Spewpa unlocking Protect as a Plus Move at level 10 rather than level 12. As all of these Spewpa share the same Wonder Card ID, only one of them could be received on a single save file.

List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A

2026-11-03T03:42:08Z

Meeper12346: /* Vivillon Challenge Spewpa */

This is a reverse-chronological '''list of event Pokémon distributions''' that were given away through the [[Mystery Gift]] function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}. A subscription to [[Nintendo Switch Online]] is not required to claim [[Mystery Gift]]s on Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 games.

Events can be distributed to the game in 3 ways: Internet events can be received without the need to input any password or serial code. Serial "codes" are one-time use codes. "Passwords" are codes that can be used by any number of people, but are usually limited to one redemption per save file.

Mystery Gift is found in the [[Link Play]] menu, once the rewards feature is unlocked in [[Mable's research]].

While most Pokémon have been given [[Ribbon]]s in their Wonder Card data, the game lacks the code required to set any Ribbons on a Pokémon. As such, these Pokémon will not carry a Ribbon even when transferred to another [[core series]] game, or any [[title]]s even when transferred to {{g|Champions}}.<ref name="anubis ribbon">https://x.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1979661542309462405</ref>

Visitors could also receive {{DL|List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon HOME|2026-27 Pokémon Center Birthday Audino|a similar Audino}} via the Mystery Gift function of [[Pokémon HOME]] on their smartphones.

Additionally, the physical code pamphlets also contained a serial code that could be redeemed {{DL|List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|2026-27 Pokémon Center Birthday Fidough|an Fidough}} in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].

[https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/receive-a-spewpa-that-can-evolve-into-a-random-vivillon-pattern-in-pokemon-legends-z-a These] {{p|Spewpa}} were distributed to commemorate the Vivillon Challenge. They could be received in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} via [[Mystery Gift]] from October 29, 2026 to November 18, 2026. One of sixteen Spewpa could be received at random, each evolving into a different {{p|Vivillon}} pattern (excluding the Meadow, Marine, Garden, and Poké Ball Patterns). These Spewpa are otherwise indistinguishable from each other until they evolve, with the exception of those which evolve into Sandstorm Pattern Vivillon as they have {{m|Protect}} as a [[Plus Move]] due to that form of Spewpa unlocking Protect as a Plus Move at level 10 rather than level 12. As all of these Spewpa share the same Wonder Card ID, only one of them could be received on a single save file.

'''Vivillon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビビヨン''' ''Viviyon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Spewpa}} starting at [[level]] 12. It is the final form of {{p|Scatterbug}}.

There are a total of 20 different [[#Form data|patterns]] Vivillon can have on its wings, one of which is {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive.

In [[Generation]]s {{gen|VI}} and {{gen|VII}}, Vivillon's pattern depends on the real-world geographic location set on the game the Pokémon was generated in.

In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, Spewpa will always evolve into Fancy Pattern Vivillon, except if the Spewpa was transferred from another game via {{g|HOME}}, or when the pattern Spewpa can evolve into has been changed by receiving a [[Gift#Postcards|Postcard]] from {{g|GO}}.

(Refer to [[#Form data|Game data→Form data]] for more details.)

==Biology==
[[File:Pokémon HOME Wallpaper Vivillon.png|thumb|150px|left|The Vivillon wallpaper in Pokémon HOME]]
Vivillon is a butterfly-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with wings that come in a large variety of patterns. It has a round, grayish head with large, black, pixelated eyes and a pair of skinny antennae. The tips of the antennae each have an ovoid scale that is dark gray on the upper half and beige on the lower half. Vivillon's thorax is an ovoid and divided into three segments; each segment is a different shade of gray. Its legs are also ovoid and are dark gray on the lower half, beige on the upper half, and have a black band in the middle. It has two black, circular hands and no visible arms. While Vivillon's wings come in a wide variety of colors and patterns, they always have black edges and pixelated markings. It can spread its scales to poison its opponents during battle or, as seen in the {{aniseries|XY}} episode ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]'', to calm an opponent's fighting spirit. It is highly capable of finding sources of water, such as springs.

Vivillon is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Powder}} by leveling up.
{{left clear}}

===Forms===
Vivillon has 20 separate forms; the pattern of Vivillon's wings is affected by the climate and topography of the environment it lives and is born in.

===Form data===

[[File:Vivillon locations 1.png|thumb|Official maps describing Vivillon locations in Generations VI and VII]]
[[File:Vivillon locations 2.png|thumb|Official maps describing Vivillon locations in Generations VI and VII]]
[[File:Vivillon locations GO.png|thumb|Official map describing Vivillon locations via Postcards in Generation IX]]
Vivillon has 20 distinct forms, each having different patterns on its wings. Its form cannot be changed. {{p|Scatterbug}} and {{p|Spewpa}} have the pattern of Vivillon that they will evolve into already set when the Pokémon is generated; for {{pkmn|Egg}}s, this means the game in which the Egg was created, regardless of parents.

In [[Generation VI]] and [[Generation VII]], its pattern depends on which geographic location the user specified on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] at the time the save file was created. This affects all Vivillon encountered within the game and can only be changed later by deleting the save file and creating a new one. Due to {{DL|Software region|Nintendo 3DS|region locking}}, a Nintendo 3DS system can only pick from a certain subset of geographic locations, depending on which region the system is from. For a comprehensive list, see [[List of Nintendo 3DS country and region settings]].

In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, all wild Vivillon have the Fancy Pattern by default (though other patterns are used by some [[Non-player character|NPCs]]). However, transferring a [[Gift#Postcards|Postcard]] from {{g|GO}} using the [[Mystery Gift]] feature in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet will change the pattern of all wild Vivillon to match the location the Postcard came from. Wild Scatterbug and Spewpa caught after receiving the Postcard will also evolve into Vivillon matching the Postcard's pattern. Scatterbug and Spewpa caught prior to receiving the Postcard will not evolve with the Postcard's pattern. After 24 hours, the wild Pokémon will revert back to Fancy Pattern unless another Postcard has been used. Changing the time and date of the [[Nintendo Switch]] system may end the effect prematurely. An account cannot send more than one Postcard per day, but multiple accounts can be linked each day and can each send a Postcard. A Pokémon Scarlet and Violet save file may not receive the same Postcard more than once. All [[Pokémon breeding|hatched]] Scatterbug will evolve into the Fancy Pattern regardless of Postcard effects. Using the [[Union Circle]] feature, players can see and catch wild Vivillon from other players' games, allowing them to catch various patterns of Vivillon regardless of whether they own a matching Postcard.

In {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, all wild Vivillon in [[Lumiose City]] have the Meadow Pattern. In the [[Mega Dimension]] DLC, all wild Vivillon in [[Hyperspace Lumiose]] have the Garden Pattern. Likewise, wild Scatterbug and Spewpa will evolve into Meadow Pattern (if obtained in Lumiose) or Garden Pattern (if obtained in Hyperspace). However, the Spewpa received after completing [[Mission (Legends: Z-A)#Side missions|Side Mission 021: "Spewpa in the Museum"]] will instead evolve into Marine Pattern. The other 17 patterns are obtainable only via events or by [[transfer]]ring them from [[Pokémon HOME]].

In {{g|Champions}}, all recruited Vivillon at [[Roster Ranch]] have the High Plains Pattern. The other 19 patterns are obtainable only by [[transfer]]ring them from [[Pokémon HOME]].

18 of the patterns correspond to certain regions, while the other two do not. The regions corresponding to each pattern differ somewhat between the Nintendo 3DS and Pokémon GO.

In ''[[PS570|Dancing Vivillon]]'' and ''[[PS571|Burning Fletchinder]]'', fifteen {{tc|Sky Trainer}}s were hypnotized by [[Malva]] and used fifteen Vivillon, each with a different Pattern. The Vivillon Patterns which debuted were the Archipelago, Continental, Elegant, Garden, High Plains, Icy Snow, Jungle, Modern, Monsoon, Polar, River, Sandstorm, Savanna, Sun, and Tundra Patterns. The leader of these Sky Trainers, [[Yvette]], has mentioned that she has 18 of the Vivillon Patterns, including the Poké Ball and Fancy Patterns. After their defeat and no longer being hypnotized the Vivillon safely land the Sky Trainers down in ''[[PS572|Shooting Frogadier]]''. Yvette later uses a Marine Pattern Vivillon with her other Vivillon and in conjunction with Viola's Meadow Pattern Vivillon.

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

==Trivia==

* Vivillon is pronounced "Vi-vi-yon" according to the official {{g|GO}} website.<ref>[https://pokemongolive.com/post/vivillon-launch-postcard-feature/ Vivillon soars into Pokémon GO!]</ref> The pronunciation was also given as "VIH-vee-yon" in a challenge featuring commonly mispronounced Pokémon names at the 2026 Latin America International Championships.<ref>[https://www.instagram.com/p/DRVDd_XkgsW/?img_index=6 Instagram post by Pokémon]</ref>
* Despite the Icy Snow Pattern being the first Vivillon form listed in the Pokédex, the Meadow Pattern is usually treated as Vivillon's primary form, being the form depicted in its key art and seen most often in official artwork, websites, and other material outside the [[core series]] games (such as the {{pkmn|animated series}}, the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]], the {{pkmn|manga}}, and the [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off games]]), as well as being the form of all wild Vivillon in [[Lumiose City]] in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. This may be due to the Meadow Pattern being found in France, which [[Kalos]] (the region Vivillon debuted in) is based on.
* Vivillon and its pre-evolved forms are the only:
** {{type|Bug}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation VI]].
** {{cat|Generation VI Pokémon}} in the {{egg|Bug}} [[Egg Group]].
* Vivillon's [[Effort values|effort value]] [[List of Pokémon by effort value yield|yield]] of 1 HP, 1 Special Attack, and 1 Speed is unique.
* Vivillon's [[List of Pokémon by color|Pokédex color]] has changed between generations:
** In Generation VI, Vivillon's Pokédex color is black.
** In [[Generation VII]], Vivillon's Pokédex color is white.
** In Pokémon HOME, each of Vivillon's forms are listed under distinct color groupings based on the color of their wings.
*** Since the release of Pokémon HOME, Vivillon has forms representing nine of the ten Pokédex colors, more than any other Pokémon species, with {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|black}} being the only exception.
*** Its evolutionary family is the only one to collectively represent all ten colors, as [[Scatterbug]] and [[Spewpa]] are categorized as black.
*** Meadow Pattern and Fancy Pattern Vivillon are the only {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|pink}} {{type|Bug}} Pokémon.
* Vivillon shares several similarities with {{p|Butterfree}} and {{p|Beautifly}}.
** They are all based on {{wp|butterflies}}.
** They are all {{type|Bug}}/{{type|Flying}} Pokémon.
** Their middle-stage forms evolve into them after gaining only three levels.
** They have the same [[File:Body13.png|32px]] [[shape]].
** They learn many of the same moves, albeit at different levels.
* Up until [[Generation IX]], Vivillon could not learn {{m|Iron Defense}} directly, even though its pre-evolved form, Spewpa, was able to learn this move from a Move Tutor.
* As of Generation IX, Vivillon has the most [[Pokédex entry|Pokédex entries]] for a single Pokémon, with 20 per game (one for each form).
** In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet prior to [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet#Version history|Version 1.2.0]], only some of these 20 entries were accessible, as Spewpa could only evolve into Fancy Pattern Vivillon, and only a few other entries could be gained from NPC encounters.
* It has never been possible to obtain Scatterbug and Spewpa that evolve into Vivillon's Poké Ball Pattern, despite the fact the [[Pokédex (HOME)|Pokédex]] in the mobile version of [[Pokémon HOME]] shows the same evolutionary line for Poké Ball Pattern as the other forms. This was also true of the Fancy Pattern prior to the release of [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].
* While the Ocean Pattern Vivillon has not made any proper animated appearance, [[Harper and Sarah|Harper]] was seen flying with its wings as part of an illusion created by a {{p|Mismagius}} in ''[[SM094|A Haunted House for Everyone!]]''.

===Origin===
Considering the many different varieties of Vivillon that differ depending on the player's geographic location, Vivillon may have been based on ''{{wp|Papilio dardanus}}'', which is known for {{wp|Polymorphism (biology)|having over 14 known morphs}}, each of which mimics a different distasteful species of butterfly. Its block-like wing patterns may be based on {{wp|pixel art}}. Modern Pattern Vivillon in particular may be based on modern art, specifically the {{wp|De Stijl}} movement.

====Name origin====
Vivillon and Viviyon may be a combination of ''vivid'' and ''papillon'' (French for "butterfly"). It may also involve 美 ''bi'' (Japanese for beauty) or ''brillant'' (French for "brilliant").

'''Spewpa''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コフーライ''' ''Kofuurai'') is a {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Scatterbug}} starting at [[level]] 9 and evolves into {{p|Vivillon}} starting at level 12. Scatterbug and Spewpa each have [[#Form data|20 visually indistinct forms]] that determine the {{fd|Vivillon|form}} of Vivillon they evolve into.

==Biology==
Spewpa is small, cocoon-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} mostly hidden by sharp white fur with square particles of red, black, and pale yellow in and around the fur. Poking out of the top of its fur is its large, round head. The head is light gray in the back with a darker gray face. There is a beige dot over each eye and the face is bisected by a thin, black line that ends in a beige triangle at the top of the head. Its eyes are also beige with square, black pupils.

In order to defend itself from predators such as {{p|Rufflet}}, Spewpa will bristle its fur or spray a poisonous black powder. Spewpa is a nomadic Pokémon, travelling across fields and mountains while building up energy for it to evolve. However, it generally inhabits the shadows of thickets.

===Evolution===
Spewpa evolves from {{p|Scatterbug}} and evolves into {{p|Vivillon}}.

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

===Form data===
{{p|Scatterbug}} and Spewpa each have 20 forms internally, one for each {{p|Vivillon}} pattern. This determines the {{fd|Vivillon|form}} of Vivillon they will eventually evolve into, and is determined when they are first generated; for {{pkmn|Egg}}s, this means the game in which the Egg was created, regardless of parents.

In [[Generation VI]] and [[Generation VII]], its internal form depends on which geographic location the user specified on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] at the time the save file was created. Due to {{DL|Software region|Nintendo 3DS|region locking}}, a Nintendo 3DS system can only pick from a certain subset of geographic locations, depending on which region the system is from. For a comprehensive list, see [[List of Nintendo 3DS country and region settings]].

In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, all [[Pokémon breeding|hatched]] Scatterbug will evolve into Fancy Pattern Vivillon, regardless of [[Gift#Postcards|Postcard]] effects. Scatterbug and Spewpa caught with a Postcard active will evolve into the pattern of Vivillon corresponding to the Postcard. If a Scatterbug or Spewpa came from another game like {{g|GO}}, it will retain the pattern it was assigned in its original game.

===Evolution data===

==In animation==
[[File:Spewpa anime.png|thumb|250px|Spewpa in {{aniseries|XY}}]]
===Main series===
====Major appearances====
Multiple Spewpa appeared in ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]'', all of which had earlier evolved from Scatterbug, including one of them that {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} helped out. One of the Spewpa later [[Evolution|evolved]] into a Vivillon while battling with [[Dolan]]'s {{p|Diggersby}}, and the rest evolved afterwards.

Six Spewpa appeared in ''[[XY121|Seeing the Forest for the Trees!]]'' in the [[Kalos Route 20|Winding Woods]]. Ash and {{AP|Greninja}} had to save them from freezing in a blizzard, and later ended up saving one of the Spewpa from falling off a cliff. This helped them to master the Ash-Greninja form. Afterwards, they all evolved into Meadow Pattern Vivillon. Two of them reappeared in a flashback in ''[[XY139|Facing the Needs of the Many!]]'', ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]'', and ''[[JN108|Catching the Aura of Fate!]]'' as Spewpa.

====Minor appearances====
Spewpa debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''.

Three Spewpa appeared in ''[[XY084|Adventures in Running Errands!]]'', all under the ownership of a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.

A Trainer's Spewpa appeared in ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]''.

A Trainer's Spewpa appeared in [[HZ153]].

====Pokédex entries====

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|Kalos}}

===POKÉTOON===
A Spewpa appeared in ''[[PT12|My Gogoat Journey]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Lumiose Press editor-in-chief Spewpa Adventures.png|250px|thumb|right|Spewpa in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
[[File:Spewpa ANN.png|thumb|left|200px|Spewpa in [[After the Rain, Goomy.]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Two Spewpa were used by the [[Lumiose Press editor-in-chief]] in ''[[PS562|Pangoro Poses a Problem]]'', to stop {{adv|X}} from protecting [[Alexa]]. With their {{m|Rage Powder}}, the Spewpa prevented X's [[Marisso]] and [[Salamè]] from listening to X's commands. Eventually, both were defeated, but X's Pokémon were left exhausted afterward.

===After the Rain, Goomy.===
A Spewpa appeared in [[After the Rain, Goomy.]]

==In the TCG==

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
[[File:Spewpa SSB4.png|thumb|240px|Spewpa in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.]]]]
Spewpa appears as a {{i|Poké Ball}} summon. It uses {{m|Stun Spore}} to temporarily stun any nearby opponents that attack it, but doesn't move otherwise.

[[File:Spewpa_3DS_trophy_SSB4.png|thumb|150px|Spewpa trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS'']]
Spewpa also appears as a trophy in both versions of the game.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''Spewpa, the Scatterdust Pokémon. This Bug-type Pokémon can harden its body to protect against attacks. If attacked in Smash Bros., it'll bristle up and paralyze its opponent with Stun Spore. However, it won't do anything if you don't attack it. Don't mess with it—it won't mess with you. ''

'''PAL''': ''Spewpa, the Scatterdust Pokémon. This Bug-type Pokémon can harden its body to protect against attacks. In this game, it might bristle up and paralyse you with Stun Spore. "How ever can I avoid such a terrible fate?", you ask? Just leave it alone. Don't mess with Spewpa, and Spewpa won't mess with you. ''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Spewpa returns as a Pokémon summoned from the Poké Ball, retaining the same behavior from the previous game.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Spewpa and its evolutionary relatives are the only:
** {{type|Bug}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation VI]].
** {{cat|Generation VI Pokémon}} in the {{egg|Bug}} [[Egg Group]].
* Spewpa is the only Pokémon that [[List of Pokémon that evolve at or above a certain level|evolves starting at]] level 12.
* Spewpa is [[List of Pokémon with unique base stat totals|the only Pokémon]] with a base stat total of 213.
* Spewpa shares several similarities with {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, {{p|Silcoon}}, and {{p|Cascoon}}.
** They are all based on the {{wp|pupa}} stage of {{wp|Holometabolism|complete metamorphosis}}.
** They share the [[Ability]] {{a|Shed Skin}}.
** They share the same Medium Fast [[experience]] growth rate.
** They share the same [[EV yield]] of 2 Defense.
** They are tied for the shortest [[List of Pokémon that evolve at or above a certain level|level-based interval]] between evolutionary stages, evolving again after gaining only three levels.
** They all learn {{m|Harden}} at level 1.
* Spewpa can learn {{m|Iron Defense}} from a [[Move Tutor]], but its Evolution, {{p|Vivillon}}, cannot.
* Spewpa and its pre-evolved form, {{p|Scatterbug}}, are the only {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|black}} Bug-type Pokémon.

===Origin===
Spewpa is likely based on the larval forms of certain members of the {{wp|Tineidae}} family, such as the {{wp|carpet moth}} and {{wp|Tinea pellionella|case-bearing clothes moth}}, which construct snug cases of fibres and hairs that leave their heads exposed. The square powder on Spewpa's body might be based on {{wp|confetti}} or screen {{wp|pixel}}s.

Considering its evolutionary relatives, Spewpa may also represent a generic {{wp|pupa}} of a moth or butterfly, particularly {{wp|silkworm}} cocoons. The way it uses its hairs to protect itself from predation may be a reference to the {{wp|urticating hairs}} of some caterpillars that are incorporated into their cocoons for protection.

====Name origin====
Spewpa may be a combination of ''spew'' and ''{{wp|pupa}}''.

Kofuurai may be a combination of 小 ''ko'' (small) or 粉 ''ko'' (powder) and 風来人 ''furaijin'' (wanderer).

List of event Pokémon distributions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A

2026-10-29T06:27:42Z

Meeper12346: /* Vivillon Challenge Spewpa */ (new section)

This is a reverse-chronological '''list of event Pokémon distributions''' that were given away via the various Mystery Gift function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}. A subscription to [[Nintendo Switch Online]] is not required to claim [[Mystery Gift]]s on Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 games.

Events can be distributed to the game in 3 ways: Internet events can be received without the need to input any password or serial code. Serial "codes" are one-time use codes. "Passwords" are codes that can be used by any number of people, but are usually limited to one redemption per save file.

Mystery Gift is found in the [[Link Play]] menu, once the rewards feature is unlocked in [[Mable's research]].

While most Pokémon have been given [[ribbon]]s in their wonder card data, the game is missing the code required to set any ribbons on a Pokémon. As such, these Pokémon will not carry a ribbon even when transferred to another [[core series]] game, or any [[title]]s even when transferred to {{g|Champions}}.<ref name="anubis ribbon">https://x.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1979661542309462405</ref>

[https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/receive-a-spewpa-that-can-evolve-into-a-random-vivillon-pattern-in-pokemon-legends-z-a These] {{p|Spewpa}} were distributed to commemorate the Vivillon Challenge. They could be received in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} via [[Mystery Gift]] from October 29, 2026 to November 18, 2026. One of sixteen Spewpa could be received, each evolving into a different {{p|Vivillon}} pattern (excluding the Meadow, Marine, Garden and Poké Ball patterns). As all of these Spewpa share the same Wonder Card ID, only one of them could be received on a single save file.

Missingno. (Red/Blue) and Missingno. (Yellow) are very different from each other. They should be separate pages. Compare [http://www.trsrockin.com/dex_mn.html] and [http://www.trsrockin.com/dex_yellow.html]. Also compare [http://glitchcity.info/glitchdex/RB:115] and [http://glitchcity.info/glitchdex/Y:115]. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|SnorlaxMonster]] 11:17, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Is there a tag for this? Because I can't find one. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|SnorlaxMonster]] 05:58, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
:No. It's still the same glitch, it just manifests different effects in different games. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 06:16, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
::It's really as different as {{p|'M}} and {{p|3TrainerPoké}}, other than the fact that they have the same name. The stats are completely different, Yellow's types are Normal/Glitch whereas RB's types are Bird/Normal, Yellow's Starting moves are Water Gun, Bind, Pay Day whereas RB's starting moves are Water Gun, Water Gun, Sky Attack.--[[User:SnorlaxMonster|SnorlaxMonster]] 07:12, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

::::But that would make {{p|3TrainerPoké}} an alternate form of {{p|'M}}. The only difference between the relationship of those two, and the relationship of the two Missingno.s is that the Missingno.s have the same name. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|Snorlax]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|Monster]] 06:07, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
:::::And that difference makes all the difference. They're the same species, just as Sandy Cloak and Trash Cloak Wormadam are the same species, or Normal and Defense Deoxys. [[User:Missingno.

==More rumours==
Not mentioned on the rumours page is a theory about missingo's origin and why cubone and marowak seem so similar to kangaskhan. The theory is easy to believe even if it comes from a 4chan post. see [http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs043.snc3/13067_211106843303_637453303_3035423_5482389_n.jpg] for a screencap of the argument. --[[User:Iain7|Iain7]] 23:45, 17 December 2009 (GMT)
:There are quite a few problems with that theory, the first being that its speculation and does not belong on the article. Secondly, I don't think it is that complex or time consuming to delete an evolution. Also, Missingno. is completely unrelated to both Kangaskhan and Cubone. Also, if you look at [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation I|the Hex list]], you'll see that Missingno. has multiple index numbers.--[[User:SnorlaxMonster|Snorlax]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|Monster]].

== Can Yellow Missingno. replicate 128 of an item? ==

I read somewhere that Missingno. in Yellow can replicate 128 of an item, but elsewhere that it cannot. Which is true? [[User:Blueapple128|Blueapple128]] 17:46, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
:First another question, can Missingno. (in either game) replicate items when encountered using the [[Mew glitch]]? If no, then it cannot. If yes it might be able to. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 06:40, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
::Never mind, found the answer here: http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,5904.0.html. When encountered through the Mew glitch in any of RBY, it will still duplicate items. However, it will only do so in Yellow if the game doesn't freeze. Apparently it will ''always'' freeze in an emulator since it can't detect the glitchy game code properly, unlike a cartridge which has a small chance of not freezing. [[User:Blueapple128|Blueapple128]] 03:38, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
::You can do it on an emulator if you do the ditto glitch with a pokemon with special stat of 182 to 184 to get one of the fossil Missingno.[[User:ChemDog|ChemDog]] ([[User talk:ChemDog|talk]]) 22:29, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

== Name Capitalization ==

Just wondering, why is MissingNo. spelled with a lowercase N in the article? It doesn't make sense. The "No." is obviously meant to be a separate word from "Missing", so it should be capitalized, just like what has been done to many names of moves and items in Generation IV. Now, before you say ''"But it's never been officially spelled like that!"'', it's ''also'' never been officially spelled with ''any'' lowercase letters, just in all capitals, so the current capitalization that you're using can't be considered officially correct, either. "MissingNo." with a capital N is the most logical capitalization, so why not use it? Also, using the current article's capitalization is just encouraging the common mispronunciation ''"Missing-No"'' instead of ''"Missing-Number"'', how it ''should'' be pronounced.
—[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 07:36, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:Based on what you just said, your version of the capitalization is no more correct or incorrect than this one. This one just looks better. And based on the fact that nobody's changed it back in the months since I moved the page to this name indicates that the vast majority of Bulbapedia would agree with me. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 12:14, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::Perhaps even MISSINGNO. would be a better location. But for now, this location is fine. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:::But although the game refers to the 30 odd variations of these glitches as just "MISSINGNO." that doesn't mean we need to change the article names of Pikachu, Bulbasaur and Mewtwo to PIKACHU, BULBASAUR and MEWTWO either. We are a Pokémon encyclopaedia, not a Pokémon mechanics encyclopaedia. I can confirm though that Nintendo does refer to these glitches as "MissingNO" here [http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp] --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 12:31, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
::::We don't capitalize the Pokémon names because that's not the right way to spell them. They're in all capitals in the main games, but that's just because that's always how been. I'm sure they would have changed the capitalization format for Pokémon names in Generation IV if it weren't the Generation III compatibility (because that would look extremely weird if all the Pokémon you caught in your DS game had proper capitalization, while any Pokémon you migrated from your GBA games would be in all caps). We've seen Pokémon names spelled with correct capitalization in official places outside of the main games themselves, so it's safe to assume that the correct spelling of Pokémon names isn't in all caps. And you could take Nintendo's quotes as evidence, but they contradict themselves in the spelling. First they call it "MissngNO" with a capital "NO" and no period, and then they call "MissingNo", with the O being lowercase and still no period. Obviously, there's supposed to be a period in its name, so Nintendo's spellings of the name in that particular instance can't be correct. But even if it's not 100% correct, it does provide evidence that "Missing" is separate from "No." and should be capitalized to show that. Think of how some items and moves are spelled in Generation IV that were previously in all caps. SquirtBottle, SolarBeam, DynamicPunch, etc. It's just the most logical way to spell the name. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 15:59, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

(resetting indent) But the "Poké" in those words isn't a ''real'' word. Typically, words that being with "Poké" just flow together as a brand new word, without any capitalization other than the "P", like ''Pokémon'', ''Pokédex'', etc. Either that, or the "Poké" is a separate word and is followed by a space, in the case of ''Poké Ball'', etc. But anyway, yes, I know that we can't change the spelling based on opinion, which is why I gave another reason; spelling it "MissingNo." implies that it's "Missing Number", ''not'' "Missingno", as many people think it is. That, and the fact that Nintendo has spelled it "MissingNO" and "MissingNo", in both cases capitalizing the "No." part. —[[User:Tyeforce|Tyeforce]] 14:24, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
:The Nintendo part does however seem unreliable due to the inconsistencies as well as lack of period after MissingNO and MissingNo. This discussion will not be enough to move a page on such a well known topic, especially a featured article, but since an official source decided to separate the two with camelcase, it should be moved. I suggest you take it to the editorial board to see what they think about it.

*Here are my thoughts on the matter ''(and I apologize for the length; go to the bottom for the TL;DR version)'':
:* First of all, Missingno.'s only TRUE official name is "MISSINGNO.", and thus both fan-created lower-cased names--"Missingno." and "MissingNo."--are technically incorrect. As such, if the article MUST be moved, it should be moved to "MISSINGNO." versus "MissingNo."
:* Furthermore, "Missingno." has since become this glitch's proper name to mostly everyone, versus being completely understood to be the abbreviation of "Missing Number" ''(just as "Feraligatr" is understood to be "Ferali-gator" and not "Ferali-gatt-are")''. That is to say, I don't think I've EVER heard anyone refer to it as "Missing Number" but rather as "missing-know". But while I'll admit I haven't heard EVERYONE, even "MissingNo."'s supporters aren't referring to it as "Missing Number" but "MissingNo.", which I feel supports the idea that "Missing-know" has become its proper name.
:* Also consider that spelling it "Missingno." has precedent with other Pokémon names, such as Nidoking, Feraligatr and Farfetch'd, which are referred to by those names, versus by what is "obviously" their "real" names: "Nido King"/"NidoKing", "Feraligator" and "Farfetched"/"Far Fetch'd"/"FarFetched"/etc. The thing is, despite their names being based on two words and/or abbreviated for whatever reason (complete with punctuations), we accept those "incorrect" names as the PROPER NAMES for those Pokémon and spell them with only the first letter capitalized.
:: As such, MISSINGNO.'s proper name is NOT the phrase "Missing Number", it is simply "Missingno.". And just like the apostrophe in Farfecth'd's name which is now part of its identity and not to denote that its "real" name is "Farfetched", the period in Missingno.'s name is likewise simply part of its identity, versus used to denote an abbreviation. ''(Er, well, Missingno.'s name was definitely based on "missing number", just as Farfetch'd's name was based on "far fetched"... I'm not saying that it is. However, it doesn't MEAN "missing number", just as Farfetch'd's name doesn't mean " far fetched", and no one refers to Farfetch'd as "Far Fetched".)''
:* '''TL;DR:''' Missingno.'s ''proper name'' IS 'Missingno." and not "Missing Number" (especially considering few people actually refer to it as "Missing Numver"). Therefore, the article should remain at "Missingno.". But if it MUST be moved, then it should be moved to "MISSINGNO.", which is its true and official name.
:* I hope this adds to the debate, and I expect the Bulbapedia staff to make the best decision..... which is to leave the article as it. :3 -- [[User:Nick15|Nick15]] 19:50, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Also, Nintendo has officially referred to it as MissingNO.

But... Nintendo wrote MissingNo and MissingNO without the dot, what gave them the chance to write it with the space between Missing and No, but they choose not to do this, that is clearly a way to show us there's no such space separation. They predicted we would discuss MissingNo. name right now and left a hidden message to us: "there's no separation, look here, even with the space left of the dot we haven't wrote it separated!" ;) AND MORE: one time they wrote it MissingNo and just after it they wrote it MissingNO, which was a mental pulse of the writer, a way to mask us that Nintendo doesn't cares about MissingNo.: by leaving the last character of what they wrote one time uppercase and in the other time lowercase they meant "we don't really care about MissingNo. we just write it like we don't care if the o turned out uppercase or lowercase".

:Its the internal error trap (as Rhydon has an index number of 01) for when the game brings up a new Pokédex entry for an invalid Pokémon. Try capturing it again, so that the "New Pokédex entry" interface doesn't pop up again. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 14:24, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

== Some possibly helpful questions ==

1. It seems the list of characters in a player's name that can trigger Missingno.'s various forms is not exhaustive. Does anyone know what Pokemon would appear when one of those characters is used in the appropriate spot? It might be useful to have this information in the article, even if it's just a simple "having other characters in these positions will not produce Missingno. but, instead, some other Pokemon to appear".

2. The next one is more of a general programming question regarding this comment: ''Due to the limited space in the Game Boy memory, the programmers decided to use the space where data for wild Pokémon found in the grass is stored (which is completely blank in Viridian City; only Surfing and Fishing data is used) to save the player's name temporarily.'' Are there any other circumstances where a player's name has to be stored into this space? [[User:Starscream|Starscream]] 17:06, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:1. This page should actually list less of that. That is the [[old man glitch]]. Missingno. is one possible result, so most of this info should be moved there and this to link there as a main article. In addition, Missingno. can be found via the [[Mew glitch]], but this section only explains how it works via the old man glitch. I will fix this after replying.
:2. No, not in Generation I. If there was, that would have been exploited a long time ago. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 06:52, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
::2. Regarding surfing on land strips, there is another process which could be exploited legitimately, although it is less practical than entering an Old Man battle. It is possible to make a trade within Cinnibar's Lab (as name data is stored within the RAM and recalled after trading) and then surf along any 'coast'. There are several other processes, but realistically unless messing with the RAM itself (e.g. save corruption, select bugs) they would require an external device, e.g. Professor Oak's battle mode used for catching the starter Pikachu and then surfing along a coast without encountering another Pokémon. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 16:31, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

== Why don't we move it? ==

I mean, MissingNo.'s in-game name really means "Missing Number," it's as if the game's trying to tell you that the Pokémon you're encountering is missing, and it's index number is 0.
All a Pokémon name is is a permanently nicknamed number, for example, [[Mew]]'s index equivalent is 21. The game thinks "21 used (index number of a move)! It's super effective!" but the game translates it to "[[Mew]] used [[Psychic]]! It's super effective!" To recap what I have just said, as you are probably thinking "What is this kid getting at?" what I mean is, MissingNo.'s name is an abbreviated message, not an actual name.

:Missingno. is not index number 000, that is [['M (00)|'M]]. Missingno. has a Pokédex number of 000 ('M does too), but has a large number of different index numbers (see the infobox). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:42, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
@SnorlaxMonster: Enlighten me. Why does MissingNo. revert to Rhydon when certain forms are caught? If Rhydon's index number is 001, MissingNo. has to revert to the next valid index number, 001. That means MissingNo. has to be 000. It's Pokédex number is also 000. 'M could possibly share index 000 with MissingNo. [[User:Alex128|Alex128]] 00:27, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
::Its only if a glitch Pokémon displays its Pokédex entry upon capture and has an invalid Pokédex number that it reverts to {{p|Rhydon}} (see new [[Rhydon glitch]] article). This is not specific to Yellow Missingno. as many glitch Pokémon have high Pokédex numbers and revert back to Rhydon after their Pokédex entry is registered. Its not possible to have more than one Pokémon with the same index number in the same game. You can have multiple glitch Pokémon with the same Pokédex number or 'family', but not index number. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 02:44, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

 [[User:Pgj1997|Pgj1997]]
:We know about them but refer to them here as [[glitch Pokémon]] rather than Missingno. here please. The name "Missingno." is the error handler used for placeholder/formatted species and only 39 instances used this in the GB/C games (with the other 107 being generic invalid Pokémon). [[? (glitch Pokémon)|?]] is the closest approximation to its function (25 empty spaces), though we still call it ? because that's what the game calls it. [[??????????]] and others are essentially invalid Pokémon (like the past 107 generic glitch Pokémon) but improved error handling techniques dummy out their names.

== Trivia And More! ==

For the trivia, couldn't it be stated that Missing No. is the first pokemon to have alternate forms?

Also, should Missing No.'s alternate forms be added to the Form Change page? [[User:Super Glitch-Missing No.|Super Glitch-Missing No.]] 22:42, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Super Glitch-Missing No.
:Possibly, but as long as it is only mentioned on this page

So I can add the Forme Differences onto Missing No.'s trivia, but not on the page? And technically, Missing No. is a real pokemon, but not obtained by normal means with some side effects. It is still a pokemon.--[[User:Super Glitch-Missing No.]]
:No, Missingno. is NOT a Pokémon. It's a glitch encountered when a wild Pokémon is encountered in an area where wild Pokémon are not meant to appear. Therefore Missingno. appears because the numerical data (no.) for which Pokémon should appear are missing. Thus the "name" isn't even a name so much as an error message.

== MISSINGNO. Research ==

I recently caught a MISSINGNO. on Blue. It was level 168 and had the sprite of the Aerodactyl fossil. When I battled it, I Mimiced it and it had Supersonic, Auroa Beam, Clamp, and Spike Cannon. When I caught it, it had just Wing Attack and Supersonic. (I battled it with my Aerodactyl, which had Fly as well. As stated, it "grew" to level 100 after just one battle. I saved it here, and when I start my game, after a couple battles, it "grows" to level 70, with its screen stating that it took 12,000 or so exp to level up. I got it down to 9,000 exp, and flew to Viridian Forest. It then said that it needed 98,000 or so exp. When its screen was checked, it was an "Electric" type, yet Water and Ice type moves were super effective. Today it was Rock and Ground, so Normal type moves were not very effective, but Rock-type moves were. Soon it changed to Rock Flying. In Pokémon Tower, after I checked the screen of one of my non-glitch Pokémon, its back sprite was changed to Aerodactyl. Also, I've noticed that while opposing Pokémon's sprites were reversed, they only got spliced when they "changed," like when they flash after Wing Attack or when they use Withdraw.

I was just wondering if we should add any of this information. [[User:Jdrawer|Jdrawer]] 16:47, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
:I believe that defined-sprite Missingno. doesn't actually copy the moves of an individual Pokémon, but takes what moves it would have at that level if it were of that species. So a level 168 Cloyster would have that first mentioned set of attacks, meaning it was the last Pokémon loaded (just hearing its cry can do this, or so I've heard). Why it had those moves after Aerodactyl, I have no idea; further testing should probably be conducted. "Growing" to level 100 after gaining experience when above level 100 is mentioned [[List of glitches in Generation I#Leveling past 100|here]]. The changing to level 70 and changing experience to next level is likely due to copying another Pokémon's experience group, then copying a different experience group, throwing it all around the place like that.
:Now, what is interesting in your research is that it shows defined-sprite Missingno. behaving remarkably similar to [[unstable hybrid Pokémon]]. This would also explain why its battle types don't match its display types. Now, what I'm interested in is what would happen if it was attempted to be stabilized via Daycare, and what would happen if it was turned into an unstable hybrid.

== How the fossil and ghost Missingnos. work ==

The game doesn't just leave pieces of the source base stats structure in the game. There's a special case for those four IDs that makes it so almost all of the data, besides the front sprite and a couple other things, is not overwritten. [[User:FSX|FSX]] 22:26, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

==MissingNo. spelling==
Like someone said long ago, I think the spelling should be changed. It's obviously two words... the only reason it's written like that in the game is the 10 character limit. If there was no character limit and there was no convention of capitalizing every letter, I'm pretty sure it would appear in the game as "Missing Number" or "Missing number".

According to the official source ( http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp ), the spelling is "MissingNO" (with the spelling of "MissingNo" one time)... a period is never included and the capitalization changes when it gets to the "number" (I would think that "MissingNo" is a typo, not an inconsistancy, as it only occurs with a lowercase 'o' once).

Wouldn't it make more sense to go with the official spelling of "MissingNO" than "Missingno."? Not that I personally like this spelling any better... I actually prefer "MissingNo." (lowercase 'o' with a period). But when an official spelling is available, it would make more sense to use it. [[User:Dannyjenn|Dannyjenn]] 16:13, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Edit - actually, much of what I said can be ignored. When I posted that, I wasn't thinking of the obvious fact that even though that's an official source, perhaps what's on that page isn't an "official" spelling, but rather, the writer's preference (i.e. if I worked for Nintendo and was put into the position to make the reply, I would have spelled it "MissingNo."... which wouldn't necessarily be "official").

I still don't like "Missingno.", but whatever. [[User:Dannyjenn|Dannyjenn]] 16:38, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

==Japanese variation==
I don't know if any of this is worth mentioning, but the Japanese games have different data regarding MissingNo. First off, I hear the Old Man glitch doesn't work in Red and Green (I haven't gotten far enough in the game to try it yet). But he can be obtained through the Mew glitch... although I hear that (with the exception of his Ghost, Kabutops fossil, and Aerodactyl fossil formes) he freezes the game (again, haven't tried this for myself yet). Anyway, his height is 1m and his weight is 10.0kg, rather than the literal values obtained by converting its height and weight (from the international versions) to metric, so that part is wrong and should be changed. He has Pokédex text in Blue (I believe he doesn't have any in Red and Green)... it's "コメントさくせいちゅう" (I think it means "comment to be written"). The types are different. Also, the Ghost forme's name is "ゴースト ''Ghost''' rather than "けつばん ''Ketsuban''" (does anyone know if this happens in the localizations as well?). His regular formes have a different sprite as well. I have no idea if his moveset is the same. [[User:Dannyjenn|Dannyjenn]] 18:41, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
:The thing about glitch Pokémon is that they are considered separate if they appear in a different game version (between RB and Y) or language. Japanese けつばん really should be considered a separate glitch Pokémon to Missingno. However, I take two issues with creating pages for Japanese glitch Pokémon: 1) We don't even have decent pages for the English ones, we don't need more to create and clean and 2) Japanese glitch Pokémon will add 4 more sets to the currently existing 2. I think that the metric weight/height should be removed altogether, and a "In the Japanese versions" section should be created for けつばん. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:19, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

I always find this annoying: "''The five forms of Missingno (clockwise from left: Normal, Ghost, Aerodactyl, Yellow, Kabutops)''"

It's not confusing (as it's obvious as to which forme is which), but why write it in "clockwise" order? Why not just from left to right?

Also, MissingNo. has a different look in the Japanese games. Maybe his Japanese sprite should be added to those 5? [[User:Dannyjenn|Dannyjenn]] 01:01, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

== TMTRAINER/super glitch method ==

Hey, recently on GCL someone found a video of a way to get Japanese Blue Missningno., and the method also works on English Blue (and probably Yellow too, but I don't own one to test it). Once full testing has ben done would it be worthwhile adding? It involves using Ditto's super glitch move and then stablilsing the glitch after catching the opposing pokémon (this is very vague). It also has a way to prevent the game from freezing after super glitch, which is extremely intereting. (It might be worth adding to the [[TMTRAINER effect]] page too).

== Ketsuban ==

If this is in the arcticle please point out where. How does Ketsuban come from the Japanese term for Missing Number? Is it named differently in European or other foreign language releases? --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 00:01, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
:[http://jisho.org/words?jap=ketsuban&eng=&dict=edict けつばん] ''ketsuban'' literally translates to missing number. In foreign languages it is also called Missingno. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 08:41, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

== Pokédex Entry? ==

"If Missingno.'s Pokédex data is viewed, it will consist of a very long string of glitchy sounds, much like ゥ .4 or h POKé's entries." Does it say 'sounds' on purpose? It seems like 'characters' would make more sense. Mew! 02:55, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

== MissingNo. is you? ==

This is just something I came across and is almost defiantly untrue... but is it just me or does it look like MissingNo. takes your sprite (the sprite of the trainer) and scrambles it? this would explain why the shape of MissingNo. is the way it is (with the big white rectangle in the same place as the trainers) and possibly explain where the game is drawing data from for the sprite. And if it isn't copying the sprite and scrambling it, could it at least be using the same color palette (as suggested in yellow) as you? PLEASE let me know of ANY thoughts you have on this. It's been in my head for ages.

==A mistake in the article, or am I misunderstanding all this?==

I own a Missingno. on an actual Yellow cartridge. It's the B7 variant, but it has the Aerodactyl Fossil sprite like it would have in Red/Blue, only that it's using Pikachu's palette. I've preformed the Mew Glitch multiple times, and I can confirm that the Special stat of 183 for the Ditto method of the [[Mew glitch]] only gives out the Aerodactyl Fossil sprite. Where do the glitch-sprite variants come from, such as this:
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:YGlitchB7.png
Also, my Missingno. does not go down to Level 1 when it gets experience like the article says it does; it levels up like any normal Pokémon would. Am I just misreading the article, or is there a flaw in the article? [[User:SkyEmerald|SkyEmerald]] ([[User talk:SkyEmerald|talk]]) 23:46, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

:Wrong the spirits depend on how you name your trainer

What people don't understand is the forms of Missingno depend on how you're trainers name is spelled depending on the letters used to spell you're trainer. Depending on what letters you use is how the spirit turns out. Example using letters like A E I O U every few letters like Erica is how the form turns out ~~Missingno Master~~ (September 21, 2013)

===Yellow special Missingno. don't have 'unique forms'===
::The article ''is'' wrong. If you encounter a B6, B7 or B8 Missingno. using the species modifier code (i.e. 01xxD7CF in Yellow), then it will use an incorrect sprite but this is a side effect of the code that happens with other Pokémon. When you encounter it using the Ditto glitch, which triggers as if it was a field Pokémon battle (like using 01xx58D0) it will use the correct sprite (i.e. of the Kabutops Fossil, Aerodactyl Fossil or Ghost). As the Ditto glitch is the only non-cheating way of getting a special Missingno. on the opponent's side besides link battle, where it appears as one of the correct sprites too, I don't think the article should mention these 'Yellow-only forms', and the image should be reverted. There are similar cheating only forms for the Red/Blue fossil Missingno. too. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] ([[User talk:Chickasaurus|talk]]) 17:53, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

== HUGE error in article. ==

In the article, it says that Missingno.'s yellow B6, B7, and B8 variants occupy special 182, 183, and 184 of the Mew glitch. This is not true. They are occupied by Missingno.'s Kabutops, Aerodactyl, and Ghost forms, respectively.{{unsigned|Irtehmrepic}}

== Official Nintendo Statement ==

The article states "Nintendo claimed that Missingno. appears after performing a trick involving the Safari Zone, while the real method has nothing to do with that." this is only partially incorrect as I know the Nintendo website was referring to the fact that you can exploit the coast on Cinnabar Island to fight against Safari Zone Pokémon in battle (as seen in [[Old man glitch#Other coast related exploits]]. (Yeah, on the old Pokémon website, they actually encouraged you to exploit this glitch haha.) anyway, I think the statement that it has "nothing do to with that" is somewhat misleading as while you won't see Safari Pokémon and Missingno simultaneously, it's similar method relating to this glitch. Anyone else believe that statement should be removed? [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 00:12, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
:If the sentence is kept, I would change it to something like, "Nintendo claimed that Missingno. appears after performing a trick involving the Safari Zone, however the actual method is the Old Man Glitch of which the Safari Zone trick is a subset of it," or something similar.

== Image and a few other things... ==

Hello. First off, I have uploaded a new version of [[a:file:missingno_glitch_walking_players.png|Missingno_Glitch_Walking_Players.png]]. While it appears to not have fully updated yet, the "bad image" text should be removed. 
In addition, I have a few other edits that I would like done (but cannot make myself, due to not being autoconfirmed). For one, the text <code>It is unknown why this happens. </code> in the first section should be removed or changed. The glitch sounds occur for the same reason as regular glitch dialog boxes do: The game reads the text as something that should do sound. (Used with bill for instance). 
Then, there is the Pokédex entries. One thing that should be fixed with them is the <code>{{{yellowdex}}} </code> text in them. In fact, that entire table for Pokédex entries is only used to display the one for Japanese blue. If that is changed, the images should probably be moved as well. 
Then there is this text: <code>The correct way to fix these issues is to view the Pokédex data or stat page of a hybrid glitch Pokémon or official Pokémon. </code> in Section official Nintendo statement. There isn't a big issue with that, but if someone were trying to use that as a guide they would first think of getting a hybrid Pokémon. The text should be reversed. --[[User:Pokechu22|Pokechu22]] ([[User talk:Pokechu22|talk]]) 02:42, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

I believe MissingNO. Is HO-OH. HO-OH was first debuted in the first episode of the Pokèmon anime, and so I can only guess that they were going to implement HO-OH into the original Red/Blue versions. However, they must have removed it, but not entirely, thus giving it data for a pokemon. However, the glitch must have corrupted other unused data, thus giving them a place up the game. If you were to put it in X/Y, it might be read as a "Mystery Egg" data block. Due to imperfection of code back in the nineties, they must have overlooked the glitches, and used players to look for bugs. Should they have tested for every possible glitch in the game, they might have removed all the glitch pokemon and trainers.

== MissingNo. ==

Yes, this discussion again. All the arguments against it are not very good because it's clear that it means '''Missing Number''', which is further supported by the Japanese name. There is no valid reason (other than effort) for ''not'' changing this to the proper capitalization. [[User talk:SatoMew2|SatoMew]] 23:49, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
:Having re-read everything, I agree. The only argument with any substance for keeping it spelled Missingno. is that when a Pokemon has a name like Mewtwo or Dugtrio, only the first letter is capitalized. Two problems with this argument:
* Missingno isn't actually a Pokemon, in the sense that it was never designed by the developers.
* Missingno has a period at the end of it's name, giving validity to the idea that MissingNO is intended to be separate words.
:The real reason that it hasn't been moved is the inconsistent spelling in official responses to the glitch. My theory for the inconsistency is that someone assumed that the proper abbreviation for number was NO. [[User:Mzxrules|Mzxrules]] ([[User talk:Mzxrules|talk]]) 14:32, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
:There is no official spelling besides MISSINGNO., as far as I'm concerned, and nobody has suggested that would be used. Nintendo's page was likely written by some tech support person with no direct connection to whoever added it into the game. "MissingNo." might technically have more to do with the components of the name, but I personally like the way "Missingno." looks better. --[[User:FSX|FSX]] ([[User talk:FSX|talk]]) 22:07, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
::"No." is the standard English-language abbreviation for the word "number", thus MissingNo. (Missing Number). The games simply present it as MISSINGNO. because Pokémon names are in ALLCAPS anyway. [[User:SatoMew2|SatoMew2]] ([[User talk:SatoMew2|talk]]) 22:17, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

== Yellow Missingno. ==

There's a bit more to the Yellow Missingno. than that "it can crash the game". Whether or not the game will crash when you encounter it depends on an unused section of SRAM (the save file). It'll also write a bunch of data there when it's encountered and that's why it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. A lot of emulators initialize that area to all 0x00s, which means the player has to encounter Missingno. 14 times for it to work. The real GameBoy initializes it to 0xFFs, which grants two consecutive successful encounters. Relevant: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLuUWUeUTg4]
By the way, when the memory is at first 0x00s, the (successful) 14 attempt will give a "true cry" (about 7 minute's worth of glitch sounds).
I'd add all this in, but I can't edit the page. --[[User:Telinc1|Telinc1]] ([[User talk:Telinc1|talk]]) 15:52, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

== New Pokemon Red/Blue/Green Appearance ==

As you all know, Blue, Red, and Yellow are all being re-released for 3DS. Don't you think this page would need confirmation if he was going to show up as an official Pokemon in the new ones? I've heard from multiple friends that he'll be in the game, just with the glitches removed. If I could have some sort of confirmation as to if this is true, it could help expand an already outstanding article, AND we could move him off of Project Glitchdex.--[[User:MechaMew3|MechaMew3]] ([[User talk:MechaMew3|talk]]) 01:18, 29 March 2016 (UTC)MechaMew3

== MissingNo unique cries = not deleted pokemon cries? ==

In the article, it said that the unique cries of some MissingNo supports the theory that MissingNo was actually deleted Pokémon. Since the cries are "located in a table in between real Pokémon cries", what if the game has a "field" of cries located somewhere in data, and the MissingNos (and other glitch Pokémon) draw upon cry-unrelated data to determine which cry that pokemon has, and some MissingNos simply draw upon data that it interprets as data pointing to cries that just happen to be present in non-glitch pokemon. The MissingNos that are all 00 values is the game just jumping to default, because it can't interpret the data it's found as a cry.

Note: I know pretty much nothing about how the games actually work, this is as speculative as the theory that MissingNo is a deleted pokemon, except it needs more assumptions, and is probably wrong. If you are working for a company or something, this theory is NOT the theory you should use about unique MissingNo cries. This is just a crazy possibility.

IMPORTANT NOTE: NONE OF THIS IS CONCRETE FACT. THIS IS A THEORY.

== Pokémon Stadium 2 Conversion Aftermath Photos/Details? ==

Hi, big MissingNo. Fan here, but in my research on how I could get a legitimized MissingNo. of my own before the Pokémon Bank shutdown, I saw that you could sort of “Auto Legalize” them in the “'''In Pokémon Stadium'''” section by of course, saving the game via Stadium 2. Though in the gallery on the side and in the section itself, there's only Stadium 1 pictures and very basic information on what happens when doing so respectively; so then questions get raised like “'''What stays or goes after conversion'''?”, “'''Will the name be the same after they turn into a Ditto or will the name now just be''' '<nowiki/>'''Ditto'''<nowiki/>' '''and not MissingNo.'''?”, and “'''Would this be considered a''' ''''Legal'''<nowiki/>' '''Pokémon and if I could transfer this up a dozen generations or so using Bank'''/'''Home'''?” and et cetera etc. (To be fair the research '''was''' surface level and the '''only''' video example I could find online was someone wrongly using the sister glitch '''<nowiki/>'M''' and then evolving them into a Kangaskhan to legitimize them, and not anything of Stadium 2)

Though my research was '''admittedly''' surface level and was ill-timed (about started at 10:00 p.m. on my birthday ill-timed) I feel like it '''would''' be useful information or at least should be stated in the '''In Pokémon Stadium''' section like, what happens to MissingNo. after the conversion and would be '''mad''' appreciated as someone who doesn't own a Pokémon Blue cartridge and/or Nintendo 64 + Pokémon Stadium 2, HaHah <¦})

That's all from me though, if that doesn't seem like a good addition/change then you can disregard me, I just wanted to put it out there! [[User:GasmisenFeik|Jeanie]] ([[User talk:GasmisenFeik|talk]]) 04:47, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

:I think more detail would be good for those sections!
:To answer the last question, this would be a legal Pokémon insofar as it would become indistinguishable from a regular Ditto, but a Pokémon cannot be transferred to Stadium 2 and to later generations without cheating as the Virtual Console releases aren't compatible with Stadium 2. Other ways of transferring a MissingNo. up that would work on Virtual Console include the [[Rhydon glitch]], and I ''believe'' turning the [[MissingNo./B6|Kabutops fossil form of MissingNo.]] into a Rock/Ground type then trading it to Generation 2 would create a Pupitar that can be transferred up. '''[[User:Meeper12346|meeper! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ]]''' 05:11, 18 October 2026 (UTC)
::Thanks for agreeing!
::Also, I feel so silly now HaHah, I forgot to specify '''myself''' when I was talking about my own want for a legitimized MissingNo. But this is fantastic to know, thank you for that as well! When I was thinking of getting that “'''Legit'''” MissingNo. I was thinking in a physical, “'''legitimate'''”, sense at the time. And like, when talking about it with my fiancé in regard to the '''Time Capsule''', '''Pal Park''', '''Poké Transfer''', etc, he noted that there is no non-cheating/non-official way to transfer from Gen 2 to Gen 3. Like there is in regard to the stuff I said previously. So, I guess I am '''indeed''' stuck on the Virtual Console releases HaHah. So reading into the Rhydon glitch (and this video I found), I essentially just have to have an empty slot in my party with one or two Pokémon as one of the five that know Fly and Surf … I cannot encounter a Cubone in my play through … and that's it?
::On the topic of conversion though, I might as well ask here, but what's with the whole “Shiny Bulbasaur MissingNo.” thing as showcased in videos like “What Happens When You Encounter MissingNo in Every Pokémon Game?” and such? Does MissingNo. actually show as/turn into a shiny Bulbasaur if they're ported into Gen 6 & 7 or is that just like, a generalization of a missing Pokémon rather than MissingNo. themselves? I was under the impression that The Brick, the mess of pixels (the Yellow form), the Kabutops and Aerodactyl fossils, the ghost, a substitute doll, and Ditto were the only real forms of MissingNo. and then seeing that video with even more “forms” was a bit confusing, NGL … (This is mostly being asked because it sounds similar to the Rhydon glitch and like, I made a MissingNo. themed team for BDSP that after watching said video, had a shiny Bulbasaur, Ditto, Kabutops, Aerodactyl, and Marowak [as the stand-in for the ghost] featuring 'M as a shiny Charizard to fill in that empty spot so like, y'know, I feel like I missed something AHah …) [[User:GasmisenFeik|Jeanie]] ([[User talk:GasmisenFeik|talk]]) 23:05, 18 October 2026 (UTC)
:::So the Bulbasaur glitch Pokémon are seperate glitch Pokémon only found in later generations; those videos calling them MissingNo. is kind of a misnomer (''missingnomer?'') because they don't really have anything in common with the MissingNo. found in Red/Blue, aside from also being glitches. The same also applies to [[Decamark]], a separate glitch Pokémon in Generation III. You can read more about the Bulbasaur glitchmons here:
:::* [[Generation IV hybrid]]
:::* [[Generation VI 724+ glitch Pokémon]]
:::* [[Generation VII 804+ glitch Pokémon]]
:::As for if MissingNo. would become one of these glitches if transferred to a later game, that'd be impossible to know as the functionality doesn't exist. Pokémon Bank prevents MissingNo. from being transferred unless it has already been converted to a legitimate Pokémon (including moves), and Pokémon from Generation I and II can't be brought to Generation III.
:::And yeah, for the Rhydon glitch, you just can't register a Cubone as "seen" in the Pokédex at all; this includes both Trainer battles and wild encounters. The Substitute doll form of MissingNo. is only seen in Pokémon Stadium.
:::I hope this helps! '''[[User:Meeper12346|meeper! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ]]''' 00:03, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

}}

== Inspiration for Vivillon and the number 666 ==

Howdy, so, I'm pretty certain there's an aspect of Vivillon's design that has gone completely unexamined for the entirety of its existence. I 1st noticed it during Generation 6 and it's come to my attention recently that it is not common knowledge as I thought it was.

Reason I'm making this a discussion instead of adding it to the article is that it would need to either be added to the trivia section or get it's own minor section in the article which links to another article. Additionally my source for this is my own eyes so, yeah, you'd be crazy to accept it without a discussion 1st.

anyway preface done, here goes.

'''Vivillon's entire design is primarily a reference to Missingno.'''

It was not given its Dex number Arbitrarily, the 666 was in reference to the 1st in game pokemon Devil.

This can be seen throughout almost all aspects of it's design, tho primarily in it's wings, which Missingno is just straight up visible in, for every pattern, at the top of each wing
[[File:Masters0666Icy.png|alt=picture of Icypattern missingno|center|thumb|the top segments of its wings just are the Classic "L-Shape" Missingno. There's 2 of them.]]
if it was just that alone, yes that is compelling but, almost all of Vivillon's Design (apart from Moves and BST) are further Evidence.

# the Butterfly tails are at the top, which is not typical of Butterfly's, looking it up, I cannot find an example of it easily irl.
# The Patterns changing based on the real world region references how Missingno and the Old man Glitch changes between regional versions of the game
# the Bug typing is obvious. the way you get Missingno is by exploiting a bug in the game
# the base Body colour of all Vivillon is a 4-tone Monochrome like the display of the Gameboy (the offcolor beige may be a reference to the Normal dualtyping of Missingno)
# the different patterns being basically pixel art

I'm sure there are things I've missed

I even intentionally left out a couple of things that I'll add to a comment here as I consider them flimsy evidence for this.

But as Missingno is straight up just in the pokemon's Design, twice, I ask that you please consider this. [[User:LilithSD|LilithSD]] ([[User talk:LilithSD|talk]]) 01:11, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

:this coming now is brought to you by [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68ZlkMSGBlI this Gnoggin video] where I just got so mad yesterday that he didn't bring up Vivillon's connections to Missingno it made me realise that somehow, no-one else has noticed that Missingno is there, at the top of the design, twice.
:anyway extra "evidence"
:# the Flying type is a reference to the Bird typing unique to Missingno
:# that Vivillon is said to seek out water is a reference to where you find Missingno, that being on the eastern shore of Cinnabar after talking to that old man (who ""hadn't had his coffee yet"")
:I also want to say that Spewpa itself may be a reference to the Oldman, but I've got literally nothing for that. it being in Smash and it's description being "Don't mess with it and it won't mess with you", I think there's something there on that. if so I would then also place Scatterbug as being the weedle he catches in the tutorial, but again, I've got absolutely nothing to go on for that except vibes [[User:LilithSD|LilithSD]] ([[User talk:LilithSD|talk]]) 01:38, 18 October 2026 (UTC)
:I wouldn't say any of this is particularly strong evidence. I do find the connection to pixel art compelling, and this is already noted on the Origin section; but while I see the resemblance in the wings I'm not super convinced it's an intentional homage to Missingno. since it's a pretty abstract shape. Why it's there, I couldn't tell you, maybe to evoke voxel art by giving its wings sharper, pixel-like edges? But then I also couldn't tell you why {{p|Swalot}} has diamonds, so maybe it's just a cool design flair to make the Pokémon stand out. Missingno. has also not been associated with the number 666; it uses the number 000 when captured, which has so far only been shared by {{p|Victini}} in the Unova Pokédex.

Junichi Masuda composed the entirety of Red and Blue's soundtrack, including the title theme, on a {{wp|Commodore Amiga}} computer he owned at home, developing a converter program so that he could bring the songs he'd composed into the [[Game Freak]] offices. Masuda considers the Opening Movie theme to be one of his favorite tracks he has composed for the series.<ref>[https://gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2014/05/13/pokemon%27s-music-master-the-man-behind-the-catchiest-songs Pokémon's Music Master: The Man Behind The Catchiest Songs] - Game Informer</ref> The song was composed using the images of the battle scenes as reference.<ref>[https://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/2008/02/index.html No. 125] - HIDDEN POWER of masuda [Blog]</ref>

==Appearances==

{{GlitchResearch|How do battle-specific glitches work in Link Battles considering different language versions where the glitches are fixed and different games altogether (e.g.: Acid rain glitch in a Link Battle with DP)?}}

:''For other glitches in this generation, see [[List of glitches in Generation IV]]''
This is a '''list of [[Pokémon battle]] glitches in [[Generation IV]] games'''.
==All games==
===U-turn flinch item oversight===
Due to the way the game resolves activation of [[King's Rock]] and [[Razor Fang]]'s flinch effects, only whether the Pokémon selected after the switch-out is holding one of these items is taken into the account.

{{YouTubeEmbed|xwWE0Tsx2cA|@Etch|name=Etchy|bug}}

==Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver==
===Fire Fang Wonder Guard glitch===
{{m|Fire Fang}} is able to hit through {{a|Wonder Guard}}, even if the target does not have a weakness to {{type|Fire}} moves. This does not apply to {{m|Ice Fang}}, {{m|Thunder Fang}}, or any other Fire-type moves. This is possible if the opponent copies Wonder Guard by {{a|Trace}}. This happens due to a typo within the [[Wikipedia:Switch statement|switch statement]] for a function for Wonder Guard in relation to [[:Category:Moves with a charging turn|moves with a charging turn]] and {{m|Bide}}. The function is intended to compare move effect codes to a list in the function to prevent specific moves' charging turn(s) from being affected by Wonder Guard. {{m|Shadow Force}}, which has a move effect code of 272, is intended to be a part of the switch statement, but Fire Fang, which is 273, is in the statement instead. Since Fire Fang doesn't have a charging turn, this allows it to always bypass Wonder Guard. Notably, despite not being a part of this function, Shadow Force behaves normally against a foe with Wonder Guard.<ref>https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/prototype-development-diamond-pearl-assets-leak.3664842/#post-8480222</ref>

{{YouTubeEmbed|460e5of4NEg|channel/UCfA2k3vubAAytJIarM7G2zQ|name= Pokemon Glitches for Bulbapedia|platinum}}

===Invisible status condition glitch===
If a Pokémon has a non-volatile [[status condition]], if its {{status|confusion}} or {{status|infatuation}} is cured by {{a|Own Tempo}} or {{a|Oblivious}}, the status condition icon will disappear from the HP bar while that Pokémon is in battle. The status condition icon is still displayed in the party menu; if the Pokémon is switched out, the status condition icon will appear again when it is switched back in.

The status condition remains entirely in effect, maintaining its effects and preventing the Pokémon from being afflicted by another status condition. This bug is only a display error.

{{YouTubeEmbed|BoYfjwThJ1g|channel/UCfA2k3vubAAytJIarM7G2zQ|name= Pokemon Glitches for Bulbapedia |platinum}}

===Pressure switch glitch===
If a Pokémon successfully uses {{m|Counter}}, {{m|Magic Coat}}, {{m|Metal Burst}}, {{m|Mirror Coat}}, or {{m|Snatch}} against a Pokémon with {{a|Pressure}}, the move used will lose 2 [[PP]]. However, if the Pokémon switches out the turn after using one of those moves, the move used will regain 1 PP, as if it was not affected by Pressure.

{{YouTubeEmbed|Z2QgRIaKfLg|@caznovia|name=Cazenovia|normal}}

===Rage glitch===
{{main|Rage glitch}}
If a Pokémon that is under the effect of {{m|Rage}} selects a move other than Rage, it removes all volatile [[status condition]]s, except Rage.

===Sprite translation glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Is translation flipped or the same when perform by the other side in the battle?}}
Each time a Pokémon performs the animation for {{m|Facade}}, {{m|Strength}}, {{m|DynamicPunch}}, {{m|Spit Up}}, {{m|Helping Hand}}, a Pokémon sprite will be translated after the animation is completed:
* Facade translates the user's sprite up one pixel
* Strength and Spit Up translate the user's sprite right two pixels
* DynamicPunch and Helping Hand translate the target's sprite left one pixel

While the difference may not be obvious after only a few uses, after repeated uses the change becomes very apparent. If a Pokémon performs Facade's animation enough times, its sprite can be translated so high that a gap between the bottom of its sprite and the bottom of the window emerges.

Using multiple of these affected moves allows combining their translations.

{{YouTubeEmbed|H33bYm_1JJo|channel/UCAe9aElPqcJnxduy0mQdsFQ|name=Pizza Cat|normal}}

===Transform glitches===
{{main|List of Transform glitches}}

==Pokémon Diamond and Pearl==
===All languages===
====Arceus Plate glitch====
While in [[Pal Park]] or [[Great Marsh]], if the player has an {{p|Arceus}} holding a [[Plate]] in the front of their party, and initiates a battle, the game will [[game freeze|freeze]].

{{YouTubeEmbed|pTMKes-7WIk|ChickasaurusGL|Normal}}

====Protection bypass glitch====
If an attack is given perfect accuracy through the effect of a move ({{m|Lock-On}}/{{m|Mind Reader}}), the weather ({{m|Thunder}} in [[rain]], or {{m|Blizzard}} in {{weather|hail}}), or an Ability ({{a|No Guard}}), it has a chance to hit through {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Detect}} equal to <code>(100 - move {{stat|accuracy}})%</code>. This may simply be an inversion of the result of the move's hit or miss check. [[One-hit knockout move|OHKO]] moves are unaffected, and will never hit through Protect or Detect.

{{YouTubeEmbed|4ZFi31JJImE|channel/UCfA2k3vubAAytJIarM7G2zQ|name= Pokemon Glitches for Bulbapedia |diamond}}

====Starly defeating first partner Pokémon oversight====
During the first battle of the game with the player's [[first partner Pokémon]] against a wild Starly, if the player's Pokémon reaches red HP (at most 10/48 pixels of the HP bar, or 20.8%), Starly is programmed to flee instead of attack so that the player does not lose. [[Critical hit]]s also do not occur in this battle. However, under specific circumstances it is possible for Starly's Tackle to hit the player's Pokémon at above 20% HP and reduce it to 0, bypassing the red HP state and causing the player to [[black out]]. This causes the game to crash.

Specifically, if the player's Pokémon's HP has been reduced to 4/19 (~21% HP) and Starly's Tackle inflicts exactly 4 damage, it reduces the player's Pokémon's HP to 0 (resulting in the game crash). For this to be possible, the player must choose {{p|Chimchar}} as their first partner Pokémon, as the other first partner Pokémon cannot have a maximum HP of 19 or less at level 5.

The possible values for Starly's Attack stat are 6 and 7. The possible values for the player's Chimchar's Defense stat are 8, 9, 10, and 11. If Starly's Attack stat is 7 and Chimchar's Defense stat is 8 or 9, Starly will deal 3 damage 15/16 (93.75%) of the time and 4 damage 1/16 (6.25%) of the time. For the other Attack and Defense stats, it is not possible for Starly to inflict 4 damage to Chimchar.

{{YouTubeEmbed|mEbr5u0IZ6s|channel/UC3qvrcfvMadcTghQODIwGNQ|name=ペレはいつまでもポケモンマスター|grass}}

The probability of this occurring is detailed below:
{| class="wikitable"
! rowspan=2 | Condition
! rowspan=2 | Requirement
! colspan=2 | Probability
|-
! Calculation
! Value (%)
|-
| Chimchar's HP stat is 19
| Chimchar's HP [[IV]] is 11 or lower
| <math>12 \over 32</math>
| class="r" | 37.50%
|-
| Chimchar's Defense stat is 8 or 9
| Chimchar has a negative [[Nature]] for Defense, or a Defense IV of 11 or lower
| <math>{4 \over 25} + {12 \over 32} - {4 \over 25} \cdot {12 \over 32}</math>
| class="r" | 47.50%
|-
| Starly's Attack stat is 7
| Starly's has a Nature that does not decrease Attack
| <math>21 \over 25</math>
| class="r" | 84.00%
|-
| Starly reduces Chimchar's HP to 4/19
| Starly deals 3 damage five times in a row, or Starly deals 4 damage three times and 3 damage once (in any order)
| <math>\left({15 \over 16}\right)^5 + 4 \cdot {15 \over 16} \cdot \left({1 \over 16}\right)^3</math>
| class="r" | ~72.51%
|-
| Starly deals 4 damage on the final hit
| Starly deals 4 damage on the final hit
| <math>{1 \over 16}</math>
| class="r" | 6.25%
|}

Assuming the player picked Chimchar and does not KO Starly before it has the chance to land the sufficient number of hits, the probably of this crash occurring is the product of the probabilities of each of the conditions being met. This comes to approximately 0.68%.

====Tower Tycoon event skipping====
If the player achieves a 20 {{pkmn|battle}} streak in the {{si|Battle Tower}} and battles {{tc|Tower Tycoon}} [[Palmer]] by choosing the option "REST" and then the option "NO" instead of choosing the option "KEEP GOING", a normal {{pkmn|Trainer}} will appear instead; with the same roster of the Tower Tycoon. This corrupted Trainer data also yields the otherwise unused dialogue "Now come! Show me, the Tower Tycoon, what you're really made of!" Defeating the Trainer will grant the player 1 BP instead of the normal 20 BP.

{{YouTubeEmbed|ea4b3U4g3MA|channel/UC1IlrFYOMlkHNA4NAgphqQw|name=The King Burger|tower}}

====U-turn Choice glitch====
If {{m|U-turn}} is used to change to a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} holding a {{cat|Choice items|Choice item}} that also knows the move U-turn, that Pokémon will be forced to use U-turn despite not having used a move.

{{YouTubeEmbed|nj2joAwbDX8|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|bug}}

===Japanese language===
====Pursuit Choice glitch====
In the Japanese versions, when a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} holding a {{cat|Choice items|Choice item}} uses {{m|Pursuit}} and the target Pokémon switches out, the Pokémon holding the item is allowed to change its move on the next turn.

====Slow Start oversight====
In the Japanese versions, removing {{a|Slow Start}} (via moves like {{m|Skill Swap}}, {{m|Worry Seed}} or {{m|Gastro Acid}}) does not undo the Attack and Speed drop. This was fixed in the localizations.

==Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum==
===Trapping Ability flee glitch===
If the player is in a {{pkmn2|wild}} [[Double Battle]] (which, at the time, was only possible when traveling with one of the [[Stat Trainers]]) and the left-side wild Pokémon has {{a|Arena Trap}}, {{a|Magnet Pull}} or {{a|Shadow Tag}} and the player is trapped as a result, attempting to flee will bring up the message that the user cannot flee from the right side wild Pokémon rather than the left side wild Pokémon.

This occurs even if the wild Pokémon on the right side was knocked out, instead resulting in the message "The wild [[Bad Egg]] prevents escape with [Ability]!".

While none of the wild Pokémon that can be encountered in a Double Battle have any trapping abilities, this glitch can be seen in-game by using a Pokémon to knock out one of the opposing Pokémon as well as the ally Stat Trainer's Pokémon, then having that Pokémon faint, replacing it with a Pokémon that has both {{m|Skill Swap}} and {{a|Trace}} and which is faster than the opposing wild Pokémon. As there is only one wild Pokémon remaining, Trace has a 50% chance to not activate; if this occurs, the ability can be transferred to the opposing Pokémon using Skill Swap, where it has a subsequent 50% chance to not activate. If Trace fails to activate both times and the Pokémon that used Skill Swap faints during the same turn it used the move, the wild Pokémon's Trace will activate once the Pokémon is replaced, triggering the glitch if the Pokémon switching in has a trapping ability. This glitch can also be performed by using the [[Rage glitch]] in order to teach Skill Swap to any Pokémon with a trapping ability (with the exception of {{p|Wynaut}} and {{p|Wobbuffet}}, which cannot learn {{m|Mimic}}), then using Skill Swap on the Pokémon on the left side.

===Double Shiny Pokémon encounter glitch===
During the times where an NPC accompanies the player for parts of the game, the player will encounter wild Pokémon only through [[Double Battle]]s. During this time, it is possible to encounter [[Shiny Pokémon]]. However, possibly due to an oversight in the programming, if a player manages to encounter two Shiny Pokémon of the same species at once, the game will show the shiny status for the left Pokémon before {{DL|Game freeze|softlocking}}. The freeze was fixed in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, although there are no Double Battle wild encounters in these games.<ref>[https://pokehacking.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=30 [DPPT] Fixing the double shiny encounter crash - PokeHacking]</ref>

==Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver==
===Ace Trainer Kate oversight===
When starting a battle with {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Kate on {{rt|34|Johto}}, she will only {{pkmn|battle}} the player if they walk straight down the path. If the player walks to either side of her, she will apologize as she would after the player has defeated her. If the player walks down the path towards her after talking to her on the side she will see them while facing the wrong way and then battle. If the player talks to her at the side, then goes directly above her, talks to her again from above and goes up, she will see the player while they are moving up, walk up, and end up on the same tile as the player's [[walking Pokémon]].

==Pokémon Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver==
===Acid rain glitch===
{{main|Acid rain}}

===Battle Tower overflow===
If the player surpasses a streak of 1792 (256 rounds of 7) in the {{si|Battle Tower}}, the opponents that appear are as if the player's streak were its actual value {{wp|modulo}} 1792.

[[Palmer]] will appear as the opponent for battle number 1813 (1792 + 21) with his Silver Print team. However, he will be introduced like a normal Trainer and has no pre-battle dialogue, also the player only earns 7 [[Battle Point|BP]] for that streak of 7.

==Pokémon Battle Revolution==
===Arceus glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Substitute breaking}}
If the player uses {{m|Baton Pass}} to pass a {{OBP|substitute|doll}} on to an {{p|Arceus}} holding a [[Plate]], it will appear invisible after coming out. If the same Arceus then uses an attack which does not deal damage, the game will freeze after the animation has finished.

{{YouTubeEmbed|bkfLUZMH-G4|channel/UC1IlrFYOMlkHNA4NAgphqQw|name=The King Burger|normal}}

===Collision errors===
Occasionally, when a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} uses a certain move on another Pokémon, part of its modeling will go straight through the other Pokémon. For example, when an {{p|Electivire}} uses {{m|Cross Chop}} on a {{p|Metang}}, part of its head will go through Metang.

===Life Orb glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Other move animations, if any. Are there such animations which apply to moves which deal self-inflicted damage?}}
The animation for {{m|Heat Wave}} activates after the [[Life Orb]] [[recoil]] rather than before it. This means that if a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} used Heat Wave with at most 10% of its {{stat|HP}} left, it would [[Fainting|faint]] and the Heat Wave animation would seemingly come out of nowhere.

{{YouTubeEmbed|4ZFi31JJImE|channel/UCfA2k3vubAAytJIarM7G2zQ|name= Pokemon Glitches for Bulbapedia |diamond}}

====Starly defeating first partner Pokémon oversight====
During the first battle of the game with the player's [[first partner Pokémon]] against a wild Starly, if the player's Pokémon reaches red HP (at most 10/48 pixels of the HP bar, or 20.8%), Starly is programmed to flee instead of attack so that the player does not lose. [[Critical hit]]s also do not occur in this battle. However, under specific circumstances it is possible for Starly's Tackle to hit the player's Pokémon at above 20% HP and reduce it to 0, bypassing the red HP state and causing the player to [[black out]]. This causes the game to crash.

Specifically, if the player's Pokémon's HP has been reduced to 4/19 (~21% HP) and Starly's Tackle inflicts exactly 4 damage, it reduces the player's Pokémon's HP to 0 (resulting in the game crash). For this to be possible, the player must choose {{p|Chimchar}} as their first partner Pokémon, as the other first partner Pokémon cannot have a maximum HP of 19 or less at level 5.

The possible values for Starly's Attack stat are 6 and 7. The possible values for the player's Chimchar's Defense stat are 8, 9, 10, and 11. If Starly's Attack stat is 7 and Chimchar's Defense stat is 8 or 9, Starly will deal 3 damage 15/16 (93.75%) of the time and 4 damage 1/16 (6.25%) of the time. For the other Attack and Defense stats, it is not possible for Starly to inflict 4 damage to Chimchar.

If the player is in a {{pkmn2|wild}} [[Double Battle]] (which, at the time, was only possible when traveling with one of the [[Stat Trainers]]) and the left-side wild Pokémon has {{a|Arena Trap}}, {{a|Magnet Pull}} or {{a|Shadow Tag}} and the player is trapped as a result, attempting to flee will bring up the message that the user cannot flee from the right side wild Pokémon rather than the left side wild Pokémon.

When starting a battle with {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Kate on {{rt|34|Johto}}, she will only {{pkmn|battle}} the player if they walk straight down the path. If the player walks to either side of her, she will apologize as she would after the player has defeated her. If the player walks down the path towards her after talking to her on the side she will see them while facing the wrong way and then battle. If the player talks to her at the side, then goes directly above her, talks to her again from above and goes up, she will see the player while they are moving up, walk up, and end up on the same tile as the player's [[walking Pokémon]].

===Battle Tower overflow===
If the player surpasses a streak of 1792 (256 rounds of 7) in the {{si|Battle Tower}}, the opponents that appear are as if the player's streak were its actual value {{wp|modulo}} 1792.

[[Palmer]] will appear as the opponent for battle number 1813 (1792 + 21) with his Silver Print team. However, he will be introduced like a normal Trainer and has no pre-battle dialogue, also the player only earns 7 [[Battle Point|BP]] for that streak of 7.

===Arceus glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Substitute breaking}}
If the player uses {{m|Baton Pass}} to pass a {{OBP|substitute|doll}} on to an {{p|Arceus}} holding a [[Plate]], it will appear invisible after coming out. If the same Arceus then uses an attack which does not deal damage, the game will freeze after the animation has finished.

===Collision errors===
Occasionally, when a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} uses a certain move on another Pokémon, part of its modeling will go straight through the other Pokémon. For example, when an {{p|Electivire}} uses {{m|Cross Chop}} on a {{p|Metang}}, part of its head will go through Metang.

===Life Orb glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Other move animations, if any. Are there such animations which apply to moves which deal self-inflicted damage?}}
The animation for {{m|Heat Wave}} activates after the [[Life Orb]] [[recoil]] rather than before it. This means that if a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} used Heat Wave with at most 10% of its {{stat|HP}} left, it would [[Fainting|faint]] and the Heat Wave animation would seemingly come out of nowhere.

'''Trace''' (Japanese: '''トレース''' ''Trace'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
Trace [[Ability change|copies the Ability]] of a random adjacent opponent, replacing Trace itself.

This is activated when the Pokémon with Trace enters battle or when a Pokémon gains Trace. In [[Wonder Launcher]] battles, Trace can be activated by an ally's Ability Urge.

Trace can be swapped by {{m|Skill Swap}}. In [[Generation III|Generations III]] and {{gen|IV}}, Trace can be copied by {{m|Role Play}}, but In later generations, Trace cannot be copied by Role Play, {{a|Power of Alchemy}}, or {{a|Receiver}}. {{m|Entrainment}} fails if used by a Pokémon with Trace.

====Generation III====
It can copy any Ability, but if it copies Trace, it will not activate again.

Trace is not activated in battles against [[Ghost (Pokémon Tower)|unidentified ghosts]] (including the [[Marowak (ghost)|ghost Marowak]]).

====Generation IV====
There are now Abilities that cannot be copied by Trace.

While a Pokémon with Trace is in battle, if at any time an opponent has an Ability that can be copied by Trace, Trace will activate and replace itself with that Ability. Trace can only activate once while a Pokémon is on the field; even if the Pokémon gains Trace again (e.g. via {{m|Skill Swap}}) after activating it the first time, Trace cannot activate until after it is switched out.

In a [[Double Battle]] with only one opponent remaining, if a Pokémon with Trace is sent into battle to replace a fainted Pokémon, Trace has a 50% chance to select the non-present opponent and not activate. Once a Pokémon takes its turn (uses a move, switches out, etc.), Trace will activate and copy the Ability of the opponent that is present. This also has a chance to occur under the same conditions if a Pokémon receives Trace after a faster Pokémon gives it the ability using Skill Swap. If Trace does not activate after the slower Pokémon receives it through Skill Swap, and the faster Pokémon is knocked out during the same turn, Trace will subsequently activate once a new Pokémon is sent out.

====Generation V====
When a Pokémon with Trace enters battle, it copies a random adjacent opponent's Ability (replacing itself). If no opponents have Abilities that can be copied by Trace when the Pokémon with Trace enters battle, Trace cannot be activated until it enters battle again.

====Generation VI onward====
While a Pokémon with Trace is in battle, if at any time an adjacent opponent has an Ability that can be copied by Trace, Trace will activate and replace itself with that Ability. Even if a Pokémon had previously activated Trace, if it gains Trace again (e.g. via {{m|Skill Swap}}), Trace will activate at the first opportunity.

===Abilities that cannot be copied===
Trace cannot copy any of the following Abilities in generations marked with a ✘.

==In other games==
==={{g|Mystery Dungeon series}}===
When a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a move or regular attack, Trace replaces itself with the Ability of the attacking Pokémon. Trace does not distinguish between foes and allies, and can be activated by beneficial moves such as {{m|Safeguard}}. Prior to ''Gates to Infinity'', Pokémon can have more than one Ability—if a Pokémon has more than one Ability, Trace chooses one at random. The copied Ability lasts until the Pokémon enters a new floor.

KISEKI

2026-09-25T01:42:44Z

Meeper12346: Added PokémonXP information, cleanup

'''KISEKI''' (Japanese: '''KISEKI'''), sometimes stylized as "Kiseki" in some English localizations, is the credits theme to [[Pokémon X and Y]] and [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. The song is played during the credits of both games, with X and Y's credits displaying separate lyrics in each of the seven languages the games were released in on the lower screen of the Nintendo 3DS console. In Legends: Z-A, a new arrangement (titled '''KISEKI -reprise-''') is used, with no lyrics appearing during the credits.

When ''KISEKI'' is played during the credits of X and Y, lyrics to the verses are displayed in two languages. The first is the language the game is played in. If played in English, Japanese, or Korean, the second language is French (referencing the Kalos region's basis, France); if played in Spanish, French, Italian, or German, the second language is Japanese, displayed with [[wp:Kana|kana]]. Lyrics to the chorus are shown simultaneously in all seven languages Pokémon X and Y were released in, with the game language shown at the top.

It was composed and arranged by [[Shota Kageyama]] and written by [[Junichi Masuda]] and Kenji Matsushima. A version with vocals in English was first performed at the [[Pokémon: Symphonic Evolutions]] event on August 15, 2014, while a version with vocals in Japanese by [[Shōko Nakagawa]] was released on the Limited Pokémon Edition of the {{single|DreamDream}} single released on February 18, 2015. A vocal version of the Legends: Z-A arrangement of the track was performed by Toastymarshmellow during the Pokémon Legends: Z-A concert hosted by [[Carlos Eiene]] at [[PokémonXP]] during the [[2026 Pokémon World Championships]] from August 28 to 30, 2026.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffAgsEBddjs Pokémon Legends: Z-A Concert by Carlos "insaneintherain" Eiene at PokémonXP - San Francisco 2026 - YouTube]</ref>

The song's title comes from the Japanese word 奇跡 ''kiseki'', meaning miracles.

| <ab>You and I were born
right here in the same world.
For this one brief life,
we're beneath the same sky.

The great flow of time.
The wide expanse of space.
We are lucky enough
to share this lifetime we get.

We can gain more if we give.
By taking, we only lose.

Let us make this a new age
where we show our gratitude.

There's a fragile bud of hope,
blooming in each of our hearts.
Don't you take that away.
Our dreams are meant to be shared.

Let it grow. Let it live.
Let us see what it will bring.
When we share in our love,
we make a beautiful world.

Search it out, and find the way:
the point where we can all meet.
The point where we're all the same.
There it lies: the future we seek.

Start from there, and then we'll forge
a world where all can be free.
Free to dream, and free to smile.
Free to be who we will be.

Let's make sure we create...

A world of our hopes and dreams.

In our brief lives,
we've managed to meet.
Treasure this gift,
this precious time that we have.

In our brief lives,
we've managed to meet.
Treasure this gift,
this precious time that we have.</ab>

our meeting

on one side of the universe, in the center of time,
you can say, is a moment's miracle

Hold each others hands and tell them that you love them

We’ll make this generation together

For our small seed of dreams that we share
remove selfishness and try growing it pure

Understanding each other and sharing truth
Let’s tend the blooming flowers of our future together

During the moment you and I meet
a relationship starts and fate is born

The moment of our encounter becomes a blinding gift
It makes the dark night sky shimmer brightly

A small coincidence

makes a future

In this flowing
time
is the miracle
of our meeting

Talk:Wonder Guard (Ability)

2026-08-06T17:52:57Z

Meeper12346: /* Entrainment */ Reply

== Curious trivia ==

In at least [[Generation III]], attempting to use a {{t|Normal}} or {{type|Fighting}} move on a Shedinja will yield "Shedinja avoided damage with Wonder Guard!" despite that the move would not be expected to have an effect on Shedinja's Ghost typing anyway.

In at least [[Generation VI]], the game instead declares "It doesn't affect Shedinja...", with the type immunity taking priority over Wonder Guard.

I haven't tested what the games say in Gen IV or V, or if there are any further implications of the change in messages displayed. --''[[User:Stratelier|Stratelier]]'' 07:38, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
:This also happens in Generation V. Not sure about Generation IV, though. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 13:59, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
::I just tested this in HeartGold against a Furret using Quick Attack. It said exactly this: "SHEDINJA avoided damage by using Wonder Guard!" --[[User:GuyPerfect|GuyPerfect]] ([[User talk:GuyPerfect|talk]]) 16:41, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

== Wonder Guard + Ring Target ==

So, how would ring target work with the ability Wonder Guard? Does it simply make the immune moves (aka normal and fighting) hit for 1x damage, making them ineffective against Shedinja OR does it take every immunity granted by Wonder Guard and make Shedinja vulnerable? ([[User:Arcalargo|Arcalargo]] ([[User talk:Arcalargo|talk]]) 21:24, 10 May 2016 (UTC))
:The attacks would still have no effect on Shedinja, but let's say that someone gave Wonder Guard to a Spiritomb. If Spiritomb had a Ring Target, Fighting attacks become Super Effective and thus will not be protected by Wonder Guard. [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 21:29, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

== Stealth Rocks' effect on Wonder Guard ==
If a Pokémon with Wonder Guard isn't weak to the Rock type, will they still get hurt by Stealth Rocks? [[User:Gryphon827|Gryphon827]] ([[User talk:Gryphon827|talk]]) 15:51, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

:Well. . . .I can't prove it myself, but I think so. Wonder Guard doesn't prevent indirect damage, and I don't know if something with it can get hit by Spikes, but I know they can be hit by ''Toxic'' Spikes, so my guess is that Wonder Guard won't protect from all three.[[User:Qwertyo76|Qwertyo76]] ([[User talk:Qwertyo76|talk]]) 16:24, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

== NPC Trainers switching to bypass Wonder Guard ==

I've observed NPC trainers switching Pokémon when the current Pokémon can't damage Shedinja in Pokémon Emerald. This is even with trainers who would not normally switch Pokémon. I would assume this behaviour is present in all later generations, although I have not yet tested this. I will also be looking to test this on Ruby and Sapphire to see if the older Generation 3 games have this behaviour.

There are also specific conditions that I'm keen to test but I lack the game knowledge to know how to set them up:

-is the amount of remaining PP considered when switching i.e. will the NPC switch to a Pokémon even if it has no PP left for moves that would bypass Wonder Guard?

-Will an NPC switch if they have no damaging moves available, but have a Pokémon that can inflict a damaging status?

-Will an NPC switch to a Pokémon that has a damaging ability, such as Rough Skin? Does it make a difference if the conditions for the ability cannot be met e.g. the Pokémon does not have any contact-type moves that would trigger Rough Skin?

-Will an NPC switch if a Pokémon other than Shedinja has Wonder Guard? Will it consider the typing of the new Pokémon, or does the game assume a Pokémon with Wonder Guard must be Bug/Ghost type? [[User:SadNoodleSoup|SadNoodleSoup]] ([[User talk:SadNoodleSoup|talk]]) 14:38, 26 January 2026 (UTC)

:So, in the Emerald Gym battle with Juan, he will not switch out his Luvdisc and instead always seems to use Sweet Kiss, presumably to inflict confusion. Which suggests that NPC trainers will attempt to inflict damaging statuses to get around Wonder Guard. I don't know if it's quite definitive enough yet though. [[User:SadNoodleSoup|SadNoodleSoup]] ([[User talk:SadNoodleSoup|talk]]) 02:02, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
::In order to make a Wonder Guard switch, they need to have something in the back that can actually hit Shedinja. Juan doesn't. [[User:SadisticMystic|SadisticMystic]] ([[User talk:SadisticMystic|talk]]) 05:22, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
:::Oh, yes you're right. I had my brain a little twisted around and was thinking that Taunt was a damaging move. [[User:SadNoodleSoup|SadNoodleSoup]] ([[User talk:SadNoodleSoup|talk]]) 14:01, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
:[[User:SadNoodleSoup|SadNoodleSoup]] I've seen modded gameplay videos from a user named Auke1993 in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] with a Sableye who had Wonder Guard the whole time, but I'm not quite sure if that really means anything though. [[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 22:24, 19 May 2026 (UTC)

== Entrainment ==

The rule for Wonder Guard seems to be that Skill Swap never worked and Role Play cannot copy it either (which each page mentions as well). I used an edited Shedinja in White 2 to confirm Entrainment works, which aligns with the Entrainment page; the issue is nothing has both Trace and Entrainment, and attempting to Skill Swap (and presumably Role Play) Trace onto something that has Entrainment causes Trace to activate immediately, at least in VI+. Unless perhaps in Gen V only, Trace does not activate immediately and can activate if you switch out and back in?

The Mystery Dungeon section on Entrainment also mentions it does not work with WG, but trying to Skill Swap Trace in SMD had the same result, so it may be even more difficult to test there. [[User:Theroux|Theroux]] ([[User talk:Theroux|talk]]) 13:14, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

:hi, thank you for confirming the entrainment interaction!! you wouldn't need entrainment to test if trace can copy wonder guard though - you can switch into your trace pokemon against a wild shedinja, for example (most easily done by first allowing a wild ditto to transform into shedinja) or skill swap trace in a double battle :) '''[[User:Meeper12346|meeper! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ]]''' 14:46, 6 August 2026 (UTC)
::I did read that Trace copies WG, I just did not know the simplest method for a WG user to use Entrainment legitimately, as I did not know for certain if Trace would grab WG after swapping. But Mimic on Shedinja is a good example.
::You mentioned Shed could use Role Play too, but that would only change its own ability, right? Or can Role Play target WG in Gen III? [[User:Theroux|Theroux]] ([[User talk:Theroux|talk]]) 16:41, 6 August 2026 (UTC)
:::ah sorry! you're correct, role play to my knowledge only works if the wonder guard user is the one to use it. so it would replace shedinja's ability '''[[User:Meeper12346|meeper! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ]]''' 17:52, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

|}
'''Wonder Guard''' (Japanese: '''ふしぎなまもり''' ''Mysterious Protection'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It is the [[signature Ability]] of {{p|Shedinja}}.

==Effect==
===In battle===
A Pokémon with Wonder Guard is immune to damaging moves that are not [[super effective]], except {{m|Struggle}}.

This also applies to damaging moves that do not increase their damage based on type effectiveness, such {{cat|moves that deal direct damage}}, {{cat|counterattacks|counterattack moves}}, and {{cat|one-hit knockout moves}}. For example, a {{p|Shedinja}} ({{2t|Bug|Ghost}}) with Wonder Guard is immune to {{m|Metal Burst}} ({{type|Steel}}), {{m|Psywave}} ({{type|Psychic}}), and {{m|Fissure}} ({{type|Ground}}), but not {{m|Night Shade}} ({{type|Ghost}}).

Wonder Guard does not protect against [[status move]]s (for instance, {{m|Tail Whip}} or {{m|Poison Powder}}), and it does not prevent indirect damage such as from {{status|burn}}, {{status|poison}}, {{status|confusion}}, [[weather]], [[recoil]], or [[List of moves that cause entry hazards|entry hazards]].

Wonder Guard can be bypassed by moves and Abilities that [[ignoring Abilities|ignore Abilities]] (such as {{m|Sunsteel Strike}} and {{a|Mold Breaker}}).

Wonder Guard can be copied by {{a|Trace}} or acquired with a transformation from {{m|Transform}} or {{a|Imposter}}.

{{m|Role Play}} fails if the target has Wonder Guard, but not if the user does. {{m|Skill Swap}} also fails if either Pokémon has Wonder Guard. The ability cannot be copied by {{a|Power of Alchemy}} or {{a|Receiver}}. {{a|Wandering Spirit}} will not swap Abilities with Wonder Guard.

A {{type|Flying}} Pokemon with Wonder Guard will not take damage during [[strong winds]] if the move is not super effective against the Pokémon's other type. A [[typeless]] Pokémon with Wonder Guard (such as a pure {{type|Fire}} Pokémon that used {{m|Burn Up}}) is immune to damaging moves of all types.

As with cases involving type immunity, if the active Pokémon of an [[Non-player character|NPC trainer]] has no moves that can bypass the player's Wonder Guard, they will switch to a Pokémon that has at least one move that can, if they have one.

====Generation III and IV====
[[Typeless]] damage is not blocked by Wonder Guard. Due to dealing typeless damage in these games, {{m|Beat Up}}, {{m|Future Sight}}, and {{m|Doom Desire}} bypass Wonder Guard. Additionally, {{m|Weather Ball}} used during [[shadowy aura]] deals typeless damage, so bypasses Wonder Guard.

The text for Wonder Guard will supersede type immunity, such as a {{type|Normal}} attack on a Ghost-type.

[[Shadow move]]s bypass Wonder Guard, regardless of whether the move is considered super effective or not.

Due to [[List of battle glitches in Generation IV#Fire Fang Wonder Guard glitch|a glitch]], {{m|Fire Fang}} is able to hit through Wonder Guard, even if the target does not have a weakness to {{type|Fire}} moves.

====Generation V onwards====
Typeless damage is now blocked by Wonder Guard, except from {{m|Struggle}}. Fire Fang also no longer bypasses Wonder Guard.

Type immunity now supersedes the activation of Wonder Guard.

===Outside of battle===
Wonder Guard has no effect outside of battle.

==Pokémon with Wonder Guard==

|}

==In other games==
==={{g|Rumble World}}===

In Pokémon Rumble World, {{p|Shedinja}} has the Wonder Guard ability, randomly granting it full immunity to moves which are not [[super effective]].

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
Wonder Guard makes the Pokémon immune to damaging moves with a type which are not [[super effective]]. It does not prevent any indirect damage, such as from {{status|burn}}, [[weather]] and [[recoil]]. It also does not protect the Pokémon against other typeless damage such as from [[Dungeon tile|traps]], [[throwing item]]s, or [[wand]]s.

Damage taken from [[regular attack]]s is reduced to 1, unless the attacker has the [[Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)#Set Damage|Set Damage]] status. In {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}, the regular attack has no effect against Wonder Guard.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
* In ''[[PS317|Sneaky Like Shedinja]]'', [[Greta]]'s {{p|Shedinja}} was mentioned to have Wonder Guard as its Ability.
* {{adv|Crystal}}'s Shedinja is revealed to have Wonder Guard as its Ability.

==Trivia==
* Prior to the introduction of the {{t|Fairy}}-type in [[Generation VI]], the type combination of {{2t|Dark|Ghost}} had no weaknesses. When combined with Wonder Guard, this prevents all direct damage.
** This characteristic was showcased in-game with the [[Pokéstar Studios]] [[Pokéstar Studios opponents|opponent]] Majin, requiring the player to deal indirect damage or change Majin's Ability or type to defeat it.
* There are several ways to make a Pokémon with Wonder Guard have no weaknesses:
** If a pure {{type|Electric}} or {{2t|Poison|Dark}}-type Pokémon has Wonder Guard (e.g. Shedinja using {{m|Reflect Type}} or {{m|Entrainment}} via {{m|Mimic}} on a pure Electric-type or Poison/Dark-type Pokémon) and holds an [[Air Balloon]], it becomes immune to all 18 types. However, it can still be hit by {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, and if the Pokémon becomes [[grounded]] it can be hit by any {{type|Ground}} move.
** If a pure {{type|Fire}} Pokémon that used {{m|Burn Up}} to become typeless has Wonder Guard (e.g. by Shedinja using {{m|Entrainment}} via {{m|Mimic}} on that Pokémon), Wonder Guard blocks all damage moves due to typeless Pokémon having no weaknesses.
* Wonder Guard is the only thing that can make a Pokémon immune to {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Rock}}, {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Dark}}, or {{type|Fairy}} moves.

'''Alain''' (Japanese: '''アラン''' ''Alan'') is a recurring character in {{aniseries|PTS}}. He is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] seeking to defeat all [[Mega Evolution|Mega-Evolved]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} using [[Alain's Charizard|his Mega Charizard X]]. He initially appears as the main character of the [[Mega Evolution Specials]] side-series, working under the instruction of [[Lysandre]] to collect Mega Evolution energy and unknowingly serving as an informal member of [[Team Flare]] in the process. He later appears in the [[S19|XY&Z arc]] of {{aniseries|XY}} as a [[rival]] to {{Ash}}.

In {{aniseries|JN}}, he was revealed to have become one of the eight best Trainers in the {{pkmn|world}} within the [[World Coronation Series]]. Alain was also revealed to have become a [[Mega Stone]] researcher.

==In animation==
===History===
{{spoilers}}
====Pre-series====
[[File:Alain Sycamore Assistant.png|thumb|left|250px|Alain as Sycamore's assistant]]
In the past, Alain was {{an|Professor Sycamore}}'s [[Professor's assistant|assistant]], and it was Sycamore who initially inspired him to begin seeking [[Mega Stone]]s in order to solve the mysteries of Mega Evolution. At this time, Alain already owned a {{TP|Alain|Charmander}}. Some time after leaving Professor Sycamore's laboratory, Charmander evolved. After reporting to Professor Sycamore, he came to a nearby ruin in search of [[Ampharosite]], but discovered that the raw Mega Stone had been taken by [[Lysandre]]. Alain battled Lysandre for ownership of the stone, but his {{p|Charmeleon}} was soundly defeated by [[Lysandre's Pyroar]].

Alain was then invited to [[Lysandre Labs]], where Lysandre revealed his intention to harness the energy Pokémon produce when they Mega Evolve, for peaceful purposes. He also claimed that if Professor Sycamore were to publish the secrets of Mega Evolution, mankind would find a way to use those secrets to nefarious ends, and said that he would not allow the Professor's name to be tarnished. Asking if Alain would assist him, Lysandre revealed a metal attaché case with a [[Mega Ring]] and [[Charizardite X]]. Believing he could protect the Professor this way, Alain accepted Lysandre's proposal.

====[[Mega Evolution Specials]]====
Some time prior to ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', Charmeleon evolved into a {{p|Charizard}}. Alain was first seen in ''Mega Evolution Special I'' battling a Trainer named [[Astrid]], and defeated her Mega {{p|Absol}}. The battle was secretly watched by [[Mairin]], a beginning Trainer who was sent out on a journey by Professor Sycamore. Mairin was so impressed with his strength that she began following him. From Mairin, Alain learned of [[Ash Ketchum|a Trainer]] who [[XY002|lept off of Prism Tower to save a Pokémon]]. Next, Alain received a call on his [[Holo Caster]] from [[Lysandre|a mysterious person]], who directed him to a location with ruins to retrieve a Mega Stone. After getting the Mega Stone, Alain was confronted by a Trainer named [[Remo]] who was also looking for the Mega Stone. Remo challenged him with a Mega {{p|Garchomp}}, but Alain won the battle and kept the Mega Stone.

Afterwards, he helped Mairin {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{p|Flabébé}}. He then traveled with her to a restaurant where [[Kalos]] [[Elite Four]] member [[Siebold]] was working as a chef and challenged him to a battle. Charizard put up a good fight against Siebold's {{p|Blastoise}}, but when Blastoise Mega Evolved, it overwhelmed Charizard using a {{a|Mega Launcher}}-boosted {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. Accepting his defeat, Alain continued his journey to battle more Mega Evolved Pokémon and complete more assignments from Lysandre, now with Mairin as a traveling partner.

[[File:Alain and Mairin.png|thumb|250px|Alain and Mairin]]
In ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', he traveled to [[Hoenn]] with Mairin, where he met {{an|Steven Stone|Steven}}. Noticing each other's [[Key Stone]]s, the two Trainers recognized each other as Trainers with Mega Pokémon. Accepting Alain's challenge, Steven and his {{Shiny}} Mega {{TP|Steven|Metagross}} fought a fierce battle with Charizard before the battle was interrupted by Lysandre.

Deciding to cooperate with the Hoenn {{pkmn|Champion}}, Alain and his company traveled to their destination, a small temple with two pillars in the center. When Alain and Steven held their Key Stones to the monument, a staircase of light appeared to lead them further within the ancient ruin. There, they discovered a similar mechanism that summoned a glowing [[Giant Rock]] from underneath the ruin. After Lysandre and his research team began analyzing the giant stone, a {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Rayquaza}} appeared from the sky, Mega Evolved into Mega Rayquaza, and started wreaking havoc on the surrounding area. Alain, Steven, and their Mega Pokémon partners tried to fend off the [[Legendary Pokémon]], but were overwhelmed. After an attack from Rayquaza's {{m|Draco Meteor}}, the Giant Rock was revealed to have disappeared, causing Rayquaza to leave. Alain, Mairin and Steven then proceeded to [[Rustboro City]] on Lysandre's orders as energy waves, believed to be the Giant Rock's, were detected near the city's coast.

In ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', after landing at [[Devon Corporation]] via helicopter with Mairin, Alain received confirmation from Steven and Lysandre that [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Groudon}} and Primal {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Kyogre}} were set to battle each other near Rustboro City to claim the Giant Rock's energy, putting the entire world at risk. Alain and Steven volunteered to fly to the point where the super-ancient Pokémon would meet to analyze the situation. Despite Mairin's attempts to make Alain stay, he refused, saying he had to keep his promise to Lysandre to become the strongest. As Mairin continued to press him, Alain began to lash out at her, saying she knew nothing about his goals. After calming down, Alain walked away from Mairin, telling her to go back to Kalos.

On Steven's aircraft, Alain and the Champion approached a large energy reading that Devon Corp. staff and Lysandre confirm to be the Giant Rock. The two then witnessed Primal Kyogre surface, who began engaging Primal Groudon. After the Primal Pokémon exchanged blows, Alain received private orders from Lysandre to protect the Giant Rock at all costs until it fully materialized. Alain then opened the aircraft's door and sent out Charizard, and triggered its Mega Evolution. Following Alain's lead, Steven and Metagross followed suit, volunteering to attack Kyogre. While Charizard was initially able to stop Groudon from reaching the Giant Rock, it was eventually struck by {{m|Precipice Blades}}, causing it to fall from the sky to a glacier created by Kyogre's {{m|Ice Beam}}.

[[File:Alain anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Alain excited during a battle]]
Alain immediately rappelled from the aircraft onto the glacier, and rushed to Charizard's side, digging it out from chunks of ice. Noticing its tail flame dying, Alain recalled Charizard to rest. Alain was then blown back from an explosion caused by Groudon and Kyogre's battle. Thanks to Steven's order to descend the aircraft, Mairin and [[Chespie]], who had stowed away, were able to exit the aircraft's rear and help Alain. As Groudon's {{m|Solar Beam}} caused debris to fly towards the three, Steven's Metagross dove in front to guard the three with {{m|Protect}}. While Metagross continued to fend off Groudon and Kyogre, Mairin brought an unconscious Alain to shelter. Alain then woke up to witness Mega Rayquaza return and single-handedly defeat Groudon and Kyogre. A submarine sent by Lysandre then surfaced and proceeded to take in the Giant Rock by blinding Rayquaza with flash missiles. Lysandre deemed the mission a success, and Rayquaza retreated. With the skies cleared, Alain approached Mairin and thanked her.

However, back at the Devon Corporation headquarters, Mairin was told by Steven that Alain returned to Kalos without her, as staying with him would put her in danger. Alain was shown then to be back at Lysandre Labs, where Lysandre thanked him for his help. While Lysandre told Alain he had earned a rest, Alain insisted on continuing his training with Charizard, recalling how they were defeated by the super-ancient Pokémon of Hoenn. He was last seen with Charizard, battling a nameless Trainer and his Mega {{p|Tyranitar}} under Lysandre's supervision.

In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', Alain fought ten Trainers with Mega Evolved Pokémon in a row under the condition that he had to return his Mega Stone and Mega Ring to Lysandre had he lost to one of the Trainers. Despite not being able to rest between battles, Alain was able to defeat the first nine Trainers. During the middle of the challenge, he was reunited with Mairin again, but he still refused to let her travel with him. As she continued to press him, Alain lashed out at Mairin, telling her he couldn't get stronger with her around, greatly upsetting her. After an upset Mairin had walked away and told Chespie she wanted to be alone, Chespie walked in on an experiment which subsequently overloaded, exposing Chespie to near-fatal levels of the energy produced as part of the experiment and causing it to fall into a coma.

Later, Alain fought [[Malva]] of the Elite Four as the final Trainer. Alain pitted his Charizard against Malva's Mega {{p|Houndoom}} and after a hard-fought battle, he was able to defeat her. After the battle, he went to see Mairin from behind a corner. Upon finding out about Chespie and hearing a broken, sobbing Mairin begging Lysandre to assure her that Chespie would wake up, he started to blame himself. Believing that the Mega Evolution system would restore Chespie's health, Alain set out to complete it in order to bring back the cheerful Mairin he knew. After leaving, a Trainer with a Mega {{p|Banette}} stopped him and they had a battle.

===={{aniseries|XY}}====
Alain made his animated series debut during a flashback in ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]'', where he was revealed to have found a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Gible}} that eventually became Professor Sycamore's partner Pokémon, Garchomp.

Alain made his physical animated series debut in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'', where he was briefly seen walking past Ash and {{ashfr}}.
[[File:Ash and Alain.png|thumb|250px|Alain and Ash]]
In ''[[XY106|A Meeting of Two Journeys!]]'', while passing by Ash's battle with [[Sawyer]], Alain took notice of [[Ash's Greninja]]'s [[Bond Phenomenon|unique transformation]] and was intrigued by it. The next day, he saved [[Ash's Pikachu]] from {{TRT}} and introduced himself to Ash and his friends. He then requested to battle Ash's Greninja, to which Ash agreed. Alain held the upper hand against Ash and Greninja with his Charizard, which he eventually Mega Evolved as he wanted to draw out Greninja's full power. Once Greninja did transform, Alain was surprised to discover it wasn't a Mega Evolution, as his Mega Ring didn't respond. Ash-Greninja managed to battle Charizard on more even grounds, but was still defeated. Afterwards, Alain and Ash introduced themselves, just before he thanked Ash for the battle and left.
[[File:Team Flare battling Z2.png|thumb|250px|left|Alain and Charizard helping Team Flare capture Z2]]
In ''[[XY107|An Explosive Operation!]]'', he was sent by Lysandre to help [[Aliana]] and [[Mable]] in their mission to capture [[Z2]] when they were having a hard time. Alain and Charizard were an even match for the Zygarde and distracted it long enough for [[Team Flare]] to use their specialized weapons. After they captured Z2, Aliana and Mable recognized him as working for Lysandre.

In ''[[XY116|The Synchronicity Test!]]'', Alain noticed Ash and {{an|Clemont}} battling, during his visit to the [[Pokémon Center]]. After reuniting with the group, he had a rematch against Ash. First, he battled his {{AP|Noivern}}, using his newly revealed {{P|Metang}}. After a close battle, Alain's Metang won after a decisive clash between its {{m|Metal Claw}} and Noivern's {{m|Acrobatics}}. Afterwards, Alain agreed for him and Charizard to have a rematch against Ash's Greninja. At first, the battle played out very similar to their previous one, but after Charizard Mega Evolved, Greninja showed its improvement by started getting a few hits in. When Charizard retaliated, Greninja transformed into Ash-Greninja and proved itself Charizard's equal, making Alain feel excited to face such a strong opponent. In the closing stages of the battle, Greninja managed to land a power {{m|Cut}} attack which smashed Charizard onto the ground, to Alain's surprise.

Before the battle could be finished, however, Ash collapsed from exhaustion, much to Alain's concern. Alain remained with the group until Ash recovered, after which he once more thanked Ash for a good battle. He was then asked by Ash if he was planning on entering the [[Kalos League]], and when he said that he was not, Ash questioned as to why, since there would be plenty of strong opponents to battle against. To this, Alain commented that it would certainly be interesting, and then departed. Later on, Alain had a brief video chat with a {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}} and was glad to see that Mairin was doing fine. He would afterwards reminisce on his time working with Sycamore alongside Charizard before reiterating his desire to get stronger and protect those that he cares most for.

The conversation with Ash had apparently inspired Alain to enter the Kalos League and collect [[Badge]]s. He was seen battling for his final Kalos Badge in the introduction to ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'', where he was shown battling {{an|Korrina}}'s {{TP|Korrina|Mega Lucario|Lucario}} with his Mega Charizard X. The result of that battle was shown at the end of ''[[XY123|A Diamond in the Rough!]]'', where he defeated her and earned himself the {{badge|Rumble}}, fulfilling his requirement for entry into the Kalos League. When asked by Korrina if he was going to enter the League, he confirmed, saying that he was planning on entering in order to battle Ash, whom he did not mention by name to her.

[[File:Alain Lumiose Conference.png|thumb|250px|Alain in the Lumiose Conference]]
In ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', Alain entered the [[Lumiose Conference]]. During the opening ceremony, Alain reunited with Sycamore, who was hosting the tournament together with [[Diantha]], but Alain refused to talk with his former mentor. He also met up with Ash, and explained that he entered the tournament to battle him again and told him to keep advancing. The next day, he battled {{an|Trevor}}, with both Trainers using their Mega Charizard. Alain, however, easily won, defeating all three of Trevor's Pokémon without being seriously pressured in battle, and advanced to the second round.

In [[XY126|the next episode]], it was revealed that Alain had won his second round, third round, and quarterfinal matches, qualifying him for the semi-finals. Following the conclusion of the fourth quarterfinal battle between [[Sawyer]] and {{an|Tierno}}, it was revealed he would once again face Remo for a spot in the finals. His rematch with Remo was seen in [[XY127|the following episode]]. Using only his Charizard and his {{p|Metagross}}, he was able to easily defeat Remo and qualify for the finals. According to Clemont, Alain had up until this point only used these two Pokémon in the entire tournament. Alain had a cold, serious demeanor throughout the battle, which worried Professor Sycamore. Afterwards, Alain observed the battle between Ash and Sawyer and continued to do so in the [[XY128|following episode]], even showing a smile after Ash was named as the victor of the battle.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', he was seen training for his upcoming battle against Ash with his Charizard, which Malva interrupted. She expressed her congratulations at Alain being able to make it to the finals so easily, adding that winning in the finals should be easy for someone like him. Alain replied by telling her to go away so that he could focus on training for his match. Malva shrugged off his comment, saying that since Alain's goal was to become the strongest, entering and winning the Kalos League was common sense. Alain replied by telling her that being the strongest didn't matter to him for his battle, saying that he just wanted to battle Ash. Malva commented that she thought Ash must be happy that Alain was being so mindful about him, with Alain asking what she was insinuating, adding that he was suspicious about her "true colors". Malva merely commented on how Alain was nearly finished gathering the remaining amount of Mega Evolution energy, asking him what he would do after Chespie had recovered, to which Alain replied that it was none of her business.

Later that night, he was seen training with Charizard, expressing on how eager he was to battle Ash and how close they were to meeting the quota for the needed Mega Evolution energy. He was then approached by Professor Sycamore, who despite the awkwardness of their meeting, expressed that there were many things that he had wished to talk about with Alain, but that it was hard for him to remain collected while doing so. Alain questioned if Sycamore was mad at him for not coming back to the lab, which Sycamore denied, saying that he had heard about Alain's work with Lysandre. Alain admitted that he didn't want to expose his former mentor to any possible danger, telling the Professor about his goal to gather the power produced by Mega Evolution, but that there were also many people who would seek to twist that power for evil purposes, with Sycamore asking Alain if he backed away from him for his own safety, to which Alain confirmed. Alain told his former mentor that he couldn't turn back, not while there were even more things that he had lost compared to when he first started his journey, and until he could get those lost things back, he said that he could only continue to become even more powerful. Sycamore, smiling in understanding, told his former assistant to do as he wished. The next day, Alain was seen entering the battlefield for his final battle with Ash.

In ''[[XY130|Finals Not for the Faint-Hearted!]]'' and ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Alain faced Ash in the final round of the Lumiose Conference for a [[Full Battle]]. Alain and Ash started a back and forth battle that eventually came down to Alain's Charizard against Ash's Greninja. Charizard Mega Evolved and Greninja transformed into Ash-Greninja, but in the end, Charizard emerged victorious, making Alain the winner of the Lumiose Conference. During the closing ceremony, after Diantha had handed Alain the championship trophy, the Kalos League stadium was attacked by massive roots unleashed by Z2, which Team Flare had placed under their control.

In [[XY132|the following episode]], he and Ash made their way through the root-infested Kalos League stadium in order to find Mairin. After meeting with {{an|Serena}}, Clemont, and {{an|Bonnie}} outside, and seeing Z2 on top of [[Prism Tower]], he and Ash went to find Mairin. After finding her, the two were ambushed by [[Celosia]] and some Team Flare Grunts, who informed Alain that Lysandre had ordered Ash to be captured and brought to him. Despite Ash trying to pull him away, Alain resisted, and allowed Team Flare to capture an unconscious Ash, along with all of his Pokémon. Alain was then transported via helicopter to Prism Tower, where he angrily questioned [[Xerosic]] as to why Team Flare needed Ash. He then went to the top of the tower, where he asked Lysandre what he was doing, and why he was destroying Kalos if he wanted to protect it. Lysandre revealed his true goal of returning Kalos to a beautiful state, and his belief that in order to do so, Kalos needed to be destroyed and rebuilt from scratch. Alain was then seen visibly frustrated and shocked when he witnessed Ash and all of his Pokémon bound in midair. When Ash and Pikachu regained consciousness he made no movement when Ash asked him what was going on.

[[File:Ash and Alain vs Lysandre.png|thumb|250px|left|Alain and Ash preparing to battle Lysandre]]
Upon hearing about Lysandre's true motivation for gathering Mega Evolution energy in [[XY133|the next episode]], Alain collapsed in anger and frustration towards himself for being used by Lysandre for his scheme, no longer knowing what he had been fighting for all that time. He then watched in horror as Lysandre attempted to control Ash and Greninja with Mega Evolution Energy so he could be in control of their [[Bond Phenomenon]] power. Luckily, the two were able to trigger the transformation on their own and break free of their confinement. Alain then grabbed Ash when he was about to collapse from using his energy, as well as thanking him for the words he said that brought him into his senses. He then turned against Lysandre and freed Ash's other Pokémon. The two then began a battle against Lysandre's Pyroar and Mega {{p|Gyarados}}, and thanks to the efforts of [[Ash's Hawlucha]], Noivern, and Pikachu, they were able to knock out Pyroar.

[[XY134|Continuing their battle]], Lysandre's Mega Gyarados proved unexpectedly powerful as it was able to defeat all of Ash's Pokémon except for his Pikachu and Greninja. Alain and Ash were eventually assisted by Malva. Alongside Malva, Alain was impressed by the dedication and wisdom Ash displayed when he lectured Lysandre on why the current world is worth fighting for. The three were finally able to defeat Lysandre in [[XY135|the next episode]], but left in shock when Lysandre appeared to commit suicide by stepping off Prism Tower. After learning the Giant Rock had absorbed Chespie and was heading to [[Anistar City]]'s {{DL|Anistar City|Sundial}}, Alain and company met up with Clemont, Bonnie, and [[Meyer|Blaziken Mask]] and headed towards the Giant Rock by helicopter. Upon reaching the creature, Alain, along with everyone else, began fighting the creature and were eventually aided by Diantha and the [[Gym Leader]]s of Kalos as well.

In [[XY136|the following episode]], Alain and Ash were able to reach the Giant Rock's core, where Alain helped rescue Chespie, taking out the creature. After Lysandre returned and controlled the Giant Rock, Alain used his Charizard to continue fighting and was able to destroy Lysandre's control device, allowing [[Squishy]] and Z2 to destroy the Giant Rock and stop Lysandre's wicked plan. Relieved to see that Chespie finally awoke from its coma, Alain apologized to Mairin for all he did and asked for her forgiveness, but Mairin told him that as long as he was safe, then everything was alright.

He reappeared in ''[[XY137|Battling With a Clean Slate!]]'', where Mairin threw a party for his return at Professor Sycamore's lab. He listened as Ash revealed his intent to return home to [[Pallet Town]], later admitting to Ash that he was not sure of what he wanted to do now that everything he wanted to do had been accomplished. Feeling depressed and unsure, Alain said that despite not knowing Lysandre's plot, he still felt that he needed to atone for his mistakes. Ash suggested that they have another battle someday, as battling always helped him to find the answers to questions that he had. Although Alain was hesitant since Ash had already done so much for him, he agreed noting to himself that in every way that was important Ash was his superior.

However, their conversation was interrupted when Team Rocket started attacking the lab in order to steal Pikachu. Using Charizard and Greninja, Ash and Alain successfully rescued Pikachu, and then sent Team Rocket blasting off with Serena and Clemont's assistance. Later on, he and the others received medals from Sycamore for their efforts against Team Flare, before posing for a group photograph and watching the reopening of Prism Tower that night. Professor Sycamore also asked Alain if he would like to return to his post as research assistant and Alain happily agreed. Alain reappeared in [[XY138|the next episode]], where he and Mairin came to watch Serena's performance. He was hesitant when Mairin and Chespie dragged him to dance with her, but with Professor Sycamore's encouragement, he eventually agreed, although still feeling awkward.

Alain made one more appearance in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]'', where he, Mairin, and Professor Sycamore visited Ash and his friends before they would leave. During their conversation, Alain revealed that he and Mairin were now going to journey throughout Kalos to hunt down Key Stones and Mega Stones, due to the Anistar Sundial now providing locations to Mega Stones throughout the region. He also informed Ash that he had discarded his Mega Stone and Key Stone because he received them from Lysandre, and that he wanted to find them on his own and start from zero just like Ash. Alain and Ash then said goodbye to each other and promised to battle again one day. Alain was later seen talking with Sycamore via a video call alongside Mairin in [[Frost Cavern]], giving him an update on their journey.

===={{aniseries|JN}}====
[[File:Alain and Leon.png|thumb|250px|Leon and Alain]]
Alain made a cameo appearance in a flashback of the [[Lumiose Conference]] in ''[[JN108|Catching the Aura of Fate!]]''.

In ''[[JN109|Aim For The Eight!]]'', Alain was revealed to be in the Master Class of the [[World Coronation Series]], being the only non-Champion member of the season's final Masters Eight.

In ''[[JN115|Curtain Up! Fight the Fights!]]'', Alain participated in the [[Masters Eight Tournament]], along with the rest of the Masters Eight, reuniting with Ash, Diantha, and Steven, and meeting {{an|Iris}} and the rest of the regional Champions. His opponent was chosen to be {{an|Leon}}. Despite putting in his best efforts, Alain was eventually defeated by the [[Galar]] Champion and his {{TP|Leon|Charizard}}, making him the first Trainer to be eliminated from the tournament. In the [[JN116|following]] [[JN117|episodes]], Alain watched the rest of the quarterfinal matches with the other Masters Eight. In ''[[JN118|Battling as Hard as Stone!]]'', after Ash had emerged victorious against Steven, Alain met [[Goh]] and wished Ash good luck for the remainder of the competition before returning to Kalos.

In ''[[JN129|A Flood of Torrential Gains!]]'', Alain watched Ash's match against Leon alongside Charizard, Mairin, and Professor Sycamore.

===Character===
Alain is shown to usually be focused on his goals, yet often exhibits aloof behavior and can wander off in thought. He at first seems to push others away from him, but he helped Mairin capture Flabébé with hints on strategy. He does, however, have a close bond with his Charizard, and has become accustomed to Mairin's companionship as shown in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]''. Alain doggedly pursues his goal of becoming the strongest, often ignoring the concern of others and inadvertently causing distress and further concern among those that care most for him.

[[File:Alain anger XYS04.png|thumb|left|250px|Alain after learning of Chespie's coma]]
Alain has a tendency to push away the people he wants to protect. During his time working at Professor Sycamore's lab, Alain was much more cheerful than he is in the present. While he has distanced himself from Professor Sycamore, it is clear he is still concerned about his safety, something that he fully admitted to his former mentor while at the Kalos League.

His character took a darker turn at the end of ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''. Blaming himself for Chespie's falling into a comatose state because of his pushing Mairin away, he became disgusted with himself and began obsessively pursuing the completion of Lysandre's Mega Evolution energy system. His goal thus became to gain strength and complete the system in order to heal Chespie and help Mairin smile again. To meet this end, he worked with Mable and Aliana in their mission to capture Z2, succeeding in distracting Z2 long enough for the Team Flare Scientists to weaken it.

Alain is a good sport, and is shown to take his losses well. When he wins battles, he likewise congratulates his opponents on putting up a good fight, which is how he befriends Ash. When he loses, he doesn't let it bother him, instead devoting himself to train even harder. He greatly enjoys a challenge, becoming visibly excited when he and Charizard were pushed into a corner in their second battle with Ash-Greninja. This excitement and desire to once again battle against Ash in a competitive fashion similar to their previous battles would drive him to quickly attain enough badges to compete in the [[Lumiose Conference]], something that he admitted to Korrina following his victory over her at the Shalour Gym.

[[File:Alain Mega Ring.png|thumb|250px|Alain's first Mega Ring]]
By the time of the Kalos League, however, Alain's attitude had become more serious and cold, as the only thing he really cared about was proving that he was the strongest Trainer. Although showing brief glimpses of amusement in his battle with Trevor, after thoroughly defeating him, he would resume with his cold and serious demeanor. Likewise, when Remo failed to give him a real challenge, Alain just expressed indifference to the battle and, as in his battle with Trevor, left the arena without congratulating or praising his opponents as he would have in the past, further enforcing how obsessed he had become with gaining strength and battling fiercely competitive battles. However, despite this darker persona, Alain still showed signs of his old self when talking with Charizard about how he was genuinely looking forward to his battle with Ash in the finals. He would afterwards open up to Professor Sycamore and explain his motivations, reaffirming his desire to become stronger in order to protect his friends or anyone he is closest to in the process.

During his battle with Ash, Alain admitted to himself that Ash's excited attitude and eagerness to enjoy battles are what made him such a great opponent, and that battling Ash made him truly enjoy the battles themselves, causing him to lose track of time.

When Team Flare attacked Lumiose City and revealed their true motives, Alain felt betrayed by them and began to feel a great sense of guilt in him. After Lysandre proclaimed the dawn of his new world to him, Alain collapsed in frustration and anger. These feelings along with Ash helping him see the truth that would lead him to turn against Team Flare and join Ash. After Team Flare was defeated, Alain began to feel despondent, since not only did he feel that he was indirectly responsible for what Lysandre was able to do to Kalos, but he did not know what he wanted to do now that everyone was safe. Thanks to Ash, Alain began to cheer up, and accepted Professor Sycamore's offer to resume their research on Mega Evolution.

[[File:Alain Mega Ring 2.png|thumb|left|250px|Alain's current Mega Ring]]
When Alain first met Mairin, he didn't like the fact that she kept following him, but he eventually gave in and reluctantly let her travel with him. Although he wasn't excited to have Mairin around at first, he grew to like having her around, and she became his best friend. Alain would do anything to protect her, even when he purposely tried to leave her behind to keep her from his dangerous mission of engaging Primal Groudon and Kyogre, as shown in ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]''. After failing the mission, he returned to Kalos alone, leaving Mairin behind as he didn't want to endanger her any further through his missions.

Alain views Ash not only as a rival, but as a close friend, and he values his friendship with him just like he does for Mairin. However, their relationship nearly took a turn for the worst when he was forced to let Team Flare take Ash and his Pokémon captive. Because of his betrayal, Alain was too ashamed to even talk to him. However, he eventually realized the error of his ways after hearing Ash explain that he doesn't care about what he has done in the past or the present. Also, it seems that he takes some inspiration from Ash, since he competed in the Kalos League because of him. Also, Ash helped him understand what was wrong with his ways, and helped him start over from zero by going on a new journey with Mairin to find both a [[Key Stone]] and [[Mega Stone]] to call his own.

===Pokémon===
The only permanent member of Alain's team is {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}. When Charizard is not available for battle, Alain avoids participating in battles against other Trainers. However, he is seen using a few other Pokémon in his animated series appearances. During his appearance in {{aniseries|JN}}, it is revealed that Alain has become a [[Mega Stone]] researcher, which may indicate that other Pokémon on his team may also have access to [[Mega Evolution]].

This listing is of Alain's known {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in {{aniseries|PTS}}:

Powerhouse Pokémon

[[File:Gen VII Powerhouse Pokémon Artwork.png|thumb|300px|All Powerhouse Pokémon and their pre-evolved forms from [[Generation I|Generations I]] to [[Generation VII|VII]] (artwork from the Late Bloomers collection)]]
'''Powerhouse Pokémon''', also referred to unofficially by fans as '''pseudo-legendary Pokémon''', are a group of powerful and fully evolved {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Confirmed members of this group all share the following attributes:
*The Pokémon is the final stage of a three-stage [[evolution]]ary line.
*The Pokémon has a [[base stats|base stat]] total of exactly {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 600|600}} (before [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]]).
*The Pokémon [[level]]s up at a [[Experience#Slow|slow rate]] (requiring 1,250,000 [[Experience|experience points]] to reach level 100).

Powerhouse Pokémon are often more powerful than most other non-{{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]] due to their high base stats. Because of their slow leveling rates and their relatively high [[List of Pokémon that evolve at or above a certain level|evolutionary levels]], they tend to be difficult to raise. The majority of them are also {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.

==Terminology==
The unofficial term "pseudo-legendary Pokémon" or "pseudo-legendaries" has historically been used by fans to describe the group due to their high base stats rivaling that of Legendary Pokémon. The term Powerhouse Pokémon was first used for a {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store}} merchandise collection of the same name.<ref>[https://www.pokemoncenter.com/search/powerhouse Search results for Powerhouse Pokémon | Pokémon Center Official Site]</ref> This term would later be used outside of this merchandise line as the name of a [[Poké Portal News/2024#August 23 to September 1, 2024 2|Poké Portal News event]] called "''Challenge Powerhouse Pokémon!''" (Japanese: '''挑もう！強力なポケモンたち''' ''Take On Powerful Pokémon!''), which featured a 7★ [[Tera Raid Battle]] against a {{p|Dragonite}}, as well as several [[mass outbreak]]s of pre-Evolutions of Powerhouse Pokémon.<ref>[https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/en/page/242.html Prepare to Challenge Powerhouse Pokémon!]</ref> While previous uses were typically in {{wp|title case}} making the proper capitalization of the group ambiguous, subsequent uses of the term in promotional news posts beginning with the Pokémon Center × [[OMOCAT]] merchandise line would consistently capitalize the word "powerhouse".<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/powerful-pokemon-prevail-in-this-pokemon-center-omocat-collaboration Powerful Pokémon Prevail in this Pokémon Center × OMOCAT Collaboration] - "''Pokémon Center has teamed up with Los Angeles–based indie brand OMOCAT to create a line of goods featuring Powerhouse Pokémon like Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Garchomp, Goodra, and Baxcalibur.''"</ref><ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/pokemon-center-2025-holiday-exclusives-now-available Pokémon Center 2025 Holiday Exclusives Now Available] - "''This luxurious locomotive features a plethora of Pokémon, from Pikachu, Eevee, and Snorlax, to Powerhouse Pokémon like Metagross, Garchomp, and Goodra—plus the first partner Pokémon from Paldea!''"</ref>

In Japanese, there is no consistent term used for Powerhouse Pokémon. The "[https://www.facebook.com/Pokemon.official.Singapore/posts/2430759250584323 Late Bloomers]" (Japanese: '''大器晩成''' ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20191208020557/https://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2019/10/191011_p02.html Taiki-Bansei]'') merchandise line features Powerhouse Pokémon prominently, though the collection also includes their pre-Evolutions, which are generally excluded from the group. The Japanese version of the "''Challenge Powerhouse Pokémon!''" Poké Portal News post uses both 強力なポケモンたち (''Powerful Pokémon'') and 成長すると強力になるポケモン (''Pokémon that become stronger as they grow'') in its place.<ref>[https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/ja/page/242.html 【予告】サマーイベント第4弾！挑もう！強力なポケモンたち]</ref> Japanese fan communities, especially in the competitive scene, tend to use the unofficial term {{ja|600族|'''600{{ruby|族|ぞく}}''' ''600 club''}}, referring to all Pokémon that have a base stat total of 600 that are not Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, or Mega Evolutions. This classification includes all Powerhouse Pokémon, but it also includes {{p|Archaludon}}, which is excluded from merchandise featuring Powerhouse Pokémon.

==List of Powerhouse Pokémon==
There are ten Pokémon considered to be Powerhouse Pokémon, with every [[generation]] introducing at least one. The following shows the Powerhouse Pokémon by the generation of their introduction, as well as their [[type]]s and the Pokémon they evolve from.

List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number

2026-07-22T17:11:52Z

Meeper12346: pseudo-legendary -> Powerhouse Pokémon

[[File:Sinnoh Pokédex Icon VIII.png|right]]{{shortcut|1|Sdex}}
[[File:DP Pokédex.png|thumb|160px|right|[[Sinnoh]] region's Pokédex]]
[[File:Pt Pokédex.png|thumb|160px|right|[[Sinnoh]] region's Pokédex [[Pokémon Platinum Version|(Platinum)]]]]
This is a list of Pokémon in the order dictated by the [[Sinnoh]] [[regional Pokédex]], meaning that the [[Sinnoh first partner Pokémon|first partner Pokémon from Sinnoh]] will appear first, followed by other Pokémon that live in the Sinnoh region.

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and their remakes {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the Sinnoh Pokédex contains 151 Pokémon, though only 150 are required to be seen to complete the Pokédex ({{p|Manaphy}} is not required). The Sinnoh Pokédex also appears as one of the [[Pokédex (HOME)#Regional Pokédexes|regional Pokédexes]] in the mobile version of [[Pokémon HOME]], where it can only be filled with Pokémon that [[Game of origin|originate]] from Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl; this version of the Pokédex has only 150 Pokémon, as Manaphy is excluded.

In {{game|Platinum}}, the Sinnoh Pokédex contains 210 Pokémon; the 59 additional Pokémon are added at the end of the original version's order, so no Pokémon have their Sinnoh Pokédex numbers changed between versions. All 210 Pokémon are required to be seen to complete this version of the Pokédex (including Manaphy). The Platinum expansion of the Sinnoh Pokédex is also the version used in [[Pokémon Bank]], where it appears as one of the selectable regional Pokédex orders that can be viewed in the Pokédex.

==Changes between versions==
==={{game|Platinum}}===
Only in Pokémon Platinum, the Pokédex was expanded to have 210 entries, with the new additions added to the end of the Pokédex.

==={{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}===
In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the Sinnoh Pokédex is the same as in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, removing the Pokémon Platinum expansion.

In addition, with the introduction of the {{t|Fairy}} type in [[Generation VI]], {{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Marill}}, and {{p|Azumarill}} had their types changed. The Clefairy family was changed from pure {{t|Normal}} to pure Fairy while all other Pokèmon had the Fairy type added.

==Absent Generation IV Pokémon==
===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl===
In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, 26 Pokémon introduced in [[Generation IV]] are absent in the Sinnoh Pokédex:

* {{p|Rotom}}
* Some [[List of cross-generational evolutionary lines|cross-generational Evolutions]]: {{p|Gliscor}}, {{p|Probopass}}, {{p|Gallade}}, {{p|Lickilicky}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, {{p|Glaceon}}, {{p|Togekiss}}, {{p|Magnezone}}, {{p|Tangrowth}}, {{p|Yanmega}}, {{p|Rhyperior}}, {{p|Dusknoir}}, {{p|Porygon-Z}}, {{p|Electivire}}, {{p|Magmortar}}, {{p|Mamoswine}}, and {{p|Froslass}}
* Some [[Legendary Pokémon]]: {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Giratina}}, and {{p|Cresselia}}
* Some [[Mythical Pokémon]]: {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Arceus}}.

Most of the cross-generational Evolutions introduced in this generation are among the excluded Pokémon. However, some are present: {{p|Ambipom}}, {{p|Honchkrow}}, {{p|Mismagius}}, {{p|Weavile}}, and {{p|Roserade}}. Every [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in this generation ({{p|Budew}}, {{p|Chingling}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Munchlax}}, and {{p|Mantyke}}) is present in the Sinnoh Pokédex as well.

===Pokémon Platinum===
In Pokémon Platinum, the expanded Sinnoh Pokédex includes {{p|Rotom}}, {{p|Giratina}}, all of the cross-generational Evolutions previously excluded, their full evolutionary lines, and eight other Pokémon introduced in prior generations: {{p|Houndour}}, {{p|Houndoom}}, {{p|Swablu}}, {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Tropius}}, {{p|Scyther}}, {{p|Scizor}}, and {{p|Absol}}.

However, seven Generation IV Pokémon are still excluded from the Sinnoh Pokédex in Pokémon Platinum: {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Regigigas}}, {{p|Cresselia}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Arceus}}.

==In the spin-off games==
===Digital Poké Ball D & P===
In [[Digital Poké Ball D & P]], the Pokédex feature lists Pokémon by the Sinnoh Pokédex order.

==Trivia==
* This is the first regional Pokédex listing to be enlarged.
* This is the only regional Pokédex listing not to include all the new Pokémon introduced in its corresponding generation. The [[List of Pokémon by Hisui Pokédex number|Hisui Pokédex]] does include all [[Generation IV]] Pokémon, however.
* The non-Platinum Sinnoh Pokédex has the same amount of Pokémon as the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]]. It also has the same number of Pokémon not dependant on an external event, as {{p|Mew}} from Kanto and {{p|Manaphy}} from Sinnoh are the only such Pokémon in the respective Pokédex.
* According to the {{Trading Card Game}}, the model of Pokédex in Sinnoh is the {{TCG ID|Diamond & Pearl|Pokédex HANDY910is|111}}.
* The Sinnoh Pokédex was the first regional Pokédex to include ordinary Pokémon (non-Legendary, non-Powerhouse, and non-Mythical) after [[Powerhouse Pokémon]].
** With the Platinum expansion, it became the first regional Pokédex to include such Pokémon after [[Legendary Pokémon]] and [[Mythical Pokémon]].
* This is the only regional Pokédex to not include any Pokémon compatible with the [[Sun Stone]] or the [[Leaf Stone]].
** {{p|Eevee}} would later become compatible with the Leaf Stone in {{g|Sword and Shield}}, but only the original Sinnoh Pokédex returns in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, which does not include Eevee.
** Excluding the Platinum expansion, this is also the only regional Pokédex to not include any Pokémon compatible with the [[Fire Stone]] or the [[Water Stone]].
* This is the first Pokédex not to feature the {{p|Sandshrew}}, {{p|Vulpix}}, {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Oddish}}, {{p|Doduo}}, {{p|Grimer}}, {{p|Voltorb}}, {{p|Koffing}}, {{p|Horsea}}, {{p|Staryu}}, or {{p|Pinsir}} evolutionary lines.
* Poison is the only type that didn't have a Pokémon added to the Platinum Sinnoh Pokédex. Although the {{t|Fairy}} type wasn't introduced at that point, the expansion added {{p|Ralts}}, {{p|Kirlia}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Togetic}} and {{p|Togekiss}} which would later on be retyped Fairy.

{{EggGroups}}
The '''Dragon Egg Group''' (Japanese: '''ドラゴングループ''' ''Dragon Group'') is one of the fifteen [[Egg Group]]s. As of {{CURRENTGEN}}, {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dragon group Pokémon|pages}} Pokémon belong to this group.

==Characteristics==
The members of this Egg Group vary widely in [[type]]. Most of the Pokémon in this group are dragons or creatures considered to be dragons in various cultures. In particular, serpents, lizards and dinosaurs. Most Pokémon that belong to the Dragon group also belong to another [[Egg Group]].

Prior to [[Generation VIII]], neither the {{p|Trapinch}} family nor the {{p|Noibat}} family were part of this Egg Group.

==Pokémon==
Of the {{numpkmn}} Pokémon species, {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dragon group Pokémon|pages}} are in this Egg Group ({{#expr: ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Dragon group Pokémon|pages|R}}/{{numpkmn}}*100) round2}}%).

The '''sixth generation'''<ref>[http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/2013/01/index.html Hidden Power of Masuda]</ref> (Japanese: '''{{tt|第６世代|だい６せだい}}''' ''sixth generation'',<ref>[https://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir/2013/01/index.html 増田部長のめざめるパワー]</ref> rendered as '''{{tt|第六世代|だいろくせだい}}''' among fans) of [[Pokémon]], commonly referred to by fans as '''Generation VI''', is the sixth installment of the Pokémon video game series, starting with {{g|X and Y}} in 2013 and concluding with {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} in 2014. This generation saw the debut of 72 new Pokémon species (for a total of 721), as well as the introduction of the [[Kalos]] region and the return of the [[Hoenn]] region. The games of the sixth generation are in full 3D and are presented on the [[Nintendo 3DS]], a first for the [[core series]].

==History==
The sixth generation of Pokémon was announced with the reveal of {{g|X and Y}} on January 8, 2013 through a [[Pokémon Presents#January 8, 2013|Pokémon Direct]]. These games were released internationally in October of the same year; the tie-in animated [[series]], {{aniseries|XY}}, began airing one week later. Pokémon X and Y continued the established tradition of two paired games with slight variations between the two versions. Between them, these games introduced 72 new Pokémon species, 57 new moves, and 26 new Abilities. New gameplay advances were added, including a new battle mechanic called [[Mega Evolution]]. Among other changes, the games' {{DL|Type|type chart}} was modified for the first time since [[Generation II]], some twelve years earlier: {{t|Ghost}}- and {{type|Dark}} moves now have normal effectiveness against {{type|Steel}}s and a new {{t|Fairy}} type has been introduced.

The second pairing of games in Generation VI was announced on May 7, 2014 through the official Pokémon websites. {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, which are [[remake]]s of the [[Generation III|third-generation]] {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, were released worldwide for the Nintendo 3DS in November 2014.

The Generation VI games are not isolated from previous iterations and can communicate with the [[Generation V|fifth-generation]] games {{4v|Black|White|2}} through an online application known as [[Pokémon Bank]]. This feature, which is available for download from the Nintendo eShop, acts primarily as online storage for Pokémon species. It was first launched in Japan on December 25, 2013, although unexpectedly high demand forced it to close and relaunch the following January. International markets received the Pokémon Bank in February 2014. An extension of the Pokémon Bank called the [[Poké Transporter]] allows players to send Pokémon from their fifth-generation games to their X and Y cartridges via the cloud. Combining the Poké Transporter with the earlier [[Pal Park]] (from {{game5|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}) and [[Poké Transfer]] (from Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2) allows players to transfer Pokémon from {{game5|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald|FireRed|LeafGreen}} to their sixth-generation games.

==In-game continuity==
X and Y occur two years after {{v2|Black and White|s}}, thus being contemporaneous with {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. [[Looker]], who has made appearances in the [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation V]] games, is found in Kalos.

{{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} take place at least some years before Black and White and X and Y, as the [[Royal Unova]] is stated to be currently under construction and scheduled to be complete in an unspecified number of years and [[Mr. Bonding]] is born. Further, if they are contemporaneous with the events of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} it follows that they are also contemporaneous with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.

However, the overall continuity between the sixth generation games and those that precede them is not especially clear. In-game dialogue in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} suggests that the sixth generation games might take place in an {{pkmn|multiverse|alternate universe}} parallel to the universe in which the earlier games are contained. During the [[Delta Episode]] at [[Mossdeep Space Center]], [[Zinnia]] hints that there might be another version of Hoenn that has not discovered [[Mega Evolution]]:

:''"My people know it. From generation to generation, we pass along the lore about the distortions in the world borne by the Mega Evolution mechanism. And about the existence of another world, which we have long observed to be just like this one and yet not the same... That's right. A Hoenn region that's almost exactly like this one we live in. Filled with Pokémon and people like us. A world where maybe the evolution of Pokémon took a slightly different path, where Mega Evolution is unknown... A world where that war 3,000 years ago...never happened. A world where the [[ultimate weapon]] was never even built. And in that Hoenn of that world... What would happen if one day, out of the blue, a meteoroid appeared? What would happen to the people of that world, without the technology to destroy the meteoroid or the power to warp it away? ... Looks like it's beyond the power of your imagination."''

Zinnia's comments describe the world of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. The possibility of alternate universes gives some ambiguity to any perceived inter-generational continuity between the first five generations and the sixth; it is worth noting that the existence of alternate [[dimension]]s in the [[Pokémon universe]] has been explored in previous games, notably the [[Distortion World]] of {{game|Platinum}}, as well as in {{aniseries|PTS}} and {{spin-off games}}. [[Generation VII]] later confirms the existence of alternate universes with the introduction of [[Ultra Wormhole]]s, wormholes which allow for interdimensional travel, and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}'s [[Episode RR]].

==Advances in gameplay==
The advancements introduced in Generation VI include:
* The addition of {{cat|Generation VI Pokémon|72 new Pokémon}}, bringing the total to 721. Only one Evolution from a Pokémon featured in a previous generation is found: {{p|Sylveon}}, a new {{p|Eevee}} [[Eeveelution|Evolution]].
* The introduction of the {{t|Fairy}} type (the first such introduction since [[Generation II]]) to balance out the {{t|Dragon}}, {{t|Poison}}, and {{t|Steel}} types. A new Fairy-type form for {{p|Arceus}} is added.
* The addition of {{cat|Generation VI moves|58 new moves}}, bringing the total to 617.
* The addition of {{cat|Abilities introduced in Generation VI|24 new Abilities}}, bringing the total to 188.
* The games now feature a completely three dimensional environment, as well as a new 3D battle system with 3D models for Pokémon as opposed to 2D sprites.
* A new battle mechanic, [[Mega Evolution]], which can only happen during a battle and will wear off once the battle ends. This is only available for certain Pokémon.
* Another [[region]] to explore, the [[Kalos]] region, far away from the previous five and based on {{wp|France}}.
* A new [[villainous team]], [[Team Flare]], whose goal is to make money and create a beautiful world for themselves and eliminate all who don't meet their standards.
* The ability for the {{player}} to walk in an eight directional grid as opposed to the four directional grid that has been common in all the preceding games.
* Three new battle modes:
** A new battle mode called [[Sky Battle]]s, where only certain {{type|Flying}} Pokémon, or those whose Ability is {{a|Levitate}} can participate.
** Another battle mode called [[Horde Encounter]]s, where multiple [[wild Pokémon]] will engage in a battle against one of the player's Pokémon.
** The third format is known as an [[Inverse Battle]], which completely reverses {{DL|Type|Type chart|type matchups}}.
* The introduction of [[ambush encounter]]s, occurrences where wild Pokémon chase the player or jumping at them from a hiding place to initiate a Pokémon battle, somewhat similar to the [[Phenomenon|phenomena]] mechanic.
* The addition of [[Super Training]], a way to increase a Pokémon's [[EV]]s.
* The addition of [[Trainer customization|customization]] for the player, with the ability to choose a variety of outfits to wear at any time.
* The new [[Pokémon Bank]], an online Nintendo 3DS application that will allow the storage of up to 3,000 Pokémon through the payment of an annual fee.
* [[TM]]s have been expanded from 95 to 100.
* Players can now select which language they want to start the game in. This language cannot be changed.

===Alterations from Generation V===
* Badges are once again needed in order to use [[HM]] [[field move]]s.
* {{DL|Tall grass|Dark grass}} is no longer found.
* The abandonment of:
** The [[Pokémon Musical]] and the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].
** {{season||Seasons}}.
** [[Mass outbreak]]s and [[Phenomenon|phenomena]].
** [[Mail]] and <{{player|player name}}>'s [[PC]].
** The [[footprint]]s in the [[Pokédex]].
* {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Snubbull}}, {{p|Granbull}}, {{p|Togetic}}, and {{p|Togekiss}} replace their {{t|Normal}} typing with {{t|Fairy}}; while {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Wigglytuff}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Igglybuff}}, {{p|Marill}}, {{p|Azumarill}}, {{p|Ralts}}, {{p|Kirlia}}, {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Mawile}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Cottonee}}, and {{p|Whimsicott}} gain the {{t|Fairy}} type. {{m|Charm}}, {{m|Moonlight}}, and {{m|Sweet Kiss}} are also changed from {{t|Normal}} moves into {{t|Fairy}}
* {{cat|Pokémon whose base stats changed in Generation VI|Twenty-eight Pokémon}} from earlier generations receive a 10-point increase in one of their base stats. They are {{p|Butterfree}}, {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Pidgeot}}, {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Nidoqueen}}, {{p|Nidoking}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Wigglytuff}}, {{p|Vileplume}}, {{p|Poliwrath}}, {{p|Alakazam}}, {{p|Victreebel}}, {{p|Golem}}, {{p|Ampharos}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Azumarill}}, {{p|Jumpluff}}, {{p|Beautifly}}, {{p|Exploud}}, {{p|Staraptor}}, {{p|Roserade}}, {{p|Stoutland}}, {{p|Unfezant}}, {{p|Gigalith}}, {{p|Seismitoad}}, {{p|Leavanny}}, {{p|Scolipede}}, and {{p|Krookodile}}.
** {{p|Pikachu}} receives a 10-point increase each in two of its base stats.
* Pokémon can now [[Evolution|evolve]] after a battle even if they are knocked out or if the player lost.
* Pokémon obtained in Generation VI have a {{DL|origin mark|blue pentagon}} on their summary screen.
* The player can no longer [[feature registration|register]] screens, such as Pokédex entries.
* Various changes were made to the [[experience]] system:
** When multiple Pokémon participate in battle, each now gets full experience instead of a fraction of the experience.
** The experience formula no longer takes in account difference between Pokémon's levels.
** The [[Exp. Share]] is now a Key Item and gives experience to all Pokémon in the [[party]] that did not participate in battle.
** Experience is now gained after {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} a wild Pokémon.
* Some Pokémon's classification via body styles is changed, such as {{p|Wurmple}}'s.
* {{p|Azurill}} can no longer transition from female to male upon evolving.
* When a named character speaks, the message box no longer starts with their name and a colon, except [[Double Battle]] trainers and in the [[Battle Chateau]].
* Significant {{pkmn|Trainer}}s no longer speak in the middle of a battle.
* The battle music no longer changes at low HP or when a [[Gym Leader]] sends out their last Pokémon.
* The {{DL|Type|type chart}} has slightly changed from Generation V:

:{| class="roundy" style="text-align:center; background: #{{y color}}; border: 3px solid #{{x color}}"
|-
! Attacking type
! Defending type
! Old effectiveness

| style="background:#{{steel color}}" | {{typecolor|Steel}}
| style="background:#FFF" | Not very effective
| style="background:#FFF; {{roundybr|5px}}" | Normal effectiveness

==Region==
===Kalos===
[[File:Kalos XY.png|thumb|250px|Kalos]]
{{main|Kalos}}
The [[Kalos]] region was introduced in {{g|X and Y}}. This region is geographically isolated and has no close ties with any other region introduced prior to Generation VI.

====First partner Pokémon====
The [[first partner Pokémon]] of the sixth Generation follow the traditional {{t|Grass}}/{{t|Fire}}/{{t|Water}} trio setup. At the beginning of the game, the player must choose between the Grass-type {{p|Chespin}}, the Fire-type {{p|Fennekin}} and the Water-type {{p|Froakie}}.

===Hoenn===

{{main|Hoenn}}
[[Hoenn]] was featured in Generation VI in {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, a pair of [[remake]]s of the [[Generation III]] games {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}.

====First partner Pokémon====
As in other remakes, the [[first partner Pokémon]] of Hoenn remain the same as they did in Generation III. [[Professor Birch]] gives {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, or {{p|Mudkip}} to the player as thanks for using it to save him from a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Poochyena}}.

==Kalos thematic motif==
The sixth generation focuses on the concept of beauty and different aspects related to it, such as balance and harmony. [[Trainer customization|Fashion]] and different forms of art are featured considerably in the newly introduced region, whose name comes from the Greek word for beauty.<ref name = NLinterview>[https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/09/interview_junichi_masuda_and_hironobu_yoshida_discuss_pokemon_x_and_y_mega_evolutions_and_the_2ds Interview: Junichi Masuda and Hironobu Yoshida Discuss Pokémon X and Y, Mega Evolutions and the 2DS | Nintendo Life]</ref> {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}}, the [[game mascot]]s for {{g|X and Y}}, reflect the concepts of harmony and balance, being the "Life" and "Destruction" Pokémon, respectively. [[Team Flare]]'s actions and motives also reflect the beauty theme, as they strive to create "a beautiful world" by any means necessary. X and Y are named for the respective axes and are used to represent different mentalities as well as the ways in which people can find common ground.<ref name = NLinterview/>

==Reception==
Generation VI advanced competitive play by introducing [[Mega Evolution]], making already powerful Pokémon such as {{p|Rayquaza}} and {{p|Mewtwo}} stronger, and giving unviable Pokémon such as {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Mawile}} a use in the metagame. The addition of the Fairy-type nerfed several previously prominent Pokémon like {{p|Hydreigon}} and {{p|Scrafty}}, and allowed others such as {{p|Clefable}} and {{p|Azumarill}} to rise in prominence.

Generation VI was largely well-received for hearkening back to [[Generation I]], and making older Pokémon popular again. However, as time went on, Generation VI became more controversial in certain parts of the fandom, with the lower difficulty and the lack of a {{DL|Core series|release model|third version}} to the X and Y games being prominent criticisms.

==Trivia==
* This generation introduced the fewest new:
** {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, with 72.
*** [[Legendary Pokémon]], with three.
*** [[Gender unknown]] Pokémon, with seven.
** [[Moves]], with 62.
** {{Abilities}}, with 27.
* This is the only [[generation]]:
** To not introduce a dual-type [[Powerhouse Pokémon]], instead introducing a Powerhouse Pokémon of a single type.
** In which [[transfer]]ring Pokémon from previous generations is possible, but not required in order to complete the [[National Pokédex]] (excluding [[Mythical Pokémon]]).
** To not introduce a pure {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.
** To introduce a dual-[[type]] {{2t|Fire|Water}} Pokémon, marking the last type to be paired with Water.
** To not introduce a {{type|Ghost}} specialist.
** To not introduce a new {{type|Dragon}} move.
*** This is also the first instance of any generation not introducing a move for a type after that type's introduction.
** To not introduce a [[Friendship Evolution]] since its introduction in [[Generation II]].
*** However, a [[Sylveon (Pokémon)|Pokémon]] introduced in this generation did have its [[Methods of Evolution|method of Evolution]] changed in a [[Generation VIII|future generation]] to friendship.
{{bulbanews|No new Mega Evolution patch for X or Y players}}
* This is the first generation:
** To introduce new moves between games. Of the 62 moves introduced, four of them were introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} and are not present in {{g|X and Y}}. As a result, Pokémon in the former that know these moves cannot be traded to the latter.
** Not to introduce a [[Mythical Pokémon]] whose base stats are all 100.
** To introduce Pokémon with {{t|Normal}} as its secondary [[type]].
** To introduce dual-type Pokémon with {{t|Flying}} as its primary type.
** Where each pair of games released on the same date worldwide.
** That {{ga|Red}}, {{ga|Blue}}, the [[Kanto]] Gym Leaders, and [[Lance]] do not appear in.
*** [[Cynthia]] also does not appear, making this the first generation since her debut that she does not appear in.
** Where the player could not rename the [[rival]] in all core series games.
** Since [[Generation IV]] to introduce more than one cat-like [[Evolution|evolutionary line]]. All other generations with the exception of [[Generation II]] (which introduced none) introduced only one:
*** [[Generation I]] introduced {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Persian}}.
*** [[Generation III]] introduced {{p|Skitty}} and {{p|Delcatty}}.
*** [[Generation V]] introduced {{p|Purrloin}} and {{p|Liepard}}.
*** [[Generation VII]] introduced {{p|Litten}}, {{p|Torracat}}, and {{p|Incineroar}}.
*** While [[Generation VIII]] didn't introduce a full new evolutionary line, {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Meowth}} evolves into a new species, {{p|Perrserker}}.
*** [[Generation IX]] introduced {{p|Sprigatito}}, {{p|Floragato}}, and {{p|Meowscarada}}.
** To introduce {{t|Fighting}}/Flying Pokémon, marking the last type to be paired with Flying.
* This generation relieved restrictions on formatting that were present in previous generations:
** The [[nickname]] character limit increased from 5 to 6 in Japanese and Korean, and from 10 to 12 in Western languages.
** The {{player}} name character limit increased from 5 to 6 in Japanese and Korean, and from 7 to 12 in Western languages.
** The names of all [[move]]s, [[item]]s and {{Abilities}} introduced before Generation VI are no longer limited to 12 characters, including any spaces. Some of these names were re-formatted; for example, Selfdestruct was renamed {{m|Self-Destruct}}. The character limit has been increased to 16.
* This generation leaves the most extra room in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] [[Living Pokédex|if one fills it with exactly one of each species of Pokémon]], with there being 930 spaces and 721 Pokémon.
* This generation contains the [[core series]] games with the shortest English titles: {{pkmn|X and Y}} have one letter each.
* This is the last generation so far:
** To have all core series games directly compatible with each other in multiplayer.
** To introduce a new evolution of {{p|Eevee}}.

A '''Rising Star''' (Japanese: '''ホープトレーナー''' ''Hope Trainer'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. They seem to be younger versions of the {{tc|Ace Trainer}} class, much like how the {{tc|Veteran}} class is an older version.

Only male Rising Stars are seen in {{pkmn|Legends: Z-A}}, where they use Pokémon often considered popular, including [[first partner Pokémon]] and [[Powerhouse Pokémon]].

One male and one female Rising Star can team up together to form a {{tc|Rising Star Duo}} and challenge the {{player}} to a [[Double Battle]].

In [[Generation VII]], they keep their Pokémon in [[Great Ball]]s.

Nuzlocke Challenge

2026-07-22T17:01:50Z

Meeper12346: pseudo-legendaries -> Powerhouse Pokémon

[[File:Basic Nuzlocke rules.png|thumb|300px|The two basic Nuzlocke rules]]
The '''Nuzlocke Challenge''' is a set of rules intended to create a higher level of difficulty while playing the [[Pokémon games]]. A playthrough using these rules is often called "'''a Nuzlocke'''".

Nuzlockes are a popular way to play the games among {{pkmn|fandom|fans}}. Many feel that the rules encourage greater Pokémon variety, create value for ones the player would not normally choose, and promote closer bonds with the player's team. The rules are not an in-game function, but self-imposed on the player's part, and thus subject to variation.

The challenge originates from the [http://www.nuzlocke.com/ comic series] of the same name, which features a {{p|Nuzleaf}} resembling ''{{wp|Lost (2004 TV series)|Lost}}'' character {{wp|John Locke (Lost)|John Locke}} as a recurring gag character.

==History==
The basic rules were invented by Nick Franco, a Californian screenwriter and then-university-student, in March 2010. Franco posted comics depicting his playthrough of [[Pokémon Ruby]] to 4chan's /v/ board, where they gained attention and inspired others to try the challenge.<ref>https://www.vox.com/culture/2019/11/22/20976759/pokemon-what-is-nuzlocke-challenge-sword-shield</ref> The following month, Franco launched a website for his comics and a forum for fans' challenge chronicles.<ref>https://nuzlockeforums.com/forum/threads/reflecting-on-12-years-of-the-nuzlocke-challenge-nostalgia-on-how-it-all-started.20929/</ref> Over time, the concept spread to various websites and formats such as written stories, animations and livestreams.

Franco uses "Nuzlocke" as a screen name, while his comic is titled "Pokémon: Hard-Mode". However, the word Nuzlocke eventually came to be associated with the ruleset itself.

==Rules==
===Basic rules===


The Nuzlocke Challenge has only two rules that must be followed:
*'''Limited Encounters:''' The {{player}} may only catch the first [[wild Pokémon]] encountered in each area, and no others. If the first wild Pokémon encountered faints or flees, there are no second chances.
**If the first encounter in an area is a [[Double Battle]] or [[Horde Encounter]], the player may choose which of the encountered Pokémon to catch, but only one of them.
*'''Dying''': Any Pokémon that [[Fainting|faints]] is considered dead and must be {{pkmn2|released}}. Revival methods such as [[Revive]], {{m|Revival Blessing}}, etc. are forbidden. If the player runs out of living Pokémon, they've failed the challenge and must restart the game.

===Near-universal rules===
*'''Mandatory Nicknames:''' The player must nickname all of their Pokémon, for the sake of forming stronger emotional bonds.
*'''"Met in" Confirmation:''' If the player is unsure whether a location is a valid new encounter or not, such as multiple levels of a cave, they can look at the Pokémon's [[summary]] page to see where they were "Met" in order to confirm whether it's a new location or not.
**'''Gift Pokémon:''' Some players consider [[Gift Pokémon]] (such as the {{p|Eevee}} found in the [[Celadon Condominiums]]) to be separate encounters from wild Pokémon encountered in the same area.
***As of [http://www.nuzlocke.com/comics/pokemon-hard-mode/page/11/ White: Hard-Mode, Episode 3], it is implied that the player can accept Pokémon that are received freely from NPCs.
*'''No Resets:''' The player may not voluntarily soft-reset to undo progress.
*'''No Cheating:''' Cheating devices (such as [[GameShark]]) may not be used except to make the game harder (such as cheating to disable [[Exp. Share]] in games that don't allow such an option.)
*'''Full Wipe:''' A [[Black out|black out/white out]] is considered to be 'game over' even if there are live Pokémon left in the [[Pokémon Storage System]].
*'''No Outside Trading:''' The player may only use Pokémon obtained through in-game methods, meaning that [[Trade|trading]] with other save files, [[Mystery Gift]]s, etc. are all prohibited.
**'''Trade Evolution Clause:''' There is no firm consensus on trading a [[trade Evolution]] Pokémon away and back to one's file to [[Evolution|evolve]] it.
*'''Boxing:''' Deceased Pokémon may be permanently sent to the [[Pokémon Storage System]] or [[transfer]]red to another game rather than releasing them.

===Optional rules===
Though the above rules tend to stay consistent with all players, many variant rules have been created to adjust difficulty based on personal preference. Many other rules exist besides those listed here. Regardless of the optional rules used, the run is considered a Nuzlocke Challenge so long as the two basic rules are in place.

====Increased difficulty====
===== ''Battle restrictions'' =====
* '''Set Mode Clause:''' The battle style must be changed to "Set" in the options menu, meaning the player does not get the opportunity to switch out their Pokémon after an opponent's Pokémon faints.
* '''Equal Parties/Fair Fight Clause:''' During Gym Leader and [[rival]] battles, the [[Party|active party]] must not have more Pokémon than the opponent's.
* '''No Items:''' No items may be used during battles except for [[held items]]. Limitation due to perceived power-level of X-items.
* '''No Heal Items:''' [[Potion]]s and [[Status condition healing item|status-healing items]] may not be used.
* '''No Held Items: '''Held items may not be used.

===== ''Leveling restrictions'' =====
* '''Level Cap: '''The player may not use Pokémon above the level of the next [[Gym Leader]]/[[Elite Four]]/{{pkmn|Champion}}'s highest-levelled Pokémon (their "ace"). Pokémon that exceed the level limit might be left in storage until they become eligible, or they might have to be released.
* '''No Evolving: '''The player must use the B-button to cancel any Evolutions under their ownership.
* '''No Child Support:''' The {{pkmn|Day Care}} may not be used.
* '''No Exp Share: '''The [[Exp. Share]] may not be used. (This does not apply to games starting from {{LGPE}}, where the Exp. Share can't be disabled without third-party tools.)
*'''No Candy:''' [[Rare Candy]] and [[Exp. Candy]] may not be used.

===== ''Overworld restrictions'' =====
* '''No/Limited Pokémon Centers:''' Pokémon Centers may not be used, or only used a certain number of times per Center, or a certain number of times between each Gym.
* '''No Buying: '''No items may be purchased from NPCs; the player must rely on what they find in the overworld or receive for free.
* '''Limited Balls:''' Only a certain number of [[Poké Ball]]s may be purchased per store.
* '''No Escape:''' The player may not [[Escape|flee]] from battle.
**'''No Wild Encounters:''' Alternatively, the player must flee whenever possible, in order to limit the amount of [[experience]] gained.

===== ''Pokémon restrictions'' =====
* '''Random Starter:''' The [[first partner Pokémon]] must be randomly chosen. A common system is: if the last digit of the character's [[Trainer ID number]] is 1-3, the player must choose the Grass-type first partner Pokémon; if it is 4-6, the Fire-type; if it is 7-9, the Water-type; if it is 0, free choice. Alternatively, use the Trainer ID {{wp|Modulo operation|modulo}} 3: remainder 0 = Grass, remainder 1 = Fire, remainder 2 = Water.
* '''Caught Only:''' The first partner Pokémon must be released or boxed after the first wild Pokémon is caught.
* '''One Per Gym:''' The player may only catch the first Pokémon after each Gym Leader instead of in each area.
* '''Ban List:''' Certain Pokémon such as [[Legendary Pokémon]], [[Powerhouse Pokémon]], and/or other powerful Pokémon are banned as they excessively mitigate the difficulty of the challenge.
* '''Monotype/Monocolor Challenge:''' Only Pokémon of a certain [[Type]] or [[List of Pokémon by color|color]] may be used. Rather than the first Pokémon encountered in an area, the player may catch the first one which fits the category or will evolve into fitting the category. If a Pokémon would lose the category upon Evolution, it may not evolve.
* '''Notepad Clause:''' No Pokémon may be kept in the PSS; in other words, the player may only own six Pokémon at a time. This was named after its inventor, user "Notepad" on the now-defunct original Nuzlocke Forum.
** '''Notepad Extreme/First 6 Only:''' The player may only own six Pokémon throughout the entire run. If all six faint or otherwise become ineligible, then it's an instant 'game over'.
* '''Giftlocke:''' Only [[Gift Pokémon]] may be used. Catching and breeding Pokémon are banned.
* '''No Repels:''' It is forbidden to use [[Repel]]s before the first encounter on a route, as this can guarantee certain appearances. Alternatively, it is forbidden to use Repels whatsoever, in order to expose the team to more danger.

===== ''Miscellaneous'' =====
*'''Limited Training: '''Quality-of-life features such as [[Pokémon-Amie]], the [[DexNav]] and [[Super Training]] may not be used.
*'''Challenge Mode:''' ({{2v2|Black|White|2}} only) The difficulty must be set to [[Key System|Challenge Mode]], which increases the levels of opposing Trainers' Pokémon and gives some notable trainers extra Pokémon, held items, and different movesets. This is not frequently used because, due to [[List of battle glitches in Generation V#Challenge Mode stat glitch|a glitch]], the stats of NPC-owned Pokémon are based on the level in Normal Mode, making them only slightly stronger than their Normal Mode counterparts while still awarding more experience.
*'''Memory Only:''' Online aids (walkthroughs, NPC team info, etc.) may not be used.
*'''Speedrun:''' In addition to the Nuzlocke rules, the player tries to defeat the Champion with as little "time played" on the save file counter as possible.
*'''Progression Sacrifice:''' After each [[Badge]] the player randomly selects one party member to sacrifice.

====Decreased difficulty====
*'''Slow Start:''' The two basic rules are not in effect until the player has gained their first [[Poké Ball]]s and thus the ability to catch Pokémon. For example, encounters starting from the {{p|Poochyena}}{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}/{{p|Zigzagoon}}{{sup/3|E}} that the player has to save [[Professor Birch]] from, up to when the player can catch Pokémon, are not counted. Likewise, in the games where the first rival battle is immediately after obtaining the first partner Pokémon, the "release or permanently box a Pokémon if it faints" rule is often not enforced at that time.
*'''Species/Dupes Clause:''' The "first wild Pokémon in each area" rule does not apply in an area until a Pokémon in an evolutionary line is encountered that has not been caught yet. For example, if the player's first encounter in an area is with a {{p|Caterpie}} and they already own a Caterpie, {{p|Metapod}}, or {{p|Butterfree}}, it wouldn't count as their first encounter in that area. This allows for increased variety in a Pokémon collection.
**A limit may be set on how many times the player can apply the Species/Dupes Clause in an area. If this many duplicate Pokémon are encountered in an area, the Species/Dupes Clause is no longer applied for that area and the player must settle for the next Pokémon they encounter.
**'''Dusty Clause/Token Clause''': During a monotype or monocolor run, for each area the player passes through which has no valid encounters, they might collect one "token" which is "spent" to catch an extra valid Pokémon in the future. Named after its inventor, user "Dustox" on the Nuzlocke Forum.
*'''Second Chance:''' The player may have a small number of "second chances" or revives of fallen team members. Typically this type of ruling is done by Gym, such as getting 1 revive per Badge.
*'''Shiny Clause:''' [[Shiny Pokémon]] can be caught even if they're not a first encounter, and do not need to be released if they faint. It's up to the player whether Shinies may be used during the challenge, or merely traded away/transferred to another game for safekeeping.
**'''Shiny Replacement Clause:''' A compromise where Shiny Pokémon may be used in a Nuzlocke, but another Pokémon must be released in exchange.
*'''Checkpoints:''' Each Gym Badge can act as a checkpoint. If the player gets a game over, they may restart from when they won their last Badge.
*'''HM Helper:''' If the player has no Pokémon that can use a [[field move]] that is required to continue the game, they may catch another Pokémon to use the required field move. However, this Pokémon cannot be used in battle and must be released as soon as it is no longer needed or if the player catches another Pokémon that can use the same field move.
*'''On Safari: '''The "first encounter only" rule is modified for the [[Safari Zone]]. One catch may be permitted for each sector of the Zone, rather than the more restrictive interpretation that the entire Zone is one area. This rule is largely used to due to the varied encounter pools of each sector, and the Safari Zones often containing many Pokémon not found elsewhere.
**Similarly, the [[Pokémon Den]]s of Galar's [[Wild Area]] can be interpreted as their own "new area" each, rather than only making one catch from the entire Wild Area or from each named sub-area.
**Areas sharing a name but divided by story progression may be considered two distinct areas, such as [[Unova]]'s [[Pinwheel Forest]], which contains an outer area accessible before beating the [[Nacrene Gym]], and an inner area accessible afterwards, each with their own encounter pools.
*'''A Little Help From My Friends: '''Cheating devices (such as [[GameShark]]) may be used.
**'''Rare Candy Clause:''' Hack in infinite [[Rare Candy|Rare Candies]] to avoid tedious grinding. It was popularized by the streamer Pokémon Challenges.
**'''Master Ball Clause:''' Hack in infinite [[Master Ball]]s to avoid wild Pokémon accidentally being knocked out, [[Escape|running away]], or using escape moves like {{m|Teleport}} and {{m|Roar}}.

==Variant rulesets==
*'''Hardcore Nuzlocke:''' A general name for any Nuzlocke variant which restricts item use and over-leveling, in order to produce a more difficult run and more strategic play.
*'''Wonderlocke''': Any Pokémon caught must immediately be traded using [[Wonder Trade]] and the received Pokémon is used instead. Typically, this comes with a level restriction where if the received Pokémon is more than a certain number of levels higher than the original Pokémon, it must be traded again until an appropriate-level Pokémon is received.
*'''Soul-Link''': Two-player variant where both players' Pokémon are "soul-linked" based on their origin. So the first partner Pokémon are linked, the Pokémon from Route 1 are linked, and so on. If a Pokémon dies, its soulmate does too. Linked Pokémon must be in both players' parties at once, i.e., one cannot leave a Pokémon in the PSS while its soulmate is on the active team.
**Common additional rules include restricting duplicate types between the two players. If either player is using a Pokémon of a certain type, the other player cannot use any Pokémon of that same type. If both players find the same type of Pokémon for one encounter, neither is able to use it.
*'''Egglocke''': The player catches Pokémon, 1 per route as normal, but instead of using the Pokémon caught, they hatch a randomly generated egg. Usually this is done via trades or cheat devices, where the egg Pokémon are chosen by a third party, such as friends or a streaming audience.
*'''Wedlocke''': Each pair of Pokémon is married/bonded based on the order they're caught in. A Pokémon can only switch out for its bondmate. If a Pokémon dies, its bondmate must be the next one sent in. If one "widow" survives a battle, they might either remarry the next catch, or get perma-boxed ("retire out of grief").
*'''Randomizer:''' Randomizer mods can be used to add more variety to Nuzlockes. However, encountering a Legendary or other powerful Pokémon early can greatly reduce difficulty. Additionally, catch rates may have to be adjusted via the Randomizer in order for Legendary Pokémon to be feasibly caught using low-tier Balls.
*'''Alphabetlocke:''' The six Pokémon in the active party must be the first six species names in alphabetical order (or reverse alphabetical). For example, if the player has a Squirtle, Pidgey, Mankey, Beedrill, Pikachu, Geodude, Clefairy, and Abra, then the player's active team is: Abra, Beedrill, Clefairy, Geodude, Mankey, Pidgey. Then if Mankey evolves into Primeape, its new name is lower in alphabetical order, so Pikachu takes its spot on the team.
*'''Lorelocke:''' [https://nuzlockeforums.com/forum/threads/the-lorelocke-celebrating-5-years-ama-of-rubyclaw-and-mewstein-included-and-update-1-60-with-all-gen-7-pokemon.2197/ A large ruleset] with individual rules for each species, inspired by mythological creatures and stories.
*'''Ballocke:''' Instead of limiting Pokémon by route, this variant limits by type of Ball. Only one Pokémon may be caught in a Poké Ball, one may be caught in a Great Ball, one in a Quick Ball, etc.

==Tips==
*'''Repel Encounter Manipulation:''' Having a [[Repel]] active and a Pokémon in the first position at a specific level can be used to filter out unwanted encounters and in some cases guarantee specific encounters.
*'''Sacking:''' For difficult encounters, it is wise to have at least one Pokémon you are willing to sacrifice in order to switch to a better one. Recommended Pokémon to be sacked are: ones with weak base stats, ones whose type is shared by a more powerful teammate, or ones who could have a replacement caught in an upcoming place.
*'''Play Around The Crit:''' Being aware if your Pokémon is in danger of being taken out by a [[critical hit]] is key to avoiding unnecessary deaths. [[Generation I]] has a critical hit damage multiplier between 1.5× and 1.95× depending on the level, with higher levels doing more damage. From Generations {{gen|II}} to {{gen|V}}, the damage dealt by a critical hit is 2× as much as a normal hit. From [[Generation VI]] onward, critical hits deal 1.5× more damage. Also, critical hits ignore stat changes, such as increased Defense with Defense Curl.
*'''Avoid Unnecessary Encounters:''' Trainers use better decision-making and have higher levels on average than wild Pokémon within the same route. Avoiding non-required trainer battles increases the chance your Pokémon will survive.
*'''Be Aware of Mandatory Battles:''' Don't trigger mandatory battles, such as rival fights, without first making sure your team is fully healed and properly leveled.
*'''Don't Underlevel:''' There is no reason to have an under-leveled Pokémon during important battles. Even if adhering to Gym Leader level restrictions, make sure to have your team at the level cap before you challenge the Leader.
*'''Protect the Important Ones:''' Be aware of which Pokémon are best suited to upcoming Gyms, and do not expose them to unnecessary risks such as fighting a strong Route trainer.
*'''Baiting:''' {{pkmn|Trainer}}-owned Pokémon will choose the move that is most effective against the enemy Pokémon. As such, you can bait certain moves in order to get a free switch. A common example is having a Pokémon weak to {{type|Ground}} moves out on the field and then switch to a Pokémon that is immune to Ground moves, such as a {{type|Flying}} Pokémon or a Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}}.
*'''Generational Awareness:''' Be aware of changes between generations. For example: {{a|Sturdy}}, in Generations {{gen|III}} and {{gen|IV}} only, protects against [[one-hit knockout move]]s, while in Generation V onward, it protects the Pokémon from being knocked out with one hit while at full HP.
*'''PP Stall:''' Using healing moves or items (if allowed) in order to force a dangerous encounter to waste all their good moves. Typically, this is used for low-PP moves that deal large amounts of damage. If successful, this can lead to the enemy using {{m|Struggle}} to knock itself out.

==Trivia==
*So far in the original Nuzlocke comics, one first partner Pokémon of each type has been used: {{p|Treecko}} in [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Ruby]], {{p|Charmander}} in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed]], and {{p|Oshawott}} in the ongoing [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|White]] challenge.
*The original Nuzlocke run through Ruby was a failure, due to the entire active team dying in the Champion battle.
*In the Nuzlocke Forums' [https://nuzlockeforums.com/forum/threads/final-team-frequency-4-0.20759/ log of successful runs], the most victorious Pokémon of all time is {{p|Gyarados}}, which has survived 240 recorded Champion battles at time of writing.

'''Rebecca''' (Japanese: '''ヒトミ''' ''Hitomi'') is a major character who appeared in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

==In the movies==
[[File:Rebecca laptop M07.png|thumb|230px|left|Rebecca holding her laptop]]
Rebecca, along with her friends [[Rafe]], [[Sid]], [[Audrey and Kathryn|Audrey, and Kathryn]], came to [[LaRousse City]] to compete at the [[Battle Tower]]. There, she met {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, and {{an|Brock}} immediately took an interest in her. When a mysterious aurora borealis appeared over the city, she began studying the unusual phenomenon, along with [[Professor Lund]]'s assistant [[Yuko]].

When she and her friends were introduced to [[Tory Lund]], he took them to a special garden where he would go to have conversations with his special friend. She soon grew an interest in [[Deoxys (M07)|Tory's mysterious friend]]. When Deoxys attacked the city, Rebecca and the others took refuge in Professor Lund's lab, and she realized that Tory's friend had the same energy pattern as the mysterious aurora. She concluded that the patterns were a form of communication between Tory's friend and Deoxys; the former means "friend", while Deoxys is asking, "Where are you?"

Later, her Metagross used a {{m|Reflect}} to block the Deoxys clones from catching them, but Rafe and Blaziken were captured after its {{m|Overheat}} no longer had enough power to hold them back. Rebecca later helped restore power to the city in order to help regenerate a second Deoxys' body, having her Metagross use {{m|Confusion}} to turn a windmill. In the ending credits, after the crisis is resolved, Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} pose for her webcam. Brock is devastated as she waved goodbye after getting off the tram.

Rebecca briefly reappeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', where she was seen fighting {{ga|Brendan}}'s {{p|Swampert}} with her {{p|Tyranitar}}. She later briefly reappeared in a montage in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', which chronicled the preceding nine {{pkmn|movie}}s.

===Character===
Rebecca is an incredibly intelligent and curious young girl. Whenever anything captures her interest she will point her laptop towards it and study it. She has a fairly even temperament, but she became irritated when Ash accidentally took her scheduled place in the [[Battle Tower]]. She is also very inquisitive, and when she cannot find an answer on her laptop, she becomes frustrated. This was shown by her reaction towards the mystery of auroras appearing away from the [[North Pole|North]] and South Poles.

==In the games==
In {{Pkmn|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl}}, {{Pkmn|Platinum}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl}}, Rebecca debuts as a female {{tc|Ace Trainer}} who uses a {{p|Metagross}} on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}}. She mentions using her laptop to analyze battles, similar to her {{pkmn|animated series}} counterpart. However, this reference was not recognized by the translation team of Diamond and Pearl, which named her '''Jamie'''.

Pokémon (species)

2026-07-22T16:37:28Z

Meeper12346: pseudo-legendary -> Powerhouse Pokémon

[[File:20th Anniversary Magazine Ad SM.jpg|thumb|300px|The first 721 different species in a promotion for the franchise's 20th anniversary]]
'''Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター''' ''Pocket Monsters''; '''ポケモン''' ''Pokémon'' for short) are fictional creatures that are central to the [[Pokémon]] franchise. Many new species of Pokémon are often introduced simultaneously with the promotion and release of new games.

==Terminology==
In the [[Pokémon world]], the word "{{wp|species}}" is not used exactly the same as in real-world biology, where it would refer to a group of organisms that can have fertile offspring (unlike the {{pkmn|breeding}} between different Pokémon species), and a real-life organism would not change between different species. A Pokémon can change species by means of [[Evolution]], which more closely resembles growth and development or metamorphosis rather than {{wp|evolution|evolution in the real world}}.

Each species has a [[List of Pokémon by name|name]] starting with a capital letter, such as "{{p|Pikachu}}". The species name is also often used in the singular form referring collectively to members of that species, such as "Pikachu is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon". The plural form of the species is the same as the singular, such as "two Pikachu". In some early Pokémon media, certain [[List of nonstandard species plurals|incorrect plurals]] such as "{{p|Diglett}}s" were occasionally used.

An individual Pokémon is usually known by its species name as well, such as "Pikachu used {{m|Thunder Shock}}". However, some individual Pokémon have [[nickname]]s instead.

In [[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]], the names of Pokémon species are written in katakana, and they also have official romanizations. For instance: {{p|Onix}} (Japanese: イワーク ''Iwark'').

==Overview==
There are currently [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|{{numpkmn}} known Pokémon species]] that inhabit the [[Pokémon world]]. They take on many [[shape]]s and [[Size and weight variation|size]]s, resembling animals and living creatures in the real world. However, they possess several fantastic powers not demonstrated by most real animals, including the manipulation of aspects of the material world, such as {{t|electric}}ity or {{t|fire}}, each having their own [[type]] and [[Pokémon category|categories]]. It is implied that there are more Pokémon always waiting to be [[Pokémon discovery|discovered]] beyond the current count.

While most Pokémon resemble animals and may behave like them, there are many that do not resemble animals at all, taking on other forms such as plants, inanimate objects, machines, human-like forms, or other more enigmatic and exotic appearances. Pokémon inhabit an extremely diverse range of habitats, ranging from the driest [[desert]]s to the lushest jungles, the deepest oceans to the highest {{cat|mountains}} and everything else in between, even [[Extraterrestrial Pokémon|outer space]] and other [[dimension]]s. Pokémon take up various ways of living in those places. There are many uses to spending time with Pokémon; some people take them in as pets, some study them, but all Pokémon can be befriended and made into potential allies. A common symbol of partnership between human and Pokémon is often met by putting the creature into a [[Poké Ball]], in which all share the ability to shrink down small enough to fit into. Many people who raise Pokémon are called [[Pokémon Trainer]]s, people who dedicate their lives to Pokémon, participating in multiple activities involving the species. Not all Pokémon Trainers are seen as kind towards these creatures, and many [[villainous team|villainous organization]]s seek to use Pokémon in malicious ways.

Many Pokémon are able to [[Evolution|evolve]] from or into other Pokémon species, a process that typically makes them larger and stronger. Evolution can be seen as a form of maturity in certain species, but not all. In some cases, this process can be reverted by [[devolution]]. Most Pokémon by nature are known to compete in [[Pokémon battle]]s. These battles may be for sport among human-owned Pokémon or for survival and protection between wild Pokémon. In these battles, Pokémon use techniques called [[move]]s, that they can use within the fight or elsewhere, either to defend themselves or their Trainer, or to perform a task. Beyond their normal [[type]]d attributes and moves, many Pokémon posses other traits that can be triggered or used passively. These traits are called [[Abilities]], which a Pokémon may activate once certain conditions are met. Another function some Pokémon may have, similar to that of Evolution, is a change in appearances called a [[form]]. Some Pokémon may be able to change their form, while some may have one as a distinction between others of the same species. In the games, each Pokémon has a distinct voice associated with each individual species or form known as a [[cry]], while in the {{pkmn|animated series}}, most Pokémon are known only to say their name.
[[File:Ralts Evolution Z-A.png|thumb|center|300px|A Pokémon can have up to three stages of [[Evolution]]. Additionally, some species, such as {{p|Gardevoir}} (middle right), can perform a [[Form|form change]].]]

There are many forms of food that Pokémon may eat, including one another as prey. However, Pokémon Trainers may offer different types of treats and natural items such as [[Berries]] to their Pokémon. Additionally, many plant-like Pokémon and {{p|Heliolisk}} are able to photosynthesize. Many Pokémon are known to reproduce by producing {{pkmn|Egg}}s, though it is unknown how these eggs are formed or where they come from. There are also many [[Artificial Pokémon|man-made]] and human-influenced Pokémon that have been created by other means, such as {{p|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Porygon}}, or {{p|Trubbish}}. There are multiple categories and [[variant Pokémon|variations]] that Pokémon may fall under as well, which describe certain groups and relationships Pokémon may have with each other. Some examples include [[Legendary Pokémon]], [[Mythical Pokémon]], [[Paradox Pokémon]], [[Ultra Beast]]s, and [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]]. Pokémon who have artificially had the doors to their hearts shut are known as [[Shadow Pokémon]]. Every species has a unique appearance where their color is different from how their species is usually depicted called a [[Shiny Pokémon|Shiny coloration]]. These alternately-colored Pokémon are sought out by collectors for their rarity.

===Design===
Traditionally, Pokémon are primarily designed for the [[core series]], though there are times when a species has been used to promote new [[Pokémon movie|movie]]s or particular [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off games]] such as [[Pokémon GO]]. Since [[Generation I]], all Pokémon have had one or two [[type]]s and certain [[height]]s and [[weight]]s. More qualities relating to each Pokémon were introduced in later games, such as [[gender]] and [[Ability|Abilities]]. Some Pokémon are even designed with certain properties in mind.

A species' overall aesthetic and appeal, such as its cuteness or coolness, is also determined within the long process of creating a new Pokémon. Additionally, a Pokémon may be designed off how it lives and interacts with the things around it such as other people and Pokémon, including how it would use its moves and abilities in reaction to those subjects. According to [[Kensaku Nabana]], the designer for {{p|Golisopod}}, it had taken him over six months to create it, which is a typical creation time for a Pokémon.<ref>[https://www.eurogamer.de/pokemon-lets-go-pikachu-und-evoli-der-lange-weg-zum-meistertrainer] interview with [[Junichi Masuda]] and [[Kensaku Nabana]] for Eurogamer.</ref> In [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon The Alola Region Artworks|The Alola Region Artworks]] concept art book, [[Ken Sugimori]] has mentioned that he often tries to keeping the balance of making a Pokémon look cool or cute, while also keeping what may make a species memorable, such as {{p|Oshawott}}'s cheeks having freckles detracting from its cuteness but keeping memorability.<ref>[https://www.siliconera.com/pokmon-designer-on-balancing-cool-or-cute-pokmon-by-adding-uncool-or-uncute-features/ Silicon era article] about the interview with [[Ken Sugimori]] for the USUM Essentials book.</ref><ref>[https://soranews24.com/2018/08/03/is-the-beauty-of-imperfection-the-secret-behind-the-popularity-of-pokemon-character-designs/ Article with images relating to the USUM guide book, interesting on Luxray and Oshawott]</ref>

Pokémon are often designed based on real-world inspiration, including animals and objects, while other times they may be based on folklore and mythology, or a combination of multiple inspirations from fiction and non-fiction. The three [[first partner Pokémon]] of the [[Unova]] [[region]] were based on different types of imagery from various countries, with {{p|Snivy}} having a {{wp|Western world|western}} motif, {{p|Tepig}} having a {{wp|China|Chinese}} motif, and {{p|Oshawott}} having a {{wp|Japan|Japanese}} motif. Oshawott in particular was based on a {{wp|sea otter}} with a {{wp|samurai}} theme, with its fully evolved form, {{p|Samurott}}, being based on a completely different species of animal but carrying a similar theme. Samurott was designed off {{wp|sea lion}}s, as designer [[Yusuke Ohmura]] saw a sea lion show at the Tama Zoo and thought that sea lions were powerful, combining elements of both animals together to create the evolutionary line.<ref>[https://www.pokebeach.com/2010/09/pokemon-peer-interview-translations Poké Beach artcile] on the creation of the Unova first partner Pokémon</ref>

==In the core series games==
[[File:Gen VII Powerhouse Pokémon Artwork.png|thumb|250px|Several [[Powerhouse Pokémon]] that are part of an evolutionary line]]
Pokémon have been, from the very beginning of the franchise, are spoken of as friends and partners to the [[human]]s of the [[Pokémon world]], helping them with various tasks from constructing buildings to exploration. Many people in the Pokémon world take Pokémon with them on a {{pkmn|journey}} to gather [[Badge]]s and compete in the various [[Pokémon League]]s as {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, using them in battles against Pokémon both owned by other Trainers and found in the {{pkmn2|wild}}. In the [[Alola]] [[region]], Pokémon and Trainers instead take on trials in the [[island challenge]] on their journey. In addition, there are many different {{cat|Pokémon competitions|tournaments}} in which Trainers can compete together with their Pokémon, such as [[Pokémon Contest]]s and the [[Pokéathlon]].

Across the nine [[generation]]s of {{pkmn|games}}, Pokémon are found in multiple ways including: encountering them in [[tall grass]] or out in the open, finding them in [[cave]]s or {{cat|ruins}}, going [[fishing]] for them, {{m|surf}}ing on water, using [[field move]]s or [[item]]s on certain objects, [[gift Pokémon|gifted]] by an [[Non-player character|NPC]] or [[In-game trade|traded]] with an NPC or another player. These are often joined by several more ways in which to encounter Pokémon, such as: obtaining and hatching {{pkmn|Egg}}s, using the [[Poké Radar]], participating in [[Max Raid Battle|Max]] and [[Tera Raid Battle]]s, being [[ambush encounter|ambushed]], or attracting them with [[Lure]]s, {{m|Sweet Scent}} or [[Honey]]. Multiple games allow for the {{player}} to encounter multiple Pokémon at once through [[Double Battle]]s or in [[Horde Encounter]]s, while some may be called upon by another in [[SOS Battle]]s.

===History===
Pokémon have existed since ancient times. It is said that {{p|Arceus}} was the first Pokémon in existence, while {{p|Mew}} is thought to be a common ancestor among all naturally born Pokémon. Pokémon in the dinosauric past have since [[fossil|fossilized]] and gone extinct, but many can still be revived in the modern day.

A long time ago, according to [[Sinnoh myths|myths]] found in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]], Pokémon were once considered to be the same as people, being respected and ate food at the same table. Beyond this, there also became a time when Pokémon and humans were considered vastly different and lived separate lives. As shown in {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, in the Sinnoh region, originally named [[Hisui]], Pokémon were feared as monsters and villages were often built to hide and defend from Pokémon. Despite this, some cultures saw Pokémon as friends and partners and would live with Pokémon, including within the [[Diamond Clan|Diamond]] and [[Pearl Clan]]s or in other regions such as [[Alola]]. At this time, other regions, such as [[Kanto]], also found ways to tame [[wild Pokémon]].

Many civilizations built religions and cultures based on beliefs around Pokémon, framing some as all-powerful gods and deities and others as sacred and noble. Many times, these Pokémon are [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] or [[Mythical Pokémon|Mythical]]. The people of Hisui, the ancient Sinnoh people, worshiped a god known as "Almighty Sinnoh", a Pokémon named {{ga|Arceus}} who they believed had created everything. The [[Draconid people]] in [[Hoenn]] worshiped a Pokémon known as {{p|Rayquaza}}, referred to as the Dragon Lord, after it had saved the world from destruction caused by [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}. In Alola, festivals and parties were performed for the [[guardian deities]], four Pokémon that protect the islands they inhabit. While typically these praised Pokémon are Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, many are not—including [[noble Pokémon|noble]] and [[Totem Pokémon]], which still actively take part in a region's culture and identity. Other Pokémon such as {{p|Bronzor}} have also historically been considered sacred.

As more research has developed on Pokémon, people eventually began to trust them and work alongside them. A [[Pokémon Trainer]] is a common position for humans, who seek to train Pokémon and better understand them, being a primary focus of the core-series. Before the concept of a Pokémon Trainer had existed, people that wielded Pokémon in [[Poké Ball]]s were known as Pokémon Wielders. A [[Pokédex]] is often used to record information on Pokémon, giving the owner better understanding of a Pokémon's ecology. Pokémon are also still used in fields beyond just training and studying, they can be seen as a use of travel in the form of [[Ride Pokémon]], or as form of help by clearing trees or solving puzzles by using [[field move]]s. As many uses of Pokémon were found, [[history of Poké Balls|many Poké Balls were developed over time]] as well, making it easier to catch Pokémon in different professions and study.

Many games also focus on the origins many Pokémon may have and where they come from.

===Construction===
In the games, Pokémon are no more than fragments of data, identifying certain characteristics inherent to them. As the games have progressed, more data is added to each Pokémon, typically to reference new features introduced in games of the new generation.

The methodology for construction of Pokémon data changes across generations. For the different constructions, see the data structure explanations for:
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|I|Generation I}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|II|Generation II}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|III|Generation III}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|IV|Generation IV}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|V|Generation V}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|VI|Generation VI}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|VII|Generation VII}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|VIII|Generation VIII}}
* {{gdis|Pokémon data structure|VIII|Generation IX}}

==In the spin-off games==
===Play It! series===
In [[Pokémon Play It!]] and [[Pokémon Play It! Version 2]], it is possible to play the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}} rather than train Pokémon. However, at some point {{OBP|Julie|Play It!}} sees a {{p|Beedrill}} flying off-camera and its [[cry]] is heard, which is an indication that actual Pokémon exist in this universe.<ref>From the lesson "What's a Pokémon?", found in both [[Pokémon Play It!]] and [[Pokémon Play It! Version 2]].</ref>

==In animation==
===''Pokémon the Series''===
In {{aniseries|PTS}}, Pokémon are shown to be creatures with distinctively more anthropomorphic qualities than real-world animals, with several even {{pkmn2|talking|able to speak}}. Some Pokémon have the ability to speak [[human]] {{pkmn|language}} instead of their own names, such as {{MTR}} of {{TRT}}. They also seem to be able to mostly understand human language, while most humans cannot understand Pokémon speech, although there are a few who claim they can. Most species speak only one word: their own name, e.g. {{p|Pikachu}} saying "Pika! Pikachu!" and so forth, though some Pokémon only grunt or roar, such as {{p|Charizard}}.

The series takes a clear stance of right and wrong on the use of Pokémon: Trainers such as {{Ash}} are shown to treat their Pokémon with respect, as partners and friends, while evil organizations like [[Team Rocket]] are shown to use Pokémon as mere tools, keeping them in cages, making them fight to exhaustion—a stark contrast to Ash and [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]], who he treats as his best friend and keeps {{pkmn2|walking|on his shoulder}}, rather than in a [[Poké Ball]], because of its own preference.

====History====
{{aniseries|PTS}} and related media have given a more in-depth history of [[human]] interaction with Pokémon than is given by the games: in [[The Birth of Mewtwo]] radio drama, it is implied that Pokémon came into the world after the human species did. [[Poké Ball]]s have not existed forever, and are in reality an apparently recent development, with one owned by a young [[Sam|Professor Oak]] being shown to be vastly different than ones used in modern times.

Prior to the [[History of Poké Balls|invention and mass-production of Poké Balls]], people tended to use hollowed-out [[Apricorn]]s, native to the [[Johto]] region, to {{pkmn2|catch}} Pokémon, while even further back, Pokémon were not known as "Pokémon" at all, but as "magical creatures" (Japanese: 魔獣 ''majuu''). In these times, many Pokémon were apparently feared because of their powers, sometimes so great that the most powerful of these monsters [[Myths and legends involving Legendary and Mythical Pokémon|passed into legend]] and were often seen as {{wp|deity|deities}} in their own right.

Interestingly, Ash and his friends, through their interaction with history in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', seemingly invented the term "Pokémon" to refer to these creatures. This, however, creates a {{wp|bootstrap paradox}}, as their knowledge and use of the word comes only from its wide use in their future time. What may remain true is that the term came into practice elsewhere on its own.

The guidebook ''[[Pocket Monsters: The Animation]]'' gave a bit more detail on Pokémon. Specifically, they were rumored to have been created by God on {{wp|Book of Genesis|the seventh day of creation}} as "doodles", and since they were created on holiday, they were commanded to neither rule over nor be ruled by humanity. It also inferred that they had some relation to merpeople and dragon myths, and that their species was discovered by a French nobleman named Count Tajirin (a subtle reference to franchise creator [[Satoshi Tajiri]]) during the 18th century.

===''Pokémon Horizons: The Series''===
{{incomplete|section|needs role/characteristics in Horizons; compare/contrast to PtS}}

==In the novels==
===Pocket Monsters: The Animation===
{{main|Pokémon world (PMTA)#Pokémon and animals|Pokémon world (PMTA) → Pokémon and animals}}

In [[Pocket Monsters: The Animation]], it is said that Pokémon and [[Animals in the Pokémon world|animals]] may be related to each other. As an example, it is said that cats and lions are related by evolution, and that {{p|Meowth}} may be related to cats as well.

In 1925, the technology to store Pokémon in small objects such as {{i|Poké Ball|Poké Balls}} or capsules was invented by Professor Nishinomori. The name "Pokémon" was introduced after this invention, as it was not possible to store them in pockets before. However, it is not known what Pokémon were called before this word was coined.

== Pseudo-legendary --> Powerhouse ==

It seems to me that everyone who commented on this page, other than Shiny Noctowl, was dumbfounded as to the article's title and definition therein. For pages dealing with fanon terminology, this is a good sign that something has been done '''wrong'''; fanon terms are ''necessarily'' known to a large number of fans, as opposed to a select few, or in this case - no more than one.

Furthemore, the page (prior to my editing it) included mentions of Pokémon with legendary characteristics, despite their having nothing to do with the suggested definiton of pseudo-legendary. It was also a mere copy-and-paste of the corresponding section on the [[Legendary]] page. Now, as for the definition itself, it should be crystal-clear that the powerhouses, as defined by myself, are ''distinct'' in their categorization from any other Pokémon ({{p|Flygon}}, for the sake of discussion). Simply put, they are non-legendary Pokémon whose total base stats is 600, which is a great deal higher than Flygon's 520 (see the trivia paragraph for clarification on {{p|Slaking}}). Besides, what makes Flygon any more special than {{p|Aggron}}, {{p|Walrein}} and the 7 fully-evolved, two-typed starters? All of these match the definition used by Shiny Noctowl. I do hope that competitive usage is not the reason, because {{p|Swampert}} and {{p|Infernape}} clearly outweigh Flygon in that regard.

It amazes me that everyone assumed that the definition was acceptable simply because someone had put it forth. Bulbapedia encourages critical thinking and sets virtually no limits on the users' capacity to edit existing pages. Why was I the only one who had the fortitude to replace the previous definition with one that is actually used by the fandom? --[[User:Unown Lord|Unown Lord]] 16:47, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
:Mudkipchan apparently heard pseudo-legendary on Smogon, and I've heard pseudo-legendary on several websites, so I think it should be moved back. I agree, though, that the definition needed some work. But why remove Flygon? Its stats are slightly lower, but base stats shouldn't be included in the definition. Other than base stats, Flygon is in every way a pseudo-legendary. [[User:Shiny Noctowl|S<big>h</big>i<big>n</big>y]] [[User talk:Shiny Noctowl|<big>N</big>o<big>c</big>t<big>o</big>w<big>l</big>]]  13:57, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

::You can see my comments on the article's name further below. Now, the explanation for my excluding Flygon should be quite obvious from the pieces of trivia; Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross and Garchomp have more in common than what you listed in your definition, and in fact, they have more in common than just my addition to that definition (a total base stats of 600). Flygon does not share that common denominator; what it does share with the aforementioned five is also shared by ''at the very least'' Walrein and Aggron, who are part of a three-stage line, have two types, require nearly as much experience to reach their form, and have an even higher total of base stats (530). If the only reason for which you included Flygon but excluded those two is that you thought only Flygon was available strictly in its first form, then you thought wrong: In Generation III Sealeo and Walrein are also not available in the wild; in Generation IV both Vibrava and Sealeo are available (incidentally, Lairon is not).

::But all of that is irrelevant, since neither Flygon nor Walrein (nor Aggron, for that matter) has enough in common with the powerhouses/pseudo-legendaries so as to be added to the group. It is enough to require a total base stats of 600 to limit the group to the five relevant ones (a respectable addition in and of itself), but again, their common denominator is even greater than that. Look at the trivia and see it for yourself. --[[User:Unown Lord|Unown Lord]] 13:55, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree with Shiny, Pseudo-Legendary makes more sense. I.E. My Snorlax is a powerhouse, but it isn't a pseudo-legendary. My Flygon is not my powerhouse, yet it is a pseudo-legendary. Catch my drift? [[User:Midnight Celtic|Midnight Celtic]] 15:28, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

:I agree, powerhouse is too broad a term for these Pokémon. Pseudo-legendary fits the bill better. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]][[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 05:57, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

::First of all, my ''true'' gripe was with the contents of the article; redirecting the article to a new title was primarily symbolic of the reshifting of its underlying ideas. However, I would like to point out the irony in the statement that powerhouse is too broad a term spanning just about every overused Pokémon - the same can be said of pseudo-legendary, as evidenced by the fact that this article originally contained a separate list of Pokémon with legendary characteristics!

::Furthermore, I personally feel that ''pseudo-legendary'' should be used to describe only two Pokémon that are not even mentioned in the article: {{p|Unown}} and {{p|Phione}}. ''Legendary'' alludes to mystery and nature or universe-controlling abilities; this article deals with battle prowess, for which legendaries are certainly well known, but it takes second place to their aura. Besides, some legendaries are not as battle-competent as the pseudo-legendaries/powerhouses in the article - practically all tweleve members of the legendary trios, and arguably some others. This comparison holds in base stats (the legendary trio all have a total of 580, which is lower than 600), but even an in-depth comparison on a competitive level leads to the same conclusion, at least generally. Therefore, is it justified to attach the name ''pseudo-legendary'' to a definition that highlights the battle prowess of Pokémon that are actually stronger than some legendaries? On the other hand, Unown and Phione are indeed pseudo-legendary if the term is taken to mean a Pokémon whose aura is associated with a true legendary ({{p|Suicune}} in Unown's case and {{p|Manaphy}} in Phione's).

::But I digress, as I do agree that if ''pseudo-legendary'' is more frequently used by the fandom to describe the group in question, then it should be used for the purposes of discussing a fanon term.

::One last thing - I appreciate Politoed666's token of solidarity. I don't mind reversions to my own edits, especially when done by another sysop, but it isn't my idea of showing respect; it would have been better to wait a bit longer in case I had arguments to present. I only wonder why the same level of urgency was not taken to revise the contents of the article in its original format, when it obviously needed re-working. --[[User:Unown Lord|Unown Lord]] 13:55, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree with certain points made by Unown Lord. Perhaps the overall issue with the term "pseudo-legendary" is the usage of "legendary." There are Pokémon that are "legendary" which do have certain exclusive characteristics, and applying the term to another group has its drawbacks. While the term may certain have specific applications to the pseudo-legendary Pokémon it is difficult to draw a completely defined line, contrary to the case with legendary Pokémon. The debate over which Pokémon "qualify" has no feasible ending point, as fans will always stick to their opinion concerning which ones "deserve" to be included. Sure, we have limits on Bulbapedia but in spite of this fact, there is still such an issue, as we can see from this very page. Honestly, I have no problem with the term, despite how vague it is and the supposed difficulty adhering to its guidelines. My wife on the other hand, disagrees with its usage for many of the reasons I mention. [[User:Deviant Audio|Deviant Audio]] 16:01, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

== 600 stat point total a requirement? ==

Doesn't that seem a little subjective? I mean sure they all have that but that doesn't mean a future Pokemon of similar psuedo-legend status will have that total. Plus with these Pokemon it could just be coincidence they all have 600. Having 600 total might have been how it happened for all of them, but I just don't seem it as a ''requirement'' per se. Just that that's how it happened. Toastypk 03:34, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
:Not really. The psuedo-legends were most likely designed so that their stats WOULD total 600. The only likely exception would be Dragonite due to Special Attack/Defence being a single stat in Generation 1, but it was probably reworked to total 600 in Generation 2. It's hardly likely to be coincedence that their base stats all total 600. - [[User:Nebula|Nebula]] 16:54, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Hmm... well I've never paid attention to stat totals anyway, just relative strengths. Toastypk

== Available only as their first form. ==

The article states that "Most pseudo-legendaries are obtainable in the wild strictly in their first form. However, Dragonair is also obtainable in the wild in most games where Dratini is (all but Pokémon Red, Green and Blue). Likewise, Pupitar is available in the wild in Crystal. Gabite is found in Victory Road in Platinum."

However, with the addition of Platinum, Gabite can be found in the wild. This means that no, only 2 out of the 5 of them are only found in their first form in the wild. I honestly don't think that something like that should be included in the article, since when was 2 out of 5 "most", or even noteworthy? You could say that all 5 of them have the colour blue on them somewhere, but is that noteworthy?

I'd have already removed it, but the page is protected. [[User:Ggled|Ggled]] 22:09, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

On all the pseudo legendaries, there is a trivia entry stating that they have the second highest base stat total behind slaking. It then goes on to say how it's tied with the other pseudo legendaries etc etc.
Wouldn't it make more sense to just not have this? I mean there's already a link to the pseudo legendary page (here) at the top of the page, and it explains here that they all have the same base stat total etc. Just seems redundant to me and pointless trivia.

I'd say the defining feature is the 600 BST.

Obviously, all the pseudos that currently exist have two types (and we should mention that fact, don't get me wrong), but wouldn't we just adjust our definition if they (hypothetically) introduced a monotype pseudo in the sixth generation? I don't think we should "define" a pseudo as having two types; nor should we list that as one of the reasons Slaking isn't. --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 17:25, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

== Ulgamoth ==

This may be shot down, but SURELY Ulgamoth is a pseudo-legendary. It may lack the Base Stats and Second Evolution, but it's clearly intended to be in the same tier. Its final evolution receives the EV yield of a Third-Stage pokemon, it comes right after Sazandorah, just like how Salamence and Metagross are placed next to each other (Garchomp was separated from legendaries by Evolutions from previous gens). It has significant mythology connected to it, and is obtained in peculiar ways, one of which is fashioned like a Legendary Encounter. It evolves at a ridiculously high level. Hell, the concept itself is that of something that would have a cocoon stage, but missed out on it somehow. The 550 Base Stat is peculiar, but surely can be put down to it having Butterfly Dance, an obscenely powerful move. Pretty much everything points it to being a counterpart with Sazandorah as the two pseudo-legendaries of Generation 5. [[User:N-Denizen|N-Denizen]] 23:30, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

:::I would like to disagree with everyone that opposes Volcarona as a Pseudo-Legendary. Just have a look at nearly every other Bug type that came before it for instance, and you'll notice that ALL tend to have stats below 400 or very rarely reaching 500 or higher. In nearly all games before B/W it was almost like a rule or some sort, or a tradition. Perhaps Volcarona lives up to this tradition even with B/W's upgrade to Bug types. As a Bug type, it would not be able to have as high of stats as other types if it followed this old tradition, so that would explain Volcarona's BST of 550 instead of 600. Another possible explaination is probably just an excuse to make it have a lower BST than Genesect. The big seal to all this is that Alder uses Volcarona as his main Pokemon. Why would it be used as his main if it wasn't a Pseudo-Legendary? Why just have something random instead of a Psuedo-legendary or even a Legendary? It all starts to make sense when you think about it. Volcarona, though having a lower BST than the other Pseudo-Legends, still has the exact same kind of power you'd expect from one due to it's gargantuan stats compared to other Bug types. Even Genesect feels very weak in comparison to Volcarona, as well as giving Tyranitar and Metagross something to fear and respect at the same time. So the point of all of this is, it would seem reasonable to accept Volcarona as a Pseudo-Legend due to past treatment of Bug types in general. Besides, doesn't it seem more like a fan idea to have them required to have a BST of 600 and be a 3 stage line? What if GF has their own requirements to the idea and simply design them as they please? For a Bug type to fill this role, all of this would make alot of sense. Why simply believe a Pseudo-Legend requires those things only because of past tradition from Gen I-IV? Wouldn't it be fair for a Bug type Pseudo-Legend to exist yet still follow the tradition of Bug types having lower Base stats than others? [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 20:36, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
::::Pseudo-legendary is a fan term, so fans determine the requirements. It is based on a pattern we as fans have detected in each generation? Being "strong" has nothing to do with being pseudo-legendary (other than that pseudo-legendary requires a 600 BST). Champion usage does not make something pseudo-legendary, even if it is their primary Pokémon. Alder doesn't use a legendary Pokémon because they are restricted to battle facility Trainers and storyline events. They did not fit it into their previous pattern. Anything that breaks the mold is not bending the pattern, but rejecting it. What does Volcarona have in common with actual pseudo-legendary Pokémon? If we let Volcarona in, then the definition of pseudo-legendary becomes "has two types, needs 1,250,000 exp to get to level 100".

:::::Now you're being just biased about all this. Why do they all need BSTs of 600? Can't Volcarona be the exception due to it's Bug typing? Even if Dual typed and Slow exp group were the only requirements now, it would all still be the same, since Volcarona would be the only Pseudo-Legend that doesn't fill the previous 600 BST requirement. All you seem to be trying to do is sticking too much to tradition, because honestly, I thought you'd stick with the 1st to 4th gen's Pseudo-Legend tradition of Attack being the highest stat when it was revealed Hydreigon's highest was Special Attack instead. Due to that, I thought everybody would be biased with even it due to favoring Special Attack instead. Volcarona, when compared to Aggron of Flygon, makes far more sense as a Pseudo-Legendary. Honestly, I think of Pseudo-Legendaries having the highest BST of all non-legendaries out of one of their types. Dragonite, Salamence, Garchomp, and Hydreigon have the highest Base Stat total of all non-legendary Dragon types, Tyranitar has the highest of all Non-legendary Rock types, and the highest for Dark types along with Hydreigon. Metagross has the highest out of all Non-legendary Steel and Psychic types. Volcarona has the highest of all Non-legendary Bug types. It all makes sense when you consider how a Pseudo-Legendary could be designed with that in mind. [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 21:56, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

Didn't want to start an edit war, so I'm just going to post here to see what others think. So far as i know, and as far as I believe the fandom is concerned, the only defining traits of a pseudo legend are that they have a base stat total of 600 and that they evolve. I myself was unaware that they all need 1.25 million experience points to hit level 100. Does anyone else think that that fact in the definition in the opening paragraph is extraneous?

== Slaking ==

I am aware that an argument has already been brought up to add Slaking to the list. I think it should be added, for the following reasons. From what I understand, the definition here of a Pseudo-Legendary is (a) it can't be legendary. (b) It must evolve twice. It is not part of the definition that all of them must be dual typed, nor that they must have an immunity. This is simply a trait that all of the current members of the list happen to share. The third part of the current definition is that all of them must have exactly 600 BST. This is the part I don't understand. I can understand why it would be nice to have a requirement for at least 600, but why does it have to be exact? This brings us to Slaking. It has the highest base stats of any non-legendary. It evolves twice. Why should it be denied the position of being pseudo-legendary for being too powerful? Pseudo-legendary means "resembling a legendary", and legendaries are supposed to be powerful. There are 16 legendaries with a BST over 600, and 11 even higher than Slaking's. In terms of its lack of a second type, 22 out of 47 legendaries are single-typed. Slaking's lack of a second type definitely should not exclude it from being a pseudo-legendary. [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 22:19, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
:''Slaking, though not pseudo-legendary, has the highest base stats of all non-legendary Pokémon and one immunity, to the Ghost-type. However, it lacks some factors: a base-stat total of 600 and a secondary type. Slaking is also hindered by its ability, Truant, which is likely the reason for its high stats. '' From this page. However I would say the biggest reason it is not on here is because Truant truly cripples any astounding power it has. The only time to experience its true full potential is in a double battle with a Pokemon that uses Skill Swap on it so it can attack every turn rather than half the turns. ''[[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen]] [[User talk:Frozen Fennec|Fennec]]'' 22:24, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
::As I mentioned above, however, I don't think that a secondary type or an exact BST should be part of the definition. Yes, Truant does cripple Slaking, but it is technically speculation which says that this is the reason for its high stats. It is a non-legendary that has an even higher BST than any others on the list. [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 02:22, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
:::It is a fandom-defined term. This is the definition. We only report was it, not make it the way it is. The fandom says BST must equal 600, so Slaking is not pseudo-legendary. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:28, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
::::Might we want to review this definition, though? If we want the list to consist of those who are "like legendaries", we shouldn't restrict the list to dual types, as almost half of legendaries are single-typed. Similarly, less than half of legendaries have a BST of exactly 600. "The fandom" is, in my opinion, a vague term; it can't be that everybody agrees on the same point.

== So seriously, what's the definition? ==

As I pointed out above (and nearly no one responded), if the sixth gen introduces a non-legendary Pokemon with a 600 BST with only one type will we say that it's not pseudolegendary, or will we just change the definition of what a psuedolegendary is? Why is having two types or a specific level-up curve considered a ''necessary condition'' to being a pseudolegendary rather than just a trait all of the current ones happen to have? Indeed, given that you can completely remove either restriction or both of them and not change the list of pseudolegendary Pokemon ''at all'' (you can't do so with the 600 BST or the fact that they come from evolutionary families), I'd say Occam's Razor would slice away those unnecessary conditions. --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 07:09, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
: PS. I'd like to point out that the opening paragraph used to mention that all pseudos had Attack as their highest stat, though it wisely did not include that as a part of the definition of what makes a pseudo a pseudo. [[Hydreigon|Now it doesn't say that any more.]] Just sayin'. --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 07:26, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
::The pseudolegendaries are variations on a theme. The dual types and stats are part of that theme. Single type would suggest that there's an underlying difference. Experience group makes them hard to raise, suggesting that they're all very similar. Like PP of moves, experience group is an indicator of the similarity of Pokemon. If Nintendo feel the need to make it a lower experience group, that makes it easier to raise, suggesting that there are underlying differences - the Pokemon are not considered equal. Stats like that aren't just a random choice. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 20:01, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
:::I can't say I agree. We can say that the two types and the level-up curve are traits they all have, at present, but how is it part of the definition? If you remove those restrictions, the number of pseudolegendary Pokemon remains six, so those restrictions aren't helping with the definition and just unnecessarily restrict possible future psuedolegendaries. I was asked to provide a source that they're not necessary. Where's the source that they are? I mean, let's say, totally hypothetically, that one made a page called "Pikachu Clones" back in the fourth gen, discussing Pokemon such as Pichu, Plusle, Minun, and Pachirisu. (The usefulness of such a page isn't the point; let's just say that one existed.) At the time, they decided to define the Pokemon as "Cute mono-Electric-type Pokemon that have a resemblence to Pikachu. Aside from Pichu and Pikachu, none of the Pikachu clones evolve." Are you to say that, when the fifth gen came out, this hypothetical page would have been wrong to alter its definition and include Emolga? If so, why? And if not, then why did the definition need to include the "mono-" part of it at all if it's unnecessarily limiting and so easily discarded? --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 20:57, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
::::I personally don't think having two types should be part of the definition; I don't see a pure Dragon-type pseudo legendary Pokemon being that unlikely. I did a quick search, and I couldn't find any other non-forum giving a definition of pseudo-legendary Pokemon, so there is nothing stating either way. However, I would say experience group is just as important as BST. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:42, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
:::::No, I still stand against it. I'm being treated like I'm trying to redefine which Pokemon are pseudolegendary, and, yes, I do see that others have tried. But I'm not. Removing these two restrictions does nothing. It's Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross, Garchomp, and Hydreigon now. It'll be Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross, Garchomp, and Hydreigon if you remove those restrictions.
:::::Who made the call that they're necessary to the definition? I've been asked to source that they're not. Why must I prove the negative? It's the positive case that requires proof! Should I add a [citation needed] to the definition?
:::::If you were to remove the 600 BST part of the defintion, and still keep everything else, you'd add things like Aggron and Rhyperior to the list, so we can't do that.
:::::The "three-stage evolutionary family" thing comes off to me as a roundabout way of saying "not legendary", but I'm fine with it since legendary status can be arguable (the Legendary page on this very wiki is unsure on Phione, and even though I strongly disagree, I've even seen modern fans try to argue Rotom's legendary status.) And without it, Jirachi and Landorus are brought into the list of "pseudolegendaries", so obviously that restriction is necessary, regardless of the wording.
:::::But why type combos? Why experience groups? Removing them changes what? Is there a 600-BST three-stage mono-type family in the medium-slow group that is clearly not pseudolegendary I'm somehow unfamiliar with? (Well, Slaking has a 6'''7'''0 BST and three stages and is a monotype, though he is in the Slow group, but... Truant is all it takes to convince me he's not a proper pseudolegendary. And he's the closest there is, besides the obvious six!)
:::::As I said, if you were to put on the side (in Trivia or something) that all of them, at present, are dualtypes in the Slow experience group, you wouldn't see me argue - it's true, after all. But to put it in the definition, as if to say "Pokémon without these traits can't be pseudolegendary"... I jusst don't see it. --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 18:31, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
::::::Thing is, pseudo-legendary is the observation of a pattern and nothing more.

Knowing the fandom—who tried and push Volcarona and Haxorus into being pseudo-legendary—there will certainly be many people who think it should be. However, it won't truly be one. I don't see that ever happening though, as experience group is part of the pattern.

:::::::::::I would argue that, though it's not a very specific or encyclopedic definition, a pseudo-legendary Pokemon would be a non-legendary Pokemon as strong, stat-wise, as legendaries.

Now that said, all pseudos that exist have 600; there's no argument here and it works to say it.

Pseudo-legendary is a fanmade term, and the definition of pseudo-legendary varies from fan to fan. So why does it say Pokémon like Flygon, Aggron, Kingdra, et cetera are mistaken for pseudo-legendaries?

:They are not pseudo-legendary by the definition agreed upon by Bulbapedia and metagame websites.

== Edit request for definition of "pseudo-legendary" ==

"'''Pseudo-legendary Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|擬似伝説|ぎじでんせつ}}''' ''pseudo-legendary'') is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon that has a three-stage [[evolution]] line, [[Experience#Slow|1,250,000 experience at level 100]], and a [[base stats|base stat]] total of exactly {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 600|600}}. The term originates from the prefix ''pseudo-'', which means "false". Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than many other non-[[Legendary Pokémon]] due to their high base stats.

Other variations of the definition omit the need to have 1,250,000 experience at level 100."

should become

"'''Pseudo-legendary Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|擬似伝説|ぎじでんせつ}}''' ''pseudo-legendary'') is a fan term commonly used to refer to any [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] that is not in the [[Undiscovered (Egg Group)|Undiscovered Egg Group]] and has a [[base stats|base stat]] total of exactly {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 600|600}}. Currently, all pseudo-legendary Pokémon have exactly two [[evolution|pre-evolutions]] which can only evolve by leveling up past a certain [[level]] and [[Experience#Slow|1,250,000 experience at level 100]]. The term originates from the prefix ''pseudo-'', which means "false". Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than many other non-[[Legendary Pokémon]] due to their high base stats."

The BST of 600 matters because anything less would make it less "legendary". Legendary Pokemon are set apart by their lack of evolutionary relatives, inability to breed, and high stats. As long as a Pokemon meets the latter requirement and not the former two, wouldn't it make sense for it to be a pseudo-legendary Pokemon?

== New Evidence! ==

I play Pokemon Black 2. I noted that whenever I send out a Legendary that lands on the ground (like the 3 musketeers and Zekrom), there is a shimmer effect after they land. This seems to show that this Pokemon is a legendary. However, there are other Pokemon who have this shimmer effect as they land, too.

Examples include Tyranitar, Crustle, Arcanine, Onix, Steelix, Dragonite, Graveler, Golem, Milotic, Emboar, Metagross, Beartic, and Mamoswine.

Could these Pokemon and others in fact have a classification as "Legendary"? Are they just some of the strongest Pokemon, or are they all just heavy? {{unsigned|Reshiespeon}}
:It's a visual indicator that they're heavy. It has nothing to do with Legendary status. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:36, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

== "For one reason or another..." ==

In the Trivia section at the bottom of the page, five pokemon commonly mistaken for pseudo-legendaries are listed, followed by the sentence "For one reason or another, these Pokémon do not fit the criteria of those above and so are not pseudo-legendary Pokémon."

While this is correct, it would perhaps be more helpful to mention that it is because none of them have a base stat total of 600. It could also, perhaps, be mentioned that Slaking has a higher base stat total than 600, but the criteria require exactly 600 (and perhaps also mention Truant as rationale for not including Slaking anyway--but that's probably too in-depth for a trivia section).

To clarify, I am suggesting, at least, changing "For one reason or another, these Pokémon do not fit the criteria of those above and so are not pseudo-legendary Pokémon." to "None of these Pokémon have the requisite base stat total of 600 to be considered pseudo-legendary." [[User:Xolroc|Xolroc]] ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 18:09, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

== Requirements to be a pseudo-legendary ==

I am not sure where, exactly, the definition of pseudo-legendary came from, but it strikes me that two of the three criteria given to class a Pokémon as pseudo-legendary are redundant: the pseudo-legendaries are exactly those Pokémon which are not actually legendary or mega-evolutions and have a base stat total of six hundred. No Pokémon besides the eight listed pseudo-legendaries meets this criterion, and so the requirement of a three-stage evolution line and 1250000 experience at level 100 seem redundant to me. I don't know if these redundant criteria should be removed and simply mentioned as common traits all current ones share, or if there is some good reason to keep them.

Note also that the requirements given already, without specifying that mega evolutions don't count as pseudo-legendaries, would make Mega Alakazam and Mega Gengar be pseudo-legendaries. Alternatively, if mega evolution counts as an evolution stage for the "has a three-stage evolution line" requirement, Mega Scizor and Mega Houndour count as pseudo-legendaries. At the very least, "is not a mega evolution" should be added to the criteria.

==About Salamence and Hydreigon==
Should we list that J has a Salamence, and that Cameron has a Hydreigon? Crum Mum 01:48, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

== ''The term originates from the prefix pseudo-, which means "false".'' ==

Why does the lead of this article go out of its way to explain a common English word? I mean, I know Pokemon is targeted at children, and young children may not be familiar with ''pseudo-'', but isn't its meaning obvious from context anyway?

I think it would be best to just remove this sentence, but if not then it should be combined with the following sentence to read something like

''The term combines the prefix ''pseudo-'', which means "false", with ''[[Legendary Pokémon]]'', due to their being more powerful than most other non-Legendary Pokémon and therefore being considered closer to Legendary Pokémon.''

This would eliminate the inaccurate use of "originate" to give the actual etymology. The term doesn't originate from the prefix ''pseudo-''; it originates as a combination of ''pseudo-'' with ''Legendary Pokémon'', <del>and the use of a Japanese term in the first sentence implies it actually originates as a translation from Japanese</del>. (If anyone wants to know why I'm being so pedantic about the meanings of words, it's because I can't edit the page directly and need to be extremely specific about my thinking so that if someone proxies for me they know exactly what they are doing.)

I was thinking that we should add a trivia point about Metagross and Goodra, specifically they're the only two pseudos that don't have a 4x weakness (Dragonite, Salamence and Garchamp have 4x weakness to Ice, Hydreigon and Kommo-o to Fairy, and Tyranitar to Fighting). The point would just say "Metagross and Goodra are the only two pseudo-legendary pokémon that are not 4x weak to a type." Or something like that. Just a thought :/

:::I would like to say that my understanding of a type-immunity meant an immunity to the elemental typing of attacks(e.g. fire, water) rather than immunity to certain FORM of attacks (e.g. soundbased, ball/bomb based) which Kommo-o CAN have via Bulletproof/Soundproof.
:::I know Goodra doesn't always have one due to being entirely dependant on the ability Sap Sipper which it doesn't always have but I saw it as with the case of Kommo-o, its Dragon/Fighting typing doesn't grant it any immunities under any circumstances which I thought that the sentence was telling me.
::: So basically I was confused as I believed that the sentence meant that Kommo-o not always having a type immunity meaning that only in some situations does a Kommo-o have the potential to have a type immunity.
:::Sorry if this sounds obnoxious but I just really wanted to say how I viewed the sentence to clear a few things up based on Kommo-o not always having a type immunity.

I know the staff are likely incredibly busy and this isn't top priority at the moment, however, with all the Pokemon's stats and data out, I believe it is well established by now that Dragapult is the Generation VIII pseudo-legendary. Based on all the data surrounding it, everything lines up:

- Dragapult's BST is 600

- It is part of a three-stage evolutionary line

- The entire line has a catch rate of 45 (Dreepy, Drakloak, and Dragapult all have a catch rate of 45)

- It is in the Slow EXP group

- It requires 40 egg cycles to hatch a Dreepy

Just bringing this up for staff to assess. I won't push anyone to get this updated immediately, but bringing this up and if anyone in the staff has objections based on assessment, feel free to discuss them.

Because of Gen VIII introducing the next pseudo-legendary Pokémon, some of the facts need to be updated.
*First, Dragapult is now the tallest pseudo-legendary Pokémon with a height of 9'10", not Dragonite or Tyranitar.
*Second, Dragapult now has the lowest base Special Defense with 75, not Salamence with 80.
*Third, Dragapult is now the pseudo-legendary Pokémon with the highest base Speed stat, not Garchomp with 102.
*Fourth, Dragapult is now the lightest pseudo-legendary Pokémon with 110.2 lbs., not Kommo-o with 172.4 lbs.
So it would be great if someone could update them. --[[User:TotallyTob|'''T'''otally'''T'''ob]] 03:17, 21 January 2020 (UTC)
:I've updated the trivia accordingly. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:17, 21 January 2020 (UTC)

== Outdated information ==

In the lede, the article states that "Some fans omit the need to have 1,250,000 experience at level 100 from their definition, although this has no effect on the Pokémon that are in the group."

It's no longer true that this doesn't affect group membership, since [[Alakazam (Pokémon)#Generation_VII|Alakazam]] has a three-stage evolutionary line and as of gen VII has a base stat total of 600; the only thing keeping it out of the pseudolegendaries by the definition this article presents is that it's in the medium-slow experience group instead of the slow one.

--[[User:Felthry|Felthry]] ([[User talk:Felthry|talk]]) 17:15, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
:Effectively, the fact that the first official acknowledgement of this group we know about was in a line of merchandise named ''Late Bloomers'' suggests that the main traits of this group, beside the high power due to the 600 base stats total, are the slow leveling up and late evolution.—[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 18:20, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

== Base Stat Averages (Update) ==
The BST averages are a bit out of date as they don't account for Dragapult now having joined the pattern. They should be updated to

 HP: 91 
 Attack: 122.56 
 Defense: 96.67 
 Special Attack: 101.67 
 Special Defense: 97.22 
 Speed: 90.89 

Side note: Since there's a brief description of every pseudo-legendary, for Dragapult, it would be worth noting that its stat spread heavily emphasizes speed (it's extremely fast) and solid offensive stats to back it up, while being frailer than the others. -[[User:ScraftyIsTheBest|ScraftyIsTheBest]] ([[User talk:ScraftyIsTheBest|talk]]) 02:33, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

== Pseudo-pseudo-legendary Pokemon ==

Pokemon that have a high base stat total that's close to, but not 600, and are evolved into at a level over 40, for example [[Flygon]], [[Haxorus]], [[Volcarona]], and [[Aggron]], should be called pseudo-pseudo-legendary. {{unsigned|GlowstoneLove}}
:That's not really a common fan term at all, let alone enough to warrant a mention... Besides, there wouldn't be any concrete "rules" for what would constitute that; the only defining characteristic between those is basically "undefinedly high BST". --[[User:Celadonkey|celadonk]] ([[User talk:Celadonkey|talk]]) 22:36, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

== Descriptions for each of the pseudo-legendaries ==

I wanted to suggest to the (junior) admins/bureaucrats edits to the descriptions for the Individual characteristics section. Bold is added text, crossed text is deleted text.

*Dragonite: [...] It has a traditionally high Attack''', average speed''' and above average stats otherwise. '''Its hidden Ability is Multiscale, which further bolsters its respectable bulk.'''

*Tyranitar: [...] Tyranitar sacrifices Speed '''and a bit of Special Attack''' to have tremendous bulk <s>and skill</s>. [...]

*Salamence: [...] Its stats are high in Attack, Special Attack, and Speed, while comparatively low '''(but nevertheless respectable)''' in both Defense stats. '''It has the Intimidate Ability, allowing it to take physical attacks more easily.'''

*Goodra: Unlike the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon, Goodra is <s>mainly defensive</s> '''more defensive-oriented'''. '''This can be reflected on its stats (with its Special Defense being much higher than its Attack and Special Attack, which are somewhat similar), as well as its Abilities, all of which have some sort of defensive utility.''' <s>Its Attack and Special Attack are very similar.</s> '''However, it focuses slightly more on Special Attack and has a more versatile selection of special attacks'''. <s>It has the lowest base Attack of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon.</s> (move this fact to a bullet point)

*Kommo-o: Kommo-o has mostly well-rounded stats <s>and</s>''', though''' it is slightly more defensive than offensive. '''Its offensive stats almost mirror those of Goodra, with somewhat similar Attack and Special Attack, though it focuses slightly more on Attack and has a more versatile selection of physical attacks.'''

*Dragapult: '''Dragapult, much like Salamence, has a higher focus on attacking prowess, though it sacrifices physical Attack and overall bulk for significantly higher Speed. This makes it more of a glass cannon compared to the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon.'''

== Mega Evolutions ==

Could somebody add a table for the base stats and artwork for the Mega Evolved Pseudo-Legendaries similar to the table of their base forms on this page? I did a similar thing on the [[Primal Reversion]] page last month but for whatever reason don't have the clearance on this page. [[User:Alolan Ninetales|Alolan Ninetales]] ([[User talk:Alolan Ninetales|talk]]) 06:52, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

== Better tables ==

With the introduction of [[Dragapult]], the section "[[Pseudo-legendary Pokémon#List of pseudo-legendary Pokémon|List of pseudo-legendary Pokémon]]" is now broken because it has too many elements side-by-side, creating a horizontal scrollbar even on desktop. I [[User:Lakelimbo/Grids#Side-by-side elements|made this on my userpage]] without using tables inside tables and it doesn't break the screen boundaries (plus it's somewhat responsive). Could someone add this on the page (I can't edit myself)? — [[User:Lakelimbo|'''Lake'''limbo]] ([[User talk:Lakelimbo|talk]]) 20:12, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
:For what it's worth, it looks fine on my end, but I can imagine it being weird on other devices. I think it's more indicative of a deeper problem though... (assumedly) further generations will add more and more pseudo legendaries, adding more and more entries to this table, as well as the base stat table below that. Eventually we'll need to shift to something pretty different from what's already here, and I think it's worth starting the conversation now.

:Just to put it out there, but I'd be perfectly fine with eschewing tables entirely for what is essentially a glorified list. --[[User:Celadonkey|celadonk]] ([[User talk:Celadonkey|talk]]) 21:04, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
::I like the upper tables, they just could be divided into two lines (although double boldness on the names is annoying). The bottom table with stats will not fit on my screen with the next pseudo.--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|Rocket]] [[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|Grunt]]''' 21:12, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
:::I think that grid layout makes the entries a bit too wide. I've changed this page to just use <code>float: left</code> instead of an outer table, which should fix the key issue with it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 15:01, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
::::Oh it's alright, I made them wider just to have 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom (on an average screen size). It's also possible to define <code>grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(250px, auto))</code> to ~167px if <code>float</code> some day becomes problematic/deprecated. — [[User:Lakelimbo|'''Lake'''limbo]] ([[User talk:Lakelimbo|talk]]) 21:23, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

== A few things worth adding ==

It says that Garchomp and Kommo-o are the only pseudo lines not to have a base friendship of 35. As of Generation VIII, this is no longer true, as Dragapult and its evolutionary relatives have the normal base friendship of 50, and thus joins Garchomp and Kommo-o in this regard.

Next, there likely needs to be a brief one-liner for Dragapult describing its stat build like with the other pseudo-legendaries. Something like "Dragapult is unique in that it trades out on bulk to instead focus on being fast and offensive, having extremely high Speed, as well as good Attack and Special Attack". Something to describe its stats like has been done for previous pseudo-legendaries, namely in that it's extremely fast but is also less defensive than other pseudo-legendaries, if anyone thinks they can articulate that better that would be useful as well.

And as for the Trainer/users section, Goodra is used by Raihan in the Champion Cup matches as well as the Galarian Star Tournament. Kommo-o is also used by Mustard in his final match as well as in subsequent rematches and the Galarian Star Tournament.[[User:ScraftyIsTheBest|ScraftyIsTheBest]] ([[User talk:ScraftyIsTheBest|talk]]) 01:44, 6 June 2021 (UTC)

== Archaludon ==

So GameFreak broke a pattern, as they are wont to do, and as a result for the first time ever we have a Pokémon in which there are legitimate debates as to whether or not it is a pseudo-legendary. Archaludon has all of the traits typically associated with pseudo-legendaries besides being three-stage, so there's now debate as to whether that aspect is enough to qualify something as pseudo-legendary. As pseudo-legendary is a fan term, I don't think this article should express a strong stance on whether or not Archaludon counts as one; it should instead express its disputed status and the arguments for and against. [[User:Biblical Bambi|Biblical Bambi]] ([[User talk:Biblical Bambi|talk]]) 00:40, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
:The lede for this article lists three criteria for being a pseudo-legendary:
:* Base Stat Total of 600,
:* Part of a three-stage evolutionary line, and
:* Part of the Slow experience group
:As Archaludon only fits one of these, what would be the arguments for including it on this list? -[[User:Minibug|Minibug]] ([[User talk:Minibug|talk]]) 00:54, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
::We already mentioned Archaludon on the trivia section as "Pokémon that fans think are pseudos but not really" (with other pseudo-pseudos like Flygon and Haxorus).

:::The 600 BST is probably the most important part. The whole point of the term "pseudo-legendary" was in reference to the high BST that was otherwise restricted to legendaries. Also, nobody argues that Haxorus or Flygon are considered pseudos while there are many who consider Archaludon to be one. [[User:Biblical Bambi|Biblical Bambi]] ([[User talk:Biblical Bambi|talk]]) 04:07, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
::::The original term is japanese, and the japanese pokémon comunity, is currently considering Archaludon a pesudo-legendary, as you can check here (https://wiki.xn--rckteqa2e.com/wiki/600%E6%97%8F); (https://dic.pixiv.net/a/600%E6%97%8F); (https://appmedia.jp/pokemon_sv/76221415), the main reason for this is that the only strong criteria for the group is the 600 bst, the other 2 are just common things, and the japanese comunity only focus in the main criteria i belive. 19:33, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
:::::I also think this page could need some work in that regard. Older versions of this page have mentioned that things like the Slow Exp group aren't always included in all definitions of pseudo-legendaries. As it stands now things like ''Pseudo-legendary Pokémon (Japanese: 600族 600 club)'' would have to be changed if the policy is to abide to the strict definition given here as it would mean a break with the Japanese definition. [[User:Petrichor|Petrichor]] ([[User talk:Petrichor|talk]]) 10:44, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
::::::Japanese fanon isn't inherently more correct than English fanon. The only official acknowledgement uses a phrase translated as "late bloomers," which alludes to the shared attributes other than BST. Archaludon is only the second stage in its family, levels up at a medium fast rate, and is evolved through the use of an item; it is not a "late bloomer" in either the colloquial or archetypal interpretation of the phrase. --[[User:Apopheniac|Apopheniac]] ([[User talk:Apopheniac|talk]]) 16:33, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
::::::I agree. My main point was mainly to highlight that the definition of pseudo-legendary isn't as clear-cut as some people above made it out to be, given that it started as a fan term (but the grouping has been acknowledged by TPC as you said). This page also had a bunch of other requirements listed in the past that had to be removed when they no longer were true. I would prefer if the page better reflected that the definition of pseudo-legendary isn't as set in stone as the page makes it out to be. There are plenty of English speakers who also only consider the BST requirement and it is weird of Bulbapedia to try to take ownership of the term as it stands. But regardless, if the three requirements will stand absolute in this article then it is objectively wrong to put ''Pseudo-legendary Pokémon (Japanese: 600族 600 club)'' at the start of the title since those two are no longer interchangeable.

== Individual characteristics ==

This page currently has two trivia sections: One named "Trivia" in the usual place, and one named "Individual characteristics" near the top of the page which covers all of the Pokémon-specific trivia. I think there are two reasonable approaches to dealing with this duplication:
#Just move all of the trivia to the Trivia section.
#Delete the Pokémon-specific trivia from this page, and cover that on the Pokémon's own pages instead.
The first option does result in the Trivia section on this page becoming very large, but it's just reflecting the reality of the state of the page (that it's substantially composed of trivia). That option is also my preference, however. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 09:13, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
:There has been a general shift towards trying to move trivia up in to the body of articles where possible, and there are definitely cases where I think this is good and appropriate. However, in this case, I think the result is just putting lipstick on a pig. It's still trivia even by another name, except now it's just taking up space in the body of the article instead of being situated out of the way at the bottom. So yeah, I agree that moving it back down to the Trivia section would likely be more ideal, perhaps keeping it as an "Individual characteristics" subsection to keep the Trivia at least somewhat organized.

== Move to "Powerhouse Pokémon" ==

Uh oh, it's that time again, fellow first partners!

The header for the [https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/en/page/235.html upcoming psuedo-legendary Mass Outbreak event] refers to the event as "Challenge '''Powerhouse Pokémon'''!". The [https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/ja/page/235.html Japanese equivalent] of the term is '''強力なポケモンたち''' (''Powerful Pokémon''). Previous uses include [https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1773032243633532993?t=Ag-AmpOKmgpvBnCTXFWd8g&s=19 two] [https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1798043074683437474?t=64WZ1tFxNH2-Yr-S6P5sDA&s=19 tweets] and the "[https://www.pokemoncenter.com/search/powerhouse Powerhouse Pokémon]" merch line.

A potential counter argument is that the term is too broad and has been used in the past to refer to non-psuedos - see [https://unite.pokemon.com/en-us/news/mamoswine-mashes-its-way-into-pokemon-unite/ this UNITE blog post] on Mamoswine that uses the term, for example. However, I think there's a case to make that as a recent term, it makes sense that there's unrelated uses of it before it started being used for psuedo-legendaries, just as there are certainly uses of "partner" prior to the modern definition of that term. Would love to see some discussion on this :) [[User:Meeper12346|Meeper12346]] ([[User talk:Meeper12346|talk]]) 05:21, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
:I don't think it's a good idea, personally. "Pseudolegendary" is the most well-known term for the group and the one people use, while "Powerhouse Pokémon" in return sounds too broad. You could call a Scizor a powerhouse Pokémon, if you so desired, but it's not a pseudo. At least with first partner Pokémon, you couldn't really make the argument that the term is too vague, y'know?
:[[User:Buwbasaur|Buwbasaur]] ([[User talk:Buwbasaur|talk]])
::Personally, I've always thought "pseudo-legendary" is an awful term, it doesn't really hint at any of the traits that define the group but instead implies a connection to Legendary Pokémon that doesn't really exist. At best it hints that they're powerful like a lot of Legendaries are, but "powerhouse Pokémon" gets that across much more obviously and without relying on the term "Legendary", which doesn't really mean "powerful" given the existence of Pokémon like Cosmog. I doubt you'd be able to guess which Pokémon "pseudo-legendary" refers to if you didn't already know. We should probably wait for at least a couple more official sources to use the term "powerhouse Pokémon" so we can be sure it's intended as an official name for the group, but once we are sure, I'd be down to rename the page. [[User:Hewer|Hewer]] ([[User talk:Hewer|talk]]) 14:39, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
:::I can't see how 'powerhouse Pokemon' is any less vague than 'pseudo-legendary'. Yes, there are pseudos or even normal Pokemon with greater competitive play than some legendaries, but the general idea of a legendary in most people's mind is stuff like Mewtwo, Dialga, whatever: incredibly strong Pokémon with an air of mystique surrounding them. The existence of Magikarp isn't gonna cancel out Gyarados. 'Powerhouse' basically just means 'strong', so it's infinitely more useless.
:::There's also the plain issue of colloquial confusion. The people who know they're sorted in a group already call them pseudolegendaries, so they're gonna refer to them as such. A sudden change to powerhouse Pokémon will just be bizarre.
:::[[User:Buwbasaur|Buwbasaur]] ([[User talk:Buwbasaur|talk]])
::::Not sure I follow this argument - you suggest that "pseudo-legendary" would be taken to mean "strong", then say that "powerhouse" is useless because it just means "strong". Even if "powerhouse" doesn't narrow it down much more than "pseudo-legendary", no name defines exactly what's in the group all by itself unless we're gonna start calling them "600-base-stat-total-three-stage-evolution Pokémon", so no term we use will be totally free of ambiguity. "Powerhouse" I find to be much better in that regard than "pseudo-legendary", which is supposed to get across the same thing (that they're powerful) but does so in a much more long-winded and misleading way by implying that Legendaries are relevant to the group. "Legendary" is generally more of a lore term that refers to a very diverse grouping of Pokémon with little in common besides being special and important to some degree, very much unlike "pseudo-legendary", a grouping based on very specific criteria that thus has much more similarity between each member. The two groups have nothing connecting them, contrary to what the "pseudo-legendary" name would have you believe. [[User:Hewer|Hewer]] ([[User talk:Hewer|talk]]) 10:45, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
::::: Pseudo-legendary is not as broad as Powerhouse because it is a specific term. Powerhouse JUST means 'strong'. It is not a specific term that applies to a specific group. Anyone can use 'powerhouse' to refer to any strong Pokemon. Nobody is gonna call Heracross a pseudolegendary, though.
::::: Regardless, though, this shouldn't be purely a contest of 'which one is better'. People are much more familiar with the term pseudo-legendary, if they know it refers to a group at all. The term has a more common usage and predates 'powerhouse' in reference to the group by a wide margin, so I think grandfather clause should ultimately trump official word for both clarity and to avoid confusion.

:::::I've also always been bothered by the term "pseudo Legendary". Powerhouse is vague too, but at least it's not misleading. Pseudo Legendary is also a fandom term, whereas starter was at one point official before being replaced by another official term, "first partner". iirc there was never an "official" term for pseudo legendaries, so I think the official term takes precedent. That being said, powerhouse hasn't yet seen a lot of useage in official media. So I say we wait until it does and then rename + redirect from pseudo legendary.

:::::: Yeah, but the term "powerhouse" can be referred to any dominant Pokémon. Like, if a Mon starts sweeping the other team though boosted stats, moves, or anything similar, they can be considered a "powerhouse" simply because of their threat level. Pseudo-legendaries refer to Pokémon that are somewhat rare and not common to find, game-wise and anime lore-wise. I think that's why the term Pseudo-legendaries works better. Because it makes those Pokémon who are already rare and difficult to find/see even more special. It does make sense. Like, game-wise and anime lore-wise, you see people walking around with Pokémon like Bidoof, Roselia, or even some fully-evolved ones like Infernape and Blastoise. But you don't see people in both settings walking around a big-a** Dragonite around. Or a Salamence that's big enough someone can ride on their back.

:::::::I don't think I agree with this, the pseudo-legendaries don't really get much special treatment distinct from other Pokémon in official stuff (the fact it took until now to even have a solid contender for an official name for the group demonstrates that). The thing that defines the group is nothing to do with how rare they are (I'd argue they're probably not that much rarer than a lot of regular Pokémon), the main thing that connects them is their strength, which is something that "powerhouse" gets across nicely. The thing that Legendaries have in common isn't that they're powerful, it's that they're in some way special, usually from a lore perspective. If I wasn't already familiar with the term "pseudo-legendary", I'd probably sooner think it referred to something like Rotom, Gimmighoul, Ultra Beasts, Paradox Pokémon, etc., Pokémon that are also sometimes treated as special and distinct, not just this group of standard Pokémon that happen to be among the strongest (again, [[Cosmog (Pokémon)|not all Legendaries are strong]]).

:I understand and respect the reason for changing the name, but I personally believe that the new name, "Powerhouse", is informal and vague compared to the name "pseudo-Legendary".

However, powerhouse seems to refers to anything in the line. It's not like the starter case where they were the same thing under a different term.

[[User:System Error|System Error]] ([[User talk:System Error|talk]])

Nearly two years later, I wanted to revisit this topic as additional pieces of evidence in favor of Powerhouse Pokémon as a term have cropped up:
* Firstly, a [https://x.com/Pokemon/status/1899872310951309693 Tweet from @Pokemon] promoting the OMOCAT Pokémon Center drop: "''Rep your favorite '''Powerhouse Pokémon''' with our new @_omocat drop from Pokémon Center featuring apparel and accessories 💥''". This is an extremely notable piece of evidence due to the capitalization; previous usage of this term had been in title case or written out as "powerhouse Pokémon", making it potentially ambiguous if the use of "powerhouse" is as a defined term or if the word is simply used as an adjective.
* Secondly, a [https://www.emailinspire.com/pokemon/new-supercute-powerhouse-plush Pokémon Center newsletter] promoting [[Pokémon Dolls (plush)|Pokémon Dolls]] of Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence and Garchomp describes them as "'''Powerhouse Pokémon''' Dolls".
* Finally, a [https://www.pokemon.com/us/news/pokemon-center-2025-holiday-exclusives-now-available Pokemon.com news post] includes the following passage: "''This luxurious locomotive features a plethora of Pokémon, from Pikachu, Eevee, and Snorlax, to '''Powerhouse Pokémon''' like Metagross, Garchomp, and Goodra—plus the first partner Pokémon from Paldea!''". Disregarding how funny it is to have both "Powerhouse Pokémon" and "first partner Pokémon" in the same sentence for a moment, this is yet another notable - arguably more credible - instance of the term being used with proper capitalization outside of title case.

At this point, it's extremely apparent to me that Powerhouse Pokémon is an official, commonly used term in promotional material which refers to the grouping formerly known as "pseudo-legendary Pokémon" (though, of course, if anyone feels otherwise, I encourage you to state your case). The only real mystery left is if this new term applies to pre-Evolutions, as "pseudo-legendary Pokémon" specifically refers to the final Evolutions; if Powerhouse Pokémon does indeed also include the pre-Evolutions in the grouping, it is not completely interchangable, as pointed out by Minibug earlier. However, the only real evidence I can find of this is the [https://sv-news.pokemon.co.jp/en/page/235.html original Poké Portal News post] which served as the first notable use of the term. My view is simply that a Mass Outbreak event of these fully-evolved Pokémon would be unusual, given that these Pokémon were later released as 7★ Tera Raid events, and thus the pre-Evolutions of these Pokémon were only included because they eventually evolve into Powerhouse Pokémon, as this seems to be a one-off outlier otherwise. Merchandise marketed with the term Powerhouse Pokémon, such as [https://www.pokemoncenter.com/product/705E12375/pokemon-tcg-powerhouse-pokemon-playmat this Powerhouse Pokémon playmat], either exclusively feature the final Evolutions, or feature the final Evolutions alongside their pre-Evolutions (and notably always exclude Archaludon).

To help guide discussion in the right direction, the question being raised here isn't which of these two terms we ''like'' better. Bulbapedia aims to use the official terminology when possible - see the [[Talk:First_partner_Pokémon/Archive_1#Suggested_move|talk page discussion on first partner Pokémon]] for precedent on this topic. The main discussion points should instead be whether or not the term has received enough usage as of present to qualify as the official term for this group and warrant a move, and whether or not the term is entirely interchangeable with "pseudo-legendary Pokémon".

I propose that this article should be split into Powerhouse Pokémon instead. It is currently unclear which Pokémon are included in the group, other than the pre-Gen 4 ones plus Goodra and their pre-evolutions. Therefore, this is unlike the other major moves Bulbapedia has done, because on all of those, we knew TPCi was referring to the concept that we had made a page for. Perhaps they will decide to include Slaking or Archaludon’s line, or exclude Hydreigon, for example. Or maybe we could ask them? I heard about someone doing that in regard to the Base Stats issue, so maybe we need to wait for a response?

== Why do we continue to exclude Archaludon? ==

The answer is simple: Archaludon, of course, does not meet two of the three conditions for being Pseudo-Legendary (which I'll abbreviate to "PL" here). Archaludon does, however, meet what we can pretty much all agree is the most important of these three conditions: having a BST of 600. I feel that the current definition for PL that Bulbapedia uses does not accurately reflect how the term is used by fans, nor does it reflect the pattern Game Freak appears to be following. As such, I propose changing the definition in the following way: removing the condition that the Pokemon have 1,250,000 exp at level 100 and changing the condition that the Pokemon be the final stage of a three-stage line to instead be something along the lines of "The Pokémon is not Legendary, Mythical, Ultra Beast, or Paradox". This would make a PL Pokemon be a "A non-Legendary, non-Mythical, non-Ultra Beast, non-Paradox Pokémon with a base stat total of exactly 600 (excluding Mega Evolution and other temporary form changes)."

The two conditions that I question are what I'll refer to as the "three-stage" condition and the "1,250,000 exp" condition. Of these two, I question the latter most strongly. To me, it really does not seem like it should be a CONDITION for inclusion in the PL group. It really seems like a coincidence, or at least otherwise incidental to what really matters: a BST of 600. Yes, all of the Pokemon we can agree are PL do share the "1,250,000 exp" trait, however, as another user noted in another topic on this talk page, all PL Pokemon (except Archaludon) have 40 Egg Cycles. Both of these seem arbitrary, and as previously stated, either coincidental or incidental. They both seem equally plausible as conditions, and it feels like they should either both be conditions or neither should be. I personally find both to be implausible, and I feel neither should be strict CONDITIONS for being PL; they feel like properties that should be relegated to the trivia.

I was curious about how the "1,250,000 exp" condition developed and why it even became fanon in the first place. My first guess was "maybe all Legendary Pokemon also have the 1,250,000 exp property and so the PLs also having it make them more 'legendary'", except Mew, Celebi, and Shaymin are in the Medium Slow exp group rather than Slow. I subsequently went digging to try and find the answer, it seems to have its origin in Bulbapedia itself, being randomly added back in 2011. It could possibly have origins prior to that, but if it did I couldn't find any. The second version of this article, uploaded 4 minutes after the article's original creation back in November of 2007, had the line "they require a lot of experience to level up", which is where I hypothesize the "1,250,000 exp" condition actually spawned from. The rationale I found for keeping the condition (coming from the talk page in November, 2011) was essentially that "it's part of the pattern, so it should be part of the definition"; I find this silly, partially because it's inconsistent with the exclusion of a "40 egg cycles" condition, but also because it doesn't align with my philosophy for having a definition consisting of conditions. Like, we could easily have a definition for PL that was just "PLs are Dragonite, Tyranitar..." and call it a day, simply updating the definition whenever a new Pokemon we determined fit the "PL vibes" released. If we're to have a definition with conditions, I feel that the definition should be versatile enough to include any Pokemon we would deem PL whilst also being minimal in its number of conditions. That is, the highest priority is having the fewest number of conditions that can include current and future PL Pokemon, followed by having those conditions being specific and relevant but still general. I also feel that these conditions should be malleable, so that they can evolve as our understanding of the term evolves. The "1,250,000 exp" condition does nothing: if we remove it, the list of PL Pokemon does not change (this is unlike the "three-stage" condition, whose removal suddenly adds Pokemon like Manaphy to the list of PL Pokemon due to there being no "is not a legendary" condition). I therefore do not think we should keep it around. However, I also don't think it should have ever been included in the list of conditions, and in a moment I will ask you to consider a situation where it wasn't.

The "three-stage" condition, to me, is a condition for being PL which was reasonable to evolve. Even if technically "has BST of 600 and isn't legendary/mythical/etc." would've worked just fine (prior to Archaludon), it seemed reasonable that Game Freak would never add a non-legendary with a BST of 600 that wasn't three-stage. In fact, prior to Archaludon I didn't really have any problems with this condition, only the "1,250,000 exp" condition. However, I feel that Archaludon itself demonstrates why this condition has issues. Believe it or not, Bulbapedia's PL definition used to have four conditions. In fact, this fourth condition predated both the "1,250,000 exp" condition AND "600 BST" condition! Yes, this fourth condition--which no longer is a condition--predates the most important contemporary condition. This fourth condition was being dual-typed. This "two types" condition was present in the article from the aforementioned second version, and stuck around until 2011 when it was removed along with the "1,250,000 exp" condition. Both conditions were added back and removed independently multiple times, until eventually one of them was killed off, leaving the other as a survivor. Specifically, the release of Goodra sealed the fate of the "two types" condition; a Pokemon with a BST of 600 with only a single type served as a counter example against the "two types" condition, and so it was left to rot. Now, imagine a scenario where the "1,250,000 exp" condition was never included in the PL definition, and so when the Indigo Disk released the PL definition was simply "three-stage Pokemon with a BST of 600 (when not Mega Evolved)". In this scenario, I imagine Archaludon's exclusion on the basis of being two-stage would be brought into question. While we wouldn't have expected Game Freak to add a non-legendary with a BST of 600 that wasn't three-stage, Archaludon existed nonetheless. This directly parallels the situation with Goodra. And just as Goodra killed the "two types" condition, I feel that Archaludon should be allowed to kill the "three-stage" condition. Or, more accurately, we would replace the "three-stage" condition. While we can simply remove the "1,250,000 exp" condition, the "three-stage" condition is a dam holding back legendary Pokemon, so we would need to replace it with a condition of "not being Legendary, Mythical, UB, Paradox, etc.". Frankly, I find it strange that we don't have that as a condition anyways: If Game Freak for *some reason* gives, say, Urshifu or Manaphy an evolution with a BST of 600, then suddenly this evolution is PL, which we can probably all agree is ridiculous.

Another thing is that we know Game Freak specifically chose to give Archaludon a BST of 600. We can also observe a pattern beginning with Dragonite and including at least up to Baxcalibur wherein non-Legendary Pokemon are given BSTs of exactly 600, which we can be all but certain is an intentional pattern on the part of Game Freak, although we cannot be certain what exactly their understanding of their pattern is. Since the Bulbapedia definition of PL came from observing this pattern, it seems reasonable to me that we would want the definition to align with Game Freak's intention with the pattern. To this end, I ask the following rhetorical question: "Why would Game Freak intentionally add a non-Legendary with a BST of 600 if they didn't consider it to be part of their pattern"? Like, if I was Game Freak and I was creating a pattern of non-Legendary Pokemon which had a BST of 600 + some other properties (such as, perhaps, being three-stage), then I would not add a non-Legendary Pokemon with a BST of 600. Thus, when designing Archaludon I wouldn't have given it a BST of 600. If I still wanted it to be strong then I would've given it, say, a BST of 590, but I would not do 600. Yet Game Freak gave Archaludon a BST of 600. I can only think of three reasons why they would do this. 1) they didn't think it was an issue that Archaludon had a BST of 600 despite the pattern. This isn't impossible, although as I've already explained I do not think this would've made sense for them to do, so I find this unlikely. 2) Maybe the pattern has nothing to do with having a BST of 600. For instance, the list of fully-evolved Pokemon in the Slow exp group and with 40 egg cycles is pretty small, hitting not only all of the PLs but also many strong Pokemon "commonly mistaken as PL" such as Snorlax, Volcarona, Haxorus, and Palafin (pretty interesting list, actually. I'm not actually entirely against the proposition that this is intentional, although the fan term "PL" relating to a BST of 600 is still useful even in such a case). Maybe there's not even a pattern. Maybe Game Freak just kinda likes giving dragon type Pokemon a BST of 600, and then they gave Tyranitar and Metagross a BST of 600 just 'cause they wanted them to be strong. This doesn't seem completely implausible. However, even in such a case, the term "PL" is still useful as a fan term. In fact, in such a case there is no reason to include, say, a "1,250,000 exp" condition on the basis of "all of the PL Pokemon have it, therefore it should be a condition". In this second case, the only reason I can think to exclude Archaludon from being PL is not thinking it fits the vibe of PL, which to me would be a very strange take indeed. 3) Archaludon follows Game Freak's understanding of the pattern, and it was not an issue that it was two-stage and didn't have the "1,250,000 exp" property. This is what I expect to be the correct case. In fact, I actually do think that previous PL Pokemon all having "1,250,000 exp" and 40 egg cycles and being three-stage and whatever was intentional. However, I don't think Game Freak had Archaludon in mind when they created Duraludon, and so Archaludon being in the Medium Fast exp group and having only 30 egg cycles was carried over from a Pokemon they didn't expect to get an evolution that they'd add to the 600 BST pattern. However, I expect that they reasoned that the important property was having a BST of 600, and that there wasn't an issue that they couldn't do the things which they normally do to Pokemon following this pattern to Archaludon.

I think the reason I feel so strongly about this is the fact Archaludon meets the most important PL condition (600 BST) and very much fits the vibes of "PL", even more so than Pokemon like Flygon (which, fun fact, was listed as a PL Pokemon in the original versions of the PL article because the 600 BST condition was added an entire 37 days after the initial article's creation). I can very much imagine a situation like the following: [A Pokemon fan who didn't really engage with gen 9 asks a friend what their favorite Pokemon is. The friend pulls up a picture of Archaludon on their phone, saying "This guy, Archaludon, is my favorite. I like it because it's cool and is pretty strong. It has a base stat total of 600". The fan replies "oh cool, so it's a pseudo-legendary?"] It really doesn't seem all that galarian farfetch'd. Because when people think of PL Pokemon, they're almost certainly thinking most directly about how they're strong and indirectly about how they have a BST of 600. Right? I don't have any sort of proof for this, but feels very implausible that this wouldn't be the case.

Given all that I've said here, I'll restate my question(s): Why has Bulbapedia's definition for PL maintained its inertia and stuck with its three conditions? Why haven't we changed it? Why do we continue to exclude Archaludon?

To be clear, I am proposing we change the definition of PL. However, I am also open to being "proven wrong" or "shown the error of my ways" or whatever. In fact, while I am strongly in favor of changing the conditions and would be thrilled if it got changed, I don't expect that to end up happening. But if it doesn't, I still want there to be some concrete reason as to WHY we aren't. I couldn't find some sort of official ruling on this matter, yet I feel like I somewhat frequently see people question Archaludon's exclusion. And so I come as some sort of self-appointed "woman of the people" to either seek an explanation or be a catalyst for change.

Apologies for the length of this comment. I recognize that it is somewhat long for a talk page, but I felt the issue warranted a full explanation. [[User:Archieludon|Archieludon]] ([[User talk:Archieludon|talk]]) 06:42, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

:Appreciate the level of thought, research, and analysis you've put in here. I do want to challenge some assumptions made, however.
:The main thing that catches my attention is the framing of Archaludon as an update to the pattern rather than a clear exception that doesn't quite fit. The other pseudo-legendaries have far more in common with each other than they do with Archaludon. I think it's reasonable to see how Archaludon may not be part of the group, with the shared 600 BST not being quite enough to justify its inclusion. Archaludon has also never been officially shown together with the other pseudo-legendaries. It may have been introduced too recently to draw too many conclusions there, but it indicates to me it might be better to wait before abandoning so much of the historic criteria serving as the foundation of this grouping.
:In the case of Goodra, it broke one historical characteristic of the group by being monotype, but it still shares nearly every other trait traditionally associated with pseudo-legendaries: a three-stage line, a Slow growth rate, a base stat total of 600, and various other similarities. In that case, removing the dual-type criterion made sense because Goodra still overwhelmingly aligned with the rest of the group.
:Archaludon on the other hand does not simply differ in one respect while matching the rest of the pattern. Rather, it lacks multiple characteristics that have historically been shared by every other pseudo-legendary. While it has a base stat total of 600, it is part of a two-stage line, belongs to the Medium Fast experience group, and differs in several other ways. To me, this suggests that Archaludon is a distinct case that just so happens to share one prominent characteristic with the traditional pseudo-legendaries.
:I think this ultimately comes down to a difference in how we view the grouping itself. To me, the traditional pseudo-legendaries are defined by a broader collection of shared characteristics, of which a 600 BST is only one. Given that Archaludon diverges from that pattern in several respects, I think there needs to be stronger evidence before concluding that it belongs in the same grouping. I don't think the fact that it has a 600 BST is, by itself, sufficient reason to discard multiple long-standing criteria that have collectively defined the category for decades.
:It's also worth noting that the recent official marketable term "Late Bloomers" heavily implies that the Slow growth rate is a core aspect of this group, rather than merely incidental. The "Late Bloomers" branding appears to be built around the idea that these Pokémon take longer to reach their full potential, which is directly reflected in their growth rate. While that does not automatically make the Slow experience group a definite official criterion for pseudo-legendary Pokémon, it does suggest that it may be intentional or something they're leaning into and considering with any new additions. In any case, this indicates Archaludon's placement in a different experience group becomes ''more'' significant rather than less, so I hesitate to discard the criterion outright.
:The question ultimately is not whether Archaludon shares a particular, if important, characteristic with the traditional pseudo-legendaries, but whether it shares enough of the broader pattern to justify treating it as part of the same group. I'd lean towards no, but I think the lack of strong official evidence one way or another supports a "wait-and-see" approach here.

<div style="clear: right; float:right">__TOC__</div>
The Japanese Sword & Shield Era of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] began shortly after the worldwide release of the [[Generation VIII]] titles [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]] in November 2019. In addition to the expansions, subsets, and self-contained products distributing new cards throughout the Era, the collection also includes many other TCG paraphernalia released as part of campaigns and events. Below is a chronological list of all the items released during the Japanese Sword & Shield Era of the Trading Card Game.

==Pokémon Secret Club accessories==
A website called the '''Pokémon Secret Club''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンひみつクラブ''') was launched on July 12, 2019 to promote the release of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]]. To register as a member, people were required to provide a serial code that could be obtained by pre-ordering a copy of one or both of the games. Participating retailers gave away serial code cards with an in-store pre-order, whereas digital pre-orders at participating sites sent the serial codes via email. As a member, people could take part in surveys, view teasers for various aspects of the games, and view information regarding new Pokémon. New content was added to the website periodically and a number of lotteries were held that gave away exclusive prizes to winning members:<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190714051107/https://swshmembers.pokemon.co.jp ''「ポケモンひみつクラブ」公式サイト'' | Pokémon Secret Club Official Site (archived)]</ref>
*Access to an Early Trial version of Pokémon Sword and Shield, held at a location in Tokyo on September 21, 2019, in which players could challenge [[Nessa]] at [[Hulbury Stadium]]. The application period for this lottery ran from August 9 to 22, 2019 and was limited to 140 groups of up to two people (280 people maximum).
*Access to a pre-opening event at Pokémon Center Osaka DX on September 21, 2019. Attendees received an Original Clear Card. An Original Charm was also given away with purchases of at least ¥5,000.

==Pokémon Center Shibuya Opening accessories==

==Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack 1==
Pokémon Card Gyms in Japan operate much like {{TCG|Pokémon League}}s outside Asia, in that they provide a regular opportunity for people to meet, trade, and battle. Approved Pokémon Card Gym locations are sent paraphernalia from [[The Pokémon Company]] to host meetings, including promotional card packs to distribute amongst participants in whichever way they see fit. One pack is typically given to every participant of Gym Battle events, standard tournaments open to all ages, and to every participant of New Set Battle events, age-specific tournaments that require players to use a quantity of the latest cards in their deck. More packs are usually given to the top finishers in tournaments: three for those placing first, two for those placing second, and one for those placing third. Additional packs may also be given out at other events hosted by the Pokémon Card Gym location.

The first Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack to be distributed during the Sword & Shield Era contained one out of a possible seven {{TCG|S-P Promotional cards}}, one of which was an exclusive {{TCG|Pokémon V}}. Each promotional card bears the Pokémon Card Gym logo. These packs were first given out upon the launch of the dual {{TCG|Sword}} and {{TCG|Shield}} expansion and continued to be distributed throughout December 2019, January 2020, and February 2020.

==S1 Gummy Candy==
Following the launch of the dual {{TCG|Sword}} and {{TCG|Shield}} expansion, [[Takara Tomy|Takara Tomy A.R.T.S.]] released a new wave of their gummy candies in December 2019.<ref>[https://www.takaratomy-arts.co.jp/items/item.html?n=Y107313 ''ポケモンカードゲームグミソード＆シールド「ソード」「シールド」'' | Takara Tomy A.R.T.S. product page] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20211023141403/https://www.takaratomy-arts.co.jp/items/item.html?n=Y107313 archived])</ref> This was the first dual expansion to have just one gummy product associated with it, therefore the pool of cards available were sourced from both sets. Each pack of '''Pokémon Card Game Sword & Shield Gummy: Sword & Shield''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードゲームソード＆シールドグミ「ソード」「シールド」''') contained one of 22 possible cards (11 from Sword and 11 from Shield) and two grape-flavored sweets.

==Kura Sushi Pokémon Card Game Campaign merchandise==
A collaboration between the Pokémon Trading Card Game and the Japanse revolving sushi bar chain {{wp|Kura Sushi}} began on January 8, 2021.<ref name="KuraSushi1">[https://twitter.com/mutenkurasushi/status/1347302263203766289 無添くら寿司【公式】 on Twitter] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20210107220238/https://twitter.com/mutenkurasushi/status/1347302263203766289 archived])</ref> From this date, participating restaurants had their Bikkura Pon (Japanese: ビッくらポン) prize system updated to dispense [[Poké Ball]]-themed capsules containing items based on the {{TCG|V Starter Decks}}. Every five used dishes dispensed at a table would play a short video on the touch screen for that table. Multiple different videos could be played, each of which had a randomly selected fail or victory outcome. Vidoes that ended in victory would cause a Bikkura Pon to be dispensed for that table. Possible prizes included '''Miniature Keychains''' (Japanese: '''ミニチュアキーホルダー''' ''Miniature Key Holder'') and '''''Pukupuku'' Magnets''' (Japanese: '''ぷくぷくマグネット'''). The keychains came in nine varieties, each one with a design based on the focal {{TCG|Pokémon V}} card from the V Starter Decks. The magnets utilized the same artwork but focused only on the Pokémon, coming in five varieties: {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Lucario}}, {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowbro}}, and {{p|Eevee}}. Up to January 31, Bikkura Pon could also include tickets that could be redeemed for one random V Starter Deck and an exclusive '''Kura Sushi Original Playmat''' (Japanese: '''くら寿司オリジナルプレイマット'''). The V Starter Deck and playmat set was limited to 10,000 copies.<ref name="KuraSushi1" /> The other Bikkura Pon prizes were distributed for as long as stocks lasted.

Starting January 15, three A4 clear files with designs based on Venusaur V, Incineroar V, and Wailord V cards were given also away with purchases. People who spent at least ¥2,000 plus tax at participating restaurants were given one file; people who spent at least ¥6,000 plus tax were given all three designs.

==Eevee Heroes Eeveelution Set==
The '''Eevee Heroes Eeveelution Set''' (Japanese: '''イーブイヒーローズイーブイズセット''' ''Eievui Heroes EVs Set'') was a companion product to the {{TCG|Eevee Heroes}} subset and was available from May 28, 2021.

Due to unprecedented demand, pre-orders for the set sold out in a short space of time after going live on the Pokémon Center Online.

==Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack 6==
Much like the [[#Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack 3|third pack]] in 2020, the release of the sixth Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack at participating venues was delayed as to provide sufficient time for players to take part in the previous season cycle. Official events resumed in the majority of prefectures on July 3, 2021. Packs included one of seven possible {{TCG|S-P Promotional cards}} bearing the Pokémon Card Gym logo, and were distributed at stores able to do so throughout July and August, and up to mid-September 2021. [[COVID-19 pandemic|COVID-19]] restrictions once again came into effect in several prefectures over the course of July and August and remained in place until September 12. A digital image of the pack on the Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website was green, but the physical packs were blue.

==Pokémon Japan Championships 2021 merchandise==
Much of the 2019-2020 Japanese domestic season was disrupted as a result of [[COVID-19 pandemic|COVID-19]] countermeasures, ultimately leading to the cancellation of the 2020 Pokémon Japan Championships. The 2020-2021 season was similarly affected; states of emergency in numerous prefectures led to the cessation of many events and frequent lockdown extensions threatened to halt its climax. The 2021 Pokémon Japan Championships were initially set to be held on June 12 and 13, 2021<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/2021/20210528_002961.html ''「ポケモンジャパンチャンピオンシップス2021」開催延期について'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20210620101234/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/2021/20210528_002961.html archived])</ref> at the Aichi International Exhibition Center, Tokoname but were postponed until July 17 and 18.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/2021/20210430_002867.html ''「ポケモンジャパンチャンピオンシップス2021」の最新情報を公開！'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20210716011633/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/2021/20210430_002867.html archived])</ref> Top finishers from the two [[#Champion's League 2021 merchandise|2021 Champion's League]] meetings that went ahead were given preferential entry, as were players who had accumulated a sufficient number of Championship Points (CSP) up to May 21, 2021. Others wishing to participate were required to apply through the Pokémon Card Game Players Club between June 18 and 25 and places were selected through lottery. Participants from the 2021 Champion's League meetings had an increased chance of being drawn. Results of the lottery were announced on July 2.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/2000/20000426_002916.html ''「ポケモンジャパンチャンピオンシップス2021」カードゲーム部門大会概要'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20210717231946/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/2000/20000426_002916.html archived])</ref>

More prizes were awarded to top finishers of the tournament—the top 64 players across all age divisions were given a promotional print of {{TCG ID|S-P Promo|Vitality Band|136}}; the top 64 Master League players were also given an '''Original Cap & T-shirt''' (Japanese: '''オリジナルデッキシールド''') bearing the Championships' key visual.

=="P-Lab." Project merchandise==
Various TCG-inspired items were the subject of a collaborative campaign between the Pokémon Card Game, the Japanese fashion brand Graniph, and Japanese content creator {{wp|Hajime Syacho}}. Syacho had input in several aspects of the collaboration, including the focal Pokémon—{{p|Pichu}}—and its name—"P-Lab."<ref>[https://www.graniph.com/story/story-detail/19 ''ポケモンカードゲーム×はじめしゃちょー×グラニフ！スペシャルコラボレーション『P-Lab.』の全貌公開'' | Granpih Graphic Stories: 16] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20220525040140/https://www.graniph.com/story/story-detail/19 archived])</ref> The key visual for the campaign was a representation of a Mischievous Pichu card featuring artwork by [[Akira Komayama]] and English text. This was the main facet of the '''Mischievous Pichu (P-Lab.) Collaboration T-shirt''' (Japanese: '''いたずら好きのピチュー(P-Lab.) コラボTシャツ'''), the '''Mischievous Pichu (P-Lab.) Collaboration Tote Bag''' (Japanese: '''いたずら好きのピチュー(P-Lab.) コラボトートバッグ'''), and '''Mischievous Pichu (P-Lab.) Collaboration Mug''' (Japanese: '''いたずら好きのピチュー(P-Lab.) コラボマグカップ'''). The T-shirts and mugs were available in black or white.

The '''Type Pattern (P-Lab.) Collaboration T-shirt''' (Japanese: '''タイプパターン(P-Lab.) コラボTシャツ''') features various {{TCG|Energy}} symbols and two pockets, each deep enough to hold a 60-card deck. The pocket insides feature damage counter and status marker patches, as well as a Japanese Mischievous Pichu card patch. The '''Pokémon Card Pattern (P-Lab.) Collaboration T-shirt''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードパターン(P-Lab.) コラボTシャツ''') and '''Pichu & Pokémon Card (P-Lab.) Collaboration Short-Sleeve Shirt''' (Japanese: '''ピチュー＆ポケモンカード(P-Lab.) コラボ半袖シャツ''') both feature a pattern consisting of TCG card reverse designs and Pichu silhouettes, as well as a Japanese Mischievous Pichu card patch stitched on their inside. The short-sleeve shirt also features an embroidered Pichu and green slime protruding from the chest pocket, both derived from the Mischievous Pichu card illustration. All T-shirts were available in adult or children's sizes. Other items of apparel included '''Pichu & Type Pattern (P-Lab.) Collaboration Graphic High-top Sneakers''' (Japanese: '''ピチュー＆タイプパターン(P-Lab.) コラボグラフィックハイカットスニーカー''') and a '''Pichu Face (P-Lab.) Collaboration Reversible Bucket Hat''' (Japanese: '''ピチューフェイス(P-Lab.) コラボリバーシブルバケットハット'''). The sneakers feature Energy symbols, {{i|Poké Ball}}s, splotches of green slime, and Pichu's face; the hat has two interchangeable designs—one featuring Pichu's face, the other featuring Energy symbols, Poké Balls, and splotches of green slime.

All items could be pre-ordered from the Graniph online store from May 25, 2022 and were subsequently available to purchase online and from domestic stores from May 31. Some items were also sold at Pokémon Centers and on the Pokémon Center Online. Customers who purchased at least one "P-Lab." item from Graniph stores (in-store or online) or who made an eligible purchase from participating Pokémon Centers, Pokémon Stores, or the Pokémon Center Online were given a physical {{TCG ID|S-P Promo|Mischievous Pichu|214}} {{TCG|S-P Promotional cards|promotional card}} with Japanese text.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/003384.html ''ポケモンカードジムにおける公認大会の一部再開について'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20220525195257/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/003384.html archived])</ref> These were limited to one per person and were distributed for as long as stocks lasted.

==Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack 1==
Similar to many {{TCG|Pokémon League}} locations in regions overseen by [[The Pokémon Company International]], Pokémon Card Gyms are registered stores in Japan that host casual TCG events on a regular basis. Official paraphernalia was sent to these stores by [[The Pokémon Company]], which often comprised advertisements, gameplay materials, and Promo Card Packs. These packs could be distributed amongst participants in whichever way Pokémon Card Gym organizers saw fit, though generally one pack was given to everyone competing in a Gym Battle event or a New Set Battle event. Additional packs were typically given to the top finishers in these events: three for those placing first, two for those placing second, and one for those placing third. Three packs were also given to winners of periodic {{wp|rock paper scissors}} competitions.

The first Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Packs of the Scarlet & Violet Era were distributed at events held in conjunction with the release of the {{TCG|Scarlet ex}} and {{TCG|Violet ex}} expansions on January 20, 2023.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/003790.html ''プロモカードパック第1弾、公開！'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20230120050915/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/003790.html archived])</ref> Packs were enclosed with one random card from a pool of seven {{TCG|SV-P Promotional cards}}, each of which feature the Pokémon Card Gym logo.

==Endorsed Independent Event Trainer's Pack 2023==

As with several previous Eras, the Pokémon Company provided special Endorsed Independent Event Trainer's Packs to established Endorsed Independent Event sites ready for the start of the Scarlet & Violet Era. With the release of {{TCG|Scarlet ex}} and {{TCG|Violet ex}}, these packs could be distributed by Event Organizers to participants of their events in any way they saw fit.

==Pokémon Card Game Classroom==
Pokémon Card Game Classroom (Japanese: ポケモンカードゲーム教室) events were tailored for children of elementary school age and below and served as an introduction to the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. The first events of the Scarlet & Violet Era were held in conjunction with the launch of the dual {{TCG|Scarlet ex}} and {{TCG|Violet ex}} expansion on January 20, 2023 and took place at participating Pokémon Centers across Japan. Classes were held several times per week and could be one of two formats: an "individual format", a one-on-one experience with a staff member, or "school format", an experience with multiple customers and staff members. Participants were required to be a member of the Pokémon Card Game Players Club and at least one parent or guardian was to accompany them; proof of age could also be requested prior to attending. From January 20, 2023, every child that participated in a class was given a promotional print of {{TCG ID|SV-P Promo|Eevee|33}} bearing the Pokémon Card Game Classroom logo and a beginner playmat while stocks lasted.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20230122021104/https://www.pokemon-card.com/event/pokemon_cardgame_kyoshitsu.html ''ポケモンカードゲーム教室'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website (archived)]</ref> Playmats featured a standard 2-player layout with annotations on the front and deck building tips on the reverse.

Participation prizes were updated starting April 2024. The Eevee promo card and beginner playmat were given out at pop-up Pokémon Centers, while permanent Pokémon Centers began to give away a '''Pokémon Card Game Classroom Student ID''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードゲーム教室　学生証'''). Roughly the same size as a Pokémon trading card, the front of the ID features the [[Paldea first partner Pokémon]] and foil detailing, while the reverse features three spaces to affix mini stickers. Nine mini stickers were available in total, each of which resembled a card from the {{TCG|Triplet Beat}} subset. Participants were given one {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}} mini sticker with their Student ID: either {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Sprigatito|4}}, {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Fuecoco|17}}, or {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Quaxly|27}}.

Stickers depicting Evolution cards could be earned by taking part in other scheduled events, including Pokémon Center Casual Battles with Pokémon Cards!, City Leagues in either the Junior League or Senior League age bracket, and {{TCG|Sealed format|Sealed Battles}}. Children would receive the corresponding {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Floragato|6}}, {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Crocalor|19}}, or {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Quaxwell|29}} {{TCG|Stage 1 Pokémon}} sticker by attending an eligible event after receiving their Student ID, followed by the corresponding {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Meowscarada ex|7}}, {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Skeledirge ex|20}}, or {{TCG ID|Triplet Beat|Quaquaval ex|30}} {{TCG|Stage 2 Pokémon|Stage 2}} {{TCG|Pokémon ex}} sticker by attending a subsequent eligible event. Staff would affix any mini stickers earned. Initial plans were to distribute Student IDs until March 31, 2025 and the mini stickers until May 31, 2025;<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20240712224110/https://www.pokemon-card.com/event/pokemon_cardgame_kyoshitsu.html ''ポケモンカードゲーム教室'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website (archived)]</ref> however, due to demand, the Student IDs were distributed until February 28, 2025 and the mini stickers until March 31, 2025.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/004494.html ''ポケモンカードゲーム教室（2月分）開催のお知らせ'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([http://web.archive.org/web/20250130171619/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/004494.html archived])</ref> The Eevee card distributed at pop-up Pokémon Centers was [[Eevee (SV-P Promo 198)|later updated]]<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20241209185846/https://www.pokemon-card.com/event/pokemon_cardgame_kyoshitsu.html ''ポケモンカードゲーム教室'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website (archived)]</ref> following the release of the {{TCG|Generations Start Decks}}, coinciding with the prize update in [[#Deck As Is Battle ~Get Eevee~|Deck As Is Battle events]].

==2023 Pokémon World Championships Pokémon Card Gym Sticker==
In the buildup to Japan staging [[2023 Pokémon World Championships|its first Pokémon World Championships]], a campaign began on July 1, 2023 at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues that saw the distribution of a trading card-sized commemorative sticker. For as long as stocks lasted, people were given a copy of this sticker for each Gym Battle, New Release Battle, or Deck As Is Battle event they took part in (in addition to any other prizes they would normally earn). The front of the sticker featured the 2023 Pokémon World Championships key visual, while the reverse featured a QR code for a prize lottery. People that followed the link and completed the questionnaire between August 11 and 13, 2023 were entered into a draw to win one of ten booster boxes.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/004014.html ''お店の大会に参加してポケモンWCSステッカーをゲットしよう！'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20230624163851/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/004014.html archived])</ref>

==NAKANO STYLING TANTO × Pokémon Card Game merchandise==
As part of continued promotions for the {{TCG|ex Start Decks}}, a collaborative campaign between the TCG and the NAKANO STYLING TANTO line of hair products began on August 1, 2023. Eight specially-branded hair product varieties were available at participating retailers, each of which focused on one of the {{TCG|type}}s represented by the eight standard ex Start Decks. A special Promo Card Pack was given away with the purchase of any one product, which was enclosed with a Pokémon card and a Basic Energy card of a like type. While each pair of cards was the same, the pair enclosed was random and did not correlate to the Energy symbol featured on the hair product. All cards available as part of the promotion bear a NAKANO STYLING TANTO stamp.

==Scramble Battle merchandise==
The Scramble Battle was a large-scale casual {{TCG|Standard format|Standard Regulation}} event introduced in 2024, which employed the use of competitor's smartphones to match players after games without waiting for other games to end—a format dubbed "real-time Swiss draw". [[The Pokémon Company]] would look to implement the format in future events if it trialed successfully.

The first event was held at the Ariake GYM-EX, Tokyo on March 2, 2024.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/004296.html ''スクランブルバトル、有明GYM‐EXにて3月2日（土）開催！'' | Pokémon Card Game Trainers Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20240224064523/https://www.pokemon-card.com/info/004296.html archived])</ref> People wishing to take part in this event could apply through the Pokémon Card Game Players Club. The primary acceptance period was open between February 2 and 13, 2024 and places were allocated by lottery on February 16.

==Battle Academy==
{{main|Pokémon Card Game Battle Academy (TCG)}}
The Family Pokémon Card Game line of products released during the {{TCG|Sun & Moon Family Pokémon Card Game|Sun & Moon}} and {{TCG|Sword & Shield Family Pokémon Card Game|Sword & Shield}} Eras was rebranded for its Scarlet & Violet incarnation as '''Battle Academy''' (Japanese: '''バトルアカデミー'''), much like the {{TCG|Battle Academy 2020|equivalent}} {{TCG|Battle Academy 2022|products}} available outside Asia. The core audience of the kit remained children and their families, which were catered for with the inclusion of four simple 60-card decks featuring Sprigatito ex, Pikachu ex, Lucario ex, and Greninja ex. Each set also included literature in the form of beginner's guides and a step-up guide, plus several accessories: a cardboard sheet containing damage counters and status markers, a full-size playmat, a set of four color-coded deck bands, a card tidying-up partition, three card dividers, and a damage counter case. The Battle Academy became available for general sale on March 8, 2024.

The {{TCG|Pokémon ex}} cards in these decks were Non Holfoil in contrast to those from the full-size Battle Academy.

==Make Your Pokémon Card Debut! Battle Academy Experience==
To mark the release of the {{TCG|Pokémon Card Game Battle Academy|Battle Academy and Anytime, Anywhere Battle Academy}} kits on March 8, 2024, numerous store chains held Make Your Pokémon Card Debut! Battle Academy Experience (Japanese: ポケカデビューしよう！バトルアカデミー体験会) events, which were tailored for newcomers. The first events were held at all 32 Gokurakuyu and RAKU SPA locations across Japan as part of a Pokémon Healing Bath campaign. People visiting a bathhouse on March 16, 17, 20, 23, 24, 30, or 31 could participate in Beginner Battle sessions (these required reservations) or Trial Battle sessions. Beginner Battles comprised a walkthrough demonstration with staff, while Trial Battles were intended for players that did not require assistance. Decks from the Battle Academy kit were loaned to all people taking part. For as long as stocks lasted, participants were given a '''Make Your Pokémon Card Debut! Battle Academy Experience Original Sticker''' (Japanese: '''「ポケカデビューしよう！バトルアカデミー体験会」オリジナルステッカー''') after a session.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20240413094416/https://rakuspa.com/pokemon/ ''ポケモンたちと「かいふく」しよう!'' | Gokurakuyu and RAKU SPA Special Event page (archived)]</ref>

More events began to be held in May 2024, beginning with several ÆON Malls between May 4 and 18. These events were similar to the Gokurakuyu and RAKU SPA Beginner Battles, in that staff would guide participants through games using one of the decks from Anytime, Anywhere Battle Academy products provided by the venue.

==POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE merchandise==
In conjunction with the renovation of SHIBUYA TSUTAYA in Tokyo, operator {{wp|Culture Convenience Club}} partnered with [[The Pokémon Company]] to create a space dedicated to the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. The result was the POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE, a space in the image of an executive lounge with specially made tables and chairs. Opened on April 25, 2024, the lounge offers seating for 82 people (78 on the main floor space and four in a Private Room) and features a subdued color scheme that incorporates {{TCG|Energy}} symbol motifs.

The price for a 60-minute session on the main floor space was ¥1,650 per person; 30-minute extensions could also purchased for ¥660 per person. The Private Room could be hired out for ¥8,250 per hour, with 30-minute extensions costing ¥3,300 each. Three-hour block sessions could also be purchased on the main floor space for ¥3,650 per person; the Private Room could similarly be hired for the same amount of time for ¥18,500. Measures were taken to make players of all levels feel welcome, therefore all items required for conducting games could be rented free of charge, including an array of 60-card standard decks. All POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE patrons were given a random commemorative '''Welcome Card''' (Japanese: '''ウェルカムカード''') that could be used as a deck case divider. Eleven designs were available, each of which featured a different Energy symbol on the front; the reverse included spaces for people to detail the date of their visit, decks used, and their play experience. The lounge also featured a self-service counter that offered free drinks and snacks, a gallery area that displayed six large Pokémon card decorations, and a merchandise area that sold recent TCG products and exclusive POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE-branded items. Entry to the merchandise area was free. The majority of these items used the same Energy symbol motif used throughout the lounge.<ref>[https://shibuyatsutaya.tsite.jp/pokemoncardlounge/ ''SHIBUYA TSUTAYA 5階に特別なポケモンカードゲーム体験ができる公認ラウンジ初出店 POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE'' | SHIBUYA TSUTAYA] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20240428181943/https://shibuyatsutaya.tsite.jp/pokemoncardlounge/ archived])</ref><ref>[https://shibuyatsutaya.tsite.jp/article/193.html ''POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE 取り扱いアイテム'' | SHIBUYA TSUTAYA] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20240618220642/https://shibuyatsutaya.tsite.jp/article/193.html archived])</ref><ref>[https://corporate.pokemon.co.jp/en/topics/detail/122.html ''POKÉMON CARD LOUNGE: A Very Special Place Newly Opened in Shibuya'' | The Pokémon Company Website] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20240719221142/https://corporate.pokemon.co.jp/en/topics/detail/122.html archived])</ref>
